‎2018-2019学年甘肃省武威市第六中学高一下学期第三次学段考试英语试题 第一部分 阅读理解（共三节，满分70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 Animal moms are great moms. You might be surprised at some of these moms.‎ Octopuses (章鱼)‎ The mother octopus lays about 50,000 eggs. For about 300 days, she stays with the eggs, cleans them and protects them. She does not leave to feed. However, this animal mom dies as soon as the eggs are hatched (孵化). ‎ Crocodiles A crocodile mother puts a lot of time and effort into raising her babies. She starts by building a nest (巢), which she guards for over two months! When the eggs are ready to hatch, the young crocs call out to their mother, who digs them out and helps them hatch. She then carries them in her mouth down to the water, where she will guard them for several more weeks or months until they learn to hunt on their own.‎ Bats ‎ Bats become moms by hanging head up in a cave, giving birth. Catching the youngster before it can fall to the ground below, she puts it in a pouch (育儿袋). Bat moms may carry babies with them when feeding for the first few days. As the little bats get bigger and heavier, moms help them hang on the wall of their caves and return often to feed them. It continues for about three weeks, until the babies are grown up and able to fly on their own.‎ Koalas (考拉)‎ The animal mom gives birth after a pregnancy (怀孕期) of only 35 days. The hairless baby climbs into its mother’s pouch and lives there for another five months. When the little koala is ‎ between five and eight months old, it leaves the pouch for short periods of time but returns for safety. Once it is too big to return to the pouch, it will climb onto its mother’s back and ride there until it is about 12 months old.‎ ‎1 Which animal moms die when their babies are born?‎ A. Octopuses. B. Crocodiles. C. Bats. D. Koalas.‎ ‎2. A crocodile mother usually carries her baby to the water _____.‎ A. in her mouth B. on her back C. in her pouch D. by her tail ‎3. A bat mom _____. ‎ A. gives birth by lying in the nest B. gives birth by hanging in a cave ‎ C. leaves its babies in the pouch for months D. lets its babies live on their own after birth B It’s a sure sign that summer is over and winter is on the way — leaves that were once deep green turn red, yellow and bright orange. It happens every autumn. But did you ever wonder why?‎ The leaves start changing color when the nights start getting longer and the temperature starts getting cooler. Some scientists think that as the number of daylight hours shrinks, the leaves stop making chlorophyll（叶绿素）which makes plants green. The reason is that the process of making chlorophyll requires sunlight. But according to horticulture (园艺) educator Susan Rose from Colorado State University, it turns out leaves don’t really change color at all. “The fall colors are actually there all along,” she said. “But they are covered by the green chlorophyll. As the chlorophyll stops being produced, the other colors can shine through.”‎ ‎ The kind of color that the leaves are going to change to is determined by the plant’s genetic (基因的) background. In some places, the leaves start changing color in September — before autumn even officially begins. In other places, they don’t change until late October or even November. Some scientists say the leaves have been changing color later than usual in recent years. And they think global warming has something to do with that.‎ ‎ In one study, researchers found that the growing season in the Northern Hemisphere was nearly a week longer, on average, in 2008 than it was in 1982. And a professor from Harvard University found that the leaves, west of Boston, Massachusetts, are changing color about three days later than they used to. However, other scientists disagree with the global warming theory.‎ ‎ Susan Rose said the leaves in her part of Colorado are changing “right on schedule.” But the leaves in other parts of that state are running a little late. “The lateness in the mountains may have something to do with the really warm late summer and early fall,” she said. “But I’m afraid that’s just a guess.”‎ ‎4. According to Susan Rose, _____.‎ A. the fall colors are always in leaves ‎ B. leaves make chlorophyll all the seasons C. leaves’ changing color have nothing to with the weather D. leaves begin changing color because they start making chlorophyll ‎5 The underlined word “shrinks” in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by _____.‎ A. reduces B. increases C. lasts D. appears ‎6 Scientists guess leaves change color later than usual probably as a result of _____.‎ A. genetic background B. dry weather C. global warming D. low temperature ‎7. The purpose of the last paragraph is to tell readers _____.‎ A. why leaves change color at fall ‎ B. leaves change color at different time C. the effects of the global warming on plants D. different opinions on the lateness of leaves’ changing color C More than 10,000 people were made homeless in Ternang when the Sungai Mas overflowed its banks yesterday after six days of continuous heavy rain.‎ The wooden bridge across the river has been washed away. The town is cut off by flood waters. At the fifth mile, Jalan Tengkn, the water is two meters deep. It is closed to all traffic. Flooding first happened at mid-afternoon yesterday along the river banks. People trying to get to higher ground were just in time to escape the destroying of the flood. Most of the flood victims(受害者) had to leave all their things behind.‎ The National Flood Relief(救济) Center was reported to give its help and by early evening the whole town was moved out, helped by the army, police, Red Cross Society and volunteers.‎ The flood victims are now housed in different simple relief centers in the nearby town of Ternang. “Everything possible is being done to help the unlucky people,” a government ‎ spokesman said, “In fact, money, food and clothing have begun to come in from public organizations and helpful people. A Disaster Relief Fund（救灾基金会）will be started as soon as possible.”‎ According to the latest reports it is still raining heavily at Ternang. The whole town is expected to be wholly covered by the water. So far no deaths have been reported. ‎8. Based on the contents, this passage is probably taken from ______.‎ A. a storybook              B. a textbook         C. a magazine        D. a newspaper ‎9. The reason why there came such a big flood there is that ______.‎ A. the banks on both sides were too low      B. the river was too narrow and shallow ‎ C. they had had rainy days for some time    D. the wooden bridge across the river was broken ‎ ‎10. From the passage we know that ______.‎ A. though the town was flooded, you could still go there by bus B. the flood hasn't brought a large loss to the town as nobody died in the flood ‎ C. as soon as the water flowed over the banks, people began to go to higher lands ‎ D. the government and the whole society are taking great care of the flood victims ‎11. What is the best title for this passage?‎ A. A Big Flood                                              B. Ternang Is in Danger C. Over 10,000 People Are Homeless           D. Great Help Is Needed D Every week in China, millions of people will sit in front of their TVs watching teenagers compete for the title Character Hero, which is a Chinese-style spelling bee(拼写大赛). In this challenge, young competitors must write Chinese characters by hand. To prepare for the competition, the competitors usually spend months studying dictionaries.‎ Perhaps the show’s popularity should not be a surprise. Along with gunpowder and paper, many Chinese people consider the creation of Chinese calligraphy(书法)to be one of their primary contributions to civilization. Unfortunately, all over the country, Chinese people are forgetting how to write their own language without computerized help. Software on smart phones and computers allows users to type in the basic sound of the word using the Latin alphabet. The correct character is chosen from a list. The result? It’s possible to recognize ‎ characters without remembering how to write them.‎ But there’s still hope for the paint brush. China’s Education Ministry wants children to spend more time learning how to write.‎ In one Beijing primary school we visited, students practice calligraphy every day inside a specially decorated classroom with traditional Chinese paintings hanging on the walls. Soft music plays as a group of six-year-olds dip brush pens into black ink. They look up at the blackboard often to study their teacher’s examples before carefully attempting to reproduce those characters on thin rice paper. “If adults can survive without using handwriting, why bother to teach it now?” we ask the calligraphy teacher, Shen Bin. “The ability to write characters is part of Chinese tradition and culture,” she reasons. “Students must learn now so they don’t forget when they grow up.” says the teacher.‎ ‎12. Which of the following is closest in the meaning with the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?‎ ‎ A. Ever Chinese can write Chinese characters easily, especially with computers ‎ B. Only with the help of computers can some Chinese people write Chinese characters ‎ C. Despite the help of computers, Chinese people have forgotten how to write ‎ D. Computers are the only means to rely on to write Chinese characters for many people ‎13. What can we learn about the Character Hero?‎ A. It’s open to people of all ages and all walks.‎ B. It’s the most-viewed TV programs in China.‎ C. It aims to spread Chinese culture to the world.‎ D. It draws great public attention across the country.‎ ‎14. Why are Chinese people forgetting how to write the characters?‎ A. Chinese people don’t refer to dictionaries very often.‎ B. Chinese people no longer use brush pens or practice calligraphy.‎ C. Chinese people are using the Latin alphabet instead of the characters.‎ D. Chinese people needn’t write by hand as often with the help of technology.‎ ‎15. According to Shen Bin, being able to write characters by hand is__________.‎ ‎ A. necessary for adults to survive in China ‎ B. a requirement made by the Education Ministry ‎ C. helpful to keep Chinese tradition and culture alive ‎ D. an ability to be developed only when you are students 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。‎ As we know, everyone can make mistakes, but don’t worry about it.
