2018-2019学年陕西省白水中学高二上学期第二次月考英语试题（Word版）

白水中学2020届高二级上学期第二次教学质量检测 英语试卷 注意：分数150分 时间120分钟 ‎ ‎ 第二部分 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、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A My house is made out of wood, glass and stone. It is also made out of software.‎ If you come to visit, you may be surprised when you come in. Someone will give you an electronic PIN （个人身份号码）to wear. This PIN tells the house who and where you are. The house uses this information to give you what you need. When it’s dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, and then turns them off as you walk away from them. Music moves with you too. If the house knows your favorite music, it plays it. The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact ,other people in the house hear different music or no music. If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings.‎ Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want something. There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you.‎ The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact like many things we have today. If you want to go to a movie, you need a ticket. If I give you my car keys, you can use my car. The car works for you because you have the keys. My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.‎ I believe that ten years from now, most new homes will have the systems that I’ve put in my house. Maybe the systems will be even bigger and better than the ones I’ve put in today. I like to try new ideas. I know that some of my ideas will work better than others. But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and instead ask myself, “How will I live without them?”‎ ‎21.What does the passage mainly discuss?‎ A. How to develop a new system.       B. The function of the PIN.‎ C.  Easy life in the future.                 D. A home for the future. ‎ ‎22.What’s the purpose when the writer wrote the fourth paragraph?‎ A. To explain more easily what the functions of thePIN and the console are. ‎ B. To let readers know how special his house is.‎ C. To explain the importance of the PIN and theconsole.‎ D. To let readers know why his ideas are new.‎ ‎23.What is the writer most likely to be according to the passage?‎ A.  A famous doctor.                     B. An IT expert.  ‎ C. An idealist                               D.An experienced teacher.‎ B If you want to be a volunteer, you have to answer the following typical questions. Do you want to work with people, animals or machines? Do you want to work indoors or outdoors, directly serve people in need or serve people behind the scenes? Every year, thousands of people in the west offer volunteer service. Volunteering greatly strengthens the community because it helps the old, the young, the weak, the sick, and the disabled and the injured to solve problems.‎ Volunteers usually help in many different ways. They may give people advice, offer friendship to the young, drive the elderly to church (if up to the driving age), advise kids against drugs, work as assistants in schools or nursing homes, raise funds, plant trees, help out in local libraries and do many other things. Volunteering can be a few hours a week or a few hours a month. Anybody who wants to serve people in need can become a volunteer.‎ In fact, the art of volunteering is a process of both giving and receiving. Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people, make new friends and mix with people from all walks of life. Volunteering is an excellent way to experiment and try out new techniques and skills, discover your individual talents and explore career choice. Being a volunteer will take you on a wonderful journey and help you learn more than what you can get from books.‎ ‎24.

There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard work.‎ But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them. Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.‎ Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone ‎ asked him what ideas he had about life. “Work,” he answered. “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.‎ ‎28.
