Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes , roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane. Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but ‎ understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors are served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.‎ Fiery Foods Festival—The Hottest Festival on Earth Every year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction—food that is not just spicy ,but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Eood and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three clays every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper—officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure—if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you!‎ La Tomatina—The World's Biggest Food Fight On the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts Ea Tomatina—the world's largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes—official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.‎ The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again—and for a much-needed wash!‎ ‎21.In the Stilton cheese rolling competition, competitors on each team must .‎ A. wear various formal clothes B. roll a wooden cheese in their own lane C. kick or throw their cheese D. use a real cheese weighing about four kilos ‎22. The celebration of La Tomatina lasts .‎ A. three days    B. seven days C. less than three days    D. more than seven days ‎23.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A. The chief prize for the Stilton cheese rolling competition is beer or port wine.‎ B.More than 10,000 Chinese take pail in the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival.‎ C. Thousands of spicy foods are on show in the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival.‎ D. An exciting tomato battle takes place at the beginning of La Tomatina.‎ ‎ ‎ B Tenzing left his home when he was ten to work and help his mother, who was looking after their 2-acre ancestral farm after his father’s death. He did temporary jobs for the first few years and then joined a Malaysian construction firm, where he learnt to drive, repair machines, work on the Internet and even speak English fluently.‎ ‎“In those 13 years, I learnt everything—driving, mechanic work, and how to set up a small factory. This made me gain much confidence to do almost all jobs,” says Tenzing.‎ However, as his mother was getting older, on December 12, 2006, Tenzing returned to his hometown in Assam. Having visited several farms, he came to know that tea could be easily exported and many tea companies were buying tea; so he also decided to grow tea on his farm. But as his family had never grown tea, he had no idea how to do it.‎ Being a green hand in this field, Tenzing went to meet with many tea experts and followed their instructions. But whenever he sprayed pesticide (农药）on his farm, he’d get a headache and feel indisposed. So he started looking for alternatives. Tenzing did his research online and finally in 2007, he connected with people from a Canadian non-governmental organization and invited them to his farm, where they trained him. Thus, Tenzing started growing tea organically.‎ Today Tenzing has 25 acres of land, of which 7.5 acres is used for tea planting, and he grows almost all types of fruits and vegetables. His success inspired many, and farmers from other parts of the country also started coming to his farm to learn organic farming. He has trained about 30,000 farmers so far. Every year almost 100 tourists visit his farm from various parts of the world like the UK, Australia, Germany, etc.‎ ‎24. What can we know about Tenzing?‎ A. He was mistreated at a young age. B. He lived a happy childhood.‎ C. He had great learning ability. D. He received much formal education.‎ ‎25. Why did Tenzing want to grow tea on his farm?‎ A. His mother was getting older. B. Tea sold very well at that time. ‎ C. His land was best for tea growth. D. He was tired of temporary jobs.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “indisposed” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?‎ A. Unfair. B. Motivated C. Touched. D. Uncomfortable.‎ ‎27. What can be inferred about Tenzing’s farm according to the last paragraph?‎ A. It has been the biggest one around. ‎ B. It is famous nationally and globally.‎ C. It is made use of mostly to grow tea. ‎ D. It has become a hot tourist attraction.‎ C For many, music is as important to the human experience as eating and breathing. We hear music everywhere—at home, the gym, parties and stores. But what kind of music do we prefer to listen to, and when and why do our musical preferences change?‎ The relationship between the change of seasons and musical preferences was the focus of a study led by psychologist Terry Pettijohn. He and his team based their research on a previous study that examined the relationship between popular music preferences and the Environmental Security Hypothesis(假设). The results showed that over time, when social and financial conditions were more risky, the songs of the year that were slower, longer, more comforting and serious were most popular. And during periods in which social and financial conditions were generally stable, the result was opposite.‎ Building on these findings, Pettijohn and his team wondered if the Hypothesis could also be applied to the change of seasons. For college students, the participants in this study, autumn begins at the start of the school year. Gone are the carefree days of summer, when school is out. Winter means colder temperatures, shorter days, and, in many places in the country, snow. Spring, however, is a different story. It represents a fresh start and when clocks spring forward, we gain an extra hour of daylight. As students walk into summer, they’re absorbed in the sunshine and social activities—‎ and enjoy a break from school.‎ But do changing seasonal conditions influence musical preferences? To answer this question, the researchers designed two studies. What did they find? Both groups of college students favored more serious music during the seasons of fall and winter, and more active and energetic music during the spring and summer seasons. And these findings, Pettijohn argues, have practical significances.‎ ‎28. The purpose of the question raised in Paragraph 1 is to ________.‎ A. present a different opinion on music B. prove where to listen to music matters C. stress the importance of music to humans D. introduce the topic on musical preferences ‎29. What influences a person’s choice of music types according to the previous study?‎ A. Whether one has enough free time. ‎ B. Whether one lives in a stable situation.‎ C. Whether one is exposed to sunlight. ‎ D. Whether one chooses to change his life.‎ ‎30. How does Pettijohn feel about the findings of his studies?‎ A. It’s unexpected. B. It’s humorous. ‎ C. It’s discouraging. D. It’s significant.‎ 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。‎ Many cosplay activities are being organized in China, making the subculture popular among some youths. Cosplay means costume play, in which participants wear costumes and fashion accessories (配饰) to represent a specific character. ‎ What’s the reason why youths are interested in cosplay? 31 Cosplay participants often interact with each other to dress up as characters from animes (动漫), cartoons, comic books, films, TV programs and video games. Youths who love cosplay have their own sets of jokes, which “outsiders” rarely understand. 32 ‎ Cosplayers are almost always young, most of them under 25, and as they grow older, they tend to give up the practice. 33 Instead, they should treat such youngsters as normal youths, but at the same time warn them never to cross the social and moral boundaries.‎ The cosplay subculture is a kind of performing arts. Cosplayers usually get the costumes in these ways. First, through some companies that make and sell packaged suits for cosplay. Second, through some individuals that make costumes and accessories. 34 ‎ With capital flowing into the ACG (二次元) industry, more specific and mature business models help the industry develop further. 35 Since then the domestic animation and game industry has been developing healthily with a stronger sense of using legal products. China’s ACG industry is likely to see higher growth in 2019.‎ A. Based on a research, 2015 proved to be a turning point.‎ B. The cosplay industry is expected to witness more success.‎ C. Therefore, there is no need for parents to overreact to cosplay.‎ D. So regulators should strictly monitor such events to prevent improper behaviors.‎ E. And besides, by making them themselves.‎ F. That’s because it’s a way for youths to express virtual love.‎ G. Perhaps that’s why some people dislike them.‎ 第三部分 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，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ As I sat motionless on the steps of the pool, watching everyone else swim back and forth, I realized that I had spent most of my life watching others enjoy themselves.

When walking she looks up, down, or sideways, never where she’s going. One day, she spotted, partly covered by leaves and litter, a $ 100 bill. She looked to see if anyone was watching and bent down to crumple (揉捏) the bill in her tiny hand. Sliding it into her jacket pocket, she took another guilty look around and then hurried off to school.‎ ‎　　Her day was spent watching her jacket hung on the wall by the door. During lunch, she took it off and ran to the far side of the playground to pull out the crumpled bill and stare at it and see that it was real and now belonged to her. When some older kids wandered by, she put it back into her pocket quickly and rushed back into the school.‎ ‎　　It wasn’t until she was riding home on the school bus that she started to wonder about who the bill had belonged to before it came to be hers. “Probably somebody rich”, she thought. “Why else would they be so careless with $ 100 bills?”‎ ‎　　She imagined a tall man in a fine wool jacket walking to his big car and pulling out a roll of money, not noticing as one bill drifted(飘落) to the ground. Putting the roll back in his pocket, he climbed into his car and drove away. Just then, a wind blew some leaves to cover most of the lost bill.‎ ‎　　But, then she thought, what if the bill had been a present for his little niece living with her grandma because her parents were killed in a car crash. She’d have treasured that $ 100 because it came from her generous uncle. And she’d be dreaming, even now if she hadn’t realized she’d lost it, of all the toys and treats that the bill could buy. She could use it to buy a present for her grandmother. She would be heartbroken to find she’d lost that $ 100.‎ Paragraph 1 Walking slowly towards her house, she debated whether to tell her mom of her new一found treasure.‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2 The next day was Saturday and and her mom arrived at the local supermarket early.___‎ ‎______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎ 高二英语答案 第一部分听力 每小题1.5分，共30分 ‎1-5 CABCB 6-10 ABCBC 11-15BACCA 16-20 BAABC 第二部分阅读理解，共两节，满分35分 第一节 ‎ 共10小题，每题2.5分，共计25分 ‎21-25 BBCCB 26-30 DBDBD 第二节 ‎ 共5小题，每题2分， 共计10分 ‎31-35 FGCEA 第三部分 英语知识运用， 共两节，满分45分 第一节完形填空，每小题1.5分，共30分 ‎36-40 CBADA 41-45 DBABC 46-50 AADDB 51-55 DBCCA 第二节语法填空，没小题1,5分，共15分 ‎56. stages 57. their 58.
