高二年级英语试卷 命题范围：外研版高中英语选修七 考试时间：100分钟 试卷满分：120分 ‎ 本试卷分第I卷（客观题）和第II卷（主观题）两部分 第I卷 第一部分 听力（略）‎ 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和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A Popeye the Sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s.The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach to make him strong. People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many people’s diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.‎ Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.‎ People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.‎ Today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else which the body needs—folic acid. It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.‎ ‎21. A good title for this reading passage is______.‎ A. Popeye the Sailor B. The Truth About Spinach C. Mistake with Numbers D.

I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.‎ ‎ It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie's basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.‎ ‎ "Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint. " She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes (条纹) of colors across the pavement (人行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was wonderful!‎ ‎ The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I ‎ recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn't wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother's face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.‎ ‎ My mother shut the car door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, "What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this! Come inside right now!" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.‎ ‎ "Now go clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement.‎ ‎ Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.‎ ‎25. What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?‎ ‎ A.

Perhaps the drink is not so bad after all.‎ The new study, conducted by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), has been published and suggests that coffee does not have a harmful effect on your health. Researchers suggest, based on data examined, older adults who drink a lot of coffee, have a lower risk of death when compared to their non-drinking coffee peers.‎ The team of researchers conducting the study analyzed data on 400,000 U. S. men and women, aged 50 to 71 years; the individuals had participated in the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study. This study started in 1995-1996 and was tracked until the day a participant passed away, or Dec. 31, 2008.‎ According to a press release on the report, researchers shared that coffee drinkers are “less likely to die from heart disease, respiratory disease, stroke, injuries and accidents, diabetes, and infections, although the association was not seen for cancer.”‎ Results indicated participants that drank three or more cups of java a day reduced their risk of death by 10 percent. Based on the findings that both caffeinated and non-caffeinated coffee found similar results, researchers are thinking caffeine is not the protective ingredient(原料), although which ingredient in coffee might be, they are not sure.‎ Researchers indicate that despite these observational findings, they caution it is not clear whether or not drinking coffee actually extends life expectancy.‎ ‎“Coffee is one of the most widely consumed drinks in America, but the association between coffee consumption and risk of death has been unclear. We found coffee consumption to be associated with lower risk of death overall, and of death from a number of different causes,” said Neal Freedman, Ph. D., Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, NCI.‎ ‎“Although we cannot infer a relationship between coffee drinking and lower risk of death, we believe these results do provide some comfort that coffee drinking does not adversely affect health,” Freedman said.‎ Dr. Cheryl Williams, a registered dietician, told ABC News, “Overall, more research needs to be done to truly understand the compounds in coffee and their biological activity and effect on health,” said Williams.‎ ‎32. The passage is mainly about __________.‎ A. medical benefits of coffee B. benefits of planting coffee C. coffee’s negative effects on health D. new study results on coffee ‎33. We can learn from the passage that __________.‎ A. drinking coffee can help reduce the risk of death from some diseases B. people rely heavily on coffee drinking and that proves to be a problem C. people who often drink coffee are more likely to suffer different diseases D. caffeine is the very ingredient which protects people from developing diseases ‎34.The underlined word “java” in Paragraph 5 refers to __________.‎ A. caffeine B. ingredient C. coffee D. drink ‎35. What can we infer from William’s words?‎ A. People should drink more caffeinated coffee.‎ B. People should analyze the cause of human death.‎ C. People should take advantages of drinking coffee.‎ D. People should carry out more related and effective studies.‎ 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。（注意：请将答案写在答题纸上的相应位置）‎ Your teen is falling asleep in class Teens have a busy morning schedule as they need to wake up and get moving very early in order to catch a bus and get to school by the required time.
