黑龙江省哈尔滨师范大学附属中学2021届高三英语上学期期中试题（Word版附答案）

Page 1 哈师大附中 2018 级高三学年上学期期中试题 英 语 试 卷 2020.11 (满分 150 分 时间 120 分钟) 第 I 卷 第一部分：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 If you’re new to San Francisco, paying the city a visit, or simply looking for a new playground for you and your dog, here are four of the finest dog parks in San Francisco. ＊Corona Heights Dog Park Often visited by residents from all over the city because of its nearness to the Randall Museum, Corona Heights Dog Park offers pets and owners breathtaking view after a steep hillside climb, and a fenced dog area that allows dogs to let loose without a leash（狗链）. Owners will also enjoy the playground, tennis courts and basketball courts. ＊Dolores Dog Park The grounds of Dolores Park once served as camps for those who were left homeless by the 1906 earthquake, but now are often visited by crowds of Mission District people. Four-legged friends can also wander about carefree off-leash while making friends with other members of the doggie community. ＊Pine Lake Dog Park Famous for its place as a rest stop for hundreds of species of birds to fly to and from warmer climates, Pine Lake Park is also prized by city dogs and their owners for their nice hiking paths, picturesque lake suited for swimming, and off-leash area on the park’s west end that lets dogs run free. ＊Buena Vista Dog Park With a history of 146 years, Buena Vista Park is San Francisco’s oldest park. Dogs and owners with plus energy will love burning it on this park’s steep paths and winding staircases. Dog owners should have good control over their dogs, as it’s quite easy for dogs to get separated when going through Buena Vista’s many twists and turns. 1. Why do dog owners take their pets to Dolores Dog Park? A. To let them socialize. B. To give them rescue lessons. C. To help them lose weight. D. To increase their physical activities. 2. Which dog park is popular with bird lovers? A. Dolores Dog Park. B. Pine Lake Dog Park. C. Buena Vista Dog Park. D. Corona Heights Dog Park. 3. What is special about Buena Vista Dog Park? A. Dogs can go climbing. B. It is close to a museum. C. Dogs must be on a leash. D. It is suitable for swimming. B Quietly sitting there reading, I found myself suddenly listening to the train guard’s announcements. Train travelers will surely agree that when the guard makes an announcement, whether it’s the recorded message or the guard’s message, few people listen to it, because it’s often quite dull or hard to understand. This one was different. I noticed that other passengers appeared to be listening, too. Not only that, everyone was smiling! Why was so much attention being paid to this message? As best I can recall, the guard said these lines, “Good Morning Ladies, Gentlemen and Children, this is the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith to Central and you’ll be pleased to know that we are right on time. And what a lovely morning it is in Sydney today. The sun is shining, birds are singing, and all’s right with the world. I trust you have a great day wherever you’re going. Thanks for catching my train this morning and I hope to see you again soon.” Quite a few people (obviously previous passengers) started talking to one another about the guard’s excellent message and how good it had made everyone feel. I started thinking about this, and then I found the young guard and said “Were you the guard on the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith?” The guard seemed a bit stunned at first, replying, “Yes, yes.” “Well, I really appreciate your announcement. Thank you for your extremely good message, which gave me and the other passengers such a good start to the day. Please keep doing it.” I said. There are two messages for me in what happened that day. Firstly, when people are happy in their work it shows in what they do and say. Secondly, the story attaches much importance to the benefits that accumulate from thanking people for something they’ve done, particularly when it’s not expected. Can you imagine the conversation that guard would have when he got home? 4. Why do few train travelers listen to the announcements? A. The messages are unattractive. B. The guard’s voice is not clear. C. They usually feel sleepy. D. They are absorbed in books. 5. What does the underlined word “stunned” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Patient. B. Cautious. C. Surprised. D. Excited. 6. What might the guard talk about with his family when he got home? A. The beautiful weather. B. The recorded message. C. The train from Penrith. D. The unexpected appreciation. 7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. An Intelligent Guard. B. A Boring Train Story. C. A Different Train Announcement. D. A Lovely Morning in Sydney. Page 2 C Every year, thousands of new high school graduates pack their bags, move to new cities, and sign papers accepting loans, the money borrowed from a bank or lenders etc., which they might not be able to pay back. Without proper education on personal finance, especially as it relates to paying for college, young adults are guided into improper loan plans that result in years of debt after graduation. In order to set students up to succeed financially, it is important to educate students and parents on their financial options before school in the fall. The best way to support families heading for college is to require that every high school student take a personal finance class before graduation. This will help smooth the transition into adulthood. The average student takes out at least one loan to cover the costs of their education each year. In 2014 the average student graduating from college carried a negative balance of about $20,000 in debt, which often spread over multiple lenders. Upon graduation, students rarely know exactly how much money they owe, and even though they are in the state of being unable to pay their debts, they cannot wipe out student loans. These students spend much of their adult lives paying off the gradual increasing debts. A personal finance course would teach students how to manage their income and expenses, while helping to significantly reduce the amount of debt students carry into adulthood. By teaching students how to save money and live within their means, this course will provide the next generation with a foundation to progress financially. Students choosing to get a job straight out of high school would also benefit from finance education for these very reasons. With education on how to manage their finances, all young people will have the knowledge to make healthy decisions, leading them to improve good credit and purchase needed items like cars and homes with skill and confidence. While not every young person makes financial mistakes, those who do can face years of difficulty trying to get their finances back under control. Rather than help them through these hard times when they happen, we should try to prevent them from happening at all. Making the completion of personal finance coursework a requirement for graduation would ensure that young people are at least aware of the basics of preserving a financial stability. 8. After graduation from college, many young people . A. struggle to support their families B. spend years paying off their debts C. get through the hard times smoothly D. are able to manage their own finances well 9. What is the third paragraph mainly about? A. Advantages of taking a finance course. B. Ways to improve financial credits. C. Skills of balancing income and expenses. D. Introduction to the education on personal finance. 10. Having financial knowledge, high school students are probably able to . A. smooth their way for college B. get out of their financial trap C. free from the cost of their college education D. avoid the risk of the future financial trouble 11. The main purpose of the passage is to . A. inform and explain B. argue and persuade C. analyze and evaluate D. discuss and examine D Mario Cohn-Haft remembers the sinking feeling he had when he realised the parrot he had come to see would probably not appear before him again. He had taken a bird-watching tour to the area where the very last wild Spix’s macaw(金刚鹦鹉), a blue parrot native to Brazil, was known to show itself. But that tour was the first he had led that couldn’t spot it. “I was one of the first people to experience it being extinct in the wild,” says Cohn-Haft, an ornithologist (鸟类学家). That was 20 years ago. No wild Spix’s macaws have been seen since. But today there is hope. Spix’s macaws still exist. A small number of breeding pairs are currently living in captivity ( 圈 养 ). Conservationists are in the middle of a project to raise healthy birds and prepare them for release into the wild. The Association for the Conservation of Threatened Parrots (ACTP) is leading current efforts. Cromwell Purchase, a director at the ACTP, explains that the group plans to send 50 Spix’s macaws to rehabilitation facilities in Brazil, which are currently under construction. If all goes well, the birds will be shipped from Germany soon. The conservation team will first practice a technique for releasing the birds on a small flock of Illiger’s macaws. Then, in 2021, the Spix’s will be released with a small group of the Illiger’s, which will hopefully help them to adapt to the forest of Caatinga. The real test will be whether the birds take to their native surroundings and whether they successfully breed and raise chicks in the wild. But Brazil wants the plan to work. “We know how to reintroduce parrots. There are now many publications and case studies that show we can get birds out into the wild and have them survive,” says Don Brightsmith, an expert in parrots. Brightsmith notes one important point — the birds must be shown how to raise chicks independently. Otherwise, any reintroduced population will quicklycollapse. Happily, Purchase says this is something he and his colleagues are working on. Should the birds flourish, the blue flash of a Spix’s wings might one day be seen again by locals and, perhaps, fascinated groups of bird- watchers. 12. What do we know about Cohn-Haft’s bird-watching tour 20 years ago? A. It turned out to be fruitless. B. It was his last bird-watching tour. C. It inspired him to study the Spix’s macaw. D. It allowed him to spot the last wild Spix’s macaw. 13. Which of the following is most likely to take place in 2021? A. Some Spix’s macaws being sent to their natural habitat. B. Some Spix’s macaws and Illiger’s macaws being crossbred. C. Some new Spix’s macaw rehabilitation facilities being built. D. Some breeding Spix’s macaws being imported from Germany. 14. Which word can best describe Brightsmith’s tone of speech? A. Cautious. B. Confused. C. Confident. D.Concerned. 15. What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Case-studying wild Spix’s macaws. B. Enabling Spix’s macaws to fly again. C. Increasing the population of Spix’s macaws. D. Training adult Spix’s macaws to be qualified parents. Page 3 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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The idea that history is an outdated course of study that will lead to limited career options has spread. 16 It is a wonderful way to prepare for a successful future. Here are a few reasons why it’s important that today’s students continue to learn about the past. Understanding where people come from is key in understanding who we are. 17 It’s deeply influenced the world and its citizens. For this reason, it’s important to understand history in order to understand why people are the way that they are. 18 Through history classes, you can experience a change in the way you think. You’ll look at things from a new angle, as you understand the world in a new way. In the end, this change can improve your ability to assess and understand situations, make educated decisions, and learn how to weigh the consequences linked with each choice before you. Learning from the past prevents future mistakes. 19 From wars to fashion to political trends, historians are often able to make predictions about the future based upon the past. By having a firm grasp on what happened in the past, today’s generation can better prepare for a brighter future by making the right decisions — instead of repeating old mistakes. 20 The idea that a degree in history can’t lead to a good career is untrue. In fact, students who graduate with degrees in history can become lawyers, business owners, foundation leaders, and non-profit leaders. Besides, history degrees can lead to working as an educator, a leader in a historical organization, a writer, an editor, a journalist, or a producer of multimedia materials. A. You will understand the world much better. B. History degrees can lead to well-paying careers. C. Many people don’t know well about themselves. D. Learning history can change how you think. E. But the truth is that studying history is still important. F. The idea that history repeats itself is rooted in truth. G. History has shaped cultures, attitudes, and social structures. 第三部分：英语知识运用（共三节，满分 75 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。 I played a racquetball game against my cousin Ed last week.
