沈阳铁路实验中学2018—2019学年度上学期第二次月考 高二英语 时间：100分钟 满分：120分 本试卷分第I卷（选择题）和第II卷（非选择题）两部分。考试结束，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。‎ 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 Real Simple First Issue: 2000‎ Published: Monthly Real Simple is a lifestyle title owned by Time, Inc. This magazine covers topics from decorating and dieting to childcare and product guides. Like many lifestyle magazines, Real Simple is written with women in mind, but that doesn’t mean men can’t get something out of it! This one is especially good for people who like to organize and simplify their lives. As the title implies, simple, authentic(真实的)living is the magazine’s main theme.‎ Better Homes and Gardens First Issue: 1922‎ Published: Monthly Better Homes and Gardens is a household name when it comes to lifestyle magazines. It’s been around since 1922, so the title has a long history of providing high quality, useful content.‎ ‎ Decorating and gardening, as the title suggests, are common topics in the magazine, but it is also known for its excellent recipes.‎ Woman’s Day First Issue: 1937‎ Published: Monthly If you’re looking for a magazine that combines lifestyle and fashion content, Woman’s Day might be a good choice. It has a readership of over 3 million women across the United States. Some of its unique characteristics include its focus on traditional values and its commitment to giving women realistic advice. Many magazines feature lifestyles that are out of reach for the majority of American families, but Woman’s Day tries to give practical advice and suggestions that its real-world readers can put into practice.‎ Taste of Home First Issue: 1993’‎ Published：Bi-monthly For people who want a magazine that’s entirely about cooking, recipes, nutrition, and other food-related content, Taste of Home has been a popular choice all the time. It has an unusually rich history of giving its readers what they want. The magazine only started including advertisement in 2007, before which it was advertisement-free. Now the magazine is doing pretty well financially(财政上).‎ 1. We can learn from the text that ________.‎ A Real Simple is designed mainly for women ‎ B. all the four magazines are popular around the world. ‎ C. most of the magazines just give practical suggestions. ‎ D. Better Homes and Gardens sells best of the four magazines.‎ 1. If Tom’s mother is interested in fashion, her favorite magazine might be _______.‎ A Real Simple B. Better Homes and Gardens C. Woman’s Day D. Taste of Home 2. What do we know about Taste of Home?‎ A Its popularity has been going down in recent years. B. it offers suggestions about childcare.‎ C. There are no ads in it. D. All of its content is food-related.‎ B Many of us live with a roommate at some stage. Sometimes, there can be problems. Who hasn’t had an argument about whose turn it is to take out the rubbish or who should be the one to clear up after dinner? However, living with another person also comes with many benefits.‎ You know that there’s always someone else around, which can help you feel safer. There is always someone to talk to, so you never feel lonely. Besides these obvious benefits, there are some you may not notice. For example, we’re actually more likely to eat healthier food when living with others.‎ To examine the effect of living alone, Australian university researchers did much research and found that people living alone tended to eat less fresh food, which can have a significant negative effect on long-term health. However, those living with others generally benefited from a more varied diet compared to those living alone.‎ What could explain these findings? The researchers believe the social and cultural roles played by cooking, food preparation and eating may be important considerations. For example, those living with friends have someone else to go shopping with, and thus are likely to buy higher-quality fresh food regularly.‎ Cooking skills may be another factor. If people living alone find they do not have the knowledge required to prepare a particular dish or cook a certain food,they may fall back on ready-made, less healthy food. However, if they live with at least one other person, they may be able to ask for help.‎ In addition, people living alone can eat whatever they want at any time of the day or night. However, it’s helpful to have someone around who questions your decision to eat frozen pizza at 3 am. In other words,‎ ‎ roommates can draw your attention to unhealthy routines.‎ So,if you now live alone and find yourself fighting a losing battle against poor eating habits, why not consider sharing a home with someone else? You could encourage one another on to greater health and well-being.‎ 1. The author uses the first paragraph to ______.‎ A introduce the topic of the text B. remind readers of their roommates ‎ C. show the problems of living with others D. recall the experience of sharing a room 2. The second paragraph is mainly about _______.‎ A The reasons for living with others B. the benefits of having a roommate ‎ C. the way of dealing with a roommate D. the importance of communicating with others 3. The underlined phrase”fall back on” in Paragraph 5 means________.‎ A hunt for B. cut down on C. depend on D. give up 4. What is the main purpose of this text?‎ A To explain why roommate have arguments. B. To tell readers every coin has two sides. ‎ C. To encourage people to have a roommate. D. To persuade people to develop healthy eating habits.‎ C We know that our pet dogs and cats can recognize our faces, but our pet fish? A team of scientists from the UK and Australia have discovered that archer-fish(喷水鱼) can distinguish human faces!‎ This marks the first time that a species of fish has shown such an ability. Such abilities have been previously shown in birds, but unlike fish, they have been proven to possess structures similar to the neocortex(大脑新皮层), the researchers added.‎ ‎“Being able to distinguish between a large number of human faces is a surprisingly difficult task, ” Dr Newport said, “mainly due to the fact that all human faces share the same basic features.”‎ During their experiments, Dr Newport and her colleagues presented archerfish with two images of human faces, and trained them to choose one by spitting jets(喷射流)of water at that picture. Next, the fish were presented with the familiar face and several that were unfamiliar, and were able to correctly pick the one that they had been trained to recognize, even when features such as head shape and color were removed from the selected pictures.‎ In the first experiment, the archerfish were tasked with picking the previously learned face from a group of 44 new ones, which they did with 81 percent accuracy. In the second, the researchers decided to make things a little harder. They took the pictures and made them black and white and evened out (使平均) the head shapes. You would think that would throw the fish for a loop. But no, they were able to pick the familiar face even then—and with more accuracy: 86%!‎ ‎“Fish have a simpler brain than humans and entirely lack the section of the brain that humans use for recognizing faces. Despite this, fish may still be capable of finding the face they are trained to recognize,” Dr Newport said. “The fact that archerfish can learn this task suggests that complicated brains are not necessarily needed to recognize human faces.”‎ 1. What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A Species B. Birds. C. Fish. D. Abilities.‎ 2. The research shows that ________.‎ A archerfish are cleverer than other fishes. ‎ B. all fishes can be trained to recognize human faces. ‎ C. complex brains are not necessary for facial recognition. ‎ D. it is very difficult for animals to recognize human faces.‎ 3. We can infer from the text that ______‎ A archerfish have a good memory. ‎ B. archerfish can only recognize human faces. ‎ C. people’s similar physical appearance limits archerfish’s facial recognition. ‎ D.archerfish can recognize the familiar face even if its head shape and color are changed.‎ 1. The text is most likely to appear in _______.‎ A a biology textbook B. a medical report C. a science fiction D. a science magazine D Two hundred years ago the English poet William Wordsworth wrote “I wander ‘d Lonely as a Cloud”, a poem that expresses a basic spirit of early English Romanticism.‎ What makes this poem an example of Romantic thinking? It isn’t just that Wordsworth chooses to write about natural scene：it is the way he describes the scene as if it had human emotions. For him, nature is not only a neutral (无感情色彩的) mixture of scenery, colours, plants, rocks, soil, water and air. It is a living force that feels joy and sadness, shares human pain and even tries to educate us human beings by showing us the beauty of life.‎ Wordsworth’s home, Dove Cottage, is now one of the most popular destinations in the Lake District. You can go on a tour of the garden which William planted with wild flowers and which survived in his backyard even after they disappeared from the area “He always said that if he hadn’t been a poet, he would have been a wonderful scenery gardener,” says Allan King of the Wordsworth Trust.‎ The place near Ullswater, where Wordsworth saw the daffodils(水仙花), is at the southernmost end of the lake. The lake is wide and calm at this turning point. There’s a bay where the trees have had their soil eroded(侵蚀)by lake water so that their roots are shockingly exposed. You walk along from tree to tree, hardly daring to breathe, because you are walking in the footprints of William from two centuries ago. The first group of daffodils appear, but they aren’t tall yellow trumpets(小号状的花)proudly swinging in the gentle wind. They’re tiny wild daffodils, most of them still green and unopened, in groups of six or seven. They’re grouped around individual trees rather than collecting together.‎ But as you look north, from beside a huge ancient oak, you realize this is what delighted Wordsworth:group after group of the things, spread out to left and right but coming together in your sight so that they form a beautiful, pale-yellow carpet. What you’re seeing at last is nature transformed by human ‎ sight and imagination.‎ 1. What was Wordsworth’s attitude to nature?‎ A Nature had a character of its own. B. Nature could talk to people. ‎ C. Man could influence nature. D. Nature was human-like.‎ 2. We can learn from the text that Dove Cottage______.‎ A has gardens designed by a scenery gardener B. has a wide range of flowers in its garden ‎ C. receives a lot of visitors every year D. is famous for an actor 3. In what way is the scene at the southernmost end of the lake different from Wordsworth’s description?‎ A The daffodils are fewer and smaller. B. All the daffodils are green and small. ‎ C. There are no daffodils around trees. D. There are no daffodils by the lake.‎ 4. The writer implies that the poem describes ______.‎ A exactly what Wordsworth saw in detail B. the effect the daffodils had on Wordsworth ‎ C. what Wordsworth saw around an ancient oak D. groups of daffodils on the left and on the right 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。选项中的两项为多途选项。（注：选E 涂AB ； 选F涂AC； 选G涂AD）‎ About a year ago, I had a terribly hurtful experience where a close friend spread untruths(谎言) about me. Because I value my friendships so highly, when a friend hurts my feelings, it cuts me deeply. Perhaps it’s unfair for me to hold my friends to the same standard I set for myself as a friend. 16 ‎ u Be honest with yourself.‎ Often times, hurtful behaviour starts off with a small thing that you forgive quickly. You love your friend and believe she’d never hurt you on purpose. 17 And slowly you realize your friend may not be the person you thought she was when you first met her. Being honest with your own feelings will help ‎ you be honest and open with her.‎ u ‎ 18 ‎ As the situation unfolded(发展), I learned more about what she’d said and done. Thankfully, my cooler head won, and I realized her actions actually had nothing to do with me. I chose to let the anger go and move on with my life.‎ u Walk away and don’t look back.‎ Making the decision to leave a friendship can sometimes feel as hard as deciding to leave your marriage. 19 But when that hole is open, you will soon realize that your close, real friends will close it quickly. I chose to walk away from a harmful friendship. 20 Certainly I don’t miss the hurt and pain she brought to my heart. It’s her loss, really, because I am a good friend.‎ A. Let the anger go.‎ B. And I don’t regret it for a minute.‎ C. Expect the same from your friends.‎ D. But over time, you see a pattern of behaviour.‎ E. A friend who has been in you life will leave a big hole.‎ F. Once a friend hurts my feelings or breaks my trust, my heart will be broken.‎ G. But what do you do when friends go against you to the point where you’re so hurt?‎ 第二部分: 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。‎ In 2003 I started my work at my local animal shelter’s Adoption Department.

We had all thought that Tabby would 26 the rest of her life at the shelter.‎ One day a woman named Loretta came to the shelter. Her son, Gary, had 27 Tabby’s picture and stories on the shelter’s website. They were 28 in meeting her! It was the only 29 we ever received about Tabby. What could a young child 30 see in a 14-year-old dog who was both blind and deaf? Most boys would want a dog who could grow with him and 31 through grassy fields on summer days. Tabby would 32 be able to do that. But after meeting her, Loretta and Gary decided that she was the right dog for their family. They adopted Tabby!‎ If Tabby’s story had simply ended with her 33 adoption, it would still have been something very 34 indeed. However, it was what happened after her adoption that some might label as “magical”. Gary 35 from seizures(癫痫). As Gary and Tabby bonded they became 36 . They did everything together. They became so “intune” with one another that Tabby began to telegraph Gary’s seizures 37 they occurred, giving his family warning that one was about to strike. What’s more, Gary seemed to be having fewer and fewer seizures since Tabby’s 38 .‎ How could it be? Nobody could explain 39 Tabby did it. But those of us who were 40 enough to know her and her family had seen a real miracle(奇迹), the kind that has its roots in love.‎ 21. A broke B blocked C passed D approached ‎ 22.
