‎2018-2019学年度上学期省六校协作体高二期初考试 英语试题 ‎ ‎ 第Ⅰ卷 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分）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 What makes a building ugly? Everyone's got their own opinion, so it’s hard to say. Now, let’s take a look at some of the world’s worst buildings.‎ The Torre Velasca The Tone Velasca in Milan is in the centre of Milan (Italy). The tower, which went up in the 1950s, is about 100 metres tall. Its design is actually a modern representation of a traditional Lombard castle, where the lower parts were narrower(狭窄的) than the upper parts.‎ The Mirador Building The Mirador Building in Madrid (Spain) was created by Dutch studio MVRDV and the Spanish architect Blanca Lleo. The building, which is a block of flats, opened in 2005. There is a large rectangular(矩形的) hole in the upper part of it, which is used by the neighbourhood as a meeting area and playground.‎ The Prague TV Tower The Prague TV Tower is in Prague (the capital of the Czech Republic). It stands 216 metres high and looks a bit like a tall, thin space ship. Prague is famous for its architectural beauty, so when the tower was put up in 1985 by architect Vaclav Aulicky and engineer Jiri Kozak, many felt it didn’t fit in.‎ The Longaberger Basket Company The Longaberger Basket Company building is in Newark, Ohio (USA). The office block ‎ was opened in 1997 and looks like a very large basket. It’s got seven floors and two handles at the top. The handles weigh about 150 tons. It may not be the ugliest building in the world but it’s certainly one of the most unusual.‎ ‎1. According to the text, the Torre Velasca _________.‎ A. is similar to a Lombard castle B. was created by Blanca Lleo C. has a history of over 100 years D. is taller than the Prague TV Tower ‎2. Which of the following buildings might be the Mirador Building?‎ A. B. ‎ C. D. ‎ ‎3. When the Prague TV tower was put up, many people ________.‎ A. liked it very much B. thought little of it C. felt that it might fall down easily D. thought that it was totally useless ‎【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文。是什么让一栋建筑变得丑陋？每个人都有自己的观点，所以很难说。本文介绍了一些世界上最糟糕的建筑。‎ ‎【1题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据The Torre Velasca中The Tone Velasca in Milan is in the centre of Milan (Italy). The tower, which went up in the 1950s, is about 100 metres tall. Its design is actually a modern representation of a traditional Lombard castle, where ‎ the lower parts were narrower (狭窄的）than the upper parts.可知，the Torre Velasca类似于一个Lombard castle。故选A。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据The Mirador Building中There is a large rectangular(矩形的）hole in the upper part of it, which is used by the neighbourhood as a meeting area and playground.可知，这栋建筑在其上部有一个巨大的矩形空洞，符合特征的是C项建筑物。故选C。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据The Prague TV Tower中Prague is famous for its architectural beauty, so when the tower was put up in 1985 by architect Vaclav Aulicky and engineer Jiri Kozak, many felt it didn’t fit in.可知，布拉格以美丽的建筑出名，当布拉格电视塔建成之后，很多人觉得它与周围环境不配，也就是对这座建筑评价很低。故选B。‎ B Emma and Ryan, a married couple, were driving to a friend’s house when Emma turned to Ryan and asked, “Would you like to stop for lunch?”‎ Ryan replied, “No, I’m not hungry yet,” and continued driving. Meanwhile, Emma sat quietly fuming (十分恼火) in the passenger seat. Ryan could not understand why Emma was unhappy. He had thought she was asking if he was hungry, but in reality, Emma was telling him that she was hungry and wanted to stop for lunch.‎ Misunderstandings like this often occur between men and women, even among people from the same culture. Deborah Tannen, professor of linguistics at Georgetown University in the United States, has studied conversational rules.‎ In Emma and Ryan’s situation, Emma was making a request in the form of a question. Her style of talking is common for women. She needed Ryan to agree they were both hungry. So, Emma asked Ryan what he wanted. She was really telling Ryan what she wanted; however, Ryan did not understand this. If he had been hungry, he would have said something more direct, such as, “I’m hungry. Let’s have lunch.”‎ Tannen believes that most women grow up in a world where talk is used to express feelings. However, most men are raised differently and they tend to keep their feelings to themselves.‎ Tannen says, for men, talk is often used as a situation used outside the home to gain respect, to entertain and get attention, or to exchange information. This is why men communicate by making each other laugh, or talking about sport and work. These men do not always feel it is necessary to talk to feel close or to express their feelings. Women, on the other hand, are encouraged to speak about their feelings since this is a way to build relationships.‎ ‎4. What can be inferred from Emma and Ryan’s story?‎ A. Emma didn’t like Ryan.‎ B. Ryan didn’t want to talk to Emma.‎ C. Ryan didn’t want to eat with Emma.‎ D. Emma wasn’t pleased with Ryan’s answer.‎ ‎5. According to Deborah Tannen, what causes the misunderstanding?‎ A. Different cultures.‎ B. Different characteristics.‎ C. Different ways of communicating.‎ D. Different educational background.‎ ‎6. Compared with women, men _______.‎ A. talk less about feelings B. communicate more with others C. are more likely to become angry D. are better at building relationships ‎7. What might be the best title for the text?‎ A. Why women like to express feelings B. How men and women communicate C. Different ways of supporting a child D. Misunderstandings in social communication ‎【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是说明文。文章通过故事讲述了男人和女人怎样交流，男女交流方式有很大的不同。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第二段中Ryan replied. “No, I’m not hungry yet,” and continued driving. Meanwhile, Emma sat quietly fuming (十分恼火) in the passenger seat.可知，Emma对Ryan的回答感到不满意。故选D。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第五段Tannen believes that most women grow up in a world where talk is used to express feelings. However, most men are raised differently and they tend to keep their feelings to themselves.可知，根据Deborah Tannen所说，是男女之间不同的交流方式引起误解。故选C。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据最后一段中These men do not always feel it is necessary to talk to feel close or to express their feelings.可知，与女人相比，男人很少谈论感情。故选A。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中These men do not always feel it is necessary to talk to feel close or to express their feelings. Women, on the other hand, are encouraged to speak about their feelings since this is a way to build relationships.可知，本文讲述的是男人和女人怎样交流。故选B。‎ C Red meat, usually considered to be beef, pork, mutton and lamb products, have nutritional value, but eating red meat also raises some health concerns.‎ Red meat is an excellent source of protein(蛋白质). It is also a key source of vitamin B12, which is only available in animal products and is key for both red blood cell and nerve health. Red meat is also a rich source of zine, selenium(硒) and iron. Zinc and selenium are good for our immune system (免疫系统). Iron helps transport oxygen in the blood, and low levels of iron can lead to feeling tired. Eating red meat, especially lean cuts(廋肉), with meals and snacks, may help people curb hunger between meals and help people with weight management.‎ Health risks of red meat may include the risk of heart disease and cancer. It is usually best to avoid processed meats. These tend to contain lots of salt and nitrites(亚硝酸盐), which may damage our health. Choosing lean cuts and cooking meat ‎ correctly may reduce health risks. It is generally advised not to undercook or overcook red meat and to avoid grilling(烧烤).‎ When it comes to red meat and health, another thing is whether the animals are grain or grass-fed. Grass-fed animals frequently have a better quality of life. Grass feeding can be more environmentally friendly as well.‎ Many governments suggest the amount of red meat should be safely included in a healthy diet. The amount varies between nations, but several portions a week are usually acceptable. Those who choose to include eating red meat may wish to choose grass-fed animals and to cut off any fat before eating.‎ ‎8. According to Paragraph 2, red meat ________.‎ A. is quite expensive B. a major source of various vitamins C. can provide important nutrition for us D. contains protein that can’t be found in plants ‎9. What does the underlined word “curb” in paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A. experience B. develop C. control D. realize ‎10. What suggestion does the author give us on eating red meat?‎ A. We should eat it anyway we like.‎ B. We should cut it out from our diet.‎ C. We should cook it as long as possible.‎ D. We should pay attention to its quality and amount.‎ ‎11. What may be the best title for the text?‎ A. Red meat and health B. Diseases related to red meat C. Unhealthy diet of meat lovers D. Methods of cooking red meat ‎【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. A ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是红肉和健康的关系。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中Red meat is an excellent source of protein(蛋白质). It is also a key source of vitamin B12, which is only available in animal products and is key for both red blood cell and nerve health. Red meat is also a rich source of zine, selenium(硒) and iron. Zinc and selenium are good for our immune system (免疫系统).可知，红肉可以为我们提供重要的营养，它富含蛋白质、锌、硒和铁元素。故选C。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据第二段中Eating red meat, especially lean cuts(廋肉), with meals and snacks, may help people curb hunger between meals and help people with weight management.（在正餐和零食中吃红肉，尤其是瘦肉，可以帮助人们在两餐之间__________饥饿，帮助人们进行体重管理。）可推知，帮助体重管理，说明是“抑制或控制”饥饿。故选C。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Grass-fed animals frequently have a better quality of life. Grass feeding can be more environmentally friendly as well.和倒数第一段中Many governments suggest the amount of red meat should be safely included in a healthy diet.可知，作者给我们吃红肉的建议是我们应该注意它的质量和数量。故选D。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据第一段Red meat, usually considered to be beef, pork, mutton and lamb products, have nutritional value, but eating red meat also raises some health concerns.可知，本文讲述的是红肉和健康的关系。故选A。‎ D Scientists in Argentina have created the world’s first cow with two human genes that will enable it to produce human-like milk.‎ Genetic engineering was used to introduce the "mothers’ milk" genes into the animal before birth, according to the National Institute of Agribusiness Technology in Buenos Aires.‎ As an adult, the cloned cow "will produce milk that is similar to that of humans", which will prove "a development of great importance for the nutrition of infants(婴儿)", said the institute. "The cloned cow, named Rosita ISA, is the first in the world with two human genes that contain the proteins present in human milk,"‎ ‎ said the statement.‎ In April, scientists in China published details of research showing that they had created dairy cows which produced milk containing proteins found in human breast milk. But the Argentine team said the Chinese only introduced one human gene, while their research involved two, meaning the milk will more closely resemble that of humans.‎ ‎“Our goal was to raise the nutrition value of cows’ milk by adding two human genes, which do good to the immune system of infants,” said Adrian Mutto, from the National University of San Martin which worked with the institute.‎ Cristina Kirchner, President of Argentina, said that the scientific institute made all Argentines proud. She also said that she had refused the "honor" of having the cow named after her. "They came to tell me that the name is Cristina, but what woman would like to have a cow named after her? It appeared to me to be more proper to call it Rosita.”‎ ‎12. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. The importance of genetic engineering.‎ B. Ways to improve mothers’ milk.‎ C. Advanced agricultural technology in Argentina.‎ D. A cloned cow to produce human-like milk.‎ ‎13. Which of the following can best replace “more closely resemble” in Para 4?‎ A. have more varieties than B. have more nutrition than C. be more similar to D. be more different from ‎14. What can be inferred from Cristina Kirchner’s statements?‎ A. She was quite satisfied with the research done by the institute.‎ B. She considered it an honor to name the special cow.‎ C. She felt it improper to be named after the cow.‎ D. She refused to give a name to the cow out of self-respect.‎ ‎15. What’s Adrian Mutto’s attitude to the genetic engineering?‎ A. negative B. supportive C. indifferent D. mixed ‎【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文。阿根廷国家农业综合科技研究所的科学家们日前宣布，他们已成功培育出一头能够产类似人奶的奶牛。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段Scientists in Argentina have created the world's first cow with two human genes that will enable it to produce human-like milk以及下文内容可知，阿根廷的科学家们已成功培育出一头能够产类似人奶的克隆牛，故选D项。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据第四段的第二句But the Argentine team said the Chinese only introduced one human gene, while their research involved two，meaning the milk will more closely resemble that of humans.可知，阿根廷的研究团队称中国仅放入了一个人类基因，而他们的研究包含了两个，这意味着产出的牛奶将和人奶更相似。故划线词可以用C项代替。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段的Cristina Kirchner, President of Argentina, said that the scientific institute made all Argentines proud.可知，这项研究成果使所有的阿根廷人自豪，所以她对这个研究感到非常满意。故选A项。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Our goal was to raise the nutrition value of cows’ milk by adding two human genes, which do good to the immune system of infants,” said Adrian Mutto可知，Adrian Mutto对基因工程的态度是支持的。故选B。‎ 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。‎ New Reasons to Exercise It’s a cruel reality that exercising is not a reliable way to lose weight and keep it off. ___16___ Here are the benefits of regular exercise.‎ ‎___17___‎ A new study had found that just a short period of exercise can help improve the ‎ ability to remember things in the hours that follow. The report says, “Exercising four hours after learning a task can help people remember that task in the long term”‎ It may keep off depression.‎ ‎___18___ Researchers found that women who exercised regularly reported about 50% fewer depressive signs than women who didn’t exercise as much. And the more the women reported exercising, the less likely they were to have signs of depression.‎ It can control appetite.(食欲)‎ Exercise may be the key to controlling your appetite. A study found that people who exercised for 15 minutes after doing mental work ate 100 fewer calories than people who did mental work and then remained seated. Exercise has the ability to increase available fuel sources in the body that may signal to the brain. “___19___I don’t need to fill myself with food,” says study author William H. Neumeirer.‎ It increases energy.‎ In a recent report, men who cycled for 20 minutes experienced a 166% increase in self-reported energy levels, compared with a 15% increase when they sat and did nothing for the same amount of time.___20___‎ A.It improves memory.‎ B.It has mind-body benefits.‎ C.Here is the energy source I need.‎ D.We do the work at the office each day.‎ E.Working out regularly might prevent depression.‎ F.But that doesn’t mean you should give up the effort.‎ G.If you need a reason to work out, energy increase is a worthwhile one.‎ ‎【答案】16. F 17. A ‎ ‎18. E 19. C ‎ ‎20. G ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几项定期锻炼的好处，这是坚持锻炼的新理由。‎ ‎【16题详解】‎ 上文提示“这是一个残酷的现实，锻炼并不是减肥和保持体重的可靠方法。”下文提示“下面是定期锻炼的好处。”承接上下文，F项But that doesn’t mean you should give up the effort.（但这并不意味着你应该放弃努力。）切题。该项和上句是一种转折关系，由but连接；下文解释“为什么不应该放弃努力”，与该项衔接紧密。故选F。‎ ‎【17题详解】‎ 此空是小标题。根据下面的小标题，可知应该在A/B中选。再根据本段第一句A new study had found that just a short period of exercise can help improve the ability to remember things in the hours that follow.（一项新的研究发现，仅仅一小段时间的锻炼可以帮助提高在接下来的几个小时里记住事情的能力。）由此推知，A项It improves memory.（它提高记忆）符合本段内容。故选A。‎ ‎【18题详解】‎ 根据本段小标题It may keep off depression.（它可以防止抑郁。），再根据空格下文提示Researchers found that women who exercised regularly reported about 50% fewer depressive signs than women who didn’t exercise as much.（研究人员发现，经常锻炼的女性比不运动的女性少了50%的抑郁症状。）承接标题和下文，E项Working out regularly might prevent depression.（经常锻炼可以预防抑郁症。）符合上下文语境。故选E。此处关键词depression。‎ ‎【19题详解】‎ 根据本段小标题It can control appetite(食欲). （它控制食欲。），再根据下文提示“我不需要用食物填饱肚子。”承接下文，C项Here is the energy source I need.（这是我需要的能量来源。）符合上下文语境。故选C。‎ ‎【20题详解】‎ 根据本段小标题It increases energy.（它增加能量。），再根据空格上文提示“在最近的一份报告中，骑自行车20分钟的男性自我报告的能量水平增加了166%，而他们坐着的时候增加了15%，并且在同样的时间内没有做任何事情。”承接上文，G项If you need a reason to work out, energy increase is a worthwhile one.（如果你需要一个理由去锻炼，那么能量的增加是值得的。）切题。故选G。‎ ‎【点睛】在做七选五时一定要注意and/but/so/besides/however/furthermore/moreover/in addition/what’s ‎ more等词汇、固定结构的运用。它们连接了上下文，起着承上起下的作用。像but（但是）、however（然而），表示转折，这说明前后的内容相反或相对。把握住这一点，做起题来就会得心应手。本题第1小题，上文提示“这是一个残酷的现实，锻炼并不是减肥和保持体重的可靠方法。”而后文也就是这篇文章主要讲述的是“定期锻炼的好处”，所以与上文that所指内容构成相反，故这是一种转折关系。而F项But that doesn’t mean you should give up the effort.（但这并不意味着你应该放弃努力。）由but连接，前后是一种转折关系。此处that指的就是“锻炼并不是减肥和保持体重的可靠方法”。‎ 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。‎ Frederick Albert is not a name you will find in a history book.
