‎ 2019-2020学年第二学期线上教学 高二级英语科质量监测试题 本试卷共8页，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。‎ 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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。‎ A ‎ Are you looking for a winter vacation destination? Try these four resorts (度假胜地) and it will certainly give you an unforgettable experience.‎ ‎ Solitude Mountain Resort, Utah ‎ Solitude‎ ‎Mountain‎ is a place often recommended by tourist agents. It’s a place to go if you love skiing in winter but hate waiting on lift lines. Loving a bargain doesn’t hurt either since the accommodations here are less expensive.‎ ‎ ‎Key West‎, ‎Florida The crowds thin out and the prices fall in Key West in winter. Key West has a remote, romantic feel. It has inspired many poets and literary greats. It will inspire you to literally celebrate the sunrise. Surely, there are nightly sunset celebrations! ‎ ‎ ‎Taos‎, ‎New Mexico Taos‎, ‎New Mexico‎, is a popular winter spot. Besides skiing, you’ll be able to experience all the culture and sights, including the thousand-year-old Taos Pueblo, the only living Native American community that is regarded as a World Heritage Site.‎ ‎ Big Sky, ‎Montana Big Sky, Montana, has more than 5,800 acres of skiing area spreading across a few mountains, with a vertical (垂直的) drop of 4,350 feet, as well as ‎85km of Nordic tracks. It’s a good idea to head for Big Sky for the fantastic skiing in winter because then it has been called “the least crowded resort ever”.‎ ‎1. Which of the following best describes Key West?‎ A. Modern B. Serious C. Realistic D. Romantic ‎2. What is Taos Pueblo?‎ A. It is the name of an American. B. It is an ancient community.‎ C. It is a hotel in Mexico. D. It is a national park.‎ ‎3. If you look for an exciting skiing experience, you can go to .‎ A. Solitude‎ ‎Mountain B. Key West C. Taos D. Big Sky B What is the greatest threat to mankind? Maybe different people come up with different answers. However, there is no denying the fact that the only threat to humankind, apart from humankind itself, is, without any doubt, the nature. Natural disasters are the result of natural environmental processes that have a damaging effect on people. Natural disasters can come in many forms: such as geological events like ‎ earthquakes, tsunamis or mud-rock flows, climatic events like storms, hurricanes or tornadoes and fire events like forest fires and wildfires.‎ The damage done by natural disasters is mainly as a result of our inability to predict(预测) exactly when they will happen. Although great progress has been made in designing and developing forecasting models for some natural disasters, complete certainty is still impossible. Even to be pessimistic, there is a possibility that human beings will never achieve accurate prediction of the happening of all natural disasters.‎ ‎　　What’s more, even though we were able to predict these disasters from nature, preventing them is equally impossible. So we only have two ways to both prevent injuries or deaths and reduce economic losses to the least. These two methods are to prepare before a natural disaster comes to hit, and to manage the necessary resources and public services after a natural disaster strikes.‎ ‎　　These two things have always been at the leading position of the projects of both national governments and international organizations. In the United States, the Federal Emergency Management Agency is responsible for the “preparedness, response and recovery planning” of both man-made and natural disasters.‎ Most natural disasters cannot be prevented, and both emergency preparation and good disaster management are the best ways to deal with them. Although natural events may appear to serve no purpose but simply to punish and destroy, natural disasters, a perfect symbol of the great power of the nature, are display of our planet’s evolution and its state of change.‎ ‎4. According to the passage, both humankind and nature _________.‎ ‎ A. can be managed orderly B. can threaten human beings ‎ C. are hard to control D. have a large family ‎5. The reason why natural disasters cause so much damage is that _________.‎ ‎ A. it is very difficult to predict when exactly they will happen ‎ B. our forecasting equipment is too old for many natural disasters ‎ C. we don’t do enough preparation before natural disasters strike ‎ D. we don’t have the necessary public services to use after natural disasters strike ‎6. It may be concluded from the passage that _________.‎ ‎ A. natural disasters can not be predicted at all ‎ B. human beings are pessimistic to the future ‎ C. being well-prepared can avoid economic losses ‎ D. good preparation and disaster management are advisable ‎7. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?‎ ‎ A. A Symbol of the Power of Nature B. The Greatest Threat to Mankind ‎ C. Natural Disasters and Mankind D. Reduce Losses to the Least C ‎ An elderly carpenter(木匠) was ready to retire. He told his employer, a contractor, of his plans to leave the house-building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by.‎ The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy(粗糙的) workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end his career.‎ When the carpenter finished his work and the builder came to inspect the house, the contractor handed the front-door key to the carpenter. “This is your house,” he said, “my gift to you.” What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well.‎ So it is with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather than acting, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized that we would have done it differently.‎ Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one more day, that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity. The plaque on the wall says, “Life is a do-it-yourself project.” Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.‎ ‎8. What did the carpenter plan to do after retirement?‎ ‎ A. Enjoy family happiness. B. Switch to another field.‎ ‎ C. Start his own business. D. Build a house of his own.‎ ‎9. How did the contractor plan to deal with the house he asked the carpenter to build?‎ ‎ A. He planned to sell it to one of his customers.‎ ‎ B. He planned to send it to the carpenter as a gift.‎ ‎ C. He planned to fill it with his favorites.‎ ‎ D. He planned to send it to his partner.‎ ‎10. What can we know about the last house the carpenter built?‎ ‎ A. It was of low quality. ‎ ‎ B. It did not satisfy the contractor.‎ ‎ C. It was perfect in workmanship and materials.‎ ‎ D. It was the best of all the houses he had built.‎ ‎11. What does the story intend to tell us?‎ ‎ A. We should focus on the future life. B. We should react to life rather than act.‎ ‎ C. We should build our houses in life. D. We should always do our best.‎ ‎ D Have you ever thought, if all ice in Antarctica(南极洲) and the Arctic(北极) melts due to the global warming, what will happen? But one thing is sure with 100% certainty, penguins in Antarctic and the Arctic will be in big trouble.‎ Rising temperatures in coming years would lead to less sea ice in the Southern Ocean that surrounds Antarctica and fewer habitats and feeding grounds for penguins, says the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in its report 2 Degrees is Too Much.‎ Antarctica and the Arctic are the most threatened regions from climate change. In the Antarctica, the temperature has risen 2.5 degrees in the past 50 years. This speed is nearly five times faster than that before the Industrial Revolution. It is mainly caused by burning fossil fuels. Unless nations reduce carbon dioxide emission, the world will warm by an average of 2 degrees in less than 40 years. Rich nations should agree to reduce greenhouse gas emission. Temperatures near the Poles have risen much faster, which has led glaciers on the Antarctic Peninsula to melt quickly.‎ The situation is quite critical, because in the past 50 years the number of emperor penguins(帝企鹅) has decreased by 50 percent across the whole Antarctica. On the northwest coast of the Antarctic Peninsula, the number of Adelie penguins(阿德利企鹅) has dropped surprisingly over the past 25 years.‎ Fifty percent of the habitats of the emperor penguin and 75 percent of the habitats of the Adelie penguin face a rapid reduction, or even disappearance, if the global temperature rises 2 degrees above pre-industrial levels.‎ With a 2-degree increase in global temperature and the decrease in sea ice thickness, emperor penguins will find it difficult to find new areas to live. With less sea ice, penguins could be pushed further south, but this could prevent them from hunting for food during the dark winters, because they need at least a few hours of daylight to find their food. ‎ ‎12. The purpose of the passage is to _________.‎ ‎ A. introduce the Adelie penguins and emperor penguins to readers ‎ B. tell readers about the rising temperatures in the ‎Antarctica ‎ C. tell readers about the effect of global warming ‎ D. warn people that Antarctica is becoming smaller and smaller ‎13. In the author’s opinion, what has caused global warming?‎ ‎ A. That carbon dioxide emission is too high.‎ ‎ B. That the atmosphere of the earth is becoming thinner. ‎ ‎ C. That the earth is getting hotter and hotter.‎ ‎ D. That the use of oxygen in the air is out of control.‎ ‎14. The underlined world “critical” in the Para. 4 means _________.‎ ‎ A. important B. different C. serious D. mild ‎15. What is the author’s attitude towards the consequence caused by global warming?‎ ‎ A. Optimistic. B. Anxious. C. Hopeless. D. Painful 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。‎ All over the world, animals and plants are in trouble. People are trying to find ways to help them. 16 Here are some tips.‎ Adopt an animal.‎ ‎ Many zoos and wildlife organizations have programs that let kids donate money to help specific endangered animals. 17 ‎ Don’t release fish or pets onto the wild.‎ ‎ 18 Chances are that your pet is not native to where you live. Set loose, it might become an invasive (入侵的) species, or it might spread diseases. So keep your fish in their tank, or find them a new home but not the pond.‎ ‎ 19 ‎ Chemicals used to kill garden weeds and bugs (虫子) are a big problem for animals. Maybe if you offered to pull the weeds up instead, you could help people to use fewer poisons.‎ Speak up.‎ Share what you know and speak up for the animals. Write letters! Powerful people need to know that you care and you’re keeping an eye on them to make sure they do their jobs right and protect the planet. ‎ Make less rubbish.‎ Pollution and plastic rubbish are bad for animals and nature. How can you help? 20 Take your lunch in a lunchbox or reusable bag. Bring cloth bags to the store and remind grownups if they forget.‎ ‎ A. Pull the weeds up.‎ ‎ B. Everything will go on well.‎ ‎ C. But what can you do in daily life? ‎ ‎ D. Bring drinks from home in a refillable bottle.‎ ‎ E. It might seem kind to set pets free, but it isn’t.‎ ‎ F. People are finding lots of ways to help the endangered species.‎ ‎ G. For your next birthday, why not ask your friends and family to help you adopt one?‎ 第二部分 语言知识运用 （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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ One young person, who was well educated, went for a job as a manager in a big company.
