四川省双流中学2017-2018学年高二（上）期中考试 英语试题 第Ⅰ卷 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 The Coolest Inventions An Oceans Vacuum(吸尘器)‎ There’s a collection of plastic trash in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It’s bigger than Texas and growing. The way to clean it up now is to catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instead, the Ocean Cleanup Project proposes a 62-mile-long floating barrier that would use natural currents to trap trash. If next year’s trials succeed, a full cleanup operation would aim to start in 2020. It could reduce the trash by 42% over 10 years.‎ Easy-On Shoes In 2012, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dream is to go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes every day.” Nike assigned a design team to the challenge. This year, they came out with their solution: the FlyEase. The basketball shoe can be fastened with one hand. A pair of Nike FlyEase shoes sells for $130.‎ An Airport for Drones (无人机)‎ As Amazon, Google, and others get ready for drone delivery service, there is one big question: What kinds of home bases will their drones have? Rwanda, in Africa, may have the answer. There, workers will soon start work on three “drone ports”. The goals is to make it easier to transport food, medical supplies, electronics, and other goods through the hilly countryside. Construction is set to be completed in 2020.‎ ‎1.

A day later, he led the Knicks to their fifth victory, 100-98 to Minnesota Timberwolves. In his previous games, Lin, 23, had 23 points against the Washington, 25 points against New Jersey and 28 against Utah in his first start.‎ Lin is smart. Before graduating from high school in California, he had sent his application to all the Ivy League Schools(常青藤联盟). He only got into Harvard and Brown, and he chose Harvard. In 2010, Lin graduated with a degree in economics.‎ Lin is the first Chinese-American player in the NBA. He was born in the US and his family is Asian. Although not born in China, Lin has attracted nearly all Yao Ming's old fans, who see him as a powerful role model.‎ He started off on the Golden State Warriors. Lin first signed with the Warriors in July, 2010, but seldom played in games before the start of the fourth quarter. His first time on the court for the Warriors earned him seven points, three rebounds(篮板球) and two assists in just 11 minutes.‎ He is really perfect for the Knicks. The New York Knicks has been in need of a reliable point guard and to Mike D'Antoni, the Knicks coach who's going through a difficult season, Lin is a most unexpected figure. Lin just does everything easy and the rest of the guys around him are playing the way we want to," D'Antoni said. "I think it's for real, and it can only get better."‎ ‎4. In which team did Lin start his career in NBA?‎ A. the New York Knicks B. Minnesota Timberwolves C. The Golden State Warriors D. The Los Angles Lakers ‎5. From the passage, we learn that .‎ A. most of Yao Ming's fans take Lin as a great role model B. Lin is an American-Chinese basketball player C. the New York Knicks has never been defeated D. after graduation from Harvard, Lin signed with the Knicks ‎6. From the passage, it can be inferred that .‎ A. Lin is the team leader of the Knicks B. the Knicks' coach puts strong hopes on Lin C. the Knicks' success only depends on Lin D. the Knicks is sure to win the season this year ‎7. The author's purpose of writing the report is .‎ A. to introduce a newest rising NBA star B. to express his love for Jeremy Lin C. to report the progress of the Knicks D. to show his support for the Knicks ‎【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. A ‎【解析】本文讲述了NBA最新的球星林书豪的一些经历。‎ ‎4. C细节题。根据He started off on the Golden State Warriors．可知答案为C。‎ ‎5. A细节题。根据Lin has attracted nearly all Yao Ming's old fans, who see him as a powerful role model．可知几乎所有姚明的球迷都把林看作是一个强大的榜样。故选A。‎ ‎6. B推断题。根据the Knicks coach who's going through a difficult season, Lin is a most unexpected figure．可知答案为B。‎ ‎7. A 根据文章第一句话，可知林书豪已经成为了一个最新的NBA明星，所以作者的目的就是为了介绍他。故选A。‎ C Nobody is sure where and when the expression “apple-pie order” began. Some say that Scottish and English writers used the expression a long time ago. Others say it was first used in the northeastern American states known as New England. The housewives of New England cut their apples in even slices. Then they filled pie pans with them in an organized way, row upon row. As one writer said, the women of New England loved to have everything in its place. This perhaps explains why it generally is believed that the expression “apple-pie order” began in New England.‎ Another old expression, “apple of discord”, comes from ancient mythology(神话), however. The myth says that all the gods and goddesses were sitting around the ‎ table to celebrate the marriage of Thetis and Peleus. One of the goddesses-Discord was a troublemaker. She threw away a golden apple on the table to be given as a prize to the most beautiful goddess.‎ At one time, the tomato was called a love apple. That was a mistake. This is how the mistake happened: In the sixteenth century, Spain brought the tomato from South America after Spanish explorers had landed there. Spain then sold the tomato to Morocco. Italian traders carried it on to Italy. The Italian name for the tomato was “pomo di Moro” meant “d’amour” -the French word for love. And so “pomo di Moro” became the apple of love.‎ People believe many things about the apple. One belief is that it has great powers of keeping people healthy. A very common expression is "an apple a day keeps the doctor away."‎ Another belief is based on fact. The expression is "one rotten apple spoils the barrel." When an apple begins to go bad, it ruins all the other apples around it in the container. The expression has come to mean that one bad person in a group can cause everyone to act bad.‎ ‎8. Which of the following can we know about the phrase “apple-pie order”?‎ A. No one knows for sure where and when it began B. It has been put into use recently C. Everyone is sure of where it began D. It began in New England ‎9. What’s the meaning of “apple of discord”?‎ A. Everything in good order B. Situation of danger C. Everything in agreement D. Cause of disagreement ‎10. What’s the purpose of the third paragraph?‎ A. To show us a mistaken idea B. To explain how the tomato was called the apple of love C. To tell us a love story about apple D. To show how the tomato was brought in from south America ‎11. Which of the following expressions is about health?‎ A. Apple of discord B. Apple-pie order C. An apple a day keeps the doctor away D. One rotten apple spoils the barrel ‎【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C ‎【解析】本文介绍一些关于apple短语的来历及意义。‎ ‎8. A 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句Nobody is sure where and when the expression “apple-pie order” began.可知没有人确切知道它在哪是什么时候开始的。故选A。‎ ‎9. D ‎10. B 目的意图题。根据第三段最后两句The Italian name for the tomato was “pomo di Moro” meant “d’amour” -the French word for love. And so “pomo di Moro” became the apple of love.可知第三段在解释为什么西红柿被称作爱的苹果。故选B。‎ ‎11. C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中One belief is that it has great powers of keeping people healthy. A very common expression is "an apple a day keeps the doctor away."可知关于健康的表达是C.项，An apple a day keeps the doctor away一日一苹果，医生远离我。故选C。‎ D Why Do People Blink Their Eyes?‎ People blink(眨眼) their eyes tens of thousands of times every day. Scientists have long believed blinking was an involuntary movement and served mainly to keep the eyeballs wet. But a new study suggests it has a more important purpose.‎ An international team of scientists from the University of California at Berkeley ‎ studied the blinking of human eyelids. The journal Current Biology published their findings. The team said they found that blinking “repositions our eyeballs so we can stay focused” on what we are seeing. They said that when we blink our eyelids, the eyes roll back into their sockets--the bony area that surrounds and protects the eyes. However, the researchers found the eyes don’t always return to the same position. They said this causes the brain to tell the eye muscles to reorganize our eyesight.‎ Gerrit Maus is the lead writer of the report. He serves as an assistant professor of psychology at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Maus says: “Our eye muscles are quite sluggish(迟缓的) and imprecise, so the brain needs to constantly adapt its motor signals to make sure our eyes are pointing where they’re supposed to. Our findings suggested that the brain measures the difference in what we see before and after a blink, and commands the eye muscles to make the needed corrections.” The researchers said that without such corrections our surroundings would appear unclear and even jumpy. They said the movement acts “like a Steadicam(摄影稳定器) of the mind.”‎ The researchers said they asked volunteers to sit in a dark room while staring at a small dot on a flat surface. They used special cameras to follow the volunteer’s blinks and eye movements. After each blink, the dot was moved one centimeter to the right. The volunteers did not notice this, but the brain did. It followed the movement and directed the eye muscles to refocus on the dot. After the dot was moved in this way 30 times, the volunteers’ eyes changed their focus to the place where they predicted it would be.‎ Professor Maus says “Even though participants did not consciously register that the dot had moved, their brains did, and adjusted with the corrective eye movement. These findings add to our understanding of how the brain constantly adapts to changes, commanding our eye muscles to correct for errors in our bodies’ own hardware.”‎ ‎12. According to the new study, blinking eyes can .‎ A. serve to keep the eyeballs wet B. consciously correct eye movements C. reposition eyeballs to stay focused D. make our eyes adapt to motor signals ‎13. From the experiment, we can learn that .‎ A. the brain commanded the eye muscles to refocus on the dot B. the eyeballs could stay in the place as they were predicted C. participants were aware of the dot’s movements to the right D. volunteers could see the moving dot with special cameras ‎14. The underlined word “register” in Paragraph 5 possibly means .‎ A. reason B. refocus C. reserve D. realize ‎15. This passage shows that .‎ A. eye muscles are quite inactive and imprecise B. the research is of great value in the eye movement C. volunteers control their blinks to follow the changes of the dots D. the brain plays an important role in seeing things clearly ‎【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. D ‎【解析】本文讲述了一项对眼睛的研究，研究发现人眨眼睛的目的，是为了让自己更关注一件事，而眼球的运作是靠大脑进行调控的。可见，大脑在人类通过眨眼睛来把事物看得更清楚这一现象中起着重要的作用。‎ ‎12. C 细节理解题。根据第二段中The team said they found that blinking “repositions our eyeballs so we can stay focused” on what we are seeing.可知眨眼睛可以重新定位眼球以保持注意力集中。故选C。‎ ‎13. A 细节理解题。根据文章第三段Our findings suggested that the brain measures the difference in what we see before and after a blink, and commands the eye muscles to make the needed corrections.”可知，从这项研究中发现，大脑测量我们在眨眼前后看到的差异，并命令眼睛肌肉做出所需的校正。故选A。‎ ‎14. D 词义猜测题。根据文章原句“Even though participants did not consciously register that the dot had moved, their brains did, and adjusted with the corrective eye movement.‎ 可知，即使参与者没有_____这个点的移动，大脑也会对我们的眼睛运动进行纠正调整。A. reason推论； B. refocus重调焦距；C. reserve 保留； D. realize意识到。代入原句，可知，即使参与者没有意识到点的移动，大脑也会正常运作。故选D。‎ ‎15. D 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文讲述人眨眼睛的目的，是为了让自己更关注一件事，而眼球的运作是靠大脑进行调控的。可见，大脑在人类通过眨眼睛来把事物看得更清楚这一现象中起着重要的作用。故选D。‎ 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。‎ How to Have a Successful Teenage Life Everyone wants to succeed in their life, don’t they?

C 根据上句：按着上面所说的你可以进入一个更好的大学，这会使你有一个光明的未来。可知学校设置你在正确的轨道上。故选C。‎ ‎18. D 根据上句：研究表明，做志愿者工作的人与不做的相比更不可能得抑郁。再根据空格下句：比如你爱动物，你就在动物收容所做志愿者。由此可知此空的意思是：找机会做使你感兴趣的志愿者工作。故选D。‎ ‎19.

E 根据上句：尊重他们，珍惜他们的建议，即使他们有时候使你烦恼。再根据空格下句：你不能选择你的老师和你的家庭，但是你必须容忍他们。可知此空的意思是：记住做他们让你做的事情，因为他们在乎你。故选E。‎ ‎【名师点睛】‎ 做七选五时，“尤其代词不可放”是说：在填空处的前后语境中出现的一些代词不可忽视。有这样一道题：”They can be rich resources to improve your knowledge.‎ ‎”我接着就问学生“该选项中凭空多出一个代词they，这说明什么问题？”学生回答：“代词是起替代作用的，一定是前文出现的事物被they替代了，找到被替代的名词就可以了。”结果往文中一找，前面的语境是“Volunteering brings together all kinds of people.”。这下同学们就明白了，原来they替代的就是前文的all kinds of people短语。这样的现象在七选五中是很多见了，能帮助大家解决不少难题。本题第4小题，此空相当于一个小标题，根据上、下段开头，应该用一个祈使句。再根据下文：他们会使你成为最好的你。由they可知，B.项，Be nice to your parents and teachers（对你的父母和老师要好）符合题意。此处的they指的是your parents and teachers。‎ 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，选取可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ The Broken Lantern On a wild July night, the storm was getting worse and worse.
