‎2019—2020学年度(上)期末质量监测 高二英语 ‎ 本试卷分三部分，卷面分数120分。总分150分。考试用时100分钟。 ‎ 第一部分： 阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25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 I grew up in a home with a mother who believes that vaccines (疫苗) cause brain damage, and do not contribute to the health and safety of a society. The only shot I received was for tetanus (破伤风) when I was two months old. After that, nothing.‎ ‎ At the beginning of each school year, I was very nervous. Delayed term paper? Mischievous (捣蛋的) behavior? Late for school? None of them. I’d be pulled out of class and brought to the headmaster’s office. The school doctor would tell me I hadn’t received any of the necessary shots to attend school. But the same thing occurred each time: my mom would free me from the shots and nothing would happen.‎ ‎ After doing a lot of research, I found although people who don’t vaccinate their children make up only a relatively small group, they can cause major consequences. People who, for health or age reasons, cannot receive vaccines are at a higher risk of catching a preventable disease.‎ ‎ Eventually, I turned 18. In Ohio, where I live, I had to wait until I became a legal adult to make the decision to receive vaccine shots. A huge factor in taking the step to ensure my health was the message board website Reddit. Last November, I asked Reddit users for advice about what vaccines to ask for and how to go about getting them from a doctor. After my post received more than 1,000 comments, I made an appointment with my family physician. Despite how strongly my mother felt, I went through with it anyway.‎ ‎ I did something every person should do. It wasn’t special in any way. Vaccines protect the health and safety of not only yourself but also other people. Vaccination is important because someone could die if you don’t get vaccinated. This was the biggest reason I got vaccines despite the opposition.‎ ‎1. Why was the author called to the headmaster’s office at the beginning of each school year?‎ A. He was late for school.‎ B. He didn’t behave himself at school.‎ C. He couldn’t hand in his term paper on time.‎ D. He was hardly ever vaccinated.‎ ‎2. How might the author’s mother have felt about his appointment with the family physician?‎ A. Annoyed.‎ B. Grateful.‎ C. Thrilled.‎ D. Guilty.‎ ‎3. What does the author mainly want to tell us through his story?‎ A. Listening to your mother pays off.‎ B. Doing the right thing matters.‎ C. Keeping fit is the best policy.‎ D. Asking for advice helps.‎ B When did you last buy something? Maybe you are looking forward to a shopping trip at the weekend, but will it make you happy? In the short term, the answer might be yes. However, some people think it might not be good for our health and happiness in the long term.‎ One of the busiest shopping days of the year in the USA is Black Friday (the fourth Friday of November), which has spread around the world. However, not everyone will be queuing for a bargain. In 1992, Buy Nothing Day started in Canada and now more than sixty countries take part. Their message is simple: “Participate by not participating.” For twenty-four hours on the fourth Friday of November, people do not buy anything at all. Some people choose to spend time with friends and family instead. Others join protests. But what’s the point?‎ Every single purchase that you make has some kind of an effect on the planet. Making the products and transporting them to the shops use a lot of natural resources. When they are no longer in fashion, the products will end up in the dustbin. All this contributes to air and water pollution, the destruction of our environment and social inequality.‎ The social influence of our spending habits is also serious. People in consumerist culture are more likely to suffer from financial problems and stress. In order to buy expensive products, people work long hours and therefore spend less time with family and friends.‎ Critics of Buy Nothing Day say it’s meaningless because people will just buy more the following day. But the organizers argue that Buy Nothing Day makes people think about the consequences of consumption and maybe make some changes to their life style.‎ 4. Why is the question “When did you last buy something?” asked?‎ A. To remind us of the approaching of Black Friday.‎ B. To attach importance to our health and happiness.‎ C. To introduce the topic of shopping too much.‎ D. To encourage us to participate in Buy Nothing Day.‎ 5. How can people participate in Buy Nothing Day?‎ A. By not participating in any advertisement for Black Friday.‎ B. By not buying anything on four Fridays of November.‎ C. By spending time shopping with friends and family.‎ D. By not going shopping on Black Friday. ‎ 6. What’s NOT the point of Buy Nothing Day?‎ A. Saving time spent on working.‎ B. Saving the environment and our earth.‎ C. Saving money for charity.‎ D. Saving our relationship with friends and family.‎ 4. What’s the organizers’ opinion on Buy Nothing Day?‎ A. It can make a difference in some way.‎ B. It won’t have a lasting effect. ‎ C. It can help people choose goods more reasonably.‎ D. It can cure people’s shopping addiction.‎ C Of all the places stray (流浪的) cats can live in Beijing, perhaps none provides greater companionship than an underground facility known as the “Cat Shed”. A variety of cats are spread across the shed’s 100 square meters. They jump and play on toy towers or rest on cotton blankets on iron-framed beds. ‎ Since the facility was established in 2012, some 150 cats have lived there. More than 100 volunteers attend to the strays. Many claim that they gain greater benefit from the interaction than the cats, because the animals offer not just companionship, but also a kind of healing.‎ The “housekeeper” is Yin Yi, a doctoral candidate at the Central Iron and Steel Research Institute in Beijing. When the 29-year-old arrived in the capital in late 2015, he faced huge pressure from his studies and personal relationships, while the alien environment exacerbated his feeling of loneliness.‎ After gaining a master’s from a university in Inner Mongolia, Yin relocated to go for a doctorate in material sciences. Accustomed to having friends around, he was not used to a lonely life, especially working by himself and spending up to 10 hours in a lab most days. To improve his mood, he decided to contact animal bases, looking for opportunities to care for stray cats. When he heard that a stray cat basement near his campus was looking for volunteers, he contacted Wu Xinhua, who organizes activities at the Cat Shed, and was soon surrounded by furry friends. His favorite moment is when he dishes out food and a dozen strays gather round, with several rubbing against his feet. When he graduates, Yin plans to house three strays in his apartment.‎ 8. What does the underlined word “exacerbated” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Worsened B. Improved C. Replaced D. Touched 9. What can we learn about the Cat Shed?‎ A. Yin Yi has rented the basement and provided facilities for the Cat Shed.‎ B. The Cat Shed is a relaxing and warm place for volunteers.‎ C. Wu Xinhua raises money to run the Cat Shed.‎ D. The Cat Shed only allows volunteers to adopt cats there.‎ 10. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. Stray cats enjoy themselves at the Cat Shed B. Volunteers make stray cats live a better life C. “Stray” youngsters in Beijing need healing ‎ D. Furry friends promote stress-free lives 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。‎ Eyesight is the sense that you rely upon the most.

A flag is a piece of cloth with a picture or pattern on it. The flag is a symbol that stands for the country. It is a custom in many places for people to fly or hang a flag. The flag tells something about the country and its culture. This may be about its land, its history, or the things that the people do there.‎ Many flags have patterns of stripes (条纹). The flag of Italy has a green stripe, a white stripe and a red stripe. Each stripe tells something about Italy. The white stripe is symbol of Italy’s snowy mountains. Some flags show pictures. The flag of Canada has a picture of a red maple (枫叶) leaf, which is a symbol of the maple trees in Canada. The Mexican flag has both a pattern of stripes and a picture. The picture shows an eagle eating a snake. This picture comes from a very old Mexican story.‎ A flag may also tell about a country’s past. The American flag is called the Stars and Stripes. It has pattern of fifty stars and thirteen stripes. The fifty stars are a symbol of the fifty states in the country and the thirteen stripes are a symbol of the country’s first thirteen colonies (殖民地).‎ However, a flag may be a symbol of a group, a school or an event like the Olympics. The flag of the Olympics shows five rings of different colors that connect. Each ring is a symbol for a part of the world that joins in the Olympics. The Red Cross is a group that helps people who are in trouble. If a person sees the Red Cross flag, which has a red cross against a white background, he knows he can ask for help. People may fly a flag as a custom on a holiday. Children’s Day in Japan is a holiday when the country wishes for children’s happiness. It is a custom on this day to fly a flag with a picture of a fish.‎ ‎------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------‎ ‎_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ 丹东市2019—2020学年度(上)期末高二英语测试答案 第一部分：阅读理解 ‎1-3 DAB 4-7  CDCA  8-10 ABD 11-15 FAGCE ‎ 第二部分：英语知识运用 ‎16-20 BDACB 21-25 DCABD 26-30 ABCDA 31-35 BDCAC ‎36. an 37. simply 38. various/varied 39. carried 40. who/that ‎41. from 42. to develop 43. anxiety 44. spending 45. their 第三部分: 写作 应用文参考范文：‎ Dear Max, ‎ ‎ I’m Li Hua, your host family member in China.
