AMichelle was a student at University of California, Los Angeles. She is here to tell us how she feels about the city.What were the best things about Los Angeles?One of my favorite things about Los Angeles is the weather. I hate the cold and it never really gets that cold there. Plus, most of the time it’s usually sunny, which is good because I love going to the beach during the summer. There’s so much to do at the beach, but my favorite thing in L.A. was having a picnic on the sand with my friends.What were the worst things about being there?I disliked having to drive everywhere to get around because the city is so spread out. Los Angeles has a lot of traffic and sometimes it takes a long time to get somewhere close by just because the streets are so crowded. Also, a lot of people complain aboutthe pollution.Did you have any problems there?Just the normal problems of living in any city, like watching out for pickpockets (扒手). Some people think Los Angeles has a lot of crime, but I think it’s as safe as any other city. Also, many people think driving is difficult because there is a lot of traffic and road rage (路怒症), but it just takes a little practice and a lot of patience.What are the people like in Los Angeles?There are all types of people in Los Angeles since the city is pretty diverse. For the most part, though, most of the people are friendly, calm and relaxed. Some people say that everyone in Los Angeles is beautiful, but I think that’s just a stereotype (模式化的印象).Would you go back to Los Angeles?Certainly. Los Angeles is one of my favorite cities in the world. I love the fact that it has all the nightlife and shopping of a big city, but also has access to beaches, parks, mountains and other places you can’t usually find in large cities. Between the weather and the beaches and all the fun things to do, it’s a great place to be.21. We can learn from the text that Michelle .A. Hates the heavy traffic in Los AngelesB. dislikes the cold weather in Los AngelesC. thinks Los Angeles is small and crowdedD. enjoys driving everywhere in Los Angeles22. What’s Michelle’s impression of the people in Los Angles?A. They get angry easily.B. All sorts of people live there.C. They are patient and amusing.D. Everyone is kind and beautiful.23. How does Michelle find Los Angeles?A. Safe but noisy.B. Relaxing but busy.C. Polluted and dangerous.D. Diverse and interesting.24. We learn from the text that .A. Michelle was born in Los AngelesB. Michelle loved the life in Los AngelesC. Los Angeles has many traffic accidentsD. Michelle has no plan to return to Los AngelesBHundreds of foreign aid workers are in West Africa treating people with Ebola and I’ve just flown from the UK to Liberia to face the deadly virus.I was first in Liberia five weeks ago. Back then, our treatment centre had already run out of room. At the centre, the smell of blood and dead bodies is terrible. I am only leave it to your imagination to understand what a pile of bodies smells like after a week in very hot and moist (潮湿的) surroundings, which makes you feel sick most of the time.I’m responsible for infection control, which means that my first job is to make sure of the safety of the people I work with and of myself. We have to wear our scrubs and when you undress afterwards, it looks like someone has just poured some water over you.I try to visit the patients, give them some water and help where I can. I’ll wash patients and give some physical contact (接触) to each person because nobody else will touch them and nobody else has been near them for days, so they must feel very lonelyand very frightened. If we have children at the treatment centre, Which we quite often do, I’ll try to bring them some toys and have a little game with them if I can.Depending on how many people have died, I’ll then start the very unpleasant job of moving the bodies. If the relatives want to come and say goodbye, we set up a viewing and I try to make that as pleasant as I can.I do feel fear and I can’t ignore that. Last time I was in Liberia, I’d wake up during the night and take my temperature. If I had a sore throat (喉咙痛), I’d start to wonder if I had the virus and worry, Meanwhile I do enjoy my job. After all, when we get Ebola under control, there’ll be the satisfaction of knowing I did a job that maybe not everyone could have done and that I played a small part in helping to overcome this terrible disease.25. In Liberia, the author mainly .A. raised patients’ spiritsB. studied the deadly virusC. tried to find a cure for EbolaD. tried to stop Ebola spreading26. The underlined word “scrubs” in Paragraph 3 refers to .A. some belts to help move the patientsB. something marking their positionsC. something to keep them warmD. some clothes to keep them safe27. If an infected patient’s relatives visit, they can .A. arrange a viewing.B. play a special game with him.C. have physical contact with himD. take care of him for a few days.28. Which of the following best describes the author?A. Determined and optimistic.B. Warmhearted and honest.C. Talented and patient.D. Brave and caring.CEverybody should have some level of first aid ability, because accidents and medical emergencies can happen anywhere at any time.

Ellerbee wore her favorite orange shoes—the same pair she wears in the program—for the special occasion.When asked why she started Nick News, Ellerbee’s answer is simple. “Kids have a right (权利) to know,”she says. “And they already to know, but maybe not all the facts.”She looks at her job on Nick News as more than just a news reporter. She says that it’s her duty to explain the news and help children understand what has really happened.Ellerbee tries to balance bad news with good news, too. “Behind each sad story, there’s always someone or something trying to make it better,” she explains.Beside important events, Nick News also reports the things that are going on in the world of kids.

We’ve really had enough of you. Although we have tried to speak to you politely on several occasions, you have always answered with a stream of verbal abuse(辱骂).Ever since you moved in three months ago, you have shown very little consideration for the other residents of this building, though many residents expressed their unhappiness with you. For the past six weekends, you have held very noisy parties, which have not finished until early the next morning. As you know, most of the people here are elderly or have very young children, and the noise keeps them awake all night. You don’t have to be so noisy, do you? Last weekend the situation deteriorated when two of your friends fought with each other on the first floor. The fighting was so bad that the police had to be called. What’s more, your friends left the stairs in a terrible state --- they even broke two windows on their way out! We feel that we can’t bear this type of act.We strongly demand that yo u pay for this damage to the window soon. If you don’t and you carry on being a nuisance(令人讨厌的人或物). We will kick you out!

That’s what all doctors thought, until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.【1】The main idea of this passage is that_____.A.large numbers of people do not need sleepB.a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepC.everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD.people can live longer by trying not to sleep【2】The doctors came to visit Herpin, expecting_____.A.to cure him of his sleeplessnessB.to find that his sleeplessness was not really trueC.to find out why some old people did not need any sleepD.to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping【3】After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Herpin_____.A.needed some kind of sleepB.was too old to need any sleepC.needed no sleep at allD.often sleep in a chair【4】One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was _____.A.his mother’s injury before he was bornB.that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC.his magnificent physical conditionD.that he hadn’t got a bed【5】Herpin’s condition could be regarded as ______.A.a common one B.one that could becuredC.very healthy D.a rare one3.The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know. I stood up to look around, when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady with a warm smile. She said, "Hi handsome. My name is Rose.I'm eighty-seven years old.”"Why are you in college at such a young age?" I asked. She replied, "I'm here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of kids and then retire(退休) and travel..."I knew she was joking. I was curious what might have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age."I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!" she told me.We became friends. Every day we would talk nonstop after class. I was always interested in listening to this "time machine" as she shared her wisdom and experience with me. And Rose easily made friends wherever she went. At the end of the term we invited Rose to make a little speech. She cleared her throat and began, "We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. I’ve learned a few secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You've got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die.”“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change.“Have no regrets. The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do……"【1】When the writer and Rose first met, they began their talk in a_______ way.A.serious B.polite C.formal D.humorous【2】Which of the following has the similar meaning to the underlined word “motivated” in the fourth paragraph?

A medical research paper says cancer was once thought of as a problem mostly in the developed world. But now cancer is a leading cause of death and disability in poor countries as well. Experts from Harvard University and other organizations urge the international community to fight cancer actively, saying it should be fought in the wayHIV/AIDS has been fought in Africa.Cancer kills more than 7.5 million people a year worldwide. Almost two-thirds are in low-income and middle-income countries.They discover cancer kills more people in developing countries than AIDS, tuberculosis (肺结核) and malaria (疟疾) combined. But the world spends only 5% of its cancer resources in those countries.Felicia Knaul from Harvard Medical School was one of the writers of the paper. She was in Mexico when she was found to have breast cancer. She received treatment there and her experience showed her the sharp difference between the rich and the poor in treating breast cancer.Felicia Knaul says, “And we are seeing how this is attacking young women. It’s the number two cause of death in Mexico for women thirty to fifty-four. All over the developing world, it’s the number one cancer-related death among young women. I think we have to again say that there is much more we could do about it than we are doing about it.”Professor Knalul met community health workers during her work in developing countries. They were an important part of efforts to reduce deaths from the cancer. They were able to persuade people to get tested to prevent the illness. The experts say cancer care does not have to be costly. For example, patients can be treated with lower-cost drugs.【1】What would be the best title for the passage?A.Cancer – a leading cause of death in poor countriesB.What should we do in preventing and treating cancer?C.What makes the first killer in developing countries?D.Experts urge more efforts to fight cancer.【2】Felicia Knaul’s ex perience in Mexico shows that .A.many Mexican women suffer from breast cancerB.there is not enough medicine for cancer thereC.many Mexican women can’t afford medical careD.patients with breast cancer are treated differently【3】From what Felicia Knaul says, we can draw the conclusion that .A.breast cancer is a great threat to young womenB.people don’t pay enough attention to breast cancerC.breast cancer is the second killer among women in MexicoD.patients can be treated effectively in developing countries【4】Who plays an important part in preventing the cancer in developing countries?A.The cancer patients.B.The health experts.C.Community health workers.D.Young women.【5】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The number of cancer cases is decreasing.B.HIV/AIDS is not being taken seriously in Africa.C.Over 7.5 million people die of cancer every year.D.It is very expensive to treat cancer.四、其他[1] The key word is practice! Practice, practice, practice!! There is no other way. There is no magic. The way to get better at listening to English is to listen to English. That’s the not-so-good news.[2] The good news is there are many ways to listen and many things to listen to.[3] Listening to English songs can be fun. But be careful! Most ________ use the language in a special way that you don’t hear every day. You don’t want to start speaking English like a poet or songwriter. If you do listen to English songs, listen to different ones. This will help you train your ears to different voices, pronunciations and rhythms.[4] If you can, get a copy of the lyrics(歌词) so you can read them and listen to them at the same time. It is sometimes better to listen with your eyes as well as your ears—more information to help the brain.[5] Watch English DVDs. But, this time, do not use your eyes to read the subtitles (字幕). Turn off the subtitles, because movies have so many other clues about what is happening that it is better not to use the subtitles. Thisforces your ears to do the work.[6] Choose one character (人物) that interests you and pay attention to what they say and how they say it. If you can, repeat a line out loud after they have said it. Teach yourself one or more sayings, phrases or ways of talking that you will use after watching the movie.[7] A new and growing resource of English language for listening can be found in blogs. Blogs are in MP3 format and can be loaded first onto your computer and then onto your MP3 player for very convenient take-with-you listening.[8] You can find many English listening practices are fun, new, educational and in unending supply.【1】What is the main idea of the passage? (within 10 words.)_______________________________________________________________________【2】What does the underlined sentence ( in Para4 ) mean?_______________________________________________________________________【3】Please fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (within 2 words.)_______________________________________________________________________【4】List three ways of practising your English listening. (within 15words.)①__________________ ②__________________ ③__________________【5】What does the word “them” (Line1, Paragraph4) probably refer to?

高二上学期第二次月考(英语)试题含答案
高二上学期第二次月考(英语)(考试总分:120 分)一、阅读理解(本题共计4小题,总分30分)1.(6分)Music is born to light my spirit.In no particular order, here are some songs on the Music app of my phone:On a Sunday Afternoon by Lighter Shade of Brown—A student of mine introduced this rap song to me all the way back in the early 1990s, when 1 was teaching Spanish at a local university. The story in the song takes place not too far from where I live in Los Angeles. It’s a good “driving” song, nothing complicated or “deep”.Say Something by A Great Big World—A more recent song about a couple losing contact with each other. The piano part is very little playing but beautiful.American Pie by Don McLean—Another song from my youth in the 80s, very popular with almost every American of my generation. It retells some of the key events of the middle 20th century, a song of happy memories of the past and wanting to return to those better times.The Weight by The Band—Another old song, originally made public in 1968, but one I didn’t hear until I was in high school more than 10 years later. I don’t understand the words to the song completely, but the feeling of the song is very comforting to me.Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers—This Los Angeles group wrote a song that I used to listen to when I first moved to LA more than 25 years ago. I didn’t know anyone here when I first arrived. When I got bored, I used to drive up and down the major streets that cross the city from east to wes t, listening to this song about the “city of angel” being as “lonely as I am. (Don t worry! I have plenty of friends now.)1.Which song is introduced by one of the author’s student?A. The WeightB. Say SomethingC. American PieD.

I looked around and nobody stopped so I just went my way. After a few steps, I turned and asked him whether he needed help. He toldme his house was one station further and he would only need to take the train there. So I reached for his hand to help him stand up.He wanted to take the stairs but I feared that he would hurt himself since he seemed too weak to walk, so I asked him to take the elevator. Even though my mind was trying to turn the danger lights on, I put the thought that I should not go alone with a drunken man out of my mind and accompanied him on the elevator.We arrived on the platform with no incidents. The man's knees seemed to soften, so I asked him to rest on a bench. While sitting there, he thanked me, telling me that I saved him. No, I said, I really did nothing; he saved himself as he walked on his own feet.At the next station, we said our goodbyes. Before I knew it, he left 100 dollars and dashed out of the train. There was no way to give him back his money. I wanted to leave it on the seat, but a young woman who thought it belonged to me ran after me and gave me the note.My initial reaction to getting that money was of shame and I even felt offended. Then I thought he just wanted to thank me, the best way he knew how. Now, my question is —what act of kindness shall I do with these 100 dollars?4.Why was the man sitting on the subway station's floor?A .Because he wanted to go home.B .Because he was seriously ill.C .Because he was waiting for the train.D .Because he was drunk.5.Seeing the money left by the man, the author first felt ________.A .ashamedB .gratefulC .delightedD .frustrated6.How will the author possibly deal with the money?A .Give it back.B .Buy something favorable.C .Give it to people in need.D .Leave it on the seat.7.What can we infer from the passage?A .I helped the man the moment I saw him.B .I thought it unsafe to go alone with the drunken man at first.C .I accompanied the man to take the stairs.D .A young woman ran after me and gave me the note.3.(8分)When I was a very little child, I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world. I would talk to myself, “when I grow up, when I can become rich, I’ll save kids all over the world.”At the age of 17, I began my career here in America, and by 18, I started my first charity organization. I went on to team up with other organizations in the following years, and met, helped, and even lost some of the most beautiful souls, from six-year-old JasminaAnema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia (白白白)—her story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors, to 2012 when my grandmother lost her battle with cancer, which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation (CLF). We’re all human. And we all just want a chance: a chance at life, a chance in education, a chance at a future, really. And at CLF, our mission is to impact as many lives as possible, but it starts with just one.People make it seem too hard to do charity work. The truth is, you don’t have to be rich to help others. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t even have to be college-educated. But it starts with your neighbor, the person right next to you, the person sitting next to you in class, the kid down the block in your neighborhood. You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can. And today, I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person, one organization, one situation that touches your heart. My grandmother always used to say, “If you’ve got a dollar, there’s plenty to share.”8.What did the author want to do at a young age?A.Watch TV.B.Grow up quickly.C.Become wealthy.D.Help other children.9.Which of the following directly caused the author to create and develop the CLF? A.A six-year-old kid’s request.B.Her grandmother’s death of cancer. C.Many volunteers’ inspiration for it.D.Other organizations’ encouragement. 10.What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.A chance. B.A life. C.A task. D.An organization.11.What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph?A.Do little things to help those around them.B.Work very hard to get a college education.C.Challenge their friends to offer help.D.Do charity work when you are rich.4.(8分)As is known to us all,VAR technology has been used in U.S. sports for years. However, it was fully combined with the global game of soccer and made itsdebut(首次亮相) at the 2018 World Cup . VAR stands for video assistant referee. It isactually a team who work together to review certain decisions made by the main referee by watching video replays.The VAR team supported the referees from a centralized video room. The operators selected and provided the best angles from the relevant broadcast cameras plus two additional offside cameras. Throughout a match they are constantly checking for mistakes. They will communicate with the referees only for clear and obvious errors or serious missed incidents. The referee can delay the restart of play at any time to communicate with the VAR team. Once they decide an incident is reviewable, the referee would start an official review. Then they will make a decision based on the information received from the VAR team.The use of video technology is a hot topic among football watchers. Some fans believe that VAR causes too many interruptions, disrupting the flow of the game. But others just want a fair match and to see the correct call no matter what. They argue disruptions already take place as angry players crowd around a referee following a controversial decision. VAR can serve to remove such scenes and get the game moving again. With much money put into modern football, governing bodies are now under great pressure to see that the correct decisions are made on the pitch and VAR is a sure step in that.12.What is VAR?A.very angry refereeB. camerasC. video assistant refereeD. operators who can stop the game13. According to Paragraph 2, who can decide the play?A. Camera assistantB. The main refereeC. VAR teamD. The audience14. What is the author’s attitude towards VAR?A. unconcernedB. negativeC. positiveD. controversial15. What is the best title of the passage?A. The football matchB. VAR used in all sportsC. The main referee’s bless or disguiseD. VAR appearing at World Cup二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)5.(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项。
