So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could lay his hands on, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown. "There's so much to learn," he'd say. "Though we're born stupid, only the stupid remain that way.” He was determined that none of h is children would be denied an education.Thus, Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request. And dinner timeseemed perfect for sharing what we had learned. We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant, it was never taken lightly. Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment, always to the point. Then came the moment—the time to share the day's new learning. Papa, at the head of the table, would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine, ready to listen. "Felice," he'd say, "tell me what you learned today.” "I learned that the population of Nepal is ....” Silence.Papa was thinking about what was said, as if the salvation of the world would depend upon it. “The population of Nepal. Hmm. Well . . . . ” he’d say. “Get the map; let's see where Nepal is.” And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing experiences and participating in one another's education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting our input, affirming our value, giving us a sense of dignity, Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of the most famous educators. They were imparting what Papa had known all along—the value of continual learning. His technique has served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can never tell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.25. What do we know from the first paragraph?A. The author's father was born in a worker's family.B. Those born stupid could not change their life.C. The town elders wanted to learn about the world.D. The poor could hardly afford school education.26. The underlined word "it" in the second paragraph refers to ___ .A. one new thingB. a requestC. the newsD. some comment27. It can be learned from the passage that the author __ .A. enjoyed talking about newsB. knew very well about NepalC. felt regret about those wasted daysD . appreciated his father's educational technique28. The author's father can be best described as __ .A. an educator expert at training future teachersB. a parent insistent on his children's educationC. a participant willing to share his knowledgeD. a teacher strict about everything his students didC In ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modern businesses have been following his lead with more tactics（策略）.One tactic involves where to display the goods. For example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food later in their trip. In department stores, section is generally next to the women’s cosmetics(化妆品) section：while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers’ senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wine went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decision in the first few second upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the poll through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.29. Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?A. To save customers times.B. To show they are high quality foods.C. To help sell junk food.D. To sell them at discount prices.30. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?A. Opening the store early in the morning.B. Displaying British wines next to French ones.C. Inviting customers to play music.D. Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.31. What is the California builder’s story intended to prove?A. The house structure is a key factor customers consider.B. The more costly the house is, the better it sells.C. An ocean view is much to the customers’ taste.D. A good first impression increases sales.32. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.B. To introduces how businesses have grown from the past.C. To report researches on customer behavior.D. To show dishonest business practices.D FLORENCE, Italy—Svetlana Cojochru feels hurt. The Moldovan has lived here seven years as a caregiver to Italian kids and the elderly, but in order to stay she’s had to prove her language skills by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary friend and answer a fictional job ad.Italy is the latest Western European country trying to control a growing immigrant(移民) population by demanding language skills in exchange for work permits, or in some cases, citizenship.Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs, such measures will become more a vehicle for intolerance than integration(融合). Others say it’s only natural that newcomers learn the language of their host nation, seeing i t as a condition to ensure they can contribute to society.Other European countries laid down a similar requirement for immigrants, and some terms are even tougher. The governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and promote understanding across cultures.Italy, which has a much weaker tradition of immigration, has witnessed a sharp increase in immigration in recent years. In 1990, immigrants numbered some 1.14 million out of Italy’s then 56.7 million people, or about 2 percent. At the start of this year, foreigners living in Italy amounted to 4.56 million of a total population of 60.6 million, or 7.5 percent, with immigrants’children accounting for an even larger percentage of births in Italy.Cojochru, the Moldovan caregiver, hoped obtaining permanent residence(居住权) would help her bring her two children to Italy; they live with her sister in Moldova, where salaries are among the lowest in Europe. She was skeptical that the language requirement would encourage integration.Itali ans always “see me as a foreigner,” an outsider, even though she’s stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently, she said.33. Why does Cojochru have to take a language test?A. To continue to stay in Italy.B. To teach her children Italian.C. To find a better job in Italy.D. To better mix with the Italians.34. Some people worry that the new language requirement may ________.A. reduce Italy’s population quicklyB. cause conflicts among peopleC. lead to financial difficultiesD. put pressure on schools35. What do we know about Cojochru?A. She lives with her sister now in Italy.B. She enjoys learning the Italian language.C. She speaks Italian well enough for her job.D. She wishes to go back to her home country.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。

陕西省咸阳市2020学年高二英语下学期第一次月考试题(无答案)

2020学年度第二学期第一次月考高二英语试题班级姓名第I卷选择题（满分80分）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，每小题2分，共40分）第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）AThirty years ago I worked in a company. My job was to sell the cars. I was young and strong and I had been to most parts of the world and I spent one fifth of my time in the trains or planes. I liked such a life and sometimes I called myself “traveler”.But one day I got into trouble. It was a cold morning. It blew heavily and the ground was covered with thick snow outside. I was still in bed though it was nine. I finished a long journey the day before and decided to have a good rest. Suddenly the telephone rang and my manager told me to fly to New York to take part in an important meeting. I had to get up and after a quick breakfast I hurried to the airport. The taxi went slowly and I missed the first flight. I had to take the next one. It meant I would wait for nearly five hours in the waiting-room. But five hours later a passenger said the information showed there was a bomb in our plane and the policemen were looking for it. And another five hours passed and most passengers lost their patience before we were allowed to get on the plane. At the entrance each passenger and their baggage had to be examined. A young man who seemed a soldier shoute d at the policemen at the entrance, “If I had a gun in my baggage, I would shoot you two hours ago!”1．The writer called himself “traveler” because he .A．sold cars for his company B．often took trains and cars C．traveled all over the world D．liked traveling in many places2．He didn’t get up until the phone rang because he .A．felt very cold outside B．wanted to have a rest that dayC．was going to have a meeting D．was waiting for the manager’s call3．The taxi went slowly because .A．there was much snow on the roadB．it was very cold that morningC．the driver didn’t know he would fly to New YorkD．the manager told him not to hurry4．The young man became angry because he .A．wouldn’t be examinedB．had a gun in his baggageC．waited for a long time at the airportD．hated the policemen at the entrance5. The young man waited for before getting on the plane.A. five hoursB. ten hoursC. fifteen hoursD. twenty hoursBI think machine power is better than human power because we cannot survive without our daily used machines like bikes, coolers, computers, etc.Started on 14-Apr-2020 By SmithE-mail: rksscet12@Johnson Yes, it’s very clear that machine power is better than6-May-2020 man power. But machine power has its limitations (局限).It cannot survive without electricity and manhandling. Ifit doesn’t have these two then it is completely useless.So man shoul d not completely depend on machines. One morepoint is that because of the use of machines man has becomelazy. This laziness has brought in many problems likeobesity, arthritis (关节炎) and other health problems. ButI am not saying that man should completely turn fromma-chine power to man power. He should have a balance ofboth. Even I can’t think of life without a car, a com puterand a cooler.Sally 9-May-2020Humans only created the machines. So, human power is greater than machine power. To d o the things quickly we created the machines. But machines cannot think. That thinking power beats machine power.Tina17-May-2020But without humans there is no value of any machine. If someone wants to use his machine perfectly then one must have expert labor or man power.Tommy19-May-2020Hi to all, my opin ion is that human power is more powerful than machine power, because human beings created the machines. Human brain works more com-pared to machines.Mike20-May-2020I think human power is better than ma-chine power because even if we travel on foot to near places the money will not be wasted and we can get exercise.6.Who agrees with Smith generally?A. Tommy.B. Tina.C. Sally.D. Johnson.7. According to Johnson, man should ______.A. keep a balance between human power and ma-chine powerB. completely depend on machine powerC. turn from machine power to man power completelyD. live a life without a car, a computer or a cooler8. Sally thinks that human power is better than machine power because ______.A. machines are useless without electricityB. machine power can make people become lazyC. machines can’t think like h uman beingsD. human brain can do things quickly9. Which of the following questions are the speakers talking about in the passage?A. Will machine power defeat human power?B. Which is better, human power or machine power?C. What limitations does machine power have?D. Will machines think in the future?CTracy Caulkins is known as the first American to set an American record and win an American title in each of four swimming strokes: breaststroke, butterfly, backstroke, freestyle.Tracy Caulkins was born in Minnesota and lived in Iowa until she was six. She began swimming when she was eight, after the family had moved to Nashville, Tennessee. While unwilling at first to swim in cold water or get her face wet, she began to train in earnest (认真地) as her talent became clear. Though her father worked for the public schools, the family sent her to a private school when the public schools could not accommodate (适应) her training schedule.At age 13, Tracy Caulkins took part in the trials for the 1976 Olympics, but did not make the team. She continued to win national and international titles, and was disappointed in 1980 when the U.S. didn’t attend the Moscow Olympics. She continued to train and compete.In 1981, Tracy Caulkins began college, graduating in 1985. In college, she continued competing and training, though she had slowed down from her peak (顶峰) years.Caulkins trained especially hard for the 1984 Olympics, and not only made the team, but was captain of the swim team, and at Los Angeles, won three gold medals and was named Sportswoman of the Year by the U.S. Olympic Committee. After that she retired from swimming, and was a commentator (解说员) for swimming events as well as taking advantage of her fame to do business.Tracy Caulkins married Australian swimmer, Mark Stockwell, in 1991, their romance having begun at the 1984 Olympics when he jumped into a warm-up pool to introduce himself. They married in Nashville and moved to Australia, where they had three children who have dual citizenship. Caulkins continued to be professionally involved in sports.10. Where did Tracy Caulkins begin swimming?A. In Los Angeles.B. In Iowa.C. In Minnesota.D. In Tennessee.11. Tracy Caulkins was sent to a private school because _____.A. the schedule of the public school wasn’t suitable for herB. her parents had to work in the schoolC. her family had moved to Nashville, TennesseeD. she showed strong interest in swimming12. Which Olympic Games did Tracy Caulkins attend?A. The 1976 Olympic Games.B. The 1980 Olympic Games.C. The 1984 Olympic Games.D. The 1992 Olympic Games.13. Give the correct order of the following events in Tracy Caulkins’ life.a. She was named Sportswoman of the Year.b. She became a commentator.c. She got married.d. She went to college.e. She attended the Olympics.A. d; e; a; b; cB. d; e; c; b; aC. d; a; e; c; bD. d; e; a; c; bDFor 40 years, the people of London have been happy to discover in their parks a bird that seems to have made its way from the Himalayas to the capital of England. With its shocking green body, red mouth, long tail and noisy screech, the rose-ringed parakeet (长尾小鹦鹉) brought a vivid splash of colour to parks in and around London.However, the parakeets are no longer welcome. The government has suddenly woken up to the fact that there are many more parakeets in and around London making life harder for the local bird population. Government experts put the number of parakeets at around 30,000. They fear that if the number of parakeets keeps rising, these birds will push out local birds like wood-peckers, starlings and nuthatches from trees to build their own nests.Not only that. According to an online report by The Independent, the parakeets will then also get control of most of the food available in the parks —seeds, berries, fruit and nuts. The local bird population will thenhave a hard time staying alive. An organization called the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) has asked the government to investigate (调查) what kind of a threat the parakeet brings to local birds. If the government decides that these birds are indeed a threat to local birds, steps will be taken to control the number of parakeets.The most surprising thing about the case of the rose-ringed parakeet is that no one quite knows how the parakeets came from India and started breeding (繁殖) in areas around London.14. Parakeets are no longer welcome mainly because ______.A. the local birds are being driven outB. the government doesn’t like the birdsC. they a re a threat to people’s healthD. people have a great fear of this kind of birds15. According to an online report by The Independent, ______.A. the parakeets’ future threat is impossibleB. the number of the parakeets is around 3,000C. the parakeets should fly back to the HimalayasD. the local birds won’t have enough food第二节阅读理解七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)第三节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
