After climbing up a hill for a panoramic(全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn’t want to mess with that.Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined” it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure iscaptured(捕捉) and frozen on some stranger’s bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don’t even know has been immortalized(使……永存). In some ways, she lives in my house.Perhaps we all live in each others’ spaces. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.4. What happened when the author was about to take a photo?A. Her camera stopped working.B. A woman blocked her view.C. Someone asked her to leave.D. A friend approached from behind.5. In the author’s opinion, what makes the photo so alive?A. The rich color of the landscape.B. The perfect positioning of the camera.C. The woman’s existence in the photo.D. The soft sunlight that summer day.6. The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand ________.A. the need to be close to natureB. the importance of private spaceC. the joy of the vacation in ItalyD. the shared passion for beauty7. The passage can be seen as the author’s reflections upon _________.A. a particular life experienceB. the pleasure of travelingC. the art of photographyD. a lost friendshipCOur room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night. I used to take long walks along the water. The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly. The area was very quiet and peaceful, and fairly deserted.The last evening of our vacation, however, we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre. We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us. He was tall and wore a baseball cap. We didn’t have any cell phones on us. I never saw Dad as worried as he was then andhad had such a good time in town. Now, the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation. We could hear the man’s footsteps getting closer. Dad’s face was almost pale. The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden, the nearby vending (自动贩卖) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda! The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight. My parents were shaking, but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs, and actually saved us, but no one was around at all.Not a soul. It’s one vacation I will never forget.8.Where did the author spend her vacation?A. Near a lake.B. In a village.C. At the seaside.D. In a mountain.9.What happened on the last evening of their vacation?A. They lost their way.B. Their cell phones were missing.C. Their money was stolen.D. They were followed by a stranger.10.The underlined word “overwhelm” in Paragraph 2 means ________.A. moveB. controlC. exciteD. impress11.What helped them get out of the trouble?A. Their quick action.B. Other people’s kind help.C. The young man’s warning.D. The noise from the vending machine.DI work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already z.been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down. Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all —LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.12.What is unavoi dable in the author’s rescue work according ro paragraph 1?A.Efforts made in vain.B.Getting injured in his work.C.Feeling uncertain about his future.D.Creatures forced out of their homes.13.Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To rescue a woman.B.To take care of a woman.C.To look at a baby owl.D.To cure a young owl.14.What made the chick calm down?A.A new nest.B.Some food.C.A recording.D.Its parents.15.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It’s unexpected.B. It’s b eautiful.C. It’s humorous.D. It’s discouragingE第二节七选五根据内容, 从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

2019-2020学年黑龙江省高二上学期月考英语试题(Word版)

黑龙江省2019-2020学年高二上学期月考英语试卷第I卷(选择题,共70分)I.阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40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。

AA young couple decided to get married. As the big day drew nearer and nearer, they both grew nervous because each of them had a problem. The bridegroom decided to ask his father for advice. “Dad,” he said, “I love Lily very much, but I have very smelly feet, so I’m afraid that she will not put up with them.” His father said, “All you have to do is to wash your feet as often as possible, and you should always wear socks, even when you go to bed.”Well, it seemed a workable solution, the young man thought.The young woman turned to her mother. “Mom,” she said, “My morning breath is so bad that I’m afraid my new husband will not want to live i n the same room with me. I love him. I can’t live without him.”Her mother said, “In the morning,get straight out of bed when you wake up, and head for the bathroom and brush your teeth. Don’t say any word before you brush your teeth.”The young woman followed her mother’s advice.They were finally married in a wonderful ceremony. Not forgetting the advice each had received, they carefully spent every day. The husband wore his socks every night and the wife kept her mornings silent; they did quite well until about a month later. Just before dawn, the husband woke only to find that one of his socks was gone! Thinking of the terrible result, he felt frightened at once. He jumped up and began to search the bed for his sock in a hurry. Of course, this made the wife wake. Without thinking, the wife asked, “What on earth are you doing?”The husband stopped in surprise, and then he cried, “Oh, no! You must have swallowed(吞) my sock!”1.What troubled the young man before he got married?A.His feet had an unpleasant smell.B.He was unprepared for the big day.C.He was too poor to marry the girl.D.His habit was too bad to be known.2.The underl ined word “bridegroom” in the first paragraph means .A.a man who has a few big troublesB.a man who hates to wash his feetC.a man who believes his familiesD.a man who will get married soon3.Why did the husband feel frightened?A.Because he forgot to wear the socks.B.Because one of his socks was missing.C.Because his wife might find the truth.D.Because it would disappoint his father.4.The husband said the last sentence of the passage because .A.his wife was very hungry in the morningB.his wife often dreamed of eating thingsC.he wanted to have his wife buy new socksD.he found his wife’s breath very smellyBCold weather has a great effect on how our minds and our bodies work. Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that u se the word “cold”. For centuries, the body’s blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, for example, are said to be cold-blooded. Cold-blooded people act in merciless ways. They may do cruel things to others, and not by accident. For example, a newspaper says the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. The killer murdered someone, not in self-defense. He seemed to kill with no emotion.Cold can affect other parts of the body, the feet, for example. Heavy socks can warm your feet if your feet are really cold. But there is an expression—to get cold feet—that has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you had decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have given up the position. All the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.Cold can also affect your shoulder. You give someone the cold shoulder when you refuse to speak to them. You treat them in a distant, cold way. The expression probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face-to-face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone.Out in the cold is an expression often heard. It means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise. He was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be.5.The text is intended to tell us that.A.cold weather has a great effect on human bodiesB.many English expressions contain the word “cold”C.cold is a word all used to describe human emotionsD.the word cold has many different meanings in English6.Which of the following can best describe a person who is unwilling to offer anything to others?A.Cold-blooded.B.To get cold feet.C.A cold shoulder.D.A cold fish.7.If a teacher gives all the boys except Tom a pen as a prize, you can say Tom.A.is given the cold shoulderB.is punished by a cold fishC.is left out in the coldD.has got cold feetCWhat is the best way to catch someone who is telling a lie?For a long time, the traditional method of catching liars was to watch their body language. Many people—from parents to police officers depend on this method. But does a person’s body tell us the truth?According to a new study, it is not the case. Researchers in the UK recentlyfound that talking seems to be the best way to smoke out a liar. Their study took place at an airport.The researchers asked volunteers to pretend they were real passengers and then lie to airport security officers. Some of the officers used conversation methods to question them, while other officers depend on their body language. The officers using the talking method were 20 times more likely to catch the liarsLike many methods, this talking technique has a name. It is called Controlled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short. Here are four ways of catching a liar.①Use open-ended questions.These are the opposite of “Yes”and“No”question. Open-ended questions force the person to continue the story of their lies until they are caught in their own web of lies.②Surprise them.Ask questions they may not think you are going to ask. Ask questions that are surprising or off-topic.This will make it harder for them to keep lying.③Look for small details that do not make sense.Ask them details in their stories and look for facts that seem to disagree with each other. But do not let them know you know. Just let them dig themselves deeper into a hole.④Watch for changes in confidence and speaking styles.Liars will often change their speaking styles when they are questioned. For example, when they feel in control they may be very talkative. But if they feel they are losing control, they may not talk much at all.8.What is the best title of this passage?A.How to Catch a LiarB.Airport Security ImprovedE Method Never FailsD.Lie with Body Language9.Which of the following methods is most likely to help you catch a liar?A.Ask the person if he is telling the truth.B.Surprise the person by raising your voice.C.Focus on the person’s body language.D.Notice changes in the person’s confidence.10.Why should you ask open-ended questions in order to catch a liar?A.Because they are easy to answer.B.Because they are harder to lie about.C.Because they are off the topic.D.Because they change their talking style.11.Who does the word “them” refer to in the four th paragraph?A.Security officers.B.Real passengers.C.Study volunteers.D.English researchers.DAmericans can travel almost anywhere they choose. But to protect its people, the government lists a few dangerous places where Americans cannot go. These places are unfriendly countries or countries at war. There, the travelers might not be safe. These countries are listed in a small book called a passport .This passport is for the safety of its traveling people. It is also a government’s pledge (保证) that the people will follow the rules of the host country. To receive a passport from the government, a traveler must show that he is an American citizen .An American cannot go abroad without a passport. Only the close countries such as Canada and Mexico do not ask for passports. The traveler’s picture is inside the passport. Children traveling with their parents are also in one parent’s passport.Thousands of people from the United States visit other countries every year. An American traveler might carry plane tickets, money, clothing and many other things. But the most important thing that he carries in another country is his passport.12. Why does a traveler need a passport?A. It helps to protect the travelling people.B. It helps to know where he will go.C. He needs to take pictures often.D. He needs to carry more when he travels.13. A passport is not needed when an American goes to .A. European countriesB. Dangerous areasC. Canada or MexicoD. Russia and China14. Which statement does the passage lead you to believe? .A. some countries don’t ask for passports.B. people should take care of their passports.C. money is more important than a passportD. children are never included in a passport15. We can know from the text that .A. Americans like to travelB. a traveler is not safe in most countriesC. children can’t travel abroadD. Americans abroad only need a passport七选五: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。

He found it broken, and in need of a lot of repair work. his goal was to have everything done in time for his first service on Christmas Eve.He worked hard. However, when John went to the church on Dec. 21, his heart sank: a large area of plaster (石膏) had fallen off the front wall due to a terrible storm the night before. John headed home, and on the way he stopped at a market selling items for charity.One of the items was an exquisite( 精致的)handmade tablecloth. It was just the right size to cover up the hole in the front wall. He bought it and headed back to the church. It started to snow. An old woman had missed her bus, and he invited her to wait in the warm church for the next one. As John put up the tablecloth the womanasked him to check the corner for the initials(手写字母).

Just like when we try to grab a sponge(海绵) that is full of water, some water will run out of it. But sometimes we try to remember everything a speaker says and try to take in a speaker’s every word as if every word was equally important. We try to remember all the names, all the dates, and all the places. In the process we often miss the speaker’s main point.Erik Waldman works at a design company. Knowing he had never been good at budgeting his money, he was determined to begin thinking about his economic future. When his employer circulated an e-mail announcing a financial planning workshop(研讨会), Erik signed up right away.The first session was about retirement planning. Simone Fisher, the lecturer, explained that 7 of 10 Americans between the ages of 22 and 35 do not have a regular savings plan. Erik wrote down every number Simone mentioned."If you want to have a retirement income equal to 75 percent of your current salary," Simone continued, "you will need to save at least of 6 percent of your present earnings, taking into account future inflation rates(通货膨胀率). In the meantime, I want to stress that the most important thing is to start saving now."Erik recorded all the statistics Simone used. When she opened the floor(自由发言) for question, Erik raised his hand and said, "I have two question. When is the best time to start saving for retirement? And how can I figure out my savings target if I don’t know what inflation rates will be in the future?"This is a typical example of losing the speaker’s point by concentrat ing on details. Erik had fixed his mind on remembering all the statisti cs in Simone’s presentation, but he blocked out the main message. Rather than trying to remember everything, we should concentrate on main ideas and evidence.32.
