外研版高二上期末英语试卷1(附答案及详细解析)
外研版高二（上）期末英语试卷第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分25.0分）第一节（共3小题；每小题2.5分，满分25.0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．1．（7.5分）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 andsafety 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．2．（10分）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．（1）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．（2）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．（3）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．3．（7.5分）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， Yinplans to house three strays in his apartment．（1）What does the underlined word "exacerbated" in Paragraph 3 mean？A． WorsenedB． ImprovedC． ReplacedD． Touched（2）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．（3）What is the best title for the text？A． Stray cats enjoy themselves at the Cat ShedB． Volunteers make stray cats live a better lifeC． "Stray" youngsters in Beijing need healingD． Furry friends promote stress﹣free lives第二节（共1小题；每小题10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．4．（10分）Eyesight is the sense that you rely upon the most． Since we live in a world that requires your eyes to routinely stare at the small type and images on cell phones， computer screens， and televisions， it is important for you to improve and protect your eyesight．（1）．Eyes are just like any other part of the body．（2）．Similar to other organs， a diet high in fruits and vegetables and low in sugar and fatty foods will go a long way in maintaining healthy eyes．（3）．Plan to exercise your eyes when you wake up， before going to bed， or when your eyes are tired． Make sure your hands are clean so that you do not hurt your eyes and your mind is relaxed before starting．Since you use your eyes every waking moment， give them lots of rest and relaxation by taking breaks throughout the day and getting enough sleep every night to fully rest，repair，and recover your vision．（4）． In the short term， it can cause eye strain （疲劳） or dry eyes． In the long term，it can lead to damage to the optic nerve （视觉神经）， which can cause pain and damage your vision． Besides， most jobs nowadays involve some degree of computer usage， meaning almost everyone willbe spending time in front of a computer．（5）．To avoid this， you'll have to properly try to limit your screen time by routinely taking breaks and exercising your eyes．A． They need nutrition to function well．B． Close your eyes when exercising your eyes．C． A lack of sleep will weaken your vision health．D． You can enjoy your vision for the rest of your life．E． Unfortunately， this can result

This technological advancement has brought both benefits and challenges to our society.In the past, communication was limited to letters, phone calls, and face-to-face meetings. Now, with email, social media, and instant messaging, we can communicate instantly with anyone, regardless of their location. This has greatly increased efficiency and convenience in our daily lives. However, it has also led to a decline in face-to-face interactions and a decrease in written communication skills.Information accessibility has also been greatly enhanced by the Internet. Libraries, once the go-to source for research, are now just one of many options. With a simple online search, we can find articles, books, and other resources in seconds. This has made education and self-learning more accessible to a wider audience. On the other hand, it has raised concerns about the reliability and accuracy of online information.Online shopping has become increasingly popular, offering convenience and a wide variety of choices. Customers can compare prices, read reviews, and even have products delivered to their doorstep. This has changed the retail landscape and forced traditional brick-and-mortar stores to adapt. However, there are concerns about the environmental impact of online shopping and the potential for fraud.1、What is the main topic of the passage?A. The advantages of the InternetB.
