高二英语下学期期末试卷（带答案）第一部分听力（略）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AI clearly remember my mom telling me to drink milk every day—one glass in the morning and another at night．I also remember loving it while my sister thought quite the opposite—she would surreptitiously pour her milk into the sink or water the plants with it! I guess I should thank my mom for making us drink a lot of milk, so rich in calcium（钙）, during those important years．Today, calcium shortage is one of the main concerns of women in their 30s or even early 20s．The great fear is that when we reach our 50s or 60s, osteoprosis（骨质疏松症）will set in．That is why you can see a lot of advertisements for products supposedly containing a lot of calcium．Because calcium is not that easy to acquire from the food we normally eat, busy women these days should take calcium supplements（补充物）．There are a lot of different forms of these---calcium carbonate（碳酸钙），oyster（牡蛎）shell or bone-meal-based calcium supplements．You have to be careful when choosing which kind to take．This is because calcium is not easily absorbed by the body．So the fact that you are taking supplements doesn’t mean that the body is actually benefiting from them．Different supplements may have different instructions on dosage（剂量）and manner of intake．You can ask your doctor to help you determine which supplement is the best for your needs．21. From what the author’s mother did we may inferthat___________________．A．her children had osteoporosisB．she knew her children would benefit from milkC．she must have suffered from osteoprosisD．she didn’t like her daughter who didn’t obey her order22. Based on the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A．The author’s sister will suffer from osteoprosis when reaches her 50s or 60sB．Many businessmen have already been selling products supposedly containing calcium．C．We can’t get enough calcium only from food we eat every day D．Women as young as their 20s should be concerned about calcium shortage23. What does the underlined word “surreptitiously”in the firstparagraph probably mean?A．Honestly B．Frankly C．Secretly D．Curiously24. We may infer from the last paragraphthat____________________．A．what one chooses as a calcium supplement might not workB．one shouldn’t take in calcium without the permission of a doctor C．the more calcium supplements one uses, the more calcium one can take inD．it is dangerous to use calcium supplements without the guidanceBPeople living in the UK take quite a few holidays abroad and in the country each year. Choices made about where to go, how to get there and what to do can either benefit or harm the environment.While on holidayMany of the things you can do to the greener on holiday will be the same things you can do at home—but there are also some extra things too, like avoiding gifts made from endangered plants and animals. Here are some suggestions:●Making the most of locally produced fo od and drink, and local activities and attractions will support people in the area you arevisiting and reduce the need for further environmental influence from transport.●Switching off any air conditioning, heating and lights will help reduce climate change effect.●Save water—some countries suffer from water shortages and saving water can help avoid damage to our natural habitats. Endangered speciesSome gifts and foods available in some countries can be made from endangered plants or animals. Check before you buy, but if you doubt, avoid animal and plant gifts. More details of the types of products to avoid any illegal trade hotspots can be found on the Souvenir Alert webpage.Making a positive contribution to the place you are visiting.There are ways in which your holiday can help support local people and the environment.●There are many opportunities to volunteer and help with projects that conserve and improve natural habitats.●When you are away, or if you are looking for somewhere tovisit, you can support projects or attractions which protect wildlife, such as nature reserves and conservation projects.25. According to the passage, we can _______ to help reduce climate change effect.A. make good use of waterB. buy local food and drinkC. save electricityD. go around on foot26. We should check the gifts and foods before buying because______.A. sometimes they are of poor qualityB. they may not be typical local productsC. some of them will do harm to our healthD. they may be made from endangered animals or plants27We can infer from the passage that ______.A. it is not easy for people to travel abroadB. not everyone can tell an illegal souvenirC. green holidays have been accepted by peopleD. volunteer work is a must for protecting natural habitats28. The passage is mainly about ______.A. travel enjoymentB. the harm to the environmentC. protection of endangered animalsD. greener choices for holidayCIt’s said that professional footballers in the USA can make millions of dollars throughout their careers. Yet statistics show that many eventually run out of money once their playing days are over. The University of Pennsylvania wants to change that andhelpteach American footballers how to rebuild their lives when their sports careers come to an end.“All their life they have focused on football. Deciding what comes next can be difficult.”Says professor Morvarid Taheripour, the head of the athletes’project. “Some people say athletes die two deaths. You kind of die when you stop playing and you die in real life. So they’ve got to come back to life and figure out ‘How am I going to make a living at 25 for maybe another 40 years?”For Taheripour, the partnership with professional athletes is a dream to come true. “It was taking everythin g I love about teaching and yet being able to influence people who are accomplished and hard-working, yet very modest.”But even with help, figuring out the next chapter isn’t easy. Statistics show that 78 percent of professional football players are penniless, divorced or unemployed two years after retiring from their sport. The program tries to help players develop a plan for life after sport and 220 athletes have taken part over the past six years. Darwin Walker is one former student who avoided being a statistic. Today, he runs a number of successful businesses and thanks football for his accomplishments. “The concepts I learned about leadership have all come from playing the game of football,”says Walker. “The amount of study, amount of commitment, and timethat you have to put into it is very much like being a successful business person.”Shifting the skills learned on the field to the workplace seems natural to some, but the numbers show that’s not the case for everyone. Taheripour’s message to his stu dents is a serious one:This is the time to build for the future, he tells them, because no matter how long your athletic career lasts, you are so much more than just an athlete.29 By saying “athletes die two deaths”, the author means ________.A. athletes suffer too many failures in their lifeB. athletes have a sports life and a real lifeC. being an athlete contributes little to lifeD. athletes’later life can be easily rebuilt30. .Why is it difficult for professional athletes to decide what comes next?A. They might have not thought of this during their playing days.B. They have no idea whether to leave the game or not.C. They think as athletes they can make more money.D. They’re not willing to accept a new career.31. What does Darwin Walker manage to avoid?A. Making his sports career come to an end.B. Being unsuccessful in rebuilding his life.C. Going through the problem.D. Making a difference.32. What does the last paragraph imply?A. An athlete should think about more than his athletic career.B. An athlete’s sports career couldn’t last very long.C. An athlete should end his career earlier to build his new life.D. The longer an athlete’s career lasts, the more respect he receives.DDuring World War I, a German spy called Reginald Rowlandworked in the United Kingdom gathering information for Germany about the British army. A box of talcum powder (爽身粉) and other lotions （护肤液）with materials to write secret messages were found in his room when he was caught by British soldiers. He also used invisible (看不见的) ink on shirt collars, in pens, and mixed with cakes of soap to send secret messages.So, if you want to send secret messages, you will need:lemon,a bowl,a thin paintbrush or toothpick,white paper,a hairdryer or light bulbDirections:1. Cut the lemon in half, squeeze (挤) the juice into a bowl, and remove any pulp (果肉).2. Dip the paintbrush or toothpick into the lemon juice.3. Write your message or draw your map on the white paper, working quickly so that you can see what you have written before the lemon juice dries.4. When the juice dries, your message will not be seen. Protect it by writing a normal message in pencil on the other side.5. To reveal the secret message, hold the paper in front of a warm hairdryer or light bulb.33. According to the text, Reginald Rowland _____.A. hated the warB. was from the UKC. worked for GermanyD. was good at making up stories34. Which of the following best describes the step 2 of the directions?35. In sending secret messages, the hairdryer is used to _____.A. show the secret messageB. remove the lemon pulpC. squeeze the juiceD. dry the juice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。

AMr Brown was going away for a week. Before he left, he said to his son, "if anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea.""OK, Dad," said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, "Where is your father?" The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it. He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, "No more."The man was very surprised. He asked, "No more? I met your father last week. When did it happen?""Burnt yesterday evening."1.

B．Writer. C．Researcher. D．Adviser.DThroughout the world, clothing has many uses.It is used to provide protection from the elements.It is also worn to prevent others from seeing specific parts of one's body.However, the parts of the body that must be covered vary widely throughout the world.Some clothing is worn to provide supernatural（神奇的） protection.Wearing a lucky shirt to take an exam is calling for supernatural assistance.People in all cultures use clothing and other forms of bodily decoration to communicate status, intentions and other messages.In North America, we dress differently for business and various leisure activities.North American women are usually much more knowledgeable of and concerned with little difference in messages communicated by clothes than men.At times, this leads to silly mistakes of interpretation of female intentions on the part of men.Of course, clothing styles are also intended to communicate messages to members of the same gender (性别)．Long before we are near enough to talk to someone, their appearance tells their gender,age, economic class, and often even intentions.We begin to recongnize the important cultural clues at an early age.The vocabulary of dress that we learn includes not only items of clothing but also hairstyles，jewellery, and other body decoration.In most cultures, however, the same style of dress communicates different messages depending on the age，gender，and physical appearance of the individual wearing it.Putting on certain types of clothing can change your behavior and the behavior of others towards you.This can be the case with a doctor's white lab coat, or an army uniform.Most uniforms are clearly symbolic so that they can rapidly and unmistakably communicate status.For instance, the strange hairstyle and clothing of the English “punks” are essential aspects of their uniforms.There are many forms of body decoration other than clothes that are used around the world to send messages.These include body and hair paint, and even body deformation（损伤）.When doctors put braces on teeth, they are actually doing the same thing—deforming of reforming（改进） a part of the body to make it more attractive.13．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A．Clothing and Culture B．Communication through ClothingC．Clothing and Social Behavior D．Ways of Sending Messages14．Some people wear lucky shirts to take an exam because they believe________.A．clothes have extraordinary powerB．clothes can hide their fear for the examC．shirts can make them more comfortableD．shirts provide protection against bad weather15．In North America, men sometimes misunderstand women's intention because________.A．men are more careless than womenB．women spend more time on their clothesC．men and women have different views on clothing stylesD．men are careless about the different messages communicated by clothes第二节完形填空 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从1～15各题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

No one tells us that the greatest moments of a lifetime are short, unplanned and nearly always catch us off guard.Not long ago，as I was reading a bedtime story to myseven-year-old daughter, Annie，I became aware of her focused look. She was staring at me with a faraway, blank expression. Apparently, completing The Tale of Samuel Whiskers was not as important as we first thought.I asked what she was thinking about. “Mommy,”she whispered, “I just can't stop looking at your pretty face.”I almost dissolved(溶解) on the spot. Little did she know how many trying moments the glow of her sincerely loving statement would carry me through over the following years.Not long after, I took my four-year-old son to an elegant department store, where the sweet notes of a classic love song drew us toward a tuxedoed(穿晚礼服的) musician playing a grand piano. Sam and I sat down on a marble bench nearby, and he seemed as astonished by the pleasant theme as I was. I didn’t realize that Sam had stood up next to me until he turned, took my face in his little hands and said, “Dance with me.”If only those women walking under the Paris moon knew the joy of such an invitation made by a round-cheeked boy with baby teeth. Although shoppers openly chuckled(咯咯笑) and pointed at us as we glided and whirled(旋转) around the open space, I would not have traded a dance with such a charming young gentleman if I'd been offered the universe.28.

Because she thought she was the happiest one at the moment.D. Because it was very important for the author to dance with her son.31. What does the author want to prove by showing two examples of her kids?A. Her kids love her very much.B. She enjoys staying with her kids.C. The greatest moments of a lifetime always come unexpectedly.D. Those women walking under the moon should enjoy the happiness with kids.DChinese police are joining Italian officers on the streets of Rome and Milan in an experiment aimed at helping tourists from Chinafeel safe, Italy’s interior ministry has announced.The experiment is the first of its kind in Europe, China’s ambassador to Italy, Li Ruiyu, said at a meeting to announce the project, according to a statement from the Italian ministry.The four Chinese officers, who were trained by Italians in Beijing, will wear the same uniforms they wear at home so their compatriots can recognize them easily.More than 3 million Chinese tourists come to Italy every year, according to Liao Jinrong, the director general of the Chinese international co-operation bureau.“This service was planned with Chinese tourists in mind and, if it works well, we may consider other forms of collaboration, given the presence of the Chinese community in our country,”said the interior minister, Angelino Alfano.The officers will share information with Italian police and help Chinese tourists if they need to contact local authorities and diplomats from Monday until 13 May, the ministry said.Liao, the head of the Chinese international co-operation bureau, said the officers’assignment was a “historic moment”recalling that the route between China and Italy was mapped 700 years ago by Venetian merchant traveler Marco Polo.32.

He spoke of the French and their "habit of standing in a queue". Forty years later Paris was the best place to wait in line.However, queuing became popular in Britain too. The Second World War was the golden age of queuing, and people joined any line in the hope that it was a queue for something to buy. This was the source of many Second World War jokes:Shopkeeper to customer: Excuse me, miss, are you pregnant (怀孕) ?Customer: Well, I wasn't when I joined the queue.Today, according to research in America, we (in Britain) can spend up to 5 years of our lives queuing- as compared to twelve months looking for things we have lost. But things may be changing. Many people no longer have the patience to stand in a queue. The law of the jungle (丛林) has begun to operate at bus stops, with people using their arms to push others out of the way.One way to make life easier is to introduce "queue management". Customers at supermarket cheese counters can now take a ticket with a number which appears on a screen when it is their turn. And while they wait for their number, they can do a bit of shopping.In some booking offices there is also a system telling customers how long they may have to wait before they are served.One of the latest technical progress is the use of an electronic scanner (电子识别器) which can read all the contents of your shopping basket or trolley in just a few seconds. If these become popular, queuing in supermarkets may become a thing of the past.But some people just like queuing. One man queued all night for Harrods famous January sale, and then returned home for breakfast at nine o' clock the next morning without going into the shop.1. The joke in Paragraph 2 implies that the young woman ______.A. has been waiting in the queue for a long timeB. doesn't need to stand in the queueC. enjoys standing in the queueD. has stood in the wrong line2. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. The British spend more time queuing than looking for lost things.B. The Americans criticized the British for their way of queuing.C. The British are always patient when they wait in line.D. People queue only when they want to buy something.3. The British try to solve the problem of queuing by all the following EXCEPT _____.A. making a law to prevent queuingB. telling the customers the waiting timeC. using numbered tickets to put the customers in orderD. checking the price of the goods customers buy with a scanner4. We can infer from the passage that ______.A. queue management doesn’t work wellB. there is still queuing in EnglandC. we don't see much queuing in ParisD. the French like queuing more than the British四、短文改错I've really got to do something to lose weight becauseI'm getting much too fat.
