great valley in the desert country of Arizona.But you must go there yourself to feel its true size and beauty.The Grand Canyon is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.The Colorado River formed the Grand Canyon over millions of years.Slowly, the river cut down through hard rocks.At the same time，the land was rising.Today，the canyon is one and a half kilometres deep and 445 kilometres long.The oldest rocks at the bottom of the canyon are more than 1 billion years old.The width varies from about 200 metres to 29 kilo-metres across.The rim(边缘) or top of the canyon is about 2，300 metres above sea level on the South Rim, and about 3，000 metres on the other side, the North Rim.As a result, there are different kinds of plants and animals on opposite sides of the canyon.The South Rim has dry desert while the North Rim has tall forests.The canyon looks different at different time of day, and in different seasons.At sunrise and sunset the red, gold, brown and orange colours of the rocks are especially clear and bright.In winter, the canyon is partly covered with snow.The North Rim of the canyon is quieter.It takes all day to drive there from the South Rim because there is only one bridge across the Colorado River.On the way, you go through Navajo Indian lands, and a co lourful pink desert called “The Painted Desert”．You can walk down into the Grand Canyon, or you can go down on the back of a mule(骡子)．You can also take a boat trip down the Colorado River，and camp on the beaches at night.But whether you see the Grand Canyon from the top or the bottom, it will be an experience that you will never forget.1．The best way to feel the size and beauty of the Grand Canyon is to ________．A．see its photographs B．listen to the report about itC．watch its programmes D．travel there yourself2．________ made the Grand Canyon.A．The earthquake B．The water from the Colorado RiverC．The land's rising D．The strong wind3．________ of the canyon is different at different time.A．The scene B．The rim C．The width D．The colours of the rocks4．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．The Grand Canyon is getting deeper and deeper.B．The oldest rocks at the bottom of the canyon are more than 1 billion years old.C．If you want to get the finest beauty of the canyon, you'd better go to its bottom.D．The animals and plants of the two sides of the canyon are of the same kind.BDuring a full moon, the white stone used to build the Taj Mahal shines like a pearl.Visitors are told that it's the best time to see the monument, built by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan for his favourite wife.The Taj Mahal is open for full moon tours only three nights a month, and only for special groups.Full moon or not, however, about 20，000 tourists visit the Taj Mahal every day except Friday, when the monument is closed.Last year, 6.29 million foreigners, mostly from the United States and Western Europe, visited India for leisure, accounting for 16.56 billion in tourism receipts.For sure, many of them visited the Taj Mahal in the city of Agra in Uttar Pradesh state, about 200 kilometre from the capital New Delhi.More than foreigners, however, this country's 1.22 billion people keep the local tourism industry full of energy.The Taj Mahal itself had quantities of visitors when I visited Sunday afternoon.There was hardly room to breathe inside the monument.I must have lost 10 pounds, sweating inside and in the open areas.When the temperature reaches up to nearly 50 degrees Celsius during an average summer in India, the Taj Mahal is shut down.Temperature in Agra has hit a record of 79 degrees Celsius, but that was back in 1932.In recent days, Agra is suffering from a high temperature.That's burning to half death if I were in Manila now.Maybe it is my imagination, but I think even the cows couldn't put up with the heat and hardly moved on the narrow road leading to the Taj Mahal.Neither heat nor rain nor cattle blocking the street can keep away the groups of tourists that are to see the Taj Mahal.And the Indian government is keen to bring in more visitors.Nearly 6.3 million foreign visitors are not a lot for acountry this size, with its wonderful culture and many travel attractions.5．What can we conclude from the passage?A．The author wishes to share his visit to the Taj Mahal.B．The author complains the Taj Mahal is too crowded.C．The author warns people not to visit the Taj Mahal.D．The author introduces the Taj Mahal to readers.6．It is the best to enjoy the Taj Mahal during a full moon ________．A．because visitors are allowed into the Taj Mahal thenB．because visitors are hoping to become the special groupC．because visitors can enjoy the most wonderful Taj MahalD．because visitors can enjoy themselves in a quiet atmosphere7．When the author visited the Taj Mahal ________．A．the temperature was about 50 degrees CelsiusB．visitors were almost burnt to half deathC．he had a wonderful imagination about the buildingD．there were so many visitors in the Taj MahalCChina is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I travelled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a lions of them, all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However, people still use their bicycles to get around.For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colours—silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.It's fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道)．Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied(陪伴) my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的)．To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn't want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back inthe United States.The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.8．According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?A．Because they are convenient and inexpensive.B．Because they are traditional and safe.C．Because they are colourful and available.D．Because they are fast and environment-friendly.9．How did the author feel about his street crossing?A．It was boring. B．It was wonderful.C．It was lively. D．It was difficult.10．Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?A．The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B．The author took great pleasure in biking.C．The author was praised by the other bikers.D．The author was annoyed by the air while riding.Ⅳ读后续写阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

人教版新课标高中英语 2019-2020学年必修二 Unit 1Cultural relics 单元测试 含答案详解
Unit 1Cultural relics本套试卷分为第Ⅰ卷和第Ⅱ卷两部分。
总分120分。
考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)AThere was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care.To water his flowers，he used two buckets.One was a shiny and new bucket.The other was a very old and dilapidated one，which had seen many years of service，but was now past its best.Every morning，the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry them along the path，one on each side，to the flower beds.The new bucket was very proud of itself.It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出)．The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes：before it reached the flower beds，much water had leaked along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say，“See how capable I am！How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day！I don't know why he still bothers you.What a waste of space you are！”And all that the old bucket could say was，“I know I'm not very useful，but I can only do my best.I'm happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me，at least.”One day，the gardener heard that kind of conversation.After watering the flowers as usual，he said，“You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry you back.I want you to look carefully along the path.”Then the two buckets did so.All along the path，they noticed，on the side where the new bucket was carried，there was just bare(光秃秃的) earth；on the other side where the old bucket was carried，there was a joyous row of wild flowers，leading all the way to the garden.1．What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?A．Dirty. B．Dark. C．Worn out. D．Plain-looking.2．The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to________.A．laugh at the old oneB．take pity on the old oneC．show off its beautiful looksD．praise the gardener's kindness3．Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A．Because it was used to keep balance.B．Because it stayed in its best condition.C．Because it was taken as a treasure.D．Because it had its own function.BAlmost every machine with moving parts has wheels, yet no one knows exactly when the first wheel was invented or what it was used for. We do know, however, that they existed over 5，500 years ago in ancient Asia.The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5，100 years old. Evidence suggests that wheels for transport didn't become popular for a while, though. It was probably due to that animals did a perfectly good job of carrying farming tools and humans around.But it could be also due to a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on smooth surfaces, roads with smooth surfaces weren't going to be constructed until there was plenty of demand for them. Eventually, road surfaces did become smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no important changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of modern road design.In the mid-1700s, a Frenchman came up with a new design of road—a base layer(层) of large stones covered with a thin layer of smaller stones. A Scotsman improved on this design in the 1820s and a strong, lasting road surface became a reality. At around the same time, metal hubs(the central part of the wheel)came into being, followed by the wheels that were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearance of tarmacked roads(柏油碎石路面). As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster.4．What might explain why transport wheels didn't become popular for some time?A．Few knew how to use transport wheels.B．Humans carried farming tools just as well.C．Animals were a good means of transport.D．The existence of transport wheels was not known.5．What do we know about road design from the passage?A．It was easier than wheel design.B．It improved after big changes in vehicle design.C．It was promoted by fast-moving vehicles.D．It provided conditions for wheel design to develop.6．What is the passage mainly about?A．The beginning of road design.B．The development of transport wheels.C．The history of public transport.D．The invention of fast-moving vehicles.CTravelling without a map in different countries, I find out about different “styles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office？”Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don't have name signs. In Japan, people use landmarks(地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travellers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”People in Los Angeles, the US, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance by time, not miles. “How far away is the post office？” you ask. “Oh，” they answer, “it's about five minutes from here.” You don't understand completely, “Yes, but how many miles away is it, please？” To this question you won't get an answer, because most probably they don't know it themselves.People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then he'll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.Sometimes a person doesn't know the answer to your question. What happens in the situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Mexico, no one answers “I don't know.” People there believe that “I don't”is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan!However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. It's body language.7．Which of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?A．“Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile.”B．“Turn right at the hospital. The library is right in front of you.”C．“The post office is about five minutes from here.”D．“Follow me, and I will lead you there.”8．What can we know about people in Los Angeles according to the passage?A．They have no sense of direction.B．They are good at reading maps.C．They often give directions by time.D．They'll show you a direction even if they don't know.9．What is Greeks' way to give directions ?A．Using street names. B．Using landmarks.C．Leading people the way. D．Using body language.10．Where is Yucatan?A．In the USA. B．In Japan. C．In Greece. D．In Mexico.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。
