协作校2019-2020学年高二下学期期中考试英语试题（外研）一、阅读选择1. 阅读理解At the office that day, Martha was left to keep her eyes open until after the lunch hour. Then Mr Max Cohen brought her a document to copy. She was so anxious she had to start afresh three times. And when he came to fetch it, all that had been achieved were the words "Memorandum of an Agreement of Sale" typed across the top of the sheet. She shrank under his impatient assurance that it did not matter in the least, and she must take her time. Her fingers were heavy and trembling, and her head was thick. To type two pages of his small neat writing into something clean and pleasant to look at seemed to her, just then, an impossibly difficult task. He went home without coming to her desk again, and she decided she would come early next morning and do it before anyone else arrived.Mrs Buss, on her way out, asked, "Have you got any certificates?" Martha said no. She had learned to type at home. Mrs Buss said nothing, but merely nodded absent-mindedly, for her eyes were on the elegant Mrs Jasper Cohen. Martha couldbarely see where she was going as she left the office. What she said to herself was, "I won't spend the rest of my life typing this stupid jargon".She then went into the building of the ZambesiNews. She was going to see if Mr Spur, an old journalist whom she had known as a child, could offer her any kind of position. She was in the building about half an hour, and when she came out, her face was hot with embarrassment. It had been so painful she could not bear to remember what had happened. What she must remember was that she had no qualifications at all.1.（1） Why did Martha find her first day at the officedifficult?A . She was too nervous to think.B . Mr Cohen was not easy to please.C . The task given to her was very difficult.D . She was not used to working under pressure.2.（2） By the end of the day, which of the following was trueof Martha?A . She had decided to work overtime.B . She hadn't finished her typing work.C . She hadn't thought she would be blamed.D . She knew Mr Cohen was disappointed in her.3.（3） What might be Mrs Buss's attitude towards Martha?A . She seemed eager to help her.B . She seemed uninterested in her.C . She seemed to have taken a dislike toher. D . She seemed concerned about her lack of qualifications.2. 阅读理解A lot of us lose life's tough situations by mounting a frontal attack when a touch of humor might well enable us to chalk up a win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, Sam, who hit a traffic jam on the way to work. Although there was a good reason for Sam's constant lateness-serious illness at home, he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn't work any longer. His boss was probably already pacing up and down with a dismissal speech prepared.He was. Sam entered the office at 9:35. The place was as quiet as a locker room. Sam's boss approached him. Suddenly, Sam reached out his hand. "How do you do!" he said. "I' m Sam Maynard. I'm applying for a job which I understand became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?" The room exploded in laughter. The boss smiled and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard saved his job with the only tool that could win a laugh.Here is another example. An English hostess was giving a formal dinner for eight distinguished guests. She had asked her son to serve a large roast turkey. The boy only succeeded in dropping the bird onto the dining-room floor. Moving only her head, the hostess smiled at her son, "No harm, Daniel," shesaid, "just pick it up and take it back to the kitchen", she said clearly so he would think about what she was saying and bring in the other one. Some humorous words changed the dinner from a red-faced embarrassment to a ton of fun.Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected(忽视)means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for making up differences, saying sorry, saying no, criticizing, and getting the other person to do what you want without his losing face. Also, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people are in any other places.Of course, humor is often more than a laughing matter. In its potent guises(有效的伪装), it has a Trojan-horse(特洛伊木马)nature: no one goes on guard against a laugh; we let it in because it looks like a little wooden toy. Once inside, however, it can turn a city to reform, to rebellion(反抗), to resistance.1.（1） What can the underlined words "chalk up" inParagraph 1 be replaced by?A . pay forB . respond toC . think of recordingD . succeed in getting2.（2） How does the author explain the power of humor?A . By using examples.B . By making comparisons.C . By introducing study results.D . By setting clown general rules.3.（3） What does the author mean by mentioning humor'sTrojan-horse nature?A . It is but a toy.B . It catches us unaware.C . We usually resist its effect.D . We seldom really understand it.3. 阅读理解On April 12th, two African American men walked into a Starbucks in Philadelphia, and sat down to wait for their friend. Because they had not bought anything, an employee asked them to leave. When the two men refused, the employee called the police, and in minutes, they were arrested. It was not until later that day that they were let go.The video of this incident posted on Twitter went viral. People across the US were outraged. Unfortunately, these practices are not uncommon today. This incident is just one example of implicit bias(内隐偏见), something that is a part of human nature.Most of the time, implicit bias refers to people showing negative associations towards people of a different race. Starting from a young age, these feelings develop unconsciously and naturally, because our brain draws associations based on our background, cultural environment and personal experiences.Implicit bias affects our everyday speech and actions andthese unconscious decisions can be harmful to our society. There have been many examples of blacks unfairly killed by white officers, such as in the cases of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling, which happened only two years ago. Implicit bias affects the justice system, our medical system where studies show minorities are less likely to be taken seriously, and job placements where white males are likely to be judged as more capable compared to women and other minorities.Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson and the police have publicly apologized to the two men, and Starbucks will be holding an anti-bias training meeting on May 29th. All Starbucks stores will be closed on that day. However, critics and experts have said that such training is done "for show" rather than to promote change.To address this issue, many experts agree that what the world needs is a long-term program that targets the root cause. It also starts with promoting diversity in children from an early age when they have friends and playmates from different races and cultures.1.（1） What does the underlined word "outraged" inParagraph 2 probably mean?A . Very angry.B . Quite curious.C . Very delighted.D . Quite puzzled.2.（2） What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A . The nature of implicit bias.B . The examples of implicit bias.C . The basic concepts of implicit bias.D . The negative effects of implicit bias.3.（3） What might experts think of the anti-bias trainingmeeting?A . It will be a shame for StarbucksB . lt will be a meaningless practice.C . It will raise the police's reputation.D . lt will raise public awareness of anti-bias.4.（4） What might many experts agree with?A . Starbucks should be closed.B . Implicit bias should be ignored.C . Children should be taught to avoid implicit bias.D . Implicit bias should be dealt with by the policemen.二、任务型阅读4. 任务型阅读My husband and I had tried for many years to have children, but it just never happened. So we applied to be fosterparents(养父母). We decided we should start with an older child for a number of reasons. Since we both worked, child care might be a problem. Our dog Corby might be a bit too energetic for a young child.________We sat back and prepared to wait for the few months they thought it might take to get a school-age child to pass—which was why we were at a loss when theagency called us within weeks, just before Christmas, and asked if we would take Kaleb, a two-and-a-half-year-old boy, for a few months.This wasn't what we had discussed a few weeks before.________It was such short notice. We had made holiday plans and most of all, the boy was toddler(初学走路的孩子)! We went back and forth, and in the end, we just couldn't say no.The day was set for Kaleb to arrive. We went outside to greet our little guest. But before we could even reach the child, I heard a noise from behind me. ________I gasped(因惊异吸气). Corby would frighten Kaleb——probably even knock him down.Corby reached Kaleb before either of us could grab her. She hounded up to the boy and immediately began licking his face with joy. ________. His face light up with excitement, he cried, "Can this be my dog?Kaleb came to stay those few months. ________Yes, we'adopted Kaleb. He became ou r son, and Corby…well, she couldn't have been happier. She turned out to be Kaleb's dog, after all.A. Privately, I was full of doubts.B. There were so many difficulties,C. Eight and a half years later, he is still with us.D. Turning, I saw Corby heading straight for the little boy.E. In our hurry, we must not have closed the door completely.F. And honestly, we were a little nervous about taking on a baby.G. In response, this little boy threw his arms around the dog's neck and turned toward us.三、完形填空5. 完形填空History rocks!

The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up 20 minutes later, lying face down in muddy water. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a tree and muddy road. When Mrs. Franco came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.The news of James regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a compellent answer as to why this should happen. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since James lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was another sudden shock.4．The reason why James attempted to kill himself was that ________.A．a terrible electrical accident happened to himB．nobody in the whole world cared about himC．he was struck by the lightning once moreD．he had to live in a dark and silent world5．What was James doing when he was struck by the lightning?A．Sheltering from the rain under a tree. B．Putting an end to his life.C．Taking a walk with a stick. D．Lying on the ground.6．What does the underlined word “compellent” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Gradual. B．Wrong. C．Convincing. D．True.7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Terrible Electrical Accident B．What a Sudden ShockC．An Unforgettable Adventure D．James Franco and His wifeCThis could be the perfect gift for the partner,who embarrasses you on the dance floor.Smart socks,which can teach to dance,may be the answer for anyone with two left feet.The socks have been developed as a running tool to help runners improve their skills.Thanks to the socks,users can accurately record not only how far and fast they run but also how well.It means the user maximizes their performance,and reduces damage to body and prevents hurt.The hi-tech socks are made of special fibers that watch the movements of your feet.They look,feel and can be washed like normal clothes.Sensors（传感器）record each movement and send it by an ankle transmitter（脚踝发射器）to a smart phone. Then a “virtual coach” application shows the information and can tell the user what they are doing wrong,and help to improve skill in any task with feet.The socks should be useful to athletes and weekend joggers."People think running is so easy and of course everybody can do it but not necessarily safely and well,"Dr Davide Vigano said.A recent study showed that between 60 and 80 percent of runners got hurt per year.This is pretty much more than any other human activity.Researchers say the technology can also be developed to teach people how to dance,play sports such as golf,or even to help to teach women to walk better in high heels.Mr.Vigano said,“People could all benefit from the idea.We have had interest from all sorts of sports,like skiing, football,cycling and golf.Anything where you have to use your feet can use it.It could even be put in high heels to hel p women walk in them safely.”Socks are just the start,and the technology could be used in gloves,hats and boots.The socks,anklet and software package,are expected to be sold for around￡120,which will go on sale in March.8．What does the underlined part "anyone with two left feet" refer to?A．People who are disabled.B．People who are interested in dancing.C．People who are not good at dancing.D．People who invented the socks.9．What's special about fibers that the socks are made of?A．They feel much softer than normal clothes.B．They can monitor the movement of feet.C．They are expensive to produce.D．They act as a smart phone for users.10．Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the socks?A．They can improve the skill of running.B．They can help women walk better in high heels.C．They can teach people to dance well.D．They can be worn for days without washing.11．According to Dr.Vigano,.A．everyone can make good use of the smart socksB．users can run as fast as they like with the socksC．60 to 80 percent of runners would like to buy the smart socksD．no runners will get hurt,thanks to the socksDIt warmed my heart today to walk into the Thirsty Camel downtown in the Thanksgiving Day, for a quick lunch before a haircut and library trip. Ihan, a food shop owner, said that he was refusing to take money today because it was Buy Nothing Day. To increase awareness(意识) of the strange over spending nature of our society, Ilan suggested a trade for food today. He simply asked that you offer something of equal personal value for the meal you received.At first I was really uncomfortable, wondering if it would be fair to exchange a yet to be determined “I Owe You” (IOU) for food? What could I give him of equal value? After all, his food is the best in the town!We ended up writing our IOU's with promises of a book, some paintings and the offer ofwork in a variety of ways if he needs it.I think the idea isn't that the trade is "equal" so much as the importance of the kind of<u>transaction</u>. We put thought into our offer and we had an even greater understanding for the meals we ate.We don't buy a lot, especially at this upcoming time of year. We don't give gifts at all in fact. The holiday time is spent enjoying each other's company and doing things together with family and friends. This is what seems most sensible.Ilan is a good person. We are all lucky to have someone like this in our community. 12．Ilan did not take any money that day in order to_________.A．have a quick lunch before a haircut and library tripB．buy nothing that day to save some moneyC．make people aware of their over spendingD．trade for something of equal value in return13．For the meal, the author finally offered Ilan ________.A．some promises B．a bookC．some paintings D．work in different ways14．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “transaction”? A．transport B．tradeC．meal D．giving15．What is the author’s attitude to Buy Nothing Day?A．Disagreeable B．Meaningless.C．Supportive. D．Doubtful.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

辽宁省协作校2019-2020学年高二下学期期中考试英语试题（外研）学校_________ 班级__________ 姓名__________ 学号__________一、阅读选择1. At the office that day, Martha was left to keep her eyes open until after the lunch hour. Then Mr Max Cohen brought her a document to copy. She was so anxious she had to start afresh three times. And when he came to fetch it, all that had been achieved were the words “Memorandum of an Agreement of Sale” typed across the top of the sheet. She shrank under his impatient assurance that it did not matter in the least, and she must take her time. Her fingers were heavy and trembling, and her head was thick. To type two pages of his small neat writing into something clean and pleasant to look at seemed to her, just then, an impossibly difficult task. He went home without coming to her desk again, and she decided she would come early next morning and do it before anyone else arrived.Mrs Buss, on her way out, asked, “Have you got any certificates?” Martha said no. She had learned to type at home. Mrs Buss said nothing, but merely nodded absent-mindedly, for her eyes were on the elegant Mrs Jasper Cohen. Martha could barely see where she was going as she left the office. What she said to herself was, “I won’t spend the rest of my life typing this stupid jargon”.She then went into the building of the ZambesiNews. She was going to see if Mr Spur, an old journalist whom she had known as a child, could offer her any kind of position. She was in the building about half an hour, and when she came out, her face was hot with embarrassment. It had been so painful she could not bear to remember what had happened. What she must remember was that she had no qualifications at all.【小题1】Why did Martha find her first day at the office difficult?A．She was too nervous to think. B．Mr Cohen was not easy to please.C．The task given to her was very difficult. D．She was not used to working under pressure.【小题2】By the end of the day, which of the following was true of Martha?A ．She had decided to work overtime.B ．She hadn't finished her typing work.C ．She hadn't thought she would be blamed.D ．She knew Mr Cohen wasdisappointed in her.【小题3】What might be Mrs Buss's attitude towards Martha?A ．She seemed eager to help her.B ．She seemed uninterested in her.C ．She seemed to have taken a dislike to her.D ．She seemed concerned about her lack of qualifications.2. A lot of us lose life’s tough situations by mounting a frontal attack when a touch of humor might well enable us to chalk up a win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, Sam, who hit a traffic jam on the way to work. Although there was a good reason for Sam’s const ant lateness-serious illness at home, he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer. His boss was probably already pacing up and down with a dismissal speech prepared.He was. Sam entered the office at 9:35. The place was as quiet as a locker room. Sam’s boss approached him. Suddenly, Sam reached out his hand. “How do you do!” he said. “I’ m Sam Maynard. I’m applying for a job which I understand became available just 35minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?” The room explode d in laughter. The boss smiled and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard saved his job with the only tool that could win a laugh.Here is another example. An English hostess was giving a formal dinner for eight distinguished guests. She had asked her son to serve a large roast turkey. The boy only succeeded in dropping the bird onto the dining-room floor. Moving only her head, the hostess smiled at her son, “No harm, Daniel,” she said, “just pick it up and take it back to the kitchen”, she said clearly so he would think about what she was saying and bring in the other one. Some humorous words changed the dinner from a red-faced embarrassment to a ton of fun.Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected(忽视)means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for making up differences, saying sorry, saying no, criticizing, andgetting the other person to do what you want without his losing face. Also, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people are in any other places.Of course, humor is often more than a laughing matter. In its potent guises(有效的伪装), it has a Trojan-horse(特洛伊木马)nature: no one goes on guard against a laugh; we let it in because it looks like a little wooden toy. Once inside, however, it can turn a city to reform, to rebellion(反抗), to resistance.【小题1】What can the underlined words “chalk up” in Paragraph 1 be replaced by?A．pay for B．respond to C．think ofrecordingD．succeed ingetting【小题2】How does the author explain the power of humor?A．By using examples. B．By making comparisons.C．By introducing study results. D．By setting clown general rules. 【小题3】What does the author mean by mentioning humor’s Trojan-horse nature?A．It is but a toy. B．It catches us unaware.C．We usually resist its effect. D．We seldom really understand it.3. On April 12th, two African American men walked into a Starbucks in Philadelphia, and sat down to wait for theirfriend.Because they had not bought anything, an employee asked them to leave.When the two men refused, the employee called the police, and in minutes, they were arrested.It was not until later that day that they were let go.The video of this incident posted on Twitter went viral.People across the US were outraged.Unfortunately, these practices are not uncommon today.This incident is just one example of implicit bias(内隐偏见), something that is a part of human nature.Most of the time, implicit bias refers to people showing negative associations towards people of a different race.Starting from a young age, these feelings develop unconsciously and naturally, because our brain draws associations based on our background, cultural environment and personal experiences.Implicit bias affects our everyday speech and actions and these unconscious decisions can be harmful to our society.There have been many examples of blacks unfairly killed by white officers, such as in the cases of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling, which happened only two years ago.Implicit bias affects the justice system, our medical system where studies show minorities are less likely to be taken seriously, and job placements where white males are likely to be judged as more capable compared to women and other minorities.Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson and the police have publiclyapologized to the two men, and Starbucks will be holding an anti-bias training meeting on May 29th . All Starbucks stores will be closed on that day.However, critics and experts have said that such training is done "for show" rather than to promote change.To address this issue, many experts agree that what the world needs is a long-term program that targets the root cause.It also starts with promoting diversity in children from an early age when they have friends and playmates from different races and cultures.【小题1】What does the underlined word "outraged" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A ．Very angry.B ．Quite curious.C ．Very delighted.D ．Quite puzzled. 【小题2】What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A ．The nature of implicit bias.B ．The examples of implicit bias.C ．The basic concepts of implicit bias.D ．The negative effects of implicit bias.【小题3】What might experts think of the anti-bias training meeting?A ．It will be a shame for StarbucksB ．lt will be a meaningless practice.C ．It will raise the police's reputation.D ．lt will raise public awareness of anti-bias.【小题4】What might many experts agree with?A ．Starbucks should be closed.B ．Implicit bias should be ignored.C ．Children should be taught to avoid implicit bias.D ．Implicit bias should be dealt with by the policemen.二、七选五4. My husband and I had tried for many years to havechildren, but it just never happened. So we applied to be fosterparents(养父母). We decided we should start with an older child for a number of reasons. Since we both worked, child care might be aproblem. Our dog Corby might be a bit too energetic for a young child.【小题1】We sat back and prepared to wait for the few months they thought it might take to get a school-age child to pass ——which was why we were at a loss when the agency called us within weeks, just before Christmas, and asked if we would take Kaleb, a two-and-a-half-year-old boy, for a few months.This wasn't what we had discussed a few weeks before.【小题2】It was such short notice. We had made holiday plans and most of all, the boy was toddler(初学走路的孩子)! We went back and forth, and in the end, we just couldn't say no.The day was set for Kaleb to arrive. We went outside to greet our little guest. But before we could even reach the child, I heard a noise from behind me.【小题3】I gasped(因惊异吸气). Corby would frighten Kaleb——probably even knock him down.Corby reached Kaleb before either of us could grab her. She hounded up to the boy and immediately began licking his face with joy.【小题4】. His face light up with excitement, he cried, "Can this be my dog?Kaleb came to stay those few months.【小题5】Yes, we’adoptedKa leb. He became our son, and Corby…well, she couldn’t have been happier. She turned out to be Kaleb’s dog, after all.A．Privately, I was full of doubts.B．There were so many difficulties,C．Eight and a half years later, he is still with us.D．Turning, I saw Corby heading straight for the little boy.E．In our hurry, we must not have closed the door completely.F．And honestly,we were a little nervous about taking on a baby. G．In response, this little boy threw his arms around the dog’s neck and turned toward us.三、完形填空5. History rocks! But your poor history teacher was notable to_________all the fun little bits.

And now we help you_________that.Famous for his beard, Abraham Lincoln was an incredible_________. Though he wasn’t actually born in a very poor family, he did have a relatively_________childhood.
