黑龙江省大庆市铁人中学2020-2021学年高二下学期第一次月考学英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、完形填空Almost everyone around us uses a phone. Phones provide a simple and efficient way to conduct work or 1 with social arrangements from day to day. Several times in the course of a work day, you may be 2 by your workmates, students or friends by means of phone. If you want a/an 3 with your department head, you will 4 call him and arrange a time with him. If you are unable to 5 your appointment, or if you find you have to be 6 for it, you will phone and change the 7 . In this way, no one8 time waiting for someone who is not coming. If you want to buy something, you will “let your 9 do the walking”. That is, you call ahead to make sure the store has what you10 . If it is an expensive item, you might call several stores to 11 prices so that you can buy the cheapest one. If you want to 12 a train or plane, after finding out the prices, you can call to 13 the ticket; if you want to shop for clothes after work, you might call to ask how 14 the store is open before you travel all the way there.Phones are easily 15 . In streets, you can see public phones in which you feed coins to make a call. Phones have 16 answering services; if you are not at home or in the office, or don’t wish to be 17 , you switch on a machine, which will answer the call for you. A pre-recorded message will say to the 18 , “I’m sorry, I’m not available at the moment. Please leave your name and number and I will call you 19 as soon as possible.” It’s more efficient to 20 one’s name and number than to waste their time calling again and again.1．A．deal B．communicate C．share D．talk 2．A．suggested B．reminded C．connected D．ignored 3．A．prize B．promise C．deal D．appointment 4．A．never B．usually C．seldom D．frequently 5．A．keep B．make C．break D．take 6．A．intended B．prepared C．late D．ready 7．A．mind B．place C．plan D．idea 8．A．arranges B．takes C．kills D．wastes9．A．feet B．finger C．head D．legs 10．A．need B．hate C．have D．think 11．A．pay B．cut C．raise D．compare 12．A．make B．take C．miss D．get 13．A．choose B．offer C．book D．ask 14．A．late B．fast C．soon D．early 15．A．suitable B．usable C．enjoyable D．available 16．A．proper B．automatic C．artificial D．free 17．A．noticed B．upset C．disturbed D．worried 18．A．seller B．visitor C．speaker D．caller 19．A．on B．back C．up D．at 20．A．leave B．sign C．remember D．writeThe first day at school has left a deep 21 on me.

A young beautiful woman came in, but she was 23 , no smile on her face. “You are not permitted to 24 me in the course of class unless…”She was speaking when I heard a 25 “Lily, Lily” from outside the door. My grandmother was standing there with a pair of socks in her hand. I didn’t realize I was bare feet 26 then. I wanted to 27 them. But I dared not do that. I shook my hand, 28 “Don’t wait here any longer. Leave quickly.” As I did so, I still 29 my eyes on my teacher. I really didn’t want her to take 30 of me, but she did. She went out to get the socks. When she gave them to me, she looked at me for a while. My face suddenly turned 31 and my heart beat faster. I began to put the socks on. Unfortunately I was so nervous that my 32 hands couldn’t get them 33 my feet easily. Just then I heard my name called. I 34 from my sea t quickly. “Can you count the numbers from one to one hundred?” the teacher asked. I nodded. 35 her surprise, I did very36 . Finally she said, “Be seated, please.

These two incredible Seas hold some of my favorite travel memories, and I would revisit each one in a heartbeat!The Mediterranean SeaThe Mediterranean Sea can be accessed from various European countries as well as a few North African countries. And while many think of visiting Ibiza, Malta, or the Greek islands to experience the Mediterranean, my Mediterranean beach days came while visiting the seaside city of Marseille in the South of France! Marseille was a lovely city with easy access to the Sea, also with pretty sandy beaches. The gorgeous crystal clear blue water made it unlike any beach day in America! Not only were the beaches amazing, but the city of Marseille was adorableand filled with numerous cute shops and seaside restaurants. And the Mediterranean-style food was delicious!The Adriatic SeaThe Adriatic Sea is equally as stunning and surely worth a visit! The Croatian coast has numerous beach clubs, some private and some public, that tourists are able to visit and you can experience the beauty of the Adriatic Sea there! Zrce Novalja, a Croatian seaside town I visited, was impressively featured by the rather rocky beach in place of sand. The rocks were small and smooth, making swimming in the sea and wading in the water just as easy as sandy beaches! Plus, the locals in Croatia are also extremely friendly, making the experience even more memorable.41．The writer's trip to the two seas was full of ________.A．unbearable hardships B．various adventuresC．wonderful experiences D．funny events42．From which place did the writer get to the Mediterranean Sea?A．Ibiza. B．Malta.C．The Greek islands. D．Marseille.43．What makes Zrce Novalja so special?A．Its beach clubs. B．Its beautiful sea.C．Its rocky beach. D．Its friendly locals.My love for libraries blossomed when I joined the public library. From the age of 8 I was allowed to walk from my home to the downtown library, housed above the police station. Once the librarian gave me my first membership card, I could enjoy a range of books, which started with Little House in the Big Woods. I was addicted instantly, and this love of libraries and reading would change my life, allowing me to one day create a safe space for high-school kids, too.By the time I was in high school, I could read the authors that we were studying in class, including Charles Dickens, Mark Twain and Emily Bronte. During the summer months, I got caught up in Gone with the Wind.When I studied English literature at university, I thought it was time to build my own library. For the next 40 years, I continued to collect books. Until one day, I realized that all my books had become a part of the house, like wallpaper.Toward the end of my teaching career, I became a teacher-librarian at my old high school, where I had first learned English literature. This position enabled me to regain my love and appreciation for libraries. I had a generous budget for my classes, so I searched for novels that would interest my teenage audience and hopefully spark a love of books. Fantasy,science-fiction, graphic novels -I bought almost any type of books that my students wanted to read. I bought sofas and comfortable chairs, turning the library into a safe public space, for everyone.In doing so, I realized that the library isn’t just a place to do research. They are, in fact, places that offer an opportunity to connect with the past, present and future. All that is required is a tiny bit of curiosity. Libraries are places that should be full of life. They help us adjust to the world, and their doors must be kept open to everyone for free!44．What inspired the author to set up a library for students?A．Some well-known classics.B．His early experience of reading.C．The suggestion of a librarian.D．The book: Little House in the Big Woods.45．When did the author begin to build his own library?A．In primary school. B．In high school.C．During university years. D．After leaving college.46．What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 4?A．What his career was like.B．Where he stored his books.C．Why school kids loved reading.D．How he improved the school library.47．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．A private library B．Read with curiosityC．A librarian’s life D．More than just booksThe stories we share with one another are important. They show wisdom and provide inspiration. They are important to our development. But sometimes people choose not to tell.Consider the negative effects of not sharing a story in the news: People are wondering if public health officials are holding back too much information about the recent outbreak ofEbola.There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. Bobette Buster said it like this, “The fact is, history has shown us that stories not told can become like a dangerous genie (妖怪) left in a bottle. When they are finally uncorked, their power to destroy is set free.”There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages; they require courage and strength to share; and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else.Most of us have two selves: the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside. And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others.Honesty and openness is important: it proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human. We are not perfect or better. It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development. Hard work may not allow us to overcome our disadvantages completely. But with hard work, we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes.Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disadvantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not. There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.48．What’s the function of the example in Paragraph 2?A．It reflects that people are concerning about the spread of Ebola.B．It shows the bad effect caused by sharing a story.C．It proves not sharing a story can cause trouble.D．It concludes that one should share a story at a proper time.49．Which is close in meaning to the underlined word “uncorked” in Paragraph 3?A．freed B．brokenC．unfolded D．untouched50．One of the reasons why people are unwilling to share experiences is that _______. A．story-sharing highlights the importance of hard workB．people are used to exposing their weaknessesC．people sometimes have no courage to share their storiesD．some stories make themselves feel sad51．The writer aims to convince us to _______.A．be open to people close to you by sharing some secretsB．share stories appropriately for the good of others and ourselvesC．remove the dangers that can be caused by untold storiesD．realize the importance of being honest when making friendsPeople have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer even though they have lifespans (寿命) that are similar to humans, jiving for around 50 to 70 years.Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large number of genes that stop tumors (肿瘤) developing. To be precise, they found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy.According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animal’s sensitivity to DNA damage, which lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors.“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evoluti on of large body sizes in many animals,” the study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the same chance of becoming cancerous (癌变的), large creatures with a long lifespan like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.This phenomenon was found by Oxford University scientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Peto’s paradox (悖论)”. Biologists believe it results from larger animals using protection that many smaller animals do not. In the elephant’s case, the making of TP53 is nature’s way of keeping this species alive.The study also found that when the same genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancers spreading or even developing in the first place.“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,” s aid Joshua Schiffman, a biologist at the School of Medicine, University of Utah, US. “It’s up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.”52．Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer?A．They have a rather large body size.B．Their genes suffer no DNA damage.C．Certain genes in their body kill existing tumors.D．They carry many genes to prevent tumors developing.53．According to the passage, what has been a risk in the evolution of large animals? A．Deadly tumors. B．The huge body mass.C．Cells killing themselves. D．Sensitivity to DNA damage. 54．What does the underlined part “This phenomenon” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to? A．Larger animals have protection from TP53.B．The risk of cancer is not related to body size.C．Larger animals suffer the same risk of cancer as smaller ones.D．The larger animals are, the bigger risk of cancer they will have.55．What can be concluded from the passage?A．Depending on nature is surely enough to fight against cancer.B．The TP53 genes have proved useful in stopping cancer in people.C．Humans are expected to prevent cancer with the making of TP53.D．The extra copies of elephants, genes are used to cure cancer patients.三、七选五House fires cause many deaths each year.56．. So, it's important to teach them that fire is a tool, not a toy. Kids must understand that they'd better not play with fire. You should keep matches and lighters out of their reach.A smoke alarm greatly reduces your chances of being hurt in a fire, especially when you are in your dream. 57．. Also, you ought to have two plans for getting out of your house if there is a fire and practice these plans in the dark with your family.A smoke alarm warns you of the danger. When you hear it, take action immediately. When you come to a closed door, check it with the back of your hand. If it feels hot, there may be smoke or fire behind the door, so take care. 58．, call the fire department from a neighbor's house. If a family member or a pet is caught inside, you shouldn't go back in. Firemen know how to perform rescues safely.59． . Change the batteries at least once a year. You should use the test button each month to see if the alarm and batteries are still working. A smoke alarm lasts about ten years. You ought to change it even if it seems to be working. Every year the fire and rescue service is called to over 600,000 fires, which result in over 800 deaths and over 17,000 injuries. 60． .A．Once you are out of your houseB．Make sure of working hours of fire fightersC．A large number of these fires are set by kidsD．Although your friends know how to put out fireE.So you should have a smoke alarm outside your bedroomF.But remember, the alarm can work only if it has enough powerG.Actually most of them can be avoided with working smoke alarms四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容或括号内单词的正确形式（不超过三个单词）。

Michael was supposed to be here with me, I thought.Two months ago, my husband, Michael, died in a car accident. I tried desperately to keep a brave face for our two young boys but his death left much pain in my heart. Michael had promised to buy our younger child a new bicycle for his eighth birthday. Now, here I was , doing it alone. It was just another reminder of all the other things I’d experience by myself. Birthdays, holidays, even our 18th wedding anniversary which was just in three weeks time. How would I get through those days without Michael?Suddenly, a bright red bike caught my eye. It was perfect for my son. On my way to the register（登记处）I found another red bike—an adult one. My bicycle was unsafe for keeping up with two active boys, so I treated myself.“Don’t forget to buy chains and locks.”The salesman said. I found easily a set of chain and lock matching the bike I had just bought for my little son, but I looked all around the store and couldn’t find a set for mine.“Lord, Michael was so good at this thing. Help me.”I prayed. Just then, on the bottom shelf, I found a set of red lock and chain, a perfect match.On the day of our wedding anniversary I’d never felt more lonely. I could’ve stayed in bed all day. But Michael wouldn’t have wanted that, Ithought. I couldn’t let children feel upset.“Kids, let’s go for a bike ride!”I brought out our three bicycles from the garage. I casually（无意地）picked up a pen with which I wrote down the combination:38,18,38, which I didn’t know why. But those numbers I knew well. Michael and I would both have been 38 years old on our 18th anniversary this year.41. Facing her two children the author _________.A. seldom fought back her tearsB. said that she was sad against her willC. couldn’t control her pain in her heartD. pretended that she was very strong42.

They use robotic systems to milk their cows. These systems are designed to reduce labor and increase milk production.Cows are trained to follow a series of paths that lead to the milking stations. Only one cow at a time can enter the station. Once inside, the cow is rewarded with food. As the cow eats , a robotic arm cleans and connects the animal to the milking machine. A few minutes later, the milking is completed. The gate is lifted. The cow leaves and the next cow enters. The robotic systems are designed to operate twenty-four hours a day. Cows are milked on average about three times a day. Some are milked four to six times a day. The cows wear collars(颈圈) around their necks that identify them to the system . A computer keeps records on their eating and milking. A cow is released from the station if the computer decides it should not be milked. The system also measures the temperature and color of the freshly produced milk. Milk is thrown away if it does not pass the tests. Cows need two to four weeks to learn to use the robotic milking systems. Once trained, the cows no longer require human assistance, unless something goes wrong.Professor Plaut heads the Department of Animal Science at Michigan State University. She believes the systems will attract especially the next generation of farmers who are more interested in technology and less interested in working all the time on the farm. Still, she says the price of robotic milking systems will continue to limit their use. Doug Suhr has more than one hundred milking cows on his farm. Last year it became the fourth farm in southeast Minnesota to get a robotic milking system. A recent story in a local agricultural newspaper said the first robot cost $175,000 and the second cost $150,000. Doug says the increase in milk production reaches a high of more than 6 kg percow per day.49. What’s the second paragraph mainly about?A. How robotic milking systems work.B. The importance of robotic milking systems.C. How robotic milking systems were developed.D. The advantages of robotic milking systems.50. Under robotic milking systems, decide(s) whether a cow is suitable to be milked.A. the robotic armsB. the dairy farmersC. the cows themselvesD. a computer51. When is human assistance needed during the milking?A. When the cows enter the milking station every morning.B. When a robotic arm connects a cow to the milking machine.C. When the cows are trained to use the robotic milking system in the first two to four weeks.D. When the temperature and color of the freshly produced milk are measured.52. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. the price of robotic milking systems will greatly decreaseB. robotic milking systems are still too expensive to be popularC. most farmers are too old to use robotic milking systems.D. robotic milking systems don’t need to work at nihgt.DPeople fell in love with Elizabeth Taylor in 1944, when she starred in National Velvet-the story of Velvet Brown, a young girl who wins firstplace in a famous horse race. At first, the producers of the movie told Taylor that she was too small to play the part of Velvet. However, they waited for her for a few months as she exercised and trained-and added three inches to her height in four months! Her acting in National Velvet is still considered the best by a child actress.Elizabeth Taylor was born in London in 1932. Her parents, both Americans, had moved there for business reasons. When World War II started, the Taylor moved to Beverly Hills, California, and there Elizabeth started acting in movies. After her success as a child star, Taylor had no trouble moving into adult（成人）roles and won twice for Best Actress: Butter field 8(1960) and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?(1996) Taylor’s fame（名声）and popularity gave her a lot of power with the movie industry, so she was able to demand very high pay for her movies. In 1963, she received $ 1 million for her part in Cleopatra-the highest pay received by any star up to that time.Elizabeth Taylor is a legend（传奇人物）of our time. Like Velvet Brown in National V elvet, she has been lucky; she has beauty, fame and wealth. But she is also a bard worked. Taylor seldom acts in movies any more. Instead, she puts her time and efforts into her businesses, and into helping others-several years ago, she founded an organization that has raised more than $40 million for research and education.53. The producers didn’t let Taylor play the part of Velvet at first because they thought she __________. .A. was small in sizeB. was too youngC. did not play well enoughD. did not show muchinterest54. What Elizabeth Taylor and Velvet Brown had in common was that they were both .A. popular all their livesB. famous actressesC. successful when very youngD. rich and kind-hearted55. Taylor became Best Actress at the age of __________.A. 12B. 28C. 31D. 3456. In her later life, Elizabeth Taylor devoted herself to ______. .A. doing business and helping othersB. turning herself into a legendC. collecting money for the poorD. going about research and education workEYou may or may not have heard that Denmark was voted the happiest place to live in the world. When people think of the happiest place, most think of Disneyland. But could Denmark truly be the happiest place to live? I would have to say, it does. Try to imagine what you would consider the happiest place for you to live. Most would say their ideal paradise has sunny weather, nice beaches and is tropical. However, Denmark is far from these. Denmark is a very cold country, where it rains a lot. So how can this cold place make you so happy?I was born and raised in Denmark and lived there for 11 years. The Danes are such nice people (usually) and really enjoy life to the fullest. The country itself is beautiful with so many amazing historical buildingsand beautiful farmlands everywhere.The capital Copenhagen is a fun and exciting place to live. You’ll never find a dull moment there. Now Denmark does, however, have very high taxes. They pay between 50 percent and 70 percent of their incomes, but in return they get free health care and free education. Because of the high taxes, people don’t find jobs to be bad jobs. People really take pride in their jobs, whatever they may be.Denmark truly is, in my opinion, the happiest place to live in the world. I’ve lived in several different countries and none of them is better than Denmark. Sure enough, you may enjoy warmer weather, but the atmosphere and scenery of Denmark can’t be beaten.57. Which of the following is NOT the reason why Denmark is the happiest place to live?A. The sunny weather.B. The historical buildings.C. The farmlandsD. Nice people there.58.The Danes pay between 50 percent and 70 percent of their incomes to .A. maintain their governmentB. meet their high living standardsC. help those in needD. enjoy free health care and free education59. We can infer from the third paragraph that .A. the Danes are not willing to pay the high taxesB. the Danes have to work hard to live wellC. the Danes have no prejudice against jobsD. it’s hard to find a good job in Denmark60. The main purpose of the text is to .A. advise us to go to Denmark for a holidayB. tell us his own experiences in DenmarkC. tell us why Denmark is the happiest place to live in the worldD. tell us the advantages and disadvantages of living in Denmark第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Why aren't you going to college?”I didn't know anything about colleges or scholarships. No one had ever considered that a fatherless boy from the poorest neighborhood had a future.That day，instead of rushing off for lunch，he stayed and explained possible education options to me.At the end of our talk，he sent me to see a secretary who had a child at a state college.This was in 1962 at EmersonHigh School in Union City，New Jersey.Well，55 years have passed，and what have I done with the knowledge he gave me? I gained a PhD from Fordham University when I was only 29. I taught English and social studies and then moved up the chain of command from teacher to principal(校长).I've sat on the board for Magnet Schools of America and represented that organization at the United Nations.I've won a number of great educational awards.But where would I be if a truly caring teacher had not taken the time out of his lunch period to speak to me？It was without question only his confidence in me that helped me forward.I have repaid his kindness hundreds of times by encouraging misguided youngsters to aim higher.If I have saved any children，it is because of him.If I have been a successful educator，it is because I had a great role model in Mr.Bachmann.24．The writer ________ before Mr.Bachmann talked to him.A．was an active boy.

Doctors and nurses wanted to surprise him with their thanks for helping out.They tricked him down to the hospital under the pretense of needing to pick up a sick patient, but in reality, doctors and nurses lined the hall waiting to applaud (鼓掌) him.“This is a surprise that has been given to a taxi driver who takes patients to the hospitals without charge,” wrote the taxi company that first shared the video.The man seemed completely taken aback by the gesture, stopping in the middle of the doors as the whole room cheered for him.He was also given an envelope full of money and the satisfying results of his own COVID-19 test.The video has since been shared tens of thousands of times across the world, because kind gestures break the language barrier (障碍).“When the crisis is finished, there will have been two types of people... the good and the bad,” one user wrote. “With workmates like him, I am proud to be a taxi driver, son of a taxi driver, and father of a taxi driver.”With the word in hard times, just knowing good people are there doing good deeds is something we can all appreciate.28.

Taxi drivers play an important part in this crisis.DWhen we buy something new, we get rid of what’s old. That cycle of consumption has made electronics waste the world’s fastest-growing solid-waste stream, which is expected to grow as the world upgrades to 5G.While promising faster speeds and other benefits, 5G will result in a dramatic increase in e-waste. That’s good business for ERI, which charges customers to collect their electronics and to securely wipe their data. But less than a quarter of U. S. electronic waste is recycled, the rest ending up as rubbish, posing environmental risks.Part of the problem concerns regulation (法规). In states without laws banning electronics from the regular trash, electronics often end up in garbage and recycling bins. Even when e-waste rules exist, it’s left to consumers to handle their old devices properly. But recycling them can be a pain. Rather than drop a used phone in a bin, lots of people have to take their electronics to a store, which may pay them for it or charge them to get rid of it. Many consumers simply throw their devices into the trash or throw them in a drawer.One solution is to make electronics last as long as they once did. Yet, technology companies are speeding the pace of being deserted. “It’s a strategy by producers to force us into shorter upgrade cycles,” said Kyle Wiens, the founder of iFixit, which publishes do-it-yourself repair guides.Some environmental groups say big companies like Apple and Samsung should pick up the cost of recycling the devices they sell. Lawmakers have passed Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws, which require producers to establish and fund systems to recycle or collect abandoned products.Some companies are increasing their recycling efforts on their own. For instance, Apple in 2018 introduced Daisy, a smartphone-recycling robot that can take apart 200 iPhones every hour. But that’s a drop in the bucket compared with the 50 million tons of e-waste generated globally last year.32. What’s the problem 5G technology will cause?A. Failure in some traditional business.B. Faster and shorter cycle of electronics.C. Many electronics ending up as waste.D. Added cost to recycling old electronics.33. How does Kyle Wiens view the act of technology companies?A. They design to shorten the life cycle of products.B. They struggle to provide goods with good quality.C. They have a short life cycle because of the market.D. They are trying to collect their abandoned products.34. What’s the duty that Daisy performs daily?A. Funding to collect abandoned iPhones.B. Guiding people on do-it-yourself repair.C. Checking environmental risks of phones.D.Taking apart smartphones automatically.35. What is the best title for the text?A. Choice for Recycled SmartphonesB. Dealing with the Mountain of E-wasteC. Bad Effect of 5G on the EnvironmentD. Apple on Its Duty for Nature Protection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。
