‎2018-2019学年第一学期高二 第一次月考英语试卷 时间：90分钟 总分：120分 第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）‎ 第一节（共10小题；每小题3分，满分30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。‎ A Generally speaking, waiting rooms are always filled with a lot of impatient people. However, a project carried out by The Observer suggests that people regard these spaces as a place of refuge (避难), a window in their tightly scheduled lives.‎ Ella Doroudy, Margate Station We were at the beach for the day, and now are on our way home. We don’t have to wait very long, because we checked the timetable so we got here in time for the train. I just chat with my mates, really, and listen to music until the train comes. Waiting with other people is easier because you can kill time when you’re talking about stuff.‎ Caroline Lacey, Streatham Dental Center I don’t really get nervous about seeing the dentist, but since these two fillings (补牙的材料) came out I’ve been in sharp pain. It’s very bright and airy here, so it’s quite calming. Usually I kill time by reading magazines. I’ve been coming to the dentist as and when I need to, but now it’s got to be regular.‎ Katie Hawkins, Model Casting I was a bit late today, which I’m quite pleased about because some of these girls have been waiting ages. You can’t help but look at everyone else a bit — you look at the other girls and think: “I wonder if they’ll like her better than they like me.” While I’m waiting, I’m thinking: “Oh come on. I do have a life!”‎ Paul Thomas, Royal London Hospital I feel pretty indifferent (满不在乎的)  while I’m waiting here, to be honest. It’s something I’ve got very used to since my motorbike accident seven years ago. I’ve had about 32 operations so far. It’s no good rushing in thinking you’re going to escape in five minutes, so I just sit back and people-watch, really.‎ ‎1. What is Ella doing at Margate Station?‎ A. Checking the timetable.‎ B. Catching the train to the beach.‎ C. Meeting and picking her mates up.‎ D. Waiting for the train to return home.‎ ‎2. How does Caroline feel after she enters the waiting room?‎ A. Bored.‎ B. Excited.‎ C. Relaxed.‎ D. Nervous.‎ ‎3. What kind of feeling does Katie probably show when she is thinking “I do have a life!”?‎ A. Impatience.‎ B. Satisfaction.‎ C. Amazement.‎ D. Confidence.‎ ‎ B A ten-year-old from Howell, Michigan is being praised as a hero thanks to his persistence (坚持) that led to saving the life of an elderly neighbor. The event happened late in an evening when Danny DiPietro was being driven home from hockey practice by his mom.‎ That’s when the young boy noticed an open garage (车库) and a figure that he believed was a dog outside an apartment building near his house. Given the freezing cold weather, the young boy got a feeling that something was not right. But instead of dismissing it like most kids his age would have, he insisted that his mother, Dawn, find out what was going on. Dawn tried to make Danny believe that no one would leave a dog out in such cold weather, but he refused to take no for an answer.‎ Dawn finally gave in and decided to drive to the area with the family dog and see if there was any truth to Danny’s hunch (直觉). Sure enough, as she got closer to the apartment building she noticed a garage that was wide open and someone waving madly for help. Upon getting there, she realized that it was not a dog the young boy had seen, but Kathleen St. Onge. The 80-year-old had fallen down on some ice in her garage and had been lying there for two hours, unable to get up.‎ Dawn rushed home to get her husband to help and called 911. The two then returned with some blankets to cover Ms. St. Onge, while they waited for the ambulance to arrive. Though still in hospital, the elderly woman is recovering well and forever grateful to Danny, for following up on his hunch!‎ ‎4. When seeing a figure in an open garage, Danny _____.‎ A. recognized it was an old man B. thought it was a homeless dog C. realized something was wrong D. believed it was nothing important ‎5. When Dawn got closer to the garage, she _____.‎ A. noticed the dog had gone away B. knew Danny’s hunch was wrong C. found an old lady waving for help D. felt something must have been stolen ‎6. Which of the following can best describe Danny?‎ A. Brave and patient.‎ B. Friendly and honest.‎ C. Considerate and optimistic.‎ D. Persistent and warm-hearted.‎ ‎7. What could be the best title for the text?‎ A. Always follow your hunch B. Be ready to help save the elderly C. Unknown hero brings love and hope D. 10-year-old saves elderly neighbor’s life C Worldwide, humans use about 1 trillion plastic bags each year. But experts say they’re causing major trouble for the environment. That’s why cities like Austin, Texas, and San Francisco, California, have banned plastic bags. New York City plans to charge a five-cent fee for every bag.‎ In fact, it takes 10 to 20 years for a plastic bag to break down. Even then, tiny pieces of the bag never really go away. Many plastic bags get washed out to sea. Thousands of sea animals, like dolphins and whales, die each year because of plastic bags. Some animals think the bags are food and eat them. But an animal’s body can’t process (处理) a bag like it processes food. The bag can cause a very slow, painful death for an animal. Sea animals aren’t the only ones eating plastic. The chemicals in plastic bags can get into the ground at a landfill (垃圾填埋地). The chemicals can also get into the bodies of animals we eat. That means the chemicals can get into our water and food.‎ Plastic bags were first introduced in 1977. People thought the bags were much better than paper bags. Plastic bags were stronger and cheaper to make. They were light and easy to use and store. Plastic bags can also be healthier to use. Germs from raw meat and vegetables can live a lot longer on cloth or paper bags than they do on plastic bags.‎ A lot of people say that getting rid of plastic bags isn’t necessary. Instead, they want to reduce the number of bags we use. New York City’s bag fee is one way to do that. Shoppers might think twice before using a plastic bag if they have to pay for it. Most Americans already reuse plastic bags. Some people take plastic bags back to the store the next time they shop. Others pack their lunches in them. And many people use them to pick up after their dogs. Some stores are trying bags made from more Earth-friendly materials, like corn. But it is not clear yet if these will help the environment.‎ ‎8. What’s the second paragraph mainly about?‎ A. The value of plastic bags.‎ B. The future of plastic bags.‎ C. The danger of plastic bags.‎ D. The processing methods of plastic bags.‎ ‎9. What can we learn about plastic bags made from corn?‎ A. They prove to be deadly to sea animals.‎ B. They can break down entirely like food.‎ C. They are healthier to use than paper bags.‎ D. They do no harm to the environment.‎ ‎10. What’s the attitude of New York City towards plastic bags?‎ A. Their usage should be reduced.‎ B. They should be offered for free.‎ C. They should be banned entirely.‎ D. Their materials should be from plants.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Time is on your side How frequently do you say “I don’t have time”? Quite often, I guess. Every time we say those words, they make us feel weak and out of control. You are in control of your hours and your life.  11 ‎ I know it’s not as easy as simply turning off the TV. But here are two steps that will help you take back control and get time on your side.‎ ‎★ 12 ‎ Be honest: do you spend an hour or two visiting Weixin and QQ every day? Are you spending time with people that you don’t really like just to please them? Are there meetings you attend that you can politely refuse?‎ It’s time to get real about the hours that add up to a lot of dissatisfying nothing. Think how you can cancel daily activities that are not useful.  13‎ ‎★Change your language.‎ Words matter. They have power. Saying “I don’t have time” is an excuse for not wanting to do something. Here are some good, empowering alternatives (选择):‎ ‎“I choose not to start that project until next year.”‎ ‎“ 14 ”‎ ‎“I’d love to go out this weekend but have important work I need to do first.”‎ Get better at saying no.  15  Use little pockets of time (friend running late, car stuck in traffic, meeting ending 10 minutes early) to do some productive thinking. All these things can add up over time more than you believe!‎ A. Identify your blocks.‎ B. But you are likely wasting a lot of it!‎ C. I really don’t have enough time to do it.‎ D. Replace them with things that satisfy you.‎ E. Take no notice of all those unimportant messages on your phone.‎ F. I’d love to read that book — I’ll get to it after my homework is complete!‎ G. When you don’t have a plan for your life, someone else will plan it for you.‎ 第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ On Monday, April 20, we experienced heavy rain and fierce winds.
