2024高二英语第一次月考英语试卷 命题 审题 英 语 全卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A The holidays are for spending time with friends and family, including your dog. If you are traveling this year, think of going to a place you and your dog can enjoy equally. Crowds When you are planning on celebrating the holidays with a large crowd of family and friends, be aware of how this affects your dog. Many dogs are not comfortable around large crowds, especially when they are not used to it. Cats and dogs both get nervous when they are surrounded by lots of unfamiliar people. In order to keep your dog comfortable during this time of year, make sure your pet has a quiet place to escape to when the crowds become noisy. Food Many of the delicious foods we eat during the holiday season are simply not good for our dogs. If you want to make sure your pet gets to have as many tasty treats as we do during the holiday season, prepare some of your dog’s favorite doggy treats in advance. Apples and carrots make great dog snacks. Learn what foods are harmful to dogs. Decorations Holiday decorations can also be a problem for dogs. Curious by nature, your pet may be interested in the holiday decorations at their eye level. Your pet may eat these decorations, which can be a major danger. When you decorate your tree, make sure the decorations are out of reach of the dog, especially tinsel (金属线), which can cause health problems for animals if they eat it. The best holiday you can give your pet is one you spend with it. If you are planning on traveling, take your dog with you. 21. What should you do for your pet in the holiday? A. Buy just apples and carrots as its snacks. B. Keep dangerous decorations beyond its reach. C. Invite as few guests as possible to your home. D. Try to make it surrounded by people all the time. 22. Which of the following can give your dog the best holiday? A. Keeping it in a quiet room. B. Staying with it personally. C. Providing enough healthy food. D. Decorating its home beautifully. 23. Who is the text probably written for? A. Pet owners. B. Parents. C. Inexperienced tourists. D. Animals. B I recently watched the Arnold Schwarzenegger documentary on Netflix, and I have to tell you how impressed I was with his life story. I remember back in high school when Clara and I were the only two girls in the gym working out and lifting weights. Yes, this was back in the dinosaur days when girls didn’t go to the gym. There were all these posters about Arnold. He was the bodybuilder of the day. He won the Mr. Universe title aged 20, and then the Mr. Olympia title seven times. He was a hero to so many of us gym rats. But he is so much more than that. He is an Austrian and American actor, a businessman, a filmmaker, a politician (政治家), and a retired professional bodybuilder. Most people know him for his action movies, like The Terminator. In case you didn’t know, he also served as the 38th governor (州长) of California from 2003 to 2011, and was among Time magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world in 2004 and 2007. But what touched me was his determination to get where he is today. He had a dream, and he went after it. He came from a small town on the other side of the world. They said he couldn’t make it in body building, but he went on to be one of the world’s most famous bodybuilders. They said he would never be an actor because of his accent (口音), but in spite of that, he became box office gold. They said it was impossible for him to become a governor, but he showed them, winning not one but two terms in office and making some world changes while in there. I love stories like these. It gives us hope that we can do anything as long as we set our minds to it. The lesson here is to never give up, to hold onto your dream no matter how crazy others may think it is. 24. What does the author show us about Arnold in paragraph 2? A. He worked as a fitness coach. B. He was a hero to young girls. C. He stood out as a bodybuilder. D. He changed some people’s lives. 25. What role made Arnold known by most people? A. An actor. B. A bodybuilder. C. A filmmaker. D. A politician. 26. What impressed the author most about Arnold? A. He was the most influential man in the world. B. He was unwilling to listen to others all the time. C. He was the youngest to win the Mr. Olympia title. D. He was always determined to do what he wanted to. 27. What message does the author want to express in the text? A. Every dog has its days. B. Gold will shine everywhere. C. You can’t judge a book by its cover. D. Where there is a will, there is a way. C Happiness isn’t earned; it’s noticed. You can put a lot of energy into getting to a position where happiness is easier to notice. But if you are not excited about an achievement, you know that happiness isn’t automatic (自动的). Instead, you need to practice noticing happiness around you. It’s actually a rather common emotion; we just usually ignore most of the sources for it because they are not important. Every rock around you has a story, a structure, and a texture (纹理). Pick up a rock and look at it until you find something you like. Then drop it, catch another, and do it again. With just a little practice, you’ll build an entire little system in your own head for admiring rocks, and pretty soon you can get a little bit of happiness just looking at a rock. That includes everything. Flowers, trees, wind, clouds, cars, rain, rural diners, children’s sports matches, library bathrooms, parking lots, everything. The world has an endless supply of detail, and there’s no good reason not to learn to enjoy that. When you do this, you get this kind of superpower where you can find small joy in any situation. The only reason why most of us don’t learn to practice this skill is that we were told it’s a waste of time by people who never figured it out. With a lot of practice, it can even help you out during times of intense sadness, fear or pain. When you experience a negative (消极的) emotion, it’s a very powerful skill to be able to say “Wow, how interesting that a person can hurt like this! What a world!” It doesn’t make the bad feelings go away, it doesn’t fix whatever problem that caused them, but even in the depths of hopelessness you can shine a little light. 28. What do we learn about happiness from paragraph 1? A. It is difficult to get. B. It lies in everyone’s life. C. It requires discovering. D. It is a mixed emotion. 29. What’s the author’s purpose in mentioning the rock? A. To tell the stories behind it. B. To connect it with many other things. C. To prove the value of every rock. D. To show a way to notice happiness. 30. Why do many people fail to notice happiness? A. They run after real joy in life. B. They want to cover everything. C. They are misled by negative people. D. They pay too much attention to detail. 31. How can admiring happiness benefit us? A. It drives our bad feelings away. B. It brightens us in a positive light. C. It helps solve difficult problems in life. D. It keeps our mind open to everything. D Summer brings very high temperatures to many parts of the United States. That can be both good news and bad news for gardens and gardeners. Jessica Damiano writes about gardening for the Associated Press. She keeps a garden in New York, where summer temperatures can reach 32℃. Recently, Damiano repeated a difficult truth for gardeners: weather has a lot to do with success, but it is out of our control. Some plants suffer in the heat, including impatiens. These small flowers are not doing well. But what Damiano dislikes are the creatures that become more active when temperatures rise. Mosquitos (蚊子) are most active at sun rise and sunset, but they can bite at any time. Although heat theoretically slows their activity, hot conditions can help mosquitoes spread. In addition to insects, heat and wetness are good conditions for slugs (鼻涕虫). These creatures have soft smooth bodies, and they eat plants. Heat is not all bad for a garden. Some plants love heat. Damiano grows a kind of tomato called Big Boy. “The plant,” she says, “has grown quickly in the summer heat.” Heat can also keep harmful insects away. Cabbage, onion and corn maggots (蛆) prefer cooler weather and struggle in the heat. So do cutworms, which can be especially destructive to gardens. There are measures that plant lovers can take to alleviate the effects of hot summer weather. One measure is to spread a thick layer of covering over plant roots. This can help keep plant roots cool and will store water in the soil. When watering plants, use a lot of water and let it flow deep into the ground. You can water your garden less often if you provide a deep watering regularly. Light watering causes roots to spread near the surface of the soil. 32. What can we know about Jessica Damiano? A. She is a professional gardener. B. She loses control of her garden. C. She is a writer and loves gardening. D. She finds the truth of the extreme heat. 33. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Benefits of heat for gardening. B. Flowers and insects in the heat. C. Plants suffering in the heat. D. Downsides of heat to plants and gardeners. 34. What does the underlined word “alleviate” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Reduce. B. Suffer. C. Strengthen. D. Understand. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. How to Care for Your Garden in Summer B. Heat Can Be Good or Bad for Your Garden C. Heat May Be a Big Disaster to Your Garden D. How to Make Good Use of the Hot Weather 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The use of spanking (打屁股) to punish children has greatly reduced. But yelling (大喊大叫)? 36 Yelling may be the most widespread parental stupidity around today. How many times in your parenting life have you said to yourself, after yelling at your kids, “Well, that was a good decision⋯”? Yelling doesn’t make you look authoritative (权威的). 37 It makes you look weak. And you’re yelling, let’s be honest, because you are weak. Yelling, even more than spanking, is the response of a person who doesn’t know what else to do. But most parents find it hard to imagine how to get through the day without yelling. The new research on yelling presents parents with two problems: What do I do instead? 38 Yelling to stop your kids from running into traffic is not what we’ re talking about here. 39 Yelling for correction is ineffective as a tool. We yell at our kids over the same stuff every day, and we yell at them some more because the original yelling doesn’t work. “Only knowing that yelling is bad, in itself, won’t help.” said Alan Kazdin, a professor at Yale. 40 “If the goal of the parent is catharsis (宣泄), I want to get this out of my system and show you how mad I am. Well, yelling is probably perfect.” Dr. Kazdin said. “If the goal here is to change something in the child or develop a positive habit in the child, yelling is not the way to do that. There are other strategies, and they don’t include yelling.” A. And how do I stop? B. But when should I stop doing that? C. We’ re talking about yelling as a form of correction. D. In fact, it makes you look out of control to your kids. E. Yelling is not a strategy; it’s a form of emotional expression. F. Yelling, obviously, does great harm to children than you imagine. G. Almost everybody still yells at their kids sometimes, even those who know it doesn’t work. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Mathematic s has always been like a flower to me.

Struggling in an English- speaking classroom, Shah was ignored by his kindergarten teacher, who punished him for not understanding his directions in English. As his family moved several times, including a summer back in Afghanistan, Shah forgot the small amount of English he had learned. On his first day of second grade, he only remembered 10 letters in the alphabet (字母表). That was until he met his teacher, Ms. Linda. “I could see he was sharp, but it was hard for him.” Linda stated. “Not only did he have to deal with forgetting all the English, but he had to deal with the kids who couldn’t understand him.” Almost every day after school, Linda would sit with Shah to give him extra lessons to ensure he would keep up with his class. By the end of the year, Shah had learned to read and write, even going on to win awards a year later. Sadly, Shah lost touch with the teacher after his family moved several more times. Throughout high school and college, Shah tried to find Ms. Linda. He called his old school, checked social media, and visited his old school’s office—all ending in dead ends. During this post-secondary time of his life, Shah was starting to go in for a successful career in writing. Shah received many writing awards and prizes, and his works appeared in places like The New Yorker. Shortly after his first book, 99 Nights in Logar, came out in 2019, Shah was surprised by a message on Facebook. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It was from Ms. Linda. __________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ They finally met at Shah’s book signing event. _______________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ 英语参考答案 第一部分 听力 1—5 ACBCB 6—10 CACAA 11—15 BCABC 16—20 ABCBA 第二部分 阅读 第一节 A 【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。本文作者就如何让宠物和主人一起度过一个愉快的假期给出了几点建议。 21.

This was the first time that I had lived and studied abroad. When I first arrived, I was too nervous to communicate with other campers. But they were very kind and we all soon became good friends. Together we visited places of interest in Australia and took part in many interesting activities at the camp. It was really an enjoyable and meaningful experience, which not only opened my mind but gave me a valuable chance to meet new friends. 第二节 【参考范文】 It was from Ms. Linda. Afterwards, Ms. Linda reached out to Shah through Facebook. This was the moment Shah had been waiting for years. Shah cried when he heard her voice on the phone. He explained how grateful he was and how he had been searching for her all these years. It happened that soon, Shah would hold a book signing event in the city near his old school, and he planned to visit Linda then. They finally met at Shah’s book signing event. Shah was surprised to find Ms. Linda sitting in the front row of his book signing. They were able to chat and laugh as Shah signed her book. “I tried to write on the page what I couldn’t express with my voice,” he recalled. The grateful author also gave a beautiful ending: “My father always used to say that every child is a rocket filled with fuel and all they need is a single spark to lift off into the sky. Ms. Linda was my spark.” 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
