Theatrical tradition Theaters in Britain date back at least to the 16th century, and the most famous playwright is of course William Shakespeare. A company was founded in his name, with a stage at his birthplace, Stratford-upon-Avon. It has trained generations of actors. In the 20th century, classical and more modern plays were also performed at many regional theaters, where actors and writers gained experience. Film stars The world of film-making has involved British creative talent from the beginning. Charlie Chaplin born in poverty in London’s East End, began as a child entertainer in music halls. He then became a pioneer of silent movies in Hollywood and created many black-and-white classics during the First World War. British actors, who were often classically trained in theater, Laurence Olivier and Alec Guinness became house-hold names after the Second World War. Supporting talent Film-making creativity has been supported by two major studios. Productions at Shepperton have included Richard Attenborough’s Gandhi and Ridley Scott’s Alien. Pinewood’s most famous products must be the James Bond films. Both theater and film have their own annual festivals, including one of the biggest festivals in Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh. Visual expression The visual arts also show Britain’s creative spirit, from Romantic Age painters like Turner and Constable to groups such as the Pre-Raphaelites and the modernist sculpture of Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth. Today’s famous artists — Damien Hirst or Tracey Emin — regularly show in the newspapers, and their works are sold at high prices. 21. Which of the following helps actors and writers a lot? A. Musical theaters. B. Stratford-upon-Avon. C. London’s West End. D. Regional theaters. 22. What can we learn from the passage about Charlie Chaplin? A. He came from a rich family. B. He went to theater school as a child. C. He began as a child entertainer in Hollywood. D. He contributed to the early film industry in Hollywood. 23. What do we know about Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin? A. You have to pay a lot to buy their works. B. They have both invented new art forms. C. They mainly learnt from Romantic Age painters. D. You can buy their works from many major galleries. B I like music. I think maybe most people like it as much as I do. I believe other people would have the same feeling towards music. For me, music can always make me feel happy and relaxed. Sometimes when I feel very depressed, or suffer setbacks, music can work its magic which helps me go through unpleasant mood. Music makes me feel quiet and peaceful. Furthermore, it has the power to revive my spirit. So I can imagine if there’s no music in the world, how boring and colourless our world might be. There are so many different styles of music such as pop, classic, rock, heavy metal and so on. Maybe everyone has different tastes and likes different styles. Even though music gives us different effects in different conditions, one thing can be ensured for us that music can help us release the pressure when we feel nervous. And it can depurate (净化) our heart. When we feel happy, we can listen to some music which makes us happier; if we feel sad and frustrated, we can choose the music which gives us power and makes us refreshed. If we are introverted people, we can listen to the music which makes us more outgoing. Above all, I’ve stated so many effects of music. We have so many beautiful melodies in the world which could make our life more and more pleasant. So I think we should thank the people who create music, who use rhythms to express various feelings and things as we use articles and languages to express our thinking. So nice! They create the great music, while music makes our world even better. I love music forever! 24. Which of the following is not the reason for the author’s love for music? A. Music can always make the author feel happy and relaxed. B. Music helps the author go through unpleasant mood. C. Music gives the author great imagination. D. Music makes the author feel quiet and peaceful. 25. What can be ensured for us about different types of music? A. Everyone has the same taste and likes the same style. B. Music gives us a similar effect in many conditions. C. Music can help us to reduce our pressure. D. Music can sometimes hurt our heart. 26. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “introverted” in the second paragraph? A. Depressed. B. Delighted. C. Confused. D. Quiet and shy. 27. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Music can help us to be healthy. B. We can’t live without music. C. There are many kinds of music in the world. D. Music makes our life pleasant. C Do you like to keep fit? We’re always told that regular exercise is good for our body and mind. More and more people are taking up activities that improve their fitness. But is there a risk that some of us might get obsessed (着迷的) and overdo it? Well, for some people, fitness has become an obsession as they aim for perfection. And fitness trackers and apps can add to this addiction, especially if someone is driven by achievement and perfectionism. And sharing data on social media means exercising becomes public and competitive, which could cause problems in someone who is vulnerable (脆弱的). Experts say this can lead to a medical condition called orthorexia nervosa, or addiction to healthy eating and overexercise. Untreated, it can lead to malnutrition and mental health complications. Too much exercise can also take its toll on someone’s physical health as well. Symptoms of overexercising include injuries such as a broken leg and a low immune system. So how much exercise is too much? Researches found the ideal pace to jog was about eight kilometers per hourand that it was best to jog no more than three times a week or for 2.5 hours in total, showing that moderate jogging is possibly more beneficial than being inactive or undertaking strenuous (剧烈的) jogging. If you’re more of a couch potato than a sprinter, this might sound like good news. But for amateur athletes who can’t help but push their bodies to the limit, the advice from Martin Turner, a sports and exercise psychologist, is, “It’s all about letting go, not being obsessed, learning not to control everything, saying, ‘You don’t need to be perfect.’” 28. What contributes most to people’s addiction to overexercise according to Paragraph 2? A. Their urge for social support. B. Their pursuit of perfectionism. C. Their addiction to fitness apps. D. Their concern over health issues. 29. What does the underlined phrase “take its toll” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Having a bad effect. B. Going hand in hand. C. Making little difference. D. Playing an important role. 30. What is the passage mainly about? A. The risk of fitness obsession. B. The importance of mental health. C. The benefits of moderate jogging. D. The symptoms of overexercising. 31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A. Science. B. Opinion. C. Culture. D. Lifestyle. D Opinions differ on the question of whether it is better to live in the city or in the countryside. However, due to the rapid upward trend in house prices in cities, people are increasingly choosing to move to a rural(乡村的) area. Reason enough to take a closer look at the arguments for living in the city and in the country. Living in the city continues to be extremely popular. The proportion of the population living in rural areas has been falling continuously since the middle of the 19th century which was marked by industrialization(工业化). More and more people moved to the cities to find work. Infrastructure is one of the biggest advantages of cities. A well-developed network of public transportation often makes that a car is not absolutely necessary. In the countryside, on the other hand, you almost always need a car to be flexible(灵活的). Related to infrastructure, mobility is also an argument for living in the city. Very often, rural regions are not or only connected to the rail network and also do not have an adequate bus system. In the cities, there is a wide range of entertaining options, from cultural opportunities and other clubs. The latter, however, are increasingly found in the countryside as well. In addition, rural areas offer many options for outdoor activities. The expansion of digital networks is still in its beginnings in some rural regions. Here, the city clearly has the better offer. However, this is set to change, and various research projects and plans to expand digital networks are intended to promote the connection of rural residential areas. 32. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the main topic. B. To raise readers’ interest. C. To put forward a reason. D. To present different opinions. 33. What resulted in the growth of the population in cities? A. Colorful outdoor activities. B. Low housing prices. C. More job opportunities. D. Strong cultural atmosphere. 34. What is the author’s attitude towards life in the countryside? A. Uncaring. B. Optimistic. C. Doubtful. D. Grateful. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. The means of transportation in the city. B. The similarities between different cultures. C. The advantages of living in the countryside. D. The different views on living in the city or the rural area. 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。 Amazing Benefits of Listening to Music If you love listening to music, you’re good company. ___36___ ★Music makes you happier.

Today is my basketball Grand-final! My team of six enthusiastic boys led by our coach, Jack, has worked extremely hard just to make the finals. My heart was pounding a hundred kilometres an hour as I walked into our home ground. As I hurried to our team bench, our opponents caught my attention. They seemed a lot taller and “meaner” looking. Whistle blew. Five of us started on the court. Our opponent got hold of the ball first. They were unbelievably fast. They kept breaking our defences and kept scoring goals. Excited parents were cheering so much that their faces were as red as beetroots. Even our best, Bryce, could not stop our opponents from scoring, which annoyed him a lot. By half time, both teams were extremely exhausted and our opponents were ten goals ahead, which presented us with an enormous but achievable challenge. Jack was awfully anxious as we were not playing anywhere near our best. He told us that we could still win if we made our transitions much quicker so that penalty shots came our way.He also directed us to rebound (抢断篮板) and position ourselves better to receive and score goals. Most important, he reminded us to play as a team. Our team was all fired up. The second half started in our favour. We were as quick as lightning on the court. We were dribbling (运球), passing, shooting and rebounding without any mistakes. We caught our opponents by surprise. The scores were almost level. We were trailing only by one point. The crowd was growing wild with excitement, fuelling our confidence. At the same time, our opponents switched back to attention and started playing like what they did in the first half, making it harder for us to score. One minute left! Our opponent threw in the ball but I managed to steal it! Our team was bursting with happiness! More opponents were heading my way and I had to pass the ball to Bryce. Instead of passing on the ball, he did the most unexpected thing. He tried to score from half court! He missed by miles! 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。 Then I noticed Jack signaled to the referee for a pause. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Whistle blew again and we came back to the court. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 嘉积中学2024—2025学年度第一学期高中教学质量监测(期中) 高二英语试题 (时间：120分钟 满分：150分) 欢迎你参加这次测试，祝你取得好成绩! 第Ⅰ卷(共105分) 第一部分 听力(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does George prefer to do?

I think maybe most people like it as much as I do. I believe other people would have the same feeling towards music. For me, music can always make me feel happy and relaxed. Sometimes when I feel very depressed, or suffer setbacks, music can work its magic which helps me go through unpleasant mood. Music makes me feel quiet and peaceful. Furthermore, it has the power to revive my spirit. So I can imagine if there’s no music in the world, how boring and colourless our world might be. There are so many different styles of music, such as pop, classic, rock, heavy metal and so on. Maybe everyone has different tastes and likes different styles. Even though music gives us different effects in different conditions, one thing can be ensured for us that music can help us release the pressure when we feel nervous. And it can depurate (净化) our heart. When we feel happy, we can listen to some music which makes us happier; if we feel sad and frustrated, we can choose the music which gives us power and makes us refreshed. If we are introverted people, we can listen to the music which makes us more outgoing. Above all, I’ve stated so many effects of music. We have so many beautiful melodies in the world which could make our life more and more pleasant. So I think we should thank the people who create music, who use rhythms to express various feelings and things as we use articles and languages to express our thinking. So nice! They create the great music, while music makes our world even better. I love music forever! 24. Which of the following is not the reason for the author’s love for music? A.

Sometimes when I feel very depressed, or suffer setbacks, music can work its magic which helps me go through unpleasant mood. Music makes me feel quiet and peaceful.”（对我来说，音乐总能让我感到快乐和放松。有时，当我感到非常沮丧，或遭受挫折时，音乐可以发挥它的魔力，帮助我度过不愉快的情绪。音乐使我感到安静和安宁。）可知，作者热爱音乐是因为音乐总是能让作者感到快乐和放松、能帮助作者度过不愉快的情绪和使作者感到安静和安宁，与选项A、B和D表述一致，但文章中并没有提到音乐赋予作者极大的想象力。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段关键句“Even though music gives us different effects in different conditions, one thing can be ensured for us that music can help us release the pressure when we feel nervous.”（尽管音乐在不同的条件下给我们带来不同的效果，但有一件事是可以保证的，那就是当我们感到紧张时，音乐可以帮助我们释放压力。）可知，不同类型的音乐可以帮助我们减轻压力。故选C项。 【26题详解】 词义猜测题。根据画线单词下句“we can listen to the music which makes us more outgoing”（我们可以听使我们更加外向的音乐）可知，本段介绍的是如何选择你听的音乐，听使自己更加外向的音乐的人，应该是内向的人，“Quiet and shy”意为“文静又害羞的”，符合句意，能够表达画线单词的意思。故选D项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读文章，结合最后一段关键句“We have so many beautiful melodies in the world which could make our life more and more pleasant.”（世界上有那么多美妙的旋律，可以让我们的生活越来越愉快。）可知，文章主要介绍了音乐在我们生活中的作用，它可以帮助我们缓解压力，让我们的生活越来越愉快。故选D项。 C Do you like to keep fit? We’re always told that regular exercise is good for our body and mind. More and more people are taking up activities that improve their fitness. But is there a risk that some of us might get obsessed (着迷的) and overdo it? Well, for some people, fitness has become an obsession as they aim for perfection. And fitness trackers and apps can add to this addiction, especially if someone is driven by achievement and perfectionism. And sharing data on social media means exercising becomes public and competitive, which could cause problems in someone who is vulnerable (脆弱的). Experts say this can lead to a medical condition called orthorexia nervosa, or addiction to healthy eating and overexercise. Untreated, it can lead to malnutrition and mental health complications. Too much exercise can also take its toll on someone’s physical health as well. Symptoms of overexercising include injuries such as a broken leg and a low immune system. So how much exercise is too much? Researches found the ideal pace to jog was about eight kilometers per hourand that it was best to jog no more than three times a week or for 2.5 hours in total, showing that moderate jogging is possibly more beneficial than being inactive or undertaking strenuous (剧烈的) jogging. If you’re more of a couch potato than a sprinter, this might sound like good news. But for amateur athletes who can’t help but push their bodies to the limit, the advice from Martin Turner, a sports and exercise psychologist, is, “It’s all about letting go, not being obsessed, learning not to control everything, saying, ‘You don’t need to be perfect.’” 28. What contributes most to people’s addiction to overexercise according to Paragraph 2? A. Their urge for social support. B. Their pursuit of perfectionism. C. Their addiction to fitness apps. D. Their concern over health issues. 29. What does the underlined phrase “take its toll” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Having a bad effect. B. Going hand in hand. C. Making little difference. D. Playing an important role. 30. What is the passage mainly about? A. The risk of fitness obsession. B. The importance of mental health. C. The benefits of moderate jogging. D. The symptoms of overexercising. 31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A. Science. B. Opinion. C. Culture. D. Lifestyle. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了过度沉迷健身给我们带来的影响，以及建议我们要适度健身，不必追求完美。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Well, for some people, fitness has become an obsession as they aim for perfection.(嗯，对一些人来说，健身已经成为一种痴迷，因为他们追求完美。)”可知，有些人追求完美导致对健身十分痴迷，故选B。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Symptoms of overexercising include injuries such as a broken leg and a low immune system.(过度运动的症状包括腿骨折和免疫系统低下等损伤。)”可知，后句是在解读过度健身带来的危害，由此可知“take its toll”是有坏影响的意思，故选A。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“But is there a risk that some of us might get obsessed (着迷的) and overdo it?(但是，我们中的一些人可能会沉迷于此并过度使用吗？)”以及最后一段中“It’s all about letting go, not being obsessed, learning not to control everything, saying, ‘You don’t need to be perfect.’(这一切都是关于放手，不要迷恋，学会不控制一切，说，‘你不需要完美。’)”可知，本文讲述了过度沉迷健身给我们带来的影响，故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Do you like to keep fit?(你喜欢运动吗？)”以及结合全文可知，本文是在讲述我们过度健身的影响，应该属于生活方式类。故选D。 D Opinions differ on the question of whether it is better to live in the city or in the countryside. However, due to the rapid upward trend in house prices in cities, people are increasingly choosing to move to a rural(乡村的) area. Reason enough to take a closer look at the arguments for living in the city and in the country. Living in the city continues to be extremely popular. The proportion of the population living in rural areas has been falling continuously since the middle of the 19th century which was marked by industrialization(工业化). More and more people moved to the cities to find work. Infrastructure is one of the biggest advantages of cities. A well-developed network of public transportation often makes that a car is not absolutely necessary. In the countryside, on the other hand, you almost always need a car to be flexible(灵活的). Related to infrastructure, mobility is also an argument for living in the city. Very often, rural regions are not or only connected to the rail network and also do not have an adequate bus system. In the cities, there is a wide range of entertaining options, from cultural opportunities and other clubs. The latter, however, are increasingly found in the countryside as well. In addition, rural areas offer many options for outdoor activities. The expansion of digital networks is still in its beginnings in some rural regions. Here, the city clearly has the better offer. However, this is set to change, and various research projects and plans to expand digital networks are intended to promote the connection of rural residential areas. 32. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the main topic. B. To raise readers’ interest. C. To put forward a reason. D. To present different opinions. 33. What resulted in the growth of the population in cities? A Colorful outdoor activities. B. Low housing prices. C. More job opportunities. D. Strong cultural atmosphere. 34. What is the author’s attitude towards life in the countryside? A. Uncaring. B. Optimistic. C. Doubtful. D. Grateful. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. The means of transportation in the city. B. The similarities between different cultures. C. The advantages of living in the countryside. D. The different views on living in the city or the rural area. 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇议论文。在城市生活好还是在农村生活好？文章就这一话题，对生活在城市和农村的优缺点分别进行了阐述和讨论。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Reason enough to take a closer look at the arguments for living in the city and in the country.”（理由足以让我们仔细看看是住在城市还是住在乡村）可知，第一段提出了住在城市还是住在农村都是有一定理由的；而第二、三、四段主要是描述了住在城市或农村各自的利弊，是对住在城市或农村选择的解释说明，所以第一段是为了引出主要话题的。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The proportion of the population living in rural areas has been falling continuously since the middle of the 19th century which was marked by industrialization(工业化). More and more people moved to the cities to find work.”（生活在农村地区的人口比例自19世纪中叶以工业化为标志以来一直在下降，越来越多的人到城市去找工作。）可知，自工业化以来，城市的就业机会增多，越来越多的人到城市去找工作，导致了农村人口的减少和城市人口的增长。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The latter, however, are increasingly found in the countryside as well. In addition, rural areas offer many options for outdoor activities.”（然而，后者也越来越多地出现在农村。此外，农村地区还提供了许多户外活动的选择。）和最后一段“However, this is set to change, and various research projects and plans to expand digital networks are intended to promote the connection of rural residential areas.”（然而，这种情况将会改变，各种研究项目和扩大数字网络的计划都旨在促进农村居民区的连接。）可知，作者认为虽然农村生活目前还有一些不便，但今后会逐渐改变，作者对此是持乐观态度的。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Opinions differ on the question of whether it is better to live in the city or in the countryside.”（关于住在城市好还是住在农村好这个问题，人们意见不一。）及全文内容可知，本文主要讨论了人们对于住在城市还是农村所持有的不同观点。故选D。 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。 Amazing Benefits of Listening to Music If you love listening to music, you’re good company. ___36___ ★Music makes you happier.

Today is my basketball Grand-final! My team of six enthusiastic boys led by our coach, Jack, has worked extremely hard just to make the finals. My heart was pounding a hundred kilometres an hour as I walked into our home ground. As I hurried to our team bench, our opponents caught my attention. They seemed a lot taller and “meaner” looking. Whistle blew. Five of us started on the court. Our opponent got hold of the ball first. They were unbelievably fast. They kept breaking our defences and kept scoring goals. Excited parents were cheering so much that their faces were as red as beetroots. Even our best, Bryce, could not stop our opponents from scoring, which annoyed him a lot. By half time, both teams were extremely exhausted and our opponents were ten goals ahead, which presented us with an enormous but achievable challenge. Jack was awfully anxious as we were not playing anywhere near our best. He told us that we could still win if we made our transitions much quicker so that penalty shots came our way.He also directed us to rebound (抢断篮板) and position ourselves better to receive and score goals. Most important, he reminded us to play as a team. Our team was all fired up. The second half started in our favour. We were as quick as lightning on the court. We were dribbling (运球), passing, shooting and rebounding without any mistakes. We caught our opponents by surprise. The scores were almost level. We were trailing only by one point. The crowd was growing wild with excitement, fuelling our confidence. At the same time, our opponents switched back to attention and started playing like what they did in the first half, making it harder for us to score. One minute left! Our opponent threw in the ball but I managed to steal it! Our team was bursting with happiness! More opponents were heading my way and I had to pass the ball to Bryce. Instead of passing on the ball, he did the most unexpected thing. He tried to score from half court! He missed by miles! 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。 Then I noticed Jack signaled to the referee for a pause. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Whistle blew again and we came back to the court. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: Then I noticed Jack signaled to the referee for a pause. So we headed towards Jack and gathered around him. Somehow one of teammates began complaining about Bryce. Feeling frustrated and aggrieved, Bryce argued that he just tried to get scores. Jack looked into our eyes,saying, “It is easy to blame someone for mistake, but remember that basketball game is a team effort. We win together or lose together!” So ashamed was Bryce that he promised to keep calm and cooperate. Whistle blew again and we came back to the court. Though our opponents had possession of the ball, I stole it once again and passed it to Bryce. Finding he got double teamed, Bryce managed to pass the ball to one of us. He shot. Yes! We made it! The final buzzer rang! We screamed with excitement and hugged together. Since this memorable basketball match, we have been ready for every battle. There is no limit to what we can accomplish as long as we play a team. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和他们的队友在一场篮球赛中，上半场处于劣势，对方速度特别快，负了十个球。中场休息时间，在Bryce和教练的指导下调整战略，总结教训，准备下半场挽回局面。下半场我们奋力拼搏，只差一份持平比分。在最后一分钟里，球到了Bryce手中，他是我们球队最棒的，却失误错失一个机会。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后我注意到杰克示意裁判暂停一下。”可知，第一段可描写接下来团队聚在一起，和教练交流。 ②由第二段首句内容“哨声又响了，我们回到了球场。”可知，第二段可描写最后一分钟的拼搏在场上团队协作，取得成功。 2.续写线索：申请暂停——和队友教练交流——策略——上场——团队合作——进球 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①向……走去：walk towards/head towards ②牢记：remember/memorize/keep in mind ③完成，实现：accomplish/achieve/fulfil 情绪类 ①沮丧：sad/frustrated/depressed/discouraged ②难忘的：memorable/unforgettable 【点睛】[高分句型1]Feeling frustrated and aggrieved, Bryce argued that he just tried to get scores.（运用了现在分词做状语，及宾语从句） [高分句型2]So ashamed was Bryce that he promised to keep calm and cooperate.（运用了so…that…句型及部分倒装） [高分句型3]There is no limit to what we can accomplish as long as we play a team.（运用了what引导的宾语从句及as long as引导的条件状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
