石室中学高2027届高二下英语专项练习一 考试时间：90分钟，总分：120分 第一部分 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，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 A In our library we encourage scholarly activities but prohibit behaviors that disturb others’ work in the library. Violations（违反） may lead to restricted access. Cellphone Usage Turn cell phones off or set to silent mode as you enter the library. Out of respect for others, if you must use a cell phone while in a library, move to one of the following general locations if your conversation will be more than a few seconds: ● public space away from quiet study areas ● study rooms ● lobbies or entrances to libraries (that are not part of the main library) Any person who does not follow this policy may be asked to leave the library. Children in the Library The resources of the libraries are primarily intended for use by Boston College students, staff and faculty. However, young children accompanied by an adult are welcome in the libraries. Parents or adult guardians who bring young children to the library are responsible for their protection and safety and must never leave children unattended. Children cannot be monitored and supervised by the staff; therefore the safety of unattended children cannot be guaranteed. Food & Drink Food is limited to small items which are generally consumed individually while seated at tables or study rooms. Drinks in covered containers and water bottles are allowed. Not permitted: ●Meals or messy, strong-smelling foods (e.g. pizza, salads, sandwiches and durians) . ●Group meals where food is shared by more than one person. ●Delivery of food to the library. 1. Where can a person take a call for a few minutes in the library? A. At a quiet study desk. B. In a study room. C. In a lobby of the main library. D. Near the reading room. 2. Who should answer for the safety of young children in the library? A. Library staff members. B. The child’s school teacher. C. Campus security officers. D. The accompanying adult. 3. Which of the following behaviors violates the library’s Food & Drink policy? A. Drinking from a covered coffee cup. B. Eating a chocolate bar at a study room. C. Sharing a box of stinky tofu with study partners. D. Keeping a sealed bottle of juice in the bag. B I’ve received dozens of these emails throughout my attempts to become a writer, “Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your work to us. However, this piece is not right for our magazine”; “Thank you for submitting your story to our magazine. Unfortunately, we are unable to publish it”; etc. Nobody likes getting such emails. They are painful and can often be demotivating. However, one day I received a beautiful rejection letter. The editor wrote that he enjoyed my non-fiction article. He also wrote, “I like your writing style. It is very engaging. Nevertheless, I did find a few spots in your story where the wording seemed a little unusual to me. Not that it was wrong but that it tended to draw my attention away from the story. You should read as much English as you can to build a vocabulary and usage that draws our attention to feelings, not words.” As a non-native English speaker, I often found it challenging to write in English. But this editor’s letter was of great help to me as it elucidated where and how I should improve my writing. I read Ernest Hemingway’s books and Jane Austen’s classic novels in order to improve my language skills. I read English newspapers and magazines and listened to talk shows on the radio. I learned at least three new words every day. After eight months of this process, I went back and read the essay I had originally sent to the editor. I rewrote the story and sent it to the same editor who congratulated me and accepted it for publication. What I took away from this experience was that I should never be satisfied with just “OK” results. I need to keep working on myself and to try to constantly expand my knowledge by taking advantage of every single moment, advice, comment, and review. I do feel uncomfortable sometimes, but I am not scared. The bigger the challenge, the bigger the opportunity to learn and grow. 4. Why was the editor dissatisfied with the author’s article? A. The story was too complicated. B. Some unusual feelings were expressed. C. The writing style was far from engaging. D. Some of the language was not natural enough. 5. What does the underlined word “elucidated” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Proved. B. Clarified. C. Supported. D. Confirmed. 6. What did the author learn from her experience? A. Great minds usually think alike. B. Someone always sees the good in you. C. One should always work towards improvement. D. We shouldn’t be ashamed to seek advice from others. 7. What would be the best title of the text? A. Learning from Rejection: A Writer’s Growth B. The Art of Accepting Praise: A Writer’s Strategy C. From Rejection to Publication: A Writer’s Dilemma D. Focusing on Learning Language: A Writer’s Success C A rocket built by students at the University of Southern California (USC) Rocket Propulsion Lab (RPL) has broken a 20-year record. Aftershock II, launched from Nevada’s Black Rock Desert on October 20, 2024, reached an altitude of 470,000 feet. This was 90,000 feet higher than the previous amateur rocket altitude record of 380,000 feet. The record was set by the Civilian（民用的） Space Exploration Team’s GoFast rocket in 2004. The 14-foot tall Aftershock II broke the sound barrier within two seconds of launch. It reached a maximum speed of 3,600 mph — 5.5 times the speed of sound — just 19 seconds after launch. This slightly exceeded the speed record set by GoFast in 2004. While its engine burned out shortly after launch, Aftershock II continued its ascent. It left the Earth’s atmosphere in about 85 seconds after launch and reached its peak altitude in 92 seconds. At this point, the rocket’s nose cone detached and deployed its parachute for a safe landing in the desert. Here, the eagerly waiting student scientists got it back. Aftershock II’s success can largely be credited to technological innovations developed by the 100-person team at RPL. The rocket’s titanium-coated （钛涂层的） fins and a new heat-resistant paint enabled it to endure the extreme temperatures generated at high speeds. Student-designed computer systems allowed real-time rocket position tracking and sent back live data throughout the flight. “This was probably the coolest thing we’ve gotten the opportunity to do. We’re just college students who have homework, dishes and groceries to do, and we just sent a rocket to space. We broke the world record and sent a rocket higher than anyone ever has,” said Operations Lead Jayna Rybner. RPL was founded in 2005 to launch student-designed and built rockets into space. The student-led group made history in 2019 when their Traveler IV rocket became the first student-built rocket to cross the Kármán line. This imaginary line, 328,083 feet above the Earth’s surface, marks the internationally recognized edge of space. 8. Which of the following best describes Aftershock II? A. The highest-flying civilian-built rocket. B. The first entirely student-designed rocket. C. The fastest commercially-launched rocket. D. The most technologically advanced rocket. 9. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. The performance of GoFast rocket. B. The flight details of Aftershock II. C. The major achievements of USCRPL. D. The design features of Aftershock II. 10. What can be inferred from Rybner’s words? A. The launch earned widespread recognition. B. Aftershock II raised students’ interest in rocketry. C. Students took great pride in their accomplishments. D. GoFast’s success inspired technological innovation. 11. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To provide some advice for readers. B. To add some background information. C. To summarize the previous paragraphs. D. To introduce a new topic for discussion. D Enough “meaningless drivel”. That’s the message from a group of members of the UK government who have been examining how social media firms like LinkedIn gather and use social media data. The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee’s report, released last week, has blamed firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts and calls for an international standard or kitemark（认证标记）to identify sites that have clear terms and conditions. “The term and conditions statement that we all carelessly agree to is meaningless drivel to anyone,” says Andrew Miller, the chair of the committee. Instead, he says, firms should provide a plain-English version of their terms. The simplified version would be checked by a third party and awarded a kitemark if it is an accurate reflection of the original. It is not yet clear who would administer the scheme（方案）, but the UK government is looking at introducing it on a voluntary basis. “We need to think through how we make that work in practice.” says Miller. Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark? “I think if you went and did the survey, people would like to think they would,” says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of Southampton, UK, who studies open data. “We do know people worry a lot about the inappropriate use of their information.” But what would happen in practice is another matter, he says. Other organizations such as banks ask customers to sign long contracts they may not read or understand, but Miller believes social media requires special attention because it is so new. “We still don’t know how significant the long-term impact is going to be of unwise things that kids put on social media that come back and bite them in 20 years’ time,” he says. Shadbolt, who gave evidence to the committee, says the problem is that we don’t know how companies will use our data because their business models and uses of data are still evolving. Large collections of personal information have become valuable only recently, he says. The shock and anger when a social media firm does something with data that people don’t expect, even if users have apparently permission, show that the current situation isn’t working. If properly administered, a kitemark on terms and conditions could help people know what exactly they are signing up to. They would still have to actually read them though. 12. Which of the following is “meaningless drivel”? A. Legal contracts that social media firms make people sign up to. B. Warnings from the UK government against unsafe websites. C. Guidelines on how to use social media websites properly. D. Insignificant data collected by social media firms. 13. What may Nigel Shadbolt doubt about? A. Whether social media firms would conduct a survey on the kitemark scheme. B. Whether people would pay as much attention to a kitemark as they think. C. Whether a kitemark scheme would be workable on a nationwide scale. D. Whether the kitemark would help companies develop their business models. 14. Why does Andrew Miller think social media needs more attention than banks? A. Their users consist largely of kids under 20 years old. B. The language in their contracts is usually harder to understand. C. The information they collected could become more valuable in future. D. It remains unknown how users’ data will be taken advantage of. 15. What does the writer advise users of social media to do? A. Think carefully before posting anything onto such websites. B. Read the terms and conditions even if there is a kitemark. C. Take no further action if they can find a kitemark. D. Avoid providing too much personal information. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There’s no good reason not to have a meaningful life. 16 But through careful thinking and self-reflection, we can take steps to change that. One thing that can help you find meaning in your life is structured, systematic reflection. 17 Then follow up on that by reflecting on what you’d like to add to your life and what you could get rid of to make it more meaningful. If this proves tricky, try taking a look at the lives of people you respect and thinking about what makes you think their lives are meaningful. 18 Imagine yourself a few decades from now finding out that you only have a few months or even only a few days to live. What are you happy to have done and sad not to have done? It will likely focus you on what matters most. What’s more, if you take a closer look, you might realize that your life is already full of meaning. All too often we don’t recognize what’s important until we are likely to lose it. But there’s no need to wait for adversity to help you appreciate the great things in your life. 19 Finally, you can make small changes and create new habits that will help you appreciate the value in your life. 20 This can help you cultivate a deeper sense of gratitude and find joy in the simple pleasures of everyday life. A. Firstly, try to be more aware of your preference. B. It can also help to see your life from a new angle. C. There are usual arguments about how life is meaningless. D. Sadly, we are always left struggling to find meaning in life. E. You can always expose yourself to the value that’s all around you. F. Start by making a list of things that are already meaningful in your life. G. It comes down to trying to see all the small things in your life with fresh eyes. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共三节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从41～55各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I’d always dreamed of becoming a marine.

For young Lin Huiyin (1904-1955), it 46 (true) was a case of being in the right place at the wrong time. At 20, she traveled from China to Pennsylvania, US — a difficult journey in 47 early 1920s — 48 the university named after the state, hoping to study architecture. However, there was a major obstacle: she was a woman. Despite her 49 (admire) ambitions, the university’s architecture program rejected her 50 (apply) solely because of her gender. Instead, she enrolled in the fine arts school, where she completed all her courses, including architecture, except for one. The university did not allow women to do live figure drawing as it would expose them 51 the male body. It wasn’t until 1934, ten years later, that women were finally allowed into the architecture program, 52 by then it was too late for Lin.

In May, the University of Pennsylvania publicly awarded Lin the degree she so richly deserved, 55 (acknowledge) the historic injustice she faced. 第四部分 写作（满分25分） 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 The Meredith family lived in a small community. As the economy was in decline, some people in the town had lost their jobs. Many of their families were struggling to make ends meet. People were trying to help each other meet the challenges. Mrs. Meredith was a most kind and thoughtful woman. She spent a great deal of time visiting the poor. She knew they had problems, and they needed all kinds of help. When she had time, she would bring food and medicine to them. One morning she told her children about a family she had visited the day before. There was a man sick in bed, his wife, who took care of him and could not go out to work, and their little boy. The little boy — his name was Bernard — had interested her very much. “I wish you could see him,” she said to her own children, John, Harry and Clara. “He is such a help to his mother. He wants very much to earn some money, but I don’t see what he can do.”After their mother left the room, the children sat thinking about Bernard. “I wish we could help him to earn money,” said Clara. “His family’s suffering so much.” “So do I,” said Harry. “We really should do something to assist them.” For some moments, John said nothing, but, suddenly, he sprang to his feet and cried, “I have a great idea! I have a solution that we can all help accomplish.” The other children also jumped up all attention. When John had an idea, it was sure to be a good one. “I’ll tell you what we can do,” said John. “You know that big box of corn Uncle John sent us? Well, we can make popcorn, and put it into paper bags, and Bernard can take it around to the houses and sell it.” When Mrs. Meredith heard of John’s idea, she thought it was a good one, too._____________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With everything ready, Bernard started out on his new business._________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 石室中学高2027届高二下英语专项练习一答案 阅读理解：1-3 BDC 4-7 DBCA 8-11.

Together with her children, she paid a visit to the family, telling them about the plan. On hearing it, Bernard sprang to his feet, his heart filled with warmth. In high spirits, the four kids began to make popcorn, Mrs. Meredith going out to buy some paper bags. Tough as the process was, the kids made it with joint efforts ultimately. The scent of popcorn soon filled the room, cheering up everyone present. With everything ready, Bernard started out on his new business. He carried the popcorn in a basket, attempting to sell popcorn from door to door. Though surprised to see such a little and poorly-dressed boy selling popcorn at their doors, most people bought a bag or two. As night fell, Bernard sold out all the popcorn and earned a sum of money, which was a timely help for the poor family. He shared this exciting achievement with his friends instantly, thanking them again and again, for the creative idea put forward by John and their kindness illuminating the darkness. 评分要求：内容10分；语言10分；衔接与逻辑3分；书写2分 1. 内容分（10 分） 必须紧扣原文主题：善良、互助、劳动致富 情节合理连贯：制作→售卖→成功→感恩 人物性格一致：孩子热心、妈妈善良、Bernard 懂事 结尾正向升华：温暖、成长、社区温情 2. 语言分（10 分） 多用动作 / 心理 / 环境描写 高级词汇 + 固定搭配 句式多样：简单句 + 复合句 + 非谓语 3. 衔接与逻辑（3 分） 两段之间自然过渡 与开头语无缝衔接，不跑题 时间 / 动作顺序清晰 第一段逻辑链参考：妈妈赞同 → 准备→制作→包装→一切就绪 第二段逻辑链参考：开始售卖 → 过程及人们的反应→售卖成功→开心感恩→主题升华 ( 8 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
