上海市七年级下学期英语期末考试试卷D卷 一、 阅读理解 (共4题；共39分)1. （15分）阅读表达。If you visit the animal shelter in Salinas, California, youll see huge wood cutouts(剪下的图形) of a dog and a cat. These signs were placed in front of the building to catch peoples attention. The supersized cut outs make people curious and encourage them to visit the shelter and maybe even adopt(收养) a pet. Each year, the Salinas shelter takes in around 2,000 dogs and 2,000 cats. The animals are either strays or are dropped off by people who couldnt take care of them. Of the 4,000 animals, some of them are finally adopted into new homes. Some animals are moved to other shelters. And, unluckily, some cannot be saved because they are too sick or are considered dangerous.Animal shelters provide food, medicine, and a safe place for animals to sleep. But they are not ideal homes. The shelters are loud, and the animals stay in small cages. The people who work at shelters do their best to care for the animals, but the animals do not always get the attention or exercise they need.To prevent so many animals from becoming homeless, pet owners should take care of their pets. One of the best ways to care for pets is to spray or neuter them. This surgery prevents cats and dogs from having more babies. And that reduces the number of homeless animals that end up in shelters.（1）How many dogs and cats does the Saunas shelter accept every year?（2）Why are the shelters not the best homes for the animals according to the passage?（3）If you find a homeless cat in the street, will you take it home? Why or Why not?2. （6分） Mr Black was walking in the forest（森林） He was scared when he heard a terrible noise. But he could not get out of the forest.

You tum around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!Parapsychologists(R y3)say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a six sense really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist(心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects(受试者)were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later when he questioned the subjects, almost all them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they werent. Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they werent.Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves（1）Whats the aim of the two experiments for? A . Prove why humans have a sixth sense.B . Explain when people can have a sixth senseC . Show how people act while being watched in the labD . Study whether humans can sense when they are stared at（2）The underlined word outcome in the last paragraph most probably means? A . ValueB . ResultC . PerformanceD . Connection（3）What is the writers opinion about the the sixth sense? A . He is not sure about itB . He is sure that it doesnt exist(存在)C . He wants us to find out together with himD . He agrees with the parapsychologists（4）What can we learn from the passage? A . People are born with a sixth sense.B . the experiments support parapsychologists idea.C . the subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.D . people have a sixth sense in all places.二、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共5分)5. （5分）任务型阅读CToday,we are talking with Fritzi,a great collector of china(瓷制的)elephants.(Q=Question;A=Answer)Q:_A:Well,it all goes back to when I was a kid.When I was about six or seven,one of my cousins gave me a small china elephant for my birthday,and I liked it so much that I decided to start collecting them.Q:So,youve been collecting them ever since?A:Yeah,thats right.Its been almost thirty years.Q:_A: I dont know,reallyI like the fact that there are so many different kinds and I also like the fact that some of them are so beautifulAlso,I really like elephantsTheyre amazing animalsQ：_A：Ive got over five thousandIts one of the biggest collections in my country,I thinkIm getting new ones all the time as wellI find them in second-hand shopsI buy them on the Internet and sometimes my friends give them to me as giftsQ：_A：Well,Ive got a special room for them in my house where lve got them all on display(陈列)Ive got shelves and shelves of them!In fact,one day ld like to open my own china elephant museumIm sure a lot of people would come and see themQ：_A：I do,in factIts one of the oldest ones in my collectionIts from 1897,and its a big black one with sad eyesIts so beautiful,and it makes me want to crybut in a good way根据材料内容从方框中选择合适的句子填入材料空缺处，使材料内容完整、正确，其中有一个句子是多余的。AWhat is it that interests you about them?BDo you have a favourite one?CHow did you get into collecting china elephants?DHow many have you got now?EDo you have any friends who also like collecting them?FWhere do you keep them all?三、 完形填空 (共1题；共10分)6. （10分）先通读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选择可以填入空白处的最佳答案。Gina is a new teacher in a middle school.
