2019-2020年高二英语10月月考试题(V)第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节：（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）When my friend Lesa was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer, another friend and I went to the hospital to spend some time with her. We bought her a small toy and named him LemonAide. We gave LemonAide to Lesa and told her he was to go with her to all of her treatments to remind her that we were thinking of her and caring about her even though we could not always be with her. When the treatments were pleted, she said when someone else needed him she would pass him along.A few months later，much to my surprise, it was me that she passed him to. LemonAide went with me to all of my treatments.One day while waiting for my doctor I decided we could market the idea to fight cancer. Lesa thought it was a great idea so we founded the organization that came to be known as LemonAide s Friends, Inc. We designed our organization to remind people fighting cancer that there are people who love and care about them all the time. Today we have totally 5013 volunteers. The money raised is donated to cancer patients who do not have insurance. The physicians on our Board of Advisors determine how and where our money is donated.LemonAide is for men, women, and children of all ages and to date has been sent to 34 states and 33 countries to provide smiling support for people fighting cancer. When life gave us lemons we made LemonAide, a soft smiling toy that represents love, support, and encouragement.1The author went to the hospital with her friend _ Ato operate on Lesa Bto treat her disease Cto acpany Lesa Dto look after LemonAide2Lesa was given a small toy because _ Ahe represented her organization Bhe could help weaken her pain Cshe would think of her friends Dher friends tried to fort her3It can be inferred that _ Athe author had suffered from cancer BLemonAide had suffered from cancer CLesa had recovered from cancer DLemonAide learned to look after the author4Lesa and the author formed an organization to _ Acure cancer Braise money Chelp cancer patients Dhelp their friendBDo you often feel lonely? What do you do when you feel that way? Hide yourself away and spend your time reading, watching TV or walking around?You might think that feeling lonely is just like feeling happy, sad or scared that its just one of your various moods. That is true. However, if you let yourself be lonely for too long without dealing with it, you could be making a serious mistake.Doctors have known for some time that feeling lonely is bad for the mind. It can lead to mental health problems such as depression, stress and reduce confidence. “Being lonely means not feeling connected or cared for, but its not about being mentally alone,” Lisa Jaremka, scientist from Ohio State University, US, told Live Science in January. And theres growing evidence that not having friends is connected with physical illness as well.In xx, for example, scientists studied 2,800 women who had cancer. They found that those who had few friends or family were five times more likely to die of their disease than women with many social contacts. Also, even healthy people had a better chance of falling ill if they felt left out by others, according to the BBC.The results have scientists thinking that loneliness might hurt the immune system(免疫系统), which protects the body from diseases.Hoping to prove this theory, Jaremka and her research team put volunteers(志愿者) through a stress test. During the test, volunteers were asked to make an unprepared speech in front of a group of stony-faced people. The researchers found that volunteers who said they were lonely in their daily lives felt more stress during the test. And their blood samples showed that all the stress had managed to cause harmful changes to their immune system.“Loneliness has been thought of in many ways as a chronic stressor(慢性增压器) a socially painful situation that can last for quite a long time, ” explained Jaremka, who led the study.The number of people suffering from loneliness is increasing all over the world. However, solving the problem is easier said than done. It wont work to just “tell anyone to go out and find someone to love you”, said Jaremka. “We need to create support networks.”5If people feel lonely for a long time, _.A. they wont feel happy anymoreB. they are more mentally harmed than physicallyC. they will find the feeling goes away by itselfD. they are more likely to fall ill6What was the purpose of the stress test carried out by Jaremkas team?A. To find out how people fight diseases.B. To prove loneliness hurts peoples immune systems.C. To find out the relationship between loneliness and stress.D. To see how peoples emotions change when they give unprepared speeches.7We can conclude from the article that _.A. loneliness has bee the No. 1 killer in the worldB. loneliness is increasing due to advanced technologiesC. websites must be set up to help people deal with lonelinessD. much more work needs to be done to fight lonelinessCI told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, “You mean fortunately.” He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to plain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I fort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are there to be faced and overe. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote, “Character cannot be developed in ease. Only through experiences of suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.”One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity (逆境). From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents and difficulties. Some are of our making but many are no fault of our own. While we cannot choose the adversity, we can choose our attitude towards it.Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accidentHe was determined to fly again and went on to bee one of the leading flying aviators in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the GermansHe was an inspiration to others during the war. He said, “Dont listen to anyone who tells you that you cant do this or that. Thats nonsense. Make up your mind, youll never use crutches (拐杖) or a stick, and then have a go at everything. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”The biographies (传记) of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overe the difficulties they faced. The mon thread is that they did not bee depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won.Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.8. Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage?A. Going to a gym is greatly beneficial to peoples health. B. Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise. C. Those who want to achieve success cant expect to live an easy life. D. Peoples attitude to adversity is the only factor of their success.9. By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us “ .” A. Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.B. A bad workman quarrels with his tools.C. If you risk nothing, you will have nothing.D. Failure is the mother of success10. Following this passage, the author will further talk about . A. how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the adversity he faced B. why it is important to keep optimistic in face of adversity C. what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adversity you face D. what great people have in mon11. Which of the following can best function as the title of the passage? A. Life is full of adversityB. Different attitudes towards adversityC. Nothing is impossible D. Face adversity with a smileDAmong all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people. The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured pletely, bringing happiness and moreliving days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span (寿命) can be prolonged. Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families, with the English imperial (皇家的) family being a good example, have hereditary diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not e out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the government must take care to control gene technology.12. What does “them” in the second paragraph refer to ? A. People with cancer or heart disease. B. Millions of people with serious diseases. C. Some diseases doctors can do nothing with. D. The two illnesses of cancer and heart disease13. What can gene technology do according to paragraph three? A. It can help the English imperial family out. B. It can be used to clone human babies. C. It can help people to give birth of a baby. D. It is likely to treat hereditary diseases.14. What are people worried about according to the passage? A. Human babies may be cloned in a large scale. B. Healthy human babies will soon be cloned. C. Scientists may well find the wrong genes. D. The government may not control gene techs.15. This passage is mainly written to _. A. show gene technology will benefit people B. show gene technology will do harm as well C. tell that gene technology is a hot topic D. tell that gene technology is growing fast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。The Winners Guide to SuccessDo you know what makes people successful? To find out the answers, an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people around the world. 16 Be responsible for yourselfSometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success, youre giving away your own power. 17 Write a planIt is very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away. 18 Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map” youll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time.Be willing to pay the price 19 So you must be ready to work hard even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you wont get anything valuable. 20 It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done.When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope.A.
