2019-2020年高二英语1月会考试题第一部分 阅读理解（共20小题； 每小题2分，满分40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 You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead！Of course he isnt really dead. With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars or even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is blown up in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous actions, for nowadays there are stuntgirls too！1. Stuntmen are those who _.A. often dress up as actors B. prefer to lead dangerous livesC. often perform seemingly dangerous actions D. often fight each other for their lives2. Stuntmen earn their living by _.A. playing their dirty tricks B. selling their special skillsC. jumping out of high windows D. jumping from fast moving trains3. When a stuntman falls from a high building, _.A. he needs little protection B. he will be covered with a mattressC. his life is endangered D. his safety is generally all right4. Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance?A. Strength. B. Exactness. C. Speed. D. Carefulness.5. What can be inferred from the author s example of the Norwegian stuntman?A. Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman. B. The percentage of serious accidents is high.C. Parachutes must be of good quality. D. The cliff is too high.A young man was getting ready to finish school. For a long time he had looked forward to getting a beautiful sports car. He knew his father could well afford it, so he told him that was all he wanted. Then on the morning of his graduation , his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box. Surprised, the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible with his name on it. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible? ” He then rushed out of the house, leaving the Bible. Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements(安排), he received a phone telling him his father had passed away. He had to e home immediately and take care of the things that his father left him. When he began to search through his fathers important papers, he saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. He opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key with a tag(标牌) dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words “PAID IN FULL”. Sadness and regret filled his heart. 6.

A. came to know the truth at lastB. had to pay for the car himselfC. became interested in the BibleD. got angry with his father againCI spent three months volunteering with Volunteer Bolivia. It was at times annoying，scary and difficult，but also life-changing，satisfying and amazing. Because I had studied Spanish for a couple of years before I went out，I had just one week of classes at Volunteer Bolivia.Living with a family also helped my Spanish greatly and I felt immediately like one of their daughters. They were good friends from the beginning of my time there and I was looked after very well. I still had a lot of independence. The Volunteer Bolivia centre，with its caf bar and cultural talks，was a meeting place for all the volunteers and I met some wonderful people from all over the world who were doing the same as megiving something of themselves to a country which needs so much.My placement was in a caring centre for prisoners children from the Cochabamba prisons and from the very start I felt weled and needed. There I met some inspiring members who put so much of their heart into caring for those children who maybe had no one else to love them. The work itself was not only very hard but at times emotionally demanding，especially sending a group of two-year-olds back into the prison at the end of the day. Despite all this，I learnt a lot through the experience and now Im more aware of the problems faced daily by many people in South America. The centre has very limited funding so they rely heavily on the work of volunteers，and any time people give is very valuable to them. Since returning to Britain I have kept in touch with the people I worked with and Im trying to support them as much as possible. Volunteering through Volunteer Bolivia has changed my life and is an experience I will never forget.11We can infer that the official language of Bolivia is most probably_.AEnglish BSpanishCFrench DItalian12Where did the author stay when she was in Bolivia?AIn a hotel.

BRelaxing.CDisappointing. DBoring.15What can we learn from the passage?AAll people in Bolivia need the volunteers help.BThere is the worlds largest number of prisoners in Bolivia.CThe author was a college student when she went to Bolivia.DThe authors experience in Bolivia had a great effect on her.DEven if you are naturally shy, these three tricks will help you to quickly build a new social circle in any new city.1. Take pictures One of the great things about taking pictures at an event or party is that it gives you an excuse to get in touch with the person later. Everybody loves seeing pictures of themselves, and its very easy after taking a picture to say “If youd like, I can email it to you”. This can be the seed that leads to new connections. The next time you hear about a fun event, email your new contacts to let them know about it.2. Eat alone in public You might feel unfortable eating by yourself but it has an important benefit: you are much easier to approach when you are alone. People may be afraid of interrupting you or being rude if you are in a conversation with someone else. Bring a book or newspaper to read (this will make you feel less unfortable). Plus, having an interesting book with you will give others an excuse to start a conversation if theyve read it.3. Join a class, sports team, or club Yoga, dancing, volleyball, Toastmasters (a public speaking club), a class for work, etc. Take up a new hobby or continue an old one! These are all great places to meet new people, mainly because you will be forced to see the same people over and over again in the class. You will automatically make friends with them if you have a mon interest and are forced to see each other again.Tips:* In the beginning, never turn down an invitation from someone, even if its something you wouldnt normally do.* Email your new friends with fun things to do instead of always asking what their plans are. If they have a better plan, you can drop yours and join them. This will help you bee a person who is contributing value instead of just taking it (people want this in a friend).* Dont let little things in life upset you or be a negative person. People dont want to be around someone like that! 16. _ can give you an excuse to start new connections.A. Eating by yourself in public B.Taking pictures of othersC. Reading interesting books D. Joining group activities17. When having meals, youd better _ if you want to make new friends.A. sit on your own in public places B. start a conversation with those who have friends asideC. invite others to your apartment to eat together D. approach others to show friendliness18. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an advantage of joining a class?A. It is a good way to meet new people and make friends in a new city.B. It helps you find out people who share a mon interest with you.C. It offers an opportunity to meet the same people repeatedly.D. It helps you find out your interest and take up a new hobby.19. Which is the tip taken from the passage?A. Always ask for plans from your friends. B. Dont give a negative response to any request.C. Never turn down an invitation from your new friends. D. Try to be outgoing and talkative instead of being shy.20. By writing the text, the author intends to tell us _.A. why you should change when you move to a new cityB. why you should make new friends in a new cityC. how you can make new friends in a new cityD. how you can keep in touch with strangers第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节；满分35分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）One young academically excellent person went to apply for a managerial position in a big pany.
