2019-2020年高二英语下学期期末考试试题(II)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）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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Medical students in California are getting real-world experience by helping the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. They are filling gaps in the health care system while learning about their future profession.The patients sit on folding chairs along the sidewalk in Hollywood, as students unload supplies and medical records from a truck. They are creating a makeshift(临时的) clinic on the street.The first stage is triage, assessing the needs of poor and homeless at this once-a-week mobile clinic. It is run by students from the University of California, Los Angeles, who operate similar clinics in different munities on other nights. They provide medicine and offer clean socks and reading glasses to those who need them. They bandage injuries and monitor vital signs.Another charity offers nutritious meals to the patients. Students in social work and law also e to offer assistance, getting long-term help from the government or private agencies for those people who qualify.Physician Walter Coppenrath helped start this street clinic 12 years ago when he was a medical student. He now teaches at UCLA and sees patients at a nearby medical center.“The care is given to those who do not get help in other places,” says medical student Steffanie Becerra. “They see us as their only point of care within the medical system where they can get their medications. A lot of people with hypertension or diabetes really have no other choice but to e here because they just cannot afford the medications elsewhere, she explains.The mobile clinic helps both patients and students, says undergraduate Kevin Norris, who plans to bee a doctor. “We really treat them as individuals deserving of respect because so many of the homeless people here in Los Angeles are really just looked down on and largely ignored by much of the population,” Norris states. He says that once a week these people get the attention and the care they deserve, and the voluntary work helps him understand his future role as a physician.1. The once-a-week mobile clinic can provide the patients with following articles EXCEPT _.A. clean socksB. medicineC. reading glassesD. nutritious meals2. According to the passage, we can learn that .A. the idea of creating a makeshift clinic started in 1990B. the once-a-week mobile clinic only opens in the daytimeC. most of the people receiving the service are very poorD. Walter Coppenraths occupation is only a teacher at present3. The author writes the last paragraph in order to tell us .A. everyone should be treated with equal respectB. Kevin Norris is unsatisfied with the current medical systemC. Kevin Norris is happy to help the homeless people in Los AngelesD. the experience helps both patients and students4. The best title of the passage is .A. Students Mobile Clinic Helps Homeless B. How to Run a Mobile Clinic in Los AngelesC. Volunteer Work Benefits the Old PeopleD. The Health Care System in Los Angeles BEating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露）to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风）within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物）were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好）quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest pared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also bee necessary to protect public health.5. The text mainly discusses the relationship between.A. heart problems and air qualityB. heart problems and exercisingC. heart problems and smokingD. heart problems and fatty food6. The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means .A. relatively high B. extremely lowC. relatively low D. extremely high7.
