2019年高中英語(yǔ) 單元綜合檢測(cè)2 外研版選修8第一部分閱讀理解(共兩節(jié)，滿分40分)第一節(jié)(共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分)閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。ACharles Dickens novels may not now sell in the huge numbers they once did，but they are still a potent(有力的)force.They continue to draw readers and are also enjoyed in versions adapted(改編)for film，stage and television.They do not remain popular，in my view，because of“historical interest”Readers do not go to them to learn about the nineteenth century Englandits poverty and wealth，oftenterrible schools，its injustice.Dickens made his stories，created his characters，out of that world but they still demand a hearing today because they have a universal appeal and continued relevance (關(guān)聯(lián)性)The problems of poverty and injustice have not gone away，so when readers take up Dickens books they see and feel parallels(相似的)between Dickens England 150 years ago and their own societies today.Take as an example one of Dickens greatest books，Great Expectations.This novel of 18601861 tells the story of“Pip”Pirrip，an orphan(孤兒)who lives with his bullying (欺凌弱小的)sister and her husband，Mrs.and Mr.Joe Gargery.Joe is a blacksmith (鐵匠)and Pip works with him as his apprentice(學(xué)徒)But Pip is taken away from this simple working class world.Through association with the wealthy，strange Miss Haversham，he is taught to look down on himself and his family.When he is later funded(資助)to leave this life and trained in London to be a“gentleman”，the friendship he enjoyed with Joe will never be the same again.This dark novel continues to appeal to readers because there are possibly millions of Pips in the world.The experience of being driven from your background，the experience of having your loved ones drift apart (疏遠(yuǎn))from you and even look down on you because they must“get on in the world”has not gone away.Of course novels are not just made of themes.Dickens novels continue to strike a powerful chord (撥動(dòng)心弦)for his wonderful way with language，his intense (強(qiáng)烈的)characterization (人物塑造)and his ability to create atmosphere.But these skills were used with a sense of purposeintense moral purpose.Dickens wanted to hold a mirror up to the world to show people what it looked like.It is a testament to his talent and integrity that so many are still prepared to look into that mirror，despite the often painful character of what they see there.1According to the article，Dickens novels are still popular today because_.Athey clearly picture the life of the nineteenth century EnglandBthey mainly deal with the problems of poverty and injusticeCthey talk about problems that are universal even todayDthey have been adapted for film，stage and television答案：C推理判斷題 。第一段第一句提出狄更斯作品仍受歡迎，第二段第三句中的“.they have a universal appeal.”，第四句中點(diǎn)出古今通用皆準(zhǔn)的小說(shuō)的吸引力為：現(xiàn)在人們?nèi)阅芸吹讲⒛芨杏X(jué)到的相似性。2We can infer from the article that Pip，the character in Great Expectations，_.Abees a blacksmith in the endBis taught by a wealthy woman called Mrs.HavershamCused to have kind feelings towards his sister and brotherinlawDis looked down upon by his family答案：C推理判斷題。第四段中的尾句“.the friendship he enjoyed with Joe will never be the same again”說(shuō)明他在過(guò)去曾與姐姐及姐夫有過(guò)一段純真友好的親情。3Which of the following statements most accurately represents the authors point of view?ADickens is most famous for creating painful characters.BDickens used his novels to reflect life in his time.CDickens novels often depict historical events.DDickens talent lies mostly in his language，characterization and his ability to create atmosphere.答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)尾段的倒數(shù)第二句。4What is the main point of the article?ATo introduce Great Expectations，Charles Dickens masterpiece.BThe main themes of Charles Dickens novels.CWhat makes Charles Dickens a great novelist.DThe reason for the lasting popularity of Dickens novels.答案：D主旨大意題。第一段為論點(diǎn)說(shuō)明狄更斯作品仍受歡迎，第二段講述狄更斯作品受歡迎的原因，第三、四段以遠(yuǎn)大前程為例來(lái)進(jìn)一步講原因，第五段進(jìn)一步闡明作品現(xiàn)仍流行的原因：現(xiàn)在仍有小說(shuō)中人物的同感或經(jīng)歷，最后一段點(diǎn)明并強(qiáng)調(diào)狄更斯作品受歡迎的原因，所以整篇文章是講述狄更斯的小說(shuō)現(xiàn)在仍流行的原因。BWhile small may be beautiful，tall is just plain unfortable it seems，particularly when it es to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB)，which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall，has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants.Beds that are too small，shower heads that are too low，and restaurant tables with hardly any legroom all make life difficult for those of above average height，it says.But it is not just the extratall whose needs are not being met.The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds，doorways，and chairs has remained unchanged.“The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it，so even a kingsize bed at 66 (6 feet and 6 inches)is falling short for 25% of men，while the standard 63 bed caters for less than half of the male population，”said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy，“Sevenfoot beds would work fine.”Similarly，restaurant tables can cause no end of problems.Small tables，which mean the longlegged have to sit a foot or so away from them，are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.Some have already taken note，however.At Queens Moat Houses Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh,66 beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors，particularly Americans.東西小了雖好，但也有缺點(diǎn)。一個(gè)專門為高個(gè)子了提供幫助的組織TPCGB把目光瞄準(zhǔn)了賓館和飯店中的小床和小餐桌，希望為高個(gè)子解決“小”所帶來(lái)的生活不便的問(wèn)題。5What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?ATo provide better services.BTo rebuild hotels and restaurants.CTo draw public attention to the needs of the tall.DTo attract more people to bee its members.答案：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句中的to campaign for the needs of the tall可知，TPCGB這個(gè)組織發(fā)起這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)的目的是為了讓公眾更多地關(guān)注高個(gè)子的生活難題，以期能夠滿足這些高個(gè)子的生活之需。6Which the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heinricy?A72.B7C66 D63答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句Sevenfoot beds would work fine可知，在他看來(lái)，7英尺是很合適的一個(gè)長(zhǎng)度。7What may happen to restaurants with small tables?AThey may lose some customers.BThey may start businesses elsewhere.CThey have to find easy chairs to match the tables.DThey have to provide enough space for the longlegged.答案：A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段最后一句中的are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere可知，小桌子會(huì)讓這些餐館流失很多的顧客。8What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?ATall people pay more for larger beds.B66beds have taken the place of 63 beds.CSpecial rooms are kept for Americans.DGuest rooms are standardized.答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一句可知，由于高個(gè)子顧客的要求，6英尺6英寸的床已經(jīng)成為愛(ài)丁堡的這個(gè)賓館中的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)床了。也就是說(shuō)，這種床取代了原先短小的6英尺3英寸的床。CMark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new puter enviously.Jason was determined not to go against their fathers wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother.He loved experimenting and his aim was to bee a scientist like his father.“Dad will be really mad if he finds out youve been playing with his new puter.”Jason said，“He told us not to touch it.”“He wont find out，”Mark said，“Ill just have a quick look and shut it down.”Mark had been scolded before for touching his fathers equipment.But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new puter really puzzled him.It was a strangelooking machineone his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked，“Its an experimental model，”his father had explained，“so dont touch it under any circumstances.”But his fathers warning only served to make Mark more curious.Without any further thought，Mark turned on the power switch.The puter burst into life and seconds later，the screen turned into colors，shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the centre of the screen：“SPACE TRANSPORTER.”“Yes！”Mark cried excitedly，“Its a puter game.I knew it！Dads only been pretending to work.Hes really been playing games instead.”A new message appeared on the screen：“ENTER NAMESVOYAGER 1：.VOYAGER 2：.”Marks fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.“INPUT ACCEPTED.START TRANSPORT PROGRAM.AUTORETRIEVE INITIATED (自動(dòng)回收程序已啟動(dòng))”The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.“I think wed better shut it off，Mark，”Jason yelled，reaching for the power switch.He was really frightened.But his hand never reached the switch.A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the puter screen，wrapping the boys in its glow(光芒)，until they themselves seemed to be glowing.Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life.And the boys were no longer there.On the screen，the letters changed.“TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL.DESTINATION (目的地): MARS. RETRIEVE DATE：2025.”本文講的是一個(gè)科幻故事，兩個(gè)小孩通過(guò)電腦里的一個(gè)程序意外穿越到了另外一個(gè)星球火星。9Why did Mark touch the puter against his fathers warning?AHe wanted to take a voyage.BHe wanted to practice his skill.CHe was so much attracted by it.DHe was eager to do an experiment.答案：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“Mark had been scolded before for touching his fathers euqipment.But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new puter really puzzled him.”可知，Mark被他父親的電腦深深地吸引住了。10Where did the boys father most likely work?AIn an electronic factory.BIn a puter pany.CIn a scientific research center.DIn an information processing center.答案：C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的“bee a scientist like his father”和第五段聽(tīng)“from the laboratory where he worked”及下文發(fā)生的情況可知，他父親最有可能在科研中心工作。11Mark thought“SPACE TRANSPORTER”on the screen was the name of _.Aa puter gameBa pany websiteCa software producer Dan astronomy program答案：A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第六段的“ Its a puter game，”可知，Mark認(rèn)為它是一個(gè)電腦游戲的名字。12. What happened to the boys at the end of the story?AThey were blown into the air.BThey were sent to another planet.CThey were hidden in the strong light.DThey were carried away to another country.答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從最后一段的“DESTINATION(目的地)：MARS.RETRIEVE DATE：2025.”可知，這兩個(gè)孩子被送到了另外一個(gè)星球火星。DThat year，in the local school，there was a new math teacher，as well as some new pupils.One of the new kids was the stupidest child anyone had ever seen.It made no difference how quickly or how slowly they tried explaining numbers to him；he would always end up saying something enormously stupid.Like two plus two was five，seven times three was twentyseven，or a triangle had thirty corners.Before this boy arrived，math lessons had been the most boring of all.Now they were great fun.Encouraged by the new teacher, the children would listen to the pieces of nonsense spouted by the new kid，and they would have to correct his mistakes.Whenever the new teacher asked questions，the stupid kid would stand up but made the wrong answers，the other students all wanted to be the first to find his mistakes，and then think up the most original ways to explain them.To do this they used all kinds of stuff：sweets，playing cards，oranges，paper planes etc.It didnt seem like any of this bothered the new kid.However，little Lewis was sure that it was bound to make him feel sad inside.Lewis was sure he would see him crying.So，one day，he decided to follow the new kid home after school.On leaving school，the new kid walked a few minutes to a local park，and there he waited for a while，until someone came along to meet him.It was the new teacher!The teacher gave the new kid a hug，and off they went，hand in hand.Following from a distance，Lewis could hear they were talking about math.本文講述一個(gè)新的數(shù)學(xué)老師發(fā)揮創(chuàng)意，安排一個(gè)“老是犯錯(cuò)”的笨學(xué)生來(lái)回答問(wèn)題，以吸引和啟發(fā)學(xué)生找尋正確答案，使本來(lái)枯燥的課堂變得生動(dòng)有趣。13The math lessons became interesting again because of the new teachers_.Acreativity BimaginationCresponsibility Dcuriosity答案：A推理判斷題。根據(jù)對(duì)全文的理解可知，這個(gè)新老師故意安排一個(gè)“笨學(xué)生”答錯(cuò)問(wèn)題，以鼓勵(lì)別的學(xué)生找出他的錯(cuò)誤并修正錯(cuò)誤，使數(shù)學(xué)課堂氣氛變得更加活躍。14The passage implies that the stupidest child_.Awas in great need of math teachers help after classBknew much more about math than other classmatesChad no much gift for math and was slow to learn itDdisliked both the new math teacher and his lessons答案：B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后一句說(shuō)到：“Lewis could hear they were talking about math”可判斷，這個(gè)“笨小孩”比他的同學(xué)更懂?dāng)?shù)學(xué)，故選B項(xiàng)。15What does the underlined word“ this”in the third paragraph refer to?ATo find the stupidest kids mistakes.BTo think up the most original ways to explain.CTo use all kinds of stuff.DTo follow him home after school.答案：C代詞指代題。根據(jù)對(duì)上文內(nèi)容的理解可知，這里的代詞this是指前面提到的使用糖果、紙牌、紙飛機(jī)等物品，所以C項(xiàng)符合題意。第二節(jié)(共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從對(duì)話后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations.They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago._16_The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly.Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses._17_So they are called“diseases of civilization”Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco，probably none._18_However，a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat，which had much less fat than domestic ones.They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits.They did not have milk or any other dairy products，and they made very little use of grains._19_We eat six times more salt than our ancestors.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein(蛋白質(zhì))and much less vitamin C._20_But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did，cutting the amount of fatty，salty and sweet food.AStone Age people lived a simple life.BBut today，we enjoy eating a lot of these.CIn that case，they would live much healthier.DAncient people also got lots of physical exercise.EThese new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.FPeople today probably dont want to live like our ancestors.GModern people used to suffer from“diseases of civilization”答案：1620CEDBF第二部分英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用(共兩節(jié)，滿分45分)第一節(jié)完形填空(共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分)閱讀下面的短文，從短文后各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。If I had a rose for every time I
