河北省邯郸市永年区第二中学2023-2024学年高二上学期12月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解2023 Hot List: The Best New Restaurants in the World Place des Fetes — New York CityThis famous wine bar provides a spot with a rare sweet and warm atmosphere. For date night, go to the bar with views of the open kitchen, or fill up the large table in the back with a group and taste the entire item menu. Either way, do not miss the famous mushroom soup.Le Doyenne — Saint — Vrain, FranceAustralian chefs James Henry and Shaun Kelly transformed the former stables (马厩) of a 19th-century private estate into a working farm, restaurant, and guesthouse driven by the principles of regenerative agriculture. More than one hundred varieties of fruits, vegetables, and herbs make their way into Henry’s cooking after being carefully nurtured by Kelly.Mi Compa Chava — Mexico CityAlmost everyone eating here is devoted to fixing last night’s damage from drunkenness and getting a head start on creating today’s. On the sidewalk, crowds of locals and tourists alike line up for fisherman Salvador Orozco’s creative takes on Sinaloa and Baja seafood. Anything from the raw half of the menu is a sure bet, though cooked dishes like fish can help fill out a meal.Vilas — BangkokCan a dish inspired by a Spanish recipe using Japanese ingredients (原料) still be considered Thai? For Chef Prin Polsuk, one of Bangkok’s most famous Thai chefs, it most certainly can. At his latest restaurant, a small dining room at the base of Bangkok’s hulalongkorn’s 1897 journey around Europe and the foreign ingredients and landmark King Power Mahanakhon Tower, he draws inspiration from King Chulalongkorn’s 1897 journey around Europe and the foreign ingredients and cooking techniques he added to the royal cookbooks.1.What can you do in Place des Fetes — New York City ?A.Drink the red wine.B.Taste the mushroom soup.C.Watch the musicals.D.Enjoy the beautiful views.2.Which restaurant best suits people who suffer from alcohol?A.Place des Fetes.B.Le Doyenne.C.Mi Compa Chava.D.Vilas.3.What’s the purpose of the text?A.To introduce the features of some restaurants.B.To compare the origins of some restaurants.C.To state the similarities of some restaurants.D.To recommend some foods of some restaurants.A man sat at a metro station in Washington D.C.and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.Three minutes went by, and a middle-aged man noticed there was musician playing. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him. They stopped for a few seconds, and then hurried up to meet their schedule.The one who paid the most attention was a 3-year-old boy. His mother followed him along, hurried, but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally, the mother pushed hard, and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time. This was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on.In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money, but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded(鼓掌), nor was there any recognition.No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the most talented musicians in the world. He had just played one of the most beautiful pieces ever written, on a violin worth 3.5 million dollars.Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theatre in Boston where the seats averaged $100.This is a real story. Joshua Bell’s playing in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment.One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best musicever written, how many other things are we missing?4.Why did few people stop to listen to Joshua Bell playing?A.People were in a hurry.B.They were not interested in music.C.It was too cold in the subway.D.The performance was not good enough.5.What did the parents do when children stopped to look at the violinist?A.They would applaud for the performance.B.They would urge them to continue walking.C.They would stop to enjoy the music.D.They would give him some money.6.Why did Joshua Bell play in the metro station?A.To make more money.B.To practise his skills in playing music.C.To made an advertisement for his concert.D.To find out people’s reaction under such a circumstance.7.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To tell us the importance of music.B.To show us how to play music.C.To set us to think about our life.D.To report a subway performance.Coral reefs in Florida have lost an estimated 90% of their corals in the last 40 years. This summer, a marine heat wave hit Florida’s coral reefs. The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化).A coral is an animal, which has a symbiotic relationship with a microscopic algae (藻类). The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. Coral bleaching is when the symbiotic relationship breaks down. Without the algae, the corals appear white because the rock skeleton becomes visible. If the bleaching continues for an extended period, the corals can starve to death without the energy.Florida is on the front lines of climate change. It is also on the cutting edge of restoration science. Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future.There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. In addition, researchers recorded coral spawning. Although it’s not clear yet whether the larvae (幼虫) will be successful in the wild, it’s a sign of recovery potential. If the baby corals survive, they will be able to regrow the reef. They just have to avoid one big boss: human-induced climate change.8.What does the underlined word “symbiotic” in paragraph 2 mean?A.Reliable.B.Opposite.C.Harmonious.D.Contradictory. 9.What caused the coral bleaching?A.The rock skeleton.B.The microscopic algae.C.The high temperatures.D.The symbiotic relationship. 10.Which is not the efforts scientists made to help coral reefs?A.Transferring coral nurseries.B.Growing and planting coral spawn.C.Researching the DNA of the coral.D.Figuring out the reasons for problems. 11.Which of the following best describes the impact of scientists’ efforts?A.Identifiable.B.Predictable.C.Far-reaching.D.Effective.A British energy supplier has apologized for the “poorly judged and unhelpful” advice sent to customers which suggested they could snuggle(依偎) up to their pets and exercise to cut back on their heating bills.SSE,which is owned by OVO Energy, suggested 10 “simple and cost effective ways to keep warm this winter,” according to the Financial Times. Eating bowls of oatmeal, doing star jumps and cuddling(搂抱) pets were among the recommendations on the now-deleted web page.In a statement sent to CNN Tuesday, a spokesperson for OVO Energy said, “Recently a link to a blog containing energy saving tips was sent to customers. We understand howdifficuIt the situation will be for many of our customers this year.” The spokesperson added, “We are working hard to find meaningful solutions as we approach this energy crisis, and we recognize that the content of this blog was poorly judged and unhelpful. We are embarrassed and sincerely apologize.”Some British businesses and households have seen their energy bills rise in recent months, as suppliers deal with a sharp rise in wholesale gas prices. British consumers will pay roughly 790 more to heat and light their homes this year, according to Bank of America. Wholesale European gas prices have jumped by 400% over the previous year and electricity prices have increased by 300%, the bank’s analysts said last week. The increases have been driven by cold weather, nuclear plant outages in France and reduced gas flow from Russia.According to National Energy Action, more than 4 million UK households are facing fuel poverty—a figure which the charity believes could rise by 2 million in April when a cap(上限) on energy prices is expected to increase.OVO Energy removed its advice after a wave of angry responses from lawmakers and campaigners(运动参与者). Following the apology, British lawmaker Darren Jones, who chairs Parliament’s business select committee, tweeted: “Good, I’m glad they apologized. I’m not sure who signed off a marketing campaign telling people to wear a jumper and eat porridge instead of turning on the heating if you can’t afford it.”12.Why did OVO Energy apologize for its advice on the ways of keeping warm sent to customers?A.The ways are too costly.B.The ways are too simple.C.The suggestions are difficult.D.The suggestions are ineffective.13.Which is the result of the energy crisis for British?A.Energy bills rise too sharply in winter for most UK households.B.All customers can afford the increasing price of coal.C.The British government has found meaningful methods to face it.D.The energy crisis have been driven by cold weather.14.How did Darren Jones feel about the apology in the last paragraph?A.Nervous.B.Angry.C.Pleased.D.Concerned. 15.Where is this passage probably from?A.A travel brochure.B.A newspaper.C.A healthmagazine.D.A science fiction.二、七选五Protecting from aboveA deadly asteroid (小行星) heading toward the Earth is a common plot in sci-fi movies.16 An increasing number of space agencies are now taking steps to defend against near-Earth asteroids (NEAs).17Wu Yanhua, deputy director of the China National Space Administration (CNSA), recently told CCTV News that China will start to build Earth and space-based monitoring and warning systems to detect NEAs. 18 In 2025 or 2026, China hopes to be able to closely observe approaching asteroids before impacting them to change their path toward our planet.Making an impactNASA also has its own program for developing technology to deflect (使转向) incoming asteroids. On Nov 23, 2021, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) was launched to slam into Dimorphos and change the speed at which it orbits its space neighbor, Didymos, an asteroid approximately 2, 560 feet in diameter (直径). 19Global effort20 It also re-launched its Planetary Defense Office in 2021, according to Electronics Weekly. Restarting the program, which seeks to communicate with space agencies around the world, is due to “the global character of the dangers we all face due to asteroids”, said ESA Director General Josef Aschbacher.A.Plan to protect.B.Taking prompt actions.C.But most people believe this is only an imagination.D.However, this is also a risk we should be worried about in real life.E.They are aimed to classify incoming NEAs depending on the risks they pose.F.The European Space Agency (ESA) signed a deal to make a spacecraft for a joint mission with NASA.G.This will help prove out one viable (可行的) way to protect our planet from a dangerous asteroid.三、完形填空With a breathing tube in his throat, it was all Radice could do to lift his arm to signal theCovid-19(新冠肺炎).

AKnowing about yourself means not only that you find out what you are good at and what you like, it also means discovering what you are not good at and what you don’t like. Both help you to see your aim in life.Although most students would be unhappy if they found that they had failed an advanced maths course, they have actually learned a great deal about themselves. They know that they should not become engineers or physical scientists, and that they should not be good at accounting work. So failing can help a student to lead a much happier life if he or she draws the right conclusion from the failing. They may then decide on their aim and choose the kind of work theywould like to do.It is impossible to decide whether or not you like something until you have tried it. If you decide you would like to play the violin,you need to take more than one lesson before you can know whether you have any interest or ability.It is not enough to want to be a great violinist. You also have to like the hard and long training before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist but hate the work, forget it.It’s a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are still young, and then you will come to a wise decision.21. If you say you really know yourself,______.A. you know what you are good atB. you have got the whole picture of yourselfC. you keep in mind your aim in lifeD. you have le ss you don’t like than what you like22. Failing can turn into something good ______.A. if you have aim in life and get the job you wish to haveB. if you learn something from itC. if your decision is rightD. if you lead a happier life23.The example of ―playing the violin‖ in Paragraphs 3 and 4 implies that ______.A. if you don’t like music, don’t practise the violinB. it takes more than one lesson to learn to play the violinC. you can decide only after you have tried.D. you can become a great violinist only after hard and long training.24.The following are suggested by the writer except ______.A. that people usually make hasty(仓促)decisionsB. that the more experiences, the better decision you will haveC. testing ideas, comparing and then making the decisionD. that you always have enough time before you come to a wise decisionBReading is a great way to improve your English. You'll learn new words, revise previously-taught structures and absorb thousands of useful expressions and phrases... without anyeffort. By reading, you are receiving valuable language input. And this is how you learn! Remember, language learning is a combination of input + practice. As you're reading, you're taking in language naturally, and you're seeing how it all fits together. This is crucial to your learning.The great thing about reading is that learning takes place subconsciously. There are no exercises to do, no grammar rules to learn, no tasks to complete... it's all natural. The language flows in through your eyes, and gets recorded in your brain. What could be easier?The key to effective reading is to read things that you want to read. There are millions of books, magazines and websites out there. You couldn't possibly read them all. So, the important thing is to find things that you like reading. Then, you'll be motivated to read. And then the reading won't be difficult. It'll be easy! And then you'll learn. It's simple.Remember: read what you want to read. What you like reading. What motivates and inspires you. But where can you start? Well, you could read a book that you've already read in your own language. Simply find a translated version of a book that you have read and enjoyed. This will make proce ssing the content in the target language much easier as you’ll already know what the book is about! You could also read the news. This is great as you can read the news in your own language first, then in English. You'll see that it won't be too difficult as you'll be familiar with the topics and stories. Magazines are also great. Find one that covers a topic you're interested in: business, clothing, guns, horses, houses, housekeeping, stocks and shares, sports, computers, electronics, designing, cooking... you name it, they'll have it. If not, look for information on the internet. There are also websites for every topic under the sun! Why not join a forum? They're a great source of English input as the language is often written in a simple, spoken style. Go to Google Groups, which has discussion groups based on common interests. Just type in the topic that interests you and join the chat.Finally, how you read is also important. The best thing is to read without using a dictionary. Let the words flow over you. Just skip the parts you don't understand. If you make your reading feel too much like work, it'll stop being fun. Of course, you could make a note of any new words and phrases that you like or see repeated frequently, but try not to break your concentration too much. Also, set yourself mini-objectives. For example, if you're reading a novel, read 20 pages aday. Very soon, you'll have been exposed to thousands of useful phrases and words. Have fun reading! You'll learn so much!25.

Parents should also set family rules covering the use of the Internet, cellphones, including, perhaps, which sites can be visited, and who can be called. The policy also restated the existing recommendations: Kids should limit the amount of screen time for entertainment to less than two hours per day; children younger than 2 shouldn’t have any TV or Internet exposure. Also, televisions and Internet-accessible devi ces should be kept out of kids’ bedrooms.Doctors say parents need to obey the family rules, too, to model healthy behavior.

The report was based on a survey of 2002 third through twelfth graders, 702 of whom completed a seven-day media use diary. That was up about an hour and 17 minutes a day from five years earlier. About two-thirds of 8 to 18-year-olds said they had no rules on the amount of time they spent watching TV, playing video games or using the computer, the Kaiser report found.Use of mobile devices by young kids has soared.
