2010-2023历年江苏省涟水中学高二下学期期中考试英语卷（带解析）第1卷一.参考题库(共20题)1.I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend. She had just moved into the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to 1 me. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, 2 to look at each other. Soon, we lost the shyness and started playing with each other. In 7th grade, I first lost 3 with her. She was 4 family problems and I deserted her. 5 of my new friends liked her 6 they knew she had “problems”.It was last year when I noticed the 7 . I guess I was just to catch up in high school to realize she8 someone there for her. I didn’t know9, but she started cutting herself! She was10 from clinical depression(抑郁), and had to go to a11 during the day. I was very upset at first but with the late night12, and meeting each other at midnight. I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend once13 her since people were calling her crazy.Yesterday she came to me and said this:“I never knew what a best friend was14 you were the only person that would15me from cutting; the only person that ever made me feel better about myself and my problems. You don’t know this but I was tryingto16 myself that night you called me. You didn’t even know you were17 me. I owe you so much.”We both cried. And I guess a kind of18 from my life is:“never give up on your friends”. Even if they aren’t as cool as others, or people think they are19, they need someone there. If you desert them, you will only be20 yourself. So if a friend needs you, and you care for them, you can never desert them.【小题1】A．callB．findC．meetD．know【小题2】A．scared B．surprised C．gladD．eager【小题3】A．communication B．friendship C．relation D．touch【小题4】A．breaking through B．going through C．seeing through D．getting through 【小题5】A．NoneB．AllC．Each D．Neither【小题6】A．even if B．howeverC．as if D．because【小题7】A．problem B．coolness C．assessment D．sadness【小题8】A．had B．wanted C．needed D．expected【小题9】B．why C．when D．where【小题10】A．dating B．suffering C．separating D．originating【小题11】A．hospital B．teacher C．friend D．school【小题12】A．comforts B．conversations C．persuasions D．calls【小题13】A．liked B．respected C．deserted D．hated【小题14】A．when B．until C．before D．after【小题15】A．protect B．support C．stop D．warn【小题16】A．control B．killD．enjoy【小题17】A．hurtingB．ignoringC．remindingD．helping【小题18】A．factB．truthC．lessonD．experience【小题19】A．unfriendlyB．coolC．strangeD．crazy【小题20】A．unhappyB．foolishC．impressiveD．anxious2.The large family is really a heavy_______ on his shoulder, so he has to work day and night.A．jobB．challengeC．loadD．weight3.---Now, children begin to learn English at a very early age.

In Greece there are the ruins of a water system for baths built over3,000 years ago. The Romans had warm public baths. In some baths, as many 3,000 persons could bathe at the same time.Treating disease by taking bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700’s has also become popular in the United States.For many years frequent(经常的) bathing was believed to be bad for one’s health. Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided, andperfumewas often used to cover up body smells!By the 1700’s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be clean. Slowly, people began to bathe more frequently. During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a bath on Saturday night became common.In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th and early 19th centuries, many Americans were known as “The Great Unwashed!” In one American city, for example, a person was only allowed to take a bathe every thirty days! That was a law!Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that bathing for cleanliness is important to health, Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases. As a result, in the United States, people generally bathe often. Some people bath once a day at least. They consider a daily bath essential (="necessary)" to good health.【小题1】 A water system for baths was built by _________ over 3,000 years ago.

He took home the top prize at the fifth annual texting event, beating 11 other competitors in the final, including last year’s cha mpion Brianna Hendrickson from Brooklyn, New York.Wiershke, who was wearing a gray shirt and having Justin Bieber’s hairstyle, sailed through each level of the competition by typing passages of text on a QWERTY keyboard rapidly without any mistaken. One special round even included being blindfolded(蒙眼) on the state to make up phrases by memory.“I’m extremely nervous,” Wiershke said while waiting for the results after the final round. “I’m getting ready to hear Brianna’s name. When I heard my name wasanno unced, I really couldn’t believe my ears.” After the announcement was made, confetti(五彩纸屑) dropped from the ceiling and Wiershke was met on the stage by the singer who said that she liked texting very much. She was Ashley Tisdale, a famous and beautiful singer, who awarded him his check.In August, a film on Music Television called “Thumbs” took a behind-the –scenes look at the teenager’s life. It shows how he practiced texting to be the fastest. The film followed a series of young texting competitors, including Brianna Hendrickson, in the weeks leading up to this year’s LG US National Texting Championship.

There are so many things to hear, and so many new instruments, like iPods and headphones, which can harm your hearing if used improperly. Keeping the volume(音量)to a reasonable level on an iPod or other portable listening instruments is one of the most important ways to protect your hearing. Another great way to keep your hearing protected is to avoid loud noises whenever possible. There are many loud noises from power tools to machinery, and it is important to avoid these noises as often as possible. When it is not possible to avoid them, keep your hearing protected by using earplugs(耳机).If you think your hearing may have already been damaged by modern technology, it is important to have your hearing tested by a physician. Only such a professional will be able to measure your level of hearing loss and help you find the best solution to your hearing problem.For those with hearing issues, the choices have never been greater. There are many excellent hearing aids on the market. Having a hearing aid can be a perfect choice for the young and the old alike, and many people who swore they would never wear a hearing aid find that they love the convenience and quality these instruments represent. Never let an unimportant thing like vanity(虚荣) get in the way of treating a hearing problem. These days there are hearing aids that are nearly invisible to the naked eye, including a number of models that fit completely inside the ear. If you believe you may be experiencing a problem with your hearing, it is important to have it checked out, and to take the right measures to protect your ears. In many cases, this treatment will be as simple as wearing earplugs. Taking care of your ears is of great importance. After all, you only get one set of ears.【小题1】The second paragraph mainly talks about_____.A．the causes of hearing lossB．the importance of hearingC．how to cure hearing problemsD．how to protect your hearing【小题2】The underlined phrase “under assault” in Paragraph 2 most probably means_____.A．under considerationB．under protectionC．under attackD．under treatment【小题3】All the following factors may cause hearing problems EXCEPT_____. A．using iPods improperlyB．listening to MP3 at full volumeC．standing near machinery making a loud noiseD．using earplugs when there are loud noises13.If you forget ______ your watch, it is likely to stop soon.A．to wind upB．to wind offC．winding upD．winding off14.China’s Tianhe-1 has a computing speed of 2,507 trillion（万亿）calculations a second, making it the fastest computer in the world. It is also 40 percent faster than the world’s second fastest supercomputer, Cray XT5 Jaguar, in the US, kept at a national laboratory in Tennessee, according to the New York Times. Jack Dongarra, a University of Tennessee computer scientist, told NYT that the Chinese supercomputer is faster than the existing Number One machine.Building the fastest supercomputer has become a source of national pride, as these machines are valued for their ability to solve problems in areas like defense, energy and science. These problems are related to national interests. Supercomputing technology is also found in business. Oil and gas companies use supercomputers to find oil and gas. Obviously, research centers with large supercomputers attract top scientific talents. This adds extra importance to the machines—they’re more than just huge computers. China’s new supercomputer will be used to speed up greatly scientific calculations, such as hurricane and tsunami modeling, cancer research, car design and even studying stars.In 2008, two US scientists put together a step-by-step guide on how to build a supercomputer using PlayStation 3 video-game consoles（控制台）. Modern supercomputers are built by combining thousands of small computerservers（服务器）and using software to turn them into one large computer. Really, any organization with enough material and technology can create a fast machine.The Chinese system follows that model by linking thousands upon thousands of computer servers. But the secret behind the system—and the technological achievement—is Chi na’s own networking technology. “That technology was built by them,” Dongarra said. “They are taking supercomputing very seriously and using a lot of time and money.”“China is still a developing country,” said Sha Chaoqun, manager at Dawning Company which is the leading supercomputer maker in China. “Maybe one day, China’s total computing power can be greater than that of the US, but there is still a long way to go before we get there.”Paragraph outlineSupporting detailsChina has developed the world’s fastestsupercomputer.◇Tianhe-1 has a high computing speed, which 【小题1】_______ it the fastest computer in the world.◇Tianhe-1 is 40 percent faster than the 【小题2】______ fastest supercomputer in the world.◇【小题3】_____ Jack Dongarra, we learn that the Chinese supercomputer is faster than the existing Number One machine.Many countries see the fastest supercomputer as a source of national【小题4】______ and are making efforts to develop it.◇The high-speed computer is 【小题5】________ to solve problems related to national interests.◇Besides 【小题6】______, supercomputing technology can also be found in areas of defense, energy and science.◇It’s obvious that top scientific talents are 【小题7】______ to research centers with large supercomputers.The secret behind supercomputers is networking technology.◇By using the technology built by Chinese people, taking it 【小题8】_______ and devoting lots of time and money, China has achieved a lot.Mr. Sha showed a conservative（保守的）【小题9】_______ toward the development ofcomputing power.◇【小题10】_________ the greater computing power China may have in the future, there is still a long way to go.15._______ caused the accident is still a complete mystery.A．WhatB．ThatC．HowD．Where16.Whitney Houston’s sudden death suggests that drug abuse is such a serious problem ___we should deal with properly.A．asB．thatC．whichD．where17.---Anna, you look so tired and wet all over!---Well, you know, all morning I _______ my books to my new office on the third floor.A．am movingB．have movedC．had movedD．have been moving18.目前，许多学校存在部分学生抄袭作业现象。
