高二英语期中考试题
第二部分 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。
A
Are you a volcano lover? Here is a list of some of the world's most beautiful volcanoes that our travel agency can offer you to visit. Don't miss them!
Mount Mayon, the Philippines
Located about 450 km southeast of Manila on the island of Luzon, Mount Mayon is the most active volcano in the Philippines; a September 2014 eruption forced thousands to flee the area. Those who hike the volcano are rewarded with views of the towns in the Albay province and the Pacific Ocean. But even those who prefer the view from a distance have a historical good point at the Cagsawa Ruins, once an 18th Century Franciscan church that was destroyed by an 1814 eruption.
Kilauea and Marina Kea, Hawaii
Hawaii's volcanoes are known for their active eruptions and extraordinary scenes. Mauna Kea is around one million years old, while Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and has been erupting continuously since 1983. The lava falls straight into the sea, creating fantastic forms of black rocks and smoke clouds.
Mount Kelimutu, Indonesia
Kelimutu's three mysterious crater lakes attract both scientists and tourists to the island of Flores in Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province. One is emerald green (翡翠绿), another dark red, and the third pitch black. Scientists say the lakes take on such colors because the volcanic gases met the lakes' minerals centuries ago.
21. People who hike Mount Mayon can enjoy the following EXCEPT ______.
A. views of the towns in the Albay province
B. views of the Pacific Ocean
C. views of the Cagsawa Ruins
D. views of Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province

A. is an active volcano B. stopped erupting in 1983

A. water pollution B. different environments

Photography（摄影） has been my interest ever since I was old enough to pick up a camera, but today I want to share with you the 15 most treasured（珍贵的）photos of mine, and I didn't take any of them. In fact, most of them were taken by random（随机的）tourists.
My story begins when I was in New York City for a speech, and my wife took a picture of me holding my daughter on her first birthday. We're on the corner of 57th and 5th. We happened to be back in New York exactly a year later, so we decided to take the same picture.
Well you can see where this is going. Approaching（临近） my daughter's third birthday, my wife said, "Hey, why don't you take Sabina back to New York and make it a father-daughter trip, and continue the ceremony?" This is when we started asking passing tourists to take the picture.
So these photos are far more than representatives（代表） for a single moment, or even a specific（具体的） trip. They're also ways for us to freeze time for one week in October and reflect on（反思） our times and how we change from year to year, and not just physically, but in every way. Because while we take the same photo, our viewpoints（观点） change, and she reaches new milestones (里程碑) and I get to see life through her eyes, and how she communicates with and sees everything. This very focused time we get to spend together is something we value（重视，珍惜） and expect the entire（全部的） year.
24. What can we know about the author from the first paragraph?
A. He is fond of being photographed alone.
B. He hardly ever asks strangers to take pictures of him.
C. He has been interested in photography since childhood.
D. He's proud of the 15 most treasured photos taken by himself.
25. Who came up with the idea of having a father-daughter trip when Sabina was 3 years old?
A. Her mother. B. Her father. C. Sabina herself. D. An unknown tourist.
26. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_______.
A. children usually get to see life. through adults' eyes
B. the 15 photos are meaningful to the author's family
C. it takes the author a whole week to have a family photo taken
D. the viewpoints of the author's family never change with the time
27. What can be the best title of the text?

D. A father-daughter bond, one photo at a time

China is home to the invention of silk and has a long tradition of producing fine materials for clothing. Not all clothing in ancient or contemporary（ 当代的） China is made of silk, however. In fact, silk was only available to the wealthy classes（阶级） for much of China's history. Until the introduction of cotton during the Ming Dynasty, from the 14th to the 17th century, the poorer classes wore rough clothing made from fibers (纤维).
In ancient China, the tunic（无袖长袍）was particularly popular . Called hanfu（汉服）, both men and women could be seen wearing tunics made of different materials. Women'stunics were long and loose（宽松的）, extending all the way down to their feet and often cinched with a belt or rope to get tighter（紧）. Men's tunics were shorter, usually only extending down to their knees. During the winter, both men and women would wear cotton jackets for warmth. In the winter, men would also wear pants (裤子) or ankle-length skirts into their clothes to keep warm and protect their legs against the cold winter conditions.
Contemporary Chinese clothing is now made of many of the same materials as contemporary clothing found in other countries. Much of the traditional Chinese clothing produced now is made of cotton and silk, but generally contemporary Chinese clothing also contains synthetic (合成的) fibers in with the cotton and silk, such as nylon (尼龙). In addition, linen (亚麻布) is now commonly used in contemporary Chinese clothing, especially during the summer months because it is light and breathable.
28. In ancient China, only wealthy people could afford clothes made from______.
A. silk B. fiber C. cotton D. linen
29. Which of the following about hanfu（汉服） is mentioned in the text?
A. It was made from only one material.
B. Men's hanfu was shorter than women's.
C. People didn't wear it until the Ming Dynasty.
D. It was warm enough to help people against cold in the winter.
30. The underlined word "cinched" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to "___".
A. 悬挂 B. 插入 C. 装饰 D. 拴，绑
31. What can we know from the text?
A. Linen is only used to make Chinese summer clothing.
B. Nylon was one material for ancient Chinese clothing.
C. Lots of contemporary Chinese clothing is made from synthetic fibers.
D. The materials for contemporary Chinese clothing are produced by other countries.
D
It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming terrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but a good sense. It takes the most cool-headed (头脑冷静的) drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when they are forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behavior of politeness is by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However, misplaced（用错了地方的） politeness can also be dangerous. A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.
An experienced driver told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages( 拥堵) that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can't even learn to drive, let alone（更不用说） master the roadman ship ( 公路驾车技能). Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give and take( 互谅互让) from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
32. The passage mainly talks about______________________.
A. traffic jams B. good manners C. road politeness D. modern drivers
33. Troubles on the road are often caused by__________________.
A. traffic jams B. the behavior of the drivers
C. the great speed of modern life D. terrible road conditions
34. According to the writer, a good driver should___________________.
A. encourage children to cross the road whenever they want to
B. beat back when forced to face rude driving
C. be able to recognize road politeness when he sees it
D. join in a traffic stream quickly however other people feel
35. It is not right for drivers to_________.
A. master the roadmanship
B. join in a traffic stream
C. give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness
D. encourage old ladies to cross the road whenever and wherever they want to

When I was growing up, my dad would often give me small tasks to finish to help out around the house. Some were easy but there were three 41 . The first was helping to weed the four 42 we had.
