大石桥二高中20162017 学年度上学期9月月考高二英语试卷时间 100分钟 满分120分*1.25=150分第一部分 听力 （省略）第二部分 阅读理解 （ 共两节，满分40分）第一节 （ 共15小题，每题2分 ，满分 30分） 阅读下列短文， 从每题所给的四个选项中， 选出最佳选项。 ATo most of us，school means classes，teachers，schedules，grades，and tests .But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts，school is very different.Firstly，there are no lessons. All the children，aged between 4 and 19，do whatever they want. There are no teachersonly “staff members”The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn，because children want to learn anyway. “You do not need to say to a three year old，“Go explore your environment. You cant stop them！” says Daniel Greenberg，a founder of the school.“ But if you make children do what you want all day，they will lose all taste for learning.”At Sudbury Valley School，you will permit children to talk，read，paint，cook，work on computers，study French，play the piano，climb trees or just run around. Two boys spent three years just fishing!The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules. Every week，there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote eacheven the four year olds. They decide the school rules，how to spend the school budget，and even which staff they want and do not want any more.When the school first opened in 1968，people said it would never work. But today，the school has 200 students，and 80% of its students go on to college. Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today. One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.21What is the main topic of the article?AAn unusual school. BChildrens hobbies.CA school without rules. DEducation in the US.22What does the school believe?ATeachers cannot teach children well.B. Children learn best when they do what they want to do.C Learning is for adultschildren should only play.D Children should only learn about one thing at a time.23What does Daniel Greenberg say about three year olds ?A. They love learning.B They are very naughty.C They want to be outside all the time.D They are too young to learn anything.24Who has the most power in the school meetings?AThe older children have more power than the younger children.BA child has more power than an adult.CThe younger children have more power than the older children.DEverybody has equal power. BIts not easy being a teenager nor is it easy being the parent of a teenagerYou can make your child feel angry, hurt or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourselfIt is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that youll still be there for him when he needs you Expect a lot from your child，just not everythingExcept for health and safety problems，such as drug use or careless driving，consider everything else open to discussionIf your child is unwilling to discuss something，dont insist he tell you whats on his mindThe more you insist，the more likely that hell clam upInstead，let him try to solve things by himself. At the same time，remind him that youre always there for him if he seeks advice or helpShow respect for your teenagers privacy(隐私)Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the familys telephone for too long，tell him he can talk for l5 minutes，but then he must stay off the phone for at least all equal period of timeThis not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls，but teaches your teenager moderation(节制).Or if you are open to the idea，allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job25The main purpose of the text is to tell parents Ahow to get along with a teenager Bhow to respect a teenagerChow to help a teenager grow up Dhow to understand a teenager26What does the phrase clam up in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. become excited B. show respectC. refuse to talk D. seek help27The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenager _.A. to use the phone in a proper way B. to pay for his own telephoneC. to share the phone with friends D. to answer the phone quickly28What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?A.

C Today，people all over the world are moving out of small villages in the country to go and live in big，noisy cities. They are moving from the peaceful hills，mountains，fields，rivers and streams of the countryside to the busy world of streets，buildings，traffic and crowds. This movement from rural areas to urban areas has been going on for over two hundred years.In many countries，the main reason why people come to live in towns and cities is work. After one or two large factories have been built in or near a town，people come to find work，and soon an industrial area begins to grow. There is usually a residential area nearby，where the factory workers can live. The families of these workers need schools，hospitals and shops，so more people come to live in the area to provide these services and a city grows.In every major city in the world，there is a business district where the big companies have their main offices. In the United States，this area is usually in the city centre. It is here that you can see the huge skyscraper office blocks. The people who work here often travel a long way to work each day. Many of them live in the suburbs of the city，far away from the industrial area and the city centre. Some suburbs are very pleasant，with nice houses and big gardens. There are usually parks for children to play in and large department stores where you can buy all you need.But what is the future of the big cities? Will they continue to get bigger? Perhaps not. Some major cities have actually become smaller in the last ten years，and it is quite possible that one day we will see people moving out of the major cities and back into smaller towns and villages.29We can easily know that the underlined phrase “urban areas” means_. Aareas of the countrysideBareas of a town or cityCareas near the countrysideDareas near a town or city30Why do people move to live in cities or towns?ABecause they can live more comfortably there.BBecause they prefer a noisy life to a peaceful life.CBecause they want to find work.DBecause they are sure of having a better life there.31In a residential area，you can see_.Arows of houses，schools and shopsBmany offices and factoriesCa lot of factories and farmsDmany houses with offices and factories32In the United States many people work in the centre of a big city_.Awhile living on the faraway edge of the cityBand live there Cbut live in another cityDbut live in the suburbs of the city. D How words came into being is unknown. All we assume（推测）is that some early men invented certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be put together to show those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, are called words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary style（文体）. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly, or they will make our speech silly and common.33We learn from the text that language might have begun with _. A. actions B. expressions C. sounds D. signs34What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?A. The relation of human experience with words.B. The gradual change and development of words.C. The learning of new words.D. The importance of old words.35In the last paragraph, what does the author suggest that we should do?A. Associate with listeners. B. Make musical speeches.C. Learn poems by heart. D. Use words skillfully.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分， 满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。- Hello, Gerry speaking. -Hello, Gerry. Its me, John here.
