‎ 安阳市第三十六中学2017——2018学年第一学期期中考试 高二英语 ‎(考试时间100分钟，满分120分)‎ 第I卷 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）‎ ‎(共15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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(铺砌)a road can lead to less usable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.‎ Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺). Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.‎ Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too. In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but there’s a lot we can do to lower the number.‎ You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher(洗碗机)only when it is full. Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.‎ ‎21. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?‎ ‎ A. Using river water B. Paving parking lots ‎ C. Throwing batteries away D. Throwing rubbish into lakes ‎22. What can be inferred from the text?‎ ‎ A. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.‎ ‎ B. All water shortages are due to human behavior.‎ ‎ C. There is much we can do to reduce family size.‎ ‎ D. The average family in America makes proper use of water.‎ ‎23. The last paragraph is intended to____________.‎ ‎ A. show us how to fix leaks at home B. tell us how to run a dishwasher ‎ C. suggest what we do to save water at home D. prove what drinking glass is best for us ‎24. The text is mainly about_________.‎ ‎ A. why paving roads reduces our water B. how human activity affects our water supply ‎ C. why droughts occur more in dry climates D. how much we depend on water to live B Dear Michelle,‎ My mother is not a good example for me and my sister. She smokes, stays out late, and she curses. (咒骂)‎ I love her but I am ashamed of her. I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal, but it will be 5 years before I am 18. What am I supposed to do until then?‎ Prisoner of a Crazy House Dear 7th Grader, ‎ I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feelings about her may change as you get older and mature. While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner, not a loser. ‎ I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing. So, keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits. At the same time, try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes. ‎ ‎ Fortunately, you are not alone. Many teens live in homes with immature, misguided, selfish parents. But they develop good friendships with nice kids, do well in school, and often find a teacher or guidance advisor who makes all the difference! ‎ ‎ Do it, Miss Winning 13 years old, and keep looking forward to your own future. Maybe by then your mother may even see the light and realize how good you really are. ‎ ‎ Michelle ‎25.

Why does this happen? Should the parents take any measures?‎ On the one hand, people who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers, may snack more, and that may affect their long-term diet quality.‎ On the other hand, TV ads for fast food, sweets and snacks tempt teenagers to eat more of those foods. And TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.‎ Lead researcher Dr. Dahcia J. Barr-Anderson, of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, told Reuters Health a clear correlation between TV time during high school and diet quality in young adulthood. While the heaviest TV viewers were eating the most junk food, those who’d watched less than two hours per day had the highest intake(吸收)of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and high-calcium food. In her opinion, parents should limit and monitor TV viewing.‎ As far as I am concerned, children should watch no more than two hour of television per day. And parents should set a good example by eating right, being physically active and curbing their own TV time.‎ ‎32. What’s the best title for this passage?‎ ‎ A. Parents’ own habits may affect children later.‎ ‎ B. Teenagers’ TV time may affect their diets later.‎ ‎ C. Why do teenagers like TV.‎ ‎ D. People should keep away from TV to keep healthy. ‎ ‎33. According to the passage, heavy TV viewers tent to___________.‎ ‎ A. eat more fruits B. take in fewer vegetables ‎ ‎ C. eat less junk food D. take in high-calcium food ‎34. What suggestion does the author give the parents?‎ ‎ A. They must watch TV with their children.‎ ‎ B. They should forbid the children to watch TV.‎ ‎ C. They should pay attention to nutrition in diets.‎ ‎ D. They can’t do what they don’t want their children to do.‎ ‎35. The underlined word “curbing” in the last paragraph can be replaced by ‎ A. adding B. checking C. controlling D. stopping 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。‎ It can be difficult to meet new people and make friends, especially when you move to a new city or find yourself out of your comfort zone.
