1、2021-2022學(xué)年黑龍江省綏化安達(dá)市高一上學(xué)期11月月考英語試卷一、閱讀理解1. The idea of getting a tattoo(紋身)copy popped into Prue's head when he noticed that his 8-year-old son refused to take his shirt off in the swimming pool. Prue realized that his son was starting to be aware of his birthmark, which covers a huge part of hi
2、s chest.Prue secretly went to a tattoo shop. The tattoo he wanted had to be identical to his son's birthmark, so they had to do it in nine sessions. "The first sitting was close to four hours. And I didn't really look to see what was going on J said Prue. “'So I thought at the end o
3、f four hours it was done. So I asked, "Is it almost done?' and he said, Tm almost done the outline.It has been a bit of a process for Prue as well as painful experience. Because of the size and the position of the birthmark he was trying to copy, he had to suffer a lot of pain. Tony Gibert,
4、 the tattoo artist, said that the area has very sensitive nerve endings which gave Prue so much discomfort and undesirable sensations. Pain hours added up to nearly thirty hours in total.In a video where the son saw his dad's tattoo, he can be heard saying, “that's cool." This time, wit
5、hout any hesitation, he took off his shirt and jumped in the swimming pool. Apparently, his dad's action changed his perspectives, which made him feel confident again. As expected, his son was so happy to see it but also a little confused, not expecting his dad would do it.Despite all the pain a
6、nd long hours of waiting, Prue never felt discouraged. What mattered to him was to make his son happy and help bring back his self-confidence.1 .Where was Prue9s tattoo?A.On the face.B.On the neck.D.On the leg.C.On the chest.2 .How long did Prue take on the tattoo in all?A.Four hours.B.Twelve hours.
7、D.Thirty hours.C.Twenty hours.How did the son feel on seeing the tattoo?A.PainfuLB.Delighted.C.Sensitive.D.Discouraged.2. A new survey method is invented to count wild species. African elephants are the first animals to be successfully counted from space while moving through a complicated landscape
8、that range from open grasses to forests.Typically, conservationists do this from low-flying planes in order to count and monitor African elephants, a method that takes many hours. With the new technique that combines satellite imagery with artificial intelligence, up to 3,100 square miles can be sur
9、veyed on a single blue-sky day in minutes. Then, the deep-learning computer analyzes those images and pick out individual elephants.The new technique is a key part of ensuring the survival of the endangered species. Due to illegal hunting and habitat destruction, just 415,000 African elephants are l
10、iving in the wild. "Accurate monitoring is essential if we're to save the species,“ said Olga Isupova, a computer scientist at the University of Bath in theUK. “We need to know where the animals are and how many there are.”What really makes this study stand apart from other satellite-tracki
11、ng projects is how successful the computer program is at picking out the elephants from their complex backgrounds, including grasslands and partially tree-covered landscapes. Satellite imagery is also a much more efficient survey method than the current flyover surveys carried out, which is faster a
12、nd avoids double-counting the same elephants. The remote survey also reduces the impact researchers have on the animals and allows them to count individuals moving between countries."Although this is a proof of concept, it's ready to go J said professor Duporge, a zoologist at the Oxford Un
13、iversity. "And conservation organizations are already interested in using this to replace surveys using aircraft. As satellite imaging improves, other smaller species may soon be able to be counted in greater detail from space too.”.What are used in the new study method?A.AI and surveys.B.Satel
14、lites and aircraft.C.Planes and computers.D.Satellites and computers.1 . What leads to the reduction of wild elephants?A.Climate change.B.Human activities.C.Environment threat.D.Social improvement.2 .What is the advantage of the new method comparing to the old?A.Less money.B.More accurate.C.Less wor
15、kers.D.More complex.3 .What is Duporge's attitude towards the new method?A.Worried.B.Objective.C.Doubtful.D.Optimistic.3. The green movement is catching on in many pockets of the world. This is especially true in the construction industry. Today's buzz words, which include global warming and
16、 zero emissions(排放),are causing everyday people to look for ways to reduce their carbon footprint. Purchasing an environmentally-friendly home is a good investment for those who care about their own health and the well-being of our planet. Based on this trend, entire districts, known as eco-communit
17、ies, are being designed with the concept of green in mind. One of these communities is Dockside Green in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Its goal is to become the world's first zero-emission neighborhood.Dockside Green is a mostly self-sufficient community along the harbor front of Vi
18、ctoria, the capital city of British Columbia. The community is home to around 2,500 people and it includes a variety of environmental features, some of which can't be found anywhere else.The planners and builders of Dockside Green have the environment in mind with every choice they make. They en
19、sure proper ventilation(通由I) and guarantee residents clean air indoors. Building materials, such as paints and wood, are natural and green.Energy efficiency is attached great importance to in eco-communities like Dockside Green. Not only do energy-efficient appliances reduce the environmental impact
20、 of heating, cooking and lighting, they also save residents money. Dockside Green claims that home owners use 55% less energy than the average Canadian.Eco-communities also take the future into account by recycling waste and reducing carbon emissions. At Dockside Green, waste water is treated and re
21、used on-site for flushing toilets, and a gas plant changes waste wood into a renewable form of gas for hot water systems, stoves and gas heaters. The community also reduces carbon emissions by using local suppliers for all their transport and maintenance(維修)needs, and residents are encouraged to joi
22、n the community's car share program.1 .Who are likely to buy an environmentally-friendly home?A.People interested in investment.B.Those looking for carbon footprint.C.Those concerned about their health.D.People caring about their community.2 .Dockside Green is.A.an eco- community with over 2,500
23、 peopleB.a good investment for planners and buildersC.the world's first zero-emission neighborhood D.a self-sufficient community in BritishColumbia.Dockside Green saves its residents money by.A.Recycling waste and reducing carbon emissionsB.Encouraging people to join the car share program C.Call
24、ing on people to reduce their carbon footprint D.Equipping people with energy-efficient appliances 4.Who will most likely support the development of eco-communities? A.Climate scientists.B.Natural gas companies.C.Coal mining investors.D.Architects and interior designers.3 . Does your mouth water whe
25、n you think of cookies, burgers and French fries? Many people prefer junk food like this to healthy food because they develop a taste for it. Processed, baked, and fried foods often contain a high amount of trans fats.Trans fats raise bad cholesterol(月旦固醇)and lower the good cholesterol that your bod
26、y needs. Fatty foods do more than cause people to gain too much weight. Trans fats build up in the body and block blood flow to the heart. People whose diet contains a high percentage of trans fats are at risk of developing heart disease or having a stroke.Food companies and restaurants choose to us
27、e trans fat oils because they're cheap and they make food like crackers and baked goods last longer. They also improve the taste of food. Trans fats became very popular in the second half of the 20th century. This is around the time butter got a bad name for its cholesterol levels. People were t
28、old to use margarine(人造黃油)containing trans fats instead because it was "healthier", but we now know that butter is actually the healthier option.We all need some fat in our diet. There are three different types of fats: saturated(飽和的)fats, unsaturated fats and trans fats. Doctors recommend
29、 that we get most of our fatty calories from unsaturated fats. Neither butter nor margarine fit this category, though other spreads like peanut butter do. Reading the list of ingredients on the label is a good way of avoiding dangerous ingredients like trans fats. Another way is to avoid eating out,
30、 especially in fast food restaurants. Also, when shopping try to buy the majority of your food in the fresh-food section and limit the amount of processed and packaged food you buy. You might not think this is important if you're young, but the choices you make now will affect you for the rest o
31、f your life.1 .Food companies and restaurants use trans fat oils to.A.make food more freshB.make food more deliciousC.make food less expensiveD.make food of better quality2 .Which would doctors now say is the healthiest?A.Margarine.B.Butter.C.Chocolate.D.Peanut butter.3 .Who will least likely suffer
32、 from heart disease?A.People that prefer to eat out very often.B.Those who always buy processed and packaged food.C.Those whose diet contains large amounts of trans fats.D.People who avoid buying food with dangerous ingredients.4 .What!s the writer's attitude towards trans fats?A.SupportiveB.Int
33、erested.C.Puzzled.D.Opposed.二、七選五.Driverless cars coming soonYou are driving to school. You look up to see a pretty, hot air balloon. Whoa! You almost went through a stop sign! In a driverless car, you can look at the balloon. Car makers and others are already testing driverless cars or A Vs (automa
34、ted vehicles) in the U.S. and other countries. Driverless cars may be for sale by 2025!When a car is slipping on an icy road, the ABS can tap the brakes quickly. The wheels turn slowly but do not stop. The driver can then steer the car to safety.Many cars also have parallel parking technology. These
35、 cars can park themselves along a street. No driver is needed. As cars get more driverless technology, they will be safer than cars with a driver. Driverless cars can move closer together on the road than cars with drivers. This may make driving on busy roads safer. Google's driverless cars have
36、 been on the road since 2009 without a major crash.A driverless car can see the road better than people with the help of radar, cameras, and lasers. Radar helps the car see things up to 100 meters away even in darkness or rain. Lasers that work like radar, called lidar, spin on the roof and build a
37、3D model of the world around the car.Automated vehicles use a GPS to find the best way from one place to another. All the information from the radar, cameras, lasers, and the GPS goes to the Controller Area Network bus. A bus is a network that lets all those devices talk to one another. A. Also, A V
38、s don't get sleepy or text on their phones while driving.8. Most cars already have some driverless technology like the Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS). C. Google (USA) and Nissan (Japan) are making their own driverless cars.D. The CAN bus uses the information to steer the car and to tell the car
39、to go or stop.E. Cameras help the car see objects that are close.F. The car sees the stop sign without your help and stops the car.G. AV trucks may roll along highways without a truck driver. 三、完形填空(15空)Creative Home Engineering is the world's most famous company devoted to making hidden rooms a
