第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分 35 分)
第一节(共 10 个小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 25 分) 高二英语学科 试题 第3页(共 8 页)
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
The victims were carried in one by one, their paws burned and fur charred, suffering from heavy loss
of water and fear. Their caretakers bandaged their wounds and laid them in baskets with the only thing
that was familiar — the leaves of eucalyptus trees.
As destructive(毁灭性的)fires have burned more than 2 million acres in Australia, dozens of koalas
have been rescued from burning trees and ashen ground.
“They are terrified,” said Cheyne Flanagan, clinical director of the Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie,
the only one in the world.
Koalas, unlike kangaroos, birds or snakes, do not flee from fires but instead climb trees to the top,
where they can roll themselves up into a ball for protection and wait for the danger to pass. But during
the destructive fires, such as those that have burned in recent weeks, the animals are far less likely to
survive. Even if the fire itself does not reach the tree top, the animals may overheat and fall to the ground,
where they can be burned to death.
While koalas have evolved(进化) to exist alongside wildfires, the animals are facing new threats
not just from climate change but also from human development, which will impair their ability to survive
fires.
“We have these unique animals not found anywhere else on this planet, and we're killing them,”
Flanagan said. “This is a big wake-up call.”
21. What do we learn about Koalas from this passage?
A. They are good at climbing trees.
B. Their population drops for illegal hunting.
C. They are less adaptable than birds and snakes.
D. They protect themselves from fires by remaining high up on the trees.
22. The underlined word “impair” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ___________.
A. weaken B. strengthen C. shorten D. sharpen
23. Where is the text probably from?
A. A textbook. B. A journal. C. A news report. D. A guidebook.
B
George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin. These are some of the historic
American men who appear on United States paper currency. But where are the women?
“Thousands of women have been overlooked in history,” Rosie Rios said. From 2009 to 2016, she
served as the 43rd treasurer of the United States. Rios wants to see more female representation on U.S.
money. That’s why she recently helped launch a website and an app called Notable Women. The app uses
AR, or augmented reality, to put portraits (画像) of 100 historic American women on paper money.
Rios cooperated with Google Creative Lab to design the app. It includes portraits of women who
have contributed to all aspects of American life, from science to government. One of them is Clara
Barton, who founded the American Red Cross in 1881. Another is Patsy Takemoto Mink. She became the
U.S.’s first Asian-American congresswoman in 1965. When using the Notable Women app, students point
a smartphone camera at any U.S. bill. Then they can watch as the portrait on the bill transforms into a
female history-maker. By tapping on the new portrait, users can read about the featured woman. 高二英语学科 试题 第4页(共 8 页)
“Why wait until the federal government puts women on currency?” Rios says. “Let’s be able to put
these women on currency now.” Rios and the Google team designed Notable Women for use in the
classroom. Their goal? To encourage discussion about women’s role in American history. They hope that
students realize that women can have the same incredible achievements as men.
Ugo Iroh, 17, has tried the app. She attends the High School for Environmental Studies, in New
York City. Ugo thinks school history lessons don’t give enough attention to the women who have
contributed to America’s past. “Hopefully, through this app, students will be able to learn more about
various unsung women in U.S. history,” Ugo said.
24. What is special about the Notable Women App?
A. It is based on a study of Google Creative lab.
B. It analyses the roles of females in American history.
C. It uses AR to put great American female portraits on notes.
D. It centers on the development of United States paper currency.
25. What is the purpose of using the Notable Women app in classroom?
A. To apply an advanced software in history class.
B. To show women have more achievements than men.
C. To inspire students with great women’s achievements.
D. To teach students how to become famous in the future.
26. What’s Ugo’s attitude towards the app?
A. Doubtful. B. Approving. C. Curious. D. Indifferent.
C
In Singapore, buses have been given the green light to find new ways to reduce emissions(排放) and
improve the air quality of their services.
Last month, GWS Living Art, a company specializing in urban green structures installed (安装)
green roofs on 10 public buses. While a bus might not seem like the typical location for a green roof, the
installation could provide environmental and economic benefits. According to research by Michigan State
University, green roofs are great at reducing polluting emissions, providing spaces for nature and cooling
cities through the water that evaporates(蒸发) from their leaves and by shading surfaces that would
otherwise absorb heat.
"While the impact of green plants on buildings has been well documented, much less is known about
the effects of them on moving vehicles," said Tan Chun Liang, a research fellow at National University of
Singapore who advises the "Garden on the Move" bus campaign. This bus campaign is part of a
three-month study to test whether green plants can help lower the temperature inside the buses and reduce
the amount of fuel needed to power the air-conditioning. Liang hopes the research will provide a possible
solution for cities to fight against global warming and the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect -- when a city
experiences much warmer temperatures than nearby rural areas, due to the heat produced and absorbed
by industry, traffic and building materials.
To make Singapore a "Garden City," the government has joint this bus campaign with other green
projects such as the Green Mark Scheme which aims for 80% of buildings to be green by 2030 and
Gardens by the Bay, an eco-friendly garden featuring solar-powered "supertrees"' and over 1.5 million
plants.
27. Why were green roofs installed on 10 public buses in Singapore? 高二英语学科 试题 第5页(共 8 页)
A. To provide more space for plants to live in.
B. To increase the diversity of species in Singapore.
C. To attract more people to use public transportation.
D. To test green plants’ environmental and economic benefits.
28. According to the text, why can green plants lower the temperature in cities?
A. They can clean the air.
B. They can reflect sunlight.
C. They can absorb greenhouse gases.
D. They can provide water and shade.
29. How many projects are mentioned to make Singapore a "Garden City"?
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
30. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Green Roofs on Buses B. Impact of the Plants
C. Green Campaigns in Singapore D. An Eco-Friendly Garden

Next time your plane lands, listen to the sound of the tyres hitting the ground. 31 The tyres of
cars, motorbikes and trucks are also often made of the same stuff.
32 Workers cut the trunks of the trees and collect a white liquid called latex(乳胶). In the
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, huge numbers of rubber trees were planted in countries
including Malaysia, Burma and Brazil. Nearly half the rubber which is produced each year is natural
rubber and there is always a need for more.
Rubber trees are not easy to grow. 33 Some trees survive while others die and it is all
decided by their genes. British scientists have been working together to look at rubber trees. They have
now discovered the “genome” (基因组) of the rubber tree. 34 The genome contains all the
information the plant or animal needs to grow. The genome for a plant such as a rubber tree is smaller
than a human genome but it is still very long, which is why it has been so difficult to find. Scientists say
the work has been like putting a picture puzzle together where all the pieces show blue sea and blue sky.
Now scientists can use the rubber tree genome to produce stronger trees. By understanding the
genome, they can change the DNA in rubber trees in useful ways. 35
A. Natural rubber comes from trees.
B. Regretfully, many forests are being severely destroyed.
C. This is the way genes fit together in very long chains of DNA
D. Stronger trees have played a more important role in producing tyres.
E. They are affected by changes in temperature, rainfalls, winds and diseases.
F. The reason why the tyres don't explode is that they are made of natural rubber.
G. In the future, it will be possible to grow trees which survive climate change and disease.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
The darkness was gathering as she wobbled(颤颤巍巍)in high heels along the side of the highway.
The car had come to an unexpected stop, and like a normal teenager she did the only thing she could
think of...get out and walk.
It was cold and late, and home was far away. This could be a long night. If only someone would
stop and offer her a ride. She prayed for help and dragged herself forward.
The lights of a truck shone from behind as it approached. “Maybe he will stop,” she hoped. The
brake lights flashed on as it stopped. Next instant, the cab door opened. A wordless invitation was
extended and she understood. Without hesitation the girl climbed up into the seat and closed the door.
Slowly the truck pulled back onto the road and disappeared into the night, never to be seen again.
I woke up in a cold sweat, alarmed. Was that a dream or was it a vision? It was unbelievably real,
and the girl was my daughter! I jumped from my bed and ran to her room. Her bed was empty.
I stood in horror trying to think why she had not come home. As the mental fog began to lift, I
remembered she was visiting her friend that evening. Perhaps she stayed there for the night. It was 1: 30 a.
m, but I raced to the phone and dialed a number.
“Hello?” The voice was heavy with sleep.
“Hey. Sorry to wake you. Becki didn’t come home tonight and I was wondering if she stayed at your 高二英语学科 试题 第8页(共 8 页)
place?”
“No, she left here a few hours ago. She should have been home at least by midnight!” The voice on
the other end began to reflect my own panic.
Over the next forty-five minutes I alternated between lying in pray and pacing the floor in anxiety.
At 2:15 a.m. lights appeared as a car turned up our long driveway. I could tell immediately that it
was not my daughter’s car.
