The world-famous painting resides in the Louvre Museum in Paris.‎ ‎ The regulations are of no legal value，defense lawyer Romain Boulet said before Thursday’s ruling．Furthermore，their argument emphasized that a smile would give hard-pressed France“a morale boost”and hoped the appeal court’s approval would make the French people smile. Unfortunately，their intentions failed to amuse French justice．Whether people are cheerful or not，their passport photos must show only poker faces． ‎ ‎25．The unnamed French civil servant had his passport application turned down because _____. ‎ A．he lost a case in 2014. B．he charged French authorities. ‎ 新课标第一网系列资料 www.xkb1.com www.xkb1.com 新课标第一网不用注册，免费下载！‎ C．his photo was too noticeable. D．there was a smile in his photo.‎ ‎ 26．Why was Mona Lisa mentioned in the passage?‎ A．To remind readers the painting is now in Paris．‎ B．To emphasize the strictness of the passport rule． ‎ C．To introduce the great painter Leonardo da Vinci．‎ D．To show what kind of smile is acceptable to authorities． ‎ ‎27．If we say someone has a“poker face”，we probably mean___________．‎ A．he looks attractive. B．he appears frightening.‎ C．he wears no expression. D．he seems enjoyable.‎ C Surviving Hurricane ‎Sandy Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.‎ On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.‎ When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.‎ In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.‎ ‎“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “ but I can always choose how I deal with it.”‎ Natalie’s choice was to help.‎ She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned 新课标第一网系列资料 www.xkb1.com www.xkb1.com 新课标第一网不用注册，免费下载！‎ ‎ down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.‎ In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.‎ Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.”‎ ‎28. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found______.‎ A. her neighborhood was destroyed. B. some friends had lost their lives.‎ C. her school had moved to Brooklyn. D. the elderly were free from suffering.‎ ‎29. According to paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most?‎ A. The people helping Rockaway rebuild.‎ B. The people trapped in high-rise building.‎ C. The volunteers donating money to survivors.‎ D. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.‎ ‎30. How did Natalie help the survivors?‎ A. She gave her toys to the kids. B. She took care of younger children.‎ C. She called on the White House to help. D. She built an information sharing platform.‎ ‎31. What does the story intend to tell us?‎ A. Little people can make a big difference. B.A friend in need is a friend indeed.‎ C. East or West, home is best. D. Technology is power.‎ D It never occurred to anybody, not even the creators that the world would care about the complex lives, loves and sufferings of a group of attractive and witty New Yorkers. But there’s no doubt that Friends(老友记)has become more than just a successful situation comedy ─ it has established itself as one of the last great television phenomena of the last century. Along the way, it has made its half-dozen leading actors famous.‎ Looking back on the strong friendship between the group of three men and three women who frequently gather at each other’s apartments and at Greenwich Village’s Central Perk coffee house, Friends 新课标第一网系列资料 www.xkb1.com www.xkb1.com 新课标第一网不用注册，免费下载！‎ ‎ was created by television producers, David Crane and Marta Kauffman. In 1993, the pair met producer Kevin S. Bright. Then the three became partners and got a deal to produce a new comedy for Warner Brothers. What they came up with was based on Crane and Kauffman’s after-college years, when they hung out at the local coffee house and involved themselves in every aspect of each other’s lives.‎ It didn’t take long for viewers to make friends with Friends. The situation comedy quickly became a top ten hit. Critics loved it as well. Entertainment Weekly said the show operated like a Broadway show, with twisty plots and unique jokes. The television theme song has also been a success with the public. The song’s success helped save the television theme song. An ABC(美国广播公司)executive was ready to order very short music intros(前奏) on his network’s shows, thinking that viewers would hit the remote control as soon as the opening started. But the success of the Friends theme song led the ABC executive to change his mind ─ remote controls or not, the TV theme song would stay.‎ Years have gone by, but Friends remains and will remain an example of a modern US situation comedy that is both hugely entertaining television and nothing short of a genuine latter-day social phenomenon.‎ ‎32．What is stressed in the second paragraph?‎ A. The brilliance of Friends. B. The popularity of Friends.‎ C. The origin of Friends. D. The role models of Friends.‎ ‎33．Which of the following is TRUE about Friends?‎ A. It has a simple but entertaining plot. ‎ B. It first came into being in the 1990s.‎ C. It was criticized by Entertainment Weekly.‎ D. It is about friendship between college students.‎ ‎34．What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. Producer, Kevin S. Bright, graduated from the same college as David Crane. ‎ B. ABC once replaced the theme song of its TV show with a short music intro.‎ C. The ABC executive thought highly of the theme song of Friends.‎ D. Marta Kauffman expected Friends to achieve great success.‎ ‎35．What might the author think of Friends?‎ A. Its strengths outweigh its weaknesses.‎ B. He/she shows great affection towards it.‎ 新课标第一网系列资料 www.xkb1.com www.xkb1.com 新课标第一网不用注册，免费下载！‎ C. He/she has a reserved attitude towards its success.‎ D. Its success lies in the lack of good situation comedies.‎ 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。‎ How to Write a News Article Writing a news article is different from writing other articles or informational pieces. 36 knowing how to write a news article can help you exercise your writing skills and convey information clearly and briefly. ‎ Gather all your facts.

At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and the nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess their own paintings decorate their superb palaces, great houses and possession as well as their activities. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. Seeing his paintings for the first time, people were convinced that we were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the rules of perspective have not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint so realistic pictures. In coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, that made the colors used in paintings look richer and deeper. ‎ 第二节 书面表达（满分25分）‎ 因担心学生们在比赛中的安全，学校领导取消了一年一度的篮球赛，学生们对此很难过。假如你是学生李华，给校长写一封信，劝说校长同意恢复篮球赛。 ‎ 注意：1. 词数100左右；‎ ‎2. 可以适当增加细节以使行文连贯；‎ ‎ 3. 开头语已为你写好。‎ Dear headmaster, ‎ ‎__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Look forward to your reply.‎ ‎ ‎ Yours sincerely, ‎ ‎ Li Hua 新课标第一网系列资料 www.xkb1.com www.xkb1.com 新课标第一网不用注册，免费下载！‎ 高二英语期末考试卷 ‎ 参考答案 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分）‎ ‎1-5 ACBBA 6-10 BCBAB 11-15 ACCAC 16-20 ABACC 第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分40分)‎ A篇 21-24 DDBC B篇 25-27 DBC C篇 28-31 AADA ‎ D篇 32-35 CBCB E篇 36-40 EGDCA 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎41-45 DCACC 46-50 BDBAC 51-55 DBABC 56-60 DACDA 第二节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）‎ ‎61. personal 62. exposed 63. consequence 64. an 65. to defeat ‎66. where 67. had drunk 68. that 69. be examined 70.
