【正文】 高二英語開學(xué)考試試題（寒假作業(yè)過關(guān)檢測題） (考試時(shí)間： 120 分鐘 試卷總分： 150 分 ) 第一部分：閱讀理解 (滿分 30 分 ) 閱讀下列短文，并從每題所給的 A、 B、 C、 D 四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中， 選出最佳答案。 A I’m Evan Ducker. I’m just like every other 15yearold boy, except I was born with a red birthmark. Some birthmarks are signs of serious medical conditions. I’m very fortunate—mine isn’t, I pretty much live a regular life, except for people asking me about it all the time, which can get annoying (惱人的 ) sometimes. When I was about 4 years old, I asked my mom why there weren’t any characters with birthmarks in the books she would read to me. When we went to the library, we realized there weren’t any available for little kids. Worse than that, the books available to older kids and adults described characters with birthmarks as unattractive. So I decided to write my own. I based the story on all the real things that happened in my life. But instead of people, the characters in the book are real animals from the Galapagos Islands, including redfooted booby birds (鰹鳥 ). I picked a booby bird as the main character because the birds have red feet due to a vascular (血管的 ) condition, similar to a human birthmark! It was really tough to get my book published. It took a long time because a lot of publishers refused to publish it. They would say there wasn’t a big enough market for a book about birthmarks. But my mom never gave up trying to help make my dream e true. And in 2021, she finally took her own money and selfpublished Buddy Booby’s Birthmark. After it was published, I got letters from readers all over the world. They all shared their stories and thanked me for sharing mine. Teachers wrote to tell me that my book changed the way classmates treated each other and that my book was helping kids to accept and appreciate their differences. Then, as more teachers started reading my book, I created a free global reading event, the “International Buddy Booby’s Birthmark Read—Along for Tolerance and Awareness”. 1. The author’s birthmark seems to . A. be easy to remove B. annoy him all the time C. cause serious health problems D. bring him some trouble 2. What the author found in the library made him . A. regretful B. disappointed C. stressed D. bored 3. What did the publishers think of the author’s book? A. It wouldn’t sell well. B. It was rather uninteresting. C. It was poorly written. D. It wasn’t fit for kids to read. 4. The author’s book Buddy Booby’s Birthmark . A. was a bestseller in 2021 B. was the first book about birthmarks C. made a difference to its readers D. helped kids all in love with reading B My first impression of Miss Vicki was a highly authoritative (權(quán)威的 ) person towering over me. She spoke in a loud voice and the earth shook whenever she marched. That was in the first year of high school she was a knowledgeable literature teacher then. However, during my first year in school, she struck terror into my heart (使我但戰(zhàn)心驚 )， and everyone else’s of course. Just the mention of her name made the most unruly classes silent. Nevertheless, the two years of junior high passed by rather quickly. Soon, I went to senior high class, I had worked hard and gotten the subject bination that I wished for. Together with a group of old friends, I soon settled down in class fortably. To everyone’s surprise, she was fortunate enough to be my teacher that year. I was shocked when I heard the news. This time round, however, I decided not to hide in terror whenever she was near. I decided to face the fact that we were going to meet each other for the next 365 days. Instead of trying too hard to lick her boots, I tried my best to be my natural self in front of her. Still, I could not shake off the icecold impression that she put in my heart. Truly, her jokes sometimes sent me into fits of laughter, yet at other times these jokes simply fell flat the moment she told them. My lovely class, however, was always ready to laugh at the right time of her amusing stories. After all, we would not want to run the risk of provoking (激怒 ) her. Unluckily, life was not to remain boring. One day we received news that Miss Vicki was to leave Singapore for the Philippines where she would take part in a voluntary
