1、天津市塘沽第一中学2021届高三英语上学期第一次月考试题（含解析）第一部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分）第一节：单项填空（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 从 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。1. “Could we put off the meeting?” she asked.“_.” He answered politely. “This is the only day everyone is available.”A. Not likelyB. Not exactlyC. Not nearlyD. Not really【答案】D【解析
2、】【详解】考查交际用语。句意：“我们能推迟会议吗？” 她问。“不太行。”他礼貌地说。“这是唯一每个人都有空的一天。” A. Not likely不可能；B. Not exactly并非如此；C. Not nearly远非；D. Not really不完全是，不太行。根据空后He answered politely. “This is the only day everyone is available.”可知，推迟会议是不太行的。如何选用A. Not likely，语气则显得太过生硬。故选D。2. Catherine, _ the alarm clock for 6 oclock, or yo
3、u would oversleep and be late for the train.A. settingB. setsC. setD. to set【答案】C【解析】【详解】【分析】这题考查祈使句。句意：凯瑟琳，把闹钟定到6点，否则你会睡过头，火车就赶不上了。分析句子并结合句意可知此处为“祈使句+or+陈述句”结构，用动词原形，故选。3. The building, from _top visitors can enjoy a good view of Sanya, attracts hundreds of tourists every day.A. whichB. whoseC. its
4、D. where【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：这座建筑每天吸引着数百名游客，游客可以从它的顶层俯瞰三亚的美景。分析题意，定语从句的先行词The building和top之间表示所属关系。此处需用whose在从句中做定语。故选B项。4. John _ in the United States for decades, but in the last years he has already adapted to living in China.A. was livingB. had livedC. has livedD. Lived【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查动词时态。句意：约
5、翰在美国生活了很多年，但在最近这几年中他已经适应了在中国的生活。根据living in China可知约翰现在在中国居住，再结合in the United States中时间状语for decades可知是过去的事情，故选D项。5. This article opens and closes with descriptions of two news reports, each _one major point in contrast with the other.A. makesB. madeC. makingD. is to make【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：这篇文章
6、开篇和结尾都描述了两篇新闻报道，每篇报道都提出了一个主要的对比观点。分析题意，简单句已有动词opens and closes，故动词make需用非谓语动词。句中逻辑主语“每篇报道”和make之间表示主动关系，所以备选动词需用doing的形式表示。综合分析，故选C项。6. -Why so serious, dear?-Nothing I am just thinking about the problem _tomorrow.A. discussedB. will be discussedC. to be discussedD. being discussed【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查非谓语
7、动词。句意：-为什么这么严肃，亲爱的?-什么都没有。我正在考虑明天要讨论的问题。分析题意，简单句中的动词为am just thinking, 所以此处的备选动词需用非谓语动词。逻辑主语the problem 和discuss之间表被动，且发生于将来时间。综合分析应用to be done表示“将被.”。故选C项。7. Some parents are just too protective.They want to _ their kids from every kind of danger，real or imagined.A. spotB. dismissC. distinguishD. s
8、helter【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查动词辨析。spot目击；dismiss开除；distinguish区分；shelter庇护。句意：有的父母太过于溺爱孩子。他们想保护孩子免受任何形式的危险，无论是真实的危险，还是虚构的危险。词组：shelter sb. from sth. “保护/遮蔽某人不受某事的危害”。故D选项正确。8. A _identification card is required when you purchase foreign money from Bank of China.A beneficialB. effectiveC. validD. flexible【答案
9、】C【解析】【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：当你向中国银行购买外币时，会被要求出示有效期内的身份证。A. beneficial有益的，有利的；B. effective有效的，起作用的；C. valid有效的，合法的；D. flexible灵活的。结合句意可直接排除A、D选项，其也无法与“身份证”搭配而修饰这一名词。题目重点在于B、C的辨析，effective是指某物、某事有实际效果，能起作用的“有效”，而valid是指有效期内的，正当合法的“有效”，在本句语境中valid恰当。故选C。9. When are you going to return my novel? Dont worry.
10、You _ have your book soon, I promise.A. shallB. shouldC. mayD. must【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查情态动词。句意：你什么时候还我的小说？别担心。我保证你一定会很快拿到你的书。A. shall一定会（表允诺）；B. should应该（表责任义务）；C. may也许（表可能）；D. must必须（表必要/很重要）。由Dont worry.和I promise.可知，说话人允诺一定会很快归还，所以用shall。故选A项。【点睛】shall的用法1、shall表示单纯的将来，用于第一人称；第二人称只用于问句；口语中常以will代替，作“
11、将要、会”。2、shall表示说话者的意图、允诺、告诫、警告、命令、决心等，用于陈述句的第二、第三人称，作“一定会”“必须”“应该”“可以”。3、shall在条约、规章、法令等文件中表示义务或规定，一般用于第三人称，作“应”“必须”。如在本题中，根据I promise可知，此处表示允诺（一定会），所以用shall。故选A项。10. -I like staying at home, watching TV or surfing the Internet all day on Sundays.-Thats _I dont agree. I think youd better go out for
12、a walk.A. whereB. howC. whenD. what【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查表语从句。句意：-我喜欢在星期天呆在家里，整天看电视或上网。-这就是我不同意的地方。我想你最好出去走走。分析题意，表语从句部分缺“状语”所以从句引导词用连接副词，根据句意可知，此处缺“不同意的方面/地方”。综合分析，故选A项。11. -It is said that JK Rolling is coming to our school. Are you coming to her speech?- _. I cant wait.A. Its a dealB. You betC. It is up
13、 to youD. Of course not【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查固定短语。句意：听说J.K Rolling要来我们学校了。你来听她的演讲吗？当然，我迫不及待了。A. Its a deal一言为定；B. You bet当然；C. It is up to you取决于你；D. Of course not当然不。由回答“我迫不及待了”可知，“当然”符合句意，故选B。12. I still remember the accident and the troubles _has caused to me.A. whichB. whatC. itD. when【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查代词
14、。句意：我依然记住那个意外事故以及它已经给我带来的麻烦。分析句子可知，the troubles 后面是一个省略了关系代词that/which的定语从句，关系代词that/which在该定语从句中只充当动词caused的宾语，故从句需要代词it作为主语指代前文的the accident，故此处填it。故选C项。13. I wonder when it was_you came to realize _his words meant.A. that; whatB. what; thatC. what; whatD. that; which【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查强调句及宾语从句。句意：我想知
15、道究竟是什么时候你意识到他所说的话的真正意思是什么。本句是一个多重复合句。I wonder后是when引导的强调句式的特殊疑问句，可以复原为“It was (when) that you came to realize”以协助理解，所以空一用强调句的引导词that；及物动词realize后接宾语从句，该从句中动词meant后的宾语缺失，即空二应填入能充当meant宾语的疑问词来引导宾语从句，结构为meant sth.(what)，故what正确。故选A。14. Only when _ be possible to sign the papers.A. does the lawyer come
16、with itB. the lawyer comes will itC. has the lawyer come it willD. the lawyer comes it will【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查倒装。句意：只有律师来了才有可能在文件上签字。only + 状语从句位于句首，主句要进行部分倒装，从句不倒装。故选B。15. -Where are we going for dinner?-I dont mind where we go_there is my favorite food sushi.A. in caseB. as soon asC. now thatD. so lon
17、g as【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查条件状语从句。句意：-我们要去哪里吃晚饭?-我不介意我们去哪里，只要有我最喜欢的寿司。根据句意可知，此处表示“只要”有寿司，去哪都可以。so long as 译为“只要”引导条件状语从句。此处符合题意。A. in case 以防；B. as soon as 一.就；C. now that 既然，由于。综合分析，故选D项。第二节：完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从1635 各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。When I was a child my father taught me

55、ning fifteen years before, he had given a party.There had been many clever men, and they had talked of capital punishment. The majority disapproved of the death penalty (死刑). They considered it immoral and ought to be replaced by imprisonment for life. “I dont agree,” said the banker, “the death pen
56、alty is more moral than imprisonment for life. Capital punishment kills a man at once, but lifelong imprisonment kills him slowly.” Among the guests was a young lawyer, a young man of twenty-five. When asked, he said, “if I have to choose between the death penalty and imprisonment for life, I would
57、certainly choose the second. Its better to live somehow than not to live at all.”The banker struck the table with his fist and shouted at the young man, “Its not true! Ill bet you two millionsyou wouldnt stay in a cell (小牢房) even for five years.”“If you mean it seriously,” said the young man, “Ill t
58、ake the bet, but I would stay not five but fifteen years.”“Fifteen? Done!” cried the banker, “Gentlemen, I stake (下注) two millions!”“Agreed! _!” said the young man. And this wild, senseless bet was carried out!And now the banker, walking to and from, asked himself, “What is the object of that bet? W
59、hat is the good of that mans losing fifteen years of his life and my throwing away two millions?” Then he remembered what followed that evening. It was decided that the young man should spend the years of his imprisonment under the strictest supervision, in a lodge (小屋) in the bankers house. He shou

61、gation (义务) to pay him the two millions.For the first year of his imprisonment, the prisoner suffered severely from loneliness and depression. The books he sent for were novels with a complicated love plot, fantastic stories, and so on. In the second year, the prisoner asked only for the classics. I
62、n the fifth year, he did not read books. More than once he could be heard crying. In the sixth year, the prisoner began enthusiastically studying languages, philosophy, and history. In the last two years, the prisoner read a large quantity of books. At one time he was busy with the natural sciences,
63、 then he would ask for Byron or Shakespeare.The old banker remembered all this, and thought, “Tomorrow at twelve oclock he will regain his freedom, and I ought to pay him two millions. If I do pay him, its all over with me.” Fifteen years before, his millions had been beyond his imagination; now he
64、was in great debt.“Cursed bet!” cried the old man in despair, “The only way out for me is that the man should die.”The clock had just struck three. The banker felt his way in the darkness into the lodge. He struck a match. Not a soul was there! Only a letter! A letter from the prisoner!“Tomorrow at
65、twelve oclock Ill regain my freedom. For fifteen years I have diligently studied earthly life. Your books gave me wisdom.To prove to you in action how I despise (鄙视) all that you live by, I waive (宣布放弃) the two millions, which I once dreamed of as paradise and which now I despise. I shall go out fro

You stake your millions and I stake my life.C. You bet your millions and I bet my career.D. You stake y

C【解析】这是一篇记叙文。本文选自契诃夫的作品打赌，文章讲述了老银行家和年轻律师之间的赌约，通过故事告诉我们阅读的重要性，头脑中的智慧比手里的钱更重要。【41题详解】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第四段关键句“If I do pay him, its all ov
72、er with me.” Fifteen years before, his millions had been beyond his imagination; now he was in great debt.”可知，银行家认为，如果他真的付两百万给那个年轻人，他就完了。十五年前，他很有钱，但现在他负债累累。由此可推断出，老银行家在书房里走来走去是因为他害怕会因为在打赌中输掉而失去很多钱。故选C项。【42题详解】推理判断题。根据空格上句“Fifteen? Done!” cried the banker, “Gentlemen, I stake (下注) two millions!”和空格前“
73、Agreed!”可知，银行家和年轻人达成了赌约，银行家用两百万作为赌注，年轻人用15年的自由作为赌注。“You stake your millions and I stake my freedom.”意为“你拿你的钱作赌注，我拿我的自由作赌注。”选项内容符合两个人之间的赌约内容。故选D项。【43题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“To prove to you in action how I despise (鄙视) all that you live by, I waive (宣布放弃) the two millions, which I once dreamed of as parad
74、ise and which now I despise.”可知，两百万美元是这个年轻人曾经梦想的天堂，但现在他鄙视这两百万美元。由此可推断出，年轻律师选择在银行家的小屋里被关15年的初衷是赚一大笔钱,因为他把这两百万美元看作是梦想的天堂。故选A项。【44题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第五段内容可知，第一年律师看的是爱情小说和奇幻故事类的书；第二年他只读经典书籍；第五年，他不再读书，开始大哭；第六年，开始学习语言、哲学和历史；在最后的一段时间里，他学习自然科学，会读拜伦和莎士比亚的书。由此可推断出，从爱情小说和奇幻故事到语言、哲学和历史，再到自然科学，拜伦和莎士比亚的书，这说明，这位律师的阅读水平
75、在逐渐提高。故选B项。【45题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“For fifteen years I have diligently studied earthly life. Your books gave me wisdom.To prove to you in action how I despise (鄙视) all that you live by, I waive (宣布放弃) the two millions, which I once dreamed of as paradise and which now I despise.”可知，15年的时间里，年轻律师读了很多书，
76、书给了他智慧，现在，他鄙视他曾经视为天堂的两百万，所以他放弃了这两百万。由此可推断出，15年的时间里。律师明白一个道理，智慧比金钱更重要。“Wisdom in the mind is better than money in the hand.”意为“头脑中的智慧比手里的钱好。”能够概括律师放弃两百万的原因。故选C项。【46题详解】主旨大意题。本文选自契诃夫的作品打赌，文章讲述了老银行家和年轻律师之间的赌约，通过故事告诉我们阅读的重要性，头脑中的智慧比手里的钱更重要。“The bet”意为“打赌”，能够概括文章主旨。故选C项。CThe COVID-19 pandemic has spread

78、ts who study earthquakes - have heard a lot less seismic（地震的） noise recently.Seismic noise is made from vibrations (continuous shaking movements) in the ground that are caused by things like ocean waves and human activity, such as construction work and traffic. This noise makes it difficult for scie
79、ntists to pick up seismic activity that is made at the same frequency.Thomas Lecocq, a scientist at the Royal Observatory of Belgium, located in Brussels, was the first to notice this phenomenon. According to Lecocq, the amount of seismic noise in Brussels has been reduced by about 30 to 50 percent
80、since mid-March. Interestingly enough, this is around the same time Belgium started its measures. Because of this reduction in background noise, scientists like Lecocq have been able to pick up on smaller earthquakes that some seismic stations - like the one in Brussels - wouldnt have been able to b
81、efore.This phenomenon isnt unique to Brussels, though. Once Lecocq shared his findings online, seismologists from all over the world echoed similar findings. Celeste Labedz, a graduate student at the California Institute of Technology, mentioned in a tweet that Los Angeles also experienced less back

88、s in the ground that are caused by things like ocean waves and human activity, such as construction work and traffic.”（地震学家研究地震的科学家最近听到的地震噪音少了。地震噪音是由海浪和人类活动(如建筑工程和交通)引起的地面振动所产生的。）可知，地震学家最近发现了地震噪声是由地下振动引起的。故选D项。【48题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Because of this reduction in background noise, scientists like Lecocq
89、 have been able to pick up on smaller earthquakes that some seismic stations - like the one in Brussels - wouldnt have been able to before.”（由于背景噪音的减少，像Lecocq这样的科学家已经能够检测到一些地震观测站比如布鲁塞尔的地震观测站以前无法检测到的小地震。）和第5-6段对其他的城市比如Los Angeles、UK、France和New Zealand科学家的发现可知，我们可以了解到更多关于小地震的数据正在被收集。故选B项。【49题详解】词义猜测题。
90、由第五段“This phenomenon isnt unique to Brussels, though. Once Lecocq shared his findings online, seismologists from all over the world echoed similar findings.”（这种现象不只是发生在布鲁塞尔。Lecocq把他的发现发布到网上之后，世界各地的地震学家也提出了类似的发现。）可知，通过isnt unique to、similar可以推断echo这里指附和，重复提出的意思。A.repeated 重复； B.demanded 要求；C.explored
