上海西渡学校2023年高三英语上学期期末试卷含解析一、选择题1.Asmallplanecrashedintoahillsidefivemileseastofthecity,_____allfourpeopleonboard.A.killed

B.killing

C.kills

D.tokill参考答案：B解析：非谓语动词的考查。非谓语动词是我们语法的重点，也是历年高考的重点，非谓语动词一共三种形式，inged和todo形式，每种形式分别对应两种含义。本题中我们判断asmallplane和kill之间的逻辑关系，应该是主动，所以是ing形式。2.—Whydidn’tyouhiretheyoungman?—__________qualification,abilityandexperience,he‘snotwellsuitedtothepositionweoffer.A.Intermsof

B.Inspiteof

C.Infavorof

D.Inwantof参考答案：A考查短语辨析。A意为“在……方面”，B意为“尽管”，C意为“有利于，赞同”，D意为“需要”。句意：—你为什么不雇佣那个年轻的男人呢？—在品质、能力和经验方面，他不是和我们提供的这个职位。根据句意可知选项A正确故选A。3.Don’tdefendhimanymore.It’sobviousthathe______destroyedthefenceofthegardenevenwithoutapology.A.accidentally

B.carelesslyC.deliberately

D.clumsily参考答案：Cdeliberately故意地，蓄意；accidentally偶然地，意外地，非故意地；carelessly粗心大意地，草率地；clumsily笨拙地，粗陋地；此处是指“不要为他辩护了，很明显他是故意破坏了花园的篱笆而不道歉。”所以选C。解题的关键在于正确理解和把握一词多义和熟词生义。

carrectingdirectioneverynowandthen,youhavealreadygoneforward."

第一处:able→unable。根据语境可知,此处指的应是起初,作者不能控制方向。故应用unable。第二处:fall→fell。根据文章首句中的"Lastsummer"可知,此处描述的是发生在过去的事情,应用一般过去时。第三处:worrying→worried。句子的主语是I,此处指的应是"感到担心的",应用worried。worrying"令人担心的",常用来修饰物。第四处:he→I。根据语境可知,此处指作者问父亲自己为什么不能骑得比较直。故将he改为I。第五处:So→But。前后句之间是转折关系,而不是因果关系,故用But。第六处:去掉Instead后的of。根据语境可知,此处应用副词instead表示父亲反而把作者带到了街道的一边。insteadof"代替,而不是……"为介词短语,后面要接名词、代词或动名词。第七处:在side前加the。此处特指街道的一边,且side是可数名词,故应加上定冠词the。第八处:is→are。that引导的是定语从句,并在从句中作主语,指代的是"biketracks",表示复数概念,故从句谓语应用are。第九处:careful→carefully。修饰动词应用副词。第十处:correct→correcting。此处作介词by的宾语,故应用动名词形式。三、阅读理解20.MyGrandpaForgetsWhoIAmAfewdaysagoIvisitedmygrandfatherinhospital.HehasAlzhemier’s—adegenerativediseasethatusuallystartsslowlyandgetsworseovertime.IthoughtIwaspreparedtoseehim.Iknewchanceswereslimthathe'dactuallyrecognizeme.Hedidn’t.Asamatteroffact,hehadnoideathatheevenhadgrandchildren.Buthewasexcitedthatsomebodycametovisithim.ItriedtoexplaintohimwhoIwas.Butafterhetoldmemultipletimesthathedidn’thavegrandchildren,Igaveup.Andmyheartbrokeintoamillionlittlepieces.Iwastiredofexplainingthingstohim.SoIjustsmiled.Hesmiledback.It'sagenuinesmile.Likealongtimeago,whenhe’dtakemebythehandandmadethisbigworldalittlebitlessscaryforme.NowIhavetotakehishand.Wesatinsilenceforalittlewhile,beforehetoldmetocallmygrandma.ThiswasthefirsttimeIhadtriedsohardtoholdbacktears.Mygrandmadiedfouryearsagoandhedidn'tremember.Hethoughtshewasstuckonherwaytopickhimup.Mygrandpausedtobeastrong,hard-workingman.Hewasthepersonyouturnedtowhenyouneededyourcarfixed,yourtireschangedorsomethingheavytobecarried.Sadly,thatmanleftthisworldalongtimeago,andleftbehindamanthatislostandscared.Iwanttohelphim.Iwanttomakehimfeelbetter.Iwanttotellhimabouthisoldlife,andhowgreatitwas.SoIsatwithhimandIheldhishand,andeveryonceinawhileItoldhimhowgoodhelookedandhowmuchIlikedthecolor1ofhisshirtandhowitbroughtouttheblueinhiseyes.Itoldhimthatmygrandmawasonherwaywheneverheaskedabouther,andImadesuretheglassinhishandwasalwaysfilledwithwater.Ican’ttakeawayhispain.Ican’thelphimremember.Ican’tmakethediseasegoaway.AllIcandoisholdontothememories—holdonforbothofus.34.Whentheauthorfirstsawhergrandpainhospital______.A.shegaveuponhimB.theywerebothexcitedC.hedidn’trecognizeherD.theytalkedaboutthepast35.Theauthorwasclosetotearsbecause______.A.grandmadiedaboutfouryearsagoB.grandpaneededtobetakencareofC.grandmadidn’tmakeittothehospitalD.grandpabelievedgrandmawasstillalive36.Whichofthefollowingbestdescribetheauthor?A.Tolerantandmerciful.B.Considerateandpatient.C.Warm-heartedandgrateful.D.Strong-mindedandgenerous.37.Theauthorwrotethispassageto______.A.showpitytowardshergrandpaB.recordmemoriesofhergrandpaC.expressdeeploveforhergrandpaD.callonfurtherstudyonAlzheimer’s参考答案：34.C
