安徽省郎溪中学20xx-20xx学年高二下学期第三次月考英语试题word版含答案(1)内容摘要：

he whistle language continues. It is very useful on the island, and quite easy to learn. When somebody is hurt or ill, the whistle language takes the place of telephone. If the sick person is quite far away from the town, people pass the message from one to another. A boy guarding cattle on a hillside whistles to a man fishing from his boat. The last one is able to describe the trouble fully and exactly to the doctor in town. People help one another in the same way when a car breaks down or a cow is lost. The whistle language is hundreds of years old, and probably it will continue to live on for hundreds of years more. Radio and TV often kill the special ways of speaking in different parts of a country. But on La Gomera you are nobody if you cannot whistle. Perhaps soon after TV arrives on the island, people there will be whistling the news and other facts and opinions. 28. If a person on La Gomera is ill, ______.

La Gomera－ a Mystery C. The Life of Islanders D. Do You Know the Whistle Language? D There is no doubt that the United States has entered a brand new age, because Donald Trump, the country’s 45th president, is very different from any president before him. Unlike Hillary Clinton, his opponent, and most former US presidents, who entered the election after years of being politicians, Trump, 70, was a New York real estate businessman. And he was not a presidential candidate who worked hard to keep a perfect public image of a man who was always caring, fair and wise. Instead, Trump is famous for being badtempered, arrogant(傲慢的 ) and hateful toward dissidents(意见不同的人 ). He also hates immigrants, both from Latin America and the Middle East. This has caused a dangerous division in the country—a country made up of many various races. But to his supporters, the fact that Trump is not a typical politician is actually one of his advantages. His habit of never hiding his opinions is also considered by many to be a sign that he is not a hypocrite like many politicians are. ―We have seen our country take a downturn in the eyes of the world. We need to go in a different direction, ‖ Binyamin Weiss, 39, a man from Chicago, told the Chicago Tribune. ―Trump’s not a politician... I like that he is not always politically correct and speaks his mind. It gives me the feeling that what you see is what you get. You may not like it, but you know what it is.‖ But interestingly, many who elected Trump actually followed the ―lesser of two evils‖ principle—one that people use when faced with picking from two unpleasant options—simply because they didn’t think Clinton was a better choice. ―He’s the candidate I disagree less with, ‖ Jack, 20, a student at Norwestern University, told the Chicago Tribune. ―I don’t think I’d say Donald Trump is going to be the best president ever, but I did think he’d be better than Hillary Clinton.‖ It’s true that the US is entering a new age. It’s just not clear yet what kind of age it’s going to be. 32. Trump is not like most typical politicians for the following reasons except that_____ A. he was elected because his supporters voted for him. B. he didn’t try to keep a perfect public image as a candidate. C. he gained popularity by his bad attitudes towards dissidents. D. he is not always politically correct and speaks his mind. 33. The underlined words ―a hypocrite‖ is closely related in meaning to _____. A. a shy person B. a handsome person C. a dishonest person D. a caring person 34. According to the passage, many Americans elected Trump because _____. A. they considered Trump to be a successful businessman B. they expected a change and hoped US would bee better C. they thought that Trump’ s personality was suitable for it D.。
