上海市七宝中学2024~2025学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题（含答案）

2024-2025学年七宝中学高三上英语第一次月考 II. Grammar and Vocabulary Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals and soldiers, while the people 21 ( help) civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat or calculated the length of the year, or manured (施肥) a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers. People think a great deal of them, so much that on all the highest pillars(纪念柱) in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a solider. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are 22 that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not 23 ( civilized).

Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some ways of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side 27 kill off greater number of the other side, and then saying that the side which has killed most 28 ( win). It means 29 ( say) that power is right. This is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars, 30 millions of people were killed or disabled. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets -- while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life -- nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. modesty B. estimates C. burdened D. entitles A B. justifying AC. concern AD. opposed BC. Intensive BD. morally CD. imposes ABC. viewing Only two countries in the advanced world provide no guarantee for paid leave from work to care for a newborn child. Last spring one of the two, Australia, gave up the bad distinction by setting up paid family leave starting in 2011. I wasn't surprised when this didn't make the news here in the United States - we' re now the only wealthy country without such a policy. The United States does hav ... ...
