AI took the bus to work for many years. No one knew each other; the passengers all sat there sleepily in the morning. The bus was cheerless and silent.One of the passengers was a small gray-haired man who took the bus to the center for senior citizens every morning. No one ever paid very much attention to him.One July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled. The driver nodded guardedly(戒备地). The rest of us were silent.The next day, the old man boarded with a big smile and said in a loud voice: “A very good morning to you all!” Some of us looked up, amazed, and murmured “Good Morning” in reply.The following weeks, our friend was dressed in a nice old suit and tie. His thin hair had been carefully combed. He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other.One morning he even had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand. The driver turned around smiling and asked: “Have you got yourself a girlfriend, Charlie?” We never got to know if his name really was “Charlie”, but he nodded shyly and said yes. The other passengers whistled and clapped at him. Charlie waved the flowers before he sat down on his seat.Every morning after that Charlie always brought flowers. Some passengers also brought flowers for him. The bus became a happy place.Then, one morning, as autumn was closing in, Charlie wasn’t waiting at his usual stop. When he wasn’t there the next day and the day after that, we started wondering if he was sick or—hopefully – on holiday somewhere.When we came nearer to the center for senior citizens, one of the passengers asked the driver to wait. We all held our breaths when he went to the door.The old gentle man was fine, but one of his close friends had died over the weekend. How silent we were the rest of the way to work.The next Monday Charlie was waiting at the stop, stooping (弯腰) a bit more, a little bit more gray, and without a tie. Inside the bus was silent. Even though no one had talked about it, all of us sat there silently, our eyes filled with tears and a bunch of wild flowers in our hands.1. From the passage, we can infer that .A. people always cared about each other on the busB. people were unhappy and sleepy on the bus because they were tiredC. smiles can shorten the distance between peopleD. people are not good at communicating in the country2. What are we sure about the old man?A. His name was Charlie.B. He worked at the center for senior citizens.C. He got sick over the weekend.D. He was in great sorrow when we saw him the next Monday.3. Which of the following is not true?A. The atmosphere on the bus was cheerful and lively at first.B. People were surprised at the old man’s first greeting.C. People were worried about the old man’s absence.D. People on the bus at last shared happiness and sorrow together.4. Which would be the best title for the passage？A. How to Shorten the Distance between PeopleB. Smiles Make a Bus Feel Like HomeC. Charlie, A Smiling Gentle ManD. The Key to Friendship — CommunicationBWant to find a job?

If you want to try for a job in Fairmont Hotel, you _________ .A. have to be a woman and know foreign languagesB. should be a university graduateC. have to be taller than 1.72 metersD. should be younger than 30 years oldCThe iPhone, the iPad: each of Apple’s products sounds cool and has become a fad(一时的风尚). Apple has clever ly taken advantage of the power of the letter “i” –-- and many other brands are following suit. The BBC’s iPlayer --- which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet ---used the title in 2008. A lovely bear --- popular in the US and UK --- that plays music and video is called “iTeddy”. A slimmed-down version(简装本) of London’s Independent newspaper was started last week under the name “i”.In general, single-letter prefixes(前缀) have been popular since the 1990s, when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce(电子商务) first came into use.Most “i” products are targeted at （针对）young people and considering the major readers of Independent’s “i”, it’s no surprise that they’ve selected this fashionable name.But it’s hard to see what’s so special about the letter “i”. Why not use “a”, “b”, or “c” instead? According to Tony Thorne, head of the Language Center at King’s College, London, “i” works because its meaning has become ambiguous. When Apple uses “i”, no one knows whether it means Internet, information, indi vidual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. “Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didn’t have one clear definition（定义）,” he says.“However, thanks to Apple, the term is now connected with portability (轻便) .”adds Thorne.Clearly the letter “i” also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual. Each person believes they have their own needs, and we love personalized products for this reason.Along with “Google” and “blog”, readers of BBC Magazines voted “i” as one o f the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade(十年).But as history shows, people grow tired of fads. From the 1900s to 1990s, products with “2000” in their names became fashionable as the year was connected with all things advanced and modern. However, as we entered the new century, the fashion disappeared.8. People use iPlayer to __________.A. listen to musicB. make a callC. watch TV programs onlineD. read newspapers9. We can infer that the Independent’s “i” is designed for _________.A. young readersB. old readersC. fashionable womenD. engineers10. The underlined word “ambiguous” means “__________”.A. popularB. uncertainC. clearD. unique11. Nowadays, the “i” term often reminds people of the products which are __________.A. portableB. environmentally friendlyC. advancedD. recyclable12. The writer suggests that __________.A. “i” products are often of high qualityB. iTeddy is alive bearC. the letter “b” replaces letter “i” to name the productsD. the popularity of “i” products may not last long第二节（共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AOn Christmas Eve─the night before Christmas Day─children all over Britain put a stocking at the end of their beds before they go to sleep. Their parents usually tell them that Father Christmas will come during the night.Father Christmas is very kind and hearted. He gets to the top of each house and climbs down the chimney into the fireplace. He fills each of the stockings with Christmas presents.Of course, Father Christmas isn't real. In Jim and Kate's house, "Father Christmas" is really Mr Green. Mr Green doesn't climb down the chimney. He waits until the children are asleep. Then he quietly goes into their bedrooms and fills their stockings with small presents. When they were very young, Mr Green sometimes wore a red coat. But he doesn't do that now. The children are no longer young, and they know who "Father Christmas" really is. But they still put their stockings at the end of their beds.1. Father Christmas often puts presents ________A. into children's hatsB. into children's stockingsC. under children's bedsD. into children's shoes2 .Father Christmas comes into the house through the ________A. chimneyB. back doorC. front doorD. window.3 .When the children are older, they _________A. know that Father Christmas is realB. ask their mother to fill their stockings with presentsC. know that who Father Christmas really isD. know that Father Christmas is really their friendBWhen I looked at the grade on my math paper, my jaw(下巴) almost dropped to the ground: a big “65” in bright red ink. As a good student in my teachers’ eyes, I had never received such a terrible grade before.I was so ashamed(羞愧的) that when I got home that afternoon I lied to my dad. I told him I got 85 and that the report wouldn’t come until the end of the month. Dad smiled. His daughter wou ld never lie about her grade, so he didn’t doubt the unusual delay(延迟) of my report at all.A month later, Dad casually asked me again about the report at the dinner table. He looked right into my eyes and asked for an answer. Having no choice, I told him that I had in fact got just 65 in my math final. I had lied because I didn’t want to let him down.For a moment, he just looked at me. I would have preferred a telling off than that silence. Finally, Dad said, in a hurt voice, “You have already let me down, with your lie. I am not disappointed(失望的) at your math score. That is no big deal –no one can be perfect all the time. However, I am very disappointed in you. If you can’t be honest with your dad, who can you be honest with? It’s much easier to achieve a better grade than rebuild someone else’s trust in you.”Dad’s words touched my heart. I couldn’t forgive myself for having hurt his feelings. I took out the report that I had been hiding for weeks, handed to him and said sorry to him, sincerely. My father smiled and touched my head gently, “I’m glad you understand that.” At that time, I realized that my honesty is not only important to me personally, but to those around me that truly care about my happiness.In one of Shakespeare’s plays a character says: “No legacy(遗产) is so rich as honesty.” After the crisis between Dad and me, I began to understand those words.4. How did the writer feel when she saw the grade on her math paper?A. SurprisedB. HappyC. ExcitedD. Proud5. Why did the writer lie to her father?A. Because she liked telling lies.B. Because her father would beat her.C. Because she didn’t want to make her father happy.D. Because she didn’t want to make her father disappointed.6.

Honesty is more important than other legacies.D. Honesty is not so important as other legacies.7. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Grades Don’t Mean EverythingB. My Beloved FatherC.

山东省济宁市育才中学2015-2016学年高一上学期第一次月考试卷第一卷100分第一部分：听力（30分）略第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题，满分30分）ANot long ago, a good friend of mine asked me to help him in a halfway house in Nashville. I agreed and made my way there one evening.When I got there, I sat with my friend and talked about how he ended up there. As we talked, another man came up, lighting up his cigarette as he sat down. He had dark, leather skin, and looked like he had endured the sun, the rain, and the wind for long, long time. I couldn’t tell how old he was, but i was sure that he was younger than he looked.Through a bit of conversation, i found out that he had been on the streets for many, many years.Without my asking, he started describing life as a homeless man. How he got food; hoe he stayed warm; how he got money. And he told me something that caught my attention.He said, “You want to know how i keep my stuff safe at night?”“Sure, “ I replied.“I put it up in the trees.”“Why is it safe in the trees?” I asked.“The homeless are always looking for treasure on the ground--- coins, something someone’s dropped, half-smoked cigarettes. I know if I put my stuff in the trees, they’ll never find it because they never look up. Never. “Profound words from an unexpected place. And his message is for all of us.We all have our particular search. We’re looking for treasure on this earth. But what we are REALL Y looking for is right there above us. There’s really nothing we need on the ground.In fact, it’s surrounding us.21.What did the author go to Nashville for?A.To help his friend.B.To build a halfway house.C.To visit a stranger.D.To pick up a homeless man.22.The underlined word “endured” in Paragraph 2 means _________ .A.EnjoyedB.sharedC.SufferedD.expected23.The homeless man hid his things in the trees because________A.nobody could climb up the treesB.there was a hole in the treeC.The leaves of the trees were thickD.the homeless never looked up24.From what the homeless man said, the author learned thatA.We should look up for treasure in futureB.What we’re looking for is just by our sideC.There’s really nothing we need on the groundD.It is wrong to look for treasure on the groundBIf you move t o a new school, you’ll have to worry whether or not you’ll make friends. Here are some simple suggestions which help you make new friends a lot easier.◇Try speaking to the people standing next to you in class. As they’re close by, it makes sense to commu nicate with them first.◇Have the courage to speak to everyone in your class. You will probably stay with that class through your years at the new school, so it helps if you get on with them.◇If you don’t have many friends in your class, try and make ne w friends in your subject lessons. You can also talk with them at lunchtime and after school.◇Join a lunchtime or after-school club. You’ll get to meet kids of all years that way.◇Ask your teacher to pair you with another pupil.◇Use your celebrity status(名人地位)! Since you’re the new person, you’ll have gained celebrity status, which you can use for a couple of weeks. Talk to people, remember to smile and always be open and friendly. Listen carefully to what others have to say so as to make them feel important.As you grow older, it’s natural to make new friends and sometimes that means you grow apart from your old friends. So try and make time for all your friends. Why not introduce your different sets of friends so you can all go to the cinema or go bowling together?But what if a friendship group is pushing you out? If this is happening to you, try and ask someone you’re friendly with what is happening. If the whole group is leaving you out, try to find new people to spend time with atlunchtime.25. According to the writer, what should we do when we move to a new school?A. Sit close to friendly classmates.B. Try our best to help our classmates.C. Take possible chances to communicate with others.D.

What should we do if a friendship group is pushing us out?A. Turn to the teacher for help.B. Forget them at once and make new friends.C. Try to find out the reason.D. Make our different sets of friends know each other.28. What is the writer’s pu rpose of writing the text?A. To introduce how to communicate with friends.B. To show how to get used to new school life.C. To encourage people to make new friends.D. To explain how to make new friends easily.CYELLOWSTONE AND GRAND TETON MULTISPORT TOURIn six extraordinary days, we discover waterfalls, wild animals, and natural hot springs in Yellowstone. In the Tetons, we rock climb, bike in wildness and raft the Snake River’s fun-filled rapids.Day 1:Bridge-Teton---Upper Geyser BasinRide a bicycle through Bridge-Teton National Forest.

Rafting31.The tourists can decide to join in different activities on ___________.A. Day 1 and Day 2B. Day 2 and Day 3C. Day 4 and Day 5D. Day 5 and Day 6DSome of my friends are making big decisions in their life: Which universities should they apply to? I also notice that many high school students in China are thinking of studying at universities abroad. Unluckily, fr om what I’veseen, the information given by some websites and other media about studying abroad is very limited and sometimes even wrong.There was once a Chinese girl who hoped that she could go to Columbia University in the US because she wanted t o major in journalism. However, they have no journalism program at the undergraduate level! What’s more,in both Canada and the US,it’s not suggested that students throw themselves into journalism right after high school.School say that students should take in more knowledge about the world and writing before entering that field.The University of Waterloo, a Canadian university famous for its engineering program, is another example.The emphasis (重视)of engineering in this school may go beyond your expectations. According to our teachers, this university spent millions of dollars building a library just for engineering students. The school’s computer science, mathematics and accounting are also great programs for students.But, to be honest, according to my friends who have visited this university, the campus and the food are not very ni ce. Maybe this is because the school stresses its academic( 学术)strengths too much, thereby paying little attention to personal comforts.Now you see, choosing a university is really not that easy. We need to do good research and consult as many people as possible before making a decision.32.Who can major in journalism program in Columbia University?A. Chinese girls.B. High school studentsC. Graduates.D. Undergraduates.33.From Paragraphs 3 and 4 we can learn in the University of Waterloo _______.A.the engineering program is as famous as computer scienceB.engineering students are the most intelligentC.the library for engineering students is very goodD.the campus is very small and dirty34.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.The information provided by some websites is always useful.B.In Canada, students can major in journalism right after high school.C.The University of Waterloo stresses the academic strengths and personal comforts.D.Doing good research is necessary before making a decision.35.What’s the best title for the passage?A.How to study at universities abroad.B.Choosing a university is not easy.C.A Chinese girl and Columbia University.D.Academic strengths of the University of Waterloo.第二节（共5题，10分）Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, and you are speaking quite fluently. _ _71First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. _ 72 The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from . The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated （受阻）by limited understanding. __ 73__Here is some of the advice I give my students:●Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.●Stay relaxed when you do not understand, and try listening to the material for more times.● Do not translate everything into your native language.● __74___ Don’t concentrate on details before you have understood the main ideas.● Listen to something you enjoy.I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn’t understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. 75 Firstly, translating creates a barrier between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that ev en if I didn’t pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said.A. What should you do?B. Listen for the general idea of the conversation.C. But you can’t follow a native English speaker at all!D. So, what you need to do is to find listening resources.E. However, after several weeks, I got used to the new environment in Germany.F. But listening is a problem for most of the beginners!G. Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts.第三部分完形填空（共20题，满分30分）While I was out for breakfast with my 23-year-old son, he told me about an experience he had earlier in the week.

He set off, walking towards the king’s castle. After many years of walking, the king’s castle came into his view. However, as the boy drew closer to the outside of the castle, the guards noticed him.“Get out of here!” ordered the guards.Well, the little boy didn’t have to be told twice. He turned…and ran. All he wanted to do was to tell the king wonderful things, and see all the beautiful things in the king’s house. But he couldn’t even get near the castle! The boy finally stopped running, sat down and cried.A young man happened to be coming down the path at the very moment. He saw the little boy and stopped. “What’s wrong, young man?” he asked.“Sir, I walked and walked just to see the king. But these guards made me scared. I wanted to tell the king how lovely everything is and just tell the king that I just wanted to see him.!”The man looked at the little boy thoughtfully. “Look, why don’t you try again. I’ll come with you this time.”The little boy got up and took the man’s hand. The king’s guards spotted them.“Look, mister, we don’t have to do this…I don’t want you to get hurt. We can just turn around now.”The man held the little boy’s hand and went on. The boy really thought the man might be crazy until he looked back up at the guards. They were all smiling now.

In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded (要求) the most discipline (纪律) from their students.I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very vividly (清晰地) a sign over her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, “Laborato ry—in this room the first five letters of the word was emphasized (强调), not the last seven.” In other words, I guess, labor(工作) for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.She prepared her work very carefully and demanded of us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them.I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit (有益于) the students.8. Which of the following is considered a good teacher by the writer?A. A patient teacher.B. An honest teacher.C. A strict teacher.D. A hard-working teacher.9.

What’s the writer’s opinion of dis cipline?A. It makes the students dislike their teachers.B. It does good to the students in the long run.C. It’s too much for young children.D. It does more harm than good to the students.DWhat is the hottest topic at your school recently? In Taiyuan No.55 Middle School, it’s money.The school held an activity called “making money” last weekend. About 200 Junior 1 and Junior 2 students were divided into 30 teams. They went out to make money by selling things.What did they choose to sell? Some sold newspapers; some chose bottled water; some sold environmentally friendly shopping bags and bamboo baskets.Hu Qing’s team decided to sell some useful books in front of the Children Activity Center. They thought parents would like to buy the books for their children. But unfortunately, they met urban management officers (城管). The officers asked them to leave. “We played hide-and-seek (捉迷藏) with the officers for the whole morning” said Hu. “Finally we had to give up.”Wang Bing and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn’t meet any officers. But few people were interested in what they were selling. The team then put up a board saying “For Country Kids”. It worked. More people came to their stall (小摊). A foreigner even gave them 100 yuan. “He didn’t want any change. He said he wanted to help the children,” said Wang. “We were touched.” Later that day they gave the 100 yuan and more to the “Project Hope” office.Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours, spending 39.5 yuan and getting back 80 yuan. They made 40.5 yuan. “It was not easy to make the money,” said Meng. “Some people just looked. Others just tasted but didn’t buy. Now I know how hard it isfor our parents to make the money we need to lead happy lives.”12. ______ took part in the activity.A.

The poor ant almost exhausted(adj.精疲力竭的 ) was still bravely doing her best when a dove saw her. Moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. He would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. He stopped to see what had bit him, and the dove immediately flew away.

I‟ll never forget what she taught us. She said, “There are some secrets of staying young and being happy. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You must have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you will die. There is a huge difference between growing old and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn‟t need any talent or ability. To grow up, you must always find the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The people who are afraid of death are those with regrets.”At the end of the year, Rose finished her college. One week after graduation, Rose died peacefully in her sleep. We would always remember the great woman.根据短文内容，选择正确答案。

ADear Dad,Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together.I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart.You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear (档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn't have much tolerance for a stubborn 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's wishing that never had to end.I love you, Dad.Love,Jenny1.How did Jenny probably feel on the night she was sent home by the police?A. Disappointed.B. Nervous.C. Guilty.D. Frightened.2. We can learn from the passage that Jenny and her father_________.A. kept in touch by writing each otherB. are separated due to the generation gapC. have been getting along very wellD. had a hard time understanding each other3. Why did Jenny feel strange when she saw her father last week?.A. She seldom saw him driving that huge car.B.She had never realized his being old and weak.C. She didn't expect to meet with him there.D.She had never seen him driving so slowly before.4. Jenny wrote his father this letter to _________.A. tell him about their conflictsB. say sorry for her being stubbornC. express her gratitude to himD. remind him of the early incidentBHoney from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar，it is also delicious.Most people，and many animals，like eating it.However，the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it.Often，these nests are high up in trees，and it is difficult to find them.In parts of Africa，though，people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper－a little bird called a honey guide.The honey guide does not actually like honey，but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房)．The little bird cannot reach this wax，which is deep inside the bees' nest.So，when it finds a suitable nest，it looks for someone to help it.The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people.Once it has their attention，it flies through the forest，waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest.When they finally arrive at the nest，the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches.Some of the honey，and the wax，always falls to the ground，and this is when the honey guide takes its share.Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax，but it is very determined in its efforts to get it.The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away.They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives，and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.5．Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?A．It's small in size. B．It's hidden in trees.C．It's covered with wax. D．It's hard to recognize.6．What do the words “the follower” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．A bee. B．A bird.C．A honey seeker. D．A beekeeper.7．The honey guide is special in the way________．A．it gets its food B．it goes to churchC．it sings in the forest D．it reaches into bees'nests8．What can be the best title for the text?A．Wild Bees B．Wax and HoneyC．Beekeeping in Africa D．HoneyLover's HelperCIt was the end of my junior year, the weekend before prom (毕业舞会). I was riding with some friends, and a bottle was passed around the car. Everyone was taking swigs(一大口). When the bottle got to me, I thought:“What should I do?”I took a swig. It was the biggest mistake of my life. I had to drive home later that night.I went back to my car, got in and drove off. At a stop sign I saw a policeman sitting in the parking lot across the street. His headlights were turned on, and I knew he was going to follow me. Then he flashed his lights at me. All I could think was: “Oh no, that swig!”I pulled over and waited for him to come to my door. It felt like forever. “Can I see your license and registration, please, Miss?” I gave them to him. He took them and went back to his car for a while. When he returned, he asked if I had been drinking.“No,” I said. He asked me to step out of my car.“Walk heel to toe down the white line, please.” I passed the test. Next he had me stand on my left foot, lift my right foot and hold it for 30 seconds. I’m not the mostcoordinated (动作协调的) person and I can’t even walk and chew gum at the same time, so, needless to say, I didn’t pass. Then he asked me to take a breathalyzer test.That was where I messed up. I told him I didn’t want to and didn’t understand why I had to. The officer asked me three more times, and I continued to refuse. He told me to turn around and place my hands behind my back. He arrested me right then and there.The policeman drove me to a police station 20 minutes from my home. He called my parents and told them where I was.I went to court two months after that, charged with refusing to obey an officer. I got a $700 (4,340 yuan) fine and 40 hours of community service. I’ll be on probation (缓刑) for a year, and I’ll have to take the driving test again. I lost my license for a whole year.This was a huge learning experience for me. It opened my eyes to how easy it is to make a stupid decision. I want everyone reading this to know that it’s not right to drink and drive. It definitely isn’t worth losing your license over.9.From the first paragraph, we can conclude that the author __________.A. didn’t remember she had to drive home later when riding with her friendsB. wished she had refused to drink that nightC. felt just one mouthful would not affect her drivingD. lost her driving license on the way10.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A. The author was in jail for 40 hours and had to do community service.B. The author thought her punishment shouldn’t be so serious.C. The author was really sorry that she had made a serious mistake.D. The author believed she would have avoided punishment if she had obeyed thepoliceman.11.What is the main purpose of the article?A. To warn people against driving after drinking.B. To explain how policemen test drivers.C. To show that severe punishment works.D. To blame the author’s thoughtless friends.DIf you need glasses to read this, you are among the majority of Chinese students. That’s because most students in China are short-sighted which means they can only see things close up and distant things will be blurry. Four-fifths of high school students wear glasses and now more and more children in primary school need glasses, too.This epidemic of poor eyesight has two very simple causes: too much time spent indoors studying and too little time spent outdoors playing. Reading and writing for hours and hours, sometimes in poorly lighted rooms, causes eyesight to weaken. But students have to do this because there is so much pressure on them to succeed in school. And because they spend so much time indoors at school and at home, they have less time to spend outdoors enjoying the sun.The sun, as a consequence, is important in developing good eyesight. Exposure to daylight releases a chemical in the eyes that prevents, or at least delays, short-sightedness. According to a study by Ian Morgan of Australian National University, Australian children and Chinese children have the same level of eyesight before they start school, but once they enter primary school, Chinese children only spend about an hour a day outside, while Australian children spend three to four hours each day in the sunshine. The result is that while about 40 percent of Chinese primary school students need glasses, only three percent of Australian children do.Wearing glasses may not seem like a big deal. For some, wearing glasses can even bean opportunity to make a fashion statement. But poor eyesight at a young age can have serious long term consequences. As you get older, your eyesight can worsen and lead to things like macular degeneration(黄斑变性), a condition of the eyes for which there is no cure and which can eventually lead to blindness.With all that in mind, don’t you think it’s time to give your eyes a break? Try spending a little less time inside and go for a walk in the park, instead. It’s the healthy thing to do and your eyes will thank you for it.12.What does the underlined word “blurry”mean?A. unpopular.B. unpleasant.C. unclear.D. unconscious.13.How should the students protect their eyesight according to the passage?A. They should study less and less.B. They should stay longer outdoors.C. They should wear sun-glasses.D. They should have a longer rest in bed.14.It can be inferred from the passage that _____ is to blame for the poor eyesight ofChinese children.A. the ever-worsening bad weatherB. the ever-increasing burden of studyC. the ever-decreasing sunny daysD. the ever-decreasing period of study time15.What is the purpose of this article?A. To explain why Chinese students are poor-sighted.B. To admire Aust ralian children’s good eyesight.C. To criticize the present education system.D. To call on people to protect Chinese children’s eyesight第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the (44)________ (probable) you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want— an end to the relationship.The good news is (45)_________ most troubled friendships can be mende d. First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, (46)_________(apologize) when you’re wrong --– (47)______ _____ you’ve been wronged. Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyle change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy.

My suggestion: Consider friendship (48)_________ honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture (培养).（B）Fear (49)__________ be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting（收缩）and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point (50)________ the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggested that the heart is able to influence (51)___________ the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Me dical School said, “Our study show for the first time that the way (52)___________ we deal with fear is different, depending on when we seefearful pictures in relation to our heart.The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping (53)_________ when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don’t see — and guid e whether we see fear.”(54)_________ (understand) this relationship further, the scientists also used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear. “So far we (55)___________(find) an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’ to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear” Dr. Garfinkel said. “We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety, disorders, and also for (56)__________ who are suffering from serious stress disorder.”Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can onlyWalking, if you do it vigorously enough, is the overall best exercise for regular physical activity. It requires no equipment, everyone knows how to do it and it carries the 57 risk of injury. The human body is designed to walk. You can walk in parks or along a river or in your neighborhood. To get 58 benefit from walking, aim for 45 minutes a day, an average of five days a week.Strength training is another important 59 of physical activity. Its purpose is to build and 60 bone and muscle mass, both of which shrink with age. In general, you will want to do strength training two or three days a week, 61 recovery days between sessions.Finally, flexibility and balance training are 62 important as the body ages. Aches and pains are high on the list of complaints in old age. The result of constant muscle tension and stiffness of joints, many of them are 63 , and simple flexibility training can 64 these by making muscles stronger and keeping joints lubricated (润滑). Some of this you do whenever you stretch. If you watch dogs and c ats, you’ll get an idea of how natural it is.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The responsibilities of job, home and family all too often transform the daily routine into a huge burden. Enjoying quality leisure time becomes 67 .True leisure means engaging in a 68 and rewarding activity without being 69by other aspects of your life. Sometimes, the 70 you experience during the week make you place great emphasis on weekends and other days off. You hope to relax, but the stress is 71 . You can't rest even when you have the time to do so. When time is limited, leisure activities are usually the first items to 72 from the daily schedule.If you routinely 73 your leisure time because you have "more important things to do," you may be underestimating how much time the things 74 take. Most people routinely shortchange themselves on the amount of time required to complete a given task. The problem is a 75 to evaluate performance honestly.76 , simplifying your life will let you have more windows of opportunity to do stuff just for fun. Maybe you need to relearn to relax.Spare Time for Your 77 : Devote one afternoon or evening per week 78 to doing something that you enjoy, listening to music, assembling a jigsaw puzzle. Do whatever you always wish to but never seem to find time for. And do it where there's nothing to remind you of other 79 .Choose Low-Tech: The popular fascination with technological advances in all areas of life has diverted(偏离) attention from the simple pleasures of many 80 pastimes.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Here is one of the w orld’s largest indoor ski-slopes. It covers an area of 22,500m2, about the same size as three football fields, and the temperature is a constant -1℃to -2℃. However, the strangest thing about this place is that it’s in the middle of the desert! It’s called Ski Dubai and the outside temperature s can rise to more than 40℃!It sounds crazy, but it just shows how serious people are about having fun. We spend huge sums on sports facilities. We pay our sports stars ridiculous amounts of money. And we spend hour after hour playing games! I wonder if all the sports - lovers and game - players in the world aren’t a little crazy. I know I am. I was once drivin g past a football field where some kids were playing. I turned to watch and crashed my car. I know it’s stupid but I can do nothing about it. As someone said, “Football isn’t a matter of life and death. It’s much more important than that!”Of course, it i sn’t that important really. No game is. But the problem is that games are addictive. From the tennis court to the golf course, you’ll find participants and spectators who can’t live without the drug of their choice. It could be a good thing. After all, despite being addictive, it’s true that sports and games help us to relax. Maybe if it wasn’t for sport, our societies would be more violent. Perhaps sport is a substitute for war? It’s hard to think of a quieter, more peaceful game than chess, and what’s the objective? Capturing your opponent’s king, and surely, it’s better to have wars in athletics stadiums rather than on battlefields.What’s more, playing is natural. Kittens chase balls of wool and puppies pretend to fight. Games help us perfect ours kills and prepare us for the serious contest of survival.But do all games help us relax and stay away from violence? What about computer games? A recent article in New Scientist suggest s that playing violent video games (and most of them are extremely violent) makes people more aggressive and more likely to commit violent crimes.Are these games a rehearsal for life or a substitute for life? Do we play instead of facing up to our real problems? I don’t know. But what I do know is that I need a break, something to help me relax. Skiing would be nice. I wonder how much it costs to get to Dubai?82. According to the author, the most surprising thing about Ski Dubai is its _____.A. slopesB. sizeC. locationD. facilities83. The expression “the drug of their choice” in the 3rd paragraph refers to _____.A. the game they are keen onB. the medicine they takeC. the activity good for healthD. the sport in place of war84. Which of the following statements does the author most probably agree with?A. Sports stars should be paid more to play well.B. Sports are more important than life and death.C. Chess is too peaceful to be considered a sport.D. Games can make one relaxed as well as violent.85. What does the author mainly talk about in the passage ?A. The relationship between games and crimes .B. Human natural craze for having fun with games.C. Serious concerns about time that is spent on games.D. Real problems facing game players in everyday life.(B)Across the rich world, well-educated people increasingly work longer than the less-skilled. Some 65% of American men aged 62-74 with a professional degree are in the workforce, compared with 32% of men with only a high-school certificate. This gap is part of a deepening divide between the well-education well off and the unskilled poor. Rapid technological advance has raised the incomes of the highly skilled while squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individual and society, are profound.The world is facing as astonishing rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those aged 65 or more will almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity (长寿)translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth, while the swelling ranks of pensioners will create government budget problems.But the notion of a sharp division between the working young and the idle old misses a new trend, the growing gap between the skilled and the unskilled. Employment rates are falling among younger unskilled people, whereas older skilled folk are working longer. The divide is most extreme in America, where well-educated baby-boomers are putting off retirement while many less-skilled younger people have dropped out of the workforce.That even the better-off must work longer to have a comfortable retirement. But the changing nature of work also plays a big role. Pay has risen sharply for the highly educated, and those people continue to reap rich rewards into old age because these days the educated elderly are more productive than the preceding generation. Technological change may well reinforce that shift: the skills that complement computers, from management knowhow to creativity. Do not necessarily decline with age.86、what is happening in the workforce in rich countries?A. younger people are replacing the elderlyB. well-educated people tend to work longerC. unemployment rates are rising year after yearD. people with no college degree do not easily find work87、what do many observers predict in view of the experience of the 20th century?A. Economic growth will slow down.B. Government budgets will increase.C. More people will try to pursue higher educationD. There will be more competition in the job market.88、What is the result of policy changes in European countries?A. Unskilled workers may choose to retire early.B. more people have to receive in-service training.C. Even wealthy people must work longer to live comfortably in retirement.D. People may be able to enjoy generous defined-benefits from pension plans.89、What is characteristic of work in the 21st century?A. Computers will do more complicated work.B. More will be taken by the educated young.C. Most jobs to be done will be creative ones.D. Skills are highly valued regardless of age.(C)At the heart of the debate over illegal immigration lies one key question: are immigrants good or bad for the economy? The American public overwhelmingly thinks they're bad. Yet the consensus among most economists is that immigration, both legal and illegal, provides a small net boost to the economy. Immigrants provide cheap labor, lower the prices of everything from farmproduce to new homes, and leave consumers with a little more money in their pockets. So why is there such a discrepancy between the perception of immigrants' impact on the economy and the reality?There are a number of familiar theories. Some argue that people are anxious and feel threatened by an inflow of new workers. Others highlight the strain that undocumented immigrants place on public services, like schools, hospitals, and jails. Still others emphasize the role of race, arguing that foreigners add to the nation's fears and insecurities. There's some truth to all these explanations, but they aren't quite sufficient.To get a better understanding of what's going on, consider the way immigration's impact is felt. Though its overall effect may be positive, its costs and benefits are distributed unevenly. David Card, an economist at UC Berkeley, notes that the ones who profit most directly from immigrants' low-cost labor are businesses and employers – meatpacking plants in Nebraska, for instance, or agricultural businesses in California. Granted, these producers' savings probably translate into lower prices at the grocery store, but how many consumers make that mental connection at the checkout counter? As for the drawbacks of illegal immigration, these, too, are concentrated. Native low-skilled workers suffer most from the competition of foreign labor. According to a study by George Borjas, a Harvard economist, immigration reduced the wages of Americanhigh-school dropouts by 9% between 1980-2000.Among high-skilled, better-educated employees, however, opposition was strongest in states with both high numbers of immigrants and relatively generous social services. What worried them most, in other words, was the fiscal (财政的)burden of immigration. That conclusion was reinforced by another finding: that their opposition appeared to soften when that fiscal burden decreased, as occurred with welfare reform in the 1990s, which curbed immigrants' access to certain benefits.The irony is that for all the overexcited debate, the net effect of immigration is minimal. Even for those most acutely affected – say, low-skilled workers, or California residents – the impactisn't all that dramatic. "The unpleasant voices have tended to dominate our perceptions," says Daniel Tichenor, a political science professor at the University of Oregon. "But when all those factors are put together and the economists calculate the numbers, it ends up being a net positive, but a small one." Too bad most people don't realize it.90.

In the passage there are four sentences missing. Choose the best one from the six sentences.ForgivenessTo forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.____1____ Try the following steps:Calm yourself. ____2____ You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.Don't wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way. If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time. Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.____4____ If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender's point of view.Don't forget to forgive yourself. ____5____ But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don't do it.A. Why should you forgive?B. How should you start to forgive?C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.D. Try to see things from your offender's angle.E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.Section DBased on the following passage and write a summaryFinancial setbacks in the form of pay cuts are having a trickle-down effect(涓滴效应) as the depression persists. Families across America are cutting or even axing kids’ allowance (零用钱) to reflect what’s going on with household finances and the economy as a whole .Some jobless parents are doing it out of necessity .Other parents are using allowance adjustments to teach children about economic realities and how to budget in leaner times.“Try to use relevant news to explain the reasons behind the depression and how it’s hitting home. If they see it obvious in their own allowance, they’ll feel the impact and see how it all ties in,”says financial consultant Antwone Harris.Any reduction in allowance should be understood in age-appropriate communication, says Dr. Tony Meyer, a child psychiatrist(精神科医生) and medical director of Aurora Psychiatric Hospital. Six to 12-year-olds are mature enough for a frank talk, but don’t set them back with a lot of details. It’s sufficient to say their allowance is lower because Mom and Dad is getting paid less at work ,so there’s less money for the family to spend. With 12 to 18-year-olds, you can broaden the discussion to include the banking crisis and other factors that contributed to the depression, Meyer says. Younger kids have the idea that they’re at the center of things, and adolescents by nature are especially self-concerned . “They’ll think they’re responsible, ”Meyer says.A cut in allowance might seem punishing, so the message that the child is not at fault needs to come across. Depending on the child’s age, “You can also ask them to bring some income by working a job or helping more around the house so Mom or Dad can work more,” he says. Kids。

河北省故城县高级中学2015-2016学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题考试范围：Units1--2 考试时间：120分钟学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________考号：二．阅读理解（每小题2分）AI never had friends at school because of my colourful clothes I always wore. My parents always said，“If you want to have friends，you have to be a friend.” I did that，but it didn't work.I was still ignored. I didn't want it to be the same way this year.It was the first day of school when I knew it. I got dressed，packed my lunch，and walked to the bus stop. I sat in the cold air，with my nose feeling more like a snowflake(雪花)．Then，the bus slowly pulled up. The door opened，and I saw many eyes staring at me. I walked to theback of the bus. As I passed the other kids，they would whisper and laugh. The bus trip seemed to take forever before we reached the school. When we arrived，I walked to my classroom and sat at the desk in the very back of the classroom. It wasn't that I disliked school，but I wasn't a big fan of the kids at school. I enjoyed listening to the teacher talk，but I didn't like it when the bell rang for lunch. I hid in the crowd of kids，and walked to an empty table. I opened my lunch bag，and began to eat uncomfortably. A girl with long red hair came over to my table and sat down. I got scared，but she had a friendly smile on her face.“What's your name？” she asked.“Rachel，” I whispered.“I am Monica，” she said. She kept talking to me，and I talked to her a little bit.“No one likes me，” I said after a while of dead silence.“I do，” she replied.“I learned after a while of being lonely that you have to be friends with people that look lonely too. Then，no one will ever be lonely in this world，” she said.Ever since those words have been said to me，I have lots of true friends. I will never forget the day my friend gave me advice that would last a lifetime.（21）In the eyes of other kids，the clothes Rachel wore were ______.A. beautifulB. strangeC. expensiveD. fit（22）Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?A. Rachel didn't like talking with other kids.B. Rachel used to expect the class to be over quickly.C. Rachel was tired of learning at school.D. Rachel wasn't very popular at school.（23）What lesson did Rachel learn in the end?A. We can live without a brother，but not without a friend.B. Making friends with lonely people makes a happier world.C. A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.D. A friend is never known.B“Tipping”(给小费) is always a difficult business. You do not want to give too much or toolittle，or tip the wrong person.In Britain and America，people usually tip waiters in restaurants，porters，taxi drivers and hairdressers. They do not tip people in offices，cinemas，garages or airports.Do you invite your friend to the restaurant？Then you pay the bill. Does your friend invite you？Your friend pays. If there are men and women in the party，the men usually pay.These days，men and women are equal in many ways. If you work in Britain or America，your boss could be a man or a woman. There are increasing numbers of women in important positions in politics，law，medicine and in the business world. But it is still polite for men to open doors for women and to ask them to go first. And it is polite for men to stand up when they are introduced to women.（24）In this passage，the writer tells us ______.A. not to give any tip to othersB. only to give tip to womenC. only to give tip in restaurantsD. to give tip to the right person（25）If you have had a meal with your friend in a restaurant，______.A.you should pay the billB.your friend should pay the billC.the person who invites the other person should pay the billD.you should ask your friend to pay the bill（26）Today in Britain and America ______.A.women are completely equal to menB.men hold all the important positions in politicsC.women hold all the important positions in businessD.women have changed their conditions in many ways（27）It is impolite for a man to ______.A.open a door for a woman and to go first himselfB.stand beside a womanC.let a woman go firstD.stand up when he is introduced to a womanCDogs are man's best friends. This everyday saying may contain some truth，but dogs are not the only animal friends that people like. For example，cats can be excellent house pets，too.People enjoy the friendship of cats. Cats love to keep close to their owners. Cats are quite playful. They love to run after balls，or play with anything hanging from a string. They especially enjoy playing when their owners play the game with them. Just like a dog，a cat can be trained to perform tricks（诡计）or avoid unwanted behaviour.Cats do not have to be walked. They get plenty of exercise in the house as they play，and they do their business in their litter boxes. So their owners only need to spend time cleaning their litter boxes. Washing a cat is almost never necessary because cats usually clean themselves. In addition，cats can be left alone at home for a few hours without any worry.Unlike some pets，most cats will not destroy the furniture when left alone. They just go about their usual activities until their owners return.Cats are polite members of a family. Unlike dogs，cats do not make lots of loud noise. They walk very quietly. Also，cat s don't often have “accidents”．Mother cats train their babies to use the litter box，and most cats will use it from that time on. Cats keep their energy by sleeping more than most animals，especially as they grow older.（28）From the passage，we can learn that ______.A.cats would rather play with themselvesB.cats often play tricks on their ownersC.many people think dogs are man's best friendsD.cats sleep less than any other animal does（29）What can be concluded（推断）from the passage?A.Cats are very easy to be kept as house pets.B.Cats need more time to do exercise than dogs.C.Cats are afraid of being left alone at home.D.Cats don't like to clean themselves.（30）In the fourth paragraph，we can learn that cats are ______.A.playfulB.cuteC.politeD.noisy（31）Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?A.B.C.D.DTom saw an advertisement in a newspaper for a beautiful，modern bicycle which cost ￡54.99，so he went to the shop which had put up the advertisement and asked to see one of their beautiful bicycles. The shopkeeper was happy to show one to Tom. He examined it carefully and then turned to the shopkeeper，saying：“There is not a lamp on the bicycle，but there was one on the bicycle in your advertisement.”“Yes，sir，”answered the shopkeeper，“But the lamp isn't included in the price of the bicycle. It is an extra.”“Not included in the price of the bicycle！”Tom said angrily，“But that's not honest. If the lamp is in the advertisement，it should have been i ncluded in the price you gave there.”“Well，sir，”answered the shopkeeper calmly.“There is also a beautiful girl on the bicycle in our advertisement，but we don't supply one of them with the bicycle either.”（32）The story most probably takes place in ______.A.AmericaB.BritainC.RussiaD.Japan（33）The shopkeeper was happy to show a bicycle to Tom because ______.A.Tom was the first customer who came to buy the bicycleB.Tom examined the bicycle carefullyC.anoth er bicycle might be soldD.the bicycle was wonderful（34）After the shopkeeper said that the lamp was an extra，Tom was angry because ______.A.the lamp was expensiveB.the shopkeeper was impolite to say soC.he thought he was cheatedD.the bicycle wasn't beautiful without a lamp（35）What do you think would probably be the result?A.Tom left the shop angrily without buying a bicycle.B.Tom bought a bicycle without a lamp.C.Tom bought a bicycle with a girl on it.D.Tom bought a bicycle with a lamp on it.七选五下面是一篇文章，请将标有A～F的句子或段落插入文章标号1～5的合适位置，使这篇文章意义完整，结构连贯；其中有一个句子或段落是多余的。

What about 10? 100? Brick Fest Live, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, took those numbers and multiplied them by thousands. Families traveled from all over the country to attend this three-day event, which included LEGO car races, mini-golf courses(球场) made of LEGO bricks, and LEGO models of the city of Philadelphia. While attendees were observing fantastic creations and making their own, they may not have realized just how much knowledge they were gaining.LEGO bricks are fun and creativity-developing toys. They also have connections to STEM topics. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Chad Collins and his daughter, Jordan, are producers of Brick Fest Live. “When you play with LEGO, it wires your brain in a certain way, helping you solve problem s,” Collins said.The Philly Bick Fest Live is a look-and-touch experience, encouraging kids and families to make their own creations. People of all ages flocked to Philadelphia to witness brick Fest Live. Attendees could play a round of LEGO mini golf, buy LEGO items, make their own creations, play video games and view large-scale creations by other LEGO enthusiasts. “We want to inspire, educate and entertain,” Collins said.Brick Fest Live began in April 2012, when Chad Collins and Jordan decided to start a YouTube channel. They looked around for LEGO events in the area, but none existed. So they decided to create their own. The first Brick Fest Live brought in 24,000 people, much more than expected.Where will Brick Fest Live head to next? From September 19-21, Brick Fest Live will take place in Baltimore, Maryland. Then it travels to Cincinnati, Ohio in October and West Palm, Florida in December. Brick Fest Live comes back to Philadelphia each spring. You can visit for more information.5.

To tell us when the Philly Brick Fest Live will be held again.CIt was the afternoon of December 24, the day before Christmas; and as the newest doctor in our office, I had to work. The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating—a dozen long-stemmed red roses.As I was cleaning my office, our receptionist came and said there was a lady in the front office that urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband—a prisoner in a nearby prisonwas my next patient. The guards were scheduled to bring him to the office that afternoon. She told me she wasn’t allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boy’s father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasn’t full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve.A short time later, her husband arrived—with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The woman’s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. While I worked, the guards stood just outside my door. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done t o be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas—a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn’t been able to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.I’ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. I’m not sure who experienced the most joy—the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.9．What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A. The writer was a newcomer to her office.B. A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.C. She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.D.She was at work with a light heart.10．The underlined part in paragraph 3 most probably means .A. to be sent to hospitalB. to be separated from his familyC. to be comfortableD. to become a prisoner11．What does the writer learn from the story?A. The wife experienced the most joy in receiving.B. Anact of kindness can mean a lot.C. The prisoner was treated with mercy.D. Whoever breaks the law should be punished.D TheInternet has become part of teenage life.A new report on 3,375 students aged from 10 to 18 in seven Chinese cities found that 38 percent of them believe they use the Internet often.While most of them get useful information and use the Internet to help in their studies, some are not using it in a good way.In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behaviour has started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools this term. The book uses real examples to teach students all about good ways of using the Internet. The book gives useful advice such as it’s good to read news or find helpful information to study.Some students also make online friends. But if you are meeting a friend offline, make sure your parents know. Teachers and parents all think the book is of great help. A teacher said the book would be a guide for teens using the Internet. She believes it will keep students away from bad sites. “Many students are using the Internet without guidance from their parent s,”she said. “The book will teach students how to be a good person in the online world.”12. The textbook mainly tells us .A. why we should use the InternetB. how to study using the InternetC. how to use the Internet correctlyD. how to get help from others13. What’s the attitude of teachers and parents towards the textbook?A. They are against it.B. They are for it.C. They don’t care about it.D. The passage doesn’t mention.14. According to the passage, teenagers are NOT encouraged to .A. read online newsB. go onlineC. find helpful information onlineD. meet a friend offline without letting their parents know15. From this passage we know that .A. more and more students have given up visiting bad websitesB. schools and teachers begin to pay attention to students’ use of the InternetC. no more homework will be given in Shanghai middle schoolsD. less and less information can be found online第二节（共5 小题；每小题2 分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2015-2016学年高三第一次月考英语试题第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节（共１５小题；每小题２分，满分３０分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（Ａ、Ｂ、Ｃ和Ｄ）中，选出最佳选项。

AI got tired of living the life that everybody told me I “should” be living, so one day I decided to start living life in my own ways. Frustrated（挫败）with my job, I came home, put on my shoes, and just started running. It felt so good to be free. That first day I ended up running 30 miles without stopping. Yes, I had rediscovered my old passion ( 酷爱的事物) — and it felt so good that I set a goal to support myself and my family from my running alone.I trained hard every day. Since I wanted to be the best I could be, I knew I would have to set some clear goals for myself. A couple of my goals were: run a 135-mile ultra-marathon(超级马拉松) across Death Valley, win the Badwater Ultra-Marathon, and run a marathon to the South Pole.I had no idea how I was going to achieve these goals, but they certainly encouraged me to work hard. Today, I am really grateful to say that I have achieved all of them. Shortly after completing these goals, I set another goal: to run fifty marathons, in fifty states, in fifty days. Nobody had done anything like this before. To be honest, I was not quite sure if I could. But there was only one way to find out…so I just started training and preparing to give it my best try.I completed that goal one year ago, and it felt great! But for me, life is not all about achieving goals. Sure, it feels good to succeed, but the greatest reward for me was learning more about myself and what I was able to do.Only by stepping out into the unknown and stretching(使倾注全力) ourselves can we really discover what our true potential(潜能) is。

高一年级第一学期第一次月考英语试题

高一年级第一学期第一次月考英语试题第一部分阅读理解从A,B,C,D 选项中选择正确的一项，填入答题卡。

（2.5分*12=30分）AToday the word friendship has been used so often that it has lost its meaning. Some jokingly or seriously say that friends are made to be used. It makes me very sad.True friendship doesn't mean that when you need your friend's help, you will treat him to dinner, and when you have to protect yourself, you will put your friends in a difficult situationIn fact, true friendship is the communication and understanding of the hearts.True friendship is like water. It is known to all that water is important in our life.It is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don't need to be with each other every day,but are connected in heart every minute.True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter, it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize you when others have a good word for you,not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head.True friendship has nothing to do with fame,power or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential,but come to you whenever you need their help. You're not his stepping-stone to success,but are his crutch (拐杖;支持物）to live through difficulties.True friends make you complete. Many persons go along with you through your life-your parents,your spouse (配偶),and your children,who take care of you and make your life happy. However,you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them,you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.True friends stay in your heart,rather than at your side;they know you more than yourself,and try to better you.1.The writer feels sad because some peopleA.don't understand friendshipB.make wrong friendsC.don't have friendsD.blame their friends2. The writer speaks of water becauseA.it is easy to getB.it has no tasteC.it stays with us every dayD.it is important to our life3. The underlined word“influential"in Paragraph 6 means _________A.helpfulB.quietC.powerfulD.busy4. According to the passage,true friends may help you____________A.enjoy mental healthB.live a happy lifeC.achieve successD.understand them betterBYou may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Maybe your friends from middle school are going to a different high school. Even if you know other freshmen(新生),you still feel nervous that you don’t know any upperclassmen. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces?Most high schools hold freshman orientation(迎新会) before school actually starts. It is helpful not only because you learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but you also get to meet fellow freshmen. That way. when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.When you talk to pe ople at orientation, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are They re all new to the school and don't know what to expect,Talking about a common concern with your classmates can help you develop friendshipsThe work in high school is something freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learned in middle school, giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it's a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult teachers can give you extra help.High school also has more after-school activities that middle school did, such as clubs, music and theater group and sports teams. This is a good time to explore yourinterests and try new things.Middle school taught you the basics of academics time management, and social skills while providing your with a little extra support and guidance. High school gives you the chance to learn how to be more independent and responsible.5. According to the passage. when they come to the school on the first day freshmen usually feel_______A.nervousB. afraidC.proudD.excited6. What are freshmen probably worried about?A.The training in the freshman orientationB.The learning taskC.The ability to make friendsD. The relationship with teachers7. After-school activities mainly help studentsA. develop friendshipsB.improve their learning abilityC develop their interests D. build up healthy bodies8. The last paragraph is mainly aboutA. what you learned in middle schoolB. the difference between middle school and high schoolC. the importance of being more independent and responsibleD.what you ll learn in high schoolCThis was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts（花生）, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice; let the coin decide. I flipped(掷) a coin and Ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I wascompletely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I deserved a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster’s office again, but this time a completely different conversation.I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.9. The task I received was to find information about ________.A.American War of IndependenceB.my headmaster Miss Lancelotes for peanutsD.George Washington10.________ helped me decide what my report would be about.A.A coinB.My grandpaC.My classmatesD.The Internet11. People in the class acted strangely because ________.A.I mistook what the homework was aboutB.the teacher’s face turned to a stoneC..I was too proud of my homeworkD.the whole world suddenly became quiet12.We can infer(推断) from the passage that ________.A.the writer knew little about American historyB.the headmaster didn’t like the writer at allC.the writer’s classmates felt sad at his mistakeD．the writer’s grandpa was a very wise man第二部分．七选五(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

AOne day a lawyer‟s wife fell ill, and he went to get a doctor. The doctor willingly came to see the woman and to do what he could for her, but before he went into the house, he made a short stop.
