高一下册期中考试英语试题考试时间：150分钟满分：120分第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）略第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）•（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 can’t think of a better way of appreciating a new culture than by taking part in one of its festivals. You’ll find that some festivals are celebrated by an entire country, while others may be known only to a single city or region, but either way festivals play an important role in a certain culture. Just enjoy them!★Tomatina — Bunol, SpainEvery last Wednesday in August, the town of Bunol is filled with tons of tomatoes in the world’s biggest food flight. Many people wear goggles (护目镜) during this hour of great fun, as the town becomes a red river.★Boryeong Mud Festival — Boryeong, South KoreaFor two weeks in July, millions gather in Boryeong to experience the grey pools and slides. What began as a way to help sell the region’s mineral-rich mud has turned into a festive party with music and fireworks. The mud is usually only available in cosmetic products (化妆品), but here you can cake yourself in grey as you want.★Holi — IndiaHoli, the Festival of Colors, is a Hindu celebration full of joy and one of India’s most important holidays. During the day of the last full moon of the lunar month, usually late February or early March, the air is full of brightly colored powder (粉末). The festival is celebrated differently throughout the country, with bonfires and music, but the cheerful spirit is common among Hindu people around the world.★International Pillow Fight Day — WorldwideTens of thousands of people took part in the 4th annual International Pillow Fight Day on April 2, 2013．From London to Vancouver to many other cities, the festival is held in more than 100 countries. So just bring a soft pillow in early April, and watch feathers fly. 21．According to the author, _______________.A．it’s usually hard for people to accept a different cultureB．festivals in a certain culture often change with timeC． there should be festivals celebrated by the whole worldD． festivals give people the best chances to experience a culture22．We learn from the passage that _______________.A．the town of Bunol in Spain is on a riverB．International Pillow Fight Day has a short historyC．cosmetic products sell well on Boryeong Mud FestivalD．Holi is the greatest festival for Indian people23．The passage is most likely to be found in __________.A．a travel magazine B．a technical reportC． a geography book D．a personal diaryBWhen I came to Cincinnati (a city in the US) as an au pair (家庭打工留学生), a lot of things there were different from what I knew. My host family lived in a huge house I could only describe as a “castle”. In Germany I had lived in a small apartment together with my mom. Soon I found out that the “castle” was actually rather small in our neighborhood.Everybody there was very friendly and polite. They greeted you when they were walking by at least 3 feet away from you. They must not have seen a German au pair before, for most people I met asked me all kinds of questions about Germany. I enjoyed answering their various strange questions. I made a lot of friends and I started to hang out with them.Of course, there were a number of new things, and it took me the whole year to find them all out. I never got homesick. Perhaps it was because I did not have too many negative (负面的) experiences and felt loved and welcomed there.However, I had undergone some painful experiences back in Germany. I was frustrated by the way people would run me over and not even say “Sorry.” Taking up my studies at the TU-Dresden, I felt lonely. Everybody here seemed to be withdrawn (离群的) and I missed everything I had in Cincinnati. Germany was so “cold”. I found it so much harder to make new friends. After six months I got a roommate and only two good friends. I also flew back to Cincinnati several times for long periods. I felt that without those visits I was not able to make it.Now I am over this German culture shock. It almost took me an entire year. I am still going back and forward between Dresden and Cincinnati four times a year.24．When the author lived in Cincinnati, _______________.A．some people were not very kind to herB．many people were curious about her motherlandC．she lived in a real castleD．she lived in the biggest house in the neighborhood25．In the opinion of the author, life in Cincinnati was ________.A．hard B．painfulC．wonderful D． strange26．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the author?A．She lived with her mother in a big house in Germany.B．She did miss her friends in Cincinnati when she was at the TU-Dresden.C．She never went back to Cincinnati after she came back to Germany.D．She seldom hung out with her American friends as she was too busy.27．What is the best title for this passage?A．University life in GermanyB．Advantages of living in USAC．My culture shock experienceD． How to be an au pair in USACYou are what you eat and fats are a main food for Asia’s fast-food generation. Dr. Chwang, director of the Department of Food Nutrition, says children are eating more meat and drinking more soft drinks. That is totally different from the traditional diet of vegetables and rice and little meat. “They like big pieces of fried meat with a soft drink. So although they may eat the same amount of food, their calorie intake (卡路里摄入量) has increased. Now about 40 to 45 percent of their calories come from fat,” says Chwang.Although on the whole Asians are often thin, culture — namely Asians’ hospitality (热情好客) — is a reason for the fatness of today’s generation, according to Chwang. “Asian people love food,” she says, “Eating and drinking are important social and family activities.”In the past, however, big meals were only hosted for special events, as people were more careful with money. In today’s climate of wealth and high consumption (消耗), 10-course meals are no longer reserved for important times.“In the past, people had four or more children — now, they have one or two, so they are likely to spoil them,” says Chwang. “The easiest way is to give them ‘quality food’. Parents think feeding them well is showing their love. They feel bad when their children look thin.”When describing the physical condition of most overweight Asian children, Chwang says：“there is a clear relationship between fatness and indoor play. Children get fat because they don’t move, and in the end, they don’t want to move because they are fat.”Because of technology, a growing army of children prefer video games to old outdoor sports. “What do children do when watching TV or sitting in front of the computer playing video games? They eat chocolate and drink Coke,” says Chwang.28．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．Asian children no longer follow their diet tradition.B．Asian people now like to save more money.C．Asian children eat big meals more often.D．Culture leads to the fatness of Asian children.29．According to the passage, the quality food fed by more parents is actually ________. A．healthful food B．qualified foodC．high-calorie food D．agreeable food30．Some parents feel bad when their children look thin, because __________________. A．they feel that they are not wealthy enough to afford “quality food”B．they feel that they don’t take good care of their childrenC．the children don’t have a good physical conditionD．their children don’t love eating and drinking31．The purpose of this article is to _________________.A．compare the traditional diet with today’s diet of Asian childrenB．find reasons for increased food consumption of Asian peopleC．prove the relationship between fatness and indoor playD．explain why many Asian children are overweight nowadaysDRetirement (退休) should be time of joy and freedom. However, for some people retirement comes with feelings of depression (沮丧), which makes life difficult for them.Retirement is a major life change. Even good changes usually involve some kinds of loss. When you retire, you find yourself lacking whatever working used to provide. That could include, for example, 1．knowing you’re working for society, 2．getting admiration from your skills, 3．having “aha” moments when you solve problems, 4．having people to socialize with, and 5．simply having a place to go and a reason to get out of bed every day. For most people, there’s a financial loss, too. Also, retirement age is a time when a lot of people have to deal with losing their parents or having serious health problems of their own.Because of all these, retirees are more likely to get depressed.Depression is very harmful. First, depression can make physical health problems worse. Second, it takes a toll on relationships, because it can make people angry. Third, it’s hard to getmuch done when you’re depressed.What can we do to overcome (克服) the feelings of depression? First, do all the things that help depression in general：drink enough water, exercise, talk to friends, have a hobby, laugh, and spend time in nature. If you feel depressed more often than not, it’s probably time to talk to a doctor about your feelings. Second, it’s important to keep busy and get out of the house when you can. Make specific plans with friends. Take a class Volunteer. Or just make sure you start each day with some kind of goal. Third, try to focus on what you’ve gained by retiring. Think about what you may have now that you wished you had before you were able to retire. For example, days that are less stressful, a chance to rest and take better care of your body, more time for your family and yourself. To write, to start a hobby and to learn something new are all new possibilities. Finally, tell your story. You’ve lived a long time and you become an oral historian each time you talk with someone about your experiences. You can also write in a journal or make a video recording of your memories. Telling your stories can help you look back on your life and career with a sense of wholeness and achievements.32．People may find life very hard after they retire because of ___________.A．freedom B．nervousnessC．discouragement (losing heart) D．hard work33．All the following can cause the retirees’ unpleasant feelings EXCEPT ____________.A．they will suffer from financial lossB．they have to support their parentsC．they may lose the reason to get up earlyD．they may have fewer people to socialize with34．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means ________________.A．it makes people’s relationships unusualB．it makes people’s relationships in peaceC．it makes people’s relationships in dangerD．it makes people stay in touch with each other.35．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Depression and RetirementB．Depression During Retirement Is HarmfulC．Reasons for Depression During RetirementD．How to Overcome Depression During Retirement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。

When he was young, he was good at science and maths. And he wanted to be a scientist.Bill started to play with computers when he was 13. At that time, computers were very large machines.Once he was interested in a very old computer. He and some of his friends spent lots of time doing unusual things with it. In the end, they worked out a software program with the old machine. Bill sold it for 4200 dollars when he was only 17.In 1973, Bill went to Harvard University . He developed the Basic language for the first microcomputer . In his third year, he left Harvard. Bill began his company in 1975 with his friend Paul Allen. They thought that the computer would be a very important tool in every office and in every home, so they began developing software for personal computers. They developed the software to make it easier for people to use computers.In 1999, Bill wrote a book. In the book, he told people how computer technology could solve business problems in new ways. It was one of the best-sellers on The New York Times' list. Bill Gates has many hobbies. He enjoyed reading very much. He also enjoys playing golf and bridge.( )1.

We can learn from the text that _____.A. Bill worked for Microsoft before he went to Harvard UniversityB. Bill sold his first software program for 420 dollarsC. Bill began his company in 1976 with his friendD. reading is one of Bill's hobbiesBMillions of years ago dinosaurs lived on the earth. In the days of dinosaurs, the whole earth was warm and wet. There were green forests and they could find enough to eat. Later, parts of the earth became cold and dry, and the forests there died. Then dinosaurs could not find enough to eat. This must be one reason why dinosaurs died out.We can guess another reason. New kinds of animals came on the earth. Some had big brains and strong. They could kill dinosaurs.There may be other reasons that we don't know about yet. Scientists are are trying to make more discoveries about dinosaurs. Dinosaurs were of many sizes and shapes. Some were as small as chickens, while some were about 90 feet long.There were also terrible rights between dinosaurs. They night have happened more than 100 million years ago. Though there was no man to see any of the fights, we can be told by the animal's footprints (足迹) that fights did take place.( )5. According to the passage, dinosaurs did exist only on the earth _____.A. for millions of yearB. millions of years agoC. more than 100 million years agoD. when it was warm and wet somewhere( )6. One reason why dinosaurs died out is that _____.A. there were too many dinosaursB. parts of the earth became cold and dryC. the dead forests there could not supply them with enough foodD. they couldn’t find enough go eat( )7. One more reason why dinosaurs died out may be that _____.A. new kinds of animals came on the earthB. some fast and strong animals with big brains could kill themC. some dinosaurs were as small as chickensD. some big dinosaurs died in the fights( )8. We can see from this passage _____.A. scientists are trying to make some dinosaursB. dinosaurs are dangerous enoughC. dinosaurs are worth studyingD. scientists know nothing about dinosaursCToday there are two kinds of elephants, the African elephant and the Indian elephant. The African elephant is the biggest of all land animals. It may be more than 12 feet tall and weigh over 6 tons. the Indian elephant is a foot or so shorter and weighs less, but it still huge. The African elephant has bigger ears, longer tusks and a flatter head.Like all other mammals, elephants have hair,but adults have very little. Young ones have much more. Most elephants are members of a herd(群). The herds wander about while hunting. All elephants are plant eaters. They gather grass and leaves with their trunks and dig up roots with their sharp tusks. An elephant needs several hundred pounds of food and over 30 gallons of water a day. It uses its trunk to put food and water into its mouth. Since its trunk is its nose, it also breathes through it.People have a number of mistaken ideas about elephants. One is that elephants never forget. Elephants have large brains and very intelligent, but they forget just as we do.Another mistaken idea is that elephants outlive people. Actually, few live more than 70. There are no elephant graveyards, places where elephants supposedly go when they die. And the so-called pygmy elephant(侏儒象) are really African elephants that live in the forest and are not as big as those who live in the bush.In Asia people have used elephants for working and hunting for centuries.Rulers there have been proud of their royal elephants. African elephants are seldom tamed, and the idea has grown up that they cannot be. This is another wrong idea. Jumbo, the famous circus(马戏团) elephant was an African elephant. And in early times African elephants served as war horses.The elephants of today are remnants(残余) of a much large group. Fossils of hundreds of kinds have been found.( )9.What is special about young elephants ?A.They like living in a big group.B.They have more hair than adults.C.They are shorter and very weak.D.They have much flatter heads.( )10.What is the second paragraphy mainly about ?A.The living habits of elephants.B.The hair and trunks of elephants.C.The importance of the tusks.D.How elephants eat their food.( )11.What does the underlined word “outlive” in Paragraphy3 probably mean ?A.AttackB.Make friends withC.Serve forD.live longer than( )12.Which of the following is NOT the mistaken idea about elephants?A.They are plant eatersB.They never gorget.C.They outlive people.D.They cannot be tamed.DOnline shopping has become more and more popular these years. Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in the US.For years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2013 holiday season 58 percent of those shopping online were women.“It shows how popu lar the Internet is becoming,” said Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project group, which carried out the study. Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men. This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending.Users were more likely to shop online to save time. Internet users between the ages 18 and 29 were responsible for some of the surprising increase in the online gift-buying population this time around. However, three-quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2013. They worried about credit card security(信用卡安全), or just compared online prices with off-line prices, then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.“But even if shoppers don't buy online, websites are becoming promotion(促销) tools for stores,” said Dan Hess, vice president of Com Score Network Inc. Hess said that actually most stores, websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers. And most are able to ensurethat gifts arrive on time.“It's all about making the shopping experience more efficient(效率高的), more reliable and more comfortable.” Hess said.( )13.Which of the following statements is true?A.There were fewer women online shoppers than men in 2013.B.More women shopped online than men in 2013.C.Most of the Internet users between the ages 18 and 29 were women.D.People in the US were more likely to buy gifts online( )14.What does the underlined part “dashed off” probably mean?A.关闭B.推迟C.匆忙D.起飞( )15.According to Dan Hess, shopping online is_______.A.unsafeB.convenientC.a waste of moneyD.cheaper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答案。

They are likely to be better for you than any other food. But are all fruits cre ated equal? Let’s do a survey of which fruits are the best if you’re looking to lose weight.Apples are a common fav orite. They’re the finest snack: filling, juicy and portable. Studies have even shown that eating three apples per day can help with weight loss. There are plenty of ways to eat apples: Eat a whole apple, add apple pieces to your meal, throw apple balls into a salad, bake some with your chicken, or cook up a low-calorie dessert.Watermelon is low in calories with high water content. This means you can eat two entire cups of watermelon for less than 100 calories and your stomach will feel like you’ve eaten more because the fruit is more than 90 percent water. This way, you’ll avoid higher-calorie foods and satisfy your sweet tooth.Raspberries(覆盆子) are small but powerful! These babies are low in calories and even lower when you consider that they’re high in i ndigestible fiber. Raspberries have the highest fiber content of any fruit (1 cup = 8 g fiber).Grapefruit(葡萄柚) gives you a lot of help for your calorie avoidance. A middle-size grapefruit has only around 80 calories, and like watermelon, it’s more than 90percent water. Plus, studies have shown that a compound(化合物) in grapefruit called naringin could lower blood sugar and lead to weight loss. So enjoy some grapefruit at every opportunity—press it into your water, throw some into your salad, or use it like lemon to flavor your food. Keep in mind that eating grapefruit with certain medicines could have harmful influences. If you’re on any prescription(处方), check with your doctor before adding grapefruit to your diet.24. What might be the best title for the text?A. The secret of fruitsB. Top fruits for weight lossC. The forms of a healthy dietD. A survey of healthy fruits25. What is the common character of the fruits mentioned in the text?A. Equal in nutrients.B. Rich in naringin.C. Low in calories.D. High in fiber.26. Which fruit might cause side effects when eaten with some medicines?A. Apple.B. Watermelon.C. Raspberry.D. Grapefruit27. Grapefruit is most suitable for a person who _______.A. has sweet toothB. is weak in digestionC. is high in blood sugarD. is below average heightCJust a few short days ago, our beloved dog of 14 years passed away. In truth, I had no idea how my children would rea ct to our sweet girl’s passing. I’ve learnedthat each of my kids is handling the gaping hole she left in our family differently. My oldest daughter has been in competition with me for the most tears shed. My middle one is exhibiting more anger than sadness. Our two years old kid doesn’t truly understand what happened, but she is witnessing the emotional changes around her and cries too.A new st udy out of Canisius College that looks at how children u nderstand a pet’s death is helping me. According to Science Daily, Joshua J. Russell, PhD conducted one-on-one interviews with kids between the ages of 6 and 13. And he learned, among other things, that kids do understand a pet’s relatively short life span.I found this interesting , as our dog was 14 when she passed away, but my children have still expressed a reluctance to accept it. They keep asking why they can’t see her again. But Russell claims, “Children whose pets lived the extent of their potential lifetimes--- or beyond---expressed acceptance upon their deaths.” He added that kids felt that putting them down.“There were those who felt it would be wrong to move on to a new pet because they had to honor their relationships with the former one,” Russ ell explains, adding that a new pet was linked with feeling better for some kids. “They explained it as an opportunity to start over and suggested that replacing a companion animal is more about beginning a new relationship than erasing memories of an old one. ” I couldn’t agree more. We will NEVER forget our sweet dog who passed away. But when one thing ends, another can begin.28. Who got angry on hearing the dog’s passing?A. The motherB. The eldest childC. The second childD. The youngest child29. How did Joshua J. Russell know kids’ feeling on pet’s death?A. By asking their parentsB. By analyzing previous studiesC. By talking with children personallyD. By comparing differences between the interviewees.30. What does the underlined word “reluctance” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. CuriosityB. PerformanceC. DeterminationD. Unwillingness31. What does the author suggest we do about the loss of our pet?A. Give up raising animalsB. Move on to a new one.C. Keep sweet memories foreverD. Forget it as soon as possibleDThe Arctic Ocean(北冰洋) is small, shallow ,and---most importantly---covered. Unlike the other large oceans of world, it is closely surrounded by Asia, Europe, and North America, with very few watery entrances in an out.Often, that remoteness (偏僻) has played to its ecological advantage. Very few ships pass through the area, at least compared to nearby waterways like the Bering Sea. It also helps that much of the Arctic freezes over every winter.But a paper released this week in Science Advances argues that its location in now harming it. The first survey of the region has found that roughly 300 billion pieces of floating plastic, most of them ti ny but visible to the unaided eye(肉眼), have blocked the planet’s northernmost sea. The plastic, having been carried to the pole over decades, now has very few ways out.“Our data show that the marine plastic pollution has reached a global scale after only a few decades using plastic materia ls.” said Andres Cozar Cabanas, a biologist at the University of Cadiz. He said, “It is a clear evidence of the human capacity to change our plant. This plastic accumulation is likely to grow further.”“It is pretty clear that this plastic has been transported by ocean currents.” How the plastic are entering the Arctic is not clear,” Martha Buckley , an oceanographer said. Ocean curr ents matter because they’ll help researchers learn if the plastic is trapped in the Arctic permanently or whether it will eventually work its way out.“We should properly manage the plastic waste at its source（源头）, ” said Andres Cozar Cabanas. “ Once the plastic enters the ocean, its destination and impacts are uncontrollable”32. How is the Arctic Ocean different from the other large oceans?A. It is deeper and colder.B. It has very few wateryC .It is surrounded by fewest continents. D. It is researched more by scientists.33. What can be inferred about the Bering Sea from the text?A. It is covered with floating plastic.B. It is the coldest area in the Arctic.C. The Arctic benefits a lot from it every winter.D. It is a relatively busier channel near the Arctic.34. What is the key to controlling the plastic waste around the Arctic Ocean according to Cabanas?A. Reducing the ships crossing there.B. Studying ocean currents in d etail.C. Stopping the use of the plastic.D. Managing the source of plastic waste.35. What can be the best title for the text?A. The future of the Arctic Ocean.B. The plastic is trapped in the Arctic Ocean accidently.C. The Arctic Ocean is blocked with billions of plastic bits.D. How the Arctic Ocean is being polluted by plastic bits.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，选项中又两项为多余选项Friendly people are welcoming.

ASometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do．When this happens，a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing．When this does not work，the parent usually punishes the child．There are many things that a parent can do．One thing that people have done is to spank(打屁股)the child．When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on the bottom．This means showing the child that they have done something wrong．One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child．His parents used a wooden spoon．When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child’s leg．He never did that again．One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing．Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard．Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing．Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking．Some people think that their religion tells them that spanking is okay．Some think that the law lets them do it．The courts(法院)say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave．Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child．Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing．Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried．Getting down to the child’s level and taking a more child-friendly approach can help as well．21．According to the passage，when children do something wrong，one thing that parents usually do to punish them is toA．strike them on the bottom B．try to help them do the right thingC．teach them what to do D．take them to court 22．Which of the following is NOT the problem caused by spanking?A．It teaches the child to hit others when they offend him or her．B．The parents may get angry and hit the child too hard．C．Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything．D．It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right．23．From this passage，we can conclude thatA．good children always do the right thingB．parents should try their best to avoid spanking their childrenC．parents have no choice but to spank their childrenD．children can have more than one choice to avoid being spankedBIn addition to seeing wonderful films, one of the joys of coming to the Quad Cinema is to hang out in the area.

The Judson is most famous for its vocal participation in social events.Washington MewsIt is a hidden, private street in New York City between Fifth Avenue and University Place just north of Washington Square Park. It was first developed as a mews (row of stables) that serviced horses from homes in the area. Since the 1950s the former stables have served as housing, offices and other facilities for New York University.Jefferson Market CourthouseBuilt in 1833 as a market, it was later changed to a courthouse, and in the 1950s it was emptied and close to being destroyed.

When Washington Mews came into being______ .A. it was designed for a universityB. it was intended for keeping horsesC. it was filled with free facilitiesD. it was used as a park for horses CThe next time your friends roll their eyes when you’re sn apping a selfie (自拍照) or taking a photo of your dessert, tell them that photographing everyday things can actually make people happier.In a study of more than 2,000 people, researchers found that people who took photos of their experiences, whether they were walking through a museum or going on a city bus tour, had a better time overall compared with those who didn’t.During each of the study’s nine experiments, people were asked to either take photos or give up photography during an everyday activity, such as eating a meal. In nearly every experiment, the group that took photos showed higher levels of enjoyment.The finding might not sound terribly surprising. After all, Facebook members upload about 2 billion photos daily, and Instagram users upload about 80 million photos every day. But some people argue that taking photographs can distract (分散注意力) themselves from enjoying an experience while it’s happening.The new research shows that it isn’t the case and that photography does increase a person’s enjoyment, because it increases his or her engagement in the activity. For example, in one experiment, people toured a museum while wearing glasses that tracked their eye movements. The group that took photos spent more time looking at the artifacts than t hose who didn’t.However,photos are sometimes a drag. For instance, if the camera is difficult to carry, it might not bring enjoyment to a person. And in some cases, photography can make situations unpleasant. For example, when people in the study took a virtual safari (游猎) and watched some lions attacking a water buffalo, the people who took photos of the bloody event were reported to havea lower enjoyment of the activity than those who didn’t, the researchers said.28. Why does taking photos increase enjoyment?A. People can share their photos on Facebook.B. People have more time to look at the objects to be photographed.C. Some photos may end up as valuable artifacts.D. Photography gets people more involved in the activity.29. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Photography sometimes can be dangerous.B. Photography requires more courage to do.C. Photography is an unpleasant process.D. Photography isn’t fun all the time.30. Which of the following is closest to the main idea of the text?A. Photography helps you appreciate people around you.B. Snapping a selfie is a symbol of self-confidence.C. Taking photos doesn’t ruin your experience.D. The photo-taking process is a mental choice.31.The writing form of the passage is _______A. a research reportB. a novelC. a dramaD. a descriptionDOnce upon a time, there was an old businessman, who came to a small town when it was about 12 o’clock at night. He found an inn and decided to stay there for the night. After he had gone to his room, the owner said to his wife, “Look at his suitcase, dear. I’m sure there are lots of valuable things in it. I want to steal it when he is asleep.”“No, no,” said the woman. “He must look for his suitcase tomorrow morning. Then he’ll take you before the judge.” They thought and at last the woman had an idea. “We have forgetful grass,” said the woman, “Why not put some into his tea? If he has the tea, he will forget to take his suitcase away.”“How clever you are!” said the owner, “Don’t forget it when you make tea for him.”The old man had the tea with the forgetful grass and went to bed. The next morning, when the owner got up, he found the door was open and the old man had left with his suitcase. He woke his wife up and said angrily, “How foolish you are! Your forgetful grass isn’t useful at all.”“No, no,” said the woman. “I don’t think so. He must forget something.”“Oh, I’ve remembered!” The owner cried out suddenly, “He forgot…”32.

2019学年第二学期高一英语期中考试本试卷共120分,考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷( 共85分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,共40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,共30分.)AMobile phones are in the hands of many kids and teenagers .However ,are they really necessary at school? Here are the pros and cons(赞成和反对的理由).PROSThey can get in touch when necessary . The main benefit of having a phone is that your child can get in touch with you whenever they need to . This allows you to feel they are safe.They can ring the emergency services if necessary. If your child is in immediate danger, they can use their phone to call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit and could potentially save your child’s life.Mobile phones can be turned off or on to silent. As long as your child remembers to do this their phone won’t cause a distraction(分心) in class, but they will have a way to contact you if they need to. Giving them a standard rather than a smartphone will also reduce the risk of distraction.CONSThe latest smartphones can almost double as a computer . It means they offer far more of a distraction to kids than they used to. Nowadays, children can not only text and make calls with their mobiles, they can also play games, surf the Internet and listen to music. All these features could disturb your child’s concent ration if they play with them in class.It could interrupt lessons. Many children, even though they are asked to do so, forget to turn off their phones during lessons and their phones may make sounds. This not only annoys other pupils but also prevents them from learning.Besides the distraction problem, access to the Internet can also be used to look up answers and mobile phones have some other functions---a calculator and the ability to save notes. The possibility of children having access to this information during exams could be too tempting(诱惑人的)for pupils not to take advantage of.1. We can infer that many parents give their kids phones mainly to_____.A. enrich their school lifeB. make sure they are safeC. improve their performance at schoolD. help them communicate with friends2 To reduce the risk of distraction from phones, which suggestion is given?A. Parents shouldn’t contact their children in class.B.There should be enough public phones in school.C.Teachers ask students to turn off their phones in class.D.Children use ordinary phones instead of smartphones.3. According to the last paragraph, for students, using mobile phones at school_____.A. has many advantagesB. helps them take notesC. makes cheating easierD. inspires their exploration spiritBFifty-two endangered sea turtles were brought back to good health and returned to the wild earlier this month. Teams of researchers drove the turtles all the way from Massachusetts to Florida, where they were put back into the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean.The turtles’ story began last fall, when a large number of them got stuck near Cape Cod in Massachusetts. These tough turtles had to be nursed back to good health for about six months before they could swim in the sea again.Sea turtles generally live south of the Carolinas in the Atlantic Ocean. But during the summer months, they take a ride on the Gulf Stream-----a strong ocean current of warm water that runs north along the east coast. The Gulf Stream brings the turtles plenty of tasty food to eat.When summer turns to fall, sea turtles head south again as the water turns colder. That’s because sea turtles are cold-blooded. That means they cannot produce their own body heat. They need the seawater to provide them with heat.S ome turtles don’t get to warmer waters fast enough. When the waters of the northern Atlantic turn cold in the fall, many turtles can’t stand the cold. They can not move and become unable to find their way. The turtles can drift only where the wind and tides take them.Many of these turtles are washed up on the shore near Cape Cod. Last year , 242turtles were rescued there.Scientists are unsure why so many needed to be helped. The turtles spent the winter getting better at aquariums along the east coast.As the weather grew warmer, 52 turtles were ready to return to their natural habitat. It was a great success for the turtles and the people who nursed them back to health.“It’s an exciting day for all these organizations,” said Connie Merigo of the New Engla nd Aquarium.“This is what we work for. These are endangered species. So every turtle that gets back out in the wild and has a potential to contribute to the population is really important.”4.How do the sea turtles come to the northern Atlantic?A. They are carried there by a strong ocean current.B.Some researchers attract them there to do a study .C.Some fishermen bring them there and set them free.D.They are washed up there by a stream of cold water.5.Sea turtles head south when ____.A. they are tiredB. the temperature dropsC. they have had enough foodD. there is no tasty food for them6.Why are some turtles in need of help?A.They are starving.B.They are freezing.C.They are hurt by other animals.D.They are suffering from a disease.7. What does the underlined word “This” in the last paragraph refer to?A. The turtles are shown to the public.B.The turtles are studied by scientists.C.Some turtles are returning to the wild.D.Some turtles will be kept in the aquariumCDoctors are known to be terrible pilots. They don’t listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn’t realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon(外科医生). I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组管理资源),or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that , an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying ; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear(起落架) down. He was a better pilot--and my boss ---so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I p ut aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put the landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I have used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot\surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor does not overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I’m in the operating room,I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they are not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landing gear up”.8.What does the author say about doctors in general?A.They are unwilling to take advice.B.They like flying by themselves.C.They pretend to be good pilots.D.They are quick learners of CRM.9.The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when____.A.his boss operated on a patientB. he was in charge of a flying taskC. his boss landed the plane too lateD. he saved the plane by speaking up10. In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means_______.A. following flying requirementsB. making a mistake that may cost livesC.overreacting to difference opinionsD.listening to what fellow doctors say11 Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying SafeB.Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC.The Making of a Good pilotD. A Pilot--Turned DoctorDJimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed,he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him;he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said,“Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It is the least I cou ld do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease(油迹) on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked,“Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped in this office. I just know you would be a trustworth y worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well--deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.12.Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A.He was bored with his job.B.He was out of work.C.He wanted a higher position.D.He hoped to find a better boss.13.What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A.An old man’s car broke down.B.A friend’ car had a flat tyre.C.A wild man was pushing a car.D.A terrible car accident happened.14Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?A.He was also to be interviewed.B.He need a traveling companion.C.He was thankful to Jimmy.D.He always helped people in need.15What can we learn from Jimmy’s experience?A.Where there is a will, there is a way.B.Good is rewarded with good.C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.D.Two heads are better than one.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,共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.选项中有两项为多余选项.How to improve your EnglishLearning English is a continuous process.

第I 卷第一节阅读理解（每小题2分，满分30分）AThere was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers, he used two buckets（水桶）. One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked（漏水）along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still bothers you. What a waste of space you are!”And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know I am not very useful, but I can only do my best. I’m happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”One day, the gardener heard that kind of conversation. After watering the flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your wor k very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.”Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare（光秃秃的）earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.1. What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?A. fineB. darkC. worn outD. plain-looking2. What was the old bucket ashamed of?A. His pastB. His agingC.His mannerD.His leaking3.

Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A. Because it was used to keep balance.B. Because it stayed in its best condition.C. Because it was treated as a treasure.D. Because it had its own function.BJimmy is an automotive mechanic（汽修工）, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment（约见）was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre（胎） of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease（油污）on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old manhe helped earlier in the morning.

I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shareda cup of well-deserved（出名的） coffee as he landed（谋得） himself a new job.5. What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A. A friend’s car had a flat tyreB. a wild man was pushing a carC. a terrible accident happenedD. an old man’s car broke down6. Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?A. He was also to be interviewedB. He needed a traveling companionC. He always helped people in needD. He was thankful to Jimmy7. How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewer’s question?A. He was sorry for the other applicantsB. There was no hope for him to get the jobC. He regretted helping the old manD. The interviewer was very rude8. What can we learn from Jimmy’s experience？A. Where there is a will, there’s a wayB. A friend in need is a friend indeedC. Good is rewarded with good.D. Two heads are better than oneCCan dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship.However, it isn’t all sweetness and light. There wa s a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression(侵略，好斗) and fighting werefound in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body language is just different. For example, when a cat turns its head away it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission(顺从).In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “Dog”, and dogs can learn how to talk “Cat”.What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other’s body language, suggesting that the two may have more in common than expected. Once f amiliar with each other’s body language, cats and dogs can play together, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets — to people who don’t get along well, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.9. The underlined word “swimmingly”in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”.A. earlyB. mostlyC. quicklyD. smoothly10. What is found surprising about cats and dogs?A. They eat and sleep together.B. They watch each other’s behavior.C. They learn to speak each other’s language.D. They know something from each other’s voice.11. It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ________.A. have common interestsB. are less different than thoughtC. have a common body languageD. are not so smart as expected12. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?A. We should learn to get along well with others.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in peace with animals.D. We should learn more body language.DIt is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you feel that your throat hurts. You begin to sneeze and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a moment. Could it just be a common cold or the flu(流感) that’s been going around?A cold gives you a runny nose and cough. But it’s usually easy to deal with. Some take medicine while others drink herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week.On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919.Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine(疫苗), it can stop you from getting the virus(病毒). Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies(抗体). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you.The flu virus changes every few years. Therefore, there are so many types of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one type of flu can’t help us against all types of flu. That’s why we need to get vaccine every year.However, good health habits may also help stop you developing a cold or flu. Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to get regular exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you strengthen your immune system.13.According to the passage, which is TRUE of the flu?A.It first happened in 1919.B. It usually doesn’t give you fever.C.It is easy to deal with.D.It can kill people sometimes.14. If you get a flu vaccine, .A. it can’t stop you from getting the flu virusB. it won't cause your body to develop antibodiesC. your body will develop antibodiesD. your body will get a large amount of flu viruses15. We need to get a flu vaccine every year because .A. we probably have a cold in winterB. the flu virus changes every few yearsC. the flu is very dangerousD. you don’t need to take any medicine after that第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

AI was in a strange city and I didn't know the city at all, and what is more, I could not speak a word of the language. After having spent my first day in the town-centre, I decided to lose my way on my second day, since I believed that this was the simplest way of getting to know the strange city. I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off it and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough. Then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived and even then I pronounced it badly.I stopped to ask a friendly-looking newspaper-seller. He smiled and handed mea paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. The policeman listened to me carefully, smiled and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I thanked him politely and began walking in the direction he pointed. About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me.
