阜蒙县第二高中2017--2018学年度上学期高一期末考试英语试卷时间：100分钟总分：150分第一部分：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）AA teenager needs to have a sense of independence in their life to feel secure （安全的）. To some teenagers independence means a lot to them, and I think that some parents don’t allow their teenagers enough independence.Independence has something to do with freedom. Some kids are not allowed to go anywhere alone, and the only thing their schedule includes is going to school, coming home, going to sleep, and repeating the process the next day. Parents tend to be afraid that their kids can get hurted if they go outside into the world. But if parents control their kids too much, they may never learn to live on their own. The best way for a teenager to learn lesson is through experience. I think it is beneficial for teenagers to have freedom.Teenagers’ lack of freedom can also stop them from having good friendship at school. Some might say that this is a good thing, because it helps them focus more on their school work. I argue that this can only discourage them not to do their school work. Some parents do not allow their children to be around their friends outside the school, thinking that this will get them into trouble. But I don’t think so. Instead, isn’t this a good reason for parents to get their children a cellphone? Cellphones allow teenagers to stay in touch with their parents, and communicate better with their friends.Privacy is another issue between parents and their teenagers. Teenagers tend to enjoy relaxation by themselves in their own room. This also gives them a sense of independence. It often annoys teenagers when their parents enter their room when they are not home. I know that my mom always goes in m y room when I’m not home, and this has brought me to the point where I have asked many times to get a lock on my door.1. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. Kids know how to live independently.B. Some parents allow their kids no freedom.C. It benefits teenagers to have freedom.D. Kids have a dull routine every day2. In the opinion of the author, ___________.A. parents should make it easy for kids to communicate with their friendsB. good friendships between kids harm their school workC. it is unnecessary for a kid to have a cellphoneD. kids should focus on the school work3. How do teenagers usually feel when their parents enter their rooms in their absence?A. DisappointedB. LuckyC. AngryD. Calm4. The author hopes to have her door locked in order to ______________.A. keep her father from reading her dairyB. prevent her mother entering her roomC. Protect herself from any harmD. Stop thieves from going inBStudying English for an hour once a w eek isn’t usually enough to make any real progress. The best way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day. Get yourself concentrated(集中) as much as possible every time you study, and challenge yourself to listen to , read ,and even say things in English that you think might be too difficult for you.The right attitude can make the difference between failure and success. Stop thinking of yourself as someone who is learning English, and start thinking of yourself as someone who speaks English. It’s a small change, but it will make you feel more confident and help you to use the English you already know more effectively.This also means you need to start thinking in English. If you want to say the word “apple” in E nglish, for example, right now you probably think of the word in your native language first, and then try to think of the correct word in English. Instead, try imaging a picture of an apple, and then just think the English word “apple”. Real fluency happen s when you stop mentally translating conversations.When most students listen to a native English-speaker, they focus on understanding what all the words mean. This is definitely important, but there is a lot more you can learn from listening. Try listening not just to what the words mean, but to how the person says them. Notice which words the person links together in a sentence, or when they say “ya” instead of “you”. Try to remember these details the next time you speak and your English will begin to sound more natural.5. What can we do if we want to make progress in English learning ?A.
