Linda and NikoBWhen I was 16 years old, I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn't the first time that I had been abroad. Like most British children, I learned French at school and I had often been to France, so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn't understand English. But when I went to America, I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.How wrong I was! The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my friend Mary a ring and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking like being lost and asked if he could help me." Yes," I said." I want to give my friend a ring."" Well, that's nice," he said." Are you getting married? But aren't you a bit young?"" Who is talking about marriage?" I replied." I just want to give my friend a ring to tell her I've arrived. Can you tell me where there's a phone box?"" Oh!" he said." There is a phone downstairs."When at last we did meet up, Mary explained the misunderstanding to me." Don't worry," she said to me." I had many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from usBritish. You'll soon get used to all the funny things they say. But most of the time British and American people can understand each other!"4. Where was white from?A. He was from America.B. He was from France.C. He was from Britain.D. He was from China.5. The writer thought in America.A. he wouldn't have any language difficulties.B. he would not understand Americans.C. the Americans might not understand him.D. he would have difficulties at the airport.6. The writer wantedA. to buy a ring for his friendB. to make a call to his friendC. to go to the telephone companyD. his found to see him off7. From the passage we can see that" give somebody a ring"A. means the same in America as in BritainB. means "call somebody" to the old manC. means "be going to get married"D. has different meanings in America and in BritainCMany of us don't pay much attention to the importance of eye care. It is said that if you take care of your body then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place.There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like having not enough food, genes and aging(老化). Televisions, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. If you happen to work in front of the computer, it is best to take a break every once in a while. Something dirty can cause redness and it will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes, too. If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses are not just for fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays.Eating healthy food will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises which can protect your eyesight, too. If a person exercises regularly and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time.All above are natural ways of eye care that help us to keep healthy eyes. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person's eyesight, too. In a word, eye care is very important, no matter how old a person is.8. is the most important way to protect our eyes.A. Nature eye careB. Taking medicineC. Seeing the doctorD. Being happy all the time9. All the following courses can lead to bad eyesight exceptA.agingB. heightC.readingD. computers10. What should you do if you have to work in front of the computer?A. Eat healthy food.B. Clean the eyes by using cold water.C. While a pile of sunglasses.D. Have a rest after working for a while.11. Which is the best title of the passage?A. Ways of Eye CareB. Ways of Eye ExercisesC. Ways of Being HappyD. Ways of Being HealthyDIf you want to become a fluent English speaker you should take some advice. There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of sentences, the meaning of unfamiliar words etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example, in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare a notebook for yourself so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skilful at your reading, and then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or, if you are goodat listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow this pieces of advice you are speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort, they will become perfect.12. According to the author, which should you improve first amount the four skills.A. Reading and listening.B. Reading and writing.C. Writing and speaking.D. Speaking and listening.13. To improve your reading, when you read you should .A. look up all new words in the dictionary.B. spend more time studying grammar.C.think about what you are reading actively.D. copy as many words and sentences as possible.14. The author seems to agree with the view that .A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day.B. you needn't practice listening if you keep on reading every day.C. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening.D. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing.15. The passage is mainly about how toA. choose suitable listening materials.B. deal with new words in reading.C. improve your English as quickly as possible.D. become good at English reading and listening.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。
辽源市第五中学校2020-2021学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题
辽源市第五中学校2020-2021学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择There are plenty of reasons why people go to the library. People go there mainly for school, for work, or for personal research. There are a few who make use of the library only when specific data or information can’t be had by any other means. No matter what your motivation for visiting the library is, you’ll surely want to set your eyes on the following four largest libraries in the worldWashington D.C.’s Library of CongressIf you’ve already watched the movie National Treasure 2, then you’ve already taken a glimpse of this magnificent library. Within this library, you’ll find all you need to answer your questions about culture, science, philosophy, history, and any other subject matter. It has been used in numerous movies. With a vast book collection at over 30 million and written in just about any language you can think of, the Library of Congress, established in 1800, definitely deserves all the fame. The public can visit the library, but only high-ranking American officials are allowed to check out books.Beijing’s National Library of ChinaSituated in Beijing and with 26.3 million books in its collection, the NLC is sure to give joy to the average bibliophile(藏书家) . Among its books, you’ll find the world’s greatest and richest complications of Chinese writings and ancient documents. Founded in 1909 and opened doors to the public three years after, the NLC also contains a lot of Qing Dynasty writings as well as a collection of literature written on bones and tortoise shells.Massachusetts’ Harvard University LibraryCompared to all the other libraries in universities in the world, Harvard University Library houses the most enormous private collection of books. Established in 1638, the Harvard Library is considered as America’s oldest. In 1764, a disastrous fire broke out and it turned a considerable number of books into ashes. Today, the library has a total of over 13 million books displayed in 90 library wings, each dealing with a particular field of study.London’s British LibraryWhen it comes to the number of items in its collection, the British Library , founded in1973, is unparalleled. It has over 150 million items, a lot of which are works circulated in the United Kingdom. The library also has scores of items from other countries and has books written in a number of languages. You will also discover that these works can be found in formats ranging from stone inscriptions(刻印文字) to digital publications. The growth rate of the British Library is 3 million pieces per year.1.Which library has the longest history?A.Washington D.C.’s Library of CongressB.Beijing’s National Library of ChinaC.Massachusetts’ Harvard University LibraryD.London’s Briti sh Library2.Which library has frequently appeared in numerous movies?A.Washington D.C.’s Library of CongressB.Beijing’s National Library of ChinaC.Massachusetts’ Harvard University LibraryD.London’s British Library3.It can be inferred from the passage that________.A.there exists the largest number of books in London’s British Library.B.people are free to check out books in Washington D.C.’s Library of Congress C.Beijing’s National Library of China was open to the public the moment it was founded D.Massachusetts’ Harvard University Library remained safe and sound because of the fire in 1764You’re sitting on the sofa, and there’s your dog, right at your feet. You stand up? He stands up. But then you head to the bathroom, and guess who comes with? Why, your dog, of course. But why? Why does your dog follow you like a shadow, no matter where you go?Ever get the feeling you're being followed? As for why your companion follows you everywhere you go, read on !“When dogs follow their owner s, there can be several scientific explanations, depending on the dog and the individual situation,”according to Mary Burch, Ph.D., an animal behaviorist(行为学家).These explanations include:Positive reinforcement(正面强化): When your dog follows you, good things happen.Think dog food, a hot bath and taking a walk around the neighborhood. Your dog’s no dummy. And one of his many talents is learning from experience, that is “reinforcement.”Natural instinct(本能) to be part of a pack: In fact, a study out of Princeton University that was published in the journal, Science Advances, shows that your dog’s drive (驱动力)to follow you around (as well as watch you attentively and seek physical contact (身体接触) from you) lies in his genes(基因).Feel good chemicals(化学物质): Your pr esence causes your dog’s brain to release “feel good” chemicals, Dr. Primm explains, citing this study. Considering how much we as humans enjoy those feel-good chemicals, it’s no surprise your dog likes them too—and will follow you around to get some!Sense of responsibility : As you move about your home, your dog might feel that you are patrolling your territory (巡视领地) and take on the duty to assist you.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.Explanations for some dog behaviors.B.Some natural instincts of the dogs.C.The reasons why dogs follow you.D.Dogs are good friends of human.5.How does the author introduce the topic?A.By listing numbers.B.By giving examples.C.By telling a story.D.By making a survey.6.What does the underlined word “dummy” mean i n Para 5?A.cute. B.considerate.C.stupid. D.lovely.7.Why does the dog like to be part of a pack?A.This kind of behaviour is reinforced.B.Dog’s brain releases chemicals.C.Dogs have sense of responsibility.D.It is passed from elder generations.It was a rainy day, and I had no desire to drive up the winding mountain road to mydaughter Carolyn’s house. But she had insisted that I come see something at the top of the mountain.So here I was, although unwilling to make the two-hour journey through fog and rain. After lunch, my daughter requested me to drive her to Barage. After a ten-minute drive, we parked the car and got out. We walked along a path that was thick with old pine needles. Huge black green evergreens towered over us. Gradually the peace and silence of the place began to fill my mind. Then we turned a corner and stopped----- and I gasped in amazement.From the top of the mountain to the slopes and valleys, were rivers of daffodils(水仙花) in full bloom. A sea of amazing colors, like a carpet before us.It looked as though the sun had tipped over and spilled(洒落) gold down the mountainside. At the center hung a waterfall of purple hyacinths. Here and there were breathtaking tulips.A series of questions filled my mind. Who created such beauty? When? How?As we approached(接近) the house , we saw a sign that read: “Answers to the Questions: I Know You Are Asking.” The first answer was: “One Woman-Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.” The second was: “One at a Time.” The third: “ Start in 1958.”I was so moved by what we had seen. “She changed the world,” I said, not getting over the shock, “one bulb at a time. She started almost 40 years ago, probably just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it.”“Imagine,” I said, “if I’d had a vision and worked at it, just a little bit every day, what might I have accomplished?”Carolyn looked at me, smiling. “Start tomorrow,” she said. “Better yet, start today.”8.Why did the author decide to visit her daughter?A.She missed her very much. B.She didn’t want to disappoint her. C.She must pick her up D.She has an urge to look at the sea of flowers.9.According to the text, which is true?A.There was a waterfall in the valley.B.The author was deeply moved by what she had seen.C.The author was very glad to go to her daughter’s home.D.It was raining when the author got to the top of the mountain.10.What did the author learn from the sign?A.Easier said than done B.Well begun, half doneC.Women can shake the world D.Little steps add up to big success 11.What’s the text mainly about?A.An amazing trip to Barage. B.A moving story of a mother’s love. C.A special sign on the way home. D.A valuable lesson from a woman.Britain has long been known for its love of tea, but people in London also drink a lot of coffee. In fact, the average Londoner reportedly drinks 2.3 cups of coffee every day. And now, waste coffee grounds will be used to help fuel part of the city’s transportation system.A technology company announced on Monday that some buses will be using a biofuel that contains coffee oil. The company, Bio-bean, and its partner, Argent Energy, say they have made enough coffee oil to power one of London’s famous double-decker buses for a year. The announcement made Bio-bean a trending story on social media.The government agency Transport for London has been turning to biofuels to cut production of carbon emissions. A carbon emission is a gas produced by the burning of carbon. The gas is released into the atmosphere. London’s mayor, Sadiq Khan, said last m onth that his city has a “health crisis….caused directly by poor-quality air.” The government has taken steps to discourage people from driving cars that do not meet European Union emissions requirements.Bio-bean said Londoners produce over 200,000 tons of coffee ground waste a year. The company said it collects waste grounds from chain coffee shops and factories. The grounds are dried and processed to remove the coffee oil.“It’s a great example of what can be done when we start to re-imagine waste as an untapped resource,” said Bio-bean founder’s Arthur Kay. The coffee fuel technology has been received support from the oil company Royal Dutch Shell.12.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.Tea is very popular with British people.B.Londoners love drinking coffee as well as tea at present.C.Nowadays, Londoners prefer drinking coffee to drinking tea.D.Waste coffee grounds will be made good use of in London’s transportation system. 13.What made the company Bio-bean much-concerned on social media?A.Collecting waste coffee groundsB.Cooperating with its partner, Argent EnergyC.Powering a double-decker bus using coffee oilD.Making coffee oil out of coffee waste coffee grounds14.What is Sadiq Khan’s attitude towards the cars using conventional fuels? A.Neutral. B.Concerned. C.Casual. D.Appreciative. 15.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A.The coffee fuel technology has earned wide-spread acceptance.B.The Bio-bean is the first company to turn some wastes into bio-fuels.C.The supply of coffee grounds waste in London is guaranteed in a way.D.People have not attached importance to some so-called wastes widely.二、七选五Most of us are too young to decide what we truly want to do for the rest of our lives. Fortunately, with proper planning, most of us have the chance to get a degree. 16.This article will help you get to know some degrees and make the best choice.An MBA is a common choice. But it’s important to recognize the divisions(划分)of an MBA and how each will pay out. 17.Students will learn how markets work and how organizations add to and benefit the economic environment.A degree in biomedical engineering is unique. It combines engineering with the biology of medicine. Engineering students will work alongside medical students to create cutting-edge technology. The coursework needs a lot of effort. 18.A degree in chemical engineering is another difficult but high-paying degree to get. 19.They will try to use chemical and biological process in engineering. The future is bright for these degree holders. Many research jobs and food science jobs are coming out.20.This new addition to engineering can really bring in a large amount of money. Students will focus on computers, mathematics and physics. All these combined will push them into upper-level engineering careers.A.But which degree will pay you the most?B.The next is electrical and computer engineering.C.Graduates should expect to continue in research.D.It is fair that nurses will bring in a higher paycheck.E.Students will study engineering with a chemical focus.F.Make sure you are doing an MBA at a widely accepted university.G.An MBA in economics will prepare you for a career in management or consulting.三、完形填空He lost his arms in an accident that claimed his father’s life---who was the main21 of support for the family.

It was not just sitting at the piano and playing. She had to research the songs, learn about copyright(版权), and learn about marketing. It was pretty amazing for someone who once said she was too old to learn. And finally she made it. Now she has her own CD-Mixed Blessings. Most of you probably have heard about some people who have gone back to university in their seventies and have also graduated. They are on their way again to charging themselves with a new skill and a new attitude towards life. The point is you are unable to learn anything at any age if you believe you are too old. On the contrary, you can achieve anything at any age if you believe you can.5.

Debra tried it, nodded and went out.After a few minutes, she and her mother both walked back in. We were having the rest of our meal at that time, so we told her what we had ordered. Debra then asked the waitress to just repeat our order for them. Next, Debra said, "And we want to pay for their meal", pointing to my wife and me. We tried to say no, but Debra wouldn’t listen.That was not the end of it. Hugs were in order. Debra came over to our table and my wife got up to hug her. Debra hugged my wife and put $100 into her hand. My wife firmly said NO, but Debra insisted. Debra kept talking about our kindness, and we did the same about hers and her mother’s.

I left the waiters a tip that would cover all of our meals and we were on our way.I’ve been witnessing so much kindness, especially over the last few years, as I began to pay more attention.

Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time – about eight hours after you wake up – your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later. In many parts of the world, people take naps in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problem such as heart disease.Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap –even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.13.Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the text?A.They eat too much for lunch.B.They sleep too little at night.C.Their body temperature becomes lower.D.The weather becomes a lot warmer.14.If you get up at 6:30 am, what is the best time for you to take a nap?A.About 12:30 pm. B.About 1:30 pm.C.About 2:30 pm. D.About 3:30 pm.15.Why do employers not allow workers to take naps?A.taking naps is no good for health.B.taking naps may lead to heart attack.C.taking naps may lead to low working efficiency.D.taking naps takes up the working time and reduces production.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5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。

AThe week -long Spring Festival holiday starting on Feb 11 is usually a busy, moneymaking movie screening season in China. It will see the release of eight movies, all domestic productions, according to the schedule already disclosed by film data platforms.Detective Chinatown 3, the newest installment in China’s well -received Detective Chinatown film franchise, topped the list of most -anticipated holiday films compiled by movie -ticketing platform Maoyan.A sequel to the 2018 comedy hit Detective Chinatown 2 that grossed 3.4 billion yuan ($526 million), Detective Chinatown 3 is set for release on the Spring Festival that falls on Feb 12.

The total box office revenue in the first ten days of 2021 exceeded 2 billion yuan, up by more than 730-million -yuan year on year.The market’s total earnings in 2020 were 20.4 billion yuan. Of these, the top 10 earners were all domestic productions, according to official figures.1.How many movies are set to hit theaters during the week -long Spring Festival holiday? A .Nine. B .Eight.C .Seven.D .Six.2.Which movie can’t you watch if you are only free on Feb 12? A .Hi, Mom B .Detective Chinatown 3.C .Boonie Bears: Tire Wild Life.D .My First Love is Eighteen Years Old . 3.Who are the target readers of the text?A .The general public.B .Movie experts.C .College freshmen.D .High school students.BOver the last decade, Grandpa Ron, as the students call him, has volunteered thousands of hours every year to be with local school children—but it wasn’t until classes moved online due to COVID -19 that Ron Jacobson realized his impact. That impact reached far deeper than being a school volunteer. And those students were now missing the hugs he gave them every mornings.Back in March 2020, Jacobson had already volunteered for 900 hours during the 2019-2020 school year by the time Cle Elum -Roslyn Elementary in Ronald, Washington, closed its doors and turned to online teaching.“These kids who relied on me being there for them had suddenly lost me,” Jacobson said. “When they started doing their schoolwork online, several said that they missed Grandpa Ron.”The school received so many requests for Grandpa Ron that it added Jacobson’s email address and home address to the school’s online directory (通讯录), allowing students to keep in touch with Jacobson. Students immediately began sending Jacobson emails and letters and even coming to his home to check up on him and offer to walk his dog.Jacobson now responds to each of the students, adding a bright spot to the students’ days and his own. “I am happy to listen to the kids’ problems as well,” Jacobson said. “I have heard from school teachers and parents how much this regular communication has changed the kids’ attitudes.The Veterans of Foreign Wars has honored Jacobson—a Vietnam veteran (老兵) —by naming him a此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号spokesman for their campaign, StillServing, which shows many ways America’s veterans continue serving even after leaving the army.“The Marine Corps taught me the two important things: finish the task and take care of your troops (军队). I’m still taking care of the troops,” Jacobson said.It’s just that they are 75 years younger than he is.4.How did the school react to the school kids’ requests?A.It sent Jacobson to visit them in person.B.It asked Jacobson to write to all of them.C.It showed every student’s email address.D.It offered Jacobson’s contact information.5.How did Jacobson feel about the online communication with the students?A.Pleased.B.Worried.C.Tired.D.Confused.6.Why was veteran Jacobson regarded a spokesman for StillServing?A.He still served in the army.B.He trained many volunteers.C.He continued to serve others.D.He encouraged kids to serve.7.What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to?A.School teachers.B.Vietnam veterans.C.Local school kids.D.Young volunteers.CA popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, that’s not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn’t matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves — the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We’re usually too ashamed to admit it, though. In fact, we really shouldn’t be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!”Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably answer in a similar manner. Or harsh(刻薄的) and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.Words have power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊) and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.8.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A.Not sticks and stones but words will hurt usB.Encouraging words give us confidenceC.Negative words may let us downD.Words have a great effect on us9.Why there is no need for us to feel ashamed when we talk to ourselves?A.Almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves.B.Talking to ourselves can has positive effect on us.C.Talking to ourselves always gives us courage.D.It does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone.10.What does the underlined sentence mean?A.Praise ourselves. B.Remind ourselvesC.Make ourselves relaxed. D.Give ourselves happiness11.What can we learn from the text?A.Encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers.B.Negative words may stimulate us to make more progress.C.People tend to remember friendly words.D.It is better to think twice before talking to others.DIf you are fond of learning languages, you must start learning Chinese. English is the most widely spoken language in the world and it is a more powerful language in all fields. But it is expected thatChinese, which is one of the six official languages of the United Nations (UN), will be the most important2language in the coming years. What are the reasons behind the rapid spread of this language and why should you learn it?My desire to learn languages was the reason why I studied many Latin languages and in the process, I deepened my knowledge of the languages and literature. However, I did not feel self-sufficient (自给自足的) from this knowledge. I gained a lot of information about the Western world. But my thinking was always about Asian civilizations. I always felt I needed to learn Chinese to be a global citizen because “without learning Chinese, we see with one eye”.My contact with many international organizations and government institutions made me believe that Chinese is one of the most important languages of our time. After visiting the world’s most celebrated capitals such as Paris and London, I discovered that Chinese language can be seen everywhere in these places. In the subway in Paris, you will hear instructions in French, English and Chinese. In London, for example, the Chinese language was introduced for instruction in schools.China is an important political and economic country because it is making great economic progress that has never been seen before. The world is watching China with great surprise, and this peaceful Chinese rise makes us decide to focus on learning the Chinese language and knowing more about Chinese culture.To be a global citizen these days, I would advise you to learn Chinese. It will add more beauty to your life and allow you to better understand Chinese civilization.12.What can we learn about languages in the future according to the first paragraph?A.Some of them will disappear.B.More official languages will be added to the UN.C.English will still have an advantage over others.D.Chinese language will probably be second to none.13.What do the examples in Paragraph 3 show?A.Paris is a wonderful capital city worth a visit.B.Chinese learning is very popular in schools in London.C.People in some western countries like speaking Chinese.D.Chinese language is playing an important role in the world.14.What mainly causes Westerners to start learning Chinese according to the text?A.The rise of Chinese economy.B.Their love for language learning.C.Their curiosity about Asian culture.D.The long history of Chinese civilization.15.What could be the best title for the text?A.How to be a global citizenB.Chinese — the language you must learnC.What you should know about Chinese cultureD.Chinese economy—the most powerful engine第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

Not wanting to keep the superstar waiting, I arrived at nine, 20 minutes early. As I was catching up on e-mails, Selena quietly scooted into the seat next to me. No bodyguard. Not even a drop of makeup. She was ten minutes early and so inconspicuous that no one else in the restaurant looked up so much. Selena was wearing Bebe shorts. She had a baby face and ordered a hot chocolate.After making small talk about what she wore for the shoot, she dived into the subject of her career. Selena declared 2012 the year of movies. She filmed three: Spring Breakers, a drama; The Getaway, an action flick; and Hotel Transylvania, a comedy. Each is a marked move away from the teen style that made her a household name.Now that her Disney days are behind her, Selena is at that unstable point in a child star's career where she is trying to grow up-both as a person (she turned 20 in July) and as an artist. “Being part of the Disney Channel was a blessing, and I'm super happy with what my show accomplished, but acting is something I would like to take on more seriously.” She continued, “I don't necessarily feel accomplished. I want to create a whole different persona when it comes to acting.”Selena has been working full time since she was seven years old and scored a role on Barney & Friends. In 2007, when she was offered the lead in Wizards of Waverly Place, Selena, her mother, and her stepfather uprooted from Grand Prairie, Texas, to LA, where they are settling now.4.When did Selena arrive at the low-key coffee shop?A.At 10:00.B.At 9:10.C.At 8:50.D.At 9:30.5.The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means .

A nearby farmer told Joe that there was gold in the soil of his new land. Joe believed and told his sons about it.His sons actually began digging for gold in the land. Once they finished one piece they would start another. They began to realize that digging for gold was fun! Seeing that, Joe thought he would plant some crops where the dirt had been turned thoroughly. He planted com, tomatoes, and potatoes. His sons continued to dig through the soil, determined to find gold.As each different crop became ready to be harvested, Joe started to realize that there was more than he and his family could ever eat. One of Joe 's neighbors suggested that he set up a vegetable stand. Joe and his wife did that very thing. This process went on for three years and Joe and his wife became quite rich from it. They were even able to send their sons off to college.Remember at the beginning of the story Joe was told by his new neighbor that there was gold in the land? Well, the truth is, Joe' s understanding of the English language was less than perfect. His new neighbor friend actually told him that his land had rich soil.Go out and believe that there is gold in all your challenges so that you can be inspired to pursue(追求)all that you need. The fate will never give up on you, if you never give up on yourself.8.What made Joe believe that there was actual gold in his land?A.His desire to send his sons to college. B.His dream to become wealthy.C.His poor understanding of English. D.His trust in his neighbor.9.Joe's three sons took digging for gold asA.a pleasure B.a challengeC.a lie D.a dream10.How did Joe deal with his too many crops?A.By leaving them in the landB.By selling them to others.C.By giving them away to neighbors.D.By exchanging them for gold.11.The best title for this passage would beA.Telling a white lieB.Achieving wealth from landC.Digging for goldD.Accepting challenges in lifeTime TravelIf you could travel in time,where would you go?Perhaps you would watch a performance of a Shakespeare's play in Elizabethan England?What about hanging out with Laozi in the Spring and Autumn Period?Or maybe you'd voyage far ahead of the present day to see what the future holds.The possibility of time travel is indeed appealing.Stories exploring the subject have been around for hundreds of years.Perhaps the best known example is science fiction novel The Time Machine,which was written by H.G.Wells and published in 1895 for the first time.It was adapted into at least two feature films of the same name,as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations.It is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively.The term"time machine",coined by Wells,is now universally used to refer to a vehicle transporting people into the far future.But could time travel actually be possible?Some scientists say yes,in theory.They propose using cracks in time and space called"wormholes",which could be used as shortcuts to other periods.Einstein's theory of relativity allows time travel in extreme circumstances. And British physicist Stephen Hawking says you could travel into the future with a really fast spaceship-going at nearly the speed of light.Though building such a spaceship would of course be no simple task.Even if you could travel into the past,there is something called the"grandfather paradox".It asks what would happen if a time traveler were to go back in time and have his own grandfather killed for some reason,and therefore prevent himself from being born.If the time traveler wasn't born,how would he travel back in time?And would you really like to visit the future?In H.G.Wells' book,the main character travels into distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs.He then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles(触角)。

It is the largest wilderness in the whole country and makes up 25% of the wetlands in the state. The park is home to several rare and endangered species. It is also the third largest national park in the US, after Death V alley and Yellowstone. Each year, about 1 million tourists visit the park. On a global level, it has been announced as a World Heritage Site.Unlike most other national parks, Everglades National Park was created to protect an ecosystem (生态系统) from damage. In 1947, President Harry Truman spoke at the official opening of Everglades National Park, saying the goal of creating the park was to protect forever a wild area that could never be replaced.10,000 different islands make up Everglades National Park. Each of these islands is lived by natural wildlife. The Everglades is home to about 15 species that are endangered. In addition, more than 350 bird species and 300 species of fresh and saltwater fish live within the park. The Everglades is also home to 40 species of mammals and 50 reptile species.There are many ways to explore the Everglades. Visitors can see alligators (短吻鳄) while hiking the Anhinga Trail. The Everglades is one of the only places on Earth where freshwater alligators and saltwater crocodiles live in the same area. Visitors using airboats are likely to see large groups of birds. Some visitors might enjoy riding bicycles through Shark Valley. Others may want to move slowly through waters where they can see insects and wildlife closely.According to experts, changes to the Everglades are becoming a danger to several different kinds of wildlife. They say it is a result of actions the US government began more than 50 years ago, and settlers began even earlier.24. In the first paragraph, we’re mainly told that ________.A. Florida is famous for its wetlandsB. the US has three important national parksC. Everglades National Park is of great valueD. Everglades National Park is popular with visitors25. How does the author describe the richness of wildness in the park?A. By listing numbers.B. By personally experiencing.C. By making a comparison.D. By carrying on a study.26. From the passage, we know that _______.A. in fact Everglades National Park is a big islandB. visitors are not allowed to stay in the water in the parkC. President Harry Truman first suggested setting up the parkD. the park is among the few places where alligators and crocodiles live together27. What would be further discussed if the passage is continued?A. What the government has done to protect the park.B. How the park’s environment was badly changed.C. What readers can do to help to save the wetlands.D. How important endangered wildlife is to the world.CJanus, the Roman god, has two faces looking in opposite directions. So does artificial intelligence (AI). On one side are the positive changes, enabling people to achieve more, far more quickly, by using technology to improve their existing skills. Look the other way, though, and there are plenty of hidden pitfalls.Like Janus, technological change may also cause disruption(混乱), but AI is likely to have a bigger impact than anything since the appearance of computers, and its results could be far more disruptive.In the years ahead, AI will raise three big questions for bosses and governments. One is the effect on jobs. Although CEOs publicly praise the broad benefits AI will bring, their main interest lies in cutting costs. One European bank asked Information Systems to find a way of reducing the staff in its operations department from 50,000 to 500. The McKinsey Global Institute predicts that by 2030 up to 375 million people, or 14% of the global workforce, could have their jobs replaced by AI.A second important question is how to protect privacy as AI spreads. The Internet has already made it possible to track people’s digital behavior in minute detail. AI will offer even better tools for businesses to monitor(跟踪) consumers and employees, both online and in the physical world. Consumers are sometimes happy to get along with this if it results in personalized service or promotions. But AI must bring invasion(入侵) of privacy that is seen as unacceptable. For example, law-enforcement officials around the world will use AI to find criminals, but may also monitor ordinary people.The third question is about the effect of AI on competition in business. A technology company that makes major progress in artificial intelligence could race ahead, put others out of business and lessen competition. This is unlikely to happen in the near future, but if it did,it would be of great worry.It is too early to tell whether the positive changes brought by AI will be bigger than the risk. But it will put an end to traditional ways of doing things and start a new time for business and for the world.28. Janus is mentioned to .A. introduce the topicB. praise the Roman godC. tell its differenceD. support AI29. The underlined word “pitfalls” in paragraph 1 is probably means .A. resultsB. risksC. effectsD. benefits30. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. AI is a double-edged sword.B. People show great worry about AI.C. privacy is threatened by AI.D. AI will enjoy a bright future.31. What’s the author’s attitude towards AI?A. Objective.B. Positive.C. Worried.D. Subjective.DBirthdays are especially important to the very young and the very old. On their birthdays, people receive birthday cards and birthday presents from their family and friends. Children’s cards often have a large number on them showing how old they are. Cards for adults have pictures of flowers or scenery, or humorous or rude cartoons. Inside there is usually a simple greeting, such as “Happy Birthday” or “Many Happy Returns of the Day.”In the US, children who have their birthdays during the school year take a cake to school and have a small party with their classmates. In Britain, children sometimes get Bumped (lifted off the ground horizontally and put down again sharply) by their friends.In the US, the 16th birthday is called sweet 16. It is the age at which a person can get a US driver’s license, and some wealthier parents give their children a car as a present. At 18, in Britain and in the US, young people become adults and many have a big party. In most parts of the US, 21 is the age at which people can drink alcohol legally.In Britain, people celebrate 21st birthday less. Many adults dislike getting older and a few lie about their age. But in general, older people are now much more willing to tell others their age. You may see a sign by the side of a road saying: “Dave Ell is 40 today!”, put there by Dave’s friends. At about 65, people retire, and those who have reached this age are called senior citizens. Few people live to be 100, so a 100th birthday is very special. In Britain, people reaching this age may receive card containing a printed message from the Queen.32. What’s the main character of children’s birthday cards?A. They are full of pictures of scenery.B. There are some flowers on them.C. There is a large number on them.D. They have greetings written on them.33. In the last paragraph, the example “Dave Ellis 40 today” shows ______.A. The 40th birthday is very specialB. Many adults like lying about their ageC. Dave’s friends like playi ng jokes on him.D. Older people don’ t mind telling others their age now34. If a person reaches 65, he can ______.A. be called a senior citizenB. refuse to talk about his ageC. receive a card from the queenD. be invited to dinner with the Queen35. We can infer from the passage that _______.A. Bars in the US are forbidden to sell alcohol to young people under 21B. In Britain, 18 means young people become adultsC. Young people will get a car as the 16th birthday present in the USD. British young men love to celebrate the 21st birthday【答案】21---25 CDC 26---30 CADB 27---31 ABAA 32---35 CDAB吉林省扶余市第二实验学校2020-2021学年高一下学期第一次月考英语试卷第二部分阅读理解(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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

No matter what your motivation for visiting the library is, you’ll surely want to set your eyes on the following four largest libraries in the worldWashington D.C.’s Library of CongressIf you’ve already watched the movie National Treasure 2, then you’ve already taken a glimpse of this magnificent library. Within this library, you’ll find all you need to answer your questions about culture, science, philosophy, history, and any other subject matter. It has been used in numerous movies. With a vast book collection at over 30 million and written in just about any language you can think of, the Library of Congress, established in 1800, definitely deserves all the fame. The public can visit the library, but only high-ranking American officials are allowed to checkout books.Beijing’s National Library of ChinaSituated in Beijing and with 26.3 million books in its collection, the NLC is sure to give joy to the average bibliophile(藏书家) .

Established in 1638, the Harvard Library is considered as America’s oldest. In 1764, a disastrous fire broke out and it turned a considerable number of books into ashes. Today, the library has a total of over 13 million books displayed in 90 library wings, each dealing with a particular field of study.London’s British LibraryWhen it comes to the number of items in its collection, the British Library , founded in 1973, is unparalleled. It has over 150 million items, a lot of which are works circulated in the United Kingdom. The library also has scores of items from other countries and has books written in a number of languages.

The relics were uncovered in six pits(坑) 42 date back to the late Shang Dynasty."Thanks to the new discoveries, we've basically found out the 43 of the Sanxingdui site," said Lei Yu, a researcher at the Sichuan Provincial Cultural Relics and Archaeology Research Institute who guides the excavation.The about 12-square-kilometer site was discovered in 1929, and major progress was made in 1986 with the discovery of two pits,which were 44 discovered by local farmers digging up earth to make bricks.45 to China Daily why the new round of excavations has come after so many years, Lei said the 46 excavations of pits No. 1 and No. 2 were made to rescue handmade works after the accidental discovery.The biggest 47 the six pits, the No. 8 pit, is 19 square meters. The smallest, No. 5, which covers 3.5 sq m, is where the most recent gold mask was found.Lei 48 there were many similarities among the more recently discovered pits and the two found in 1986, talking of the types of handmade works unearthed.The 49 discoveries further prove the theory that the pits were used for sacrificial (祭献的)purposes because many of things found in them had been broken up and burned before being buried. Lei said that 50 study is still needed."These handmade works show the Sanxingdui site had a close 51 with Central China, but it also marks an 52 ancient culture (in Sichuan) with strong creativity," said Chen Xiandan, a member of the project. Then he said. "The 53 is not only show the handmade works. We don't want to miss any information hidden in the 54 ."Lei expects the findings at Sanxingdui will help to 55 a system for studying the Shu culture, as well as other research at nearby sites in Sichuan. "Sanxingdui and sites in Central China reflect some shared cultural 56 , breaking down the barriers(屏障) brought by long geographic 57 ," said Zhang Changping, an archaeology professor at Wuhan University.The 58 discoveries at Sanxingdui have caused great public interest.

AAfter a long week, sometimes a short getaway is in order. However, deciding which destination to travel to can be tough when you only have a weekend to spend. To help you choose the right trip,U.S.News considered factors like accessibility, affordability and entertainment options, as well as reader votes, to determine which cities offer the best setting for a weekend away.New York CityVisitors can reach New York City by train,plane or automobile,so weekend getaways are easy. Plus,abundant(大量的)indoor attractions (like museums and Broadway shows) make unpredictable weather a nonissue.For historical attractions,take the ferry to Ellis Island or the Statue of Liberty.ChicagoChicago's various neighborhoods and abundance of must-see sights make it a great weekend vacation spot.On warmer days, snap a selfie in front of “The Bean” and go aboard an architecture river cruise (乘船游览). Meanwhile,museums like the Art Institute of Chicago and the Field Museum are ideal places to escape winter's biting temperatures.TorontoHop across Lake Ontario to our northern neighbor for an urban escape. It's tough to see all of Toronto in just a few days,but first-timers can hit the high points,such as the CN Tower,the St. Lawrence Market and the Hockey Hall of Fame. Save an evening to explore the Distillery District. Washington,D.C.America's capital is full of free attractions,and many of them are concentrated on the National Mall,making it easy to see the Lincoln Memorial,the Washington Monument and other highlights in just a few days.While visiting,don't miss out on the popular weekend brunch(早午餐)scene-----just remember to make reservations in advance.21. What makes choosing a destination a hard job?A. The lack of money.B.The limited time.C.The abundant attractions.D.The lack of touring experience.22. Where can you go if you want to visit the St. Lawrence Market?A.New York City.B.Chicago.C.Toronto.D.Washington,D.C.23.What could visitors do in Washington, D.C.?A.Visit the Lincoln Memorial.B.Explore the Hockey Hall of Fame.C.View the city on the CN Tower.D. Enjoy the architectures by a river cruise.BI went out to breakfast this morning to meet a friend. It was lovely. But what wasn't so lovely was theattitude of the lady who took our order. She spoke in a way that made her sound frustrated,unhappy, unfriendly,and sort of rude.When it came to my turn to approach her and order,I thought to myself,“What can I do here to make her day?”Surely there must be something I can sincerely compliment her on.Then there it was.I knew instantly.Or to be more accurate,I heard instantly. It was her voice. She had the most unbelievably well-spoken and clear voice.It was so good.That was it. That was what I would compliment her on.So, after she had taken my order and given me the same unfriendly attitude, I told her, “I hope you don't mind me saying but you have the most amazing voice. It's so clear, well-spoken and it sounds so professional.You have the type of voice that would be perfect for announcements, or even radio.” Her face lit up. She smiled (the first time I had seen her do so) and as I left and walked away, I noticed her whole attitude change.The customer behind me received a totally different kind of service, a happier one,all because of what I did,something that was so simple.There was a time when doing this sort of thing would have embarrassed the hell out of me, or I'd have been way too shy and awkward to say such a thing. Now I feel it's my duty to do it. Why? Because I have the power,the power to completely change someone's day with something as simple as a few kind words. You have this power, too. We all do.24.What made the author uncomfortable this morning?A. The rudeness of the friend.B. The poor quality of the food.C. The way the lady taking the order spoke.D.The noise customers made in the restaurant.25. Why did the author want to compliment the lady on her voice?A.To make her cheerful.B. To make friends with her.C.To receive her good service.D. To persuade her to work in radio.26. How did the lady react to the author's words?A. She walked away with an angry look.B.She changed her attitude towards customers.C. She paid no attention to the words.D. She applied for a job as a radio announcer.27.What is the best title of the text?A.An Unkind LadyB.The Amazing V oiceC.A Great Change in My DayD.The Power of KindnessCSince the earliest days of the United Sates, Americans have begun their day by eating whatever is most easily available. These foods often include bread,eggs or leftovers ------food left over from the night before.Today,ease is still an important factor when it comes to breakfast.However,what people eat has changed over time.Some of today's common breakfast foods,such as cereals(谷类食物),are popular because of very effective marketing.“Advertising was practically invented to sell cereals. One of the first wa ys advertising was successfully or effectively used was to convince mothers that it was okay for their children to eat instant cereals. They offered working mothers a chance to let kids take care of themselves in the morning,”says Heather A rndt Anderson.She is the writer of the book Breakfast: A History.Advertising also played an important part in orange juice becoming a morning drink. In 1916, farmers grew more oranges than usual,so advertisers began saying,“Drink an orange.” They aimed to persuade people that drinking orange juice was a healthy way to start the day.Pancakes have also been around for a very long time. Researchers believe the world's oldest naturallypreserved human mummy(木乃伊)ate a pancake-like food as one of his last meals. Researchers think pancakes may have been made in the morning because they are much quicker to prepare than bread. Cooks could then have time to make fresh bread for dinner.Americans still eat some of the same breakfast foods ----- like bread and eggs ------ that their ancestors did.Writer Heather Arndt Anderson notes that people's concerns about healthy food choices have also stayed the same.She hopes more Americans will see leftovers as breakfast foods.After all,they taste good and are a great way to reduce waste.28.What is the advantage of the instant cereal?A.

The huge body of ice is in the southeastern edge of a Central Asian region called the Third Pole, which is about 4.5 million square kilometers in area and holds the world's third largest collection of ice after Antarctica and Greenland.The Third Pole glaciers are critical to billions of people from Vietnam to Afghanistan.Seasonal glacier melting feeds Asia's 10 largest rivers, including the Yangtze, Yellow, Mekong, and Ganges.Ashley Johnson is an energy and economics expert at the National Bureau of Asian Research,based in the United States.She says,“The Third Pole is one of the world's largest source s of fresh drinking water and an increase in melting from climate change may put that at risk. Depending on how it melts, a lot of fresh water will be leaving the region for the ocean.”For years,scientists have observed global warming change Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the Chinese province of Yunnan.One research team has recorded Baishui's decrease at about 27 meters per year over the last 10 years.
