These days, people who do manual (体力的) work often receive far more money than people who work in offices. People who work in offices are frequently referred to as “white-collar workers” for the simple reason that they usually wear a collar and tie to go to work. Such is human nature, that a great many people are often willing to sacrifice higher pay for the honor of becoming white-collar workers. This can lead to curious situations, as it did in the as a dustman for the Ellesmere Corporation.

C．Visiting scholars funding projects.D．Vice-Chancellor’s EU ScholarshipDuring my first seven semesters as a medical student at GadjahMada University in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, I spent a period of time gathering data for my research paper at Dr. Sardjito Hospital.One cold, rainy evening, I was in the ward (病房) desperately “hunting” for the final three patients I needed to complete my study. The records showed that there was a43-year-old stroke patient, whom I will call Ms A, in the ward. Holding a patient questionnaire, I walked towards her room. There were no relatives or friends with her. When I told her that I wanted to gather some additional information from her, she agreed.After I finished, I prepared to leave. Before I could stand up, Ms A spoke up in her weak voice “Doc, do you think I can get back my normal life?” I could tell her what I had learned about the recovery of stroke patients, but I failed to go into too much detail as I was only a medical student.Then Ms A started talking about herself. She told me that she had three children in primary school, who were staying with a neighbour. “My husband died a year ago and I’m the only breadwinner of my family. We are not rich and my pay as a cleaner is exactly enough forme and my kids.” I didn’t know what to say. Looking into her eyes I desperately tried to remember the lessons from a communication skills class I had taken a few years earlier, but my mind was blank. I regretted not paying more attention. I just sat quietly while she talked, and that’s when it occurred to me that she was not expecting any reply from me. She just wanted me to listen.Finally, Ms As topped talking. “I’m very sorry for keeping you here to listen to my problems.” Finally, I knew what to say. “It’s OK, Ma’am. It’s part of my duty.” Ms A taught me one of the most important lessons a doctor can learn. Sometimes patients do not need expensive medicine or state-of-the-art technology. They just need someone with the patience and willingness to lend an ear and spare a little of their time. For me, that is one of the best things a doctor can do for a patient.4．Why did the author visit Ms A’s ward?A．Because the author knew her before.B．Because the author felt sympathy for her.C．Because the author was hunting for her patients.D．Because the author needed to collect data for her research.5．Why did Ms A ask the question in the third paragraph?A．Because she wanted to know more about her illness.B．Because she feared no one could raise her children any more.C．Because she wanted to test if the author was qualified.D．Because she thought she had fully recovered already.6．What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?A．Ms A was the only person who brought bread home in her family.B．Ms A was disappointed at not receiving any response.C．The author was not willing to answer Ms A’s question in detail.D．The author was not good at communication skills.7．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．My Unexpected Teacher B．How To Be A Sympathetic Ear? C．Communication Skills Matter D．How To Gather Data For Thesis?Robin Hood famously stole from the rich and gave to the poor. Young, newly hatched barn owls (猫头鹰) do something similar.On average, barn owls raise six chicks at once-and sometimes as many as nine. But they don’t all hatch at the same time, which means the older owlets are generally larger and healthier than their younger brothers and sisters. As long as the little owls remain in the nest, they’re completely dependent on their parents for food. The problem is that the small meat that they eat can’t be divided. So when Mom or Dad returns to the nest to feed their babies only one chick can eat a time.In many bird species, the oldest would simply outcompete the youngest, but barn owls are different. It turns out the older, healthier birds sometimes donate their meals to their hungrier siblings (兄弟姐妹).Adults in other animal species share their food. “It’s mainly observed when males want to reproduce with females, so there are many exchanges of food. Or in primates (灵长类动物), there are many of food and grooming (cleaning and brushing) but only in adults.”Evolutionary biologist Pauline Ducouret from the University of Lausanne in Switzerland said “And in chicks, it is really rarely observed. So it’s quite impressive that in this species, there are so many cooperative behaviors.” She and her team wanted to know how this unique behavior developed. It could be explained by the direct benefits gained through cooperation, such as trading food for grooming. Or it could be explained by the indirect benefits gained from helping others that share your genetic heritage — also known as relative selection.They found that the answer was both. Younger birds groomed older ones more often than older ones groomed the youngsters. And in return, the older birds fed their younger siblings. In addition, older owlets preferentially offered food to their hungriest siblings, even in the absence of grooming.But food sharing only happened when the researchers artificially provided the owlets with extra food. So it’s not that the owls risked their own survival to help their siblings. But when there was more than enough to go around, they shared instead of storing. The results are in the journal the American Naturalist.Ducouret says that evolutionary biologists usually characterize sibling relationships as competitive. But remarkably complex examples of cooperation can still be found among animal brothers and sisters. It seems that even newly hatched barn owls know that sharing is caring.8．What is the feeding pattern in a barn owl’s family?A．One chick will enjoy the food alone at a time.B．They share the food their parents bring home together.C．The older, healthier chicks feed the younger ones first and have what is left over. D．The younger chicks in the nest will sometimes find the food by themselves.9．Which of the following is TRUE?A．Older and healthier owls will not give away their food if they don’t have enough. B．Cooperation always exists among family members to avoid fighting.C．Pauline Ducouret felt that barn owls cooperation is normal because it is commonly seen. D．Adults cooperative behaviours only take place when males want to reproduce with females.10．Why did younger chicks groom older ones more often?A．They were kind of bored.B．They wanted to be more competitive.C．They did this in exchange for food.D．They were afraid of being bullied by older chicks.11．Which can be the best title for the text?A．Sharing Is Caring B．Trading For FoodC．Feeding The Young D．Grooming The SiblingsUrban gentrification is thought to happen like this: artists move into lower income neighborhoods, looking for cheap gallery and living space. “So they move into these neighborhoods, and they make these neighborhoods really pleasant to live in. They kind of create a nice kind of lively and exciting scene” Chanuki Seresinhe, a data scientist at the Warwick Business School, in the U.K. Next come the fashionable cafes and shops. “But what happens is of course then other people are then attracted to move into these areas. And so the demand for these places increases and housing prices then go up.”So the story goes. But Seresinhe and her colleagues wanted to see if online data told the same story. So they analyzed four and a half million photos uploaded to Flickr, from 2004 to 2013 — each geotagged (地理标签) somewhere in London. Then they recorded how many of each neighborhood’s photos were marked “art”. And they found that neighborhoods with a higher percentage of “art” marked photos actually did see a higher increase in housing prices during the study period. The results are in the journal Royal Society Open Science.Foursquare and Twitter data can also track gentrification changes, as another recentstudy showed. But the link here isn’t necessarily predictive-maybe neighborhoods with rising prices just attract more photo-tagging art lovers. “That’s why I wouldn’t say, you know, go out and buy a house in an artsy neighborhood, you’re going to be rich in five years’ time. Because sometimes there could be other factors involved.”But the connection does suggest your photos and social media posts can be used for more than showing off about brunch. “Sharing this data could be so valuable for academic research. We can actually use this data to do something good in the world.” Like giving local organizations and urban planners a better look at how and why cities change. All you’ve got to do, is add a few marks.12．What contributes to the rise of the housing prices in a particular area?A．Fancy cafes and shops appear.B．Lower income residents pour in.C．The neighborhoods enjoy large living spacesD．Cheap galleries are constructed after artists move in.13．How did Seresinhe and her colleagues do the survey?A．They analyzed some previous figures.B．They did the survey from 2004 to 2013.C．They uploaded four and a half million photos to Flickr.D．They studied numerous photos marked “art” in London on Flickr.14．What is the relationship between art and rising housing prices?A．There is no necessary connection.B．Art can surely lead to a high housing price.C．A neighborhood with a high housing price must be artsy.D．Artists are responsible to promote a high housing price.15．What does the underlined word “gentrification” in paragraph 1 probably refer to? A．The diversity from few to many.B．The replacement from a village to a city.C．The change from nothing to somethingD．The process from the lower to the upper.Stop being a prisoner of your own painNo one is a stranger to pain. Sometimes you can become imprisoned by your own pain.Here are some tips to help.It won’t last forever___16___. It tells you that there’s something wrong. For example your aching head is warning you to the fact that you’re tired and stressed.

During World War II, British ships were always watching for German submarines calledU﹣boats． The ship Ben Lomond had left Cape Town, South Africa, with 55sailors, including a young man named Poon Lim．On November 23, 1942, the Ben Lomond was attacked by a U﹣boat． Within minutesthe boat was sinking． Poon Lim grabbed a life jacket and leaped over the side． He swam rapidly away from the ship in case it exploded． Sure enough, it let out a large ________and sank beneath the waves． For two hours Poon Lim struggled in the water． Later hesaw a life raft（救生艇） that was empty, swam to it, and climbed aboard． He found afew supplies enough for about a month．Day after day Poon Lim searched the horizon for ships． Twice he leaped up to shout and wave when he saw help coming． Once he saw a ship． It passed him． At a later time, he saw a United States Navy plane． It flew low over the raft but then disappeared． Still latera U﹣boat spotted him but somehow left him alone．Poon Lim knew he needed to stay strong． He couldn't get much exercise on an eight﹣foot﹣square raft, but he could swim． A couple of times a day, he circled the raft, always watching for sharks． Soon his food and water ran low． He knew that drinking seawater would make him sick, so he tore off his life jacket and set it out to catch rainwater．Then he took apart his flashlight and used a wire inside to make a fishhook． For months Poon Lim drifted, catching fish and sometimes birds． One time he even caught ashark． Finally, after 130 days, he noticed that the color of the water was changing． Two days later, on his 133rd day, three sailors in a small sailboat picked him up and took him to Belem, a city on the coast of Brazil． Poon Lim had crossed the Atlantic Ocean．No one ever had survived longer on a raft at sea． Poon Lim received manyhonors, including Britain's highest award． A booklet of his survival methods was put into every British life raft．（1）What does the underlined word "boom" in paragraph 2 mean？________A. a sudden increaseB. a life raftC. a loud deep soundD. a giant wave．（2）Why did Poon Lim circle around his raft several times every day？________A. He did it just for fun．B. He needed to watch for sharks．C. He wanted to work out．D. He intended to catch some fish．．（3）What can we infer about Poon Lim？________A. He is smart and tough．B. He is determined and modest．C. He is lucky and gentle．D. He is strong and humorous．2. Did you know that birthdays were not always celebrated? The idea seems to have started in Egypt more than 5, 000 years ago． In those times only members of royal families celebrated their birthdays． The Greeks and Romans adopted the Egyptian ideas．For a while the Greeks borrowed the idea of birthday cakes from the Persians． The cake was made to honor Artemis, the moon goddess． Candles may have been used to stand for the shining of the moon． Because the moon becomes full about once everymonth, Artemis also had a birthday every month!Later, just before the start of the first century A．D, the Romans started making a national holiday out of the birthdays of famous leaders． There might be a parade, a special sporting event, and a banquet in honor of the leader． Over the next threecenturies, birthday celebrations became less popular． In many places celebrations were held in honor of people at the time of their death instead．Children's birthday parties probably didn't become important until the 1200s in Germany． The birthday boy or girl would wake up to a cake topped with candles﹣one for each year plus one as the "light of life"． However, the cake wasn't for breakfast． The candles were kept going （and were changed as they burned out） until afterdinner． Special gifts were part of the birthday celebration, and the boy or girl could select the foods for the day． When it came time to blow out the candles, the birthday child made a wish and had to blow out all the candles at once． The wish had to be kept a secret．We recognize most of the German customs today． One of them, however, did not last． It was the Birthday Man who brought extra gifts．You might think the song we sing at birthday parties is based on some old folk song． The real story is that two Kentucky sisters wrote the tune and a set of words in 1893． Their song, originally Good Morning to All, had become Happy Birthday to You by 1924, and it was used in Broadway shows and movies．（1）What can we know from paragraph 1&2？________A.Human beings have celebrated birthdays since they came into being．B.In ancient Egypt， common people didn't celebrate their birthdays．C.The Greeks were the first to come up with the idea of birthday cakes．D.The first birthday in history was celebrated for the moon goddess．．（2）If a 7﹣year﹣old German boy celebrated his birthday in the 1200s， what was most likely to happen？________A.He had a birthday cake topped with 7 candles．B.He told his birthday wish to his elder sister．C.He enjoyed the cake with his friends at 8：00 am．D.He prepared some extra presents for the celebration．．（3）What is the passage mainly about？________A.The significance of birthday celebrations．B.The development of birthday celebrations．C.Different birthday celebrations in different countries．D.A comparison between past and present birthday celebrations．3. Since humans first walked the earth, we have relied on plants for our survival． They provide us with food, shelter, medicine and even the oxygen we breathe． Now, a group of scientists is wondering if they can protect us from climate change as well．Researchers in San Diego launched a new initiative to improve the ability of plants to suck carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and store it deep in the soil． One of the group's goals is to find a way to help plants better keep the carbon they absorb from the atmosphere securely locked away in the soil．All plants make a substance called suberin（软木脂） that protects their roots．You are likely familiar with it even if you don't know it． It's the material that makes up the skin of a potato．The unique properties of suberin help plants in many ways． It makes them more tolerant of drought and, at the same time, better able to survive floods． It also serves as protection against disease． But perhaps most importantly for the group's goals, suberin is a substance which is very difficult for bacteria and fungi to break down． Further research in the lab revealed that suberin is one of the most stable forms of carbon in the soil． That means once carbon from the atmosphere makes it into the ground in the form of suberin, it will stay put．Armed with this information, one of the group's first goals is to breed a variety of plants that can produce more suberin than they currently do． "We want them to make bigger and deeper roots with more suberin, " said Joanne Chory, a plant biologist who is leading the initiative． Of course, to have an impact on the global carbon cycle, they will have to exist on an enormous scale． In the longer term, the group plans to partner with governments around the world to distribute seeds to farmers． "Five percent of the world's crop land is what we want to change over, " Chory said． It's an enormous goal, and one that even Chory admits sounds a bit crazy． But she also believes that the group's work is a step toward creating a more sustainable planet．（1）According to researchers in San Diego， how can suberin benefit human beings？________A.It can make up the skin of a potato．B.It can provide human beings with oxygen．C.It can take in and keep carbon dioxide in the ground．D.It can help human beings fight against droughts and floods．．（2）Which of the following does Joanne Chory probably agree with？________A.A variety of plants can produce more suberin than they used to．B.The bigger and deeper roots a plant has， the less suberin it has．C.Small amounts of suberin can influence the global carbon cycle．D.The goal to change crop land with suberin is hard but meaningful．．（3）Which of the following can be the best title of the passage？________A.Relying on plants to survive．B.Fighting climate change with super plants．C.Suberin ﹣﹣ a new magical substance．D.Plants ﹣﹣ more than food and medicine．．（4）What does the passage mainly intend to do？________A. To entertainB. To argueC. To informD. To instruct．第二节（共1小题；每小题10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．选项中有两项为多余选项．Earth's Growing PopulationHow fast has the world's population grown？ In 1800 about 860 million people lived in the world． During the next 100 years， the population doubled to nearly 1.7 billion． By 2012，the total passed 7 billion．（1）_______Causes of Population GrowthMany factors（因素） cause populations to increase．（2）_______Another major cause of population growth is the global birthrate． During the past 60 years， although the world's human birthrate has been decreasing slowly，the global birthrate is still higher than the global death rate． This means that at any given time， such as a day or a year， more births than deaths occur． This results in population growth．（3）_______When human populations grow， the places the people habitats can become crowded． In many parts of the world， cities， towns， and villages have grown and expanded beyond a comfortable capacity．（4）_______For example， diseases spread quickly in crowdedenvironments． Sometimes there is not enough work for everyone， and many households live in ongoing poverty． Where many people share tight living spaces， crime can be a serious problem and pollution can increase．Influence on the EnvironmentOn a global scale， rapid population growth can harm the environment．（5）_______ People need fuel for their cars and power for their homes． Miners drill and dig into the earth in search of more energy resources． Forests are cut down to make farms for growing crops to feed hungry populations． Factory workers build cars， computers， and electrical appliances to make people's life more convenient．For another， some factories dump chemicals into waterways and discharge poisonous smoke into the air． Over time， chemical wastes have polluted Earth's water andatmosphere， which seriously threatens the whole ecosystem．A． Serious problems can arise as a result of an ever﹣increasing population．B． So why has it grown so quickly and what effect has it on the world？C． For one thing， more people are sharing the same amount of space．D． Population ChallengesE． One is a falling death rate．F． Crowded habitatsG．So how many people will there be in 2050？第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．Vera Bryan, 12, gently touched her coach and said, "I want to have a try．" One of her teammates had not turned up on time, and Vera wanted to（1）_______． Her coach looked down at her． She had been practising dives（跳水）, but could she really stand up to the（2）_______ ?

给你发email说，现在新冠（Covid﹣19）疫情期间，英国政府提倡国民戴口罩，但英国人觉得只有生病的人才戴口罩，所以很多人不愿意戴，他很苦恼，来信向你倾诉．请你给他回信，内容包括：1．表达对他的关心和问候；2．建议他戴口罩；3．简述你的做法（戴口罩，勤洗手，保持距离）；4．邀请他疫情（epidemic）过后来中国．注意：1．词数80左右；2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯．Dear James，I'm more than glad to receive your email________Yours sincerelyLi Hua第二节概要写作（满分25分）阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要．Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in theright family， and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck． I'm not going to say luck， talent， and circumstances don't come into play because they do． Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence， and that's just the reality of how life is．However， to succeed in life， one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical． And， in addition to that， in order to get really good at something， one needs to spend at least 10，000 hours studying and practicing． To become great at certain things，it'll require even more time， time that most people won't put in． This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love． If you don't enjoy what you do， it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it．When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success， you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost． It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent， but thinking that way does you no good， and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway．Whatever you do， if you want to become great at it， you need to work day in and day out，almost to the point of addiction， and over a long period of time． If you're not willing toput in the time and work， don't expect to receive any rewards． Consistent， hard work won't guarantee you the level of success you may want， but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever you put all that work into．参考答案与试题解析2021学年湖北省高一（下）期中英语试卷（A卷）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分25.0分）第一节（共3小题；每小题2.5分，满分25.0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．1.【答案】CBA【考点】记叙文阅读故事类阅读【解析】本文主要讲述了意为名叫潘林的土兵在荒凉的海洋中凭借自己的才智和勇敢、坚韧的意志最终克服了艰苦的条件，存活了下来，并且他的求生方法被后人不断地借鉴．【解答】（1）C．词义猜测题．根据文章第二段"He

help．（3）than．考查连词．句意：在一年的时间里她每天为社区做得比我多．根据句中more，要用than构成比较状语从句．故填than．（4）gave．考查时态．句意：星期二和星期四，她在一个教堂里帮忙，这个教堂给无家可归的人提供帮助．根据主句判断本句是过去时，所以that从句后的动词也用过去时，故填gave．（5）children．考查名词．句意：他教那些在功课上需要额外帮助的当地孩子．根据with their schoolwork可知孩子们要用复数形式，child的复数形式children，所以填children．（6）hearing．考查动名词．句意：我不记得听到过一次她抱怨她的麻烦．remember doing sth．意为"记得做过某事"，remember to do sth．意为"记得要做某事"．此处应是前者．故填hearing．（7）when．考查定语从句．句意：她寻找每一个她可以向周围传播她的善良和幽默的场合．先行词是 occasion ，在定语从句中做状语，抽象意义上的时间，所以用when引导，故填when．（8）off．考查固定短语．句意：她请了一天假陪我，倾听我的烦恼．a day off是固定短语"一天的假"，所以填off．（9）impatient．考查形容词．句意：她从来没有对我的抱怨感到不耐烦．根据句意可知是不耐烦，impatient是形容词"不耐烦的"，所以填impatient．（10）what．考查主语从句．句意：我现在后悔的是从来没有真正为她做过什么，主语从句I regret now 缺少宾语，所以用what引导，故填what．第四部分写作（满分15分）第一节应用文写作（满分 15 分）【答案】Dear James，I am more than glad to receive your email． Knowing that you and your family are free from Covid﹣19 and stay in good health，I feel

If you land in India anytime in late February or March, it's wise to check the dates of the annual Holi festival and bring a spare set of clothes． That's because for a few days in spring, people crowd the streets and pelt（投掷）anyone walking by with brightly﹣colored powder to celebrate the arrival of spring and the end of evil． It's hard to avoid the fun and the paint, unless you stay inside or look angry enough to discourage the custom．"Watch out, madam!" said my taxi driver in Amritsar as we drove through a crowd of young people pelting each other with powder． "The colors never come out of your clothes, " he said． "And you might be having purple hair for many days．"I did a quick check． I was wearing black, a color rarely seen in India． It is usually connected with the lowest social classes, and can be viewed as unlucky． I was happy formy clothes to be painted in colors．"I have some powder I bought for my children． You can have some gladly, to join in our customs．" he encouraged． Holding what the driver handed me as my weapon of choice, I walked into the Holi smoke． At first people politely avoided foreigners． But then a girl in a sari（一种印度服饰）ran up smiling and put paint on my face． I returned the favor with a handful of pink．With its brilliant clothes, exotic flowers, trucks covered with lights and brightly painted pictures of gods, India is truly one of the most colorful places on the planet!（1）Which of the following sentences about the Holi festival is correct？________A. It falls on the same day each year and is celebrated for a few days．B. It is a playful cultural event to throw colored power at friends or strangers．C. It has many purposes， celebrating the end of spring in particular．D. It is fun for local people but a little unacceptable for foreigners．．（2）I was happy for my black clothes to be painted in colors because________．A. the festival influenced my taste in fashion．B. the taxi driver suggested wearing something colorful．C. black was the color not liked by people in India．D. a girl invited me to join in their customs．．（3）We can learn from the passage that________．A. the color black provides people with a sense of mystery and tradition．B. foreigners can't be too careful in the street in India during the Holi festival．C. a sari， worn especially by Indian women， is a must for the Holi celebration．D. anyone can be attacked during Holi festival．2. As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how．In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments． She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory． In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer． The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information． The second group understood that the computer would not save it． Later, the second group remembered the information better． People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it．In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet． The information was in a specific computer folder （文件夹）． Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location better than the facts． When people use the Internet, they do not remember theinformation． Rather, they remember how to find it． This is called "transactive memory （交互记忆）"According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet． Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date． This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing．（1）What can we learn about the first experiment？________A. Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer．B. The two groups remembered the information equally well．C. The first group did not try to remember the formation．D. The second group did not understand the information．．（2）In transactive memory， people________．A. keep the information in mindB. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a computerD. remember how to find the information．（3）What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research？________A. We are using memory differently．B. We are becoming more intelligent．C. We have poorer memories than before．D. We need a better way to access information．3. Traveling with kids is 90 percent reminding yourself to live in the moment and 10 percent making up your mind to never again leave your house．I have an ________ ability to forget this as soon as we return home from a trip and I've finished washing piles of dirty clothes in our luggage and cleaning all the messy caused by the kids． Extremely tired and annoyed, I would actually begin to miss the place we just left! Family travel is like childbirth, I suppose． Painful, loud, messy, sort ofawful, actually, but also wonderful． And you remember only the wonderful﹣until you're back on a plane and your kids are fighting over who gets the aisle seat． Then you remember the bad stuff．Last weekend, my kids and I flew to Texas for a trip we would have nothing to complain about﹣big hotel, wonderful view．And yet﹣we found things to complain about． The pool was bigger in that other hotel! Why do you get to shower first? They call this coffee? ! Luckily, I've learned to put my metaphorical coat of armor（盔甲） on as soon as we land somewhere, and it forces complaints to bounce （弹起） off me and land in a pile at my feet．For three days, genuine fun was had and annoying complaints were heard and ignored． Until it was time to catch a plane and fly home． Unfortunately, our flight was canceled． We spent hours finding a hotel room． We hit the hotel pool before bed and swam well into the night, my kids making up songs and laughing so hard at their silly lyrics and their crazy good luck to be swimming at 10: 30 on a school night．And that was when it hit me that family travel is all those things I said before but it's also a lot more． It's taking your kids to parts of the world that will open their eyes and finding that actually, yours need opening too． It's remembering that joy and memories are where you make them, not where you find them．（1）The underlined word "uncanny" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to________．A. unknown．B. uncertain．C. unexpected．D. unusual．．（2）According to the passage， family travel is like childbirth in that________．A. they both cause financial trouble and pain．B. they are both hard as well as rewarding．C. childhood memories come flooding back when they travel．D. both of them need many preparations．．（3）By saying "I've learned to put my metaphorical coat of armor on" in Paragraph 5， the author means that________．A. she tries to deal with the complaints more wisely and properly．B. she turns those annoying complaints into a means to educate kids．C. she has improved her language skills when handling the complaints．D. she has succeeded in escaping kids' fighting thanks to the armor．．（4）From the author's experience in the passage， we can NOT learn that________．A. family vacation benefits her kids as well as her．B. joy and memories should be created rather than discovered．C. the most unforgettable memory for her is about the complaints．D. she has to spend some time on housework after the family vacation．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，选项中有两项为多余选项．How to Discover Your TalentTalent tends to refer to that inborn skill that everyone seems to be

feel satisfied．（4）_______． Sometimes， when you're having difficulty seeing clearly， it's good to get an outside opinion． Your friends and family members know you well and they should be able to offer you some insights into the areas they think you're talented in．Try new things． Especially if you're not sure what your talents might be， you should get out and try new things． This way you're more

湖北省2021学年高一下学期期中联考英语试题(有答案)
湖北省2021学年高一下学期期中联考英语试题一、阅读选择1. A handwritten letter by a little boy asking Santa for a “very good dad” has captured hearts worldwide.The boy, known only as “Blake” in the letter, wrote, “Dear Santa, We had to leave our house. Dad was mad. We had to do all the chores. Dad got everything he wanted. Mom said it was time to leave and she would take us to a safer place where we don’t have to be scared.”“Blake is a 7-year-old boy in one of our shelters, and his mom found this letter in hisback pack...” Posted by SafeHaven of Tarrant County on Wednesday, December 18, 2019.“I’m still nervous. I don’t want to talk to the other kids,” he continued. “Are you going to come this Christmas? Can you bring a dictionary, and a compass and a watch?”The most heart-wrenching part of the letter was the last line that read, “I also want a very very very good dad. Can you do that too?”Officials with SafeHaven of Tarrant County, a group seeking to help end domestic (家庭的) violence, posted Blake’s letter to its Facebook page. Now, some of the child’s wishes have come true. All of the gifts he asked for have been donated by people in the community. Though SafeHaven received more than 10,000 gifts this year, they want to shine a light on the bigger issue of domestic violence.“To us, it was kind of a story that we’ve heard all the time,” Kathryn Jacob, the organization’s president and CEO, told Today. “Like tonight, we have 73 kids in the shelter. Blake is just one of many.”（1）The little boy asked Santa for a “very good dad” because ________.A.his dad was too strict with himB.he was forced to do all the choresC.he was ill-treated by his dadD.his dad didn’t buy him any gifts（2）What do we know about SafeHaven?A.It has received a lot of concern so far.B.It provides services for homeless children.C.It posted Blake’s letter without permission.D.Part of its goal is to earn money.（3）What is Kathryn Jacob’s purpose by saying the words in the last paragraph?A.To advertise their shelter.B.To introduce their shelter.C.To tell more information about Blake.D.To draw attention to domestic violence.2. Since September about 11m hectares of Australia have been in flames. This year’s fires are the worst on record, with at least 26 people dead, about half-billion animals burned alive, and over 2300 homes destroyed. Australians of all species are suffering the most. But the fires have serious consequences for the rest of the world, too.New Zealand, one of Australia’s closest neighbors, is fee ling the effects of the bushfires. The most important effect of the fires might be on the country’s glaciers, about which Helen Clark, New Zealand’s former prime minister, tweeted: “Australian bushfires have created haze in New Zealand with particular impact on the South Island yesterday and now spreading more widely. Impact of ash on glaciers is likely to speed melting.” Melting glaciers could open up a future none of us wants to suffer.There’s no such thing as weather that happens in isolation. As a recent Forbes article reports, fires have the potential to not only block visibility for airplanes, grounding them, but to create pockets of hotter or colder air, or create situations where the weather is increasingly less stable — although no one is yet certain how far from the Australian continent those effects might wander, or how harmful they may prove to be.In addition to coal, Australia also exports all kinds of agricultural products — like beef and wool—particularly to Asian countries including China and Japan. But what happens when the land it uses to grow all that food and fiber is destroyed by fire? Obviously, no more goods to export, which creates a huge problem in the international supply chain. Thanks to globalization, pretty much no country eats only the food it grows. What happens to the global food supply as agricultural land in Australia and other export nation’s burns to a crisp?（1）What can we learn about the Australian bushfires?A.They’ve left most of Australian land in flames.B.T hey’ve speeded the melting of glaciers.C.They will certainly create hotter air.D.No one is certain how harmful their effects will be on climate.（2）What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of the global food supply?A.Doubtful.B.Objective.C.Concerned.D.Indifferent.（3）What is the best title for the text?A.The Effects of the Australian Bushfires on Climate ChangeB.Australian Bushfires: a Big Disaster to the CountryC.What the Australian Bushfires Mean for the Rest of the World?D.Why the Australian Bushfires Affect the Rest of the World?3. For two centuries, the famous University of Cambridge debating society has hosted many prominent figures, from world leaders to scientists to comedians.On Nov 21, the Cambridge Union hosted another extraordinary guest—a non-human debater called Project Debater. Designed by IBM, Project Debater is a machine that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to form a spoken argument. It can even listen and answer toopposite statements, much like a real person.In the Cambridge test debate, it argued the topic: Al will ultimately (最终) do more harm than good. Before the debate, more than 1,100 arguments for the positives and negatives of AI were submitted (递交) to the IBM website. The machine then analyzed these sources and formed the basis of its arguments in minutes. Project Debater then showed off its AI by arguing for both sides of the debate.Over a four-minute speech, it argued first that, “AI can only make decisions that it has been programmed to solve, while humans can be programmed for all situations.”In support of AI, it then argued that AI would create new jobs and “bring a lot more efficiency” to the workplace.This isn’t the first test for Project Debater. In June 2018, the machi ne went back-and-forth for 20 minutes against champion debater Harish Natarajan.According to New Scientist, on both occasions, Project Debater repeated points and didn’t always sufficiently (充分地) support them.Speaking to Cambridge Independent, No am Slonim, the project’s lead engineer, said, “The AI is not perfect, but it’s going in the right direction.” The team hopes to improve the AI by researching why humans find certain arguments more persuasive than others. They also hope the test might provide well-informed viewpoints for society, governments and private companies.（1）What does the underlined word “prominent” mean in paragraph one?A.Intelligent.B.Outstanding.C.Well-educated.D.Creative.（2）According to the passage, Project Debater ________.A.can make decisions for all situationsB.argued with itself in the Cambridge test debateC.can always find enough evidence to support its ideaD.defeated champion debater Harish Natarajan in June 2018（3）What does Noam Slonim think of the AI?A.It’s not so beneficial to humans.B.It will defeat humans in time.C.It remains to be improved.D.It will ultimately do more harm than good.（4）This passage above can be most probably read in ________.A.a newspaperB.a guidebookC.a textbookD.a research paper二、七选五Many people connect gratitude（感谢）with saying "thank you" to someone who helped us, making it a short act of appreciation. According to Robert Emmons, a leading researcher, gratitude is an emotion that can result in long-lasting positivity（积极性）.（1）Gratitude is good for your health.Through his research, Emmons found that grateful people reported feeling healthier and happier, both mentally and physically.（2） In the workplace, employees who are shown that they are appreciated are healthier and more productive by 50 percent.（3）Gratitude is a selfless act. We often take for granted the simple things in life. Those who recognize the goodness in life, no matter how simple, are more likely to be sensitive to the needs of others and to help whenever they can. Being considerate to others' opinions, experiences and backgrounds will make you a better person.Gratitude makes us more self-aware.Working in an ever-developing, fast-paced society, we are surrounded by ambitious people who are always struggling for more and better.（4） It starts by paying attention to what's now going on in your life, and that's true self-awareness is the key to being successful.Gratitude helps us build strong relationship.Gratitude is a powerful tool for strengthening relationship, both at work and in your personal life. People who express their gratitude tend to be more willing to forgive others and therefore able to create long-lasting connections.（5） Taking the time to thank people for their work and kindness—whether it was today, last month or many years ago-makes you happier and more self-aware.A. Specially, those who were grateful were 25 percent happier than those who weren't.B. Gratitude builds understanding.C. The old saying goes "It's never too late to say you're sorry", but the same is true of gratitude.D. All in all, we feel and express our gratitude in different ways.E. Gratitude makes you reflect（反思）in the moment instead of always thinking about the future.F. Gratitude helps us build up self-confidence.G. Here are a few benefits of being grateful.三、完形填空Alexandra Adams, 25, is a four-year medical student who was born both deaf and blind. However, she has _________ to let her condition prevent her from becoming a doctor.Being completely deaf in both ears without hearing aids, and with 5 percent sight in only one eye, she relies on her other _________ such as touch to feel for veins (血管). “You can_________ a lot about patients just by listeni ng to them.” she told The Daily Mail.Miss Adams was _________ to take part in the 2012 Paralympics as a swimmer aged 16, but her previous serious stomach problems went very wrong, _________ her to be hospitalized for 18 months.The experience _________ her switch her attention from swimming to medicine --- and she was finally _________ to Cardiff University.Recalling her first placement (实习), she said: “When I arrived, a doctor asked why I was walking with the patient’s stick.

ABURNING MAN (BLACK ROCK DESERT, NEVADA)Burning Man started in 1986, when Larry Harvey and Jerry James assembled(组装) a 8-foot tall wooden figure and pulled it to San Francisco’s Baker Beach. They lit it on fire, a curious crowd of around 20 people watched it burn, and thus one of the world’s wildest part ies was born.It takes place from the last Sunday in August to Labor Day(the first Monday of September). Once a gathering of friends and family, the festival is now a feast to the wonder of self-expression, attracting tourists from all around the world. CARNIVAL (RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL)Arguably the biggest festival in the world, Brazil’s Carnival attracts nearly 5 million people each year, with a half-million or so being visitors.Historically, Carnival is a religious celebration. The Brazil festival takesplace in February or March. So picture 5 million people who’ve been baking in the heat for months, preparing to give up the things they love for 40 days, set loose in a city filled with lively music and various dancers.LA TOMATINA (VALENCIA, SPAIN)Launched way back in 1945, La Tomatina is one of the oldest festivals on our list. It’s also easily the messiest, coming off like the world’s biggest food fight. If you go, please follow some simple rules: Don’t throw hard objects, squash(挤压) the tomato before throwing it, stay a safe distance away from tomato trucks, and stop when the fight has ended. In other words, have fun, but don’t hurt anybody.21. When does Burning Man celebration usually start?A. In 1986.B. In 1945.C. In August.D. In September.22. How many local people attend Carnival every year?A. Nearly 0.5 million.B. Nearly 2 million.C. Nearly 4.5 million.D. Nearly 5 million.23. What can we infer about the food fight?A. It’s held just for fun.B. It’s held to honor a famous person.C. It’s allowed to throw anything during the fight.D. It’s allowed to throw the tomato directly whenever you like.BMum was up packing all her clothes and other essentials(必需品) she needed while I was still trying to get up. All my friends had said goodbye the day before so now I would never see them again. Well at least not in person for a while. I was especially heartbroken that I would never see my best friend Beth in person for who knows how long.Boarding the plane was a nightmare because there were people everywhere. I almost lost my mother but thankfully I have a loud voice. Finally we were on the plane and I waved goodbye to America. I was so sad about leaving my country and was certainly not exited to be going to Australia. I nodded off halfway through the flight and wasawoken by my mother.As we got off the plane only half awake we got to the pick up our luggage. After waiting for over an hour, we walked to the main reception there and told them about our bags. They told us to go to our hotel room and they would try to find the bags.Walking into the hotel room was alleviation. A big day had gone past and we only had time to unpack our backpacks because our suitcases had still not been delivered.I set up my room with the things that I had packed in my backpack like I had done in America. As I lay down on the bed I held the toy my parents had given me the day I was born. I got enough sleep to get me through the next day. But it was only the bare minimum compared to what I was used to.24. Why was the author so sad that morning?A. Because she was half awake.B. Because she lost her luggage.C. Because she had a nightmare the day before.D. Because she had to leave her friends for a long time.25. How did the author probably find her mother when the plane was boarding?A. Shouting aloud.B. Looking around.C. Calling the reception.D. Asking the stewardess.26. What does the underlined word “alleviation” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Sadness.B. Relief.C. Suffering.D. Wandering.CIt took Sheperd Doeleman nearly a decade to pull off the impossible. As the director of the Event Horizon Telescope(EHT), a project involving hundreds of international researchers, he spent years flying suitcases full of hard drives around the globe to coordinate(协调) observations between radio telescopes on four continents(大洲). On April 9, 2021, the coordination at last released the fruits of their labors and the world got the first image of a black hole.The feat—which pioneering black hole theorist James Bardeen called hopeless in 1973—represented a towering achievement of astronomical technology. “It took everyone a little by surprise that they got such a good image so fast,” says Andrew Strominger, a theoretical physicist at Harvard University.Now Strominger and other researchers are back with a wild answer, which appeared last week in Science Advances. With a distance enough telescope, the EHT coordination could see multiple reflections(反射) of light streaming from around the black hole. By sorting through the precise pattern in these rays, astronomers could study black holes and test Einstein’s theory of gravity like never before. Basically, they hope black holes will become more like stars and planets: not just objects to think about, but to directly observe.The team did pencil-and-paper calculations using Einstein’s theory of General Relativity and some simulations(模拟) to analyze what black holes do to light. “Black holes, they're just kind of the best at everyt hing they do,” Lupsasca says. “And that includes bending light rays into loops(圈、环).”27. What did Sheperd Doeleman achieve according to paragraph 1?A. An international project.B. An image of a black hole.C. Suitcases full of hard drives.D. Radio telescopes on four continents.28. Who believed it was impossible to get any image of black holes?A. James Bardeen.B. Albert Einstein.C. Sheperd Doeleman.D. Andrew Strominger.29. Why did Strominger and his team do so many calculations?A. To bend light rays into loops.B. To observe black holes directly.C. To design a distance enough telescope.D. To analyze black holes’ impact on light.30. Where is this text most likely from?A. A diary.B. A novel.C. A guidebook.D. A magazine.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。
