City farms are an experiment.D. City farms save a lot of energy.CIn the long history of pipe-assisted drinking—beginning with the gold beer-sipping tubes of the Sumerians —Starbucks's plastic straws（吸管）knew they had some advantages over the rest.Their tight white wrapping carried not only English words but a French style.They stood straight and tall as a stalk （秆）of wheat，with no ugly appearance.And their colour was beautiful.It was darker than the leaves of spring，and lighter than the Washington forests and the logo of the company.But despite all that，they were to disappear by 2020，for not being green enough.Of course，the straws played an important part in daily life.You could build a cottage with them，or make a hat.At best，they might compose a mat.Their nearest relatives were not delicate grasses，but single-useplastic tubes.Yet this did not concern them，because they had a higher calling：to refresh human beings.Rather than pumping up the customer with hot highly-effective Americanos，they cooled him with less caffeine and more play.People，especially teenagers and children，needed them to socialize，and amuse themselves.All these folk could have drunk their Frappuccino or their iced teas directly from the plastic cup，of course. Some did，ignoring the eager straws standing ready.Fun was why green straws had been put into use at all.They began their service not when Starbucks was founded，in 1971，but when it introduced the Frappuccino almost three decades later.Green straws marched in，along with whipped cream.They meant happiness.Yet for each of those straws，the Frappuccino and its followers faced a serious challenging.Through the flat plastic lids of iced coffees，now sharply scored with a cross，they were expected to do the same.However，the straws were thrown to the bin，either in-store or in the street after being used.They lay where they were thrown in woods，or fields，or among the hills.They would never be dust.They had eternal（永久的）life.That's the reason why they would disappear.8. Why would Starbucks's plastic straws disappear？______A. They were not environmentally friendly.B. They were not widely used in everyday life.C. They took on an ugly look in appearance.D. They were uncomfortable for followers to use.9. What effect did straws have on people？______A. Calming.B. Uplifting.C. Disturbing.D. Depressing.10. What does the underlined word "Some" refer to in paragraph 3？______A. Humans.B. Straws.C. Iced teas.D. Plastic tubes.11. What is the best title for the passage？______A. Why Are the Green Straws So Popular？B. Protecting the Environment s Our DutyC. Don't Drink Iced Frappuccino Any MoreD. Say Goodbye to Starbucks's Green StrawsDHave you ever imagined what technology might look like in the future？Everything becomes easier，which is one tap.Over the course of human history，technology gradually can become so convenient and more than.And because of that，technology has been a large part of human life in the past 20 cators also use technology to teach children about the use of technology in the current time.Is that everything technology can do with education today？If you ask me，I would say parents who should be closest to their children should also use these wonderful tools in families' education too.So why do Imention family's education here and what does technology do with it？Many people，especially parents，think they shouldn't let their children interact with social network at this age.Don't you think they are too young for it ？They may fall，they may become addicted to it，and not care about their parents anymore.And that's why technology becomes used widely in many places，like schools and companies，but not in families.However，technology does carry many risks，and if you don't know how to use and understand this probably it can easily lead to many disadvantages，especially for children，because they may not be aware enough of these dangers.But fortunately，the disadvantages are avoidable.Families could set logical time to limit the children to use their electronic devices.Parents can also apply technology to teaching their children，so that games and videos are suitable for children with a certain amount of time.Through technology，children can have more opportunities and more time to explore and develop themselves，and understand what they really like and find the true path in the future.These are things that often in school，children don't get much access to because they have to spend more time on other subjects，like social science and maths.That's why this is a good choice for parents to use technology to help children discover themselves at home.12. What can we infer about technology from Paragraph 1？______A. It can provide more changes in history.B. It becomes inconvenient and more than.C. It can be difficult for people to acquire.D. It plays an important role in daily life.13. Why isn't technology used widely in families？______A. It is not easy to connect the Internet in families.B. It is difficult to get access to technology in families.C. Parents worry that it has a bad effect on children.D. Children can't get much amusement from technology.14. How are the disadvantages avoidable？______A. Make the Internet offline.B. Interact with social network.C. Limit the time online.D. Improve computer system.15. What is the author's attitude to the use of technology at home？______A. Doubtful.B. Negative.C. Indifferent.D. Favorable.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）Learning English doesn't always mean sitting in the classroom and studying boring grammar.In fact，there are a number of ways to improve your understanding of the language.（1）______ So if you' re keen to improve your English then consider some of these handy tips to get you on your way.Watch television and films in English.There are good TV shows and filmsin English，and you can learn English while watching them.（2）______ Read English books or newspapers.Reading is a great way of practising your English in your spare time.If you're a beginner，pick up a children's book whose language can be easier than an adult book.（3）______ Not only can you improve your English，but you'll learn about local and national goings-on.And it can be handy when you communicate with native speakers.（4）______ If you just spend your time outside of the classroom with people from your own country，you'll miss a big chance to practise English.If you try to make friends with other English speakers，you'll be forced into speaking the English language.If you have difficulty finding English speakers，at least try and spend time with people from other countries.In this way，you will still have to speak English.Make notes of new vocabulary.（5）______ Whenever you have free time，you can practise what you've learned.You can even do this on your phone so that you needn't take a notebook with you.A.Learn to speak English actively.B.Many of them can actually be fun.C.Newspapers are also worth reading.D.Surround you with English speakers.E.As you travel home or fall asleep，you can listen to it.F.Whenever you learn a new word，make sure you make a note of it.G.You can also listen to English radio stations and find plenty of listening materials on the Internet.16.

Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each question.Have you experienced the moments when your little baby cried at the top of his or her voice and it seemed that he or she wanted something or something was wrong with him or her, but youweren’t able to understand what the baby needed in fact? Don’t worry. In fact, baby sign language can help you communicate with your little baby.Baby sign language can be considered as a kind of language, through which parents and caregivers can talk to baby. It is a way of expressing ideas and feelings using movements or sound.It’s better to begin with some simple si gns to teach a baby. Show the sign in front of your baby as you say the word. Look into your baby’s eyeswhile showing the sign. Point at the objectyou’re talking about when teaching your baby. Besides, teach your baby the sign, as much as possible in everyday life after teaching your baby the signs. Only when you use them often will yourbaby master baby language quickly.Research has found that babies who were taught sign language when they were very little develop language skills fa ster t han those who grew up without being taught. That is because when yourteach your baby to use sign language, you also have to speak the particular word. When you do this regularly, the child is likely to pick up those words quickly, thus leading to overall apeechdevelopment. A baby who learns baby language is able to communicate with his or her parents or caregivers and when its need is met, he or she’ll feel happy and pleased. Babies who know signlanguage may have higher IQ than children who learn language in the natural way. And it can help improve the memory of the baby.Title：71.Function Helpful to 72. the baby73. on teaching babies to use it ●Beginning with some 74.●Showing the baby the sign as you say the word●Looking into75. while showing the sign●Pointing at the object that is being 76.●Teaching the baby to form the sign with his or her hands●Using the signs often 77.Advantages of it to the baby’s future ●Making the baby’s languageskills 78.●Giving the baby happiness and pleasure●Developing 79.●Improving the baby’s 80.Section B10marksDirections: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage. Write your answers on your answer sheet.The computer makes doing schoolwork easier for me than it was for my mom and dad. For example, when writing book reports and stories, I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. Thatway, after my teacher checks my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing. And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time.For English class, we are reading The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton. As pre-reading homework, my teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Internet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoofirst, and finally found an article on Time. com .For geography homework on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different, whatstates it runs through, and what kinds of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its economy. For example, the river’s trade paths, the numberof fish caught in it and the tourists it attracts directly affect Southerners’ jobs and incomes.I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my parents work, getting to the library isn’t always easy. For a big task or researchproject, I used to stay at the library to read, or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Now being able to find the information in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler.Online dictionaries and encyclopedias 百科全书 also save time.Sometimes, I think the computer spoils my generation because it is so easy --- at least physically. But computers are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have touse your mind. I prefer using a computer, easy, fun, and fast.81. What does the writer use when he writes book reports and stories? no more than 3 words82. Why doesn’t the writer go to the library to do research? no more than 6 words83. How does the writer complete a big assignment or research project at present? no more than 10 words84. Why does the author prefer using a computer? no more than 11 wordsSection C 15 marksDirections: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.高一的学习生活还不算太紧张，有些同学可能会因此而松懈下来。

It’s a question that oftendoesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes tohear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. Thereason is that “How are you?” isn’t really aquestion and “Fine.”isn’t really an answer. They are simply other way of saying “Hello!”or “Hi!”.Sometimes, people also don’t say exactlywhat they me an. For example, when someone asks, “Do you agree?”, theother person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong…”But it isn’t very polite to disagree strongly, so the other person might say “I’mnot sure…”. It’s a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone.People also don’t say exactly what they arethinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talksover the phone finish when one person says “I’ve to go now.” Often,the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse,” Someone is at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or itmight not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talkany more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and itdoesn’t hurt the other person.When they are greeting each other, talkingabout an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what theyare thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other,and it’s also a part of the game of language.（1）When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say “___________”.A . You’re wrong. I disagree.B . I’m not sure.C . I’m sure I disagree.D . No, I disagree.（2）When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone is at the door.”, heor she may be .A . giving an excuseB . hurting someone’s feelingC . talking to a person at the doorD . going to another place（3）One of the rules of the game of language is probably “____________”.A . Always say what you mean.B . Don’t disagree with people.C . Say exactly what you’re thinking.D . Being polite is the best policy.3. 阅读理解My boss’s daughter was studying in the Philippines. He asked me if my husband and I could take care of her. He thought his daughter would be able to improve her English communication skills in this way.After days of thinking, we agreed. He then brought her here and left after 3 days. I thought that my boss’s daughter was well-mannered, but that was wrong.After a month of staying in the Philippines, she started to show her true colors. When my husband asked her what she wanted for breakfast, she answered him in a rude way.From then on, we experienced fights at home. There was a time when we didn’t talk to her for a week as a punishment of not being good to us. What I hated most was that she didn’t care about other people’s feelings. She ate ahead of us when we were still working and didn’t leave anything for us. So we had to separate her food from ours to avoid such a problem.The worst thing about her was that she shouted at us. I was wondering if she did this to her parents. We told this to her parents, but unfortunately Ididn’t think that solved the problem. This situation lasted for almost 8 months. Our patience was tested during that time.We tried to teach her everything we could to make her a better person, but I guess 8 months may not be enough. We even tried to understand her and adjust for her, but it didn’t work. I just hope that she learned something from us and from other Filipinos.（1）Why did the boss want his daughter to stay with the writer?A . Because he was too busy to take care of his daughter.B . Because he wanted his daughter to take a holiday there.C . Because he wanted the writer to teach his daughter good manners.D . Because he wanted his daughter to improve her English in this way.（2）What do the examples in Paragraph 3 tell us?A . The daughter wasn’t t behaving well.B . The writer and her husband were careless.C . The writer and her husband hated children.D . The daughter tried her best to make others happy.（3）What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A . Being patient with her.B . Her parents punishing her.C . Telling her parents about her behavior.D . Asking her parents about her.（4）What is this passage mainly about?A . The writer’s experience of dealing with a teenage girl staying in her house.B . The writer’s experience of teaching a girl’s English.C . The writer’s experience of improving a girl’s communication skills.D . The writer’s experience of trying to please her boss.4. 阅读理解When to go:The Magic Kingdom, which was opened in 1971, was the first theme park at WaltDisney World. All Disney World theme parks are opened 365 days a year, althoughopening and closing time for each park changes from day to day. If you plan tomake a trip to the Magic Kingdom without kids, try to visit on a school day toavoid the largest crowds. If you need to visit during a school vacation, try atleast to avoid the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day and the fourth ofJuly.If you arenot staying at a Disney World hotel, avoid visiting the Magic Kingdom on itsExtra Magic Hours days, as Disney’s hotel guests get into the park early onthose days, and visitors who arrive at the Magic Kingdom’s normal opening timehave to wait for a long time.Before yougo：Buy your WaltDisney World tickets online at Disney World’s website.

A．missing Ed's funeralB．moving away from his neighborhoodC．forgetting to send Ed Christmas cardsD．not being able to keep in touch with Ed18．From Paragraph4,we can learn that the author of the passage________.A．often failed to write to his friendsB．had no intention to write to his friendsC．had many great moments with his friendsD．was good at expressing feelings to his friends19．What message does the passage probably try to convey?A．Comfort your friends when they are feeling down.B．Life is unpredictable,so live each day as if it were your last.C．Remember to always mail your letters after expressing your words.D．Always make time to value and experience your lasting friendships.【答案】16．A17．D18．A19．DLiving and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days,but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.If I have learned anything in my16years,it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along.With any relationship,you need to let other person know how you are feeling.If you are not able to communicate,you drift apart.When you are mad at your parents,or anyone else,not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.Communication begins with the concerns of another.It means that you can’t just come home from school,go up to your room and ignore everyone.Even if you just say“Hi”and see how their day was for five minutes,it is better than nothing.If you looked up the word“communication”in a dictionary.It would say“the exchange of ideas,the conveyance(表达)of information,means of communication such as a letter or a message”.To keep a good relationship,you must keep communication strong.Let people know how you feel,even if it's Just by writing a note.When dealing with parents,you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent.If you are trying to make them see something as you see it,tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say,but ask them politely to listen to you.Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.This is an example:one night,Sophie went to a street party with her friends.She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks,but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home.That would be rude.After all,they had been nice enough to take her along with them.Needless to say,she was late getting home.Her parents were mad at first,but when Sophie explained why she was late,they weren’t as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor here.If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.Communication isn’t a one-way deal:it goes both ways.Just remember:if you get into a situation like Sophie’s,tell the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to communication.20．In the writers view,dealing with parents is__________than with children.A．more difficult B．easierC．more uninteresting D．more interesting21．The main idea of the second paragraph is____________.A．the importance of friendshipB．to make your feeling known to othersC．the importance of communicationD．the disagreement between generations22．The example in this passage proves that____________.A．Sophie is very polite to her parentsB．Sophie's parents are willing to listen to herC．explanation is the best way to solve a problemD．communication is the solution(解决办法)to misunderstanding23．All the following statements are correct except____________.A．If you don’t agree with others,you'd better let them knowB．It is better to say“Hi”to others than say nothingC．If you are not able to communicate,walk awayD．Communication is a two-way deal【答案】20．A21．C22．D23．CGreen is an important color in nature.It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants.Sometimes,the word“green”means young,fresh and growing.For example,a greenhorn is someone who has no experience.In the15th century,a greenhorn was a young cow or an ox whose horns(角)had not yet developed.A century later,a greenhorn was a soldier who had no experience in war.By the18th century,a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new in a job.Someone who is good at growing plants is said to have a green thumb(大拇指).The expression comes from the early20th century.A person with a green thumb can make plants grow quickly and well.Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling,jealousy(嫉妒).The green-eyed monster(怪物)is not a dangerous animal from outer space.It is an expression used about400years ago by the British writer William Shakespeare in his play“Othello”.It describes the unpleasant feeling when someone has something he wants.For example,a young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if you get a pay rise and he does not.In most places in the world,a green light means to move ahead.In everyday speech,a green light means agree to continue with a project.24．A greenhorn now refers to________.A．a person who is new in a jobB．a new soldierC．a young horseD．a cow without horns25．A person with a green thumb is a person________.A．who is good at growing plantsB．whose thumbs are of green colorC．whose garden is greener than others’D．who is younger than his neighbors26．A man may meet the green-eyed monster if________.A．he sees a dangerous animalB．he reads a sad playC．his friend gets a prize that he wantsD．he can’t get something27．The main idea of the passage is________.A．a greenhornB．a green thumbC．the Green RevolutionD．the word“green”and its story【答案】24．A25．A26．C27．DWolves are important animals in the traditions and stories of most Native American tribes.To Native Americans,wolves often represent bravery.The animals also are signs of strength,loyalty,and success at hunting.Other cultures--such as the ancient Celtic and Nordic peoples-also placed high value on wolves.However,from the wolves in horror films to the wolves in children’s stories,wolves get a bum rap(不公正的惩罚)in both literature and English expressions.To begin with,there is the term lone wolf.The lone wolf isn’t a bad person.But they like to do things on their own.However,the term can mean something less than desirable.Lonewolf makes you think the person doesn’t want to be around people because he or she dislikes them.Now,let’s move on to the home.Parents might criticize their children for wolfing down their food.In other words,the child eats very quickly and without care.And if someone says a child was raised by wolves, that child has bad manners and is behaving like a wild animal.A wolf at the door means someone to whom you owe money is waiting just outside your door.By the way,there are two popular wolf-related expressions that come from Aesop,the ancient Greek storyteller.The first is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.A wolf in sheep’s clothing describes someone who acts and looks nice on the outside but is bad on the inside.Aesop’s other wolf fable also involves a shepherd,but not a hardworking one.He is known as the boy who cried wolf.People who cry wolf are not trusted.People are so familiar with this story,you simply have to say cry wolf for them to know what you mean. 28．According to the passage,which group of people may think wolves are bad animals? A．The ancient Nordic people B．The ancient Celtic peopleC．Native Americans D．The English people29．Which of the following can describe a person who often acts alone?A．A wild wolf B．A lone wolfC．A wolf at the door D．A wolf in sheep’s clothing30．What may you probably mean by saying someone cries wolf?A．The person is selfish B．The person is a liarC．The person is stubborn D．The person is a troublemaker31．What is the passage mainly about?A．Stories about wolvesB．The research on wolvesC．Expressions about wolvesD．The cultural differences about wolves【答案】28．D29．B30．B31．CJohn H．Johnson was born in a black family in Arkansas city in1918．His father died in an accident when John was six．He was reaching the high school age，but his hometown offered no high school for blacks．Fortunately he had a strong﹣willed caring mother．John remembered that his mother told him many times，"Son，you can be anything you want really to be if you just believe．"She told him not to depend on others，including his mother．"You have to earn success，"she said．"All the people who work hard don't succeed，but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard．"These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education．She also knew that believing hard work don't mean everything．So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son，who was then15，to Chicago．Chicago in1933was not the promised land that black southerners were looking for．John's mother and stepfather could not find work．But here John could go to school，and here he learned the power of words﹣as an editor of the newspaper and yearbook at Du Sable High School his wish was to publish a magazine for blacks．While others discouraged him，John's mother offered him more words to live by．"Nothing beats a failure but a try．"She also let him pawn（典当）her furniture to get the ﹩500he needed to start the Negro magazine．It is natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful．He always keeps his mother's words in mind．"Son，failure is not in your vocabulary!"Now John H．Johnson is one of the400richest people in America﹣worth﹩150million．32．Why did John's mother decide to move to Chicago?A．his father died when John was very youngB．life was too hard for them to stay on in their hometownC．John needed more education badlyD．there were no schools for Negroes in their hometown33．John's mother．A．didn't believe in or depend on othersB．thought one could be whatever one wanted to beC．believed one would succeed without working hardD．thought no one could succeed without working hard34．What does the underlined sentence"Nothing beats a failure but a try．"mean?A．if you try，you would succeedB．a failure is difficult to beat，even if you tryC．a try is always followed by a failureD．no failure can be beaten unless you try．【答案】32．C33．D34．DIf you’d like to go sightseeing,the following World Heritage Sites may be your best choices. Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest AreaThe Jiuzhaigou Valley,which lies in the northern part of Sichuan Province,reaches a height of more than4,800meters,with a series of different forest ecosystems(生态系统).There you can enjoy watching excellent waterfalls.Some140kinds of birds also live in the valley,as well as a number of endangered plants and animals,the giant panda included.For more information,please visit http://whc,unesco,org//en/list/637.Khaml Ruins National MonumentThe city of Khami,which developed after the capital of Great Zimbabwe had been given up in the mid-16th century,is of great archaeological(考古的)interest.The discovery of objects from Europe and China shows that Khami was a major centre for trade over a long period of time.For more information,please visit http://whc,unesco,org/en/list/365.Henderson IslandHenderson Island,which lies in the eastern South Pacific,is one of the few atolls(环礁)in the world whose ecology has not been touched by human beings.It is especially famous for the ten plants and four land birds that can only be seen on the island.For more information,please visit /en/list/487.The Old City of JerusalemAs a holy city for three different religions in the Middle East,Jerusalem has always been of great religious(宗教的)importance.It was given a World Heritage Status in1981and placedon the“List of World Heritage in Danger”the following year.For more information,please visit /en/list/148.35．What can we know about the Jiuzhaigou Valley?A．It has different forest ecosystems.B．It sits at the foot of a4,800-meter high mountain.C．In all about140kinds of birds and animals live there.D．Most of China’s endangered plants can be found there.36．The discovery of some of the objects in Khami shows that the city_____.A．had a very short historyB．was ruined in the mid-16th centuryC．was once Great Zimbabwe’s largest cityD．once played a great role as a trade center37．What can be learned about Henderson Island from the passage?A．It hasn’t been greatly influenced by human activities.B．It isn’t suitable for humans to live on.C．It has been open to visitors for years.D．It is made up of a few large atolls.38．If you are interested in religion,you should visit______.A．/en/list/365B．/en/list/148C．/en/list/487D．/en/list/637【答案】35．A36．D37．A38．BIt seems that people are gradually losing their smartness as smartphones become increasingly important assistants in their lives.As we rely too much on technology instead of our brains, many people have lost three basic abilities.The first skill many people have lost is remembering phone numbers.Because phonenumbers are stored in smartphone contacts,there’s now no need to dial a number or look at it again.______________________________________________.And some people may also have lost their sense of direction because some apps can guide people anywhere they want.People get so dependent on them that when they can’t use their smartphones,they get lost and anxious.But the worst lost skills may be social ones,meaning that some people are becoming socially inept(无能的).People often bury themselves in their smartphones.As we’re tooabsent-minded by what’s happening in the virtual(虚拟的)some of us have lost conversational skills and sometimes can’t even tell whether a person is happy or not.Last August,researchers at the University of California,Los Angeles,studied51students aged11and12who had over five hours’screen time every day.Their task was to tell the emotions of48pictures of faces that were happy,sad,angry or scared.The children made an average of14.02mistakes at the beginning.But after a five-day camp without electronic(电子的)products,they made only9.41mistakes on average. Luckily,people still have a chance to get these abilities back.You should try to keep your parents’numbers in mind for emergencies.You should also pay more attention to street signs and stores,which will help you to draw a mind map and stop you from getting lost.And the easiest solution to social skill loss is to take a break from electronic products.39．The underlined sentence in the second paragraph implies that______.A．you are able to turn to others for helpB．others are able to call you anytime and anywhereC．others are unable to get in touch with you by smartphoneD．you are unable to contact others without your smartphone40．The experiment shows that without electronic products,one could______. A．recognize more facial expressions correctlyB．lose the sense of direction frequentlyC．tell different emotions immediatelyD．tell more pictures of faces easily41．Overusing smartphones,people will probably______A．have no sense of numbersB．fail to find their destinationC．lose face-to-face communication skillsD．weaken their senses of hearing and sight42．What’s the writer’s attitude towards electronic products?A．Objective.B．Critical.C．Supportive.D．Optimistic.【答案】39．D40．A41．C42．BA good relationship between students and teachers makes the classroom a very inviting place.When you like your teachers,it’s easier to pay attention to their explanations and improve your marks.When you consider your teachers as friends,you’ll certainly have more respect for them.When your teachers consider you to be a friend,they’ll feel more open in class and that will probably influence the classroom in a positive way.Now here are some tips to develop a friendly relationship with your teachers:Ask questions.If you have any questions about that subject,ask them.Show them that you’re interested in their subjects.That will make them notice you.But never ask questions that you already know the answers to.If your teachers realize that you are not asking real questions,they might think that you’re not actually trying to learn,but only trying to make an impression.Talk about non-school subjects.When you see one of your teachers in the hall,greet him/her and ask if he/she is going to that concert or if he/she has seen that movie.That way you’ll show that you consider him/her as a reined.Some teachers don’t like to have friendly relationships with students,but most of them are happy to chat with their students.After a while,they may start to talk with you about non-school subjects in the classroom.The rest is totally up to you;it is very easy to develop a friendly relationship with any of your teachers.If you want to be friends with your teachers,just treat them as friends,but don’t forget that no matter how good friends you are,they will still be your teachers and deserve your respect.43．What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?A．How to make friends with your teachers in or out of class.B．How important a good teacher-student relationship is.C．How to make yourself pay attention to your teachers in class.D．Some tips for developing a friendly relationship with your teachers.44．When you ask a teacher questions you already know the answers to,__________. A．you may make a fool of yourself trying to be smartB．it means that you should not be above asking questionsC．you are actually trying to make fun of your teachersD．it shows that you’re trying to pretend to know everything45．What’s the main idea of this passage?A．What a good teacher-student relationship is.B．How to make friends with your classmates at school.C．How to make the classroom a very inviting place.D．How to develop a good relationship with your teachers.【答案】43．B44．A45．DElephants are able to know the difference between a man and a woman,and can tell an adult(成年人)from a child—all from the sound of a human voice.This is according to a study in which researchers played voice recordings to wild African elephants.The animals showed more fear when they heard the voices of adult Masai ually Masai people hunt elephants,and this suggests that animals have grown to listen for and avoid them.Prof.Karen McComb and Dr Graeme Shannon from the University of Sussex led the study.They explained that in former research they had used similar experiments to show that elephants could tell—from the sound of a lion—whether the animal was a female(雌性)or a more dangerous male(雄性).Prof.McComb wanted to find out if the animals used their very sharp sense of hearing to recognize danger from humans.The scientists recorded Masai men,women and children saying,in their own language,“Look,look over there,a group of elephants are coming.”They also recorded Kamba mensaying this phrase.Masai people often come across elephants,which can result in violent(暴力的)hunting. Kamba people,however,mainly feed on agriculture,which does not generally bring them into violent touch with the animals.When the team played recordings of these different voices through a hidden speaker, they found that elephant family groups showed more fear in response to the voice of a Masai man,than to a Kamba man’s voice.And the adult male Masai voices caused far more violent response than the voices of women or boys.46．An elephant can tell a man from a woman by sense of________.A．touch B．sight C．smell D．hearing 47．How did the researchers get to know the elephants’special ability?A．By watching the elephants in the zoo.B．By playing voice recordings to them. C．By recording the behaviors of elephants.D．By communicating with them in a special way.48．We can learn from the passage that elephants are especially afraid of________. A．Masai men B．Masai women C．Kamba men D．Kamba women 49．What is the best title for the passage?A．Elephants and Human Beings B．Differences Between Human Voices C．Elephants Recognize Human Voices D．Elephants at War with Human Beings【答案】46．D47．B48．A49．CEarthquakes are something that people fear.There are some places that have few or no earthquakes.Most places in the world,however,have them regularly.Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous.The most talked about earthquake in the United States was in San Francisco in1906. Over700people died in it.The strongest one in North America was in1964.It happened in Alaska.Strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people.In1755,one of thestrongest earthquakes ever recorded was felt in Portugal.Around2,000people died.In1923,a very strong earthquake hit Tokyo,Yokohama area of Japan.A hundred and forty thousand people died.Most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake.One of the worst earthquakes ever was in China in2008.It killed a large number of people.The worst earthquake ever reported was also in China,in which400,000people were killed or injured.This earthquake happened in1556.Earthquakes worry people a lot.The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming.People cannot prepare for earthquakes.50．Earthquakes happen________.A．in all the places in the worldB．only in the countries that have a lot of mountainsC．regularly in most places in the worldD．only in a few places along the coast51．When and where was the worst earthquake ever reported?A．In1964in Alaska.B．In1556in China.C．In1923in Japan.D．In2008in China.52．According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true?A．The stronger the earthquake is,the more people are killed.B．Earthquakes often come unexpectedly.C．Earthquakes can cause fires.D．People still don't know how to tell when an earthquake will come.53．What may be talked about in the seventh paragraph?A．How do earthquakes worry people?B．What will people do to prepare for earthquakes?C．How can we save people when earthquakes happen?D．How do earthquakes happen?【答案】50．C51．B52．A53．B。

Sweets and ice-creamare not bad if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take awayour appetite （食欲）. It is important for us to eat our meals at the same time each day. When we feelhungry, it is a sign that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat.A long time ago, in England, some judges （法官）used to decide whether a man was telling the truthby giving him some dry bread. If the man could not eat the bread, it showed that he was telling lies.Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed a very good way of finding out thefact. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in eating anything dry. Because he is worrying, he loses his appetite and does not want to eat.56.We must have good eating habits because _______.A ．we want to eat moreB ．we want to enjoy ourC ．we want to be healthy and strongD ．we want to grow up quic 57.

(For passage D, pick out 5 choices out of 7)AA degree in what?How many people in the world have a university degree in enigmatology? Well, not many. As a matter of fact, the number of enigmatology graduates in the whole world is just one: a man whose job it is to design puzzles for newspapers and magazines. American Will Shortz is an author and crossword editor. He has worked on over a hundred books, and he owns the world’s largest collection of puzzle books and magazines. The oldest title in his collection was published in 1545! And because his work is also his hobby, he has always been interested in learning as much as possible about the subject. Obviously, because he is the only enigmatologist in the world, there were no university professors who could teach him an established course of studies. He did not go to lectures and classes like his fellow students. Shortz designed his own research programme, which the university accepted, and he completed his course and received his bachelor’s degree from Indiana University in 1974.So the question remains, what exactly is enigmatology? It is the study of puzzles: their types, their history, and their popularity. It’s a mixture of history, maths, logic and cultural studies.There were some people who criticized the university for offering a course in such a strange subject, and they were also critical of Shortz, claiming that he had taken advantage of Indiana University’s flexibility. But Shortz has his fans too, such as the former US president Bill Clinton. He sent Shortz a personal note on his 50th birthday because he loves the New York Times crossword, which Shortz edits. Shortz has also been a guest on several television shows, including an episode of the famous cartoon The Simpsons, and the comedy series How I Met YourMother, where he played himself.51．Which of the statement is true according to the text?A. Shortz’s occupation is to write puzzles for university graduates.B. Shortz has worked on all the titles in his collection.C. Shortz did original research and graduated from an American university.D. Bill Clinton sent Shortz a note on his birthday because they’re friends.52. What is the author’s attitude to wards Shortz?A.Indifferent B Neutral C praising D CriticizingBDifferences inside our bodiesDid you know that people who live in different parts of China have different habits and preferences?For example, people from southern China prefer to eat vegetables, while people from north China like to eat meat. But what causes these differences?According to a new study published in the journal Cell in October, gene variations might be responsible for these differences, Xinhua reported.In the study, researchers from Chinese genome-sequencing (基因组测序)firm BGI collected geneticgroups.The researchers found that there are six gene frequencies that are different among people from both northern and southern China. They found that natural selection has played an important role in the ways that people living in different regions of China have evolved, affecting their food preferences, immunities to illness and physical traits, the New York Times reported. The researchers reported that a variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people than it is in southern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids (脂肪酸), which suggests a diet that is rich in meat. According to Xinhua, this is due to climate differences. Northern China is at a higher latitude, which means it’s cold and dry throughout the whole year. This weather is difficult to grow vegetables in. Therefore, northerners tend to eat more meat.The study also found differences in the immune systems of both groups. Most people in southern China carry the gene CR1, which protects against malaria. This is because malaria was once quite common in southern China.In order to survive, the genes of people in the south evolved to fight against this disease. However, people in the south are also more vulnerable to certain blood-borne illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.Genes can also cause physical differences between northerners and southerners. Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax (⽿屎), l ess body odor and fewer sweat secretions (分泌), The New York Times reported. These physical differences are also more beneficial to living in cold environments. Southerners are less likely to have this gene, as it did not evolve in their population.53. What’s this passage mainly about?A. A study of the genes of Chinese minority groups.B. Habits of people from different regions of China.C. Differences in the genes of people from different parts of China.D. Physical differences between northerners and southerners.54. A variation of the gene FADS2 can help our body ______.A. store fatB. digest meatC. fight diseaseD. control sweat55. The u nderlined word “comprised” is closest in meaning to ______.A. consisted ofB. compared toC. completedD. started with56. According to the passage, most northerners in China______.a. tend to have less disease like malariab. have less body odorc. catch blood-borne illnesses easilyd. sweat less frequentlyA. abB. bcC. bdD. cdCCould the Futuristic Traveling Tube Become a Reality?It sounds like something straight out of a science fiction movie or a silly cartoon: a futuristic traveling tube that can quickly shoot people wherever they want to go, inside a tiny pod. But this may be just around the corner for people looking for a faster, easier, and cheaper-than-ever way to travel. South African-American inventor and billionaire Elon Musk, who, in the past, has worked on both private space flight and electric cars, recentlyannounced he has been working on the design of this traveling tube, which could forever change the way we travel the world.In an interview, Musk described t he new tube as a fifth kind of transportation. “We have planes, trains, automobiles, and boats,” he explained. “What if there was a fifth mode? I have a name for it, [it’s] called the Hyperloop.”The Hyperloop would have the power to cut back on travel time between major cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco, which is what inspired Musk to design the Hyperloop in the first place. Musk stated in an interview that he actually came up with the idea for the Hyperloop while thinking about the train that takes people between Los Angeles and San Francisco—it is known for being one of the slowest in the country.“This system I have in mind...can never crash, is immune to weather, it goes three or four times faster than the bullet train…it goes an average speed of twice what an aircraft would do,” explained Musk.“You would go from downtown L. A. to downtown San Francisco in under 30 minutes,” he added. “It would cost you much less than an air ticket [and less] than any other mode of transport.”People using the Hyperloop would shoot around in pods, which are each just over six-and-a-half feet across, and the pods would travel through tubes located either above ground or under water, though Musk has not yet released his final design drawings.Additionally, Musk believes the Hyperloop could be completely powered by the sun—making it more environmentally friendly than cars, airplanes, or train systems. Someday it could possibly move people between the East and West Coasts of the United States in less than an hour, which is faster than any other mode of transportation that exists. Eventually, the Hyperloop would be able to move people around the world.57. What does this passage describe?A. A traveling tube that could help people get around in the future.B.The costs of building traveling tubes around the world.C.The damage that cars, planes, and trains do to the environment.D.The reasons that people are looking for a cheaper-than-ever way to travel.58. If built, the Hyperloop would be faster than any other type of transportation. Why?A.People using the Hyperloop would travel in pods that are about six-and-a-half feet across.B.The Hyperloop is being designed to travel at twice the speed of an airplane.C.Right now people can fly, drive, or take a train to get from Los Angeles to San Francisco.D.Inventors in other countries are working on technology similar to the Hyperloop.59. Why might people want to use the Hyperloop instead of other kinds of transportation?A.People with motion sickness might not be able to handle the Hyperloop.B.People are tired of using the same four kinds of transportation over and over.C.The Hyperloop could take people to places where planes and trains do not go.D.People would not have to pay as much to use the Hyperloop.60. What is this passage mainly about?A.Science fiction movies and cartoons featuring futuristic traveling tubes with tiny pods.B.The interest that inventor Elon Musk has in private space flight and electric cars.C.Why the train between Los Angeles and San Francisco is one of the slowest in the country.D. A tube that could make travel in the future easier, faster, and cheaper.DTribute can go to anythingSince 1927, Time has chosen to profile a person or group and feature them on its front page.61. Here are three of the Time’ma gazine’s more unconventional choices:“The Computer”, 1982At the start of the 1980s, home computing was just starting to take off, with companies like Sinclair and Apple releasing consumer-focused machines to the masses. 62–they were mainly only useful for word processing or extremely basic gaming – at the time they were new, exciting and exotic.“This sweetheart here, this little baby, looks like any ordinary machine, isn’t that so? 63 Comes with new words too: RAM and ROM,” wrote Time.“You”, 2006In the age when sites like YouTube and Facebook were in their new and had not developed very much, Time named those who created and uploaded “user-generated content” onto such websites as its choice of the year.64 ,with a writer for The Atlantic later remark ing: “Is anyone out there not sick of people ironically listing ‘Time Person of the Year, 2006’ in Twitter bios – a reference to the gimmicky(巧妙⼿法的) selection of ‘You’ that year? Didn’t think so.”“Endangered Earth”, 1989During a period of heightened awareness of global warming and climate change, 65 This led to an environmental action plan being later published after Time invited a team of environmental experts and policymakers to an environmental conference it organized.Cloze TestAbbey Ahern, 34, who lives in Oklahoma, was devastated when she was 66 at her 19-week scan that her daughter had the 67 illness anencephaly (先天⽆脑畸形) which meant she would not live beyond a few 68 .According to the National Institutes of Health, the defect means the baby has an 69 brain and incomplete skull. Approximately one in 10,000 babies in the US are born with anencephaly, most of which result 70 miscarriage.(流产).As a result, Abbey and her pilot husband Robert, also 34, decided to have a 71 birth in the next few hours so that they could spend time with their daughter and 72 her organs - making Annie the first infant 73 donor in the state.74 they asked the doctor for the gender of their unborn child and decided to name her 75 the spot. They named her easily: Annie, which means, "grace."Abbey said: ‘76 a terminally-ill baby to 77 was by far the most difficult thing I have ever done... For us, even in the midst of our terrible 78 we were able to see so much 79.’The family spent just 14 hours and 58 minutes with Annie before she 80 away.Her 81 were not viable for transplant 82 her oxygen levels were too low - which Abbey said was 'disappointing' - but they were able to donate her heart valves（瓣膜） an d some of her organs could be used for 83.She said: 'Annie's story is one of 84.

There are still plenty of places on Earth that we haven’t explored: the bottom of the oceans, for example. Why don’t we invest in looking for natural resources there, or for ways to start a colony under the sea? These possibilities are just as exciting as anything we might do in space.2 I think people have forgotten what’s really important. Scientists used to make discoveries that made our lives safer or healthier, and our work easier and more productive. These days it’s all about new forms of entertainment, new ways of was ting time … I’m thinking of things like digital TV, smartphones, computer games. We were perfectly happy without these, and we’ll still be happy if we stop making them one day.3 I think the potential of space is really exciting. It’s not just about visit ing new places; space exploration can help us change our ideas. Scientists can carry out experiments in space that would impossible on Earth. The modern space projects promote co-operation between nations, too – think about the International Space Station, for example. Russia, Europe, Japan and the United States are all building it together. Just thirty years ago it would have been impossible. Would I say yes if anyone asked me to go into space? Definitely!4 Technology develops so fast, it’s difficult to keep up. By the time you buy a new smartphone or an mp3 player, it’s already out of date. I love that! I spend a lot of my free time on the Internet looking for news about new gadgets. It’s just a shame I don’t have the money to buy everything I like.5 I think technology is changing relationships between people. Social-networking sites make it easier to maintain friendships that you don’t have the time for in real life, mobile phones mean we can go anywhere and still keep in touch with people whoare important to us, and Wi-Fi hotspots allow us to work and communicate from almost anywhere. We aren’t tied to one way of doing things any more.

He and his best friends, Josue and Martin, were playing with long branches pulled from the tre e in the neighbor’s yard. These branches make terrific swords. They clacked loudly when knocked together. Enrique had shaved the bark from the end of his sword so he could get a firmer grip. Nowhe was battling Martin, blocking his friend’s every move and thrusting forward when he had the chance.The three friends chased each other up and down the dirt lane in front of the house, swords waving in the air. Theirhomemade shirts and pants protected them, mostly, from the coolness of the March afternoon, but out in the sun, the boys felt warm. Enrique ran barefoot since, like most children, he only wore shoes when he went to school or to church, or when it was too cold for bare food.英语运⽤参考答案21-25 DADDA26-30 BBDBA31-35 DACAC36. celebrations37. excitement38. waiting39. had been launched40. enough41. were42. containing, which/that contained43. essential44. them45. when46.

高一下册期中考试英语试题考试时间：150分钟满分：120分第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）略第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）•（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
AI can’t think of a better way of appreciating a new culture than by taking part in one of its festivals. You’ll find that some festivals are celebrated by an entire country, while others may be known only to a single city or region, but either way festivals play an important role in a certain culture. Just enjoy them!★Tomatina — Bunol, SpainEvery last Wednesday in August, the town of Bunol is filled with tons of tomatoes in the world’s biggest food flight. Many people wear goggles (护目镜) during this hour of great fun, as the town becomes a red river.★Boryeong Mud Festival — Boryeong, South KoreaFor two weeks in July, millions gather in Boryeong to experience the grey pools and slides. What began as a way to help sell the region’s mineral-rich mud has turned into a festive party with music and fireworks. The mud is usually only available in cosmetic products (化妆品), but here you can cake yourself in grey as you want.★Holi — IndiaHoli, the Festival of Colors, is a Hindu celebration full of joy and one of India’s most important holidays. During the day of the last full moon of the lunar month, usually late February or early March, the air is full of brightly colored powder (粉末). The festival is celebrated differently throughout the country, with bonfires and music, but the cheerful spirit is common among Hindu people around the world.★International Pillow Fight Day — WorldwideTens of thousands of people took part in the 4th annual International Pillow Fight Day on April 2, 2013．From London to Vancouver to many other cities, the festival is held in more than 100 countries. So just bring a soft pillow in early April, and watch feathers fly. 21．According to the author, _______________.A．it’s usually hard for people to accept a different cultureB．festivals in a certain culture often change with timeC． there should be festivals celebrated by the whole worldD． festivals give people the best chances to experience a culture22．We learn from the passage that _______________.A．the town of Bunol in Spain is on a riverB．International Pillow Fight Day has a short historyC．cosmetic products sell well on Boryeong Mud FestivalD．Holi is the greatest festival for Indian people23．The passage is most likely to be found in __________.A．a travel magazine B．a technical reportC． a geography book D．a personal diaryBWhen I came to Cincinnati (a city in the US) as an au pair (家庭打工留学生), a lot of things there were different from what I knew. My host family lived in a huge house I could only describe as a “castle”. In Germany I had lived in a small apartment together with my mom. Soon I found out that the “castle” was actually rather small in our neighborhood.Everybody there was very friendly and polite. They greeted you when they were walking by at least 3 feet away from you. They must not have seen a German au pair before, for most people I met asked me all kinds of questions about Germany. I enjoyed answering their various strange questions. I made a lot of friends and I started to hang out with them.Of course, there were a number of new things, and it took me the whole year to find them all out. I never got homesick. Perhaps it was because I did not have too many negative (负面的) experiences and felt loved and welcomed there.However, I had undergone some painful experiences back in Germany. I was frustrated by the way people would run me over and not even say “Sorry.” Taking up my studies at the TU-Dresden, I felt lonely. Everybody here seemed to be withdrawn (离群的) and I missed everything I had in Cincinnati. Germany was so “cold”. I found it so much harder to make new friends. After six months I got a roommate and only two good friends. I also flew back to Cincinnati several times for long periods. I felt that without those visits I was not able to make it.Now I am over this German culture shock. It almost took me an entire year. I am still going back and forward between Dresden and Cincinnati four times a year.24．When the author lived in Cincinnati, _______________.A．some people were not very kind to herB．many people were curious about her motherlandC．she lived in a real castleD．she lived in the biggest house in the neighborhood25．In the opinion of the author, life in Cincinnati was ________.A．hard B．painfulC．wonderful D． strange26．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the author?A．She lived with her mother in a big house in Germany.B．She did miss her friends in Cincinnati when she was at the TU-Dresden.C．She never went back to Cincinnati after she came back to Germany.D．She seldom hung out with her American friends as she was too busy.27．What is the best title for this passage?A．University life in GermanyB．Advantages of living in USAC．My culture shock experienceD． How to be an au pair in USACYou are what you eat and fats are a main food for Asia’s fast-food generation. Dr. Chwang, director of the Department of Food Nutrition, says children are eating more meat and drinking more soft drinks. That is totally different from the traditional diet of vegetables and rice and little meat. “They like big pieces of fried meat with a soft drink. So although they may eat the same amount of food, their calorie intake (卡路里摄入量) has increased. Now about 40 to 45 percent of their calories come from fat,” says Chwang.Although on the whole Asians are often thin, culture — namely Asians’ hospitality (热情好客) — is a reason for the fatness of today’s generation, according to Chwang. “Asian people love food,” she says, “Eating and drinking are important social and family activities.”In the past, however, big meals were only hosted for special events, as people were more careful with money. In today’s climate of wealth and high consumption (消耗), 10-course meals are no longer reserved for important times.“In the past, people had four or more children — now, they have one or two, so they are likely to spoil them,” says Chwang. “The easiest way is to give them ‘quality food’. Parents think feeding them well is showing their love. They feel bad when their children look thin.”When describing the physical condition of most overweight Asian children, Chwang says：“there is a clear relationship between fatness and indoor play. Children get fat because they don’t move, and in the end, they don’t want to move because they are fat.”Because of technology, a growing army of children prefer video games to old outdoor sports. “What do children do when watching TV or sitting in front of the computer playing video games? They eat chocolate and drink Coke,” says Chwang.28．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．Asian children no longer follow their diet tradition.B．Asian people now like to save more money.C．Asian children eat big meals more often.D．Culture leads to the fatness of Asian children.29．According to the passage, the quality food fed by more parents is actually ________. A．healthful food B．qualified foodC．high-calorie food D．agreeable food30．Some parents feel bad when their children look thin, because __________________. A．they feel that they are not wealthy enough to afford “quality food”B．they feel that they don’t take good care of their childrenC．the children don’t have a good physical conditionD．their children don’t love eating and drinking31．The purpose of this article is to _________________.A．compare the traditional diet with today’s diet of Asian childrenB．find reasons for increased food consumption of Asian peopleC．prove the relationship between fatness and indoor playD．explain why many Asian children are overweight nowadaysDRetirement (退休) should be time of joy and freedom. However, for some people retirement comes with feelings of depression (沮丧), which makes life difficult for them.Retirement is a major life change. Even good changes usually involve some kinds of loss. When you retire, you find yourself lacking whatever working used to provide. That could include, for example, 1．knowing you’re working for society, 2．getting admiration from your skills, 3．having “aha” moments when you solve problems, 4．having people to socialize with, and 5．simply having a place to go and a reason to get out of bed every day. For most people, there’s a financial loss, too. Also, retirement age is a time when a lot of people have to deal with losing their parents or having serious health problems of their own.Because of all these, retirees are more likely to get depressed.Depression is very harmful. First, depression can make physical health problems worse. Second, it takes a toll on relationships, because it can make people angry. Third, it’s hard to getmuch done when you’re depressed.What can we do to overcome (克服) the feelings of depression? First, do all the things that help depression in general：drink enough water, exercise, talk to friends, have a hobby, laugh, and spend time in nature. If you feel depressed more often than not, it’s probably time to talk to a doctor about your feelings. Second, it’s important to keep busy and get out of the house when you can. Make specific plans with friends. Take a class Volunteer. Or just make sure you start each day with some kind of goal. Third, try to focus on what you’ve gained by retiring. Think about what you may have now that you wished you had before you were able to retire. For example, days that are less stressful, a chance to rest and take better care of your body, more time for your family and yourself. To write, to start a hobby and to learn something new are all new possibilities. Finally, tell your story. You’ve lived a long time and you become an oral historian each time you talk with someone about your experiences. You can also write in a journal or make a video recording of your memories. Telling your stories can help you look back on your life and career with a sense of wholeness and achievements.32．People may find life very hard after they retire because of ___________.A．freedom B．nervousnessC．discouragement (losing heart) D．hard work33．All the following can cause the retirees’ unpleasant feelings EXCEPT ____________.A．they will suffer from financial lossB．they have to support their parentsC．they may lose the reason to get up earlyD．they may have fewer people to socialize with34．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means ________________.A．it makes people’s relationships unusualB．it makes people’s relationships in peaceC．it makes people’s relationships in dangerD．it makes people stay in touch with each other.35．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Depression and RetirementB．Depression During Retirement Is HarmfulC．Reasons for Depression During RetirementD．How to Overcome Depression During Retirement第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

第十八中学2021-2021学年高一英语下学期期中试题第一卷〔一共70分〕一、阅读理解〔一共两节，满分是40分〕第一节〔一共15小题；每一小题2分，满分是30分〕ADinner customs are different around the world. If you are a guest in Ghana (加纳), this information will help you a lot.In Ghana, dinner is usually from four in the afternoon to six in the evening.But there are no strict rules about time. Whenever a guest arrives, a family offers food. When you go to a home, the person who receives guests takes you to the living room first. At this time everyone welcomes you. Then you go to the dinning room.There you wash your hands in a bowl of water. All the food is on the table.In Ghana you usually eat with your fingers. You eat from the same dish as everyone else. But you eat from one side of the dish only. It is not polite to get food from the other side of the dish. After dinner, you wash your hands again in a bowl of water.Most meals in Ghana have a dish called fufu. People in Ghana make fufu from the powder of some plants. Sometimes they cut the fufu with a saw(锯子) because it is very hard. You must chew fufu well, or you may get sick. You eat fufu with the fingers of your right hand only.1. From the passage we know that in Ghana ________.A. the rules for dinner time are not strictB. dinner is always at six in the eveningC. a family offers food only at four in the afternoonD. people usually invite their guests to dinner late in the evening2. If you are a dinner guest in Ghana, the host always takes you to ________.A. the dining room firstB. the living room firstC. the kitchen firstD. the garden first3. People in Ghana usually eat ________.A. from one side of a dish to the otherB. from the other side of the dishC. with their fingersD. with their spoons4. When you eat fufu, you'd better ________.A. cut it with a sawB. use your right hand onlyC. chew it wellD. all of the aboveBIf you're traveling to the United States，you need to understand the common way to say hello－a handshake. Friends shake hands. Women，men and even children can shake hands.Shaking hands also seems simple，but there are some important things to remember. When you shake hands，you must look into the other person's eyes the whole time you're shaking hands.Shake hands strongly. If you give a weak handshake，the other person might think that you're not kind. He / She might also feel that you don't like him / her or you don't want to touch him / her. Shake hands with men and women the same way. If you shake hands with a very old person or a small child，be careful not to hurt them.Some people don't know how long to keep shaking. The most common handshake should have three shakes and then you should let go. Don't worry if Americans shake hands a little longer.Your handshake is like your smile. It's special to you. You need to find a comfortable strong handshake that shows what you are like. Because the handshake allows people to touch，the hand should be warm，clean and dry.Warm：Put your hands into your pockets before you shake hands. This will warm them.Clean：If you know you're going to meet someone，wash your hands so they'll be clean.Dry：Everyone gets nervous and your hands may get wet. It isn't a good feeling for the other person. Again，put your hands into your pockets. This will dry them.5. When you stay in the USA，the common way to greet is to ____.A. bowB. kissC. hugD. shake hands6. If you give a weak handshake in America，the other person might think that you're ________.A. unfriendlyB. braveC. friendlyD. outgoing7. Which of the following can be the BEST title for the passage?A.

Make a goal to form new classroom habits. The new habits you form can protect the environment. Check out these new habit ideas for reducing the waste in your classroom.Recycling Cut back on the rubbish you throw away. Get a large box or bin. Place the bin next to the garbage can. Throw the paper into the bin instead of throwing the paper here and there. Take the bin to a recycling center once the bin is full of paper. Many schools earn money for the waste paper they are able to collect and recycle. Help your school by recycling paper.Reducing Reduce the paper you use. Make it a habit to write on both sides of your notebook paper. Also try writing your words smaller so you can fit more on the paper. The more words you can fit on both sides of your paper, the less paper you will need. Do not write too small, because others need to be able to read your handwriting.Saving Turn off the lights when you are not in the classroom. Also, turn off computers when they are not being used. Closing the window blind will also help save energy.Reusing Use paper from the recycling bin. Create art projects or paper for math problems. Turn your classroom waster into treasures!By doing these over and over again, the habits will become part of what you do without even thinking about doing them.8. What should we do to form a new classroom habit?A. Check it out.B. Have a talk.C. Make a decision.D. Make a goal.9. Where shall we throw the waste paper when we’re in the classroom?A. In a large box or bin.B. In the garbage can.C. At the classroom corner.D. On the floor of the classroom.10. In order to reduce the paper we use, which is the advice that the writer gives us?A.

How to protect the environment.B.Reduce the waste in the classroom.C. We should form a new habit.D. Turn your classroom waster into treasures.DWhen you want to go shopping, decide how much money you can spend for new clothes. Think about the kind of clothes you really need. Then look for those clothes on sale.There are labels〔标签〕 inside all new clothes. The labels tell you how to take care of your clothes. The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water.A sweater label may tell you to wash by washing in cold water. The label on a coat may say "dry clean only." Washing may ruin(损坏)this coat. If you do as the directions say on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best. Many clothes today must be dry cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes, check to see if they will need to be dry cleaned. You will save money if you buy clothes that can be washed.You can save money if you buy clothes that are well made. Well-made clothes last longer. They look good even after they have been washed many times. Clothes that cost more money are not always better made. They do not always fit better. Sometime less expensive clothes look and fit better than more expensive clothes.12.If you want to save money， you can buy clothes that _____.A.don't fit youB. don't last longC.need to be dry cleanedD.can be washed13.The label inside the clothes tell you______.A.how to keep them looking their bestB.how to save moneyC.whether they fit you or notD.where to get them dry cleaned14.The first thing for you to do before you buy clothes is ______.A.to look for well-made clothesB.to see how much money you can payC.to know how to wash themD.to read the labels inside them15.We learn from the reading that cheaper clothes ______.A.are always worse madeB.must be dry cleanedC.can not be washedD.can sometimes fit you better 第二节(一共5小题；每一小题2分，满分是10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。
