They often go into the Internet as soon as they are free. They make fiends on the Internet and maybe they have never see n these friends. They don‟t know their real names, ages, and even sex. They are so interested in making the “unreal friends” that they can‟t put their hearts into study. Many of them can‟t catch up with others on many subjects because of that.We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world. but at the same time, we should remember tha t not all the things can be done by computers and the Internet.60.

Can you tell me whe re‟s a phone box?”“Oh!” he said,“there‟s a phone downstairs.”When at last we met,Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.“Don‟t worry,”he said to me.“I have so many difficulties at first.

山西省高一下学期期末英语试卷(含有答案解析)(满分:150分;考试时间:120分钟)学校:___________班级:___________姓名:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解The world is a splendid place, full of hidden and overt beauty in every corner. Here are some of the most beautiful places around the world.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, UgandaBwindi Impenetrable Forest is one of the last harbors of the mountain gorilla (大猩猩). Several hundred call this UNESCO World Heritage Site home, with the chance for visitors hike and meet habituated groups. Its biodiversity extends far beyond its most famous inhabitants. However -almost 350 bird species and around 220 butterfly species can be found within its 331-square-kilometer expanse.Samburu, KenyaThanks to its relative inaccessibility in the heart of Kenya, Samburu is a haven (避难所) for some of Africa’s most charming wildlife. The grassland and acacia-dotted landscapes of its national reserve are home to the endangered giraffe and zebra, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, ChinaChina’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Hunan Province is known for its towering sandstone pillars (柱子). Best explored on foot, its back trails make for an easy way to escape the crowds and find the best views. As the mists fall, it’s easy to sea why this area has long been an inspiration for traditional Chinese paintings.The MaldivesThe sand of its 1,200 islands is as white as it gets, and the water is a deep blue that puts all other seas in the shade. The Indian Ocean nation of the Maldives has developed into the world’s premier tropical hot spot for a reason. Best of all, there are plenty of beaches to go around, with over 100 private resorts and welcoming, affordable guesthouses around the Male and Ari atolls.1.What makes Samburu a haven for wildlife?A.Its landscape. B.Its location.C.Its climate. D.Its food.2.What do Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Zhangjiajie National Forest Park have in common?A.They are home to gorillas.B.They have more than 350 bird species.C.They are on the World Heritage Site List.D.They are inspirations for traditional paintings.3.Which of the following suits beach-lovers?A.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. B.Samburu.C.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. D.The Maldives.Last weekend, my husband and I drove a dog to her new home. Typically, when we have a new dog in the backseat, it’s a young dog. But this passenger was a much different story. Magdalen is a 13-year old dog. Her owner gave her up temporarily when he was sick, but when he fully recovered several months later, he said he didn’t want her back. He had her since she was young but now had no place for her.The family who had given her a temporary home had children and other dogs and was unable to give her a forever home. When Speak St, Louis, the rescue team I work with, was contacted about the dog, they offered to take her in. She went to a vet (兽医) for a basic health check. But the vet didn’t have great news. Her mouth was swollen (肿胀的) with all sorts of problems. Two teeth fell out during cleaning and eleven more had to be pulled out.Luckily, a good friend of mine, a dog trainer with a soft heart for seniors, had agreed to adopt Magdalen. On the trip to the trainer’s home, the sweet senior looked so relaxed in our backseat. I felt a great sense of relief and pleasure.Her owner needed some temporary help when he was sick. But I can’t imagine why he wouldn’t have wanted her back. I think of my own dog and dogs we lost to old age in the past. We’re family and we stay that way forever. She’d be able to live a good life. I hoped, in her new home!4.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.The former owners of the dog.B.Where the dog was treated.C.What the dog needed most.D.The problems the dog met.5.What is the author’s job?A.Training old dogs.B.Treating sick dogs.C.Looking for homes for dogs.D.Looking for lost dogs’ owners.6.How did the author feel on her way to her friend’s home?A.Relieved and happy. B.Nervous and grateful.C.Surprised and curious. D.Hopeful and proud.7.What does the author think of Magdalen’s owner giving her up?A.She didn’t understand his behaviour.B.She believed it was painful for him.C.She was certain he would regret.D.She thought he made a wise decision.Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this, tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical (按字母顺序), never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, bow ever hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can - then let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relieved, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.8.What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A.Writing essays in strict order.B.Building up physical strength.C.Leaving out the toughest ideas.D.Dealing with the hardest task first.9.On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue? A.Before starting a difficult task.B.When all the solutions fail.C.If the job is rather boring.D.After finding a way out.10.According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us ________ . A.ignore mental problemsB.get some nice sleepC.gain complete reliefD.find the right solution11.What could be the best title for the passage?A.Success Is Built upon FailureB.How to Handle Performance FatigueC.Getting over Fatigue: A Way to SuccessD.Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health ProblemsKite surfing is a sport that takes place on the surface of the water, on top of boards that are similar in design to wakeboards (尾波滑水板), with the surfer pulled by a kite. The popularity of kite surfing has grown, although it is rather difficult to master. Kite surfing uses the same equipment as kite boarding, but is generally given more to riding on top of waves, rather than on smaller lakes or other calm bodies of water.Early experiments in kite transportation took place through the 19th century, and at the dawn of the 20th century Samuel Cody crossed the English Channel using kites and a small boat. Kite surfing itself, however, wasn’t really born until the late 1970s. Beginning in that decade, more people became involved in using kites for personal transport and sport. Kite technology itself advanced enormously during the 1970s, with kites becoming much more controllable.The early kite surfing was rather accidental, but innovators continued to develop the technology to make it easier to control and safer. By the late 1990s, kite surfing was becoming popular off the coast of Maui, France and throughout the world. In 1997, a special kite system was built specifically for kite surfing, which helped kite surfing into the mainstream.Because of the high speeds and the dangers, it is generally recommended that would-be kite surfers take at least a few basic classes to learn the fundamentals.The main attraction of kite surfing is the potential for amazing tricks. The kite allows the surfer to experience enormous jumps, flying through the air for large distances before hitting the water in a controlled fashion.

They are in their shells (壳) —sleeping.Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at t he least sign of hot sun, a snail draws(拉) its body into his shell. A snail will die ina heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.In the spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches (英寸)long, comes out from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers (触角), are very weak. But its sense (感觉) of smell(嗅) is very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens.A snail’s mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin (大头针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very small, and you can’t see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.1.A snail _________.A. moves more slowly at nightB. has thousands of feetC. doesn’t move at allD. sleeps much of the time2.In the sentence “A snail draws its body into its shell”, the word “draw” means _____.A. to make with a pencilB. to pushC. to pullD. to move away3.From the story, we know _________.A. a snail’s shell is very thinB. a snail can’t see wellC. a snail’s nose is quite shortD. a snail’s body changes in different seasons4.A snail goes to sleep when _____.A. it feels hungryB. it is put into a paper boxC. spring is comingD. it rains heavily5.Which of the following is wrong?A.

It not only gives the meaning of words, it can also help you with spelling, word building, grammar (语法) and pronunciation(发音).To use your dictionary correctly, you need to understand how the dictionary works. At the front of the book, you will find some exercises to help you make the most use of your dictionary.If you look up the word “colour”, you will find two spellings for this word. “Colour” is used in British English, while “color” is used in American English. When such a thing happens, the dictionary shows it with the word “BrE” for British English and “AmE” for American English.The dictionary also helps you pronounce words correctly. It uses a special alphabet (特殊字母表) to show pronunciation. If you turn to the inside back face, you will see all the phonetic letters (音标) with some words to show you how they are pronounced. Just have a look this page when you’re not sure how to say a word.The most important reason for using a dictionary is to find out the meaning of a word—its definition.In this dictionary, the definitions have been written using only 2000 words. This means that the definitions of even the most difficult words are simply explained (简单解释) and easy to understand.When a word has more than one meaning, read all the meanings until you find the one that correctly tells the use of the word you are looking for.Most of the words in this dictionary can be used by people in all parts of the world.1.This dictionary cannot help you with _____.A. singingB. grammarC. spellingD. pronunciation2. ____of the words in the dictionary have two spellings.A.

He made a name for himself not only as a well respected businessman , but as a kind man as well.One of Levi’s many customers was a tailor (裁缝) named Jacob Davis.

Jacob’s new style of trousers was indeed much stronger and quickly became popular with miners (矿工) and others who worked outdoors. When Jacob needed money to expand (扩展) his production of the new trousers, he thought of Levi Strauss. Levi agreed to cooperate (合作) with him. On May 20,1873,the two men received their trademark(商标) from the authority(权威,当局).

The Sears Tower is the world’s third tallest building.D. You can get tickets to the Oprah Winfrey Show as soon as you arrive.BSome people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know? Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks (平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be inevery home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.1.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledge.B. cinemas are the best choice in getting information.C. reading is a cheap way of learning and having fun.D. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself.2.What does the sentences “Television has not killed reading, however ” underlined in the second paragraph suggest?A. People only need reading, though.B. Reading is still necessary today.C. Reading is more fun than television.D. Watching television doesn’t help reading.3.What can we learn from the passage?CZach drove over to Mary’s place. She would be his wife soon. She was in China, visiting her parents. Her son Bradley hadn’t gone with her. Bradley was a junior in high school. He neither liked nor disliked Zach, even though he had known Zach for three years. Zach was still trying to get along well with Bradley.When Zach arrived, he asked if Bradley wanted to drive his car. Bradley had a driver’s licens e. Bradley said all right. Zach told him not to drive fast, but that he could drive anywhere he wanted. Bradley got on the road. Zach gave Bradley a few driving tips: Don’t drive next to big trucks, because you never know when they might crush(碾压) you. Don’t drive behind trucks filled with things, because you never know when something in the truck will fly out and hit your car.On their way back, Zach suggested that they stop at the golf course. He wanted to show Bradley how to play golf. Bradle y wasn’t interested. He preferred his video games. But Bradley soon discovered that golf was fun! He hit a lot of balls. Zach told him that he was doing well. The next day Bradley, for the first time ever, called Zach. He had a few blisters(水疱) on his hands. Zach said that usually happened. Then Bradley asked if Zach would come next Saturday so they could take a drive and hit golf balls again. Zach said, of course, and felt happy.1. The best title(题目) for the text might be “________”.A. You are not my dad, but I begin to love you!B. I begin to love you, my son!C. You can do better, boy!D. Do you love me, dad?2. Zach let Bradley drive his car because ________.A. he wanted to teach Bradley how to driveB. he wanted to take Bradley to the golf courseC. he wanted to go to see MaryD. he wanted to get on well with Bradley3. At first, Bradley liked ________ better than golf.A. drivingB. video gamesC. his lessonsD. a driver’s license4. The next day, Bradley telephoned mainly to ________.A. ask Zach to teach him to driveB. ask Zach to see his mother MaryC. show Zach his friendlinessD. invite Zach to the golf courseDSocieties all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits died hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries —in both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases. If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus —obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interestin g example, “Base Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay(马来语). Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their sh apes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent(月牙)because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.1.What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Change suddenly.B. Change significantly.C. Disappear mysteriously.D. Disappear very slowly.2.Which of the following places is named after a person?A. Raffles Place.B. Selector Airbase.C. Piccadilly Circus.D. Paya Lebar Crescent.3.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain.B. Some places in Singapore are named for military purposes.C. The way Singaporeans name their places is unique.D. Young Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers.四、阅读填空What is a dream?For centuries, people have wondered about the strange places that they seem to visit in their sleep.1 However, they have been valued as necessary to a person's health and happiness. Historically people thought dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams scientifically believing that they tell about a person's character.2 He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life.The second theory to become popular was Carl Jung's compensation theory. Jung, a former student of Freud, said that the purpose of a dream is not to hide something, but rather to communicate it to the dreamer. 3 Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes.Using more recent research, William Domhoff from the University of California found that dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop in humans. , 4 Until they reach age five, they can not express very well what their dreams are about. Once people become adults, there is little or no change in their dreams. The dreams of men and women differ. For instance, The characters that appear in the dreams of men are often other men, and often involve physical aggression.The meaning of dreams continues to be difficult to understand. 5 If you dream that a loved one is going to die, do not panic. The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that your loved one is going to die.A.Dreams make up for what is lacking in waking life.B.However, people should not take their dreams as reality.C.They have been considered as meaningless nighttime journeys.D.It gives scientists chances to better understand human mind.E.Children do not dream as much as adults.F.They think their mind is trying to tell them something.G.First, there was Sigm und Freud’s theory.五、书面表达参考答案三、阅读理解A1-4 CABDB1-3 DCBC1-4 ADBCD1-3 DAA四、阅读填空1-5 CGAEB五、书面表达。

Here is some advice I want to give you.To keep fit, it is necessary for you to have a healthy diet. You’d better have different foods, especially fruits and vegetables, and drink milk as often as possible. It’s not a good idea to take weight-loss pills for a slim and attractive figure. It is not worth it. Having enough sleep together with regular exercise such as walking and riding is also beneficial to your health. Besides, you should take an active part in school sports. In my opinion, it is not a good habit to spend too much time reading, watching TV or chatting on-line. Always be active and keep optimistic and don’t be discouraged (disappointed/frustrated/upset) whenever you meet with trouble.Yours,Li Hua。

山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)
山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)(满分:150分;考试时间:120分钟)学校:___________班级:___________姓名:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解The village of Hallstatt in Austria is a collection of old buildings. In summer, the mountains are green and the village is lovely. In winter, it’s like something out of a snow-covered fairy tale. Now it is being overrun with tourists, partly because it looks like the village from the movie Frozen. The town’s mayor is actually hoping that many tourists will stay away.Hallstatt is small. Fewer than 800 people live there. But the number of visitors who arrive each day is huge — up to 10,000 visitors a day. Hallstatt’s popularity first began when it became a World Heritage Site in 1997. But the number of visitors increased quickly after the release of Disney’s movie Frozen in 2013. Though much of Frozen was based on life in Norway, Hallstatt looks a lot like Arendelle, the main village in the movie. Some people believe that Arendelle was based on Hallstatt.Much of the tourism is driven by social media. Many of the visitors seem mainly interested in taking photos with the village in the background. Some local people feel stressed about it. With 10,000 visitors a day, that’s over 12 tourists for every person in Hallstatt. One man said his mother had woken up one day to find tourists in her bedroom.The mayor would prefer to have fewer tourists. He thinks the town would be just fine with about one third fewer visitors each year. Starting from this year, Hallstatt will begin a program to reduce the number of buses bringing visitors to the village.Before the tourism boomed, local people would leave Hallstatt to find work. Now many people depend upon the tourists for their living. Hotel rooms can cost between $350 and $450. And it costs over one dollar to use the public bathroom in Hallstatt. With 10,000 visitors a day, even toilets can be good business.1.What do we know about the village of Hallstatt in Austria?A.It has appeared in many famous movies.B.It is beautiful but crowded with tourists.C.It has a small population for its bad weather.D.It is an old village with poor customer service.2.What did the man mentioned in Paragraph 3 want to express?A.Visitors were welcome to stay at local homes.B.Local life was badly influenced by visitors.C.Social media brought visitors to his village.D.The locals had a close relationship with visitors.3.Which of the following best explains the word “boom” in the last Paragraph? A.Sigh. B.Drop. C.Decline. D.Rocket.4.What can we conclude from the text?A.Hallstatt is having fewer visitors for the high cost.B.Local people are satisfied with their life in Hallstatt.C.Tourism brings both trouble and benefits to local people.D.Local people have difficulty improving the housing service.Marie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian-Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read.I thought about it for a few seconds and replied, “Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection.I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Everyweek I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.On one occasion, Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carre. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers. Of course, I wished Miss Lantelme to hand the new mystery of John le Carre to me.All these memories flashed through my mind while I sweated my way through my work—out of breath, giving thanks to the librarians of the world, like Miss Lantelme, who gave me a lifetime of joy, not only the stories.5.What made the author interested in mysteries?A.The book her grandfather gave to her. B.The unknown feeling of a pre-teen girl.C.The professional service of Lantelme. D.The opinion her grandfather gave to her.6.What can we infer about the author from paragraph 3?A.She was interested in Agatha’s works B.She took exercise around the library.C.She bought a book from Lantelme. D.She went to Lantelme’s home. 7.Which is the best title for the text?A.An Impressive Book B.Lifelong Joy from My GrandfatherC.A Happy Memory for the Books D.Three Books the Author Wanted to ReadFamous Drama Theater Performances In The WorldTheater is indeed one of the arts which will usually be staged in opera houses with various stories that they will pick up.

But the first appearance of this drama was so long ago. That was in 1985. Drama Fences raised the story of the treatment provided by the American and also African who received unpleasant treatment or racist treatment. and was trying to get out of the problem.Who’s Afraid of Virginia WoolfThis one tells about the badness of a household which is caused by the twist plot storyt hat becomes very interesting at the end of the story.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported the US throws away more than 11 million tons of clothing every year. That is why some small businesses spotting the problem are beginning to recycle in ways they haven’t before.Create Good Company is a clothing company that tries to produce sustainable clothing and repurpose older clothing into updated fashionable items. Maggie Hendricks, the owner of Create Good Company, said, “If you can improve what you find, why wouldn’t you do that instead of buying new things? It’s a big issue not to create new waste. I would say we are 90% recycled materials.”According to the EPA, the average consumer(消费者)throws away 81.5 pounds of clothes every year. “Anywhere between 10%-17% of the waste that’s going into landfills(废弃物填埋场)is made up of things like textiles and clothing,” said Danny Katz with the CoPIRG Foundation. “A lot of the clothing that we’re producing doesn’t even get worn, so it’s going right to the landfill or even being burned and contributing to pollution that way. It’s really worrying.”This is why businesses like Create Good Company exist —to use outdated clothing and turn it into dresses or jackets. “There’s just so much waste and so many big companies that might not think about it,” Hendricks said. “Just standing with other like-minded people who are interested in sustainability is important.”Another important element Hendricks has focused on is creating these items and selling them at an affordable price. “Sustainability sometimes is green washed in companies and they make things more expensive,” Hendricks said. “That’s not how we become a sustainable world. I think making products affordable is important to me. I want to buy things that are better for the environment without throwing my pocketbook in the fire.”11.What makes Danny Katz worried?A.The use of old clothing. B.The cost of textile pollution. C.The effect of clothing waste. D.The future of the textile industry.12.What does Hendricks care more about when it comes to a sustainable product? A.Its price. B.Its sales.C.Its producer. D.Its quality.13.What is the best title for the text?A.The EPA’s measures to reduce textile waste.B.Consumers being aware of the seriousness of textile waste.C.Textile businesses’ social responsibility and their waste.D.Small businesses working to prevent textile waste.二、七选五MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear? 14 . It's similar to the music you listen to, but it's not exactly the same. That's because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called "elevator (电梯) music" because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name "Muzak". About one-third of the people in America listen to "Muzak" every day. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 15 .If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 16 .Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak doeswhat it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 17 . Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.18 . They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But otherpeople enjoy hearing Muzak in public places.

山西广陵高一下学期期末考试英语试题(考试时间120分钟,满分150分)一.阅读理解(共两节,满分60分,每小题3分)第一节(共15小题,满分45分)AI’m a real book lover. Every time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wherever I go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about people, journals and news—I read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if we don’t like or understand them.Why is reading such an enjoyable pastime for me? I probably first learned about it from my parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me picture books. The greatest gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh? Is that for school work?” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally forget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as exciting as watching a movie.Reading is also necessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!1. Among the gifts my parents have given me, which is the most valuable one?A. A love for reading.B. Picture books.C. Good health.D. A lovable pastime.2. In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____.A. make his parents happyB. finish his school workC. improve writing and broaden knowledgeD. help him understand some movies3. If we don’t use our imagination often, ____.A. it is bad for our healthB. we will soon learn how to writeC. it will help us to have a good restD. it will soon disappear4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Why do I have few friends?B. What are my life habits?C. Why do I love reading?D. Why do things happen for the best?BOne day a student went to see his teacher. He had been given an important position and now was coming to say goodbye to his teacher. The old man asked him how he would live among high officials. The student answered, “ I will be all right. I have prepared a hundred high hats, one for each official I will meet. I am sure I will succeed.”The teacher got angry on hearing this. “What?” he cried. “Is this what ten years of my teaching has made of you? Nothing but flatterer(拍马屁的人)?”“Excuse me, honored(尊敬的) master,” the student rose to his feet and apologized hurriedly. “But you have always been absorbed in your studies and don’t know how vulgar(庸俗的) the world has come to be. There are few men in the world who are above flatterers like you.”“There is something true in what you said,” the teacher nodded, smiling with one of the student’s “high hats” on.5. The student came to say goodbye to his teacher because_____________.A. he had got hundred hats to sellB. he had got a fairly high position in societyC. he wanted to see his parents in his home townD. he moved away to another city6. The student would live among high officials by___________.A. selling hats to themB. making a hundred hats for themC. flattering themD. serving them7. The phrase “rose to his feet” means________.A. stood upB. kicked with his feetC. became quite excitedD. raised his feet8. The teacher____________.A. liked to be flattered as wellB. really knew nothing about the vulgar world C . was in need of a high hat D. was satisfied with the new hatCGood health is the most valuable thing a person can have, but one cannot take good health for granted. It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food ,get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.Proper nutrition (营养) is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of “fuel”(燃料).Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein (蛋白质) ,like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins (维他命) and minerals. However, don't overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don't get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little a amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality (人的个性).Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span (寿命).Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shapes: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.If everybody, were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.9.In order to keep good health, ___________ .A. we should eat a lot of sweetsB. one needs a large amount of fatC. people should eat according to the foods nutritionD. we must try to sleep now and then10. Eating more and sleeping less________.A. can keep healthyB. is no good for youC. gets you more energyD. will keep your personality11.The title of the article should be___________ .A. Eating and ExercisingB. How Vitamins Work in Man's BodyC. Staying HealthyD. Sleeping WellDThe fact that blind people can see things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us understand our feeling about color. If they sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color without knowing it.Salesmen have discovered by experience over a long period of time that sugar sells badly in green wrappings(包装), that blue foods are considered not agreeable to the taste, and that cosmetics(化妆品) should never be packed in brown. Their discoveries have grown into a whole subject of color psychology(心理学)。

高一下学期期末考试英语试题(考试时间120分钟,满分150分)一.阅读理解(共两节,满分60分,每小题3分)第一节(共15小题,满分45分)AI’m a real book lover. Every time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wherever I go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about people, journals and news—I read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if we don’t like or understand them.Why is reading such an enjoyable pastime for me? I probably first learned about it from my parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me picture books. The greatest gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh? Is that for school work?” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally forget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as exciting as watching a movie.Reading is also necessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!1. Among the gifts my parents have given me, which is the most valuable one?A. A love for reading.B. Picture books.C. Good health.D. A lovable pastime.2. In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____.A. make his parents happyB. finish his school workC. improve writing and broaden knowledgeD. help him understand some movies3. If we don’t use our imagination often, ____.A. it is bad for our healthB. we will soon learn how to writeC. it will help us to have a good restD. it will soon disappear4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Why do I have few friends?B. What are my life habits?C. Why do I love reading?D. Why do things happen for the best?BOne day a student went to see his teacher. He had been given an important position and now was coming to say goodbye to his teacher. The old man asked him how he would live among high officials. The student answered, “ I will be all right. I have prepared a hundred high hats, one for each official I will meet. I am sure I will succeed.”The teacher got angry on hearing this. “What?” he cried. “Is this what ten years of my teaching has made of you? Nothing but flatterer(拍马屁的人)?”“Excuse me, honored(尊敬的) master,” the student rose to his feet and apologized hurriedly. “But you have always been absorbed in your studies and don’t know how vulgar(庸俗的) the world has come to be. There are few men in the world who are above flatterers like you.”“There is something true in what you said,” the teacher nodded, smiling with one of the student’s “high hats” on.5. The student came to say goodbye to his teacher because_____________.A. he had got hundred hats to sellB. he had got a fairly high position in societyC. he wanted to see his parents in his home townD. he moved away to another city6. The student would live among high officials by___________.A. selling hats to themB. making a hundred hats for themC. flattering themD. serving them7. The phrase “rose to his feet” means________.A. stood upB. kicked with his feetC. became quite excitedD. raised his feet8. The teacher____________.A. liked to be flattered as wellB. really knew nothing about the vulgar world C . was in need of a high hat D. was satisfied with the new hatCGood health is the most valuable thing a person can have, but one cannot take good health for granted. It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food ,get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.Proper nutrition (营养) is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of “fuel”(燃料).Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein (蛋白质) ,like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins (维他命) and minerals. However, don't overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don't get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little a amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality (人的个性).Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span (寿命).Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shapes: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too. If everybody, were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.9.In order to keep good health, ___________ .A. we should eat a lot of sweetsB. one needs a large amount of fatC. people should eat according to the foods nutritionD. we must try to sleep now and then10. Eating more and sleeping less________.A. can keep healthyB. is no good for youC. gets you more energyD. will keep your personality11.The title of the article should be___________ .A. Eating and ExercisingB. How Vitamins Work in Man's BodyC. Staying HealthyD. Sleeping WellDThe fact that blind people can see things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us understand our feeling about color. If they sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color without knowing it.Salesmen have discovered by experience over a long period of time that sugar sells badly in green wrappings(包装), that blue foods are considered not agreeable to the taste, and that cosmetics(化妆品) should never be packed in brown. Their discoveries have grown into a whole subject of color psychology(心理学)。
