We were trapped together 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. A lot! It wasn’t pretty. When spring came I found myself driving to the city at least once every few weeks. I need to hug a tall building. I wasn’t quite used to the new life so well.But there are so many wonderful things about living in the country. I first realized it would be different when I, with 12 items(物品), went through the express lane(快速结帐通道) at the local supermarket which is for people taking 5 items or less and nobody threatened my life or even gave me dirty looks. People actually smiled at me.And driving around the countryside is a relaxing experience. I have discovered clouds. I am fascinated by all sorts of lovely birds and wildlife. I’m getting into a new role and a new life and it feels good. Now, I’m at home, the city is no longer where I belong. I’m here forever.So, there is no doubt that carrots grow in the ground.28．The author and her husband moved to the countryside when ____________. A．they retired from workB．their kids were grownC．their parents were goneD．they sold their city house at a high price29．How was their first winter in the country？A．Discouraging. B．Frightening.C．Boring. D．Exhausting.30．The author shares her experience in a supermarket to show_________. A．people in the country are niceB．people in the country lead simple livesC．supermarkets in the country have a few customersD．she is cleverer than people in the country31．What is the meaning of underlined sentence “So, there is no doubt that carrots grow in theground”(the last paragraph)？A．Carrots can be gathered in the ground.B．The author is interested in agriculture.C．The author has totally got used to the life in the country.D．Carrots are very common in the country.DUS spaceman Scott Kelly said he is fighting tiredness but is back to his normal height after nearly one year in space.Kelly’s 340-day mission(任务)—spent testing the effects of long—term spaceflight ahead of a future mission to Mars, along with Russian spaceman Mikhail Kornienko—wrapped up early Wednesday when they landed in freezing Kazakhstan aboard a Soyuz spaceship.One of the effects of the spending such a long time without gravity was that Kelly’s spine(脊柱) got longer temporarily, making him grow 3.8 centimeters, only to go back to normal as he returned to Earth.His twin brother, Mark Kelly, said they were the same height again by the time they hugged in Houston early on Thursday.According to John Charles, human research program associate manager of international science at NASA(National Aeronautics and Space Administration), any height gain “probably went away very quickly because fluid(体液) gradually got more and more in the discs between the bones in the spine.”Kelly also said reports that he had grown a full 5.1 centimeters were exaggerated.“I don’t know where that came from. I did measure myself and it was an inch and a half, so maybe somebody just decided to just round up and write it as a fact,” he told reporters in his first extended media appearance since his rectum.The details are of great importance because a team of doctors is carefully researching all the differences between Kelly and his twin, who is also a spaceman but who stayed on Earth to take part in the study.The details of those ongoing studies are secret for now, as scientists will do further analysis and provide their findings for other researches before publishing them.The idea is to learn more about the harmful effects of spaceflight before NASA green lights any deeper space mission to Mars, journeys that would last a year or more.32．What made Scott Kelly grow taller after he spent 340 days in space？A．Loneliness.B．Low amount of oxygen.C．The lack of gravity.D．Harmful effects of spaceflight.33．What did Scott Kelly mean by saying “the reports…were exaggerated”(in Para. 6)A．The reports were illegal.B．The reports were total lies.C．He was annoyed about the reports.D．He did not grow that much.34．The job of Mark Kelly, Scott Kelly’s twin brother, in the study is _______. A．to comfort Scott B．to compare with ScottC．to protect Scott D．to take care of Scott35．Why are the details of the studies secret？A．The studies are harmful to spacemen.B．Scientists have not finished their jobs yet.C．NASA does not permit giving out the details.D．The studies concern the safety of human beings.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。

湖北省黄冈中学2016年春季期中联考高一英语试题考试时间：120分钟满分：150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）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AA wet father dialed 999 to ask police for a lift home—because it was raining.The man was walking along a flyover(立交桥) with his children when the heavens opened.He shamelessly phoned the emergency service and begged for a lift, threatening to complain(投诉) to police watchdogs unless they helped.Passing officers decided they would pick up the man and his children and drive them to a bus stop.A neighbourhood police officer for the area flagged up Sunday’s incident in Shoreham, West Sussex, in a message posted on Facebook.It read: “At 12.16 pm a male dialed 999 because it was raining and he wanted a lift home. Threatened to complain to the PCC when he was told no.”A Sussex Police spokesperson confirmed: “A man rang from the Shoreham flyover to say he was stuck on foot in rain on his way home on Sunday, and wanted a lift. A passing police car did give him a lift to the adjacent A283 as he had young children with him. He was then left as he was able to wait for a bus or phone for a taxi. Clearly, 999 is for public use only in emergencies.”However, the poor use of public service has been widely blamed.A Sussex police officer, who asked to remain anonymous(匿名的), said: “Obviously, this is not why people should call 999. He was lucky he was not punished for wasting police time.”Matthew Sinclair, chief executive of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, added: “It’s ridiculous that this important service was used for such a trivial issue. Taxpayers expect police to spend their time protecting the public from crime(犯罪), not act as a taxi service.”21．Why did the policemen eventually agree to give them a lift？A．They were totally wet.B．The man’s kids were young.C．They couldn’t afford the taxi fare.D．Their cell phones were out of power.22．The reason why the police officer said the man was “lucky” is that _________. A．people usually couldn’t get away with wasting police timeB．the man and his kids had been sent homeC．the man and his kids met some warm—hearted officersD．people concerned about the man and his kids23．Which word below can take the place of “trivial” in the last second paragraph？A．small. B．funny.C．strange. D．crazy.BThe first time I saw him I would never have believed he was going to change my life. 1 had my arms full of books and I was entering the classroom when I ran into something solid. It was a short boy.He looked up at me, “My, you’re tall!”Of course, the class began to laugh. Angry, I walked to my seat without a word. Before I knew, the newcomer was standing in front of Mr. McCarthy’s desk, telling him that his name was Carlos Herrera and he'd moved to Galeton from New York.“Take that seat.” Mr. McCaahy told Carols, pointing to the only empty one, at the back of the room.Carlos grinned(咧嘴笑). “But I need a couple of dictionaries.”Again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with Carlos, not at him. He had been here only l0 minutes and already he had them on his side. And before long, he and I became familiar.One day, he looked up at me seriously with his brown eyes. “I don’t understand why you are so touchy(易怒的).” My face turned red and I said sharply, “You wouldn’t understand.”He followed me. “I should, Karen,” he said. “You and I have a lot in common. You are too tall, and I’m too short.”“You seem to get along well.” I admitted. “But what about me？ No boy wants to date a girl who is taller than he is.”“The trouble with you is you’re afraid to be yourself. You’re smart. And you could be pretty. In fact, you might be more than pretty.”I felt myself turning red.“I’m getting a great idea,” said Carlos, and right then he suggested being my personal manager.I wasn’t sure. “W-e-ll—”Soon after that, he had my new life planned. I was to let my hair grow, wear a fitted sweater and neat skirt, and lift my head and say “Hi” to everyone. I was to volunteer to work on the school paper and go out for dramatics(戏剧表演).Then one day, he told me about his latest brain waves: he dug up a play which was about a six-foot model who fell in love with a short man.“You, I suppose, are the short man,”1 said.He grinned. “And you’re the model.”“No way,” I cried, “I don’t want to be funny.”Carlos gave me a pleading(恳求) look. “Karen, I’ve never asked you for a thing for myself, have I？”He hadn’t. So, I said yes.Here came the show time. Carlos as the short man and I, the model, were seated at a table. From our talk the audience could tell we were falling in love. That was nothing funny yet. Then as we stood up, the terrible difference in our size became clear. The audience burst into laughter.The play turned out to be very successful. People poured backstage to congratulate us. Mother and Dad were extremely happy and excited. “I’m proud of you, sweetheart.” mother said.Carlos threw his arms around my waist(腰). He said, “You are wonderful.” And I said, “Thank you, Carlos, my dear friend!”24．Why did Carlos say “But I need a couple of dictionaries”(in Para.5)？A．He had some new words to look up.B．He was new to this class.C．He worked pretty hard.D．He was too short to sit at the back.25．Why could Carlos be so popular？A．He was quite grateful.B．He dared to be himself.C．He did not think he was short.D．He was very generous.26．Their play was a big success because of __________.A．their classmates’ adviceB．Carlos’ ambition to become an actorC．the difference in their heightD．Carlos’ aim to make Karen more confident considered27．Before Carlos arrived. Karen had been __________ at school.A．1ively and popular B．considered quite prettyC．troubled by her height D．looked down upon by othersCLike most people born and brought up in a big city, I always believed that carrots grew m trees.But I’d always dreamed of living in the country. When my husband and I realized that our Toronto house was worth a large sum of money thanks to out-of-control housing prices, we decided to take the chance, sell and buy a piece of paradise(乐园) in a town northwest of the city.That was four years ago. I and Richard had no experience of living in the country. But at this stage of our lives, it was exciting to begin a new adventure. Besides, my parents were gone, the kids were grown and, to be honest, if I saw one more apartment building go up in my neighbourhood, the top of my head was going to explode.The first winter in our new home was a difficult one, with more snow falling than in the past 10 years. I learned the true meaning of “cabin fever(幽闭烦躁症)”—when I developed an uncontrollable thought to beat Richard over the head with a stick because I couldn’t stand the sound of the air blowing through his nose when he breathed.

湖北省黄冈中学2009年春季高一英语期中考试试题

湖北省黄冈中学2009年春季高一英语期中考试试题Chinese people think a lot about food. In fact, I think that they’re sometimes obsessed(痴迷)with it. My first 31 of this aspect of Chinese culture came at a banquet(宴会)during a trip to Beijing in 1998. I had eaten Chinese food often, but I could not have 32 how fabulous (丰盛的) a real Chinese banquet could be. The first six or seven dishes seemed to 33 the table, with plates dangerously 34 one on top of another. I thought this vast 35 of food was the total number of dishes to be served, and I started eating 36 . Everyone else just 37 a bit of each dish and then put their chopsticks down, continuing to chat. “They can’t have very big appetites (胃口),” I thought.To my surprise, more dishes 38 , plus soups, side dishes, and desserts. There was enough to feed a whole army. No 39 my fellow guests had had only a few 40 of each dish; they knew what was still to come. But I was already so 41 that I could only 42 as the banquet continued.Another aspect of “food culture”is that the Chinese seem to eat almost every part of every anima l—much to the 43 of many westerners. Stomach, ears, tongue, tail, hoof and lungs are all likely to 44 on the dinner table in front of you. The first time I saw a three-year-old kid 45 chewing a chicken’s head, I had bad dreams for weeks.These days I enjoy that sort of food myself. 46 , there are other kinds of foods that have taken longer for me to 47 . The infamous (臭名昭著的) choudoufu is a(n) 48 (The name says it all: “stinky tofu”.) Just when I got used to it, I found another 49 on a trip to Hunan: deep-fried choudoufu, a terrible black thing that looked and 50 like a burnt tennis shoe. Maybe I will get used to it, too—someday.31. A. story B. practice C. experience D. theory32. A. introduced B. explained C. imagined D. instructed33. A. fill B. destroy C. furnish D. complete34. A. decorated B. fixed C. balanced D. measured35. A. preparation B. wave C. quality D. mixture36. A. hurriedly B. secretly C. gladly D. greedily37. A. looked B. tested C. tasted D. checked38.

For fans like her, S.H.E.’s performance is perhaps the only part of the old fashioned evening to get excited about.The Taiwanese band is made up of Selina, Hebe and Ella. Their name comes from the first letter of each of th e singers’ English names.Last week S.H.E. announced they would perform in Las Vegas, the US. over Christmas and then in Guangzhou on January 15.At their Shanghai show on October 30, hundreds of parents waited outside the Hongkou Stadium. Inside, thousands of teenagers sang, cried and shouted as the band performed.“I love their music, healthy image and everything related to them. Thank God that, although my parents don’t understand why I love them so much, they still bought me a ticket for that show,” said Peng about the Shanghai performance.It is not just on the mainland that the three girls have made audiences much excited. In the past year the band has passed through Taiwan, Hong Kong and even Singapore and Malaysia.When the three high school girls entered a singing contest in Taiwan in 2000, none of them ever dreamed of being a superstar. “We had never met before, and we didn’t talk at all at the beginning,”recalled Ella.When asked about the secret of their success, she said, “Our average looks and not-so-expensive clothes keep us close to our fans. We are happy to be the girls next door, your singing sisters.”“It’s really a magical journey, from day-dreaming high school girls to singers performing on the same stage as our idols(偶像). Nothing but ma gical,” she said.51. Why was Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl, so excited?A. S.H.E. band will get the old fashioned evening exciting.B. S.H.E. will perform in Las Vegas over Christmas.C. Her parents bought her a ticket for S.H.E.’s Shanghai show.D. S.H.E. will perform on the CCTV Spring Festival Evening Party.52. What do you know about Peng Weiye?A. She stayed outside the Hongkou Stadium to listen to S.H.E.’s performance.B. She will watch the performance in Guangzhou on January 15.C. She pays close attention to everything about S.H.E.D. She was grateful that her parents understood and supported her.53. Which is TRUE about S.H.E.?A. The secret to their success is their pretty faces and lovely clothes.B. They were close friends when they entered a singing contest.C. They caused a storm of excitement in Southeast Asia.D. They have well prepared to perform with their idols.54. Which do you think is NOT the reason for S.H.E’s popularity among their fans?A.Their music and their healthy image.B.They can make audience much excited.C.Their success meets their fans’ daydream of becoming others’ idols.D.Their average looks and not-so-expensive clothes keep them close to their fans.BAntarctica (南极洲), with its seemingly endless icy beauty, is a place where one look is worth a thousand words. My own dream to see it came true last January when I joined the sixth exploration crew of the China National Marine Bureau. We spent 10 days connecting flights to reach our goal, but finally arrived at the Great Wall Station on Antarctica on the eve of Chinese New Year.There are only two seasons in Antarctica: winter and summer. You get polar (极地的) nights in winter and polar days in summer. Day is longer than night in summer, and the temperature often reaches below zero. Luckily, there are no snowstorms in summer, which makes it the best season to travel. What I imagined before starting for Antarctica was a world of ice, storms, endless cold andloneliness. When I stepped on Antarctica for the first time, however, I saw rich, energetic and beautiful scenery that was beyond anything I had imagined.We only spent 11 days at the South Pole, but every minute was spent taking pictures and losing our heart to the wonderland. Beauty enveloped us as we watched the world around us. The mountains, oceans, ice, snow, sky, earth and inhabitants all seemed to have their own stories.Rocks from Antarctica are considered valuable. Unfortunately, I didn’t bring one back. However, my heavy bags full of film are certainly worth that. It is in these pictures that the true Antarctica comes alive.55. Why is summer the best season to go to Antarctica？A. There are no snowstorms in summer.B. Night is longer than day in summer.C. The temperature often reaches below zero in summer.D. In this season, Antarctica is a world of ice, storms and loneliness.56. What was unexpected to the writer is that he saw ______.A. the Great Wall Station and many rocks thereB. the rich, energetic and beautiful sceneryC. the only two seasons there: winter and summerD. the world of mountains, oceans, ice, snow, sky, earth and inhabitants57. The writer joined the sixth exploration team to _______.A. make some studies of the weather and the animalsB. collect some information for a scientific study centreC. capture (捕获) the rich, energetic and beautiful sceneryD. study the relationship between the weather and the animals58. What is the best title for this passage？A. Antarctica, My Dream WorldB. Beautiful South PoleC. What I’ve Got in AntarcticaD. My Visit to the South PoleCEveryone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control your behaviour, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and you’re always easily upset. You’re very stubborn (固执的), but you aren’t very ambitious (有雄心的). You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up(蜷曲), you are probably a vey nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you’re often defensive. You’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You’re usually careful. You have a confident pesonality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don’t often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.59. According to the writer, you naturally show your secret and real personality .A. only in a normal nightB. only when you go to sleepC. only when you refuse to show yourself to the worldD. only when you change sleeping position60. Which sentence is used to show the personality of a person who is used to sleeping on his or her stomach?A. He or she is careful not to bother others.B. He or she doesn’t want to stick to his or her opinion.C. He or she is not likely to be outstanding in lifeD. He or she likes to bring others happiness.61. Maybe you don’t want to make friends with a person who sleeps curled up. Why?A. He or she would rather be alone than communicate with you.B. He or she is rarely ready to help you.C. He or she prefers staying at home to going out.D. He or she wouldn’t like to get help from you.62. It appears that the writer tends to think highly of the person who sleeps on one sidebecause .A. he or she is always careful in doing everythingB. he or she has a well-balanced personalityC. he or she has more strengths than weaknessesD. he or she often hates to annoy peopleDYou might think that “global warming”means nothing more than a rise in the world’s temperature. But, rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation(撤离)of an island nation — the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.During the 20th century, sea level has risen 8~12 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the country’s drinking water.Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official, reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their green house gas emissions(导致温室效应的气体排放), which are a main cause of global warming. “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years,” Laupepa told the BBC.Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries.Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable(易受影响的)to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311 000 an “endangered nation”.63. The text is mainly about .A. rapid changes in earth’s temperatureB. bad effects of global warmingC. moving of a country to a new placeD. reasons for lowland flooding64. According to scientists, the DIRECT cause of more and fiercer storms is .A. greenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nationsB. higher surface water temperatures of the seaC. continuous global warmingD. rising sea levels65. Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not .A. agree to reduce its greenhouse gas emissionsB. sign an agreement with TuvaluC. allow Tuvaluans to move to the USD. believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real66. The country whose situations is similar to that of Tuvalu is .A. AustraliaB. New ZealandC. the MaldivesD. the United StatesEMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these people are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune, there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded (报答). When I left a 20-year job in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer (自由撰稿者), I had no hopes at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a real writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself.

湖北省黄冈中学2016年春季期中联考高一英语试题考试时间：120分钟满分：150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）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AA wet father dialed 999 to ask police for a lift home—because it was raining.The man was walking along a flyover(立交桥) with his children when the heavens opened.He shamelessly phoned the emergency service and begged for a lift, threatening to complain(投诉) to police watchdogs unless they helped.Passing officers decided they would pick up the man and his children and drive them to a bus stop.A neighbourhood police officer for the area flagged up Sunday’s incident in Shoreham, West Sussex, in a message posted on Facebook.It read: “At 12.16 pm a male dialed 999 because it was raining and he wanted a lift home. Threatened to complain to the PCC when he was told no.”A Sussex Police spokesperson confirmed: “A man rang from the Shoreham flyover to say he was stuck on foot in rain on his way home on Sunday, and wanted a lift. A passing police car did give him a lift to the adjacent A283 as he had young children with him. He was then left as he was able to wait for a bus or phone for a taxi. Clearly, 999 is for public use only in emergencies.”However, the poor use of public service has been widely blamed.A Sussex police officer, who asked to remain anonymous(匿名的), said: “Obviously, this is not why people should call 999. He was lucky he was not punished for wasting police time.”Matthew Sinclair, chief executive of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, added: “It’s ridiculous that this important service was used for such a trivial issue. Taxpayers expect police to spend their time protecting the public from crime(犯罪), not act as a taxi service.”21．Why did the policemen eventually agree to give them a lift？A．They were totally wet.B．The man’s kids were young.C．They couldn’t afford the taxi fare.D．Their cell phones were out of power.22．The reason why the police officer said the man was “lucky” is that _________. A．people usually couldn’t get away with wasting police timeB．the man and his kids had been sent homeC．the man and his kids met some warm—hearted officersD．people concerned about the man and his kids23．Which word below can take the place of “trivial” in the last second paragraph？A．small. B．funny.C．strange. D．crazy.BThe first time I saw him I would never have believed he was going to change my life. 1 had my arms full of books and I was entering the classroom when I ran into something solid. It was a short boy.He looked up at me, “My, you’re tall!”Of course, the class began to laugh. Angry, I walked to my seat without a word. Before I knew, the newcomer was standing in front of Mr. McCarthy’s desk, telling him that his name was Carlos Herrera and he'd moved to Galeton from New York.“Take that seat.” Mr. McCaahy told Carols, pointing to the only empty one, at the back of the room.Carlos grinned(咧嘴笑). “But I need a couple of dictionaries.”Again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with Carlos, not at him. He had been here only l0 minutes and already he had them on his side. And before long, he and I became familiar.One day, he looked up at me seriously with his brown eyes. “I don’t understand why you are so touchy(易怒的).” My face turned red and I said sharply, “You wouldn’t understand.”He followed me. “I should, Karen,” he said. “You and I have a lot in common. You are too tall, and I’m too short.”“You seem to get along well.” I admitted. “But what about me？ No boy wants to date a girl who is taller than he is.”“The trouble with you is you’re afraid to be yourself. You’re smart. And you could be pretty. In fact, you might be more than pretty.”I felt myself turning red.“I’m getting a great idea,” said Carlos, and right then he suggested being my personal manager.I wasn’t sure. “W-e-ll—”Soon after that, he had my new life planned. I was to let my hair grow, wear a fitted sweater and neat skirt, and lift my head and say “Hi” to everyone. I was to volunteer to work on the school paper and go out for dramatics(戏剧表演).Then one day, he told me about his latest brain waves: he dug up a play which was about a six-foot model who fell in love with a short man.“You, I suppose, are the short man,”1 said.He grinned. “And you’re the model.”“No way,” I cried, “I don’t want to be funny.”Carlos gave me a pleading(恳求) look. “Karen, I’ve never asked you for a thing for myself, have I？”He hadn’t. So, I said yes.Here came the show time. Carlos as the short man and I, the model, were seated at a table. From our talk the audience could tell we were falling in love. That was nothing funny yet. Then as we stood up, the terrible difference in our size became clear. The audience burst into laughter.The play turned out to be very successful. People poured backstage to congratulate us. Mother and Dad were extremely happy and excited. “I’m proud of you, sweetheart.” mother said.Carlos threw his arms around my waist(腰). He said, “You are wonderful.” And I said, “Thank you, Carlos, my dear friend!”24．Why did Carlos say “But I need a couple of dictionaries”(in Para.5)？A．He had some new words to look up.B．He was new to this class.C．He worked pretty hard.D．He was too short to sit at the back.25．Why could Carlos be so popular？A．He was quite grateful.B．He dared to be himself.C．He did not think he was short.D．He was very generous.26．Their play was a big success because of __________.A．their classmates’ adviceB．Carlos’ ambition to become an actorC．the difference in their heightD．Carlos’ aim to make Karen more confident considered27．Before Carlos arrived. Karen had been __________ at school.A．1ively and popular B．considered quite prettyC．troubled by her height D．looked down upon by othersCLike most people born and brought up in a big city, I always believed that carrots grew m trees.But I’d always dreamed of living in the country. When my husband and I realized that our Toronto house was worth a large sum of money thanks to out-of-control housing prices, we decided to take the chance, sell and buy a piece of paradise(乐园) in a town northwest of the city.That was four years ago. I and Richard had no experience of living in the country. But at this stage of our lives, it was exciting to begin a new adventure. Besides, my parents were gone, the kids were grown and, to be honest, if I saw one more apartment building go up in my neighbourhood, the top of my head was going to explode.The first winter in our new home was a difficult one, with more snow falling than in the past 10 years. I learned the true meaning of “cabin fever(幽闭烦躁症)”—when I developed an uncontrollable thought to beat Richard over the head with a stick because I couldn’t stand the sound of the air blowing through his nose when he breathed. We were trapped together 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. A lot! It wasn’t pretty. When spring came I found myself driving to the city at least once every few weeks. I need to hug a tall building. I wasn’t quite used to the new life so well.But there are so many wonderful things about living in the country. I first realized it would be different when I, with 12 items(物品), went through the express lane(快速结帐通道) at the local supermarket which is for people taking 5 items or less and nobody threatened my life or even gave me dirty looks. People actually smiled at me.And driving around the countryside is a relaxing experience. I have discovered clouds. I am fascinated by all sorts of lovely birds and wildlife. I’m getting into a new role and a new life and it feels good. Now, I’m at home, the city is no longer where I belong. I’m here forever.So, there is no doubt that carrots grow in the ground.28．The author and her husband moved to the countryside when ____________.A．they retired from workB．their kids were grownC．their parents were goneD．they sold their city house at a high price29．How was their first winter in the country？A．Discouraging. B．Frightening.C．Boring. D．Exhausting.30．The author shares her experience in a supermarket to show_________.A．people in the country are niceB．people in the country lead simple livesC．supermarkets in the country have a few customersD．she is cleverer than people in the country31．What is the meaning of underlined sentence “So, there is no doubt that carrots grow in theground”(the last paragraph)？A．Carrots can be gathered in the ground.B．The author is interested in agriculture.C．The author has totally got used to the life in the country.D．Carrots are very common in the country.DUS spaceman Scott Kelly said he is fighting tiredness but is back to his normal height after nearly one year in space.Kelly’s 340-day mission(任务)—spent testing the effects of long—term spaceflight ahead of a future mission to Mars, along with Russian spaceman Mikhail Kornienko—wrapped up early Wednesday when they landed in freezing Kazakhstan aboard a Soyuz spaceship.One of the effects of the spending such a long time without gravity was that Kelly’s spine(脊柱) got longer temporarily, making him grow 3.8 centimeters, only to go back to normal as he returned to Earth.His twin brother, Mark Kelly, said they were the same height again by the time they hugged in Houston early on Thursday.According to John Charles, human research program associate manager of international science at NASA(National Aeronautics and Space Administration), any height gain “probably went away very quickly because fluid(体液) gradually got more and more in the discs between the bones in the spine.”Kelly also said reports that he had grown a full 5.1 centimeters were exaggerated.“I don’t know where that came from. I did measure myself and it was an inch and a half, so maybe somebody just decided to just round up and write it as a fact,” he told reporters in his first extended media appearance since his rectum.The details are of great importance because a team of doctors is carefully researching all the differences between Kelly and his twin, who is also a spaceman but who stayed on Earth to take part in the study.The details of those ongoing studies are secret for now, as scientists will do further analysis and provide their findings for other researches before publishing them.The idea is to learn more about the harmful effects of spaceflight before NASA green lights any deeper space mission to Mars, journeys that would last a year or more.32．What made Scott Kelly grow taller after he spent 340 days in space？A．Loneliness.B．Low amount of oxygen.C．The lack of gravity.D．Harmful effects of spaceflight.33．What did Scott Kelly mean by saying “the reports…were exaggerated”(in Para. 6) A．The reports were illegal.B．The reports were total lies.C．He was annoyed about the reports.D．He did not grow that much.34．The job of Mark Kelly, Scott Kelly’s twin brother, in the study is _______.A．to comfort Scott B．to compare with ScottC．to protect Scott D．to take care of Scott35．Why are the details of the studies secret？A．The studies are harmful to spacemen.B．Scientists have not finished their jobs yet.C．NASA does not permit giving out the details.D．The studies concern the safety of human beings.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。

In the evening at 8:30 p.m. he closed his shop to complete his daily routine.However, to get time for lunch was really difficult because he didn’t have anybody at that time. Therefore, it was his daily practice that whichever customer was shopping at 1:00 p.m.would be asked to oversee (看管) the shop until the shopkeeper returned from lunch.One day, a group of four thieves planned to steal from his shop while he was gone for lunch.One of the thieves went at 1:00 p.m. to be the customer that would be asked to oversee the shop.The thief, pretending to be a customer, went in at 1:00 p.m. and started buying several items.As planned, the shop-keeper asked the thief to sit on his chair for thirty minutes until he returnedfrom lunch.Then, the other three thieves quickly came and told the pretend customer to help, but something had changed within him and he kne w deeply in his heart that if he was given responsibility for the shop, he should not perform any dishonest acts during that time. His friends didnot agree. As the now honest man tr i ed to stop them, they resisted (抵抗) and a fight started. And atthe same time the shopkeeper r eturned and asked why there was a fighting. The now honest man explained the entire plan.The shopkeeper had been searching for an honest man who could take ownership of the shopand run it. The shop-keeper felt that he had found the right man.1. What is the problem for the shopkeeper?A. Nobody could prepare lunch for him every day.B.

But Ithink there is a reason for it. Homework is given so that we can remember whatever we have learnt. Regular drilling and repetition make perfect. But teachers have started to give too much homework. Anything in excess (过度) is bad. So homework should be given with the idea of giving students apractice and not to overwork them.JaneWhat’s the use of just homework without allowing children to get an insight (洞察) into the subject? It just makes them bookworms but nothing else. Homework such as writing some things 5times at home will just make them memorize things but not put them into use. I regret to say thatteachers find it easy to bundle (归拢) the children with homework rather than making them get interested to understand what they learn. The same trend continues even in college. I find that mostof the so-called high scorers are unable to answer simple things in an interview.SallyIt is OK to give homework. But it should be given less. We are spending most of our time inschool and at least we must be free in our home. If you give homework, we will be very tired and we wouldn’t be able to pay attention to extra-curricular activities, which in turn may affect our physicaland mental health. So please give less homework to us.JohnsonIt is part of our work to give students homewor k. There will be some punishments if we won’do our work. So I have to do that though I know such a teacher is not liked by students.5. Who thinks that too much homework may do harm to students’ physical and mental health?A. Sunny.B. Jane.C. Sally.D. Johnson.6. According to the last paragraph, why do teachers give students homework?A. Because they care more about students’ metal health.B.

Eating the right kind of food is very important. It can help your body grow strong to take care of what you eat.There are four main food groups altogether. The dairy group has food like milk, cheese and sour milk. The other three groups are the meat and fish group, the fruit and vegetable group, and the bread and rice group. Each meal should have at least one food from all four main groups. With all these food together, you will be given enough energy during the day.It is easy to get into bad eating habits. You may eat your breakfast in a hurry to get to school on time. Or you may not have time for a good lunch. It may seem easy to finish your supper with fishand chips all the time. But you will find yourself tired in these days and you can not think quickly.Watching what you eat will help keep your body healthy and strong. It is also good to take some exercise. It will help you eat more if you take a walk or play games in the open air. Having a good eating habit with some exercise is the key to your health.8. Which of the following is a good eating-habit?A.

The only thing you have to do is tofollow his advice.Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story.An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill.

第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分）ABAs you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Getting material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long-hours work culture to make more money to buy more things is eating up their lives, leaving them verylittle time or energy for family . Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them.Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year. One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs(郊区), leaving their two children with a nanny（保姆）. Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock, and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a farm here,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It’s taken some getting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.”Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long h ours. I’m not really a country girl, but I suppose I’m gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.”55．What do the first two paragraphs tell us?A．People seldom work long hours to make money.B．People hardly buy more things than necessary.C．People are sure everything they own is in the right place. D．People realise there is more to life than just making money. 56．When Daniel was a reporter he .A．lived in central London B．disliked his jobC．missed his children D．was well paid57．Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm . A．was easy to organise B．has improved family lifeC．was extremely expensive D．has been a total success58．The underlined word “downshifting” in the second paragraph means .A．repairing your car by yourselfB．spending money carefullyC．moving out to the countryside to live a simpler and better lifeCDDD部分中学生身体素质差解决方法湖北省黄冈中学2009年秋季高一外语期中考试试题听力录音稿及参考答案。
