针对这个问题,你班同学组织了一场辩论会,请你根据下表内容,以“Should people stop smoking in public places?”为题,写一篇短文,客观介绍双方的不同观点, 并表达你自己的观点。

注意:1、词数:100左右;2、题目已给出,不计入总词数。

Should people stop smoking in public places?【答案】参考范文:Should people stop smoking in public places?Our class had a heated debate whose topic was about whether people should stop smoking in public places. Opinions vary on this topic.Some students agree that smoking is dangerous. Not only does smoking harm smokers themselves but also harm the people around them. Stopping smoking in public places would also urge smokers to smoke less or give it up.However, others hold an opposite view. They believe that it’s legal to smoke and smokers should have the freedom and right to smoke in any place they like. Besides, stopping smoking in public places would drive many bars, pubs or clubs out of business. What’s worse, many people will be out of job because of this.As far as I am concerned, stopping smoking in public places is really necessary for the benefit of both smokers and non-smokers.甘肃省兰州市第二十七中学2020-2021学年高一上学期期末考试英语试卷第三节书面表达(满分25分)假如你是高一学生李华,你想与一名叫王林的灾区同学成为朋友,并在学习上给予他一定的帮助,请给他写一封信,信的内容包括:1. 你个人的基本情况(年龄,爱好,特长,理想);2. 向他介绍你的学习经验(至少两条);3. 欢迎他到学校学习参观。

The poor man always sat there, looking at the big hotel in which the rich man lived. One day, the rich man got out of his car and said to the poor man, "Excuse me. I want to know why you sit here and look at my hotel every morning." " Sir," said the poor man, " I am a failure. I have no money , no family, no home. I sleep on this bench, and every night I dream that one day I'll sleep in that hotel." The rich man said , " Tonight your dream will come true. I'll pay for the best room in that hotel for you a whole month."A few days after, the rich man went into the poor man's room to ask him how he was enjoying himself. To his surprise, he found that the man had moved out of the hotel back to his bench. When the rich man asked why, he said, " You see, when I'm sleeping on my bench, I dreamed I am there, in the big hotel. It's a wonderful dream. But when I was there, I dreamed I was back to this cold bench. It was a terrible dream, and I couldn't get any sleep at all."5.The poor man lived in ______ before he met the rich man.A. the hotelB. his homeC. the parkD. the car6.Every morning, the poor man sat on the bench and ______ .A. waited for the rich manB. looked at the rich man's hotelC. looked at the rich man's carD. enjoyed the clean car7.Every night the poor man dreamed of ______ .A. sleeping in a hotelB. becoming richC. owning that hotelD. being the rich man's friend8.The poor man moved out of the hotel because ______ .A. he didn't want to live in such a fine roomB. he didn't like the rich manC. he couldn't pay for the roomD. he couldn't get any sleep at all thereCWhen my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words.By Jack9.Jack brought the couple their food very fast because _______.A. the manager asked him to do soB. he respected the elderlyC. the couple wanted him to do soD. he wanted more pay10.When Jack called the couple “elderly”, they became _______.A. nervousB. satisfiedC. unhappyD. excited11.After this experience, Jack _______.A. lost his job in the restaurantB. made friends with the coupleC. no longer respected the elderlyD. changed his way with older people12.Which of the following is TRUE?A. From this experience, Jack learned more about American culture.B. Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.C. The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.D. The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got.DHow can we improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They'll say, "This is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it."Certainly not! You don't have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasn't.Remember that you get what you pay. You just don't sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don't expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don't just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively, you also have to act positively.If someone's life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.13.The writer's attitude towards destiny is that___.A. we can change itB. we can't depend on ourselvesC. we must accept itD. we have to suffer it14.According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong?A. Regard it as a little failure.B. Get your hands off your phone.C. Sit around and wait for luck.D. Do something to solve the problem.15.The underlined word "positively" in the passage means___.A.不礼貌地B.消极地C.积极地D.礼貌地第二节(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。

总分120分,考试时间100分钟。

第一卷第一部分阅读理解(共20小题;,每小题2分,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AThink of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.Don’t let other people set goal for y ou. Only you know what is best for yourself.Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; the best way to keep love is to give it wings(翅膀).Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure you can always carry easily.Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.1. The passage tells us not to _________ because everyone is special.A. be afraid of difficultiesB. be afraid to learnC. run through life so fastD. compare yourself with others to look downon your worth2. The sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.” means that _______.A. Nothing is possibleB. If we don’t give up, there is always hopeC. You should learn to give upD. Although you try, nothing will change.3.Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________A. Because time is too expensive.B. Because time never returns.C. Because we are too poor.D. Because times will get back.4. If you run through life so fast, you will ____________.A. lose your own treasure that you can always carry easilyB. lose love by holding it too tightlyC. forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.D. not afraid of the difficultiesB“Come on! All of us are cutting math. Who wants to take that quiz? We’re going to take a walk and get lunch instead. Let’s go!” says the coolest kid in your class. Do you do what you know is right and go to math class, take the quiz? Or do you give in and go with them?People who are at your age, like your classmates, are called peers(同龄人). When they try to influence you how to act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure(压力). It’s something everyone has to deal with—even adults.Peers influence yo ur life, even if you don’t realize it, just by spending time with you. You learn from them, and they learn from you. It’s only human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group.Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Or you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone is reading it. Sometimes peers influence each other in negative(消极的) ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them.It’s difficult to say “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.It can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who is willing to say “no” too. If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust, a parent, or a teacher. They can help you feel much better and prepare you for the next time you face peer pressure.5. With his words in the first paragraph, the kid is ________.A. planning some interesting activities after schoolB. talking about a dinner partyC. asking other kids to take a quiz with himD. encouraging other kids to cut a class6. According to the author, _________.A. peer pressure does kids more harm than goodB. math is the most difficult subject for most kidsC. kids today are under greater pressure than beforeD. peer pressure exists among people of all age groups7. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Peer pressure.B. Your time.C. Your life.D. Human nature.8. It’s suggested in the last paragraph that the readers _______.A. make more close friends while at schoolB. learn to refuse their friends in a polite wayC. get support from someone else if it’s necessaryD. build closer relations with their parents and teachersCAs a student, you must be excited to know something about American school students. In fact, just like in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two periods, the first two or three years are called “junior high school” and the other is “senior high school”.In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free education(which will be started when they are about 6 years old) until they are 18 years old. As a result of the free education system, American children have little difficulty in going to senior high school.American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside of the classroom. The activities are organized by the school, such as joining a music group or a sports team. Certainly, just like us students in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good university. They take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school period. And students with low marks at the end of a school year are still allowed to go on to the next grade.In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behaviors. So children who want to go to university are often sent to suburban (郊区的) high schools, where most students want to go to university and the atmosphere (氛围) is quite different.9. This passage mainly tells us about ________.A. education of Chinese middle schoolB. education of American high schoolC. American free educationD. how to get into universities in America10.

The writer of the passage tells us the truth that ________.A .the atmosphere in high schools is not goodB. none of the schools in cities are good for learningC. suburban high schools are good places for learningD. all the American students want to go to universityDAt the age of seven I started taking violin lessons. I practiced half an hour every day, went to lessons once a week, and occasionally played in a group concert. Like most kids, I always thought practicing was boring. If my parents hadn’t been thereto make me practice, I probably would have put down my violin and never have picked it up again.I met Moira when I was 11 at an Irish music party. Moira hosted the party that night, playing the violin, singing and dancing. She made sure that everyone in the room got involved and had a great time. I immediately fell in love with the music she played and the energy that she brought to it. Just a few days after that party, I took my first lesson with Moira, and I continued taking lessons with Moira throughout middle school.When I started playing the violin with Moira, playing music became something that I loved. She introduced me to so many types of music, from Irish to Old Time, to Cajun. Moira also taught me to play the guitar. Soon we started performing together and were shocked to discover that people actually wanted to hear us! When I began to play the violin, practicing was something that I did at home in my living room, but with Moira’s influence it quickly became something that I did everywhere. I played on street corners, at festivals, at the beach, at parties, at weddings, and late at nig ht in my friends’ kitchens.Moira took the music out to the classroom and brought it to life. Her passion(激情)was not only for playing music, but also for sharing it. My time with Moira allowed me to grow both musically and personally. I have met so many special people and had so many invaluable(无价的) experiences. Moira has proven to be the most important influence in my musical development, and also my invaluable friend.12. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. The writer had her violin lessons every day.B. The writer disliked the kids who hated the violin.C.

Moira didn’t like to play music in the class room.B. Moira helped the writer a lot with her personal life.C. Moira had great influence on the writer’s lifeD. Moira was very thankful for the writer’s support.15. What would be the best title for the passage?A. My Way to Success.B. My Invaluable Friend.C. My Middle School Life.D. How I learned the Violin.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,共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。

One day his wife was ill and he had no money. He had to sell some cabbages(甘蓝菜) and carrots(胡萝卜) in the market. The next morning he took two baskets of vegetables to town. But it was raining hard that afternoon and there were few people in the street. When his vegetables were sold out, it was dark. He bought some medicine and hurried to his village.On his way home he saw a person lying on the snow. He placed his baskets on the ground and was going to help the person to get up. At that time he found it was a dead man and there was much blood on his body. He was so afraid that he ran away quickly, without taking the baskets with him.The next afternoon the farmer was sent to the police station. Having shown the baskets, an officer asked: “Are these yours?” “Yes, sir.” the farmer answered timidly(胆怯地). ”Have you killed the man?” “No, no, sir.” the farmer said in a hurry.” When did you see the dead man?” ”About seven last evening.” “Did you see who killed the man?” “No, Sir.” The officer brought out a knife and asked,“Have you seen it yet?” ”No, Sir.’ The officer became angry and told the policemen to beat him up (殴打他)and send him into prison.That evening the officer went on trying(审判) .Pointing to the knife, he asked again,” Have you seen it yet?” ”Yes, Sir.” The officer was happy and asked,” When and where?” “I saw it here this afternoon, sir.”4.The farmer decided to sell the vegetables to_____.A.buy some food for his familyB.buy some medicine for his wifeC.go to see a doctorD.go to the cinema5.The farmer did n’t sell out his vegetables until the evening because_____.A.they were too badB.they were very expensiveC.it rained hard that morningD.few people liked to go out on such a bad day6.The farmer ran away quickly because_____.A.the policemen were coming towards him.B.his wife was waiting for him at homeC.he was afraid to see a dead man.D.it was so late that he couldn’t stay there any longer.7.The officer tried the farmer to_____.A.know who had killed the man.B.know if he had seen the dead manC.ask when he saw the dead manD. .ask if he had seen the knifeCI suffered from mental(心理的) illness and depression(抑郁) when I was younger, and it totally affected my teenage years. But after a long struggle, I found a hobby that changed my life.My depression really kicked in(开始) after my parents moved to the UK when I was about 11 years old. Having to get used to life in a foreign country was very difficult. The friends I knew were gone, and the changes in my environment led to my depression. I had problems in many parts of my life, which made it feel impossible for me to carry on(继续).At that time, I didn’t understand that depression was an illness. I remember a particular(特别的)day when I couldn’t find enough strength to get myself home from playing in the park—it felt like I was carrying the world on my shoulders(肩膀).Other times, I even thought about killing myself —I just felt so trapped(陷入困境的). I never really reached out for help(向别人求助) either, as I felt that there wasn’t anyone who could have helped with my situation.What turned my life around(使我的生活好转), however, was discovering street dancing. I was introduced to it by a friend, and I started taking classes at a studio (工作室) in London. After a few weeks, I began to go out and meet a lot of other dancers to practice and train with them on a regular basis(定期地). It gave me a purpose, and eventually the happiness I gained from it helped me manage my depression. The dancing helped me get my life back, focus on my studies, and get through university.My advice to anyone who might be going through something like I was is to reach out for help. The thing about life is that it changes, and you never know what might come on your way. If someone had said to me during those dark moments that I would have gone on to achieve the things I have, I wouldn’t have ever believed it.Just take each day as it comes, and remember that there’s always someone, or something, out there to help you.8.How did the author deal with his depression at first?A.He turned to his old friends for help.B.He talked about it with his parents.C.He put up with it by himself.D.He read many articles about it.9.How did street dancing benefit the author?A.It helped him find a good job.B.It taught him how to control his emotions perfectly.C.It let him find many true friends.D.It cheered him up and made him feel positive10.What does the author suggest people do when they feel down?A.Always be confident in themselves.B.Find someone or something to rescue them.C.Wait for help to come patiently.D.Accept everything that life sends their way,11.How might the author feel about his future?A.Hopeful.B.Fearful.C.Satisfied.D.Uncertain.DMany people believe that you lose the ability to learn new languages as you get older. Language experts(专家),however,will tell you that you’re never too old to learn a new language. As you get older, it can be more difficult to learn a new language,though.Children and adults learn new languages in different ways. For children, language is their life. They study for thousands of hours every year. Because they need to learn language to became part of their communities(社会).Adults,on the other hand,are already part of a language community. Learning a new language means becoming part of another language community,and adults rarely(很少) get the chance to practice as much as young children do.Moreover.children leaning a new language are expected to make mistakes. This gives them freedom when learning to be daring(勇敢的) and confident Adults,however,often feel pressured (有压力的)to be perfect when learning a new language.This can discourage many people and make it even harder to learn a new language.When young children learn a new language,they come to see various languages as a “normal” part of society.This mind set(思维模式) helps them embrace(接受)learning a new language without feeling like they're doing something unusual or“too hard”.So if you want to learn a new language,go for it! It’s never too late to learn a new language. If you're older,it may take more work,but it can be done.If you'rea young child,though,now is the time to step out and learn a new language!12.By “Language is their life”,the author means that children .A.can't live without languageB.lead a happy life every dayC.practice a new language a lotD.are taken good care of adults13.What may make it hard for the old people to learn a new language!A.They are afraid of being laughed at.B.They usually have too many interests.C.They think making mistakes is natural.D.They always make all kinds of mistakes.14.Which of the following shows the difference between children and adults in learning new language?A.The behaviors they have.B.The learning attitudes.C.The future plans they have made.D.The materials they are using.15.According to the author,a new language .A.can never be learned by the old peopleB.can be grasped by the people easilyC.can be understood only by the old peopleD.can learned by both the old and the young第二节: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。

These four human capabilities can be found in most of our daily activities, at personal, social and business level. Having a tool can definitely improve our capabilities.As any tool we invented, it robs us of something: While AI has increased human strength and required fewer resources, it reduces the need for a single person to be “strong”! We have plenty of examples of complains from the past towards the appearance of new tools.Plato, the great Greek philosopher, once reported in his dialogues of concerns raised by the use of writing, a tool that would have robbed people from their capabilities to memorize, since memories could be shifted to writings on parchment (羊皮纸). Therefore, in a way, there is nothing really new in our reaction to this new tool.The opportunities offered, however are huge, and as for previous invented tools, the time will soon come when we will no longer have an option to use or not use AI.The IBM Global AI Adoption Report based on 2022 data point s out that only 1 company in 5 is not using or planning to use AI. According to McKinsey and Gartner, the two most well-known consulting (咨询) companies, most medium and large companies are already using AI and by the end of this decade all will be using it as an integral part of their activity support. In other words, by the end of this decade, there will be two kind of companies, those using AI and those that are out of business.8.According to the author, what has AI done for us?A. Rob us of some resources.B. Reduce personal strengths.C. Improve our capabilities.D. Make decisions for humans.9.Why is Plato mentioned in the passage?A.

Mckinsey and Gartner are already using AI.C. Most companies are using or planing to use AI.D. There will be two kinds of companies in ten years.11.Which one is a suitable title for this text?A. Why Should We Use AI?B. Where Is AI Leading Us?C. What Should We Do with AI?D. To Use or Not to use AI, It’s a Question.On the side of the road in the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve in northwest China's Qinghai Province, you might see a chubby wolf wagging its tail, rolling on the ground in front of the passing cars in hopes of getting a meal. However, it was skin and bones a few months ago. It is said that the old starving wolf was kicked out of the wolf pack because of its poor hunting ability. But that all changed after a passing driver gave it two pies and posted a video of it online in July, which has made the wolf popular, with people rushing to the area to provide it with food.Since then, the wolf has given up its hunting instinct(本能) and turned to passers-by for snacks that are high in oil, sugar and salt, such as pies, roasted chicken and sausages. Subsequently, more wolves have joined this behavior. The wolfs change has led many netizens to find humor as they are actually acting like pet dogs. However, the change means that it is losing its ability to survive in nature, which is extremely dangerous to wild animals.“Wolves are part of the food web in the ecosystem, and as people continue to feed them, their habits will change, which will disrupt their role in the ecosystem and affect the stability of the ecosystem,” said Qi Xinzhang, deputy head of the Xining Wildlife Park in the province.Although wolves sit near the top of the food web, their kill rate is only 14 percent. They don't eat every day. Instead, they live a life of feast or famine, and hunger is their norm.So far, some parts of the country have enacted laws and regulations prohibiting the feeding of wild animals. Shanghai municipal government implemented regulations on October 1 this year, prohibiting the feeding of wild animals. On October 16, a newly revised wildlife protection law in southwest China's Sichuan Province made it clear that feeding anddriving away wild animals are prohibited while observing and photographing them. 12.Why was the wolf kicked out of the wolf pack?A. His old age.B. His skinny body.C. His poor hunting ability.D. His popularity on the Internet.13.Why shouldn't tourists feed wild animals?A. Because wild animal may attack humans.B. Because wild animals don't like the food.C. Because wild animals don't have to eat everyday.D. Because feeding wild animals will affect the ecosystem.14.What do we know about wolves from this passage?A. They live like dogs.B. They can always find something to eat.C. They are at the bottom of food chain.D. They don’t often succeed in hunting. 15.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. People are taking actions to protect wild animals.B. People shouldn't observe and photograph wild animals.C. Laws are newly introduced to protect wild animals recently.D. People can feed wild animals outside Shanghai and Sichuan.二、七选五16.We watch our salt and fat intake to protect our hearts. We exercise and take calcium to protect our bones.

高一英语上学期期末考试试题本试卷满分150分,考试时间120分钟。

第一题:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)ASicily, an island of Italy, is home to beautiful beaches, outstanding food, and a bit of Italian history on every corner. It’s located just southwest of the Italian mainland and it’s the largest Mediterranean island. Controlled by many armies over the centuries, it became the site of Roman and Greek colonies(殖民地). Those cultures remain to this day.As part of the year of Italy in China, an exhibition of Sicilian culture is being held at the National Museum of China from April 29 to June 27. Although they have a rich culture and history, Sicilian people lead a simple life. Living on land with fertile (肥沃的) soil, most of them work in agriculture, fishing and of course tourism. In Sicily, most stores and businesses are closed from one to four in the afternoon. Street become crowded around five as people start to go out and engage in a variety of activities. They may take a walk to the shops, enjoy a pastry (糕点)or just meet up with friends.Food is one of the great pleasures of Sicilian people. There is an old Sicilian saying: “With a contented stomach, your heart is forgiving. With an empty stomach you forgive nothing.”People will go miles out their way to eat fresh seafood, such as tuna(金枪鱼), swordfish(箭鱼) and sardines(沙丁鱼).Pasta (意大利面)is the main food. Each region has its seasonal pasta dishes, and every family cook their own specialty. Bread is common too. As another Sicilian saying goes, “A table without bread is like a day without sunshine.” In Sicily, bread is always freshly baked or bought, and usually twice a day.1. What can be learned from the passage?A. Sicily is the only island in Italy.B. It is easy to do shopping in the afternoon.C. Sicily was controlled by several countries.D. Sicilian people seldom take part in activities.2. The local people work in several fields EXCEPT .A. fishingB. miningC. tourismD. agriculture3. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph is used to show .A. bread is a must for SiciliansB. food is a great pleasure for themC. bread should be cooked every dayD. Sicilians have nothing to eat but bread4. The best title of this passage might be______.A.Italian people B.Italian cultureC.A Sicilian exhibition D.Sicily—an Island of ItalyBI was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenager girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads. Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something, “I’m awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost(路灯柱). This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop. It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.5. The girl refused to ask for help because she thought_________.A. she might be recognizedB. asking for help looked sillyC. she was normal and independentD. being found blind was embarrassing(尴尬的)6. After the girl got off the bus that evening, she_________.A. began to runB. hit a person as usualC. hit a lamppost by accidentD. was caught by something7. At the request stop that evening, the girl___________.A. stopped a big lorryB. stopped the wrong busC. made no attempt to stop the busD. was not noticed by other people8. What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?A. Other vehicles also stopped there.B. It was unreliable for making judgments.C. More lorries than buses responded to the girl.D. It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.9. Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping__________.A. to find people thereB. to find more buses thereC. to find the bus by herself thereD. to find people more helpful thereCThe National GalleryDescription:The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of Trafalgar Square in London. It houses a diverse collection of more than 2,300 examples of European art ranging from 13th-century religious paintings to more modern ones by Renoir and Van Gogh. The older collections of the gallery are reached through themain entrance while the more modern works in the East Wing are most easily reached from Trafalgar Square by a ground floor entranceLayout:The modern Sainsbury Wing on the western side of the building houses 13th- to 15th-century paintings, and artists include Duccio, Uccello, Van Eyck, Lippi, Mantegna, Botticelli and Memling.The main West Wing houses 16th-century paintings, and artists include Leonardo da Vinci, Cranach, Michelangelo, Raphael, Bruegel, Bronzino, Titan and Veronese. The North Wing houses 17th-century paintings, and artists include Caravaggio, Rubens, Poussin, Van Dyck, Velazquez, Claude and Vermeer.The East Wing houses 18th- to early 20th-century paintings, and artists include Canaletto, Goya, Turner, Constable, Renoir and Van Gogh.Opening Hours:The Gallery is open every day from 10am to 6pm (Fridays 10am to 9pm) and is free, but charges apply to some special exhibitions.Getting There:Nearest underground stations: Charing Cross (2-minute walk), Leicester Square (3-minute walk), Embankment (7-minute walk), and Piccadilly Circus (8-minute walk).10. In which century’s collection can you see religious paintings?A. The 13th.B. The 17th.C. The 18th.D. The 20th.11. Where are Leonardo da Vinci’s works shown?A. In the East Wing.B. In the main West Wing.C. In the Sainsbury Wing.D. In the North Wing.12. Which underground station is closest to the National Gallery?A. Piccadilly Circus.B. Leicester Square.C. Embankment.D. Charing Cross.DMusic is particularly popular in the medical profession, especially among surgeons (外科医生). A recent survey shows that 90% of surgeons in the UK put music on thesound system in the theatre during operations. Plastic surgeons(整形外科医生)play the most music; it appears that ear, nose, and throat specialists the least. But it isn’t only in surgeries(外科手术) where music is popular. In another recent survey, one-third of the 1,613 people said they listen to music while working. And 79% of them said that humming(哼歌)along improves their job satisfaction or productivity.Is listening to music at work a good idea? Yes, say the experts. Many surgeons say that music helps t o create a “calm atmosphere”, and a third of them added that it avoids getting bored! Also, listening to music raises the levels of a brain chemical that can help people focus. Office workers say it improves job satisfaction. Several studies suggest that i t’s also good for hospital patients. Those listening to music through headphones during surgery require less anesthetic(麻醉剂), up to 50% less in some cases, and recover more quickly afterwards. “Sure, music reduces anxiety before surgery,” says Zeev Kain, a n anesthetist at Yale University.So, what type of music should we be listening to? Surgeons from the previous survey preferred rock, pop music and classical. And hip-hop is popular too. However, whatever the kind, it appears that self-selected music is the best choice. Pennsylvania State University research showed that when people chose their own music there was more stress reduction(下降). And other researchers found that when listening to self-selected music, surgeons did the maths faster and more accurately (精确)than when they were listening to music chosen for them.13.The underlined word “theatre”in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.A. a waiting room in a hospitalB. a rest room for surgeonsC. an operating roomD. a building where shows are performed14.The surveys mentioned in the passage show ________.A. music is popular in some professionsB. most surgeons in the UK are fond of singingC. office workers learn a lot from listening to musicD. fewer than half of the people listen to music at work1.What are the advantages of listening to music at work? ________.①improving memory②keeping people relaxed③improving job satisfaction④improving eyesightA. ①④B. ①②C. ②④D. ②③第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

He goes out by himself and picks up plastic bottles, plastic bags and pieces of paper everywhere. He does it all carefully and never complains.The children in the nearby school are probably responsible for some of that litter (废弃物). “There will come a time when they know better,” he said. “It’s just not yet. So, I’ll do it for them.”Well, th is morning I was out walking my neighbor’s dog when I saw another neighbor, a much younger man, out doing the same thing! He had his two little sons with him and they were having good fun trying to pick up the litter.“What a good job you are doing!” I said to him. “Well, an older fellow in our street does this. And my friend and I thought it wasn’t fair that he had to do it all the time, so now we take turns.” He said.Not only was he taking a turn, not only did he have a friend join in as well, but he was passing on the lesson to the next generation(一代人)!By the time I had returned the dog to my neighbor, I looked again and his children’s friends had joined in!This man was teaching a whole group of young children to keep their own street tidy.

The English language is the main language spoken throughout England, although there are many different accents. It can be difficult to know how to spell or to pronounce some English words, because the language has been influenced by Latin and Greek (languages used at the time of the Romans, and used in religion and education until recent times), German (the language of the Angles, Saxons and Jutes), French(the language of the Normans),Gaelic/Scots (Celtic languages) and Danish (the language of the Vikings).

英语_甘肃省某校2020-2021学年高一上学期期末考试英语试题(含答案)

甘肃省某校2020-2021学年高一上学期期末考试英语试题一、阅读选择1. 阅读理解It is 2018; e-books are loved by many people. Do you read them?An e-book is an electronic book, which can be made from common books and loaded onto an e-reader. The e-reader is a mini-device, just like a cell-phone. It has a touch pad screen and can hold a few hundred e-books. People can read e-books on it just like they do a book. So it is possible for people to read anywhere with an e-reader. This is perfect news for people who love to read books but can't carry many.Another great thing is that people can read books on it quickly and there's no need for two hands to hold the book and turn pages. Most e-readers also have a nightlight, so you can read at night and don't wake your partner with a big light on.Not all book authors agree to make their books into e-books. The creator of Harry Potter says that her books will never be e-books. However, lots of authors absolutely love the idea and feel it's the next step to keep books alive.Nowadays e-books are sold in many websites, from where you can buy and load them onto your e-reader. Those websites look just like ordinary online bookstores and have a list of best sellers and a new book section. There is also a clear price on each e-book to make sure people can buy them like buying common books.(1)According to the passage, we know ________.A an e-book can be read through an e-readerB some e-readers don't have a touch pad and a nightlightC an e-reader is a certain book for people to readD e-books will replace common books(2)Which is NOT the advantage of e-books and e-readers?A People can read e-books anywhere if carrying an e-reader.B An e-reader can hold many e-books.C It is convenient for people to read on e-readers.D E-books are popular in class now.(3)The example of Harry Potter in Paragraph 4 shows ________.A there are many e-booksB e-books are cheapC not all author love e-books D many authors love e-books(4)We can ________.A buy e-books from some websitesB download e-books from any websitesC get e-books from book authorsD buy e-books from ordinary bookstores2.Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.What to expectThe host will provide accommodation(住宿)and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host in there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your health.Where to liveHomestays are located in London mainly in Zones(区域)2, 3 and 4 of the transport system.Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is business area. Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by underground.Meals◇Continental Breakfast◇Breakfast and Dinner◇Breakfast, Packed Lunch and DinnerIt's important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal, bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by desert, fruit and coffee.FriendsIf you wish to invite a friend over to visit. You must first ask your host's permission. You have no right to receive friends in a family home as some families don't like it. Accommodation in Private HomesThis kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student. You can share the host's kitchen and bathroom and often a main living room. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much.(1)The passage is probably written for ______.A hostwilling to receive foreign studentsB foreigners hoping to build British CultureC travellers planning to visit families in LondonD English learners applying to live in En glish homes(2)Which of the following will the host provide?A Room cleaning.B Medical car.C Free transport.D Physical training.(3)What can be inferred(推断)from Paragraph 3?A Zone 4 is more crowded than Zone.B The business centre of London is in Zone1. C Hosts dislike travelling to the city centre. D Accommodation in the city centre is not provided.(4)According to the passage, what does Continental Breakfast include?A Dessert and coffee.B Fruit and vegetables.C Bread and fruit juice.D Cheese a nd cold meat.(5)Why do some people choose to live in Private Homes?A To experience a warmer family atmosphere.B To learn more about English.C To r eceive friends as they like.D To enjoy much more freedom.3.I often dreamed about Pisa when I was a boy. I read about the famous building called the Leaning Towers of Pisa(比萨斜塔). But when I read the word Pisa, I was thinking of pizza.I thought this tower must be the best place to buy pizza in the world.Many years later, I finally saw the Leaning Tower. I knew then that it was Pisa and no pizza and that the tower got its name because it really did lean to one side. Some people want to try to fix it. They are afraid that it may fall over and they don't want it to lean over the city.I don't think it a good idea to try to fix it. The tower probably will not fall down. It's 600 years old. Why should anything happen to it now? And, if you ask me, I like what it looks like. It seems to say nothing is perfect. Imperfect things may be more interesting. Why is it so famous? There are many other older, more beautiful towers in Italy but Pisa tower is the most famous.(1)The writer used to think the Tower of Pizza ______.A wasn't famousB needed fixingC had nothing to do with pizzaD was a place to buy pizza(2)One of the reasons why the tower got its name was that ______.A "Pisa" sounded like "Pizza"B it leaned to one sideC it leaned to both sidesD it didn't lean to any side(3)Which of the following is true about the Leaning Tower of Pisa?A The tower has fallen over the city of Pisa.B It's a good idea to try to fix the Leaning Tower.C Pisa Tower is the oldest tower of all in Italy.D The writer likes it because of its being imperfect.4.阅读短文,判断下列句子正误。
