Our complaints(抱怨)against Mr.Denner are listed below:July 2:Set all the alarm clocks in house-wares to go off at 5-minute intervals(间隔).July 7: Made a trail(小径) of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women’s restroom.August 4: Took a bag of M&M’s from the candy shelf and handed out to the passing children to eat.September 14:Moved a “CAUTION—WET FLOOR” sign to a carpeted area.September 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he’d invite them in if they would brin g pillows and blankets from the bedding department.September 23:When a clerk asked if they could help him ,he began crying and screamed,“Why can’t you people just leave me alone?”October 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.December 3:Darted around the store while loudly humming the “Mission Impossible” theme.December 6:In the auto d epartment, he practiced his “Madonna look” by using different sizes of funnels.December 18:Hid in a clothing rack(支架)and when people looked through, yelled “PICK ME!PICK ME!”December 21:When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fatal position and screamed “OH NO!IT’S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!”December 23:Went into a fitting room(装配车间), shut the door, waited a while, and then yelled very loudly,“Hey! There’s no toilet paper in here!”Our video surveillance(监控)cameras recorded all these. Never once did our reminding and warning work and therefore we are forced to ban him from the store.Regards,Wal-Mart1. How did the market get to know about Mr.Denner’s strange behavior?A.

By talking with Mr.Denner.2.“M&M’s” may be the brand of .A. chocolateB. clothesC. furnitureD. medicine3.From the passage, we can learn that Mr.Denner .A. once poured some water on the carpet of the marketB. managed to get some shoppers to camp together with himC. did all of these strange things due to his mental diseaseD. was once warned not to do such strange things in the market4. In which month did Mr.Denner cause most troubles?A. In July.B. In September.C. In November.D.

Before saying anything, people communicate nonverbally by making gestures. According to an investigation(调查),only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language, the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However, many gestures have different meanings, or no meaning at all, in different parts of the world.In the United States, for example, nodding your head up and down means “yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey, however, this motion can mean “no”. In Southeast Asia, nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you.”In ancient Rome, when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life, he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States, when someone puts his/her thumb up, it means “Everything is all right.” However, in Sardiniaand Greece, the gesture is insulting (侮辱)and should not be used there.In the United States, raising your clasped(握紧的) hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign that prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting, Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia, however, it is a sign of friendship.There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country, such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans stand closer to each other than English people. English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched. Now in America, touch is important. For example friends touch each other on the arm. They often put an arm around a fr iend when they say “hello” or “goodbye”.5.It is very important to know how to communicate nonverbally when you are in another country because .A. most people speak different languagesB. much of our communication is nonverbal on many occasionsC. people usually make gestures before saying anythingD. it’s easy to learn how to express oneself through gestures6.If a native in Singapore nods his head up and down when you talk to him, his motion means .A. yesB. noC. that’s all rightD. I’ve heard you7.When the Russian leader put up his clasped hands after the meeting at the White House .A. he meant Russia was the winnerB. he was insulting AmericaC. he made a show of friendship to AmericaD. he in fact meant nothing at all8.The gesture of putting one’s thumb up should not be used when you are travelling in .A. ChinaB. the United StatesC. GreeceD. Southeast Asia3.The Wizarding World(魔法世界) of Harry Potter theme park will open in Florida in 2009,and will provide attractions and rides based on places from the Harry Potter books.The novels’ author JK Rowling has already given her blessing to the project. She said,“The plans I’ve seen look unbelievably exciting, and I don’t think fans of the books or films will be disappointed.”Stuart Craig, the man in charge of the design of the park, is an Oscar-winning production designer who worked on the Harry Potter films so it should be faithful(忠实的) to JK Rowling’s vision.Stuart Craig said, “Our primary goal is to make sure this experience is an authentic extension(原著的延伸) of Harry Potter’s world as it is por trayed in the books and films.”Visitors to the park will be able to explore some of their favourite places from the book such as the village of Hogsmeade, the Forbidden Forest and, of course, Hogwarts Castle, where Harry goes to school.Although fans can look forward to a holiday in the Harry Potter theme park, many will be saddened by the fact that the best-selling series (系列)is now drawing to a close.The final instalment(分期连载的一部分) in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, will be published on 21 July, and to mark the event JK Rowling is to read extracts(摘录) from the book to a select audience at midnight on the day of publication.Rowling has announced that two characters die in the final book, but has not revealed(透露) if Harry is one of them so fans will have to wait to findout the fate of their magical hero.9. What’s the passage mainly about?A. A new book about Harry Potter.B. A theme park about Harry Potter.C. What people will see in the theme park.D. Something about Harry Potter.10. What will people see in the theme park?A. Some of the places in the book.B. Harry Potter and most of the characters.C. How film Harry Potter was made.D. The ending part of the magical story.11.What’s meaning of the underlined word “portrayed” mean in the fourth paragraph?A. Explored.B. Saddened.C. Described.D. Opened.12.What’s the novel’s author JK Rowling’s attitude to the theme park?A. Not as good as the book.B. It will be well received.C. Not satisfied with the places shown in the park.D. Saddened.4.Love, success, happiness, family and freedom—how important are these values to you? Here is one interview which explores the fundamental(基本的) questions in life.Q: Could you introduce yourself first?A: My name is Misbah,27 years old. I was born in a war-torn(战争毁掉的) area. Right now I’m a web designer.Q: What are your great memories?A: My parents used to take me to hunt birds, climb trees, and play in the fields. For me it was like a holiday, because we were going to have fun all day long. Those are my great memories.Q: Does your childhood mean a lot to you?A: Yes. As life was very hard, I used to work to help bring money in for the family. I spent my childhood working, with responsibilities beyond my age.However, it taught me to deal with problems all alone. I learnt to be independent.Q: What changes would you like to make in your life?A: If I could change something in my life, I’d change it so that my childhood could have taken place in another area. I would have loved to live with my family in freedom. Who cares whether we have much money, or whether we have a beautiful house? It doesn’t matter as long as I can live with my family and we are safe.Q: How do you get along with your parents?A: My parents supported me until I came of age. I want to give back what I’ve got. That’s our way. B ut I am working in another city. My only contact with my parents now is through the phone, but I hate using it. It filters(过滤) out your emotion and leaves your voice only.

Others get monthly pocket money.First of all, children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving. Then parents should make the children understand what is expected to pay for with the money. At first, some young children may spend all of the money soon after they receive it. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until it is the right time. 18In order to encourage their children to do some housework, some parents give pocket money if the children help around the home. Some experts think it not wise to pay the children for doing that. 19 Pocket money can give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with the money. They can spend it by giving it to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. 20 Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice(牺牲).

湖北省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(附带答案)
湖北省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(附带答案)一、阅读理解Have your ever tried podcasts(播客)? If you wish to feel happier, or just learn random things, click here. Here are some of the most exciting podcast series that can help you through your learning journey.Ten percent happierIt was created after Dan Harris, a journalist, had a panic attack on live national television. This led him to try meditation to heal. During this journey, he wrote the book 10% Happier, which talks about the stages of his development. After the book became a best-seller, Dan Harris created the podcast, inviting special guests, such as meditation teachers and scientists to talk about personal development.Delicious ways to feel betterElla Woodward is known as a writer and businesswoman who owns the blog “Deliciously Ella”. She approaches a sensitive subject about our relationship with food. This podcast can help you fix your negative food experiences with positive ones, which can result in enjoying all types of food in moderation and respecting your body’s natural hunger cues.Power hourSometimes, it’s challenging to see our true value within ourselves, which stops us from improving. If you’ve been down lately, you may want to check out this podcast. “Power Hour” was created by Adrienne Herbert, a wellness professional. She talks about motivation, trends, career paths and anything about self-improvement. Professionals are invited to discuss important matters.Routines and rutsSometimes, keeping your habits in place when life is putting you down is not that easy. “Routines and Ruts” can help you make a significant change in your life. The podcast is produced by Madeleine Dore, a writer who likes to explore how we can spend our days in a balanced way that includes both productivity and relaxation. She also has some interesting guests.1.Where is this text probably taken from?A.A travel brochure. B.A website.C.A course plan. D.A scientific report.2.Which podcast is targeted at people who are interested in diet advice? A.Power hour. B.Ten percent happier.C.Routines and ruts D.Delicious ways to feel better. 3.What do the four podcasts have in common?A.They are based on popular books.B.They often invite famous professionals.C.They are all created by experienced writers.D.They may contribute to our personal growth.“Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee.” Captain Ahab’s dying declaration of defiance (抗争) is among the most famous passages in Herman Melville’s novel.In reality, such victories of the hunted over the hunter were a fantasy in the cruel world of industrial whaling. The biggest cetacean of them all, the blue whale, had all but disappeared from the Southern Ocean by the time a ban on hunting it was introduced in 1967.Sightings of the largest mammal ever to live on the earth had been rare in the region since then. Not any more. A survey of coastal waters around the island of South Georgia in the sub-Antarctic has had remarkable results.In just over three weeks, in the krill-rich waters of what was once their main feeding ground, the movements of 55 Antarctic blues were recorded by the British Antarctic Survey. The finding was described as “truly, truly amazing” by one cetacean specialist. It suggests that when a comprehensive audit (审计), due in 2021, is carried out, there is a good chance that the species will prove to be in full recovery mode, as are humpbacks and other whales in the southern hemisphere.Three years ago, the Natural History Museum established a 25m skeleton (骨架) of a blue whale and named it Hope, intending to inspire new generations to builda sustainable future.The return of the world’s most splendid ocean travellers to southern waters should serve as an example for wider possibilities of conservation. Ecological wrongs can be righted, or at least mitigated, with sufficient will and organisations.The more general comeback of the whale - for which environmental campaigners should take a great deal of credit — can be an inspiration for victories yet to be won. It could also act as an added motivation to action on the climate emergency. 4.What’s the author’s purpose of mentioning the famous passage in Herman Melville’s novel?A.To describe a hunter’s bravery. B.To introduce the topic of the text. C.To stress the popularity of the novel.

Historians like to ask why the Industrial Revolution took place here in the 18th century and not elsewhere in Europe or Asia. Several historians argue that sugar played a significant role in fulling workers. Could it be that sweet, boiled water with a mildly addictive plant produced a healthier as well as more energetic population just when England needed labour? That appears to be the caseput forward by Francisca Antman, an economist at the University of Colorado.It is not a new thesis, but Professor Antman provides the first quantitative evidence that tea drinking powered the Industrial Revolution, by increasing the health of workers. Her study reveals that the practice of boiling water for tea lowered death rates by 25% in lower water-quality areas. This “accidental improvement”, she argues, occurred just as people were moving into cities, where the crowding together would otherwise have led to serious epidemics. Instead, the country possessed a healthy pool of labour needed for industrialisation.One of the key moments that shifted tea from a luxury good to a mass market drink came, the Antman paper argues, in 1784 when the tea tax was cut from 119% to 12.5% at one stroke. By the end of the century, even the humblest farmer drank tea twice a day. The East India Company also muscled out an opponent — coffee — by pushing its tea in the home market. Tea gardens made the drink a cultural custom, as did the worker’s tea break.Professor Antman argues, “Why England experienced a decline in death rates over this period without an increase in wages, living standards, or nutrition can be explained in part by the widespread adoption of tea as the national drink and increased consumption of boiled water”.8.What do we know about Professor Antman’s study?A.It offers statistical proof. B.It presents a new thesis.C.It focuses on work efficiency. D.It figures out labour demand. 9.What do the underlined words “accidental improvement” in paragraph 2 refer to? A.The decline of death rate. B.The removal of epidemics.C.The popularity of tea drinking. D.The process of moving to cities. 10.What can we infer from paragraph 3?A.Tea was ill-received by farmers. B.Coffee made push into British market. C.Tax cut made tea an affordable product. D.Workers enjoyed tea breaks in gardens.11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.British Tea, from Exotic to Ordinary B.A Cup of Tea, a British Cultural GeneC.Why the British Drink So Much Tea? D.How Tea Affects Industrial Revolution?One way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize its benefits. It is a mistake to think that we can make better decisions if we keep our feelings under control.Instead,a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical thinking leads to sound decision-making. There is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making.There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationships (for example,they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger approaches.In the real world though, it’s worth realizing that feeling anxious for a while is very common.It helps you communicate with others that you care about, and what’s more, it’s probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: If you’re a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagining possible plots, including bad ones.The important thing, if you are a person likely to worry, is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don’t bury your head in the sand. Instead, act on your fears - do research as well as preparation.So rather than walk blindly into what you fear, why not meet challenges in full readiness?When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem.No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview,you needn’t see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling,developed through evolution(进化).As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is a reason to cheer,too.Your nerves are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.12.What can we infer about anxiety from paragraph 1?A.It enables us to be more focused.B.It stops us from thinking logically.C.It makes us more willing to take risks.D.It contributes to bad decision-making.13.What can be learned about anxious people?A.They sense danger in advance.B.They score higher in tests.C.They prefer to interact with strangers.D.They tend to be thoughtful about future.14.How should we deal with anxiety in the author’s opinion?A.By regarding it as our enemy.B.By taking action to control it.C.By making use of it properly.D.By treating it as a minor feeling.15.What does the passage focus on?A.Effective ways to prevent anxiety.B.Unexpected benefits of anxiety.C.Tips on how to keep a good mood.D.Misunderstandings about anxiety.二、七选五Grieve Her Mum Through CookingGrief and mourning can be expressed in many ways. 16 . She found comfort through cooking her mother’s recipes in a planner and in turn, learned about her mother. Her attitude to life was mirrored in her cooking.Along with the love of food and family, her mother, and her grandmother before her, had passed down a carved wooden spoon.

D.An old legend.When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don’t worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam (横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe.A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that’s what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I’d given it up.When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I’ve traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving (穿梭) among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded (滑) up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”4.What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?A.He felt disappointed.B.He gave up his hobby.C.He liked the weather there.D.He had disagreements with his family.5.What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean?A.Be careful!B.Well done!C.No way!D.Don’t worry!6.Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London? A.To join the skateboarding.B.To make new friends.C.To learn more tricks.D.To relive his childhood days.7.What message does the author seem to convey in the text?A.Children should learn a second language.B.Sport is necessary for children’s health.C.Children need a sense of being part of a team.D.Seeing the world is a must for children.Programs using animals to calm patients and reduce tension are called animal therapy(治疗). In the United States, these treatments are popular, although there is a lack of evidence to show that they work.There are, however, many stories about animal therapy helping people. For example, some children have a fear of injections (注射). That may make getting the COVID-19 vaccine (疫苗) a difficult experience. So, some hospitals use therapy animals, like Ollie, a six-year-old therapy dog, to help children at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego.One of those children is nine-year-old Avery Smith. At the children’s hospital,she cried over her fear of the vaccine. Then Ollie came in and sat at her feet. “It helped me because I never had a COVID vaccine before,” said Avery. She added, “I didn't know what it felt like. But when I saw the dog, I stopped crying.”Kristin Gist is a 75-year-old dog therapy volunteer and a former hospital programs direct tor. She is also Ollie’s owner. She said even before the vaccine, therapy dogs were already being used at the children’s hospital. Some children at the hospital are fighting cancer or other serious diseases. Gist said kids or their parents will sometimes hold the dogs and seem to feel better.However, some experts say there is a lack of scientific evidence proving that animal their apy improves a patient’s medical condition. One such expert is Hal Herzog. He is a professor at Western Carolina University. Herzog told VOA that an animal can simply distract (分散注意力) a patient. “Some studies have shown that for short-term preventing pain, staying with a dog can put your mind on something else. And in that case, I see no harm in doing it. However, this won't do much for treatment.”8.What is animal therapy intended for at Rady Children’s Hospital? A.Helping kids overcome their fear of vaccine shots.B.Reminding nurses to give injections to children.C.Accompanying children when they feel lonely.D.Helping doctors care for sick children.9.How did Avery Smith feel after Ollie came to her side?A.Confident. B.Excited. C.Anxious. D.Calm.10.What role do therapy dogs play according to Kristin Gist?A.They can cure the kids of serious diseases.B.They can remove the pain of the young patients.C.They can provide comfort for the sick kids’ family.D.They can encourage the sick children to fight disease.11.What can we infer from Herzog’s words?A.Animal therapy can be harmful in the long run.B.Animal therapy can increase patients’ stress level.C.Animal therapy has little effect on treating patients.D.Animal therapy makes patients concentrate on the pain.If you want to take good care of your eyes and vision, I encourage you to adopt the habit of blinking (眨眼) softly as often as possible. Frequent and gentle blinking is important to maintain healthy eyes and good vision because it helps to keep your eyes coated with three beneficial layers (层) of tears.The first layer of tears lies right up against the whites of your eyes, and provides an even coat of protein-rich moisture (水分) for the second layer to stick to. The middle watery layer helps to wash away foreign dust. It also provides your eyes with minerals, a variety of proteins, and moisture. The third outer layer of tears is somewhat oily. It serves to prevent the middle watery layer from drying quickly, and smooths your eyes.If your eyes are not regularly coated with the three layers of tears described above, they will be short of moisture and cleaning, and they will be unnecessarily tired.One of the reasons why many of us don’t blink as often as we should is that we don’t see frequent blinking in mainstream media. Actors and news presenters are typically trained to blink as infrequently as possible, so when we take in most forms of media, our minds learn that it isn’t normal to blink frequently.To fully support your eyes and vision, it’s best to blink softly every two to four seconds, which translates to about fifteen to thirty blinks per minute. By making an effort to softly blink at this rate, over time, your body will turn your efforts into a habit. If you’re thinking that such frequent blinking will make reading a book or viewing a movie uncomfortable, give it a try and you’ll see right away that it doesn’t take away from these experiences at all.12.What does the author suggest in the text?A.Taking good care of our eyes by eye exercises.B.Closing and opening our eyes frequently and gently.C.Maintaining healthy eyes to prevent nearsightedness.D.Crying as often as possible to gain three layers of tears.13.What is the second paragraph mainly about?A.The classification of tears.B.The causes of three layers of tears.C.The functions of three layers of tears.D.The importance of the first layer of tears.14.How does the author think of blinking frequently when reading? A.Annoying. B.Disagreeable. C.Stupid. D.Harmless. 15.What is the best title for the text?A.Keep Eyes Coated with as Many Layers of Tears as PossibleB.Try Frequent Blinking for Healthier Eyes and Better VisionC.Actors and News Presenters Set Us a Bad Example in LifestyleD.Blinking Lowers the Experiences When Reading or Seeing a Film二、七选五We all know about the health benefits of swimming. It offers a great workout for the body--it builds perseverance, muscle strength, and cardiovascular (心血is good for us.Cold-water swimming involves swimming in natural areas including ponds, rivers, and the sea. Jumping in gives a short sharp shock to the body, but many participants say they get used to it. 17 . And research has found it can have much bigger benefits than that for your body and mind. Besides being good exercise, spending time outdoors and in the water improves well-being.18 . One man who suffered constant pain after surgery claimed he was cured by taking a dive in cold open water. And another swimmer, Sandria Simons, told the BBC, “The immersion of your body in cold, salt water, just feeling like you’re at one with nature if you like, just feels amazing.”But what are people gaining from this chilly experience? Doctors say getting into cold water causes a stress response, but the more you do it, your reaction to stress is reduced. It’s also thought to have a strong anti-inflammatory (消炎的)effect. 19 . Some experts believe cold-water swimming helps “cross-adaptation”, where one form of stress prepares the body for another. For example, it also helps reduce the stress of exercising at high altitudes.20 : approach it with great care, swim with a friend, and maybe start in the summer, when the water temperatures are higher!A.A cold swim wakes you upB.So, if you’re convinced that this is for you, take this adviceC.Do you want to have a go at open water swimmingD.But who would enjoy swimming in water that’s ice coldE.But there are bigger benefits to this stress-reducing exerciseF.Evidence suggests that cold-water swimming has cured certain health conditionsG.It can also be dangerous, so it’s important to do it right三、完形填空One dark morning while driving to work, my dad’s car slipped on black ice andknowing that highway is now a safer place.

湖北省枣阳市第一中学2015-2016学年高一下学期期末考试湖北省枣阳市第一中学2015-2016学年高一下学期期末考试语文试题时间:150分钟分值150分第一卷阅读题甲必考题一、现代文阅读(9分,毎小题3分)阅读下面的文字,完成后面题。
在世界文明对话史上,公元2世纪到7世纪期间最重要的历史事件当属佛教的东传及其与中华文明的对话。
这一文明对话产生了重要的历史后果,它不仅使佛教融入中华文明,与儒家、道教一起成为中国思想文化的结构性力量,而且也使得佛教获得持续的发展活力,从一个地方性宗教上升为世界性宗教,直到今天仍然发挥其重要的精神作用。
两汉时期,是佛教东传的发生期。
佛教进入中国大地是一个因地域关系自然而然地发生的过程,其教因西域使臣商贾以及热诚传教之人,渐布中夏,流行于民间。
(汤用彤)它不是像后来基督教教团派出大量传教士有组织地传教活动。
这一点决定佛教进入中国是和平的、非强制性的。
佛教最初传入中国是与当时道家的黄老之术和方士之术互相影响、相得益彰的。
魏晋南北朝时期是佛教东传的扎根期,隋唐时期是佛教东传的开花结果期,这两个时期是佛教文明与中华文明对话的最重要时期。
唐以后,随着三教合流,随着中国化佛教禅宗的盛行,融入中华文明的佛教已经成为中华文明的有机组成部分,佛教已经不是在异族异质文明意义上与中华文明展开对话了。
魏晋时期佛教文明与中华文明的对话主要体现在佛学与玄学的对话上,两种文明对话呈现出佛学的玄学化和玄学的佛学化。
南北朝时期佛教文明与中华文明对话的一个突出特征是皇帝亲自参与对话,如宋文帝曾与僧人论究佛理,宋武帝亲自到寺庙听讲,梁武帝甚至亲制发愿文,皈依佛教,大兴寺庙。
魏晋时期,中外学者合译佛经取得了突出的成绩。
东晋是佛典合译的高峰期。
不仅小乘佛教的基本经典《阿含经》系列被创译,而且大乘佛教的重要经论、密教经典、律典等都被译出。
当时在佛经的翻译解释中大量采用格义的方法,即用中国原有经典中的精义与典故来比配佛经中的道理,以便中国信徒的理解与接受。

湖北高一下学期期末英语试卷(带答案)
湖北高一下学期期末英语试卷(带答案)学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________一、阅读理解The Camino de SantiagoHow long is the Camino de Santiago? That depends. Some take on the all-Spanish 1, 000 km Via de la Plata route from Seville to Santiago to Compostela, while the most popular route, from Saint Jean Pied de Port in France-sometimes called the Camino Francés or French Way-is 790 km.A popular 116 km hike, ideal for 10 days of leisurely walking, is known as the English Way-not because English Christians prefer camping and pub stops to walking, but because it is believed the route, from Ferrol on the Galician Coast, was used by pilgrims (朝圣者) arriving from Britain and Ireland. The English Way starts with coastal views and passes through the small towns of Pontedeume and Betanzos, and lots of wooded and agricultural areas.Top TipWith a Pilgrim’s Credential, you qualify for lodgings (住宿), which have bunk beds (双层床铺) and shared facilities and cost from just £5-6 a night.When to GoThis part of Spain has relatively mild weather year round. March to October are likely to be best for sunshine, but rain is always possible here.Do It YourselfFly with Vueling (vueling, com) from London Gatwick to A Coruña, with returns £100, or take a boat from Plymouth to Santander (£150 return).A Coruña to Ferrol by train takes an hour and 10 minutes and costs £5.5.Lodging costs for 10 days come to about £60.The 40-minute train from Santiago de Compostela to A Coruña costs £5.5. 1.Why is the English Way famous?A.It appeals to English Christians. B.It was once employed by pilgrims. C.It is suitable for comfortable walking. D.It showed beautiful scenery along the route.2.Which month will you choose if you love sunshine?A.January. B.February. C.June. D.December.3.How should visitors go from Plymouth to Santander?A.By air. B.By rail. C.By car. D.By water.When Schauna Austin was 20 years old, she lost her husband to a car crash. Unable to raise a baby alone, she made a difficult decision during pregnancy—to place her baby for adoption (收养). She gave birth to a child she named Riley, and held him for 72 hours straight. “It was perfect,” Austin said about holding her new baby. “I knew I would have him for a short time, so I made every minute count of it. I didn’t sleep for three days, until the time came to let him go.”Her Riley became another family’s Steven. Like most closed adoptions, a firewall went up between Austin and Steven’s new parents- no communication whatsoever. But that only lasted about a week. Adoptive mother Jennifer Schoebinger and her husband, Chris Schoebinger, said they had no interest in excluding the birth mother. “You know, you can’t have too many people loving you, right? Why couldn’t he be both of ours?” Chris Schocbinger said.So, year after year, they sent Austin piles of pictures and bound books detailing Steven’s every major and minor milestone. The Schoebingers said they did this so that when Austin and their son were ready, they could pick up right where they left off. The two reunited when Steven was 7 years old. Austin taught him how to fish, and they have kept in contact ever since. Austin felt blessed beyond words, and Steven felt he got the best of both worlds.Steven is now 26, married, and with a baby boy of his own. Much to the delight of Austin, he named the child Riley. “I think the lesson we learned is that sometimes we create barriers (障碍) where barriers don’t need to be. And when we pull down those barriers, we really find love on the other side,” Chris Schoebingers said.That love on the other side has continued to grow. The families spend Thanksgiving as one, and will of course be getting together again in the days ahead. 4.What does the underlined sentence in the second paragraph mean?A.The less people love you, the better.B.Being loved by many people is desirable.C.There are too many people who care about you.D.It’s a burden to be cared about by too many people.5.What was Austin’s attitude towards reuniting with her son?A.Grateful. B.Tolerant. C.Anxious. D.Angry.6.What can we learn about the Schoebingers from the passage?A.They did not give birth to any children,B.They contacted Austin as soon as they adopted Steven.C.They believed it better to get the biological mother involved.D.They felt blessed beyond words when Austin taught Steven how to fish. 7.What does the author want to convey most through the passage?A.Biological parents are important to a child’s growth.B.People create barriers where barriers don’t need to be.C.Love is found when we pull down unnecessary barriers.D.Adoptive parents and biological parents should raise children together.To celebrate the 100th anniversary of Reader’s Digest, we’re relaunching our much-loved 100-Word-Story Competition with prizes of up to £1,000 to be won.Our 100-Word-Story Competition is your chance to show the world your story-telling talents.

Today on Education Tips, we will explore two no-cost ways that can help you improve your learning: wakeful rest and sleep.When many students finish studying, they often go straight to another activity. Perhaps they look at their phone or computer. They might even play a video game or watch television. But research suggests that resting after your study may help you remember what you have studied.The basic idea is this: by stopping your activity after the study, your brain gets a chance to rest. Resting is difficult when you are playing computer games.While this might sound unusual to you, many studies have explored the benefits(好处)of resting after learning —what is called “wakeful rest”.A 2019 study found that both young and older adults were able to better remember information they learned after doing wakeful rest.If you want to give “wakeful rest” a try, here are a few simple things to do. Rest quietly for five to ten minutes. Do not look at your phone, read stories or play games. It is really that easy!Besides wakeful rest, sleep is also important for learning. The Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School(HMS) notes that sleep helps people to learn in two ways. A report on the school’s website explains that “a sleep-deprived (剥夺)person cannot focus attention well and therefore cannot learn well”. It also says, “Sleep itself helps us to memorize and that memorizing is very important for learning new information.”The National Sleep Foundation(NSF) suggests that adults between the ages of 20 and 64 get between 7 and 9 hours of sleep per day. Teenagers may need a little bit more, and people over the age of 65 may need a little less.Try to get some “wakeful rest” after a study. Then try to get a good night’s sleep. That’s it —a simple, no-cost way to help you remember what you learn. 11.Which activity might be recommended shortly after studying?A.Reading a newspaper. B.Playing a video game.C.Sitting there doing nothing. D.Having a nice sleep at night. 12.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A.The importance of sleep.B.The good ways to get a rest.C.The reason for having a restD.The types of resting activities.13.How long should teenagers sleep each day according to NSF?A.Less than 7 hours. B.Just 7 hours.C.No more than 9 hours. D.Around 9 hours.14.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Low-cost Tips on WorkingB.Good Things to Do After Your StudyC.Why Do We Need to Have a Good Sleep?D.How Long Should We Rest After Learning?二、七选五Interesting Eating Habits From Different CountriesAmong one of the joys of traveling abroad is the exposure to different typesof cuisines. Here we provide some eating habits that could benefit you when travelingto a foreign country.BritainDinner may not be the dinner that you and I know. Depending on which part youare visiting in England, the term “dinner” can refer to the afternoon meal, or lunch as some of us know it. 15 , depending on how late it is consumed. The most common time for tea is four o'clock in the afternoon. Supper is generally a lighter meal taken later in the evening.China16 . To hold the chopsticks properly, first hold the first stick likea pencil, and the second stick between your thumb and your ring finger. Your middle finger should be in between the two chopsticks.IndiaIt is pretty widely known that Indians traditionally eat with hands. 17 Many urban Indians today, whether living in India or not, maintain the practice of eating with their hands.Before settling down to begin your meal, make sure to wash your hands thoroughly first. Always eat with your right hand only. 18 . Besides, make sure not to have any food touch your palms(手掌), and do not put your fingers into your mouth. Instead, use your fingers to push the food into your mouth.JapanIn Japan, before sitting down to a meal, fresh hot towels are given to you to clean your hands. When your orders arrive, it is also polite to say the phrase “itadakimasu”. 19A.It means “I’m going to start eating”B.Let China’s food culture move toward the worldC.In some countries, lunchtime often means soup timeD.Eating with your left hand is considered disrespectfulE.What we know as dinner is sometimes called tea or supperF.However, this practice is not limited to traditional Indians onlyG.The use of chopsticks when eating Chinese cuisine is one that needs practice三、完形填空“Hi, Mom” is a hit in China: since its release in early February the movie has grossed(获得......的毛利)more than 5 billion yuan($768m)at the box office.to market.

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.AWhen I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Week by weekher list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feel hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.21.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint?A. He refused to take the list and have a look at it.B. He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said.C. He was angry and told her to overcome her shortcomings.D. He told her to write down all and pay attention only to the things that were true.22.What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?A. Week by week she discovered and pointed out more shortcomings of mine.B. She kept on adding new ones to the list so it was growing longer and longer.C. I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.D. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.23.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?A. My FatherB. My ChildhoodC. The Best Advice I’ve Ever HadD. Not an Enemy, but the Best FriendConsidering Australia' s size and the fact that early settlements were far apart, Australian society is remarkably homogeneous ( 同种的). Its citizens are fundamentally prosperous and the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes a sharp ear to identify regionalaccents.However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city settlers and the country people. Almost 90 percent of the population lives in the fast-paced cities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities preserve images of colonial heritage, but the overall impression is modem, with new buildings reflecting the country' s youth. In contrast, the rural communities tend to be slow-moving and conservative. For many years, Australia was said to have "ridden on the sheep' s back" , areference to wool being the country' s main money earner. However, it is no longer dominant ( 主宰的) . Muchof Australia' s relatively sound economy is now achieved from natural coal and wheat, and by being the largest diamond producer in the world. Newer industries such as tourism and wine making are also increasingly important. Australians are generally friendly and relaxed, with a modest sense of humor.Yet, contrary to widespread belief, very few Australians have true prisoner origins. Within only one generation of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Australia had become a nation of immigrants. Originally coming almost entirely from the British Isles, today one in three Australians comes from elsewhere. Australia' s liberal postwar immigration policies led to a flowing of survivors from war-torn Europe, most notably Greeks, Italians, Poles and Germans.The emphasis has shifted in recent years and today the majority of new immigrants are from Southeast Asia. Today Australia is a "mixture of nations" and although some racism exists, it has generally been a successful experiment and the country is reasonably proud to have one of the most harmonious multicultural communities in the world.24.What does the writer mean by saying "has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert" in thesecond paragraph?A. The major population has a close relationship with the desert.B. The fast-paced cities are just located by the desert.C. The major population knows little about the desert.D. The major population is familiar with the people living in the desert.25.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. The pace of life in the city is different from that in the country.B. One third of people living in Australia come from Europe.C. The Australian economy is dependent on sheep exports.D. Most Australians have ancestors who were prisoners.26.What used to be Australia' s main money earner?A. Wheat.B. Wool.C. Tourism.D. Diamond.27.We can infer from the passage that ____.A. nothing about Australia' s colonial part in modem cities can be seen by visitorsB. tourism and wine making resulted in fast development in rural communities onlyC. immigrants from Europe have brought racial problemsD. Australia' s recent immigration policy encourages immigrants from Southeast AsiaThe old man fished alone in a small rowboat and he had gone eighty-four days now without taking a fish. In the first forty d ays a boy had been with him. But after forty days without a fish the boy’s patents had told him that the old man was now bad luck, and ordered the boy to join another boat, which caught three good fish thefirst week. It made the boy sad to see the old man come in each day with his boat empty and he always went down to help him carry in the fishing lines or take down the old, patched sail.“Santiago,” the boy said to him as they dragged up the boat to the sand. “I could go with you again. I’ve made some mon ey.” the old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him. “No,” the old man said. “You’re with a lucky boat. Stay with them. You must obey your father.” “We can be lucky again too. Remember when we didn’t catch a fish for 10 days, then caught a big one each day for a month?” said the boy. “Can I offer you a beer on the balcony and then we’ll take the stuff home,” said the boy. “Why not?” the old man said.“Santiago,” the boy said as they sat on the balcony, “If I cannot fish with you, I would like to serve in some way.” “You bought me a beer,” the old man said, lifting the bottle to his mouth. “Do you remember the first time I took you out to fish?” the old man asked. “I was five. I remember the tail of a huge fish slapping against the boat, the noise of you clubbing him and the sweet blood smell. I remember everything from when we first went together,” the boy said. The old man looked at him with his sun-burned, loving eyes.“May I get some sardines for tomorrow? Let me get four fresh ones,” said the boy. “One,” the old man said. His hope and his confidence had never gone. But now they were freshening like a sea breeze. “Two,” the boy said. “Thank you,” the old man said. He was too simple to wonder when he had attained modesty. But he knew he had att ained it and he knew it was not disgraceful and it carried no loss of true pride. “Tomorrow is going to be a good day with this wind,” he said. “I will row far out before it is light. There will going to be a good day with this wind,” he said. “I will row far out before it is light. There will be a big fish?” asked the boy. “I think so. And I know many tricks.”28.Why was the boy forced to stop working for the old man?A. It was too dangerous to continue fishing.B. It was time for the boy to return to school.C. The old man was thought to be a poor teacher.D. The boy couldn’t earn enough money with the old man.29.In paragraph 2, the boy probably mentioned their past fishing experiences in order to__________.A. convince the old man that he should not retireB. explain why he had to stop working for the old manC. persuade the old man to let him return as his assistantD. warn the old man about the danger of fishing in the deep sea30.Which of the following did the boy NOT do for the old man?A. Buy him a beer.B. Repair the sail.C. Drag up the boat.D. Take in the fishing equipment.31.What can we lean about the old man from the last paragraph?A. He remained optimistic about catching fish.B. He was the most skillful fisherman in the village.C. He would stay out longer than any other fisherman.D. He would usually go out further than any other boat.Dennis Sinar, 51, a doctor from New York, is quick to explain why he took a year- long break from his job. “ I was pretty burned out after practicing medicine for 26 years. I needed a recharge.” So he took a “ gap year”, from July 2011 to June 2012, to explore things like ancient buildings, and traditional Eastern medicine, inlocations including Alaska, Nepal and Romania.“ Taking a break from work is an excellent way for adults to go into a new career or refresh an old one,” said Holly Bull, president of Princeton,N,J. “ In recent years, mid-career breaks have been gaining more interest,” she said. A report on adult gap years published this year by a market research company also desbribed the potential American market for gap years as a “ sleeping giant.”“ A gap year is a challenge for the older individual to step out of comfort zone and take a risk. I enjoyed that side most.” Said Dr.Sinar, who kept a daily blog about his experience. His time studying Eastern medicine at his old job, although he works fe wer days. “ I use those experiences to provide my patients with more care,” he added. “ And I listen better than I did before.”Geoge Garrian, chairman of the Department of Leadership and Human Capital Mangement at New York University , certainly agrees with Dr. Sinar. He said a gap-year experience could be worthwhile for employees and companies. For employees, investing in themselves and improving skill sets is a move that will benefit throughout their career. He added that returning employees feel refreshed and have given more thought to their career. For companies, offering unpaid leaves makes good sense for attracting and keeping talented employees.32.Dr. Sinar took a gap year because he ______.A. had lost his old jobB. wanted to refresh after 26 years’ workC. had a desire for travellingD. became interested in historical research33.The phrase “sleeping giant”( in 2nd paragragh) indicates that_____.A. it’s too early for people to accept the concept of gap year.B. the effect of gap year policy remains to be seenC. it’s difficult to foresee the gap year marketD. more American people will accept the gap year policy34.What’s George Garritan’s attitude toward the “ gap year”?A. positiveB. DoubtfulC. UninterestedD. uncertain35.What’s the passage mainly about?A. How an adult plans a mid- career gap yearB. Why a gap year is worthwhile for adultsC. Whether a gap year is popular with adultsD. Why a gap year is challenging for individuals[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House SittingIn many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting.
