Enjoy the museum on the ground floor and learn what life is like working and living in a lighthouse. The souvenir shop provides attractive gifts for visitors at a fair price.1.Which one is unsuitable for kids of all ages?A.William’s Den, North Cave.B.East Riding Leisure Centres.C.Sewerby Hall and Gardens.D.Withernsea Lighthouse.2.Where can kids enjoy food?A.In William’s Den, North Cave and Sewerby Hall and Gardens.B.In East Riding Leisure Centres and Withernsea Lighthouse.C.In William’s Den, North Cave and East Riding Leisure Centres.D.In Sewerby Hall and Gardens and Withernsea Lighthouse.3.Where does this passage probably come from?A.A geography textbook.B.A science report.C.A financemagazine.D.A travel brochure.In the time to my Peru trip, I found out about a place known as Machu Picchu. It was so beautiful that it made me doubt whether Machu Picchu would even be the highlight of my trip. My first glance at the secret city of the Inca (spelled “Inka” in Peru, which means “king”) removed my doubt.Machu Picchu was built less than a hundred years before the Spanish conquest of the early 1500s, but was quickly abandoned before it was even completed when word of the Inka’s defeat reached the area. It was a place where the highest priests (神父) and selected worthy people lived to honor the gods above.When the Spaniards conquered the area known as the Empire of the Inca, they were known to destroy old signs of worship (崇拜) as they conflicted with their beliefs in a single God. Thankfully, Machu Picchu wasn’t known by the Spaniards, or anyone that wasn’t a local. Until 1911, the American historian, Hiram Bingham, made his famous exploration and exposition of the site.While Machu Picchu is known to almost everyone in the world today, it is quite surprising how isolated (与世隔绝的) it still is. Despite the difficulties of getting there, about half a million people visit it every year.The city is far larger than I expected and much like Chichen Itza in Mexico and has many geometrically positioned buildings. Starting from Cusco, you see signs everywhere that call Machu Picchu “La Maravilla del Mundo” (The World Wonder) and I couldn’t agree more. In 2007, Machu Picchu was named one of the New 7 Wonders of the World and I have yet to see a more deserving site.4.How did the author feel after looking at Machu Picchu?A.He thought about it all day long.B.He was deeply impressed and loved it.C.He thought he would come back later.D.He doubted it was the highlight of his trip.5.Why was Machu Picchu abandoned quickly?A.It wasn’t well preserved.B.The king didn’t really love it.C.Some bad news reached the area.D.It couldn’t protect the people against enemies.6.What helped Machu Picchu survive when the Spaniards took control of the area?A.That it was unknown to others.B.That it was protected by locals there.C.That it had no roads to get into the place.D.That it lacked old signs of praising God.7.What’s the authors attitude towards Machu Picchu as one of the New 7 Wonders of the World?A.Unconcerned.B.Doubtful.C.Surprised.D.Approving.“Your mind is a garden; your thoughts are the seeds. The harvest can either be flowers or weeds,” William Wordsworth wrote. In the above quote, William suggests that the process of gardening mirrors human life. Depending on what we “plant” in our lives, we bloom (生长茂盛) or don’t. Before you start to work in your garden, it’s necessary to have a vision for it. Thinking of what you want to grow in your garden and how to lay it out is a good first step in making your vision a fruitful reality. In life, you should consider what you want to create and what you want to achieve, because your mind-garden is like the white paper and the possibilities are endless.Regardless of what you choose to plant, poor soil isn’t suitable for growth. This is why gardeners take the time and energy to upgrade the soil before planting. So, creating the right soil is important to the realization of your goals and dreams. Fortunately, there are countless ways to make your personal bedrock better. Getting an education is one of the most effective ways, which can help you enrich your life’s soil.You don’t have to be an enthusiastic gardener to understand the meaning of “You reap(收获) what you sow.” When a gardener wants tomatoes, they just need to plant tomato seeds. It’s a very clear act that produces an expected result. Each of us has the power to decide which “life seeds” to plant. For example, if you plant ill seeds, it's likely that you’ll experience pain in return. Contrarily, if you plant seeds of kindness and understanding, yourlife will bloom with happiness and love.A gardener’s truly arduous work begins after the seeds are in the ground because a garden requires a lot of care and attention. Regular watering and weeding are required for a healthy garden. So, to ensure your dreams take root, you should be devoted, aware, and present. After countless hours and energy spent, the crops have grown well and are finally ready to be harvested.8.What is important before gardeners break ground in their gardens?A.Receiving some training in planting.B.Drawing up a good plan for their gardens.C.Having the courage to accept the worst outcome.D.Doing research on the common local garden plants.9.What is compared to getting education by the author?A.Improving the condition of the soil.B.Growing your most favorable plants.C.Taking care of the plants in your garden.D.Selecting proper goals in gardening work.10.What does the author want to express in Paragraph 3?A.Your quality of life depends on your positive action.B.Your experience can help you understand plants better.C.Your choice of soil is an important part in your gardening.D.Your knowledge of planting will make you a successful gardener.11.What does the underlined word “arduous” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Beneficial B.Creative C.Boring.D.ToughHowever exciting space exploration sounds, there’s a necessary and important point about it that needs to be considered: food supplies. Right now, astronauts typically rely on dry food in airtight bags and cans, since there are strict weight limits on items taken into space.space explorers.For those who’ve made an effort to try to grow food during space flights, they’ve faced many difficulties, including the absence of gravity, and a lack of soil, air and humidity (湿度). However, growing food to add and minimise (最小化) the food that must be carried to space will be increasingly important on long-duration flights into space. Great efforts have beenmade to explore the idea of space farming. Recently, a team led by Federico Maggi at the University of Sydney in Australia have worked out how plants can absorb nutrients from human urine (尿) , as was reported by New Scientist on March 27.After over 20 years of experiments, the results suggested that human urine could supply three to four out of the six nutrients that plants need. The researchers also found out that urine-fertilised plants produce no harmful by-products, such as carbon dioxide or ammonia.According to New Scientist, human urine is 95 percent water, with the other 5 percent made from nutrients which are harmful to the human body but not to plants. The advantage of this urine fueled life support system is obvious: By recycling liquid waste and producing food, an efficient cycle will be created.And most importantly, said New Scientist, the duration of space flights will be greatly extended to “20 years of flight”, meaning we may be soon sending astronauts on flights to Mars, or even beyond.12.What does the underlined part “out of the question” in the first paragraph probably mean?A.Uncertain.B.Doubtless.C.Impossible.D.Unnecessary.13.What can we learn from the research by the University of Sydney?A.Human urine is harmless to plants.B.Human urine provides six necessary nutrients for plants.C.Urine fertiliser is safer and more productive than chemical fertiliser.D.Urine-fertilised plants only release a small amount of carbon dioxide.14.What is the biggest advantage of using human urine for space farming, according to New Scientist?A.It does little harm to the environment in space.B.It will greatly reduce the cost of farming in space.C.Urine-fertilised plants are healthier and taste better.D.It could create conditions for long-term space flights.15.What’s the text mainly about?A.The significance of space farming.B.A possible new way to grow food in space.C.How to use human urine to produce food in space.D.Problems faced by astronauts on long-term space flights.The Benefits of Digital ArtDigital art is the process of creating artwork using computers and software. 16 Lets have a look.Digital art is often quicker to finish.Take oil paintings for example. If you create one in the traditional way, you will need all kinds of tools like paper, water, paints, etc. 17 But with my computer and the right software, I can start a digital oil painting in less than 10 seconds.18A computer with the right apps and software might cost you $1, 000, but physical art is pretty expensive. Pencils, paper, paints, paintbrushes and all of the other things you need soon get expensive. And they all need replacing — things can easily reach that $1, 000 and beyond.Digital art avoids using much space of your room.Drawings and paintings can take up lots of physical space. I have many physical drawings which are stored in boxes in my room. Some of the drawings took me weeks to complete. 19 It sounds crazy to say this but they just kept building up. Joyfully, digital art will not take up much space of the room.Digital art makes it easy to deal with mistakes.Digital art gives you the wonderful ability to correct your mistakes. Any time you make a mistake, you can step back from it right away with a push of a button. As for traditional art, it’s not easy to correct a mistake. For example, when your pen accidentally falls on your painting, you may not be able to deal with it. 20A.Digital art helps save money.B.These tools can be very important.C.It takes time to prepare all of these.D.And your painting will be destroyed.E.Digital art will never be a paper killer.F.But they never see the light of day now.G.Compared with traditional art, digital art has some advantages.二、完形填空Talent can come from anywhere and anyone. Whether they’ve majored in art or wereworld.That’s 22 what Liz Powers decided to do when she, her brother, and four local artists founded ArtLifting. This organization helps 23 artists achieve financial independence by selling their works on ArtLifting’s website. Though the website features 145 artists at present, when Powers first decided to shine a light on 24 talent, she wasn’t 25 to make such an impact.Powers was 26 to find that many gifted, artistic people 27 simple shelters. When they did create art, it ended up in shelter basements. She understood that for many of these artists, 28 could provide income. They had the talent; what they 29 was a way to make it known to the world. Therefore, Powers decided to set up an online 30 . It would create a real 31 between the artists and consumers who wanted original pieces for their walls.Today, ArtLifting is in 19 cities around the US, 32 artists and bringing their stories and 33 to walls around the country. Historically, artists' works were usually displayed in museums. Today, we find that talent can take 34 forms. ArtLifting doesn’t just sell impressive pieces; it helps artists 35 what anyone deserves (应得) independence, freedom and respect.21.A.mix B.share C.trade D.exchange 22.A.hardly B.normally C.exactly D.accidental 23.A.shy B.polite C.busy D.homeless 24.A.responsible B.friendly C.undiscovered D.unavoidable 25.A.expecting B.fearing C.choosing D.fighting 26.A.scared B.delighted C.ashamed D.shocked 27.A.searched for B.set up C.stayed in D.went through 28.A.preparation B.experience C.competition D.creation 29.A.received B.needed C.minded D.promised 30.A.market B.club C.office D.school 31.A.comparison B.similarity C.connection D.gap 32.A.teaching B.supporting C.pitying D.protecting33.A.adventures B.dreams C.pleasures D.artworks 34.A.familiar B.regular C.different D.popular 35.A.achieve B.require C.judge D.admit三、语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Left in poor conditions with no food or water, they have little hope as they live out their days without the mercy they deserve. Some are found and rescued, given the chance to experience how great life and humans can be; others aren't so lucky. To grow as a nation, we must fight for these abused(受虐待的) animals’ rights and seriously punish heartless owners.One of the first steps in protecting animals and creating effective cruelty laws is to know what animal cruelty actually is. There are two categories: passive cruelty and active cruelty. The first involves acts of omission, meaning the abuse happens as a result of ignorance or lack of action. Passive cruelty might seem less serious, but that is not the case; it can lead to terrible pain and suffering, and finally death. Examples include starvation, inadequate shelter in extreme weather conditions, and the failure to get medical care. Passive cruelty is sometimes due to the owner's ignorance, so many animal control officers will first try to educate ignorant owners on how to properly care for animals before giving them a citation(传票) or putting them in prison.Active cruelty, on the other hand, is more well-known and disturbing. Sometimes referred to as non-accidental injury, this type of abuse involves purposeful harm on an animal in order to feel more powerful or gain control. Active cruelty against animals should be taken very seriously, since it can be a sign that a person hasserious psychological issues and may commit more acts of violence---possibly against humans.It is hard to tell just what drives people to harm innocent animals. Most animal abusers find some sort of achievement or power in torturing a victim that they know can't fight back. While not all animal abusers become serial killers, it is important to take every case seriously.As a nation we need to make it our right to come together and ensure the safety of our beloved pets. As Margaret Mead once said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”4. What is the first step to do with the passive cruelty abusers?A. To throw them into prison.B. To bring the case to the court.C. To teach them how to treat animals.D. To give them a strong warning.5. We can learn from Para.3 that active cruelty ______.A. is actually a sign of power or controlB. has been taken seriously in the nationC. may lead to serious psychological problemsD. may cause acts of violence against humans6. What is the author’s attitude towards animal cruelty?A. Uncertain.B. Doubtful.C. Concerned.D. Pessimistic.7. The author wrote this passage to ______.A. warn those heartless pet ownersB. tell people the harm of animal crueltyC. explain the reasons why people harm animalsD. call on people to fight for the abused animalsCYou must have read "The Tortoise and the Hare(《龟兔赛跑》)" when you were younger. So which animal are you? The tortoise or the hare? Do you rush around trying to do things as quickly as possible? Or do you deal your work at a slow , but steady(稳定的)pace? Whether you approach life like the tortoise or the hare can make a difference in the results you'll see.Some will say that you should avoid being like the hare. After all. he was overconfident and finally lost the race. You mayalso have heard teachers say from time to time that "haste makes waste”. But what does that mean?Most people think it meant that the faster you do something,the more likely it is that you'll make mistakes. Many teaches wantyouto approach your schoolwork thoughtfully and carefully.But does haste always make waste? Not necessarily ! Some people are able to work quickly while also maintaining(保持)a high level of quality in all that they do. Recent research, however, is making the idea of haste making waste seem more believableResearchers found that the brain changes into a special mode(模式)when forced to make rapid decisions. Overall, there appears to be a trade-off between speed and correctness. As the brain makes decisions more quickly, those decisions are usually built on less information, which often leads to a greater likelihood of mistakes.When you approach things like the tortoise. you methodically and steadily work towards your goal. You might not arrive there first, but then again you might! In any case, you're likely to make fewer mistakes and you might just enjoy the journey more than the bare.Goals are great to work towards, but often the achievements aren't what we remember. In the end, the most meaningful and important parts of our lives are the journeys we went on , not the destination we reached. So be the hare when you have to, but always remember that the slow and steady journey is what you’ll remember and treasure the most.8. Why does the author mention the story in the first paragraph?A. To introduce the topic.B. To show its popularity.C. To suggest its importance.D. To advise readers to read it.9. For what purpose do teachers often say “haste makes waste to students?A. To ask them not to waste their time.B. To tell them it is OK to make mistakes.C. To ask them to avoid making silly mistakes.D. To tell them they should check their schoolwork.10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. How the brain collects the information it needs.B. When the decision made by the brain is correct.C. Why the quickly-made decision is often unwise.D. What the relationship between lime and results is.11. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Finishing the race is often a victory for everyone.B. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.C. The journey to every destination starts with a small step.D. A destination is important because it guides us on the journey.DSome years ago a young man applied to a large United States optical firm for a job as a lens designer. He apologized for lack of training, but on announcing that he owned two copies of the classic Conrady's Applied Optics and Optical Design, one for his office and a second for his bedside table, he was hired on the spot. Perhaps the story will be repeated some day with Buchdahl's Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics as a similar certificate of qualification.Hamiltonian theory describes with powerful generality the overall properties of optical systems considered as ‘black boxes’, although it does not describe the detailed structure needed to construct the systems and achieve these properties. Buchdahl's book is therefore on the subject of geometrical optics, but it is not about how to design lenses. It is, however a compact comprehensive account of the fundamentals of the theory written with the lens designer's needs very much in mind. Every lens designer worth his salt has at some time in his career attempted to apply the broad concepts of Hamiltonian optics to the solutions of practical problems. Success has been sufficiently rare that the theory, as such, has made little direct contribution to techniques for optical instrument design. The failures have been frustrating because of the obvious fundamental power of the theory and because of its conceptual elegance. The indirect effects have been large, however, both in contributing to an understanding of fundamental principles that govern the overall behavior of optical systems and in pointing the way to other, more practical, theoretical approaches.Buchdahl approaches the subject not only as a capable mathematical physicist, but as one who with a knowledge of practical optics has made a significant contribution to geometrical optical theory. Buchdahl's approach has, over the last decade, had a major impact on modern lens design with computers. Thus, he brings to this exposition of Hamiltonian optics a familiarity with practical optics not usually found in authors on this subject.The author claims his book to be non-mathematical, and indeed it might be so viewed by a professional mathematician. From the point of view of many physicists and engineers, it will appear to be quite mathematical. Moreover, this is a tightly written book. The subject matter is developed with precision, and the author expects the reader, at very point, to be master of the preceding exposition.12. Hamiltonian theory met with failures as a result of ______.A. newer finding related to the wave particle nature of lightB. very complicated concepts too difficult to understand by most lens designersC. too much mathematical detail in the theoryD. not enough practical information offered by the theory to allow for use by lens crafters13. The author of this passage implies that Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics is necessary to ______.A. the students who are major in mathematical geometryB. those who want to grasp the basic principles of optical systemsC. the lens designers who look for instructions on practical designsD. those who are interested in physics14. The article points out that the great benefits of Hamiltonian optics have been found is ______.A. indirect ways of learning mathematicsB. a fundamental power within the theoryC. the conceptual elegance of the theoryD. the practical applications of the theory in finding new approaches to old problems15. This passage is probably excerpted from ______.A. a review of a bookB. a chemistry textbookC. an optician's essayD. a general science text第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

英语试题(考试时间:120分钟分值:150分)第I卷(共100分)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15题:每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AToday, in many places, like restaurants and hotels, people use Wechat or other kinds of payment to pay for their bills. So some scholars say that the wallet is heading for extinction. It will die off with the generation who read printed newspaper. The kind of shopping where you hand over notes and count out change in return now happens only in small retail(零售) counters, like buying a bar of chocolate or a pint of milk from a corner shop. At the shops where you spend any real money, that money is increasingly abstract. At the most famous retail store Victoria Beckham on Dover Street, you don’t have to stand a t any kind of cash register when you decide to pay. The staff are equipped with iPads to take your payment while you relax on a sofa.Wherever you go, you can get an excellent service, if you have the money. But across society, the abstraction of the ide a of cash makes me uneasy. Maybe I’m just old-fashioned. But earning money isn’t quick or easy for most of us. Isn’t it a bit weird(怪异的) that spending it should happen in half a blink of an eye?But I’ll leave the economics to the experts. What bothers me about the death of the wallet is the change it reflects in our physical environment. The opposite of a wallet is a smart phone or an iPad. When we pay for anything, instead of digging through pieces of paper and peering into corners in a wallet, what we need to do is to move our fingers left and right. Show your wallet, if you still have one. It may not be here much longer.21.According to the text, customers can pay their bills _________ in big modern stores.A. secretlyB. separatelyC. electronicallyD. mentally22.What makes the writer feel uncomfortable nowadays?A. Saving money is out of date.B. Spending money is so fast and easy.C. Earning money is getting more difficult.D. The pleasure of spending money is fading.23.The writer implies that_________.A. he likes the nature of his walletB. he is against technological progressC. he feels insecure about the changes of the modern paymentD. he wants to return to the old traditions of the old society.BDespite gains in recent years,women still fall behind men in some areas of math achievement,and the question of why has caused heated argument. Now,a study of first and second graders suggests what may be part of the answer:Female primary school teachers who are concerned about their own skills could be passing that along to the little girls they teach.Young students tend to model themselves after adults of the same sex,explained Beilock,an associate professor in psychology at the University of Chicago. Little girls may learn to fear math from the women who are their earliest teachers. Beilock and her colleagues studied 52 boys and 65 girls in classes taught by 17 different teachers. Ninety percent of the US primary school teachers are women,as was all of those in this study.Students’ math ability was not related to teachers’ math anxiety at the start of the school year,but at the end of the year,the more anxious teachers were about their own skills,the more likely their female students—but not the boys—were to agree to that “boys are good at math and girls are good at reading”.In addition,the girls who answered that way scored lower on math tests than either the classes’ boys or the girls who had not developed such a belief,the researchers found.After seeing the results,the researchers recommended that the math requirements for obtaining a primary education teaching degree should be rethought. “If the next generation of teachers,especially primary school teachers,is going to teach their students more effectively,more care needs to be taken to develop both strong math skills and positive math attitudes in these educators,” the researchers wrote.“Girls who grow up believing females lack math skills wind up avoiding harder math classes. It keeps girls and women out of a lot of careers,particularly in science te chnology,” Beilock said.24. We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ______.A. teachers in US primary schools are mostly femalesB. the students involved in the study are starters at primary schoolC. young students usually follow example of their female teachersD. it’s true that boys do well in math while girls do well in reading25. We can we infer from the text?A. Beilock’s study will bring about a primary education revolution.B. Girls’ lack of confidence in math skills affects their future jobs.C. The performance of the students changed little during the process of the study.D. The researchers argued that current primary school education needed improving.26. What’s the suggested solution to the phenomenon mentioned in the text?A. Using different approaches to excite students’ interest in math.B. Reducing the number of situations that make teachers anxious.C. Creating more chances for boys and girls to work together in class.D. Improving teachers’ math skills and changing their m ath attitudes.27. What’s the main idea of the text?A. Girls may learn math anxiety from female teachers.B. Boys are free from the math anxiety of female teachers.C. Primary school teachers have a far-reaching influence on students.D. Students should learn how to hold positive attitudes towards math.CIn the late 1950s, a Russian geneticist called Dmitry K. Belyaev attempted to create a tame (驯化的) fox population. Through the work of a breeding programme at the Institute of Cytology and Genetics at Novosibirsk, in Russia, he sought to find the evolutionary pathway of tame animals. His test subjects were silver-black foxes, a melanistic (带黑色的) version of the red fox that had been bred in farms for the color of their fur.He selected the animals based on how they responded when their cage was opened. About 10% of the foxes displayed a weak “wild-response”, meaning they were docile around humans. Those that hid in the comer or made aggressive voices were left in the farm. Of those friendly foxes, 100 females and 30 males were chosen as the first generations of parents.When the young foxes were born, the researchers hand-fed them. They also attempted to touch or pet the foxes when they were two to two-and-a-half months old, for strictly measured periods at a time. If the young foxes continued to show aggressive response, even after significant human contact, they were thrown away from the population---meaning theywere made into fur coats. In each selection, less than 10% of tame individuals were used as parents of the next generation.By the fourth generation, the scientists started to see dramatic changes. The young foxes were beginning to behave more like dogs. They wagged their tails and “eagerly” sought contact with humans. By 2005-2006, almost all the foxes were playful, friendly and behaving like domestic dogs. The foxes could “read” human hints and respond correctly to gestures or glances.28. What do we know about Belyaev’s breeding plan?A. It explains how red foxes were bred.B. It focuses on how tame animals evolved.C. It explains why pet foxes became popular.D. It concentrates on why tame animals disappeared.29. How did he choose his test foxes in the experiment?A. By appearance.B. By color.C. By reaction.D. By flexibility.30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A. Smart foxes were used for testing.B. The purpose of selection was unclear.C. Friendly foxes were kept on testing.D. The selection was not exact and thorough.31. What is the distinguishing characteristic of the fourth generation foxes?A. Behaving in a friendlier way.B. Eating plants.C. Having drooping ears.D. Having shortened legs.DCrossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don't even notice that they're doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won't feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can causelong-term health issues. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Don't keep your legs crossed.Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.32. What can we learn about crossing one's legs?A. It is a very bad social habit.B. It can do harm to people's health.C. It is usually practiced deliberately.D. It can make others feel uncomfortable.33. According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can______.A. affect your blood pressureB. resist gravity effectivelyC. lead to heart attacks easilyD. improve the function of legs34. In the third paragraph “pins and needles” probably means______.A. being highly flexibleB. being a little tiredC. serious muscle injuriesD. slight sharp pains35. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To compare common habits.B. To evaluate effects of an experiment.C. To give readers some advice.D. To introduce research methods.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。

2022-2023学年湖南省长沙市第一中学高一上学期第三次月考英语试题

2022-2023学年湖南省长沙市第一中学高一上学期第三次月考英语试题

一中2022-2023年高一第一学期第三次月考英语第二部分阅读(共两节,满分50 分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AUrban(乡村的) gardens are valuable places to communities. They provide green spaces to grow sustainable food, build community cohesion(凝聚力), make new friends, connect with the earth, and much more. So, let's check out our list of 4 inspiring urban gardens in the US.Gotham GreensWhere: New York & ChicagoWhat: Gotham Greens first started in Brooklyn and now has four locations in New York City and Chicago. Their flagship farm in Brooklyn produces over 100,000 pounds of greens per year. But it doesn't just produce healthy local vegetables. It is using high-tech greenhouses with solar panels(太阳能电池板) to make sure the food grown is healthy and sustainable.Baltimore Urban Gardening with StudentsWhere: Baltimore, MarylandWhat: The Baltimore Urban Gardening with Students (BUGS) program encourages students to get their hands dirty and plant vegetables through their after-school and summer programs. Many of these kids don't have access to green spaces, and have never had the opportunity to grow food.ReVision Urban FarmWhere: Boston, MassachusettsWhat: ReVision Urban Farm in Boston works in partnership with the ReVision Family Home a shelter for 22 homeless parents and their kids. The farm provides these families with information on healthy eating, and access to the farm's fresh vegetables. The organization also provides job training to help these families escape the cycle of poverty.SwaleWhere: New YorkWhat: Swale, a floating food forest located on a large boat, is a project meant to inspire citizens to rethink the relationship between our cities and our food. This urban garden serves as both a living art exhibit(展览品) and an educational farm. Food forests are sustainable gardens that include vegetables, fruit, nut trees, bushes, herbs, and vines- each one complementing(完美) the other in a symbiotic(共生的) relationship.21. What does the BUGS program mainly do?A. Provide job training for students.B. Use high-tech greenhouses to grow healthy food.C. Create a sustainable garden on a large boat.D. Offer students the opportunity to grow vegetables.22. Which urban garden helps homeless people get out of poverty?A. Gotham Greens.B. Baltimore Urban Gardening with Students.C. ReVision Urban Farm.D. Swale.23. Where can citizens go to see a food forest?A. Chicago.B. Baltimore.C. Boston.D. New YorkBDo you like to keep fit? We're always told that regular exercise is good for our body and mind. More and more people are taking up activities that improve their fitness. But is there a risk that some of us might get obsessed (着迷的) and overdo it?Well, for some people, fitness has become an obsession as they aim for perfection. And fitness trackers (追踪器) and apps can add to this addiction (癒), especially if someone is driven by achievement and perfectionism. And sharing data on social media means exercising becomes public and competitive, which could cause problems in someone who is vulnerable(脆弱的).Experts say this can lead to a medical condition called orthorexia nervosa, or addiction to healthy eating and over-exercise. Untreated, it can lead to malnutrition and mental health complications.Too much exercise can also take its toll on someone's physical health as well. Symptoms of over-exercising include injuries such as a broken leg and a low immune system. So how much exercise is too much? Researchers found the ideal pace to jog was about eight kilometers per hour and that it was best to jog no more than three times a week or for 2.5 hours in total, showing that moderate jogging is possibly more beneficial than being inactive or undertaking strenuous (剧烈的) jogging.If you're more of a couch potato than a quick runner, this might sound like good news. But for amateur (业余的) athletes who can't help but push their bodies to the limit the advice from Martin Turner. a sports and exercise psychologist(心理学家),is, “ It's all about letting go, not being obsessed, learning not to controleverything, saying, “You don't need to be perfect.”24. What contributes most to people's addiction to over-exercise according to paragraph 2?A. Their urge for social support.B. Their pursuit of perfectionism.C. Their addiction to fitness apps.D. Their concern over health issues.25. What does the underlined phrase “take its toll on” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Have a bad effect on.B. Go hand in hand with.C. Make little difference to.D. Play an important role in.26. What is the text mainly about?A. The risk of fitness obsession.B. The importance of mental healthC. The benefits of moderate jogging.D. The symptoms of over-exercising.27. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Science.B. Opinion.C. Culture.D. LifestyleCA woman held her phone tightly to her heart the way a churchgoer might hold a Bible. She was anxious to take a picture of an impressive bunch of flowers that sat not so far away, but first she had to get through a crowd of others pushing their way to do the same. The cause of this was Bouquets to Art, one of the most popular events at the de Young Museum in San Francisco.Flower sellers were asked to create flower arrangements that respond to pieces of art on display, from ancient carvings to contemporary sculptures. It's extremely attractive and also memorable, to the point that it has become a problem.In recent years, the de Young received more than a thousand complaints from people who felt that cell phones had spoiled their experience of the exhibit. Institutions of fine art around the world face similar problems as the desire to take photographs becomes a huge attraction for museums, as well as something thatupsets some of their patrons(资助人). So the de Young responded with a kind of compromise: carving out "photo free" hours during the exhibition's six-day run.One common complaint about the effect of social media on museum culture is thatpeople seem to be missing out on experiences because they are so busy collecting evidence of them. A study recently published in the journal Psychological Science suggests there is some truth to this. It finds that people who keep taking photos of an exhibit and posting them on social media rather than simply observing it, have a hard time remembering what they see. But the issue is complex for the professionals running museums. Linda Butler, the de Young's head of marketing and visitor experience, acknowledges that not everyone wants a museum to be "a photo-taking playland". Yet a lot of people do and she believes that the de Young is in no position to judge one reason for buying a $ 28 ticket to be more valid than another. “If we removed social media and photography,” she says,“we would risk becoming irrelevant.”28. What was the woman eager to do according to paragraph 1?A. To get her phone.B. To escape the crowdC. To take a photo.D. To push ahead.29. How did the de Young respond to the complaints from visitors?A. By setting periods without photo-taking.B. By making the exhibition free of charge.C. By compromising with the government.D. By extending the free exhibition hours.30. The recent study finds that the use of social media in museums may _________.A. uncover the truthB. cause irrelevancyC. bring more pleasureD. play a negative role31. Which of the following may Linda Butler support?A. Reducing admission prices.B. Meeting different needs of the visitors.C. Reserving judgement in public.D. Banning social media and photography.DCuckoos(布谷鸟) are masters of cheating. When it comes to raising young, they don't spend the energy building a nest(鸟巢), protecting eggs or feeding children. Instead, the female passes these roles on to other birds. They don't raise their own young. Usually, they lay their eggs in the nests of other birds, fooling other birds into thinking the cuckoo eggs are theirs.To succeed in doing this, & female cuckoo watches over her chosen nest to observe feeding times. When the host parent leaves its nest in search of food, the cuckoo quickly lays her eggs among those already in the nest. Sometimes, she will even destroy and remove one of the host's eggs to make room for her own.Cuckoos are medium-sized birds with long tails, and often have gray or brown backs. When they hatch(孵化) and begin to grow in a host's nest, the difference between the two can be obvious to an onlooker. Often the cuckoo is twice the size of its foster parents(养父母),but still continues to receive food from them.The cuckoo imposter(冒名顶替者)is usually the only baby bird that the host parent has to care for. This is because when the cuckoo hatches after around 11 days, it gets rid of all the other eggs in the nest. It will lift each egg onto its back before throwing them one by one over the edge of the nest. Even then, the nonbiological parent will continue to treat it as one of its own.Also, cuckoos have developed to produce eggs that are similar in color to their main hosts'. This reduces the chances of eggs being attacked. Female cuckoos have been known to take host birds' attention away after laying their eggs by producing a noise similar to Eurasian sparrowhawks, scaring birds away from returning to the nest and allowing time for the cuckoo to make her escape unnoticed.32. What do mother cuckoos usually do when it comes to raising their young?A. Attend to eggs.B. Build a new nest.C. Learn feeding skills.D. Rely on other birds.33. Wh at does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Other cuckoos.B. Baby cuckoos.C. Cuckoo's host parents.D. Cuckoo's birth parents.34. What can be inferred about the cuckoo imposter?A. It usually hatches out earlier than the other eggs in the nest.B. It throws all the other eggs out of nests with its mother's help.C. It often makes a noise to scare other birds away from the nest.D. It looks much larger than other eggs in the nest before hatching.35. Which can be the best title for the text?A. How cuckoos protect their childrenB. How cuckoos fool other birdsC. How cuckoos destroy others' nestsD. How cuckoos produce eggs第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Train travelers will surely agree that when the guard (列车长) makes an announcement, whether it’s the recorded message or the guard’s message, few people listen to it, because it’s often quite dull or hard to understand. This one was different. I noticed that other passengers appeared to be listening, too. Not only that, everyone was smiling!Why was so much attention being paid to this message? As best I can recall the guard said something along these lines, “Good Morning Ladies, Gentlemen and Children, this is the 7: 35 a.m. from Penrith to Central and you’ll be pleased to know that we are right on time. And what a lovely morning it is in Sydney today. The sun is shining, birds are singing, and all’s right with the world. I trust you have a great day wherever you’re going. Thanks for catching my train this morning and I hope to see you again soon.”Quite a few people (obviously previous strangers) started talking to one another about the guards excellent message and how good it had made everyone feel. I started thinking about this, and then I found the young guard and said “Were you the guard on the 7: 35 a.m. from Penrith?” The guard seemed a bit stunned at first, replying, “Yes, yes.” “Well, I really appreciate your announcement. Thank you for your extremely good message, which gave me and the other passengers such a good start to the day. Please keep doing it.” I said.There are two messages for me in what happened that day. Firstly, when people are happy in their work, it shows in what they do and say. Secondly, the story attaches much importance to the benefits that accumulate (积累) from thanking people for something they’ve done, particularly when it’s not expected. Can you imagine the conversation that guard would have when he got home?4.Why do few train travelers listen to the announcements?A.The messages are unattractive.B.The guard’s voice is not clear.C.They usually feel sleepy.D.They are absorbed in books.5.What does the underlined word “stunned” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Patient.B.Frightened.C.Surprised.D.Excited.6.What might the guard talk about with his family when he got home?A.The beautiful weather.B.The recorded message.C.The train from Penrith.D.The unexpected appreciation. 7.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.An Intelligent Guard.B.A Boring Train Story.C.A Different Train Announcement.D.A Lovely Morning in Sydney.I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers (同龄人) and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values (内卷式价值观). As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have constantly (不断地) received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great accomplishment.Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and constantly nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their constant arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school’s community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, assist them with their daily life, and listen totheir problems, glory days and the hardships they experienced.Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it, after all. 8.What can be inferred about the author from the first paragraph?A.His good grades got him a good job.B.He refuses to compete with his peers fiercely (激烈地).C.His views on social values are well known.D.He is content with his performance at school.9.Which role does the author play in his parents’ relationship?A.A helper.B.A judge.C.A monitor.D.A supporter. 10.What is the greatest accomplishment for the author?A.The contribution to volunteering.B.The success in exams.C.The recovery of confidence in life.D.The work in community service. 11.Why does the author want to major in social work at university?A.To gain a well-paid job.B.To give his life a purpose.C.To meet his grandparents’ expectations.D.To better help the disadvantaged.Teenagers who spend more time on after-school activities and less than two hours of screen time after school are more mentally (心理上) healthy, according to a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine. The new study was carried out by researchers from the University of British Columbia.The study used information collected from more than 28, 000 seventh-grade Canadian students between 2014 and 2018. The students first answered questions about their usage of screen time after school, including how much time they spent watching TV, Netflix or something else. Then, students reported how many days they had taken part in after-school activities such as sports or arts programmes. After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind. For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale (等级).Some of the results were expected, researchers said in the study. Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators (消极指标) of mental health, as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety (焦虑) compared to boys.What was noteworthy, researchers say, is that even among students who took part in after-school activities, 46% still went beyond the recommended screen time of two hours. At the same time, 67% of students who didn’t take part in after-school activities also had more than two hours of screen time. Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.“The findings suggest that after-school activities are valuable for the happy growing of teenagers,” the study said. “While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic (学业的) development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.”12.Which of the following came last when students took part in the new study?A.Talking about their lifestyles.B.Introducing their after-school activities.C.Reporting their mental states on a scale.D.Answering questions about screen time use.13.What do the researchers find about teenage girls?A.They often have higher levels of satisfaction.B.Few of them take part in after-school activities.C.Anxiety has become a serious problem among them.D.Too much screen time may be more harmful to them.14.What does the author want to show by using the numbers in paragraph 4?A.Earlier findings about screen time are wrong.B.High screen time is common among teenagers.C.No after-school activities mean no screen time.D.Screens attract teenagers more than after-school activities do.15.Why are after-school activities so important according to the new study?A.They are good for teenagers’ physical health.B.They help to improve teenagers’ mental health.C.They encourage teenagers’ social development.D.They allow teenagers to become better learners.二、七选五Fun Ways to Learn English Faster©Read, read, read.One of the easiest things you can do to learn English faster is to read as much as you can.16 This will make your vocabulary better and it will also help you learn grammar and slang(俚语).◎Watch movies.Watching movies will also help you improve your English, by helping you to hear what it sounds like and also helping you to learn new words. 17 Once you have a basic vocabulary,try to keep the subtitles(字幕)off and focus on listening for the words you do know and guessing the words you don’t know from what is happening on the screen.◎Find an online pen-pal.Pen-pals are people trying to learn your language that you write letters (or emails) to and they write back. You write half of your letter in your native language so that they can practise and half in English so that you can practise. 18◎Singsongs.Learning and singing songs is another good way to make your English better. 19 It will also help increase your vocabulary. Find a song you like, learn it, and learn what the lyrics(歌词)mean.◎ 20You can also just make friends with English language speakers online and chat, email, and Skype together in order to practise your English. You can find online friends by joining fan communities or through language-learning communities.A.Make a friend.B.Join a fan community.C.Read things all the time.D.You can talk about whatever you want!E.You can start watching with subtitles on.F.This will help you improve your pronunciation.G.Newspapers are a good way to learn the basics of a language.三、完形填空Two heroic teenage lifesavers were praised after rescuing(救援) a drowning man from Lake Mulwala.Grace Creenaune, and Erica Montgomery, 18, were on duty 21 as lifeguards at the local water park on Tuesday, when two men bought tickets to go into the park.Workers 22 the men had been drinking and they were 23 to leave.
