Together they eat in the finest restaurants, traveling everywhere around the world by luxurious planes and pleasure ships. They are models.Do you envy them? What sort of life are models leading? Is it a wonderful life for a young lady or a young man?A few models are well-known actors or actresses who can make a lot of money only by showing themselves off in commercials. But the majority of them are just curious to see what it is like. They’d like to be models just because they are attracted by what they imagine — models earn a lot of money and lead a glorious life. This is true for those who are very successful. However, most models find it difficult to get work. Very few can earn enough to live on, and for all models their expenses are high. Their agents claim about 20% of the earnings, and no model will get very far without a clever agent. Besides, they have to buy good clothing. They also have to pay to travel to interviews and reach the places where the work is to be done.Interviews for a model job are known as cattle-markets in the modeling world, and not without a good reason.A top model can choose his or her work, demand and receive high fees and has his or her expenses paid. But for most models, the situation is quite different. And agent or employer inspects each model much as a farmer inspects cattle at a market. Intelligence, qualifications and personal characteristics count for little against good looks and tight figures. For all except the very few lucky ones, the life of a model is a continual search for work, trying to sell himself or herself in the face of fierce competition and, sometimes, not particularly moral standards on the part of some employers.Immigration officials at airport look suspiciously at a girl whose passport shows her occupation as “Model”, and these are men and women of considerable experience of the world. It comes no surprise to find that some models prefer to put “Secretary” or “Businessman” as their jobs in their passports.Modeling is a changeable world with great rewards for a tiny minority but not for the majority.21. For models, their good looks and tight figures are _____________, compared with their intelligence and qualifications.A. more importantB. less neededC. less essentialD. more looked down upon22. Which of the following can lead you to believe according to the passage?A. A model’s traveling expenses are usually paid by his employer.B. To be a model, good looks are the most important qualification.C. Most models have a fairly easy way of life with high pay.D. A model can hardly be successful without a good agent.23. Models often put “Secretary” or “Businessman” instead of “Model” in their passports because__________________.A. they want to avoid being stopped to sign their names by fansB. a person with the occupation of a model is easily attacked by black societiesC. models are sometimes looked down uponD. secretaries and businessmen are free of custom duty24. What may be the author’s attitude towards modeling?A. It is a worthwhile life for a young lady or a young man.B. He is in favor of young people to try modeling.C. Before being crazy about a model job, young people should be aware of the difficulties.D. It is a field in which everyone has a great chance to succeed.25. The underlined word “suspiciously” can most probably be replaced by _________________.A. doubtfullyB. excitedlyC. proudlyD. sadlyBln the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals.This sometimes happens with humans also.But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people.I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat.And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily.They don’t get to see this soft side of others.Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending.But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me.At that moment,I decided to do something I had never done in twenty four years of driving.I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to the other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood.Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get aro und me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way.But those are few and far between.More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we’re brave when we’re scared.26.The author has discovered that people will feel happy when ________.A.they offer their helpB.they receive others’ helpC.they feel others’ kindnessD.they show their weakness27.The author feels sad sometimes because ________.A.he has a soft heartB.he relies much on othersC.some people pretend to be kindD.some people fail to see the kindness in others28.What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?A.They speeded up to pass.B.They waited with patience.C.They tried their best to help.D.They put on their flashlights too.29.In this passage, the author advises us to ________.A.handle problems by ourselvesB.accept help from othersC.admit our weaknessD.show our bravery30.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A.A Wheelchair Experience.B.Weakness and Kindness.C.Weakness and Strength.D.A Driving Experience.三.补全对话(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Can't get out of the office?

江西省丰城中学2016-2017学年高一上学期英语周练1(9.28) 缺答案
高一年级上学期英语周练试题1(A卷)(2—18班)命题人:聂志芳2016—9-28AEveryone needs friends。
We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk,laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lone ly if we never had a friend.No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well,which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends。
Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad。
We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them。
Families sometimes name (以。
命名)their children after a close friend。
Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town。

When the st udents graduated(毕业), most of them became ministers or teachers.In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training(训练)in Harvard's law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began te aching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American history.As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects.

The emblem of the Athens Olympic Games the year is a white circle of Oliver branches (橄榄枝) in the sky. It means "Peace" (和平).This year the Olympic Games will be on in China. And China had already made a red seal (印章) as the emblem of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. It means "Chinese Seal Dancing Beijing (中国印. 舞动的北京)". It isalso like a runner or a dancer.

He has discovered that how we deal with money in our daytoday life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money,they can see what they really val ue in life.He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and y ou think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does,it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling,but if it is not carried out in the money world,there is something less real about it.Since money is so i mportant to us,we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires (百万富翁) in researching his book.Question:What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich,because you are a selfmade man?Answer:The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I do not know much. All I am is rich.People just have an idea of making more and more money,but what is it for?How much do I need for any given purposes in my life?In his book,the professor uncovered an important need in modern society:To bring back the idea that money is a tool rather than the purpose. Money plays an important role in the material world,but expecting money to bring happiness may be missing the meaning of life.21. According to Paragraph 1, _______________.A. people haven’t realized the hidden meaning of dealing with money in their lifeB. people need to practise using money in their lifeC. people have understood money values a lot in their life.D. people can see money is not important in their life.22. The author (作者) seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you somemoney________.A. is a good way to test your friendshipB. will do harm to your friendshipC. will strengthen your friendshipD. is a good way to break off your friendship23. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?A. He does not feel that he is well educated.B. He does not think that he is a very important person.C. He doesn't think that being rich is worth so much attention.D. He does not consider himself to be very successful.24. What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?A. Money is an end.B. Money is a means (手段).C. Money is everything.D. Money is unimportant.25. Which of the following might the author disagree with?A. Money is important in modern society.B. The meaning of life does not completely lie in money.C. Wealth will surely bring the owner happiness.D. Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth.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。

A ★My family had always been close and lucky. No one died and no one was sick. We were all living a happy life until my grandfather had cancer. No matter how much I told myself he might not die, somehow I still felt as if it was a death sentence. He fought so hard but died at 63. I honestly didn’t know how I dealt with. I never cried alone. I had the support of my family and teachers. I just remembered my grandfather’s wish that we should celebrate his life.That’s how we came up with the idea for Hives (蜂房) for Lives —a business my sister and I started where all the profits (赢利) go to the American Cancer Society (ACS). During our first year we donated (捐赠) more than $2,000 to the ACS. The next year a man who belonged to my grandparents’ “bee club”gave his honey to us, and our little business grew. We sold at wine festivals, schools, and to anyone else who would buy! We had my uncle sell in California and my grandmother sell in Chicago. We have sold honey in 13 states — even in Puerto Rico! This year we donated more than $10,000 to the ACS and we’re hoping to do more next year. Hopefully our business will help research into the causes of cancer or just improve the life of someone with cancer.I feel like Hives for Lives is a way to honor my grandfather.

They refused my application once.” Emily answered, “No, it’s from Yale.” Quickly, Elizabeth walked downstairs. She took the letter and opened it. “Rejected again,” Elizabeth said unhappily. “Who says women can’t be doctors?”“They are fools not to accept you. You can’t let them stop you, Lizzie,” Emily said.“I won’t. I’ll apply to (申请) Geneva Medical College,” Elizabeth told her sister. As it turned out, the professors at Geneva Medical College were not fools. They allowed Elizabeth Blackwell to study medicine.In 1848, a year before Elizabeth would graduate, a typhoid epidemic (伤寒流行病) broke out in New York. Elizabeth wrote to Emily. “There’s an outbreak (爆发) of typhoid, and I am going to help. It is dangerous, so if I should not s urvive, please do me the honor of studying medicine yourself.”Emily replied, “Encouraged by your dream and success, I have decided to study in medical school, as well.”Having survived the disease, Elizabeth tried to set up a private medical practice. “I graduated first in my class but no one believes a woman can be a good doctor,” she said to Emily one day. “All I hear is that doctors should be men, while women should stay home to cook and clean.”Emily said worriedly, “I will gradua te in June with my medical degree. What shall we do?” Elizabeth thought for a while and replied, “There’s a big house in the poor part of our town. We can practice medicine there for people who couldn’t afford care.”Soon with the help of some friends, Elizabeth and Emily bought the house and opened a hospital for poor women and children. “We’ll have an all-women staff (员工),” Elizabeth said. “And later, we’ll add a medical college for women!” Emily added. At last, Elizabeth realized her dream of being a doctor.4. The underlined word “Rejected” in the first paragraph can be best replaced by _____.A. RefusedB. PraisedC. ChangedD. Accepted5.

It attracts over 130,000 people every year, who join in the three-day party to celebrate the summer solstice, the longest day of the year.Glastonbury Festival has been held on Worthy Farm in Somerset since 1970. This year, all sorts of singers and bands were there, from the likes of Beyoncé, Jessie J, to my favourite — Paolo Nutini, who I really wish I could have met!We drove straight into one of the muddiest (泥泞的) Glastonbury Festivals ever! We came to our camp site, carrying enough clothes for a weekend of extreme weather conditions, and spent an hour or so putting up the tent. On the second day it began to rain and didn’t stop for the rest of the day. We sat in the tent waiting for it to s top, and after several hours we realized that it wouldn’t. When the need for food became too strong we put on boots and raincoats and made our way across many muddy fields.There is something for everyone at the festival — my favourite place is the Circus Field, which is full of interactive (互动的) performances. Also, I love the Kidz Field, where famous CBBC stars perform, and where you can get your face painted then run around on a climbing frame (框架) with dragons.9.

AShould parents ever hit their children?Research suggests many of us are likely to respond “no”, an d public support for spanking (打屁股)has been falling over the years.But surveys also show that 75 percent to nearly 90 percent of parents admit to spanking their child at least once.I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect, and my parents often turned to physical punishment.And, no, I don' t feel I was damaged by it.Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children.But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer.Two years ago, Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents used physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive.Murray Straus, professor at the University of New Hampshire in America, has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades.He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers.It may be that children with lower IQs were more likely to get spanked, but the punishment may have been counterproductive (反作用的)to their mental development, as well.Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks (用巴掌打)on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit.Last year, Marjorie Gunnoe, a psychologist at Calvin College, studied teens who have never spanked.There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physically punished.Gunnoe’s research suggests they don' t turn out any better than those who were sometimes spanked.There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers (脾气).But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline without ever turning to physical punishment.21.According to the first three paragraphs, the author was probably hit by her parents when____________.A.they were dissatisfied with her gradeB.she showed no respect for the elderC.they cannot control their temperD.their discipline turns out to be not strict enough22.According to Murray Straus, children who are physically punished ____ __.A.are less aggressive toward others when they get olderB.have slower physical developmentC.benefit from occasional spankingD.may develop lower IQs than their peer23.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?A.40 percent of children grow up without ever being spankedB.Children who suffer less physical punishment are better studentsC.Occasional open-handed spanking on the bottom are mentally harmfulD.Researchers disagree over whether smacking is mentally harmful to childrenBHave you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy .After all ,you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy .However ,they sing most of the time for a very different reason .Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a “territory” is ?A territory is an area that an animal ,usually the male, claims(声称)as its own .Only he and his family are welcome there .No other families of the same species are welcome .Y our yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome . If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you ,you might shout .Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so ,you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him .A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time ,especially at nesting(筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time ,whether he can see an outsider or not .This screaming is what we call a bird’s song ,and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.You can see that birds have a language all their own .Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.24.Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually .A.an expression of happiness B.a way of greetingC.an expression of anger D.a way of warning25.What is a bird’s “territory”?A.A place where families of other species are not accepted.B.An area which a bird considers to be its own .C.An area for which birds fight against each other.D.A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.26.Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?A.Because they want to invite more friends.B.Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.C.Because they want to find outsiders around.D.Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.27.How does the writer explain birds’ singing?A.By describing birds’ daily life.B.By reporting experiment results.C.By comparing birds with human beings.D.By telling a bird’s story.CEverybody has had at least one experience from which he knows the meaning of life. This time, which took place several years ago, but seems as if it just happened.On an afternoon several years ago, my brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sister’s dress and picked out a beautiful skirt. “ Jan bought this the first time we went to New York, at least 8 or 9 yearsago. She never wore it. She was savi ng it for a special occasion.” he said.I guess this was the occasion: it was the funeral of my sister, after her unexpected death.He took the shirt and put it on bed, with the other clothes we were taking to the funeral. Then he closed the drawer and turn ed to me, “Don’t ever save anything for a special occasion. Every day you’re alive is a special occasion.”I’m thinking about his words, and they’ve changed the way I live my life. I’m spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings. Whenever possible, life should be a kind of experience to enjoy, not to suffer. “Someday ”and “one of these days ”are losing their importance on my vocabulary. If it’s worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now.Ever since that day, I have been trying very hard not to put off, hold back or save anything that would add laughter and color to our lives. Every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that every day, every minute, every breath, truly is a gift. So cherish every day and find the true meaning of your life.28.Why did Jan buy the beautiful skirt but didn’t wear it ?A.She waited for a special occasion to wear it on.B.She wanted to keep it for someone else.C.She saved it till she grew up.D.She would give it to herself as a gift some day.29.From this experience, the author learns that_______.A.everybody can have a happy life through effortsB.every day in our lives is worth cherishingC.enjoying ourselves is the most important thing in our livesD.everybody will have some things left to do after his death30.What does the author write this passage for?A.To tell people to cherish every day and find the meaning of life.B.To explain the true meaning of his brother-in-law’s words.C.To show how to make good use of everyday in life.D.To encourage people to waste time and enjoy themselves in life.31.What’s the best title for this passage?A.What Is the Meaningful Life likeB.My Sister JanC.Every Day IS a GiftD.The Most Important Time in Your LifeDThe government of Norway is planning to build an unusual storage center on an island in the Arctic Ocean. The place would be large enough to hold about two million seeds. The goal is to present all crops known to scientists. The British magazine New Scientist published details of the plan last month. The st ructure will be designed to protect the world’s food supply against nuclear war, climate change and other possible threats. It will be built in a mountain on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen. The mountain is less than one thousand kilometers from the North Pole, the northernmost position on earth.An international group called the Global Crop Diversity Trust is working on the project. The director of the group, Cary Fowler, spoke to New Scientist. He said the project would let the world rebuild agr iculture if, in his word, “the worst came to the worst”. Norway is expected to start work next year. The project is expected to cost three million dollars. Workers will drill(钻孔)deep in the side of a sandstone mountain. Temperatures in the area never rise above 0ºC. The seeds will be protected behind walls a meter thick and high-security door.The magazine report says the collection will represent the products of ten thousand yearsof farming. Most of the seeds at first will come from collections at seed banks in Africa, Asia and Latin America. To last a long time, seeds need to be kept in very low temperatures. Workers will not be present all the time. But they plan to replace the air inside the storage space each winter. Winter temperatures on the island are about eighteen degrees below 0ºC. The cold weather would protect the seeds even if the air could not be replaced.Mr. Fowler says the proposed structure will be the world’s safest gene bank. He says the plant seeds would only be used when all other seeds are gone for some reason. Norway first put forward the idea in the 1980s. But safety concerns delayed the plan. At that time, the Soviet Union was meeting in Rome of the Food and Agriculture Organization.32.The project is meant to ______.A.increase the world’s food output in the futureB.carry out some scientific experiments on plant genesC.build an exhibition centre of the world’s plant seedsD.protect crop seeds from dying out in case of possible disasters33.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the above passage?A.The government of Norway will perform the project alone.B.Seeds to be collected there were produced ten thousand years ago.C.Spitsbergen is chosen because it is free of the nuclear war forever.D.Temperature is a major consideration when choosing the storage place.34.We can infer from the text that _______.A.Norway had meant to build the storage centre about 30 years before.B.The storage center will greatly promote world agricultureC.People will get newly-developed seeds from the center every year.D.There haven’t been any seed storage centers in the world before.35.What is probably the best title of the passage?A.The Best Place to Store SeedsB.Noah’s Ark(诺亚方舟)of Plant Seeds in PlanC.Concerns of World Food SupplyD.A New Way to Feed the World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。

The fact was that I was found to have ADIID(注意力缺陷多动障碍). Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but couldn’t . So, I was k illing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics. Currently, I’m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your video. This has given me a purpose.Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public , I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job—Data Analyst—this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors.Thank you. You’ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because I’m doing something, not because someone told me I was doing good. I feel whole. This is why you’re saving my life.Yours,Tanis25. why did’t Tanis go to college after high school?A.She had learned enough about computer scienceB.

They settled in at a comfortable East Side cafe and within minutes, another customer was approaching their table.“Hey, aren’t you from Mississippi?”the elegant, white-haired writer remembered being asked by the stranger. “I’m from Mississippi too.”Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.“They began telling me all the news of Mississippi,” Welty said. “I didn’t know what my New York friends were thinking.”Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Welty’s new friends immediately sent a waiter to find a cab.Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a Mississippi state reunion (团聚).“My friends said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’” Welty added. “And I said: ‘Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’”Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked pleased with this explanation.“I don’t make them up,” she said of the characters in her fiction these last 50 or so years. “I don’t have to.”Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Welty’s people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or a train, she hears only a fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story.28 What happened when Welty was with her friends at the cafe?A. Two strangers joined her.B. Her childhood friends came in.C. A heavy rain ruined the dinner.D. Some people held a party there.29. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 6 refers to Welty’s .A. readersB. partiesC. friendsD. stories30. What can we learn about the characters in Welty’s fiction?A. They live in big cities.B. They are mostly women.C. They come from real life.D. They are pleasure seekers.三。

Henry get most material for his short stories?A. His life inside the prison.B. The newspaper articles he wrote.C. The city and people of New York.D. His exciting early life as a boy.BWhen I was a kid, I was close to my dad, but as I grew older, my dad and I grew further apart. We always had totally different opinions. He thought that college was a waste of time, but for me it was important to finish college. He wanted me to work my way to the top as he had done in his field, but I wanted a different life. There was a time when we did not talk with each other.A few months ago, I heard that my 84-year-old dad was in poor health. When he called and asked whether I could move from Colorado back to Tennessee to help him, I knew he was seriously ill. I am his only child and so it was time to meet my father’s requireme nt.Two weeks after moving back, we bought a boat and started fishing again. Fishing was one of the few things that we did while I was young and that we both enjoyed. It is strange but true that as we are fishing we are able to put things that have kept us apart for so many years behind us. We are able to talk about things that we have never talked about before. Fishing has been healing(治愈) the old wounds that have kept us apartIt is not important how many fish we catch. It is about enjoying the relationship that we have not had for years. I’m 62 and he is 84. When we are on the lake fishing, it is like two kids enjoying life. It is far better to find a way to put the unhappy past behind. I am so lucky to spend the happy time with my father in his last years. Now my heart is filled with love. A smile always graces my lips.16. The writer and his father became further apart because________.A. they had different views on thingsB. they lived very far from each otherC. they only communicated by phoneD. they seldom went to see each other17. What made the writer come back to Tennessee?A. Because his father invited him to go fishing.B. Because he decided to live in a different city.C. Because his father is ill and needs caring.D. Because he regretted being rude to his father.18. For the writer, fishing with his old father _________ .A. helps cure his father’s diseaseB. is a good way to get close to natureC. makes him realize the importance of exerciseD. offers a chance for them to communicate19. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The writer’s car is always breaking down.B. Father intended me to be a fisherman.C. I was unwilling to come back.D. Father used to think it was useless to attend college.20. What can be the best title for the text?A. Forgiving Is DifficultB. Fishing Brings Us TogetherC. Memories of Old DaysD. My Beloved FatherCLiving and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.Communication begins with the concerns of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore everyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达)of information, correspondence (通信), means of communication: a letter or a message”. To maintain (保持) a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note.When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away onlymakes the situation worse.This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, not when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor(因素) here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.Communication isn’t a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, telling the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to communication.21. In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is ________ than with children.A. more difficultB. easierC. more uninterestingD. more interesting22. The main idea of the second paragraph is ________.A. the importance of friendshipB. to make your feeling known to othersC. the importance of communicationD. the disagreement between generations23. When parents and children are in communication, the key to a happy relationship is that ________.A. children should always obey their parentsB. they should be equalC. parents play the leading partD. both make the opposite know their feelings24. The example in this passage proves that ________.A. Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to herB. Sophie is very polite to her parentsC. Sophie did well in explaining her being lateD. communication is the solution(解决办法) to misunderstanding25. All the following statements are correct except “_______”.A. If you don’t agree with others, you’d better let them knowB. It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothingC. If you are not able to communicate, walk awayD. Communication is a two-way deal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。

丰城中学2016-2017学年上学期周练试卷(1)高一(1)班命题:邹虹审题:高一英语备课组2016-9-21第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40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。
A ★My family had always been close and lucky. No one died and no one was sick. We were all living a happy life until my grandfather had cancer. No matter how much I told myself he might not die, somehow I still felt as if it was a death sentence. He fought so hard but died at 63. I honestly didn’t know how I dealt with. I never cried alone. I had the support of my family and teachers. I just remembered my grandfather’s wish that we should celebrate his life.That’s how we came up with the idea for Hives (蜂房) for Lives —a business my sister and I started where all the profits (赢利) go to the American Cancer Society (ACS). During our first year we donated (捐赠) more than $2,000 to the ACS. The next year a man who belonged to my grandparents’ “bee club” gave his honey to us, and our little business grew. We sold at wine festivals, schools, and to anyone else who would buy! We had my uncle sell in California and my grandmother sell in Chicago. We have sold honey in 13 states — even in Puerto Rico! This year we d onated more than $10,000 to the ACS and we’re hoping to do more next year. Hopefully our business will help research into the causes of cancer or just improve the life of someone with cancer.I feel like Hives for Lives is a way to honor my grandfather. Honor his love, his life, and his strength. With Hives for Lives reminding me of my grandfather every day, I feel as if I can move on in life, that he will always be alive in my heart and memories. It made me deal with his death, because I felt like I had truly honored his wish of celebrating his life.1. From the first paragraph, we can learn ____.A. the author’s grandfather had been ill for yearsB. the author hadn’t thought his grandfather would dieC. the author showed little love towards his grandfatherD. the author’s grandfather had tried to fight against his disease2. The purpose of the author’s starting Hives for Lives is NOT for _____.A. improving his lifeB. honoring his grandfatherC. helping do research for cancerD. supporting people with cancer3. What would be the best title for the text?A. Turning sadness into hopeB. The meaning of lifeC. To my grandfatherD. Living with cancerB ★“Lizzie, there’s a letter for you!” Emily called up the stairs to her sister. Elizabeth looked down. “Is it from Harvard? They refused my application once.” Emily answered, “No, it’s from Yale.” Quickly, Elizabeth walked downstairs. She took the le tter and opened it. “Rejected again,” Elizabeth said unhappily. “Who says women can’t be doctors?”“They are fools not to accept you. You can’t let them stop you, Lizzie,” Emily said.“I won’t. I’ll apply to (申请) Geneva Medical College,” Eliza beth told her sister. As it turned out, the professors at Geneva Medical College were not fools. They allowed Elizabeth Blackwell to study medicine.In 1848, a year before Elizabeth would graduate, a typhoid epidemic (伤寒流行病) broke out in New York. E lizabeth wrote to Emily. “There’s an outbreak (爆发) of typhoid, and I am going to help. It is dangerous, so if I should not survive, please do me the honor of studying medicine yourself.”Emily replied, “Encouraged by your dream and success, I have decided to study in medical school, as well.”Having survived the disease, Elizabeth tried to set up a private medical practice. “I graduated first in my class but no one believes a woman can be a good doctor,” she said to Emily one day. “All I hear is that doctors should be men, while women should stay home to cook and clean.”Emily said worriedly, “I will graduate in June with my medical degree. What shall we do?” Elizabeth thought for a while and replied, “There’s a big house in the poor part of our town. We can practice medicine there for people who couldn’t afford care.”Soon with the help of some friends, Elizabeth and Emily bought the house and opened a hospital for poor women and children. “We’ll have an all-women staff (员工),” Elizabeth said. “And later, we’ll add a medical college for women!” Emily added. At last, Elizabeth realized her dream of being a doctor.4. The underlined word “Rejected” in the first paragraph can be best replaced by _____.A. RefusedB. PraisedC. ChangedD. Accepted5. Hearing Elizabeth’s words about the letter from Yale, Emily felt _____.A. excitedB. calmC. satisfiedD. angry6. In 1848, Elizabeth wrote to Emily to _____.A. persuade Emily to come to help the sickB. ask Emily to study medicine if she diedC. warn Emily the danger of typhoid epidemicD. tell Emily she would graduate from college7. We can learn from the text that Elizabeth _____.A. received strong support from her sisterB. refused to go to study at Yale UniversityC. founded a medical college after graduationD. was finally accepted by Harvard after her efforts8. Which of the following can best be used to describe Elizabeth?A. Humorous.B. Honest.C. Determined.D. Careful.C ★★Glastonbury Festival, one of the pioneer festivals, is famous not only for its amazing bands, but also for its wonderful performances in many fields surrounding (围绕) the stages. It attracts over 130,000 people every year, whojoin in the three-day party to celebrate the summer solstice, the longest day of the year.Glastonbury Festival has been held on Worthy Farm in Somerset since 1970. This year, all sorts of singers and bands were there, from the likes of Beyoncé, Jessie J, to my favourite — Paolo Nutini, who I really wish I could have met!We drove straight into one of the muddiest (泥泞的) Glastonbury Festivals ever! We came to our camp site, carrying enough clothes for a weekend of extreme weather conditions, and spent an hour or so putting up the tent. On the second day it began to rain and didn’t stop for the rest of the day. We sat in the tent waiting for it to stop, and after several hours we realized that it wouldn’t. When the need for food became too strong we put on boots and raincoats and made our way across many muddy fields.There is something for everyone at the festival — my favourite place is the Circus Field, which is full of interactive (互动的) performances. Also, I love the Kidz Field, where famous CBBC stars perform, and where you can get your face painted then run around on a climbing frame (框架) with dragons.9. According to the text, Glastonbury Festival is actually a _____.A. harvest festivalB. music festivalC. film festivalD. flower festival10. What attracted the author most at this year’s festival?A. Paolo Nutini.B. CBBC stars.C. The food sold in the festival.D. The performance in the Circus Field.第二节(共10分,每题2分)根据短文内容,从文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

江西省丰城中学2016届高三上学期10月周练英语试题(1-45班) Word版含答案[ 高考]
丰城中学2014-2015学年高三上学期周练试卷英语(1--45班)命题人:左琦婧(2015.10.14 )考试时间16:10-----17:20 (重点班不做D篇)一、阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)ASport is not only physically challenging, but it can also mentally challenging. Criticism from coaches,parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has showed that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents’ and coaches’ criticis ms to heart and find a flaw in themselves.Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other l ife lessons. In today’s youth sport setting, young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find fault with youngsters’ performances. Positive reinforcement should be provided in spite of the outcome. Research shows that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.1. According to the passage sport is positive for young people in that _____.A. it can help them learn more about societyB. it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselvesC. it can provide them with valuable experiencesD. it enables them to find flaws in themselves2. According to the passage parents and coaches should _____.A. help children to win every gameB. enable children to understand the positive aspect of sportsC. pay more attention to letting children enjoy sportsD. train children to deal with stress3. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is _____.A. to emphasize the importance of positive reinforcement to childrenB. to persuade young children not to worry about criticismC. to discuss the skill of combing criticism with encouragementD. to teach young athletes how to avoid burnoutBDo successful businessmen need an office? Increasingly the answer seems to beno.Chris Ward, author of the book Out of Office explains how President Barack Obam a’s first inauguration (就职) speech was written by 27-year-old Jon Favreau sitting in Starbucks; how Richard Tait, creator of Cranium, started the board game in a coffee shop; how Michael Acton Smith invented the children’s virtual world Moshi Monsters in his local Caffè Nero; and how JK Rowling, the novelist behind Harry Potter, believes a café is the best place to write.It is a convincing view, and for basic start-ups it makes much more sense to work from home and public spaces such as cafés than renting an expensive office. Offices are hard to find, costly to decorate and involve much tiring administration. Moreover, by staying independent you avoid the misery of a daily commute(往返上下班), which for many is the worst part of a job.Thanks to mobile communications, WiFi and cloud storage, together with the increasing heavy-duty equipment such as photocopiers, fax machines and desktop PCs, the traditional office is becoming redundant(多余的) for many sorts of organizations and workers. Of course, factory managers, surgeons, chefs and industrial chemists are still tied to special locations. But many of us – from software engineers and copywriters to architects and fashion designers – can operate almost anywhere. That freedom, and a willingness to adapt, can make one’s career more enjoyable and, sometimes, more efficient.4. The second paragraph mainly wants to tell us__________.A. Obama didn’t write his inauguration speech by himselfB. People don’t have to work in an officeC. A café is the best place to writeD. Many writers like to write in a coffee shop5. Which of the following careers is tied to special locations?A. Software engineers.B. Copywriters.C. Surgeons.D. Fashion designers.6. The traditional office is becoming redundant due to the following EXCEPT_____.A. mobile communicationsB. WiFi and cloud storageC. heavy-duty equipmentD. the misery of a daily commute7. What can we infer from the text?A. Many people hate commuting daily.B. The tradition office will no longer exist.C. Working in public places will reduce efficiency.D. Chefs can work anywhere.CBlind tasting is a very strange activity. Contrary to what many imagine, it has nothing to do with blindfolds. It involves tasting a wine without seeing the label and it can deliver shocking surprises. I tasted seven champagnes(香槟) blind with a group of professionals recently. There was a shock when they discovered the wine most of them preferred carried a label they regarded as their least favorite. That sort of result is especially common with champagne, the most image-driven rather than quality-driven wine of all. But it happens all the time when wine is tasted blind.Because I’m intere sted in how wines really taste instead of how I think they should, I taste wine blind as often as I can, especially when assessing similar young wines. Butblind tasting when you know absolutely nothing about the wine in front of you is something completely different. The most difficult Master of Wine exams include three sessions during which you have a dozen glasses in front of you and nothing more helpful than a printed exam paper asking you to identify each wine as closely as possible, and assess its quality.Now that the MW is behind me, I taste wine completely blind only very rarely, and never in public. So my blind tastings these days are round the dinner table with good friends and once a year when I act as a judge, with Hugh Johnson, in the Oxford vs Cambridge wine-tasting competition. This is the most extraordinary match, always held before the Boat Race but taken just as seriously nowadays. This year’s taste-off took place at the end of last month, as usual in the Oxford and Cambridge Club on Pall Mall in London.8. Which of the following is true about Blind tasting?A. Blind tasting is the professional way to identify a wine.B. Blind tasting usually has the right result.C. Blind tasting means tasting a wine with one’s eyes covered.D. Blind tasting is tasting a wine without seeing the label.9. Why did the professionals get shocked at the result of their blind tasting?A. They got all the results correctly.B. They didn’t recognize their favorite at all.C. The writer made no mistakes.D. Champagnes can not be tasted blind.10. Which of the following interests the writer most?A. Assessing young wines.B. Master of wine exams.C. Tasting wine blind in public.D. Oxford v Cambridge wine-tasting competition.11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The Boat Race is taken more seriously than the wine race.B. The Oxford v Cambridge wine-tasting competition is held annually.C. I didn’t act as a judge last year.D. Pall Mall is chosen as the competition place for the first time.DBangkok has become the world's top tourist destination, with 15.98 million visitors projected to visit Thailand's capital city this year, according to the third annual Global Destination Cities Index released by MasterCard on Monday. Based on data MasterCard collected from governments, central banks, related public agencies and airlines so far this year, the projection (预测) for the entire year says Bangkok is surpassing London, the previous holder of the top place, by a very narrow margin.Monday's report marked the first time any Asian city has been projected to be the top-ranked tourist destination. London came in second, with 15.96 million visitors expected in 2013, and Paris, third, with 13.92 million visitors. MasterCard looked at 132 cities.Other Asian cities that made it to the Top-20 Global Destination Cities in 2013 include Singapore at number four, with 11.75 million visitors; Kuala Lumpur at number eight, with 9.2 million visitors; Hong Kong at number nine, with 8.72 million visitors;Seoul at number 11, with 8.19 million visitors; Shanghai at number 14, with 6.5 million visitors, Tokyo at number 16, with 5.8 million visitors, and Taipei, with 5.19 million visitors.The study found that Bangkok is experiencing a large increase in its number of tourists in 2013, up 9.8% from 2009. That compares to New York's increase at 5.0% and London's at 3.8%. Paris, meanwhile, saw a small dip in its number of tourists (negative 0.7%).Caroline Lledo, who was visiting Bangkok from France, said Thailand has many offerings. “We like culture and the people are so nice. We also love shopping here,” Ms. Lledo said. MasterCard Worldwide's global economic adviser Yuwa Hedrick-Wong cited(引用)overall value for money spent for why Bangkok is attractive. That is true for Thailand overall as well.12. From the passage we can know that___________.A. Bangkok defeated London by a wide marginB. there are 15.96 million visitors visiting London in 2013C. London Topped List of World's Tourist Destinations in 2012D. Paris is experiencing an increase in its number of tourists13. How many Asian cities have made it to the Top-20 Global Destination Cities in 2013?A. Seven.B. Eight.C. Nine.D. Ten.14. What attracts visitors to Thailand?A. Culture and natural scenery.B. People and buildings.C. Shopping and environment.D. Culture, people and shopping.15. What can we know about MasterCard?A. MasterCard collected data from private agencies.B. It is the third time that MasterCard has released the Index.C. Caroline Lledo was MasterCard’s adviser.D. MasterCard surveyed 131 cities.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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

丰城中学2015-2016学年上学期高一英语第九次周练试题(尖子班)命题人:甘云龙审题人:高一英语备课组(2016. 5. 11)第一节:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)AThe American tradition of “trickortreating” probably dates back to the early All Souls' Day parades(游行) in England. During the festivities, poor citizens would beg for food and families would give them pastries called “soul cakes” in return for their promise to pray for the family's dead relatives.The distribution of soul cakes was encouraged by the church as a way to replace the ancient practice of leaving food and wine for wandering spirits. The practice, which was referred to as “goingasouling” was eventually taken up by children who would visit the houses in their neighborhood and be given apples, food, and money.The tradition of dressing in costume for Halloween has both European and Celtic roots. Hundreds of years ago, winter was an uncertain and frightening time. Food supplies often ran low and, for the many people afraid of the dark, the short days of winter were full of constant worry. On Halloween, when it was believed that ghosts came back to the earthly world, people thought that they would encounter ghosts if they left their homes. To avoid being recognized by these ghosts, people would wear masks when they left their homes after dark so that the ghosts would mistake them for fellow spirits. On Halloween, to keep ghosts away from their houses, people would place bowls of food outside their homes to appease the ghosts and prevent them from attempting to enter.21.What is the passage mainly talking about?A.The root of an English festival, All Souls' Day.B.The root of some American traditions on Halloween.C.Why do children go to houses and ask for “treat”?D.Why do people like to dress up for Halloween?22.On early All Souls' Day, “soul cakes” were given away in the hope that ________.A.the poor people would pray for their dead lovesB.the food could save some poor people's livesC.the church would help them go to heavenD.the poor wouldn't break their houses23.What is “goingasouling” origin ally intended for?A.Children. B.The church. C.The poor. D.The ghosts.24.On Halloween, people would dress up and put food outside in order to________.A.make friends with their dead relativesB.attract their dead relatives back homeC.make the wandering spirits pleasedD.keep out spirits for their own safetyBIce Hotel Quebec, located 30 minutes west of Downtown Quebec City, Canada, is only open during the winter season.

I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama's Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was , in his w ords, “a brilliantly(精彩地)written book”. However, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all .I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't. In the World Book Day's “Report on Guilty Secrets”,Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading ,and as I'm not one to lie too often (I'd hate to be caught out ), I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten .But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one ,George Orwell's 1984.I think it's really brilliant.The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky (I haven't read him, but haven't lied about it either) and Herman Melville.Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in-depth!But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J.K. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words).Forty-two percentof people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I'll come clean; I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).28.How did the author find his friend a book liar?A.By judging his manner of speaking. B.By looking into his background.C.By mentioning a famous name. D.By discussing the book itself. 29.Which of the following is a “guilty secret”according to the World Book Day report?A.Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.B.42% of people pretended to have read 1984.C.The author admitted having read 9 books.D.Dreams From My Father is hardly read.30.By lying about reading ,a person hopes to ________.A.control the conversation B.appear knowledgeableC.learn about the book D.make more friends31.What is the author's attitude to 58%of readers?A.Favorable B.Uncaring. C.Doubtful. D.Friendly.DA Southampton University team found that people who were vegetarians (素食者)by 30 had recorded five IQ points higher on average at the age of 10. Researchers said it could explain why people with a higher IQ were healthier as a vegetarian diet was linked to lower heart disease and obesity rates. The study of 8,179 people was reported in the British Medical Journal.Twenty years after the IQ tests were carried out in 1970, 366 of the participants said they were vegetarians -although more than 100 reported eating either fish or chicken.Men who were vegetarians had an IQ score of 106, compared with 101 for non-vegetarians; while female vegetarians averaged 104, compared with 99 for non-vegetarians. There was no difference in the IQ scores, between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken.Researchers said the findings were partly related to better education and higher class, but itremained statistically significant after adjusting for these factors.Vegetarians were more likely to be female, to be of higher social class and to have higher academic or vocational qualifications(资格) than non-vegetarians. However, these differences were not reflected in their annual income, which was similar to that of non-vegetarians.Lead researcher Catharine Gale said, The findings that children with greater intelligence are more likely to report being vegetarians as adults, together with the evidence on the potential benefits of a vegetarian diet on heart health, may help to explain why a higher IQ in childhood or adolescence is linked with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease in adult life.But Dr Frankie Phillips of the British Dietetic Association said,“It is like the chicken and egg. Do people become vegetarians because they have a very high IQ or is it just that they are clever enough to be more aware of health issues?”32.What's the result of the research mentioned in the text?A.Children with a higher IQ are less likely to have heart disease later in life.B.Intelligent children tend to belong to higher social class later in life.C.Intelligent children are more likely to become vegetarians later in life.D.Children with a healthier heart tend to have a higher IQ later in life.33.It was found in the research that ________.A.most of the participants became vegetarians 20 years after the IQ tests were carried out.B.vegetarians who ate fish or chicken were of similar intelligence with strict vegetarians.C.female vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non -vegetarians.D.vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non-vegetarians.34.Catharine Gale talked about “being vegetarians” in a(n) ________ way.A.doubtful B.favorableC.negative D.objective35.What's the best title for the text?A.Get more IQ points! B.Be a vegetarian, please!C.A high IQ is linked to being a vegetarian D.Vegetarian diet cuts heart risk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。
