All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. Little was known about science then, and one kind of school could teach everything that was known about the world. When the students 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 teaching 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. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities.

After more than one hundred years, the Games got back to their home----Athens, the year 2004.When people have the Olympic Games, they always make an emblem (会徽). 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 is also like a runner or a dancer.

A runner and a dancerCRecently, a professor of philosophy (哲学) in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. 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 value 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 you 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 important 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 some money________.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。

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 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. Honor hislove, 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 figh t 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 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. 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, 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. 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。

And I want my mom to want me close when she is sad and upset, instead ofignoring me. At last but not least, ensure that I can make them all happy and entertain them. God, Idon 't ask you for much. I just want to live like our TV. ”At that moment the husband said, “ My God, poor kid. What horrible parents! The teache ”rlooked up at him and said, “ That composition is our son' s. ” 11.

Don ' t mnetion it. s teachers.nts in their lives. As we rely too much on tech no logy in stead of our brains, many people have lost three basic abilities.The first skill many people have lost is remembering phone numbers. Because phone nu mbers are stored in smartph one con tacts, there 'now no n eed to dial a nu mber or look at it agai n. This is fine un til you n eed to call some one for help, only to find your phone is not around.And some people may also have lost their sense of direct ion because some apps can guide people any where they want. People get so depe ndent on them that whe n they can ' utse their smartpho nes, they get lost and an xious.But the worst lost skills may be social on es, mea ning that some people are beco ming sociallyin ept (无能的).People ofte n bury themselves in their smartph on es. As we -mindeel too abse ntby what' happening in the virtual (虚拟的)some of us have lost conversational skills and sometimes can ' t even tell whether a person is happy or not.Last August, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, studied 51 studentsaged 11 and 12 who had over five hours ' scree n time every day. Their task was to tell the emoti onsof 48 pictures of faces that were happy, sad, angry or scared.The childre n made an average of 14.02 mistakes at the begi nning. But after a five-day campwithout electro nic products, they made on ly 9.41 mistakes on average.Luckily, people still have a cha nee to get these abilities back. You should try to keep yourparents ' numbiersnind for emergencies. You should also pay more attention to street sig ns and stores, which will help you to draw a mind map and stop you from gett ing lost. And the easiest soluti on to social skill loss is to take a break from electr onic products.15. The un derl ined sentence in the sec ond paragraph implies that ___ .A. you are able to turn to others for helpB. others are able to call you any time and any whereC. others are un able to get in touch with you by smartph oneD. you are un able to con tact others without your smartph one16. The experime nt shows that without electr onic products, one could ____ .A. recog nize more facial expressi ons correctlyB. lose the sense of direction frequentlyC. tell different emotions immediatelyD. tell more pictures of faces easily17. Overusing smartphones, people will probably ____ .A. have no sense of numbersB. fail to find their destinationC. lose face-to-face communication skillsD. weaken their senses of hearing and sight18. What s'the writer ' s a t toitwuadreds electronic products? _ .A. Objective.B. Critical.C. Supportive.D. OptimisticCWhen I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering (递送); milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn 't take my eyes off the coin changer (自动换币器) fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note —“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery ”—and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk (酸奶)would magicallyappear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn 'fr t eeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted in on the back porch (门廊). Every so often my son 's friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.19. Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer to _______ .A. show his magical powerB. pay for the deliveryC. satisfy his curiosityD. please his mother20. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy 'house?A. He wan ted to have tea there.B. He was a respectable pers on.C. He was treated as a family member.D. He was fully trusted by the family member.21. Why does home milk delivery no Ion ger exist?A. nobody wants to be a milkman now.B. It has been driven out of the market.C. It 'service is gett ing worse.D. It is forbidden by law.22. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A. He missed the good old days.B. He wan ted to tell in teresti ng stories.C. He n eeded it for his milk bottles.D. He pla nted flowers in it.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。

Your desk is just about big enough for a cup of coffee;there’s no desk lamp; the stationery (办公用品)is a couple of sheets of headed notepaper; and a pen doesn't work.Printing has to be arranged with the Reception, and when you try to use your cell phone you find that it won't work in Canada.Well,Harmony is different.Just tell us in advance what you're going to need,and we'll see that it's waiting for you when you arrive.There will be a printer in your room if you want one, and a cell phone that really works.All you have to pay for is the calls you make.We can also arrange a room for business meetings, and,using the verybest employment agency,even supply a secretary to take minutes.All we ask is a few days’ notice.All our—rooms are of the same high standard, and we guarantee not to increase prices in the next twelve months.But book now, because we're already filling up fast,and we’d hate 1:0 disappoint you.Harmony—the hotel you ye always wanted; but never been able to find—until now21.The advertisement is intended for ______.A.airline staff B.business peopleC.secretaries D.tourists22.What must the guest do if he wants a secretary?A.Inform the hotel in advance.B.Tell the Reception on arrival.C.Call an employment agency.D.Put up a notice in the hotel.23. Why is it best to book now?A.The best rooms go first.B.Prices might increase soon.C.It ensures high standard rooms.D.Rooms may become unavailable.24.What is special about Harmony?A.It offers telephone calls for free.B.It provides printing at the Reception.C.It gives high standard information services.D.It makes arrangements to meet guests’ needs.BLumberjack ArtWhen people think of an artist, they probably do not imagine a lumberjack(伐木工人)cutting down trees with a chainsaw.Yet many lumberjacks consider themselves to be artists.Instead of patiently working on a large block of hard rock,however,lumberjack artists use chainsaws to carve their, masterpieces from wood.Wooden sculptures (雕塑)created with chainsaws are perfect examples of folk art.Everyday tools are used to create art that focuses on subjects found in nature, such as bears or other forest animals.Not all lumberjacks are artists,but some chainsaw artists have been lumberjacks.A lumberjack,who is also an artist might cut down a tree during a workday.If the stump, the bottom of the tree, is a good size,the artist might be motivated to sculpt the stump into the shape of a forest animal.The chainsaw artist might also carve other large blocks of wood.Sometimes a homeowner might cut down a tree in the yard and then hire a chainsaw artist to create an outdoor sculpture from the stump.So,this art owes its origins to everyday tasks and nature.The origins of chainsaw art may be humble (不起眼的),but the practice has expanded well beyond turning a stump into a sculpture.In some ways chainsaw artists are like traditional woodcarvers.One artist said that using chainsaws was simply more practical.This person began hiswork as a traditional woodcarver—that is,he used hand tools to .carve the wood into the shapes he wanted.To save time,he began using a chainsaw to remove some parts of the wooden block.This artist realized that the chainsaw not only cut down large pieces of wood quickly, but also produced a distinctive and beautiful pattern on—the:wood.These patterns would not be seen in other pieces of art.Eventually,the artist began using the chainsaw for nearly all of his carvings.However unusual it may seem, chainsaw art is here to stay.The final test of success for any type of art is the enthusiasm and acceptance of the public.The conclusion is: people love watching chainsaw artists work, and people love the sculptures they create.25.What do we know about chainsaw artists?A.They are originally traditional lumberjacks.B. They create masterpieces in woods and forests.C. They introduce a new concept of artists to people.D. They produce their sculptures while cutting down trees。

He was born in North Carolina in 1862. As a young boy he lived an exciting life. He did not go to school for very long, but he managed to teach himself everything he needed to know. When he was about 20 years old, O. Henry went to Texas, where he tried different jobs. He first worked on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank, when some money went missing from the bank O. Henry was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories. After he got out of prison, he went to New York and continued writing. He wrote mostly about New York and the life of the poor there. People liked his stories, because simple as the tales were, they would finish witha sudden change at the end, to the reader’s surprise.11. In which order did O. Henry do the following things?a. Lived in New York.b. Worked in a bank.c. Travelled to Texas.d. Was put in prison.e. Had a newspaper Job.f.

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。

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. The hotel is made entirely of ice. The two galleries at the Ice Hotel Quebec feature events such as ice painting and ice sculpture(冰雕) competitions.Things to DoGuests have a choice of different winter vacation activities, including cross-country skiing, ice skating, dog sledding (狗拉雪橇), ice fishing and sliding(滑行).

The walls at Ice Hotel Quebec are four feet thick and allow the hotel to keep a temperature of -2℃ to -5℃.The furniture at the hotel is made of snow and ice, including the beds. The beds are equipped with a thick faom mattress(泡沫床垫)and an extra thick sleeping bag. That is enough to prevent you from catching a cold.Vacation TipIce Hotel Quebec offers 30-minute guided public tours daily from 1030am to 4:30pm.

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。

So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair andreading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure.Herpin died at the age of 94.36.
