2020年高一英语下学期期末试卷(有答案)
AThe world has lost one of its brightest stars. British physicist Stephen Hawking died on March 14,at the age of 76.Hawking is probably the world's most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has devoted his whole life to digging into the beginning (and the end)of the universe."My goal is simple,” Hawking once said."It is to completely understand the universe, why it is as it is and why it is there at all."Hawkins’s achievements are even greater if you think about his disability. When he was 21, Hawking caught a bad illness that slowly stopped him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼).Later he sat on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moved two fingers to control the computer's mouse. He selected his words from the screen, which were then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器）.“I have had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said."Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work."Though Hawking was a disabled man, he made great achievements. He received many awards and prizes for his work during his lifetime. This included winning the Albert Einstein Award, which stands for the highest achievement in theoretical physics.Despite the fact that he's no longer with us, his legacy will surely live on As Sajid Javid,a UK，government minister, put it, “A brief history on Earth; an eternity in the stars."21.From text we can learn________.A. Hawking is more famous than EinsteinB. Hawking is less famous than EinsteinC. Both Hawking and Einstein are very famousD. Neither Hawking nor Einstein is famous22.What does the underlined pronoun "it” in the second paragraph stand for?A. The universe.B. The earth.C. The goal.D. The black hole.23.According to the text, which of the following statements is the fact?A. Hawking received many awards and prizes except the Albert Einstein Award.B. The illness kept him from moving and talking.C. He communicated with others by speaking.D. The illness stopped him from being successfulBBelow is a selection from a popular science book.If blood is red, why are veins(静脉）blue?Actually, reins are not blue at all. They are more of a clear, yellowish color. Although blood looks red when it's outside the body, when it's sitting in a-vein near the surface of the skin, it’s more f a dark reddish purple color. At the right depth, these blood-filled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin, making them look blue by comparison.Which works harder, your heart or your brain?That kind of depends on whether you are busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise, and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But, in the long run four brain probably tips it, because even when you'resitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart, and it takes Tour to five times as much blood to feed it.Do old people shrink as they age?shrinking all over. They simply lose height as their spine(脊柱）becomes shorter and more curved due to disuse and the effects, of gravity(重力).Many(but not all)men and women do lose height as they get older. Men lose an average of 3-4 cm in height as they age, while women may lose 5 cm or more. If you live to be 200 years old, would you keep shrinking till you were, like 60 cm tall, like a little boy again? No, because old people don't really shrink! It is not that they are growing backwards- their legs, arms and backbones getting shorter. When they do get shorter, it's because the spine has shortened a little. Or, more often, become more bait and curved.Why does spinning make you dizzy(眩晕的)?Because your brain gets confused between what you're seeing and what you're feeling. The brain senses that you're spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear, which work together with your eyes to keep your vision and balance stable. But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control, and your brain thinks you're moving while you're not!Where do feelings and emotions come from?Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain area-from mice to dogs, cats, and humans. So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear, pain an pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other, newer bits of the brain, we feel more complex, emotions than any other animal on the planet.If exercise wears you out, how can it be good for you?Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them. And as far as your body is concerned，it’s “use it, or lose it"! It's not that exercise makes you healthy; it's more that a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease.24. What is the color of blood in a vein near the surface of the skin?A. BlueB. Light yellowC. RedD. Dark reddish purple25. Why do some old people look a little shrunken as they age?A. Because their spine is in active use.B. Because they are more easily affected by gravity.C. Because they keep growing backwards.D. Because their spine becomes more bent.26. Which of the following statements about our brain is true?A. In the long run, our brain probably works harder than our heart.B. When our brain senses the spinning, we will fell dizzy.C. The brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.D. Our feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.27. What is the main purpose of the selection?A. To give advice on how to stay healthy.B. To provide information about our body.C. To challenge new findings in medical research.D. To report the latest discoveries in medical science.Companies BestShine United(Madison, Wisconsin)In the past five years, this Wisconsin-based advertising agency has shared more than $500 in profits, with its employees through the company's ShineShares program. The agency partnered with the university of Wisconsin's oncology department to develop the Ride, a biking event that benefits cancer research .Employees also get snacks every day," Beer Thirty" on Thursdays, and, Summer Fridays, a program that lets employees leave at noon.GroundFloor Media(Denver, Colorado)The key for workers at this midsize public relations firm in. Denver is that employees work anytime, anywhere Headquarters are in a former warehouse downtown, near Coors Field.

They have training programs.Traffic jam and cities, it seems, go hand in hand Everyone complains about being stuck in traffic, but, like the weather, no-one seems to do anything about it. In particular, traffic engineers, transportation planners, and public officials responsible for transportation systems in large cities are, frequently criticized for failing to solve traffic jam.But is traffic jam a sign of failure? Long lines at restaurants or theater' box offices are seen as signs of success. Should transportation systems be viewed any differently? I think we should recognize that traffic jam is an unpreventable by-product of successful- cities, and view the "traffic problem” in a different light.Traffic jam occurs Where there are lots of people but limited spaces. Culturally and economically successful cities have the worst traffic problems while decaying cities don't have much traffic. New York and Los Angeles are America's most crowded cities. But if you want access to, major brokerage houses(经纪）,you will find them easier to reach in crowded New York than in, any other large cities. And if your company needs access to post-production film editors or satellite-guidance engineers, you will reach them more quickly through the crowded freeways of LA than through less crowded roads elsewhere.Despite traffic jam, a larger number and wider variety of social communications and economic dealings can be made perfect in large, crowded cities than elsewhere. Seen in this light, traffic jam is an unfortunate result of success, not a cause of economic decline and urban decay.So while we can consider traffic jam as increasing costs on the areas of big cities, the costs of inaccessibility in uncrowned places are almost certainly greater.There is no doubt that traffic jam brings the terrible economic and environmental damage in places like Bangkok, Jakarta, and Lagos. But mobility (移动性) is far higher and traffic jam levels are far lower here in the US, even in our most crowded cities. That's why, for now, we don't see people and capital streaming of out of San Francisco and Chicago, heading for other cities in California, and Illinois.32.We can conclude from the first paragraph that________.A. traffic jam and weather are the two factors preventing the development of he big cityB. traffic jam seems to be very difficult to deal withC. if traffic engineers are their beat, traffic jam can be solvedD. public officials are always criticized for misusing their power33.According the passage, what's the author's opinion towards traffic jam?A. In traffic jam is unavoidable.B. Traffic jam is both a sign of failure and a sign of success.C. Traffic jam is the consequence of successful cities.D. For a successful city, traffic jam is not unpreventable.34.By saying "decaying"(in Para.3), the writer probably means_______.A. strong and healthyB. developingC. rich and successfulD. declining35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The traffic jam level in Jakarta is lower than that in the US.B. The traffic jam in San Francisco has resulted in-the capital becoming empty.C. Traffic jam has caused terrible bad effects in cities such as Bangkok and LagosD. California is as crowded and successful as San Francisco.第二节（共5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的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

The boy reminded him of himself at an early age. They had a lot of fun together, exploring the backyard and hiking in the nearby park. However, one weekend, Philip felt ill and had to stay in bed. David made sure to keep his grandson entertained by finding a book they could enjoy together.Before handing it to Philip, he decided to leaf through it and look back at the story. However, while looking through it, he didn't expect to see another piece of his youth, this time in the form of a photograph of him and his old friends. There were four in the picture — David, Steve, Dorothy, and Teresa. They were neighbors and often went to the beach together. In the photo, the four of them were playing on the sand.Suddenly, David wondered about the people in the photograph, curious to know where life had taken them.Philip noticed that and asked “What happened, Grandpa?” David smiled, excitedly taking the book and the photo to Philip. “Look, Philip. This is an old photo of my friends and me!” he said. “I wish I could meet them again.” Philip suggested looking for them on Facebook. Through Philip's tablet, they searched for David's friends. To Philip's surprise, they weren't on the social media platform.David decided to go to his hometown to find Steve, Dorothy, and Teresa. The town had changed a lot and he found that Dorothy's and Steve's houses were no longer there. Still hopeful, David decided to visit the last address, which was Teresa's. A young girl opened the door. “I'm sorry, young lady. I was just looking for Teresa Green, but I might have gotten the address wrong,” he said.Suddenly, the girl shouted, “Grandma, you have a visitor!”4. Why did David find a book to enjoy with Philip?A．Because Philip was entertained most by books.B．Because David intended to show Philip a picture.C．Because David remembered something in the book.D．Because Philip was not in good condition on that day.5.

What will you do with the crab shells(壳) after your big seafood dinner? Scientists have a wonderful way to deal with it. They want to use a chemical found in crab shells to make batteries(电池) greener.“We think both the biodegradability of material, or environmental impact and the performance of the batteries are important for a good product,” said Liangbing Hu, director of the University of Maryland's Center for Materials Innovation.As nowadays people care about the environment more and more and tend to use green energy and electric cars, the batteries being used for such technology also need to be eco-friendly. But the chemicals used in traditional batteries such as lithium-ion can take hundreds or thousands of years to break down. These chemicals are also harmful and easy to burn. In some cases, batteries have caught fire on aircraft, or caused fires in waste and recycling sites.The researchers in Maryland have developed batteries that use a chemical, chitin, taken from crab shells. This material is valuable, but usually thrown away as food waste from restaurants. Scientists have long been researching its various applications. Through chemical processing, chitin can finally be turned into a piece of firm gel(凝胶), which is suitable to be used for a battery. By mixing it with zinc, a bluish-white metal increasingly used to make batteries that are cheap and safe, Hu's team was able to create a renewable battery.The batteries are not easy to burn and two thirds of the battery can break down in the earth in just five months, leaving behind recyclable zinc. Antonio J Fernández Romero, a professor of materials science for energy production at the University of Cartagena in Spain, who was not involved in the st udy, said, “A new battery that is environment-friendly and cheap, is one of the more important products that must be developed in the coming years.”8. Why does the author ask the questions in Paragraph 1?A．To attract readers with a taste forB．To encourage us to explore science.seafood.C．To call on us to protect the environment. D．To introduce the eco-friendly battery.9. What does the underlined word “biodegradability ”in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．The ability to produce electricity. B．The ability to be transformed.C．The ability to be broken down. D．The ability to be folded.10. What can we infer from Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4?A．The material from crab shells is collected by restaurants.B．Chitin has been applied to many fields in different industries.C．Traditional batteries are neither safe nor environment-friendly.D．Chitin is valuable because crabs are not cheap in the restaurants.11. What's Romero's attitude towards the new battery's future?A．Positive. B．Negative. C．Objective. D．Uncertain.In 2019, 76% of people between the ages of 65 and 74, who participated in a survey, said they used social media, compared to 40% five years earlier. An increase in social media use was also seen among people aged 75 and over. A growing number of elderly people are active on social networks and are using the Internet to make calls.But how will you react when you find out your grandparents are using social media? The two most common reactions seem to be, “Oh no! They're going to see everything I post and start writing comments” or “I'm going to have to spend hours teaching them how to work this”. It's only reasonable that your grandparents should need help to create an account on Facebook. And who's a better expert than you to teach them the basics of social media? You can either bravely offer your help or regret it later. Once they have learned how to use social media, they may never get off their device again! Take Baddie Winkle, for example. This 92-year-old granny has over three million followers on Instagram, including some celebrities(名人)!You should be happy your grandparents are eager to join the digital worlds. Social media use can have a number of health benefits for the elderly. Nowadays families are more geographically distant than ever before, and social media is a great way to connect with faraway relatives. While nothing replaces face-to-face communication, social media is a great way to keep in touch with family members. Another benefit is that elderly people can make new friends who have similar interests, or find long-lost friends from childhood. Finally, social media use can be very educational. Looking through Facebook news is a great way to stay informed and keep up to date with local and global events.Have your grandparents had a social media account yet? Have they asked you to help them create one, but you didn't bother? Perhaps you should make the effort because it may affect their quality of life.12. How do young people usually react to their grandparents' using social media?A．They find it amazing. B．They try to offer advice.C．They have much concern. D．They pay little attention to it.13. What can be learned about Baddie Winkle?A．She mainly focuses on celebrities.B．She is famous on social media despite her age.C．She finds it easy to learn how to use social media.D．She tries very hard to behave like an ordinary person.14. Social media use can make the elderly .A．create Facebook news B．keep up with the timesC．keep good health physically D．replace face-to-face communication15. What would be the best title for the text?A．Grandparents busy online B．Grandparents’ quality timeC．Social media's health benefits D．Social media's increasing useThe moon is a mysterious place that has fascinated humans for centuries. As technology has advanced, our ability to explore the moon has also increased. 16One of the most significant advancements in moon exploration is the use of unmanned spacecraft. 17 These spacecrafts are able to travel to the moon and collect data that help us understand more about its composition, atmosphere, and geological features. By studying the moon, scientists can gain insights into the formation and evolution of our solar system.Another exciting aspect of lunar exploration is the potential for resource extraction(提取). 18 They could be used for various purposes, including the production of fuel and building materials. Extracting these resources could help reduce our dependence on Earth-based resources and pave the way for a more sustainable future.Moreover, lunar exploration also holds the promise of scientific discovery. By studying the moon, we can gain a deeper understanding of the universe and the laws of physics that govern it. 19 Furthermore, new scientific theories could revolutionize our understanding of the world.20 The moon's harsh environment, lack of atmosphere, and extreme temperature variations make ita difficult place to conduct experiments and operations. Despite these challenges, scientists and engineers continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in lunar exploration.In conclusion, lunar exploration is an exciting and important field that offers vast potential for scientific discovery and resource extraction. As technology continues to advance, we can expect to see more advancements in this area and a deeper understanding of the moon and its role in our solar system.My mom and I got up early to go shopping for the Christmas.

AWhen Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So, he thought the land must be rich in gold.

Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export.Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.Education is very important to the Costa Ricans. Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to separate (单独的) schools.

All the sessions last for 2 hours.COne of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).On September 11th ，1958，Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is.” What an honor！I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories. I told it over and over how much I loved it!One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”, and “dying”, which sounded ominous. Christmas was coming. “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I’d never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? He’s all right?” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said wecan bring Richard home !”“Thank God!” I heard Mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!9. what happened to the author on September 11th, 1958?A．He got a baby brother. B．He got a Christmas giftC．He became four years old. D．He received a doll.10.What does the underlined word “ominous” in Paragraph 3 probably mean？A．Impossible.

D．Disappointment. 12.What is the passage mainly about ?A．A sad Christmas day B．Life with a lovely babyC．A special Christmas gift. D．Memories of a happy familyDIt’s clearly become a trend in schools around the world to ban(禁止) students from using the term, “best friends,” according to psychologist Dr. Barbara Greenberg. The movement, which is believed to have started in Prince George's school in South London, isn't intended to discourage close friendships, but rather encourage a wider friend group, Greenberg says.“Let’s face it. You can’t ban somebody from having a close relationship, and you can’t really ban somebody from having a best friend but what the schools are trying to do is foster the idea of kids having more than a single friend,” Greenberg said.The idea is to increase the number of interactions a student may have with different members of his or her peer group. “I see kids come in all week long who are feeling awful（难受的）because they are either nobody’s best friend or their best friend has moved on,” Greenberg says.Jay Jacobs, who operates Timber Lake Camp in New York, stresses the downside of not fostering multiple relationships at a young age, for exactly that reason. “I think that there are problems in just having one friend,”Jacobs says. “Remember as you grow up, interests change, and children go in different directions.” Jacobs adds that teachers at Timber Lake, which changes positions betweenGlen Cove in winter and Shandake in summer, have made it a point to promote a more inclusive environment for years.Jacobs reminds people that, “As you grow up, interests change, and children go in different directions,” so having only one friend can be risky. He holds the belief that children will be better set up for success later in life if they get used to having a wider friend group at a young age. “It’s about promoting kindness, looking to children to be kind to one another and to be aware of what it looks like when you’re not,” Jacobs says.13.Why do schools ban the term “best friends”?A. To make students concentrate on their studies.B. To encourage students to make more friends.C. To prevent students from falling in love at a young age.D. To discourage students from having a close relationship.14.Why are some kids feeling awful according to Greenberg?A. Their best friends have moved house.B. They are banned from making best friends.C. They are under great pressure from study.D. Their best friends have started new friendships.15.What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. MistakeB. DifficultyC. DisadvantageD. Burden16.What would be Jay Jacobs’ attitude to Greenberg’s idea?A. SupportiveB. DoubtfulC. OpposedD. Unconcerned.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。

AThe four theme parks below offer the most thrilling (刺激的) rides and attractions in the world.Busch Gardens WilliamsburgLocated (坐落) in Virginia, the USA, this theme park has some of the highest-rated thrill rides in the world.

The park also has thrilling water rides, rides for kids, other rides, shows, tours, animal exhibits and more. Divided into nine areas representing European countries, the park has won an award for the quality of its food.EverlandAs one of the world’s most popular theme parks, Everland is located in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. The park has 40 thrill rides, including a world-famous wooden roller coaster, and many other attractions such as a hunting ride, a zoo, indoor and outdoor water parks, shows and more.Blackpool Pleasure BeachThis Lancashire amusement park is one of the most visited theme parks in the United Kingdom.

But recently, black cats can no longer enjoy so much favor.The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals（英国防止虐待动物协会）announced a rise in the number of black cats being abandoned by their owners, due to not looking good in selfies（自拍）.According to the RSPCA, more than 70 percent of the cats in its care are black. The biggest reason for that is black cats tend not to photograph as their lighter and brighter-colored fellows with more obvious markings. An RSPCA spokesman said, “This has become a national problem. And we are urgi ng people to never judge a cat by its color but look at its personality instead.”The Millwood Cat Rescue Centre has taken in nice black cats in the past two weeks. The founder of the rescue centre said, “We have had a lot of black cats because people don’t like black at the moment. Other look at the black cats and then just say ‘Oh,have you got anything else?’”Animal lover Gabriella Fletcher owns a 16-year-old black cat, Susie. She regularly takes selfies with her pet. She said, “It is hard to get a good picture as you can’t really see how beautiful Susie is. She is just as special as any other cat.”25.Why are black cats less favored by people?A. They are rising in number.B. They don’t bring good luck anymoreC. They are banned by RSPCA.D. They don’t look good in photos.26.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 imply?A. People want more black cats.B. People want to have something to eat.C. People want more pet animals.D. People are unwilling to see so many black cats.27.In Gabriella Fletcher’s eyes, black cats are_______.A. disgustingB. unluckyC. ordinaryD. attractive28.Which of the following can be the best title of this text?A. Black cats out in “selfies”.B. Black cats abandoned in t he UK.C. Black cats in need of caring.D. Black cats favored again.CIn Korea, few of the older people can speak some English, and most of them can’t say a word. They will often smile and laugh while trying to help English-speaking foreigners. But recently English learning has become popular with the youth. If you really need help, it is better to go younger. A lot of university students or young adults can speak at least basic English and will usually be very willing to help you. Actually even if you just look lost, a younger Korean will probably ask you if you need help. A lot of Koreans will take the chance to help you in order just to practicetheir English skills—a win-win situation. Everyone in Korea takes English classes these days starting from elementary(初级的) school normally. Many also join in after-school programs for studies.I was in my friend’s city which was about 4 hours’ driving from mine. In my city, they had the timetable in English as well as Korean, but that wasn’t the case here. I could not read Korean at that time, so I c ould not find when my bus was planned to leave, and did not know how to ask. Luckily, as I was looking at the timetable with the eyes wide open (probably with a puzzled, or perplexed look on my face), a Korean person asked me if I need help. I told him where I was going and he showed me the timetable and even helped me buy my ticket!29 What can we know from Paragraph1?A Most of the order Koreans speak English very well.B All the Koreans are asked to learn to speak English.C The young Koreans are not good at speaking English.D English has won popularity with young people in Korea.30 Many Koreans are willing to help lost foreigners to ___________.A make many friends with foreignersB make use of the chance to practice EnglishC show their kindness and respect to foreignersD show off their own ability to speak English31 What does the underlined word “perplexed” mean?A Difficult to expressB Very satisfiedC Unable to understandD Very surprised32 What can we know about the writer?A He is probably from EnglandB His native language is EnglishC He went to Korea to learn KoreanD He is grateful to the Korean person who helped him.DIn the early days of human history, people survived by hunting wild animals, or gathering wild grains and plants for food. Then, some people learned to grow cropsand raise animals for food. They were the first farmers.From the sixteenth century on, the word “farm” has meant agricultural land. But a much older meaning of the word “farm”is linked to economics. The word “farm”comes from the Latin word “firma”, which means an unchanging payment. Experts say the earliest meaning of the English word “farm” was a yearly payment made as a tax or rent.Farmers in early England did not own their land. They paid every year to use agricultural lands. In England, farmers used hawthorn trees along the edges of houses. They called this row of hawthorns a hedge. Hedging fields was how careful farmers marked and protected them. Soon, people began to use the word “hedging”to describe steps that could be taken to protect against financial loss. Hedging is common among gamblers who make large bets. A gambler bets a lot of money on one team. But, to be on the safe side, he also places a smaller bet on the other team, to reduce a possible loss.You might say that someone is hedging his bet when he invests in several different kinds of business. One business may fail, but likely not all. Farmers know that it is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay has to be cut and gathered when it is dry. So a wise farmer never postpones gathering his hay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear. A wise person copi es the farmer. He works when conditions are right.33 We can know from the 3rd paragraph that farmers in early England _________.A had land of their ownB paid to use hawthorn trees every yearC used hedging fieldsD often suffered from financial loss34 Which of the following is wise?A A mother tries to sleep as soon as her baby is quietB Hay has to be cut and gathered before it is dryC Put off gathering hay when the sun is shiningD Gather hay as it is rainy35 If a boy is carefully listening to his teacher in class, he learns to _________.A become a wise farmerB hedge his betC gather his hayD make hay while the sun shines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。

After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is.” What an honor！I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own.I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories. I told it over and over how much I loved it!One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”, and“dying”, which sounded ominous.Christmas was coming. “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I’d never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? He’s all right?” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home !”“Thank God!” I heard Mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home.I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!9. what happened to the author on September 11th , 1958?A．He got a baby brother. B．He got a Christmas giftC．He became four years old.

D．Memories of a happy familyDIt’s clearly become a trend in schools around the world to ban(禁止) students from using the term, “best friends,” according to psychologist Dr. Barbara Greenberg. The movement,which is believed to have started in Prince George's school in South London, isn't intended to discourage close friendships, but rather encourage a wider friend group, Greenberg says. “Let’s face it. You can’t ban somebody from having a close relationship, and you can’t really ban somebody from having a best friend but what the schools are trying to do is foster the idea of kids having more than a single friend,” Greenberg said.The idea is to increase the number of interactions a student may have with different members of his or her peer group. “I see kids come in all week long who are feeling awful （难受的）because they are either nobody’s best friend or their best friend has moved on,” Greenberg says.Jay Jacobs, who operates Timber Lake Camp in New York, stresses the downside of not fostering multiple relationships at a young age, for exactly that reason. “I think that there are problems in just having one friend,” Jacobs says. “Remember as you grow up, interests change, and children go in different directi ons.” Jacobs adds that teachers at Timber Lake, which changes positions between Glen Cove in winter and Shandake in summer, have made it a point to promote a more inclusive environment for years.Jacobs reminds people that, “As you grow up, interests chang e, and children go in different directions,” so having only one friend can be risky. He holds the belief that children will be better set up for success later in life if they get used to having a wider friend group at a young age. “It’s about promoting kin dness, looking to children to be kind to one another and to be aware of what it looks like when you’re not,” Jacobs says.13.Why do schools ban the term “best friends”?A. To make students concentrate on their studies.B. To encourage students to make more friends.C. To prevent students from falling in love at a young age.D. To discourage students from having a close relationship.14.Why are some kids feeling awful according to Greenberg?A. Their best friends have moved house.B. They are banned from making best friends.C. They are under great pressure from study.D. Their best friends have started new friendships.15.What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. MistakeB. DifficultyC. DisadvantageD. Burden16.Wh at would be Jay Jacobs’ attitude to Greenberg’s idea?A. SupportiveB. DoubtfulC. OpposedD. Unconcerned.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。

Learning from the Internet that you are going to hold a summer camp, I'd like to take part in it.Since I was very young, I've been studying English very hard. However, I have little chance to communicate with students from all over the world in English. So I wish to get this chance to improve my English.I would appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration and I hope to get an early reply.Yours sincerely,Li Hua读后续写：Paragraph 1：In a second, all went quiet. I slowly got up, looking around to see if anyone was hurt. However, one person did it faster than me. It was my father. He rushed to us, asking us, "Is everyone OK?" His voice was full of anxiety and love. Luckily, all were safe, except my little sister who had her left knee injured. We all surrounded her to check whether she could walk normally. She tried to stand up but failed because of the ache.Paragraph 2：When we had no idea what to do, the strange man came back. He said that the moment he heard the loud sound, he returned immediately. Seeing what we had experienced, he said sorry to us again and again, and told us the dangerous situation could be the reason why the area was closed off by a fence. We had to give up our plan. With his help, we made a little "bed" with the branches, and carried my little sister back finally. What an adventure.写作评分原则及各档次给分范围和要求：1.评分原则。

But recently, black cats canno longer enjoy so much favor.The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals（英国防止虐待动物协会）announced a rise in the number of black cats being abandoned by their owners, due to not looking good in selfies（自拍）.According to the RSPCA, more than 70 percent of the cats in its care are black. The biggest reason for that is black cats tend not to photograph as their lighter and brighter-colored fellows with more obvious markings. An RSPCA spokesman said, “This has become a national problem. And we are urging people to never judge a cat by its color but look at its personality instead.”The Millwood Cat Rescue Centre has taken in nice black cats in the past two weeks. The founder of the rescue centre said, “We have had a lot of black cats because people don’t like black at the moment. Other look at the black cats and then just say ‘Oh, have you got anything else?’”Animal lover Gabriella Fletcher owns a 16-year-old black cat, Susie. She regularly takes selfies with her pet. She said, “It is hard to get a good picture as you can’t really see how beautiful Susie is. She is just as special as any other cat.”25.Why are black cats less favored by people?A.

They will often smile and laugh while trying to help English-speaking foreigners. But recently English learning has become popular with the youth. If you really need help, it is better to go younger.A lot of university students or young adults can speak at least basic English and will usually be very willing to help you. Actually even if you just look lost, a younger Korean will probably ask you if you need help. A lot of Koreans will take the chance to help you in order just to practice their English skills—a win-win situation. Everyone in Korea takes English classes these days starting from elementary(初级的) school normally. Many also join in after-school programs for studies.I was in my friend’s city which was about 4 hours’ driving from mine. In my city, they had the timetable in English as well as Korean, but that wasn’t the case here. I could not read Korean at that time, so I c ould not find when my bus was planned to leave, and did not know how to ask. Luckily, as I was looking at the timetable with the eyes wide open (probably with a puzzled, or perplexed look on my face), a Korean person asked me if I need help. I told him where I was going and he showed me the timetable and evenhelped me buy my ticket!29 What can we know from Paragraph1?A Most of the order Koreans speak English very well.B All the Koreans are asked to learn to speak English.C The young Koreans are not good at speaking English.D English has won popularity with young people in Korea.30 Many Koreans are willing to help lost foreigners to ___________.A make many friends with foreignersB make use of the chance to practice EnglishC show their kindness and respect to foreignersD show off their own ability to speak English31 What does the underlined word “perplexed” mean?A Difficult to expressB Very satisfiedC Unable to understandD Very surprised32 What can we know about the writer?A He is probably from EnglandB His native language is EnglishC He went to Korea to learn KoreanD He is grateful to the Korean person who helped him.DIn the early days of human history, people survived by hunting wild animals, or gathering wild grains and plants for food. Then, some people learned to grow crops and raise animals for food. They were the first farmers.From the sixteenth century on, the word “farm” has meant agricultural land. But a much older meaning of the word “farm” is linked to economics. The word “farm”comes from the Latin word “firma”, which means an unchanging payment. Experts say the earliest meaning of the English word “farm” was a yearly payment made as a tax or rent.Farmers in early England did not own their land. They paid every year to use agricultural lands. In England, farmers used hawthorn trees along the edges of houses. They called this row of hawthorns a hedge. Hedging fields was how careful farmers marked and protected them. Soon, people began to use the word “hedging”to describe steps that could be taken to protect against financial loss. Hedging is common among gamblers who make large bets. A gambler bets a lot of money on one team. But, to be on the safe side, he also places a smaller bet on the other team, to reduce a possible loss.You might say that someone is hedging his bet when he invests in several different kinds of business. One business may fail, but likely not all. Farmers know that it is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay has to be cut and gathered when it is dry. So a wise farmer never postpones gathering his hay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear. A wise person copies the farmer. He works when conditions are right.33 We can know from the 3rd paragraph that farmers in early England _________.A had land of their ownB paid to use hawthorn trees every yearC used hedging fieldsD often suffered from financial loss34 Which of the following is wise?A A mother tries to sleep as soon as her baby is quietB Hay has to be cut and gathered before it is dryC Put off gathering hay when the sun is shiningD Gather hay as it is rainy35 If a boy is carefully listening to his teacher in class, he learns to _________.A become a wise farmerB hedge his betC gather his hayD make hay while the sun shines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。
