英语---浙江省诸暨中学2017-2018学年高一上学期期中考试试卷
浙江省诸暨中学2017-2018学年高一上学期期中考试英语试卷第一部分选择题（共三节，满分65分）第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
AGetting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal. But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’ bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.1. What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on?A. Learning problems and lack of sleep.B. Teenagers’ sleep-related diseases.C. Activities to prevent sleeplessness.D.American k ids’ sleeping habits.2. How many hours of sleep do 11-year-olds need every day?A. 7 hours.B. 10 hours.C. 8 hours.D. 18 hours.3. Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon?A. They are affected by certain body chemicals.B. They tend to do things that excite them.C. They follow their parents’ examples.D. They don’t need to go to school early.BSurviving Hurricane Sandy(飓风桑迪)Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special, ” she says.On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily(临时地，暂时地) attend a school in Brooklyn.In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. V olunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it. ”Natalie’s choice was to help.She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway, ” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before. ”4. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane , she found______.A. her neighborhood was seriously damagedB. some friends had lost their livesC. her school had moved to BrooklynD. the elderly were free from suffering5. According to paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most?A. The people helping Rockaway rebuild.B. The people trapped in high-rise building.C. The volunteers donating money to survivors.D. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.6. How did Natalie help the survivors?A. She gave her toys to the kids.B. She took care of younger children.C. She called on the White House to help.D. She built an information sharing platform.7. What does the story intend to tell us?A. E ast or West, home is best.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. Little people can make a big difference.D. Technology is power.CSuddenly another thought went thr ough Kate’s mind like an electric shock. An express train was due to go past about thirty minutes later. If it were not stopped, that long train, full of passengers, would fall into the stream. “Someone must go to the station and warn the station-master,” Kate thought. But who was to go? She would have to go herself. There was no one else.In wind and rain she started on her difficult way. Soon she was at the bridge that crossed the Des Moines River, a bridge also built of wood, just like the bridge across Honey Creek. The storm had not washed this away, but there was no footpath across it. She would have to cross it bystepping from sleeper(枕木) to sleeper. With great care she began the dangerous crossing, sometimes on her hands and knees, hardly daring to look down between the sleepers into the wild flood waters below. If she should slip, she would fall between the sleepers, into the rapidly flowing stream.At last-she never knew how long it had taken her-she felt solid ground under her feet. But there was no time to rest. She still had to run more than half a mile and had only a few minutes left. Unless she reached the station before the express did, many, many lives would be lost.She did reach the station just as the train came into sight. Fortunately the station-master was standing outside. “The bridge is down! Stop the train! Oh, please stop it!” Kate shouted breathlessly.The station-master went pale. He rushed into the station building and came back with a signal light. He waved the red light as the train came into the station. It was not a second too early.8. What did Kate decide to do?A. Visit the station-masterB. Check the signal light.C. Meet the passengers.D. Stop the express train.9. Which of the following words best describes Kate’s journey?A. Fruitless.B.Risky.C. Well-planned.D. Boring.10. Why did the station-master turn pale?A. He suddenly fell ill.B. He realized the danger.C. He discovered his mistake.D. He became over-excited.第二节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

浙江省诸暨市暨阳分校2022-2023学年高一上学期期中考试英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解My name’s Ellen and I grew up in Manchester in the 19th Century at the time of the Industrial Revolution. I was born in 1853, and at that time, Manchester had 108 cotton factories. It was called Cottonopolis.Life wasn’t easy for children in those days, a nd most children were dead by the age of five. Some might say they were the lucky ones because they didn’t have to go to work in a factory.By 1853, most people had moved from the countryside to the city for work, and the city was dirty and overcrowded. Three or four families often lived in the same house. We lived in one room in the basement of a house. It was damp, dark and cold and we only had one bed. The toilet was outside in the street, and we had to share it with all our neighbours. There wasn’t any running water in the house either. We didn’t have any clean drinking water, and many people died from cholera (霍乱). My eldest brother died of cholera two months before I was born.I was eight when I started working at the cotton mill. The noise was terrible and the air was filled with white dust from the cotton. I couldn’t breathe and I wanted to run away.One morning, after I had been working there for a few months, I had a terrible accident. I was very tired that morning. I had been working for three hours when, for just a second, I closed my eyes and that’s when it happened. A woman grabbed (抓住)me and pulled me away from the machine, but it was too late. I had lost three fingers on my right hand. At the time I was pleased. “Now I don’t have to work anymore,” I thought. But no, I was wrong. They found me another job —a job where I didn’t need a hand.1、What can be learnt about Ellen’s family after moving to the city?A. They shared a basement with others.B. There was no toilet inside their roomC. The running water in their room was dirty.D. Her eldest brother died after she was bor.2、Why did Ellen want to run away from the cotton factory?A. She couldn’t hold her breath.B. She was too young to work there.C. Girls did heavy tasks at the factory.D. The working conditions were terrible.3、What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the text?A. To tell her hard childhood life.B. To raise concerns about children.C. To express her thanks to life saver.D. To show her dissatisfaction with the job.Imagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older people company and helps them remember to take their medicine. That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a 3-million-dollar from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence, or AI, to Hasbro’s “Joy for All” robotic cat.The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced at over 1, 000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” (陪伴) for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the older people to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars.It is an idea that has appealed (有吸引力) to Jeanne Elliott. Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆) The Joy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her relaxed while Elliott is at work. Elliot said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people.4、What can we know about the cat?A. It will be on sale in two years.B. It may be cheaper in the future.C. Its abilities will be made simpler for the elderly.D. It can tell activities older adults need the most.5、What does the example in Paragraph 3 show?A. The cat gives much help to the elderly.B. The cat works well to talk with the patient.C. The cat can make the dementia patient less painful.D. The cat should be designed to satisfy patients’ need.6、What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Each family can afford such a cat in the future.B. A talking cat is quite popular among the elderly.C. Feelings of sadness among the elderly are unavoidable.D. The feeling of being needed is important to the elderly.My challenge for you is this： to read a book for 15minutes every single day for a month.Let me explain a bit, by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn't one of them. I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad can't read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and papers for work, but not books. He's busy, so I think sitting down to read for just 15minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading.My dad is not the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there are lots of benefits to reading, which screen﹣based activities don't have.Firstly, it's better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for your eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good night's sleep.One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another world﹣I often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world, so you can truly relax. I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better.I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see thingsfrom other people's point of view, and understand other people's decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling﹣you really can be inside someone else's head!So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you are waking up, going to bed, eating lunch, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading!7、The author mentions his father in the text to show ________.A. his father is busyB. reading is importantC. his father likes readingD. many people have no habit of reading8、The author writes the text mainly basing on ________.A. his personal experienceB. some scientific experimentsC. his father's personal adviceD. knowledge from books9、The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 5 refers to ________.A. helping readers sleep wellB. making readers feel relaxedC. transporting readers to a different worldD. reminding readers of the real world10、What is the author's attitude to reading？A. Negative.B. Uncertain.C. Supportive.D. Doubtful.二、七选五11、Failure is human beings’ biggest fear, yet it is faced by every human being. Sometimes, people’s fear of it is their biggest barrier to success. Therefor e, you need to learn how to deal with failure. ①_______Never give up. Before starting anything that you think will give you success, promise yourself that you will never give up. ②_______ Remember that it is never too late to do so.③_______ This is the opportunity that you should not let go of. Suppose you are on a football ground. You strike the ball for 9 times in a row and fail. But at the tenth attempt, you succeed. The tenth attempt proves that you have somehow learnt from your mistakes.Never think that you’ve got only one plan. The worst thing you can do after failing in some project is thinking that it was the only plan you could ever think of. ④_______ If Plan A fails, turn to Plan B or Plan C. If you are into achieving something, no one or nothing inthis world can stop you.Keep a positive attitude. This is the most important thing that you need to live a happy life. Always think positive. ⑤_______ Positivity is all we need to grow and establish ourselves in this world.A. Keep on trying.B. Never let yourself down.C. There is always another way.D. Learn from your mistakes.E. Just as the saying goes, failure is the mother of success.F. Here are some tips which can help you get on the positive side of life.G. This promise helps make your mind ready for both failure and success.三、完形填空（15空）When businessman Gordon Hartman was on a family vacation years ago, he observed that his daughter, Morgan, who was 12 at the time, had difficulty in 1 the fun games that other children pl ayed.

But what are you going to do with your old computer?In the past consumers have often paid high prices for their old computers, but how much do you think these computers are worth now? Few people want to buy a computer which has become out-of-date or has been replaced by a newer mode. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do with a computer which you have had for five or six years is to throw it away with your other garbage.What do many people do when they try to sell their old computers? Foolishly, they take into account its original cost and then reduce the price according to the age of the computer rather like a second-hand car. They forget that new computers are becoming cheaper every day, making old computers almost worthless. In 1985, for example, a good computer cost over $4,000. Then years later its owner would be lucky to get $ 400.One well-known computer magazine recently made a list of 10 things to do with an old computer. One suggestion was to give it away to charity or give it as one of the small prizes in a competition. The final suggestion was to keep it in a safe place and hope that it would become a collector’s item in 15 or ears —though the article in the magazine admitted that in 15 or ears, there may be so many old computers that they will all be worthless.41.

He sent camera team out one evening to film the sunset for him.The next morning he said to the men, “Have you provided me with that sunset?”“No, Sir,” the men answered.The director was angry. “Why not?” he asked.“Well,” one of the men answered, “we are on the east coast here, and the sun sets in thewest. We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset.”“But I want a sunset!” the director shouted. “Go to the airport, take th e next flight to thewest coast, and get one.”But then a young secretary had an idea. “Why don’t you photograph a sunrise,” she suggested, “and then play it backwards, Then it’ll look like a sunset.” “That’s a very good idea!” the director said. Then he turned to the camera team and said, “Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.”The camera team went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay. Then at nine o’clock they took it to the director. “Here it is, Sir,” they said, and gave it to him. He was very pleased.They all went into the studio. “All right,” the director explained, “now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the sunset behind them.”The “sunset” began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera team to stop.The birds in the film were flying backwards away from the beach.46.

That is why some friendships don’t last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people u sually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunchmoney or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with each other. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so that you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.51. Some friendships don’t last long because ______.A. there are too many people who want to make friends.B. some people receive friendship but don’t give friendship back.C. those who give others friendship receive friendship from others.D. they don’t know friendship is something serious.52.

Discussing your problems with your friends often helps to solve the problem.D. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.54. In the third paragraph, the underlined word ‘they’ refers to(指) ______.A. generosity and friendshipB. generosity and sharingC. your ideas and feelingsD. your clothes55. The best title of this passage is ______.A. Honesty Is the Best PolicyB. A Friend in Need Is a Friend indeedC. How to Be FriendsD. Three Important Points in LifeDI have a rule for travel: never carry a map. I prefer to ask for directions(方向).Foreign visitors are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the c orner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat(平坦的). In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure(测量) distance by means of time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “It’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t k now.People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because visitors seldom(很少) understand the Greek language. Instead of giving you the direction, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then he will lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What happens in this situation? A New Yorker might say, “sorry, I have no idea.” But in Y ucatan, Mexico, no one answers, “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know ” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!One thing will help you everywhere ---- in Japan, in the United States, in Greece, in Mexico, or in any other place. You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction and you may find the post office!56. The passage mainly tells that______.A. never carry a map for travelB. there are not many landmarks in the American MidwestC. there are different ways to give directions in different parts of the worldD. New Yorkers often say, “I have no idea,” but people in Yucatan, Mexico, never say this57. The passage says , “In Japan, people use landmarks in their directions.” The word “landmark” means______A. building namesB. street namesC. hotels, marks and bus stopsD. buildings or places which are easily recognized58. In which place do people tell distance by means of time ?A. JapanB. American MidwestC. Los Angles, CaliforniaD. Greece59. In the passage, ______ countries are mentioned (提到) by the writer.A. sevenB. fourC. eightD. five60. Which of the following is wrong?A. Travelers can learn about people’s customs by asking questions about directions.B. A person’s body language can help you understand directions.C. People in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions by means oftime.D. People in different places always give directions in the same way.IV. 单词拼写.

By cleanly circling back-to-back 1800 ticks, theBeijing Winter Olympics. The notable achievement realized a childhood dream to reach the peak of the sport, which he began to learn at the age of 4.Now with two shining medals hung around his neck, the 17-year-old described his outstanding Olympic debut (首秀) as an unbelievable experience that has made all his efforts worthwhile. “This feels so unreal that I’ve finally accomplished what I’ve dreamed of since I was little,” said an emotional Su.Over the past four years, Su has combined his talent with hard work to produce one of the swiftest rises to excellence the sport has ever seen. When the Shougang Big Air venue (会场) hosted its first international event, Su was an unknown qualifier, who didn’t even makethe final runs. Just over two years later, Su is the name on everyone’s lips at the venue Olympic debut — drawing the whole nation’s attention to the sport he loves.“The biggest motivation (动力) for me is my love for snowboarding,” Su said, when asked about the secret to his success. “In snowboarding, I feel like I can show my own style and creativity. Every time I ride my board, it’s always a joyful moment. I hope through my experience, I can inspire more young people to get interested in the sport.”Su, a former child actor who featured in action movies, said the Olympic gold will encourage him to seek for more breakthroughs — even beyond his athletic career. “I enjoy snowboarding just as much as I enjoy acting,” said Su, who turns 18 on Friday. “I think I still have a lot of possibilities to explore in my future career either in snowboarding or in acting. But now I just want to enjoy the moment and celebrate it as the best possible birthday gift.”4．What does the underlined word “landed” in Paragraph 1 mean?A．Arrived.B．Won.C．Created.D．Dreamed. 5．According to Su himself, what is the secret to his success?A．His acting experience.B．His talent and hard working.C．His passion for snowboarding.D．His life dream of achieving success. 6．Which of the following words can best describe Su?A．Talented and thoughtful.B．Outgoing and devoted.C．Creative and kind-hearted.D．Hard-working and determined. 7．What does Su think of his future?A．Upset.B．Positive.C．Indifferent D．Careful.Imagine the situation.You are driving along a desert or on a mountain.You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device which uses satellites to find the user’s position. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car,plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.The GPS is becoming cheaper and more and more accurate. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.8．According to the passage,with the help of GPS, people .A．can’t be lost in a new cityB．can’t find their way in different countriesC．can learn about the culture of an unknown placeD．can spend the least time getting to another placeA．the GPS is made up of three partsB．a GPS can’t be put into a watchC．a GPS can help you start your carD．the GPS is becoming more and more expensiveA．receivers B．GPS devices C．satellites D．ground stationsA．the history of the GPS B．the introduction of the GPSC．the shape of the GPS D．the three parts of the GPSLive streaming (直播) is booming, with viewers watching nearly 4 billion hours of live stream, in the gaming sector alone, in 2020.To stream or not to stream—that is the question with over 50 million American online creators. With over seven-in-ten people in the US using social media such as YouNow, Facebook Live, YouTube Live and Twitch, sharing a moment, routine, or an exciting experience with others has never been easier for US streamers.For some, the motivation to live stream is for the fun of it, while others are seeking to become the next celebrity (名人).Back in 2016, researchers studied live streams originating from the US, Japan and Germany on the platforms YouNow, Periscope and UStream. They found a wide variety of motivations driving each streamer, with a large majority using live streaming services for their own entertainment.The main motive of US streamers was to reach a specific target group, for example, by performing music. Their goal was to improve their personal image and to cultivate their fan base. On the other hand, socializing was the main motivation for Japanese streamers. The need to communicate with their audience was especially strong. Finally, German streamers’ primary motivations were to relieve their boredom. And they’re not alone. Boredom was also a strong motivator found in both American and Japanese streamers back in 2016. Simply put, many people turned to live streaming to help pass the time and to relieve their boredom.And then there’s a new type of live streaming where streamers don’t perform for, interact or even communicate with their viewers. Instead, the live stream broadcasts uninterrupted everyday activities such as sleeping and studying. Streamers position their cameras on their beds and go to sleep. In February 2020, Chinese streamer YuanSan broadcast his 2-day “sleep-stream” which, to his surprise, attracted 18 million viewers. In an interview, YuanSan claimed that his motivation was to relieve his boredom. “I was so bored that I decided to live stream myself sleeping. What I discovered was that viewers on the internet were even more bored than I was.”12．What makes it easier for US streamers to share online?A．The fast network connections.B．Streamers’ desire for fame.C．People’s need for entertainment.D．The huge number of online viewers. 13．Why do most people want to live stream in 2016?A．To enjoy themselves.B．To make money.C．To make friends.D．To be famous.14．What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A．Various ways of streaming.B．Positive influences of streaming.C．Great achievements of streamers.D．Different motivations of streamers. 15．Which of the following statements could YuanSan agree with?A．It is boring to stream online.B．Streaming can improve his sleep.C．Streaming can help relieve boredom.D．It is important to communicate with viewers.二、七选五Students must then answer properly, using materials they have learned in preparation for the exam. Showing plentiful knowledge of the subject results in passing the exam or an excellent grade.17 As part of the completion of a program at the undergraduate or graduate levels, students might need to prove their knowledge and understanding of a subject area. Many science majors finish Bachelor’s studies with oral exams, or a particular program may require oral and written exams that show how a student has taken in all the materials learned in a four-year period. Usually study guides are available for these exams. 18 One valuable tip for students to succeed is to practice before the exam. 19 But by answering questions classmates or family ask them students can do as many practices as possible. On the day of the exam, students should dress plainly but respectfully, and in keeping with any dress requirements.Students taking these exams should remember how much they have learned, which is hopefully quite a lot. 20 When waiting outside the test room, taking a deep breath and reminding themselves that the oral exam is a nice way to show off how much knowledge has been learned from teachers can help overcome stressful moments. Also, any other relaxation techniques that help can be used.A．It raises questions to students in spoken form.B．Behaving properly can earn students some favor.C．They may not be able to predict all the questions.D．Usually, students performing well are experienced.E．Nervousness can even make the smartest student get stuck.F．There are many examples in college where oral exams are used.G．Therefore, prepared students tend not to be surprised by what they’re asked.三、完形填空on Sundays over the past several months of the pandemic (疫情).

For a long time he had looked forward to getting a beautiful sports car. He knew his father could well afford it, so he told him that was all he wanted.Then on the morning of his graduation(毕业) , his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box. Surprised, the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible(圣经) with h is name on it. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible?” He then rushed out of the house, leaving the Bible.Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements(安排), he received a phone telling him his father had passed away. He had to come home immediatelyand take care of the things that his father left his father left him. When he began to search through his father’s important papers, he saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. He opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading , a car key with a tag(标牌) dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words…”PAID IN FULL”. Sadness and regret filled his heart.41. The underlined word “that” in Paragraph Ⅰ, m eans_______.A. a carB. a boxC. a BibleD. a phone41. The young man was angry on the morning of his graduation because ________.A. his father couldn’t afford a carB. he had to stay in his studyC. he thought he only got a BibleD. his father spent all the money42. Which of the following isn’t mentioned in the third paragraph?A. The young man succeeded in his business.B. The young man lived with his father all the time.C. The young man decided to see his father.D. The young man set up his own family.44. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “ regret ”in the last paragraph?A. 失望B. 后悔C. 遗忘D. 记得45. It can be seen from the passage that the young man ________.A. came to know the truth at lastB. had to pay for the car himselfC. became interested in the BibleD. got angry with his father again(B)On a rainy day, you will see many streams of muddy (多泥的) water running down the slopes (山坡) of a hill. The water is muddy because it washesaway soil from the hill slopes.Sometimes soil is blown away by strong winds. When the soil is carried away by water or wind, we say that the land is eroded (侵蚀). This is known as soil erosion.Plants cannot grow on eroded land. There is not enough soil on eroded land to give them the things they need. Plants need water and salts from the soil. We can do a number of things to stop soil erosion. This is called soil conservation (保护).One way of soil conservation on flat, open ground is to grow small plants such as grasses. Their roots hold the soil tightly together. Another way is to plant trees around an open field. Thus soil erosion by strong winds cannot take place. Rows of trees act as a very big wall.Soil erosion on slopes ca n be stopped by cutting “steps” called terraces (梯田). Water carrying soil cannot run straight down the slope now. It has to run down the terraces. This slows down the flow of the water. Most of the soil in the water is left behind on the terraces.There are some other ways of soil conservation.46. On a rainy day the water running down the slopes of a hill is muddy because ________.A. there is no terrace on the slopesB. there is no small plant on the slopesC. it washes away soil from the slopesD. there is too much soil on the slopes47. Plants cannot grow on eroded land because _____.A. there is a lot of sandB. there is not enough water and saltsC. there is no waterD. the land is too hard48. One way of soil conservation on flat, open ground is ________.A. to grow small plants such as grassesB. to plant trees around an open fieldC. to add fertilizer(肥料) to the soilD. A and B49. From the passage we learn that there are ________ ways to reserve soil.A. only threeB. twoC. more than threeD. six（C）I used to think education was the most important thing in my life. Recently my attitude has begun to change, although I still hold that it is essential for everyone in the world today. As a top junior student in my college, I was asked to make a speech on how to learn English well. Standing in front of the audience and facing so many freshmen, I was trembling. I didn’t remember any word that I had prepared. I ran out of the conference room without finishing my speech, leaving everyone puzzled. I cried that night in my room, feeling that I was a loser. Studying takes up so much of my time that I feel unable to really develop myself. I am just storing knowledge, yet I fail to communicate with others. I have received many awards in school, but they don’t necessarily reflect(反映) anything about me. I don’t know how to socialize. When I leave school I fear I will be of no use to society.I realize that everyone has his own way of living. I want to change my lifestyle. Of course I will keep studying. Yet I plan to look for a part-time job, which might turn out to be a good chance to get to know society. I still believe that working my hardest makes me happy. I will still stay on in college. But I will not allow it to shelter me from the real world.50. The underlined word “essential” in Paragraph 1 probably means _______.A. impossibleB. unnecessaryC. very importantD. most helpful51. From the passage we can learn that the author _____.A. comes to know how important it is to make some moneyB. realizes that it is more important to develop oneself than just to learnknowledgeC. think education is a waste of time in her lifeD. thinks that communication with others is the most important thing in the world52. The author believes the awards she has received ____.A. show that she is a top studentB. show how much time she has spent in learningC. mean that she is really good at studyingD. don’t necessarily reflect her real self( D )A young woman carrying a three-year-old child got on a bus. The conductor hurried to give her a warm welcome and then kindly asked the other passengers to make more room for the woman and her child. On seeing this, people began to talk. "You know this conductor used to be very rude. Now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior , "said a middle-aged man."Yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company," said a second passenger. "That's right," another lady said, "I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor. "Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said , "Excuse me, but can I know your name, please? Your excellent service must be praised..."Before he could open his mouth, the three-year-old child sitting on the young woman's lap interrupted, "I know his name. I call him Dad."53.

The Transportation Department is mapping out a new plan for the city’s parking system. There are one million cars on the road in Shanghai but only enough public parking space to provide room for 15 percent of these vehicles. It is no wonder that local drivers get so worried trying to find a place to park. The city is seeing a rise in private car owners. In March, the city sentout 2,000 private car licenses, the highest number of licenses ever sent out in a month. And prices rose to 14,600 yuan, 500 more than in February. Industry experts say this suggests that local people have a strong, active interest in buying cars.By the year 2020, the number of automobiles in Shanghai will probably reach two million. If one parking lot is for each car, then a lot of parking space should be built for these vehicles.Downtown Shanghai is most short of parking space. However, experts point out that simply building more parking lots in downtown areas is not practical and doesn’t provide an ideal solution. The idea of “ Park &Ride” system has been suggested. This means that drivers can leave their vehicles in car parks nearby subway or bus stations and ride public transport to go downtown. Based on this idea, the city will limit the number of parking lots in downtown areas and demand higher parking fees but build more parking areas near main subway and bus stops.57.The underlined phrase “ mapping out ” in the first paragraph means__________.A. makingB. arguingC. commandingD. requesting58. About __________ drivers can find places to park their cars in Shanghai now.A. 850,000B. 1,000,000C. 150,000D. 2,000,00059. What can we infer from the second paragraph?A. The city sent out more private licenses in February.B. Less and less people bought cars in March.C. The city sent out less private licenses in March.D. More and more people are going to buy cars.60.According to the idea of a “ Park & Ride ” system, the city will__________.A. send out more private car licensesB. build more parking lots near bus stopsC. encourage people to buy more carsD. build more parking areas in downtownIV.

浙江省诸暨市第二高级中学2022-2023学年高一上学期期中考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解One wet, rainy April afternoon Miss O’ Shay, the principal, sent for Nancy Lee to stop by her office as school closed. Pupils without umbrellas or raincoats crowded in doorways hoping to make it home between showers. Outside the skies were grey. Nancy Lee’s thoughts were suddenly grey, too.She did not think she had done anything wrong, yet that tight (紧的) little knot came in her throat just the same as she came near Miss O’ Shay’ s door. Perhaps she had banged her locker too often and too hard. Perhaps the note in French she had written to Sallie halfway across the study hall just for fun had never got to Sallie but into Miss O’ Shay’ s hands instead. She knocked on Miss O’ Shay’ s door. That familiarly solid and competent voice said, “Come in.” Miss O’ Shay had a way of making you feel welcome, even if you camo to be punished. “Sit down, Nancy Lee Johnson,” said Miss O’ Shay. “I have something to tell you.” Nancy Leesat down. “But I must ask you to promise not to tell anyone yet.” “I won’ t, Miss O’ Shay,” Nancy Lee said, wondering what on earth the principal had to say to her. “You are about to graduate,” Miss O’ Shay said. “And we shall miss you. You have been an excellent student, Nancy, and you will not be without honors on the senior list, as I am sure you know.” At that point there was a light knock on the door. Miss O’ Shay called out, “Come in,” and Miss Dietrich entered. “May I be part of this, too?” she asked, tall and smiling. “Of course,” Miss O’ Shay said. “I was just telling Nancy Lee what we thought of her. But I hadn’ t got around to giving her the news. Perhaps, Miss Dietrich, you’ d like to tell her yourself.”Miss Dietrich was always direct. “Nancy Lee,” she said, “your picture has won the Artist Club scholarship.” The brown girl’s eyes widened, her heart jumped, then her throat tightened again. She tried to smile, but instead tears came to her eyes. “Dear Nancy Lee,” Miss O’ Shay said, “we are so happy for you.” The elderly white woman took her hand and shook it warmly while Miss Dietrich smiled with pride.Nancy Lee must have danced al1 the way home. She never remembered quite how she got there through the rain. She hoped she had been calm. But certainly she hadn’t stopped to tell anybody her secret on the way. Raindrops, smiles, and tears mingled on her brown face.She hoped her mother hadn’t yet got home and that the house was empty.1．How did Nancy feel on her way to Miss O’ Shay’s office?A．Confident.B．Excited.C．Uncertain.D．Scared. 2．What can we infer from the passage about Nancy?A．She was often punished by the principal.B．She would never tell anyone her secret.C．She was Miss Dietrich’ s best student.D．She would try to hide feelings at home.3．Which is the best title for this story?A．A New Star.B．The Girl.C．The News.D．A Young Artist.There are many useful things we can do each day to feel better. It may take some efforts and time to make a habit of drinking 8 glasses of water daily or thinking more positively, but it is well worth it. What things do you do every day to feel better?Probably the healthiest thing you can do to feel better each day is to exercise early in the morning. You don't have to run the whole morning or spend a few hours in the gym. Even doing some easy exercise like walking, sit-ups or jumping the rope will help you feel better in no time!Again, due to our busy schedules, we don't get enough sleep each night. If you have trouble falling asleep, avoid watching TV or surfing the Internet right before bed. Also, try to make healthy bedtime snack choices and don't drink tea or coffee too late in the day.If you drink 3 glasses of water, 4 glasses of coffee or tea and a glass of soda each day and think that you drink enough water, think again. Your body needs water (not coffee or soda!) to function properly. Aiming to drink 7-8 glasses of water each day can make you feel better.Being positive is the key to a longer life. Positive thoughts can help improve your overall heath. Life is full of stressful situations and it's hard to stay cheerful when everything goes wrong, but your positive attitude can help you solve any problem and fight any stress faster and easier. Your positive attitude is especially good for your heart health. Smile, stay positive and live a longer life!4．In the author's opinion which can benefit us most in order that we feel better?A．Sleeping enough.B．Drinking enough water.C．Thinking more positively.D．Taking morning exercise.5．Which of the following agrees with what is said in Paragraph 3?A．Drinking tea or coffee makes us sleep less.B．Drinking tea before bed makes it harder to fall asleep.C．Watching TV or surfing the Internet leads to less sleep.D．Our busy schedules cause more difficulty in falling asleep.6．Why is water necessary to our body?A．Because it can make us feel better.B．Because it can have our body work smoothly.C．Because in can do more good to our body than coffee.D．Because it can hep avoid feeling thirsty.7．What do we need most when everything goes wrong?A．Thinking positively.B．Thinking out wise ways.C．Having a right attitude.D．Staying cheerful.There are only 24 hours in a day, and usually about a third of that is spent sleeping. So is it possible to make use of this time and learn a new skill or even a language? In other words, is sleep learning possible?Many studies have found that a basic form of learning, called conditioning, can happen during sleep. In a 2012 study published in the magazine Nature Neuroscience, for example, Israeli researchers found that people can learn to connect sounds with smells during sleep. The scientists played a tone (声音) to sleeping study participants (参与者) while putting some rotten (腐烂的) fish beside their beds. Once awake, when hearing the tone the people held their breath in anticipation (预判) of a bad smell.“This was a clear finding showing participants formed new memories during sleep.” said Andrillon, a scientist in this field.Although the new memory was implicit (暗示性的), it could influence how people behave, researchers found in a 2014 study published in the Journal of Neuroscience. In that research, after spending a night in a room full of cigarette (香烟) smell mixed with rotten eggs or fish, smokers use fewer cigarettes.Andrillon and his team members have found that learning in sleep can also go beyondsimple conditioning.In their 2017 study published in Nature Communications, participants were able to pick out sound features that they had heard during sleep.Leaning abilities in sleep may spread to learning of words. In a study published in Current Biology, researchers played pairs of made-up words and their supposed meanings, like “guga” means elephant, to sleep participants. After this, when awake, the participants did better in picking the right translation of made-up words in a multi-choice test.So far, research suggests it may be possible to learn about the tone and pronunciation of a language or even the meaning of words while sleeping, although it is to a weaker level than what we do during the day without noticing.8．What is the main purpose of the text?A．To show that sleep learning is possible.B．To study how to make use of sleeplearning.C．To report some famous research findings.D．To prove sleep learning is implicit and weak.9．What does the phrase “new memories” in the third paragraph refer to (指的是)?A．Connection between participants and scientists.B．Connection between sounds and smells.C．The tone’s influence on the rotten fish.D．The rotten eggs’ influence on cigarettes. 10．What is the main idea of the last two paragraphs?A．Sleep can do good to learning.B．Language learning can happen in sleep.C．People learn in sleep in a different language.D．Sleep learning is better thandaytime learning.二、七选五Do you want to be cleverer and get more knowledge? Five ways can make you cleverer.▲ Don't Watch TV Too Much11 If you're too tired, listen to some music. When you’re with your friends or family, leave the TV off and have a conversation. All of these things make your mind run better than television does and also allow you to relax.▲ 12Taking exercise always leads to greater leaning. Use your body to clear your head andcreate more energy. Afterwards. you will feel more energetic and can concentrate (专注) more easily.▲ Read Challenging (有挑战性的)BooksIf you want to improve your thinking and writing ability, you should read books that make you concentrate. 13▲ Early to Bed, Early to RiseYou'll be most refreshed if you go to bed early and don't sleep more than 8 hours. 14 Waking up early makes you active all day.▲ Take Time to Reflect (反省)Spending time alone on reflecting gives you a chance to organize your thoughts. Afterwards, you'll have a better understanding of what's important and what isn't. 15 A．Reading a classic novel will make you think more clearly.B．Try to Learn.C．Watching a lot of TV does no good to your mind.D．Then the unimportant things won't trouble you anymore.E．Take Exercise.F．The more you sleep, the better it is.G．The early morning hours are most peaceful and productive.三、完形填空In Chicago, the USA, there was a girl called Jenny.

AGetting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal. But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with mo re homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’ bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.1. What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on?A. Learning problems and lack of sleep.B. Teenagers’ sleep-related diseases.C. Activities to prevent sleeplessness.D.American kids’ sleeping habits.2. How many hours of sleep do 11-year-olds need every day?A. 7 hours.B. 10 hours.C. 8 hours.D. 18 hours.3. Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon?A. They are affected by certain body chemicals.B. They tend to do things that excite them.C. They follow their parents’ examples.D. They don’t need to go to school early.BSurviving Hurricane Sandy(飓风桑迪)Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special, ” she says.On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily(临时地，暂时地) attend a school in Brooklyn.In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. V olunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,”Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it. ”Natalie’s choice was to help.She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway, ” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than be fore. ”4. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane , she found______.A. her neighborhood was seriously damagedB. some friends had lost their livesC. her school had moved to BrooklynD. the elderly were free from suffering5. According to paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most?A. The people helping Rockaway rebuild.B. The people trapped in high-rise building.C. The volunteers donating money to survivors.D. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.6. How did Natalie help the survivors?A. She gave her toys to the kids.B. She took care of younger children.C. She called on the White House to help.D. She built an information sharing platform.7. What does the story intend to tell us?A. E ast or West, home is best.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. Little people can make a big difference.D. Technology is power.CSuddenly another thought went through Kate’s mind like an electric shock. An express train was due to go past about thirty minutes later. If it were not stopped, that long train, full of passengers, would fall into the stream. “Someone must go to the station and warn the station-master,” Kate thought. But who was to go? She would have to go herself. There was no one else.In wind and rain she started on her difficult way. Soon she was at the bridge that crossed the Des Moines River, a bridge also built of wood, just like the bridge across Honey Creek. The storm had not washed this away, but there was no footpath across it. She would have to cross it by stepping from sleeper(枕木) to sleeper. With great care she began the dangerous crossing, sometimes on her hands and knees, hardly daring to look down between the sleepers into the wild flood waters below. If she should slip, she would fall between the sleepers, into the rapidly flowing stream.At last-she never knew how long it had taken her-she felt solid ground under her feet. But there was no time to rest. She still had to run more than half a mile and had only a few minutes left. Unless she reached the station before the express did, many, many lives would be lost.She did reach the station just as the train came into sight. Fortunately the station-master was standing outside. “The bridge is down! Stop the train! Oh, please stop it!” Kate shouted breathlessly.The station-master went pale. He rushed into the station building and came back with a signal light. He waved the red light as the train came into the station. It was not a second too early.8. What did Kate decide to do?A. Visit the station-masterB. Check the signal light.C. Meet the passengers.D. Stop the express train.9. Which of the following words best describes Kate’s journey?A. Fruitless.B.Risky.C. Well-planned.D. Boring.10. Why did the station-master turn pale?A. He suddenly fell ill.B. He realized the danger.C. He discovered his mistake.D. He became over-excited.第二节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。

I thought to myself I could do this. I begged my mother to let me send for a full set of goods. Two weeks later when the cards arrived, I tore off the brown paper wrapper, seized the cards and dashed out of the house. Three hours later, I returned home with no card and a pocket full of money announcing, “Mum, all the people couldn’t wait to buy my cards!” A salesperson was born.When I was twelve years old, my father took me to see Zig Ziegler. I remember sitting in that dark lecture hall listening to Mr. Ziegler raise everyone’s spirits up to the ceiling. I left there feeling like I could do anything. When we got to the car, I turned to my father and said, “Dad, I want to be a motivational (激励斗志的) speaker just like Mr. Ziegler.” A dream was born.Recently I began following my dream of motivating others. After a four-year relationship with a major fortune 100 company（财富百强企业）beginning as a sale trainer and ending as a regional sale manager, I decide to leave the company at the height of my career.(事业)I made my decision to start my own company and leave my secure position after attending a regional sales meeting. The vice-president of our company delivered a speech that changed my life. He asked us, “If an angel would grant（答应）you three wishes, what would they be?”After giving us a moment to write down the three wishes, he then asked us, “Why do you need an angel?”I would never forget the power I felt at that moment. I realized that everything I had got --- the graduate degree, the successful sales career, speaking engagements, training and managing for a fortune 100 company had prepared me for this moment.Having made that decision, I was immediately tested. One week after I gave notice, my husband was laid off (下岗) from his job, which made our financial situation really tough. It was inviting to turn back to my former company, knowing they wanted me to stay but I was certain that if I went back, I would never leave. I decided I still wanted to move forward rather than end up with a mouth full of “if only” later on.When I held fast to my dream, even during the difficult times, the great wonders really began to happen. In a short time period my husband found a better job, and I was able to book several speaking engagements with new customers. A motivational speaker was finally born!48.
