2022-2023学年北京市海淀区高一（下）期末英语试卷一、阅读理解：本大题共11小题，共22分。

ADo you know someone who has a hard time opening bottles or jars at home？Eighth-grade students in Mark Bolt's engineering class were tasked with making changes to a product to make it easier for people with challenges to use. Rather than requiring step-by-step directions for creating their projects，Mr.Bolt preferred to leave students' creative paths open.Let's see some of the students' products.A Device That Easily Opens BottlesTo find a solution for her grandmother who had difficulty in opening bottles，Alana looked at existing bottle openers and then she created her own.She used a piece of wood shaped like a cellphone.Next，she made three holes of different sizes in the wood so that they could match common bottle cap sizes.Each hole also had a layer of dried，sticky hot glue，which provided a firm grip for the bottle caps.With a simple twist of the device，her grandmother could open bottles without help.A Coffee Cup With A Supportive "Thumb"Due to arthritis，a disease that causes pain in or around the joints，Robert's grandfather had trouble holding a coffee cup.Robert simplified a robotic "third thumb"device created by a London designer.He used rubber bands and a 3 D-printed plastic form to make the extra "thumb"which can firmly support the bottom of a cup.A Reading ToolMichael noticed how dyslexia——a common reading disorder，made it difficult for a friend to follow along on pages full of text.It is a language-processing condition.The brain tends to confuse the order of numbers，letters and other images.So，Michael created a small adjustable window-blind-style device."My friend could isolate small sections of text while reading，"he said.1.Alana's grandmother could open bottles easily by ______ .A. sticking bottle caps to the deviceB. connecting the device to a cellphoneC. twisting the device that has holes in itD. cutting holes of different sizes in wood2.What did Robert do to help his grandfather？______A. He reformed a process to form a metal "thumb".B. He created a simpler"thumb"device in the cup.C. He added plastic materials to the "thumb"device.D. He used bands and a 3 D-printed form to make a"thumb".3.Which of the following words can best describe the students in the passage？______A. Independent and patient.B. Creative and considerate.C. Ambitious and hardworking.D. Open-minded and generous.BSports have been a big part of my life.I played flag football in elementary school and middle school.In high school，before I got hurt，I was on the swim team and track team.It was the summer going into my senior year when I was hit by a car.The doctor informed me that there was no hope of full recovery.As a sixteen-year-old boy，you have a lot of self-doubts and are trying to find out who you are.So，you throw in an accident on top of that and it kind of threw a loop into things for me.It was definitely hard，the physical pain of therapy，and learning how to live life.And there was the emotional pain，too.The mental suffering of being paralyzed （瘫痪） is more severe than the physical pain.When I was in the hospital，one of the guys from the University of Wisconsin （UW） that played on the Whitewater wheelchair basketball team visited.He told me about adaptive sports，and I thought that sounded good.He gave my information to the local junior wheelchair basketball coach in Milwaukee.I started playing that October.Playing basketball was a really good thing for me.It let me see a bunch of different people in the same situation as me.It was good to have a group of friends for support.I studied at Southwest Minnesota State University for three years and then transferred to UW-Whitewater for my senior year.I was invited in 2013 to try out for the National Team and made it.That was always my goal.A lot of people would ask me what my backup plan was——I didn't have one，to be honest.The Paralympics is the pinnacle of our sports.It's been pretty easy for me to stay motivated.We were the best team in the 2016 Paralympics.And this team was way too good just to win one medal，so I had to be back in 2020.I'm not sure right now about getting ready for the 2024 Paralympics.The team is growing and going through some turnover.I honestly don't know what my future holds.I just want to be around the people that I care about and careabout me—— whether that's on the National Team，or just my friends back home.They are my security blanket，the good people in my life.However，one thing I'm sure is that playing basketball is still number one，with a focus on the Paralympics. Now I am signed as a player with a team over in Spain and I'm exploring what the next chapters of my life might be like.4.What does the underlined word"that"in Paragraph 2 refer to？______A. Being unable to do sports.B. Being hit by a car at sixteen.C. Feeling uncertain about himself.D. Suffering physical and mental pains.5.What helped the author regain passion for sports after the accident？______A. Playing wheelchair basketball.B. Transfer ring to UW-Whitewater.C. Trying out for the National Team.D. Winning a medal in the 2016 Paralympics.6.What can we infer about the author？______A. He plans to switch to flag football in the future.B. He will graduate from UW-Whitewater in 2024.C. He wants to play basketball at the 2024 Paralympics.D. He intends to coach wheelchair basketball players in Spain.7.What's the passage mainly about？______A. How playing basketball empowered the author.B. How people around the author supported him.C. How the author's backup plan shaped him.D. How the author enjoyed his college life.CHave you ever bought a new car and started noticing the exact color and model of car everywhere Has that type of car just become popular in your city Were they there before？Or are you just going crazy？You're not going crazy.The reason you are now just noticing them is what psychologists call "priming".Basically，the cars were always there.You just didn't recognize them consciously.However，when that certain model of car becomes part of your conscious thinking，you start "automatically"recognizing all of the other cars that are the same，because you are already"primed"to do so.The priming effect takes many forms.In one study，students were asked to walk around a room for 5 minutes at a rate of 30 steps per minute，which was about one-third their normal pace.After this brief experience，the participants were much quicker to recognize words related to old age，such as forgetful，old，and lonely. Reciprocal priming effects tend to produce a coherent reaction：if you are primed to think of old age，you would tend to act old，and acting old would reinforce the thought of old age.This research shows that the way we think influences the way we act，and the way we act influences the way we think.A similar conclusion was reached by the American psychologist William James a century ago，but he emphasized the effect on feeling."Actions seem to follow feeling，but really actions and feeling go together；and by regulating the action，which is under the more direct control of the will，we can indirectly regulate the feeling，which is not.Thus the path to cheerfulness，should our cheerfulness be lost，is to sit up cheerfully and to act and speak as if cheerfulness were already there."So，that's it.If you want to be happy，just sit up and act happy.Based on these scientific findings，we can adopt certain priming effects to help make ourselves consistently happier.One thing we have in common is our ability to think，and thus feel.Pleasant thoughts have been proven to produce the chemicals that make us feel happy，particularly thoughts and feelings of gratitude.When we purposefully go through and think about the things we're grateful for and deliberately feel as much gratitude as we can，we are flooding our mind with the "happy chemicals".Furthermore，by consciously thinking，feeling and expressing gratitude，we will not only be happier in the moment，we will be"primed"to recognize the things in our life to appreciate.Each time this happens，the"happy chemicals"will be produced.Do this every day and we will become consistently happier.This makes up for the momentary happiness we gain from eating chocolate or buying new clothes.More than that，combining thoughts of gratitude with happy acts like smiling and laughing will have a supplementary positive effect on our state of mind.8.Which of the following is an example of the priming effect？______A. Walking much faster after attending a lecture about old age.B. Donating money to the poor after seeing pictures of cute cats.C. Learning about various types of cars after purchasing the first car.D. Completing SO P as SOUP rather than SOAP after seeing the word EAT.9.What does the underlined word"reciprocal"in Paragraph 3 probably mean？______A. Related.B. Two-way.C. Well-rounded.D. Opposite.10.What will the author probably agree with？______A. Eating or shopping leads to consistent feelings of happiness.B. Our will has greater control over emotions than over actions.C. Happy chemicals make us think about the things we're grateful for.D. Practicing gratitude frequently prepares us for long-term happiness.11.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？______A. Prime Yourself to Be Happier.B. Share Happiness to Enhance Wellbeing.C. Why Gratitude Is Important in Psychology.D. How Happy Chemicals Affect People's Thoughts.二、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共10分。

北京市海淀区2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题

北京市海淀区2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题一、完形填空It was a Saturday afternoon when I was just ten. My grandmother entered the dining room with the mail and placed it by my mother, who 1 the thin envelope rather cautiously, paused and then tossed it into the wastepaper basket.“You can at least open it,” my grandmother said.“I don’t want to see one more 2 letter. Period!” my mother answered.“Poor Mommy,” I said. “Don’t feel bad. You’re a good writer.” But the words of a ten-year-old, while appreciated, were lost in the thick air of adult 3 that filled the room.Ignoring my mother’s response, my grandmother turned the basket over and pulled out the envelope. She 4 open the letter and read it silently. My heart was racing with expectation as she suddenly straightened up and charged at her daughter, pushing the letter under my mother’s nose. “There! There!”“Please, Mother,” my mother said sadly as she pushed the letter away.“Read it!” my grandmother pushed it back. “It’s an 5 !”My mother stopped. She looked first at me, then at my grandmother. Slowly, she read the words: “We are 6 to inform you...”I watched her face turn from 7 to joy. She jumped up and hugged my grandmother, whose face was now shining as if saying 8 I knew you would succeed.Now, years later, whenever I am hesitant to open my own letters in fear of rejection (拒绝), I can feel my mother and grandmother reach for the basket, 9 me to open them. And I also have my son to cheer me up. “Don’t worry, Mommy. You’re a good writer.” I know it no longer matters whether the mail holds an acceptance or a rejection, for I have learned about the power of 10 support.1．A．eyed B．handed C．opened D．received 2．A．invitation B．rejection C．explanation D．recommendation 3．A．anger B．concern C．confusion D．tension4．A．cut B．tore C．forced D．broke5．A．award B．apology C．acceptance D．advertisement 6．A．relieved B．regretful C．happy D．sad 7．A．disbelief B．dissatisfaction C．disagreement D．disappointment 8．A．calmly B．gratefully C．patiently D．proudly 9．A．encouraging B．allowing C．reminding D．instructing 10．A．unchangeable B．unconditional C．unforgettable D．unintentional二、语法填空阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。

Back in 2008, I was teaching Concepts of Fitness in a high school.

"I did it! I broke the record!" he shouted as I was still gathering information to 4 what I had promised him. I joined in with the high-fives and fist bumps 5 him.The next day, it was done! G-A-L-E. Huge blue letters with white edges, the school colors. I could see his excitement even surpassed the success itself.

By 1928, the rest of the world did, too. At the age of 41 she was living in New York City and becoming a well﹣known painter. Still, O'Keeffe wasn't happy. New York had been a good source of ideas for almost ten years. Now those ideas were drying up. O'Keeffe felt like she needed a change. She had visited New Mexico in 1917 with her sister. The wide open space had thrilled her. "Maybe I should go back," she thought. In April of 1929, O'Keeffe packed her bags.The wide open space of New Mexico drew O'Keeffe in. She spent hours just watching the sky change. Because the light was so clear, she felt like she could see for the first time. The beauty of the land renewed her. She couldn't wait to start painting. Cow and horse skulls and desert flowers filled her canvases (画布). The colors of the desert inspired O'Keeffe. As a result, she made new choices in her artwork. "The color up there is different," she explained. She loved the dusty blues and greens.That August, O'Keeffe went home to New York. It was the start of a pattern. Each spring, she traveled to New Mexico to paint. These trips restored her spirit. Then, in the fall, she would return to New York. There, she showed her work. Each time O'Keeffe visited New Mexico, she explored a little more.The bleached animal bones and skulls that O'Keeffe found excited her because she could see their special beauty. The bones didn't mean death to O'Keeffe. To her, they showed the lasting beauty of the desert. The landscapes, clear light, and bright colors also spoke to her. She often painted close﹣ups of the rocks and mountains. Later, she began to travel more in search of new ideas. However, she always came back to New Mexico.As O'Keeffe grew older, her eyesight began to fail. Still, O'Keeffe wasn't ready to give up. Her friend Juan Hamilton helped her work with watercolors. He also taught her to sculpt. As a result, she made art into her 90s. When she died at the age of 98, Hamilton sprinkled her ashes over the desert. Her body became part of the land that had touched her art and her life.（1）O'Keeffe was unhappy in New York in 1928 because .A．she was lack of the creative ideasB．she felt disappointed about her jobC．she was not successful as an artistD．she felt bored about life in a big city（2）After her trips to New Mexico, O'Keeffe .A．received great reputation thereB．discovered the meaning in her lifeC．chose to settle down in that countryD．got new thoughts from the scenery（3）What can we know about O'Keeffe from the passage？A．She was never afraid of failure and death.B．She was devoted and passionate about art.C．She was patient with the coming chances.D．She was curious about the nature of people.（4）Which of the following could be the best title for this article？A．Lifestyle in the Desert B．Special Love for ArtC．Inspiration from the Desert D．Modern Women Artists8．阅读理解"You'll get square eyes!" my mother used to say as I sat for hour after hour glued to the TV. I ignored her, of course. Past﹣forward a few decades and now I'm the parent. My 5﹣year﹣old lives in a world where screens aren't fixed pieces of furniture. You can't even avoid them by going outside. Screens are not only in our pockets; they're everywhere.The concerns have grown with the screens. In the past decade, we have heard that they will damage our mental health. Many of us feel more distracted by them, feeling guiltier and more tired as a result.The apps and websites we can access on our phones have also sparked widespread concern. Big tech companies are also good at making use of our need for social recognition, hooking us on likes, retweets and follower counts. Social media has created a culture of mass narcissism (自恋), which has led many to worry about the emotional stresses on teenagers. A quick online search brings up dozens of papers linking screen use or social media with harmful effects on mental health, including depression and suicide.Such statements are alarming. They are also widely believed, thanks to popular books like iGen by Jean Twenge, which claims that digital technology has ruined a generation. Yet, Amy Orben at the University of Oxford, who studies the impact of digital technology and social media in particular on mental health, holds different views. She claims that the underlying data can be used to tell different stories. She also spotted shortcomings in several large studies that claimed to show correlations (相关性) between the use of devices with screens and depression in users.Twenge stands by her own finding, pointing in turn to what she considers flaws in Orben's research methods. For David Max, at Royal College of Child Health in London, the effect of screen time and social media use on mental health remains speculative. "We cannot regard social media overall as good or bad," says Davie. "We don't know whether in individual cases social media is not responsible," he says.The explosion of mobile phone use has revolutionized our lives. I can download movies, write articles, communicate with my family and broadcast to the world all at the push of a button. Rather than impose constraints (限制), we should take a look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with the activities and lifestyle.Every new technology with widespread impact has given rise to new fears. So the best bet may simply be to ask yourself what level of screen use makes you and those around you happy and try to stick to it. If you find yourself over addictive, don't panic﹣and certainly don't feel guilty. Nobody knows anything worth getting scared about.（1）According to the passage, people give likes, retweet or count followers to .A．share one's lifestyles B．show respect for othersC．seek social recognition D．relieve emotional stresses（2）The underlined word "speculative" probably means " ".A．doubtful B．specific C．important D．abstract（3）What can be learned from the passage？A．Teenagers are more affected by screen use both physically and mentally.B．Orben claims it is far too early to blame screen use for ruining a generation.C．Big tech companies help to produce many research papers on mental health.D．Twenge mainly introduces the overall benefits of digital technology in her books.（4）The passage is written to .A．encourage readers to reduce the time of screen useB．share different opinions on the effects of screen useC．explain why screen use may have negative effects on peopleD．relieve people's concerns and worries about the use of screens1小题；每小题8分，共8分）9．阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题.Go, commonly known in China as weiqi, is a board game for two players that needs logical (逻辑的) strategies. To win, the player must use black and white playing pieces to surround more field than the other player. The game was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago. It enjoys a wide fan base, mostly in East Asia ﹣but it is becoming more popular in other areas of the world.Schreiber, vice chair of Berlin Go Association, was introduced to the game 16 years ago, but thought the game rather boring at first. Similarly, Urban, chair of Berlin Go Association, accidentally discovered a book on Go on his mother's bookshelf when he was 37 years old. "I tried to understand the rules because I love board games and I did not get it," added Urban. But they both found the game more and more interesting after practice. "It's like speaking to another but with your hands. You make a very direct message," explained Schreiber.Schreiber recommended children learn Go because he believed it could be beneficial for them. "They learn that there is always someone stronger and they learn that it's okay to lose. They learn how to improve from their mistakes and say tomorrow will be better than today," he explained.To the experienced players, Go can be very addictive, as it carries meanings not just in leisure, but also in culture. Many are too quick to judge other people's cultures. Confucius said, "Tell me, I'll forget；Show me, I may remember；Involve me, and I will understand. " With Go, people only get stronger if they play against different players. With culture, one need ot go and talk to people, even better if in their language. If you can't, maybe it's enough to use the Go board as the language.As cooperation between China and Germany deepens in many aspects of life, efforts have been made to further popularize Go in Europe. The European. Go Congress has been hosting annual competitions since 1983. Training courses are also offered, and professional players from China are invited to deliver lectures for game loves in Europe.（1）When was Go invented in China？（2）How did Schreiber and Urban feel about Go after practice？（3）Why did Schreiber recommend children learn Go？（4）What has happened as a cooperation between China and Germany deepens？答案解析部分1．【答案】sang；were joined；touching【知识点】语法填空【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了国庆70周年青少年唱起《我和我的祖国》，令人感动的一幕。

However, she always came back to New Mexico.As O’Keeffe grew older, her eyesight began to fail. Still, O’Keeffe wasn’t ready to give up. Her friend Juan Hamilton helped her work with watercolors. He also taught her to sculpt. As a result, she made art into her 90s. When she died at the age of 98, Hamilton sprinkled her ashes over the desert.

I ignored her, of course. Past-forward a few dec ades and now I’m the parent. My5-year-old lives in a world where screens aren’t fixed pieces of furniture. You can’t even avoid them by going outside. Screens are not only in our pockets; they’re everywhere.The concerns have grown with the screens. In the past decade, we have heard that they will damage our mental health. Many of us feel more distracted by them, feeling guiltier and more tired as a result.The apps and websites we can access on our phones have also sparked widespread concern. Big tech companies are also good at making use of our need for social recognition, hooking us on likes, retweets and follower counts. Social media has created a culture of mass narcissism (自恋), which has led many to worry about the emotional stresses on teenagers. A quick online search brings up dozens of papers linking screen use or social media with harmful effects on mental health, including depression and suicide.Such statements are alarming. They are also widely believed, thanks to popular books like iGen by Jean Twenge, which claims that digital technology has ruined a generation. Yet, Amy Orben at the University of Oxford, who studies the impact of digital technology and social media in particular on mental health, holds different views. She claims that the underlying data can be used to tell different stories. She also spotted shortcomings in several large studies that claimed to show correlations (相关性) between the use of devices with screens and depressionin users.Twenge stands by her own finding, pointing in turn to what she considers flaws in Orben’s research methods. For David Max, at Royal College of Child Health in London, the effect of screen time and social media use on mental health remains speculative. “We cannot regard social media overall as good or bad,” says Davie. “We don’t know whether in individual cases social media is not responsible,” he says.The explosion of mobile phone use has revolutionized our lives. I can download movies, write articles, communicate with my family and broadcast to the world all at the push of a button. Rather than impose constraints (限制), we should take a look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with the activities and lifestyle.Every new technology with widespread impact has given rise to new fears. So the best bet may simply be to ask yourself what level of screen use makes you and those around you happy and try to stick to it. If you find yourself over addictive, don’t panic—and certainly don’t feel guilty. Nobody knows anything worth getting scared about.21．According to the passage, people give likes, retweet or count followers to __________. A．share one’s lifestyles B．show respect for othersC．seek social recognition D．relieve emotional stresses22．The underlined word “speculative” probably means “__________”.A．doubtful B．specificC．important D．abstract23．What can be learned from the passage?A．Teenagers are more affected by screen use both physically and mentally.B．Orben claims it is far too early to blame screen use for ruining a generation.C．Big tech companies help to produce many research papers on mental health. D．Twenge mainly introduces the overall benefits of digital technology in her books. 24．The passage is written to __________.A．encourage readers to reduce the time of screen useB．share different opinions on the effects of screen useC．explain why screen use may have negative effects on peopleD．relieve people’s concerns and worries about the use of screens第II卷（非选择题)三、语法填空阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空，在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。
