高一英语下学期期中试题(5)
阜蒙县第二高中2017~2018学年度第二学期高一期中考试英语试卷时间：100分钟分数：120分第一部分：阅读理解（共两节；第一节：共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）AOn the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle(迷宫) that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be?I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.Since then, I've been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some outofclass activities because you'll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn't straight A's.Most important of all, be who you are, whether you're a “fool”， an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.1. The main reason for the author's fear on his first day is that ________.A．he was not familiar with the new surroundingsB．his schoolmates were unfriendly to himC．he was unable to work out the puzzleD．his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry2. From the author's first day experience we can infer that ________.A．he didn't know the right way to classB．he got to school before classes beganC．he was fond of the school immediately.D．his home was far from the school3. After his first week at school, the author ________.A．was still not accustomed to the scheduleB．gradually adjusted himself to the new schoolC．found high school not so challenging as he had imaginedD．ran for monitor of his class against three other students4. According to the passage, the secret of the author's success lies mainly in________.A．making more friends B．getting more A's at schoolC．being who he really is D．joining in out of class activitiesBEvery day we go to school and listen to teachers, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends --- you are in a situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease in ordinary conversation but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.5. When you speak to the class, you should speak __________.A．as loudly as possible B．loudly C．in a lowvoice D．forcefully6. The situation in the class is _________ that in your house.A．not very different from B．not the same asC．the same as D．sometimes the same as7. The main idea of this passage is __________.A．that we should talk in different ways in different situationsB．that we must speak loudlyC．that we must keep silent at any time D．that we must talk with the classCLong bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”Drink Good Wet Root Beer.”Fill up with Pacific Gas.”Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless （鲁莽的） or daring, the ride can be as thrilling （惊心动魄的） as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap,with your hands on the armrests even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.8. According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A. Advertisements on the billboards.B. Films on television.C. Buses on the road.D. Gas stations.9. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To give the writer’s opinion about long bus trips.B. To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C. To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D. To describe the billboards along the road.10. The writer of this passage would probably favor .A. bus drivers who aren’t recklessB. driving aloneC. a television set on the busD. no billboards along the road11. The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because .A. the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB. they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in betweenC. the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD. both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.12. The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are.A. comfortableB. excitingC. tiringD. boringDTokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time.In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to go. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that, it is different when one wants to walk.At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London's Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when the night-clubs are closing and every-body wants to go home. There are 35,000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty(空的).During the day, most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time.In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.13. Tokyo is different from London in that ______.A. it has a larger populationB. there are more traffic jamsC. night clubs are sometimes emptyD. it is more difficult to go somewhere on foot14. Fires break out___________ in Tokyo according to the writer.A. not very oftenB. only several times a dayC. quite oftenD. very seldom15. Japanese trains ______A. often leave and arrive on timeB. are often crowdedC. are the main means people use to travel to and from workD. all of the above第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Everyone wants to achieve happiness and smile．16 How can you find real happiness and smile? By getting rich? In case you are scratching your head，looking for some reasons or ideas to be happy, here are a few．Throw an impromptu(即兴的) party. 17 An impromptu one increases the joy to a new level. And of course making other people happy is bound to have the same effect on you.Treat yourself. Sometimes all it takes to make one happy is a little ind ulgence(放纵). So, go ahead and grab a cup of coffee and sit inside a blanket with a good book! You will be surprised at how happy it makes you．18 Happiness can be transformed! When we feel happy and excited, it can lift the spirits of others. Your simple gesture can transform a person’s day and get him or her prepared to take on any challenge.Have a conversation with a parent. If you are like most kids, you possibly spend more time texting or surfing the Internet than talking to your family. 19 You will be surprised at the feeling of joy that it brings to you.Finally, don’t forget to be happy every day! While International Day of Happiness may come about only once a year, happiness is around you all day and night. 20A. You just have to seek it out and grab it．B. But life is hard，so it is very difficult to find real happiness and smile．C. Most of your family members show no interest in texting or the Internet．D. Set aside your mobile phone for a few minutes and have a chat with a family member.E. Be friendly to others and smile at a stranger．F. Nothing makes people happier than being invited to a party.G. You should try to celebrate the Day of Happiness every day and everywhere．第二部分英语知识运用第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）“Mum, can I invite my classmate Brett over to stay tomorrow night, please?

Throughout life, we come across many people who impact us in a way. The person who left a great impact on me is my dad.Three months after turning fourteen, my life was great. I was getting settled into a high school; my grades were already starting off greatly and I was making friends. One day as I came home from school, I walked into our living room, finding my mom and dad talking. My parents turned to me and told me to sit down because there was something important they had to tell me. I soon found out that my dad’s liver (肝脏) was failing and he needed an immediate transplant. I was shocked and confused. He was working and never looked sick. My parents told me not to worry because everything would be fine. Four months had passed and my dad still had not received a new liver; he was progressively getting worse. His body seemed to be getting weaker, but he constantly said he was fine.It was getting hard for my family and me. My dad had to quit his job leaving my mom to be the only provider. I had to take on the responsibility of cleaning the house, cooking meals and checking on my dad while my mom was at work. I had to cut back on hanging with my friends because my dad was beginning to go in and out of the hospital. My focus for school was starting to slip. So were my grades. Two nights before my school spring break, my mom received a call from the hospital that my dad had been in a car accident and that he was in hospital. Surprisingly, my dad hadn’t received a scratch on him. Then next night my mom received a call from the doctor stating that there was a liver that matched my dad’s body and that he needed to get to the hospital immediately.Para. 1My mom and I rushed to the hospital and my dad was brought into surgery._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________Pare. 2Having to take on so many responsibility at home and constantly worn about my dad has helped shaped me into the person I am today._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________河北省邢台市2020-2021学年高一下学期期末英语试题47．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Megan Piphus Peace is one of them: In late 2021, she became the show’s first full-time black woman puppeteer, playing a 6-year-old black girl named Gabrielle. Last month, she officially left her real estate career. “I always dreamed of working in television, but I never imagined myself being on Sesame Street,” she says.Piphus Peace, now 29, grew up watching Sesame Street. As a young child, she considered the puppets to be her companions, not realizing until she was older that they weren’t real. She has been pursuing puppeteering since then. At Vanderbilt University, where she studied economics, she was known as the “Vanderbilt Ventriloquist (腹语表演者).” She even appeared on The Tonight Show in 2012 and America’s Got Talent in 2013.One of Piphus Peace’s teachers, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph, who played the Sesame Street character Abby Cadabby in 2006, says that Piphus Peace is a gifted storyteller and natural leader. “To say that I was amazed by Megan would be an understatement,”Carrara-Rudolph says. “I was inspired by her loving heart, strength of character, humor, humanity and what an energetic creative force she is.”Although Piphus Peace submitted her first video audition (试演) to Sesame Street in 2017, she didn’t hear back until 2020, when Matt Vogel, the puppet captain of the show, reached out to her. “She comes from a different kind of puppetry background than most of other Sesame Street puppet performers,” Vogel says. “We went to college to learn puppetry, or acting schools, etc., but Megan learned the art of ventriloquism by herself.”4．What do we know about Piphus Peace?A．She used to work in television. B．She is now part of Sesame Street. C．She was called Gabrielle at a young age.

C．She found it hard to distinguish them. D．She regarded them as her friends. 6．What does paragraph 3 strongly stress?A．Carrara-Rudolph’s impact on Piphus PeaceB．The striking characteristics of Sesame StreetC．Carrara-Rudolph’s opinion of Piphus PeaceD．The character Abby Cadabby in Sesame Street7．Why is Piphus Peace different from most other performers according to Vogel? A．She is a self-trained ventriloquist. B．She is the most popular performer. C．She has played many different characters. D．She is the only female actress in the show.Reading books can obviously make you a better, smarter entrepreneur. According to a 2018 study of over 160,000 adults in 31 countries, the more books that were present in participants’ childhood homes, the more competent they now were as adults with skills in literacy, mathematics, and technological problem-solving. Researchers note that book-oriented socialization, indicated by home library size, equips youth with lifelong tastes, skill and knowledge.Growing up with home libraries boosts adult skills in literacy, numeracy and technological problem-solving beyond the benefits acquired from parental education or your own educational or occupational attainment. Kids who grow up in a home where reading is valued and modeled are more likely to be good readers. Strangely enough, though, advanced education doesn’t necessarily offset the “lots of books in the home” advantage. Adults who grew up with relatively few books in their homes and later earned a college degree had literacy levels approximately equal to adults who grew up in homes with large libraries but only attended school for nine years.Jessica Stillman [of Inc.] writes, surrounding yourself with more books than you could ever read says good things about your mind. Those books serve as a constant reminder of all the things you don’t know — which helps keep you intellectually hungry and curious. And possibly, this will keep you a little more modest, since research shows the quicker you are to admit you don’t know something, the faster you can then learn it. As Jeff Bezos says, a key sign of intelligence is the willingness to change your mind, something that only happens if you’re willing to admit that your current thinking may not be the best thinking. Modesty, learning and the willingness to change your mind when new data presents itself: That’s another three bonus every entrepreneur can benefit from.8．What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about the research?A．Tough process. B．Inspiring discovery.C．Numerous data. D．Advanced technology.9．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “offset” in paragraph 2?A．Compete with. B．Differ from. C．Go against. D．Compensate for. 10．Why does the author mention Jessica?A．To keep readers intellectually hungry. B．To stress the significance of modesty.C．To remind readers of their ignorance. D．To evidence the benefits of home library.11．What is the passage mainly about?A．Home library size indicates lifelong skills. B．Home reading equals to a college degree.C．Modesty makes a promising entrepreneur. D．Childhood libraries lead to adulthood success.The Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.When you are on a bicycle, you have the strength of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode (方式) of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车), now is your chance, because they have those too.A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.12．You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because ________.A．you will break the traffic rulesB．you will cause much noiseC．you can’t enjoy the beautiful sights wellD．you can’t drive into some parks13．The following advantages of hiring bikes are mentioned EXCEPT that ________. A．you can take photos of animalsB．it is a cheap way of travelingC．you can get a clearer sight of animalsD．it is a good way to do sunbathing14．Which of the following words has the same meaning as the word underlined in the third paragraph?A．advantage B．weakness C．appearance D．disadvantage15．What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A．How to hire bikes on Gold Coast.B．What kinds of bikes there are in stores.C．What bikes are the most popular.D．Who can hire bikes on Gold Coast.二、七选五Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” 16 According to recent studies，the answer is a big YES，if the air quality in your camping area is good.17 If the air you’re breathing is clean-which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities-then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen.If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles (肌肉) and your brain.Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing (治愈). 18 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood (情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likelyto recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 19 It gives us a great feeling of peace.20 While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give is beneficial Vitamin D．To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin— put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D．A．Being in nature refreshes us.B．But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?C．Fresh air cleans our lungs.D．So what are you waiting for?E．Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.F．All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.G．Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.三、完形填空Music can make us happy, peaceful or sad.

Her movements are dramatic (激动人心的) when the music is 28 and gentle when the music is peaceful. As she 29 , Anderson listens for problems with balance, sound and style.To help young musicians better 30 how to play the music, Anderson might tell them to imagine a 31 and leisurely walk or a ship being tossed (颠簸) by waves.“It is music’s ability to 32 people that I value most,” said Anderson.

2017-2018学年建平中学高一第二学期期末考试英语试卷Section ADirections:After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.In colleges around the country, most students are also workers.The reality of college can be pretty different from the images __1__(present) in movies and television. Instead of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students __2__ tight schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too.This isn’t a temporary ph enomenon. The share of working students __3__ (be) on the rise since the 1970s, and one-fifth of students work year round. About one-quarter of those __4__ work while attending school have both a full-course load and a full-time job. The arrangement can help pay for tuition (学费) and living costs, obviously. And there’s value in it beyond the direct cause: such jobs __5__ also be critical for developing important professional and social skills that make __6__ easier to land a job after graduation. With many employers __7__(look) for students with already-developed skill sets, on-the-job training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on.But it’s not all upside. Even full-time work may not completely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses. The study notes that __8__ a student worked a full-time job at the federal minimum wage, they would earn just over $15,000 each year, certainly not enough __9__ for tuition, room, and board at many colleges without some serious financial aid. That means that though they’re sacrificing time away from the classroom, many working students will still graduate with at least some debt. And working full time can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all, by cutting into（减少） the time available for studying and attending classes.There is little reward for attending but not finishing college. Working too much while in school can create a cycle where students __10__(push) further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.1.【答案】presented【分析】考查非谓语. 过去分词做后置定语.2.【答案】with【分析】考查介词．根据句意：许多大学有时间表排得紧紧的学生．3.【答案】has been【分析】考查被动语态．根据句意：已经工作的大学生的占比从上世纪70年代有所上升，因为后面有since，所以被动要用现在完成时．4.【答案】who【分析】考查定语从句．先行词是those，指人，并在定语从句中做主语，所以用关系代词who引导．5.【答案】can【分析】考查情态动词．根据句意：这样的工作也可以是对……至关重要的 .6.【答案】it【分析】考查代词．Make it easier，其中，it作形式宾语 .7.【答案】looking【分析】考查非谓语．With引导伴随状语从句．8.【答案】if【分析】考查连词．If引导让步状语从句．9.【答案】to pay【分析】考查非谓语．不定式充当目的状语引导目的状语从句．10.【答案】are pushed【分析】考查被动语态．根据句意：读书时工作的太多会导致学生被推进一个……的循环里。

上海市⾼⼀第⼆学期期末考试英语试卷（共6套,含答案）上海市宝⼭区⾼⼀下学期期末考试英语试题Ⅱ.Grammar and VocabularySection A (10%)Directions: After reading the passages below,fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct.For the blanks with a given word,fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word;for the other blanks,use one word that best fits each blank.In France,there once lived a man named Louis Pasteur,who was a doctor of science.The thing (17) occupied his mind was the disease rabies."I must find the rabies germs that hide inside people and make them so sick (18) they die,"he thought. "Once I find that invisible enemy,I'll think of a way to kill it.I just know I (19) do it."Many people thought Pasteur was wasting his time.Some laughed at him and said,"You'll never do it.No one can find (20) invisible enemy!"Pasteur didn't care (21) people thought,he believed in (22) .He kept right on working.Meanwhile,in German,a boy named Joey was about to get into trouble.He wasn't a bad boy,he was just thoughtless,as children sometimes are.He was playing with a dog.But this dog was sick with rabies,(23) made the dog mad.When Joey got tired of playing with the dog,he started to go home.Unfortunately,the dog escaped from behind the fence and bit Joey.The invisible enemy—the rabies germs—were passed on from the dog to Joey.Soon the little boy was very sick.Everyone knew that if someone was bitten by a sick,mad dog,that person would become infected with rabies and die.His parents could only wait.But then there was news.Joey's mother saw it and shouted for joy."A doctor of science (24) (find) a way to save people like Joey!"she said."He says sick people like Joey have been infected by an invisible enemy,and he's found a way to kill it!" The man,of course,was Louis Pasteur.He had done what he had set out to do.Joey's parents quickly prepared Joey (25) the long journey to Paris."Dr.Pasteur,"said the mother upon their arrival at Pasteur's residence,"we've come a long way.Our little boy (26) (bite) by a mad dog,and he's very sick.Can you help us?""Perhaps,"said Pasteur."I've invented a vaccine（疫苗）.It is strong enough to kill the invisible enemy.Joey was finally saved and later became a gatekeeper at the Pasteur Institute.Section B (10%)Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.Each word can only be used once.Note that there is one word more than you need.A.threatB.certainC.developingD.necessarilyE.checkedF.potentialG.speciallyH.connectionI.preserveJ.exerciseK.healthyYou've probably heard of the list of factors that put you at risk for heart disease: smoking,poor diet,lack of_27_ and so on.But did you know that the health of your gums（⽛龈）may also affect your chance of_28_heart disease?More than 120 studies have investigated the_29_link between gum disease and heart disease.Most of them say that gum disease is a risk factor for heart disease and other diseases that affect blood vessels.This means that people with gum disease often develop heart disease but that gum disease doesn't_30_cause heart disease.Doctors and scientists have proposed a number of possible reasons for this connection.One common factor is inflammation（发炎）,which occurs when the body senses a_31_and sends white blood cells to attack it.This leads to painful swelling（肿胀）,which is the main symptom of gum disease.White inflammation hasn't been shown to cause heart disease,it often accompanies it.And as it turns out,the same types of bacteria often lead to inflammation in both diseases.It's also possible that the_32_has less to do with biology than with an individual's habits.Perhaps people who take good care of their teeth make other healthy choices that prevent heart disease.So what does this mean for your health?Since the role of gum disease in causing heart disease isn't_33_,don't take it for granted that taking care of your teeth will protect your heart.Certainly,brushing and cleaning are not replacement for exercise and a_34_diet.But keeping your mouth healthy and avoiding gum disease are still good goals to go after.They'll spare you pain and high dental bills and keep your bright smile complete.This research does mean that if you have gum disease,you should get your heart_35_this is especially true if you are at risk of heart disease for other reason,such as smoking.Who would have thought that your mouth and your heart would be connected?The body is a complex and mysterious thing,so do all you can to_36_it.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection A (14%)Directions: For each blank in the following passage,there are four words marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The secret to Dwanyne Johnson's success is simple—he gives people what they want.TROUBLED YOUTHWhen he was young,Johnson's family_37_with money,which led him down a bad path.While they lived in Hawaii,Johnson stole form tourists and high-end stores.When this_38_police involvement,he decided to make a_39_.

Rather than donating blood to her cause,you wave the insect away.But that rarely works.Your body usually ends up with one or more itchy（痒的）red welts somewhere.Are there better ways to drive the annoying insects away?Yes, indeed!Preventing mosquito bites can also stop infections with dangerous illness.Mosquito-borne disease such as the Zika virus or malaria have terrible results.Several million people worldwide die from disease carried by mosquitoes each year,adding urgency to the battle.Studies have shown that certain groups of people are easy to be bitten by mosquitoes.These include those who are pregnant,have a higher-than-normal boy temperature or have type O blood.These groups should be aware they are more attractive to mosquitoes and stay inside whenever possible,especially at dawn and dusk.Many breeds of mosquitoes are more likely to bite at these times.People should also wear light,bright colors as dark colors attract the insects.Rubbing mosquito repellents（驱蚊剂）on exposed skin keeps the insects away for a time.Studies show that those containing DEET are most effective.Depending on the brand of repellent,the chemical keeps mosquitoes away for 5 to 13 hours.Some plant oils can be used instead of DEET,but they require more frequent application-every two hours—and in greater concentrations.Oils such as lemon eucalyptus or citronella are two possibilities.Another chemical,permethrin,can be applied to clothing to ward off mosquitoes.The chemical sticks to the fabric and will last through a few washings.Clothing that has been factory-treated with the chemical is alsoavailable. The manufactures say that it will remain the permethrin for about 70 washings.Mosquito coil（圈，卷）also keep mosquitoes away.However,the smoke from them pollutes and can damage the lungs,so they should be used with care.When you're inside,simply plugging in some fans will keep mosquitoes away as they are weak fliers.Everyone wants to avoid mosquito bites,so try several methods to see what works for you.56.which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Mosquitoes usually don't like dark colors.B.Mosquitoes don't like people with type O blood.C.It's not easy to remove some chemical treated off clothing.D.It's not easy to use mosquito coils to drive mosquitoes off.57.What does the phrase ward off in Para 5 most probably mean?A.prevent fromB.take inC.break awayD.turn out58.What is the best title of the passage?A.How to get rid of mosquitoes.B.Keep mosquitoes away.C.Be aware of mosquitoes.D.Pay attention to mosquitoes.59.What does this article imply about mosquitoes?A.Electric fans can be used to blow mosquitoes away.B.People had better use the methods together to avoid mosquitoes.C.Mosquitoes would like to bite people at dawn or dusk.D.Different people should choose different ways to avoid mosquitoes.Section C (4%)Directions: Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.English is closely related to German,but it uses many words from French.B.English is a multi-culture,which has different background and people.C.This is partly because English includes words from so many languages.D.Over fifty countries have English as their official language and use it for higher education.E.Some English speakers use words only to fill pauses when they talk.F.People usually use some special words to avoid embarrassing occasions.Let's learn about EnglishIf you're reading this,you've probably already spent many hours studying English.But here are facts you may not know about the language:English is one of the most common languages in the world.Some experts estimate that English has about 339 million native speakers._60_.This does not include the United States,which has no official language.English is also the official language of the sky.That means all pilots use it on international flights._61_This is because a French-speaking ruler conquered England in the 11th century.English also includes words from many other languages.This is because people in British colonies spoke many languages.Words from many of those languages were added to English.Other words are added even today.As a result,English has one of the largest vocabularies of anylanguage.You've probably noticed that English spelling can be hard to predict.For example,the long "e"sound can be spelled eight different ways.And the letters—"ough"—can be pronounced nine ways!_62_Spelling of English words often reflected their origins.The most common letter used in English is "e".But more words begin with "s" than any other in the alphabet.Most English words thyme with at least one other word.But month,orange,silver and purple don't thyme with anything._63_Some common examples are like,just and basically.These words are called 'crutch words',and it's best to avoid them.People who use too many crutch words sound like they aren't sure what they're trying to say.However much you know about English,there's always more to learn about this strange and interesting language.Ⅳ.Translation (15%) (3+3+4+5)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.64.现在看来,学⽣必须下定决⼼学好英语⼝语了。
山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)
山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析）（满分：150分；考试时间：120分钟）学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The village of Hallstatt in Austria is a collection of old buildings. In summer, the mountains are green and the village is lovely. In winter, it’s like something out of a snow-covered fairy tale. Now it is being overrun with tourists, partly because it looks like the village from the movie Frozen. The town’s mayor is actually hoping that many tourists will stay away.Hallstatt is small. Fewer than 800 people live there. But the number of visitors who arrive each day is huge — up to 10,000 visitors a day. Hallstatt’s popularity first began when it became a World Heritage Site in 1997. But the number of visitors increased quickly after the release of Disney’s movie Frozen in 2013. Though much of Frozen was based on life in Norway, Hallstatt looks a lot like Arendelle, the main village in the movie. Some people believe that Arendelle was based on Hallstatt.Much of the tourism is driven by social media. Many of the visitors seem mainly interested in taking photos with the village in the background. Some local people feel stressed about it. With 10,000 visitors a day, that’s over 12 tourists for every person in Hallstatt. One man said his mother had woken up one day to find tourists in her bedroom.The mayor would prefer to have fewer tourists. He thinks the town would be just fine with about one third fewer visitors each year. Starting from this year, Hallstatt will begin a program to reduce the number of buses bringing visitors to the village.Before the tourism boomed, local people would leave Hallstatt to find work. Now many people depend upon the tourists for their living. Hotel rooms can cost between $350 and $450. And it costs over one dollar to use the public bathroom in Hallstatt. With 10,000 visitors a day, even toilets can be good business.1．What do we know about the village of Hallstatt in Austria?A．It has appeared in many famous movies.B．It is beautiful but crowded with tourists.C．It has a small population for its bad weather.D．It is an old village with poor customer service.2．What did the man mentioned in Paragraph 3 want to express?A．Visitors were welcome to stay at local homes.B．Local life was badly influenced by visitors.C．Social media brought visitors to his village.D．The locals had a close relationship with visitors.3．Which of the following best explains the word “boom” in the last Paragraph? A．Sigh. B．Drop. C．Decline. D．Rocket.4．What can we conclude from the text?A．Hallstatt is having fewer visitors for the high cost.B．Local people are satisfied with their life in Hallstatt.C．Tourism brings both trouble and benefits to local people.D．Local people have difficulty improving the housing service.Marie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian-Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read.I thought about it for a few seconds and replied, “Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection.I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Everyweek I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.On one occasion, Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carre. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers. Of course, I wished Miss Lantelme to hand the new mystery of John le Carre to me.All these memories flashed through my mind while I sweated my way through my work—out of breath, giving thanks to the librarians of the world, like Miss Lantelme, who gave me a lifetime of joy, not only the stories.5．What made the author interested in mysteries?A．The book her grandfather gave to her. B．The unknown feeling of a pre-teen girl.C．The professional service of Lantelme. D．The opinion her grandfather gave to her.6．What can we infer about the author from paragraph 3?A．She was interested in Agatha’s works B．She took exercise around the library.C．She bought a book from Lantelme.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported the US throws away more than 11 million tons of clothing every year. That is why some small businesses spotting the problem are beginning to recycle in ways they haven’t before.Create Good Company is a clothing company that tries to produce sustainable clothing and repurpose older clothing into updated fashionable items. Maggie Hendricks, the owner of Create Good Company, said, “If you can improve what you find, why wouldn’t you do that instead of buying new things? It’s a big issue not to create new waste. I would say we are 90% recycled materials.”According to the EPA, the average consumer(消费者)throws away 81.5 pounds of clothes every year. “Anywhere between 10%-17% of the waste that’s going into landfills(废弃物填埋场)is made up of things like textiles and clothing,” said Danny Katz with the CoPIRG Foundation. “A lot of the clothing that we’re producing doesn’t even get worn, so it’s going right to the landfill or even being burned and contributing to pollution that way. It’s really worrying.”This is why businesses like Create Good Company exist —to use outdated clothing and turn it into dresses or jackets. “There’s just so much waste and so many big companies that might not think about it,” Hendricks said. “Just standing with other like-minded people who are interested in sustainability is important.”Another important element Hendricks has focused on is creating these items and selling them at an affordable price. “Sustainability sometimes is green washed in companies and they make things more expensive,” Hendricks said. “That’s not how we become a sustainable world. I think making products affordable is important to me. I want to buy things that are better for the environment without throwing my pocketbook in the fire.”11．What makes Danny Katz worried?A．The use of old clothing. B．The cost of textile pollution. C．The effect of clothing waste. D．The future of the textile industry.12．What does Hendricks care more about when it comes to a sustainable product? A．Its price. B．Its sales.C．Its producer. D．Its quality.13．What is the best title for the text?A．The EPA’s measures to reduce textile waste.B．Consumers being aware of the seriousness of textile waste.C．Textile businesses’ social responsibility and their waste.D．Small businesses working to prevent textile waste.二、七选五MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear? 14 . It's similar to the music you listen to, but it's not exactly the same. That's because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called "elevator (电梯) music" because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name "Muzak". About one-third of the people in America listen to "Muzak" every day. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 15 .If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 16 .Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak doeswhat it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 17 . Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.18 . They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But otherpeople enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm. One way or another, Muzak affects everyone. Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!A．Some people don't like Muzak.B．The music gives them extra energy.C．Music is playing in the background.D．Factory workers produce 13 percent more.E．Muzak tends to help people understand music better.F．They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.G．Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.三、完形填空In the dead of last winter during the pandemic, the Berman family chose to fosterin all moved into their new home at the Canine Humane Network, a nonprofit rescuefrom their 31 on how they’re doing.”To date, the Bermans have 32 12 dogs from the Highland organizationin the past year.

Many people who used to collect their eggs to eat or to sell are now working to keep turtles safe.Those people are called poachers (偷猎者). Now, however, protection organizations are teaching former poachers how to safely collect the eggs and protect them before they hatch (孵化). The people who do this are paid about 37 cents per egg. That is four times more than they would earn from selling them illegally.One of the former poachers is Johnny Manlugay. “I’ve learned to love this work,”he said, adding that he did not know it was illegal to eat turtle eggs and their meat. He now collects the eggs carefully and brings them to a group called Coastal Underwater Resource Management Actions (CURMA), which takes the eggs and puts them under the sand in a safe place. When the baby turtles hatch, they are directed to the water.The turtles are called “pawikan” in the local language. They are at risk notonly from poachers, but also climate change and habitat loss.Carlos Tamayo is one of CURMA’s leaders. “We talked to the poachers, and it turned out poaching was just another means for them to earn a living,” he said. “They had no choice.”Cabagbag is over 40 years old. His wife and seven-year-old son sometimes help him collect turtle eggs. Since October, they have taken over 1,000 eggs to CURMA．Cabagbag said that once he received training and learned that the turtles were endangered, he stopped poaching.When the baby turtles hatch, many visitors come to watch them run down the beach and into the water. Cabagbag said seeing the turtles get safely into the water brings him a feeling of joy.4．What is one of the ways of the organizations to protect turtles? A．Teaching former poachers to collect and protect turtle eggs.B．Getting the locals to receive more education.C．Encouraging the locals to develop tourism.D．Helping raise the locals’ earnings.5．What can be known about Johnny Manlugay?A．He helps place the eggs under the sand.B．He encouraged his family to collect the eggs.C．He has taken more than 1,000 eggs from CURMA．D．He once lacked the awareness of protecting turtles.6．Which threat to turtles is not mentioned in the text?A．Poachers. B．Climate change. C．Ocean pollution. D．Habitat loss. 7．What can be the best title for the text?A．Turtles Are at Risk from Climate ChangeB．Former Turtle Poachers Are Now ProtectorsC．Turtle Population in the Philippines Is ChangingD．CURMA Is Offering Training of Turtle Protection to FarmersI never saw my father home from work late or ill, nor did I ever see my fathertake a “night out with the boys”. He had no hobbies but just took care of his family.For 22 years, since I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 am. He was always interested in my life----how my family was doing. The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia, England or Florida.Nine years ago when I bought me first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days, painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked was a glass of iced tea, and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy, for I had a law practice to run, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father.Five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set (秋千) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him. But again, I had laundry to do, and the house to clean.The morning on Sunday, January 16, 1995, my father telephoned me as usual, this time he had seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before.I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short.The call came at 4:40 am. That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida.I got on a plane immediately, and I vowed (发誓) that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him.I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am, but my father had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me.In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father, and even more about every single day.8．We know from the reading that the father_____.A．liked to paint housesB．had no friends around himC．was not healthy in his youthD．thought of his family as his all9．When her father painted her first house, the daughter_____.A．could only afford a glass of iced teaB．was too busy to talk to her fatherC．could do nothing but hold a paintbrushD．spent eight hours a day working with her father10．On January 16, 1995, the daughter felt that her father_____.A．seemed to be a little differentB．had no time to phone her as usualC．became interested in churchD．had forgotten to discuss some things with her11．Which is the best title of the reading?A．Painting HousesB．Daughter’s FamilyC．Father and ID．Father’s phone callsWhat will the future school look like is difficult to make clear, but most experts agree that the school will be electronic in the future ." Present-day schools will no longer exist in the next century," says a report in The Age. "At that time, future schools will become community-style centers, which run seven days a week,24 hours a day. ” At the same time, computers will surely become a central part of the school in the future.According to The Age, the distant learning will be popular and students will listen to teachers on computers. Going into classrooms on their computers, students will study at any time, which is very easy for them. However, it is necessary for students to go to the actual school in order to develop some social skills.The Seashore Primary School is an imaginary school in the future created by the Education Department of Australia. At this school, all the teachers and students have laptop computers . Teachers check messages and call students back on a special telephone system and students use telephones to search for information or speak to their experts who teach their lessons. Besides, all the lessons are related to all sorts of subjects and all the students have their own learning plans created by teachers .As one headmaster says, a laptop computer is students5 library, data storage （数据存储）as well as the bridge to a wider world. Technology has changed the emphasis of future learning. Thus, well pay more attention to the learning of kids rather than the teaching.12．According to the report in The Age, students in future schools will _______. A．have no teachers B．study at a set timeC．mainly study online D．never go to actual school13．The example of the Seashore Primary School is given to show _______. A．telephones are important in AustraliaB．how future schools will workC．every student needs a learning planD．students enjoy getting in touch with teachers14．Which of the following is the best title of the text?A．The Schools in the FutureB．Great Changes in TechnologyC．The Seashore Primary SchoolD．Actual Schools to Be Replaced二、七选五Sandstorms are among the most violent natural disasters.

If you don’t have one, wrap a piece of cloth tightly around your head to protect your nose and mouth.Look for shelter (避难所). Even a parked car will do, so long as it is off the road and not in danger of getting hit. Sand will fly around when it hits objects.17 If you cannot get to shelter, try to stay low to the ground and protect your head with your arms, a backpack or a pillow.Protect yourself from flying objects. Look for a large rock to cover as muchof your body as possible. 18 Flying sand can hurt, but a dust storm’s high winds can also carry heavier (more dangerous) objects.Wait out the storm. 19 It’s much too dangerous.

四川省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析）（满分：150分；考试时间：120分钟）学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解On a rainy afternoon, maybe one of the following books will keep you company leisurely, allowing you to spend your time alone as well as stepping into a different world.Don’t Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets,by Patricio Pron In April 1945, Italy, a writer disappeared at a conference and was found dead at another place. Thirty years later, a young man interviewed survivors from the conference, trying to uncover the truth about what happened and its consequences. This novel, by a well-known Argentine writer, explores art, crime and politics.When Breath Becomes Air, by Paul KalanithiAt thirty-six, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient. This autobiography finds hope and beauty in the face of death as Kalanithi attempts to answer the question “What makes a life worth living?”.To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper LeeSet in a small Alabama town in the 1930s, the story focuses on honest, highly respected lawyer Atticus Finch who puts his career on the line when he agrees to represent Tom Robinson, a black man accused of committing a crime.Nobody Will Tell You This But Me: A true (as told to me) story by Bess Kalb Bess Kalb saved every voicemail from her grandmother Bobby Bell who died at ninety. In this book, Bobby is speaking to Bess once more, in a voice as loving as it ever was in life and brings us several generations of brave women. They include Bobby’s mother, who traveled alone from Belarus to America to survive, and Bess’s mother, who always fought against convention.1．Which book is about the author’s own story?A．To Kill a Mockingbird.B．When Breath Becomes Air.C．Don’t Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets.D．Nobody Will Tell You This But Me: A true (as told to me) story.2．Who is the main character in the last novel?A．Bobby Bell. B．Bess Kalb. C．Bess’s mother. D．Bobby’s mother. 3．In which section of a newspaper can we read the text?A．Advertisement. B．Opinion. C．Lifestyle. D．Science.My wife and I were at a crowded grocery store not long ago. It was a weekday evening, cold and wet and tense. People were carelessly blocking aisles, complaining and cutting one another off with their carts. At one point, two women quarreled for several minutes in the freezer section.Things got worse at the checkout line. The cashier scanned a man's discount card, but he misread the savings on her screen as an additional charge. He decided she was acting on purpose and began to argue.Other customers looked away as the cashier tried to reason with him. She called a manager, who took him to customer service. Shaken, she moved to the next customer in line.We’ve all witnessed uncomfortable scenes like this in public places. My reaction when I see them is both personal and professional. I am a data analyst and sociologist who studies how and why people interact with one another--or why they choose not to. To me, the grocery scene was another example of how our trust in others has disappeared. But it was also a teachable moment on how we can rebuild our faith —starting with just one person.Therefore, my wife and I reached the disturbed cashier. I grabbed a bottle of water from a nearby cooler and handed it to her. We learned her name was Beth.“We felt bad about how that man treated you and wanted to buy this for you.”I said.Beth’s face lit up, and we talked as she scanned our items. She told us she had been working that evening through severe foot pain and would be having surgery later that week. We wished her well in her recovery, and she thanked us as we left.That is the balancing act, the moment of countering social and emotional pain with healing, that will add up to restore trust across the United States. You can start that pattern in someone else's life , even in a place as ordinary as the neighborhood grocery store.4．By describing the arguments, the author wants to show________.A．the job as a cashier is not easy. B．people in the U.S are unfriendly. C．arguments in public are very common. D．confidence in each other has worn off. 5．How did Beth probably feel when the couple gave her a bottle of water? A．Sad and regretful. B．Sorry and embarrassed.C．Cheerful and rewarded. D．Grateful and relieved.6．What's author's attitude towards Americans' regaining trust?A．Doubtful. B．Optimistic. C．Uncaring D．Cautious7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Miserable Cashier. B．A Helping Hand.C．Learning to Trust Again. D．Starting a new life.Dolphins are universally regarded as some of the cleverest creatures in the world. In captivity(圈养), they can be trained to complete complex tasks such as jumping through hoops and somersaulting through the air.But their intelligence doesn’t stop there. In a recent study of cetaceans(鲸目动物)—a group of animals that includes dolphins and whales—researchers created a list of intelligent behaviors observed in 90 different cetacean species, reported the Guardian. For example, the smartest cetaceans hunt in groups, share knowledge through mimicry(模仿) and even care for each other’s children. Some even consider their behavior to be human-like.“There is the saying that ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ seems to be true for both whales and humans,” Michael Muthukrishna of the London School of Economics, co-author of the study, told the Guardian.However, cetaceans don’t just use their brain power for survival. The study suggests that dolphins might even gossip. That’s because some species greet eachother with specific whistles, just as humans greet each other by name, the Guardian reported. Sometimes, a group of dolphins whistles the “name” of a dolphin that isn’t there. Could they be speaking about their “friend” behind its back?For the researchers, dolphin small talk is a big deal. As they found that the most social cetaceans also have the largest brains, they argue that cetacean intelligence developed to meet the demands of complex social groups.Known as the “cultural brain hypothesis(假设),” it had only been used to explain the intelligence of humans and other primates(灵长目动物). The new study aimed to find a common pathway for the evolution of intelligence among biologically different species.“It is interesting to think that whale and human brains are different in their structure but have brought us to the same patterns in behavior,” Luke Rendell, a biologist at the University of St Andrews, told the Guardian.Indeed, we still have a lot to learn about our intelligent ocean-dwelling neighbors. “We don’t have to look at other planets to look for aliens,” Muthukrishna told the Guardian, “because we know that underwater there are these amazing species with so many parallels to us in their complex behaviors.”8．The possible meaning of the underlined word “gossip” in Para. 4 is ________. A．singing B．chatting C．greeting D．arguing9．The recent study was intended to ________.A．learn more about intelligent creatures of the seaB．explain the intelligence of humans and cetaceansC．create a list of intelligent behaviors of different cetacean speciesD．see whether the intelligence of different species evolved in the same way 10．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．some cetaceans have the same intelligence as human beingsB．it is unnecessary to look for aliens and do research into themC．both dolphins and whales greet each other with specific whistlesD．both dolphins and whales have a lot in common with humans in behaviors 11．What is the best title for this passage?A．Aliens living underwaterB．A study of intelligent dolphinsC．Intelligent creatures of the seaD．Reasons for the intelligence of sea creaturesI’m rather good at using maps. But I forgot the maps and here we were, late afternoon, last day of vacation, my daughter, my cousin and I, driving along a two-lane highway in Oregon. No other car in sight, and the sun had just gone down. Where was that sweet little village?It was supposed to be right along this river. We drove on, farther into the unknown, river always at left as our guide. We kept passing farms and fields and now a few lights were coming out. In my head, I was doing a lot of self-criticisms: Why didn’t we start earlier, bring the map and on and on? My cousin and I were both impatient and stressed. My daughter, at least, was happy in the back seat, text messaging a friend. I pulled up on the shoulder of the road to think.Just then－WOW! Amazing! A new scene had appeared. Where did it come from?Right there, out of nowhere: a magical misty landscape. Fields stretched in silent purples, with rows of tall trees, darkening in the dusk (黄昏). I turned the car engine off. All was silent in the hot summer air. Beside us, a plum-colored river hardly moved between a border of trees, its dark lazy water reflecting the last light of day.How breathtaking! Where had it been? If I had seen even a bit of this beauty while driving along, I could have stopped and taken a look. I had missed it all.We miss a lot, almost everything, in fact, in our world. Our task-focused filters (过滤器) take care of that, selecting only what we need. We need to get to work. Have some lunch. We see what we need to see, often for purposes of survival. Gregory Bateson, speaking of beauty, said the judgment is selection of a fact. In our daily lives, who or what is doing the selecting? Can we make a change? Can we see further? 12．Which of the following might be the destination of the author’s driving? A．A vacation spot. B．Her own home.C．A tourist centre. D．Her cousin’s farm.13．What made the author keep blaming herself in the beginning?A．That the vacation was below her expectations.B．That she wasn’t as good at using maps as before.C．That lack of full preparations got her to lose her way.D．That her cousin and daughter couldn’t get along.14．The author felt really amazed because _________.A．she discovered a tourist spot unknown to the publicB．her carelessness brought an unexpected pleasureC．she unintentionally reached what she had planned toD．the right route (路线) to her destination came out of nowhere15．What does the story intend to tell us?A．Stay cool when you are trapped in trouble.B．Make a change for the purpose of survival.C．Be positive because there's always an alternative (choice).D．Slow down your paces to enjoy beauty in life.二、七选五Tips for Upcoming Senior TwoThe upperclassmen often describe Senior Two in No.7 High as a year with “much more homework, more frequent exams and more fierce competitions”. 16●Manage your time carefully and make the most of it.Try to study not only hard but efficiently. Make a to-do-list for your time after school. Don’t just spend quite a long time on only one subject, especially a science subject. 17 Remember to take breaks when you feel exhausted.●Treat competition in class in a right way.Competition cannot be avoided, but everyone wants to study and live in a friendly environment. Don’t treat your classmates as potential enemies. 18 By helping others solve problems, you inspire others, consolidate your own knowledge and gain lasting friendship.● 19Don’t let your former rankings limit you. What really matters is how you treat exams and rankings. Forget the class or grade rankings, but compete with yourself. In a while, you will see yourself climbing in scores and rankings.All in all, the coming new school year is sure to be full of challenges. Too much worry only adds to your difficulties in your development. 20 Wish you the best of luck in the new academic year in No.7 High!A．Treat yourself as the rival.B．Have a right attitude towards your rankings.C．However,rearrange your time table is of great importance.D．Instead,divide the hours into small periods for different subjects.E．So when they turn to you for help,just share your wisdom generously.F．If you keep my advice in mind,you will achieve a lot and lead a happy life.G．When you prepare for the upcoming challenges,some advice from me may be helpful.三、完形填空My parents operated a small restaurant in Seattle.

I have never 37 that Teddy would give her life for me without the slightest 38 . I have always 39 our relationship by saying, “We are completely bonded.” 40 I have no idea 41 true this statement was until I was diagnosed with cancer.Through the stages of my 42 from three operations, Teddy stayed near me, watching my every move. She was clearly anxious and upset when I felt 43 or distressed. I had been able to 44 many of the difficulties so far---the loss of body parts, the side 45 of medication---but the thought of losing my long hair during chemo (化疗) made me 46 . Over a three-week period, handful of hairseparated from my itchy scalp (发痒的头皮). Each 47 brought me greater distress. One evening，I sat in a rocking chair, touching my 48 hair and crying sadly. Teddy lay on the floor beside me; suddenly she began to pull at the fur（毛皮） on her tail. 49 I could stop her, she had ripped (扯) out a few clumps（团）.Teddy’s 50 stopped my tears and self-pity. The next morning, I found Teddy sleeping in a mass of long black hair, no doubt with considerable pain. Her beautiful black 51 now looked like a funny little rat’s tail.

It was 52 she was willing me to feel better.I could almost hear her saying, “If you have to lose your hair, I’m going to lose mine, too.”Teddy and I both appeared a bit 53 that summer.

However, before you are able to get your pet to a veterinarian（兽医）, knowing some basic first aid can help.Bite WoundsApproach the pet carefully to avoid getting bitten. Wear a mask for the animal and then check the wound. Clean the wound with large amounts of saline(盐水). If these are not available, then regular water may be used. Wrap large open wounds to keep them clean.BleedingApply firm, direct pressure over the bleeding area until the bleeding stops. Hold the pressure for at least 10 minutes. Avoid bandages that cut off circulation.__________Check to see if the animal is choking on a foreign object. If an animal is not breathing, place it on a firm surface with its left side up. Check for a heartbeat. If you hear a heartbeat but not breathing, close the animal’s mouth and breathe directly into its nose—not the mouth—until the chest expands. Repeat 12 to 15 times per minute.BurnsWash the burn immediately with large amounts of cool, running water. Apply an ice pack for 15—20 minutes. Do not place an ice pack directly on the skin. Wrap the pack in a light towel or other cover. If the animal has large quantities of dry chemicals on it skin, brush them off. Water may activate some dry chemicals.Fractures (骨折)Symptoms include pain, inability to use a limb (腿). Wear a mask for the pet and look for bleeding. If you can control bleeding without causing more injury, then do so. Watch for signs of shock. Don’t try to set the fractures by pulling the limb. Transport the pet to the veterinarian immediately, supporting the injured part as best as you can.56.The underlined word “substitute”in the first paragraph meanssomething_________.A.that is necessaryB.that can replace other thingsC.that is familiar with usD.that can calm people57.What’s the suitable subtitle for the blank（空白处）?A.CuttingB.Breathing StopsC.PoisoningD.Suffering Heart Problems58.If your pet is burned by chemicals, you should_________.A.wash away the chemicals with salineB.put an ice pack directly on the skinC.bind up the cut with a bandageD.get rid of them before washing59.The passage is mainly about_________.A. doing pet first aidB. treating sick petsC. dealing with an emergencyD. working as a veterinarianBI was working as an intern(实习生) at my University’s Museum of Natural history when I was an undergraduate in college. One day while working at the cash register in the gift shop, I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair.As I looked closer at this girl, I saw that she was kind of perched(位于高处) on her chair. I then realized that she had no arms or legs, just a head, neck and upper body. She was wearing a little white dress with red dots.As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register. I turned my head toward the girl and gave her a wink(眨眼), As I took the money from her grandparents, I looked back at the girl, who was giving me a nicest, largest smile I had ever seen. All of a sudden her handicap was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile just melted me and almost instantly gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about. She took me away from a poor, unhappy college student and brought me into her world; a world of smiles, love and warmth.That was 10 years ago. I’m a successful business person now and whenever I get down and think about the troubles of the world, I think about that little girl and the unforgettable lesson about life that she taught me.60.In the writer’s opinion, the little girl_________.A.had no influence on his lifeB.sponsored him to do his businessC.had a cheerful spiritD.told everyone how to live a good life61.What do we know about the writer?A.He ran a gift shop in the universityB.He looked down upon the girl because she had no arms and legsC.He just graduated from universityD.He is successful in his business62.The underlined word “handicap” in Paragraph 3 probably means_________.A.disappointmentB.appearanceC.disabilityD.impressionCOver the next 20 years, we are going to send more and better robots to Mars. Those robots will send back better pictures, maps, samples, and weather reports. There is a limit to what robots can tell us, though, so eventually we will have to send people to study the planet.Before people can visit Mars, we need to invent a spaceship that can take us there. Mars is very far away. Depending on where Mars and Earth are in their orbits around the sun, it could take between six months to a year to get there.The moon is much closer, and we were there, 25 years ago. Over the next 10 years, we are going to work on building a new spacecraft that can go to the moon. Using this craft, we will practice the skills we need to go to Mars.Once we return to the moon, we are going to build a station so that people can live and work on the moon for months at a time. This is important so that we havea place to start from when we want to visit Mars, but it is also important because it gives us practice （实际经历）with living away from Earth.By the time you are old enough to be an astronaut, we will have people spending months on the moon. By the time you are old enough to be a commander of a space mission, we will be taking trips to Mars. By the time your kids are old enough to be astronauts, we may have people living on Mars. Wouldn’t it be cool to get a postcard from someone who was building a house on Mars?
