云南省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(含有答案解析）（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 first Tomatina was thrown in the summer of 1944 or 1945 during a local religious celebration. One popular origin story of this tomato throwing festival in Spain records how a singer at the festival gave a performance terrible in quality, and the townspeople of Buñol, in disgust, grabbed produce from nearby carts, throwing it at the singer. Another account details how the townspeople expressed their dissatisfaction by rocketing tomatoes at political leaders outside of the city hall.Given the economic and political situation of Spain in the mid-1940s, both of these retellings are likely more fiction than fact. A more believable version is that a few teenagers, overexcited by the festival, either knocked over a passer-by who hatefully began throwing tomatoes or picked up tomatoes that had fallen from the bed of a passing lorry and threw them at each other jokingly, thus unknowingly creating one of Spain’s most popular yearly events.Whatever the case, it was officially banned in the 1950s. In 1957, the townspeople held a ceremonial tomato burial to express their disapproval of the ban. They put a large tomato into a coffin (棺材) and carried it through the streets of the village in a funeral procession. Local authorities then lifted the ban in 1959. Tomatina was televised for the first time in 1983, and it has seen participation numbers rise uncontrollably ever since.In 2012, Buñol began requiring payment for entrance. Buses roll into Buñol in the early hours of the final Wednesday in August, carrying tourists from all over the world. A series of lorries loaded with, as of 2021. more than 319, 000 pounds of tomatoes drives through the crowds, passing out the vegetable ammunition (弹药). Just imagine the fun of it every year! The festival has thus sparked imitation celebrations in places like Chile, Argentina and South Korea.1．What might be a scene at the first Tomatina?A．The locals blamed a dancer for performing badly.B．The folks attacked their religious leaders violently.C．Teenagers fired off tomatoes at their friends playfully.D．Teenagers started a tomato fight with walkers fiercely.2．Which year marked a turning point for Tomatina’s popularity?A．1950. B．1957. C．1959. D．1983.3．What does the underlined word "sparked” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Set off. B．Lain in. C．Thought of. D．Resulted from. 4．What is the text mainly about?A．A report on public demand for tomatoes.B．An introduction to a Spanish yearly event.C．Differences in the reactions at ceremonies.D．Disagreements over the origins of Tomatina.Robots can improve mental well-being in the workplace, but only if they look right, research suggests. A study by the University of Cambridge found that people who interacted with robots that were more toy-like, felt a greater connection compared to human-like robots.Over five weeks, 26 employees took part in the weekly robot-led well-being sessions. While the robots had identical voices, facial expressions and scripts for the sessions, their physical appearance affected how people interacted with them and how effective they thought of them to be.The first, the QT, is a childlike humanoid robot and roughly 90 centimeters tall, while the second, Misty, is a 36 centimeters tall toy-like robot. According to the researchers, toy-like robots look simpler, meaning people may have had lower expectations and ended up finding the robot easier to talk to and connect with. Those who worked with the humanoid robot found their expectations did not match reality, since the robot was not capable of behaving or interacting like an actual human.These perceptions of robots are typically guided by popular culture. Researchers added that in films, TV shows and books, robots can do anything that an individual’s imagination can think of. But when faced with a robot in the real world, peoplefind that it often does not live up to expectations.Co-author of the study, Minja Axelsson, said, “These perceptions of how robots should look or behave might be holding back the uptake of robotics in areas where they can be useful.” Professor Hatice Gunes, from Cambridge’s Department of Computer Science and Technology, said it is “incredibly difficult” to create robots that are capable of natural conversation.5．How long did the sessions last?A．For about one week. B．For over one month.C．For about 26 days. D．For over 90 days.6．What do toy-like robots mean to the employees?A．More disappointment. B．Richer imagination.C．Less communication. D．Closer relationship.7．What can we infer from Minja Axelsson’s words?A．It’s necessary to improve robots’ appearance.B．It’s difficult for robots to interact with people.C．Robots can be made to meet individual needs.D．Personal preferences may affect the use of robots.8．Which is the suitable title for the text?A．Robots’ Appearance May Improve Mental Well-beingB．Popular Culture Decides Human’s Demand for RobotsC．Attitudes towards Robots Vary from Person to PersonD．Human-like Robots Improve Efficiency in WorkplacesIn the 2010s, 34-year old Brianne Miller travelled around the world as a marine (海洋的) biologist. No matter how remote the location, she made the same alarming discovery: large amounts of plastic polluting the water and threatening marine life. Miller knew she needed to do something.Canadians throw out three million tons of plastic waste each year, 33 per cent of which comes from food packaging. Miller, determined to solve the problem at the source, envisioned a shop that not just banned the use of plastic bags—a place thatavoided both wasteful packaging and the bad habit of wasting food itself.To put her thought into practice, in June 2018, Miller opened one of the first zero-waste grocery stores in Canada. She named it Nada. You can bring your own containers (容器), though it’s not necessary: right by the front door are recycled glass or plastic containers, free for the taking.The early days of the pandemic (疫情) were hard on the business. Because food sales were restricted (限制), Nada closed its doors to the public for 18 months. But then Miller turned to online ordering and delivery. The zero-waste deliveries are made by e-bike and electric vehicles. Everything from olive oil to fresh eggs comes delivered in recycled containers, which are collected and reused for the next round of deliveries.Those containers do so much more than just reduce waste. They get people thinking big, just as Miller had hoped they would. “You can see how many times the container has been used,” she says.9．What made Miller take action to deal with plastic waste?A．The terrible situation of the ocean life.B．The strong desire to travel all over the world.C．The great responsibility of researching plastic.D．The respect and admiration from other biologists.10．What does the underlined word “envisioned” in paragraph 2 refer to? A．Doubt. B．Demand. C．Advise. D．Imagine. 11．What can we know about Miller’s zero-waste grocery store?A．It asked consumers to pay for plastic containers.B．It went out of business because of the pandemic.C．It provided environmental friendly delivery service.D．It suggested people to buy less food to reduce waste.12．Which of the following words can best describe Miller?A．Kind and ambitious. B．Creative and determined.C．Brave and humorous D．Optimistic and confident.Take a look at your fingers. Would you believe me if I told you that the length of your fingers in relation to one another can predict your personality? I know that it sounds like one of those silly tests you see on Facebook, but I have to admit that it was spot-on for me.Look at your three middle fingers of your left hand. Is your index finger(食指)longer than your ring finger? Is your ring finger longer than your index finger? Or are the two the same length?Category 1: A longer ring finger. If your ring finger is longer than your index finger, research shows that you’re likely a charming type, and you can probably talk yourself out of any situation. Others often find this personality type irresistible(无法抵制的)and will go to great lengths to help you. You’re more likely to take risks, and you’re good at problem-solving. People in this category make great engineers, soldiers and crossword-puzzle solvers.Category 2: A longer index finger. If your index finger is longer than your ring finger, chances are that you are full of confidence — possibly even to the point of being over-confident and too proud. You are not necessarily shy, but you do enjoy time to yourself especially when you’re trying to complete a project. You are a determined go-getter who can make things happen, but you may be shy when it comes to taking the first step in building up a friendship. You are also probably happy with what you have, but you’re always wishing for more.Category 3: The two are the same length. If your index finger and ring finger are roughly the same length, you are likely to avoid conflict at all costs and seek to keep the peace in your relationships. You are well-organized, faithful and sympathetic. But deep down under all of that caring and peace-loving, you also can go mad unexpectedly when you’re pushed too far.How well did these descriptions match your personality? I was surprised at the accuracy in my case.13．What might people with a long ring finger tend to be like?A．Creative. B．Attractive. C．Hard-working. D．Harm-hearted. 14．Which is the case with people having a longer index finger?A．They are not welcome most of the time.B．They always feel confident and never feel shy.C．They are always satisfied with what they have.D．They prefer to be left alone when working on a project.15．Which is a suitable match for “Category 3” people?A．The crossword-puzzle solver. B．The adventurer.C．The peacemaker. D．The sweet talker.16．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．Never believe the silly tests on Facebook.B．The length of fingers can show personality.C．Why your fingers are not of the same length.D．How to find out about one’s personality exactly.二、七选五How to learn new thingsIs it ever too late to learn a new skill? The answer is: absolutely not! Learning new things is beneficial at any age. It can change your life in many ways — from giving you a career promotion to helping you discover a new passion. All you needis enthusiasm, focus, and some helpful learning strategies. 17●Take a class or online course.Classes offer informative, guided instruction on your chosen discipline. Checkout the course listings at your local community college or look for class offeringsat local churches, free schools, community recreation centers, and cultural centers.18●Learn through practical experience.The most effective way to learn something is just to do it! 19 For example, you want to learn a programming language. Try it out rather than spendingall your time in a textbook! Learn by coding a small program and working out the bugs yourself.● 20Teaching a skill enables you to understand it better. Why? Because by teachingsomeone else, you first have to think critically about the skill or subject and breakit down into easily explainable pieces. Ask a friend or coworker if you can discuss what you’ve been learning with them. Make an informative presentation about the subject or start a blog about your learning process.●Test yourself.A test will show you how much of the material you remember. Quizzes aren’t the most fun part of learning, but sometimes they’re exactly what you need. 21 Find a practice exam online or draw up your own test that you can use to grade yourself. Testing shows you how well you’ve mastered the material so far and what you mightstill need to work on.A．Teach someone else.B．Make a practice schedule.C．Set up a test for yourself when you learn a new skill or concept.D．Use lots of different learning materials from books to online videos.E．Here’s a list of tips that will help you learn any new skill you desire.F．Check local magazines and online listings for independent teachers and tutors, too.G．Apply the ideas you learned from lessons and find out what works best foryou in practice.三、完形填空Eleven-year-old Angela was stricken with a disease involving her nervous system.was brave.

Earlier today, I was so lucky to be nearby when she was partnering with a boy who was reading a mystery of Magic Tree House. Every time Sweetie listened to the boy reading the most challenging words, she would softly lick（舔）his hand which was holding the book. With his mom in the background, Sweetie and the young boy shared a l0-minute happy partnership, and he was rewarded by Sweetie’s great attention to his every word.Next Sweetie had an appointment with the twins who took turns reading poetry. With each girl giggling over the funny words, Sweetie was also smiling with her tongue dropping a bit as they each read. After the 10-minute interaction was done, each girl gave Sweetie a gentle hug and were rewarded by Sweetie’s foreleg bow.In speaking with Sweetie’s owner and transportation “captain”, I learned that Sweetie had been specially trained to work as a service dog. She has retired（退休）after a career of wonderful service, and now she is “in her sunset years” in her service at the library.Sweetie has a special resting carpet behind the scenes in the Children’s Area, so that she can refresh herself with fresh water and some food when she is tired and hungry. This is Sweetie’s third summer that she has been the “regular” partner. Oh Fridays from 2 pm~4 pm, Sweetie is ready to listen and act as a devoted partner.4. What do we know about Sweetie?A. She is a good listener.B. She likes playing tricks on people.C. She dislikes children.D. She is stupid.5. How did the boy feel when Sweetie listened to him reading?A. Frightened.B. Happy.C.

Which of the following can best describe Sweetie?A. Violent.B. Lazy.C. Mysterious.D. Friendly.CMany students are involved in social practice besides study. On Monday, April 17, 2017, a unique partnership between Saint Agatha and Phalanx Family Services began. Saint Agatha is a primary school and day care program. Phalanx Family Services is a full-service, nonprofit （非盈利的）organization offering various programming for in-need families living in Chicago.Thirteen in-school youths, between the ages of 16~18, started training as young reporters in an eight-week camp organized by the two organizations. The program is designed to teach them how to become city reporters. After completing the program successfully, they will receive a job reporting for one of nine online news about the project.The very thought of 13 youths’ improving r eading and writing levels and hunting for career opportunities in journalism（新闻业）is exciting! Imagine, Chicago youths report positive and inspiring stories about the happenings around Chicago’s blackand brown communities, which are much better than frightening stories coming from local and national medium.I admire Saint Agatha and Phalanx Family Services for training youths in a needed skill set. As I see it, technology has harmed youths’ reading and writing abilities. My father often says, “Youth is wasted on the young.” It sounds like the wisdom of the old. But Saint Agatha offers training and the opportunity for youths to take an active part in reporting the happenings and events they experience day to day in order to prove students don’t waste youth.8. What is the main purpose of the eight-week camp?A. To improve students’ interest in study.B. To help students become more independent.C. To teach youths how to become city reporters.D. To let youths know about their local culture and customs.9. What does Saint Agatha mainly show to us?A. What our father said is right.B. Youth is not wasted by students.C. Technology harms youths’ reading and writing abilities.D. Technology provides the youth with more opportunities.10. The underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refers to “________”.A. Youth is wasted on the youngB. Reporting the happenings and eventsC. YouthD. Technology11. What can be inferred from the text?A. The history of the city is mainly recorded by youths.B. Phalanx Family Services is aiming to make money.C. The author is in favor of the eight-week camp.D. The thirteen in-school youths refused the program.DIt is generally believed that humans can’t live without sleep. As any person suffering from lack of sleep knows, dark circles under the eyes usually stand out after a bad night’s sleep.But why do people get these dark eye bags? The answer is both genetic (that is, relating to your DNA) and environmental (a result of your everyday living, such as rubbing your eyes or getting too little sleep), said Dr. Carol Clinton, a skin-care researcher in Dublin, Ohio.But “the biggest reason is genes,” Clinton told Live Science. Eye bags are generally more noticeable in people who, because of genes, have thin or pale skin. When people are tired or very nervous, blood circulation in the eye area becomes slow, allowing blood to pool there, Clinton said. Capillaries（毛细血管）stand out, leading to dark eye circles, she said.Besides, eye bags result from eyes’ fat moving forward. An age-connected increase in fat beneath the eyeballs leads to eye bags. “Anyway, when your eyes’ fat is moving forward, you may think about having an operation in that area,” Clinton said, “A person can get 9 hours of sleep a night, but still have eye bags because of a genetic development.”In other cases, environmental problems cause eye bags. For example, allergies （过敏）—especially seasonal allergies—can cause capillaries to stand out. Getting too much sun can also damage and thin the skin, making dark circles under the eyes easy to see. Besides, eating salty foods can cause the body to hold more water, which makes eye bags worse, according to the Mayo Clinic.12. In Clinton’s opinion, what is the main cause of the formation of dark eye bags?A. Genes.B. Habits.C. Age.D. The environment.13. What can remove your eye bags according to the text?A. Getting much sun.B. Drinking plenty of water.C. Having an operation on the fat in the eye area.D. Slowing your blood circulation in the eye area.14. What can we learn from the text?A. It’s possible to change genes.B. Rubbing your eyes might cause dark eye bags.C. People with thick skin don’t get dark eye bags.D. You can’t get dark eye bags if you get enough sleep.15. What’s the best title for the text?A. What Can You Do to Protect Your Eyes?B. The Importance of Sleep to People’s HealthC. Several Measures to Remove Your Eye BagsD. Why Do People Get “Bags” Under Their Eyes?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

云南省高一下学期期末英语试卷(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From the cold Arctic to the African plains, every society seems to have some form of music as part of their culture. Music is so common and widespread that mostwho doubted it: How could we know that music was really a part of all known societies?Now, Harvard researchers, Samuer Mehr and Manvir Singh, have found further evidence to support the argument. They gathered music from different countries, media and time periods, and collected descriptions of many different pieces of music. Rather than focusing on music first and then looking at where it could be found, they started by studying a record of detailed descriptions of more than three hundred known global societies, and found that all of them have music as part of their culture.To see if people could recognize the functions of songs from around the world, the researchers also created a listening experiment in which people tried to guess the behavioral context of a song. This went surprisingly well. Particularly music that was intended for dancing or to calm a baby were easy to recognize as either dance music or lullabies. Love songs were a bit more difficult to qualify, because they tend to be very diverse even within cultures.This systematic study of connections sounds like the way that researchers in other fields would study biological patterns. “There’s a field known as cultural phylogenetics,” says Singh. Whereas biological characteristics are only received from parent to child, cultural characteristics (like music) are also shared between people of the same generation. That makes it much more difficult to figure out where the characteristic has come from.“Finally,” Singh says, “We still don’t know why music developed gradually. Our study shows that humans everywhere share cognitive mechanisms (认知机制) that make certain sounds seem appropriate in particular contexts.”1．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 1 refer to?A．The fact that music is part of every culture.B．The question whether music is widely spread.C．The doubt whether further research has been done.D．The idea that Africa and the Arctic have cool music.2．What did Mehr and Singh do first?A．They found out further evidence. B．They studied various societies. C．They sought the origins of music. D．They focused mainly on music. 3．What’s the purpose of the listening experiment?A．To comfort a baby. B．To pick out love songs.C．To create a context. D．To tell functions of songs.4．What is the main idea of the text?A．Music shapes societies in different cultures.B．Global music shares common characteristics.C．Musical systems display cultural differences.D．Multi-culture is based on biological patterns.A woman who lost one leg to cancer is seeking to break a world record by completing 102 marathon-length runs in 102 days.Jacky Hunt Broersma, who lost the bottom half of her left leg to a rare form of cancer in 2001, set her goal in mid-January. And every day since then, she has been running the distance of a marathon. “Part of my body was gone. For me the most difficult problem was accepting my disability, ”she told the reporter.Until five years ago, she was not very active. But then she looked into running and decided to give it a try. The sport ended up being quite costly. Currently, the carbon fiber blade she uses, which is designed specifically for running, costs about $10,000. “Running really changed my life, ”she said. “It helped me accept myself as a person with disability. It gave me a sense of freedom. I fell in love with the process of pushing my body further just to see what I could do.”However, she has faced both physical and mental difficulties during herrecord-breaking attempt. On one recent day, Hunt Broersma felt breakdown at 24 kilometers and began to cry. In that moment, she felt like her planned goal might not happen at all.

The government announced it would start using Spot, Boston Dynamics’ famous yellow and black robot dog in a local park.Authorities said the four-legged robot “dog” will patrol the area and broadcast a prerecorded message to visitors to remind them of the importance of social distancing. The device will also be equipped with cameras that will look at thesurroundings carefully and help officials calculate the number of people gathering in parks.“These cameras will not be able to track or recognize specific individuals, and no personal data will be collected,” the government said. The new measure is an experiment to improve enforcement of social distancing throughout Singapore. The pilot project is put into trial use for two weeks at one park during off-peak hours. But if all goes well, authorities will consider expanding the program. The government says it’s also using Spot in another capacity-at a local isolation facility where the robot helps patients carry medicine.Spot went viral almost overnight in a series of online videos several years ago, showing that it could run uphill, climb stairs or even get you a drink. It is generally used for inspections on construction sites or similar situations, according to Boston Dynamics. It also has been used for public safety reasons, such as helping “inspect dangerous packages from long-distance,”the company states on its website.Singapore’s government said that it had picked the model for its flexibility. “Unlike wheeled robots, Spot works well across different terrains and can navigate and avoid obstacles effectively, making it ideal for operation in public parks and gardens,” it noted. For now, at least one park ranger will be patrolling the area along with the robot, according to authorities.9．What is Spot employed for in a park in Singapore?A．Isolating patients.B．Inspecting dangerous packages.C．Helping enforce social distancing.D．Tracking and recognizing specific individuals.10．What can we know from Paragraph 3?A．A pilot will operate the robot dog.B．The government is expanding the project.C．Spot is being used in hospitals to help patients.D．Spot doesn’t patrol the park during rush hours.11．What does the underlined phrase probably mean in Paragraph 4?A．Was created. B．Became a hit. C．Went public. D．Sold out. 12．Why has Singapore’s government chosen Spot?A．It has great adaptability.B．It is equipped with cameras.C．It is not like a wheeled robot.D．It works well from long-distance.One of the biggest problems when we are talking is the awkward silence. Encountering this situation is so uncomfortable that you would avoid meeting new people in the first place. In the past, I struggled with this and I even thought it had to do with my DNA or something… But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on.After studying this in depth, I had different opinions and found that one of these common behaviors is the habit of filtering (过滤)—holding back from saying something until you've "checked" to make sure that what you're about to say is cool, impressive and interesting. Another problem is not learning to get in the mood for conversation. If you don't know how to change from subjects, then it can take a lot of time to warm up.It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. It's fun to realize that you're allowed to say whatever is on your mind. As long as you don't say anything that could land you in jail (监狱).All of the "Oh! That's interesting…" "Hmm, I've never heard of that" "Hmm, cool!" expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you're really listening. This works 99% of the time. So, if you show some interest, they'll hang around and want to talk to you even more.Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations, but most people only talk about stories of their own lives. When someone mentions something related to anyof them, just tell the story, even if it's not from your life. The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.13．If people can deal with the awkward silence, they can _____.A．train their working skillB．improve their life qualityC．enrich their social lifeD．establish their working relationship14．When talking with others, we should _____.A．to coolB．think twiceC．be free to expressD．avoid breaking in15．According to the passage, what do the speakers care much about?A．The attractive topics of conversation.B．The atmosphere of the conversation.C．The listener's experiences and tastes.D．The listener's curiosity and concern.16．What does the underlined part "juice-up conversations" mean?A．making conversations more difficultB．making conversations livelierC．making conversations smootherD．making conversations more relaxing二、七选五How to Get Others to Help You at WorkUnavoidably, at work you will need the help of others. Getting this help may have less to do with your formal position and authority and more to do with your strategy and approach. 17 .Define what needs to be done. 18 . By defining all the tasks required, you increase the chance of success. Be sure to include introductions and deadlines as you define specific action items that are needed.Ask an individual for help.When you make a general request for volunteers during a meeting, colleagues often understand it as “whoever doesn’t have much of anything to do can work on this.” 19 . However, if you think about who might best be able to help with a task and then specifically ask that person for help, your chances of getting him or her to accept the task increase greatly.Thank others for their assistance.Always thank and acknowledge others for their help. 20 . In addition, you will likely be able to call on the person again in the future for assistance. But remember that return the favor when he or she needs your help. Such reciprocal (相互的) behavior could lead to valuable alliance.21 . If you’re congratulated for a job well done, let your bosses know who helped you do it. Giving praise to those deserving it will not only please them, but will impress the bosses into considering you for future promotion. After all, the best managers remain those who are best at getting others to help them complete their work for the common good.A．Share the honorB．Unclear goals lead to unclear resultsC．Leave a good impression on your bossesD．So you should take trouble to ask who are freeE．The person will feel that his or her time and energy were worthwhileF．Your opportunities of getting someone to volunteer thus tend to be slim G．They can range from a simple favor to convincing others to accept yours as their own三、完形填空Dr. Smith of New York works at a center for children who can’t learn well.
