四川省成都市第七中学2022-2023学年高一上学期第一次月考模拟测试卷2英语试题
2022新教材-外研版-必修一-成都七中-第一次月考（模拟测试卷）2第一部分阅读［共两节，满分50分］第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A篇Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is why some friendships don't last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules：be honest；be generous（宽宏大量的）；be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven't been honest, you may lose your friend's trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend's place so that you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are exactly alike（相像）.But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.1. Some friendships don't last long because______________.A. there are too many people who want to make friendsB. those who give others friendship receive friendship from othersC. some people receive friendship but don't give friendship backD. they don't know friendship is something serious2. According to the passage, honesty is__________.A. something countableB. the base of friendshipC. as important as moneyD. more important than anything else3. The best title of this passage isA. How to Be a FriendB. Honesty Is the Best PolicyC. A Friend in Need Is a Friend IndeedD. Three Important Points in LifeB篇Every year, hundreds of hopeful students arrive in Washington, D. C. , in order to compete in the National Spelling Bee, which has been held every year since 1925.In the competition, students under 16 take turns trying to properly spell words. The championis the only remaining student who does not make a mistake. American students are familiar with the competition because it is practiced in many schools throughout the country. The National Spelling Bee, however, is a much bigger setting and showcases only the best spellers from all parts of the nation. Winning the competition nowadays requires the ability to perform under much pressure against so many talented students in front of a large audience. A student who wins the event in the twenty-first century will experience a much different challenge than the first winner, Frank Neuhauser，did in 1925 when he defeated（打败）only nine other competitors.Clearly, the 90 years of the National Spelling Bee's existence proves the importance of spelling in the English language. However, struggles with spelling English words go back much more than 90 years. The charming thing about spelling correctly in English is that it is in many ways without rules. English language can absorb new words from other languages and in doing so make them “English” words. Because of this, the number of words in English is much higher than any other languages. Thus, spelling in many other languages has fewer words and fewer strange exceptions to rules. It turns out that a spelling bee in most other languages would be a waste of time. Why is that? Well, without so many exceptions（例外）to common vocabulary, there would be very few words that everyone didn't already know.()4. How is today's competition different from the first National Spelling Bee?A. It produces more winners.B. It draws more talented audience.C. It attracts more competitors.D. It tests more strange words.()5. Why does the author mention “other languages” in Paragraph 3?A. To introduce the new rules of the competition.B.To gather students from other countries.C. To explain the difficulty in English spelling.D. To show the strict rules of written English.()6.What's the author's attitude toward holding spelling competitions in most other languages?A.Uncaring.B. B.Supportive.C.Responsible.D.Doubtful.()7. What does the text mainly talk about?A. Ways to win a Spelling Bee.B.The most difficult language.C. The best spellers.D. A competition about spelling.C篇When I met and married a Japanese man in New York, I thought he would learn a bit more English and we would continue to live our lives there. But in life's twists and turns, we ended up living in Tokyo! I was the one who needed to learn Japanese and fast! There is no experience quite as lonely as living in a foreign country without a grasp of the language. Especially to make friends and to break that loneliness, it is the first and foremost goal to attain...always an uphill climb, while totally awkward!I was a trained English Language teacher, and while I lived abroad I did that work, and whenwe moved back to America I planned to continue it. The country's financial difficulties at the time, however, saw deep cuts to the English as a second language in schools and to refugee language programs. So I simply took a job in a department store, at its Child Playroom.But this store was located near a major company that hired some of its workforce from many other countries. Often a preschooler in my playroom could not speak a word of English, and would look so lost and lonely! My heart flew to them! We interacted with each other a lot. We would play English language games and they would teach their language to me.Years later, when a small girl who had come from South America could speak good English, she said to me, “Teacher, remember when I called you Maestra?”Another child whose language was only Russian originally-we built a robot from blocks and fed it block food and learned English words that way-would come years afterwards and continue to play that same game! These moments became my life compass-due north is that place where when persons are different, Love Matters!8. What was the author's challenge after marriage?A. She had to give up her job.B. She lost all her best friends.C. She needed to learn a new language.D. She was forced to live overseas.9. Why did the author change her job after she returned home?A. She set up her own company.B. She lost interest in teaching.C. Better teachers were needed.D. Teaching jobs were greatly reduced.10. What would the author and the young children do in the playroom?A. They learned each other's languages.B. They took language tests.C. They cared for each other.D. They encouraged each other in learning.11. Which word can best describe the author's interactions with children?A. Tiring.B. Helpful.C. Simple.D. Humorous.D篇Local bamboo plantations in Europe have ensured that giant pandas in Belgium and the United Kingdom have been fed with enough fresh bamboo during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to zookeepers.Every week, there are about 1,000 kilograms of fresh bamboo delivered from a French bamboo plantation called La Bambouseraie to the Belgian zoo of Pairi Daiza where two giant pandas plus their three babies live.Mathieu Goedefroy,spokesman of the zoo, said “It is very important for us to be assured that we always and at every time are able to provide fresh bamboo of the highest quality for our dear pandas. That's why we decide to buy this growing house.”Since 1856, when a botanist Eugene Mazel began his first plantings by making species from all the world used to the plantation, La Bamhouseraie has developed into a park growing more than 240 varieties of bamboo now.Of the 1,000 kilograms of bamboo delivered to the zoo each week, only a small part is eatenby the pandas. The other animals can consume the rest of it so that none is wasted.The story is similar in the U.K.‘s Edinburgh Zoo, where the fresh bamboo has been shipped from the Netherlands. Jo Elliot, the animal collection manager at the zoo, said, “We have made sure that our stores have enough supplies. The pandas need their bamboo. Most of it gets shipped in from the Netherlands, and at the moment that is fine. We are still getting deliveries.”In early May, Canada's Calgary Zoo said it would have to send back two giant pandas to China, since fewer flights, as a result of COVID-19, were causing a lack of bamboo for the pandas. An adult giant panda eats about 35 kilograms of bamboo shoots, or kilograms of fresh bamboo and bamboo leaves daily. There was no locally grown bamboo in Calgary, so supplies of bamboo had relied on the shipments from China.“We have also contacted our workmates from Calgary, Canada,” Goedefroy said. “We'll see if we could be of any help for them with our bamboo supplies.”12. Where does Pairi Daiza get bamboo for their pandas?A. From a zoo in China.B. From a French plantation.C. From a zoo in Belgium.D. From a plantation in the Netherlands.13. What is the similarity between the Edinburgh Zoo and Pairi Daiza?A. They make full use of the bamboo.B. They have to return pandas to China.C. They have enough bamboo supplies.D. They got bamboo from the same place.14. What can be inferred about Calgary Zoo from the last two paragraphs?A. It could grow some bamboo soon.B. Pairi Daiza may send bamboo to it.C. It will give less bamboo to pandas.D. There will be no more pandas living in it.15. What is the best title for the text?A.COVID-19 Harmed Pandas' HealthB.COVID-19 Brought Chances to ZoosC. European Plantations Grew Bamboo WellD. European Zoos Kept Enough Supply of Bamboo第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Let’s get started by checking out Student Guide for your academic journey!Signing up for ESL (English as a Second Language)ESL courses are designed to help international students improve academic English language skills. Enrollment (课程注册) priority is given to degree students. If space is available, you may enroll. You will then be asked to take an ESL Placement Test. The test results will help you choose the class that is appropriate for vou.Changing Your Course Enrollment ListYou may change your class schedule during the first two weeks of the term by adding or dropping courses from your enrollment list. After the second week of classes, there will be a charge for each schedule change. Students often attend classes in which they are not enrolled on the first day of instruction to try adding this new course to the list, as other students may have dropped it.Withdrawing from CoursesIf you choose to drop a course, you must follow the UCLA procedures for removing it from your schedule. If you forget to officially drop that course, a “F” (Fail) grade will be registered on your record at the end of the term. If, at a later date, you wish to apply for a job or graduate school where an official copy of your UCLA record is required, it will be to your advantage to provide an impressive academic record.Taking ExamsSome instructors choose to put previous test papers on library reserve, making themavailable to all students. These exams, which students commonly use for practice, can give you an idea of how instructors ask questions and what they regard as relevant material. You can also access the exams online.16．An ESL Placement Test is aimed to ________.A．improve the students’ language skillsB．encourage the students to answer questionsC．put the students in a class that fits themD．help the students apply for a degree17．What is the deadline for a free enrollment list change?A．The day when the class is full.B．The first day of instruction.C．The first week of the class.D．The end of the second week.18．What should exchange students do if they choose to stop taking a course?A．Seek assistance from UCLA officials.B．Go through the procedures to drop it.C．Present past academic records to UCLA．D．Make a request to the Registration Office.19．Working on previous tests helps students ________.A．imitate the way that their instructors write test questionsB．learn how questions are asked and what they are based onC．come up with new ideas about how testing relates to teaching X.D．narrow down to what has not yet been covered in online testsMy grandma passed away last week. My mum began the painful yet necessary task of sorting through her belongings.“Is there anything you want from grandma’s flat?” Mum texted me.“Her aloe (芦荟), please.” I required zero thinking time.Sometime around 1975, Grandma, always believing good things would happen in the future, received this plant as a gift, which she appreciated and placed in her doorway. It came from thelocal butcher. Five years later, my mum married the butcher’s son and had me. Grandma revealed to me this particular plant was a living relationship between the two families. And so was I.Recently, whenever we visited Grandma’s flat, I attempted to fix this concept in my children’s minds. “That was a gift your great-grandma bought your other great-grandma! It’s older than me!” Then my kids would nod and ask Grandma for a sweet.Numerous times, Grandma gave me cuttings or clippings of the plant, hoping I might raise my own and continue the legend. Yet, every time, my new branch died with my awful gardening skills. But that didn’t used to matter, because I could turn to Grandma, who would wait and accept my disturbance without becoming upset. Then I got another clipping and tried again. But now I can’t. So, I decided that the plant will go and live with Ann, my mother-in-law, who is a genius with a greenhouse.The plan is for Ann to keep hold of the original plant. In time, she can teach me how to deal with its cuttings properly, and then maybe one day I can settle the plant in my place.In the meantime, Ann will allocate (分配) clippings among my relatives, as Grandma used to do. My wife’s two sisters, for example, are both better at tending plants than I am, so it is quite imaginable that they, too, will offer cuttings of the plant to their partners, spreading this loving plant across my entire extended family.20．Why did the author want his grandma’s aloe?A．He wanted to pass it down to others.B．He showed a preference for gardening.C．He had a pleasant memory of the plant.D．He received it as a gift from his grandma. 21．Which of the following best describes the author’s grandma?A．Optimistic and patient.B．Generous and helpful.C．Honest and fashionable.D．Humorous and skillful.22．The author took the aloe to his mother-in-law toA．display his skills in gardening B．have the plant better cared forC．announce his grandma’s death D．protect the plant from dying out23．What may be the best title for the text?A．Aloe: my family bond B．Aloe: a mysterious plantC．Grandma: my life coach D．Grandma: a lovely gardenerLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6，000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150). Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival. 24．What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A．They developed very fast.B．They were large in number.C．They had similar patters.D．They were closely connected25．Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？A．Complex.B．Advanced.C．Powerful.D．Modern.26．How many languages are spoken by less than 6, 000 people at present?A．About 6,800 .B．About 3,400C．About 2,400D．About 1,200.27．What is the main idea of the text?A．New languages will be created.B．Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.C．Human development results in fewer languages.D．Geography determines language evolution.The kids are hanging out. I pass small bands of students, on my way to work these mornings. They have become a familiar part of the summer landscape.These kids are not old enough for jobs. Nor are they rich enough for camp. They are school children without school. The calendar called the school year ran out on them a few weeks ago. Once monitored by teachers and principals, they now appear to be “self care”.Passing them is like passing through a time zone. For much of our history, after all, Americans arranged the school year around the needs of work and family. In 19th-century cities, schools were open seven or eight hours a day, 11 months a year. In rural America, the year was arranged around the growing season. Now, only 3 percent of families follow the agricultural model, but nearly all schools are scheduled as if our children went home early to milk the cows and took months off to work the crops. Now, three-quarters of the mothers of school-age children work, but the calendar is written as if they were home waiting for the school bus.The six-hour day, the 180-day school year is regarded as something holy. But when parents work an eight-bour day and a 240-day year, it means something different. It means that many kids go home to empty houses. It means that, in the summer, they hang out.“We have a huge mismatch between the school calendar and realities of family life,” says Dr. Ernest Boyer, head of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.Dr. Boyer is one of many who believe that a radical revision of the school calendar is inevitable. “School, whether we like it or not, is educational. It always has been.”His is not a popular idea. Schools are routinely burdened with the job of solving all our social problems. Can they be asked to meet the needs of our work and family lives?It may be easier to promote a longer school year on its educational merits and, indeed, the educational case is convincing. Despite the complaints and studies about our kids lack of learning,the United State still has a shorter school year than any industrial nation. In most of Europe, the school year is 220 days. in Japan, it is 240 days long. While classroom time alone doesn’t produce a well-educated child, learning takes time and more learning takes more time. The long summers of forgetting take a toll.The opposition to a longer school year comes from families that want to and can provide other experiences for their children. It comes from teachers. It comes from tradition. And surely from kids. But the most important part of the conflict has been over the money.28．The current American school calendar was developed in the 19th century according to ______.A．the growing season on nation’s farmB．the labor demands of the industrial ageC．teachers’ demands for more vacation timeD．parents’ demands for other experiences for their kids29．Why is Dr. Boyer’s idea unpopular?A．He thinks that school year and family life should be considered separatelyB．He argues for the role of school in solving social problems.C．He strongly believes in the educational role of school.D．He supports the current school calendar.30．“The long summers of forgetting take a toll” in the last paragraph but one means that ______.A．long summer vacation changes the way of learningB．long summer vacation has been abandoned in EuropeC．long summers result in less learning timeD．long summers are a result of tradition31．The author thinks that the current school calendar ______.A．is still appropriate B．is out of dateC．is inevitable D．cannot be revised三、单词拼写32．At first I disagreed, but on (反思),I realized she was right.(根据汉语提示单词拼写) 33．Children have a natural c (好奇心) about the world around them. . （根据首字母和汉语提示写出单词）34．His best movie, which won several a (奖), was about the life of Gandhi.

四川省成都市第七中学（高新校区）2023-2024学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解If you’re interested in pushing yourself academically while experiencing college life, our Summer Programs for Pre-College Students (SPP) can be ideal for you. In the programs, you will be able to make friends with fellow students, engage in social activities around the city and on campus, and experience pre-college summer study at one of the world’s top teaching and research universities.Our long-running summer term pre-college offerings include a choice of one-, two-, three-, and six-week programs that prepare you for success in college. With five exciting and challenging pre-college summer programs to choose from, you can earn college credit, discover a new subject area, perform cutting-edge research in university labs, or immerse yourself in hands-on learning.Academic lifeSPP invites you to join other highly motivated teens from 87 countries in our summer programs for high school students — and take the leap into college life and academics, which enables you to take on new academic challenges, explore a variety of interests and consider possible majors. You can take college courses alongside undergraduates either on campus or online. And you can also earn up to eight college credits by conducting in-depth STEM research with individual instructors or as part of a group project. Or, you can immerse yourself in a variety of stimulating noncredit seminars that blend lectures with experiential learning, discussions, and projects.Campus/Residence lifeEmbracing college life is an exciting experience. Whether you live on campus or commute, you’ll get to know the ins and outs of college and city life. If you live on campus, you will stay in the residence hall, sharing a room and participating in dorm activities. There are typically two students per room and safety is our highest priority: residence halls have live-in university staff and 24-hour security. Resident program assistants provide guidance, coordinate and lead social activities, ranging from group activities that include comedy shows to field trips.Your hard work will be combined with social events and fun activities — and you’ll still have time for your own adventures on campus! Email the SPP office at ******************. 1．What does SPP aim to do?A．To help college students to achieve academic success.B．To provide admission guidelines for pre-college students.C．To get high school students well-prepared for college life.D．To encourage students to participate in hands-on learning.2．What are students supposed to do to earn the required credits?A．Carry out STEM research.B．Attend various seminars.C．Finish the courses online.D．Join in experiential learning.3．What can we know about students living on campus?A．They can organize social activities.B．They will have access to a single room.C．They are provided with good security.D．They are advised to direct comedyshows.“I can’t connect with your characters.”I kept hearing the same feedback and was unable to understand why and not sure what to do. I was a character-driven writer. How could I mess up the one thing I was supposed to be good at? I was determined to convince my agent that these characters were real. After all, I knew they were real. My main character Lotus had lived inside me for years. I just needed to clarify her on the page.I wrote and edited for a year, trying to respond to this agent’s feedback. But Lotus’ personality began to disappear. I tried to have her make “better” decisions, wear smarter fashion, and have more friends, as my agent said she acted “immature” and was “isolated”. And when this agent ultimately parted ways with me, I felt like I had failed. Now with time and distance, I realize I tried to fit Lotus into a neurotypical style to please my agent. And as a result, Lotus lost her Lotus-ness.When that agent discouraged me from writing Lotus as autistic(自闭的), he said that would make Lotus seem more “vulnerable(脆弱的)” or an “obvious victim”. I didn’t want Lotus to seem vulnerable. Lotus’ autism is what makes her powerful, I tried to explain. But from a neurotypical perspective, Lotus’ autism could only be seen as a weakness.Unsure of how to convince my agent of the strength and power autistic women hold, Ibegan to write Lotus as “neurotypical”. And I failed miserably. After all, what do I know about being neurotypical? My whole life, autism was my default. Not being diagnosed until 2020, I assumed the way I saw the world was “normal”.My current agent encourages me to write from my neurodivergent(神经多样性的) experience. With this invitation, I revisited Lotus and saw her the way I first wrote her. And when I did, the characters and the entire narrative began to make more sense.Identifying my characters as neurodivergent not only gives me joy as a writer, but it has produced my strongest writing. For so long, I’ve combatted the advice to “write what I know”, in part because I didn’t know what I actually knew. I didn’t know I was neurodivergent. But as I mine the specificity of my lived experience, my writing is stronger. There is a power to our lived experience. It’s not a limitation on our craft, but a swinging open of the gates. 4．How did the author feel when receiving the repeated response from the first agent?A．Confused.B．Convinced.C．Determined.D．Disappointed. 5．Lotus’ personality got lost because ______A．Lotus no longer lived inside the author B．the author attempted to please the agent C．the agent failed to sympathize with Lotus D．Lotus was considered childish and lonely 6．What do we know about the author?A．She regretted parting with the agent.B．She owed her success in life to autism.C．She was aware of her autism in the early years.D．She was empowered by her autistic experience.7．What has the author learned from her own experience?A．Stick to your dream despite discouragement.B．Be true to yourself and write from your heart.C．Giving in to authority is the barrier to success.D．Everyone is born an original instead of a copy.At one time, the inheritance of traditional drama was difficult. People of insight screamed “save drama”. Many celebrities and big names put down their figures and went to the community to carry out public welfare performances of opera, and did everything possible to expand the coverage of drama. In recent years, traditional Chinese culture and art has gained a foothold on short video platforms and attracted a large number of young followersthanks to the explosive growth of the short video industry. Relaxing, emotional and fragmented, these video contents perfectly match the demands of the users. With the application of new technologies such as social communication and immersive experiencing, short video platforms are seeing more users, becoming a shining spot of new Internet media.Recently, Huangmei Opera “ Female Consort Prince ” became a hit on short video platforms as a lot of young users covered the aria (咏叹调) in their own way and showed great artistic talents. The interactive platforms are expanding the charm of the traditional opera among young people.Peking Opera was also well-received on short video platforms thanks to a series of augmented reality (AR) effects. Users love to film clips with a set of virtual facial makeup, headwear and costumes. Statistics indicate that these effects were applied by more than 18 million users, most of whom were young people.In addition to Chinese operas, intangible cultural heritage items, such as embroidery, paper-cutting, printing and dyeing, shadow play works, oiled paper umbrella making, and bamboo weaving are also actively promoted on short video platforms. In a word, short video platforms are becoming an important channel to display China’s intangible cultural heritage.Short video platforms, offering a fun, popular and easy way to explore the traditional art forms, are receiving a lot of positive feedbacks from China’s young generations. The seconds, or minutes long videos, along with unlimited possibilities as well as richness of styles, have produced remarkable achievements in promoting traditional Chinese culture.8．What mainly made the inheritance of traditional drama difficult?A．The slow growth of industry.B．The insufficient coverage of drama.C．The poorly-met demands of the users.D．The severe shortage of the drama actors. 9．What led to the promotion of Peking Opera on short video platform?A．The social communication.B．The set of virtual facial makeup.C．The positive feedbacks from users.D．The application of new technologies. 10．Why are paper-cutting and bamboo weaving mentioned?A．To expand the charm of traditional Chinese culture.B．To prove traditional art forms are actively promoted.C．To show the current situation of these cultural heritage.D．To offer new channels to display China’s cultural heritage.11．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．The Bright Future of Huangmei Opera.B．The Explosive Growth of the Short Video Industry.C．The Simple Way to Explore the Traditional Art Form.D．The Creative Combination of Culture and Technologies.Several years ago, Jeremy Clarkson, presenter of the famous BBC television programme “Top Gear” discovered that one of his guests was half German and half Irish. Immediately, he said: “That's quite a strange combination. It's like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”.This joke played on stereotypes (刻板印象) of the Germans as efficient and the Irish as lazy. Many people could understandably be offended by these kinds of assertions (断言).We do not know every Irish person, so how can we then conclude that every Irish person is lazy?I recently read on a website that Irish business people were described as being 'generally rather casual' and more outwardly friendly than many European counties'. German business people, on the other hand, are considered to be very direct and according to the website, they do not need a personal relationship in order to do business. Once you hear advice like this,it becomes easier to understand where jokes like the one in the first paragraph come from.So why do some people disapprove of the kind of stereotypes as seen in Clarkson's joke, but not baring an eyelid (眨眼) when it comes to generalizations. What is the difference between the two?By definition, a stereotype is a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing. A cultural characteristic, on the other hand, is a pattern of behaviour that is typical of a certain group.So what does this really mean? Stereotype are simply overstated assumptions about groups of people. Imagine if a tourist visited a small town in Switzerland and saw a number of locals playing the alphorn instrument, and then claimed that Swiss people can play the alphorn. This would be a stereotype! This is an overstated image of the Swiss which is based on one tourist's experience.If however, this tourist were to say that the Swiss are very punctual, this could be seen as a cultural characteristic. This is because it is a pattern of behaviour which is very typical in Switzerland: from their transport system to their business meetings in this way, some people argue that generalizing another culture is not just useful. but important. Politicians alwayshave to be mindful of the cultural characteristics of different countries. By becoming aware of different cultural characteristics,they can avoid causing offence (冒犯) in those cultures.However, others argue that generalizing cultures will always lead to offensive stereotypes. They argue that the best thing we can do is to stop generalizing cultures and start treating people as individuals.All this raises important questions: can making generalizations about groups of people be a positive thing? Or should we always avoid making broad assumptions about different groups?12．When he said, “it's like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”，Jeremy Clarkson really meant________.A．the stereotypes of the Germans and the Irish are not so goodB．the combination of half German and half Irish is interestingC．the characteristics of the Germans and the Irish are oppositeD．the Germans will do it perfectly tomorrow while the Irish won't13．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．It's typical of the Swiss to be punctual.B．The Swiss can play the alphorn quite well.C．The Irish people are considered as lazy, direct and casual.D．The Germans are thought to be efficient, friendly and direct.14．Politicians think it important to generalize another culture because________.A．they don't want to offend other peopleB．generalizing will lead to offensive stereotypesC．cultural characteristics are better than stereotypesD．they think different cultural characteristics are useful15．The main purpose of this passage is to________.A．illustrate the importance of making generalizationsB．show it is wrong to play jokes on stereotypes of different peopleC．tell us the differences between stereotypes and cultural characteristicsD．discuss whether it is good to make generalizations about groups of people二、七选五“Just think positively!”“It could be worse.”“You should look at the bright side!”We’ve all heard (and maybe used) these phrases without much thought. But they could be contributing to a culture of toxic(有毒的) positivity. For those new to this term, it might sound like an oxymoron(矛盾修辞法). How can positivity be toxic? Isn’t it supposed to be helpful, or “positive”, as the name suggests? 16“Toxic positivity is when somebody avoids all negative thoughts or feelings, pretending everything is going well when it is not,” explains Melissa Dowd, a therapist at PlushCare, a virtual health platform for primary care and mental health services.Whitney Goodman, the author of Toxic Positivity describes toxic positivity as the “endless pressure to be happy and positive, no matter what the circumstances are.” 17 It’s also something we can cause other people to experience.Expressing toxic positivity to others may look like offering them a simple solution to a complicated problem that we know nothing about, or not allowing people around you to appropriately express negative emotions.Toxic positivity causes us to suppress our emotions, which can make them worse.18 “Although it can be helpful to look on the bright side when facing challenges,” Dowd says, “not coping with negative feelings in a healthy way in the moment can lead to those feelings resurfacing later in different areas of your life or as a form of anxiety.” 19 “If I feel like you’re going to dismiss me, I’m going to stop sharing how I’m feeling,” Goodman adds.20 If you’re using toxic positivity against yourself, Goodman suggests remembering it’s OK if you’re upset about something. It’s valid if something annoys you. “Allow ourselves and other people to share when they’re going through a difficult time,” she says. Dowd adds that it’s essential that “we all learn to cope with and process our emotions in a healthy way as opposed to avoiding how we feel” as life’s stressors continue to rise. For example, instead of simply saying “Just think positively,” we’d better say “Sometimes bad things happen. How can I help?”A．Are there ways to avoid toxic positivity?B．Toxic positivity also disrupts connection.C．It can harm people who are going through difficult times.D．This can come up in different situations when we are dealing with pressure.E．They become more intense and can cause long-lasting health concerns in the future.F．Experts say constant forced positivity can lead to the opposite, and have a negative effect.G．This is what we may bring on to ourselves by not allowing negative thoughts and feelings.三、完形填空I am 39 I made it through.

四川省成都市第七中学2022-2023学年高一上学期第一次月考英语试题(模拟检测卷)1
2022新教材-外研版-必修一-成都七中-第一次月考（模拟检测卷）1第一部分阅读［共两节，满分50分］第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A篇Parents are the closest people to you in the world. They love you just because you areyou. And they would do anything for you.Like a lot of middle school students, Zhuang Shuxia has her problem. She and her parents don't get on well. “I really want to be my daddy's little girl. But he just doesn't understand. He speaks to me but doesn't listen to me,” said Zhuang, a Junior 3 student in Hebei. Of course, lots of kids feel that way. But you and your parents will be much happier if you can be friends. Why don't you take a walk and have a talk with your parents first? Here are some ways to have a good talk with them:Find a good time to talk, like when you're having dinner, going out for a walk or watching TV.Tell them something you're interested in, or ask them about their lives when they were young. They love to talk about it.Listen to them carefully, and look them in the eye.Be honest. Your parents will trust（信任）you more. And a trusting family is a happy family.1. Who are the closest people to us according to the passage?A. The people who love us.B. The people who understand us.C. Our father and mother.D. All the family members.2.Zhuang Shuxia's problem isA. her father doesn't think she works hard enoughB. her father doesn't like to speak to herC. she really wants to be a big girlD.she can't get on well with her parents3. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Your parents love you just because you are such a good child.B.Children and their parents will be happier if they make friends with each other.C.It is a good time for children to talk with their parents when having dinner.D.Children can win their parents' trust if they are honest.B篇Before you begin studying English，ask yourself one question: Why do I want to study English? Is it because you want to, or because someone else wants you to? Like every decision in life, studying English must be something you want to do.If you know why you want to study, setting goals is easy. For example, maybe you want to travel to an English-speaking country. Great, and your goal might be to learn “Survival English”. Perhaps you have already known many useful words, but you want to improve your listening skills and pronunciation. Whatever your goals are, write them down.How long do you need to study to achieve your goals? This answer is different for every student. The important thing is to be realistic. If you work 60 hours per week, don't plan on spending another 40 hours a week studying English. Start off slow，but study regularly（定期地）.Use material that is challenging but not too difficult. Find out what works for you. Afteryou have studied for a few weeks, change your study plan. Do you study best at night or on the bus on your way to work? Do you like to study alone in a quiet place or with friends and background music?Learning English requires a lot of motivations（动机）. Nobody is going to take your attendance when you aren't in class. If you are sure you are ready to begin studying, make a promise.The things we do best in life are the things we enjoy doing. If you aren't having fun learning English, you're not studying in the right way! You can be a serious student who has fun at the same time. Make up your own reward（奖励）program to give yourself motivation to go on with your task.()4. What does “Survival English” refer to?A. Something you need to protect yourself from danger.B. Something you learn to get through daily activities easily.C. Something you speak to save yourself in an emergency.D. Something you use to make yourself popular.( )5. What is focused on in the third paragraph?A. Having a motivation.B. Setting a goal.C. Making a plan.D. Finding a personal way.()6. What should you do in order to learn English well?A. Reward yourself for your own progress.B. Treat learning English as a serious thing.C. Enjoy learning English in a funny way.D.Get down to learning English immediately.( )7. What is the main idea of the passage?A. What to learn in English.B. Why we should learn English.C.When to learn English best.D. Where to start learning English.C篇Part of the reason that English has grown as a world language is that it easily adjusts to（适应）change. However，this means that what one was taught as a child in school may be out of date many years later. When words or phrases change, it can make speakers feel “wrong" because they were taught that something else was “right”.One example of this is a term connected to school itself. Today, it is common for people to say that they “graduated high school” or college. The word “graduate” has two common meanings. One is to mark off a series. The other meaning is closely related. As you move through school, you cross off a series of achievements: grade school, middle school, high school, and college. So, in a way, school itself is “graduated.”So, when people used to speak of getting a degree, they said they “graduated from college.” “To graduate college" would have meant to mark it off by year -the first year, the second year etc. Similarly, “to graduate to college” would have meant to complete high school and move up to the next level.But as happens often in English, when people understand your meaning, smaller words can disappear. “I graduated college" is now easy to say. This may distress people who were taught that you had to use “from” to be correct. But this is not the first time this phrase has been simplified. It used to be that you said, “I was graduated from college, "instead of, “I graduated from college.”You can't know what English will keep and what it will lose. Who could imagine that we would still say we “dial” a phone number when we now push buttons on our cellphone? Yet we know what it means.8. What do we know about the word “graduate”?A. It has two similar meanings.B. There was a change in its meanings.C. It had nothing to do with school at first.D. It got an extra meaning during its development.9. Which of the following is the newest usage of “graduate”?A. I was graduated from college.B.I was to graduate to college.C.I graduated from college.D.I graduated college.10. The underlined word “distress" probably means“A. changeB. correctC. worryD. hurt11. What's the best title for the text?A. Right or wrong?B. Words come and go in EnglishC. English is a very changeable languageD. How should English be taught in school?D篇Research has found that adults today have fewer friends than they did in the 1980s, and that more people say they have no one to discuss important stuff with.Play the violin. Not just play it-and sing along. A new study suggests that singing is an effective way to make new friends because it helps us bond quickly with others.For the study, led by Eiluned Pearce, Ph. D. at Oxford University, researchers looked at participants aged 18 to 83 in adult education classes organized by the Workers' Education Association in the UK. Eighty-four participants were enrolled in one of four singing classes; 51 participants were enrolled in one of two creative crafts classes or a creative writing class.Over a period of seven months, the classes went weekly. During the first, third, and final months, researchers asked participants to tell how close they felt to their classmates. Results showed something surprising. Although participants in all the classes felt closer to their classmates by the study's end, participants in the singing classes developed that closeness much more quickly.As for why exactly singing leads to fast group bonding, the researchers say one possible reason is that everyone does it at the same time. Compare that with creative writing or crafting, where everyone is working on an individual project. Another possible cause, according to theresearchers, is that singing involves muscular effort, which causes the release of certain molecules （分子）that can make us happier and more willing to cooperate.The point here is that singing can be a great icebreaker among large groups of strangers, which can lead to individual friendships down the line. “Really close relationships still depend on communication between individuals or much smaller groups，” Pearce said in a release（发布会），“but this study shows singing can start the bonding process.”12. What has research found about today's adults?A. They don't really want friends.B. They are looking for new friends.C. They have fewer friends than before.D. They like discussing important things with friends.13. The researchers didn't expect that___________.A. creative writing classes would help people bondB. the participants would become closer to othersC. so many participants would take singing classesD. participants in the singing classes would bond so quickly14. Paragraph 5 shows that reasons for the results of the research are____________.A. very cheeringC. a bit confusingB. very interestingD. not completely possible15. According to Eiluned Pearce, really close relationshipsA. rely on individual communicationB. depend on one's attitudeC. often occur in large groupsD. are easy to develop第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

A篇We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn't even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed to a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floor.""Yes. I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them," the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, "But aren't you working later?"Mum just pushed harder, each swipe(拖一下) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book.After a long time，Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you."Outside, Mum told me, "Dagmar is fine. No fever.""You saw her, Mum?""Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It's a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush."1.When she took a mop from the small room，what Mum really wanted to do was________.A. to clean the floorB. to please the nurseC. to see a patientD. to surprise the story-teller2. After reading the story what can we infer about the hospital?A. It is a children's hospital.B. It has strict rules about visiting hours.C. The conditions there aren't very good.D. The nurse and doctors there don't work hard.3. Which of the following words best describes Mum?A. Strange.B. Warm-hearted.C. Clever.D. Hard-working.B篇One summer evening I was sitting by the open window, reading a good science story book. I was so interested in the story I was reading that I did not notice that it was getting dark. When I realized it was too dark for me to read easily, I put the book down and get up to turn on the light. Just then I heard someone crying: "Help! Help!" It seemed to come from the trees at the other end of the yard. I looked out but it was now too dark to see anything clearly. Almost immediately I heard the cry again. It sounded like a child, but I could not imagine what anybody would be doingin our backyard, unless one of the neighborhood children had climbed a tree and had not been able to get down.I decided that I ought to go out and have a look in the yard, just in case someone was in trouble. I got a flashlight and a stick, I thought it might be useful. Armed with these, I went out into the yard. Once again I heard the cry and this time there was no doubt that it came from the trees at the far end of the yard. "Who's there?" I called out as I walked across the yard toward the trees. But there was no answer. With the help of my flashlight, I searched all over that end of the yard, including the branches of the trees. There was no sign of anybody or anything. I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks to me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet.Feeling rather foolish about hunting around in my own backyard with a baseball bat, I went back into the house and put the bat and flashlight away. I had just sat down to read my book again when I was frightened by the cry of "Help! Help!" This time from right behind me. I dropped my book and jumped up. There, sitting on the table was a large green and red bird. It was my neighbour's parrot! While I was out in the yard, the parrot must have seen the light in the living room and come in through the open window.4. One summer evening the writer was reading ________.A. with the window openB. in the open airC. in the back yardD. with the window closed5. The cry the writer first heard seemed _______.A. to come from the trees in the backyardB. to come from the neighbour's houseC. to come from the writer's reading-roomD. to come from far away6. The writer searched the yard carefully _______.A. and found a childB. but found nobody and nothingC. and found something called imaginationD. and found some strange creatures from another planet7.The book that the writer was reading was _______.A. an ordinary story bookB. a science book about soundC. a story about creatures on another planetD. a book on how to play tricks8. The cries were made by _______.A. the writer's imaginationB. the neighbour's parrotC. the neighbour's childD. the writer's sonC篇My dad doesn’t seem like the kind of guy who would bake（烤）great bread，but he is and he does. Every Saturday he produces homemade bread. When he's done, the whole house smellsdelicious.The rest of the week, Dad fixes cars at work. The shop where Dad works doesn't have enough work, so he's under a lot of stress（压力）.I think Dad began baking bread to help him relax.I've been feeling kind of stressed out myself since I found out I didn't make the school swim team. Now I'll have to wait a whole year to try out again. Plus, I'm taking some difficult classes this year.I think Dad knew I was feeling bad. Last Saturday he asked me how things were going. I said OK, even though I didn't feel OK at all. He looked at me for a moment, and then he said it was time for me to help. Then he headed to the kitchen.I followed right behind him. Once we were there, Dad took out his big mixing bowl, handed me a large wooden spoon, and told me to mix while he added the ingredients（烹饪原料）. Dad isn't big on measuring, but he knows how much of each ingredient to use, and the bread always turns out great.When I finished stirring, Dad showed me how to knead the dough（揉面团）.Next came the most difficult part-doing nothing. We put the dough back into the bowl and then we waited for more than an hour for the dough to slowly rise and double in size. Next, we divided it into two and waited for it to rise again. Afterward, we put the dough into pans and waited another hour for the dough to rise and double.Dad said the waiting is always the hardest part. “It's hard to resist（抵制）putting the dough directly into the oven（烤箱），but if you do，the bread wil1 be hard．The most important lesson of all is learning to be.” Dad taught me more than how to bake bread.9. What can we learn about the author's father?A. He is living a relaxing life.B. He tries his best to make ends meet.C. He manages to balance work and life.D. He is more like a baker than a mechanic.10. Why is the author feeling stressed?A. School isn't going well.B. She dislikes making bread.C. She feels sorry for her father.D. Some classes aren't worth it.11. What do the underlined words "Dad isn't big on measuring” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Dad is unskilled.B. Dad dislikes measuring.C. Dad has a craze for measuring.D. Dad is careful about ingredients.12. What lesson has the author learned from her dad?A. Never give up.B. Take life easily.C. Believe in yourself.D. Enjoy time with family.D篇When I met and married a Japanese man in New York, I thought he would learn a bit more English and we would continue to live our lives there. But in life's twists and turns, we ended up living in Tokyo! I was the one who needed to learn Japanese and fast! There is no experience quite as lonely as living in a foreign country without a grasp of the language. Especially to make friends and to break that loneliness, it is the first and foremost goal to attain...always an uphill climb, while totally awkward!I was a trained English Language teacher, and while I lived abroad I did that work, and when we moved back to America I planned to continue it. The country's financial difficulties at the time, however, saw deep cuts to the English as a second language in schools and to refugee language programs. So I simply took a job in a department store, at its Child Playroom.But this store was located near a major company that hired some of its workforce from many other countries. Often a preschooler in my playroom could not speak a word of English, and would look so lost and lonely! My heart flew to them! We interacted with each other a lot. We would play English language games and they would teach their language to me.Years later, when a small girl who had come from South America could speak good English, she said to me, “Teacher, remember when I called you Maestra?”Another child whose language was only Russian originally-we built a robot from blocks and fed it block food and learned English words that way-would come years afterwards and continue to play that same game! These moments became my life compass-due north is that place where when persons are different, Love Matters!13. What was the author's challenge after marriage?A. She had to give up her job.B. She lost all her best friends.C. She needed to learn a new language.D. She was forced to live overseas.14. Why did the author change her job after she returned home?A. She set up her own company.B. She lost interest in teaching.C. Better teachers were needed.D. Teaching jobs were greatly reduced.A. They learned each other's languages.B. They took language tests.C. They cared for each other.D. They encouraged each other in learning.15. Which word can best describe the author's interactions with children?A. Tiring.B. Helpful.C. Simple.D. Humorous.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2021-2022学年四川省成都市第七中学高一英语联考试题含解析
2021-2022学年四川省成都市第七中学高一英语联考试题含解析一、选择题1. According to the survey, the reason ____ people are unhappy is ____ they do not haveenough love.A. that; thatB. why; becauseC. why; thatD. /; that参考答案：C2. He made______ little progress______ his parents felt very disappointed.A. such, thatB. so, thatC. such; asD. so, as参考答案：B试题分析：考查特殊结构和状语从句。
记住such修饰名词，so修饰形容词或副词，其常用结构: such a/an + adj +n, so +adj+a/an+n.及so little（少）/few/much /many（多少）+n。
本句中little表示少，所以用so修饰little progress。
另外本句中that引导的是结果状语从句而不是定语从句。
句意：他取得了如此小的进步，以至于他的父母亲感觉很失望。
【名师点睛】句式so...that和such...that “如此...以至于...”的用法区别Such修饰名词，so修饰形容词或副词。
常用结构：Such a/an +adj+n,so +adj+a/an+n.，但so little/few/much /many（多少）+n.是一个套用结构。
连词that引导结构状语从句。
3. — ________she can't find her keys?— She'll be locked out all night.— You are right.I'd better call her to check if she's OK.A. What aboutB. What withC. What ifD. What for参考答案：CWhat if ...？意为“要是(倘若)……该怎么办？”符合句意。

2021D.is sponsored by Singapore Development BoardBUnlike Hillary Clinton,and most previous US presidents,who entered the election after years of being politicians, Trump,70,the country’s 45th president,was a New York businessman.And he was not a presidential candidate who worked hard to keep a perfect public image (形象) of a man who was always caring,fair and intelligent.In stead, Trump has a reputation of beingbad-tempered,self-important and hateful toward those who disagree with him.He also blames immigrants,both from Latin America and the Middle East,for many problems in the US.This has caused a dangerous division in the country-a country made up of many diverse races.Furthermore,he opposes globalization.But to his supporters,the fact that Trump is not a typical politician is actually one of his advantages,His habit of never hiding his opinions is also considered by many to be a sign that he is not a pretender like many politicians are. “We have seen our country take a fall in the eyes of the world.We need to go in a different direction,”Binyomin Weisswasser,39,a man from Chicago,told the Chicago Tribune.“Trump’s not a politician,I like that he is not always politically correct and speaks his mind,It gives me the feeling that what you see is what you get,You may not like it, but you know what it is.”But interestingly,many who voted for Trump actually followed the “lesser of two evils(两害相权取其轻)” principle-one that people use when faced with picking from two unpleasant options - simply because they didn’t think Clinton was a better choice.“He’s the candidate I disagree less with,” Jack Stucky,20,a student at Northwestern University, told the Chicago Tribune.“I don’t think I’d say Donald Trump is going to be the best president ever,but I did think he’d be better than Hillary Clinton.”25.What can we learn from the text?A.Trump is more tolerant to immigrants.B.Trump minds more about keeping his public image perfect.C.Trump is thought to be

population is over 65,a figure set to rise to 40 percent by 2050.That means authorities need to think about ways to keep seniors healthy and active for longer but also about how to cope with labor shortages.At Cross Heart,more than half of the 119 caregivers are over 60,and 15 of them are over 70.The foundation that runs this nursing home and others in Kanagawa Prefecture has raised the official retirement age to 70 but allows employees to keep working until 80 if they want to and can.Although older workers have constraints-some can’t do the heavier tasks -they also offer advantages over younger workers who want time off for their children,said nursing home director Kaori Yokoo.“Plus,because they’re close in age,they can relate to each other more,” she said.For the older workers,the money is a nice benefit,but the main motivation is the activity and sense of community.Hiroko Akiyama.at the University of Tokyo’s Institute of Gerontology,said a Japanese65-year-old is in much better physical and mental shape than a 65-year-old a few decades ago.“They are full of energy,and healthy and long-living,” she said.Her research has found that working helps keep seniors that way.Meanwhile,researchers are working on robots that can lift the elderly out of beds and wheelchairs.Still,Japan can’t rely only on seniors or,potentially,robots to staff its nursing homes,where the need will only grow as the population ages,analysts say.Japan has agreements with Indonesia,Vietnam and the Philippines under which applicants who complete job training and pass a Japanese language test can work at a Japanese nursing home.But many Japanese also express deep concern about cultural differences.28.From the text we can learn that in Japan________.A.money will be spent increasing the
