AThe Doctor’s CallThere was ice on the road, and the doct or’s car hit a tree and turned over three times. To his surprise, he was not hurt. He got out of the car and walked to the nearest house. He wanted to telephone the garage (汽车修理站) for help. The door was opened by one of his patients.“Oh, Doctor.” she said, “I have only just telephoned you. You must have a very fast car. You have got here very quickly indeed. There has been a very bad accident in the road outside. I saw it through the window. I am sure the driver will need your help.”1. Which of the following was the cause of the accident?A. Careless driving.B. A tree had fallen across the road.C. A slippery (滑) road.D. There was a thick fog.2. Why did the woman patient telephone the doctor?A. She needed medical treatment.B. She believed somebody else needed a doctor.C. To ask how quickly the doctor could come.D. To ask whether the doctor was coming on his regular visit.3. How did the woman feel on opening the door and seeing the doctor?A. She had been expecting the doctor, but was surprised that he had come so quickly.B. She had not expected the doctor and wondered why he had come.C. She felt glad that the doctor was not hurt in the accident.D. She was alarmed (惊慌) at seeing the doctor in a bad state after the accidentBAn old friend from California called from the airport to tell me that he had arrived. I was not able to leave the office, but I had made plans for his arrival. After explaining where my new house was, I told him that I had left the key under the doormat (门垫). Since I knew it would be pretty late before I could get home, I suggested that he make himself at home and help himself to anything that was in the refrigerator(电冰箱).Two hours later, my friend phoned me from the house. At the moment, he said, he was listening to some of my records after having had a delicious meal. Now, he said, he was drinking a glass of orange juice. When I asked him if he had had any difficulty finding the house, he answered that the only problem was that he had not been able to find the key under the doormat, but luckily, the living room window by the apple tree had been left open and he had climbed in through the window. I listened to all this in great surprise. There is no apple tree outside my window, but there is one by the living room window of my next door neighbor's house!4. An old friend of mine called ______.A. to tell me to meet him at the airportB. to tell me about his arrivalC. to ask me to leave the officeD. to ask me to make plans for his arrival5. My friend climbed into the room because ______ .A. there was an apple tree outsideB. the living room window was left openC. he had difficulty opening the doorD. he hadn't found the key6. My friend telephoned me two hours later ______ .A. from my homeB. at the airportC. in his officeD. from my neighbor's house7. Why was the author surprised when he listened to all this ?A. There is no apple tree outside his window.B. His friend ate too much.C. His friend is so brave.D. His neighbor helped his friend.CIn choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability .Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for mistakes in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!8. Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?A. understandingB. honestyC. reliabilityD. a sense of humor9. If you have “fair weather friends,”(Para.1) ______.A. they will give you all that they have when you need helpB. you will be refused when you get into troubleC. you will become richD. you can be sure that you get real friends10. This passage mainly discuss ______ .A. the qualities of a friendB. where to choose friendsC. how to get along with friendsD. the importance of having a friendDIf you ask some people, “How did you learn English so well?” you may get a surprising answer: “In my sleep!”These are people who have taken part in one of the recent experiments to test the learn-while-you-sleep method, which is now being tried in several countries, and with several subjects. English is among them.Scientists say that this sleep-study method greatly speeds language learning. They say that the ordinary person can learn two or three times as much during sleep as in the same period during the day — and this does not affect his rest in any way. However, sleep teaching will only put into your head what you have studied already while you are awake.In one experiment, ten lessons were broadcast over the radio for two weeks. Each lesson lasted twelve hours — from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. The first three hours of English grammar and vocabulary were given with the students awake. At 11 p.m. a lullaby (催眠曲) was broadcast to send the student to sleep and for the next three hours the radio in a soft and low voice broadcast the lesson again into his sleeping ears. At 2 a.m. a sharp noise was sent over the radio to wake the sleeping student up for a few minutes to go over the lesson. The soft music sent him back to rest again while the radio went on. At 5o’clock his sleep ended and he had to go through the lesson again for three hours before breakfast.11. With the learn-while-you-sleep method, one____ .A. starts to learn a new lesson in sleepB. learns how to sleep betterC. is made to remember his lesson in sleepD. can listen to the radio broadcast while lying in bed12. In the experiment, lessons were given____ .A. in the night timeB. after lullabies were broadcastC. while the student was awakeD. all through the twelve hours without stop13. At the end of the lesson, the student has to____ .A. get up and take breakfastB. be woken up by a loud voiceC. listen to the lesson again in sleepD. review the lesson for three hours14. The sleep-study method is being tried in many countries to teach____ .A. the English languageB. grammar and vocabularyC. a number of subjectsD. foreign languages15. What is t he meaning of “put into your head” in paragraph 3?A. 把头脑放进去B. 使你记住C. 洗脑D. 休息头脑第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。

2017---2018学年上学期高一第一次月考英语试卷第Ⅰ卷第二部分阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、 C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上半该项涂黑。

AJean is a bright young woman who comes from a rich and famous family. She goes to a good university and has everything that money can buy. Well, almost everything. The problem is that the people in Jean‘s family are so busy that they can hardly find time to be with her. In fact, Jean is quite lonely.So Jean spends a lot of time on her QQ. She likes being anonymous(匿名), talking to people who do not know about her famous family and her rich life. She uses the name Linda on QQ and has made a lot of friends who she keeps in touch with quite often.Last year Jean made a very special friend on QQ. His name was David and lived in San Francisco. David was full of stories and jokes. He and Jean had a common(共同的) interest in rock music and modern dance. So it always took them hours to talk happily on QQ and sometimes they even forgot their time. Of course, they wanted to know more about each other. David sent a picture of himself: He was a tall, good-looking young man with a big, happy smile. As time went by, they became good friends and often sent cards and small things to each other.When Jean‘s father told her that he was going on a business tri p to San Francisco, she asked him to let her go with him so that she could give David a surprise for his birthday. She would take him the latest DVD of their favorite rock singer. But when she knocked on David‘s door in San Francisco, she found that her sp ecial friend was a twelve-year-old boy named Jim!21. Jean spends a lot of her time on QQ because she is _______.A. richB. famousC. youngD. lonely22. Jean thought “David” was special because he _______.A. made her quite happy on QQB. was from San FranciscoC. sent her a picture of himselfD. was tall and good-looking23. When Jean and “David” met and introduced themselves to each other, who felt surprised?A. ―David‖.B. Both ―David‖ and Jea n.C. Jean.D. Neither ―David‖ nor Jean.BEveryone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Surely there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never hadNo two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well, which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, and then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way.

It found that 30 percent of them got just 4 to 7 hours sleep every day. But doctors say they need 8 to 9Almost a quarter of the kids said they fell asleep more than once a week while watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic products.―This is very worrying.‖ said Dr Chris Idzikowski, a British expert,―We call it ‗junk sleep‘, It means you don‘t get enough sleep and the quality of the sleep is bad, too. If you don‘t get good rest, you don‘t perform well in school the next day.‖The survey found that 40 percent of the kids felt tired each day, with girls between 13 and 16 feeling the worst.

"Here, take this!" the man said, stood up and got off the bus before Nick could say a word.Nick sat there holding the envelope. It felt heavy. There were papers inside, or money perhaps. "I'd better hand it over to the police," he thought. There was a police station close to his office. But, as he got off the bus, a man came to him. He seemed to be waiting for something. "He wants the envelope," Nick thought. Nick began to walk quickly, and the man hurried after him. Nick started to run, and the man began to run, too. But then, just before he got to the police station, Nick managed to lose the man in the crowds(人群).When he entered the police station, the man was no longer in sight. Inside the police station, Nick handed over the envelope to a policeman in charge. The man opened it. The envelope was full of money, false (假的)money. ―Clearly the man made a mistake," the policeman said. "He thought you were one of the gang(团伙)!‖Nick felt like a hero. He could already see his name in all the papers. He could imagine an interview on television.―However," the policeman went on, "I'm afraid I must ask you to keep quiet about all this. We‘re trying to catch some very clever thieves, and we d on't want them to knowthat we have some of the money.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.( A )Imagine being a famous writer or a poet. What would life be like? Sitting at desk all day long writing down inspiring words? Racking one’s brain for hours until inspiration comes? Actually , such a portrayal is very much mistaken. The truth is most writers need a day job to earn their living, and even after rising to fame, some of them still keep their day jobs for various reasons.As writing was not profitable in itself, many authors needed a day job for financial support. The famous British writer Virginia Woof ran a publishing house apart from writing. She founded it together with her husband and it was they who first discovered and published T.S. Eliot’s well-known poem The Waste Land. T.S. Eliot himself worked as a bank clerk for nearly a decade, during which time he completed and published The West Land. Then he also chose publishing as a day job and joined a publishing company called Faber&Faber.Some writers remained passionate about their day jobs and were reluctant to leave them even they became famous. Lewis Carroll, the writer of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, was actually a mathematician. He wrote a lot of books on mathematics under his real name, Charles Dodgson. The day job that took up nearly half of his lifetime was being a teacher at Christ Church, the largest college of the University of Oxford. He taught there for 26 years until his death.To some writers , a day job was also a good source of writing material. Herman Melville , now one of the most recognized writers in Americas, had to take up any job that paid the bills. He used to work as a surveyor, a shipman, a teacher, a lecturer and a customs inspector. His most significant working experience was being a shipman on a whaler(捕鲸船) in the Pacific, from which he drew inspiration for Moby Dick(《白鲸记》).52. Which of the following is NOT a reason why authors keep day jobs?A. To support their lifeB. To collect writing materialsC. To pay the billsD. To have a high social status.53. Which of these authors worked as a teacher?A. T.S.EliotB. Virgina WoolfC. Ernest HemmingwayD. Lewis Carroll54. T.S. Eliot leave the bank _____________.A. when he was writing The Waste LandB. when he met Virinia WoolfC. after he pubished The Waste LandD. after he joined Faber& Faber55. According to the passage , what was Herman Melville’s life like?A. FamousB. LeisurelyC. PoorD. Successful( B)It is hard to calculate the number of festivals and holidays around the world because there are simply too many of them! People have all kinds of local festivals, and some international festivals are celebrated in different ways in various countries. Have you ever wondered why people need festivals?Some of the festivals come from religious beliefs, such as Christmas. It originated among Christians but has now become a public holiday for everyone around the world. However, there are other reasons why we hold festivals. They break up the flow of the year and blind us together as families and communities.Festivals and holidays are fun escape from our regular schedules. Without holidays our weeks would run together into years of boredom. What is October without children ringing our doorbells asking for candy? What is November without turkey on the table and family around it? What is February with no hear-shaped boxes decorating the kitchen counter? The answer is : boring months.We also celebrate festivals because they are reasons to reconnected with family and long lost friends. Many people do not have the freedom to meet families and close friends at any time. Festivals and holidays give us the chance. Furthermore, festivals, festivals bring us together as a community. Many people make holidays the times they reach out to other people. The bright and hearts decorating department stores in February, the blinking lights hanging on lamp posts in December—these help us feel connected to something larger than ourselves.In a world where get-toghers and barbecues do not happen as much as they used to in decades past, in a world where no one borrow sugar from his or her neighbor any longer or bakes a cake when someone moves on to the block, festivals tie us together.Therefore, everyone should make the most of their festival times. Get out and decorate your home at Christmastime. Surprise your spouse, boyfriend or girlfriend with a Valentine’s Day gift. And definitely have fun at Halloween. Even if you do not enjoy Halloween, I guarantee the children in your neighborhood will appreciate your dressing up, putting a graveyard in your front yard and passing out candy!56. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Holidays and festivals are an important part of culture.B. People celebrate the same festivals in different ways.C. Festivals make us feel closer to each other.D. Christmas is a festival only for Christians.57. What does the underlined word” originate” (in the second paragraph) mean in this article?A. take placeB. celebrateC. come into beingD. invite58. Why do festivals connect families and friends?A. Because people have the chance to meet each other.B. Because department stores and lamp posts are decorated.C. Because we cann’t escape from work and fixed schedules.D. Because we feel we are a community.59. What does the fifth paragraph suggest?A. People do not go to barbecues nowdays.B. We don’t have as strong as a sense of community as we used to.C. Few people give food to neighbors.D. There are fewer social activities we enjoy during festivals.Section C (4 分)Directions : Read the following passage and choose the most suitable statement from A-F for each blank. There are two extra statements, which you do not need.This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy. They stare off into space and wander by themselves. They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. __60__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.__61__ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep.__62__Finally, you never know what a wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away.___63__Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.A. Having interesting things to think about also helps.B. Without wandering minds, we wouldn’t have relatively, Coke or Post-it notes.C. At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.D. It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm andattentive.E. Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may behard to understand.F. Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re inthe daydream zone.第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ. Fill in the blanks according to the text you’ve learned.(10分)A. 1.

2017-2018学年高一英语上学期第一次月考试题_4

2017-2018学年高一英语上学期第一次月考试题第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,共30分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,填在答题卡上。

AWhile most high school students spend most of their time worrying about who likes who, and different relationships betw een their classmates, I choose to focus on my school lessons and sports.When I was young, my mother encouraged me to develop and keep friendship with boys in order to build strong relations hips. But she told me not to risk a good friendship with a boy with the title of boyfriend. It's indeed a wise choice to stay frie nds with those of the opposite sex(异性). In my opinion, even though some high school relationshi p might continue after graduation, the probability of them lasti ng much longer is so slim (微小的) that there really is not a point to it.Firstly you have to think about such a question----whether it is possible to hurt both of you, or even hurt both of your future husbands or wives. My second point is that you sti ll can date(约会) if you hope marriage could possibly follow. Except this, th ere really is not any other reason for dating. Some students d esire relationships for a chance to be romantic. While these ar e nice to have, there are many more important things at this p oint in our lives.The titles of boyfriend and girlfriend put too much stress on a relationship between high school students. Just staying as c ommon friends may be the best choice for us. I strongly advis e we should deal with it in a proper way and follow our teache rs’ advice if necessary.21. The author writes this passage probably for_ to read.A. high school studentsB. school teachersC. parents and teachersD. married couples22. Between the opposite sexes, the relationship of being go od friends might be__ than that of being boy/girl friends.A. weakerB. saferC. slimmerD. stronger23. How does the writer like the idea of dating among the stu dents?A. Dating is a nice chance for students to be romantic.B. Studying is far more important than dating in schoolC. In high school dating can surely lead to future marriageD. Dating in high school is sure to hurt your future family24. The underlined word "it" in the last paragraph might refer to_ .A. the title of boyfriend or girlfriend at schoolB. advice given by both teachers and parentsC. the pressure from school lessons and sportsD. the relationship between students of opposite sexesB“Let’s go Dutch, shall we?” Jim said after a dinner to his frie nds in a restaurant. What does Jim mean?Long ago, there was a kind of dinner called Dutch treat. At a Dutch treat, the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share of the food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means whe n friends go out to have fun, each person pays his or her own share.There are many other expressions related with “Dutch” in Am erican English. However, most of them were first used in Engl and in the 17th century. At that time, the British and the Dutch were war enemies. So when British people talked about som ething wrong or bad, they would like to use the word “Dutch”.A common expression heard a few years ago was in Dutch. A friend may tell you, “You are in Dutch. The teacher is angry w ith you. Be careful!” When a soldier took Dutch leave, he left t he army without permission. Dutch courage is the false coura ge produced by the effects of drinking wine. When someone h as just said something you don’t believe is true, you can say “I am a Dutch-man.”There is one expression that did come from the Dutch. That is to talk like a Dutch uncle. The Dutch were known for the strict and serious way they educated their children.25. From the passage we can know the Dutch means the peo ple or the language of _ .A. NetherlandsB. BritainC. EnglandD. America26. What did people mean by saying “Let’s go Dutch”?A. The guests should leave first.B. Each person should pay his or her own billC. The food should be better next time.D. People should go to another restaurant.27. When you hear someone say “I have got a date with Cind y. ”, you may answer like this: _ .A.Oh, you talk like a Dutch uncleB.Aha! You are in DutchC.Go Dutch with meD.Oh yeah, and I am a Dutchman28. The passage is mainly about _ .A.language and history B.some expressions C.the Dutch and history D.idioms about Dutc hCI climbed Kilimanjaro with Lava Expeditions during the rainy s eason.I flew to Nairobi in Kenya and spent several days there. At my hotel in Nairobi I met the rest of the group with whom I would spend the next week. We all travelled on the bus together for a 6-hour journey into Tanzania and then Arusha, a quiet town.After we arrived at our hotel in Arusha, we had dinner an d a few drinks. Then we were introduced to more members in cluding Taddeus Minja, the main guide, who was very experie nced—climbing Kilimanjaro runs through the generations of his famil y.The next day the Lava Expeditions members checked if we had the correct and enough clothing for our expedition on Kilimanjaro. Only one person needed to bring more clothes. After that we set off, walking in the rain through the beauty of t he rainforest, all the way to the first camp.

Mr. Smart had a hip (髋关节) replacement in February at the Burnie hospital but was ru shed back two months later with internal bleeding.“The doctors couldn’t stop the bleeding,” Mrs. Smart said. Me dical staff told Mrs. Smart to contact her family, which include s children in Western Australia. “It took two days for them to g et here. We had to hope he lived through.” He did.“The doctors were there 24 hours a day and they stopped the bleeding. They brought him back,” Mrs. Smart said. “I certainl y believe in miracles because I’ve seen one happen, but it wo uldn’t have happened if the doctors didn’t do what they did.”It was the second time Mrs. Smart had thought she was losin g her husband of 54 years. Two years ago, Mr. Smart was ad mitted to the Launceston General Hospital after a heart attack and a few days later with Hospital after a heart attack and a f ew days later with intense pain caused by a hemorrhage (出血).

But to face the same situation only two yearslater was hard.

2017-2018学年高一英语上学期第一次月考试题_12

2017-2018学年高一英语上学期第一次月考试题第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

AAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between America ns can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations cha nge. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christ mas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a wh ile — then no more. If the same two people meet again by ch ance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can b e quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friends hips between us flower more slowly but then may become lifel ong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal ever yday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practic e in our country where we may be generous with our time. So metimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the mid dle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, ex press their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not mana ge the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily r outine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will p hone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the wel come will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treate d hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invit e a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!1. The writer of this passage must be ______.A. an AmericanB. a ChineseC. a professorD. a student2. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we ar rive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.A. warmly welcomed at the airportB. offered a ride to his homeC. treated hospitably at his homeD. treated to dinner in a restaurant3. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.A. strict with timeB. serious with timeC. careful with timeD. willing to spend time4. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.A. Friendships between ChineseB. Friendships between AmericansC. Americans’ hospitalityD. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendshipsBMr. Brown worked in a factory of a small town. He had been t here for twenty years before one day he was sent to the capit al for important business. He was quite excited because he h ad never been there before. Before he set off, he asked his wi fe and three daughters if they wanted him to buy something fo r them in Lon-don. Mrs. Brown began to think it over and then she said she wished her husband would be able tobuy a nice umbrella for her, and so did their three daughters. As he was afraid he would forget it, he drew an umbrella on hi s hand. To his regret, he lost it at the station.On the train Mr. Brown sat opposite to an old woman. The wo man’s umbrella was so nice that he carefully looked at it and s aid to himself not to forget to buy a few umbrellas like it. Whe n the train arrived at the station in London, he said good-bye to the old woman, took his bag and her umbrella and was going to get off.“Wait a minute, sir,” shouted the old woman. “That’s my umbr ella!”Now Mr. Brown noticed that he had taken her umbrella. His face turned red at once and said in a hurry,“Oh,I’m very sorry, Madam! I didn’t mean it!”Seven days later Mr. Brown left the capital. To his surprise, he met the old woman and sat opposite to her again. Looking at the four umbrellas, the old woman was satisfied with herself. “It seems that I had a better result than t he other four women.” She thought.5. We can learn from the passage that Mr. Brown was ______.A. a conductorB. a workerC. a thiefD. an umbrella maker6. Why did Mr. Brown take the woman’s umbrella?A. Because he was lost in thought.B. Because it was much like his own umbrella.C. Because he thought the woman would not notice it.D. Because the woman misplaced it beside Mr. Brown.7. How did Mr. Brown get the four umbrellas?A. He picked them on the train.B. He brought them from his small town.C. He bought them in London.D. He stole them from four women.CLearners of English, especially self-taught learners may have trouble in understanding speeches by native speakers. The following ways might help improve th eir listening ability.First of all, do things step by step. It is not good to listen to so mething beyond your level. Better choose a suitable course a nd start with the first book. Go on to the second book only afte r you are sure you understand the first one.Secondly, stick to one course of study. Don’t change books of ten. Never let your attention be attracted by another course ju st because it seems to be more “fashionable”.Thirdly, listen to the English news program over the radio fro m time to time. Better go through the news stories in the Chin ese-language newspaper first. That will make it easy for you to un derstand the English news on the radio.Fourthly, if you have time, listen to some interesting stories in some special English programs, such as VOA. or other listening materials of the same level as that of yo ur textbook.8. This is a piece of advice to learners of English on how to__ ____.A. read fastB.improve their listening abilityC. write better English and read fasterD. speak correctly9. If you want to understand the English news program on the radio, you should________.A. read the Chinese language newspaper step by stepB. read again and again the Chinese language newspaperC. go through the Chinese language newspaper firstD. be able to recite the Chinese language newspaper10. The author advised that once you have taken up a course, you _______.A. shouldn’t do anything elseB. should begin with the last bookC. should take up other courses if they are more fashionabl eD. should stick to it.11. In this passage, VOA stands for_______.A. a bookB. a magazineC. a radio stationD. a text-bookDSooner or later, most students are to take some form of Engli sh examinations. Often the more successful students are bett er prepared. However, sometimes students who do well havebetter test taking skills. These abilities really have nothing to d o with understanding English better. They are skills that make taking the test easier, and therefore provide better results. Here are some very important—and often ignored—guidelines to taking a test successfully.Do not insist on completing each question before going to the next. This is extremely important. Rememberone question may only be worth one point! You will become nervous when you fail to find out its answer, making you lose your concentration and leading to worse results. However, an swering the questions you are sure you know results in your b eing more relaxed and feeling more confident.Go through the test a second time working out the answers to more difficult questions. Sometimes questions asked are ans wered in later questions asking for different things.Usually(but not always) a strong first impulse(冲动) means we know the answer and we don’t really have to thi nk about it too much. Going back to think about it usually mak es you unsure and often causes a mistake. This is very comm on, so be very careful!If you don’t know the answer, write something. If you are ans wering a 4 possibility multiple choice question you will still hav e a 25% chance of being correct!Taking a test is as much for you as is for your teacher, so nev er cheat. If you cheat, you don’t help yourself in the long run.12. In the first paragraph, the writer stresses the importance of ______.A. better skills at taking exams.B. better underst anding of English.C. better preparations for exams.D. better results of taking exams.13. When taking an exam, you are advised ______.A. to depend on your first impulse to answer the questions.B. to first answer the questions which are easier to you.C. to search the test paper for all the answers to the question s.D. to give up the questions whose answers you don’t know.14. It is common that many students______.A. pay much attention to their testing skills.B. often give up a difficult test halfway.C. often get higher results by cheating.D. don’t believe in their first impulse.15. What would be the best title of the passage?A. Effective Test Taking Skills.B. Effective Stu dying Methods.C. Getting Better Exam Results.D. Being Successful Students.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。

four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Imagine being a famous writer or a poet.What would life be like?Sitting at desk all day long writing down inspiring words?Racking one’s brain for hours until inspiration comes? Actually,such a portrayal is very much mistaken.The truth is most writers need a day job to earn their living,and even after rising to fame,some of them still keep their day jobs for various reasons.As writing was not profitable in itself, many authors needed a day job for financial support.The famous British writer Virginia Woof ran a publishing house apart from writing.She founded it together with her husband and it was they who first discovered and published T.S.Eliot’s well-known poem The Waste Land.T.S.Eliot himself worked as a bank clerk for nearly a decade,during which time he completed and published The West Land.Then he also chose publishing as a day job and joined a publishingcompany called Faber&Faber.Some writers remained passionate about their day jobs and were reluctant to leave them even they became famous.Lewis Carroll,the writer of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,was actually a mathematician.He wrote a lot of books on mathematics under his real name,Charles Dodgson.The day job that took up nearly half of his lifetime was being a teacher at Christ Church,the largest college of the University of Oxford.He taught there for26 years until his death.To some writers,a day job was also a good source of writing material. Herman Melville,now one of the most recognized writers in Americas,had to take up any job that paid the bills.He used to work as a surveyor,a shipman,a teacher,a lecturer and a customs inspector.His most significant working experience was being a shipman on a whaler(捕鲸船)in the Pacific,from which he drew inspiration for Moby Dick(《白鲸记》).52.Which of the following is NOT a reason why authors keep day jobs?A.To support their lifeB.To collect writing materialsC.To pay the billsD.To have a high social status.53.Which of these authors worked as a teacher?A.T.S.EliotB.Virgina WoolfC.Ernest HemmingwayD.Lewis Carroll54.T.S.Eliot leave the bank_____________.A.when he was writing The Waste LandB.when he met Virinia WoolfC.after he pubished The Waste LandD.after he joined Faber&Faber55.According to the passage,what was Herman Melville’s life like?A.FamousB.LeisurelyC.PoorD.Successful(B)It is hard to calculate the number of festivals and holidays around the world because there are simply too many of them!People have all kinds of local festivals,and some international festivals are celebrated in different ways in various countries.Have you ever wondered why people need festivals?Some of the festivals come from religious beliefs,such as Christmas.It originated among Christians but has now become a public holiday for everyone around the world.However,there are other reasons why we hold festivals.They break up the flow of the year and blind us together as families and communities.Festivals and holidays are fun escape from our regular schedules.Without holidays our weeks would run together into years of boredom.What is October without children ringing our doorbells asking for candy?What is November without turkey on the table and family around it?What is February with no hear-shaped boxes decorating the kitchen counter?The answer is:boring months.We also celebrate festivals because they are reasons to reconnected with family and long lost friends.Many people do not have the freedom to meet families and close friends at any time. Festivals and holidays give us the chance.Furthermore,festivals,festivals bring us together as a community.Many people make holidays the times they reach out to other people.The bright and hearts decorating department stores in February,the blinking lights hanging on lamp posts in December—these help us feel connected to something larger than ourselves.In a world where get-toghers and barbecues do not happen as much as they used to in decades past,in a world where no one borrow sugar from his or her neighbor any longer or bakes a cake when someone moves on to the block,festivals tie us together.Therefore,everyone should make the most of their festival times.Get out and decorate your home at Christmastime.Surprise your spouse,boyfriend or girlfriend with a Valentine’s Day gift. And definitely have fun at Halloween.Even if you do not enjoy Halloween,I guarantee the children in your neighborhood will appreciate your dressing up,putting a graveyard in your front yard and passing out candy!56.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.Holidays and festivals are an important part of culture.B.People celebrate the same festivals in different ways.C.Festivals make us feel closer to each other.D.Christmas is a festival only for Christians.57.What does the underlined word”originate”(in the second paragraph)mean in this article?A.take placeB.celebratee into beingD.invite58.Why do festivals connect families and friends?A.Because people have the chance to meet each other.B.Because department stores and lamp posts are decorated.C.Because we cann’t escape from work and fixed schedules.D.Because we feel we are a community.59.What does the fifth paragraph suggest?A.People do not go to barbecues nowdays.B.We don’t have as strong as a sense of community as we used to.C.Few people give food to neighbors.D.There are fewer social activities we enjoy during festivals.Section C(4分)Directions:Read the following passage and choose the most suitable statement from A-F for each blank.There are two extra statements,which you do not need.This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant,especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing.Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them.They can seem forgetful and clumsy.They stare off into space and wander by themselves.They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history.__60__Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First,understand that some opportunities(机会)for daydreaming are better than others.
