高一英语寒假作业I.阅读理解阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和D)中,选出最佳选项.AGalaxy saw a man and a woman who communicated with the sign language at the train station when she was on the way home one evening. She noticed that the woman asked the man for the direction. He told her that he did not know. Galaxy decided to help them. She had learned the sign language when she served as a volunteer in the deaf and mute (聋哑) school. Then she showed the woman the direction and left her email address to them in case they needed her help later.She received an email from that man the next day. Kazrim was his name. Galaxy replied to his mail sincerely. They both started chatting online soon after and began seeing each other. Although they only communicated with the sign language, it never bothered her.Galaxy was fond of him gradually. Obviously, Kazrim was the same too. He presented Galaxy with a bunch of sunflowers and asked her sincerely, “Are you willing to be my girlfriend?” Galaxy was pleasantly surprised. She requested him to give her some time to persuade her parents.As she had expected, her parents were very angry after they had learned of their love story. Galaxy explained, “Kazrim is an excellent and a very optimistic person. He has a very positive attitude towards life and work. He cares for others always. He is 100% better than the normal. Moreover, the mute is still a hum an. He should have a perfect and wonderful love.”Her parents asked to see him, then. The very worried Galaxy took Kazrim home a few days later. When they were on the train, Kazrim told her, “I’m going to tell your parents I’ll be looking after you well wi th all my life!” Galaxy was deeply moved.As soon as they had entered the house, Galaxy introduced him to her parents. She said, “This is Kazrim.” Just right after her speech, an unbelievable thing happened. Kazrim threw the gift away and held her in his arms tightly.He said, “YOU CAN TALK?” It was the same question that Galaxy wanted to ask, too.The four people were shocked all of a sudden. As a matter of fact, Kazrim always believed that Galaxy was a mute and he still fell in love with her deeply.1.How did Galaxy and Kazrim get to know each other?A.They met each other by chance.B.They were introduced to each other.C.They once studied at the same university.D.They both served in a special needs school.2.How did Galaxy probably communicate with Kazrim before she took him home?A. Writing words on paper.B. Using the sign language.C. Judging from his expression.D. Speaking her native language.3.What did Galaxy expect her parents to do?A. To have a talk with Kazrim.B. To prepare for her marriage.C. To treat Kazrim as a normal man.D. To accept Kazrim as her boyfriend.4.What can we learn about the two young people from the passage?A.They fell in love at the first sight.B.They cheated each other to win love.C.They mistook each other for being mutes.D.They ignored the anger of Galaxy’s parents.BAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random (随机地) from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. I f on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.5.Which of these sentences best describes the writer's point in Para. 1?A.To some extent, intelligence is given at birth.B.Intelligence is developed by the environment.C.Some people are born clever and others born stupid.D.Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.6.It is suggested in this passage that .A.unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceB.close relations usually have similar intelligenceC.the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be inintelligenceD.people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees ofintelligence7.In Para. 1, the word “surroundings” means .A. intelligenceB. lifeC. environmentsD. housing8.The best title for this article would be .A. On IntelligenceB. What Intelligence MeansC. We are Born with IntelligenceD. Environment Plays a Part in Developing IntelligenceII.完形填空阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D )中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2018-2019学年高一英语上学期寒假作业(11)第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共10个小题;每小题2分,满分20分)When you want to go shopping, decide how much money you can spend for new clothes. Think about the kind of clothes you really need. Then look for those clothes on sale. There are labels inside all new clothes. The labels tell you how to take care of your clothes. The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water. A sweater label may tell you to wash by washing in cold water. The label on a coat may say "dry clean only." Washing may ruin(损坏)this coat. If you do as the directions say on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best. Many clothes today must be dry cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes, check to see if they will need to be dry cleaned. You will save money if you buy clothes that can be washed. You can save money if you buy clothes that are well made. Well-made clothes last longer. They look good even after they have been washed many times. Clothes that cost more money are not always better made. They do not always fit better. Sometime less expensive clothes look and fit better than more expensive clothes.1.If you want to save money you can buy clothes that _____.A.donˈt fit youB.donˈt last longC.need to be dry cleanedD.can be washed2.The label inside the clothes tell you______.A.how to keep them looking their bestB.how to save moneyC.whether they fit you or notD.where to get them dry cleaned3.We learn from the reading that cheaper clothes ______.A.are always worse madeB.must be dry cleanedC.can not be washedD.can sometimes fit you betterBI’m sure you’ve asked this when traveling, “Can I drink the tap water?” It is easy to get confused about where it’s safe to drink and where it’s not, especially if you’re planning a multi-destination trip. Some countries like India and Mexico are well known for unsafe tap water but where else is it a health risk?If you want a quick reference for where on the Earth the water is safe, we’ve got you covered with this helpful graph(图表). It was created by Just the Flight. All of the information about water safety is based on data from the CDC. The graph also shows pricing for bottled water and beer for each country as well!Have plans to travel to a place where the tap water is deemed(认定的) unsafe? Remember to skip ice in your drinks and avoid uncooked fruit and vegetables unless they’ve been peeled(削皮). Make sure to use bottled water when brushing your teeth as well.Please know that not all of the countries listed on the graph have dirty or polluted water. I know from personal experience: tap water may be safe at different elevations (海拔)and in different areas within a country shown as unsafe on the graph. Finally, further research is required. However, if you fall short of that, you’d better follow the advice on the graph to avoid an unfortable case of traveler’s illness.It’s definitely better to be safe than sorry!4.Which of the following is the best title?A.Drinking Tap Water is Good for Our HealthB.How Can We Get Tap Water?C.Where on the Earth Can You Drink Safe Tap Water?D.Tap Water is Always Safe to Drink5. What can we learn from the graph?A.It only contains the information about water safety.B.It also shows pricing for some kinds of wine.C.It was created by the CDC.D.It is of great help when traveling.6.The passage is most likely to be found in .A.a tourist magazineB.an academic essayC.a news reportD.a short-story collection第二节(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分10分)The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.But just as in face to face munication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. ___7 Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 8 If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. ___9 If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.___10 Offer advice when asked by newers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to municate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. __11 At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both fortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.A.

AOnce upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the sea to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.One day he was walking along the shore.As he looked down at the beach,he saw a human figure moving like a dancer.He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach.So he began to walk faster to catch up.As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing,but instead he was reaching down to the shore,picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.As he got closer, he called out,“Good morning! What are you doing?〞 The young man paused,looked up and replied,“Throwing starfishes(海星)in the ocean.〞“I guess I should have asked,why are you throwing starfishes in the ocean?〞“The sun is up and the tide is going out,And if I don’t throw them in,they’ll die.〞“But, young man,don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfishes allalong it.You can’t possibly make a difference!〞The young man listened politely.Then he bent down,picked another starfish and threw it into the sea,and said,“It made a difference to that one.〞There is something very special in each and every one of us.We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference.And if we can know that gift,we will gain through the strength of our vision the power to shape the future.We must each find our starfish.And if we throw our starfish wisely and well,the world will be better.56.One day, the wise man saw a young man .A.dancing along the beach with starfishesB.walking with a dancerC.picking up starfishes for saleD.trying to save as many starfishes as possible57.The underlined words“something very special〞refersto .A.the gifts fromfriendsB.the strength of making decisionsC.our ownstarfishD.the ability to make a difference58.From the last two paragraphs,we can learn thatA.the wise man realized something new and importantB.the wise man thought it was foolish of the young man to throw starfishes in the ocean.C.the young man had the ability to save only one starfishD.it is necessary for us to save starfish on the beach 59.The writer told this story to show us .

AOne Sunday, I took my daughter to the seaside. On arriving at the beach, I saw JoJo, a wealthy man in hotel business. We sat down to chat in an open air cafe while I watched my daughter enjoy herself on the swings (秋千) in front of us.Suddenly, our conversation was interrupted by a stranger, who politely asked permission to speak to me privately. People often want to tell me something about my TV show.We stood a bit away from my table. He said, “I’m James, the father of a 7-year-old girl who’s very sick. The doctors said that if she was treated in the UK, she would probably survive. But I’m poor, so can you help me, pl ease?”I stared into the man’s eyes full of tears and asked how I could help. After I went back, JoJo asked me, “What’s wrong?” I told him about it and he was very sorry for that family.All day I thought about James’s family. I even thought about making a special TV show to raise money for the sick child.On Monday morning, JoJo walked into my office. Actually, JoJo was very busy, and I never imagined he would have the time to come and see me.“Please, call the man and tell him I’ll pay all the expenses for the girl’s treatment,”JoJo said with a cheque in his hand.“I’ve been married for 35 years; I wasn’t lucky enough to have a child. Sometimes I feel lonely. I want to help this child.”I picked up the phone to call James.Now James’s daughter is well and JoJo sometimes goes to visit her. I’m so happy that there are so good people on this earth.1. According to the passage, the writer _____ .A. often go to the beach with his daughterB. is often troubled by his audienceC. was unwilling to help JamesD. met JoJo at the beach by accident2. James turned to the writer for help probably because he _____.A. guessed the writer was rich enough to help himB. wanted the writer to ask JoJo for helpC. thought the writer could help him through TVD. knew the writer was warm-hearted3. Why did JoJo make up his mind to help James? _____.A. To show his love for a child.B. To remove his loneliness by doing something.C. To show his warm heart and kindness.D. To build a relationship with Jame’s family.BSome time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth - so I decided that my approach must be wrong. I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,”he said. “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that. It’s nothing.” Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done. “ “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “ You must be crazy,” he said. Then, su ddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chairfor me?’” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But l’ll mend this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?”He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.4. We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer_____.A. was rather impoliteB. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chairC. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chairD. was warmly received5. The underlined word “approach” in the second paragraph means_____.A. plan for dealing with thingsB. decision to sell tingsC. way of doing thingsD. idea of repairing things6. The expression “the penny dropped” means the shopkeeper______.A. changed his mindB. accepted the offerC. saw the writer’s purposeD. decided to help the write r7. From the text, we can learn that the writer was_____.A. honestB. carefulC. funnyD. smartCFear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head,according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting andpumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed.Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said:“Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed.Thus, our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don’t see—and guide whether we see fear.”To further understand this relationship,the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪)to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear.“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’to each ot her to change our feelings and reduce fear,”Dr Garfinkel said.“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders,and also for those who maybe suffering from serious stress disorder.”8. What is the finding of the study? ________.A. Fear is a result of one’s relaxed heartbeat.B. One’s heart affects how he feels fear.C. Fear has something to do with one’s health.D.

Which of the following is closest in meaning to“mechanism”in Paragraph 6?A. orderB. treatmentC. machineD. system11. This study may contribute to ________.A. treating anxiety and stress betterB. explaining the cycle of fear and anxietyC. finding the key to the heart-brain communicationD. understanding different fears in our hearts and headsDThe evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on well with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is happier than it has ever been in the past.“We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seem to be about their families,” said one member of the research team.“They’re expected to be rebellious(叛逆的)and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”So it seems that these parents are much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends.“My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-year-old Daniel LaSalle.“I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. When they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.” Susan Cromer, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call talk or discussion. For example, when I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not based on real facts. A researcher explains,“Teenagers were thought to be different from others in a part of time in our social history. But to our surprise, they say they are getting on well with their parents. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled.”【高中生寒假专题】12.

But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have thepotential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation.A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential ofself-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.1.What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A.Curious.B.Doubtful.C.Indifferent.D.Optimistic.2.What is the modified Ford Fusion?A.A kind of autonomous vehicle.B.A fleet of driverless taxis.C.A road for driverless cars.D.A retirement community.3.What are examples in California and Michigan to prove?A.Driverless cars’disadvantages.ernments’right decisions.C.Benefits to the aged and the disabled.D.The regulations are forward-thinking.4.What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?A.The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.B.Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology.C.The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.D.The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.7、Since so much written language we see today comes from a glowing screen, language has begun to change through our interaction with technology. Social media and the Internet have had a rapid and great effect on the English language, and not necessarily for the better. More and more people have found themselves writing in pieces of words and using unclear acronyms(单词首字母) both in written and spoken language.How many times have you typed “LOL”in response to a humorous message? Referred to someone as your “BFF”? Exclaimed, “OMG!”during a particularly shocking event? Social media has affected the words we use in our everyday life. Abbreviations and acronyms commonly known as “text talk”have made their way into both spoken and written language. These are becoming increasingly popular as people struggle for brief expressions to meet word limits on social media like Weibo and Twitter. In addition, the speed of the Internet means language is changing faster than ever. You no longer have to be published through physical and traditional means to bring word trends to public attention.Many people believe the overuse of these new terms is a passing trend, and nobody will be using them in just a couple of decades. With thechange of language, older terms will surely disappear and fall out of style, and newer and more Internet language will take their place.But the Oxford English Dictionary thinks the contrary. In 2011, a lot of Internet terms including, “LOL,”“BPB,”“OMD,”and “BFF”were added to the dictionary, making these acronyms official parts of the English language. According to the dictionary writers, these terms aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.The words you use in everyday life are a reflection of yourself; this is especially true on the Internet with the lack of interaction in real life. With the Internet and social media rapidly getting popular, soon your words may be all you have left. Make them good ones.1.Which is the best title for the passage?A.Social Media and the English LanguageB.The Use of New Internet LanguageC.The Internet and Social MediaD.The Change of the Internet and English2.What is one reason for people’s use of acronyms?A.The decrease of physical and traditional booksB.People’s need for quick response to different messagesC.The lack of people’s interaction with technologiesD.People’s need to meet word limits on social media3.The “new terms”are considered to be part of a passing trend because_________ .A.they are not published in a traditional wayB.they are not used as formal languageC.they’ll be replaced by even newer onesD.they are not supported by dictionary writers4.The writer of the passage thinks that Internet languages ________.A.have positive influenceB.should be properly usedC.are getting more popularD.are useless for interaction完形填空8、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A, B, C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

English is used in over 90 countries as an official or semi-official language. English is the working language of many international institutes(研究所)as well as of most international research scientists. It is also the language that Indian parents and black parents wish their children to learn. It is believed that over one billion people worldwide are now learning English.One of the most important causes of the spread of English around the world is that Europeans are willing to accept it as their language. English is spreading from northern Europe to the south and is now the second language incountries such as Sweden, Norway, Netherlands and Denmark. If one visits any of them, it would seem that almost everyone there can talk in English.Recently, a report said that at the beginning of 2001, English was the most widely known foreign language with 43% of Europeans saying they spoke it. The report also said that with over 89% of the population speaking English, Sweden now has the highest percentage of English speakers. What’s more, English is the language rated as most useful to know and over 77% of Europeans who do not speak English as their first language consider it useful.完形填空11、I’m an American.

高一英语寒假作业(十)

高一英语寒假作业(十)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。

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.AAlmost no young people today know who the cartoon character Oswald the Rabbit is, but they certainly recognize his successor, Bugs Bunny. Oswald, Bugs, and hundreds of other characters were created by Walt Disney, perhaps the most famous cartoonist in history.Born in Chicago in 1901, Walt Disney always wanted to be an artist. After returning from World War I, in which he drove an ambulance, Disney worked as a commercial artist. He enjoyed drawing cartoons more than anything else, and decided to try his hand at a technology that was new at the time, moving pictures.In the 1920’s, he produced several films wh ere he made cartoon characters move as if by magic. The technique Disney used was painstaking. He made hundreds or even thousands of repeated drawings of the same character. In each drawing, the character was changed just a bit. A film was taken of the series of drawings, and when it was shown, the characters appeared to move. The process, called animation, is still used today, although computers have made the process much easier.In 1928, Disney created his most famous character, Mortimer Mouse, who we know today as Mickey. The mouse starred in a cartoon called Steamboat Willie, which was unusual because it involved the use of a sound track. Within the next few years, Disney invented many of his other characters.The list of Disney’s animation successes is long and memorable. It includes Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi, Cinderella, and Peter Pan. Perhaps his most remarkable animated film is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Created in 1937, it was an immediate success. Today, more than seventy years later, it is still one of the most popular films for children.1. What is one of the chief differences between animation today and in Walt Disney’searly years?A. More people like animated movies.B. Fewer people like animated movies.C. Computers have made the job easier.D. Computers have made the job harder.2. What makes the film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs so remarkable?A. It was a little success when created.B. It took more than a year to make it.C. It was made at a time when there were no computers.D. It has remained popular for more than seventy years.3. What does the underlined word “painstaking” (in Paragraph 3) probably mean?A. Something that hurts because it involves hard work.B. Taking a long time and involving much hard work.C. Requiring a lot of effort, like running a marathon.D. Requiring many fine tools, such as pens and pencils.BChildren and teenagers who spend lots of time in front of screens-especially TVs-are easier to get more weight as they age .according to a new study.The findings agree with research suggesting all that inactive sitting and always watching advertisements may lead to poor eating habits.Researchers used results from a long-term study of children Who took surveys every other year. Children were between ages 9 and 16 when the study started. Out of 4,300 girls in the Study. 17 percent were overweight or obese(肥胖的).Twenty-four percent of the 3 .500 boys were also above a healthy weightThe surveys included questions about their height and weight as well as how much time they spent watching TV and DVDs and playing computer and video games.From one survey to the next, each one-hour increase in children's daily TV watching was in connection with an increase of about 0.1 points on a body mass index(BMI)(体质指数), which measures weight in connection with height. That's a difference of about half a pound perextra hour of TV.“The weight of the evidence is so strong that television watching is connected with unhealthy changes in weight among youth,”says Jennifer Falbe . Who led thestudy while at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.“It's important for parents to know all the obesity-causing(引起肥胖的)screens that really should be limited in their children's lives, Falbe says. " When children watch TV. There are many food advertisements on TV that might lead them to eat a cookie or drink a soft drink. " What's mare .she says . " You can get into a hibernating(冬眠) state on the sofa. Even if children are sitting down while playing a computer game. for example. they might be a bit more active.”1. Which of the following statements can be the best title for the text?A. A new study on screens.B. TVs do harm to children.C. The less TV time ,the fatter.D. Too much screen time leads to obesity.2. How many children took part in the study?A. 4.300.B. 3.500.C. 7.800.D. 9,800.3 . According to the study, one extra hour screen time will cause children about ______ poundfatter.A.O.1B.0.5C.0.3D.0.74. According to Falbe , what should parents do to stop children getting fat?A. Limiting the time of children watching TV.B. Buying children food advertised on TV.C. Not allowing children to watch TV.D. Encouraging children to play computer games.CMy father was Chief engineer of a merchant ship, which was sunk in World War II. The book Night of the U-boats told the story.MemoriesIn September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photo to be kept with him at all times and keep him sail.Then I remember my mother lying face down, weeping. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo(鱼雷).I can remember the arrival of the telegram(电报), which in those days always brought bad news. My grand-mother opened it. It read,“Safe, Love Ted.”My most lively memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage(绷带).He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.Ten years later I read Night of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.TorpedoOne torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship’s sinking.By the time he got on deck (甲板) he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck firm. When he tried to cut it free it swung against the ship, injuring his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump—still with the photo in his pocket.Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photo.In my room is the book and the photo. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered howI would have dealt with an explosion, a sinking ship, a jump into a vast ocean anda wait for rescue? In case we forget, I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.1. The mother and children went to Swansea ________.A. to meet a friendB. to see the father offC. to take a family photoD. to enjoy the sailing of the ship2. What did the author learn about the father from the telegram?A. he was still alive.B. His knee was broken.C. His ship had been sunk.D. He had arrived in Glasgow.3. What can we know about the author’s fa ther after his ship was attacked?A. He lost his arm.B. He repaired the engines.C. He managed to take a lifeboat.D. He was the last to leave the ship.3. What is the passage mainly about?A. A group of forgotten heroes.B. A book describing a terrifying battle.C. A ship engineer’s wartime experience.D. A son’s memories of a sea rescue.DToday just as technology changed the face of industry, farms have undergone an “agricultural revolution”. On the farm of today, machines provide almost all the power.One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer. A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently. The computers help them keep more correct records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant, how many animals to buy, when to sell their products, and how much profit they can expect. Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm, students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses. There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future.Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot. Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear sheep, drive tractors, and harvest fruit. Even complex jobs will be done by robots. For example, in order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the barn, then connect them to the milking machines, watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished. In the future, this will all be done by robots. The complete robotization of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be usedbefore long.1. What does the underlined word “forward-looking” in the second paragraph mean?A. farseeingB. youngC. experiencedD. fortunate2. According to the passage, computers can NOT help farmers decide_________. .A. how much money they can earn from their productsB. whether to plant a certain kind of cropC. what animal to raiseD. when to sell their products3. Which of the following statements is true?A. Farmers in the future will depend totally on computers.B. Both computers and robots have been in use on today’s farms.C. Farmers mainly use machines on their farms at present.D. Students at agricultural colleges must take computer classes because they cando nothing without the help of computers on today’s farms.4. By writing the passage, the author intends to ______________.A. impress upon readers that computers are farmers’ best friendsB. tell readers what farmers in the future are likeC. inform readers of the technological progress in agricultureD. help readers to compare computers and robots第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)【题文】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。

AWelcome to Glass of Venice, the number one importer and retailer of authentic Murano Glass in the US and one of the top names among Murano Glass retailers worldwide.

Aggressive.BToday we think of Abraham Lincoln as a great leader. What most of us don’t know is that he was a well-known humorist and storyteller in his day.Lincoln learned to tell jokes and stories from his father. When Lincoln became a lawyer, he used his jokes and stories to gain the good will of the jury (陪审团), and more than once his opposing lawyer would complain to the judge that Lincoln’s stories were irrelevant and distracting (转移、分心) to the jury. The trouble for them was that Judge David Davis loved Lincoln’s jokes more than anyone else in the court room.As a politician, Lincoln made excellent use of his humorous stories. His long time political opponent Stephen A. Douglas complained that “Nothing else — not any of his arguments or any of his replies to my questions —disturbs me. But when he begins to tell a story, I feel that I am to be overmatched.” More than once Douglas and other political opponents of Lincoln’s saw their well presented argumentsforgotten by the audience after Lincoln followed up their speeches with a homely story.As the responsibilities of the office of President became greater and heavier, Lincoln used humor to find relief. He wanted to reduce the stresses in himself and those around him. One of Lincoln’s neighbors told that o ne day, he saw Lincoln walking past with two young shouting boys. “What’s the matter, Mr. Lincoln?” the neighbor asked. “The same thing that’s the matter with the whole world,” Lincoln answered. “I have three walnuts, and each one of them wants two of them.”One cannot truly appreciate Lincoln without understanding his humorous side. He used his jokes and stories both for the purpose of winning over his audience and relieving the pressure he experienced as President during the terrible Civil War.25. When Lincoln was a lawyer, what was his purpose of telling jokes and stories?A. He wanted to satisfy the judge’s desire for jokes.B. He wanted to distract his opposing lawyer.C.

What’s the purpose of the text?A. To educate.B. To inform.C. To persuade.D. To entertainCImagine looking at something and being able to move it just by using your brain!That is exactly what the new technology called BrainGate can do —with the help of a robotic arm,anyway.BrainGate is the idea of Professor John Donoghue and his team of researchers at the Brown Institute for Brain Science,USA. BrainGate is attached directly to the brain. First of all,gold wires are put into the part of the brain that controls movement. These are then connected to a small computer chip(芯片) . When the person thinks about different movements,this creates electrical signals,which are picked up by the chip. After this,the signals that are created by the brain are sent back to a computer,which changes the signals into movements. Finally,the computer usesthe robotic arm to carry out these movements. BrainGate can already be used to write an e-mail or play computer games,just by brain power.The technology has already cost millions of dollars to develop and when it is available for use,it will probably cost thousands of dollars per person. There are still many challenges ahead for Donoghue and his team. They are currently planning a mini wireless version,which will allow people to be connected to the computer at all times. Donoghue also dreams of using this technology to help disabled people who can't move their arms or legs. He plans to connect BrainGate directly to their own paralysed limbs(瘫痪的胳膊或腿) .This will mean that the person can control their own body again,without relying on a robotic arm.This research is attracting the military's (军方的) attention as well. However,it is easy to understand why scientists might be concerned about how thought-controlled machines could be used by the military.28. What does the underlined word “These” refer to?A. Movements.B. Thoughts.C. BrainsD. Wires.29. What is one of BrainGate's disadvantages?A. It needs improvement.B. It produces few movements.C. It is too expensive.D. It is difficult to control.30. How will Donoghue help disabled people?A. By developing a wireless version.B. By replacing their limbs with robotic ones.C. By making BrainGate smaller.D. By attaching BrainGate to their bad limbs.31. What does the military think of thought-controlled machines?A. They could lead to disasters.B. They would face fierce competition.C. They could be useful.D. They would be in mass production.DA new technology is going to ripe, one that could transform our daily lives, help to form new industries, even remove world economic powers from their present positions. Unlike the wave of industrialization that began in the West and spreadlater to the rest of the world, the new developments are taking place in research labs all over the globe—and Asians are in the forefront. Physicists are creating a new class of materials that display an amazing property unforeseen even two years ago—superconductivity (超导体技术).Used today only in specialized equipment, super conductors have the potential to radically change most of the electrical and electronic appliances found in the home, making them smaller, more powerful and efficient. They could free our cities of pollution by replacing petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles with electric cars, and cut the cost of electricity. The new materials do something that even the best of conductors such as copper and silver cannot—they do away with all electrical resistance. The significances for energy storage are great.The technology is in its early stage, still accessible to countries that decide to invest brains and money. For 75 years it had remained little more than a scientific curiosity with limited practical use because the phenomenon occurred only at extremely low temperatures. It was first observed in 1911 by a Dutch scientist named Heike Kamerlingh Onnes, who cooled mercury (水银) to temperatures below -269℃ with liquid helium (氦). Then in January last year, two IBM scientists, K. Alex Muller and J. George Bednorz, found a metal oxide ceramic (氧化陶瓷) that superconducted at -243℃. Their report went largely unnoticed unt il last December, when it was confirmed at a scientific meeting in Boston. Today Japan, India, China and other Asian countries all have their share of experts who spend their days and nights in labs, acting as midwives (助产士) to a new technology.32. As is indicated in the passage, the technology of superconductivity____________.A. has already been developedB. is still under developmentC. will be used only in specialized equipmentD. will be used in daily lives in a few years33. The new technology differs from the others in that ____________.A. it began in the East and spread later to the rest of the worldB. it began in the West and spread later to the rest of the worldC. it is being cultivated in research labs around the worldD. it is accessible to physicists who are intelligent and rich34. From the passage, we may conclude that ____________.A. Asian scientists gain the lead in the growth of the new technologyB. Dutch scientists kept reporting new findings for the last 75 yearsC. IBM scientists' report receive immediate attention all over the worldD. the West was astonished at the new technology developed by the Asians35. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. The Prospect of a New TechnologyB. Superconductivity: A New TechnologyC. A New Technology: The Key to Change the Way of Our LivesD. A New Technology: A Joint Effort of Many Countries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。

河北安平中学实验部高一年级英语学科寒假作业2019年2月10日第一部分阅读理解(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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AIs It Bad to Cross Your Legs When You Sit?Crossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don’t even notice th at they’re doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason this happens is because the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart, crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won't feel any immediate effects, but if you sit for long periods of time it's important that you take note of how long you have your legs crossed for. You shouldn't have your legs crossed for more than 15 minutes, and it's important that you get up and walk around at least once every hour.Crossing your legs can also lead to neck and back pain. Ideally, it's best for our bodies to sit with our feet planted flat, hip width apart, on the floor, but it's not easy to maintain perfect posture all day at the office. When you sit with your legs crossed your hips are in a twisted position, which can cause one of your pelvic bones to rotate. Since your pelvic bone supports your neck and spine, this can cause pressure on your lower and middle back and neck.You also might notice that when you sit with your legs crossed for long periods of time your feet and legs get tingly or have the feeling of being asleep. This isbecause when one leg sits on top of the other it causes pressure on the veins and nerves in your legs and feet. It can cause numbness and/or temporary paralysis in the legs, ankles, or feet. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.21.According to para 2, we can infer that___________A.it's no big deal to cross our legs for less than 15 minutes.B.we will feel uncomfortable at the moment we cross the legs.C.we should take a walk every hour after sitting still.D.crossing legs while sitting makes it harder to circulate our blood.22.How many health problems can be caused by crossing legs according to the text?A. 2 B3 C.4 D. 523. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?A. ① B ① C. ① D. ①② ③ ② ③ ② ③ ④ ② ③④ ⑤ ④ ⑤ ⑤ ④ ⑤BColumbus Day has been on American calendars since 1937,when President Franklin D.Roosevelt declared October 12 a federal holiday to honor the Italian explorer who“discovered”the Americas in 1492.However,the holiday has always been controversial.Many people believe that Christopher Columbus should not be given cred it for“discovering”the continent,since native Americans had already been living there for generations.Besides,the explorer,s mission was not a scientific“voyage of discovery”,but one intended to conquer the new land.Critics maintain that the Spanish armyColumbus brought on his second voyage,caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of indigenous(土著的)people.Those that survived the massacre became slaves,working in mines.Many,therefore,believe that the explorer's arrival should not be celebrated.In 1977,a delegation of Native nations at the International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations in the Americas,proposed renaming the holiday to“Indigenous People’s Day”.The proposal passed with a majority. However,convincing the rest of the country to do the same was not that easy.It took 15 years before the city of Berkeley in California adopted the name in 1992 and then 22 more years before Minneapolis,MN and Seattle,WA did the same in 2014.The following year,eight more cities including Albuquerque,NM and Portland,OR,began celebrating the second Monday of October as“Indigenous People’s Day”. The movement really started to gain momentum in 2016 when 19 cities,including Boulder,CO and Phoenix,AZ,as well as the states of Minnesota and Vermont,a11 decided to rename the day to honor Native Americans.In 2017,21 more cities,including Austin,TX and Los Angeles,CA have made the shih.With the increasingly larger number of cities moving away from Columbus Day each year,it will be interesting t o see if“Indigenous People’s Day”gets federal recognition.Meanwhile,it will continue to be the focal point of debates throughout the Americas.24.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.Indigenous People’s Day Has Got Federal Recognition after Years’Work B.Columbus Day Honoring the Italian Explorer Has Always Been Controversial C.Christopher Columbus Should Not Be Given Credit for Discovering Americas D.More Cities Have Replaced Columbus Day with Indigenous People’s Day 25.Many people don’t agree that________.A.Indigenous discovered the continentB.Columbus was a remarkable explorerC.Native Americans were abusedD.Columbus Day is a public holiday26.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A.Columbus was well received by indigenous people.B.The indigenous people hated the Columbus’arrival.C.The Spanish army rebelled against Columbus’rule.D.Few soldiers survived the attack by native Americans.27.Which of the following cities is the earliest to replace Columbus Day with Indigeno us People’s Day?A.Portland. B.Phoenix. C.Seattle. D.Los Angeles.CRecently, Google announced that its voice-activated program, Google Assistant, will be offering a new feature called “Tell Me Something Good.” Users can now give that command and r eceive an earful of positive news stories. What’s more, the New York Times has a page online called “Fixes,” which focuses on what people are doing to fight social ills. As media researcher Karen McIntyre of Virginia Commonwealth University explains, these are all parts of a news movement called constructive journalism.Constructive journalism is different from “feel-good news,” like a fireman rescuing a cat. Instead, constructive journalism offers a more complete but appealing version of the news, says McIntyre. In her opinion, besides focusing on solutions, constructive journalism includes reporting on the historical and social setting of specific news incidents, using reliable data to look at longer-term trends, and avoiding interview techniques that create drama without increasing understanding.However, newspapers thrive on eyes on the page, and editors may be less interested in constructive journalism if they aren’t convinced that it’ll attract their readers. While McIntyre acknowledges those concerns, research has shown the opposite to be true. For example, one study found participants who read an online story that focused on approaches to poverty spent more time on the page than those reading a similar story without focusing on solutions.There is muc h we don’t know yet about how this kind of journalism affectsbehavior. The research is relatively young, though at least one of McIntyre’s studies showed an interesting result: people who read inspiring news stories were more willing afterwards to sign up for generous actions related to the story, such as donating money to support a cause from the story. Therefore, she argues, there’sa hunger for this type of news.28. Why are Google Assistant and Fixes mentioned in the first paragraph?A. To say how the news movement works.B. To stress the importance of positive news.C. To show what constructive journalism is.D. To lead in the topic of the whole text.29. Constructive journalism encourages stories that__________.A. inform people of big events.B. are solution-focused.C. focus on amazing you.D. are based on interesting facts.30. How should constructive journalism stories be written?A. In a serious way.B. In a humorous way.C. In a usual way.D. In an understandable way.31. What may be the problem with constructive journalism?A. That it isn’t appealing to readers.B. That it isn’t easy to collect and edit.C. That it adds to some editors’ concerns.D. That it is unavaila ble to some readers.DCold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open air.However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather helps improve one's performance.Many people say running in the winter can be difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather.That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you runin cold weather, your heart rate and the body's dehydration (脱水) levels are lower than in warmer conditions. The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather.This information comes from sports scientists at St. Mary’s University in London. John Brewer is a professor of applied sport science at St. Mary’s.For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room they called an “environmental chamber.” The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room. The test subjects were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions. Brewer says he and his team recorded biological measurements of the runners.“We've got a group of subjects into the environmental chamber, we've changed the conditions to replicate the summer or winter and we've got them to run a 10km under both of those conditions and taken various measurements on each runner while they've been completing their 10km.”Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat is by sweating. The body loses heat through droplets of sweat. He says the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin.32.What can we know about running in winter?A.It increases pressure of the body. B.It improves the function of body. C.It makes your heart rate higher. D.It needs more water than in summer. 33.What can we know about the research according to the text?A.Researchers interviewed the subjects B.Subjects were asked to run in winter and summer.C.Subjects built the “environmental chamber”.D.Biological measurements of the runners were recorded.34.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “replicate” in Paragraph 7?A.Combine. B.Remember. C.Copy. D.Decorate.35.What’s the best title for the passage?A.Environmental Chamber B.The Way of Losing Heat C.Running in Cold Weather Improves Performance D.Biological Measurements of the Runners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。

(A)Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 am. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase. I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing,” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would wan t my mother treated.”“Oh, you’re such a good man.” She said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(临终医院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器).For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.At dawn, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”We drove in silence to the address she had given me.“How much do I owe you?” she asked.“Nothing.” I said.“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, the re are other passengers,” I answered.Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held me tightly. Our hug ended with her remark, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”21. The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to __________.A. show she was familiar with the cityB. see some places for the last timeC. let the driver earn more moneyD. reach the destination on time22. The taxi driver did not charge the old woman because he __________.A. wanted to do her a favorB. shut off the meter by mistakeC. had received her payment in advanceD. was in a hurry to take other passengers23. What can we learn from the story?A. Giving is always a pleasure.B. People should respect each other.C. An act of kindness can bring people great joy.D. People should learn to appreciate others’concern.(B )Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks’ time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活)if the rain is spread throughout the year, If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand, rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing –-very, very slowly ---as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.24. Many plants may survive in deserts when__________________.A. it is dry all the year roundB. the rain falls only in a few weeksC. there is little rain in a yearD. the rain is spread out in a year25. Sand dunes are formed when___________________.A. sand piles up graduallyB. there is plenty of rain in a yearC. the sea has dried up over the yearsD. pieces of rock get smaller26. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there is____________.A. too much sandB. more sand than beforeC. nothing except sandD. something else besides sand27 It can be learned from the text that in a desert____________.A. there is no rainfall throughout the yearB. life exists in rough conditionsC. all sand dunes are a few feet highD. rocks are worn away only by wind and heat(C)International Studies (BA)Key featuresRecognizes the “global community”(国际社会)Has close connections with practical researchMuch of the teaching is done in small discussion groupsAbout the courseThe course gives you chances to know great power politics between nation states. It will provide more space to study particular issues such as relationship among countries in the European Union, third world debt, local and international disagreement, and the work of such international bodies as the United Nations, the European Union, NATO, and the World Bank.The course puts theories into the working of the international system with close attention to particular countries. You will also have a better knowledge of methods of solving the international problems.Related (相关的) courses●BA (Hons) Community Management ● BA (Hons) Public Policy and ManagementEmployment possibilities●International organizations ● International businessEarth Science (BSc)Key featuresBased on key courses and the latest research findingsPays much attention to practical skillsOffers chances for fieldwork(实地考察)About the courseThe demand for natural resources is becoming an increasingly serious problem for the future of mankind. Graduates in Earth Science will play an important role in meeting this demand, and in knowing the meaning of using the natural resources.The course covers geography and geology. You will carry out fieldwork in the UK and possibly overseas, and a research in an area of interest to you in the final year.Related coursesBSc (Hons) Geography; BSc (Hons) GeologyEmployment possibilitiesMineral , oil, water or other related engineering industries.28. International Studies is a course in _______A. international politicsB. international businessC. international systemsD. international bodies29. After taking the course of International Studies, the students will _______.A. become practical and open-mindedB. have a greater ability to discuss theoriesC. know how to settle international problemsD. have good jobs in any international organizations30. Earth Science, as described in the second text, ______.A. is attractive because of the chances for fieldworkB. pays more attention to practical skills than theoriesC. is built on important courses and the results of recent studiesD. encourages students to play a role in using natural resources31. It can be inferred that the above two texts are written for the students who _______.A. enjoy research workB. plan to choose coursesC. study in the UKD. are interested in overseas fieldwork(D)Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish choose to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical(判断性的) thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes(过程). Otherwise, you might be controlled bythe ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of education.The word “critical” here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily seen—beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning.Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are curious about life and desire to dig deeper into it, you are a critical thinker. If you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker.Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning are processes of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today’s world: fast foods, instant coffee, and self-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure of intelligence(智力), you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banesh Hoffman, a scientist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein, Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immediately put Hoffman at ease by saying, “Please go slowly. I don’t understand things quickly.”32. Critical thinking is important to us because if we do not think critically, ______.A. it will be hard for us to think naturally and fastB. we might be controlled by other people’s ideasC. we will follow the ideas of others naturallyD. we might be fooled by other people’s ideas33. If you are a critical thinker, you will ______.A. think deeply about different ideasB. trust the reports in the newspapersC. take one view against another viewD. criticize other people for their mistakes34. In the last paragraph, “something new” suggests that ______A. the smarter you are , the faster you do thingsB. the faster you do things, the smarter you becomeC. speed can improve intelligenceD. intelligence is not decided by speed35. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Thinking and Critical ThinkingB. Understanding Critical ThinkingC. Thinking is Natural and HumanD.

If you say you “hit r ough weather”, you may not be struck by a real storm, but you do experience difficulties or problems. If you don’t know what such phrases mean, they might leave you “in a fog (雾)”!In English, you can “shoot the breeze”, or have an informal chat. But things can also be a breeze. If you take an exam and find it very easy, you’d tell your friends: “It was a breeze!” The wind can also bring information. You can “ge t wind of” a piece of news, and if someone“knows which way the wind blows”, they have a good idea about how things will work out. But don’t“throw caution (警惕) to the wind”—that means taking a great risk!Clouds sometimes bring rain, and in English they often represent problems or difficulties. If someone “sees a cloud on the horizon (地平线)”, there may be problems ahead. And if someone is “under a cloud”, then people think the person might have done something wrong. But clouds are not always bad; in fact, people say that “every cloud has a silver lining”. This means that there is a good side to every situation, no matter how bad it may seem. You may even end up “on cloud nine”, which means you are very happy! But some people have their “heads in the clouds”, not paying attention to reality.No one likes to be stuck in the rain or storm, so it’s no surprise that phrasesabout them are generally negative. When someone says “it never rains but it pours”, they are complaining (抱怨) that when things go wrong, they go very wrong. People who talk abo ut “weathering a storm” just want to get through a difficult period or situation.5. It may be dangerous when you _____.A. know which way the wind blowsB. find that something is a breezeC. get wind of a piece of newsD. throw caution to the wind6. If you look at something in a positive way, you may say _____.A. you are under a cloudB. your head is in the cloudsC. every cloud has a silver liningD. you see a cloud on the horizon7. Phrases like “it never rains but it pours” and “weathering a storm” are related tosomething _____.A. changeableB. unfavorableC. acceptableD. unbelievable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。

English is used in over 90 countries as an official or semi-official language. English is the working language of many international institutes(研究所)as well as of most international research scientists. It is also the language that Indian parents and black parents wish their children to learn. It is believed that over one billion people worldwide are now learning English. One of the most important causes of the spread of English around the world is that Europeans are willing to accept it as their language. English is spreading from northern Europe to the south and is now the second language in countries such as Sweden, Norway, Netherlands and Denmark. If one visits any of them, it would seem that almost everyone there can talk in English.Recently, a report said that at the beginning of 2001, English was the most widely known foreign language with 43% of Europeans saying they spoke it. The report also said that with over 89% of the population speaking English, Sweden now has the highest percentage of English speakers.

(10)UNIT 4 HISTORY AND TRADITIONS2022-202高一英语寒假作业

(10)UNIT 4 HISTORY AND TRADITIONS2022-202高一英语寒假作业

(10)UNIT 4 HISTORY AND TRADITIONS——2022-2023学年高一英语人教版(2019)寒假作业第一部分阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AIn the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don't know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don't know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.Serving in restaurants is often large, too large for many people. If you can't finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a "doggie bag". It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you're taking the food for yourself. Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have "Sunday dinner". This is an especially big noon meal.Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.1.Which statement is true?A.American people like sitting with people they don't know.B.Hostess always seats a small group at a large table.C.American people never sit with people they don't know.D.American people would not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.2.What do American people always do when servings are too large for them?A.They take the food home with a doggie bag for their dogs.B.They leave the food on the table and go away.C.They take the food home with a doggie bag and enjoy the food later.D.They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them.3.What can you learn about "tips" according to the passage?A.Customers often add tips to their check.B.Tips are supposed to be left on the table when customers leave.C.People don't need to pay tips.D.The price of the meal usually includes the tip.BIf you're a cycling lover, you will have to pay a lot of attention to your bicycle and maintain it well, for bicycle parts are exposed to wear and tear(磨损) over time and you have to examine the bicycle to see if there are any signs of wearing such as scratches, dents(凹陷), etc. Sometimes, a part may not work because it has exceeded its life expectancy. Sometimes, you will need to find replacement parts for it to keep up the performance of the bicycle.Different parts of a bicycle will wear at different rates so it is very important that you have a basic understanding about the role played by each part. One of the most important parts of the bicycle is the frame, You will need to choose a frame that lasts for a very long time. Of course, you will see some paint scratches after some time. When you're selecting a frame, you have to think about the material. Aluminium(锅) frames will not rust easily, but they have a higher chance to dent. Steel frames will be hard to dent, but you will need to make sure they get a good paint job so that they won't rust.Wheels also experience a lot of wear and tear and you should go for a professional seller when you want to buy wheels. There are different types of wheels that you can buy, like Zipp wheels that provide more aerodynamic efficiency(空气动力学效能). Investing in new tyres instead of going for used is a good idea because you will be able to get more use out of it. The same goes for chain as there's a higher chance of a used chain breaking. You may also experience shifting problems. However, some parts of bicycles such as pedals can be used for a long time and you can find different styles.Other parts that you can buy used are seats, handlebars and the stem. When you are buying handlebars, you have to see if there are any dents or if they have been bent out of shape. There shouldn't be any cracks in the seat post or the handlebars. There are many shops whereyou can buy parts, so you will have to check the references to see how customers respond to them before you buy anything.1.According to the passage, cycling lovers should ________.A.buy a new bicycle to keep up the performanceB.replace the bicycle parts with signs of wearingC.choose aluminium frames rather than steel onesD.learn how each part of the bicycle basically works2.Which parts may be replaced by the used ones?A. Wheels and chains.B.Tyres and seats.C.Handlebars and stems.D. Frames and pedals.3.The underlined word "references" in the last paragraph probably means "________".A. materialsB. pricesC. introductionsD. comments4.This passage is most likely to be found in ________.A.a research reportB.a popular magazineC.a tourist guide bookD.a product advertisementCBenito Juarez, a poor Indian boy, was twelve years old when he left his village home in December 1818. Benito walked forty-one miles to the city of Oaxaca, high in the mountains of Mexico. When he heard the Spanish spoken by the city people, Benito didn't know what they were saying.First, Benito became a servant for a wealthy gentleman, Serer Maza. Soon, he went to work for Antonio Salanueva, a church(教会) librarian Antonio repaired and copied the library books, keeping them in good shape. Benito became his helper and his housekeeper. Antonio loved to teach Benito soon became his student as well as his servant. With the help of Antonio, Benito learned to speak, read, and write Spanish.At that time in Mexico, many people believed that Indians were not smart enough to read or learn. Antonio knew that was not true Indians had been prevented from learning by a lack of schools. The first Danish missionaries(传教士) came to Mexico had educated the native people. In fact, churches from Spain had built the first college on the North American continent(大陆) for the Indians. As more Spanish came to Mexico, however, the Indian children were crowded out of the schools.Benito was a good and bright student, so Antonio developed a plan for him. In 1821, when Benito was fifteen, Antonio decided to enroll him in a school for boys. Antonio taught Benito what he needed to pass the entrance test for the school.Benito became a student at the college. His studies were difficult, and he was teased because he was the only Indian student there. He succeeded in spite of these challenges. Later, as the laws changed, Benito was able to attend a public college with other Indians.Benito Juarez continued his education and became a lawyer and, much later, the President of Mexico from 1861 to 1872. He led the Mexican people to victory over the French, who tried to rule Mexico, and fought for the rights of Indians. He is one of the great heroes in Mexican history.1.When Benito first arrived in the city of Oaxaca, he _______.A.lost touch with his familyB.got the language problemC.studied in a church libraryD.lived in the mountain2.According to the passage, Antonio was a _______.A. good teacherB. rich gentlemanC. strict housekeeperD. helpful villager3.In Mexico, many Indian children couldn't get an education, because _______.A.they were less smartB.there were not enough schoolsC.there were too many native peopleD.they were too poor to go to school4.What is probably the best title of the passage?A.A young student in Mexico.B.Fighting for the rights.C.A bright Mexican educator.D.Born to be a servant.DIf you want to learn a language and become fluent in it, you really need to start as early in life as possible, because the older you get, the harder it can be to get your tongue round new words and sounds. However, that is not a reason to put off learning a language later in life, because there are still many advantages to it.As you get older, it can become more and more tempting to stick to things you are most familiar with. However, giving yourself something new to do can help to keep your brain active, and the more active your brain is, the younger you will feel.We all need new challenges every now and again. It makes life interesting. Don't set your expectations too high—you aren't going to become fluent in a couple of months, for example. Instead, set yourself short term goals to finish a text-book or to practice your skills on a language speaker. The challenge will provide you with a renewed energy for life.Many people, especially when they are older, put off going overseas because they are worried about communicating with the local people. However, once you start to learn a language, you will have much more confidence to travel in countries where the language is spoken. Once you are able to buy things, ask directions and have free conversations, you will find traveling much more enjoyable.One of the best reasons for learning a language later in life is simply because you can. When younger, you probably had little spare time. Now, you probably have more time in hand because your family has grown up and you may even have retired. There are so many tools you can use to learn languages these clays (the television and Internet are two obvious ones), so you may not even have to pay.1.It is commonly believed that when a person is old, ________.A.he will stop learningB.he is slow in thoughtC.he can hardly learn anything newD.he has got no time to do anything2.The author suggests that an old person ________.A.do the things he is familiar withB.set a high goal for later lifeC.take up something newD.save his brain for future3.The reason that old men can learn a foreign language is that ________.A.they are planning to travel abroad aloneB.they have more time than the youngC.they have been left behind by familiesD.they have a better memory4.Which would be the best title for the passage?A.Learn a Language Later in LifeB.Gain Advantages in Later LifeC.Build up Confidence When OldD.Older People to Meet Challenges第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
