大连枫叶国际学校--高一入学测试模拟题(英语)Name ______________ Score_________/40Part one:Passage one: Words: 201 Readability: 4.0Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.This is an old English saying. It means that we must go to bed early in the evening and get up early in the morning.Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. For example, children need ten hours’ sleep every night. If we do not go to bed early, we cannot have enough sleep. Then we cannot think or do our work well. We will not be wise or live a comfortable life.Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. We must sleep at night when itis dark. When daylight comes, we must get up. This is the time for exercise. Walking, running, jumping, swimming, playing games are all good forms of exercise. Exercise keeps the body strong.Exercise helps blood to move around inside the body. This is very important. Blood takes food to all parts of our bodies. The brains in our heads also need blood. We think with our brains. If we keep our bodies healthy, and do exercises, we can think better!A. Write T for true F for false beside the following statements. (2.5’)____ 1.The passage tells the readers why it is important to be healthy.____ 2.Early to bed and early to rise helps us think and work well.____ 3.To keep healthy, everybody must sleep ten hours a day.____ 4.Daylight is the time for exercise.____ 5.Blood moves to all parts of our bodies.B.

(0.5’)________________________________________________________________________Passage Two: Words: 231 Readability: 3.8SealA man moved his boat across the lake. Over his head, a bird flew in the wind and the other rested in a tree. Both watched the man.They knew the man was afraid of the sea. He wanted to swim but he was afraid of drowning. The two birds watched the man return to his home. They saw he didn’t have any confidence in himself. His house was small because he was not sure he could build a larger one. He didn’t cook his food because he was afraid he would burn it. The man did not run fast because he was afraid offalling. One bird said, “How will he succeed?” “He needs to find the tale nts that he had inside himself,” the other answered. “We must choose the correct time and chance carefully,” said the first one. One day, his daughter fell into the water. The man jumped into the sea without thinking. At that time, the two birds changed him into a seal. He saved his daughter. From that day on, the man could change himself into a seal whenever he wanted. He could swim and do things that no other person could do.The two birds were happy. Just like the man, all of us have special ability. It’s just waiting to be changed from dreams into reality, if only we have the courage to try.Answer the following questions in complete sentences.

(1’)________________________________________________________________________%Correct ____________ =Mastery of Level_________(Yes/No)Part two:Passage one: Words: 242 Readability: 4.9Fiery Visitors from Outer Space1. On the next clear summer night, look up into the sky. If you are lucky, you may see a “shooting star”. They look just like stars falling down from the sky.2. But shooting stars are not stars at all. The real name for a shooting star is “meteor”. There are millions of meteors out in space. They are pieces of rock and metal. When they are in space, meteors do not glow. In fact, we can’t see them at all. But when a meteor comes close to the earth, it starts to fall toward the earth. As it passes through the air, it gets very hot. It starts to glow, and finally it begins to burn. We see the burning meteor as a shooting star.3. Sometimes meteors travel by themselves in space. But many meteors travel in groups called swarms. The swarms have orbits like planets have. They pass close to the earth every year.A famous swarm is the Perseid swarm. It passes close to the earth in summer, usually in August. Each year a few meteors from the Perseid swarm fall to the earth, so August is a good month to watch for shooting stars.4. Most meteors are small, so they burn up before they crash into the earth and are buried in the ground. Once a meteor reaches the earth, we call it a meteorite. The biggest meteorite, which weighs seventy tons, landed in Africa.A. Circle the main idea of paragraph 3.(0.5’)1. Sometimes meteors travel by themselves in space.2. Sometimes meteors travel in swarms.3. A famous swarm is the Perseid swarm.4. August is a good month to watch for shooting stars.B. Match the word on the left with the phrase on the right that fits best by writing letters. (1’)1. ______meteor a. a famous swarm of meteors2. ______swarm b. a meteor that has reached the earth3. ______Perseid c. The real name for a shooting star4. ______Meteorite d. a group of meteorsC. Answer questions in complete sentences and in your own words.1. Why is Augusta good month to watch shooting stars? 1’_______________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________2. Where is the bi ggest meteorite? 0.5’________________________________________________________________________3. There is an old saying that if you make a wish when you see a shooting star, your wish will come true. So when you see a shooting star, what wish will you make? Why? 2’_______________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________Passage Two: Words: 270 Readability: 4.2ZanOn the island of Crete, the Great Earth Mother had a child called Zan. The bees of the forest brought honey for little Zan, and the wild goats gave him milk. But children must have toys. So the five servants of the Great Earth Mother made toys for him. Zan played happily on the mountains with his toys and with the animals in the forest.When he grew up into a strong, kind man, Zan wanted to reward his animal friends. So he made a law that the goats could go wherever they wished. He made hives for the bees to protect them from the cold winds and snow. Then, Zan put the toys he had saved in a secret cave where they would be safe. He asked the bees to guard the cave.One day three bad men climbed up the mountain to find treasure. They put on armor to protect themselves from the bees, and they crept through the bushes until they reached the mouth of the cave. The bees buzzed around to attack the men, but their armor protected them and they went inside.Suddenly Zan appeared in the cave. “Stop!” He shouted. “You have come here to rob and kill. I must let you live, for this is the cave of life. But from now on, you will never be able to tell other people where my wonderful cave is.”As Zan finished speaking, the men turned into birds. One turned into a woodpecker, one became a thrush, and one became an owl. That’s why even today, when the birds speak, no one can understand them.A. Number the events below in the order that they happened.

She was born in Warsaw, Poland in 1867. Both of her parents were teachers. When Marie was only 10 years old, her mother died.Marie was a very good student. She loved science, math, and languages. She and her sister Bronya wanted to go to college, but in those days, only men could go to college in Poland. The girls had to go to France to study. There was not enough money for both sisters to go, so Marie worked as a teacher in Poland. She sent money to Bronya to pay for medical school in Paris. After Bronya became a doctor, she helped Marie.When she was 24, Marie became a science student at the Sorbonne, a university in Paris. Even with her sister’s help, she did not have much money. She lived in a small room near college. It had no lights, no water, and no heat. Sometimes Marie only had bread and tea to eat.Marie studied hard and graduated (finished school) in 1894. A year later, she married Pierre Curie. He was also a scientist. They worked hard together for many years. Their most important discovery was radium. Today, doctors use the rays from radium to treat cancer. The Curies won a Nobel Prize for their discovery. This is the highest award for a scientist. Marie Curie was the first woman to receive this award.When Marie Curie was 39, Pierre died in a road accident. But she continued their work. Curie became the first woman professor in France. In 1911, she won a second Nobel Prize. Unfortunately, years of working with radium harmed her health. She died of cancer in 1934. Her daughter Irene continued Curie’s work. She also received a Nobel Prize. Sadly, Irene also got cancer and died young. Both women gave their lives for their work.Answer the following questions in complete sentences in your own words. 5’1.

Now she was stuck in a traffic jam in central Birmingham at 5:30 p.m., and at 6:30 she was expected to hold a meeting of the tennis club.At last, the traffic was moving, and she switched quickly to the fast lane to get home. After she parked her car, she leapt out of the car and ran for the house. As she opened the door, she almost knocked down Sheba, her dog, who was standing behind it.She bent down to stroke the large Alsatian dog's head, "I have to go now” Sheba was coughing or choking as if she was trying to vomit something. She was obviously in real discomfort, and her sad eyes gazed at Joanne helplessly. Joanne examined the dog closely, and Sheba did look very sick. Joanne realized that it is necessary to take her to the vet immediately. Fortunately, the vet's surgery is not far. Joanne quickly loaded the coughing and choking dog and took her to the vet.As soon as she arrived at Dr. Sterne’s place, he brought her immediately into his office."Something is stuck in her throat," said Dr. Sterne."Doctor, I have to go back to get changed for an emergent meeting. I'll be back in ten minutes to pick her up, OK?""Sure,” said the doctor.Joanne hurriedly went back to her home. As she entered the door, the phone rang.“This is Dr.Sterne. I'm coming with the police. Wait outside for us.” said the doctor with fear in his voice. Joanne was confused and also a little frightened.When she ran into the street, two policemen were getting out of their car. After briefly checking that she was the owner of the house, they ran into the house, without explaining anything. Joanne was completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived."Where's Sheba? Is she OK?" shouted Joanne."She's fine, Joanne. I extracted the thing which was choking her."Why are the police in my house?"。

枫叶国际学校--高一入学测试模拟题(英语)Name ______________ Score_________/40Part one:Passage one: Words: 201 Readability: 4.0Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.This is an old English saying. It means that we must go to bed early in the evening and get up early in the morning.Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. For example, children need ten ho urs’ sleep every night. If we do not go to bed early, we cannot have enough sleep. Then we cannot think or do our work well. We will not be wise or live a comfortable life.Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. We must sleep at night when itis dark. When daylight comes, we must get up. This is the time for exercise. Walking, running, jumping, swimming, playing games are all good forms of exercise. Exercise keeps the body strong.Exercise helps blood to move around inside the body. This is very important. Blood takes food to all parts of our bodies. The brains in our heads also need blood. We think with our brains. If we keep our bodies healthy, and do exercises, we can think better!A. Write T for true F for false beside the following statements. (2.5’)____ 1.The passage tells the readers why it is important to be healthy.____ 2.Early to bed and early to rise helps us think and work well.____ 3.To keep healthy, everybody must sleep ten hours a day.____ 4.Daylight is the time for exercise.____ 5.Blood moves to all parts of our bodies.B.

Over his head, a bird flew in the wind and the other rested in a tree. Both watched the man.They knew the man was afraid of the sea. He wanted to swim but he was afraid of drowning. The two birds watched the man return to his home. They saw he didn’t have any confidence in himself. His hou se was small because he was not sure he could build a larger one. He didn’t cook his food because he was afraid he would burn it. The man did not run fast because he was afraid of falling. One bird said, “How will he succeed?” “He needs to find the talents that he had inside himself,” the other answered. “We must choose the correct time and chance carefully,” said the first one. One day, his daughter fell into the water. The man jumped into the sea without thinking. At that time, the two birds changed him into a seal. He saved his daughter. From that day on, the man could change himself into a seal whenever he wanted. He could swim and do things that no other person could do.The two birds were happy. Just like the man, all of us have special ability. It’s j ust waiting to be changed from dreams into reality, if only we have the courage to try.Answer the following questions in complete sentences.

On the next clear summer night, look up into the sky. If you are lucky, you may see a “shooting star”. They look just like stars falling down from the sky.2. But shooting stars are not stars at all. The real name for a shooting star is “meteor”. There are millions of meteors out in space. They are pieces of rock and metal. When they are in space, meteors do not glow. In fact, we can’t see them at all. But when a meteor comes close to the earth, it starts to fall toward the earth. As it passes through the air, it gets very hot. It starts to glow, and finally it begins to burn. We see the burning meteor as a shooting star.3. Sometimes meteors travel by themselves in space. But many meteors travel in groups called swarms. The swarms have orbits like planets have. They pass close to the earth every year.A famous swarm is the Perseid swarm. It passes close to the earth in summer, usually in August. Each year a few meteors from the Perseid swarm fall to the earth, so August is a good month to watch for shooting stars.4. Most meteors are small, so they burn up before they crash into the earth and are buried in the ground. Once a meteor reaches the earth, we call it a meteorite. The biggest meteorite, which weighs seventy tons, landed in Africa.A. Circle the main idea of paragraph 3.(0.5’)1. Sometimes meteors travel by themselves in space.2.

The bees of the forest brought honey for little Zan, and the wild goats gave him milk. But children must have toys. So the five servants of the Great Earth Mother made toys for him. Zan played happily on the mountains with his toys and with the animals in the forest.When he grew up into a strong, kind man, Zan wanted to reward his animal friends. So he made a law that the goats could go wherever they wished. He made hives for the bees to protect them from the cold winds and snow. Then, Zan put the toys he had saved in a secret cave where they would be safe. He asked the bees to guard the cave.One day three bad men climbed up the mountain to find treasure. They put on armor to protect themselves from the bees, and they crept through the bushes until they reached the mouth of the cave. The bees buzzed around to attack the men, but their armor protected them and they went inside.Suddenly Zan appeared in the cave. “Stop!”He shouted. “You have come here to rob and kill. I must let you live, for this is the cave of life. But from now on, you will never be able to tell other people where my wonderful cave is.”As Zan finished speaking, the men turned into birds. One turned into a woodpecker, one became a thrush, and one became an owl. That’s why even today, when the birds speak, no one can understand them.A.

She was born in Warsaw, Poland in 1867. Both of her parents were teachers. When Marie was only 10 years old, her mother died.Marie was a very good student. She loved science, math, and languages. She and her sister Bronya wanted to go to college, but in those days, only men could go to college in Poland. The girls had to go to France to study. There was not enough money for both sisters to go, so Marie worked as a teacher in Poland. She sent money to Bronya to pay for medical school in Paris. After Bronya became a doctor, she helped Marie.When she was 24, Marie became a science student at the Sorbonne, a university in Paris. Even with her sister’s help, she did not have much money. She lived in a s mall room near college. It had no lights, no water, and no heat. Sometimes Marie only had bread and tea to eat.Marie studied hard and graduated (finished school) in 1894. A year later, she married Pierre Curie. He was also a scientist. They worked hard together for many years. Their most important discovery was radium. Today, doctors use the rays from radium to treat cancer. The Curies won a Nobel Prize for their discovery. This is the highest award for a scientist. Marie Curie was the first woman to receive this award.When Marie Curie was 39, Pierre died in a road accident. But she continued their work. Curie became the first woman professor in France. In 1911, she won a second Nobel Prize. Unfortunately, years of working with radium harmed her health. She died of cancer in 1934. Herdaughter Irene continued Curie’s work.

Now she was stuck in a traffic jam in central Birmingham at 5:30 p.m., and at 6:30 she was expected to hold a meeting of the tennis club.At last, the traffic was moving, and she switched quickly to the fast lane to get home. After she parked her car, she leapt out of the car and ran for the house. As she opened the door, she almost knocked down Sheba, her dog, who was standing behind it.She bent down to stroke the large Alsatian dog's head, "I have to go now” Sheba was coughing or choking as if she was trying to vomit something. She was obviously in real discomfort, and her sad eyes gazed at Joanne helplessly. Joanne examined the dog closely, and Sheba did look very sick. Joanne realized that it is necessary to take her to the vet immediately. Fortunately, the vet's surgery is not far. Joanne quickly loaded the coughing and choking dog and took her to the vet.As soon as she arrived at Dr. Sterne’s place, he brought her immediately into his office."Something is stuck in her throat," said Dr. Sterne."Doctor, I have to go back to get changed for an emergent meeting. I'll be back in ten minutes to pick her up, OK?""Sure,” said the doctor.Joanne hurriedly went back to her home. As she entered the door, the phone rang.“This is Dr. Sterne. I'm coming with the police. Wait outside for us.” said the doctor with fear in his voice. Joanne was confused and also a little frightened.When she ran into the street, two policemen were getting out of their car. After briefly checking that she was the owner of the house, they ran into the house, without explaining anything. Joanne was completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived."Where's Sheba? Is she OK?" shouted Joanne."She's fine, Joanne. I extracted the thing which was choking her."Why are the police in my house?"Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white-faced man who could hardly walk and with blood all over him."How did he get in there?”"I think he must be a burglar," said the doctor.

The drum has also been used for years as an important tool for communication. The human voice is very good for communication, but it cannot be heard very far. As early humans began to live in groups, runners were sent from village to village with important messages, but that took a lot of time. It was discovered that beating on hollow logs could be heard for greater distances, and so a new form of communication called “talking drums” was born.In many early communities, a large drum was set in the middle of the village to help send messages to nearby tribes. The drums could be hit with hands and sticks. Some of the larger drums could be heard up to sixteen miles away!A group in West Africa made an amazing talking drum system. Their drums were made of round pieces of wood that were four to five feet long. A skin (often an elephant ear) was stretched over one end of the wood and was held in place by a rope. The skin was tightened or loosened to make higher and lower sounds. They had learned to use the drums so well that they could actually copy the language that they spoke! The drums sounded like a person speaking in a voice loud enough to be heard far away.Most systems of drum communication used a series of beats that meant something. The messages usually told of danger, death, war, or other news of great importance. The message could be sent very far by a relay system. That is, one village would send a message and a nearby village would hear it. They would then repeat the message on their drums, sending it to their neighbors. Some relay systems worked so well that they could send a message about 200 miles very quickly.Although “talking drums” became a good system of communicating over distances, it had one very big problem. Their enemies could understand the drum messages, so they would know what was being said or planned. Communication by drums certainly wasn’t perfect!A. True or False. Decide the following statements are true (T) or false (F). (2’)_______1. The main idea of the passage is that drums can be heard over great distances._______2. Drums are only used as a musical instrument._______3. People in West Africa tightened the skin over the drum to make a lower sound._______4. Drums made by people in West Africa could speak.B.

They were very friendly with all their faithful customers who dined at their café because they enjoyed being friendly and helpful.One day an unfamiliar elderly couple came into the thriving restaurant. Although the old man ordered a hamburger and some French fries, his grey-hai red wife didn’t order anything to eat. George prepared the food and served it to the man.The old fellow and his wife sat at a dining table and the man cut the hamburger in half. Then he divided the French fries into two equal parts. He put half of the hamburger and half of the French fries in front of his wife. Then he began to eat his half of the hamburger and fries. His wife relaxed and watched while he ate.Ellen observed the old couple. She thought that perhaps they couldn’t afford another hamburger. She felt sorry for them, so she went over to their table and offered them another meal free of charge.The old man was too busy eating to reply, but his wife said, “Oh, No!Don’t worry about us. We like to share. We share everything.”The old fello w nodded and said, “Everything,” before he stuffed more French fries into his mouth.Ellen smiled at them and returned to the counter. She took some orders from other waiting customers and then watched the old couple again. She noticed that the woman was still not eating. Her half of the cooling burger and fries remained sitting on the plate on the table in front of her. She reasoned that perhaps the man’s wife intended to give her share to her husband if he was still hungry after eating his share. Ellen frowned in confusion. She hastily returned to their table.The old woman saw her and commenced telling her not to worry because they had always shared everything.“I know,” responded Ellen.“You’ve already told me that. I was just wondering why you are not eating your half.”“Oh,” said the woman.“I’m just waiting for my turn with the false teeth.” (6.0)Answer the following questions in complete sentences in your own words. 5’1.

Their leader was a wise old monkey who knew about the ogre. So he warned the others, “If he catches you, he will eat you. Don’t drink any water from the lake until I tell you it is safe.”The monkeys listened to their leader. They grew very thirsty, but they stood back from the lake. Then the wise old monkey went near the lake and waited to see if the ogre would appear.When the ogre saw the old monkey, he stuck his head out of the water and said, “Come down to the water and drink.”“No,” said the monkey. “If I come to the water, you will eat me.”“Yes,” said the ogre. “But there is no other water in the forest. Soon you and your friends will have to come here to drink. Then I will eat you all.”The old monkey thought and thought. Then he saw some long hollow reeds growing near the lake. He picked the reeds and gave them to the other monkeys. Each monkey put one end of the reed in its mouth and the other end in the water. Then the monkeys sucked the water through the reeds and gave them to the other monkeys. So they stayed away from the lake and still drank their fill.

One day not too long ago, people found something wonderful there. They found a perfect mummy of a 12 year old girl. They called her Juanita.The girl was from the Inca tribe. The Incas ruled part of South America long ago. They were there long before the Spaniards arrived to take over the land.Juanita’s body was frozen into the ice. Because of this she is very well preserved. Scientists say we will be able to learn a lot from her. They can learn about the health of the ancient Inca people by studying her organs.Johan Reinhard is from America. He found Juanita. He and his friends worked hard to get the mummy down the icy slope. They found two more mummies, too.They also found some very old statues. They were made of gold, silver and shell. Clothing and feather headdresses on the statues were in perfect shape. When he saw them, he said, “Holy smokes! The statues are just sticking out of the ground.”The three mummies may have been sacrificed by the Inca. This means they were killed in a religious ceremony. The Incas believed that mountain gods caused natural disasters. They thought the gods would stop disasters if they sacrificed people. People who were chosen to be killed saw it as a great honor.A force of nature uncovered the treasures. A volcano blew up. It caused the ice to melt. This exposed the statues and the mummies. Scientists think that it was a lucky accident. The Incas might have said the gods finally decided to show the world more of the amazingInca culture.Answer the following questions in complete sentences5’1.

Without even thinking, you go the sink and wash your hands with soap and water. Then you put your clothes in the washing machine. Magically, everything is clean again. What is the magic of soap? How does it take away dirt that water by itself won’t remove?When soap is added to water, it works in two ways to get rid of dirt and grease. First, water by itself does not mix well with dirt. It floats on top or around. But water by itself won’t wash most dirt away. Water needs to be mixed with soap. The soap then makes the water “wetter”. Although it sounds strange, wetter water is able to flow around and under dirt particles and float them away.Second, soap makes the dirt stick to water because soap has a special shape. Each particle of soap is a long, thin rod with a head end and a tail end. When soap is mixed with water, the head end of the soap particle attaches itself to a water molecule. Then the tail end of the soap buries itself in a dirt or grease particle. Now the dirt particle and the water particle are joined together. In a single tub of water, many soap particles may stick to one dirt particle, so the dirt becomes surrounded by soap and water. The dirt then floats away in the water, and your hands or clothes are clean.Soap works well in most water no matter if it is hot or cold. When the dirt or grease is too strong, detergents take over. They do the same job as soap, but they can work in water that makes soap lose its cleaning power. Soap and detergent are two of the most important products in the world. If there was no soap, how could you ever wash up before eating dinner?Answer the following questions in complete sentences1. What must we use if soap does not work well? ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________2. How does soap actually remove the dirt from your hands or clothes? ________________________________________________________________________3. What is another word for particle?a. detergentb. productc. small pieced. soap4. Complete the chart to show the correct forms of the adverbs. Remember the rules about adding endings.5.

Some people want to use the land, so they cut down some of the rain forest. They want the trees for wood to build houses. They want the land to grow grass for cattle. They want to build roads to areas for mining gold and other minerals. As a result, the forest and its plants are disappearing. Because native people live in and need the forest for survival, they too are disappearing.Some scientists and anthropologists are pointing out the importance of the plants and knowledge of the tribes. They say that it is time to put an economic value on the rain forest. It will show the peoples of the rain forests that the world values them, their knowledge of the plants, and the plants themselves. This might be the only way to save these people, the plants, and the forests.Some companies and organizations are also beginning to change. They are signing agreements with the native people. For example, native people collect plants in the rain forest for the national cancer institute. The institute is developing drugs from these plants. It now agrees to share a percentage of the money it receives from these drugs with the native people. A drug company in California also has promised to share profits with native collectors of drugs developed from rain forest plants. Some other groups are helping tribes sell rain forest products such as herbs and oils. These efforts are still unusual, but they are a start.What is the alternative? The alternative is that the plants will disappear, and the native people will disappear with them. The knowledge that might save you or me from cancer, heart disease, or AIDS might also disappear.The people who live in the rain forest countries are beginning to see that it is profitable and important to save these areas. The Jivaro, a tribe in the rain forest of northern Peru, recently told some scientists, “You are like babies in the rain forest, but we will teach you.”The Jivaro tribe knows the secrets and value of the plants and rain forest. Let’s hope that we and the scientists are smart enough to learn from them.A.Circle the best answer.

People say the Great Spirit Baiame made the world and all the animals in it. He made the sky, the sun, the moon, and the stars. Baiame walked all over the earth and caused the rain to fall and the plants to grow. When he saw that the earth was green and beautiful and that the people were happy, he was content and knew that he could rest. So he made himself a home in the sky, which he called Pullima, where he could sit and look down at the prosperous earth.Everything seemed to be perfect. But soon the flowers on the earth grew dissatisfied, for they wanted to be with Baiame. So one night they softly climbed up the sky and settled in Pullima, which became even brighter and more beautiful. When the people on the earthwoke in the morning, they looked for the flowers, but they were nowhere to be found. The people were so unhappy that they began to cry. The bees could not make honey, so they starved, and the butterflies had nowhere to rest.Finally, some old men of the earth decided to try to find Baiame and ask for his help. They climbed for days up the side of a high mountain until they could see Baiame’s home in the sky. And there were the flowers, as beautiful as ever. Baiame looked down and invited the old men to his home to rest and talk to them. The men pleaded with him to give back the flowers so the earth could be beautiful again. When Baiame heard the men, he was sad. He didn’t want the earth people to be unhappy, but he didn’t want his home to be without flowers.Finally, Baiame told the men to pick as many flowers as they could carry. “These flowers”, said Baiame, “will roo t and grow on the earth. After the hottest days of summer have gone, the flowers will wither. Then they will be with me. But when spring comes again, I promise they will return.” The men did as Baiame told them, and found that he had told the truth. The beautiful flowers grew on the earth. Every year, at the end of summer, the flowers withered and died, but in the spring they came back again.A.Fill in the blanks with the correct word or phrase.

大连枫叶国际学校--高一入学测试模拟题(英语)Name______________ Score_________/40 Part one:Passage one: Words: 201 Readability: 4.0Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.This is an old English saying. It means that we must go to bed early in the evening and get up early in the morning.Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. For example, children need ten hours’ sleep every night. If we do not go to bed early, we cannot have enough sleep. Then we cannot think or do our work well. We will not be wise or live a comfortable life.Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. We must sleep at night when itis dark. When daylight comes, we must get up. This is the time for exercise. Walking, running, jumping, swimming, playing games are all good forms of exercise. Exercise keeps the body strong.Exercise helps blood to move around inside the body. This is very important. Blood takes food to all parts of our bodies. The brains in our heads also need blood.

Over his head, a bird flew in the wind and the other rested in a tree. Both watched the man.They knew the man was afraid of the sea. He wanted to swim but he was afraid of drowning. The two birds watched the man return to his home. They saw he didn’t have any confidence in himself. His house was small because he was not sure he could build a larger one. He didn’t cook his f ood because he was afraid he would burn it. The man did not run fast because he was afraid of falling. One bird said, “How will he succeed?” “He needs to find the talents that he had inside himself,” the other answered. “We must choose the correct time and chance carefully,” said the first one. One day, his daughter fell into the water. The man jumped into the sea without thinking. At that time, the two birds changed him into a seal. He saved his daughter. From that day on, the man could change himself into a seal whenever he wanted. He could swim and do things that no other person could do.The two birds were happy. Just like the man, all of us have special ability. It’s just waiting to be changed from dreams into reality, if only we have the courage to try.Answer the following questions in complete sentences.

On the next clear summer night, look up into the sky. If you are lucky, you may see a “shooting star”. They look just like stars falli ng down from the sky.2. But shooting stars are not stars at all. The real name for a shooting star is “meteor”. There are millions of meteors out in space. They are pieces of rock and metal. When they are in space, meteors do not glow. In fact, we can’t see them at all. But when a meteor comes close to the earth, it starts to fall toward the earth. As it passes through the air, it gets very hot. It starts to glow, and finally it begins to burn. We see the burning meteor as a shooting star.3. Sometimes meteors travel by themselves in space. But many meteors travel in groups called swarms. The swarms have orbits like planets have. They pass close to the earth every year. A famous swarm is the Perseid swarm. It passes close to the earth in summer, usually in August. Each year a few meteors from the Perseid swarm fall to the earth, so August is a good month to watch for shooting stars.4. Most meteors are small, so they burn up before they crash into the earth and are buried in the ground. Once a meteor reaches the earth, we call it a meteorite. The biggest meteorite, which weighs seventy tons, landed in Africa.A. Circle the main idea of paragraph 3.(0.5’)1. Sometimes meteors travel by themselves in space.2. Sometimes meteors travel in swarms.3. A famous swarm is the Perseid swarm.4. August is a good month to watch for shooting stars.B.

The bees of the forest brought honey for little Zan, and the wild goats gave him milk. But children must have toys. So the five servants of the Great Earth Mother made toys for him. Zan played happily on the mountains with his toys and with the animals in the forest.When he grew up into a strong, kind man, Zan wanted to reward his animal friends. So he made a law that the goats could go wherever they wished. He made hives for the bees to protect them from the cold winds and snow. Then, Zan put the toys he had saved in a secret cave where they would be safe. He asked the bees to guard the cave.One day three bad men climbed up the mountain to find treasure. They put on armor to protect themselves from the bees, and they crept through the bushes until they reached the mouth of the cave. The bees buzzed around to attack the men, but their armor protected them and they went inside.Suddenly Zan appeared in the cave. “Stop!”He shouted. “You have come here to rob and kill. I must let you live, for this is the cave of life. But from now on, you will never be able to tell other people where my wonderful cave is.”As Zan finished speaking, the men turned into birds. One turned into a woodpecker, one became a thrush, and one became an owl. That’s why even today, when the birds speak, no one can understand them.A.

She was born in Warsaw, Poland in 1867. Both of her parents were teachers. When Marie was only 10 years old, her mother died.Marie was a very good student. She loved science, math, and languages. She and her sister Bronya wanted to go to college, but in those days, only men could go to college in Poland. The girls had to go to France to study. There was not enough moneyfor both sisters to go, so Marie worked as a teacher in Poland. She sent money to Bronya to pay for medical school in Paris. After Bronya became a doctor, she helped Marie.When she was 24, Marie became a science student at the Sorbonne, a university in Paris. Even with her sister’s help, she did not have much money. She lived in a small room near college. It had no lights, no water, and no heat. Sometimes Marie only had bread and tea to eat.Marie studied hard and graduated (finished school) in 1894. A year later, she married Pierre Curie. He was also a scientist. They worked hard together for many years. Their most important discovery was radium. Today, doctors use the rays from radium to treat cancer. The Curies won a Nobel Prize for their discovery. This is the highest award for a scientist. Marie Curie was the first woman to receive this award.When Marie Curie was 39, Pierre died in a road accident. But she continued their work. Curie became the first woman professor in France. In 1911, she won a second Nobel Prize. Unfortunately, years of working with radium harmed her health. She died of cancer in 1934. Her daughter Irene continued Curie’s work.

As she opened the door, she almost knocked down Sheba, her dog, who was standing behind it.She bent down to stroke the lar ge Alsatian dog's head, "I have to go now” Sheba was coughing or choking as if she was trying to vomit something.

Then the doctor arrived."Where's Sheba? Is she OK?" shouted Joanne."She's fine, Joanne. I extracted the thing which was choking her."Why are the police in my house?"Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white-faced man who could hardly walk and with blood all over him."How did he get in there?”"I think he must be a burglar," said the doctor.

The drum has also been used for years as an important tool for communication. The human voice is very good for communication, but it cannot be heard very far. As early humans began to live in groups, runners were sent from village to village with important messages, but that took a lot of time. It was discovered that beating on hollow logs could be heard for greater distances, and so a new form of communication called “talking drums” was born.In many early communities, a large drum was set in the middle of the village to help send messages to nearby tribes. The drums could be hit with hands and sticks. Some of the larger drums could be heard up to sixteen miles away!A group in West Africa made an amazing talking drum system. Their drums were made of round pieces of wood that were four to five feet long. A skin (often an elephant ear)was stretched over one end of the wood and was held in place by a rope. The skin was tightened or loosened to make higher and lower sounds. They had learned to use the drums so well that they could actually copy the language that they spoke! The drums sounded like a person speaking in a voice loud enough to be heard far away.Most systems of drum communication used a series of beats that meant something. The messages usually told of danger, death, war, or other news of great importance. The message could be sent very far by a relay system. That is, one village would send a message and a nearby village would hear it. They would then repeat the message on their drums, sending it to their neighbors. Some relay systems worked so well that they could send a message about 200 miles very quickly.Although “talking drums” became a good system of communicating over distances, it had one very big problem. Their enemies could understand the drum messages, so they would know what was being said or planned. Communication by drums certainly wasn’t perfect!A. True or False. Decide the following statements are true (T) or false (F). (2’)_______1. The main idea of the passage is that drums can be heard over great distances._______2. Drums are only used as a musical instrument._______3. People in West Africa tightened the skin over the drum to make a lower sound._______4. Drums made by people in West Africa could speak.B. Answer the following questions in complete sentences and in your own words. (3’)1. What is a drum “relay system”?

They were very friendly with all their faithful customers who dined at their café because they enjoyed being friendly and helpful.One day an unfamiliar elderly couple came into the thriving restaurant. Although the old man ordered a hamburger and some French fries, his grey-haired wife didn’t order anything to eat.George prepared the food and served it to the man.The old fellow and his wife sat at a dining table and the man cut the hamburger in half. Then he divided the French fries into two equal parts. He put half of the hamburger and half of the French fries in front of his wife. Then he began to eat his half of the hamburger and fries. His wife relaxed and watched while he ate.Ellen observed the old couple. She thought that perhaps they couldn’t afford another hamburger. She felt sorry for them, so she went over to their table and offered them another meal free of charge.The old man was too busy eating to reply, but his wife said, “Oh, No!Don’t worry about us. We like to share. We share everything.”The old fellow nodded and said, “Everything,” before he stuffed more French fries into his mouth.Ellen smiled at them and returned to the counter. She took some orders from other waiting customers and then watched the old couple again. She noticed that the woman was still not eating. Her half of the cooling burger and fries remained sitting on the plate on the table in front of her. She reasoned that perhaps the man’s wife intended to give her share to her husband if he was still hungry after eating his share. Ellen frowned in confusion. She hastily returned to their table.The old woman saw her and commenced telling her not to worry because they had always shared everything.“I know,” responded Ellen. “You’ve already told me that. I was just wondering why you are not eating your half.”“Oh,” said the woman. “I’m just waiting for my turn with the false teeth.” (6.0)Answer the following questions in complete sentences in your own words. 5’1.

Readability: 7.5DrumsWhen we think of a drum we usually think of a musical instrument. The drum has also been used for years as an important tool for communication. The human voice is very good for communication, but it cannot be heard very far. As early humans began to live in groups, runners were sent from village to village with important messages, but that took a lot of time. It was discovered that beating on hollow logs could be heard for greater distances, and so a new form of communication called “talking drums” was born.In many early communities, a large drum was set in the middle of the village to help send messages to nearby tribes. The drums could be hit with hands and sticks. Some of the larger drums could be heard up to sixteen miles away!A group in West Africa made an amazing talking drum system. Their drums were made of round pieces of wood that were four to five feet long. A skin (often an elephant ear) was stretched over one end of the wood and was held in place by a rope. The skin was tightened or loosened to make higher and lower sounds. They had learned to use the drums so well that they could actually copy the language that they spoke! The drums sounded like a person speaking in a voice loud enough to be heard far away.Most systems of drum communication used a series of beats that meant something. The messages usually told of danger, death, war, or other news of great importance. The message could be sent very far by a relay system. That is, one village would send a message and a nearby village would hear it. They would then repeat the message on their drums, sending it to their neighbors. Some relay systems worked so well that they could send a message about 200 miles very quickly. Although “talking drums” became a good system of communicating over distances, it had one very big problem. Their enemies could understand the drum messages, so they would know what was being said or planned. Communication by drums certainly wasn’t perfect!A. True or False. Decide the following statements are true (T) or false (F). (2’)_______1. The main idea of the passage is that drums can be heard over great distances._______2. Drums are only used as a musical instrument._______3. People in West Africa tightened the skin over the drum to make a lower sound._______4. Drums made by people in West Africa could speak.B.

They were very friendly with all their faithful customers who dined at their café because they enjoyed being friendly and helpful.One day an unfamiliar elderly couple came into the thriving restaurant.Although the old man ordered a hamburger and some French fries, his grey-haired wife didn’t order anything to eat.George prepared the food and served it to the man.The old fellow and his wife sat at a dining table and the man cut the hamburger in half.Then he divided the French fries into two equal parts.He put half of the hamburger and half of the French fries infront of his wife.Then he began to eat his half of the hamburger and fries.His wife relaxed and watched while he ate.Ellen observed the old couple.She thought that perhaps they couldn’t afford another hamburger. She felt sorry for them, so she went over to their table and offered them another meal free of charge.The old man was too busy eating to reply, but his wife said, “Oh, No!Don’t worry about us.We like to share.We share everything.”The old fellow nodded and said, “Everything,” before he stuffed more French fries into his mouth.Ellen smiled at them and returned to the counter.She took some orders from other waiting customers and then watched the old couple again.She noticed that the woman was still not eating.Her half of the cooling burger and fries remained sitting on the plate on the table in front of her.She reasoned that perhaps the man’s wife intended to give her share to her husband if he was still hungry after eating his share.Ellen frowned in confusion.She hastily returned to their table.The old woman saw her and commenced telling her not to worry because they had always shared everything.“I know,” responded Ellen.“You’ve already told me that.I was just wondering why you are not eating your half.”“Oh,” said the woman.“I’m just waiting for my turn with the false teeth.” (6.0) Answer the following questions in complete sentences in your own words. 5’1.

Maple Leaf International SchoolsAdmissions TestJanuary2020Version APart1:Reading ComprehensionRead the following passages and complete the multiple-choice questions.Passage1:SpidersMany people consider spiders to be repulsive creatures that are potentially destructive.However,you may be amazed to learn that civilization as we know it probably would not be able to exist were it not for spiders.People undoubtedly would die of starvation because insects such as locusts and grasshoppers would destroy grain crops were it not for spiders who eat them.There is an abundance of spiders on the earth;for example,an acre of ground may be inhabited by thousands of spiders. Contrary to what many people believe,a spider is not an insect.A spider has eight legs,while an insect has six legs.In addition,there are only two main divisions in a spider---the head and the thorax,while an insect has a head,a thorax,and an abdomen.A spider usually has eight simple eyes and has glands to produce strands of silk which come out of openings called spinnerets.You also may be surprised to learn that spider silk has been used by man in such devices as astronomical telescopes,guns and engineers’levels.The fibers are excellent for sighting marks.A spider silk is extremely strong and can be either dry or sticky.There are four general types of webs which spiders can make.There is the irregular mesh web,the orb web,the funnel web,and the sheet web.A web also can be a combination of several different types.Perhaps the loveliest spider web is the orb web.Engineers believe that the orb web illustrate the fact that the suspension bridge was invented by the spider.Spiders often can make a web quite quickly;for example,it is possible for a spider to weave a large web in only one hour.Circle the best answer.1.What are the main parts of a spider?a)Spiders have eight legs.b)There are two main parts–the head and the thorax.c)There are three main parts–the head,thorax and abdomen.d)Spiders have six legs.2.How are spiders helpful to people?a)Spiders are potentially destructive.b)Spiders eat insects.c)Spiders destroy grain crops.d)There are thousands of spiders everywhere.3.How many legs do spiders have?a)Spiders have six legs.b)A spider has eight simple eyes.c)A spider produces silk.d)Spiders have eight legs.4.How many kinds of webs does a spider make?a)Six.b)Eight.c)Four.d)Two.5.Fill in the blank with the proper word(s).A spider can make a web___________.a)in one hour.b)quickly.c)slowly.d)is only small.Answer the following questions in complete sentences.6.Does this story make you think about anything or anyone in your own life?How or

ConcertThe most popular teen band was coming to town,and both Alex and his twin sister Amanda really wanted to go to the concert.They had never been to a concert because their parents’rule was that you must be in ninth grade to go to a concert.Alex and Amanda were only in eighth grade.“Please,Mom and Dad.We will do anything if you let us go,”they begged their parents.Their two older sisters had both been to concerts before,and always talked about how great it is to experience live music.“Is there any possibility we can go?The production is supposed to be amazing with lots of special effects.It is going to be the band’s best show yet,and they aren’t going to tour again for three years,”explained Alex with excitement.“All of our friends are going,”added Amanda.Their mom and dad said they would think about it,and asked Alex and Amanda not to bring it up again until they had time to consider it.Alex and Amanda agreed,and said they would not pester their parents.It was very difficult for them though.After about a week’s time,their parents brought the subject of the concert up at dinner.They said they would reconsider their rule about having to be in the ninth grade with a couple of conditions.Alex and Amanda were thrilled.They both jumped up from the table to hug their mom and dad.“You are the best!”they screamed as they hugged their parents.“Slow down,”said their dad.“You haven’t even heard the conditions yet.”“First,work very hard and get an A on your next book report.Second,pay for the concert tickets yourselves.Third,find a responsible adult to drive and go to the concert with you because Mom and I have a charity dinner that night.”Alex and Amanda smiled at each other because they knew they could easily cover the first two conditions.The only problem was finding an adult to go to the concert with them.Then a thought occurred to Amanda,and she looked across the table at her oldest sister.“Andrea,you could go with us.You are18years old which makes you an adult,and you are responsible,”Amanda said with a pleading look in her eyes.Andrea thought about it for a couple of minutes.Then she said,“I guess I could help my youngest siblings out,but I also have a condition.I want you two to pay for my ticket and a ticket for a friend of mine to go with us too.”Alex and Amanda thought that sounded reasonable.They figured they Alex would mow a couple extra lawns to make money,and Amanda would take on a couple more babysitting jobs.They immediately agreed to Andrea’s stipulation.The day of the concert had arrived.Andrea,Alex and Amanda got into the car and went to pick up Andrea’s friend Renee.Alex and Amanda weren’t the only ones in the car who were excited.As they rode to the concert,they listened to the band’s most recent release.Everyone was singing and having fun.When they got to the arena,they all went immediately to the concession stand to get some goodies so they wouldn’t have to leave their seats during the show if their stomachs growled.They also stopped at another stand to buy t-shirts.They were more than ready for the show.Andrea and Renee let Alex and Amanda have the seats with the best view.They all settled in and waited for the band to start.Alex and Amanda could hardly contain themselves as the band took the stage.Then the music began.It was so loud that they couldn’t hear each other talk,but they didn’t mind.Now they knew what their older sisters meant by experiencing live music.It was amazing watching the band members play the piano,guitar and drums,and hearing the elements of the music coming together with the band’s voices.The band played all of Alex and Amanda’s favorite songs. The show lasted for almost two hours,and there were incredible special effects like they had never seen.It was the most amazing experience Alex and Amanda had ever had.Andrea and Renee agreed that it was a spectacular show too.On the drive home,Alex and Amanda thanked Andrea and Renee over and over again for taking them.“You owe me,”said Andrea with a laugh and a wink of her eye.“Me too,”chimed in Renee.The only bad part of the evening for all of them was that they would have to wait another three years to hear the band live.Circle the best answer.9.What was the rule about going to a concert?a.a person needed to be in eighth gradeb.a person needed to be in ninth gradec.a person needed to be an adultd.a person needed to be able to walk to the concert10.Who took Alex and Amanda to
