阜蒙县第二高中2017~2018学年度第二学期高一期中考试英语试卷时间:100分钟分数:120分第一部分:阅读理解(共两节;第一节:共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)AOn the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle(迷宫) that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be?I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.Since then, I've been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some outofclass activities because you'll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn't straight A's.Most important of all, be who you are, whether you're a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.1. The main reason for the author's fear on his first day is that ________.A.he was not familiar with the new surroundingsB.his schoolmates were unfriendly to himC.he was unable to work out the puzzleD.his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry2. From the author's first day experience we can infer that ________.A.he didn't know the right way to classB.he got to school before classes beganC.he was fond of the school immediately.D.his home was far from the school3. After his first week at school, the author ________.A.was still not accustomed to the scheduleB.gradually adjusted himself to the new schoolC.found high school not so challenging as he had imaginedD.ran for monitor of his class against three other students4. According to the passage, the secret of the author's success lies mainly in________.A.making more friends B.getting more A's at schoolC.being who he really is D.joining in out of class activitiesBEvery day we go to school and listen to teachers, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends --- you are in a situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease in ordinary conversation but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.5. When you speak to the class, you should speak __________.A.as loudly as possible B.loudly C.in a lowvoice D.forcefully6. The situation in the class is _________ that in your house.A.not very different from B.not the same asC.the same as D.sometimes the same as7. The main idea of this passage is __________.A.that we should talk in different ways in different situationsB.that we must speak loudlyC.that we must keep silent at any time D.that we must talk with the classCLong bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”Drink Good Wet Root Beer.”Fill up with Pacific Gas.”Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless (鲁莽的) or daring, the ride can be as thrilling (惊心动魄的) as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap,with your hands on the armrests even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.8. According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A. Advertisements on the billboards.B. Films on television.C. Buses on the road.D. Gas stations.9. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To give the writer’s opinion about long bus trips.B. To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C. To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D. To describe the billboards along the road.10. The writer of this passage would probably favor .A. bus drivers who aren’t recklessB. driving aloneC. a television set on the busD. no billboards along the road11. The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because .A. the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB. they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in betweenC. the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD. both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.12. The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are.A. comfortableB. excitingC. tiringD. boringDTokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time.In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to go. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that, it is different when one wants to walk.At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London's Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when the night-clubs are closing and every-body wants to go home. There are 35,000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty(空的).During the day, most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time.In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.13. Tokyo is different from London in that ______.A. it has a larger populationB. there are more traffic jamsC. night clubs are sometimes emptyD. it is more difficult to go somewhere on foot14. Fires break out___________ in Tokyo according to the writer.A. not very oftenB. only several times a dayC. quite oftenD. very seldom15. Japanese trains ______A. often leave and arrive on timeB. are often crowdedC. are the main means people use to travel to and from workD. all of the above第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Everyone wants to achieve happiness and smile.16 How can you find real happiness and smile? By getting rich? In case you are scratching your head,looking for some reasons or ideas to be happy, here are a few.Throw an impromptu(即兴的) party. 17 An impromptu one increases the joy to a new level. And of course making other people happy is bound to have the same effect on you.Treat yourself. Sometimes all it takes to make one happy is a little ind ulgence(放纵). So, go ahead and grab a cup of coffee and sit inside a blanket with a good book! You will be surprised at how happy it makes you.18 Happiness can be transformed! When we feel happy and excited, it can lift the spirits of others. Your simple gesture can transform a person’s day and get him or her prepared to take on any challenge.Have a conversation with a parent. If you are like most kids, you possibly spend more time texting or surfing the Internet than talking to your family. 19 You will be surprised at the feeling of joy that it brings to you.Finally, don’t forget to be happy every day! While International Day of Happiness may come about only once a year, happiness is around you all day and night. 20A. You just have to seek it out and grab it.B. But life is hard,so it is very difficult to find real happiness and smile.C. Most of your family members show no interest in texting or the Internet.D. Set aside your mobile phone for a few minutes and have a chat with a family member.E. Be friendly to others and smile at a stranger.F. Nothing makes people happier than being invited to a party.G. You should try to celebrate the Day of Happiness every day and everywhere.第二部分英语知识运用第一节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)“Mum, can I invite my classmate Brett over to stay tomorrow night, please?

But as she approached this one, it didn't move.She was certain that the bird needed medical attention. Cordova draped(披,悬挂)her jacket over the bird's head to keep it calm, carefully picked it up, and held it gently in her arms. She was wondering how to transport a 17-pound swan on her bike to the recovery center when, luckily, some confused strangers driving by offered her, her bike, and the swan a lift to a nearby subway station. Cordova called the recovery center on the way, and Tristan, an animal care manager, picked her up at the subway station and drove the bird, the bike, and the rescuer to the facility(场所). There, staff members determined that the swan might have lead(铅)poisoning. Sadly, even with all that tender loving care, the swan got contracted, which caused her passed away two months after being rescued.It's a disappointing ending, but the real story is just how far some people are willing to go to save a swan in the big city.

The Hangzhou Asian Games will be the largest comprehensive sports event in Asia ever, with 40 sports including 61 sub-ones and 481 gold medals to be awarded. There are symbolic sports representing Asia such as wushu, sepak takraw, cricket and ju-jitsu, and emerging ones that are popular with the youth such as skateboarding, sport climbing, e-sports and breaking(霹雳舞), with the latter two newly-introduced in this Games. The Hangzhou Asian Games will present the diversity and inclusiveness(包容性)of Asian sports culture.Boasting the West Lake and known as "paradise on earth", Hangzhou is one of the birthplaces of Chinese silk, calligraphy, painting, printing and seal cutting(篆刻), and a city with artistic conception and innovative vitality(活力), leading in the areas of Internet and digital economy in China.The Games' three mascots(吉祥物)named Chenchen, Congcong and Lianlian are three robots carrying cultural and modern meanings.

Now, a new study has sounded a fresh warning on the damage caused to the marine ecosystem(海洋生态系统)due to plastics thrown away, which finally has an effect on human health due to the seafood we eat.In a paper titled A Growing Plastic Smog published on March 8 in the research journal Plos One, researchers called on governments around the world to take thorough action to address the "plastic pollution" of the world's oceans.No one knows for certain what the long-term damage will be to marine life and humans, but the study placed the blame on the plastics industry for failing to recycle or design for recyclability.Marcus Eriksen, lead author of the study, said in a statement that the findings were a "obvious warning that we must act now at a global scale". "We've found an alarming trend of exponential(指数的)growth of microplastics in the global ocean since the millennium(千禧年), reaching over 170 trillion plastic particles," said Eriksen, adding that the exponential increase in microplastics across the world's oceans makes it essential to guide in an age of shared responsibility for the entire life of the things they make.12. What does the new research's finding focus on?A. The polluted seafood.B. The bad effect of plastic pollution.C. The damage caused by marine ecosystem.13. Who should take responsibility for the damage caused by plastic pollution?A. The plastics industry.B. Governments.C. Common people.14. What is Marcus Eriksen's attitude to the increasing microplastics in the ocean?A. Doubtful.B. Unclear.C. Concerned.15. What is the suggested solution to the issue of plastic pollution?A. Banning plastic production.B. Designing recyclable plastics.C. Promoting shared responsibility.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

ANational Geographic Exhibit " Titanic : The Untold Story"The National Geographic Museum is always an interesting and educational place to visit. The admission isn't free but is definitely worthwhile for unique exhibits like this. We'll be taking a self-guided tour but there may also be museum staff on hand. About the exhibitionOn this exhibition, you will be surprised to find that the sunken Titanic was discovered by Robert Ballard, who was then carrying out a top secret Cold War mission(任务). In 1985, Ballard's mission was to dive to depths of 9 ,800 feet using a camera system called Argo to find and document the exploded remains of the submarine(潜艇) Scorpion. The objective of the mission was to gain evidence to determine what led to her loss. After concluding his successful investigations, Ballard used the final 12 days of his expedition to discover the remains of Titanic.The exhibition - originally exhibited at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum -shows the history of the discovery from an entirely new angle. Not only are visitors exposed to the historical events that led to the ship's finding, but they can hear the fascinating stories of some of the passengers on board the ship. In addition to items borrowed from families of the survivors that have not been reunited since the night the ship sank in 1912, the exhibition contains those from the rich collections of the National Archives and the 20th Century Fox Archives. There are also movie sets and clothes worm by actors from the 1997 movie Titanic.PriceRegular: $15Seniors/Students/Military: $12Children5--12 (free under 5): $1021. Why did Ballard carry out the 1985 mission?A. To determine the place of Titanic.B. To save passengers during the Cold W ar.C. To help find the reason for Scorpion's loss.D. To experiment with a new camera system.22. What can visitors see in the exhibition?A. The survivors of Titanic.B. The original design of Titanic.C. The movie about the ship Titanic.D. The possessions of the survivors.23. If a retired couple takes their 4-year-old grandson to the exhibition, how much should they pay?A. $24.B. $30.C. $34.D. $40.B"Ae," she said, meaning ”yes" in Hawaiian, when asked a question by a male voice. ”Ae hanau ia wau i Honoma'ele.”("Yes, I was born in Honoma'ele," she said. ) That voice of an elderly Hawaiian woman was that of my great-grandmother, speaking her native language on a Honolulu radio program more than 40 years ago.The first time I heard the CD recording, it sent thrills down my back. I never met my great-grandmother, but hearing her speak in the Hawaiian language was like magic. It was a way to meet her and tor the first time, I heard people speaking the Hawaian language to each other.In Hawaii today, nearly everyone knows how to speak at least a few words of Hawaiian. But the practice of primarily speaking the Hawaiian language from birth nearly died with my great-grandmother's generation. A man named Larry Kimura- the voice interviewing my great-grandmother on that radio program - set out to change that. In the 1970s,when he started the 90-minute radio program, there were just about 2 ,000 of Hawaian speakers left who grew up speaking Hawaian in the home. Today, he puts that population at a couple of dozen.The Hawaiian language had been banned from school instruction in 1896. And by the time Kimura's show was on the air, there weren't many places to formally learn the Hawaiian language, even as a second language. " Language is the first aspect of a people to vanish," said Kimura.” People don't recognize that until it's almost gone, because they' re hanging onto their typical culture identification tags such as their songs,their foods or what they wear.As for my family, my great-grandmother did not pass along the Hawalian language to her children. But that doesn't mean it's too late. Last year, my kids and I joined a Hawaiian cultural group and hula school.

A new study shows that so-called " recovery sleep" cannot reset the body clock and may actually lead to some serious health problems.Christopher Depner, an assistant professor at the Department of Integrative Physiology of the University of Colorado Boulder, said,”Sleep loss can influence a range of physiological systems. It can increase our risk of high blood pressure and heart disease, it can cause weight gain, and it can increase our risk of diabetes (糖尿病)."In the study, Depner and his colleagues divided the volunteers into three groups.One group was allowed to get a full night's sleep. The next was kept to just five hours each night. And the third group went back and forth, limited to five hours of shut-eye during the workweek, allowed as much sleep as they wanted over the weekend, and then back to five hours for the last couple of days."We found that a loss of sleep leads to a sharp increase in snaking (吃零食). But even more surprising, sleeping on the weekend doesn’t help--and even makes thing worse" said Depener. " After the weekend.,when they went back to getting inadequate sleep during the wok or school week, their liver and muscle insulin (胰岛素) sensitivity or blood sugar regulation was reduced. And this is not something we found in people who had long-term inadequacy sleep schedules. So it's possible that this is a worsening of the body's ability to regulate blood sugar for these specific tissues after the weekend. ”So make a date with a pillow. And trade the sweets for sweet dreams.28. What effect does sleep loss have on people?A. It results in changes in their moods.B. It does harm to the body clock.C. It damages the liver severely.D. It makes people become fatter.29. What do we know about the volunteers in the second group?A. They were allowed to have the least sleep in a week.B. They could have as much sleep as possible on weekends.C. Their liver and muscle insulin sensitivity was reduced.D. Their ability to regulate blood sugar was found worsened.30. What does the author advise readers to do according to the text?A. To sleep extra hours on weekends.B. To balance their work and sleep.C. To trade some sweets as possible,D. To get enough sleep on weekdays.31. From which part of a website is the text probably taken?A. Culture.B. Health.C. Sci-tech.D. Fashion.DFor a few months twice a year, the waters off California are home to gray whales moving north or south between the coast of Mexico and the Bering Sea. This year, however, it seems that fewer whales are surviving the journey north. So far this year,a total of 30 dead gray whales have washed up on the West Coast: Eight in Washington, one in Oregon and 21 in California. Those numbers are usually high.In Northern California, three out of four of the dead whales that have been examined so far appear to have died of starvation and the fourth was killed by a ship strike, said Barbie Halaska, a research assistant at The Marine( 海洋的)Mammal Center ( TMMC),a nonprofit organization that rescues and rehabilitates ( 使康复) marine mammals in California. Halaska and her colleagues examined the four whales ---three young whales and one adult male---and planned to examine the remaining dead whales in the region in the next couple of days.Gray whales were once severely threatened by whalers. Only around 2 ,000 of them lived in the ocean in 1946,so an international agreement to stop gray whale hunting was signed in order to help the population recover. Gray whales were removed from the endangered species list in 1994 when the population reached 23,000 individuals and TMMC predicts there are now around 26 ,000 gray whales in the Pacific Ocean, which is about how many there were before the whaling boom got up steam almost 200 years ago.Although the gray whale population has recovered to a certain degree, the number of dead whales washing up this year is alarming, Halaska said. Climate change and declining fish stocks are likely key factors in the whales' poor health,she said.Halaska stressed that boaters and beachgoers on the West Coast should watch out for gray whales this time of year.32. What are the statistics in paragraph 3 about?A. Severe conditions facing gray whales.B. An agreement to stop killing whales.C. The evolving development of gray whales.D. The number of gray whales in different times.33. What's Halaska's attitude towards the population of gray whales?A. Worried.B. Discouraged.C. Optimistic.D. Uncaring.34. What may be talked about following the last paragraph?A. The importance of gray whales.B. Gray whales' living environment.C. Things to do to help gray whales.D. Ways to increase gray whales' population.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Gray Whales Are Threatened by WhalersB. Why Many Gray Whales Died on California's CoastC. Gray Whales Are in Great Danger of Dying OutD. Where Gray Whales Move to Avoid Being Hunt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人空白处的最佳选项。

When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks with the exact words you have just heard. For the third time, you should check what you have written.Passage:In the past few decades, the Internet has become an integral part of our lives. It has revolutionized the way we communicate, access information, and even do business. (1) ________, it has also brought about numerous challenges and concerns.One of the most significant impacts of the Internet is the way we communicate. We can now connect with people from all over the world in an instant. However, this convenience has also led to issues such as cyberbullying and privacy breaches. (2) ________, we need to be cautious about the information we share online.The Internet has also transformed the way we access information. We can find answers to almost any question within seconds.

Many businesses have shifted to online platforms, which has created new opportunitiesfor entrepreneurs. (4) ________, it has also caused job displacement and economic inequality.Despite these challenges, the Internet continues to be a powerful tool that has the potential to connect and empower people around the globe.Part II Reading Comprehension (35 points)Section A(20 points)Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center.Passage 1The use of solar energy has become increasingly popular in recent years. Many countries have started to invest in solar power plants and encourage the use of solar panels in residential areas. The reasons for this trend are both environmental and economic.Environmentalists argue that solar energy is a clean and renewable source of energy. Unlike fossil fuels, solar energy does not emit harmful greenhouse gases, which contribute to climate change. By using solar energy, we can reduce our carbon footprint and help protect the planet.Economically, solar energy is becoming more affordable. The cost of solar panels has decreased significantly over the past decade, making them more accessible to the average consumer. Additionally, governments often offer subsidies and tax incentives to encourage the adoption of solar energy.Despite these benefits, there are some challenges associated with solar energy. One major concern is the efficiency of solar panels. While technology has improved, solar panels still cannot convert a highpercentage of sunlight into electricity. Another issue is the storage of solar energy. Without efficient storage solutions, excess solar energy generated during the day cannot be used at night.Passage 2Online learning has become a popular alternative to traditional classroom education. This shift is partly due to the convenience and flexibility it offers students. With online learning, students can access course materials and participate in discussions from anywhere in the world. However, this convenience comes with its own set of challenges.One of the main challenges of online learning is the lack of face-to-face interaction. In a traditional classroom, students can ask questions and receive immediate feedback from their teachers. In an online setting, this interaction is often limited, which can lead to misunderstandings and confusion.Another challenge is the potential for academic dishonesty. In an online environment, it is easier for students to cheat on exams or submit work that is not their own. This issue requires institutions to implement stricter policies and monitoring systems.Despite these challenges, online learning has proven to be an effective educational tool. It can provide students with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the modern workforce.Section B(15 points)Directions: There is one passage in this section. The passage isfollowed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide onthe best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center.Questions 6-10 are based on the following passage.The impact of social media on young people has been a topic of much debate in recent years. While some argue that social media has apositive influence, others believe it has a detrimental effect on mental health.Advocates of social media argue that it can be a powerful tool for connecting with friends and family. It allows young people to stay in touch with loved ones who may live far away. Additionally, social media platforms can provide access to information and resources that can be beneficial for personal growth and learning.However, critics of social media highlight the negative effects it can have on mental health. Constant exposure to idealized images and lifestyles can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. Moreover, the pressure to maintain an online presence can be overwhelming and lead to anxiety and depression.It is important to recognize that social media is not inherently good or bad. Its impact on individuals depends on how it is used. Young people should be educated about the potential risks and encouraged to usesocial media responsibly.Part III Writing (25 points)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the topic "The Importance of Reading." You can choose to write in Chinese or English. Your essay should start with a brief introduction and then elaborate on the following aspects:1. The benefits of reading for individuals.2.

Your personal experiences with reading.Remember to use your own words and include relevant examples to support your points.[Your Essay]---This is a simplified version of a high school English高考真题试卷.

How many people questioned don't play with their children?A. 1280.B. More than 333.C. 654.D. About 420.62. The study leads us to believe that _____________.A. the pets in the UK will be in trouble if their owners keep their way of lifeB. Glasgow people feel ashamed because they don't get enough exerciseC. British people are the laziest around the worldD. five sixths of the British children are healthy63. How does the author convince the readers?A. By presenting the results of a study.B. By providing answers to questions.C. By interviewing some experts.D. By telling a story.64. What is the passage mainly about?A. A study of British people's laziness.B. A study of British people's lifestyles.C. The health service in the UK.D. The obesity problem in the UK.BOften, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or harsh(刻薄的)and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid.Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem(自尊)and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.65. The main idea of the first paragraph is that .A. words have a lasting effect on usB. inspiring words give us confidenceC. negative words may let us downD. not sticks and stones but words will hurt us66. There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because .A. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselvesB. talking to ourselves always gives us courageC. we can benefit from talking to ourselvesD. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone67. The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely .A. remind ourselvesB. praise ourselvesC. make ourselves relaxedD. give ourselves amusement68. The author would probably hold the view that .A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offersB. negative words may motivate us to make more progressC. people tend to remember friendly wordsD. it is better to think twice before talking to othersCFlying across the globe, whether on business or for leisure, is usually effortless——you just have to book your ticket, pack your bags and show up at the airport with your passport.

He walked in the streets of Brooklyn day after day with his favourite music blasting directly into his ears. By his early 20s, Michael had lost much of his upper-range hearing.The children’s Hearing Institute reports th at hearing loss among children and young adults is rising in the United States, and that one-third of the damage is caused by noise.Surrounded by NoiseWe live in a noisy world. Young and old alike are beset by sounds over which we may have little or no control: power mowers, leaf blowers, snow blowers, car and house alarms, sirens, motorcycles, Jet Skis, loudspeakers, even movie previews.We attend rock concerts, weddings, parties and sports events at which the music is so loud you can hardly hear the person sitting next to you. At home, televisions, stereos and computer games are often turned up so loud that listeners cannot hear a doorbell or a telephone. Many “modern” restaurants have chosen noisy enhancement instead of abatement (减轻). Any time you need to shout to be heard by someone near you, your hearing is most likely to be in a decibel (分贝) danger zone.As if environmental noise were not enough, now we surround children with noisy toys and personal listening devices that can permanently damage their hearing. Toys that meet the safety standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials can produce sound up to 138 decibels, as loud as a jet taking off. Yet workplace rules require hearing protection for those exposed tonoise above 85 decibels.Introduction A boy lost much of his hearing due to being 1. __________ to headphones.

When you’ve got it, you never think about it. When you haven’t got it, you think about it all the time. Our biggest enemies are not terrible diseases and so on. We are our own biggest enemies because we sometimes destroy our own good health. Some of us eat too much, drink too much and smoke too much. And though our reason tells us we should control ourselves, we find it difficult. The fact is that most human beings needstimulation(刺激). Who doesn’t enjoy a drink after a busy day? Only a smoker knows the pleasure of a cigarette with a cup of coffee.The danger is when these innocent pleasures run our lives and so destroy our health. When you find yourself eating between meals or eating too much rich food, when you can only keep yourself going by taking frequent(频繁的) drinks or by smoking one cigarette after another, then it’s time to stop and think what you might be doing to yourself. The funny thing is that when we don’t control ourselves, simple pleasures are no longer simple pleasures.All right, I know what you’re thinking. You’re probably saying, “It’s easy to say, but I can’t help mysel f. I need that extra bit of food, that extra drink, that extra cigarette. Life has so many pleasures that I can’t do without them.” But I’m saying you can help yourself. Not only that, you must help yourself. Because if you don’t help yourself, no one else can. So be your own best friend.41. The underlined word “innocent”(in Paragraph 2) means ________.A. not having done something wrongB. exciting or cheeringC. not having much experienceD. not expected to cause harm42. This passage is mainly about ________.A. terrible diseases and so onB. enjoying pleasures after a busy dayC. the difficulty of controlling ourselvesD. the danger of too much drinking, smoking and eating43. “I can’t help myself” means ____________.A. I can’t do it myselfB. I must ask someone to helpC. I can’t control myselfD. Do help me, pleaseBPennsylvania—When Connie Beck and her husband awoke to strange noises last weekend, they thought high winds were rattling(便发出响声) their home.What they found was even more unexpected: A deer was taking a bubble(泡沫) bath in their bathtub.“I wasn’t exactly dressed for company,” Mrs. Beck said. “We were just waking up.”The deer burst through the front door early on Saturday, ran past the couple’s bedroom and into the bathroom.Somehow he managed to turn on the water in the bathtub and knock over a bottle of bubble bath into the bathtub.He then got himself into the bubbly water.“You could hear the water running over the kicking,” Beck said.The Becks called State Game Commission officials, who arrived with tranquilizers(镇静剂) and a lot of laughter.“A guy said, ‘There’s nothing wrong… he’s just in there taking a bubble bath,’” Mrs. Beck said.The animal was soon brought under control, removed from the house and released.“He was unharmed except for a little cut above the eye,” said Mrs. Beck. “We were also fortunate. There wasn’t much damage, except for the front door, some marks on the tub, and a few hoof(蹄) prints on the floor.”44. When did the story take place?A. On the night of Friday.B. On the late night of Saturday.C. On the early morning of Saturday.D. On Sunday evening.45. When Mrs. Beck said, “I wasn’t exactly dressed for company,”(in paragraph 3) she ______.A. was joking about the incidentB. meant she never liked people to visitC. explained she was about to go to workD. wished she could have new clothes46.After the animal burst through the door and entered the bathroom, he _______.A. managed to cover himself with bubblesB. kicked over the tubC. began to swim in the tubD. happened to turn on the bath taps47.. When he was removed from the house, _______.A. the deer was set freeB. the deer destroyed the tub and the floorC. the officials made fun of the coupleD. the officials discovered the deer was badly injured in the eyeCAmerican hunger for cheese was reduced a bit when consumers(消费者) traveled and ate out less following the year of 2001. Now their appetite(胃口) is back and they are eating more cheese than ever.Most of the demand is being fed by household suppliers, and California’s mega-dairies(大制酪场) are growing so fast that experts expect the state to overtake Wisconsin in cheeseproduction within two years. California is already the nation’s leading milk producer, and with the help of cheese makers like Hilmar Cheese Company—the largest in North America—the state has doubled its cheese production in the last ten years.In 1995, California made 70 varieties of cheese. Now there are 250 types of cheese coming out of the state. One out of every 10 pounds of cheese eaten is a higher-quality, value-added cheese. Ten years ago, only one in 15 pounds of cheese eaten was a specialty. The vast majority is common cheese, but Americans are also eating much more cheese.It is good news for California’s dairies(牛奶场). By pooling their resources, farmers could turn some of the high-protein, high-fat milk coming from their brown cows into cheese, a value-added product that would bring in a little extra cash. When they started the Hilmar Cheese Company in 1984, the 12 families together brought in 250,000 pounds of milk a day—a drop in a bucket for a company that now processes(加工) 10 million pounds of milk a day from more than 270 producers—about 10 percent of all the milk produced in California.Cheese has great healthful value, and brings calcium(钙) back into diets. But it also makes food taste better, making it easier to eat too much. “It’s terrible that we’re eating more cheese, but bottom line, all calories count,” said Stern, who also suggests people should try to eat cheese in slightly different ways, with pears or apple slices—expanding their diets.48. The passage is written to tell us _______.A. dairies are developing very fastB. Americans eat more cheese than everC. how dairies are developing in AmericaD. cheese is developing towards more varieties49.. When the Hilmar Cheese Company was opened, it _______.A. was the largest company producing cheeseB. made 70 varieties of cheeseC. was supplied with milk by 12 producersD. was made up of 12 families then50. The underlined word “It” (in Paragraph 4) refers to the fact that ______.A. Americans are eating more and more cheeseB. cheese has more varietiesC. cheese has great healthful valueD. California is the nation’s leading milk producer51.. In the opinion of Stern, ______.A. the more we eat cheese, the better we’ll becomeB. Americans are eating too much cheeseC. more ways of eating cheese should be developedD. Americans should not eat cheese any longerDA number of times Rosemary edged closer to Gordon, meaning to take his arm, but he edged away from her. She thought that she has offended(冒犯) him deeply, and that he was disappointed because she had pushed him away. She would have apologized if he had given her half a chance. But as a matter of fact, he was scarcely thinking of this any longer. It was the money business that was troubling him now. And the fact was that he would soon have to confess it. What nonsense it made of all he had said! There he was behaving like a man of experience, and the next moment turninground and asking her for money! Presently she stopped him, and swung him round to face her. “Gordon, why won’t you speak to me?”she said. “Are you still angry with me for what happened just now?”“No, I was never angry with you. You’re not to blame. Something else has been worrying me all the way along. I’ve only eight pence left. I had just enough money for today when we started out, but that dinner bill upset everything. Can you lend me some money?”Rosemary was amazed. “What does it matter if you’ve only eight pence left? How can you let yourself be worried by a thing like that? As though I objected to lending you money, aren’t always telling you that I want to pay for myself when we go out together?”“Yes, and you know how I hate you paying.”“Oh, how silly you are,”she said. “Do you think there’s anything to be ashamed of in having no money?”Gordon’s face went bright pink. “Of course there is! It’s the only thing in the world there is to be ashamed of. I can’t be a complete human being—I don’t feel a human being—unless I’ve got money in my pocket.”52. What gave Rosemary the idea that she had hurt Gordon’s feelings deeply?A. He didn’t hold her arm.B. He pushed her away when she tried to take his arm.C. He didn’t say he was sorry.D. He wouldn’t let her touch him.53. The underlined word “confess”(in Paragraph 1) can be replaced by “_______”.A. understandB. acceptC. admitD. tell54. Rosemary made him look at her because ______.A. she wanted to ask him a questionB. she wanted to see his faceC. he was angry with herD. he had been rude55.

高中英语试卷(五)学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解1.Located in Los Angeles, University of Southern California is in the heart of the leading city. Although L. A. ranks high in The Economist's Safe Cities Index, navigating the city calls for certain safety precautions(预防措施) along with practical common sense.♦ Mobile Safety App Powered by LiveSafeThe Mobile Safety App powered by LiveSafe, managed by the USC Department of Public Safety and the USC Department of Emergency Planning, is a free downloadable app that mobile users can use to initiate contact with emergency responders around campus. Features include: immediate "push button" calls to DPS, easy reporting for suspicious activities or crimes in progress, and location services lonotify friends of your route through campus.♦ Blue Light Phone LocationsThe University Park has multiple blue light phones that are strategically placed throughout campus.

These phones are directly connected to the USC's Department of Public Safety's 24-hour communications center. Besides emergency needs,it can also be used to report suspicious activities, request an escort(护送者) if you feel unsafe and to report a crime.♦ Trojans AlertTrojansAlert is an emergency notification system that allows university officials to contact you during: an emergency l)y sending messages via text messages or e-mails. When an emergency occurs, authorized USC senders will instantly notify you with real-time updates, instructions on where to go, what to do (or what not to do) , whom to contact and so on.

They also included their favorite Pacsafe bag to take on the trip. Enjoy and hopefully get some ideas for your own adventure.Sri Lanka---Alison Hanko, Global Marketing DirectorI’m going to Sri Lanka this summer holiday and can’t wait. The food is supposed to be amazing. It seems really relaxing and I really want to do the Kandy to Badulla train ride, which looks just attractive. We’ve booked a good mix of beaches, some time in a tent to hopefully see elephants in the wild.For my bag, I’ll most likely take the Quicksilver 40L Pack because it has the built-in wet pack for my swimming suit. It’s also a great size for a week-long trip in a warm climate.Japan---Ben Barras, Creative DirectorJapan is definitely my best travel destination suggestion. The culture, the streets, the architecture, the inspiration you get from all of that is amazing. The food is also fascinating. You can go snowboarding, which I haven’t done for years.I have a Vibe 25L Backpack which you can pack a lot in. I’ll pair that up with a larger travel bag for the rest of my things and use the backpack to get around day to day.Berlin---Phil Hayes, Executive VP of Global DesignFor me, it’s definitely Berlin. I’m particularly excited about the fashion, which I hear is pretty full-on. Also the art galleries and history. Food, nightlife. Everything I’ve heard about Berlin is pretty cool, so I’m going to suck as much as I can out of it.Bag wise, it will be the Qui cksilver X Collab Bag. It’s the 25L Anti-theft Backpack. It’s normally my go-to bag for city trips because it’s super easy to lock on the plane and in bars, and it’s just the right amount of space.1.Which of the Pacsafe bag is a good choice for beach travel?A.25L Anti-theft Backpack.B.The Vibe 25L Backpack.C.The Quicksilver 40L Pack.D.The Quicksilver X Collab Bag.2.What can you enjoy in all the three places mentioned?A.Amazing food.B.Beautiful beaches.C.Fascinating art.D.Cool snowboarding.3.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A.present cultures in different countriesB.offer practical tips on taking adventureC.advise favorite travel destinationsD.share personal travelling experiences3.Anyone who commutes by car knows that traffic jams are an unavoidable part of life. But humans are not alone in facing potential backups.Ants also commute—between their nest and sources of food. The survival of their colonies depends on doing this efficiently.When humans commute, there’s a point at which cars become dense(稠密)enough to slow down the flow of traffic, causing jam. Motsch, a mathematician in Arizona State University, and his colleagueswanted to know if ants on the move could also get stuck. So they regulated traffic density by constructing bridges of various widths between a colony of Argentine ants and a source of food. Then they waited and watched.But it appears that that never happened. They always managed to avoid traffic jam. The flow of ants did increase at the beginning as ants started to fill the bridge and then leveled off(趋于平稳)at high densities. But it never slowed down, even when the bridge was nearly filled with ants.The researchers then took a closer look at how the behavior of individual ants impacted traffic as a whole. And they found that when ants sense overcrowding, they adjust their speeds and avoid entering high-density areas, which prevents jams. These behaviors may be promoted by pheromones, chemicals that tell other ants where a trail is. The ants also manage to avoid colliding(碰撞)with each other at high densities, which could really slow them down. The study is in the journal eLife.Can ants help us solve our own traffic problems? Not likely, says Motsch. That’s because when it comes to getting from point A to point B as fast as possible, human drivers put their own goals first. Individual ants have to be more cooperative in order to feed the colony. But the research could be useful in improving traffic flow for self-driving cars, which can be designed to be less like selfish humans—and more like ants.1.What does the underlined word “this” in para. 2 refer to?A.Surviving.muting.C.Finding food.D.Avoiding jams.2.How did the researchers control the traffic density of the commuting ants?A.By finding out the dense points.B.Through closer observation.C.By controlling the widths of their path.D.By regulating their numbers.3.According to the research, ants can avoid traffic jams mainly because ____________.A.they follow a special route.B.they level off at high densities.C.they never stop or slow down on the way.D.they depend on their natural chemicals to adjust their speeds.4.What is the best title of the passage?A.Traffic jams.B.Unavoidable? Not for ants!C.Survival of an ant colony.D.Difference between human and ants.二、七选五4.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。
