GaryBOne day when I was 12，my mother gave me an order：I was to walk to the public library，and borrow at least one book for the summer．This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem-inability to read．In the library，I found my way into the "Children's Room"．I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random．The cover of a book caught my eye．It presented a picture of a beagle．I had recently had a beagle，the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child．He was my secret sharer，but one morning，he was gone，given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him．I never forgot my beagle．There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical（相同的）to my dog．I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover．My eyes ran across the title，Amos，the Beagle with a Plan．Unknowingly，I had read the title．Without opening the book，I borrowed it from the library for the summer．Under the shade of a bush，I started to read about Amos．I read very，very slowly with difficulty．Though pages were turned slowly，I got the main idea of the story about a dog who，like mine，had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home．That dog was my dog，and I was the little boy in the book．At the end of the story，my mind continued the final scene of reunion，on and on，until my own lost dog and I were，in my mind，running together．My mother's call returned me to the real world．I suddenly realized something：I had read a book，and I had loved reading that book．Everyone knew I could not read．But I had read it．Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them．I never told my mother about my"miraculous（奇迹般的）"experience that summer，but she sawa slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year．And years later，she was proud that her son had read thousands of books，was awarded a PhD in literature，and authored his own books，articles，poetry and fiction．The power of the words has held．4.The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to ______ ．A. encourage him to do more walkingB. let him spend a meaningful summerC. help cure him of his reading problemD. make him learn more about weapons5.The book caught the author's eye because ______ ．A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked children's stories very much6.What can be inferred from the last paragraph？______A. The author has become a successful writer．B. The author's mother read the same book．C. The author's mother rewarded him with books．D. The author has had happy summers ever since．7.Which one could be the best title of the passage？______A. Mum's Strict OrderB. The Charm of a BookC. Reunion with My BeagleD. My Passion for ReadingCA typical lion tamer （驯兽师）in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip （鞭）and a chair．The whip gets all of the attention，but it's mostly for show．In reality，it's the chair that does the important work．When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face，the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time．With its focus divided，the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next．When faced with so many options，the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair．How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion？How often do you have something you want to achieve （e．g．lose weight，start a business，travel more）----only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress？This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best，the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information．The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrongthings，and so we take less action，make less progress，and stay the same when we could be improving．It doesn't have to be that way．Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face，remember this：All you need to do is focus on one thing．You just need to get started．Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people．If you have somewhere you want to go，something you want to accomplish，someone you want to become …take immediate action．If you're clear about where you want to go，the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way．8.Why does the lion tamer use a chair？______A. To show off his skills．B. To trick the lion．C. To get ready for a fight．D. To entertain the audience．9.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair？______A. They feel puzzled over choices．B. They hold on to the wrong things．C. They find it hard to make changed．D. They have to do something for show．10.What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3？______A. TolerantB. DoubtfulC. RespectfulD. Supportive11.When the world is"waving a chair in your face"，you're advised to ______ ．A. wait for a better chanceB. break your old habitsC. make a quick decisionD. ask for clear guidanceDIf you could have one superpower，what would it be？Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds，see through walls，or have superhuman strength may sound silly，but it actually gets to the heart of what reallymatters in your life．Every day in our work，we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world．They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess：the power to make a difference in the lives of others．We're not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor．Your lives are busy enough doing homework，playing sports，making friends，seeking after your dreams．But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself．Find an issue you are interested in and learn more．Volunteer or，if you can，contribute a little money to a cause．Whatever you do，don't be a bystander．Get involved．You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you're older．But why not start now？Our own experience working together on health，development，and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives．It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead．12.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to？______A. Your life style．B. Your life value．C. Your trouble in life．D. Your life experience．13.Why does the author say they are inspired every day？______A. They possess different kinds of superpowers．B. They have got the power to change the world．C. Some people around them are making the world better．D. There are many powerful people in their life and work．14.What does the author stress in Paragraph 5？______A. Learning more and contributing more to a cause．B. Rising above self and acting to help others．C. Working hard to get a bigger opportunity．D. Trying your best to help the poor．15.What can be inferred from the last paragraph？______A. The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better．B. Much more progress will be made in the near future．C. The work on health is the most valuable experience．D. People's efforts have been materially rewarded．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life．Every waking moment，the eyes are working to see the world around us．Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight，but it's easy to include steps into our daily life to ensure healthy eyes．Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight：Schedule yearly exams．(1) Experts advise parents to bring babies 6 to 12 months of age to the doctor for a careful check．The good news is that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment，including eye- glasses．Protect against UV rays．Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes．No matter what the season is，it's extremely important to wear sunglasses．(2)Give your eyes a break．Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products．(3) Experts recommend that people practice the 20/20/20 rule：every 20 minutes，take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away．(4) As part of a healthy diet，eat more fruits and vegetables each day．Vitamins C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health．Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses （隐形眼镜）．Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight．While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses，many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk．(5) Otherwise，you may have problems such as red eyes，pain in the eyes，or a more serious condition．A．Eat your greens．B．Eye care should begin early in life．C．They can properly protect your eyes．D．Stay in good shape by taking more vitamins．E．Parents usually don't care about their own eyesight．F．Always follow the doctor's advice for appropriate wear．G．This frequent eye activity increases the risk for eye tiredness．16.

【小题2】B 【小题3】A 【小题4】B【解析】1．C．细节题．根据文章第一段最后一句This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem-inability to read．这是她克服我奇怪的问题的又一个武器-不会读书．可知母亲让他借书看是为了治愈他的阅读问题．故选C．2．B．细节题．根据文章第二段The cover of a book caught my eye．It presented a picture of a beagle．I had recently had a beagle，the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child．一本书的封面引起了我的注意，它展示了一只小猎犬的照片．我最近养了一只小猎犬，这是我小时候第一只也是唯一的动物伴侣．可知，此本书引起作者注意的原因是这本书让作者想起了他自己的狗．所以本题选择B．3．A．推理题．根据第四段That dog was my dog，and I was the little boy in the book．At the end of the story，my mind continued the final scene of reunion，on and on，until my own lost dog and I were，in my mind，running together．那只狗是我的狗，我是书中的小男孩．故事结束时，我的脑海继续着最后一幕的团圆，直到我和自己的走失的狗在我的脑海里一起奔跑．可知作者感同身受地把自己与书本的主人公联系在一起．因此本题选A．4．B．主旨大意题．文章讲述了作者从一名阅读困难的孩子到最终成为一名成功的作家的故事，从而展现给我们我们书本的魅力．所以本题选择B．文章讲述了作者小时候是一名阅读困难的孩子，妈妈想办法法让"我"克服阅读障碍，于是让我步行到图书馆至少借一本书，那次经历让"我"从一名阅读困难的孩子最终成为一名成功的作家，文章旨在告诉我们书本的魅力．阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．8.【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】A 【小题3】B 【小题4】C【解析】28． B 考查细节理解．根据第一段中"When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face，the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time"可知，当驯兽师拿着椅子在狮子面前时，狮子关注椅子的四条腿，因此椅子用是用来戏耍狮子的．故选B．29．A 考查推理判断．根据第一段中的"With its focus divided，the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next"可知，当注意力分散时，狮子开始变得困惑，人们跟狮子相似，也会困惑，不知道该怎么做．故选A．30．B 考查推理判断．根据第三段中"This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best"可知，专家们正忙于讨论哪一种选择是最好的，这令作者苦恼，因此可以推断出作者对专家的态度是怀疑．故选B．31．C 考查推理判断．根据第四段中"Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face，remember this：All you need to do is focus on one thing．You just need to get started．"及"Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people"可知，当你面前挥舞着一把椅子时，你要集中精力做一件事，那就是开始下决心去做．成功的人的习惯之一就是在感觉准备好之前就开始行动，文中的"take immediate action"与"make a quick decision"同义．故选C．本文是一篇议论文．文章以驯兽师拿一把椅子在狮子面前，狮子感到困惑，呆立不动的例子导入，其实我们人也一样，当面对多个选择时，不知该选哪一个，又怕选错了，因此往往进展很小，甚至保持原样．文章旨在告诉我们当遇到多种选择时，要专注一件事，并下决心做下去．解答细节理解题时，一个常用的方法就是运用定位法，即根据题干和选项中的关键词从原文中找到相关的句子，与选项进行比较从而确定答案；推理判断题既要求学生透过文章表面文字信息推测文章隐含意思，又要求学生对作者的态度、意图及文章细节的发展作正确的推理判断，力求从作者的角度去考虑，不要固守自己的看法或观点．12.【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】C 【小题3】B 【小题4】A【解析】（1）．B 猜测句意题．文章中说到we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world．我们都会受到别人的鼓励，做一些有意义的事去不断提高我们生活的世界．这就是生活的意义．故选B．（2）．C 推理判断题．后一句说doing

something much larger than yourself．每个人都可以追逐自己的梦想，但如果你花一点时间和精力去做比自己的梦想更有意义的事，你会发现你的生活更有意义．故选B．（4）．A 推理判断题．文章最后一句说：It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead．帮助别人不但可以改变我们自己，也可以点燃那些最贫穷的人们积极乐观的生活希望．故选A．文章用超能力引出话题：假如一个人有了超能力会怎么样？想像一下你会读心术，会透视，或者拥有超人的力量，听起来有点傻，当其实这也是每个人看待生活的意义．每个人都可以拥有超能力：通过自己的付出，帮助别人，做对别人生活有意义的事．无论做什么，哪怕是一件小事，只要不是袖手旁观，每个人都能在改变自己的同时，也为别人点燃乐观向上的生活希望．这是一篇说理性的文章．这类文章出推理判断题较多，解题时要特别注意作者的态度和立场，不能加入自己的情感或主观臆断．文章一开始就表明了作者的态度：我们每个人都可以拥有超能力，这个超能力就是帮助别人．如果每个人都能付出一点，那么我们的世界将更加美好．作者态度鲜明的提出号召But why not start now？让我们每个人都行动起来吧！从我做起，从小事做起！对作者的写作态度判断准确了，解题时才不会犯错误．16.【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】C 【小题3】G 【小题4】A 【小题5】F【解析】1-5 B C G A F1．B．考查上下文理解判断能力．根据下文Experts advise parents to bring babies 6to 12months of

A．考查名词．根据上文，老木匠既有经验，技艺也高超，但态度不端正犯了大错．因此，一个人做事的态度决定结果，A．attitude B．experience C．skill D．advantage A．态度B．经验C．技能D．优势故选attitude是正确的．故选A．19． D．考查动词．Make a choice/ choices是常见的搭配，意为"作出选择"．A．learn B．take C．see D．make A．学B．学C．看D．做．故选D．20． B．考查副词．根据最后一段和上文中的therefore可知，作者是在告戒读者：我们既然明白了这个道理，"建造自己的房子时"就明智些吧!所以wisely正确．故选B．本文是一篇故事类阅读文章，主要讲述了一位老工匠要退休时发生的事情，告诉读者善始善终．近几年在试题设计上选择了学生感兴趣的热门话题，降低了对单词本身词义及语法的考查，注重上下文联系，突出综合运用英语的能力，全面测试考生的阅读理解能力、逻辑思维能力、逻辑分析能力和推理判断能力．因此，考生做完形填空题时，要快速通读全文，理解文章大意与各段落的中心意思，把握文章脉络和作者的写作意图．41.【答案】【小题1】and 【小题2】bemade【小题3】to create【小题4】using【小题5】as【小题6】gradually 【小题7】who【小题8】development【小题9】were【小题10】with【解析】41．and 考查并列连词．这里列举了一些亚洲国家的名字，是并列关系，故在最后两个名词之间用and来连接．42．be made 考查固定词语搭配．be made of"由…制成"，句意：精美的筷子可能非由金银制成的筷子莫属，故填be made．43．to create 考查不定式做目的状语．句意：技术娴熟的工人也把各种各样的硬质木材和金属结合起来，来创造出特殊风格的筷子．这里是用不定式做目的状语，故填to create．44．using 考查现在分词做方式状语．people是动词use的逻辑主语，两者之间是主动关系，用现在分词作方式状语，故填using．45．as 考查时间状语从句．句意：随着人口的增长，人们把食物切成小块，这样可以煮得快一点．as是连词，表示"随着"的意思，引导时间状语从句，故填as．46．gradually 考查副词的用法．副词用来修饰形容词、动词或者副词，这道题中是用来修饰动词短语turned into的，故填gradually．47．who 考查非限制性定语从句．句中有逗号，说明是非限制性定语从句，先行词是Confucius 孔子，定语从句缺少主语，且指人，故填who．48．development 考查词性转换．the+名词+of，意为"…的…"，这里指"筷子的发展"，故填development．49．were 考查时态．根据句意可知，这里指的是刀子因太暴力而不适合在餐桌上使用，believed后跟一个宾语从句，and连接了两个并列的谓语，主语knives是复数，根据时态一致的原则，这里用一般过去时，故填were．50．with 考查介词的用法．句意：在印度，大部分人还是用传统的吃饭方法--用手拿，with+表示具体工具的名词，故填with．文章主要从筷子使用的范围，制作筷子的方式和方法，筷子使用的历史及其发展等几方面来展开论述的．本题主要考查词法和句法知识，集中考察了词性转换，并列句，定语从句，状语从句和非谓语动词等知识．语法填空是近年来高考英语推出的一种新题型．这种题型能全面检测学生在英语词汇、语法，甚至是句法上的运用能力，能更科学地反映学生的英语综合水平．本题型分两种情况：一种为已给单词提示，一种为不给单词提示．不给词时，这时候通常填的是虚词，并且只填一个词，如介词，冠词，副词，连词．已给单词提示题型的技巧：此类题可以考查学生对单词形式变化的掌握程度．单词形式变化主要有两种，一是词的形、数、式的变化，一是词的派生变化．在判断出词的变化之后还应该进一步审题，看是否需要使用复合的变化形式，这一点是很重要的．42.【答案】In the summer holiday following my eighteen birthday，I took driving lessons．I still remember how hard∧first day was．Before getting into the car，I thought I had learned the instructor's orders，so once I started the car，my mind goes blank．I forgot what he had said to me altogether．The instructor kept repeating t he word，"Speed up!""Slow down!""Turning left!"I was so much nervous that I could hardly tell which direction was left．A few minu tes late，the instructor asked me to stop the car．It was a relief and I came to a suddenly stop just in the m iddle on the road．详解：1．eighteen改为eighteenth ，考查数词．此处应是第十八个生日，用序数词．2．how hard后加the或my ，考查冠词或代词．序数词前用定冠词the．或我学车的第一天，用形容词性物主代词．3．so改为but/yet ，考查连词．前后两个单句表示转折关系，用连词but/yet．4．goes改为went ，考查动词时态．全文讲述的是已发生的事情，用一般过去时．5．word改为words ，考查名词复数．word的基本意思是"单词"，指语言中能独立存在的最小表意单位，也可指"（说的）话，话语，言语，谈话"等，是可数名词，此时要用复数形式．6．Turning改为Turn ，考查祈使句．"Speed up!""Slow down!""Turn left!"这些属于祈使句，要用动词原形．。

Time length．BI'm Andrew Siegel and this is my garden．This is where my family and I grow a lot of different vegetables，flowers and herbs．Gardening has been really important to my family because it gives us an opportunity to spend time outside together，away from all the electronics．Especially for my five-year-old，it really gives her an opportunity to be in touch with nature-all the little animals，insects and things that come out here．We find that a lot of the things that we plan for in the garden don't always go the way that we'd likethem to，and some of the things that we don't plan for become what we enjoy the most that year．So it's something that my family and I have learned：To appreciate（欣赏）all of it．My advice for beginner gardeners is to just start．Get a pot，get a little bit of dirt，get a tomato plant or whatever plant you want and just get started．I think sometimes it seems a little challenging．Trust me，it does not need to be perfect．You will enjoy every little thing you get out of it．Gardening has taught me patience，something I don't naturally have a lot of．It takes weeks，takes months before the work you put into it comes out．You learn not only to be patient，in that end product，but you've also learned that，after years of gardening，the end product is just part of it．The journey of growing has become much more important to me than the actual produce that we get in the end．Nothing has been so valuable as the time I spend out here．I'm by no means in a farmland，but I do have my own little piece of what I consider heaven，and I've really learned to appreciate every little moment-every insect，every plant，every flower-and when you can appreciate it in that way，there's nothing better．4.What does the underlined word "five-year-old" in paragraph 2 refer to？______A. The author．B. The author's daughter．C. The insect．D. The little animal．5.What is the most important for Andrew Siegel in gardening？______A. Planting different vegetables and flowers．B.

The Benefits of GardeningC. Being in Touch with NatureD. Being Patient with LifeCOne of Australia's most famous natural gifts，the Great Barrier Reef is blessed with the breathtaking beauty of the world's largest coral reef．The reef contains a large variety of life and over 3000 reef systems and hundreds of islands with some of the world's most beautifulbeaches．Because of its natural beauty，the Great Barrier Reef has become one of the world's most sought after tourist attractions．However，for the past few years，the news about corals has been discouraging．Currently，the reef is threatened by climate change，tourism，water pollution，and overfishing．Agricultural fertilizer（肥料）runoff from Australian farms also has caused the widespread growth of sea-plants，which absorb most of the nutrients（养分）and leave little remaining for the living coral reef and the animals that live in it．"What has changed is the increasing importance of climate change as a greater threat than the others，" says David Wachenfeld，a scientist of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority．Coral reefs are extremely sensitive（敏感的）to warming ocean temperatures．In a report on April 28，the Australian government said it set aside $500 million to help protect corals．The money will be spent on reducing water pollution from agriculture，fightingcoral-killing starfish，reef monitoring，and research on climate influence．Though the Australian investment is welcome，it will at best only delay coral deaths．It's too little，too late，as a leading coral-scientist Terry Hughes of James Cook University put it．The only way to save corals over the long term is to slow down climate change．That process will require all countries to work together to find the most effective way of cutting emissions （排放）of greenhouse gases．The most recent emissions figures，however，show that the world is failing at that task．The year 2018 has seen an increase in global emissions．This week in Bonn，Germany，countries are meeting to discuss how to keep their word in the Paris climate agreement．Let's hope they hear about the silent death of the world's corals．7.Why does the author write the text？______A. To introduce the Great Barrier Reef．B. To show the result of climate change．C. To offer ways of protecting the Great Barrier Reef．D. To tell us the serious situation of the Great Barrier Reef．8.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2？______A. Sea-plants help to protect the coral reefs．B. Water temperature has little to do with the coral reefs．C. Climate change is the main reason for coral reefs' death．D. Agricultural fertilizer provides nutrients for coral reefs．9.According to Terry Hughes，the Australian investment in protecting the coral reefs was______ ．A. timelyB. unsatisfyingC. effectiveD. useless10.How can we protect the Great Barrier Reef effectively in the long run？______A. By reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases．B. By cutting down the number of tourists．C. By setting more strict rules on overfishing．D. By investing more in climate research．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Learning English as a second language can be a challenge，but it can also bring a lot of advantages．(1) The international business community often uses it for communication，even among people who do not speak the same native language．There are also many professional publications printed in English，which means it is often an important language for anyone working in science or research．(2) People who speak two or more languages can easily get jobs in travel，international business，or translation．Even outside of a professional environment，people often like to be able to talk to individuals from around the world．They can communicate and talk with others more easily．Knowing English can broaden the types of people you can speak to．Many people find great social and cultural benefits in having pen friends from other countries．(3) A large number of websites are available primarily in English．Anyone who does not understand the language may have difficulty using them．Besides，for anyone interested in traveling to countries in which English is the common language，it is often essential to understand and speak it．Throughout the UK，US，and Canada，traveling and shopping are often made easier by speaking English．(4)Learning a language can also be a great way to meet people，even if you never plan on leaving home．A class at a local community center or college can introduce you to a wide variety of people．Language courses often encourage students to carry on conversations with each other in the language being learned．(5)A．It's hard to get a job without speaking English．B．This can be a great way to break the ice with new people．C．And the Internet makes such communication fast and easy．D．For many people，learning English can broaden their employment opportunities．E．Reading novels，watching movies and listening to music in English can also be helpful．F．One of the primary benefits is that it is often considered the language of global business．G．It is much easier for you to explore these regions and more easily communicate with the locals．11.

安徽省桐城中学2019-2020学年高二第四次周练英语试题一、阅读理解 (本大题共15小题，共30.0分)How to make friendsChoosing friendsBefore you make friends，you have to decide who you want to be your friends．Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things as they do．That doesn't mean you have to be exactly like each other，just，that you enjoy some of the same things．Think about your favorite things to do and try to talk to your classmates at lunch or rest about your hobbies．You are sure to find at least one person who's excited about the same things that excite and interest you，too．Making friends●The quickest way to make a friend is to smile．When you smile，people think you are friendly and easy to talk to．It may not be easy at first to smile．But you can practice smiling in front of a mirror．When you look at yourself in the mirror，think if you'd rather talk to your smiling face or your usual scared or angry face．●One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about them．Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you．Doesn't it make you want to talk to him？●Ask your new friends questions about themselves．It's the only way to get to know what they're like and it's the only way they'll know that you are interested in them．●Make sure you have something to add to the conversation，too．When someone asks you a question，do have an answer for them．There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a shrug（耸肩）for an answer．ActivitiesAfter you've made a friend who shares the same interests with you，it's always fun to plan activities together that you'll both enjoy．Inviting a friend to your house after school is a great way to make your friendship closer．If you know a game your friend likes to play，you can plan to do that together．When you play a computer game，one person is always left sitting with nothing to do but watch．Not fun．1. Before you make friends with someone，make sure ______ ．A. both of you are exactly like each otherB. both of you enjoy some of the same interestsC. you have talked to him or her at lunch or rest about your hobbiesD. you have little in common with each other2. When you want to make friends with someone，you should do all the following except ______ ．A. smiling at him or her beforetalkingB. starting a conversation firstC. asking some questions about him or herD. giving a shrug instead of an answer3. To make your friendship last long，you shouldn't ______ ．A. do something that interests both of you togetherB. invite your friend to your house at weekendsC. be always doing something by yourself with your friend left doing nothingD. play basketball together in your free time．One of the main challenges facing many countries is how to maintain their identity in the face of globalization and the growing multi-language trend．"One of the main reasons for economic failure in many African countries is the fact that，with a few important exceptions，mother-tongue education is not practiced in any of the independent African states．" said Neville Alexander，Director of the Project for the Study of Alternative Education in South Africa at the University of Cape Town．In response to the spread of English and the increased multi-language trends arising from immigration，many countries have introduced language laws in the last decade．In some，the use of languages other than the national language is banned in public spaces such as advertising posters．One of the first such legal provisions（规定）was the 1994 "Toubon law" in France，and the idea has been copied in many countries since then．Such efforts to govern language use are often considered as futile by language experts，who are well aware of the difficulty in controlling fashions in speech and know from research that language switching among bilinguals is a natural process．It is especially difficult for native speakers of English to understand the desire to maintain the "purity" of a language by law．Since the time of Shakespeare，English has continually absorbed foreign words into its own language．English is one of the most mixed and rapidly changing languages in the world，but that has not been a barrier to acquiring superiority andpower．Another reason for the failure of many native English speakers to understand the role of the state regulation is that it has never been the Anglo-Saxon way of doing things．English has never had a state-controlled authority for the language，similar，for example，to the Academic Francaise in France．The need to protect national languages is，for most western Europeans，a recent phenomenon-------especially the need to ensure that English does not unnecessarily take over too many fields．Public communication，education and new ways of communication promoted by technology，may be key fields to defend．4. Neville Alexander believes that ______ ．A. mother-tongue education is not practiced in all African countriesB. globalization has resulted in the economic failure of AfricaC. globalization has led to the rise of multi-language trendD. lack of mother-tongue education can lead to economicfailure5. The underlined word "futile" （in paragraph 2）most probably means " ______ "．A. workableB. practicalC. uselessD. unnecessary6. What can we infer from the last paragraph？______A. English has taken over fields like public communication and education．B. Many aspects of national culture are threatened by thespread of English．C.

安徽省安庆市桐城市2019-2020高一下学期周练九考试英语试卷 Word版含答案

英语试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共12小题，共30.0分）AAs the summer travel season rolls in，prices at the gas pump are usually going in the wrong direction for our wallets．That's when drivers become more concerned about how to squeeze（挤，榨）the most miles from their fuel（燃料）dollars and keep their cars running their best．To help you stay in the know，here are some common questions that our auto-experts often get asked about gas mileage and related topics：What if I need to carry stuff on my car's roof？Carrying things on the roof hurts fuel economy．When tested a 2013 Honda Accord at a steady 65 mph①，it got 42mpg②with nothing on the roof．Adding even an empty bike rack（架子）dropped the mileage by 5 mpg．And with two bikes on the roof，gas mileage dropped to 27 mpg．Does running the A/C hurt fuel economy compared with opening the windows？It depends on how hard the air-conditioning system has to work．When we measured thefuel-economy difference，we found that fuel use with the A/C running went up with higher outside temperatures．At 55℉，there were unnoticeable differences．But when we measured again on days when the temperature was in the low 70s and high 80s，we got fewer miles per gallon with the A/C on．How far can I go when my low-fuel warning light comes on？There is no set rule，but most cars have a reserve of between 1 and 2 gallons of gas when the light goes on，or enough to travel about 40 miles or so at a moderate speed．To maximize those last couple of gallons，we suggest slowing down and maintaining an unchanged pace．Can I improve gas mileage by installing a special air filter（过滤器）？With modern cars，changing your air filter probably won't improve your fuel economy．When we tested a car to see whether a dirty air filter hurt its gas mileage because of reduced air intake，we found that the car's fuel economy wasn't hurt．The engine's computer automatically made up for the restricted airflow by reducing fuel use to maintain the right air/fuel proportion．We expect similar results from any air-filter change．① mph：mile per hour ②mpg：mile per gallon1.The passage aims to give answers to questions related to ______ ．A. how to save fuelB. what fuel drivers can useC. how to keep cars working wellD. what mileage is most suitable for a car2.It is suggested in the passage that ______ ．A. a special air filter be installed to improve air intakeB. the engine's computer be updated as often as possibleC. drivers carry an empty bike rack on the roof just in caseD. cars move at a fixed low speed with a warning of low fuel3.At which temperature is there a most noticeable difference in fuel economy between running A/Cand opening the window？______A. 40℉B. 51℉C. 55℉D. 73℉BSpending Christmas in a foreign country can be a truly eye-opening experience，especially since it's easy to believe that as a worldwide festival，most countries probably celebrate it in a fairly similar manner．Being from the UK，Christmas for me means spending time with family and friends，exchanging presents，eating and drinking，and，of course，hiding from the cold．In Colombia，however，Christmas is viewed much more as a time which devotes itself to religion．With celebrations beginning on 7 December，Columbia is recognized as having the longest Christmas celebrations period in the world．The celebrations generally begin in the evening with the lighting of candles，either in the streets，parks or outside people's homes．Cities are lit up by candles，as this day marks the beginning of the Christmas period．Although decorations have been up since early November，another tradition in Colombia is that during the nine days before Christmas，family members and friends meet up to pray，sing songs and share traditional foods at home．Probably the biggest surprise for me has been the music people listen to during the Christmas period．At first，you could easily mistake these songs for the classic salsa，which is played all year round．However，after asking a Colombian if it really felt like Christmas music，they explained to me that the songs are loved more for the memories they symbolize than for the way they sound，and that Colombia has been through so many dark periods in history，it was important to hold on to the good memories of years gone past．Being in a country like Colombia during this festive period has taught me that you don't need to be religious to take part in these Christmas traditions．4.What's the authors opinion of Christmas？______A. It isn't a global festival．B. It isn't a time for being alone．C. It is mainly devoted to religion．D. It's celebrated only in some places．5.What can we learn about the Christmas music？______A. It is celebrated in the same way as in the UK．B. It is celebrated mainly as a religious festival．C. It is celebrated for nine days or so．D. It is celebrated with lanterns and fireworks．6.What do Colombians do during the Christmas celebration period？______A. Enjoy traditional foods．B. Go to the church together．C. Learn abut home decorations．D. Have a one-month-long holiday．7.Colombians love the songs mainly because ______ ．A. they sound extremely wonderfulB. they express best wishes for the futureC. they represent good memories of the pastD. they have been passed down for generationsCRumors（谣言）：we've all heard some and we've all spread some．In more traditional times they shook entire families．Today，they circulate differently because the way we share information has also changed．The fact is that rumors have great potential to upset things，whether socially or personally．We don't enjoy being on the receiving end of one，since they usually don't have good intentions．They are somewhat veiled（掩饰的）messages．Normally rumors are oral messages：word of mouth．The paradox（自相矛盾）is that there is no evidence to support rumors，but the more people share it，the more they see it as true．To finish defining rumors，we think that they follow certain very clear laws．Secrecy：The source is unknown．There is also a proven phenomenon that human beings usually forget the source of a message before they forget its content．Certainty：We hardly question rumors simply because of the mental effort involved．On the other hand，no one likes to doubt a person who convinces us that the information they spread is true．Change：It acts like a tree．New rumors branch out to fill in the gaps left by the initial rumor．Another property of rumors is that they tend to become viral．Each receiver is at the same time a potential transmitter of the information．The receiver often adds their own opinion．Their manner and tone of transmitting it also changes it．How can we end rumors？The answer is as simple as it is impossible：preventing people from communicating．A more realistic response is equally difficult，although less than the first one．It is that we should be critical of the information we receive．We should ask ourselves if the source is reliable．Ask （if possible）the person you heard it from whether they also trust the information．We should also think about if the rumor benefits someone，and if that someone started the rumor．One rumor to be especially cautious of is a rumor about groups relatively unable to defend themselves．That's why we say，"history is always told by the victors．" The first payment the defeated must make is to accept the victor's version of the story．8.What's the author's attitude towards rumors？______A. Critical．B. Positive．C. Approving．D. Cautious．9.What can we learn about rumors？______A. We have all heard some and believed them．B. We're happy to be the receiving end of them．C. They may have negative influence on society．D. They often hide good intentions in the messages．10.How are rumors like trees？______A. Rumors keep changing，just as trees change their color．B. Rumors are deeply rooted in reality，like tree roots in the earth．C. New rumors have gaps，like the space between tree branches．D. New rumors grow out of the original，like branches out of a trunk．11.What does the underlined word "viral" in Paragraph 4 probably mean？______A. Something easily spreadB. Something acceptableC. Something easily defended．D. Something beneficial．12.Which of the following may the author agree with？______A. It is easy to prevent people from spreading rumors．B. People are often active in judging the rumors critically．C. We should think about the hidden message of the rumors．D. Stories told by the victors are usually better worth trusting．二、单选题（本大题共10小题，共10.0分）13.He Ge is a very excellent actor，and the films and TV plays _____ he acts attracted many youngpeople．（）A. thatB. in whichC. with whichD. what14.The Nobel Peace Prize is given to such people _____ have made great contributions tomaintaining global peace and stability．（）A. thatB. whomC. asD. who15.-Where is your new home now？16.-In the new developed zone.But I______downtown for five years.A. have livedB. had livedC. livedD. was living17.Unluckily，when I dropped in，Dr．Smith _____，so we only had time for a fewwords．（）A. just leftB. was just leavingC. has just leftD. had just left18._____ work has been done to improve our living environment．（）A.

Day in and day out, Mr. Tay and his team prepare, cook, pack and deliver the food to various parts of the island.His journey started when one of his neighbors, Lisa, asked him to collect vegetables and give them away at Bukit Ho Swee, a poor neighborhood, and thus, he continued to do so for a period of time. During one of these visits, his wife noticed that the elderly folk did not take the vegetables. Asked why, one replied that she could not cook, so she only ate the rice delivered to her. Mrs. Tay then offered to cook for her, and it was that single meal that spurred Willing Hearts, which has served about 650,000 meals ever since.The soup kitchen sees many volunteers, some of whom are new, while others have been around since the organization’s early days. They learn how to cook, interact with people from all walks of life, pick up different languages, gain greater knowledge about social issues, and most importantly, they will form a strong tie with one another. Through Willing Hearts, Mr. Tay hopes to make “the country’s backyard” known to the younger generation, to allow them to see and experience firsthand what goes on behind closed doors.As a non-profit organization, Willing Hearts depends heavily on donations and food collections. However, this does not trouble Mr. Tay. He believes that you have to let things flow ingradually, and not be stopped by concerns which create an unnecessary amount of stress. He calls the volunteers of Willing Hearts the organization’s eyes and ears, as they are always on the lookout for the poor to lend a hand.4．What does the underlined word “spurred” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Stood for.B．Led to.C．Belonged to.D．Depended on. 5．What does Mr. Tay intend to show to the younger generation?A．The true life of poor people.B．The advantage of social life.C．The way of gaining knowledge.D．The firsthand experience of volunteers. 6．Which of the following can be used to describe Mr. Tay?A．Showy and generous.B．Caring and demanding.C．Creative and humorous.D．Hardworking and positive.7．What is the suitable title of the text?A．A Couple Helping Others B．V olunteering Benefiting a LotC．Willing Hearts Lending a Hand D．A Tie Strengthening V olunteersPeople can see more and more information about light steel villas (别墅). Their style is very beautiful, which is very attractive for many people who long for high quality of life, especially young people.However, many people have concerns about the safety and comfort of light steel villas. After all, compared with ordinary building structures, the building structure of light steel villas looks obviously “thin”. For those who are preparing to build light steel villas, they need to have a real understanding of light steel villas before making choices.In fact, depending on advanced technology, the overall structure of the house is stronger and safer than the ordinary building structure. In addition, thanks to the light weight, the light steel villa is relatively good in seismic (抗震的) performance. What’s more, because the walls of the light steel villa are thinner, compared with the houses under the ordinary building structure, the actual indoor living area is increased, and there are more space for doing activities.At present, most of the light steel villas on the market are based on two or three floors. If people only intend to build a one-floor house, then it is still recommended that they give up light steel structure and choose ordinary building structure to build houses. After all, the beautifuladvantages of light steel structure cannot be reflected, while the cost is relatively high. However, if you plan to build more than two floors of buildings with enough planned money, light steel villas are still recommended.It must be pointed out that people must avoid blindly focusing on low prices. To know that “good things are not cheap” at any time is an iron law, otherwise it is easy to suffer big losses. 8．What is many people’s concern about light steel villas?A．They don’t look good.B．They are hard to build.C．They cost too much to build.D．They don’t seem strong enough.9．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A．The advantages of light steel villas.B．The appearance of light steel villas.C．The building process of light steel villas.D．The methods of choosing light steel villas.10．Whom is the light steel villa suitable for?A．A person longing for living in a traditional house.B．A person expecting to own a one-floor building.C．A person wanting to spend less money building a house.D．A person intending to spend enough money on a two-floor house.11．In which part of a website can this text be found?A．Culture.B．Industry news.C．Nature.D．Family life.Gifts are more than just an economic exchange of goods. They signal things about the giver, receiver and their relationship. It’s a sort of language that lets us communicate without words. Use the following little tricks to make gift-giving perfect.Aesthetics (美学) of a gift shouldn’t be ignored and neither should presentation be. All the time and energy you spend picking the perfect thing for your receiver will fall short if you do. A gift should delight. It should be unique and easy on the eyes. So receivers often prefer appearance over function. This is why gift stores are filled with such gifts. These items are often low in their usefulness yet they make most gifts.The price isn’t necessarily a priority. Even costly items can be considered as cheapsometimes. It’s better to pick an item from the top of an inexpensive sort than one at the bottom of an expensive sort. Even if you’re paying the same for both choices, the former will be received well.A gift that feels heavier tends to be considered as of higher quality. Giving someone a hardcover book is better than giving them a paperback as a gift. You may also package it in a relatively heavy box. Anyway, pick items that aren’t too light.Don’t present your gift without the wrapping (包装). It shows effort and devotion. Presentation expresses special thought on behalf of the giver. When they receive a gift, receivers process the exchange and analyze the giver in terms of thoughtfulness, which is communicated through gift presentation. If you want your receiver to think of you as thoughtful, make sure you wrap it in a good wrapping paper. Bad presentation can ruin a great gift. So it matters making a present more attractive to your receiver.12．What kind of gifts are mostly sold in shops?A．Strange objects.B．Eye-catching items.C．Useful things.D．High-cost pieces.13．What can be learnt from Paragraph 3?A．Never choose any expensive gif.B．The more expensive a gift is, the better.C．Two gifts at a time are always better than one.D．The best gift in the cheap kind is a better choice.14．Which book will make a good gift?A．A hardcover book.B．A paperback.C．One in a light box.D．One without wrapping.15．What does a gift with good wrapping reflect?A．The giver is generous.B．The receiver is special.C．The giver is thoughtful.D．The receiver is attractive.More and more people are making eco choices on the road. Follow these tips to get your next trip off to the greenest start possible.Pack lightLighter luggage is the first step to reduce your travel footprint. Pack quick-dry, washable items that you can mix and match. 16 .

安徽省桐城市2019-2020学年高一下学期第四次周考英语试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共11小题，共28.0分）AHelp Hermit Crabs Hermit crabs are nature's recyclers．They eat waste and help keep oceans and shores clean．Unlike other crabs，the hermit crab has a thin outer shell over its soft tail．This makes the hermit crab easy prey for hungry predators （天敌）．Hermit crabs stay safe by living in old seashells． A hermit crab is picky （狡猾）；it tries on many shells until it finds one that fits just right．In recent years，however，many hermit crabs have had trouble finding their perfect homes．What is the problems There are not enough shells to go around!One reason for the seashell shortage is that ocean water is not as clean as it once was．This has caused chemical changes to sea water．Some sea animals，like snails，are affected by these changes．Now there are fewer snails making shells．People visiting the beach often take shells home as souvenirs （纪念品）．This is another problem．Other people even take shells for their own pet hermit crabs! They do not realize that hermit crabs in the wild need those shells too．Now people are working to solve this hermit crab housing shortage．They are teaching beach-Boers to leave seashells where they belong--at the seashore! Some people even make fake seashells that they hope the hermit crabs will like．For example， a group called Project Shelter invited people who visited their website to create different designs for hermit crab shells．These designers had a lot to consider．What kind of material should be used to build a seashells．The material must be light enough for the hermit crab to carry，but strong enough to protect the crab from predators．The man-made shells could not contain glue or any other substance （物质）that might harm a hermit crab．Another challenge with building a hermit crab home was the opening to the shell．Too big would mean the crab would not feel safe．Too small would be uncomfortable，and the crab would not want to move in．The Project Shelter shells are placed in the wild for hermit crabs to find．Lucky hermit crabs can move into these new dream homes．1.Where can hermit crabs stay safe？______A. In different old seashells．B. Behind the waste they'll eat．C. In their own thin outer shells．D. Under the stones at the seashore．2.According to the passage，what should be put in the webs？______Para.1 The problem is…Para.2 The reasonsfor …Para.3 （2）______Para.4 Theconsiderof…A.

The designs of websites．3.What does the underlined word "fake" in Para． 3 mean？______A. man-madeB. perfectC. hardD. comfortable4.What is the passage mainly about？______A. The Project Shelter Group．B. The shortage of the seashell．C. New homes for hermit crabs．D. The recyclers of the nature．BBenito Juarez，a poor Indian boy，was twelve years old when he left his village home in December 1818．Benito walked forty-one miles to the city of Oaxaca，high in the mountains of Mexico．When he heard the Spanish spoken by the city people，Benito didn't know what they were saying．First，Benito became a servant for a wealthy gentleman，Serer Maza．Soon，he went to work for Antonio Salanueva， a church （教会）librarian．Antonio repaired and copied the library books，keeping them in good shape．Benito became his helper and his housekeeper．Antonio loved to teach．Benito soon became his student as well as his servant．With the help of Antonio，Benito learned to speak，read，and write Spanish．At that time in Mexico，many people believed that Indians were not smart enough to read or learn．Antonio knew that was not true．Indians had been prevented from learning by a lack of schools．The first Spanish missionaries （传教士）who came to Mexico had educated the native people．In fact，churches from Spain had built the first college on the North American continent （大陆）for the Indians．As more Spanish came to Mexico，however，the Indian children were crowded out of the schools．Benito was a good and bright student，so Antonio developed a plan for him．In1821，when Benito was fifteen，Antonio decided to enroll him in a school for boys．Antonio taught Benito what he needed to pass the entrance test for the school．Benito became a student at the college．His studies were difficult，and he was teased because he was the only Indian student there．He succeeded in spite of these challenges．Later，as the laws changed，Benito was able to attend a public college with other Indians．Benito Juarez continued his education and became a lawyer and，much later，the President of Mexico from 1861 to 1872．He led the Mexican people to victory over the French，who tried to rule Mexico，and fought for the rights of Indians．He is one of the great heroes in Mexican history．Born in an Indian village in Mexico Left homeandwalked 41miles toOaxacaBegan hiseducationat aseminaryBecamegovernorof the staleof OaxacaEscaped toNewOrleansafterGeneralSantaAnnaseized thegovermentReturnedto Mexicoand helpedtherevolutionoverthrowSantaAnnaBecameMinisterof Justice5.____ Died in Mexico City 1806 1818 1821 1847 1853 1855 1857 1861 1872 （1）When Benitofirst arrived in the city of Oaxaca，he ______ ．A. lost touch with his familyB. got the language problemC. studied in a church libraryD. lived in the mountain （2）According to the passage，Antonio was a ______ ．A．goodteacher B．rich gentleman C．strict housekeeper D．helpful villager （3）In Mexico，many Indian children couldn't get an education，because ______ ．A．they were less smart B．there were not enough schools C．there were too many native people D．they were too poor to go to school （4）What should be put into the timeline？______ A．Became a lawyer．B．Attended a public college．C．Be the only Indian student．D．Elected to be the President．6.What is probably the best title of the passage？______A. A young student in Mexico．B. Fighting for the rights．C. A bright Mexican educator．D. Born to be a servant．CFishy Weather Conditions Laj amanu，Australia，is a dry little town，sitting right on the edge of the Tanami desert．Can you imagines How surprised were people when live fish rained down on them from a dark gray cloudy．It happens that there are similar cases in England and Honduras．How do clouds make fishy．The simple answer is that they don't．There is a particular weather phenomenon （现象）called a waterspout．A waterspout is just like a tornado，only it forms above oceans，lakes，or rivers．Like a tornado，a waterspout moves in a circle at high speeds．When it moves above the water，it tends to carry the fish with it，as well as frogs or other small plants or animals．Scientists couldn't work it out at first．To make matters stranger still，the fish in Honduras were very much alive when they rained down to the ground，but they were all blind．In England and Australia，it rained fish and snakes，and none were blind．It was difficult to puzzle out，but the blind fish gave them a place to start．Scientists knew that some fish that lived in deep，underground caves with no light sources often lost their eyesight．So when blind fish rained down on Honduras，scientists began to connect some dots．Clearly，these particular fish were pulled from an underground water source by force．It has rained fish on every continent，and each time，people have tried in various ways to explain this strange phenomenon．Historically，villagers thought the "fishes from the heavens" might be answers to prayers for food．Others suggested that floods overran river banks and oceans，leaving the fish on the city streets．No scientist had actually seen the rain as it occurred，only the fish left on the ground．But in 1990， a National Geographic team happened to be in Honduras when the Rain of Fishes began．They recorded what was happening and made history by finally proving that the fish really did fall from the sky．This huge breakthrough wasn't just a spot of good luck．It changed thousands of years of myths and legends into true stories and provided scientific explanations for how fish came to live in deep caves．It explained ancient cave paintings and shed new light on how species have spread over time．It turned out to be a lot more than just a little fishy weather．7.According to the passage， a waterspout ______ ．A. can make animals blindB. is difficult to catch on filmC. can carry items with itD. is a dangerous sea creature8.The blind fish made the scientists start to think that ______ ．A. raining fish was a warning of natural disastersB. animals changed to match their environmentsC. the weather system differed from place to placeD. the waterspout theory seemed more possible9.From Para． 5 and 6，we can learn ______ ．A. how species in the area changed over timeB. the importance of finding the truth behind the eventC. that the discovery cleared up many different scientific theoriesD. how the understanding of waterspouts affected other areas of science10.The underlined sentence in last Para．probably suggests that ______ ．A. waterspouts came to be a center of scientific researchB. the scientists were fortunate to have made their discoveriesC. hard work went into determining the cause for the raining fishD. the scientists relied heavily on unusual events to drive their studies11.The author writes the passage to ______ ．A. describe the magic phenomenonB. explain what caused the fishy weatherC. persuade people to protect the environmentD. encourage people to do scientific research二、完形填空（本大题共15小题，共15.0分）A Wonderful Christmas Gift Ann and her mother had lived in a small cottage．Christmas was so close，and so was her birthday．Ann wished she could get a new(12)with lace as a wonderful Christmas gift．All her friends would be getting new dresses．(13)Ann did not want to ask her Mom for that．She knew how hard her mom worked to make both ends meet．Maybe she could make a(14)maybe Santa Claus would come，even though she knew that Santa Claus is just an imaginary character．It was not just gift that(15)Ann．It was her mother．Nowadays she was working overtime and looked pale and worn out．The days passed and soon it was Christmas Eve．In everyone's house，except Ann's，a Christmas tree adorned （装饰）the living room．In the(16)there hung the baked cakes andturkey．But(17)lovely was being cooked in Ann's house．Every child went to bed eagerly waiting for the lovely gifts that he or she would(18)the next day．Ann went to bed with a(19)heart．She knew that there would be no gifts for her．Ann wished with her whole heart that at least this time she would get a gift from Santa Claus．Ann slowly drifted off to sleep．She dreamt of Santa riding in the snow on his reindeers．Ring．…Ring．…Ann jumped，hearing alarm．She suddenly remembered that it was Christmas morning．Without much hope she looked(20)there were any gifts for her．Wonder of wonders!
