Crowds lined the streets, cheering and waving. Fry rode west for 90 miles at full speed. He then passed a leather bag full of letters to another rider. Eventually a chain of riders carried the letters across nearly 2,000 miles of wilderness, and the Pony Express was born.Between California and the rest of the U.S. lay a vast wilderness. Mail service was slow and often delayed. As war among the states seemed likely, people wanted news more quickly.In December 1859, William Russell, owner of a transport company, decided to meet that need. He and partners William Waddell and Alexander Majors worked constantly for months. They selected a route from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California. Then they purchased 400 horses, hired workers and set up relay stations (导站)every 10 to 15 miles. Riders would change horses at these stations, and every 90 to 120 miles a new rider would take over.Shortly before Jonny Fry set out, another Pony Express rider set off from Sacramento for St. Joseph. These first deliveries reached their destinations in close to the 10 days Russell had promised.But the route was far from safe. On April 18, 1860, a rider’s horse stumbled (绊倒)and fell on the rider, killing him. Riders faced rivers, mountains, extreme temperatures-and very unfriendly natives.In May 1860,tensions between the settlers and Native Americans turned into fighting. Native Americans attacked several Pony Express stations, forcing some of them to close temporarily.Despite the risks, the Pony Express lost only one delivery during its one and a half years in operation. And when Abraham Lincoln was elected president, the Pony Express carried the news to California in only five days. It also spread news of the beginning of America's Civil War.The Pony Express service ended in October 1861 after a telegraph line across the U.S. was completed.Yet the riders' courage and accomplishments still hold a place in legend(传奇).56. The passage is mainly about the _____ of the Pony Express.A. functionB.influenceC. historyD. operation57. To _____, William Russell decided to set up the Pony Express.A. shorten the time of sending mailB. deliver mail farther and more safelyC. meet people's different needsD. help people keep in contact in war58. What might Russell have promised about the first deliveries?A. To make the destinations closer.B. To make the deliveries within 10 days.C. To ensure the deliveries with two riders.D. To complete the deliveries before the war.59. What can be learned from the passage?A. The Pony Express had an insignificant position in the development of mail service.B. The fighting between the settlers and Native Americans ended the Pony Express.C. The Pony Express became successful as a result of the dangers on the route.D. The Pony Express not only delivered mail but spread news as well.(B)Please Choose Cloud ServicesFinding the Cloud service can be difficult as there are so many available.Consumers need to consider and compare each service’s features, storage possibilities, free space and best price. You may be unsure, or you do not know where to begin. Trying every Cloud service would take a lot of time and work. But, the website might help.CloudDrop-box Google-Drive One-DriveBoxBest For LightweightUsersTeams AndCollaborationDevotedWindowsUsersEnterpriseSolutionsFree Storage Space2GB15GB15GB10GBCheapest PremiumOption1TB100GB100GB100GB One valuable feature is the protection of digital files, including photos, videos, documents, music and more. If the worst happens and your computer crashes, or gets lost or damaged, your files can still be found in the Cloud.Cloud services let you access your files from almost anywhere. No need to worry about a file stored on your computer when you are away from your desk. If you have an Internet connection, you can open your files from any computer, or from a phone, when they are stored using a Cloud service.Using a Cloud service makes sharing files easier. If you send documents to a group using emails, you may then wonder which version everyone is working with. When sharing files using a Cloud service, everyone will see the same document and the latest version.The first thing to consider is the amount of storage space you need. Check how much space you are currently using on your computer and mobile devices. If your computer or phone is filled with photos and you have little free space, you may want to move your photos to the Cloud. Some Cloud services are free. But, if you need a lot of space, you will probably need one that costs money.Even if everyone you have ever met is a Windows user, you still probably want a Cloud service that works with many platforms. You might become friends with anAndroid user or start a job with a company that computes on Apple!60. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Google-Drive users can obtain 100GB for free.B. Most Cloud services can send files to both the Cloud and the local computer.C. It's hard to transfer your file when you turn on the computer if it is stored in the Cloud.D. Never worry about finding your files in the Clouds if the computer system crashes.61. What will you have to do if you need more space to store more files in the Cloud?A. To use your own Cloud services.B. To share Cloud space with others.C. To spend money buying space.D. To buy the latest version of the service.62. How can consumers find the Cloud service that suits them best?A. By learning more information about the space occupied by files.B. By comparing Cloud’s function, storage, available space and prices.C. By sending files to a group of people via e-mail inquiring about the Cloud service.D.By making friends with Android users who use Apple computers.(C)Every day, Lucy Dong and her best friend Amy Zhu wake at 7 a.m. -- 7.10 a.m.If they are lucky---rush through their breakfast of steamed buns and noodles, and head off to what may be the best schooling system in the world.The 10-year-olds, who are natives of Shanghai, study in 35-minute bursts from around 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a small break for lunch -- and a class meeting --- sandwiched in the middle.Outside school hours, the girls' lives are lots of extra-curricular activities: English class, flute class, drumming class, handwriting class, calligraphy class, Taekwondo training, modelling lessons and choir practice.Shanghai was crowned --- for the second time …the champion of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA., which compares the maths, reading and science skills of some 510,000 secondary school students around the world).Some experts question the value of comparing cities and countries. Others point out that Shanghais relatively well-funded schools and well-paid teachers are not representative of the Chinese education system as a whole.Even so, the latest results are likely to see more and more educators flock east in search of the mega-city's magic formula.Professor Kong Lingshuai of the College of Education at Shanghai Normal University has studied the city'sPISA successes. He says that the secret is a mix of "traditional elements and modern elements". The former is related to the high expectations of "tiger" parents, and a belief in Chinese children from a young age that effort is crucial to gaining a good education. The "modern elements" include Shanghai's willingness to constantly adapt its curriculum and teaching practices; its focus on improving under-achieving schools by pairing them with those that excel; its openness to foreign ideas; and the introduction of performance-related pay.An obsession with training has also been the key, says Prof. Kong. As of last year, new teachers have to undergo a standardized, one-year training course before starting in the classroom. Once qualified, they are required to complete at least 240 hours' training in their first five years, including online learning, paper reading, essay writing and so on. Teachers are also encouraged to attend each other's classes to promote a culture of "idea sharing, exchanging and positive competition".Outsiders often dismiss China's education system as a pressure-cooker-style craze of exams that places too much emphasis on rote-learning and does little to stimulate creativity. But in Shanghai at least, that may be starting to change. Authorities are attempting to move away from testing that relies too heavily on memorizing facts and figures, and some schools are also giving students more time to play, rather than just study.63. The author mentions Lucy Dong and Amy Zhu in the first 3 paragraphs to ________.A. praise the industriousness of these two girlsB. give readers the whole picture of Chinese educationC. illustrate what education in Shanghai looks likeD. criticize the burden the education brings on them64. Why do some experts challenge the result that Shanghai ranked 1st in PISA test?A. Because the value of PISA, which only tests 510,000 students globally, is cast doubt on.B.Because Shanghai has drawn more attention and resources from the central government.C. Because only maths, reading and science skills are compared in PISA test, which is not enough.D. Because Shanghai has a better system of financial support for schools as well as for teachers.65. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "dismiss"in the last paragraph?A. To consider something inferior.B. To stop thinking about something.C. To give the credit for something.D. To claim the features of something.66. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Strict parents contribute little to the academic success of their children.B. Students have more free time to spend on their interest across China.C. Many education researchers are getting to Shanghai to study the phenomenon.D. Under-achieving schools are usually substituted by those academically superior schools.(D)A. Holidays are when my family gathers and has a good time together,B. School education has civilized me with a mind for peace and calm.C. My parents raised me with a lot of beliefs that have had an effect on who I am today.D. Summer is the time when we always organize some special events as a big family.E. However, I know that it is important to follow the golden rule and to treat others with dignity and respect.F. We take care of each other and try to treat others with respect.What Makes Me "Me"?My culture comes from where I am from and where I was raised. I am an American.I was born and raised in Alaska. My ethnic background is German, English, and Scottish. Culture is all about family. It is a family's belief systems, the cultural traditions that are celebrated, and the special holidays and events that occur in the year._____67_____These are the beliefs that don't just belong to my culture, but they come straight from the values of my family. I believe that women are more intelligent than men because my mother is a strong woman. I was raised to believe that through hard work I could become successful and have a good life. I strive to do this every day and to be good at my life and my jobs. I'm not really religious. _____ 68_____ I believe that if you are a good person to others you will be rewarded for it in many ways.There are a lot of cultural traditions that my family has. Some are from my cultural background and some are from the place where I was raised. I raise my son to have manners and to be well behaved. I raise him to know that hard work is important and that he is expected to put his best effort into things._____69_____We gather every summer in Haines so that all the cousins can grow up together. Birthdays were always important events while growing up. My mom was excited to celebrate every holiday. Trick or treating on Halloween, hiding baskets on Easter, passing out cards to classmates on Valentine's Day, wearing green on St. Patrick's Day, and of course loads of presents under the tree on Christmas morning. My parents always made holidays a big deal so now my son also gets to be excited for them every year.My culture makes me a person that celebrates life. My family has a lot of good friends and we are usually a good part of the community. ______70____ We like to go outdoors and have adventures. My belief systems, cultural traditions, and special events have made me a happy person who is fun to be around and who can have a positive impact on others.Keys31-35 JAFKE36-40 GCBHICloze41-45 ACDCB46-50 ADBDA 51-55 ACBDAReadingA:56-59 CABD B:60-62 DCB C:63-66 CDAC D:67-70 CEAF。

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Reading is your easiest way to “feel” English. It is not painful, but helps a lot. There are too many materials for you to read and you must select those you find useful, appropriate and have interest in. besides printed materials, you can also do Web reading. Newspapers and magazines are highly 16 for extensive reading, because the things reported in them are always changing, so you should never get 17 of that.You can learn English quickly by seeing English films 18 , or watching English television and videos daily. Pick shows that interest you and try to imitate how they pronounce the words.Also, trying to find people to practice English. Language is for communication, which is an interactive 19 . The best practice is conversation. You should socialize with those skillful in the language. The more you speak, the more comfortable and 20 you are with English. Of course, you can also take some intensive 21 through special tutorials, in which some of your problems, would be 22 and you are taught some more.However, you have to be 23 in finding where you “learn” your English. Someone who misleads you by giving wrong guidance would spoil your English learning. You could pick up a lot of bad 24 and incorrect grammar from TV or newspapers/magazines that go ratherinformal sometimes. If you want to get better at English, you should fight against those 25 and chronic habits and get them fixed.六、完形填空It is interesting to observe the way in which children so often react against their parents’ ideas, while at the same time keeping their parents’ characters. That is to say, the children grow up to have different 26 from their parents, yet to have 27 personalities. There is a(n) 28 going on in the toy world at present over whether children should be 29 to have war toys. I do not believe in encouraging war toys, but I don’t see any 30 in forbidding them when I think of the 31 of my friend Henry. Henry is the son of 32 parents who were totally opposed to war. He was never allowed toy soldiers as a boy, never allowed guns.Henry grew up and went into the 33 , becoming a first-class soldier and 34 all sorts of honors. And yet there is a gentleness about Henry which shows a 35 personality. There is a sympathetic element about the man 36 I think must have come from his family.37 doing things differently from our parents, a lot of the spirit gets passed on. Parents in all conscience have to 38 their children what they believe to be right; but it is not your ideas that make the children 39 your example. Perhaps the best way to teach one’s child gentleness is not to 40 toy guns, but to be gentle in one’s own everyday life. 26.A.views B.lives C.purposes D.qualities 27.A.different B.same C.no D.similar 28.A.fight B.argument C.saying D.speech 29.A.admitted B.offered C.encouraged D.recognized 30.A.point B.idea C.proof D.possibility 31.A.adventure B.youth C.experience D.past 32.A.rude B.strict C.cold-hearted D.cruel 33.A.factory B.army C.farm D.university 34.A.finding B.winning C.seizing D.occupying 35.A.natural B.silent C.peaceful D.mysterious36.A.who B.whom C.which D.where 37.A.Because of B.Despite C.According to D.Owing to 38.A.teach B.show C.wish D.provide 39.A.follow B.accept C.undertake D.select 40.A.allow B.destroy C.purchase D.forbid七、阅读理解Born in 1823 in Wales, Alfred Russel Wallace was a man of modest means, but he had a passion for nature and he chose to follow it. He started out collecting insects as a hobby, but eventually his longing for adventure led him to explore the world.Luckily for Wallace, Victorian Britain was discovering an interest in weird and wonderful insects, so the demand from museums and private collections for these beasts was growing. Wallace was able to make a living doing what he loved: collecting beetles and other insects.But his first trip of exploring the world ended in disaster. Wallace proceeded to the Amazon in South America. Its giant forests promised a wealth of new species, sure to put him on the scientific map. The trip took 6 weeks and involved every mode of transport in existence at the time. After four years Wallace set off for home, but his boat caught fire in the middle of the Atlantic. Everyone survived, but Wallace had to watch in despair as his samples went up in flames — including live animals he was bringing home that were trying to jump free of the flames. But he did not let it stop him.In 1854, Wallace set off on another adventure, this time to the Malay Archipelago. Wallace found himself humbled by the new and exciting things he saw. He later recalled: “As I lie listening to these interesting sounds, I think how many besides myself have longed to see with their own eyes the many wonderful and beautiful things which I am daily encountering.”In 1858, Wallace wrote what became known as the “Ternate essay”: a piece of writing that was to change our understanding of life forever. In his essay, Wallace argued that a species would only turn into another species if it was struggling for existence. Henry W. Bates was one of many scientists delighted by the idea of evolution by natural selection. In a letter to Wallace, he wrote: “The idea is like truth itself, so simple and obvious that those who read and understand it will bestruck by its simplicity; and yet it is perfectly original.”41.________ finally caused Wallace to explore the world.A.His strong affection for nature B.His life-long devotion to beasts C.His deep love for adventure D.Increasing demand for insects 42.Which of the following is TRUE about Wallace’s first trip?A.It took him six weeks to explore the Amazon with all kinds of transportation.B.He made a scientific study of a fairly limited number of insects.C.The fire cost him his four years’ collection of animals.D.His passion cooled after the disaster.43.Wallace felt ________on the Malay Archipelago.A.fearless B.lucky C.challenged D.risky 44.Wallace’s idea on evolution of natural selection ________.A.made no sense at that time B.built up a new concept of life C.was too simple to be true D.revealed the origin of nature45.What is TAKARAKKA BUSH RESORT mentioned in this advertisement?A.A modern hotel.B.A national park.C.A wildlife service D.An ideal campsite.46.We can infer from the passage EXCEPT that ________.A.there are bushes around the campgroundB.during the school holidays students only pay lower chargeC.Takarakka Bush Resort has good and various camping facilitiesD.Camping is a favorite activity among the Australian students47.According to the passage we can learn ________ is the most popular.A.unpowered campsites B.powered campsitesC.canvas cabins D.walk-in campingIdeas about polite behavior are different from one culture to another. Some societies, such as America and Australia are mobile and very open, people here change jobs and move house quite often. As a result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time. So it’s normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as personal.On the other hand there are more crowded and less mobile societies where long-term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society put it, it’s no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you don’t want to answer.Cross-cultural differences aren’t just a problem for travelers. but also for the flights that carry them. All flights want to provide the best service, but ideas about good service are different place to place. This can be seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.Some societies have “universalist” cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. “Particularist” societies, on the other hand, also have rules, but they are less important than the society’s unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.This difference can cause problems. A traveler from a particularist society, India, is checking in for a flight in Germany, a country which has a universalist culture. The Indian traveler has too much luggage, but he explains that he has been away from home for a long time and the suitcases are full of presents for his family. He expects that the check-in official will understand his problem and will change the rules for him. The check-in official explains that if he was allowed to have too much luggage, it wouldn’t be fair to the other passengers. But the traveler thinks this is unfair, because the other passengers don’t have his problem.48.Often moving from one place to another makes people like Americans and Australians________.A.like traveling better B.easy to communicate withC.difficult to make real friends D.have a long-term relationship with theirneighbors49.A person from a less mobile society will feel it ________ when a stranger keeps talking to him or her, and asking him or her questions.A.boring B.friendly C.normal D.rough50.In “particularist societies”, ________.A.they have no rules for people to obeyB.people obey the society’s rules completelyC.no one obeys the society’s rules though they haveD.the society’s rules can be changed with different persons or situations51.The writer of the passage thinks that the Indian and the German have different ideas about rules because of different ________.A.interests B.cultures C.habits and customs D.ways of lifeA Garden That’s Just Right for YouHave you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum (总和) of its parts? 52 . But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.● 53Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers (肥料). 54 . However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.●Recall (回忆) your childhood memoriesOur model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that’s not what’s important. It’s our experience of the garden that matters-how being in those gardens made us feel. If you’d like to build a powerful bond with your garden, start by taking some time to recall the gardens of your youth. 55 . Then go outside and work out a plan to translate your childhood memories into your grown-up garden. Have fun.A.Know why you gardenB.It’s delightful to see so many beautiful flowersC.Find a good place for your own gardenD.Still others may simply enjoy being outdoors and close to plantsE.You can produce that kind of magical quality in your own garden, tooF.For each of those gardens, write down the strongest memory you have八、翻译56.他在举止方面是个典型的英国人。

河南省郑州外国语学校2024-2025学年高一上学期第一次月考英语试卷一、阅读理解Amsterdam is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world, famous for its beautiful canals, top art museums, cycling culture and so on. It is the capital city of the Netherlands and often referred to as the “Venice of the North” because of its expansive system of bridges and canals. Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam.Must-See AttractionsMost visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre, which is full of traditional architecture, shopping centers, and coffee shops. You’ll also want to check out Amsterdam’s Museum Quarter in the South District, which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the V ondelpark. The top museums to visit there are the Rijksmusuem, the Ann Frank House, and the Van Gogh Museum.If You Have TimeThere are several other unique districts in Amsterdam, and you should try to explore as many of them as time allows. The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a center for celebrity spotting and nightlife today. The Plantage area has most of the city’s museums and the botanical gardens.Money Saving Tips●Unless you really want to see the tulips(郁金香) blooming, avoid booking between mid-March and mid-May. This is when hotel and flight prices rise.●Look for accommodations in Amsterdam’s South District, where rates are generally cheaper than in the city center.●Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.●Instead of hiring a tour guide, hop on a canal boat. They’re inexpensive and will give youa unique point of view of the city.Check out our homepage to view price comparisons for flights, hotels, and rental cars beforeyou book.1.What can be learned about Amsterdam from this passage?A.The Van Gogh Museum lies in the South District.B.The Canal Ring is a place to attract garden lovers.C.The Old Centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.D.Amsterdam is called the “Venice of the North” because of its location.2.In order to save money in Amsterdam, you can ________.A.arrange a guided tour B.buy train tickets at the counterC.reserve a hotel in the South District D.book flights between mid-March andmid-May3.Where is the passage most probably taken from?A.A magazine.B.An essay.C.A report.D.A website.While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize — which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture — on February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.As head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA), Wang has an office at the Xiangshan campus of the university in Hangzhou. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations. The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors are amazed by the complex architectural space and different building types. The curves (曲线) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional ways to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements (元素).Wang’s works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledge oftraditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture.Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. “That is only evidence that traditions once existed. Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. They think tradition means old things from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created,” he said.The study of traditions should be combined with, practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said.4.Wang’s winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are ________.A.following the latest world trend B.getting international recognitionC.working harder than ever before D.relying on foreign architects5.What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most?A.Its hilly environment.B.Its large size.C.Its unique style.D.Its diverse functions.6.What made Wang’s architectural design a success?A.The mixture of different shapes.B.The balance of East and West.C.The use of popular techniques.D.The harmony of old and new.7.What should we do about Chinese traditions according to Wang?A.Spread them to the world.B.Protect them at museums.C.Teach them in universities.D.Recreate them in practice.Bed rotting — the practice of spending long periods of time just staying under the covers with snacks, screens and other creature comforts — is gaining popularity on social media. Some Generation Z trend followers are now considering it as a form of self-care, but doctors warn too much could be “sign of depression”. Are these extended breaks really wise for one’s mental health — or could they be a cause for concern?Dr. Ryan Sultan, a professor treating many young people, called the bed rotting trend attractive. “In our culture today, with too much to do, too many expectations and too much productivity, many young individuals (个人) are feeling tired and often aren’t getting enough sleep. It’s easy to see why taking time off to lie around is attractive,” Sultan said. “In many ways, this is beneficial. It’s a chance to get away from real-life problems and clear your head beforereturning to life in a better state of mind,” he added.For the downside, however, he said a long-term need or desire for bed rotting could do harm to one’s physical health. Spending too many daytime hours in bed — awake or not — could destroy sleep schedules. Our brains are fine-tuned for sleep in darkness and alertness in light. Lying in bed half-asleep during the day will worsen sleep schedules — once that happens, it is a challenge to fix. It could also lead to blood pressure problems and obesity (肥胖).Long-term need or desire for bed rotting could also be a warning sign of depression, according to a mental health expert. Dr. Marc Siegel, professor of medicine, agreed that while some downtime can be useful in terms of de-stressing and rejuvenation (更新), too much bed rotting is bad. In addition to increasing the risk of depression, it contributes to decreased motivation (动力) as well.Instead of bed rotting, Siegel recommends regular exercise as a better form of de-stressing. While the occasional lazy day can be beneficial, too much could have the opposite effect. If it happens every day, that’s a fairly sensitive test for depression. Those who lack the motivation to get out of bed could also try calling or texting a family member for support, socializing with close friends, finding a small task to complete, or reaching out to a medical professional for help. 8.According to Dr. Ryan Sultan, why do young people like bed rotting?A.Bed rotting is a way to escape stress.B.Bed rotting helps fix sleep schedules.C.They are unwilling to socialize with friends.D.They are fond of what is popular on social media.9.What does the word “fine-tuned” underlined in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Quickly-started.B.Well-trained.C.Badly-needed.D.Ill-equipped. 10.What can we learn from the passage?A.Feeling down leads to decreased motivation.B.Sleeping in light can increase the risk of depression.C.Young individuals meet expectations through bed rotting.D.Being lazy from time to time can be good for individuals.11.What is the passage mainly talking about?A.Different opinions on how to become motivated.B.Main causes of the long-term need for bed rotting.C.Practical suggestions for young people to deal with stress.D.Possible problems from lying in bed for extended periods of time.Sportsmanship is the cornerstone of competitive sports, representing the principles of fair play, respect and honesty. It goes beyond winning and losing, emphasizing the importance of moral behavior, respecting each other, and fellowship.At the heart of sportsmanship lies the concept of fair play. It fosters (培养) a culture of rule-following, fair judgment, and equal opportunities for all participants. Fair play encourages athletes to compete with integrity, showing honesty and accepting the outcomes gracefully. It fosters an environment where cheating, unsportsmanlike and rude behavior are discouraged. By upholding fair play, athletes develop a sense of morality (道德) and a strong character that extends beyond the field of sports.Sportsmanship also includes respect and empathy (共情), creating an environment that encourages understanding and camaraderie. Athletes show respect for opponents, officials, and teammates, recognizing their contributions and valuing their abilities. They appreciate the various backgrounds, skills and perspectives that athletes from different teams bring to the game. Through respect and empathy, sportsmanship bridges gaps, promotes inclusivity and fosters a sense of unity among athletes and fans alike.Sportsmanship is shown by athletes who act as role models, inspiring others with their conduct on and off the field. When athletes display sportsmanship, they send a powerful message to young fans, teaching them the importance of fair play, respect and moral behavior. This positive influence extends to society as a whole, where sportsmanship can shape attitudes, values and behaviors beyond the field of sports. By upholding the principles of sportsmanship, athletes contribute to a healthier, more caring society.Sports organizations, coaches and educators play an important role in promoting sportsmanship. They should foster an environment that encourages fair play, respect and honesty. Emphasizing sportsmanship in training programs and competitions helps athletes develop a strong moral compass,empowering them to make moral choices both in sports and in life. Furthermore, fans and audience should also welcome sportsmanship, creating a positive atmosphere thatencourages fair competition and respect for all participants.Sportsmanship is the bedrock of competitive sports, emphasizing the values of fair play and respect. It improves the sporting experience, fosters unity and shapes athletes into responsible and caring individuals. By promoting sportsmanship, we can create a sporting culture where victories are celebrated but fairness, respect and the spirit of the game take center stage.12.What does the underlined word “camaraderie” mean in Paragraph 3?A.Friendship.B.Leadership.C.Contribution.D.Competition. 13.What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about?A.How sportsmanship is understood.B.Why sportsmanship is stressed.C.When sportsmanship is shaped.D.Where sportsmanship is treasured. 14.What can be learned from Paragraph 5?A.Athletes should be trained to make moral choices.B.Audience could influence athletes’ performance in sports.C.Promoting sportsmanship requires everyone’s contribution.D.Officials should take a lead in creating a positive atmosphere.15.What is the best title for this passage?A.Sportsmanship:Advantages of Doing SportsB.Sportsmanship:Spirit of Fair Play and RespectC.Showing Sportsmanship:Qualities of a Good PlayerD.Teaching Sportsmanship:Values of Honesty and CourageIn our modern economy, accelerated learning can be crucial for success. Learning faster means gaining more knowledge—quicker than others. 16 Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their learning process with the following techniques. Combine Learning Styles That Play to Your StrengthsWhen you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or classroom structure. 17 Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down your comprehension process. The best learning style is the one that makes it easier to process, or comprehend ideas, and subjects faster. Once you know your learning strengths and weaknesses, you can choose learning strategies that play to your strengths. SeekFirst to Understand The Basic Structure of The Topic You Choose18 So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics. Give Yourself Plenty of Time in Both “Focused” And “Diffused”(分散的)ModesNormally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time.19 Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused mode — a more relaxed state.Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So — just take breaks, let your mind wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections. 20A.You can benefit a lot from staying focused.B.Smart learners don’t have any special secrets.C.You should try to choose whatever you like best.D.Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it.E.Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself.F.Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall.G.You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors.二、完形填空For me, nothing is more satisfying than discovering hidden treasure in secondhand shops.21 , one person’s trash is another person’s 22 .Two years ago, I 23 a collection of old, dusty photos.

My mum began the painful yet necessary task of sorting through her belongings.“Is there anything you want from grandma’s flat?” Mum texted me.“Her aloe (芦荟), please.” I required zero thinking time.Sometime around 1975, Grandma, always believing good things would happen in the future, received this plant as a gift, which she appreciated and placed in her doorway. It came from thelocal butcher. Five years later, my mum married the butcher’s son and had me. Grandma revealed to me this particular plant was a living relationship between the two families. And so was I.Recently, whenever we visited Grandma’s flat, I attempted to fix this concept in my children’s minds. “That was a gift your great-grandma bought your other great-grandma! It’s older than me!” Then my kids would nod and ask Grandma for a sweet.Numerous times, Grandma gave me cuttings or clippings of the plant, hoping I might raise my own and continue the legend. Yet, every time, my new branch died with my awful gardening skills. But that didn’t used to matter, because I could turn to Grandma, who would wait and accept my disturbance without becoming upset. Then I got another clipping and tried again. But now I can’t. So, I decided that the plant will go and live with Ann, my mother-in-law, who is a genius with a greenhouse.The plan is for Ann to keep hold of the original plant. In time, she can teach me how to deal with its cuttings properly, and then maybe one day I can settle the plant in my place.In the meantime, Ann will allocate (分配) clippings among my relatives, as Grandma used to do. My wife’s two sisters, for example, are both better at tending plants than I am, so it is quite imaginable that they, too, will offer cuttings of the plant to their partners, spreading this loving plant across my entire extended family.20.Why did the author want his grandma’s aloe?A.He wanted to pass it down to others.B.He showed a preference for gardening.C.He had a pleasant memory of the plant.D.He received it as a gift from his grandma. 21.Which of the following best describes the author’s grandma?A.Optimistic and patient.B.Generous and helpful.C.Honest and fashionable.D.Humorous and skillful.22.The author took the aloe to his mother-in-law toA.display his skills in gardening B.have the plant better cared forC.announce his grandma’s death D.protect the plant from dying out23.What may be the best title for the text?A.Aloe: my family bond B.Aloe: a mysterious plantC.Grandma: my life coach D.Grandma: a lovely gardenerLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150). Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival. 24.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patters.D.They were closely connected25.Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2?A.Complex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.26.How many languages are spoken by less than 6, 000 people at present?A.About 6,800 .B.About 3,400C.About 2,400D.About 1,200.27.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.The kids are hanging out. I pass small bands of students, on my way to work these mornings. They have become a familiar part of the summer landscape.These kids are not old enough for jobs. Nor are they rich enough for camp. They are school children without school. The calendar called the school year ran out on them a few weeks ago. Once monitored by teachers and principals, they now appear to be “self care”.Passing them is like passing through a time zone. For much of our history, after all, Americans arranged the school year around the needs of work and family. In 19th-century cities, schools were open seven or eight hours a day, 11 months a year. In rural America, the year was arranged around the growing season. Now, only 3 percent of families follow the agricultural model, but nearly all schools are scheduled as if our children went home early to milk the cows and took months off to work the crops. Now, three-quarters of the mothers of school-age children work, but the calendar is written as if they were home waiting for the school bus.The six-hour day, the 180-day school year is regarded as something holy. But when parents work an eight-bour day and a 240-day year, it means something different. It means that many kids go home to empty houses. It means that, in the summer, they hang out.“We have a huge mismatch between the school calendar and realities of family life,” says Dr. Ernest Boyer, head of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.Dr. Boyer is one of many who believe that a radical revision of the school calendar is inevitable. “School, whether we like it or not, is educational. It always has been.”His is not a popular idea. Schools are routinely burdened with the job of solving all our social problems. Can they be asked to meet the needs of our work and family lives?It may be easier to promote a longer school year on its educational merits and, indeed, the educational case is convincing. Despite the complaints and studies about our kids lack of learning,the United State still has a shorter school year than any industrial nation. In most of Europe, the school year is 220 days. in Japan, it is 240 days long. While classroom time alone doesn’t produce a well-educated child, learning takes time and more learning takes more time. The long summers of forgetting take a toll.The opposition to a longer school year comes from families that want to and can provide other experiences for their children. It comes from teachers. It comes from tradition. And surely from kids. But the most important part of the conflict has been over the money.28.The current American school calendar was developed in the 19th century according to ______.A.the growing season on nation’s farmB.the labor demands of the industrial ageC.teachers’ demands for more vacation timeD.parents’ demands for other experiences for their kids29.Why is Dr. Boyer’s idea unpopular?A.He thinks that school year and family life should be considered separatelyB.He argues for the role of school in solving social problems.C.He strongly believes in the educational role of school.D.He supports the current school calendar.30.“The long summers of forgetting take a toll” in the last paragraph but one means that ______.A.long summer vacation changes the way of learningB.long summer vacation has been abandoned in EuropeC.long summers result in less learning timeD.long summers are a result of tradition31.The author thinks that the current school calendar ______.A.is still appropriate B.is out of dateC.is inevitable D.cannot be revised三、单词拼写32.At first I disagreed, but on (反思),I realized she was right.(根据汉语提示单词拼写) 33.Children have a natural c (好奇心) about the world around them. .

长沙市雅礼书院中学2023-2024学年高一上学期第一次月考英语试卷(Word版含解析)

长沙市雅礼书院中学2023-2024学年高一上学期第一次月考英语试卷(Word版含解析)长沙市雅礼书院中学2023-2024学年高一上学期第一次月考英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解When someone asks me what my goals are for the coming year, I don’t usually know how to reply. Of course I, as most people do, want to see an improvement in my grades. This year, however, I’m hoping for something different.Through the course of my school life, I’ve gradually developed a new understanding of the word “prioritization (优先次序)”. The first thing I wish to get in Senior One is the ability to manage my time better. I’ll surely become busier with the coming semester, and proper organization is important. From school clubs to academic competitions, everything should be set up in a way that doesn’t influence my health, which leads me to my second goal.My mother has always told me put my health first, so in the future, I hope to be both physically and mentally healthy. A person can’t study without the energy to do so. In order to stay energetic, they must put their health first, no matter how busy they are, or how much work theyhave to complete.And finally, I hope that I won’t be discouraged by my failure and never give up on my dreams. I hope that I’ll have the courage to try new activities and clubs. I believe my final goal can apply to every student around the world. We should all respect one another’s likes and dislikes, and focus on each other’s strengths, not our weaknesses. Everyone should try to make use of all of life’s opportunities.Albert Einstein once said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” In my case, it’s the other way around. In order to keep moving, I must keep my balance—the balance between studies and activities, efficiency and procrastination (拖延症), academics and health, passions and dislikes. The new journey is going to be a hard one, but if I set these goals, I believe I will make it through to the end.1、During Senior One, what does the writer want to do firstA. Focus on improving her overall grades.B. Join as many school clubs as possible.C. Learn how to manage her time well.D. Spend more time on outdoor activities.2、What is the attitude of the writer towards failureA. Discouraged.B. Brave.C. Uninterested.D. Positive.3、What is the writer’s purpose of the passageA. To explain how to balance studies and activities.B. To stress the importance of health to students.C. To show what she likes about high school life.D. To share her goals for the coming school year.Twenty years ago, the idea of sharing our lives so openly with the world was unheard of. However, for young people today it is considered completely normal to share pictures of their lives and interact (互动) online every day. Fans of social media point out that the world has never been so connected as it has allowed people to make friends, learn about the world and celebrate life.However, many people have worries about the effects of this new way of living, particularly around the amount and type of information that is shared so openly. Recently researchers have found that too much time on social media may have some negative (消极的) effects. They measured people’s attitudes and feelings before and after watching social media sites. They found that the more time people spent on social media, the more unhappy they became.There are a number of reasons for this. When watching social media, people often see photographs and stories showing beautiful holidays, fun parties and fashionable clothes. People seldom post negative stories or bad pictures, so it can be misleading (误导). For those looking at these pictures and comparing them to their own lives, they can end up feelings sad and depressed. They might think their lives are worse incomparison(对比). Even for those people who post positive stories and pictures, they too can feel stressed and worried. The number of “likes” and comments on their posts can make them anxious about their popularity. Of course, there is also the problem of “cyber bullying” where people become victims (受害者) of bullying online when others make negative or cruel comments about them.The reality is that social media is a part of modern life and it is not going to go away. This research shows us that it is important to find a balance between our online and offline lives. We don’t have to disconnect from the Internet to live a happy life, but we should realise that the pictures we see and stories we read are only part of a bigger picture. If we can do that, we can protect ourselves and enjoy our lives.4、What effect does social media have according to the recent researchA. It increases unhappiness for people using it too much.B. It enables people to make more friends on the Internet.C. It helps people to have a better knowledge of the world.D. It makes people have much more wonderful lives.5、Why are people worried when they post positive storiesA. They fear others mislead their posts.B. They think others have happier lives.C. They fear others have little interest in the stories.D. They guess they may be bullied by bad people.6、How does the author develop paragraph 3A. By listing figures.B. By analyzing causes.C. By making comparison.D. By describing process.7、What is probably the best title of the passageA.Attitude is everything.B.Every coin has two sides.C.All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.D.If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal.In 2023, Pink launched the World Regret Survey, the largest survey on the topic ever undertaken. With his research team, Pink asked more than 15, 000 people in 105 countries, “How often do you look back on your life and wish you had done things differently ” Most of them said regret was at least an occasional part of their life. About 21 percent said they felt regretful all the time. Only 1 percent said they never felt regretful.If you are of the “no regrets” school of life, you may think that all this regret is a recipe for unhappiness. But that isn’t the case. Letting yourself be overwhelmed by regret is indeed bad for you. But going to the other extreme may be even worse. To extinguish your regrets doesn’t free you from shame or sorrow but causes you to make the same mistakes again and again. To truly get over our guilt requires that we put regret in its proper place.Uncomfortable as it is, regret is an amazing cognitive(认知的) feature. Itrequires that you go back to a past scene. Imagine that you acted differently to change it, and with that new scene in mind, arrive at a different present-and then, compare that fictional present with the one you are experiencing in reality. Not all regrets are the same, of course. Pink says they come in four basic types, and an instance of regret may involve just one combination.Many connection regrets overlap (重叠) with moral regrets, which can come about after you go against your own values. For example, you may pride yourself on being a loving person, and thus regret not living up to this image in the relationship you harmed. Moral regrets can also involve just yourself. Maybe you regret not living up to your promise to your health when you ate a whole pizza or skipped the gym.If not analyzed(分析) and managed, any kind of regret can be harmful to your well-being. Regret is linked to depression and anxiety, and too much regret can negatively affect your immune system. But regret doesn’t have to be put aside and ignored.8、What could be concluded from Pink’s researchA. Half of the people felt regretful.B. Most people lived without regrets.C. None could live a life without regrets.D. Most of the people had regrets.9、What does the underlined word “extinguish” in paragraph 2 meanA. Destroy.B. Admit.C. Treasure.D. Experience.10、What is paragraph 4 mainly aboutA. The harm of moral regrets.B. The importance of promise.C. The relationship between regrets and values.D. The connection between reality and imagination.11、What might the author continue talking aboutA. Types of regrets.B. Causes of regrets.C. Benefits of experiencing regrets.D. Ways of dealing with regrets.二、七选五12、What if there was a way to get more out of each day While we all have the same 24 hours, how we use that time influences what we can achieve. Recent research suggests that one way to pack more into your day is to synchronize (使同步)your biological clock to your daily time-table. By doing certain things when you are most active and energetic, you might be able to improve your productivity.①_______ This works much like a program regulating the timing of many biological functions ranging from when you sleep to when you wake. You’ve probably noticed that there are certain times during the day when you feel more energetic. ②_______ Research has shown however, that your body clock is responsible for more than just your sleep-wake cycle. For instance, you may want to adjust your time-tableto make most of your mental powers.③_______ Studies suggest that cognitive(认知) abilities tend to be at their highest level during the late morning hours, so you might want to deal with those mentally demanding activities before lunch. ④_______ This is why you might find yourself struggling to focus on those work meetings after lunch.If you are working on some sort of creative task, it might be a bit different. In a study examining how the time of day influences problem solving, researchers had participants solve analytical(分析性的) problems during times when they were either at their mental best or at less effective times of tiredness. ⑤_______ Because the mind is more likely to wander(stop focusing on something) when we are tired, it seems that it can lead people to think in more innovative(创新的) ways.A.At other times, you might feel tired.B.You are probably at your sharpest in the morning.C.Knowing this might help you adapt your own time-table.D.Your biological clock controls a great deal of how you function.E.Experts also suggest that attention levels weaken following meals.F.Changing your biological clock may not be easy, but it could be beneficial.G.They found that people tend to do their best creative thinking when they are tired.三、完形填空(15空)As a child, I never considered myself an athlete at all as I was very uncoordinated(不协调的). However, I did love to run because I felt as if I was flying but this all changed two years ago when I suffered a knee 1 . I have laid in bed for two weeks and I had a 2 time moving even short distances. Actually I 3 myself on my way to the car for a few days.When therapy(治疗)wasn’t working well for me, I 4 for a hot yoga class for girls, Bikram Yoga to be exact. Starting a yoga practice was truly a godsend(意外的幸运) because it helped me gain 5 in my knees but, most importantly, yoga helped me gain a more peaceful 6 of mind, body and spirit.Since each class was heated to 105°F, every time I stepped foot in the yoga studio, I’d feel a surge(涌起) of negative thoughts come upon me like a big ocean wave. Some of these thoughts were, in the beginning of my practice, so strong that I walked out of the class several times.7 , as the months passed by, I 8 that when I didn’t get carried away by my negative thoughts, I could 9 in the hot room for longer.After 3-4 months, 10 practicing hot yoga, my arms and legs were beginning to get better. I also woke up with so much more 11 than I had before starting my yoga practice and I gradually started losingweight. Yoga literally made me feel as if I’d taken a shot of energy drink and just gave me that burst that helped my knees heal and made my 12 health better.As I saw some of my classmates do poses that looked appealing to me, I started to think maybe I could do them too. Therefore, yoga helped show me that I have no real limitations physically unless I set those limitations myself through eating junk and 13 in negative limiting ways. Also, practicing yoga in front of a mirror helped me link with 14 and practicing with a group of people really helped me to feel a greater sense of connection with humanity whereas before I didn’t. Overall, this yoga practice has helped me to see I’m part of a bigger 15 in life!13、A. difficulty B. injury C. operation D. pressure14、A. challenging B. joyful C. confusing D. surprising15、A. enjoyed B. expressed C. cried D. respected16、A. look forward B. signed up C. take part D. set off17、A. muscle B. force C. confidence D. strength18、A. kind B. situation C. result D. state19、A.

I ②_______ (tell) that my junior year would be the ③_______ (tough) in all years of high school. With this little piece of information, I walked into my junior year, ④_______ (scare) of my grades.

Henry was a pen name used by an American writer of short stories. His real name was William Sydney Porter. He was born in North Carolina in 1862. As a young boy he lived an exciting life. He did not go to school for very long, but he managed to teach himself everything he needed to know. When he was about 20 years old, O. Henry went to Texas, where he tried different jobs. He first worked on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank, when some money went missing from the bank O. Henry was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories. After he got out of prison, he went to New York and continued writing.

湖北省2024-2025学年高一上学期9月月考英语试题

湖北省2024-2025学年高一上学期9月月考英语试题一、阅读理解Music FestivalsImpact FestivalJune, 2024 Atlas Arena, Lodz, PolandThere is nothing quite like the experience of attending a music festival in Europe, specifically in Lodz, Poland. Visitors will hear some heavy metal, progressive metal, alternative, rock, indie and even some DJs. You will spend your day meeting beautiful people, listening to some great live music, freeing your mind and spirit and dancing the night away with a lot of other people in the campsite.Reading FestivalAugust, 2024 Richfield Avenue, United KingdomStarted in 1989, the festival had simple beginnings starting with one stage, a few popular musical acts, and a three- day weekend. Now the festival has become one of the most popular in the United Kingdom, having five different stages showing popular artists from the U. K. Fans can enjoy a thrilling three- day weekend listening to their favorite bands while they camp out. If you do not have your own tent, the Leeds campground offers many luxury (奢华的) camping choices for you to enjoy. TomorrowlandJuly, 2024 Boom, BelgiumTomorrowland is an electronic music festival in Belgium, Europe, featuring the world’s most popular DJs and producers.

Produced by Mango TV, the show invites female celebrities (名人), mostly over the age of 30, to stage performances that challenge showbiz (娱乐界) age stereotypes in China.Jonathan says that her foray (初次尝试) into Chinese reality shows is driven by her love of Chinese culture and wish to“ show a possible bridge between French and Chinese cultures”.“I haven’t participated in reality shows back in France,” she says. “I accepted this invitation because it is a huge challenge, and because I want to learn more Chinese and learn to sing in Chinese.”Jonathan’s parents both have a love of Chinese culture, and her mother runs a travel agency that began promoting tours to China in the 1990s. She visited China with her mother for the first time when she was 10 and has since formed a lasting bond with the country.As a child, Johnathan was given her first scooter and guitar in Beijing. As she grew up, she was attracted to Chinese philosophies like Taoism and Confucianism. Since her first album (专辑) was released in 2010, she has translated several songs into Chinese and has returned to Chinaregularly to perform.Jonathan already had a sizable following among Chinese students of French before the show, but broader Chinese audiences have since been pleased with her performance.“France and China have a lot in common,” she says, remarking on the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic (外交的) relations between China and France. “The 60-year friendship between China and France is just the beginning for a new wave of mutual (相互的) learning.”4.What do we know about Ride the Wind 2024 music competition?A.It is open to participants of different genders.B.It focuses on celebrities under the age of 30.C.It refuses showbiz age stereotypes.D.It is unpopular with Chinese audiences.5.Why did Jonathan decide to take part in the Chinese reality shows?A.She is curious about China since she hasn’t been China before.B.She is addicted to Chinese philosophies like Taoism and Confucianism.C.She has participated in reality shows back in France.D.She wants to build a bridge between French and Chinese cultures.6.What can be inferred(推断)about Joyce Jonathan?A.Her parents have little interest in Chinese culture.B.She wins more popularity in China after the show.C.She got a bad impression of China when she was 10.D.She had her first-time performance in China in 2024.7.What is Jonathan’s attitude towards relations between China and France?A.Positive.B.Doubtful.C.Unclear.D.Negative.A casual walk along the Beijing Central Axis, connecting the Drum Tower and the impressive Forbidden City — this was Zhao’s first city-walking journey in the spring of last year. Since then, the 21-year-old student from Beijing Foreign Studies University has remained a city-walk fan, believing it to be the best way to “rediscover a city”.“I visited Beijing before the start of my college life here, and it was a typical package tourduring which going to scenic spots and taking photos was a big thing. The crowded tourist attractions gave me the impression that Beijing was a noisy place,” Zhao said.With the increasing variety of travel choices, traditional group tours no longer satisfy people who are looking for a more personal and different travel experience and hoping to explore every part of the city in a more immersive (沉浸式的) way.Compared with tightly scheduled routes (路线) and picture-taking tours, city-walking focuses on free, casual and spontaneous (自发的) experiences. The trending city-walk culture, which encourages experiencing urban life with no transportation means except one’s legs and feet, has also made splashes on various social media platforms.On the video-sharing app Douyin, the Chinese version of Tik-Tok, a recent video about citywalk routes in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, has gained more than 171,000 likes, with 72,000 viewers of all ages adding the video to their favorites. According to a report from lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, in the first half of this year, searches about city-walks increased 30-fold from the previous year. “The route offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the culture and landscape in different historical stages, as well as its beautiful natural scenery,” it said.Following his experience in Beijing, Zhao has also explored Wuhan in Hubei province, Hangzhou in Zhejiang province and other cities through city-walking tours. “City-walking is all about doing whatever you want in your own exploration of a city, and it is actually the kind of slow-paced, low-carbon lifestyle that I relate to so much,” he said.8.Why do Zhao call city-walking the best way to “rediscover a city”?A.The variety of travel choices is limited.B.Traditional group tour totally satisfies people’s need.C.It is a more enjoyable and personal way to explore the city.D.Common tour wastes much time in taking pictures.9.What do we know about city-walk culture?A.It refers to a 30-minute walk on the video-sharing app Douyin.B.It encourages the experience of free urban life without transportation.C.It offers practical travel tips through social media platforms.D.It shows historical moments of life-sharing platform Xiaohongshu.10.What can we learn in the last but one paragraph?A.City-walk has gained popularity on the Internet.B.City-walk is only loved by young people.C.City-walk recommends the shortest route from one city to another.D.City-walk has both advantages and disadvantages.11.What is the best title of the passage?A.Walking Out from Home B.Culture of Walking Catching on in Cities C.A Popular Social Platform D.Going Free to Explore the WorldTeachers play an important part in helping students develop intellectual humility (智性谦逊) , both in how they respond to being wrong or challenge themselves and in the tone and structure they set for classroom discussions.Students develop more openness and resilience (适应力) in classes where teachers readily admit to their own mistakes and maintain a class environment encouraging students to react respectfully when peers disagree or make mistakes.And research suggests it’s worth it for teachers to give students more chances to deal with challenging conversations in respectful ways.In one set of experiments at Columbia University’s Difficult Conversations Lab, pairs of adults were told they would spend 20 minutes trying to find agreement on debatable topics. For some, researchers lead them to think about the topic complicatedly: They provided background information in which opposite views were given, and the pairs were clearly told to “consider different perspectives (观点) .” For others, researchers simply contrasted (对比) opposing views and told the pairs, “ It is important to have a clear perspective.” A third group was given no directions.While the pairs who took a complex approach were able to write a joint (共同的) statement on their topic, less than half of the pairs who took a simplistic approach came to an agreement. Moreover, the pairs engaged in more complex discussions acted less defensively (防御性地), asked more questions of each other, and felt more positive during the discussions than those who had more black- and- white arguments or no direction at all.“Dealing with difficult issues has always been uncomfortable, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s something we should shy away from,” McQueen said. “Creating space to analyzenuance (细微差别) and to let young people experience nuance is difficult when there’s so much curriculum content to get through,” McQueen said. “But it’s trying to flesh out (充实) complexity and nuance that’s going to lead to a far greater willingness for people to just look for the areas of gray in life, rather than racing to judgments that are really easy and lazy.”12.What does “peers” underlined in the second paragraph mean?A.Roommates.B.Playmates.C.Workmates.D.Classmates. 13.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.A doubt about the research methods.B.An explanation of the research results.C.An introduction to the research process.D.The application of the research findings. 14.What does McQueen suggest in the last paragraph?A.It’s meaningful for students to deal with difficult issues.B.Students should shy away from uncomfortable things.C.It’s useless for students to learn curriculum content.D.Students prefer easy and lazy judgments.15.Who might be the target readers of the passage?A.Editors.B.Educators.C.Doctors.D.Students.How to Do Better in SchoolThe start of a new school year is a great opportunity to improve your grades and experience at school, but you can choose to do better at any point during the year! 16 . Read our list of tips to have the best school year ever!Take notes on class material.Take notes to help you remember and understand what you learn. Taking notes helps you remember what you hear or read, but it also helps your brain stay active and absorb information adequately. 17 , and make note of questions you have about the material while you read.Ask lots of questions.18 . It’s your teacher’s job to help you learn and understand, so don’t hesitate to ask them questions! Asking questions will not only help you learn the material better, but will also show your teachers that you’re engaged and interested.Participate in class.For certain classes, class participation might make up a percentage of your grade. 19 , and it will show your teacher that you’re serious about doing a good job. If your teacher asks questions or opens the floor to a class discussion, don’t be afraid to jump in and share your perspective.Prioritize (排序) your assignments and other responsibilities.Complete time-sensitive or difficult assignments first. When you have a lot of things on your plate, it can be hard to know where to begin. To avoid feeling overwhelmed or stuck, create a to-do list and put your most difficult or urgent assignments at the top. 20 .A.Keeping your time and supplies organized enables you to do better in schoolB.Don’t try to answer every question or give an opinion on every topicC.When you don’t understand something, raise your handD.Once you’ve dealt with those, move on to smaller and less urgent items on the listE.The key to doing better in school is promoting healthy study habitsF.Write down key points mentioned by your teacher or the textbookG.Even if it doesn’t, participating in class can help you better remember the material二、完形填空I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend. She had just 21 into the neighborhood. when I met her, I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, 22 to look at each other. Soon, we lost the 23 and started playing with each other, bike riding to each other’s house and having sleepovers.In 7th grade, I first lost 24 with her because she was 25 family problems. Her friends all deserted (离弃) her. None of my new friends liked her as much as I did because they knew she had “ 26 ”. However every summer we would always sit at each other’s house and 27 soap operas, eat Doritos(or whatever junk food her mom had bought).It was last year when I noticed the problem. She was diagnosed (诊断) with clinical depression, and had to go to a 28 during the day. I was very 29 at first but with the late night calls, and meeting each other halfway up the street at midnight. We still stayed in touch.I knew I had to be there for her since people were calling her crazy, and I knew I still 30her like a sister.I guess a kind of 31 from my life so far is to never give up on your friends. Even if they aren’t as 32 as others, or people think they are 33 , they need someone there. If you 34 them, you will only be miserable (使人难受的) yourself. So if a friend 35 you, and you care for them, you can never desert them.21.A.changed B.registered C.moved D.turned 22.A.glad B.scared C.attracted D.angry 23.A.shyness B.confidence C.addiction D.confusion 24.A.touch B.attention C.direction D.focus 25.A.going up B.going against C.going on D.going through 26.A.problems B.results C.questions D.styles 27.A.work B.listen C.watch D.speak 28.A.home B.hospital C.parking lot D.garden 29.A.responsible B.curious C.puzzled D.upset 30.A.cared about B.leave alone C.give up D.break up 31.A.story B.problem C.lesson D.word 32.A.cool B.formal C.calm D.obvious 33.A.impressed B.crazy C.anxious D.excited 34.A.annoy B.recommend C.love D.desert 35.A.notices B.needs C.praises D.reminds三、语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

He sold the stone to a diamond dealer for over three hundred thousand dollars. In New York, the diamond was resold—this time for almost eight hundred thousand dollars. The true value of a diamond is never known until it has been cut. Once cut successfully, its value can increase a thousand times. It’s easy to understand why the owner of Joker’s diamond went to the best diamond cutter he knew, Kaplan. The cutter studied the diamond for twelve whole months.When he felt he was ready to start work, he discovered a flaw(瑕疵). He had to begin his calculations(计算)all over again, or he might have made the stone useless. Six more months passed, and Kaplan finally said to the owner, “I am ready to start my work. There will be one excellent diamond that will be comparable to (可与……相比的)any in the world, plus eleven small diamonds of first-class quality(质量).”Kaplan waited a few more days until he felt he was in the best physical and mental(精神的)condition possible.

This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise, and as a result, we are growing old unnecessarily soon.Professor Taiju Mutsuzawa wanted to find out why quite healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a rather early age, and how the speed of getting old could be slowed down.With a team of researchers at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain sizes of a thousand people of different ages with different jobs.Computer technology helped the researchers to get most exact measurements of the sizes of the front and side parts of the brain, which have something to do with thinking and feeling, and decide the human character. As we all know, the back part of the brain, which controls tasks like eating and breathing, does not contract(萎缩)with age.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple way to prevent the contraction—using the head.The findings show that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those with least possibility, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White-collar workers doing the same works day after day in government offices are, however, as possible to have contracting brains as the farm workers, bus drivers and shop assistants.6.The team of doctors wanted to find out ____.A.at what point people grow mentally oldB.how to make people live longerC.the size of certain people’s brainsD.which people are the most clever7.Their research findings are based on ____.A.an examination of farmers in northern JapanB.tests given on a thousand old peopleC.examining the brain sizes of different peopleing computer technology8.The doctors’ tests show that ____.A.our brain contract as we grow olderB.one part of the brain does not contractC.sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-oldsD.some people’s brains have contracted earlier than other people’s.9.According to the article, ____ are growing mentally old earlier.A. engineersB. office clerksC. professorsD. researchers10. The most possible conclusion of the article is that ____.A. most of us should take more exerciseB. the brain contracts if it is not usedC. it’s better to live in the townsD. the more one uses his brain, the sooner he becomes oldCThe word horsepower was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt had made the world’s first widely used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were no units for measuring power.Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He called that unit one horsepower. With this unit he could measure the work his steam engine could do.He discovered that a horse could lift a 3300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet in one minute.Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse. Watt called it a ten-horsepower engine.11.The passage tells us that Watt made the first ____.A. engineB. steam engineC. widely used steam engineD. powerful engine12.Watt wanted to find a way to ____.A.measure the work his engine could doB.tell people how powerful his engine could doC.lift a 3300-pound weightD.both A and B13.Watt made a unit of measurement according to the strength of ____.A. a manB. ten horseC. his engineD. a horse14.One horsepower is equal to the ____.A.work a horse could do in a minuteB.weight a horse could liftC.work a horse could do in ten minutesD.weight of one horse15.Which of the following best gives the main idea of the passage?A.How Watt called his engine.B.How the word HORSEPOWER came into use.C.How Watt measured his engine.D.How the measurement was discovered.四.改错(每题1分,共10分)The Dead Sea is really a larger lake.
