山西省高一下学期期末英语试卷(含有答案解析）（满分：150分；考试时间：120分钟）学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The world is a splendid place, full of hidden and overt beauty in every corner. Here are some of the most beautiful places around the world.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, UgandaBwindi Impenetrable Forest is one of the last harbors of the mountain gorilla (大猩猩). Several hundred call this UNESCO World Heritage Site home, with the chance for visitors hike and meet habituated groups. Its biodiversity extends far beyond its most famous inhabitants. However -almost 350 bird species and around 220 butterfly species can be found within its 331-square-kilometer expanse.Samburu, KenyaThanks to its relative inaccessibility in the heart of Kenya, Samburu is a haven (避难所) for some of Africa’s most charming wildlife. The grassland and acacia-dotted landscapes of its national reserve are home to the endangered giraffe and zebra, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, ChinaChina’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Hunan Province is known for its towering sandstone pillars (柱子). Best explored on foot, its back trails make for an easy way to escape the crowds and find the best views. As the mists fall, it’s easy to sea why this area has long been an inspiration for traditional Chinese paintings.The MaldivesThe sand of its 1,200 islands is as white as it gets, and the water is a deep blue that puts all other seas in the shade. The Indian Ocean nation of the Maldives has developed into the world’s premier tropical hot spot for a reason. Best of all, there are plenty of beaches to go around, with over 100 private resorts and welcoming, affordable guesthouses around the Male and Ari atolls.1．What makes Samburu a haven for wildlife?A．Its landscape. B．Its location.C．Its climate. D．Its food.2．What do Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Zhangjiajie National Forest Park have in common?A．They are home to gorillas.B．They have more than 350 bird species.C．They are on the World Heritage Site List.D．They are inspirations for traditional paintings.3．Which of the following suits beach-lovers?A．Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. B．Samburu.C．Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. D．The Maldives.Last weekend, my husband and I drove a dog to her new home. Typically, when we have a new dog in the backseat, it’s a young dog. But this passenger was a much different story. Magdalen is a 13-year old dog. Her owner gave her up temporarily when he was sick, but when he fully recovered several months later, he said he didn’t want her back. He had her since she was young but now had no place for her.The family who had given her a temporary home had children and other dogs and was unable to give her a forever home. When Speak St, Louis, the rescue team I work with, was contacted about the dog, they offered to take her in. She went to a vet (兽医) for a basic health check. But the vet didn’t have great news. Her mouth was swollen (肿胀的) with all sorts of problems. Two teeth fell out during cleaning and eleven more had to be pulled out.Luckily, a good friend of mine, a dog trainer with a soft heart for seniors, had agreed to adopt Magdalen. On the trip to the trainer’s home, the sweet senior looked so relaxed in our backseat. I felt a great sense of relief and pleasure.Her owner needed some temporary help when he was sick. But I can’t imagine why he wouldn’t have wanted her back. I think of my own dog and dogs we lost to old age in the past. We’re family and we stay that way forever. She’d be able to live a good life. I hoped, in her new home!4．What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A．The former owners of the dog.B．Where the dog was treated.C．What the dog needed most.D．The problems the dog met.5．What is the author’s job?A．Training old dogs.B．Treating sick dogs.C．Looking for homes for dogs.D．Looking for lost dogs’ owners.6．How did the author feel on her way to her friend’s home?A．Relieved and happy. B．Nervous and grateful.C．Surprised and curious. D．Hopeful and proud.7．What does the author think of Magdalen’s owner giving her up?A．She didn’t understand his behaviour.B．She believed it was painful for him.C．She was certain he would regret.D．She thought he made a wise decision.Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this, tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical (按字母顺序), never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, bow ever hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can - then let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relieved, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.8．What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A．Writing essays in strict order.B．Building up physical strength.C．Leaving out the toughest ideas.D．Dealing with the hardest task first.9．On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue? A．Before starting a difficult task.B．When all the solutions fail.C．If the job is rather boring.D．After finding a way out.10．According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us ________ . A．ignore mental problemsB．get some nice sleepC．gain complete reliefD．find the right solution11．What could be the best title for the passage?A．Success Is Built upon FailureB．How to Handle Performance FatigueC．Getting over Fatigue: A Way to SuccessD．Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health ProblemsKite surfing is a sport that takes place on the surface of the water, on top of boards that are similar in design to wakeboards (尾波滑水板), with the surfer pulled by a kite. The popularity of kite surfing has grown, although it is rather difficult to master. Kite surfing uses the same equipment as kite boarding, but is generally given more to riding on top of waves, rather than on smaller lakes or other calm bodies of water.Early experiments in kite transportation took place through the 19th century, and at the dawn of the 20th century Samuel Cody crossed the English Channel using kites and a small boat. Kite surfing itself, however, wasn’t really born until the late 1970s. Beginning in that decade, more people became involved in using kites for personal transport and sport. Kite technology itself advanced enormously during the 1970s, with kites becoming much more controllable.The early kite surfing was rather accidental, but innovators continued to develop the technology to make it easier to control and safer. By the late 1990s, kite surfing was becoming popular off the coast of Maui, France and throughout the world. In 1997, a special kite system was built specifically for kite surfing, which helped kite surfing into the mainstream.Because of the high speeds and the dangers, it is generally recommended that would-be kite surfers take at least a few basic classes to learn the fundamentals.The main attraction of kite surfing is the potential for amazing tricks. The kite allows the surfer to experience enormous jumps, flying through the air for large distances before hitting the water in a controlled fashion. Like skateboarding, kite surfing makes use of a number of board grabs, with complex tricks possible due to the long period of time the surfer can remain in the air.12．What does the author mainly intend to tell us in Paragraph 1?A．What is kite surfing. B．Where to go kite surfing.C．How to enjoy kite surfing. D．Why people like kite surfing.13．In the 19th century, people intended to use kite for ________.A．sport B．experimentC．entertainment D．transportation14．What can we know from the third paragraph?A．Kite surfing often leads to accidents.B．Maui is home to kite surfing.C．Kite control is the key to kite surfing.D．Kite surfing came into being in the 1990s.15．What is most charming for people surfing?A．Its potential for tricks. B．Its long time in the air.C．Its speed across the water. D．Its big distance over the water.二、七选五Here’s How To Have A Calmer Sunday NightFor most people, the end of the weekend isn’t a welcome time. 16 .

As a Korean student, I performed a Chinese ethnic dance. Everyone wondered why, and my parents asked me, “Why didn’t you perform ballet or traditional Korean dance?” Well, this story began when I was 5 years old. At that time, my family moved to Dalian, Liaoning. To develop a special skill, I explored various after-school classes. Among all the options available to me, Chinese dance attracted me the most. The nice dance studio and beautiful costumes all seemed to call out to me, making me eager to try everything.Learning Chinese dance was indeed challenging, especially when I was practicing the basics, which require a high level of physical flexibility, strength and accuracy. For example, practicing complicated steps repeatedly to achieve accuracy and coordination(协调)can be tiring. However, the moment I mastered a dance routine and performed it onstage, I felt incredibly confident and joyful. Later, I had to return to Korea for school and say goodbye to Chinese dance. After I turned 15, I happened to meet a Chinese dance teacher who had opened a studio in Korea. Without doubt, I signed up in her classes. Although I struggled with some of the difficult dance moves due to the long break, my passion for Chinese dance remained unchanged. Seeing myself in the dance costume again in front of the mirror, I felt like I had regained the unique confidence I had 10 years ago.In February, I decided to participate in the Dance World Cup and perform a Chinese ethnicdance. I won the gold medal in the competition’s world ethnic dance category. Through this competition, my love for Chinese dance grew even stronger, and I was delighted to show Chinese culture to a broader Korean audience.4．What did the author’s parents think about her choice of dance?A．Wonderful.B．Acceptable.C．Inspiring.D．Surprising. 5．What’s the author’s difficulty in learning Chinese dance?A．Lacking confidence on stage.B．Adapting to the life routine in China.C．Meeting high standards of the basics.D．Having too many after-school classes. 6．Why did the author return to Chinese dance?A．To open a dance studio in Korea.B．For her love for Chinese dance.C．To win a medal in the competition.D．For the popularity of Chinese culture. 7．What can be the best title for the text?A．Embracing Chinese Culture in Dance B．Performing on a Worldwide StageC．Exchanges Between China and Korea D．Ups and Downs of Chinese DancesChildren do not laugh for joy. Scientific studies, including my own, show that there is something much deeper than joy in a child’s laughter. I find that it is closely connected to brain and personality development: children laugh for very different reasons at different stages of development.Laughter begins soon after birth. Babies learn to laugh because they want to copy their parents expressions, and to receive attention and praise from them. This is the way babies learn everything at first: through copying and receiving attention and praise of adults around them.But as they grow, they learn to distinguish their own person from their parents and the world around them. Once they begin to behave on their own — from age 2 to 5 — they begin to feel something new for the first time: certain things may seem cold, strange, or out of place, and this shocks, confuses and amazes them. This is where laughter comes in: after a moment of hesitation, they understand that what seemed frightening or unexpected is actually harmless.For instance, a child laughs when they see their father with a funny clown nose. Why? Because for a second they felt embarrassed: that nose is not a “live” nose. When they understand it was just dad’s joke, they calm down and laugh. They may also laugh when their older brothermakes a silly face, and the process is the same.From age 5 or 6 and up, children learn to handle abstract (抽象的) ideas, meaning they can grasp and “get” jokes. Before that, they are at the earlier stage of being self-centered, which hinders their understanding of others’ reasoning. But once they overcome it, their laughter process is the same as that of adults.These three stages of laughter development are good indicators of child’s mental growth and development.8．Why do babies laugh soon after birth?A．They are expressing their happiness.B．They are showing their personality.C．They are learning their parents’ behavior.D．They are giving praise to their parents. 9．What’s the babies’ mental process of laughing from age 2 to 5?A．They feel amazed, understand and laugh.B．They feel harmless, hesitate and laugh.C．They hesitate, feel frightened and laugh.D．They understand, feel shocked and laugh. 10．Why does the author mention the father and the brother in paragraph 4?A．To give examples.B．To provide methods.C．To make comparisons.D．To offer suggestions.11．What does the underlined word “hinders” in paragraph 5 mean?A．Forms.B．Deepens.C．Reflects.D．Prevents.Wake up energetically at 6 am, exercise for over an hour after freshening up, and study productively throughout the day. This daily schedule is frequently featured in vlogs on social media with the theme of “self-discipline (自律)”.But when trying out such a schedule, many of us may feel lacking in energy. Is it just because we are lazy? Why do some people seem to have so much energy? There’s a whole lot you can explore about your energy levels.Genetic differences, to start with, can significantly influence our energy levels. A tiny part in our DNA called SNPs can help to explain 8.4 percent of cases of feeling tired, according to a 2018 study.The food you eat also gives you energy. However, there’s an often-forgotten element —vitamin D．A study published in 2019 in the journal Nutrients noted that older adults withreduced vitamin D levels experienced state of being tired more than those with normal levels. You can get enough amount of it by sunbathing or having enough vitamin-D-rich foods, such as fish, eggs and milk.Another analysis published in Nutrients in 2020 found that eating foods high in a certain fat is linked to too much daytime sleepiness. These foods probably include some of your favorites: butter, cheese, ice cream, and fried foods.Even if a workout leaves you in sweat and out of breath, exercise can actually increase your energy. ”When you exercise, you release hormones (激素),” US expert Sabrena Jo told the Health website. “This hormone actually tells our bodies to forget feelings of pain and tiredness while helping blood flow to large muscles.” This “excitement” in your body can last for several hours. Exercise helps, but only to a point. Those who exercise too frequently may experience negative impacts on their energy levels.12．What affects our energy levels according to the 2018 study?A．Self-discipline.B．The daily schedule.C．Productive study.D．A certain part of DNA．13．What did the study in 2019 find?A．Vitamin D is a major energy source.B．People feel sleepy due to a certain fat.C．Vitamin D levels is related to energy levels.D．People often forget to have Vitamin D．14．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．The more exercise, the better.B．Sweat has negative impacts on energy levels.C．Adjusting breath rate releases hormones.D．Proper exercise reduces feeling of tiredness. 15．What does the text mainly talk about?A．Ways to improve energy levels.B．Elements influencing energy levels.C．Balanced nutrients in daily foods.D．Genetic differences benefiting our health.How to Get into CollegeThe college admission world can be mysterious. But experts urge students not to panic.16•Get an early start and finish high school strongColleges want to see that you’ve focused from the start on getting the best possibleeducation your high school has to offer. High school shouldn’t just happen to you. 17 . Colleges like to see that a student is on an upward way where they show continued improvement, particularly during their junior and senior years.•Challenge yourself responsiblyAdmission officers attach importance to overall high school GPA, grades in Advanced Placement or other college-prepared classes, a careful course plan and a student’s writing file or personal paper. 18 , according to a 2019 report from the National Association for College Admission Counseling.• 19Colleges are looking for students with rich experiences and various interests.

I picked a light-brownone. Despite it being 22 and fitting loosely, I felt more confident with it than without it. “I 23 your hair. It looks so pretty, ” friends said. Other kids who didn’t know my background story weren’t so 24 . They would laugh at me each time they saw me without my 25 on.Years on, when I was 25, I met Kim who was selling wigs. Made from real human hair, Kim’s wigs were incredibly 26 and comfortable to wear. You could even swim, play 27 or go on a roller-coaster in them.

Megan Piphus Peace is one of them: In late 2021, she became the show’s first full-time black woman puppeteer, playing a 6-year-old black girl named Gabrielle. Last month, she officially left her real estate career. “I always dreamed of working in television, but I never imagined myself being on Sesame Street,” she says.Piphus Peace, now 29, grew up watching Sesame Street. As a young child, she considered the puppets to be her companions, not realizing until she was older that they weren’t real. She has been pursuing puppeteering since then. At Vanderbilt University, where she studied economics, she was known as the “Vanderbilt Ventriloquist (腹语表演者).” She even appeared on The Tonight Show in 2012 and America’s Got Talent in 2013.One of Piphus Peace’s teachers, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph, who played the Sesame Street character Abby Cadabby in 2006, says that Piphus Peace is a gifted storyteller and natural leader. “To say that I was amazed by Megan would be an understatement,”Carrara-Rudolph says. “I was inspired by her loving heart, strength of character, humor, humanity and what an energetic creative force she is.”Although Piphus Peace submitted her first video audition (试演) to Sesame Street in 2017, she didn’t hear back until 2020, when Matt Vogel, the puppet captain of the show, reached out to her. “She comes from a different kind of puppetry background than most of other Sesame Street puppet performers,” Vogel says. “We went to college to learn puppetry, or acting schools, etc., but Megan learned the art of ventriloquism by herself.”4．What do we know about Piphus Peace?A．She used to work in television. B．She is now part of Sesame Street. C．She was called Gabrielle at a young age.

D．She regarded them as her friends. 6．What does paragraph 3 strongly stress?A．Carrara-Rudolph’s impact on Piphus PeaceB．The striking characteristics of Sesame StreetC．Carrara-Rudolph’s opinion of Piphus PeaceD．The character Abby Cadabby in Sesame Street7．Why is Piphus Peace different from most other performers according to Vogel? A．She is a self-trained ventriloquist. B．She is the most popular performer. C．She has played many different characters. D．She is the only female actress in the show.Reading books can obviously make you a better, smarter entrepreneur. According to a 2018 study of over 160,000 adults in 31 countries, the more books that were present in participants’ childhood homes, the more competent they now were as adults with skills in literacy, mathematics, and technological problem-solving. Researchers note that book-oriented socialization, indicated by home library size, equips youth with lifelong tastes, skill and knowledge.Growing up with home libraries boosts adult skills in literacy, numeracy and technological problem-solving beyond the benefits acquired from parental education or your own educational or occupational attainment. Kids who grow up in a home where reading is valued and modeled are more likely to be good readers. Strangely enough, though, advanced education doesn’t necessarily offset the “lots of books in the home” advantage. Adults who grew up with relatively few books in their homes and later earned a college degree had literacy levels approximately equal to adults who grew up in homes with large libraries but only attended school for nine years.Jessica Stillman [of Inc.] writes, surrounding yourself with more books than you could ever read says good things about your mind. Those books serve as a constant reminder of all the things you don’t know — which helps keep you intellectually hungry and curious. And possibly, this will keep you a little more modest, since research shows the quicker you are to admit you don’t know something, the faster you can then learn it. As Jeff Bezos says, a key sign of intelligence is the willingness to change your mind, something that only happens if you’re willing to admit that your current thinking may not be the best thinking. Modesty, learning and the willingness to change your mind when new data presents itself: That’s another three bonus every entrepreneur can benefit from.8．What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about the research?A．Tough process. B．Inspiring discovery.C．Numerous data. D．Advanced technology.9．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “offset” in paragraph 2?A．Compete with. B．Differ from. C．Go against. D．Compensate for. 10．Why does the author mention Jessica?A．To keep readers intellectually hungry. B．To stress the significance of modesty.C．To remind readers of their ignorance. D．To evidence the benefits of home library.11．What is the passage mainly about?A．Home library size indicates lifelong skills. B．Home reading equals to a college degree.C．Modesty makes a promising entrepreneur. D．Childhood libraries lead to adulthood success.The Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.When you are on a bicycle, you have the strength of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode (方式) of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车), now is your chance, because they have those too.A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.12．You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because ________.A．you will break the traffic rulesB．you will cause much noiseC．you can’t enjoy the beautiful sights wellD．you can’t drive into some parks13．The following advantages of hiring bikes are mentioned EXCEPT that ________.

It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood (情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likelyto recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 19 It gives us a great feeling of peace.20 While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give is beneficial Vitamin D．To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin— put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D．A．Being in nature refreshes us.B．But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?C．Fresh air cleans our lungs.D．So what are you waiting for?E．Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.F．All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.G．Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.三、完形填空Music can make us happy, peaceful or sad.

He may say he doesn't care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But ultimately, these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there.Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, "Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn't matter!" children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best.

Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity; others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture whichvalues only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “ I may have lost, but it dbecause I really didn ' t try. ” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really triedand lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one' s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve can we discover a new meaning in competition.61.What does this passage mainly talk about?petition helps to set up self-respect.B.Opinions about competition are different among people.petition is harmful to personal quality development.D.Failures are necessary experiences in competition62.Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?A.It pushes society forward.B. It builds up a sense of duty.C. It improves personal abilities.D. It encourages individual efforts.63.What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a desire to fail ?A. One 's worth lies in his performance compared with others.B.One 's success in competition needs great efforts.C .One' s achievement is determined by his particular skills.D. One' s success is based on how hard he has tried.64.Which point of view may the author agree to?A. Every effort should be paid back.petition should be encouraged.C.Winning should be a life-and-death matter.D.Fear of failure should be removed in competition.第II 卷I.TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 1．据估计，这项工程将持续三年。

Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%.“It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.He added, “H aving been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing ratherwell, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’”8．What is the purpose of the public holiday?A．To increase economic income. B．To encourage people to plant trees.C．To allow people to get more rest. D．To remind people to get close to nature. 9．Which word is the closest in meaning to “augment” in paragraph 3?A．Increase.

B．No contribution is too small to leave animpact.C．Each animal is important to nature. D．It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11．What is the best title for the text?A．Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect WildlifeB．Kenya Is in Face of Environmental ProblemsC．Kenya Improves Relationships with Their NeighborsD．Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant TreesDAre you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021.The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds.According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird.There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ me ntal well-being.And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study.“They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.”12．What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A．To introduce a phenomenon. B．To bring in the topic.C．To ask an interesting question. D．To provide background information. 13．How did the researchers conduct the study?A．By analyzing previous studies. B．By observing the behavior of birds.C．By gathering feelings of participants. D．By studying people’s effect on birds. 14．What does Hammoud think of the new study?A．Pioneering. B．Interesting. C．Conventional. D．Practical. 15．What is the main idea of the text?A．Bird watching has become a popular hobby.B．Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being.C．Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues.D．Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)
山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析）（满分：150分；考试时间：120分钟）学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The village of Hallstatt in Austria is a collection of old buildings. In summer, the mountains are green and the village is lovely. In winter, it’s like something out of a snow-covered fairy tale. Now it is being overrun with tourists, partly because it looks like the village from the movie Frozen. The town’s mayor is actually hoping that many tourists will stay away.Hallstatt is small. Fewer than 800 people live there. But the number of visitors who arrive each day is huge — up to 10,000 visitors a day. Hallstatt’s popularity first began when it became a World Heritage Site in 1997. But the number of visitors increased quickly after the release of Disney’s movie Frozen in 2013. Though much of Frozen was based on life in Norway, Hallstatt looks a lot like Arendelle, the main village in the movie. Some people believe that Arendelle was based on Hallstatt.Much of the tourism is driven by social media. Many of the visitors seem mainly interested in taking photos with the village in the background. Some local people feel stressed about it. With 10,000 visitors a day, that’s over 12 tourists for every person in Hallstatt. One man said his mother had woken up one day to find tourists in her bedroom.The mayor would prefer to have fewer tourists. He thinks the town would be just fine with about one third fewer visitors each year. Starting from this year, Hallstatt will begin a program to reduce the number of buses bringing visitors to the village.Before the tourism boomed, local people would leave Hallstatt to find work. Now many people depend upon the tourists for their living. Hotel rooms can cost between $350 and $450. And it costs over one dollar to use the public bathroom in Hallstatt. With 10,000 visitors a day, even toilets can be good business.1．What do we know about the village of Hallstatt in Austria?A．It has appeared in many famous movies.B．It is beautiful but crowded with tourists.C．It has a small population for its bad weather.D．It is an old village with poor customer service.2．What did the man mentioned in Paragraph 3 want to express?A．Visitors were welcome to stay at local homes.B．Local life was badly influenced by visitors.C．Social media brought visitors to his village.D．The locals had a close relationship with visitors.3．Which of the following best explains the word “boom” in the last Paragraph? A．Sigh. B．Drop. C．Decline. D．Rocket.4．What can we conclude from the text?A．Hallstatt is having fewer visitors for the high cost.B．Local people are satisfied with their life in Hallstatt.C．Tourism brings both trouble and benefits to local people.D．Local people have difficulty improving the housing service.Marie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian-Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read.I thought about it for a few seconds and replied, “Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection.I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Everyweek I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.On one occasion, Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carre. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers. Of course, I wished Miss Lantelme to hand the new mystery of John le Carre to me.All these memories flashed through my mind while I sweated my way through my work—out of breath, giving thanks to the librarians of the world, like Miss Lantelme, who gave me a lifetime of joy, not only the stories.5．What made the author interested in mysteries?A．The book her grandfather gave to her. B．The unknown feeling of a pre-teen girl.C．The professional service of Lantelme. D．The opinion her grandfather gave to her.6．What can we infer about the author from paragraph 3?A．She was interested in Agatha’s works B．She took exercise around the library.C．She bought a book from Lantelme.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported the US throws away more than 11 million tons of clothing every year. That is why some small businesses spotting the problem are beginning to recycle in ways they haven’t before.Create Good Company is a clothing company that tries to produce sustainable clothing and repurpose older clothing into updated fashionable items. Maggie Hendricks, the owner of Create Good Company, said, “If you can improve what you find, why wouldn’t you do that instead of buying new things? It’s a big issue not to create new waste. I would say we are 90% recycled materials.”According to the EPA, the average consumer(消费者)throws away 81.5 pounds of clothes every year. “Anywhere between 10%-17% of the waste that’s going into landfills(废弃物填埋场)is made up of things like textiles and clothing,” said Danny Katz with the CoPIRG Foundation. “A lot of the clothing that we’re producing doesn’t even get worn, so it’s going right to the landfill or even being burned and contributing to pollution that way. It’s really worrying.”This is why businesses like Create Good Company exist —to use outdated clothing and turn it into dresses or jackets. “There’s just so much waste and so many big companies that might not think about it,” Hendricks said. “Just standing with other like-minded people who are interested in sustainability is important.”Another important element Hendricks has focused on is creating these items and selling them at an affordable price. “Sustainability sometimes is green washed in companies and they make things more expensive,” Hendricks said. “That’s not how we become a sustainable world. I think making products affordable is important to me. I want to buy things that are better for the environment without throwing my pocketbook in the fire.”11．What makes Danny Katz worried?A．The use of old clothing. B．The cost of textile pollution. C．The effect of clothing waste. D．The future of the textile industry.12．What does Hendricks care more about when it comes to a sustainable product? A．Its price. B．Its sales.C．Its producer. D．Its quality.13．What is the best title for the text?A．The EPA’s measures to reduce textile waste.B．Consumers being aware of the seriousness of textile waste.C．Textile businesses’ social responsibility and their waste.D．Small businesses working to prevent textile waste.二、七选五MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen.

It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 15 .If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 16 .Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak doeswhat it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 17 . Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.18 . They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But otherpeople enjoy hearing Muzak in public places.

AMr. Lee was in bed and was trying to go to sleep when he heard the bell ring. He turned on the light and looed at his cloc. It was twelve o'cloc. "Who can it be at this time of night?" He thought. He decided to go and find out. So he got off bed, put on his dressing gown (浴袍) and went to the door. When he opened the door, there was nobody there. "That is very strange." Then he went bac to his bedroom, too off his dressing gown, got bac into bed, turned off the light and tried to go to sleep. A few minutes later he heard the bell again. Mr. Lee jumped out of bed very quicly and rushed to the door. He opened it, but again he found no one there. He closed the door and tried not to feel angry. Then he saw a piece of paper on the floor. He piced it up. There were some words on it "It is now after midnight(午夜), so it is April Fools’ Day. April fool to you!""Oh, it was the English boy net door!" Mr. Lee eclaimed (惊叫) and almostsmiled. He went bac to bed and fell asleep at once. The bell did not ring again.1. When did Mr. Lee go to bed?A. before twelve o'clocB. after twelve o'clocC. when the bell rangD. when he saw the boy2.

Some people seem to thin it's for practicing grammar rules and earning lists of words—the longer the list, the better. That's wrong．Language is for the echange（交流）of ideas and information．It's meaningless nowing all about a language if you can't use it freely. Many students I have met now hundreds of grammar rules, but they can't spea correctly or fluently（流利地）．They are afraid of maing mistaes．One shouldn't be afraid of maing mistaes when speaing a foreign language. Native speaers mae mistaes and brea rules, too．Bernard saw once wrote, "Foreigners often spea English too correctly．"But the mistaes that native speaers mae are different from those that Chinese students mae. They're English mistaes in the English language．And if enough native speaers brea a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong becomes right．People not only mae history, they mae language．But a people can only mae its own language．It can't mae another people's language. So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn't overdo（做过头）it. They should put communication first.8．Language is used to ________.A．epress oneself B．practise grammar rulesB．tal with foreigners only D．learn lists of words 9．Generally, when an American or an Englishman speas English, he ________.

This year’s slogan (标语) is “Breathe Easily, Sleep Well”. Its aim is to celebrate the benefits of good and healthy sleep.Sleep is lie food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students aged 10 to 17, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night.But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start time and heavy homewor. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they eep worrying about their schoolwor and can’t fall asleep quicly. For others, they may even have insomnia which might eep them awae (醒着的)all night.These sleeping problems greatly affect people’s lives. Eperts have shown that lac of sleep for teenagers leads to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, the lac of sleep may mae them depressed (沮丧的).Lucily, with good sleeping habits, it is easier to fall asleep.

More often the doctors can’t fix the damage. Sometimes, they are afraid to try something to help because it is dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he operates on the brain.Dr. Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain.Dr. White tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different jobs, then he operated on them. He made the monkeys’ blood go through a machine. The machine cooled the blood. Then the machine sent the blood back to the monkeys’ brains. Wh en the brain’s temperature was 10℃, Dr. White stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the blood again. After their operations the monkeys were like what they had been before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them.4. The biggest difficulty in operating on the damaged brain is that .A. the time is too short for doctorsB. the patients are often too nervousC. the damage is extremely hard to fixD. the blood-cooling machine might break down5. With Dr. White’s new idea, the operation on the damaged brain .A. can last as long as 30 minutesB. can keep the brain’s blood warmC. can keep the patient’s brain healthyD. can help monkeys do different jobs6. What is the right order of the steps in the operation?a. send the cooled blood back to the brainb. stop the blood to the brainc. have the blood cooled downd. operate on the brainA. a, b, c, dB. c, a, b, dC. c, b, d, aD. b, c, d, a7. What mainly makes the brain operation possible?A. Taking the blood out of the brain.B. Trying the operation on monkeys first.C. Having the blood go through a machine.D. Lowering t he brain’s temperature.CIf we want to deal with the association(社交) between boys and girls properly, here are some “dos and don’ts” for you to follow.Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. It is very nature for the boys and girls to make friends with each other. We should make as many friends as possible. We should keep in touch with the other sex in public instead of in secret.Don’t be too nervous or too shy. If you are a shy person, you can also find a way out. You can make friends with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you. As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.Don’t fall into the ditch of early love. The boys and girls at a adolescence (青春期) are rich in feeling. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, early love is a green apple that can’t be eaten. An apple won’t taste sweet until it is full ripe. Boys and girls at middle school are too young to carry the heavy duty of love. Do keep out of early love.8. We should keep in touch with the other sex in following ways EXCEPT .A. with a good state of mindB. in real friendshipC. in publicD. in secret9. If you are a shy person, you can .A. find friends with the same interest and hobbyB. only have a few friends of the same sexC. not make friends with the other sexD. not fall in love with other students easily10. What does the underlined sentence probably mean?A. Don’t get into the habit of early love.B. Don’t be addicted to early love.C. Don’t be trapped in early love.D. Don’t be confused by early love.11. The main idea of the passage is to .A. tell students to keep away from early loveB. give some advice on how to associate between boys and girlsC. tell students how to make friendsD. teach boys how to talk with girlsDTwelve years ago, I arrived in Central Florida from Puerto Rico. I had heard of a job opportunity and decided to pursue it, but it never became a reality. I quickly learned that being alone without resources in an unfamiliar city was not a comfortable situation to be in.Once my limited funds ran out I became homeless and spent a year and a half living on the streets of Orlando. Apart from feeling not being noticed and missing my family, I had to face another challenge—hunger.For the first time in my life, I, as a foreign man, who had lived my life in the relative comfort of the middle class, understood the frustration someone feels when they don’t get enough to eat. I clearly remembered having run a distance of more than 7 miles on many occasions just to make it to a local feeding program before they closed at 7 pm.Once the need for food was met, the next challenge would arise—where to find a place to sleep for the night. Fortunately, local programs like the Coalition for the Homeless, Second Harvest Food Bank and the Wayne Densch Center were an important part of my ability to survive my painful experience.With the help of these programs, I was accepted by a college scholarship program through the Coalition and obtained two degrees from Valencia.My experience has helped me understand that devoting my life to helping others offers lasting rewards. Today, I am employed as Childhood Hunger Programs Managerat Second Harvest Food Bank and oversee the summer feeding, Hi-Five Kids Pack, and Kids Café programs. I am so proud to be able to distribute food resources to those wonderful programs and help hundreds more like me.12. What can be inferred from Paragraph 1?A. The author wouldn’t go to Central Florida again.B. The author felt hopeless in Central Florida at that time.C. Florida was not a good place for people living there at that time.D. People like to live with friends in a familiar city.13. Why did the author run a distance of over 7 miles on many occasions?A. Because he didn’t want to be late for work there.B. Because he desired to get some food to eat.C. Because he went there to help the poor.D. Because he helped distribute food resources to the poor.14. Before being accepted by a college scholarship program, the author .A. had lived with his relatives happilyB. had won his degree in a universityC. had been struggling financiallyD. had lost hope of facing the future15. From his experience, the author learns that .A. people can learn a lesson from difficultiesB. people may suffer a lot in an unfamiliar cityC. people should not give up even in troubleD. people might be rewarded if they’re kind to others第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的（A、B、C、D、E、F、G）选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
