2021-2022学年湖南师范大学附属中学高一下学期第一次月考英语试题时量:150分钟满分:150分第一部分听力(共两节,满分30分)略第二部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
AFood Festivals Around the WorldStilton Cheese RollingMay Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes, roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors’ lane(赛道). Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors are served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.Fiery Foods Festival — The Hottest Festival on EarthEvery year more than 10, 000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction-food that is not just spicy(辛辣的), but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper — officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing’s for sure-if you don’t like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn’t for you!La Tomatina —The World’s Biggest Food FightOn the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts La Tomatina-the world’s largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week’s events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes — official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50, 000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again — and for a much-needed wash!21. In the Stilton cheese rolling competition, competitors on each team must _____________.A. kick or throw their cheeseB. wear various formal clothesC. roll a wooden cheese in their own laneD. use a real cheese weighing about four kilos22. Where is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival held?A. In China.B. In New Mexico.C. In the Caribbean.D. In Australia.23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. An exciting tomato battle takes place at the beginning of La Tomatina.B. More than 10,000 Chinese take part in the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival.C. The chief prize for the Stilton cheese rolling competition is beer or port wine.D. Thousands of spicy foods are on show in the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival.BEach year people are crazy about different ceremonies. Many graduation ceremonies look special and different. But for Melody, it looked so unique because of the classmate who graduated alongside her — her grandmother, 75-year-old Pat Ormond. They both went to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) and graduated together.Pat took her first college class 42 years ago. After one semester, she dropped out to move to Chattanooga, where she spent the next several decades working as an accountant and raising a family. While she did take an occasional class at UTC, she says her family continued to encourage her to go back to finish her degree, especially after she retired. She agreed when her granddaughter decided to move to study psychology at UTC after a year at Berea College. They both entered UTC with enough college credits to make graduating together a possibility.Pat and Melody graduated on November 20 as part of UTC’s 2020 class. The achievement has also made Pat somewhat of a celebrity.“We are so proud to have graduates like Melody and her grandmother, Pat Ormond, in the UTC class of 2020,” said Steven, UTC Chancellor. “Together, they personify the determination, commitment and love for lifelong learning we encourage in every UTC graduate.”Pat hopes that she can be an example to other non-traditional college students who want to get their degrees. “Learning never stops,” Pat said. “That’s something that my father taught me when I was young. No matter what you do, learning never stops.” Pat isn’t planning to stop anytime soon. She’s already working on another degree-a bachelor’s degree in history.Meanwhile, her granddaughter, who is hunting jobs, is interested in getting a master’s degree in clinical psychology so she can become a lawyer. But she says she’s in no rush. Her nanna has taught her that she has plenty of time.24. Why was Melody’s graduation ceremony so special?A. Because her grandmother graduated alongside her.B. Because her grandmother was 75 years old.C. Because it looked quite different from others.D. Because she celebrated it with all her classmates.25. What can we know about Pat’s family?A. They are anxious to be celebrities.B. They prefer attending non-traditional colleges.C. They never stop creating opportunities.D. They support and encourage each other.26. What does the underlined word “personify” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Repeat.B. Represent.C. Identify.D. Follow.27. Which of the following can best describe Pat Ormond’s story?A. Love me, love my dog.B. Passion gives life power.C. A good beginning is half done.D. It’s never too late to learn.CIn the Beijing Winter Olympics, we were treated to incredible displays of athleticism(运动才能) as competitors took to the snow and ice. As a popular sport at the Winter Olympics, ski jumping is one of the best examples to show the “superhuman” power of athletes.Ski jumpers soar into the air and appear to be almost flying in the sky. How do they achieve this? Physics can offer us an explanation of how they achieve this goal. It involves the application of the laws of aerodynamics(空气动力学) to fight against gravity and increase lift while reducing drag.To understand how ski jumping works, we need to consider three elements: gravity, lift and drag. Gravity is the force that pulls us towards an object, such as the Earth. Lift occurs when an object is moving through the air — as its surface comes into contact with air particles(微粒), the particles are pushed down and away from the object, allowing it to move up. At the same time, this interaction creates drag, or resistance, and slows down an object’s movement.While there is nothing that the skiers can do about gravity, they can twist their bodies into positions that allow them to achieve greater lift and avoid as much drag as possible. According to the Smithsonian Magazine,” to do this, athletes align(调整) their skis and body nearly parallel(平行的) to the ground and place their skis in a V-shape just outside the form of the body. This position increases the surface area that generates lift and puts them in the ideal angle of attack(迎角) that will also maximize lift.”Because of how the sport works, athletes’ equipment is strictly controlled according to weight and height in order to avoid any unfair advantages. This means suits must be tight in order to ensure athletes cannot use them as a way to gain more lift.For athletes, minor day-to-day water weight changes as little as 300 grams. It can mean that suits will not be tight enough according to their body mass indexes.28. What contributes to lift in ski jumping?A. The force of gravity.B. The upward force of air.C. The interaction between athletes and air particles.D. The interaction between air particles.29. Which of the following is NOT a technique used by ski jumpers in order to achieve the best performance?A. Keep their bodies parallel to the ground.B. Maximize the angle of attack.C. Keep their skis aligned with the ground.D. Position their skis in a V-shape when they jump.30. What rule is adopted to ensure fair play in ski jumping?A. Equipment must match an athlete’s weight and height.B. Athletes must strictly control their weight.C. Athletes are grouped according to their body mass indexes.D. Standardized equipment is used to avoid unfair advantages.31. What’s the main idea of the article?A. The techniques used by ski jumpers.B. Some rules of the ski jumping competition.C. The scientific principles behind ski jumping.D. How the laws of aerodynamics work in sports.DWe all love our parents and turn to them when we’re in need, but would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends in the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become virtual extensions of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends?In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with the latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day-to-day lives as they always had because they had no need to be tech-savvy(精通技术的). However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “ When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to exert their independence.”Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow when you do choose not to add them to your friends list.32. Many parents teach themselves social networks because _____________.A. they are not content with their daily lifeB. they regard social networks importantC. they are curious to explore new technologiesD. they want to view their children’s online activities33. What might be the reason for teens to reject their parents’ request?A. They can’t choose friends around them.B. They have nothing to hide.C. They don’t want to teach their parents.D. Their privacy can not be guaranteed if so.34. A recent survey suggested that _____________.A. teens value their privacy and independenceB. a teen’s rejection means they have something to hideC. a teen’s rejection means nothing specialD. independence is everything teens desire35. What is most likely to be talked about next?A. How to bridge the generation gap.B. How to make friends on social networks.C. How to explain to parents about the rejection.D. How to use the social networking sites.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。

It is concerned about the royal family.BFor the past 13 years, Martin Burrows has been working as a long-distance truck driver. Spending up to five nights a week on the road can be a lonely business, leaving him with plenty of time to notice his surroundings. “I kept seeing more rubbish everywhere and it was getting on my nerves. I decided I had to do something about it,” he says. One day, he stopped his vehicle, took out a trash bag and started picking up the garbage. The satisfaction after clearing a small area was remarkable.Before his time on the road, Burrows spent over two decades in the military as a vehicle driver. His service saw him stationed throughout Europe and also on tours in Afghanistan. After returning to civilian life, he was diagnosed with PTSD(创伤后应激障碍)and had a mental health crisis in 2017. His involvement in fundraising for Help for Heroes led him to meet a man who used model-building as a distraction from PTSD. Burrows realized that his act of roadside cleanup had a similar calming effect on his mental well-being.By 2019, Burrows had begun using his free time on the road to regularly clean up garbage. A passerby encouraged him to set up a Facebook group, which he called Truckers Cleaning Up Britain. “I was worried I'd be the laughing stock of my town for putting videos and photos up of me cleaning but people started to join,” he says. “I was amazed. The local council stepped in and gave me litter-picking supplies and we're up to almost 3,000 members now.”Since truckers are so often on the move, the Facebook page acts as a means of raising awareness rather than a platform for organizing cleanups. Burrows expressed his intention to continue the cleanup efforts as long as his physical condition allowed, as he still found joy in the process.4. What initially caused Burrows to pick up roadside garbage?A. He wanted to kill time by picking up litter.B. He aimed to raise fund for soldiers with PTSD.C. He felt annoyed to see the increasing rubbish.D. He received the assignment from his employer.5. How did collecting roadside garbage affect Burrows' PTSD?A. It resulted in his embarrassment.B. It increased his sense of isolation.C. It worsened his stress and anxiety.D. It brought him comfort and relief.6. What concerned Burrows when he started Truckers Cleaning Up Britain?A. He feared being teased for his action.B. He was lacking in advanced cleanup tools.C. He was unsure about the group's development.D. He worried about the local council's disapproval.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. A Joyful V olunteer ExperienceB. A Trucker's Cleanup InitiativeC. A Fighting Hero against PTSDD. A Platform for EnvironmentalistsCWhen most people think of drones(无人机), they think of technology and fun. Safe to say, few people would think about farming. However, a group of students from York College of Pennsylvania have been building a drone that will not only help local farmers but the environment, as well.Samantha Gotwalt and Blayde Reich, two senior Mechanical Engineering majors at York College in the group, both found the work to be quite fascinating. According to Samantha, the idea came from a York College professor, who has worked with drones, and wanted to get students involved with a project beneficial to the community. “We really want to help farming and agriculture. I's super-important to America and our economy,” Blayde says. “We want to help the smaller farmers, and one of the perks is not having to spend their money on fertilizer and pesticides(杀虫剂).”The idea is to design and build a drone that will take video imagery of the fields to determine what is needed to produce the best crop, while saving money and sparing the environment by reducing pollutants in the water runoff . Ideally, that data gained will help the farmers better determine what chemicals they need and what they don't.However, finding the right equipment for the project was a challenge, starting with what drone the team would design for this particular usage. Samantha says she researched durability and control of drones to help make the proper determination.“We are flying over the field and we want to have enough efficiency and go relatively slow enough that our pictures turn out well and fly low enough that it is not using up all of its power,” she says. “The fields are a couple hundred acres(英亩), so you need your drone to be able to fly the length of that field.”Blayde says the team continues to learn a great deal of information that will help the farmers and the environment.8. What does the underlined word “perks” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. challenges.B. features.C. benefits.D. solutions.9. What particular usage is the drone designed for?A. Spreading proper quantities of pesticides.B. Helping to determine the chemicals needed.C. Assisting to monitor the state of crops.D. Measuring the areas of the fields.10. What technical issue of the drone shall be tackled?A. Its camera capacity.B. Its data collection ability.C. Its durability and control.D. Its material and efficiency.11. What can best describe the students?A. Disciplined and realistic.B. Experienced and reliable.C. Humble and reserved.D. Responsible and creative.DAi-Da sits behind a desk, a paintbrush in her hand. She looks up at the person posing for her, and then back down as she applies another drop of paint onto the canvas(画布). A lifelike portrait is taking shape. If you didn't know a robot produced it, this portrait could pass as the work of a human artist.Ai-Da produces portraits of sitting subjects using a robotic hand attached to her lifelike figure. She's also able to talk, giving detailed answers to questions about her artistic process and attitudes towards technology. She even gave a TEDx talk titled “The Intersection of Art and AI” in Oxford several years ago. Ai-Da's creators have also been experimenting with having her write and perform her own poetry.But how are we to interpret Ai-Da's output? Should we consider her paintings and poetry original and creative? Are these works actually art?What discussions about AI and creativity often overlook is the fact that creativity isn't an absolute quality that can be defined, measured and reproduced objectively. When we describe an object—for instance, a child's drawing—as being creative, we project our own assumptions about culture onto it. Indeed, art never exists in isolation. It always needs someone to give it “art” status. And the criteria for whether you think something is art are formed by both your expectations and broader cultural conceptions.If we extend this line of thinking to AI, it follows that no Al application or robot can objectively be “creative”. It is always we—humans—that decide whether works created by AI are art.Some may see robot-produced paintings as something coming from creative computers, while others may be skeptical, given the fact that robots act on clear human instructions. In any case, attribution(归属)of creativity never depends on technical arrangement alone—no computer is objectively creative. Rather, the attribution of computational creativity is largely inspired by contexts of reception. Through particular social information, some people are inspired to think of AI output as art, systems as artists, and computers as creators. Therefore, as with any piece of art, your appreciation of AI output ultimately depends on your own interpretation.12. What can we learn about Ai-Da?A. She has a complex many-sided personality.B. She beat others in the debate on art and ALC. She is capable of drawing high-quality portraits.D. She can write poems without being programmed.13. What fact do discussions about AI and creativity often ignore?A. That art is content-based.B. That art can take many forms.C. That creativity is closely related to cultures.D. That creativity is often measured subjectively.14. What idea does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A. Every coin has two sides.B. Great minds think alike.C. Four eyes see more than two.D. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.15. What would be the best title for the text?A. Is AI-created Art Really Art?B. Will People Accept AI Artists?C. Can We Use Al to Create Portraits?D. Do We Need to Improve AI's Creativity?第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.6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。

To do his good deeds (好事), Rodney often finds leads for those in need through social media.Back to one August afternoon in 2015, Rodney Smith Jr. was driving home. That’swhen Rodney saw an elderly man struggling to mow (修剪) his lawn (草坪). He would take a couple of shaky steps, using the handle to secure himself, stop, then slowly push the mower (割草机)again. Rodney decided to help. Mr. Brown thanked him greatly, and Rodney went home feeling satisfied.Sitting at his computer to do his homework, Rodney couldn’t get Mr. Brown out of his mind. There must be many Mr. Browns out there. He went online and posted that he would mow lawns for free for senior citizens. Messages flooded in.One day a cancer-battling woman said she wasn’t having a good day. Rodney decided to do more than mowing lawns. After he finished mowing, he knocked on her door. “You’re going to win this fight, Madam”, he said. Then he asked folks to pray for her on social media.Word of Rodney’s mission spread. A grandmother in Ohio said he’d encouraged her 12-year-old grandson to mow lawns. He got a letter from a seven-year-old boy in Kansas. “Mr. Rodney, I would like to be a part of your program, and I’ll make you proud,” he wrote.That gave Rodney an idea. In 2017, he decided to establish a programme Raising Men Lawn Care Service to make a national movement for young people. The kids learn the joy of giving back.Yard work seems like a small, simple thing, but taking care of the lawn means a lot to the people they do it for. “When we mow their yards for free, they can use the money for healthcare and food etc. It means more than you would think,” Rodney said.24. Rodney drew attention for his ______. A.mowing skills B.dream C.driving distance D.generosity25. Why did Rodney knock on a lady’s door?A.To comfort her.B.To pray for her.C.To share gardening tips.D.To ask about her health.26. Where do Rodney’s decisions of mowing lawns for free come from?A.Social media.B.Personal success.C.Daily inspiration.D.People’s courage.27. What is the best title of the passage?A.Giving Free, Gaining FortuneB.Mowing a Lawn, Making a LifeC.Serving the Senior, Satisfying the SelfD.Changing a little, Challenging the LimitsAlmost everyone who has studied English has been warned about the way Brits love their manners. It is part of our national identity, as much as fish and chips or complaining about the weather. Recently I have been wondering where this comes from and I read online that we say sorry up to eight times a day. Probably the same amount of times that any other person says “hello” or “how are you”. It is almost like greetings to us! It was only when I was explaining how there are five steps of saying thank you when you buy something from a shop to a Mexican friend of mine that I realised how mad it sounded.After some research online I have not been able to find any specific reasons why we are the way we are. I suppose for centuries manners and how we eat at the table and talk to other people have been the barriers between the lower and upper classes and represent your social status. Britain has traditionally been a quite conservative country. There are many articles suggesting that this seemingly polite attitude of always saying please and thank you is quite false because it is impossible to always feel that you want to thank someone or say please.Maybe it is for this reason that people are going one of two ways: they are incredibly polite and hold back on their feelings or not polite at all, and express their true feelings. Some Brits are fed up of pretending that they are always content and having to please people. Sometimes because we feel we have to be polite, we are prevented from saying what we truly think. Do you think it is better to not hurt people’s feelings and be polite or to let people know the truth? In your country what is the custom? I know in some countries if someone is considered to be doing their job, the clients think that they do not need to be thanked.28. What does the author think of the British way of saying “Thank you”?A.Normal.B.Surprising.C.Exciting.D.Pleasing.29. What does the author want to find out?A.Why the British like to complain about the weather.B.Why the British love their way of showing manners.C.Why the British are fond of fish and chips so much.D.Why the British have five steps of saying thank you.30. What does the author think manners stand for centuries?A.Wealth andB.Social status.C.Politeness.D.Attitudes. health.31. Why do Brits feel sometimes they have to be polite?A.They want to express their true feelings.B.They want to let people know the truth.C.They are kept from saying what they think.D.They want to represent their social status.Yesterday, people on the social media site Twitter reacted with surprise and humor to a report that claimed, “Scientists have taught spinach to send emails.” That’s not exactly true, but the “news” is based on some amazing work done by MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) scientists in 2016, and it’s still worth learning about.Scientists at MIT have managed to change ordinary spinach plants into natural sensors which can detect chemicals used in bombs. Using a cheap and small computer system, the spinach can even send a warning email.The secret to giving spinach these special powers is nanotechnology. For this experiment, the scientists placed two different kinds of nanotech materials into spinach plants: some were tiny sensors; others were tiny tubes called carbon nanotubes. To get the tiny materials into the plants, the scientists put a liquid containing the nano-materials on the bottom of the plants’ leaves. That’s where the plants normally take in CO2 gas.Once the tiny sensors and nanotubes were in the spinach leaves, the plants did the rest of the work. As part of their natural process, the spinach plants pull water through their roots and into their leaves. If the water contains certain chemicals that are usedin bombs, the sensors in the leaves make the nanotubes give off a slightly different kind of light.By watching the plants constantly using a camera attached to a cheap computer, the scientists set up a system that can send a warning email if chemicals from explosives are detected in the water.The researchers say it takes about 10 minutes for the plants to react to the chemicals. The computer the scientists used is about the size of a playing card. They say that in the future, their system could even use a cellphone with its camera changed slightly. Detecting chemicals used in bombs is just one of the many uses the researchers are exploring. The scientists believe that in the future, such a system could give farmers detailed information about the health of the land and water on their farms.32. Why is the report mentioned in the first paragraph?A.To tell a joke made by MIT scientists.B.To introduce the health benefits of spinach.C.To criticize misleading news on social media.D.To bring up the topic of a scientific experiment.33. What is the function carton nanotubes in spinach leaves?A.To supply energy to spinach.B.To detect spinach’s lack of water.C.To measure CO2 absorbed by spinach.D.To make spinach shine in a special way.34. What do the scientists expect of their system?A.It will take effect immediately.B.It will be applied to agriculture.C.It will be expanded to other plants.D.It will use a playing card-sized cellphone.35. What is the text mainly about?A.Scientists teach spinach to send work emails.B.Scientists create spinach that can test for bombs.C.Scientists change the composition of spinach we eat.D.Scientists use nanotechnology to boost spinach production.Kids’ birthday parties are wonderfully fun for all, but in the way that they are traditionally celebrated, they are the enemy of “zero waste living”. A kid’s birthday party can produce lots of waste, from the plates, cups, and uneaten food, to the gift wrap, present boxes, and disposable (一次性的) decorations.It doesn’t have to be like that, though, as it is possible to hold a birthday partywithout waste. Here are some ideas on how to cut down on unnecessary waste and have a fun celebration.InvitationsForget the themed paper invitations; they get thrown away almost immediately anyway. 36 The mobile phone is a common communication tool which enables your guests to receive the invitation at any time.Decorations37 Stay away from them altogether, including balloons. If you must decorate, choose some reusable, classic decorations that can be pulled out every single year, such as colored lights. Make your own painted and personalized banner, paper hats, and so on. Keep them for the next year.FoodDon’t overdo the food preparation. 38 So you should put out only what is necessary, rather than ending up with loads of leftovers that are potentially ruined by the kids. Keep the rest for other meals. If other parents bring food, ask them to bring it in reusable containers.GiftsThe gift giving part of a birthday party can produce a lot of unappealing trash, which is why you should choose an alternative. My kids have gone to several “toonie parties (a toonie is a two-dollar coin in Canada), where each guest gives two dollars in their card and that money can be used by the birthday child to buy a single toy. 39 In my years of parenting, I’ve realized that kids mostly just want to play together.40 In other words, you don’t need to worry about it not feeling like a birthday. Furthermore, it will be a new and improved version that doesn’t include massive bags of trash at the end of the day.A.However, most parents find it hard to hold a “clean” party.B.Decorations can usually make the party room more attractive.C.Try using a basic email or phone call to create your guest list.D.Decorations for kids’ birthday parties are almost always disposable.E.They will create a party feeling without much assistance from parents.F.Kids hardly eat anything at birthday parties because they’re so excited.G.It’s a great idea for reducing waste and making a child’s birthday wishes come true.三、完形填空My son turned 14 and didn’t have a smartphone. He was the only kid in his class without one. When he asked for a phone, I _________ .“You can choose to do things _________ when you’re a parent.” I replied. But sometimes, I wondered if I was being too stubborn (固执的) or unfair.The more I research, the more confident I feel in my _________ . Many studies _________ the current mental health crisis among teenagers to changes in how they socialize, namely, the change from in-person to online _________ .But other parents _________ my view, saying “He must feel so left out!” Then there are the parents who tell me with sadness that they regretted not delaying their teenager’s phone _________ longer than they did. They _________ me to hold out. If teenagers are truly spending about 5 hours on average per day on their devices, as a recent research states, then what are they not doing? Kids _________ in their devices are missing out on real life, which strikes me a lot.I want my son to have a __________ childhood, one full of adventures, imaginative play and physical challenges. The simplest way to achieve these________ is to delay giving him a smartphone.Some think my son is missing out or falling behind, but he is not.

高一英语第一次月考试卷考试时间:90 分钟总分100分第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
ABook reading is certainly one of the most absorbing habits. For young adults who love to read, finding some good books to read is very essential. Writing a book review can help you to improve your language and writing skills.The Book ThiefListed on The New York Times Children’s Best Seller List for over 100 weeks, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak is the story of a young girl in the Nazi camps set during World War II. So, if you love history and wish to learn how the life was during Adolf Hitler’s time, read this historic book.The Diary of Young GirlEven Anne Frank can not have imagined that her personal diary written during World War II would become such a popular book. It’s a must read that describes the situation of a family in the evils of wars through the eyes of a teenager.Animal FarmAnimal Farm is one of the most popular books by George Orwell. It is just a reflection of the Stalin and World War II period that has been so creatively presented in this book. It is an interesting example of how literature can be used to present conditions common in the society.Adventures of Huckleberry FinnMark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is one of the great American novels in history, and is certainly a great pick for young adults. Young Huck Finn and his mischief along with the colorful description of people around the Mississippi River make this novel a great book to read.1. Which book describes the author’s own experiences according to this passage?A. The Book ThiefB. The Diary of Young GirlC. Animal FarmD. Adventures of Huckleberry Finn2. What do the first three books have in common?A. All of them are about wars.B. All of them are about farms.C. All of them are intended for history lovers.D. All of them were written during World War II.3. The purpose of this passage is to _________.A. instruct youngsters how to improve skillsB. tell youngsters some wonderful reading habitsC. introduce several good books to youngstersD. give youngsters advice on writing a book reviewBTwo years ago I was very lonely and didn't talk with anyone about my feelings. At the time I didn't have many friends. I wanted someone to share my experiences and secrets with. I wanted someone to understand me. I started to imagine this friend. Often I imagine our conversations and what we would do, but I didn't give my imagination a face.Some weeks later I started a new project in school and I was working with one of my schoolmates. We had never worked together before but we got along well. After the project we started to spend some time together in school. One day we decided to take a walk. Ever since that walk we've been friends. We listened and really understood each other.I had wished for a best friend, but the universe gave me so much more. I have met one of my soul mates(挚友). We can sense each other, and it just takes one look and we know what the other is thinking. I didn't think our friendship could grow much stronger. But now we have known each other for two years and our friendship is growing all the time.It hasn't only been easy. We have gone through both easy and hard times. But I'm grateful for the hard times, because they have forced me to grow and taught me a lot. My best friend has changed me. She has made me believe in myself. And I am now focusing on achieving one of my biggest dreams. Without her, I wouldn't even have realized what my biggest dream is.I know there are soul mates out in the world for you. I am so thankful to have met one of mine. Believe in them, and your paths will cross.4. What did the author do before meeting her soul mate?A. She chose to stay alone.B. She spent time with other friends.C. She told others about her feelings.D. She pictured a friend in her mind.5. How did the author get to know her soul mate?A. By taking a walk.B. By attending a party.C. Through a school project.D. Through a friend's introduction.6. What do we know about the author and her soul mate?A. Their friendship is still developing.B. She is the author's only soul mate.C. They are trying hard to realize their dreams.D. She has little confidence in their friendship.7. Why is the author thankful for the hard times?A. She went through them easily.B. She has learned a lot from them.C. They have made her suffer.D. They have made her dream come true.COn one occasion, while visiting my parents, I happened to meet the little boy who lived next door. It was obvious that his mother had told him not to come over uninvited. He was standing on the very edge of his yard with an anxious look on his face, seemingly about to burst.My father waved him over and performed the introductions. “Eliot, this is my son, Gary. Gary, meet my little friend, Eliot.” To my delight, he reached out his small hand an d I accepted the formality(遵守礼节) with a smile.Unlike most children, this teenager was not shy of meeting a stranger. As a matter of fact, he turned out to be quite a chatterbox. Eliot had me laughing as I listened to the excitement in his voice for, as you know, it was a big deal to find a toad (蟾蜍)! His descriptions were priceless as I asked the obvious questions concerning the capture(捕捉). He was pleased that I showed interest in his adventure and gladly explained its details.Since Eliot seemed so willing to invest in our budding friendship, I asked him a question, “Do you like banjo music?” He got very excited and answered me with a hearty “Yes!”I took out my banjo from the car, but when I sat next to him and started playing, Eliot looked at me wi th a puzzled expression. He asked me “What’s that?” in all seriousness.My dad and I smiled. The boy who just “loved” the banjo didn’t recognize that I was holding one and that what I was playing was “banjo music”.I realized that his heart was in the right place. Eliot just wanted to please his new friend with that “Yes”, thinking it was what I wanted to hear.Well anyway, Eliot likes the banjo for real now. And I like Eliot.8. When Eliot saw the author, he _______.A. came into the yard to greet the authorB. gladly introduced himself to the authorC. showed no interest in visiting a strangerD. was eager to get to know the author9. From the passage we know Eliot was ________.A. seriousB. shyC. talkativeD. dishonest10. The underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph suggests_________.A. Eliot just wanted to know something with the authorB. Eliot would like to spend money in developing friendshipC. Eliot looked forward to developing friendship with the authorD. Eliot was excited for not making friends with the author11. Why did Eliot say he loved banjo music?A. Because he hoped that the author was in high spirits.B. Because he believed banjo music was very interesting.C. Because he was really fond of such strange music.D. Because he hoped the author would teach him the music.DA teenager needs to have a sense of independence in their life to feel secure(安全的). To some teenagers independence means a lot to them, and I think that some parents don’t allow their teenagers enough independence.Independence has something to do with freedom. Some kids are not allowed to go anywhere alone, and the only thing their schedule includes is going to school, coming home, going to sleep, and repeating the process the next day. Parents tend to be afraid that their kids can get hurt if they go outside into the world. But if parents control their kids too much, they may never learn to live on their own. The best way for a teenager to learn lesson is through experience. I think it is beneficial for teenagers to have freedom.Teenagers’ lack of freedom can also stop them from having good friendship at school. Some might say this is a good thing, because it helps them focus more on their school work. I argue that this can only discourage them not to do their school work. Some parents do not allow their children to be around their friends outside the school, thinking that this will get them into trouble.But I don’t think so. Instead, isn’t this a good reason for parents to get their children a ce llphone? Cellphones allow teenagers to stay in touch with their parents, and communicate with friends.Privacy is another issue between parents and their teenagers. Teenagers tend to enjoy relaxation by themselves in their own room. This also gives them a sense of independence. It often annoys teenagers when their parents enter their room when they are not home. I know that my mom always goes in my room when I’m not home, and this has brought me to the point where I have asked many times to get a lock on my door.12.What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A.It benefits teenagers to have freedom. B.Some parents allow their kids no freedom.C.Kids know how to live independently. D.Kids have a dull routine every day13.In the opinion of the author, ___________.A.it is unnecessary for a kid to have a cellphoneB.kids should focus on the school workC.parents should make it easy for kids to communicate with their friendsD.good friendships between kids harm their school work14.How do teenagers usually feel when their parents enter their rooms in their absence?A.Angry B.Lucky C.Disappointed D.Calm15.The author hopes to have her door locked in order to ______________.A.keep her father from reading her dairy B.stop thieves from going inC.Protect herself from any harm D.prevent her mother entering her room第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

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 they have 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.4.During Senior One, what does the writer want to do first?A.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.5.What is the attitude of the writer towards failure?A.Discouraged.B.Brave.C.Worried.D.Careful. 6.What does the underlined sentence “it’s the other way around” in the last paragraph mean?A.It is the opposite.B.It is difficult.C.It is necessary.D.It is helpful.7.What is the writer’s purpose of the passage?A.To share her goals for the coming school year.B.To stress the importance of health to students.C.To show what she likes about high school life.D.To explain how to balance studies and activities.Last year, my Singapore-based sister insisted my mother and I join her for the Christmas. My mum, a fearless woman, would get strangely nervous on flights. Perhaps the only thing that convinced her to overcome her fears was the chance to piece together our declining bond.Growing up, moments with Mum were painfully short-lived because I spent most time at the boarding school, reuniting only during the holidays. Every year, she would eagerly await my return, which would always lead to constant loving scenes. Those cherished moments were gradually vanishing as I moved away for university. Soon, our relationship became tense. She seemed unable to comprehend me and her stubborn and old-fashioned advice forced me to shut myself. But the more I pulled away, the more I felt a longing for the bond that had grown so dim. Perhaps Singapore would give us a chance to breathe it back to life.I assumed the immersive exhibits at Art Science Museum would refresh my mother, who was an art student. However, I was surprised when she just turned her nose up at the Bruges Whale, a sculpture using plastic waste to raise awareness about ocean pollution. “It’s art, Mum! Be more appreciative.” I defended.Disheartened by the distance between us, I led her to the kid’s zone. We signed up for a joint sketching activity, hoping that would help us connect. As our creative juices flowed, our faded relationship began to take on the hues and shades of something sincere and beautiful.“Look!” she excitedly pointed towards a digital screen that displayed our creations. “That one’s ours.” Mum went up and reached out, touching the fish as it moved its tail back and forth in the virtual tank.Looking around, I saw children sharing moments with their parents, and my own childhood flashed back. That rare instance where she let slip an inner innocence and delight at a new experience revealed the little girl in her, who was like me, had lost a vital connection to responsibilities of motherhood.“Our time together was like that of friends. You were my mother, and I’m a child following you around.” My mum said to me with a smile.8.What made Mum accept the visit to Singapore?A.The resolve to overcome the nervousness on flight.B.The desire to restore relationship with her children.C.The sincere invitation of my Singapore-based sister.D.The expectation for Art Science Museum as an artist.9.What is the attitude of Mum towards the Bruges Whale?A.She felt it a huge waste to make it from plastic.B.She showed a great interest in this work of art.C.She didn’t think it good enough to be exhibited.D.She considered it beneficial to ocean protection.10.What can we learn from the sketching activity?A.It revealed Mum’s inner ignorance like a girl.B.It explored causes for faded bond between families.C.It let Mum totally lose responsibilities of motherhood.D.It provided an opportunity to share moments with families.11.What do Mum’s words imply in the last paragraph?A.A good medicine tastes bitter.B.Life has indeed come full circle.C.Actions speak louder than words.D.Nothing is impossible to a willing mind.Every 40 days a language dies. This “catastrophic” loss is being intensified by the climate crisis, according to linguists. If nothing is done, conservative estimates suggest that half of all the 7,000 languages currently spoken will be extinct by the end of the century.Speakers of minority languages have experienced a long history of persecution (迫害),with the result that by the 1920s half of all indigenous (土著的) languages in Australia, the US, South Africa and Argentina were extinct. The climate crisis is now considered the “final nail in the coffin” for many indigenous languages and the knowledge they represent.“Languages are already endangered,” says Anastasia Rachel, director of the Strathy language unit at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. Huge factors are globalization and migration, as communities move to regions where their language is not spoken or valued, according to Rachel. “It seems particularly cruel,” she says, “that most of the world’s languages are in parts of the world that are growing unpleasant to people.” Vanuatu, a South Pacific island nation measuring 12, 189 km2, has 110 languages, the highest density of languages on the planet. It is also one of the countries most at risk of sea level rise. “Marty small language communities are on islands and coastlines easily subject to hurricanes and sea level rise,” she says. Others live on lands where rising temperature threatens traditional farming and fishing practices, leading to migration.In response to the crisis, the UN launched the International Decade of Indigenous Languages (IDIL) in 2022. Promoting and conserving languages of indigenous communities is “not only important for them, but for all humanity”, said Csaba Korosi, the UN general assembly president, urging countries to allow access to education in indigenous languages. 12.Which statement best describes the facts of languages?A.Climate change is the only challenge for minority languages.B.Half of all the languages spoken will be extinct in the future.C.Climate crisis is a huge threat to many indigenous languages.D.Poor education is the direct cause of disappearing languages.13.Why is Vanuatu mentioned in paragraph 3?A.To explain the main reason for language density.B.To show the common features of endangered languages.C.To stress the impact of geographical position on migration.D.To illustrate the situation of minority language communities.14.What is the aim of the IDIL?A.Support migrants to access local education.B.Discourage people from massive migration.C.Protect the environment to reduce the temperature.D.Preserve the languages of indigenous communities.15.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.Faced with Disasters: Communities Have to LeaveB.Upset at Extinction: UN Urges International CooperationC.Lost for Words: Climate Crisis Brings Threat of CatastropheD.Involved in Action: Experts Seek Solutions to Climate CrisisGoing from middle school to the freshman year of high school is a big change. 16 .Be open to new friendships.High school is all about experiencing new things, including new friendships. Getting to know people you haven’t met before is a great way to broaden your horizons. 17 Simply sitting with a new person at lunch can be enough to get the ball rolling.Explore the campus.For most people, going off to senior high school means heading to a completely new campus. 18 . They might be able to show you around the campus, which will make you a bit more confident as you go on with your freshman year.Get organised.Senior high school and junior high school are very different. 19 . You can buy a planner and spend a few minutes each night going over the notes you took in class that day. Staying on top of your studies will make the transition(过渡) from middle school to high school much easier.20 .While there’s no need to plan every day for the next three years, it can’t hurt to make a note of classes you want to take or activities you’d like to try. Believe it or not, the three years will go by really fast. Having a plan in place will help you make the most of your high school experience.A.Create a three-year plan.B.Be open to new experiences.C.If you’re nervous, start small.D.That way, you’ll have a better idea of some of the things you can expect.E.Try to get as organised as possible so you can stay on top of your studies.F.If you worry about the unknown, reach out to the school and see if someone can help.G.Here are some ways to help you deal with anxiety and prepare for the first year.二、完形填空I fell in love with reading when I was a child. Through reading, I developed a good relationship with my parents.Born as a secondgeneration South Korean in America, I was raised in an environment in which my parents struggled to settle in American culture. My parents were awkward, strange and different. Their limitations as immigrants (移民) influenced me; as a child, I was alone and quiet. I grew up in a family where I was forbidden to speak English.

A novel.Once upon a time, there was a small village in the center of a big forest. All the villagers were used to their robotic farm work and none of them had the imagination or the will (意愿) to try something new, except for one girl named Jo. Very few could read or write, and Jo was one of them.One afternoon, when Jo was on one of her explorations in the forest, she came upon an abandoned cottage (废弃的小屋). Though she’d been warned to stay away from abandonedbooks! Jo’s excitement was huge when she realized she had found a hidden treasu re.She ran to tell the villagers everything, thinking that they would share her excitement but instead, she heard roars of laughter! Jo was confused by this reaction (反应) and a little hurt too, but she did not give up on her books.She came to the cottage every day and got down to reading the books. For her, each page was an adventure with characters who challenged difficulties with their determination and who struggled for good. Knowing the power of stories in impressing on people the values of life, she decided to share the stories with the villagers, though she knew it would be a difficult journey. Making this her mission (使命), Jo started telling stories every day at her cottage.In the beginning, only a few came to the readings. But word spread rapidly, causing more and more people to come, some of whom even traveled from far away to just listen to her stories. She also conducted workshops in which she taught people how to read and write. She was remembered and lived in her stories even after she was long gone.4.What do the underlined words “got the best of” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Prevented.B. Frightened.C. Cheated.D. Beat.5.Why did the villagers laugh when Jo told them her discovery?A. They already knew it.B. They thought nothing of it.C. It was related to something fun.D.

Determined and influential.7.What is a suitable title for the text?A. The Discovery of a Hidden TreasureB. Jo’s Journey: from Adventure to EducationC. The Power of Stories in Challenging DifficultiesD. Jo’s Adventure: Unearthing an Abandoned CottageMacquarie Island is a tiny island that’s part of Australia. It’s about half way between New Zealand and Antarctica. The island’s been made a world heritage area because it’s so untouched, but this unique environment is under threat from some unwanted visitors.It all started when seal hunters came to the island in the early 1800s. They brought rabbits with them as a source of food for the journey, and also on board the ships were rats and mice, which made their way onto the island too. They’re being blamed for destroying thephotos show.So what’s being done about the problem? It starts with a team of helicopters that fly across the island carrying these giant containers. Inside them are poisoned pellets (有毒饲料) which are dropped and spread across the island. For any rabbits that survived the baiting (诱饵) , there’s a plan B. This special team of dogs is being put through a final training. It’ll be their job to track down any remaining rabbits. They have to also learn to behave around the isl and’s native wildlife. The dogs could be here for years or until the task is complete. The dogs don’t actually kill the rabbits. They find them, then the hunters decide to either catch the rabbits or shoot them.But the program has received a bit of criticism. Some people argue 25 million dollars is a lot of money to be spending on wiping out rabbits and rodents (啮齿目动物), and in the process, some native birds will be killed because of the baiting.The reality is the problem isn’t going to be solved overnight. The people running the program say that even if one pair of rabbits is left alive, the whole task will be seen as a failure, which means these guys could be here for a long time, trying to ensure that this precious island remains protected from pests.8.Who are these unwanted visitors?A. Seal hunters.B. Marine wildlife.C. Native birds.D. Foreign species.9.What do the underlined words “ripping up” mean in paragraph 2?A. Advancing.B. Destroying.C. DividingD. Balancing10.What is being done to solve the problem of unwanted visitors on Macquarie Island?A. Poisoned pellets are being dropped on the island from helicopters.B. A team of hunters is being trained to catch or shoot rabbits.C. Native birds are being protected from the unwanted visitors.D. A special team of dogs is being sent to kill the rabbits.11.What is the goal of the program?A. To spend as little money as possible.B. To protect native birds from the unwanted visitors.C. To ensure that no pair of rabbits survive on the island.D. To train dogs to track down the rabbits on the island.On one side of the room sits a lovely life-size stuffed animal (毛绒玩具) you’ve ever seen. On the other side rests a real rabbit the same size, shape and even the same name as the stuffed version. You get to sit next to both of them and pet their fur. Guess which one will make your brain light up?If you guessed the real rabbit, you’re right. Stuffed animals, as lovely as they may be, just don’t supercharge (对……增压) our frontal cortex, the part of the brain managing how we think and feel, according to a new study published in the journal Plos One.Why is this finding important? “It provides additional evidence that live human-animal interactions may increase cognitive (认知的) and emotional activity in the brain. If patients with problems in motivation, attention, and socioemotional functioning show higher emotional involvement in activities connected to a rabbit, then such activities could increase the chance of learning and of achieving healing aims,” said the l eading author of the study, Rahel Marti, a doctoral student in the division of clinical psychology and animal-assisted treatment at the University of Basel in Switzerland.Researchers used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) in the study, which is a portable brain scanner that provides flexibility since it’s functional in natural settings and not limited to a closed room in a lab.The study team fitted each of the 19 participants with the scanner and asked them to observe and interact with one of the three live rabbits. First, participants watched the rabbit from across the room. Then the rabbit sat next to them. Finally, each person was allowed to pet the rabbit. This process occurred twice more at later dates.In other sessions, each person repeated the same sequence with a stuffed rabbit that contained a hot water bottle to make it have the exactly same body temperature of a live rabbit. In each of the sessions, brain activity rose as the live rabbit or the stuffed one moved closer.However, the study found an even stronger increase in brain activity when the person petted the fur of a real rabbit than the stuffed animal.“Positive non-verbal signals and interactions provided by a living animal could in part explain this difference,” said Dr. Tiff any Braley, an associate professor at the University of Michigan.12.How does the author develop the first paragraph?A. By giving an example.B. By using previous data.C. By making a comparison.D. By offering a choice question. 13.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A. Humans are more willing to interact with real rabbits.B. Live human-animal interactions prove to have healing effects.C. Only activities connected to a rabbit can help keep brain healthy.D. Rabbits have been used for treating psychological problems for years.14.What can we learn about fNIRS from the text?A. It is a brain scanner fitted on rabbits.B. It can change its size and shape easily.C. It allows the study to be conducted outside a lab.D. It ensures the accuracy of the results of the study.15.What can we infer from Tiffany Braley’s words?A. Lack of interactions with the stuffed animal does harm to the brain.B. Positive reactions given by the living animals can make the brain light up.C. It’s impossible to expl ain why there are different results of the two experiments.D. Children playing with a pet are sure to be happier than those with stuffed animals.二、七选五16.How satisfied are you with your life? How good do you feel every day? Your answers to those two questions can show how happy you are.It’s true that your happiness is partly affected by your genes. ①________ According to experts, happiness is a choice. It’s something that you can develop with continuing practice. Following these tried-and-true tips can help you find happiness.Be kind to yourself.Don’t compare yourself to others. Everyone has different talents and abilities. It’s OK that you’re not like someone else. Comparison has been called “the thief of joy”. In addition, forgive yourself often. ②________.Take breaks from social media.③________ Yet much of what appears on social media is not real.

By devoting time and attention to those who matter most to you, you can create lasting memories, deepen understanding, and strengthen bonds with each other happily.Get outside for exercise.Nature helps to reduce stress. Exercise and put your health in the first place. ⑤________ Just going on a walk can make a difference.Limit time you spend on news.Stay aware of recent events. But don’t spend hours consuming news, which usually includes negative stories and events.Since happiness is a choice, why not choose it? Life will look brighter filled with love and joy!A. You are not perfect.B. Invest in your relationships.C. Determine happiness through actions.D. You could perhaps lead a happier life and feel more satisfied.E. But even if you’re not usually a happy person, you can change that.F. People who get up and move are usually happier than those who don’t.G.
