AHave you ever felt that you want more friends? Have you foun d that you don’t know how to make friends? Don’t worry. It’s e asier than it looks.Start with small actions. If you’re uncomfortable with long con versations with people, start by just saying “hi” and asking wh at the person is doing. Even if you do more listening than talki ng in the beginning, people will usually still like you. When it c omes to conversations, remember “F.O.R.”. It stands for famil y, occupation(职业) and recreation(休闲). You are most likely to be asked about these three topics when you meet someone new. Most people feel comfortable t alking about the three topics. The great thing is that you alsocan communicate with someone new in these three areas. Honesty is the best policy. In friendship, “honesty” is the fund amental quality that one must have. One should always be ho nest with his or her friends. Don’t laugh at people’s fault. Prais e them honestly and openly. Say you are sorry if you hurt you r friend.Give more than you take. Be there when they need you, enco urage them; we all need encouragement now and then. Enco urage their dreams. Life seems meaningless without them. Wi sh your friends good luck. Examine your purpose before you “help out”. Love and never forget them.1.

People came in j ust to hear him play. But one night, a customer told him that h e didn’t want to hear him just play the piano any more. He wa nted him to sing a song.The man said, “I don’t sing.”But the customer was persistent (固执的). He told the bar manager, “I’m tired of listening to the pian o. I want that man to sing!”The manager shouted across the room, “If you want to get pai d, sing a song. Our customers are asking you to sing!”So he did. He sang a song. A piano player who had never sun g in public did so for the first time. And everyone was surprise d by his song —“Mona, Mona Lisa”. He got lots of applause (掌声) that night.He had such a talent for singing, but he just had been sitting o n his talent for the past years! If without such a chance, he ma y have lived the rest of his life as a no-name piano player in a no-name bar. However, now he had become one of the best-known singers in America.You, too, have skills and abilities. Maybe your “talent” is not a s great as the singer above, but it may be better than you thin k! And with effort, most skills can be improved. So, in your life, you should be brave enough to try doing different things and f ind out what talents you really have!4. Why did the man start to sing?A. Because he wanted to make more money.B.

2015-2016第一学期期末考试英语试卷
高一年级2015-2016期末考试试卷AWalter Macken, a famous novelist, playwright and actor, was born in Galway in 1915. He first began to write at the age of eight. He joined the Taibhdhearc in 1934, while still attending school. It was there he met his wife, Peggy Kenny, who was a news editor. They fell in love, but her father didn't approve of Peggy's choice, so they had to elope and got married in Dublin in 1937.Walter once worked as an insurance agency in London, selling insurance door to door and later took up the post of theatre manager with the Taibhdhearc. At that time, he began to write both in Irish and English. By 1946 his first play in English, Mungo's Mansion, had been successfully staged, and his first novel, Quench the Moon, had been accepted for publication.In 1949 his second novel, I Am Alone, was published, and a year later his third novel, Rain on the Wind, brought him international recognition, winning the Book of the Month Club and the Literary Guild award. A successful US theatre tour made him decide to return home to establish a career for himself as a full-time writer.In 1957 he started his greatest writing project: the three historical novels, Seek the Fair Land, The Silent People and The Scorching Wind, and in 1964 his first children's novel, Island of the Great Yellow Ox, proved to be one of his most popular books.

In the past days, only people with a good deal of money could travel on holidays to other countries while to common people, travelling was like a dream which would hardly come true.However, due to the fast development of economy and society, an increasing middle class appears in many parts of the world, more people travel today than in the past; that is to say, people now have more money and time for a trip. Kinds of plane fares and discounts(折扣) on different transports for tourists make travel less expensive and more attractive than ever before.

They also like to meet new people, taste new food and experience new customs etc.Many changes have taken place in a country and in people's lives because of tourism. For example, a large number of places in China have developed a theme of RED or GREEN tour to attract travelers and spread the local resources and products out around the world. In order to realize these wishes, people build new hotels and restaurants and train native men and women as guides to show visitors interesting places and persuade them into buying souvenirs(纪念品).

Within a few hours, an aggressive (好斗的) chicken attacked the two, killing Dudley’s brother and leaving him with a disability!While Dudley could swim with his single leg, he had a hard time walking on the firm ground. Determined to help him, Doug Nelson, the owner of the center decided to consult Terence Loring, founder of a design firm that offers 3D printing designs.At first Terence somewhat hesitated to take on a duckling as his first customer. But as soon as he saw brave little Dudley walking around on one leg, Terence knew he had to do something. Using his biomedical engineering training, Terence spent the next few weeks creating a 3D template (模板), after he found out how ducks’legs worked in YouTube videos about ducks. Once ready, he sent them to Ontario-based 3D engineering firm Proto3000, who agreed to print the leg.The second artificial leg was much stronger than the first one. When the artificial leg was fitted on Dudley, his whole manner changed. He wagged(摇摆) his tail and showed it off to his best friend -a pig called Elsie.Of course, as Dudley has been growing, the leg and foot have had to be replaced. But that hasn’t bothered Terence who continues to improve the design. The best part is that Terence has put all the designson his website so that anyone wishing to help out an animal suffering from a similar injury can do so, by simply hitting the print button on his/her 3D printer!(1) How did Dudley lose his leg?A. He was born with a disability.B. He wasn’t well looked after.C. He lost it in a traffic accident.D. He lost it in a chicken attack.(2) Why did Doug turn to Terence?A. Because Terence owned a company.B. Because he wanted to help the duckling.C. Because he wanted to join Terence’s company.D. Because he was interested in 3D printing.(3) What did Terence first do to make an artificial leg for Dudley?A. Watching You Tube videos about ducks.B. Creating a 3D template with the help of Proto3000.C. Being trained in biomedical engineering.D. Consulting Dudley’s owner about the solution.(4) What can we infer from the passage?A. The design has made Terence widely known online.B. Terence succeeded in his first attempt to make Dudley an artificial leg.C. More animals will benefit from the design.D. Dudley has got a permanent artificial leg.七选五Is Dieting (节食)OK for Kids?You may know some adults and kids who worry about their weight and say they're going on a diet. 36 But most kids do not need to—and should not—diet this way. Why? Let's find out.Dieting to Lose WeightAll foods and many drinks contain calories. When someone diets to lose weight, the person is trying to eat fewer calories than the body consumes. 37 Likewise(同样地), if a person eats more calories than the body consumes(消耗), the person may gain weight.Kids usually do not need to diet in this way. 38 During this time, kids need a variety of healthy foods to keep their bodies growing properly. Some kids are overweight, but even overweight kids often can improve their health simply by eating nutritious foods and being more active.39 But kids may hurt their health even more by doing something extreme(极端的), like skipping(遗漏)meals or deciding to eat only fruits.Who Needs to Diet?Though some people may feel they weigh too much or too little, there is no perfect body shape. Some people have larger frames (框架)and will always look bigger and heavier than people with smaller frames.Talk to your doctor if you have questions about your weight. Your doctor can examine you and check your body mass index(身体质量指数). 40 If the doctor is concerned about your weight, he or she can recommend a couple of ways to lose your weight. For some kids, the doctor may recommend(推荐)losing some weight, but this should be done with the doctor's help.A. By doing this, the person may lose body fat and decrease his or her weight.B.

The once typical British family headed by two parents has undergone great changes during the 20th century. In particular there has been a rise in the number of single-person households, which increased from 18 to 29 percent of all households between 1979 and 2002. By the year 2020, it is estimated that there will be more single people than married people. Fifty years ago this would have been socially unacceptable in Britain.In the past, people got married and stayed married. Divorce was very difficult, expensive and took a long time. Today, people ’s views on marriage are changing. Many couples, mostly in their twenties or thirties, live together without getting married. Only about 60 percent of these couples will eventually get married.In the past, people married before they had children, but now about 40 percent of children in Britain are born before their parents get married. In 2000, about a quarter of unmarried people between the ages of 16 and 59 were living together in Great Britain. Cohabiting couples are also starting families without first being married. Before 1960s, this was very unusual, but in 2001, about 23 percent of births in the UK were cohabiting couples.( )1.

高中英语真题:2015-2016学年高一下学期期末联考英语(A)试题 Word版.doc
高中英语真题:2015-2016学年高一下学期期末联考英语(A)试题Word版.doc一、阅读理解(共4题)1.Do you want to travel to cool places, meet foreigners, and learn a foreign language? If you want, consider a study-abroad program. No matter what country you live in, you can learn world trade in Japan, study art in France, or take dancing lessons in Ghana.Besides the excitement of travel, one reason to study abroad is that you will experience new customs, holidays, food, art and music. Andrew was a student who once studied in France. He said, “I learned French and now I can speak French fluently. When I was in France, I learned about cultures, people and myself. I learned a lot from the stand of a native member of the country, not from a tourist’s stand.”Another reason for studying abroad is that you’ll gain self-confidence. Christina studied in Caracas, Venezuela, a city of 10 million people. The city isdifferent from her hometown. Christina said she learned how to express herself in another language. That made her more confident.Living away from home can also help you adjust in the transition to college and adulthood. Matthew said he returned from studying in Australia with confidence and practic al knowledge. “After studying abroad in high school, I found the transition to college to be easy.

But rather than giving up, the film-maker managed to look up ways to treat his injuries on his iPhone beneath the earth. He also wrote a moving diary for his family, allowing them to read his last messages of love and comforting them after his death. Instead, he was pulled from the ruins after a week--- and would soon meet his family.Mr. Woolley, from Colorado Springs, America, had raveled to Iran with his colleague David Hames. Both had been working for Charity Compassion International. He was in the hotel when the earthquake struck. Buried undertons of ruins, the film-maker downloaded a first aid application to his iPhone. He used the instructions from the app to treat the serious bleeding. He used his shirt to tie off the injury on his leg and a sock to bandage the back of his head. The app advised him not to go to sleep if he felt sleepy. Mr. Woolley set his phone alarm to go off every 20 minutes to keep him awake.Mr Woolley used a small black notebook to write messages to his family, including his son and wife. He had thought his relatives would read them after he was dead.“ I was in a big accident. Don’t be upset at God,” he wrote. “ I’m still praying that God will get me out, but he may not. But he will always take care of you.”Mr Woolley was eventually rescued by a French rescue team. After being flown to Miami for surgery, he said, “I cried. At that time I wanted to use that time to do everything I could for my family. I always wanted to survive, but I knew that was something that I couldn’t control.”New technology really played a huge part in our life.4. In the diary, Mr Woolly noted that _________.A. he was looking for ways to surviveB. his iPhone was very usefulC. he wanted to do something for his familyD. this might be his last message5. Which of the following shows the right order of the events?a. He was trapped under the ruins.b. He downloaded a first aid application.c. He treated the injuries properly.d.

Nothing More Important Than Family3.The game of rugby football was played at Rugby School between 1750 and 1859, but players were not allowed to run with it in their hands towards the other side’s goal. With no limit to the number of players per side, hundreds would participate in it, sometimes resulting in major injuries. The innovation(创新) of running with the ball was introduced between 1859 and 1865. The popula r myth of the sport’s origin states that Rugby pupil William Webb Ellis broke the local rules by running forward with the ball in his hands in 1823. Rugby School produced the first written rules for their version of the sport in 1845.In the result that the teams still tied at the end of the match, a drop goal shootout was held. The selected kickers of the two teams would have one shot at the goal each and would take turns shooting at the goal until one of the kickers missed.In England, rugby unio n is widely regarded as an “establishment” sport, played mostly by members of the upper and middle classes. For example, many students at private schools and grammar schools play in rugby union. In France, rugby is also widely played and has a strong tradition in the Basque people along the border regions between Spain and France.The game is very popular in South Africa among both blacks and whites, having been introduced by English-speaking settlers in the 19th century. British colonists also brought the game with them to Australia and New Zealand, where the game is widely played. It has spread then to much of Polynesia, having particularly strong followings in Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga.An official rugby union ball is made of leather or suitable material. Rugby shirts were formerly made of cotton but are now made of a cotton and polyester (涤纶) mix. This material has the advantage of not absorbing as much water or mud as cotton alone.8. Which of the following statements is WRONG about the ancient rugby?A. Players often got injured.B. A great number of people could take part.C. Players could run forward with the ball in their hands before 1823.D. Written rules were first made in Rugby School in the 1840s.9. Why was a drop goal shootout made?A. To select outstanding players.B. To encourage the audience’s curiosity.C. To make the match exciting.D. To decide the winner of the match.10. The third paragraph mainly talks about _______.A. the popularity of rugby sportB. how rugby union was established in EnglandC. how British people spread the sportD. the origin and development of rugby11. Rugby shirts made of cotton alone ___________.A. are easy to absorb much water and mudB. are replaced by polyester shirt finallyC. are much more expensive than polyesterD. are much suitable to the players4.Weekend job?

One of the rules is that young p eople should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule ledto my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I sai d that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a l ong lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. Ithen walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. Afte r the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not s o many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who re ach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Y oung people always respect older peoplebecause they know they can learn from their rich experience. However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire (退休) or that the body is not working well. Here many people tr y to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercis es or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look you ng. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them , but now I don’t show my feelings through words.4.Jack brought the couple their food very fast because _______.A. the manager asked him to do soB. the couple wa nted him to do soC. he respected the elderlyD. he wanted more pay5. When Jack called the couple “elderly”, they became ______ _.A. nervousB. unhappyC. satisfiedD. excited6.After this experience, Jack _______.A. changed his way with older peopleB. made friends w ith the coupleC. no longer respected the elderlyD. lost his job in the resta urant7.Which of the following is TRUE?A. The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got.B. Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his e xperience.C. From this experience, Jack learned more about American c ulture.D. The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.CAlfred Nobel, the great Swedish inventor and industrialist, was born in Stockholm on October 21, 1833, but moved to Russia with his parents in 1842, where his father, Immanuel, made a strong position for himself in the engineering industry. Imman uel Nobel invented landmine and made a lot of money from th e government during the Crimean War, but went bankrupt soo n after. Then, the family returned to Sweden in 1859, where A lfred began his own study of explosives(爆炸) in his father’s lab. He had never been to school or univer sity but had taught himself, and by the time he was twenty, he became a skillful chemist and excellent linguist(语言学家), speaking Swedish, Russian, German, French and Engli sh. He built up over 80 companies in 20 different countries. H e was always searching for a meaning to life. He spent much t ime and money working on how to end the wars, and the pea ce between nations, until his death in Italy in 1896. His famou s last will, in which he left money to provide prizes for outstan ding work in physics, chemistry, physiology, medicine, literatu re and peace, is a memorial to his interests and ideas. And so , the man is remembered and respected long after his death.8.Where was Alfred Nobel born? He was born in ________.A. SwedenB. MoscowC. RussiaD. Stockholm9.What did Immanuel Nobel invented during the Crimean War ?A. Landmine.B. A strong position.C. The engineering industry.D. Study of explosives.10. Alfred Nobel built up more than________ companies in diff erent countries.A. 80B. 60C. 40D. 2011. What was Alfred Nobel always searing for? ________.A. More time and more moneyB.How to end the warC. A meaning to lifeD. The peace between nati onsDNapoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana(加纳), Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every m orning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water fo r her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get e nough clean water for daily(日常) cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or t o play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can’t get enough clean water to keep healthy.Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also rem ember it. The water we use is the most important natural reso urce(自然资源) on the earth.Water covers 70% of the earth’s surface(表面). But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for very man y things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth’s surface. Y ou probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water. W e all face serious water problems. One of them is water polluti on. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is ver y bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. N ow, 34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they p ollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain(酸雨), is also bad for plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn h ow to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water:●Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liters(升) each month.●Leaky taps(漏水的龙头) waste a lot of water. Fix them right away!●You can easily cut your 10-minute showers(沐浴) in half—and you’ll be just as clean.●When you wash dishes, don’t let the water run.●Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your was hing machine isn’t full, you’re wasting water!12. Every morning Napoga went to get clean water _______.A. before she went to schoolB. after she finished school C without going to school D. after she played with her frie nds13. On the earth, _______.A. sea water is widely used than fresh waterB. we don’t need to worry about waterC. there is 71% of fresh waterD. there is very little water for our living14. Acid rain _______.A. is only bad for living thingsB. can be produced in factoriesC. doesn’t just do harm to human beings but to animals, plant s and buildingsD. doe sn’t do harm to people, but it’s bad for plants, animals a nd buildings15. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Something must be done to prevent water form being pollut ed.B. It’s time to take care of the water we use.C. Clean water means much to human beings and living thing s around us.D. Water is the most important natural resource on the earth. 第二节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,共7.5)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项选出能填入空白的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
