17—18学年上学期高一期中考试英语试题(附答案)(19)
2017-2018学年第一学期期中试卷高一年级英语第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
ASharon, Aged 22The most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. Besides, I don't know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It's best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to. Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didn't really know anyone. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it.David, Aged 19I'm not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening (令人恐惧的). But you'll get used to it. Don't be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you're afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it's really not bad at all. Don't worry.21. What can we infer from Sharon about high school?A. Teachers are quite strict.B. Students often stay up at night.C. Teachers provide little care for students.D. Students should make good use of their time.22. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A. Excited.B. Bored.C. Worried.D. Relaxed.23. Who mentions the importance of friends?A. Frank.B. David.C. Sharon.D. Eddie.BThe English language has a lot of words which can be used in many different ways and in many different expressions.One such example is the word matter. In fact, matter can mean just about anything. It could be one of the most useful words in the English language.Let's get to the heart of the matter — a matter of principle (原则).If someone says that you owe (欠) him $50, but you don't, a friend might say, “Well, you could pay him t he $50. It's not that much money. Then you won't have to hear him say it anymore.” But if you do not owe him the money, do not pay him the money. It's a matter of principle.There is another way to use the word matter. But be careful with your choice of words.If you ask someone, “What's the matter?”, it shows you are worried about the other person. But saying, “What's the matter with you?” has a completely different meaning. And it usually sounds rude (粗鲁的). In fact, when you say, “What's the matter with you?”, you are suggesting that the person did something wrong or stupid.Another expression that could sound rude is to say, “It doesn't matter to me.” Here, it depends on the context, and how you say it.Let's say you tell someone that a friend just got a big raise at work. That person answers with, “It doesn't matter to me.” Here, it means he or she does not care. And it sounds rude.But saying, “Oh, you pick where we eat dinner. It doesn't matter to me.” does not sound rude. In this situation, “it doesn't matter” shows you are easy-going (随和的).No matter how you look at it and what you say, matter is a very useful word. And it's only a matter of time before you will become an expert on the use of matter.24. We can infer from the text that the word matter _____.A. has a wide useB. can mean moneyC. is the most used English wordD. has the most different expressions25. What is the author's suggestion in Paragraph 4?A. Every penny counts.B. Stick to what is right.C. Follow your friend's advice.D. Be careful when making friends.26. The underlined word “context” in the text probably means _____.A. choiceB. personC. situationD. answer27. The author develops the text mainly by _____.A. using examplesB. giving instructionsC. describing his experiencesD. discussing research findingsCStudents from Oceanside High School in Rockland will be able to sleep in a little longer from this autumn.Regional School Unit 13 Superintendent (负责人) Lew Collins said during the school's Thursday night meeting that the schedule (时间表) for the schools will be changed. Oceanside East and West will start a half hour later, at 8 a.m. for their new school year.Research has shown that teenagers' brains are often not fully awake at 6:30 a.m. Collins said the schedule, which is used to get students to school for classes that begin at 7:30 a.m., calls for someto get on buses before 6 a.m. to get to school on time. Teachers are having meetings at 6:40 a.m., which is too early, he thinks.Collins visited the high schools in Rockland and asked students when they would like classes to begin. Most of them said 8:00 a.m. “I was surprised. I thought they would have said 9:00 or 10:00,” he said.The National Sleep Foundation says on its website that teenagers' biological clocks (生物钟) are designed to stay up later and get up later. The Foundation called for schools to change their schedules, which means a later start as well for elementary students (小学生).We do not have enough buses to run, since all the high school and elementary school buses run almost at the same time, Collins said. He suggested, “We should buy six more buses and get six more drivers to keep the new schedule working.”Elementary school classes in Rockland now start at 8:30 a.m., but will be moved to 8:45 a.m., starting in the autumn. “I know this is a problem for working parents, but we will see what we can come up with,” said Jane Brown, a teacher at Bardonia Elementary School. “Anyway, I believe if students get more sleep they'll be more ready to learn when classes start,” she added.28. A new schedule will be made to _____.A. add more interesting subjectsB. help students do better in classC. ask parents to learn about schoolsD. cut the number of meetings down29. One of the problems facing the schools in Rockland is that they will _____.A. be afraid of working parents' disturbanceB. be worried about children's safetyC. be short of school busesD. be short of teachers30. What does Jane Brown think of the new schedule?A. She is not certain about it.B. She is not interested in it.C. She is worried about it.D. She is hopeful about it.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican food are called red hots for their color and their taste. Fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red hot, especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the twentieth century. It probably comes from that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hotmusic. Blues is slow, sad and soulful. Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song—Mood Indigo—about the deep blue color, in digo. In the words of the song: “You aren’t blue till you’ve had that Mood Indigo.” Someone who is blue is very sad.The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A. passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green. Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy（羡慕嫉妒. Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars.The color black is used often in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day.21. If you had your wallet stolen while doing some shopping, you may call it___.A. a white dayB. a black dayC. a red dayD. a green day22. Suppose a Mr Brown says he is very happy because his three children are all in the pink, this means all his children are____.A. lucky and wealthyB. gentle and modestC. fit and healthyD. creative and energetic.23. When she got home and found nothing had been done by her husband, Jane was really____.A. red hotB. greenC. blueD. black24. In the following paragraph, the writer might tell the reader something about___.A. u npopular organizations in the worldB. people’s response towards a black dayC. the influence of the traditional bluesD. more words about a color, such as brownBHave you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a “territory”is? A territory（领地）is an area that an animal ,usually the male, claims（声称）as its own .Only he and his family are welcome there .No other families of the same species（物种）are welcome .Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, youmight shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him .A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time ,especially at nesting（筑巢）season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and i t is usually enough to keep an outsider away.Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.25. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually______. .A．an expression of happiness B．a way of warningC．an expression of anger D．a way of greeting26．What is a bird’s “territory”?A．A place where families of other species are not accepted.B．A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.C．An area for which birds fight against each other.D. An area which a bird considers to be its own27．Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?A．Because they want to invite more friends.B．Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.C．Because they want to find outsiders around.D．Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.28．How does the writer explain birds’singing?A．By comparing（比较）birds with human beings(人类).B．By reporting experiment results. C．By describing birds’daily life.D．By telling a bird’s story.CAs we get older, most of us worry about grey hair, wrinkles(皱纹) and maintain（保持）a youthful body. But people often don't realize the voice needs looking after. Here, Mr. Rubin, avoice expert, tells how to keep your voice youthful.Drink more fluid and avoid spicy foodYou need water for the vocal cords(声带) to vibrate(振动) well. The body must be kept hydrated enough to make the vocal cords operate well. Drinking 1.5 liters of water a day at intervals of 15 minutes is very important. Mr. Rubin advises avoiding foods with an annoying effect on the stomach, such as onions, chili, fizzy drinks and chocolate.Rest the throat and talk regularly（有规律的）The vocal cords can be scared if you use your voice during a bad cough. If you have a case of laryngitis(喉炎) with a cold, you should rest your voice for a day or two, and seek medical advice. Simply staying sociable （社交的）and using your voice is very important. “As older people get less mobile, they can speak less.” says Mr. Rubin. “The old need to communicate with people more. By using the vocal cords, they enable the aging process to slow down. ”Improve your posture(姿势)Good posture is essential to keeping the voice young, so we'd better stand properly. Exercise helps you take deeper breaths as it means there is better airflow through the voice box, producing a stronger tone.Sing in the showerThis is one of the best ways to preserve your voice, as it keeps the larynx muscles strong while the steam lubricates(使润滑) the voice box.“Singing is gymnastics（体操）for the voice，”says Mr. Rubin. Joining a choir is one of the best ways to preserve a youthful tone.29．Mr. Rubin gives us advice on ______.A．ways to keep us from aging B．ways to keep our voice youthfulC．ways to talk with other people D．prevention of diseases caused by talking too much 30．Which of the following statements is TRUE in the opinion of Mr. Rubin?A．Taking more onions can keep us healthy.B．Professional singers' voices tend （倾向）to age quickly.C．The steam can do great harm to the voice.D．We should stand properly to keep our voice youthful.31．To protect the voice, the old people should ______.A．get less mobile B．lie in bed moreC．avoid using the voice D．communicate with others moreDHow to Be a Successful Language Learner?“Learning a language is easy. Even a child can do it!”Most adults who are learning a second language would disagree. For them, learning a language is difficult. They need hundreds of hours, and even this will no guarantee (保证) success for every adult language learner.But what does a successful language learner do? Language learning research shows that successful language learners are similar in many ways.First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They don’t depend on the book or the teacher; they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues（线索）and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes.Succes sful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learners don’t wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear; they are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It’s more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they’re interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them.What kind of language learner are you? If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently, actively, and purposefully. If your language learning has been less than successful, you might do well to try some of the ways above.32.The writer of this passage wants to tell us ___ .A. learning a language is easyB. ven a child can learn a second languageC. how to be a successful language learnerD. learning a language is a very difficult task33. Successful language learners are similar in many ways. How many ways did the writer mention in this passage? A.2 B.3 C.4 D.534. According to this passage, when you don’t know the meaning of a word in the text ___ .A. you should look it up in the dictionary at onceB. you should ask your teacher for helpC. you should guess the meaning of the wordD. you should ask your deskmate35. If you want to learn English well you should ___ .A. learn it from a famous teacherB. try to look for any chance to use itC. remember as many patterns and rules from your teacher as possibleD. recite as many passages as possible第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

学17—18学年上学期高一期中考试英语试题(附答案)(2)
2017-2018学年度上学期期中考试高一英语试题第二部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2 分，满分40分）AOn a Sunday morning, I was driving down a road and saw something I couldn’t believe. A little girl, less than two, was pushing her stroller (婴儿车) across the road. It was Sunday morning and traffic was not heavy.I stopped my car at once and ran toward her. This little girl knew enough to run from a stranger. I tried to catch her in order that I could get her out of the road.Suddenly her father came running down a hill across the road from where I had parked my car. He ran right to her and caught her up, saying “bad girl” to her. I picked up the stroller and gave it to him. The father grabbed (抓住) the stroller and walked toward where he came from without a word.I went back and sat in my car for a few minutes with my son. My hands were shaking and tears were about to run out of my eyes. “Do you feel cold, Mom？” asked my son. I just shook my head.After this happened, I thought about how thankful I was. Even though the father didn’t say thank you, I feel that I did something good. Doing something for someone else is pleasing, even when it’s only a matter of being in the right place at the right time.I didn’t really “save” her, but I feel like it w as important that I happened to be there. It is sad that I was the only one who stopped. It really made me a little disappointed that no one else stopped to help.21．When the author saw the little girl, ________.A．the girl had lost her wayB．she was driving to work in a hurryC．the girl feared to go across the roadD．there weren’t many cars on the road22．The little girl ran away from the author because ________.A．she wanted to stay on the roadB．she didn’t know the author at allC．she wanted to look for her fatherD．she needed to catch her stroller23．Why were the author’s hands shaking?A．Because she was not feeling well.B．Because she was too excited to keep calm.C．Because the weather was very cold at that time.D．Because she failed to be understood by the girl’s father.24．The author thought that her help was ________.A．really necessary B．worth praising C．not welcome D．not usefulBOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. You have to be with them in both good and bad times. In return, they will be there for you. But how can you be a good friend?Listen. Listen when they are talking. Keep eye contact. Don't say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes you're not required to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them. If your friends are ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don't become their slave (奴隶). Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes as they may forget to take one. Have a few extra dollars in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them. Try to make something for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times. Making cards and baking things are among the nicest things you can do for a friend when they are in hard times. Marilyn Monroe once said, "I'm selfish, impatient (急躁的) and a little insecure. I make mistakes, and I am out of control and at times hard to deal with. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you surely don't deserve (值得) me at my best. " Always remember this! If you don't want to deal with your friends when they're depressed, then you don't deserve to be with them during those parties where you have a good time!Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for an ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Make time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy.These are the things you'll remember once you're all long graduated when looking back on your life !25. We can learn from the passage that _ .A. we must be careful when we choose our friendsB. friends should share happiness as well as problemsC. keeping long friendship is not easyD. everyone can be a good friend26. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. You should help your friends just as a friend.B. You should help your friends anytime anywhere.C. You should do whatever your friends ask you to do.D. You should always put your needs before your friends'.27. Marilyn Monroe's words are mentioned to tell us that____.A. everyone has ups and downs during their lifetimeB. we should just share our happy times with our friendsC. we should be there when we are needed by our friendsD. we should learn to forgive our friends when they are wrong28. What are we mainly advised to do in the last paragraph?A. To spend time with our friends.B. To look back on the happy times.C. To get to know more friends.D. To know what is worth doing.CPets are popular. They’re good listeners, they encourage us to exercise, and they’r e always on our side when we argue with others. They can bring people comfort and pleasure.But it is important to keep in mind that pets can carry diseases that can make you sick. Washing your hands often — especially after you touch, feed, or clean up a pet — is the best way to keep yourself healthy and prevent the spread of disease. Be sure to clean your fingernails carefully every time you wash.You also can protect your health by wearing gloves while cleaning animal cages or cat litter boxes. Avoid washing your pet in the bathtub (浴缸), but if you do, always disinfect (消毒) the tub immediately afterward.Be sure to bring your pet to the hospital for examinations every two weeks or month and whenever your pet is sick or injured.You can do a few other things to keep yourself and your pet healthy. Only give your pet food that has been planned ahead for them. It’s not a good idea to share your food with your pet. Human food (like chocolate) can make animals sick. Never feed your pet raw (生的) meat because it can carry germs (细菌) that cause serious illness.And funny as it can be to see your dog or cat drinking from the toilet, don’t let pets do this. It’s bad for your pet’s health! Give them clean, fresh water to drink at all times.Never give mil k to cats. The only milk an animal should drink is from its mother. Cow’s milk is not for pets, especially for cats, as it makes them sick.Finally, some animals aren’t pets. Don’t take in a wild or abandoned animal as a pet because it may have diseases that could make you or your family sick. Instead, turn to an animal rescue group that is trained in helping sick or abandoned animals.29．The first paragraph mainly tells us that pets can ________.A．be great friends B．bring us pleasureC．help us keep healthy D．do harm to us30．The underlined word “it” in Para. 7 refers to “________”．A．the cow B．the mother catC．cow’s milk D．mother cat’s milk31．Which is the RIGHT way to feed your pet?A．Sharing your chocolate with your dog.B．Letting your dog drink from the toilet.C．Feeding your little cat with raw meat.D．Giving your cat cooked fish.32．According to the text, when you meet an abandoned dog, you should ________.A．call an animal rescue groupB．bring it back to your homeC．give it first aid in timeD．help to find its ownerDAre you scared about moving up to senior high school？It can be a new experience, but you shouldn’t worry. We’ve put together a guide on how to survive the first week.You’re not aloneRemember everybody else in your year is in the same boat. They may not realize it, but they’re just as nervous as you are. Moving to senior high is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.Teachers are ready to helpIf you’re unsure what to do or are worried about anything, then you had better ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they’re experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student. They will look out for you and help you if you have any problems or questions.All changeThere are lots of differences between junior high school and senior high sch ool. You’ll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects.Other pointsIf you’ve got an older brother or sister at the school, then ask them for advice.Be yourself! It sounds simple, but people will know you much better if you just act naturally. Having early nights makes a difference and you’ll find it easier to get up in the morning! 33．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A．Other students have similar feelings to yours.B．Other students have to learn boating with you.C．Other students will help you solve your problems.D．Other students will teach you politeness and new rules.34．The new students turn to teachers first when having problems because ________. A．teachers won’t blame them as parents doB．teachers are good at helping solve problemsC．teachers are equal to every studentD．parents are too busy to help them35．What’s the purpose of the passage?A．To tell students the importance of learning.B．To warn students not to ignore friendship in senior high.C．To make a difference when moving up to senior high.D．To help new students to get used to life in senior high.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The true v alue of a diamond is never known until it has been cut. Once cut successfully, its value can increase a thousand times. It’s easy to understand why the owner of the Joker diamon d went to the best diamond cutter he knew, Kaplan. The cutter studied the diamond for twelve whole months.When he felt he was ready to start work, he discovered a fl aw (瑕疵). He had to begin with his calculations (计算) all ove r again, or he might have made the stone useless. Six more months passed, and Kaplan finally said to the owner, “I am re ady to start my work. There will be one excellent diamond that will be comparable to any in the world, plus eleven small dia monds of first-class quality.” Kaplan waited a few more days until be felt he was in the best physical and mental condition possible.

中学17—18学年上学期高一期中考试英语试题(附答案)(2)
2017-2018学年第1学期高一英语期中考试题（笔试答题时间120分钟，满分135分；另加听力15分；总分150分）第I卷第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）第一节:话题语篇（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A ★★English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary —perhaps as many as two million words.However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoes (探索它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, should’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese —so one moose, two meese?How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.1. According to the passage ________.A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different thingsB. there should be egg in an eggplantC. pineapples are the apples on the pine treeD. boxing rings should be round2. Which of the following is the correct plural?A. Beeth.B. Geese.C. Meese.D. Tooth.3. Which of the following includes two items that have the similar meaning?A. A wise man and a wise guy.B. Overlook and oversee.C. Hot as hell and cold as hell.D. Quite a lot and quite a few.B ★★People who like travelling have their reasons. They believe that travelling can help them expand their field of view, especially in the geographical and historical sense. They also think that touring will give them more chances to enjoy different kinds of food and experience new things that would never be brought by other activities. But those who dislike travelling also have some reasons.Travelling, in my opinion, does more good than harm. Most importantly, it broadens (使扩大) our mind. We can get in touch with other civilizations (文明), cultures, customs and ideas.Through history, most people travelled because of necessity (必要性)—not for pleasure. People travelled just in order to remain alive. They searched for food to eat or places to live in. They sometimes ran away from enemies. This is not to say that no one ever travelled just for the fun of it. In ancient times, for example, rich Romans travelled all the way to Greece to take part in the Olympic Games, and festivals. Of course, some people decided to travel just out of curiosity (好奇心). They wanted to find out what it looked like beyond the horizon (地平线). Also business travel has been going on for centuries. Traders could not only make money but also learn to speak several languages and be introduced to different cultures.So, travelling does enrich our mind and draw new ideas to us. There is no doubt that we can get much from it.4. People enjoys travelling because .A. Enlarge their knowledageB. Have more chances to eat different foodC. Experience new thingsD. Above all5. How many reasons for travelling are mentioned in Paragraph 3?____________A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six.6. What’s the main idea of this passage?____________A. Different kinds of travelling. C.Ways to enjoy yourself while travelling.B. Travelling enriches our mind. D.The advantages and disadvantages of travelling.C ★★An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.Fragile items, like those made of glass should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.There is a strong chance of short circuits（短路）and fire breakouts during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.7. The purpose of the passage is to tell readers _____.A. the damage caused by earthquakesB. the rescue work after earthquakesC. what to do about earthquakesD. how to prevent earthquakes8. The underlin ed word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means _____.A. easily brokenB. easily foundC. expensiveD. heavy9. During the earthquake, people are advised to _____.A. go out the building at onceB. turn off power and gas immediatelyC. take shelter under a treeD. drive to a safe place10. What should people NOT do when they are trapped in debris?A. Cover their mouth with a handkerchief.B. Tap on a pipe or wall for help.C. Use a whistle for help.D. Light a fire for help.第二节: 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

What gifts to bring to the host when invited.C. How to express your gratitude to your friends.D. How to behave when you are invited to a dinner partyCAn idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond.The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.In Chicago, the mayor (市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged that parents and children read to each other at night and strangers chatted away on the bus about plot and character.The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.Ultimately, as Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.8．What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers.B. To encourage people to read and share.C. To involve people in community service.D. To promote the friendship between cities.9．Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?A. They had little interest in reading.B. They were too busy to read a book.C.

Animals and insects can also enter this contest. Butthey might just leave humans in the dust!The first event is the long jump. The human athlete is Mike Powell. In 1991, he jumped nearly 30 feet, which is the world record for the long jump. That is about five times his own height. His competitor in the long-jump contest is a frog named “Rosie the Ribbiter.” Rosie set the world record for frogs in 1986 by jumping more than 21 feet. Her record has never been broken by any other frog. Compared to Mike Powell, Rosie's jump is not that amazing. But wait! Rosie is only about 10 inches long when her legs are stretched to their full length. She can jump more than 25 times her size. Rosie, the frog, wins the long-jump event.The next event is the high jump. Javier Sotomayor, the world record holder, can jump a bar (横杆) 8 feet high. That is about as high as the ceiling in most homes.Looking around for someone to challenge his record, Javier might need a magnifying glass (放大镜). The next contestant is a tiny insect called the spittlebug (吹沫虫).The spittlebug can jump 28 inches into the air. It is only a quarter-inch long, less than the width of a pencil. If the spittlebug were the same size as Javier, it would be able to jump 600 feet into the air. That is like a human jumping over a building 55 stories high!Though the humans lose the “jumping contest,” their competitors would probably agree that Mike and Javier are still pretty excellent athletes. If only Rosie and the spittlebug could speak!12.The underlined word “contestant” in Paragraph 5 means “_____”.A、challengerB、record holderC、teammateD、coach13.What can we learn about the spittlebug?A、It likes living on the ceiling.B、It is good at flying in the air.C、It is the same length as a pencil.D、It has a wonderful jumping talent.14.In the author's opinion, Rosie and the spittlebug's jumping abilities are ________.A、fearfulB、doubtfulC、surprisingD、promising15.How does the author develop the text?A、By giving instructions.B、By making comparisons.C、By following the order of time.D、By following the order of importance.第二节篇章填空（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列四篇短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的A、B、C、D、E、F、G七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使补足后的短文意思通顺、前后连贯。
