2024-2025学年度第一学期高一英语期中考试卷试卷满分:100分第一部分阅读理解(共20 小题;每小题2.5 分,满分50 分)第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C 和D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AHere are some pet-friendly universities in the UK and US.University of IllinoisStudents are allowed up to two pets in each apartment, as well as a fish tank of no more than 50 gallons.To keep a pet, you will need to get approval from the Family & Graduate housing department at the University of Illinois. You will have to provide proof that your pet is up to date with its vaccinations(疫苗), and pay a monthly US$30 pet fee, which is non-refundable(不可退款的).Your pet can’t be left for extended periods of time, and if there’s evidence that you’ve left it alone due to vacation or illness, the university may remove it.Harvard UniversityWith as many as 12 pet-friendly apartments, Harvard is a very pet-friendly university. It allows students to have fish in a tank of no more than 50 gallons, except for Harvard’s Cronkhite Graduate Center.In Harvard’s pet-friendly apartments, you’re allowed: one cat or one dog, which can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown. At most, two pet birds.University of British Columbia Students can take advantage of the university’s B.A.R. K program, which uses the calming power of therapy dogs to help them.B.A.R. K started at the University of British Columbia, after an assistant professor called Dr. John-Tyler Binfet noticed that he couldn’t walk across campus without students running over to play with his dog, Frances. The students told him they were homesick and missed their pets, which encouraged Binfet to establish B.A.R. K as a way of fighting their loneliness.University of OxfordThe University of Oxford is famous for its resident pets, who happily wander around college grounds. Many Oxford colleges have their own tortoise and take part in the annual Corpus Christi tortoise race.Although you are not allowed to keep your own pet as a student, several Oxford colleges hold dog petting and walking therapy sessions.1.What is one of the rules for keeping pets at the University of Illinois?A.Pet keepers should pay a monthly US$ 30 pet fee which will be returned.B.Pets can’t be left alone in the apartments due to vacation or illness.C.Students have to keep fish in a fish tank of no more than 20 gallons.D.The cat or dog can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown.2.Why did Dr. John-Tyler Binfet start B.A.R. K?A.To help students to fight against homesickness.B.To do research on dogs and train them to be pets.C.To help more professors to do exercise on campus.D.To give assistance to the pet dogs by offering them foods.3.Which university doesn’t allow students to keep pets?A.Harvard University. B.University of Oxford.C.University of Illinois. D.University of British Columbia.BA survey by the American Psychological Association shows that one in ten adults reads online news at least once an hour. A lot has been written about the mental health influence from news addiction, and in particular from reading negative reports. Just like junk food, “junk” news can be bad for our health.In recent years, things have been getting increasingly more negative. A study of the content of New Zealand’s largest newspaper showed that while in 1973 the average number of stories about death on the front page was 0.75, by 2013 it was 4.1(and no, there weren’t five times more people dying).What’s more, online news, and the stories we read on mobile phones in particular, tend to be even more negative than print. A 2019 study of 50 U.S. newspapers showed that mobile versions of newspapers report three times more stories about disasters and accidents than paper ones.Such negative reports lead people to believe that things are worse than they really are. They can lead to stress, worry and lower spirits.Experiments also suggest that loneliness and poor relationships have been connected with reading negative reports. After reading negative reports, people are less likely to help others. Even worse, when we check news on smart phones, we may “phub” our loved ones, which leads to lower relationship satisfaction.Negative reports attract our attention far more than positive ones. That’s a global happening. I hope, however, that if we realize that negative news is spoiling our moods, we might all be more willing to change. 4.Why is “junk food” mentioned in the first paragraph?A.To entertain readers.B.To introduce the topic.C.To make an advertisement.D.To keep readers away from it.5.What can we learn about the study in Paragraph 2?A.The death rate in New Zealand is very high.B.Print newspapers have become less popular.C.Stories about death have become less popular.D.Negative reporting has been increasing over years. 6.What may negative reports lead people to do?A.Live a hopeful life.B.Become more careful.C.Become less likely to help others.D.Pay more attention to their physical health.7.What does the underlined word “phub” in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Ignore B.Hate C.Laugh at D.Care about8.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.A Survey on News Reading Habits B.Negative Effects of Mobile PhonesC.Is Online News Better Than Print?D.Is Junk News a Danger to Health?CThere was once a boy called Mario who loved to have lots of friends at school. However, he wasn’t sure whether or not his classmates were his true friends, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need; it’s in the attic (阁楼). Wait here for a minute.”Grandpa left, soon returning as though carrying something in his hand, but Mario could see nothing there. “Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible (无形的) it’s rather difficult to sit on, but if you take it to school and you manage to sit on it, you’ll be able to tell who your true friends are.”Mario took the strange invisible chair and went to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. “Nobody move. You’re about to see something amazing,” Mario said.Then Mario tried sitting on the chair. He missed and fell straight onto his backside. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. Mario wouldn’t be beaten. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair, and kept falling to theground... until, suddenly, he tried again and didn’t fall. This time he sat, hovering (悬停) in mid-air.Looking around, Mario saw George, Lucas, and Diana — three of his best friends — holding him up, so he wouldn’t fall. At the same time, many others he had thought of as friends were doing nothing but make fun of him, enjoying each and every fall.Leaving with his three friends, Mario explained to them how his grandpa had so cleverly thought of such a good idea. Now he knows that those who take joy in our misfortunes (不幸) when we are in difficulty are not our true friends.9.What did Mario’s grandpa take from the attic?A.An invisible chair.B.An old chair.C.A real chair.D.Nothing.10.Why did Mario’s grandpa give him the invisible chair?A.To see whether Mario could sit on it. B.To test who were Mario’s true friends.C.To let Mario have fun with his classmates.D.To test whether Mario was popular at school. 11.How was Mario able to hover in mid-air?A.He saw the invisible chair suddenly. B.He managed to sit on the chair finally.C.His friends held him up with their hands. D.His classmates gave him a chair to sit on.12.What does the story tell us?A.Never laugh at our friends. B.True friends can help us do magic.C.True friends are those who care for us. D.Having too many good friends isn’t a good thing.DSure, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to get along well with the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.In fact, kids who get along well with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable with asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier for them to understand new materials and makes them do their best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues (问题).Here is a question:What if you don’t get along with your teachers? In fact, teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn. But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes (个性冲突), which can happen between any two people. If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation better, he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen. By dealing with a problem like this, you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you.However if a certain teacher isn’t your favorite, you can still have a successful relationship with him or her especially if you fulfill (履行) your basic responsibilities as a student.Here are some of those responsibilities (责任):Attend class ready to learn.Be prepared for class with the right stationery, books, and completed assignments (作业).Listen when your teacher is talking.Do your best, whether it’s a classroom assignment, homework, or a test.13.According to the passage, what will happen to you when getting along well with your teachers ?A.We will have no problems with studyB.We will get a better seat in the classroomC.We will get the best scores in the examsD.We will have more pleasant time in the classroom14.What does the underlined word “that” refers to in the fourth paragraph?A.The happy time you have in the classroomB.Getting along very well with classmatesC.A better relationship between you and your teacherD.The disappearance of personality differences15.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.The importance of friendship in schools.B.The importance of a good relationship with your teachers.C.Studying skills for students.D.Useful skills to get along well with your teachers.16.As a student, what will you do if you don’t like a certain teacher ?A.You fulfill (履行) your basic responsibilities as a studentB.You are thought of as a good studentC.You know some basic social skillsD.You are easygoing and helpful第二节七选五(每小题1分,共5分,根据短文内容,选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

An announcement.BI’ve been in an 18-year love-hate relationship with a black walnut tree.It’s a unique tree. In late September or early October, falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August, and as for me, I wear my bike helmet while working in the garden.The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. There have been many new plant varieties tha t I brought home with hopes that maybe the black walnut would accept them, but they failed toflourish.What does work are native plants that naturally grow in the area. Native plants are important to have around since they provide beneficial pollinators (传粉者) like birds, bees and butterflies with seeds and contribute to a healthy and biodiverse environment. Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress.Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. It’s also protected under the law. Rightfully so. Trees are important to the urban forest and for all of those that inhabit it.Sometimes I think about my life without the black walnut. I can’t imagine a spring without the birds who arrive every year and loudly sing their songs before dawn. I’d miss falling asleep on lazy weekend afternoons as I look up into its leaves.Every spring, I wonder what the season holds: What are the chances of being knocked unconscious while barbecuing? Like any good relationship, I’ll never be pleased. I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. In return, my walnut offers a habitat for wildlife and a reminder.19.Why does the author wear a bike helmet while working in the garden?A. To protect the injured skull.B. To prevent herself from sunburn.C. To avoid being hit by the nuts.D. To reduce the chance of getting bitten by bees.20.What is the tree’s survival strategy?A. It attracts beneficial pollinators.B. It lets out poison to drive away pests.C. It produces a chemical fatal to some plants.D. It competes for nutrition with similar species.21.Which of the following DOESN’T account for the author’s love-hate relationship with the tree?A. The volume of its fruits may bring inconvenience.B. The tree outcompetes the native plants in the garden.C. The tree is home to numerous birds and other creatures.D. The presence of the tree takes up much space of the garden.22.The author most probably got a reminder from the tree that ________.A. it’s better to give than to takeB. trees and plants have their own ways to flourishC. even a good relationship is not always trouble-freeD. acceptance, instead of resistance, is the better way to beCIt was raining like nothing before when Ehdaa Bujeldain, an English teacher living with her family in the mountains of Derna in eastern Libya , heard a loud noise that sounded like an explosion (爆炸). Later they learned that a dam (大坝) in Derna had broken down under the pressure of running water. For the next four days, they had no power or internet, and it was only recently that they started to fully understand of the damage caused by the floods.“Half of the city has been destroyed. My mom’s relatives, my friends, my coworkers ——they are all gone. Now we, the survivors, are just ghost s in shells,” says Bujeldain, whose sadness can be easily told from her blank expression.Five days have passed since the terrible flooding in Derna, Libya’s Red Crescent organization estimated that 11,300 people have died, while the city’s mayor believes the number of deaths could be as high as 20,000.Derna is a coastal city with a seasonal river called the Wadi Derna. Despite the abnormally heavy rain, people living near the river had little warning before the floodwaters came rushing in on that terrible morning. United Nations aid chief Martin Griffiths described the scale of the flood as “appalling” (令人惊骇的) and blamed the flood partly on sudden climate change.Now international aid teams are arriving in Derna, but they face challenges due to damaged roads, lack of access to power, water, and fuel. Tarhoni, doctor of the rescue team, warns that the most difficult weeks lie ahead. “One disaster is done and there is another to come,” he says. “The thousands and thousands of people who lost everything these people now need comfort, they need company, t hey need psychological support.”23.What do we know about Bujeldain’s family from paragraph 1?A. The explosion they heard led to the destruction of the dam.B. Bujeldain saved her family from the floods with her bravery.C. Bujeldain immediately recognized the outbreak of the floods.D. For several days, they didn’t fully realize the seriousness of the floods.24.What does Bujeldain mean by saying they are “just ghosts in shells” in paragraph 2?A. They run out of energy and are very tired.B. They feel lucky as they are safe and sound.C. They are completely saddened and shocked.D. They are sorry for the loss of their homeland.25.According to the passage, which of the following does NOT contribute to the loss of lives?A. The absence of warning.B. The extraordinary rainfall.C. Unexpected climate change.D. The damage to environment.26.What might be the main focus of international aid efforts in Derna?A. Addressing mental problems.B. Providing immediate medical care.C. Conducting climate change research.D. Rebuilding roads and access to resources.DBy the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’s oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny microorganisms (微生物) in the ocean called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colorful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean color varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate (调控) the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3C, it found that multiple changes to the color of the oceans would occur. The model projectsthat currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions more suitable for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing.” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to live on.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever color changes the ocean experiences in the coming future will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happe ning because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the color of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet.”27.What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A. The cause of the changes in ocean color.B. The various patterns at the ocean surface.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.28.What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. beneficialB. sensitiveC. significantD. unnoticeable 29.What can we learn from the passage?A. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.B. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.C. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the ecosystem.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.30.What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.B. To assess the consequences of ocean color changes.C. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.D. To analyze the organization of the ocean food chain.The Chubby Diaries creator is part of a community of larger-bodied travelers who are showing the world that they can do anything. Following them helps because you can be like, “Oh, this place works with larger bodies.” 31 .Second plane seats and belt extendersSouthwest is one of the few airlines to offer plus-size passengers a free second seat. To ensure the extra space, Southwest recommends booking both seats beforehand, then making a request to get your money back. 32 Southwest states: “The armrest is t he definitive gauge (测量仪) for a customer of size. If you’re unable to lower both armrests, you need a second seat.” Even if your frame fits between the lowered arms, you may still need a seat-belt extender.33 .Finding size nclusive tripsFor Natalie Robinson, ziplining (压缩) in Costa Rica determined her bucket list. “Literally for the last 10 years, that’s all I talked about,” said the co-owner of Fat Girls Travel. 34 . Her fortunes changed completely on an August trip to Costa Rica, when a friend found an outfitter without weight restrictions. The guide said Robinson could dash through the rainforest as long as she could reach the starting point high in the tree tops.35When researching a trip, ask about weight restrictions as well as the availability of equipment that can accommodate your size. If you have concerns, bring your own equipment. Plus-size travelers emphasize the importance of being self-sufficient. Finding special clothes and equipment can be challenging in unfamiliar destinations.A. Pack your own equipmentB. Find supportive travel groups and tripsC. Their extra efforts are paying off as they discover how to travel comfortably andconfidentlyD. Ziplining provides much convenience for those fat girlsE. Many airlines use the armrests to determine whether a passenger requires more spaceF. Air-lines provide this extra piece of equipment free, and you can request it at the time ofboardingG. But ziplining generally has a weight limit, so she hadn’t been able to do itYou might say I found marathoning, step by step. Or perhaps it found me. I was 36 an athlete growing up. In fact, I have a hard time 37 that term to myself even today.It started when I joined a group of women in my neighborhood for a daily three-mile walk. At first it was 38 . But soon, my body adjusted and I wanted 39 . Before long, I was running 5 miles. Then I set a goal to run a half marathon. And I did complete the Covered Bridges Half Marathon. I thought, “Now what?” I started to 40 a marathon.It so happened that I 41 a meeting one night and listened to the speaker and coach, Rick Muhr, and was so 42 by his words. I told him that I had signed up for the Ocean State Marathon, just a week away, and that I really didn’t believe I could 43 . Rick locked eyes with me and said, “Trish, you’ve done enough training. You’ll finish!”I never had someone 44 me like that, let alone a real, live coach. He gave me the45 I needed. I set out to run my 46 marathon and completed it in 4:25:00. Little did I know that this would be the beginning of nearly a decade of marathon and distance running. Running a marathon isn’t for everybody. But it is for anybody, anybody who wants to47 the unreachable and to take that 48 into the rest of their life.

I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but fora phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing (抽泣).Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up.She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief (不相信). Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. “Thanks.”Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.4. What made Kate angry one evening?A. She couldn’t find her books.B. She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She heard the author shouting loud.5. Why did the author tidy up the room?A. Because she wanted to show her care.B. Because she hated herself for being so messy.C. Because she was scared by Kate’s anger.D. Because she was asked by Kate to do so.6. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By following time order.C. By describing a process (过程).D. By showing differences.7. What might be the best title for the story?A. My Friend KateB. Learning to Be RoommatesC. How to Be OrganizedD. Hard Work Pays OffCIn today’s fast-paced world, people are constantly seeking ways to improve their well-being (幸福感). Two prominent aspects that have gained significant attention are sports and travelling, both of which are deeply related to fitness and personal growth.Sports play a crucial role in our lives. They are not just about winning or losing; they are about building strength. Whether it’s the powerlifting that requires immense physical might or the endurance (耐力) needed in long-distance running, sports determine our physical capabilities (体能). Different sports demand various skills and levels of fitness. For example, in team sports like soccer, players need to have both individual strength and the ability to work with teammates. This combination helps in developing a holistic sense of fitness.Travelling, too, has a unique connection with fitness. When we travel, especially when we venture (冒险) into the great outdoors during hikes or explore new cities on foot, we are engaging in physical activities that contribute to our well-being. It’s not just about seeing new places; it’s about the journey itself. The physical exertion (体力) during travel can enhance our strength and endurance. For instance, climbing a mountain during a trek (长途艰苦旅行) can be a challenging yet rewarding (有益的) fitness experience.Moreover, we can apply the lessons learned from sports and travel to our daily lives. The discipline (纪律) weacquire from regular sports training and the adaptability we gain from dealing with different travel situations can help us face other challenges with more confidence.8. What are the two main elements discussed in relation to fitness in the text?A. Sports and diet.B. Sports and travelling.C. Travelling and reading.D. Diet and reading.9. According to the passage, what does sports help to build?A. Only teamwork skills.B. Just winning spirit.C. Interest in art.D. Strength and determine physical capabilities.10. How is travelling related to fitness according to the article?A. By just relaxing.B. By eating local food.C. Through physical activities during the journey.D. By sleeping in different places.11. What can we apply from sports and travel to our daily lives?A. Laziness and carelessness.B. Discipline and adaptability.C. Fear and anxiety.D. Greed and envy.DTeenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight. Sports scientist Dr. Helen Lopez offers the following advice to teenagers: “First, you need to find out your present level of fitness. Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier.”Dr. Lopez points out that there are three levels of fitness that need a change of lifestyle. “Overweight” means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weight problem. “Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight. “Active” refers to people who take part in sports and other physical activities, but do not have a high fitness level.According to Dr. Lopez, overweight teenagers should keep active to keep healthy. “Ride a bike, play volleyball or basketball for a while, and go for a twenty-minute walk each day. All these will help to burn calories.” Inactive teenagers should do similar activities, but add some bending and stretching exercises, such as push-ups and sit-ups, starting with twenty of each a day. “Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger,” said Dr. Lopez. The same principle (规则) applies to active teenagers.Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive (高强度) exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said. Some weight-training and other body-strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase the person’s strength.12. Which of the following statements is NOT the reason why physical exercise is important?A. It can increase teenagers’ strength.B. It can help teenagers become healthier.C. It can help to burn up calories.D. It can make the teenagers grow taller.13. What can we learn from the passage?A. Active people always have a high fitness level.B. Overweight people always take more exercise.C. Inactive teenagers are not seriously overweight.D. Keeping fit means changing teenagers’ lifestyle.14. In order to prevent injuries, you should do some ________ exercises.A. stretching and bendingB. walkingC. RidingD. weight-training15. What is the best title for the passage?A. Doing exercisesB. Teenagers’ FitnessC. Different LifestylesD. Overweight Teenagers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。

(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读理解A British sleep expert,professor Chris Idzikowski,did a research showing that there was some connection between the way people sleep and their personality.The fetal positionThe fetal position gets its name from the shape of a baby in the mother's stomach.It is the most common position in the world.People who sleep in the fetal position tend towards worry and anxiety.They are often shy and sensitive.In the fetal position,a sleeper's body is like a ball as he lies on one side with legs and arms bent.Adults usually sleep in this position.The starfish positionWhen sleeping like a starfish,you lie on your back with arms up near the pillow.Sleep scientist Idzikowski says starfish sleepers value friendship.People who sleep in this position are good listeners and quick to help others.If you have a starfish sleeper as a best friend,you're in luck.Starfish sleepers are great listeners and a source of comfort to others.The freefall positionIn the freefall position,sleepers have their hands on or around their pillows,with their heads turned to one side. Freefall sleepers are social but sensitive and can become upset by extreme situations.They like to be in control of everything around their life.It's all part of their long periods of indecision,but once they make a choice,they stick to it. This position can aid in digestion(消化).The log positionFor those who suffer from back pain,the log position could be helpful for you.Log sleepers have both their arms and legs extended,so their bodies are straight like a log.Log sleepers are very trusting,but are usually social and easy-going individuals.Idzikowski claims that preferring a log position suggests that a person is sociable and can communicate with others easily.1.What's the personality of people sleeping in fetal position?A.Social and easy-going.B.Sensitive and social.C.Friendly and positive.D.Shy and sensitive.2.Which of the following is most suitable to be a friend?A.A fetal sleeper.B.A starfish sleeper.C.A freefall sleeper.D.A log sleeper.3.What can we know about log sleepers?A.They do well in sports.B.They are good listeners.C.They are easy to get along with.D.They have difficulty making decisions.阅读理解The world will become a better place when we realize that everyone can have bad days and that we care enough and take actions.A Kansas fourth-grade teacher Rachel Harder recognized this,and she found an amazing way to help out both her students and their families.A few years ago,Rachel attended a trauma(精神创伤)conference.She learned that some police stations partnered with schools.They could let teachers know when their students need help,patience or extra care.A year after the conference,Rachel had a student with autism who frequently had difficult days.To support the student,Rachel told the student's mom to simply text her"Handle with Care"to let her know when the student was experiencing difficult time."When she would text me,I knew that her daughter needed some extra time and a quiet place to get help,not going to the playground for morning announcements(通告),so that the rest of her daughter's day went well,"Rachel said.The simple method was such a success that Rachel decided to send all of her students home with a note for their parents.It explained what the"Handle with Care"system was and how they could make use of it.In no time,the parents began to show their appreciation for Rachel's unbelievable act of kindness.But Rachel's kindness didn't end with her class.News spread of the amazing system,and teachers across the country began giving it a shot in their own class.Printed materials could be found on the school website,and the feedback(反馈)has been extremely positive!4.What happened to Rachel a few years ago?A.She met with a policeman.B.She noticed some students in need.C.She acted as a host at a contest.D.She raised a girl with autism.5.What can we imagine Rachel probably did to the girl student?A.She asked to stop the morning announcements.B.She talked with her in the playground.C.She took her home ahead of time.D.She comforted her at a quiet place.6.How did the parents treat Rachel's system?A.They paid no attention to it.B.They changed it in daily use.C.They accepted it thankfully.D.They introduced it to others personally.7.What is the text mainly about?A.A proper system.B.A considerate teacher.C.A story going online.D.A class influencing the nation.阅读理解The characteristic(特征)of shyness is to feel frightened and nervous in new social situations or when being the center of attention.Whether shyness is part of your children's personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers,it is a common experience,according to a study.To look at shyness,researchers brought152children aged7-8into a lab and told them they would give a speech, which would be filmed and shown to other children.The study showed that about10%of the children showed a level of stress over time when giving the speech.About25%of the children were not reported to be shy in the eyes of their parents,but in fact showed a level of social stress from giving the speech.This finding provides the fact that shyness may be a part of these children's temperament(性情).For children at this age,shyness may be a quite common and normal experience when they face a speech task.For a smaller group of shy children,however,being the center of attention may be stressful at different times and environments.A shy temperament isn't always valued by society like an outgoing personality,but that doesn't mean there is something wrong.Everyone can feel shy at times depending on the environment.And those who are particularly shy often have happy social lives—they just aren't likely to be the liveliest people in a crowded room.Although shyness itself may not necessarily be a problem,parents should pay attention to signs of worry, particularly in their shy children.Importantly,however,we know that not all shy children are the same,and that many shy children grow up to be well-balanced adults.8.What can we learn from paragraph1?A.Shyness is not an unusual characteristic.B.Shyness is born with personality.C.Shyness will appear when one is in public.D.Shyness means not communicating with others.9.What is the finding of the study?A.Few kids like to give a speech to others.B.Some kids can get shy while giving speeches.C.Some kids appear less shy with their parents.D Some kids are stressed when being separated.10.What does the author advise parents to do when facing shy children?A.Bring them to crowded space.B.Care for them and give them confidence.C.Keep them away from shyness.D.Let them be alone.11.What can be the best title for the text?A.When are people shy?B.Ways of beating shynessC.Why is shyness a bad thing?D.The discoveries about shyness阅读理解Humans are not the animal world's only fashion followers.Tits(山雀)can be one of them,too.A study by Sonja Wild and Lucy Aplin shows that,given the chance,they make their nests(巢穴)with this season's must-have color.Dr.Wild and Dr.Aplin followed up on a study which noted that the blue tits preferred to put the same plants into their nests.This also suggested fashion-following—and it led Dr.Wild and Dr.Aplin to imagine that birds were studying the nests of others and copying them.The birds they followed carried instruments on them.That allowed researchers to follow a large number of tits by their arrival at food dispensers(自动取物装置)throughout the woods.One day in March2021,Dr.Wild and Dr.Aplin used five dispensers with wool rather than food.Each contained two colors—either orange and pink or blue and purple—but all were rigged to give only one of these.This remained so until at least one local nest was seen to include wool from a dispenser.At that moment,the other color was discovered, too.As a comparison,Dr.Wild and Dr.Aplin set up four wool dispensers in a separate area,each providing two colors from the beginning.Of68tits'nests,26included wool from a dispenser.Of these,18were built after both colors had been gotten from all dispensers.Even so,10of that18included only the color of wool first chosen by a nest makers.By contrast(相比之下),all8nests with wool have mixed colors,which showed a clear difference in the record.Tits,then,do seem to be"in fashion"when it comes to nest-building materials.Tits like those of the leaders of human fashions and it is worth more deep research.12.Why are the same plants put into nests by the tits?A.They want to beautify their nests.B.They find no other plants.C.They are used to doing this.D.They want to keep warm.13.What does the underlined word"rigged"in paragraph4mean?A.Refused.B.Warned.C.Forced.D.Arranged.14.What method is mainly used in the experiment?A.Testing colors.B.Observing activities.C.Comparing results.D.Checking numbers.15.What is the author's attitude to the research?A.Disappointed.B.Supportive C.Doubtful.D.Unclear.二、第一部分阅读,第二节任务型阅读(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。

ARecently a growing number of foreign universities, such as the University of Cambridge, are accepting China's gaokao results as one of their admission standards(录取标准).Is the Chinese college entrance exam being recognized globally? Four readers share their opinions:Cecilia Zhang(China)The gaokao is a really difficult exam. If possible, it can be used as one of the indicators( 指标) for foreign universities, in addition to other indicators, such as how well they speak the target language. The students, who perform well in the gaokao,also have the ability to successfully adapt to( 适应) Western styles of education. I believe accepting the gaokao as an indicator is a win-win for Chinese students and overseas universities.Wchao37(US)In fact,gaokao is perhaps much more difficult than the SAT or ACT exams. You can get a perfect score of 1600 on the SAT but not in the gaokao, partly because the SAT is a machine-scored multiple-choice exam. Do you know anyone that has ever achieved a perfect score in the gaokao?Harry01 (UK)Hundreds of students from China have entered universities in the UK I using their gaokao scores which requires that their knowledge of English be above a certain level. This measure has benefited specific groups of students from various background s in China.Mbursian(Canada)In order to attend a university in an English-speaking country,a student needs to have an acceptable band score on the IELTS.Most importantly, students need an acceptable knowledge of the language spoken in any country they plan to study in. Now the Chinese gaokao is closer to meeting the requirements of different countries.21. Who believes accepting the Chinese gaokao is a win-win?A. Cecilia ZhangB. Wchao37.C. Harry01.D. Mbursian.22. What is most important for Chinese students planning to study abroad?A. The IELTS score.B. Enough test preparation.C. The Chinese gaokao score.D. Knowledge of the native language.23. What does the text intend to tell the readers?A. The gaokao will replace other tests.B. The gaokao is becoming globally accepted.C. The gaokao is the most difficult of all tests.D. The University of Cambridge made a good decision.BThis was the first real task I received in my new school.It seemed simple:go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different!One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts(花生), while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice;let the coin decide.I flipped( 掷)a coin and Ah! Tails(背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later,I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange.I looked around the room,only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost.“What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Oh well,I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report,it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of independence.”The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?Of course,my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless,I decided to turn this around.I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair,and I believed I should get a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster's office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.24. The task I received was to find information about .A. uses for peanutsB. American War of IndependenceC. George WashingtonD. my headmaster Miss Lancelot25. People in the class acted strangely because .A. I was too proud of my homeworkB. I mistook what the homework was aboutC. the whole world suddenly became quietD. the teacher's face turned to a stone26. We can infer(推断) from the passage that .A. the headmaster didn't like the writer at allB. the writer's classmates felt sad at his mistakeC. the writer knew little about American historyD. the writer's grandpa was a very wise man27. Which of the following proverbs can best describe the main idea of this story?A. Seeing is believing.B. Where there is a will, there is a way.C. One is never too old to learn.D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.CA recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content.Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don't read.But how to build a habit of reading?Like any habit,the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading.“I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,”My friend Jimmy once told me.“So if I want to check my phone,I physically can see the book there. Nine times out often, I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”Another challenge is time,and in that case, audiobooks(有声书)can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you're on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.If you're still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There's no-shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.28. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit?A. Getting reading skills.B. Finding a great book.C. Having limited time.D. Getting reading started.29. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text?A. They are time saving.B. They provide more pleasure.C. They help brain development.D. They offer more book choices.30. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea?A. It helps re start reading.B. It is of great convenienceC. It improves the taste for art.D. It can increase your patience.31. What can be the best title for the text?A. Method of killing free timeB. Advantages of using audiobooksC. Way to choose educational booksD. Tips on developing a reading habitDLast Friday,a special thing took place at the National Theater of Korea.A robot called EveR 6led an orchestra(管弦乐队)in a performance of Korean music. Robots have led orchestras in other countries, but this was the first time ever in Korea.EveR 6 is a robot built by the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology (KITECH).It's about as tall as a person,and has a human-like face that can show feelings. EveR 6 has joints(关节) in its neck, shoulders, etc. As a result, it can move its arms quickly in many different directions.But EveR 6 doesn't think on its own like some Artificial Intelligence programs. Instead, it has a limited groupof movements that it has been trained to perform.To make these movements as natural as possible, EveR6’s movements are learned from real human conductors.When EveR 6 moved its baton(指挥棒)for the first time,a piece of music rang out. Every movement of the robot's arms brought more instruments into the mix,and the orchestra's music grew louder and more exciting. Mr White, a human conductor,was impressed with the way EveR6moved.“The robot was able to present such difficult moves much better than I had imagined,”he said.But the robot still is not nearly ready to supersede human conductor.Mr White says the robot's greatest weakness is that it can't hear.“Some people think that conducting is just about hand waving and keeping the beat,” says Mr White. But a good conductor needs to listen to the orchestra, so that he or she can correct and encourage the orchestra as it plays.Mr White doesn't think robots are likely to replace human conductors. But he believes robots could be helpfulin situations like practice parts where the same thing needs to be done many times.32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The effect of EveR 6.B. The advantage of EveR 6.C. The importance of EveR 6.D. The basic information of EveR 6.33. What does the underlined word“supersede”in paragraph 5 mean?A. Look forward to.B. Show interest in.C. Take the place of.D. Make an impression on.34. Which of the following may Mr White agree with?A. Robots' role as a conductor will be overlooked.B. Robots could work in some fields of conductors' work.C. Robots are useless in practice parts of a conductor.D. Robots will replace human conductors.35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A.Science.B. Sports.C. Health.D. Education.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。

"Hey!" she shouted. "I'm driving around giving free haircuts. If I go grab my chair, do you want one right now?" "No problem." he said. "I'll be right back," Steller said. She drove off, went to the salon she owns, and loaded a red chair into her car. Then she drove back. The man, named Edward, took a seat, and she cut his curly graying hair. After Steller was done, Edward looked in a mirror. "I look good!" he said.To date, Steller has given 30 or so such haircuts to people around the city. These clients are all living on the margins, and she is fully aware of the power of her cleanup job. "It's more than a haircut," she says. "I want it to be a gateway, to show value and respect, but also to get to know people. I want to build relationships."Steller knows that a haircut can change a life. One changed hers: as a teen, she suffered from a disease called ulcerative colitis(溃疡性结肠炎)that was so severe and her hair thinned suddenly. Seeing this, her mother arranged for Steller's first professional haircut. "To sit down and have somebody talk to me like a person, it helped me feel cared about." she says. After that, Steller knew she wanted to have her own salon so she could help people feel the way she'd felt that day. Not long after finishing cosmetology school in 2009, she began what she now calls her Red Chair Project.Steller listens to people's stories of loss, addiction, and struggle to get back on their feet. The attention apparently works. When she was cutting a woman's hair one day, someone drove by and yelled, "You look amazing!" The woman in the chair smiled very happily. "I'm not unnoticed," she exclaimed. "Look, people see me!" "The way you show up in the world matters," says Steller. "You have no idea what people are going to do with the kindness that you give them."(1)Steller gives haircuts to those who ________.A.live with low social statusB.live in the countrysideC.live on the edge of the citiesD.live in small communities(2)What inspired Steller to start her Red Chair Project?A.Her generosity to the poor.B.Her experience in illness.C.Her fear of being alone.D.Her skill of doing hair.(3)How did the woman in the chair feel?A.Confident.B.Shy.C.Shocked.D.Cheerful.(4)Which is the best title for the text?A.Simple Action of KindnessB.A Successful Salon OwnerC.The Power of Free CutsD.The Change of LifeD.One's success is based on how hard he has tried.(4)Which point of view may the author agree to?A.Every effort should be paid back.petition should be encouraged.C.Winning should be a life-and-death matter.D.Fear of failure should be removed in competition.6.I travel a lot, and I find out different "styles"(风格)of directions every time I ask "How can I get to the post office?"Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑)in Japan because most streets there don't have names; in Japan, people use landmarks(地标)in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop."In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, "Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile."People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it's about five minutes from here." You say, "Yes, but how many miles away is it?" They don't know.It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don't know." People in Yucatan believe that "I don't know" is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!(1)When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usually ________.A.describe the place carefullyB.show him a map of the placeC.refer to recognizable buildings and placesD.tell him the names of the streets(2)What is the place where people measure distance in time?A.New York.B.Kansas.C.Los Angeles.D.Iowa.(3)People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ________.A.in order to save timeB.as a testC.for funD.so as to be polite(4)What can we infer from the text?A.It's important for travelers to understand cultural differences.B.It's useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.C.People have similar understandings of politeness.D.New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.(5)Which statement is NOT true according to the text?A.People in Los Angeles have not idea of distance on the map.B.In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks.C.A New Yorker may give a tourist a wrong answer to be polite.D.In Japan people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names.四、书面表达(本题共计 2 小题,每题 5 分,共计10分)7. 假定你是李华,你的英国朋友Mark希望向你了解国画的相关知识,因你临时有事,需要推迟见面时间。

内蒙古呼和浩特市回民中学2024_2025学年高一英语上学期期中试题A卷

2024-2025学年度第一学期高一年级英语学科期中考试试卷(A)卷面分:120分考试时长:120分其次部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30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 (令人恐惊的). 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.BI think a close friend is someone you get on really well with, who helps you when you have problems, who gives you advice, and who alwa ys has time for you. I didn’t use to have many close friends when I was at school or at university as I was very shy, but now I have several. They are all women —I think it’s difficult to have a close friend of the opposite sex (异性).— MarieI don’t reall y have any close friends. I know a lot of people but mainly through work, and the kind of social occasions (场合) when we meet are business dinners and evening parties. I think if you come from a really close family, then friends are a bit unnecessary. The little free time I have I prefer to spend with my family.— RichardI think a close friend is someone who you’ve known for a long time, and who you still get on with. They probably have similar hobbies to you so you can do things together. I’ve got three cl ose friends who I was at high school with and we oftengo away together (without our parents of course). We always go camping and somewhere we can go walking, play football and be outside in the open air.— David For me close friends are the people you spend your free time with. I go out at weekends with a group of people —there are about seven of us, and I’d say we are all close friends. We also live near each other. I don’t think you can have close friends at a distance (在远处); you need to be able to see each other often. But I don’t think you need to be doing the same things. I mean I’m at university but none of my friends are.— Ana24. What does Richard say about friends?A. It’s hard to make friends at work.B. They’re less important than family.C. Friends need to have a lot in common.D. Women and men can’t be close friends.25. What does David enjoy?A. Physical activity.B. Parent-child camp.C. Going to evening parties.D. Playing out in the open alone.26. What do we know about Ana’s frie nds?A. They are college students.B. They are doing the same things.C. They don’t live far away.D. They don’t see each other often.27. Who has more friends now than before?A. Ana.B. David.C. Richard.D. Marie.CWhat a day! I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before,but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I’d been at the school for a hundred years!The day started very early at 7:00 am. I had my breakfast downstairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was goin g to love me. If they didn’t love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn’t stop laughing.My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell.A little blonde (金发的) girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving (招手) at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.I cannot wait until tomorrow and feel as though I am really going to enjoy my time at my new school. I only hope that my new friends feel the same way too.28. How did the author feel the night before her new school?A. Tired.B. Excited.C. Worried.D. Relaxed.29. What did the author think of her mother’s advice?A. Clear.B. Funny.C. Reasonable.D. Excellent.30. What happened on the author’s first day of school?A. She met many nice people.B. She had a hurried breakfast.C. She learned some new skills.D. She arrived at school very early.31. What can we infer about Abigail?A. She disliked Stacey.B. She was shy and quiet.C. She got on well with the author.D. She was an old friend of the author.DTwo hundred years ago, American students went to American schools. Like you, they studied math, spelling and geography. Unlike you, they also studied Greek (希腊语) and Latin (拉丁语). In fact, students spent more than half their time studying Greek and Latin.The same was true for most students in Europe. Until the seventh century, all educated Europeans knew Latin. It did not matter if they lived in England, Italy, France or Spain. If they were educated, they knew Latin.During the seventh century, educated Europeans began to study Greek as well as Latin. Greek and Latin had been the leading languages of the ancient Greeks and Romans. All educated Europeans were expected to know these languages.To educated Europeans, the languages of the Greeks and the Romans were important. The ideas of the Greeks and Romans were also important. People knew that many of their own ideas had come from the Greeks and the Romans. To understand their own culture, they must understand its origin (起源). They knew that those beginnings lay in the classical (古典文学的) world.Today we have so many things to study that few people have time to learn Greek and Latin. Few of you will study either language in school. Yet the ideas of the Greeks and the Romans are still important to us. These ideas still help to shape Western culture today. To understand our own culture, we must understand the culture of the classical world.32. Two hundred years ago, in American schools _____.A. there were many educated GreeksB. Greek and Latin were very popularC. students paid little attention to mathD. students knew little about geography33. According to the text, Europeans thought _____.A. the origin of their culture was unknownB. the ideas of the Greeks were unacceptableC. Greek was much more important than LatinD. the Romans had a great influence on their culture34. Where does the author of the text probably come from?A. Japan.B. Greece.C. America.D. China.35. In the last paragraph, the author suggests that _____.A. it’s of great value to learn Greek and LatinB. it’s quite difficult to learn Greek and LatinC. the culture of the classical world is useless nowadaysD. Western culture is quite different from Greek and Roman cultures其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Breathtaking scenery.BWhen Belquer first joined a team to make a better live music experience for deaf and hard-of-hearing people, he was struck by how they had developed more solutions to enjoy concerts. "What they were doing at the time was holding balloons to feel the vibrations(震动)through theirfingers," Belquer said. He thought the team could make something to help hard-of-hearing people enjoy live music even more with the technology now available.Belquer, who is also a musician and theater artist, is now the "Chief Vibration Officer" of Music: Not Impossible, which uses new technology to address social issues like poverty and disability access. His team started by tying different vibrating cell phone motors to bodies, but that didn't quite work. The vibrations were all the same. Eventually, they worked with engineers to develop a light haptic (触觉的)suit with a total of 24 vibrating plates. There are 20 of them tied to a undershirt that fits tightly around the body like a hiking backpack, plus one that ties to each wrist and ankle, When you wear the suit, it's surprising how it feels.The vibrations are mixed by a haptic DJ who controls the location, frequency and intensity of feeling across the suits, just as a music DJ mixes sounds in an artful way. "What we're doing is selecting and mixing what we want and send it to different parts of the body," said the DJ. The haptic suits were just one component of the event. There were American Sign Language interpreters; the music was displayed on a screen on the stage.The suits are the star attraction. Lily Lipman, who has auditory processing disorder, lit up when asked about her experience. "It's cool, because I'm never quite sure if I'm hearing what other people are hearing, so it's amazingto get the music in my body."4. What surprised Belquer about people with hearing problems?A. The attitude they held to life.B. The way they enjoyed music.C. The love they had for balloons.D. The frequency they vibrated fingers.5. Why did the team's initial attempt fail?A. The vibrations lacked variety.B. The vibrations were irregular.C. The motors were the same.D. The motors hardly worked.6. What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about?A. Displaying music on the stage.B. Selecting proper suits for participants.C. Mixed methods helping people feel the music.D. Interpreters with excellent sign language skills.7. What does Lily Lipman think of the suit?A. It's comforting.B. It's challenging.C. It's satisfying.D. It's disturbing.CA team in Norway recently conducted in-depth research on writing by hand and typing on a keyboard.The team invited 36 university students who had to either write or type words displayed on a screen. The study participants used a digital pen to write in cursive (草书)on a touchscreen, and they used one finger on a keyboard to type. The researchers used a special cap with 256 sensors. This cap was worn by the students, and their brain activity was recorded for five seconds each time they were asked to write or type."We show that when writing by hand, brain connectivity patterns are far more complex than when typewriting on a keyboard," says Professor Audrey van der Meer, the team leader. "Such widespread brain connectivity is known to be important for memory formation and for encoding (编码)new information and, therefore, is beneficial for learning." The researchers also note that even though the participants used digital pens for writing in the study, they believe the findings would be similar if the participants used an ink pen and paper."We've shown that the differences in brain activity are related to the careful forming of the letters when writing by hand while making more use of the senses. Since it's the movement of the fingers carried out when forming letters that promotes brain connectivity, writing in print also has similar benefits for learning as cursive writing," Audrey adds. "This also explains why children who have learned to write and read on a tablet can have difficulty differentiating between letters that are mirror images of each other, such as 'b' and 'd'. They haven't felt with their bodies what it feels like to produce those letters."Considering handwritten note-taking is becoming less common in educational settings, the researchers advocate for more opportunities for students to write by hand. "There's some evidence that students learn more and remember better when taking handwritten lecture notes, while using a computer with a keyboard may be more pragmatic when writing a long text or essay," Audrey concludes.8. What was the special cap used to do?A. Measure the participants' brain activity.B. Evaluate the participants' writing styles.C. Tell the participants when to write or type.D. Record the time the participants used to write.9. What does paragraph 3 focus on about the study?A. Its backgrounds.B. Its equipment.C. Its outcomes.D. Its process.10. What plays the key role in strengthening brain connectivity?A. Writing letters carefully by hand.B. Forming the habit of taking notes.C. Recognizing letters' mirror images.D. Learning to practice cursive writing.11. What does the underlined word "pragmatic" in the last paragraph mean?A. Difficult.B. Traditional.C. Special.D. Practical.DWhen I stepped into the Samcheong Park Library in Seoul, I saw the future. The simple building had a nice selection of books and a cafe where readers could enjoy coffee while gazing at the leaves outside. It was specifically designed without any latest technology."What's so innovative about that?" a librarian in Toronto asked when I showed her pictures. Innovation to her meant digital technology, like 3D printers. "Why couldn't they both be innovative?" I asked.We are constantly told that innovation is the most important force in our economy, without which we would be left behind. But that fear of missing out has led us to fall into the false trappings of innovation over truly innovative ideas that may be simpler and more effective. This mindset implies that if you just buy the new thing, you have innovated! Each year, businesses and individuals run around like broken toy robots, trying to figure out their strategy for the latest buzzword equipment.At best, this is a waste of resources. Devices are bought, used and abandoned, as the technology's capabilities fall short of its promise. But at its worst, this approach can truly cause damage. Schools cut field trips to purchase tablets with few proven benefits. Companies that applied AI into hiring have actually strengthened gender and racial prejudices.True innovation isn't just some magic devices. It is a continuing process of reflection and reassessment, which often means adopting "old" ideas and tools in a new context, or even returning to methods that worked in the past. Adjusted properly, these rearview(后视的)innovations have proved as transformative as novel technologies.Look no farther than the streets of New York, which have been redesigned recently to accommodate cyclists with car-free zones. The idea isn't new. It was created half a century ago, with the aim of bringing cities back to their residents. And while e-reader sales have been exploding, Penguin just announced it would publish tiny printed books, an ideal solution for a market demanding both convenience and physicality.12. Which of the following best describes Samcheong Park Library?A. Dull but convenient.B. Simple but refreshing.C. Old-fashioned but cozy.D. Unexceptional but spacious.13. What can we learn about innovation from Paragraph 3?A. Its true meaning is to buy new things.B. It is important for the growth of economy.C. It shouldn't involve simple and effective ideas.D. Its true meaning has been misread by the public.14. Which statement will the author probably agree with?A. Magic devices encourage innovation.B. Innovation should be human-centered.C. The power of technology is undervalued.D. Wasting resources are a must for innovation.15. What is the writing purpose of the text?A. To introduce some best ideas about innovation.B. To show that future lies in returning to the past.C. To convince people of the true meaning of innovation.D. To stress the important role innovation plays in economy.第二部分阅读七选五(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。

For this was what the notice jus t inside the entrance promised. lt said, ‘Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This may be your lucky day!’For several weeks Mrs White hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, however, she never lost heart. Her kitchen was full of things which she did not really need. Her husband tried again and again to persuade her to give it up, but she just wouldn’t listen. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would come up to say, ‘Madam, this is your lucky day. everything in your basket today is free.’One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy some tea. She rushed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went to the desk to pay for it. As she was walking, she saw the manager of the supermarket coming up. ‘Madam,’ he said warmly, holding out his hand, ‘I wan’t to congratulate you’ You are our lucky customer today.

Everybody knows that TV has played an important part in the increase of fight and murder in many countries.

He was working in a factory in a town with a small population. He liked his job, the small town, and even the boss Mr Johnson. But his wife kept telling him that she could hardly support the family with such a low salary. That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Chicago, the nearest big city, which was about 50 miles away. He had been offered the job in a factory there and both pay and working conditions were far better. However, if he took the job, he would probably have to move his whole family there, and he didn’t like the idea of living in such a noisy big place.Mr Johnson, the manager of the factory where Tom worked, was in deep trouble now. His small factory produced electric motors. But the Japanese were selling such machines at very low prices in the world market. As a result, Mr Johnson had to cut his own prices. Otherwise, he would not get any orders at all. There was very little money in his hand, and none for rises for his men. He was just feeling sad in his office when the telephone rang.The office boy told him that Tom wanted to see him about something important as soon as possible. Mr Johnson could guess what it was. Tom was a good young engineer. The factory would have no future unless it could keep men like him. Mr Johnson rubbed his hands. His problems seemed endless. Times were hard.1.
