My city, neighborhood and block are filled with people who don’t know me, don’t care to know me, and don’t talk to me. I find that it’s pretty hard to love people you don’t even know. And sometimes, we all, myself included, use that as an excuse not to try. I read Brendan’s story recently and was moved.One day, Brendan, a young man in New York was on the way back to his Brooklyn apartment when a homeless woman called Jackie asked him for money. He said that he had no money. By the end of the week, she asked two more times, and each time he answered “No”. The woman looked sad, so Brendan said, “I am on my way to a job interview. If I get the job, I’ll take you out for lunch.”Brendan got the job. He took Jackie out for lunch. That was when their friendship began. They built a strong friendship by supporting each other and spending their birthdays, holidays and difficult times together, over a period of eight years. When Brendan’s heater broke, Jackie made a blanket for him. Two days later when he told her that he had lost his job, she left and returned minutes later, bring him food to eat. She continued to do that during the whole winter. Even with so little, she often gave back.Over these years, Jackie moved from the streets and subway stations into a halfway house, and is now moving into an apartment.

Often due to various pressures, we tend to ignore our health. This makes our body suffer and we will catch other diseases. It is the fitness level of our body that helps us fight these diseases.Health and fitness are interrelated to each other. We need to be fit to have a healthy body.Similarly, if we are healthy we shall naturally be attracted towards maintaining the fitness of our body. Health is the state of our body at a given time. We may not have any disease but still have a weak body, which is ready to be targeted by viruses. For instance, we may have a tendency to catch a cold easily. This does not definitely mean that we are not healthy. It means the fitness level is not in accordance with our age and the climatic conditions we live in.It is important for everyone to devote some time to health and fitness. There are some activities which everyone should do in our life. For instance, we must exercise daily regardless of our age and working style. There are different levels of exercises for different age groups and we must do them according to our own health and age.Additionally, it is important to relax our body. We should have at least six to eight hours of sleep every day. It helps in improving our immune(免疫) system and protects us against diseases. It also helps in keeping us calm and relaxes our mind. This, in turn, gives us new goals of health and fitness.8. According to the passage, what will be the result of ignoring our health?A.Our body will fight disease more easily.B.Viruses will attack our body easilyC.We will be under great pressureD.Our immune system will work for us.9. The underlined phrase “in accordance with” is similar to ________ in meaning,A.in control of.. B.at the sight of C.in agreement with D.in favour of10. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.Health and fitness are related to our age and working style.B.It is important to keep the fitness of our body.C.Health are closely connected with fitness.D.Health and fitness help people live a good life.11. What is the best title for the passage?A.New goals of health and fitnessB.Ways to fight discaseC.Work out on a daily basisD.Health and fitnessSeveral years ago, Jeremy Clarkson, presenter of the famous BBC television programme ‘Top Gear’, discovered that one of his guests was half German and half Irish. Immediately, he said, “That’s quite a strange combination. It’s like, ‘this must be done absolutely perfectly… tomorrow’ ”.This joke played on stereotypes of the Germans as efficient and the Irish as lazy. Many people could understandably be offended by these kinds of assertions(断言). We do not know every Irish person, so how can we then conclude that every Irish person is lazy?I recently read on a website that Irish b usiness people were described as being “generally rather casual” and “more outwardly friendly than many European countries”. German business people, on the other hand, are considered to be very direct and according to the website, they “do not need a perso nal relationship in order to do business”. Once you hear advice like this, it becomes easier to understand where jokes like the one in the first paragraph come from.So why do some people disapprove of the kind of stereotypes as seen in Clarkson’s joke, b ut not batting an eyelid(眨眼) when it comes to generalizations. What is the difference between the two?By definition, a stereotype is a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing. A cultural characteristic, on the other hand, is a pattern of behaviour that is typical of a certain group.So what does this really mean? Stereotypes are simply overstated assumptions about groups of people. Imagine if a tourist visited a small town in Switzerland and saw a number of locals playing the alphorn instrument, and then claimed that Swiss people can play the alphorn. This would be a stereotype! This is an overstated image of the Swiss which is based on one tourist’s experience.If, however, this tourist were to say that the Swiss are very punctual, this could be seen as a cultural characteristic. This is because it is a pattern of behaviour which is very typical in Switzerland: from their transport system to their business meetings. In this way, some people argue that generalizing another culture is not just useful, but important. Politicians always have to be mindful of the cultural characteristics of different countries. By becoming aware of different cultural characteristics, they can avoid causing offence in those cultures. However, others argue that generalizing cultures will always lead to offensive stereotypes. They argue that the best thing we can do is to stop generalizing cultures and start treating people as individuals.All this raises important questions: can making generalizations about groups of people be a positive thing? Or should we always avoid making broad assumptions about different groups?12. When he said, “It’s like, ‘this must be done absolutely perfectly…tomorrow’”, Jeremy Clarkson really meant ________.A.the stereotypes of the Germans and the Irish are not so goodB.the combination of half German and half Irish is interestingC.the characteristics of the Germans and the Irish are oppositeD.the Germans will do it perfectly tomorrow while the Irish won’t13. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The Swiss can play the alphorn quite well.B.The Irish people are considered as lazy, direct and casual.C.The Germans are thought to be efficient, friendly and direct.D.The Swiss tend to arrive on time on various occasions.14. Politicians think it important to generalize another culture because ________.A.they don’t want to offend other peopleB.generalizing will lead to offensive stereotypesC.cultural characteristics are better than stereotypesD.they think different cultural characteristics are useful15. The main purpose of this passage is to ________.A.illustrate the importance of making generalizationsB.show it is wrong to play jokes on stereotypes of different peopleC.tell us the differences between stereotypes and cultural characteristicsD.discuss whether it is good to make generalizations about groups of peopleFamily meetings help your relationship with your teenagersOne good way to build cooperation among everyone in a family is to have a regular family meeting. Getting into the habit of family meetings takes time. Making the meetings work takes effort 16Meet at a regular time. A regular time might be once a week. Plan to have the meeting last from twenty minutes to an hour.Make a list of topics. Some people call this list of topics an agenda. Post it on the refrigerator. Then people can add to it during the days before the meeting 1718 The leader reads the meeting list and keeps things on track. Still, letting each person in the family have a chance to lead is important. Younger children will need help to do this.Take notes. Write down the agreements and plans made in the meeting. These written notes are the minutes. Take turns doing the job of note-taking 19 Some families put them on the refrigerator near the next meeting’s agenda. Ask teens and older children to read the notes to younger children who don’t read yet.Do what you agree to do. Stick to agreements until the next meeting. If people want to change the agreements, they can do it then. Children, teenagers and parents are expected to do what agree to do, Take time for fun. Meetings are a good way to solve problems 20 To add fun to meetings, talk about good things. Thank each person for some help given during the week. Ask each person to do the same. Ask people to talk about what is good for them right now, This sets a positive tone. It also teaches your children to encourage other people and themselves.Every year I’d read over 2,000 college applications from students all over the world.

Coming back has been a tougher transition than expected. It’s not just about transitioning back to home life; it’s also about handling the strange situation of being a different person in the same old environment. I am most terrified of waking up in a few months and feeling like I’m the same person I was before I studied abroad.This situation is especially strange with people who have known me for a long time, like my parents, who witnessed all my major life changes before this one. I didn’t realize how much I’d changed until I interacted with them and close friends. Despite only being away for three and a half months, I quickly noticed the differences between who I was before and who I am now. Over the past few weeks at home, I’ve been wondering how to maintain the positive changes and qualities gained from my semester abroad.I’ve realized that surroundings and situations greatly influence mindset, and keeping a certain mindset while losing its corresponding (相对应的) environment is challenging. For instance, being in Madrid taught me to be more relaxed and stress-free. However, returning to Penn State with its demanding course load makes maintaining that mentality (心态) difficult. I’ve come to realize the problem that perpetual stress about school isn’t healthy, especially after experiencing a semester of travel, fun, and academic success. Therefore, I’ve decided to work hard and study as usual but occasionally give myself a break, and do what I can to avoid getting over-stressed about tests and assignments. This means I will put in effort when necessary in order to make sure I am always caught up or ahead of class material.Coming home has been more challenging than expected, but I’m confident I’ll get throughit in the next few weeks. Nevertheless, I’m determined to maintain the important lessons I learned about myself and others in Madrid.4.What was the author’s biggest concern when returning home?A.Going back to his original self.B.Adapting to new surroundings.C.Experiencing culture shock.D.Missing old acquaintances.5.What did the author realize after returning home?A.He should make his family familiar with his positive changes.B.He should change his mentality to care less about his study.C.He should adapt his mindset to fit into the old learning environment.D.He should apply himself to his study to stay ahead of class.6.What does the underlined word “perpetual” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Current.B.Improper.C.Unnecessary.D.Continuous. 7.What is the passage mainly about?A.The sufferings of reverse culture shock.B.The reflections on personal growth.C.The adaptations to new environments.D.The success in academic performance.As we age, even if we’re healthy, the heart just isn’t as efficient in processing oxygen as it used to be. In most people the first signs show up in their 50s or early 60s. And among people who don’t exercise, the changes can start even sooner.“Think of a rubber band. In the beginning, it is flexible, but put it in a drawer for 20 years and it will become dry and easily broken,” says Dr. Ben Levine, a heart specialist at the University of Texas. That’s what happens to the heart. Fortunately for those in midlife, Levine is finding that even if you haven’t been an enthusiastic exerciser, getting in shape now may help improve your aging heart.Levine and his research team selected volunteers aged between 45 and 64 who did not exercise much but were otherwise healthy. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. The first group participated in a program of nonaerobic (无氧) exercise—balance training and weight training—three times a week. The second group did high-intensity aerobic exercise under the guidance of a trainer for four or more days a week. After two years, the second group saw remarkable improvements in heart health.“We took these 50-year-old hearts and turned the clock back to 30-or 35-year-old hearts,” says Levine. “And the reason they got so much stronger and fitter was that their hearts could now fill a lot better and pump (泵送) a lot more blood during exercise.” But the hearts of those who participated in less intense exercise didn’t change, he says.“The sweet spot in life to start exercising, if you haven’t already, is in late middle age when the heart still has flexibility,” Levine says. “We put healthy 70-year-olds through a yearlong exercise training program, and nothing happened to them at all.”Dr. Nieca Goldberg, a spokeswoman for the American Heart Association, says Levine’s findings are a great start. But the study was small and needs to be repeated with far larger groups of people to determine exactly which aspects of an exercise routine make the biggest difference. 8.What does Levine want to explain by mentioning the rubber band?A.The right way of exercising.B.The causes of a heart attack.C.The difficulty of keeping fit.D.The aging process of the heart.9.In which aspect were the two groups different in terms of research design?A.Diet plan.B.Professional background.C.Exercise type.D.Previous physical condition.10.What does Levine’s research find?A.Middle-aged hearts get younger with aerobic exercise.B.High-intensity exercise is more suitable for the young.C.It is never too late for people to start taking exercise.D.The more exercise we do, the stronger our hearts get.11.What does Dr. Nieca Goldberg suggest?A.Making use of the findings.B.Interviewing the study participants.C.Conducting further research.D.Clarifying the purpose of the study.In the spring, the western tanagers (唐纳雀) prepared to migrate (迁徙) thousands of miles to the forests of the Mountain West, flying through grasslands, deserts, and occasionally, suburban yards.To fuel them on their lengthy journey, western tanagers feed on insects and berries. They must take advantage of the early-season boom in insects that started with springtime plant growthto produce healthy young. But as global climate change caused spring to start earlier, birds such as western tanagers were arriving at their destination after what was known as “green-up”, when flowers began blooming and insects popped up. With the shift of the time when plants put out new leaves, western tanagers became more likely to reach their destinations when food is in shortage or after insect numbers have begun to drop.Scott Loss, a professor at Oklahoma State University and his colleagues used satellite imagery to calculate the average start of spring green-up along the typical migration routes of 150 North American bird species, and then compared that timing with the current green-up. They found that spring was indeed beginning earlier along birds’ migration routes. The trend continued this year.The paper continued to build this picture of the inability of birds to track the changing seasons caused by climate change. Timing mismatches between birds and their food could affect whether birds survived the migration and how many chicks they had.Morgan Tingley, a researcher at UCLA said that the migration research could indicate conservation efforts in the future. “Part of it suggested which species were vulnerable (易受伤害的) to various threats,” Tingley said. “This added to the knowledge about vulnerability of a wide range of bird species.” And he hoped that the information would serve to highlight the urgent need to lower greenhouse-gas emissions as fast as possible: “It was really important, if we couldn’t address climate change immediately, to try to stop habitat loss as much as we can.”12.During the migration, what will happen to the western tanagers after “green-up” ?A.They will struggle to find enough insects and berries.B.They will have difficulty finding suitable nesting sites.C.They will hardly find blooming flowers for reproduction.D.They will find it hard to survive harsher weather conditions.13.What is the direct result of the timing mismatch between birds and their food?A.The loss of birds’ habitats.B.The decrease of birds’ survival rate.C.The contribution to the greenhouse effect.D.The increase of difficulty in biodiversity conservation.14.What is Morgan Tingley’s attitude towards the research findings in the last paragraph?A.Uncertain.B.Critical.C.Concerned.D.Indifferent.15.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.The Diverse Patterns of Bird MigrationB.The Timing Mismatch of Western TanagersC.The Impact of Climate Change on Migratory BirdsD.The Vulnerability of Bird Species to Various ThreatsThese days, most people like using messaging apps when they need to communicate with someone. But sometimes making a call is unavoidable. However, this simple act can actually be a nightmare for some people. 16 . If this sounds familiar to you, you might be one of the millions of people who suffer from telephobia — the fear of speaking over the phone.17 When speaking face-to-face, we use facial expressions and gestures that help each other follow the conversation. This is not the case over the phone. And the idea of speaking with someone on the phone makes some people so terrified that they will freeze up and look foolish. However, there are things that one suffering from this condition can do to ease this fear.One thing that those with telephobia can do before a call is smile. 18 It won’t remove the anxiety altogether, but it will take the edge off it.Similarly, imagining how the call will go before you make it can also help things go more smoothly. That will make you feel less nervous and help you predict some possible problems. There’s no need to spend hours on this, just a few minutes forming several ideas of what you want to say. 19 This is particularly useful for dealing with the fear of not being able to express yourself spontaneously (自然地).And finally, when faced with receiving a call, you don’t always have to pick up. 20 A.Doing so can help you feel more relaxed.B.It’s often the opening lines that give us the most anxiety.C.Their heart race and their hands sweat at the very thought of it.D.People who feel comfortable in social situations may experience telephobia.E.The most important thing is to be aware of your fear and take steps to deal with it.F.You can even write down some brief notes to remind yourself of your talking.G.There’s nothing wrong with calling the person back later when you feel more comfortable.二、完形填空Every day on the way to work, I drive down a street lined with pine trees.

2023-2024学年甘肃省兰州第一中学高一上学期10月月考英语试题
2023-2024学年甘肃省兰州第一中学高一上学期10月月考英语试题Take a global tour of the world’s best frozen treatsFrozen custard, The United StatesSoft serve frozen custard is a typical American ice cream. Different than frozen yogurt, which is made with cultured yogurt and sugar, frozen custard is a combination of milk, cream, sugar and egg yolks(蛋黄). Traditional American ice cream sometimes has egg yolks, too, but the difference is the texture(口感): custard is dense because it’s made in a machine that doesn’t incorporate air into the ingredients.Raspado, MexicoRaspados are the Mexican version of American snow cones. But while snow cones are made using excessively sweet syrup, raspados have real fruits or fresh fruit juices. The sweet and cold treat is everywhere throughout Mexico and sold at street carts. These carts sell a range of fruit-based flavors such as pineapple, orange and mango.Gelato, ItalyPasta aside, ice cream is considered to be Italy’s culi nary symbol. In fact, visiting the local gelateria(意大利风味冰激凌店)is a way of life for Italians. Italians gather at gelaterias to socialize. They’re popular hangouts and cultural icons. Italian gelato is lower in fat than traditional ice cream. It is crafted with whole milk, eggs, sugar and flavoring — hazelnut, pistachio and vanilla ice cream mixed with pieces of chocolate are the most beloved flavors.Dondurma, TurkeyIs there any ice cream that doesn’t melt? Yes, that’s exactly what dondurma or Turkish ice cr eam is. Buying dondurma is like watching a performance. The men who sell it wear traditional Turkish clothes and a sultan hat and stretch, twist and turn the ice cream until it lands into a cone. Kids and adults get a kick out of the show1. How does frozen custard differ from traditional American ice cream?A.It contains egg yolks. B.It is denser in texture.C.It is sold at street carts. D.It stays frozen for longer.2. Which country has turned ice cream into a cultural element?A.The United States. B.Mexico.C.Italy. D.Turkey.3. Which ice cream has the most interesting buying experience?A.Frozen custard. B.Raspado.C.Gelato. D.Dondurma.Recently, the “city walk” has been g aining steam among residents and tourists around China. On social platform Xiaohongshu, data shows that the number of city walk-related topic posts has increased by 700 percent over the past three months, and the total number of interactions has increased by more than 600 percent.A city walk is a form of urban tourism originating in the UK. Unlike traditional sightseeing, which aims to hit famous attractions and commercial center, usually by vehicles with tense schedules, city walk is about “roaming”(漫步)around a city on foot, soaking up the atmosphere and finding unusual things that even a resident of the city might not have noticed before. Such walks generally avoid famous scenic spots and shopping centers, and take you to places where you can have real interactions with the local people, eat at small but authentic restaurants, and gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of the city. City walkers are a cast of people who possess intense curiosity. They are eager to engage with the city they are visiting or reside in their own way. By “roaming” on foot, city walke rs can better feel the texture and listen to the breath of a place. They seek pleasure more through connection than consumption, which indicates a deep cultural curiosity. For example, in Chongqing, if you don’t take a walk, you can hardly experience the unique geographical charm of the mountainous city. Be it the hutong in Beijing or the Chinese parasol tree district in Shanghai; city walks allow people to see the scenery apart from the scene and uncover hidden knowledge.The appeal of a city walk lies in the young generation’s changing attitude toward life — pursuing quality leisure time while being occupied with demanding workloads and limited time for exploration.While roaming along the road, you can entirely focus on yourself and listen to your inner voice and care for what you feel, which is a way to love yourself and benefit your mental health. Just like Oscar Wilde once said, “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.”4. What do the underlined words “gaining steam” in paragraph 1 probab ly mean?A.Raising concerns. B.Getting outdated.C.Becoming popular. D.Causing trouble.5. How does the city walk differ from traditional sightseeing?A.It pursues economical tourism.B.It is usually well-organized and scheduled.C.It helps promote the authentic food of the destination.D.It focuses on feeling the local culture by connecting the city.6. What do we know about city walkers?A.They are keen to buy souvenirs.B.They tend to walk as much as possible.C.They have strong curiosity about the local culture.D.They prefer the city landscape to the natural scenery.7. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.Why young people fall in love with a city walk.B.How popular the city walk is among citizens.C.What people often do during a city walk.D.Why city walk changes people’s lifestyle.Rain or shine, Tsering Chopa treks (艰苦跋涉) for long hours to deliver mail. For 18 years, the Tibetan mailman has been an important link between a remote, high-altitude settlement and the rest of the world. At 5,373 meters above sea level, Pumachangthang in Nakarze county of the Tibet autonomous region is China’s highest township(乡镇). The oxygen level is less than 40 percent and the annual average temperature is –7℃ . However, these weren’t the biggest cha llenges for a postal service. The area of the township is about 1,500 square kilometers, but its population is less than 2,000. The distance from the county town is some 70 km and a single trip to all the six villages can be as long as 160 km. The dogged perseverance required to get the job done under such conditions needs no further explanation.The busiest time for Tsering Chopa is between July and August each year, when students are waiting for their admission letters from various universities. He recalls once he had to deliver mail to one student whose family had already moved away. He had to quiz neighbors several times to find the new address. It was summer and the usual road to the village was blocked because of rain. He trekked for more than 20 km and grappled with shortness of breath all the way to finally deliver the letter. “I don’t mind the hardships because it is not easy for students from remote villages to get college admission. It was my duty to deliver the mail on time,” he says.One night in February 2019, a local resident Nyima Tsering’s daughter had fainted and desperately needed help. Knowing that, the mailman arranged for a car right away and sent her to the county hospital. He also gave some cash to the family for the girl’s treatment. Nyima Tsering’s daughter recovered soon, and Tsering Chopa became an idol in the village. “I will never forget his compassion and kindness,” says the grateful father.In 2019, Tsering Chopa received the China Youth May Fourth Medal. “It is an acknowledgment of what I do and a token of encouragement as well,” he says. “And I want to help more people living in remote areas. I want to bring the world closer to them and take them closer to the world.”8. Which is the most challenging part of Tsering Chopa’s work?A.Trekking for long distances. B.Suffering from cold temperatures.C.Standing extremely bad road conditions. D.Adapting to the high-altitudeenvironment.9. What words can best describe Tsering Chopa according to paragraph 2?A.Optimistic and cautious. B.Generous and intelligent.C.Courageous and ambitious. D.Persistent and responsible.10. How did Tsering Chopa help Nyima Tsering?A.Tsering Chopa fixed his car for free.B.Tsering Chopa saved his daughter’s life.C.Tsering Chopa delivered his admission letters quickly.D.Tsering Chopa drove him to a hospital for treatment.11. What is the best title for the text?A.Hardship Makes a Good Postman B.A Mailman Shows Kindness to Students C.A Postman in Tiebet Bridges Huge Gap D.Post Service Creates a Convenient LifeWe all know that our body language can give off signals to those around us about how we’re truly feeling. Crossed arms or closed body language suggests that we are feeling defensive (防御的) and we didn’t really believe what we’re listening to. Walking here and there suggests that we’re bored. And poor eye contact can suggest that we’re lying.One major development in the field of body language that hit the headlines is the “power pose.” This is a theory put forward in 2011 by U.S. social psychologists Amy Cuddy, Dana Carney and Andy Yap. They proposed that when you pretend to be powerful, you are more likely to actually feel powerful.What the theory suggests is that the simple act of holding a powerful pose can have powerful impact. For example, sitting with your legs up on the desk and arms held behind your head can raise your androgen levels and lower your cortisol (皮质醇) levels. Androgen is the hormone that affects dominance (控制); cortisol is the stress hormone. The study assessed participa nts’ hormone levels before and after they held high-power and low-power poses.Just as a male gorilla beats his chest to tell his dominance, humans can use body language to enhance their confidence, increase feelings of power, and lower their stress levels. These findings build on several psychological studies suggesting that some aspects of body language can change your emotional state. For instance, someone nodding “yes” to you can make you easier to persuade, and when you smile, you can feel more positive.So, how can powerful poses help us in the workplace? Well, the study proposes that, simply by striking a powerful pose, you can better prepare yourself for difficult or stressful situations. Perhaps you’ve got a presentation that you’re nervous about gi ving, or a job interview coming up. Holding a power pose, even in private, can help you to approach these events in a confident and less-stressed way. In contrast, a weak pose with closed body language can make you perform poorly.12. If one pretends to be strong, _________.A.he is hiding his scare B.he may need others’ helpC.he is more likely to feel strong D.he may doubt what he is listening to13. How will people feel if they have high cortisol?A.Confident. B.Stressed.C.Bored. D.Defensive.14. Why are the examples mentioned in paragraph 4?A.To highlight the truth of the power pose. B.To show the body language of gorillas.C.To persuade people to be more positive. D.To explain the changes in body language.15. What may be the writer’s suggesti on for working?A.Keeping calm in difficult situations.B.Taking part in formal events actively.C.Using a powerful pose to help ourselves.D.Using more body language in job interviews.Diaries are wonderful objects that allow you to discuss your emotions, record dreams or ideas, and reflect on daily life in a safe, private space. 1617 .Think about everything that happened that day and record any highlights or feelings that stand out to you. Even if you had a pretty standard day, you might be surprised by deeper thoughts and feelings that come up as you write down details about your day.Contemplate your goals for the future and how to achieve them. 18 .Then go through each item on the list and write in detail about your plan to accomplish the goal. Breaking each goal up into smaller tasks that you can work on can make your goals feel less overwhelming.Jot down your current feelings or mood. Don’t worry about providing any context fo r your emotions, just focus on accurately describing what they are. You can then use those feelings and thoughts as prompts for creating detailed diary entries. 19 .Write down inspirational quotes and what they mean to you. 20 . Any quote you find inspiring is a great starting point. Record the quote in your diary and note where it came from. Then, explain what it means to you in your own words.What started off as a typical Friday turned into the “_______night diving” ever for boat captain Jennifer Dowker of Cheboygan, Michigan.Dowker was cleaning the windows of her vessel(船), the “Yankee Sunshine”, _______she spotted a green _______on the top of a fish bed.

Email the SPP office at ******************. 1.What does SPP aim to do?A.To help college students to achieve academic success.B.To provide admission guidelines for pre-college students.C.To get high school students well-prepared for college life.D.To encourage students to participate in hands-on learning.2.What are students supposed to do to earn the required credits?A.Carry out STEM research.B.Attend various seminars.C.Finish the courses online.D.Join in experiential learning.3.What can we know about students living on campus?A.They can organize social activities.B.They will have access to a single room.C.They are provided with good security.D.They are advised to direct comedyshows.“I can’t connect with your characters.”I kept hearing the same feedback and was unable to understand why and not sure what to do. I was a character-driven writer. How could I mess up the one thing I was supposed to be good at? I was determined to convince my agent that these characters were real. After all, I knew they were real. My main character Lotus had lived inside me for years. I just needed to clarify her on the page.I wrote and edited for a year, trying to respond to this agent’s feedback. But Lotus’ personality began to disappear. I tried to have her make “better” decisions, wear smarter fashion, and have more friends, as my agent said she acted “immature” and was “isolated”. And when this agent ultimately parted ways with me, I felt like I had failed. Now with time and distance, I realize I tried to fit Lotus into a neurotypical style to please my agent. And as a result, Lotus lost her Lotus-ness.When that agent discouraged me from writing Lotus as autistic(自闭的), he said that would make Lotus seem more “vulnerable(脆弱的)” or an “obvious victim”. I didn’t want Lotus to seem vulnerable. Lotus’ autism is what makes her powerful, I tried to explain. But from a neurotypical perspective, Lotus’ autism could only be seen as a weakness.Unsure of how to convince my agent of the strength and power autistic women hold, Ibegan to write Lotus as “neurotypical”. And I failed miserably. After all, what do I know about being neurotypical? My whole life, autism was my default. Not being diagnosed until 2020, I assumed the way I saw the world was “normal”.My current agent encourages me to write from my neurodivergent(神经多样性的) experience. With this invitation, I revisited Lotus and saw her the way I first wrote her. And when I did, the characters and the entire narrative began to make more sense.Identifying my characters as neurodivergent not only gives me joy as a writer, but it has produced my strongest writing. For so long, I’ve combatted the advice to “write what I know”, in part because I didn’t know what I actually knew. I didn’t know I was neurodivergent. But as I mine the specificity of my lived experience, my writing is stronger. There is a power to our lived experience. It’s not a limitation on our craft, but a swinging open of the gates. 4.How did the author feel when receiving the repeated response from the first agent?A.Confused.B.Convinced.C.Determined.D.Disappointed. 5.Lotus’ personality got lost because ______A.Lotus no longer lived inside the author B.the author attempted to please the agent C.the agent failed to sympathize with Lotus D.Lotus was considered childish and lonely 6.What do we know about the author?A.She regretted parting with the agent.B.She owed her success in life to autism.C.She was aware of her autism in the early years.D.She was empowered by her autistic experience.7.What has the author learned from her own experience?A.Stick to your dream despite discouragement.B.Be true to yourself and write from your heart.C.Giving in to authority is the barrier to success.D.Everyone is born an original instead of a copy.At one time, the inheritance of traditional drama was difficult. People of insight screamed “save drama”. Many celebrities and big names put down their figures and went to the community to carry out public welfare performances of opera, and did everything possible to expand the coverage of drama. In recent years, traditional Chinese culture and art has gained a foothold on short video platforms and attracted a large number of young followersthanks to the explosive growth of the short video industry. Relaxing, emotional and fragmented, these video contents perfectly match the demands of the users. With the application of new technologies such as social communication and immersive experiencing, short video platforms are seeing more users, becoming a shining spot of new Internet media.Recently, Huangmei Opera “ Female Consort Prince ” became a hit on short video platforms as a lot of young users covered the aria (咏叹调) in their own way and showed great artistic talents. The interactive platforms are expanding the charm of the traditional opera among young people.Peking Opera was also well-received on short video platforms thanks to a series of augmented reality (AR) effects. Users love to film clips with a set of virtual facial makeup, headwear and costumes. Statistics indicate that these effects were applied by more than 18 million users, most of whom were young people.In addition to Chinese operas, intangible cultural heritage items, such as embroidery, paper-cutting, printing and dyeing, shadow play works, oiled paper umbrella making, and bamboo weaving are also actively promoted on short video platforms. In a word, short video platforms are becoming an important channel to display China’s intangible cultural heritage.Short video platforms, offering a fun, popular and easy way to explore the traditional art forms, are receiving a lot of positive feedbacks from China’s young generations. The seconds, or minutes long videos, along with unlimited possibilities as well as richness of styles, have produced remarkable achievements in promoting traditional Chinese culture.8.What mainly made the inheritance of traditional drama difficult?A.The slow growth of industry.B.The insufficient coverage of drama.C.The poorly-met demands of the users.D.The severe shortage of the drama actors. 9.What led to the promotion of Peking Opera on short video platform?A.The social communication.B.The set of virtual facial makeup.C.The positive feedbacks from users.D.The application of new technologies. 10.Why are paper-cutting and bamboo weaving mentioned?A.To expand the charm of traditional Chinese culture.B.To prove traditional art forms are actively promoted.C.To show the current situation of these cultural heritage.D.To offer new channels to display China’s cultural heritage.11.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.The Bright Future of Huangmei Opera.B.The Explosive Growth of the Short Video Industry.C.The Simple Way to Explore the Traditional Art Form.D.The Creative Combination of Culture and Technologies.Several years ago, Jeremy Clarkson, presenter of the famous BBC television programme “Top Gear” discovered that one of his guests was half German and half Irish. Immediately, he said: “That's quite a strange combination. It's like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”.This joke played on stereotypes (刻板印象) of the Germans as efficient and the Irish as lazy. Many people could understandably be offended by these kinds of assertions (断言).We do not know every Irish person, so how can we then conclude that every Irish person is lazy?I recently read on a website that Irish business people were described as being 'generally rather casual' and more outwardly friendly than many European counties'. German business people, on the other hand, are considered to be very direct and according to the website, they do not need a personal relationship in order to do business. Once you hear advice like this,it becomes easier to understand where jokes like the one in the first paragraph come from.So why do some people disapprove of the kind of stereotypes as seen in Clarkson's joke, but not baring an eyelid (眨眼) when it comes to generalizations. What is the difference between the two?By definition, a stereotype is a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing. A cultural characteristic, on the other hand, is a pattern of behaviour that is typical of a certain group.So what does this really mean? Stereotype are simply overstated assumptions about groups of people. Imagine if a tourist visited a small town in Switzerland and saw a number of locals playing the alphorn instrument, and then claimed that Swiss people can play the alphorn. This would be a stereotype! This is an overstated image of the Swiss which is based on one tourist's experience.If however, this tourist were to say that the Swiss are very punctual, this could be seen as a cultural characteristic. This is because it is a pattern of behaviour which is very typical in Switzerland: from their transport system to their business meetings in this way, some people argue that generalizing another culture is not just useful. but important. Politicians alwayshave to be mindful of the cultural characteristics of different countries. By becoming aware of different cultural characteristics,they can avoid causing offence (冒犯) in those cultures.However, others argue that generalizing cultures will always lead to offensive stereotypes. They argue that the best thing we can do is to stop generalizing cultures and start treating people as individuals.All this raises important questions: can making generalizations about groups of people be a positive thing? Or should we always avoid making broad assumptions about different groups?12.When he said, “it's like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”,Jeremy Clarkson really meant________.A.the stereotypes of the Germans and the Irish are not so goodB.the combination of half German and half Irish is interestingC.the characteristics of the Germans and the Irish are oppositeD.the Germans will do it perfectly tomorrow while the Irish won't13.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.It's typical of the Swiss to be punctual.B.The Swiss can play the alphorn quite well.C.The Irish people are considered as lazy, direct and casual.D.The Germans are thought to be efficient, friendly and direct.14.Politicians think it important to generalize another culture because________.A.they don't want to offend other peopleB.generalizing will lead to offensive stereotypesC.cultural characteristics are better than stereotypesD.they think different cultural characteristics are useful15.The main purpose of this passage is to________.A.illustrate the importance of making generalizationsB.show it is wrong to play jokes on stereotypes of different peopleC.tell us the differences between stereotypes and cultural characteristicsD.discuss whether it is good to make generalizations about groups of people二、七选五“Just think positively!”“It could be worse.”“You should look at the bright side!”We’ve all heard (and maybe used) these phrases without much thought. But they could be contributing to a culture of toxic(有毒的) positivity. For those new to this term, it might sound like an oxymoron(矛盾修辞法). How can positivity be toxic? Isn’t it supposed to be helpful, or “positive”, as the name suggests? 16“Toxic positivity is when somebody avoids all negative thoughts or feelings, pretending everything is going well when it is not,” explains Melissa Dowd, a therapist at PlushCare, a virtual health platform for primary care and mental health services.Whitney Goodman, the author of Toxic Positivity describes toxic positivity as the “endless pressure to be happy and positive, no matter what the circumstances are.” 17 It’s also something we can cause other people to experience.Expressing toxic positivity to others may look like offering them a simple solution to a complicated problem that we know nothing about, or not allowing people around you to appropriately express negative emotions.Toxic positivity causes us to suppress our emotions, which can make them worse.18 “Although it can be helpful to look on the bright side when facing challenges,” Dowd says, “not coping with negative feelings in a healthy way in the moment can lead to those feelings resurfacing later in different areas of your life or as a form of anxiety.” 19 “If I feel like you’re going to dismiss me, I’m going to stop sharing how I’m feeling,” Goodman adds.20 If you’re using toxic positivity against yourself, Goodman suggests remembering it’s OK if you’re upset about something. It’s valid if something annoys you. “Allow ourselves and other people to share when they’re going through a difficult time,” she says. Dowd adds that it’s essential that “we all learn to cope with and process our emotions in a healthy way as opposed to avoiding how we feel” as life’s stressors continue to rise. For example, instead of simply saying “Just think positively,” we’d better say “Sometimes bad things happen. How can I help?”A.Are there ways to avoid toxic positivity?B.Toxic positivity also disrupts connection.C.It can harm people who are going through difficult times.D.This can come up in different situations when we are dealing with pressure.E.They become more intense and can cause long-lasting health concerns in the future.F.Experts say constant forced positivity can lead to the opposite, and have a negative effect.G.This is what we may bring on to ourselves by not allowing negative thoughts and feelings.三、完形填空I am 39 I made it through.

河北省邢台市第一中学2023-2024学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题
河北省邢台市第一中学2023-2024学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Sharon, 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 for 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 do.David, Aged 19I’m not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; 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.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both anxious and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join in 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 and worried too, especially since I had been home schooled 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.1.What can we infer from Sharon’s words 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.2.Who mentions the importance of friends?A.David.B.Frank.C.Sharon.D.Eddie.3.How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A.Excited.B.Worried.C.Bored.D.Relaxed.At thirteen, I was diagnosed with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write about it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.She glanced down at me through her glasses, “You are not different from your classmates, young man.”I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.Wasn’t I the “blind” one in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts flowed and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was not different from others; I just needed a quieter place. Now that Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up? I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day —with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep tying.”4.Why did the author fail to finish class reading?A.He had poor reading skills.B.He was tired of literature.C.He had an attention disorder.D.He wanted to take the task home. 5.What do we know about Louis Braille from the text?A.He was poor.B.He was very creative.C.He was near-sighted.D.He was well-educated.6.What was Mrs. Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?A.Angry.B.Impatient.C.Supportive.D.Negative. 7.What does the text mainly want to tell us?A.The blind should be treated with respect.B.Teachers can open up a new world to students.C.Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.D.One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.Lotus, ginkgoes, Chinese roses....On the campus of Beijing 101 Middle School, there are more than 200 types of plants. To keep a record of the rich natural resources there, the school’s students made a beautiful book: Flora of 101.“We chose 30 plants to show with pictures, basic information and particularly, a poem for each plant written by ourselves,” said 17-year-old Wang Jayantha chief editor of the book.The poems are not just describing the plants. They also reflect students’ stories.” One day I was a little upset when I smelt a fragrance (芳香). Looking down, I saw humifuse euphorbia, or dijincao (地锦草), a very common plant. Suddenly I felt comforted—it just grows and gives off a sweet scent, regardless of people stepping on it. So I wrote a poem for it,“ said Wang Jianyuan.“Every poem in the book shows students’ unique understanding of the plants, showing our school’s character and spirit through the book,” Wang Jianyuan added.Wang Jingyue, 17, painted the pictures for the book. “Many students in our school love painting. We took photos of the plants and drew them in a realistic style,” Wang Jingyue said. “Sitting there and painting give us a chance to closely watch a plant and connect with it. It feels amazing.”The students plan to print 300 copies of the book this September to give out to new students. “We hope the younger students can fall in love with the plants and the ecosystem in our school. Hopefully, when they walk along the green alleys (小径), they can find peace and inspiration.” said Wang Jianyuan.8.Why do the students make the book of plants?A.To make a record of them.B.To finish their homework.C.To publish a book about plants.D.To make themselves become famous. 9.What did Wang Jingyue learn from producing the book?A.She learned to tell stories by writing poems.B.She learned how to bestrong-willed.C.She learned how to draw in a realistic way.D.She learned more about the plants on campus.10.What can you find in the book Flora of 101?A.poems written by teachers.B.basic information about the school.C.dried flowers.D.pictures of flowers.11.What would be the best title for this passage?A.The Stories of the Plants in 101.B.A Book for the Plants in 101.C.101-A Campus With 200 Plants.D.A Book With 300 Pictures Published.In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability.Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a friend!12.Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?A.Honesty.B.Understanding.C.Reliability.D.A sense ofhumor.A.they will give you all that they have when you need help.B.you will be refused when you get into trouble.C.you can be sure that you get real friends.D.you will become rich.14.What does the underlined word “reliability ”mean in paragraph 4?A.very outgoing B.quite knowledgeable.C.can be trusted.D.willing to listen.A.the qualities of a friend.B.where to choose friends.C.how to get along with friends.D.the importance of having a friend.二、七选五Being a teenager is difficult, as many people expect you to be perfect in many differentand having the confidence to pursue your dreams. The following are some tips for you to deal with the imperfection of life.Make a series of goals to help reach your dreams. 17 You will not become the most popular kid at school, the best soccer player, or an award-winning filmmaker overnight, but you can start taking steps now to make these goals a reality.18 Volunteering, tutoring a friend, and helping your parents around the house aren’t just nice things to do, and they can improve your own well-being. Doing good makes you feel good and it builds a loving, supportive network of people around you.Give yourself some “me time” each day. Each day, take 15 minutes or more to yourself.19 Distance yourself from other people, if only for a few moments, and relax. Let your brain free from all the stresses that hit you each day. This is one of the easiest, best ways to find yourself and your goals.Remember that life isn’t perfect and that is a good thing. 20 But these issues are all chances to improve yourself, and how you react to the bad times is far more important than the bad times themselves.A.Have an active social life.B.Make time to help others.C.Perfection only comes one small step at a time.D.Exercise! It helps with stress, and may even make you happier than usual.E.However, true perfection is impossible.F.There will always be mistakes, setbacks, misunderstandings, and bad luck.G.You could read, listen to music, go for a walk, or simply lay in bed.三、完形填空25.A.lectures B.activities C.strategies D.discussions 26.A.handle B.discover C.change D.need 27.A.naughty B.noisy C.frightened D.annoyed 28.A.friend B.turn C.teacher D.day 29.A.relaxed B.balanced C.organized D.prepared 30.A.quicker B.farther C.warmer D.longer 31.A.awkward B.amazing C.exciting D.disappointing 32.A.shouting B.remembering C.learning D.hearing 33.A.Watch out B.Hurry up C.Come on D.Walk along 34.A.completely B.carefully C.dangerously D.immediately 35.A.reached B.arrived C.got D.took四、用单词的适当形式完成短文语法填空In the past three months, the performance of “Secret Box from the Tang Dynasty (唐朝)” in Xi’an 36 (become) a hit.

They will have a yoga class and a breakfast of local food during daylight hours. Anyone will have the chance to try it when it opens in 2023.“The power of a good night’s sleep can’t be ignored (忽视). It’s clear that the nation needs it now more than ever,” said Dr. Dennis Schmoltzi, CEO at Emma. Sleep. “Counting sheep is more than an old story. It’s a tested method that Brits are relying on to help them fall asleep. They’re eager for a peaceful environment when they’re trying to relax, which is important for sleep quality.”The company did a survey of 2,000 adults and found 44% of the adults had difficulty sleeping. To improve the situation, some adults have used special ways, like counting sheep to get a good night’s sleep. The study, carried out by OnePoll, shows that some factors (因素) improve adults’ sleep well, including fresh air and the sound of nature.Theresa Schnorbach, a sleep scientist at Emma Sleep, said, “People can use a pleasant and relaxing method to help them sleep, like counting sheep as they jump over a fence. The aim is to control worrying thoughts. I think this not only reduces the time it takes to fall asleep but also improves sleep quality.”8.What can we know about the “Shleep Sanctuary” in Paragraph 2?A.It’s a popular British hotel.B.It’s a center for morning yoga lessons.C.It offers a chance to count real sheep.D.It provides many treatments for sleep problems.9.What does the author imply about counting sheep in Paragraph 3?A.It’s peaceful.B.It’s boring.C.It’s relaxing.D.It’s useful.10.What is one of the ways to improve the sleep according to the study?A.Yoga class.B.Local food.C.Outdoor activities.D.Favorite music. 11.What is Theresa Schnorbach’s attitude towards counting sheep?A.Supportive.B.Worrying.C.Unclear.D.Doubtful.Researchers have developed a new soft robot with three behaviours at the same time: rolling (翻滚) forward, turning like a record and following a path that goes around a central point. The equipment, which operates without human or computer control, is useful for developing soft robots that can be used to map unknown environments. The new soft robots are made of something like a ribbon (缎带) and then joined together at the end to form a ring.When the robots are placed on a surface that is at least 55 degrees Celsius, which is hotter than the surrounding air, one part of the ribbon touching the surface becomes smaller, while one part in the air does not. This results in a rolling movement: the warmer the surface, the faster the robot rolls. “The ribbon rolls on its horizontal axis (横轴), giving the ring forward strength.” says Jie Yin, a professor of mechanical engineering.The robot also turns along its central axis. And as it moves forward it travels in a path around a central point, basically moving in a large circle. However, if the robot meets a boundary (障碍), like the wall of a box, it will travel along the boundary.The twisted ring robots are examples of equipment whose behaviour is controlled by physical intelligence, meaning their actions are determined by their structural design and the materials they are made of, rather than being directed by a computer or human.“Soft robotics is still a relatively new field.” Yin says. “Finding new ways to control the movement of soft robots in a repeatable and engineered way moves the field forward. And advancing our understanding of what is possible is exciting.”12.What makes the robot roll faster?A.The ribbon.B.The central axis.C.The shape and material.D.The surface temperature.13.How does the author introduce the new soft robots?A.By explaining the working ways.B.By listing experts’ opinions.C.By making some comparisons.D.By offering reasons and results.14.Why can the robot keep travelling when meeting a boundary?A.It is controlled by computer.B.It has special equipment.C.It has its own intelligence.D.It is designed by human.15.What is the best title for the text?A.Ribbons and Their Rolling B.The New Soft RobotsC.Three Creative Movements D.Twisted Rings and the AxisDo you want to start a club at your high school? If your school doesn’t offer a particular club that you’re interested in, starting your own is a great way! You will meet new people there.16Before you start your own club, make sure that you understand how high school clubs are run.Clubs are a great way for students to participate in activities they enjoy, learn new skills, and meet new people. High school clubs can cover many topics. 17Once you have your idea, make sure your school doesn't already have a similar club. 18 Once you know what you want, it's time to get started. Figure out what the purpose of the club is, what activities you want members to take part in, and what goals you have for the club. By figuring this out, you will be able to write a proposal. 19 This may be as simple as filling out a form, or it may require discussing the club with teachers or school staff.20 Try to create a poster a week or two before the first meeting. Try to make it eye-catching and interesting to look at. For a ski club, include a color photo of a person skiing down a mountain and a heading like “Love to ski? Join Jefferson High School’s new ski club!”. It will catch students’ interest and attract them to attend the first meeting.A.After that, spread the news.B.You can do this by asking your teachers.C.Club meetings are usually held after school.D.Don’t try to do too much at your first meeting.E.You will also spend time doing something you enjoy.F.Most high schools require clubs to go through a process to get approved.G.They can be from math to skiing to protecting the environment and more.二、完形填空What’s your “cheer up” song? To answer this question, you may make a list of 21 you like from childhood to now.

I had my breakfast down stairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I hadnothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me.

Studies show that public schools across the country are cutting back on music classes to save money. Even worse, some schools have never had music classes to begin with. But without them, students’ academic growth and spiritual health could suffer. In fact, music classes are necessary for all students in schools.Recent studies Brown University have shown that students who received music education classes were better in math and reading skills than those without music classes. Another study by The College Board found that students taking music and art classes got higher points. Students’ academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education.Music programs in public schools also help to add to a student’s sense of pride andself-confidence. Teens today have too many learning tasks. Besides, they have family problems, self-confidence problems, relationship troubles, and choices about smoke and alcohol. All of these can stop academic success, but music education can help. A study by The Texas Commission on Drug and Alcohol Abuse found that students who took part in school music programs were less likely to turn to smoke. Music programs encourage students to work together to produce an excellent performance.Music crosses language, class and culture. Music allows students from different countries to connect. For example, at a school talent show, a new Japanese student played a piano duet with an American classmate. Two students from different cultures worked as a team with self-confidence and common purpose through music.The gift of music is priceless. We need to be sure to have necessary music classes for all students. The world is losing its music, and putting music into schools is the first step to get it back.12.What can we learn about education with music classes?A.It allows schools to make more money.B.It can cause a lot of academic problems.C.It will affect the world cultural communication greatly.D.It does good to students’ academic success and spiritual health.13.What do the two studies seem to show?A.Students with great success attend music lessons.B.Music classes play an important role in students’ academic performance.C.Not all students could have music classes at school.D.Students who have music classes do better in all subjects.14.What does the example in Paragraph 4 mainly suggest?A.Japan has a good relationship with America.B.Different cultures have different styles of music.C.Music makes cross-cultural communication possible.D.Japanese and American students are good at playing the piano.15.What is the best title for the text?A.The Importance of Music Classes in School B.Music—A Bridge to UnderstandingC.Studies on Music Education D.How to Get Music BackBody language mistakes you should avoid at workCommunication is not only about words but also gestures. Therefore, you should be careful about how you use your body when expressing yourself.Avoiding eye contact (接触)When speaking with a workmate, avoiding eye contact makes you look unprofessional (不专业的). 16 Therefore, you should always keep eye contact especially when you are making a point.Crossing your armsCrossing your arms shows that you are not open to others and that you want to defend (防御) yourself. 17 In order to give others a warm feeling, just keep your arms open.Checking the timeChecking the time every few minutes makes people feel you are in a hurry or would rather be somewhere else. 18 Therefore, when you are speaking to your workmates, try not to look at the clock very often.Bad body postureHaving a bad posture such as dropped shoulders or a lower neck can mean that you are not interested in what is going on around you. 19 Also, keep your head high.Weak handshakeA weak handshake means that you don′t care much about the person you are shaking hands with. Try to greet the people with a firm (有力的) handshake. However, don′t forget that a handshake that is too firm can be impolite. 20A.Therefore, try to find the right balance.B.Nod your head to show that you are listening.C.It looks like you are not interested in being there.D.This shows that you have confidence in yourself.E.This is generally considered as a position of defence.F.It is important to stand or sit up straight when speaking to somebody.G.It also shows that you are not confident or show no interest in the topic.二、完形填空Waiting for the airplane to take off, I was happy to get a seat by myself. Just then, an air hostess came to me and asked, “Would you mind 21 your seat? A couple would like to sit together.” The only 22 seat was next to a girl with her arms in casts (石膏绷带), a black-and-blue face, and a sad expression. “ 23 am I going to sit there.” I thought immediately.But a soft voice spoke, “She needs help.” Finally, I 24 to move to that seat.

2023-2024学年陕西省西安市莲湖区西安市第一中学高一上学期10月月考英语试题
2023-2024学年陕西省西安市莲湖区西安市第一中学高一上学期10月月考英语试题Starting this fall, primary and middle school students in China will have at least one weekly course on labor education, according to a new curriculum standard released by the Ministry of Education (MOE).Labor education ranges from household chores to on-campus labor and community, volunteer services, generally 3 types according to the new standards: the first refers to everyday chores, including cleaning, organizing, cooking, and using and maintaining home appliances (家电); next is productive labor, including agriculture, making traditional handicrafts(手工艺品), and applying new technologies such as 3D printing; The third type is service work including volunteer work. The new curriculum also calls for a week of extracurricular and off-campus activities designed for labor education once every school year.A recent study showed that primary and middle school students in China only spend an average of12 minutes a day on chores, compared to 72 minutes in the US, 42 minutes in South Korea and 30 minutes in France. Many countries start students’ labor education at a young age. Finland begins to develop students’ life skill in primary school. Spinning, woodworking, cooking and other craftsmanship classes are offered. In Germany, pupils have two labor classes per week. Electronics, office technology, sewing, housekeeping, and career guidance are all laught there.Adding labor education was out of concern that the country’s youngsters do too little housework and look down on physical labor jobs. Due to great academic pressure, schools tend to put their academic curricula on the top, and parents sometimes see household chores as distractions. But, according to the MOE, labor education must be strengthened to help students develop social values, an interest in-labor and finally an all-around development.1. Which of the following belongs to productive labour?A.Maintaining home appliances. B.Doing some cooking.C.Selling traditional handicrafts. D.Planting crops.2. What is the fact about about education in Finland?A.It is considered more important than academic learning.,B.The country starts labour education in primary school.C.There are only a couple of labor education courses.D.Students have two labour classes every month.3. Why does the MOE demand labour education should be strengthened according to the last paragraph?A.It can help with their development of social values.B.It can improve students’ performance on learning.C.It can help exercise their special talent.D.It can enrich students’ off-campus life.Many studies have shown the learning-by-teaching effect. Students who spend time teaching what they’ve learned show better understanding and ability to remember knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying. But why does teaching help?Researchers did a study to test their idea that teaching improves the teacher’s learning because it forces the teacher to find back what they’ve learned. They asked 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text with numbers on a topic which is completely new to them. They told the students they could take notes while studying, but would teach the material afterwards without notes. After studying the text, the students were divided into four groups. In one group the students spent five minutes giving a lesson on the study material without notes. The other groups either spent the same time completing arithmetic (算术) problems, teaching with a script (讲稿) or writing down all they could remember from the text—a form of recalling practice. A week later, all the students took a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text.The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the recalling-practice group performed better than the group that completed arithmetic problems and the group that taught with a script.The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by recalling practice; that is, the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teaching includes recalling the taught materials.The new findings have a practical suggestion for how the learning-by-teaching method is used in education. In order to make sure that students learn and remember an educational material, they should internalize (内化) the material before presenting it to others, rather than depend on notes during the presentation process.4. Why does the author give a question in Paragraph 1?A.To look for readers’ answer.B.To introduce the topic.C.To keep a sense of mystery. D.To show off his knowledge.5. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A.Why the study started. B.How the study was done.C.How many people joined in the study. D.What conclusion the researchers made. 6. What should be stressed in school education according to the author?A.Previewing-by-teaching. B.Note-taking.C.Learning-by-teaching. D.Mind-mapping.7. Where is the text probably from?A.A history textbook. B.A newspaper.C.A guideline. D.A detective novel.Current Culture: Is Common Culture Alive?The digitizing(数字化) and globalizing world is changing the working of culture.As some see it,cities and nations are losing their common culture and their general spirit: people can no longer count on those around them valuing any of the same music or films.Others argue that a common culture is not dying so much as changing forms: it is less and less attached to a particular area and ever more linked to global networks.The facts lead to the change that anyone can become a cultural producer today,that the culture is increasingly available everywhere you want it, and whenever you want it, not just in the two months after the movie or book came out.Cultural possibilities have multiplied(倍增) as a result, but the change also means fewer cultural moments. It is easy to find the change in terms of loss of diversity of society. So what will it mean if globalization turns us into one wide world culture?For the enthusiasts(热衷者) of these changes, culture is not about popular artists or books,but centers on platforms like Google and Wikipedia, where every variety of culture brings about the exchange of knowledge and ideas, and makes connections across boundaries(边界).It is perhaps debatable whether two people who have participated in such websites, but in totally different corners of them,have had a cultural experience in common. In fact, these platforms become very successful with a large crowd of people, who build things together, share information, and forward articles back and forth.There are still more questions.What does it mean for the future of countries that culture now goes beyond the limits of the nation? Is there anything to defend and preserve(维护) in the passing cultural world, or is that merely to favor pen over printing press, horse over automobile(汽车)?Up to now a growing quantity of culture has been globally spreading and developing.More individuals than ever have the chances to be makers of culture,even if that means more to choose from and fewer standards to be reached in common.What it means is this strange feeling: that of being more connected than ever,with one-click(点击)access to so much of the cultural harvest around the world, and yet, of being starved for having similar interests and opinions withothers,concerned only with ourselves.8. In Paragraph 1 the author indicatesA.the missing of common culture B.the cultural diversity among peopleC.the disadvantage in the digitizing society D.the double standard of culturalevaluation9. It can be inferred from Paragraph-3 thatA.people feel satisfied with the current cultureB.enthusiasts look for current culture from famous artistsC.disappearance of common culture is a problem to be solvedD.common culture may exit into websites that connect the world10. What is the author's attitude towards current culture?A.Uninterested. B.favorable. C.Uncertain. D.Critical.We all know that studying is boring. Every time you have to read a textbook or review for a test, you may start thinking of a million things you’d rather be doing like watching TV. 11Let’s go throug h them, shall we?Get interested in the topic. To be able to dive into different aspects of any topic, you can’t jump straight into the details. 12 That’s why we should teach children how to build something in a video game before encouraging them to read through History and Theory of Architecture.Change your environment. Having an environment that’s helpful to focus can make you enjoy your work. One tip is to add in things that you enjoy. For example, I have carefully selected some music that can help me focus. Another thing you can try is to go to your favorite coffee shop or your own secret spot in the library when you need to study. 13Get a study partner. Studying with a partner is great for making the act of studying less boring. 14 You might distract(分散注意) each other. For example, I tried to study with my roommate, but we usually ended up playing online games. Besides, if you have some super-smart study partners, they will do all the homework and then you won’t learn anything.15 Your desire to do a task partly depends on the reward you’ll get for finishing it. Your pre-planned rewards can encourage you to work harder because you know you’ll get something fun after completing it.One of the biggest complaints in modern society is being over-scheduled. Ask people how they are and the answer usually i s “super busy,” “crazy busy” . _______ is just “fine” any more.When people aren’t super busy at _______, they are crazy busy exercising, entertaining or parenting. And if there is ever a still moment for thoughts—for example, while waiting _______ at the supermarket or sitting in traffic—out come the mobile phones. So it’s worth noting a study published last month in Science, which shows how _______ people will go to avoid the examination for our thoughts.“We had noted that we are so dependent on our mobi le phones that people seem to find any _______ they can to keep busy,” said Timothy Wilson, a psychology professor at the University of Virginia.In his experiments involving 700 people, the majority found it _______ to be alone with their thoughts for just 6 to 15 minutes.It could be because human beings, as problem solvers and meaning makers, when _______, tend to think about what’s wrong in their lives. When we aren’t _______ our Facebook page, the things we haven’t figured out appear in our minds—_______ relationships, professional failures, health concerns, etc. Unless there is a solution, these thoughts just ________ themselves in our heads.But you can’t solve problems ________ you don’t allow yourself time to think about them. It has actually been ________ by our culture, which values doing more than thinking and believes answers are in your hand ________ in your head. “We all fell that busyness is ________ but it’s really harmful,” said Timothy. “There’s a widespread belief that thinking will only s low you down and get ________, but it’s the opposite.” ________ negative feelings only makes them more powerful, he said. Allowing and ________ the flow of thoughts is part of the solution itself, such asmeditation(冥想).Negative feelings are sometimes har d, but they are part of everyone’s life, ________ if you are busy. It is those deep and troubling feelings, and how you ________ them, that make you who you are. While busyness may seem to prevent the flow of sadness, it may also limit your ability to be filled with ________.16.A.Nobody B.Somebody C.Everybody D.Anybody17.A.home B.work C.school D.hospital18.A.in order B.in line C.in panic D.in public19.A.far B.long C.often D.much20.A.place B.reason C.excuse D.solution21.A.uncertain B.unfair C.unpleasant D.unwise22.A.left out B.left off C.left behind D.left alone23.A.deleting B.uploading C.updating D.downloading 24.A.close B.healthy C.difficult D.harmonious25.A.recover B.repeat C.regain D.recycle26.A.unless B.while C.though D.if27.A.ignored B.invited C.invented D.interrupted28.A.apart from B.more than C.except for D.rather than29.A.normal B.necessary C.regular D.ordinary30.A.all the way B.by the way C.in your way D.on your way 31.A.Holding on B.Holding out C.Holding back D.Holding up32.A.banning B.tolerating C.removing D.reducing33.A.especially B.hopefully C.similarly D.specially34.A.meet with B.get away with C.keep pace with D.deal with35.A.joy B.relief C.anxiety D.sorrow阅读下面短文,在空白处填人1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

AMany Years ago three soldiers, hungry and tired of battle, came upon a small village. The villagers,suffering a bad harvest and the many years of war,quickly hidwhat little they had to eat and met the three in the village square, shaking their heads and sighing,"Well,we are starving."The soldiers communicated with each other quietly and then the first soldier turned to the villagers.“Your poor fields have left you nothing to share,so we will share what little we have: the secret of making soup from stones.”Naturally the villagers were intrigued and soon a fire was built to the village's greatest pot,and then the soldiers dropped in three smooth stones.“Now this will be a fine soup,”said the second soldier,"but a handful of salt and some parsley(香芹)would make it wonderful!"Up jumped a villager,crying “What a piece of luck!I've just remembered where some has been left!”And off she ran,returning with parsley.As the pot was boiling,the memory of the villagers improved: soon carrots,beef and cream had found their way into the great pot.They ate and danced and sang well into the night, thrilled about the feast and their new-found friends.In the morning the three soldiers awoke,finding all the villagers standing before them.At their feet lay a bag of the village's best bread and cheese.“You have given us the greatest gift,”said an elder,“and we shall never forget.”The third soldier turned to the crowd,and said,“There is no secret,but this is certain: people working together can accomplish great things.”At last the light dawned on villagers.Off the soldiers wandered,down the road.21.The villagers hid food at first mainly because______.A. they didn't want to share their little foodB. they had a poor harvest that yearC. they had nothing to eat at allD. they were sick of soldiers22.What does the underlined word “intrigued”probably mean?A.

The passage is mainly written for ______.A.travelers to Malta B.teachers planning to work abroadC.host families wishing for students D.teenagers learning EnglishCThere have been times in my life when I felt satisfied. Sometimes it was because I achieved a goal I had set. Sometimes it was because I overcame a fear or passed a test. However,every time I feel that way, I learn again that full isn't full.When I was a little boy, I felt that the love I had for my mom and dad,and the love they had for me, just filled me up. Surely in a house full of nine people lived a young boy who loved and was loved as fully as a person could stand. Imagine my surprise as I then extended(扩大影响)that love to my grandparents, my uncle & aunt, cousins,etc. As I grew older, I met and married a beautiful woman that I thought entirely filled me up with love. I could not imagine there would be any more room. Then a few short years later we added one daughter and then another daughter to our family. Again, Ihad room to love and be loved. See what I mean? Every time I feel that life and love are as good as they can get, they get better.There is a lesson here for us. We ought to always have a heart that is open to expanding. To do more, love more, live more, learn more, overcome more, forgive more and the list could go on. Each of us knows 100 stories about men and women who have proved the impossible to be possible. Every day we stand at the crossroad and must decide if we are going to be a better person today than we were yesterday.You are not full yet. Young or old, there is still room for more.29.What does the underlined sentence mean?A.I can do it in a better way.B. These difficulties are really too hard.C.Something disappointing always happens.D. There always seems to be a little more room.30.According to Para.2,what did the author mistakenly believe at first?A.His room was not big enough.B.He would only have one child.C.Caring for families was not his strength.D.Getting married would be his final happiness.31.This text is most probably taken from a________.A. TV guideB. news reportC. life magazineD. job advertisementDUsing too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply inless obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less usable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(缺乏). Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs .Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too. In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but there’s a lot we can do to lower the number.You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher only when it is full. Help your parents fix any leaks(滴水) in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries(电池) instead of throwing them away.32. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?A. Using river water.B. Throwing batteries away.C. Paving parking lots.D. Throwing rubbish into lakes.33. What can be inferred from the text?A. All water shortages are due to human behavior.B. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.C. There is much we can do to reduce family size.D. The average family in America makes proper use of water.34. The last paragraph is intended to (旨在)________________.A. show us how to fix leaks at homeB. tell us how to run a dishwasherC. prove what drinking glass is best for usD. suggest what we do to save water at home35. The text is mainly about _________________.A. how human activity affects our water supplyB. how much we depend on water to liveC. why droughts occur more in dry climatesD. why paving roads reduces our water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。
