When will the stadium open?A. At 6:10 p.m.B. At 8:30 p.m.C. At 5:00 p.m.D. At 8:10 a.m.2. Which transport means can you take for free?A. Rail buses.B. Trains.C. Shuttles.D. Queensland Rail.3. Who is this passage written for?A. Businessmen.B. Audiences.C. Passengers.D. Tourists.BIn Shakespeare’s HAMLET, Polonius asks the prince, “What are you reading, my Lord?” Hamlet replies, “Words, words, words.” Either, as is likely, Hamlet wasn’t interested in what he was reading, or, less likely, he didn’t understand the words he was reading. In this case, Polonius should have lent Hamlet a good dictionary.Dictionaries are essential tools for people who like to read. There are so many words in English that even the most educated person will sometimes meet an unfamiliar word and have to look it up. Languages keep changing, too, with new words constantly being added and new meanings being applied to old words. For example, the 12th edition of Xinhua Dictionary, the most popular dictionary in China, has added new words such as “chu xin” “fen si” “er wei ma” etc. As for new meanings, “girl” once meant “a small child of either sex”. And “naughty” didn’t mean youwere “enjoying playing tricks”; it meant you were poor.A printed dictionary can’t keep pace with all the changes, which is why most dictionaries have websites and apps to help you keep up-to-date. However, I still prefer printed dictionaries because they give you more definitions and more examples of how a word is used. Even a simple word, such as “set”, has 430 meanings (the most of English words) but an online dictionary would only offer two or three. A printed dictionary also gives you the opportunity to discover new words as you run your finger down the page looking for the word you want.There is no “official” English dictionary, but the Oxford English Dictionary is considered to be the best. For English language learners, however, I would recommend the Collins COBUILD Dictionary for Advanced Learners. Hamlet, by the way, was Danish and a college student. He would have appreciated the Collins Dictionary to help himself with his words, words, words. This dictionary has over 40,000 words and gives you full-sentence definitions with good examples of how words are used.4. What’s the function of paragraph 1?A. To introduce the topic.B. To let the readers know more about HAMLET.C. To arouse readers’ interest in Shakespeare.D. To explain when it’s necessary to use a dictionary.5. Why does the author mention “girl” in paragraph 2?A. To show how powerful Xinhua Dictionary is.B. To support the idea: languages keep changing.C. To prove new words are being added to dictionaries.D. To imply “girl” also means “boy” in some cases.6. What’s the author’s attitude to printed dictionaries?A. Favorable.B. Ambiguous.C. Negative.D. Critical.7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph?A. To introduce the history of dictionaries.B. To call on learners to use dictionaries.C. To recommend Collins Dictionary.D. To explain why Hamlet likes Collins.CThere’s been a frightening increase in the number of people feeling lonely, brought on or made worse by COVID-19. In fact there’s been an epidemic (流行病) of loneliness.Loneliness is awful and dangerous. For one thing it weakens self-control and that, University of Bristol researchers have found, makes quitting smoking very difficult. Moreover, data from hundreds of thousands of people led Dr. Robyn Wootton, senior research associate at Bristol University and colleagues to conclude that loneliness appears to increase the need to smoke.According to the Office for National Statistics, the equivalent of 7.4 million people said their wellbeing was affected through feeling lonely in the first month of lockdown. Lonely people were also more likely to be struggling to find things that would help them cope and were also less likely to feel they had support networks to fall back on.Dr. Robyn Wootton said, “We found evidence to suggest that loneliness leads to increased smoking, with people more likely to start smoking, to smoke more cigarettes and to be less likely to quit.” Senior author Dr. Jorien Treur from Amsterdam UMC added, “Our finding that smoking may also lead to more loneliness is tentative (不确定的), but it is in line with other recent studies that identified smoking as a risk factor for poor mental health. A potential explanation for this relationship is that nicotine from cigarette smoke has a great impact on neurotransmitters (神经传导物质) such as dopamine (多巴胺) in the brain.”Dr. Wootton said with millions of people now being more socially separated, incidences of loneliness will climb. “We were really interested to find that loneliness decreases the likelihood of stopping smoking and we think this is a really important consideration for those trying to stop smoking during COVID-19,” she said. To ease your loneliness and improve your chances of succeeding in quitting, I think one of the best things you can do is to find a “buddy” who’ll try to give up smoking with you. Together you can compare notes, share progress, talk through difficulties, and encourage each other to keep on going when all you want is to give in.8. What can we infer from paragraph 3?A. Lonely people tend to seek something to deal with loneliness.B. Lockdown do more damage to physical than mental health.C. People suffering from loneliness often turn to others for help.D. Self-control is the most important thing to overcome loneliness.9. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to?A. Evidence.B. Smoking.C. Loneliness.D. Finding.10. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Millions of people failed the attempt to stop smoking.B. A good way to stop smoking is to get a like-minded person.C. Smoking is not advocated officially during COVID-19.D. Those who want to quit smoking need to find good habits.11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A. Health Problems Caused by COVID-19B. Opinions on How to Give Up SmokingC. Some Ways in Which Loneliness Harm YouD. Loneliness Makes it Hard to Quit SmokingDWe may be wishing some memories could last a lifetime, but a large quantity of physical and emotional factors can have a negative impact on our ability to keep the information throughout our whole life. A new study which had been published in the journal Psychological Science found that people who feel enthusiastic and cheerful — what psychologists call “positive effect” — are less likely to experience memory decline as they get older. This result adds to a growing body of research on the role of positive effect on healthy aging.A team of researchers analyzed data from about 991 middle-aged and elderly U.S. adults who participated in a national study conducted in three periods: between 1995 and 1996, 2004 and 2006, and 2013 and 2014. In each assessment, participants reported on a wide range of positive emotions they had experienced during the past 30 days. In the final two assessments, participants also completed tests of memory performance. These tests consisted of recalling words immediately after their presentation and again 15 minutes later.The researchers examined the association between positive effect and memory decline, which accounts for age, gender, education, depression, and negative effect.“Our findings have clearly showed that memory declined with people becoming older,” saidClaudia Haase, an associate professor at Northwestern University and senior author on the paper. “However, individuals with higher levels of positive effect had a less steep memory decline over the course of almost a decade,” added Emily Hittner, a PhD graduate of Northwestern University and the paper’s lead author. Areas of future research might address the pathways that could connect positive effect and memory, such as physical health or social relationships.12. What can we infer from paragraph 1?A. Our memory can last for a lifetime.B. Enthusiasm can make people healthier.C. Positive people can have a much better memory.D. Physical and emotional factors can better memory.13. Who might have participated in the study?A. Old people.B. Young teenagers.C. Small kids.D. Lovely babies.14. What will the scientists research in the future?A. How to make people live healthily and long.B. Association between being positive and memory.C. How to make people have a good physical and mental health.D. Connection between physical health and mental health.15. Where is this text most likely from?A. A report.B. A guidebook.C. A brochure.D. A magazine.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。

By this, they mean that with improved communications and trade, each country is becoming more and morefamiliar with one another. There seems to be a lot of truth to this. After all, you can buy African food in Norway, or watch a French movie in China.But in spite of this, countries still have the power to shock people who visit them for the first time. For many of us, there are still real differences in the culture and habits between nations.Recently, the Daily Mail reported on some culture shocks from around the world.A Serbian student, Milorad Boti, was highly surprised on a school trip to Germany when he found that public bathrooms were very different to those in his home country. He noticed that after using the toilet, the lid(盖子)rotated(旋转)as part of a cleaning process. Milorad was impressed. “That was the best thing that happened on that school trip,〞 he said.Most often, however, it’s eating habits that are different betwee n cultures. The Daily Mail article mentioned the shock of an Indian man, Kaushal Braot. When visiting a Western country, he notice people socializing in restaurants, often spending hours in them with friends. Kaushal was surprised because in India, restaurants are for one thing only: eating.The cultural differences people noticew can seem positive, negative, or simply jst strange. But rather than something to be feared, these differences should be welcomed. Indeed, if the whole world were like one big country, it would be a much duller place. So let’s be proud of our own culture, and at the same time, open to the cultures of others.24.The world is getting smaller because of ___________.A.African food in Norway B.French movies in ChinaC.improved communications and trade D.differences in culture25.In a western country’s restaurant, you can do the following things EXCEPT _____________.A.having a dinner with your friends B.playing basketball with your friends C.chatting with your friends D.sharing a book with your friends 26.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.The world will become one big country.B.Cultural differences make people feared.C.Chinese culture is the best one in the world.D.We should love our own culture and respect others’.27.Milor ad Boti’s and Kaushal Barot’s stories are mentioned to ________. A.support the writer’s opinion B.make the article interesting C.make the article logical D.introduce the topicCWhen it comes to Chinese students considering studying in foreign countries, many of them usually believe that life will be easy and enjoyable. Unfortunately, it’s likely that students with those beliefs will be disappointed very soon after landing at the airport. So, what are the problems you may have, and how can you deal with them?Teaching and learning styles in America are very different from those in China, requiring more critical(批判的)thinking and cooperation. In a normal Americanclassroom, one project might be done by a study group in which every person has their own responsibility.Besides coursework, another important problem faced by overseas students is homesickness or loneliness. You may miss your parents’ cooking, your pets, or even your old bed. Being away from home can create bitter feelings, especially when face with the challenges of getting used to an unfamiliar environment.What I strongly recommend is to try hard to deal with these feelings. Be open to new friendships, although they can’t replace the family and friends you miss from home. Sign up for campus societies, and try to enjoy life on campus, even if you miss home a lot. Be organized and keep a diary to check your progress. Write down three new things that you’re grateful for every evening, as well as three things you’re looking forward to every morning.Studying abroad is never simple. In fact, there will be many obstacles daily. But hopefully, students who are studying abroad, or who are planning to, will overcome their difficulties and make their time overseas a success.28.When you study abroad, you will ____________.A.get used to learning easily B.miss your family and friends C.have nothing to do but study D.deal with learning projects by yourself 29.You should make new friends and sign up for campus societies when you __________.

D.Tasks.31.What is the passage mainly about?A.Chinese students’ bitter〔痛苦的〕 life in foreign countries.B.The disadvantages of studying in foreign countries.C.The ways to get used to new environment.D.Overseas students’ challenges and the ways to overcome them.DOutstanding in the Field, an organization that holds dinners on farms and other currently popular locations(地方), is traveling across the U.S., Canada, France and Bermuda for its annual tour.Dinners on the farm have become popular in the last several years as the local food movement has grown. A dinner of local foods cooked by local chefs and eaten as close to the source as possible is an enjoyable way to spend an evening. Outstanding in the Field seems to have been ahead of fashion.

Maybe you even know what your birth weight was. Most newborns weigh between 6 and 9 pounds, but some may weigh more and some less. But very quickly, a baby gains weight and everyone is glad about that because it means the child is growing bigger and stronger.As you get older, your weight is still important. It's something your parents and doctor will probably keep an eye on. When you go for a checkup, the doctor often will record your height and weight and compare it with what it was the last time you came in. The doctor wants to check whether you have a healthy weight because weighing too much or too little can be a problem.But these days, being overweight is more common than being underweight. In the last 30 years, a growing number of kids and teenagers have developed weight problems. Today, 1 out of 3 kids and teens between the ages of 2 and 19 are overweight. Manygrown-ups understand what it's like to have weight problems, since 2 out of every 3 adults (成年人)are overweight. . wfsqzkss.For kids and adults, weighing too much can lead to illnesses and health problems. And a kid who is overweight might be made jokes on or find it hard to keep up withfriends on the playground. When people talk about being overweight, they mean that someone has more body fat than is healthy. Everyone has some body fat, but extra (多余的)fat can influence someone,s health and ability to walk, run, and get around, as well as how the person looks and his or her self-respect.32.Why is everyone happy hearing a baby become fatter?A.

One evening, after a long day of hard work, the farmer returned home with the donkeys and began to tie them to the stakes(桩). When he finished nine donkeys, he found that the tenth rope was gone.What now? He could not let the last donkey run around all night. It would surely run away. Suddenly, he saw that, under a tree, there was a monk(和尚). The farmer ran to the monk and asked for voice. The monk said, “The only thing you have to do to the tenth donkey is make the movements(动作) you would have made with a rope in your hands. Pretend (假装) to tie the donkey. That’s all.”The farmer returned to the tenth donkey, pretended to fasten(拴紧) a rope around its neck and then to tie the rope to a stake. He then entered his little house, half trusting the monk’s advice, half worried that his donk ey would run away in the middle of the night.When he went outside very early the next morning, all the donkeys were still standing nicely next to their stakes, even the tenth one. The farmer untied the donkeys and wanted to take them to the field. But to his surprise, donkey number ten refused to move an inch. The farmer pulled and shouted but the animal just didn’t move.Suddenly, the farmer thought of what he had done to the donkey the night before. With a great “ah ha”, he returned to donkey number ten,and just after a simple movement the donkey happily walked with him to the field.24. What was the farmer’s problem when he tied the donkey?A. He needed one more rope.B. The tenth stake was gone.C. The tenth donkey ran away.D. He had left a rope in the field.25. Following the monk’s advice, what did the farmer do?A.

The donkeys went to the field by themselves.27. What does the underlined part“ a simple movement”refer to?A. Taking away the tenth stake.B. Pretending to untie the donkey.C. Pretending to cut the tenth rope.D. Trying the tenth donkey with a real rope.CFirst Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. V olunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life, ” she says.Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters , visit the elderly and more.Some cities ---- including Seatle, Chicago, and Washingtong,D.C. ----require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. Thestudent volunteers learn new skills and help their communities .Many parents are in favor of the idea ---- they say volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say voluntee ring is only fun if it’s a choice.Read both sides of the debate and decide.YESV olunteering can help teens get into college or get a job.Many cities and towns need help. V olunteers can help keep important programs going.Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required.

In Italy, when you order a coffee in a cafe or bar(酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip(小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy -includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy, such as espresso or macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk), is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.32.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A.By time.B. By space.C. By comparisonD.By example.33.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?A. Espresso.B. Lungo.C. Cappuccino.D. Macchiato.34.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.C.Few Italians take short breaks from work for coffee.D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.35.What does the author think of Italian coffee?A.She loves its bitter taste.B.It is too expensive for her.C.The cup it is served in is too small.D.It is a good choice for breakfast.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。

I was scared standing at that bus stop, for I knew that after I set foot on that bus, my freedom would be gone for a long time. I neverhad friends at school because of my colored clothes I always wore. My parents always said that if you want tohave friends, you have to be a friend. I did that, but it didn’ t work.I sat in the cold air, my nose feeling more like a snowflake ( 雪花 ). Then, the bus slowly pulled up. Thedoor opened, and I saw many eyes staring at me. I walked to the back of the bus. As I passed the other kids,they would laugh. The bus trip seemed to take forever before we reached the school. When we arrived, Iwalked to my classroom and sat at the desk in the very back of the classroom. It was n’ t that I disliked school,but I wasn ’ t a big fan of the kids at school. I enjoyed listening to the teacher talk, but I didnbell rang for lunch. I hid in the crowd of kids, and walked to an empty table. I opened my lunch bag, andbegan to eat uncomfortably. A girl with long red hair came over to my table and sat down. I got scared, butshe had a friendly smile on her face.“ What’ s your name? ” she asked.“ Rachael, ” I whispered.“ I am Monica, ” she said. She kept talking to me, and I dtalketoher a little bit.“ No one likes me,” I said after a while of dead silence.“ I do, ” she replied.“ I learned that after a while of being lonely you have to be friends with people thatlook lonely too.

And because he couldn ’ t stand losing, he had become an expert in a kinds of tricks. He could play tricks in every situation without being noticed, even in video games or playing alone. He could win without ever being caught.He won so many times that everyone saw him as the champion. It meant that almost no one wanted toplay with him. One person who did play with him was a poor boy. He was a bit younger. The champion reallyenjoyed himself by making the boy look foolish.But the champion ended up getting bored. He needed something more, so he decided to apply for thenational video games championship, where he would find some competitors worthy of himself. At the championship he was eager to show his skills, but when he tried using all those tricks he knew from a thousanddifferent games, none of them worked. The judges had prevented (阻拦 ) any of the tricks from working.He felt embarrassed: he was a good player, but without his tricks, he couldn’ t beat a single co Finally, the judges announced the name of the champion.

According to a recent study, the more you struggle (努力 ) while you are learning newinformation, the better you can remember it later.It might surprise you. When teachers are presenting new information, they often give students lots of help.But a new study shows this may not be the best way to support learning.“ Don’ t be too quick to get help w learning something new, ”education expert Manu Kapur said. “ Tryto work on it yourself even if it meanstrying different ways.”Kapur came up with the idea that struggling can lead to better learning. Then he tested it out on studentsin Singapore. He separated students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to solve mathproblems with the teacher’helps. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems byhelping one another instead of getting help from the teacher.With the teacher’ s help, students in the first group were able to find the correct answers. Students in thesecond group did not solve the problems correctly, but they did come up with a lot of good ideas.The students were then tested on what they had learned. The group without any help from a teacher scoredmuch higher than the group who had help. Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understandthe process (过程 ), not just the solution.Kapur ’advices for kids is to put a lot of effort into learning something new rather than going to yourteacher for help.“ Simply doing a little work or nothing at all won’ t work,” says Kapur.“ T be a real attempt to figure out ( 想出 ) or solve a problem in as many ways as possible.”12.Which of the following is the best way to learn according to the passage?A.Figure something out on your own.B.Ask teachers for help in time.C.Be given the solution to the problem.D.Pay little attention to the process.13.Kapur supported his idea by.A. showing causesB. describing an activityC. making a testD. introducing a method14.In the last paragraph, Kapur advised students to.A. make efforts to win help from othersB. use their head in an active wayC. make an attempt at something newD. work out every difficult problem15.What would be the best title for the passage?A. Raise your headB. Try your handsC. Stand on your own feetD. Work your mind第二节 (共 5小题 ; 每题 2分 , 满分 10分 )依照短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Without such problems, animals in zoos should live to a ripe old age. But that may not be true for the largest land animals on earth. Scientists have known that elephants in zoos often suffer from poor health. They develop diseases, joint problems and behavior changes. Sometimes, they even become infertile.To learn more about how captivity affects elephants, a team of international scientists compared the life spans of female elephants born in zoos with those living outdoors in their native habitats. Zoos keep detailed records of all the animals in their care, documenting factors such as birth dates, illnesses, weight and death. These records made it possible for the researchers to analyze 40 years of data on 800 African and Asian elephants in zoos across Europe, North America and Asia.The scientists found that female elephants born in zoos lived an average of 16.9years. Their wild counterparts who died of natural causes lived an average of 56 years - more than three times as long.Scientists don't yet know why wild elephants seem to fare so much better than their zoo - raised counterparts. Georgia Mason, a biologist at the University of Guelph in Canada who led the study, thinks that stress and obesity may be to blame. Zoo elephants don't get the same kind of exercise they would in the wild, and most are fed a diet of corn instead of their natural vegetation.Another finding from the study showed that Asian elephants born in zoos were more likely to die early than African elephants born in zoos. Mason suggests that different species may react differently to the stress of captivity.1. What does the underlined word "ripe" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Smooth.B. Mature.C. Disease - free.D. Early.2. What do the scientists find in their study?A. Female elephants live longer than male elephants.B. Zoo - raised elephants live as long as their wild counterparts.C. Female elephants born in zoos have a shorter life span.D. Elephants are less healthy in zoos due to lack of exercise.3. What are the possible reasons for the zoo - raised elephants' poor healthaccording to Mason?A. Stress and obesity.B. Eating too much corn.C. Lack of exercise and different species.D. All of the above.4. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Elephants in ZoosB. Health of Zoo - raised ElephantsC. Comparison between Zoo - raised and Wild ElephantsD. Longer Life for Wild ElephantsIf you are a high school student, you may be under a lot of stress. Here are some tips to help you manage your stress.First, make a schedule. A schedule can help you organize your time and tasks. Write down all the things you need to do, such as homework, studying for tests, and extracurricular activities. Then, prioritize your tasks.

It can also improve your mood and energy levels. You can choose the type of exercise that you like, such as running, swimming, or dancing.

Take a 10 - 15 minute break every hour or so. During your break, you can do something relaxing, such as listening to music, reading a book, or talking to a friend.Finally, talk to someone.

They give each other red envelopes with money inside as a gift, which is called "hongbao" in Chinese.

高一上学期英语期中考试试卷一、阅读理解1. 阅读理解In the home country, a common language gives you the abilityto communicate easily with the people around you; and you learn something aboutyour country’s history, people’s habits, likes and dislikes, customs andtraditions.
