This is not the cinema.”“Oh, it began twenty minutes ago? ” said the man. “I’m sorry about that. Well, goodbye.”Mrs. Turner was very surprised, so she told her husband. He laughed and said, “No, that wasn’t a mistake. The man’s wife wanted to go to the cinema, but he was feeling tired, so he telephoned the cinema. His wife heard him, but she didn’t hear you.

On the third Sunday in June, fathers all across the United States are given presents, treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special.However, the idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Day sermon in 1909. Having been raised by her father, Henry Jackson Smart, after her mother died, Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her. It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a selfless and loving man. Sonora’s father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father’s Day celebration in Spikane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge declared the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day. Roses are the Father’s Day flowers: red to be worn for a living father and white if the father has died.When children can’t visit their fathers or take them out to dinner, they send a greeting card. Traditionally, fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental. Most greeting cards are too special so fathers laugh when they openthem. Some give heartfelt thanks for being there whenever the child needed Dad. 8.At first, Father’s Day was fixed on June 19th because ______.A. Sonora honored her father on her father’s birthdayB. Sonora’s birthday was June 19C. it was decided by the president at that timeD. her mother died on June 199.How many years has passed before Father’s Day became an official day since the father’s day was celebrated?A. 4B. 10C. 14D. 2410.According to the passage, on Father’s Day, ______.A. people will wear the same flowers to honor their fathersB. only daughters wear red flowers to honor their fathersC. children must go home to honor their fathersD. fathers are often honored in different ways11.According to the passage, we can infer that Henry Jackson Smart ______.A. was very kind to anyoneB. did a lot for his daughterC. was the first father honored in 1924D. always helped others by giving moneyWe do not know when man first began to use salt, but we do know that it has been used in many different ways throughout history. Historical evidence shows, for example, that people who lived over 3,000 years ago ate salted fish. Thousands of years ago in Egypt, salt was used to preserve (保存) the dead.Stealing salt was considered a major crime (罪行) during some periods of history. In the eighteenth century, for example, if a person was caught stealing salt, he could be put in prison and his ears could be cut off.In the Roman Empire, one of the most important roads was the one that carried salt from the salt mines to Rome. Guards were stationed(安置) along the route to protect against salt thieves, and they received their pay in salt, thus bringing the English word, salary. Any guard who fell asleep while on duty was thought to be “not worth his salt”, and as a result he would get a little less salt on his next payday. The expression, “not worth his salt”, is still used today in English.In the modern world salt has many uses beyond the dining table. It is used in making glass and airplane parts, in the growing of crops, and in the killing of weeds (杂草). It is also used to make water soft, to melt (融化) ice on roads and highways, to make soap, and to fix colors in cloth.Salt can be got in various ways besides being taken from mines underground. Salt water from the ocean, salt water lakes or small seas can be used to make salt. Yet, no matter where it comes from, salt will continue to play an important role in the lives of people everywhere.12.According to the text, salt can be used in the following EXCEPT _____.A. keeping dead bodiesB. punishing thievesC. protecting cropsD. making industrial products13.In the Roman Empire many people were employed as guards to _____.A. protect the city of RomeB. watch people carrying saltC. prevent thieves from stealing saltD. carry salt from the mines to Rome14.The expression “not worth his salt” used today refers to the one who _____.A. fails to do his work wellB. should not be paid in saltC. doesn’t want to work at allD. should use less salt15.The main purpose of the text is to tell readers _____.A. how salt was found and gotB. salt is important in people’s lifeC. salt was difficult to get in the pastD. what salt brings to the English language完形填空阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上涂黑。

We had what they’re calling a “weather event” here, and it poured about 14 inches of rain in a day, causing by far the worst flash flooding I’ve seen in the 13 years in the place where we’ve lived. The kids and I ended up being trapped in our car in rapidly rising flood waters. The engine had stopped and couldn’t start again; the kids were terrified and I didn’t know what to do. Then a man in a 4WD pulled up beside us and offered to pull us out of the water.When he got us to higher ground he asked where our home was. We lived about 2km down the road, so he pulled us all the way back to our street before going off to look for more people in trouble.I don’t know this man and I ‘ll probably never see him again, but the kids and I owe him a huge debt of gratefulness that we’ll never be able to repay. Five local people died in this “weather event”, just a few streets away from here, so I’m in no doubt as to how dangerous our situation was. Going through what we went through has only reinforced(强化) the fact that we should always be ready and willing to help someone in need to stay safe and be well, whatever the situations are.21.What can we learn about the “weather event”?A. It was the biggest flood ever in this area.B. It rained for several days.C. Several people lost their lives in the event.D. Nobody was hurt in the event.22.Which statement is NOT TRUE about the man?A. He drove a car of great power.B. He left as soon as he pulled the author’s car out.C. He was willing to help those in trouble.D. He was a brave and selfless person.23. What is the author probably going to do after going through such a “weather event”?A. Be ready to give hands to others.B. Buy a car with a more powerful engine.C. Try hard to search for the man.D. Pay some money for the man’s help.24.Which one is the best title for the passage?A. A Weather EventB. The Kindness of a StrangerC. A Car Accident in FloodD. An Awful DayBDo two kids make a perfect family? Share your views about this issue on our website.LucinaWhen you decide to have another child , you should plan your budget(预算)in advance. If you or your parents can’t take care of your body, you have to at least spend an extra 5000 yuan per month to hire a body sitter. If you want to send your kids to study abroad, you have to save another 1 million yuan. I think most young Chinese couples cannot afford the expense.BcnuTwo is more than twice the work, there’s no guaranteeing(确保)they’ll share interests; they could very well fight or want to head off in completely different directions. If you find you love the second one more than the first, I don’t see how that could possibly make life simple, as children are very sensitive to that sort of thing. My advice is to take care of yourself and take time for your love for the first child to relax and grow before even thinking about having a second child.StevenI always thought having two kids sounded perfect. But when my daughter was born with life-threatening health problems I knew she would be my only kid. Raising our daughter was going to take a lot of emotional, physical, an d financial resources. If I had any more children, I don’t think I could handle it.WilliamUnder the one-child policy carried out in China for three decades, many kids are spoilt by their parents. The “little emperors” have no idea of sharing and giv ing and many of them even become self-centered. If we have another child, the first one will learn something about responsibility, sharing and caring for others.25.What can we learn from the passage?A.Few families are ready for a second child in China.B.It takes a lot of money to raise a second child.C.Steven has never considered having a second child.D.Many kids become selfish because of the one-child policy26.Of all the four persons, who is most likely to have a second child?A.LucinaB. BcnuC. StevenD. William27.What does the underlined part “that sort of thing” most probably refer to ?A.T he two kids have different interests.B.I t makes life hard to have two kids.C.P arents can’t treat the two kids equally.D.T he two kids fight with each other.28.Which of the following statements about the four persons is true?A.L ucina plants to send her kids to study abroad.B.B cnu thinks having a second child means more trouble.C.S teven suffers from health problems.D.W illiam has a selfish child.CYou know how much your telephone has changed over the past 10 years? Your car will change even more than that in the next 10 years.One of the big changes is that cars will drive themselves. Some day you may not need to drive a car. You will just tell the car where you want to go and it will drive itself.“We definitely have the technology for it now,” says Andrew Poliak of automotive technology supplier QNX. “We expect self-driving cars to be a mainstream thing between 2020 and 2025.”The American company Google has been working on a self-driving automobile for years. These cars are already on the roads in the United States, mainly in California. Google cars are truly self-driving. These cars haveno steering wheels(方向盘)or pedals(踏板)Last week, police ordered one of Google’s cars to stop for driving too slowly on a public road. The car was not breaking any law, so no one was punished. But police did speak with the operators of the vehicle.According to Google, its self-driving cars have been driven nearly 2 million kilometers. That is equal to the distance the average person drives in 90 years.So far, no Google self-driving car has gotten a traffic ticket. Some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.29.Why was the Google’s car stopped by police?A.It ran too fastB. It looks the lawC.It drove too slowly.D. It had no driver.30.What can we learn from the passage?A.The car hasn’t changed a lot over the past 10 yea rs.B.Google has no self-driving car technology.C.Self-driving cars are widely used in the U.S.D.Google self-driving cars haven’t been fined so far.31.What distance can a person drive in year on average?A.About 22,000kmB.About 18,000kmC.About 45,000km.D.About 11,000km.DFor over a month, forest fires in Indonesia spread very quickly out of control as the country suffered its worst drought(干旱)in 50 years. Within days a cloud of some was hanging over neighbouring countries including Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.When the smoke combined with pollution from factories and cars, it soon became poisonous(有毒的). Dangerous amounts of CO became trapped under the smog and pollution levels rose. People coughed as they left the house and their eyes watered immediately.The smog made it impossible to see across streets and whole cities disappeared as grey soot(烟灰)covered everything. In some areas, tap water was used from high-rise city buildings to try and break up the smog.Finally, heavy rains, which came in November, put out the fires and cleared the air. But the environmentalcosts and health problems will remain. Breathing problems could well increase and many non-sufferers may have difficulties for the first time. Wildlife has suffered too. In low-land forests, elephants, deer, and tigers have been driven out of their homes by smog.But smog is not just an Asian problem. In fact, the word was first used in London in 1905 to describe the mixture of smoke and thick fog. Sometimes the smog was so thick and poisonous that people were killed by breathing problems or in accidents. About 4,000Londoners died within five days as a result of thick smog in 1952.32.When did the forest fires most probably happen?A. In JulyB. In OctoberC. In NovemberD. In December33.Which of the following is true about the forest fires?A.The fires spread to Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.B.The fires were put out by the firefighters and volunteers.C.Many animals were left homeless because of the smog.D.4,000people were killed by the forest fires.34. When can we learn from the passage?A.Smog can lead to drought problem.B.Smog can cause forest fires easily.C.Smog has little effect on wildlife.D.Smog is more than an Asian problem.35.What is the similarity between the Indonesia smog and the London smog?A.Both were caused by drought.B.Both caused many deaths.C.Both were poisonous.D.Both spread in several countries.三、七选五(共5小题;每小题2分。

2015-2016高一年级第一学期期末考试试卷—英语

2015-2016高一年级第一学期期末考试试卷—英语卷I第一部分听力(共两节,满分30分)略第二部分阅读理解(共两节, 满分30分)第一节(共10小题,每小题2分,满分20分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AHeading off to college this year?Here are some fashion tips from our experts you should keep in mind:Dress to impress:Stylist and business consultant Daniela Smith says,“Girls should keep in mind that your college professors will often be the bridge that connects you to your future career and your classmates will become your professional network.You don't need to dress like you're going to the office,but you should display an ability to properly present yourself with appropriate maturity and confidence,and look put­together.”Logo mania(品牌狂热症):Wearing the logos of brands aimed at younger customers physically identifies you as part of that age group,so consider the targeted age group of the stores you shop at.It's tempting to load up on logos,especially well­known logos that signify high­end brands.But consider this:college is a time of self­discovery,a chance to develop your own personal style.Instead of wearing logos head to toe,“walking advertisement”­style,why not express who you really are?Wear real pants:The combination of leggings and baggy shirts is all too common on college campuses.Smith points out that leggings,yoga pants,and sweatpants are entirely unacceptable in public unless you're exercising.Although leggings worn as pants are a common trend among high school and college girls,they are not an appropriate choice for daywear.As a young woman,your style choice should begin to reflect your maturity level.So,get rid of leggings and wear real pants!Keep the cute factor to a minimum:Stay away from sweaters and T­shirts with smiling animals,cartoon characters,or Hello Kitty on them.Sure,kittens might be cute,but they're not doing you any favors in the style department.Dressing too cutesy can take years off your look,and not necessarily in a good way!21.The second paragraph indicates the importance of ________.A.impressing professors B.getting on well with classmatesC.creating a professional imag D.dressing appropriately22.The author recommends wearing real pants because ________________.A.leggings and baggy shirts are too common B.yoga pants and sweatpants are not so comfortableC.real pants can present you with appropriate maturity D.people like real pants better than the other pants 23.What's the writer's attitude towards sweaters with animals on them?A.They make people look lovely. B.They are very fashionable these days.C.They will show you're an animal lover. D.They are not suitable for college­aged students.24.In which magazine would you most likely find this passage?A.Business Week. B.Parents.C.Style. D.Travel & Leisure.BA year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute<”someone might say, “are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?”The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to prepare, a period I spent searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class. I’m Mr. Davis.”Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the dayeventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.“All right then,”I said. “Okey, here we go.”Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk, overlooking a forests of hands. Every student would yell. “Calm down, you’ll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I inspected the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.25. The author took the job to teach writing because ______.A. he wanted to be expectedB. he had written some storiedC. he wanted to please his fatherD. he had dreamed of being a teacher26. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?A. He would be aggressive in his first class.B. He was well-prepared for his first class.C. He got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.D. He waited long for the arrival of his first class.27. The author chose the composition topic probably because ______.A. he got disappointed with his first classB. he had prepared the topic before classC. he wanted to calm down the studentsD. he thought it was an easy topicCGeorge Gershwin, born in 1898, was one of America’s greatest composers. He published his first song when he was eighteen years old. During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.Many of Gershwin’s songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s. Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way—from jazz to country.In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz, some people asked, be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.In 1928, Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study composition(作曲)with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger, but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there, Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed, critics(评论家)were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life, to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It still remains one of his most famous works.George Gershwin died in 1937, just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages. People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.28.What do we know about the concert organized by Whiteman?A.It attracted more people to theatres.B.It proved jazz could be serious music.C.It made Gershwin leader of the orchestra.D.It caused a debate among jazz musicians.29.What do we learn from the last paragraph?A.Many of Gershwin’s works were lost.B.The death of Gershwin was widely reported.C.A concert was held in memory of Gershwin.D.Brain cancer research started after Gershwin’s death.30.Which of the following best describes Gershwin?A.Talented and productive.B.Serious and boring.C.Popular and unhappy.D.Friendly and honest.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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

ASixteen, sweet sixteen! Sweet sixteen? What’s so sweet about this birthday? Perhaps because sixteen marks out coming of age, which is the middle period betweenchildhood and adulthood. It is a very brief and unique stage in our lives. A time when we are becoming an adult, yet still haven’t lost our childhood innocence. The best of both words.Actually Sweet Sixteen applies more often to girl’s 16th birthday than to boys. At that age, a girl is on the verge of becoming a woman. Picture a flower about to bloom, opening its face to the world for the first time. There’s a sense of beauty and sweetness to this change. Our 16th birthday is the first day we can get our driver’s license. It is the official step towards becoming an adult. From this day forward, we no longer need our parents to drive us around, take us everywhere. Instead, we just borrow their car. Maybe that’s what makes sixteen so sweet to the boys as they eagerly celebrate this newfound autonomy(新获得的自主权). Now they can drive without adults! Haa, haa!21.

It was given to her because o f the Navajo people(纳瓦霍人). A lot had changed because of her.Annie was born in 1910 in Arizona. When Annie was 8 years old, her father sent her away to receive a good education—homes of Navajos were too spread to build schools near where people lived. That year a terrible flu swept through her school. Some of the students died. Annie wasn’t seriously affected, so she helped care for those who were sick. She said her interest in health work began to grow because of this thing in her life.When she grew up, Wauneka saw the poor health of many Na vajo people. This troubled her, and she wanted to do something about it. In 1951, she ran for a seat on the tribal council (部落委员会). She won, and in fact, she served for 27 years.From the start, she pushed for better living conditions. Every year, many Navajosand others died from TB (肺结核). Wauneka fought to reduce the number of TB cases and deaths across the country. This was the main reason she won the Medal of Freedom in 1963.Wauneka wanted her people to take good care of their own health. She talked to them about health each week on the radio. And she wrote a dictionary of medical terms to help them talk to doctors and nurses that weren’t Navajos.Wauneka knew that education was the key to a good future. First of all, she wanted Navajo children to have schools closer to where they lived. She knew from her own childhood experiences how hard it was to leave home at a young age.Wauneka received the name “Legendary(传奇的) Mother of the Navajo Nation”from the tribal council in 1984. She could have stopped then, but of course she didn’t. At the time of her death in 1997, her grandson said, “She made us proud to be Navajo.” Annie Wauneka would have smiled to hear him say that.25.

But have you ever thought about how to take care of four to twelve old people when you grow up and get married? This could be a problem for most Chinese youths as China is entering a new stage of an aging society (老龄化社会).An aging society refers to one where 10 percent or more of its population is over 60. By the end of 2007, Chinese over 60 years old have made up 11.7 percentof the nation’s total population. “China is getting old before becoming rich,” said Cai Chuang, a professor at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. A rapid aging of the society will lead to weaker economic growth, because of a lack of labor resources.As a result of the family planning policy, it is expected that the country’s total working population will decrease after 2015.China is not the only country getting old. More that 60 countries have become aging societies and one in three people in the European Union is a senior citizen. However, experts said that China doesn't have a highly developed social security network to support the old. Social security is an insurance(保险) program protecting those in need, including the old, the disabled and others.29. An aging society is a society that _________.A. less that 10% of its population is over 60B. 10% or more of its population is over 60C. there are four old people in a familyD. most of its population is over 6030. If China enters an aging society, __________.A. there will not be enough labor resourcesB. the family planning policy will be endedC. everyone needs to take care of four to twelve old peopleD. China will have a highly developed social security network31. What does Cai Chuang mean by saying “China is getting old before becoming rich.”?A. China will be an aging society, and then be a developed country.B. China will be a rich country before being an aging society.C. An aging society will affect Chinese economy development.D. China will sto p developing because of its aging problem.32. The passage mainly talks about_______.A.an aging society B.Chinese social problemC.family planning policy D.aging problem in ChinaDAt times we all get angry when we are driving. It might be because we are stuck in a traffic jam or stuck behind a very slow driver. It might be because we think another driver has done something very stupid and dangerous. Whatever the reason, it seems that getting angry in a car is something which happens more and more often and there is now a special term for it “road rage”. Some experts even think that road rage is a kind of mental illness! How can we recognize this “illness” of road rage?There are two kinds of road rage: aggressive(挑衅的,好争斗的) driving and aggressive reactions to the way other people are driving. Aggressive driving can take different forms:●Driving much faster than the speed limit.●Increasing your speed very quickly.●Driving very close behind the car in front and sounding the horn or flashing the headlights.●Changing lanes(变线) very suddenly and blocking another car.●Moving into a parking space where another car is trying to park.There are also different reactions to the way other people are driving. These include:●Making rude signs at people.●Shouting at people and threatening them.●Driving into another person’s car on purpose.●Hitting somebody.●Using a weapon such as a baseball bat, or even a gun or a knife.Road rage is certainly not a joke. There have been accidents of road rage which have led to serious injuries and even killing.Experts think that one reason for road rage is that films show a lot of examples of fast driving such as car chases where this kind of driving seems to be positive. Experts also think that the punishments for dangerous driving are not serious enough.Experience shows that driving problems can be controlled, but it takes a long time. In the UK in the last 30 years, the police have been quite successful in reducing the number of people who drink and drive. They are now working to stop people using mobile phones when they are driving. Let’s hope they can have the same success with the ro ad rage.33. Which of the following statements does NOT describe aggressive driving?A. Driving much faster than the speed limit.B. Drinking and driving.C. Moving into a parking space where another car is trying to park.D. Changing lanes very suddenly and blocking another car.34. Road rage happens possibly because______.A. the drivers are drunk.B. it won’t cause serious injuries or death.C. we’re in a fast-changing society.D. the punishments are not serious enough.35. What’ s the tone(语气)of the last paragraph?A.Sad B.Cold C. Positive D.Exciting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。
