2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业：(8)
2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业（8）一、阅读理解1There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers, he used two buckets. One was a shiny and new bucket(桶). The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked (漏) along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!”And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know I’m not very useful, but I can only do my best. I’m happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”One day, the gardener heard that kind of conversation. After watering the flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.”Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare (光秃秃的) earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.1.What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?A.DirtyB.DarkC.Worn-out(破旧)D.Plain-looking(相貌平平)2.What was the old bucket ashamed of?A.His past.B.His aging.C.His manner.D.His leaking.3.The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to .ugh at the old oneB.take pity on the old oneC.show off (炫耀)its beautiful looksD.praise the gardener’s kindness4.Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A.Because it was used to keep a balance (平衡)B.Because it stayed in its best conditionC.Because it was taken as a treasure(珍品)D.Because it had its own function(功能、作用)2 Grandparents Answer a CallAs a third-generation native of Brownsville, Texas, Mildred Garza never pleased move away. Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to help their children, shepolitely refused . Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms Gaf finally say yes. That was four years ago. Today all three generations regard the move to a success, giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to the children and grandchildren. Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. Even President Obama’s mother-in-law, Marian Robinson, has agreed to leave Chicago and into the White House to help care for her granddaughters. According to a study grandparents com. 83 percent of the people said Mrs. Robinson ‘s decision will influenc e the grandparents in the American family. Two-thirds believe more families will follow the example of Obama’s family.“in the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn’t get away from home far enough fast enough to prove we could do it on our own,” says Christine Crosby, publisher of grate magazine for grandparents .“We now realize how important family is and how important to be near them, especially when you’re raining children.”Moving is not for everyone. Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices, but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead. Having your grandchildren far away is hard, especially knowing your adult child is struggling, but giving up the life you know may be harder.1.Why was Garza’s move a success?A.It strengthened her family ties.B.It improved her living conditions.C.It enabled her make more friends.D.It helped her know more new places.2.What was the reaction of the public to Mrs. Robinson’s d ecision?A.17% expressed their support for it.B.Few people responded sympathetically.C.83% believed it had a bad influence.D.The majority thought it was a trend.3.What did Crosby say about people in the 1960s?A.They were unsure of raise more children.B.They were eager to raise more children.C.They wanted to live away from their parents.D.They bad little respect for their grandparent.4.What does the author suggest the grandparents do in the last paragraph?A.Make decisions in the best interests' of their ownB.Ask their children to pay more visits to themC.Sacrifice for their struggling childrenD.Get to know themselves better3. It’s time to stop complaining. The economy might be melting down like butter in a hot pot, but for some people — you , maybe? — this could be a very good thing.Here’s why. At no other time in recent history has it been easier or cheaper to start a new kind of company. Possibly a very profitable company. Let’s call these start-ups LILOs, for “a little in, a lot out;” These are Web-based businesses that cost almost nothing to get off the ground yet can turn into great moneymakers.How do you get started? All that’s required is a great idea for a product that will fill a need in the 21st century. These days you’d do b est if your idea either makes people money or saves them money. And launching now will make your company stronger later —you’ll learn to survive on fumes until the economy improves.That’s what John Tayman is doing. He’s an author who lives in San Fra ncisco, where I met him; he wrote reviews for a business magazine I edited. Tayman knew little about technology and even less about business. And yet he dreamed of a website that would summarize car reviews from other sources and rank every model of new ca r. “It’ll be like meets Kelley Blue Book,” he explained to me during lunch one day last June. Tayman said he intended to build the site on the side while continuing to write for a living. He’d work on his new company only at night and on weekends. Oh, yes, and he had only about $10,000. “Good luck with that!” I thought. Ideas are much easier to produce than they are to put into practice.Tayman went to work with nothing more than his PowerBook laptop. A very well-organized fellow, he quickly discovered a bunch of free stuff online — instructional manuals and sites that walk you through the process from start to finish. Within months, Tayman had a staff of 20 employees working for him in five different countries. went live in January. Tayman figures he has worked about 10 hours a week on it and hasn’t spent a cent on marketing or advertising. Growth is modest but steady: nearly 10,000 people visit each week.1.What is an advantage of starting a business now?A.It will guarantee you a big success.B.It can never be more profitable.C.It costs you much less than ever before.D.It keeps you from useless complaining.2.What is necessary to start your business according to the passage?A.Low-cost products used to be trade.B.Practical products with good quality.C.Starting the business as early as possible.D.A good idea helping people make or save money.3.How did the author feel on hearing of Tayman’s idea?A.He was sure that it would make profit.B.He had no confidence in Tay man’s success.C.He didn’t trust his ability.D.He thought Tayman was out of his mind.4.How is Tayman’s website going now?A.It has a total of 10,000 visits per week.B.It has made a huge profit since January.C.It still copies free stuff from the Internet.D.It starts to be used by more people now.4.Is Your Diet Destroying the Environment?A vegetarian diet is often praised for its health benefits. Studies have shown that vegetarians usually have lower levels of heart disease and a lower risk of diabetes than people who eat meat. What most people are less aware of, however, are the effects that a vegetarian diet can have on the environment.Researchers from the Union of Concerned Scientists in the US recently studied how consumer behavior affects the environment. The study showed that meat consumption is one of the main ways that humans can damage the environment, second only to the use of motor vehicle.Then, how can eating meat have a negative effect on the environment? For a start, all farm animals such as cows, pigs, and sheep give off methane (沼气) gas by expelling (排出) wind from their bodies. One cow can produce up to 60 liters of methane each day. Methane gas is the second most common greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide. Many environmental experts now believe that it is more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of all methane released into the atmosphere comes from farm animals.Another way that meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of beef, whereas 20 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of wheat. One acre of farmland used for crop production can produce 40,000 pounds of potatoes, 30,000 pounds of carrots, or 50,000 pounds of tomatoes.Many people now see the benefits of switching to a vegetarian diet, not just for health reasons, but also because it plays a vital role in protecting the environment. However, some nutritionists advise against switching to a totally strict vegetarian, or vegan diet. They believe a vegan diet, which excludes all products from animal sources, such as cheese, eggs, and milk, can be short of many necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need.Today, many people know it’s important to take better care of their bodies and to use the earth’s resources more efficiently. As this understanding spreads, more people may realize that to help the environment and for the human race to survive, more of us will need to become vegetarians.1.The underlined word “it” in Para.3 refers to ___________.A.methane gasB.carbon dioxideC.expelling windD.greenhouse gas2.Many figures are used in Para.4 to show ___________.A.growing tomatoes has the highest productionB.crop production is better than meat productionC.meat production consumes too much water and landD.farm animals are the main producer of the methane gas3.What message does the passage want to convey?A.Our diet is destroying the surroundings.B.Raising farm animals affects the environment.C.A vegetarian diet helps to protect the environment.D.More and more people are becoming strict vegetarians.二、七选五5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。

We shouldn’t look down upon these people. The society should take some measures to help them.On the other hand, 54% of the students are for the idea.

It has been used by more than 100 million people. In December, the school announced it also would begin offering a special certificate, known as MITx, for people who complete certain online courses. Harvard has long offered courses to a wider population through a similar program.The MITx will serve as the foundation for the new learning platform.MIT President Susan Hockfield said more than 120,000 people signed up for the first MITx course. She said Harvard and MIT hope other universities will join them in offering courses on the open-source edX platform.“Fasten your seatbelts,” Hockfield said.Other universities, including Stanford, Yale and Carnegie-Mellon, have been experimenting with teaching to a global population online.The Harvard-MIT program will be monitored by a not-for-profit (非盈利的) organization based in Cambridge, to be owned equally by the two universities.

The Maldives faces the threat of extinction from rising sea levels, but the government said on Thursday it was looking to the future with plans to build homes and a golf course that can float.An increase in sea levels of just 18 to 59 centimeters would make the Maldives --- a nation of a number of tiny coral islands in the Indian Ocean --- not suitable for humans to live in by 2100, the UN’s climate change experts have warned.President Mohamed Nasheed has declared a fight for survival, and last month he signed a deal with a Dutch company to study suggestions for a floating structure that could support a conference centre, homes and an 18-hole golf course.The company, Dutch Docklands, is currently building floating developments in the Netherlands and Dubai. Its website said it undertook projects that make “land from water by providinglarge-scale floating constructions to create similar conditions as on land”.The Maldives began to work on an artificial island known as the Hulhumale near the crowded capital island of Male in 1997 and more than 30,000 people have been settled there in order to ease crowdedness. The city, which has a population of 100,000, is already protected from rising sea levels by a 30-million-dollar sea wall, and the government is considering increasingly imaginative ways to fight climate change.Nasheed, who held the world’s first underwater cabinet (内阁) meeting in October to highlight his people’s serious and difficult situation, has even spoken of buying land elsewhere in the wo rld to enable Maldivians to relocate if their homes are completely covered.He has also promised to turn his nation into a model for the rest of the world by becoming “carbon neutral (碳中和)” by 2020.

When your family arrives in Marrakech,the fourth largest city of Morocco,start your journey in the main square of Dejemaa el-Fna,the center of Marrakech's medina quarter(old city).Here kids will see the monkey men,cobra charmers,acrobats,storytellers,and henna-haired artists.The medina itself is a network of streets of jewelry,cafes,silverware,furniture,pottery,andsuqs(The Arab word for markets).The courtyards of riad(traditional Moroccan houses or palaces) are filled with sweet-smelling flowers and orange trees,and decorated with attractive fountains.From somewhere comes the beautiful music of sinters—Moroccan versions of guitars.Food stalls(摊位) serve kebabs,fried fish,hot bread,couscous,and slow-cooked lamb.For the next step of your journey,go deep into the suq,like the McCarthys.“Kids are so used to discovering things.Every corner was filled with strange and interestingthings.Colors,sounds,objects needed explanation. Touching and handling things were encouraged.Every interaction(互动) made my nine-year-old son,Sam question: What's this drum made of? Why is that man buried in a hole up to his waist?The inquisitiveness made his interaction with locals easy and playful,” said actor and writer Andrew McCarthy.“I have never met people who delight in kids more than Moroccans,” he continued.“They all seem to be half-child,half-adult themselves.So they were quick to play.My child wasn't used to urging me to buy;he was given gifts nearly everywhere we stopped,with nothing expected inr eturn.Everyone asked him his name.Kids are treated as stars here.”The suq is a dizzying market of mazelike(迷宫似的) passages and countless stalls.It remains traditional,filled with day-to-day life that most kids born in modern cities will find unfamiliar,but that offers you a chance to discuss cultural differences with your child.“My son loved people actually creating things—dyeing fabric different colors,men carving wood who always gave him small objects after they were made,” says McCarthy.“He was fascinated by the streets where people lived.He accepted the poverty without judgment.He talked and played with kids his age with natural sympathy and respect in a way I had never seen or taught him,”said McCarthy.1.What does the underlined word “inquisitiveness” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Patience.B.Curiosity.fort.D.Explanation.2.What impressed McCarthy according to the last Paragraph?A.The locals' poor living conditions.B.The wonderful wooden objects.C.Sam's way to interact with local kids.D.The artistic creativity of Moroccans.3.If you go deep into the suq, you________.A.can see many interesting things in every cornerB.cannot touch anything in the suqC.should not ask questionsD.should bargain for a good price4.This passage is written mainly for ________.A.businessmen in MoroccoB.parents with young kidsC.visitors in MarrakechD.local people in Marrakech4. Developed and developing nations can learn from each other seeking a low carbon economy,a Chinese government official said in Shanghai yesterday.“China doesn't lag developed nations in terms of energy saving and green economy”,said Zhou Changyi,director of the energy saving department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.“While we can learn many as pects from developed nations,they also should learn something from us,such as water conservation,” Zhou said in a speech during the new Path of China's Industrialization forum at the ongoing China International Industry Fair 2009.He said industrialized nations and China are dealing with different issues to combat climate change. The United Kingdom,for example,is concerned about transport,buildings and new energy in reducing carbon emissions. For China,the most urgent task is how to realize new type of industrialization and avoid mistakes that other countries made when they industrialized.As such, overseas exhibitors at this year's fair are showing ways to help China achieve low carbon emissions in the industrial section.Swiss power and automation technology group ABB called for a stronger focus on product lifecycle assessment,or LCA,which is used to study the environmental impact of a product from the research and manufacturing stage through its usage and recycling.Tobias Becker,head of ABB's process automation division for North Asia and China,said LCA is an effective tool in helping manufacturing industries to reduce carbon emissions.LCA shows that industrial customers should focus on a product's environmental impact throughout its lifecycle instead of on its initial investment or ready to use stage. For example,a motor's initial investment accounts for only 3 percent of its lifecycle cost,while 94 percent goes to fuel consumption and the rest to maintenance.Richard Hausmann,North Ea st Asia CEO of Siemens,said,“The color of future industrialization is green.”The Germany Company recently announces that it wants to receive orders worth more than 6 billion Euros (US 8.8 billion) for intelligent net power networks,Smart Grid,over the next five years. Siemens has set a 20 percent market share target for the global smart grid business.A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology,advanced sensors specialized computers that save energy,reduce costs and increase reliability. The United States and China are considered the two biggest markets for smart grid.1.“______” can replace the underlined word “lag”in paragraph2.A.be superior toB.fall behindC.attackD.fear2.We can infer ______ from the last two paragraphs of this passage.A.Siemens' plan about Smart Grid may come true in the futureB.Siemens received orders worth 6 billion Euros recentlyC.Siemens will earn $ 8.8 billion from intelligent power networksD.Siemens has occupied 20 percent market share for the global smart grid business3.The best title for the passage ______.A.Developed and Developing Nations Can Learn From Each OtherB.Intelligent Power NetworksC.Low carbon Economy—a Shared GoalD.Two Biggest Markets for Smart Grid二、七选五5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。

2017-2018学年人教版高一英语暑假作业（11）一、阅读理解1Good morning. The program today is about music. The word “music” comes from the Greek word “muse”. The Muses are the goddesses of the arts. Music is only one of the arts. It is like the spoken language, but is uses sounds. Today's program brings together music from different corners of the world. Who invented music? Who sang the first song? No one knows exactly the answers to these questions. But we know that music plays an important part in almost everyone's life. Babies and young children love to hear people singing to them. When they are a little older, they like to sing the songs they have heard. When children go to school, their world of music grows. In the middle grades students take music lessons. When they reach high school, they become interested in listening to pop music.The records we have chosen for you today are form American country music, Indian music, pop music and so on. Music has meaning for everyone. It can make people happy or it can make them sad. In this program we shall study the language of music. We shall be trying to find out more about how music works. We shall try to find out how music says what people feel.Now, here comes the music today, I shall explain why they are all good music…1.The first paragraph is mainly about the .A.styles of musicB.history of musicC.taste of musicD.knowledge of music.2.The speaker is probably .A.a hostB.a singerC.a dancerD.a teacher3.Which is TRUE according to the passage?A.The Muses invented music.B.Music can bring people some feelings.C.Music was from a Greek village.D.Everyone is interested in pop music.4.What is NOT the purpose of this music program?A.To study the language of musicB.To learn more about the musicC.To give a complete background to the musicD.To give people some music to listen to2 When we are young, we are taught that it’s wrong to lie and we should always tell the truth. Unfortunately, most children lie even if they are told not to. Research carried out at the Institute of Child Study at Toronto University has shown that this might not be such a bad thing. Apparently(显然地), children who tell lies when they are two years old have a good chance of becoming successful adults.According to the research, at the age of two, 20 per cent of children lie. At the age of three, 50 per cent lie, and at four almost 90 per cent lie. By the age of 12 almost every child tells lies.Lying needs much brain work, and the better the lie is, the more work the brain has to do. By training the brain early, researchers believe children will be able to think more clearly when they grow up.Recent research, carried out by the Science Museum in London, has shown some interesting facts about the way we lie as adults. According to the research, the average British man tells three lies every day; that’s over 1,000 lies a year. However, the average woman apparently only lies twice a day.Most people think women are better liars (说谎者) than men although in fact they tell fewer lies. Popular women’s lies include ‘Nothing’s wrong, I m fine’, ‘I don’t know where it is, I haven’t touched it’, and ‘It wasn’t that expensive’.Some people say you can lie as long as it’s a white lie. A white lie is a lie told to avoid hurting someon e’s feelings. One of the most common lies for both men and women is ‘it’s just what I’ve always wanted’, said after opening a present from their partner.1.What will happen to young children who lie?A.They’re likely to succeed in the future.B.They will keep lying when they grow up.C.They will possibly do wrong things later.D.They may have a good chance of losing others’ trust.2.What do the numbers in Para. 2 show about children?A.Older children tell bigger lies than younger ones.B.As they grow, they often lie about their age.C.The older they are, the more likely they lie.D.It’s quite natural for them to tell lies.3.What did the research by the Science Museum find out?A.Men lie more than women.B.Women are better liars than men.C.Women’s lies are usually not serious.D.Men sometimes have to lie to women.4.What’s the true feeling behind the underlined part in the last paragraph?A.You know me so well.B.I don’t like the present.C.You are good at picking presents.D.I haven’t received a present I r eally like.3 If you are hungry, what do you do? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? Just like your stomach, your mind is also hungry. But it never lets you know, because, you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity(创造性) sets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think "What happens next?", "Why can't I think?"Hunger of the mind can be actually solved through wide reading. Why reading but not watching TV? It is because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from childhood. Since it develops other ways of our life, we have to take help from reading.Once you read a book, you run your eyes through the lines and your mind tries to explain something to you. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed(种子). Now this seed is unknowingly used by you to develop new ideas. If it is used many times, the same seed can give you great help to relate a lot of things, which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams!This is nothing but creativity. Also this makes a huge contribution to your vocabulary. Within no time you can start talking with your friends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words.So guys, do give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. Now what are you waiting for? Go and get a book!1.When your mind is hungry, the best way is_________.A.ThinkingB.eatingC.ReadingD.watching TV2.The following are advantages of reading EXCEPT that_______.A.reading feeds your hungry mind.B.reading makes creativity set a full stop.C.reading can help you relate a lot of things.D.reading will contribute to your vocabulary.3.What's the purpose of the passage?A.To introduce a book.B.To persuade us to read.C.To explain hunger of mind.D.To tell us how to create things.4. The woman had died when the rescuers found her after the terrible earthquake. She was covered by a destroyed house. Through gaps (缝隙) of those ruins,the rescuers could see her last posture (姿势). It was something like an ancient person who was kowtowing (叩头),but it just looked strange because she was out of shape by pressure.The rescuers confirmed her death by touching her through the gaps of the ruins. They shouted at the ruins again and again,knocked the bricks using various tools,but no reply inside.Then the rescuing team went to the next building.

The doctor looked at the screen;a written message was already there:“My dear baby,if you could live,don’t forget how much I love you.” As a doctor,he experienced much of this type of separation;but at this moment,he cried.
