Reading Comprehension (15%)Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington, D.C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Luvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami alsoshows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone. You can call the telephone number of a university computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their works.A computer artist can only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs, to others to see on their computers. He can also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needs an expensive laser printer.Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr. Shostak said the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.51. The main purpose of this passage is to give information about __________.A. museums throughout the worldB. an electronic art museum in Miami, U.S.AC. art exhibitions in Florida International UniversityD. latest development of computer art52. To see the art in FIU museum, people need __________.A. floppy discsB. a computer and a printerC. pictures and drawings on paperD. a computer connected to the museum by telephone line53. The FIU museum was started when __________.A. Robert Shostak wanted to do something for computer scientistsB. art students4 needed a place to show their worksC. Robert Shostak wanted to help computer artistsD. computer scientists wanted to do something about art54. “An audience” in th e last paragraph refers to __________.A. computer ownersB. art studentsC. those who will enjoy artD. computer artists55. If you were to go to work for this company, you could expect to ______________.A. move up to a better pay if your work was goodB. be out of work at certain times of the yearC. pay your own hospital and doctor billsD. work on Sundays and holidays56.

The jobs being offered probably require __________________.A. precious training in higher mathematicsB. a knowledge of office practicesC. experiences in electronicsD. no special skillsThe majority of astronauts from America have been men. At the start of the space programme there was strong resistance from some people against having women in space. However, some women were very keen to become astronauts and in the end they were successful. In 1978, NASA began the first training programme for women astronauts.Judy Resnick and Christa McAuliffe were both astronauts and they were both women, but in many other ways they were very different. Both of them were on Flight STS-5L-L. Judy Resnick was born in 1949 and studied engineering at university and went on to obtain a PhD in 1977. She was a member of the first group of women selected for astronaut training in 1978, and in 1984, she became the second woman in space. During that flight, she helped to launch three new satellites and she carried out a programme of research. She was, in many ways, a professional astronaut whose whole life was devoted to space travel.Christa McAuliffe was born in 1948 and she was an astronaut almost by accident. In 1984, NASA decided to find a teacher who could accompany astronauts into space. They hoped that she would be able to communicate with students from space and encourage every one of them to be interested in space travel. Christa was a secondary teacher in history and social studies. She was a gifted teacher and she was selected from over 11,000 applicants to go on flight STS-51-L. She was also a very good communicator and she immediately established a very good relationship with the news media(radio, television and newspapers). It was partly because of this that there was a great deal of interest and excitement about the flight. Thousands of students in schools and universities all around the country were looking forward to communicating with Christa in space. Millions of people were watching her flight with great interest. It is partly because of the excitement over McAuliffe's place in the flight that the disaster in 1986 had such an effect on people.58.We can learn from the first two paragraphs that ___________.A. Judy was against the idea of having women in space at firstB. Judy was the first woman selected for astronaut trainingC. Judy helped to launch three new satellites at the age of 35D. Judy carried out a programme during her second space travel59.Christa McAuliffe was chosen for training because _______.A. she was popular with the news mediaB. she expected to give history lessons in spaceC. she was an excellent teacher and communicatorD. she made the students in space very excited50.The reason why there was great interest in Flight STS-51-L is that ________.A. both Christa and Judy got PhD degrees in the same yearB. a young secondary school teacher was on the flightC. students were going to learn more about space travelD. it was the first time for women to travel in space61.What would be the best title for the passage?A. Two AstronautsB. Flight STS-51-LC. Travelling in SpaceD. The Training Programme(D)City traffic is a great problem. More cars are produced every year and the streets are getting more and more crowded. So during “rush hour”, when people are going to or from their work, traffic is brought to a standstill. It has been suggested that commuters should share their cars and give each other lifts. So each car would carry four or five people instead of only one. It is an excellent idea, however, so far nobody has been able to think of a way to compel people to do so.To discourage motorists from leaving their cars in the streets all day, parking meters（计量仪器）are used. When you park at a meter, you must put a coin in the slot. This pays for a certain amount of time. The meter records this and it shows when the time that you have paid for is finished. If the car is still there then, you have to pay a fine.Traffic wardens look after the meters. They walk around the streets and check that every meter shows that money has been paid for the car parked there. If a meter registers “Time expired”（时间已到）, the motorist who has left his car there is fined. Of course, the traffic warden cannot wait for the owner of the car to return. He carries a block of printed forms, and on one of these he writes down all the details, such as the registration number of the car, where it is parked, how much the driver must pay and where he must send the money. He leaves this form on the car where the driver will be able to see it easily; he usually pushes it under one of the windscreen wipers so that it will not blow away. And in case it rains before the motorist returns, the form is put in a little plastic envelope to protect it. When the driver comes back, he gets an unpleasant surprise, but it is his own fault for leaving his car too long at a parking meter.62. The underlined word “standstill” means _____.A. rushB. stopC. adventureD. struggle63. Which detail is not written on the printed form?A. Registration number of the car.B. The place where the car is parked.C. The name of the car owner.D. The place to pay the fine.64. Which is not true about the parking meters?A. People can put coins into it.B. It keeps a record of the time when drivers park their car.C. It shows people when they have to drive away the cars.D. It warns the drivers ten minutes before the time limit.65. What’s the advantage of using parking meters in the streets?A. It makes it possible that everyone has a place to park his car.B. It discourages motorists from parking cars for too long a time.C. It saves labor because traffic wardens are no longer needed.D. It keeps a record of time and drivers can put the parking fine into it第二卷(35%)I.

山西省寿阳县第一中学2024-2025学年高一英语下学期其次次月考试题（考试时间：100分钟试卷满分：150分）第一卷第一部分：听力（略）其次部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分60分）第一节（共15小题；每小题3分，满分45分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AAmsterdam, the capital and most populous city in the Netherlands, is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world, famous for its beautiful canals, top art museum, cycling culture, and Red Light District. Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam.Must-See AttractionsMost visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre, which is full of traditional architecture, shopping centers, and coffee shops. You’ll also want to check out Amsterdam’s Museum Quarter in the South District, which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the Vondelpark. The top museums to visit are the Rijksmusuem, the Ann Frank House, and the Van Gogh Museum. The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a popular place for celebrity spotting and nightlife today.TransportationTravelers should be aware that Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is one of the busiest airports in the world. This airport is located about 15 kilometers southwest of city center. You can catch a train from Schiphol to Amsterdam Central Station, which has many connecting routes. It’s typically not a good idea to drive a car to the city center because traffic is heavy and parking is difficult to find. Cycling is incredibly popular here, and it’s easy to find cheap bike rentals around town. Amsterdam has a flat terrain(地形) and is a great city to explore on foot.Money Saving TipsUnless you really want to see the tulips(郁金香) blooming, avoid booking betweenmid-March and mid-May. This is when hotel and flight prices rise.Look for accommodations in Amsterdam’s South District, where rates are generallycheaper than in the city center.Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.Instead of hiring a tour guide, hop on a canal boat. They’re inexpensive andwill give you a unique point of view of the city.Check out our homepage to view price comparisons for flights, hotels, and rentalcars before you book.1.Which attraction was built with the original purpose of drawing the rich?A. Albert Cuyp Market.B. The Ann Frank House.C. The Van Gogh Museum.D. The Canal Ring.2. Which means of transportation is not advisable in Amsterdam according to thepassage?A. The plane.B. The train.C. The car.D. The bike.3. Which way can help visitors save money in Amsterdam?A .Seeing the tulips blooming in spring. B. Avoiding accommodating downtown.C. Buying car tickets at the machine.D. Hiring a local tour guide.BTwelve years ago, a young traveler named Rhett Butler from San Francisco,California, visited the Sabah rainforest on Malaysian Borneo. In one area of therainforest, he watched a bird flying through the trees. The beautiful sight left quitean impression on him. But weeks later, back home, Rhett Butler got the news that treeshad been cut down in the area he visited.That experience led Rhett Butler to begin writing a book about rainforests andthreats to their existence. But he did not publish the book. Instead, in 1999, heused his research for the book to create a website. The site is Mongabay. Com. Hispurpose was to inform the public about tropical rainforests. But the subject quicklydeveloped. As a former businessman, he became a respected writer of science andenvironmental stories.The popularity of Mongabay. Com attracted advertisers. Small ads on the site pay for its operations. Mongabay. Com has grown and led to other sites. For example, there is a site for children which is called kids. Mongabay. Com. Another one, WildMadangascar. Org, is all about the island nation that Rhett Butler calls his favorite place.To keep his website going, he travels around the world on several major trips each year. His working tools are a laptop computer, cameras and sometimes diving equipment. He often calls on experts for information. For example, he interviewed Alison Jolly, a top experts on lemurs(狐猴). He interviewed Rodney Jackson, a biologist who established the Snow Leopard Conservancy.Stories like these have made Mongabay a favorite place on the Internet for researchers, students and teachers. In April, Time. Com named it one of the fifteen top climate and environment websites in the world.4. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Rhett Butler and his website.B. Rainforest on Malaysian Borneo.C. How Rhett Butler protected rare animals.D. How Rhett Butler made his website popular.5. Rhett Butler didn’t publish his book about rainforests because _______.A. making websites earns more money than writing booksB. he didn’t want to become a writerC. the book was not about rainforest protectionD. he wanted to use the information to create a website6. Which of the followings is NOT true about the Mongabay. Com?A. It was set up in 1999.B. It attracted many advertisers.C. At least two related websites grew from it.D. Rhett Butler made a lot of money from it.7. To keep his website going, Rhett Butler ________.A. kept visiting the rainforestB. traveled around and interviewed expertsC. raised rare snow leopardsD. made a great number of advertisementsCMy daughter had a bullying(欺凌) problem a couple of years ago. She kept receiving rude text messages from kids at school. Dealing with school bullying wasn’t easy, but I finally ended it. When you realize things are serious, it is no time to be silent.If your kids are also receiving such text messages, take them directly to the headmaster and show him. Describe to him how it is affecting your kids. Tell him you will not tolerate it and that you want him to put an end to it now.School bullying is a dangerous and serious issue these days .and any good headmaster w ill take your charges seriously. He will probably address the issues with the parents. If they are crappy(糟糕的)parents, then they may do nothing to their child. You may have to repeat this process several times, but you need to keep a check on those text messages and don’t allow your child to delete them .Now it is time to draw your child close and take care of him/her, because he/she needs it. My daughter did not like me being involved either, but you are the only person your kid can depend on to solve this problem, so do it and mean business. Always be polite, but straight forward . The headmaster and parents must know you mean business.If repeated meetings with the headmaster (and parents , if he allows it ) do not work, then I would consider hiring a lawyer. That will send the message loud and clear. When you are talking about financial loss, most parents will stand up and take notice and act to keep their kids under control!I know a lawyer is a big expense and not something you do lightly, but when bad things like school bullying are happening to your children, you must act and act quickly.8.Which of the foll owing can replace the underlined word “tolerate” in Paragraph 2?A. mindB. discussC. standD. affect9. What does the author suggest about school bullying in Paragraph 4?A. Children can deal with it themselves.B. Not all bullying problems can be solved.C. Parents should fully respect kids’ thoughts.D. It’s necessary for parents to be involved in it.10. What should parents do if the headmaster fails to solve the bullying problem?A.Ask a lawyer for help.B. Put your child under your care.C. Meet the bullies in person.D. Ask the parents of the bullies for money.11. Why does the author write the text?A. To seek help .B. To offer advice.C. To ask for advice.D. To share his experience.DRobot vacuum cleaners aren’t a new concept, having been around for more than 15 years, but they have become greatly more helpful since the days of catching on rug hairs, running out of battery mid-clean and forgetting where they were.But the next generation of disc-shaped floor-cleaners could bring some of the most important upgrades yet, including being more autonomous than ever and knowing exactly where they are in your home and where you need them to be.iRobot’s latest Roombas, the i7 and i7+, shown off at a recent event in Tokyo, will be arriving in Australia in the coming months. Their key new feature: persistent mapping of your home. The ability to map not only makes the robot quicker and more efficient, but lets it integrate(融入) more closely with smart homes. Once it’s explored your house a few times, the i7 will present you with a map via its smart phone app, which Angle says tends to be “maybe 80 per cent right”.As the robot travels around cleaning up dust, it draws a floor plan and uses a sensor(传感器) to identify landmarks and objects. Unlike previous models, the i7 remembers this information, meaning it will learn the most efficient paths around your home over time.If you change the layout of your furniture, it will adapt the existing map rather than having to create a whole new one and if you have a multi-storey house, it simplymakes multiple maps, and uses its learned landmarks to determine which floor it’s on (you’ll still need to carry it up the stairs).iRobot’s CEO and founder Colin Angle says the i7 class, the company’s 10th generation Roomba, is the robot he’s always wanted to build; capable of keeping a home’s floors clean with virtually no user input needed.“This robot has 30 times the processing power of its former generation,” he says. “So we’re fully into a situation today where we can be running machine learning and visual object recognition technology and very advanced algorithms(演算法; 运算法则) on the robot, to allow it to continue to work on increasingly complicated code.”12.According to the passage the robot cleaners invented 15 years ago could ______.A. catch on the hairs on the rugB. charge the battery mid-cleanC. draw the map of the homeD. know their exact home position13. The underlined word “layout” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by ______.A. arrangementB. designC. styleD. size14. Which of the following statements about the i7 and i7+ is true?A. i7 remembers the identified landmarks like former models.B. They can enter the room upstairs themselves and clean it.C. They can do better in math than the previous cleaners.D.i7 can present a map exactly via its smart phone app.15. What can be the best title of the passage?A. Technologies in the Cleaner.B. The Future of iRobots.C. The Development of iRobots.D. The Latest Robot Cleaner.其次节（共5小题；每小题3分，共15分）依据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

English is among them.Scientists say that this sleep study method greatly speeds language learning. They say that the ordinary person can learn two or three times as much during sleep as in the same period during the day —and this does not affect his rest in any way. However, sleep teaching will only put into your head what you have studied already while you are awake.In one experiment, ten lessons were broadcast over the radio for two weeks. Each lesson lasted twelve hours — from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. The first three hours of English grammar and vocabulary were given with the students awake. At 11 p.m. a lullaby (催眠曲) was broadcast to send the student to sleep and for the next three hours the radio in a soft and low voice broadcast the lesson again into his sleeping ears. At 2 a.m. a sharp noise was sent over the radio to wake the sleeping student up for a few minutes to go over the lesson. The soft music sent him back to rest again while the radio went on. At 5 o'clock his sleep ended and he had to go through the lesson again for three hours before breakfast. 41.By the learn while you sleep method, one____ . A. starts to learn a new lesson in sleep B. learns how to sleep betterC. is made to remember his lesson in sleepD. can listen to the radio broadcast while lying in bed 42.In the experiment, lessons were given____ . A. in the night timeB. after lullabies were broadcastC. while the student was awakeD. all through the twelve hours43.Before each lesson finishes, the student has to____ . A. get up and take breakfast B. be woken up by a loud voiceC. listen to the lesson again in sleepD. review the lesson by himself44.The sleep study method is being tried in many countries to teach____ . A. the English language B. grammar and vocabulary C. a number of subjects D. foreign languages Passage BFrom Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy themselves. Some watch TV or go to the movies; others take part in sports. It depends on individual interests. There are many different ways to spend our spare time. Almost everyone has some kinds of hobbies. It may be anything fromcollecting stamps to making model airplanes. Some hobbies are very expensive, but others don't cost anything at all. Some collections are worth a lot of money; others are valuable only to their owners.I know a man who has a coin collection worth several thousand dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare fifty cent piece worth S ｜250! He was very happy about his buying and thought the price was reasonable . On the other hand, my youngest brother collects matchboxes. He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are worth any money. However, to my brother they are very valuable. Nothing makes him happier than to find a new matchbox for his collection.That's what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for the fun of it. The value in dollars is not important, but the pleasure it gives us is.：45.The underlined word “individual” in the first paragraph most probably means____ .A. differentB. strangeC. secretD. one's own46. In the writer's opinion, ____.A. all hobbies are very expensiveB. some hobbies don't cost anythingC. hobbies are worthlessD. hobbies are valuable to everybody47.Something that one enjoys doing in one's spare time is a____ .A. jobB. pleasureC. hobbyD. habit48.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The writer's brother has a large collection of matchboxes, which makes him very happy.B. We collect a subject in our spare time simply for the fun of it.C. The pleasure that a hobby can give is important.D. To have a hobby means to spend a lot of money.Passage CMillions of years ago there were many types of dinosaurs on earth. Most dinosaurs were plant eaters. The Apatosaurus, for example, had a long thin neck so that it could eat leaves from trees. Other dinosaurs were meat eaters. The Tyrannosaurus Rex killed smaller dinosaurs for food.Dinosaurs were real animals that once lived on the earth, but they died out about 65 million years ago. The disappearance of the dinosaurs is in some way a great mystery. Some scientists think that the climate changed suddenly. Fossils (化石) of trees tell us that the temperature dropped a lot and that the level of the sea dropped as well. This means that it got suddenly much colder. Perhaps the dinosaurs were too slow to change with the climate.A new idea is that a meteor (流星) crashed into the earth. Scientists discovered a place in Mexico where they think the meteor crashed. They think that there was a lot of dust from the meteor. The dust landed on the plants. Also the dust blocked (阻挡) the sun's light for as long as five years. Many animals, including dinosaurs, were plant eaters, and perhaps the dust killed them. This means there was nothing left for meat eating dinosaurs to eat, and so they died out. But, as many animals from that time didn’t die, we are not 100% su re what really happened.49.What is the subject discussed in the text?A. Dinosaurs, the real animals living millions of years ago.B. The two types of dinosaurs.C. The probable reasons for dinosaurs disappearance.D. A meteor crashed into the earth.50.What are the two possible explanations to the dinosaurs disappearance?A. Temperature dropping and sea level dropping.B. Climate changing and meteor's crashing.C. The dropping of temperature and sea level.D. Climate changing and the dust blocking the sun.○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○…… 姓名 考号 考场号51.What is the direct cause of the disappearance of meat eating dinosaurs? A. A meteor's crashing. B. The dust blocking the sun. C. The plant eating dinosaurs death. D. It is still unknown. Passage DIn choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend ca n help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happ y. 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 r un away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliabil ity.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 wewould 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!52.Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?A. Understanding.B. honesty.C. Reliability.D. a sense of humor. 53.If you have fair weather friends, ______ .A. they will give you all that they have when you need helpB. you will be refused when you get into troubleC. you will become richD. you can be sure that you get real friends 54.Good friends need to ______.A. always point out each other's mistakesB. be helped with moneyC. understand each other's feelingsD. have money or luck 55.This passage mainly discuss ______ .A. the qualities of a friendB. where to choose friendsC. how to get along with friendsD. the importance of having a friend第Ⅱ卷（非选择题共40分）四、单词拼写（共计10 小题；每题1分；共10分）56.The society is always developing and we can't make exact____________(预测) of the future.57.Y ou should ______(当然) stay in the bed if the doctor tells you to.58.She is always ___________(乐观的) when she meets with difficulties.59.Will it be _______________(方便的)to come in the afternoon?60.She was __________(遭受) from a headache.61.Several official were_________（卷入）in the matter.62.She ______(变化) her dress as fashion changes.63.The orchestra will give two more ________(表演) this week.64.Students shouldn't leave school without the teacher's______(许可)65.Being deaf and dumb makes_________(交流) very difficult.五、写作（30分）近几年，由于汽车产业的迅速发展，私家车的购买量猛增。

陕西省延安中学2023-2024学年高一下学期第二次月考英语试卷
陕西省延安中学2023-2024学年高一下学期第二次月考英语试卷一、阅读理解Four Places to Listen to Free Music OnlinePandoraPandora is a popular Internet radio service that lets users create personalized stations and listen to music. To use Pandora, you will have to create an account using your email address and a password. As you find music you like, you can save songs to your collection. However, you can’t download any specific tracks to your computer or phone.LiveOneOn LiveOne, you’ll mostly find big artists, bands and songs along with interviews and news. While you won’t be able to stream all songs on demand for free due to licensing restrictions (限制), you will be able to create a station of similar tracks/artists from nearly any song. There’s a tab (标签) named “My Library” where you can save and share your favourite music.iHeartRadioiHeartRadio is a great website or app for listening to live radio stations. You can find local stations or check out stations from around the country. You won’t have to create an account to begin listening on iHeartRadio. but you can make one for free to save stations and playlists. Whether you decide to create an account or not. you won’t be able to download music from iHeartRadio.SpotifyIf you’re looking for free music online, you’ve most likely come across Spotify already. This resource is great for streaming popular hits while discovering new favourites. You can keep track of what you’ve recently played, and “favourite” songs. In addition to music. Spotify offers playlists of its most-played songs and information on local upcoming concerts.1．Which is a must before using Pandora?A．Saving some songs.B．Creating an account.C．Calling other users.D．Sending a private email.2．What can you do on “My Library” of LiveOne?A．Download popular songs.B．Make new friends online.C．Share your favourite music.D．Discover radio stations.3．What is special about Spotify?A．It offers news on local upcoming concerts.B．It requires no membership card.C．It allows users to download music for free.D．It features a station of similar artists.Binge-watching (刷剧) is when a person watches more than one episode of a show in a row. With developments in the speed and connectivity of the Internet, increases in technology and the rise of on-demand entertainment companies, people can now have their favorite shows stream (流播) directly to their television at their convenience.This behavior is nothing new. In fact, binge-watching has been officially listed in dictionaries since 2015. The entertainment companies recognize this behavior and many take steps to encourage it. Often, instead of releasing each episode on a week-by-week basis, an entire series will become available concurrently. Once the episode finishes, many platforms will display pop-ups with “you might like” suggestions, or will automatically play the next episode.However, recent research suggests that out of the more than half of British adults who watch more than one episode of a show back-to-back (一集接一集地), almost a third have admitted missing sleep or becoming tired as a result; and 25% have neglected their household chores (家务活). Next we’ll be missing work!Bingeing has other connections — binge eating, binge drinking and binge smoking. All of them are often associated with a lack of control and a possible route to addiction. Lindsey Fussell, consumer group director, said, “The days of waiting a week for the next episode are largely gone, with people finding it hard to resist (抗拒) watching multiple episodes around the house or on the move.” If people find binge-watching hard to resist, are we witnessing the birth of a new type of addiction?The countless number of information and entertainment that television and online media can bring us is, many would say, a good thing. However, when the activity begins to bleed into other areas, causing us to stop functioning, then it becomes a problem. So, what’s the answer? Moderation! Neither a tiny amount, nor too much. After all, as the old proverb says, “A little ofwhat you fancy does you good.”4．How did the writer develop the first paragraph?A．By giving a definition.B．By telling a story.C．By listing some examples.D．By analyzing the cause and effect. 5．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “concurrently” in Paragraph2?A．For convenience.B．At the same time.C．In detail.D．Free of charge.6．What Lindsey said in Paragraph 4 implies that ______.A．people can’t control their feelings B．people can’t resist the temptation of Bingeing C．people have no patience to do work D．people are addicted to waiting for a new episode7．What advice did the writer give at last?A．To keep online media from stopping functioning.B．To enjoy entertainment as much as possible.C．To learn life lessons from the episodes.D．To watch episodes in a moderate way.This week, Google researchers published a paper describing results from an AI tool built to create music. The tool, called MusicLM, is not the first AI music tool to be launched. But the examples Google provided demonstrate musical creative ability based on a limited set of descriptive words.Several different music examples produced by MusicLM were published online. Some of the generated music came from just one-or two-word descriptions, such as “jazz”, “rock” or “techno (高科技舞曲)”. The tool also created other examples from more detailed descriptions containing whole sentences.In one example, Google researchers included these instructions to MusicLM, “It is a soundtrack of a game. It is fast-paced and upbeat, with a catchy electric guitar riff (反复乐节). The music is repetitive and easy to remember, but with unexpected sounds ...” In the resulting recording, the music seemed to keep very close to the description. The team said the more detailed the description was, the better the system could attempt to produce it.The MusicLM model operates similarly to the machine-learning systems used by ChatGPT. ChatGPT and MusicLM both require powerful computers to operate complex machine-learning models. The San Francisco-based company OpenAI launched ChatGPT late last year. ChatGPT has recently received a lot of attention because of its ability to generate complex writings and other content from just a simple description in natural languages. Such tools can produce human-like results because they are trained on huge amounts of data. Many different materials are fed into the systems to permit them to learn complex skills to create realistic works.However, the MusicLM researchers said there were some risks linked to the new tool. One of the biggest issues the researchers identified was biases (偏好) present in the training data. A bias might be including too much of one side and not enough of the other. The researchers said this raised a question about appropriateness for music generation for cultures underrepresented in the training data.8．What can we learn about MusicLM?A．It is the first AI music tool to be launched.B．It requires detailed descriptions of full sentences.C．It creates music based on simple descriptive words.D．It generates complex writings from a simple description.9．What is the similarity between ChatGPT and MusicLM?A．They can take the place of musicians.B．They have gained commercial success.C．They don't have any practical use in life.D．They are based on huge amounts of data. 10．Which of the following is an issue of the MusicLM model?A．Creating music with strong biases.B．Requiring too much training data.C．Being difficult for some people to use.D．Producing music works with no creativity. 11．What would be the best title for the text?A．The future of humans with AI B．A new AI tool to make musicC．Music created by some AI tools D．AI and its function in culture developmentCyber-bullying (网络欺凌) may take place in the online world, but it is no less damaging than in the real world. The Internet has become a kindness desert, a place where few flowers bloom. Bullying is pretty common. 12 According to those bullied, they’re usually seen asbeing different from the crowd. They are unique.Being bullied is a frustrating and painful experience. Online bullying can really hurt others, and it can have serious consequences. 13 Some people have even committed suicide because they were harassed (侵扰) online and didn’t think it would ever stop. Here are some valuable tips to help you address a bully and protect yourself in a safe way.Don’t blame yourself. 14 It’s only the bully’s fault, so don’t blame yourself for his or her shortcomings.Stay away from bullies. Bullies hope you interact with them so that they have an excuse to keep picking on you. When the bully starts orally attacking you, remove yourself from the situation if you can, simply by walking away.15 Try as you might to ignore the bullies when they are saying ugly things about you. Remind yourself that you are a great person and that nothing the bullies say matters.Speak out. Nobody has the right to make you feel unsafe, uncomfortable or unhappy. Find someone you can talk to, your teacher or your parent and tell them what’s going on. 16 Follow these tips and you should feel well-equipped to deal with your bullies the next time they attack.A．Keep track of bullies.B．Be sure you’re wonderful.C．Adults can offer help if they know about the problem.D．Being bullied can make you feel alone, scared, and hopeless.E．Your parents are willing to help you when recognizing your problem.F．If you are being bullied, it’s essential to know that it is never your fault.G．Studies have found that nearly one-third of all students are bullied each year.二、完形填空The caring employees at a Costco store near Cleveland, Ohio, are being honoured as heroes.

高一英语二月月考试题
鲁山县第一高级中学2021-2021学年高一英语二月月考试题制卷人：歐陽文化、歐陽理複；制卷時間：二O二二年二月七日第一卷〔一共70分〕第一局部阅读理解〔一共两节，满分是40分〕第一节〔一共15小题；每一小题2分，满分是30分〕AWhy a toy store isn’t just fun and gamesSteven Aarons is the owner of Barstons Child’s Play, an independent toy store in the Washington area. This is a journalist’s interview with him. Interviewer: Did you have a lot of toys as a child?Steven Aarons:No. My parents were not in any sort of financial position to buy toys as gifts. If I had any toys, they were from my uncle.Interviewer: Why did you want to have a toy store?Steven Aarons: When I was thinking about starting a toy store, I had friends who were artists. I was discussing with them the idea that kids are a blank page. And I think the materials you give to a child are really important to fill it. Interviewer: What makes for a great toy store?Steven Aarons: A toy store should consider the development of a child and can mix in thefact that some things are only for play. We’ll have a small shelf of Barbie dolls, but we are not going to put it out there predominately(占绝大多数地). I try to think of play time as being the same as nutrition(营养). When you work on a dietfor your children you are trying to make sure they are eating healthy things. There’s a little bit of dessert mixed in, but you’re not going to give them just dessert.

The house is now in the early stages of building.Six years ago, Josh and his dad went into a Habitat for Humanity Restore, a home improvement store and donation center run by the nonprofit organization. They were there to buy a sink. Josh, then 11, also noticed a collection of pennies. “I instantly felt the urge to help out with that,〞 he said. Josh set a fundraising deadline of four years. Many people doubted whether he could reach his goal of $100,000, but it didn’t shake his faith. He raised money at his school and other nearby schools. He collected money from neighbors, got publicity from local newspapers, and placed cans in stores so that people could donate extra change.Josh’s fundraising efforts began to produce results. Still, there were challenges. Four months before his deadline, he was $30,000 short. He decided to hold a Family Fun Fair and Spaghetti Dinner in Uxbridge, which is in the province of Ontario. The event raised $19,000.“I didn’t care how long it took me,〞 Josh said. “I would raise $100,000.〞With three weeks left, a company called Josh’s house, offered to donate $18,000. Eventually, Josh reached a total of $124,000 before his deadline. “The momentum just kept going, and we decided to do more,〞 he said. “Josh’s Penny House〞 is being built by Habitat for Humanity in the city of Oshawa, along with 24 new townhouses. Josh has helped with some of the construction, as have other volunteers. He will choose the family that moves into the unit.Next year, the 17-year-old will head to college in British Columbia, Canada’swesternmost province. As a 11-year-old kid when starting fundraising, Josh was able to send a powerful message across the world. No matter how old you are, if you havea dream and are willing to do anything to achieve it, it can come true.24. Which word can best describe Josh Morrison in Paragraph 2 ?A. Straightforward.B.

He got more support from the company.27. What will be the best title of the text?A. An Astonishing FundraiserB. A Boy With a Warm HeartC. Kindness From a CompanyD. The Penny House DreamCA tiny Alaska village has experienced a boom in tourism in recent years as polarbears spend more time on land than on Arctic sea ice.More than 2,000 people visited the Northern Alaska village of Kaktovik in 2021 to see polar bears in the wild. The far north community lies in an area where increasingly higher temperature has sped up the movement of sea ice, the primary habitat of polar bears. As ice has gradually moved to deep water beyond the continental shelf, more bears are remaining on land to look for food.Polar bears have always been a common sight on sea ice near Kaktovik, but villagers started noticing a change in the mid-1990s. More bears seemed to stay on land, and researchers began taking note of more female bears making home in the snow on land instead of on the ice to raise their babies. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists began hearing reports of the increasing number of polar bears in the area in the early 2000s. As more attention was given to the plight(困境) of polar bears about a decade ago, more tourists started heading to Kaktovik.The village had fewer than 50 visitors annually before 2021, said Jennifer Reed, of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. “Today we’re talking about hundreds and hundreds of visitors, many from around the world each year,〞 Reed said. Most tourists visit in the fall, when bears are forced toward land because sea ice is farthest away from the shore. Bruce Inglangasak, a local hunter who sometimes offers wildlife-viewing tours, said he’s been offering polar bear tours since 2021. Most of his clients(客户) are from China and Europe, as well as from the lower 48 U.S. states. Many tourists stay several days in the village, which has two small hotels. The villagers have benefited a lot from that. In turn, they provide more effectiveprotection for polar bears with financial support from tourism development.28. What causes more polar bears to stay on land in Kaktovia?A. Food shortage.B. Climate change.C. Habitats’ movement to shore.D. Their preference for land.29. How did common people feel about more sight of bears on land?A. Excited.B. Puzzled.C. Concerned.D. Shocked.30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Hotels in Kaktovik are in demand in autumn.B. Kaktovik has about 50 visitors annually.C. Inglangasak makes a living as a tour guide.D. Tourism affects the balance of nature.31. Which saying can describe the text?A. The fittest can survive.B. After a storm comes a calm.C. There is always opportunity in crisis.D. Every coin has two sides.DIf you have tried to ripen a piece of fruit by sticking it in a bag with a banana, you have used the power of ethylene(乙烯). Ethylene is an important plant hormone(激素). In banana and many other fruits, production of ethylene rises when the fruit is ready to ripen. This causes a hard, green, tasteless fruit to change into a soft,showy, sweet thing that’s ready-to-eat.Scientists have studied ethylene’s role in plants for more than a century and the food industry has long used the gas to control ripening. But how fruits control production of the hormone was unknown. Now scientists have found a master switch that leads the plant to start ethylene production when the time is, well, ripe.In a study published in Nature Plants, researchers found that before a fruit is ready to ripen, this master switch prevents ripening-related genes from being turned on before it’s time.Turning on the master switch “is like breaking the glass on a fire alarm,〞says study co-author James Giovannoni, a scientist at Cornell University. “Once you hit the switch, things really start happening.〞 The switch is important because ripening too early can have disastrous consequences for the plant--- it might miss its chance to reproduce.When the plant hits the ripening switch, some genes become active. This finally makes the fruit ready-to-eat. In some fruits, turning the ripening switch also leads to activation of machinery for making ethylene. Ripening fruit doesn’t happen in a moment; it happens over time. Once the fruit starts producing ethylene, the hormone turns on everything that needs to be turned on, keeping or even speeding up the ripening process. We now know that for fruits like apples, bananas, pears and tomatoes, this happens when the master switch is pressed. For fruits that ignore ethylene, like grapes, pineapples and many berries, the bag trick won’t work.32. Which of the following is responsible for ripening fruit?A. A group of hormones in a plant.B. The physical change of a plant.C. A kind of liquid in a plant .D. Certain genes in a plant.33. Why does Giovannoni make the comparison in Paragraph 4?A. To explain the key role of the master switch.B. To explain the advantages of the master switch.C. To show the process of studying the master switch.D. To show the difficulty of turning on the master switch.34. What happens after the master switch is turned on?A. The fruit stops the ripening process.B. The fruit becomes ripe very quickly.C. The plant begins to produce ethylene.D. The plant misses its chance to reproduce.35. What is the purpose of the text?A. To solve a problem.B. To make a prediction.C. To give a practical advice.D. To present a research finding.第二节〔一共5小题；每一小题2分，满分是10分〕根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

But for Andrew, a herder at a farm in Zimbabwe, it's not a problem. Once he spo ts Toro, he knows the rest of the herd is nearby. That’s because Toro isn’t an ordinary member of the herd. He's a giraffe. In hot weather, cattle rest in the shade under his belly. And because of his height, Toro can spot lions long before they come close to the herd.Toro's unusual situation came about after his mother was killed by lions. Toro survived the attack, but he was left with no one to protect him or give him milk. About two days later, some herders spotted and rescued him. With the permission of the Department of Wildlife, the herders moved Toro to Andrew's farm. Since giraffes and cattle are both plant-eating animals that live in groups, their behaviors are much the same. Toro was accepted into the herd and wandered among the cattle as they ate grass.Toro doesn't always behave like the other members of his new herd. Like many kinds of animals, cattle compete for dominance (支配). Standing more than 13 feet tall, Toro is more than three times taller than the biggest bull, But Toro never tries to be ''the boss. ''He is very used to their company, '' Andrew said. When the herd enters the kraal (家畜栏), the cows and bulls push each other. ''But thanks to his height, Toro does not need to join the mess, '' said Andrew.When asked if Toro would ever be returned to the wild, Munetsi, an officer of the Department of Wildlife said no. ''In the wild, he would find it difficult to be accepted into another herd or defend himself from predators (猎食者),'' he added. ''He seems very much at home and is respected by the cattle.''21. What was Toro like when the herders found him?A. He was left alone.B. He was seriously ill.C. He was lost in the bush.D. He was fighting with lions.22. What do we know about Toro in the cattle herd?A. He has fought to be the leader.B. He gets along well with the herd.C. He is pushed around by the bulls.D. He stays away from the herd most of the time23. What will happen to Toro according to Munetsi?A. He will be sent back to the wild.B. He will be put into another herd of giraffes.C. He will continue to live together with Andrew.D. He will be trained to fight with the big animals.24. What may be the best title for the text?A. Giraffes under threat in the wildB. A surprising new family for a giraffeC. A new way of herding appearing in AfricaD. Moments showing friendship between animalsBWhen Faith Wanjiku graduated from the Technical University of Kenya last year, she immediately enrolled (注册) at the Confucius Institute in Kenyatta University. She wanted to learn Chinese, as she believed that it would help her land a good job.She has just completed the hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) 3 exam. HSK is a test of Chinese language level fornon-native speakers, organized by the Confucius Institute Headquarters.However, this level isn’t enough for Wanjiku, who plans to pass HSK 6. She wanted to increase her level of Chinese and improve her spoken Chinese. And Wanjiku isn’t alone. The number of people taking the HSK reached 6.8 million in 2018 and went up 4.6 percent from a year earlier, the Ministry of Education said on May 31.Chinese is becoming an increasingly popular choice of language to study around the world. Currently, middle school students in Russia can take Chinese as an elective language test in the country’s national colleg e entrance exam, Sputnik News reported.In May, Zambia became the fourth country in Africa-after Kenya, Uganda and South Africa—to introduce Chinese language to its schools.And many English-speaking countries have shown an interest in allowing their students to learn Chinese. The US government announced the launch of “1 Million Strong” in 2015, a plan that aims to bring the total number of learners of Chinese to l million by 2020.Behind the growing popularity of Chinese language learning is the internatio nal community’s positive attitude toward Chinas future development, as well as the people’s longing to learn about Chinese civilization and culture.Indeed, it’s as the former president of South Africa Nelson Mandela put it, “if you talk to a man in a lang uage he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.”25. What did Wanjiku do after graduating from university?A. She went abroad.B. She learned Chinese.C. She found a job.D. She travelled to China.26. HSK is a test for ______.A. non-native speakersB. native speakersC. middle school studentsD. college students27. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. Wangjiku has lots of friends.B. Lots of people want to pass HSK6 exam.C. Wangjiku has passed HSK3 exam.D. Many people want to live in China.28. What may be the best title for the text?A. Chinese Language Study Takes OffB. Chinese Play an Important Role in EconomyC.People Share the Experience of Learning ChineseD. Different Opinions about the Function of Chinese C Australia and New Zealand’s health organizations have given their advice on when to use sunscreen (防晒霜),suggesting Australians apply it every day to avoid bad health effects.A Sunscreen Summit took place in the Australian State of Queensland. During the summit, representatives from some of Australia’s leading research, medical and public health organizations examined the evidence on sunscreen use and determined that in most parts of the country it is beneficial to apply sunscreen every day.“Up until now, public health organizations have recommended applying sunscreen ahead of planned outdoor activities but haven t recommended applying it every day as part of a morning routine (惯例),” professor Rachel Neale from QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute said. “In recent years, it has become clear that the DNA damage causes skin cancer and melanoma(黑色素瘤), which is caused by repeated small exposure to sunlight over a period of time,” Neale said. “In Australia, we get a lot of sun exposure from everyday activities such as alking to the bus stop or train station,” Neale said.A study showed that one in two Australians believed it was unhealthy and potentially dangerous to use sunscreen every day. However, Terry Slevin from the Public Health Association of Australia says it is wrong. “There is consistent and compelling evidence that sunscreens are safe,” Slevin said. “Importantly, medical trials have found that people who use sunscreen daily have the same levels of vitamin d as those w ho don’t,” Slevin added.Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world which is made worse by the country’s close to Antarctica where there is a hole in the ozone layer (臭氧层), letting in higher numbers of UV rays.29. What made Australian health organizations advise Australians to use sunscreen?A. The makers of sunscreen.B. Australian government.C.The Sunscreen Summit.D. New Zealand’s researchers.30. What is not recommended before the Sunscreen Summit? A. Using sunscreen before outdoor activities. B. Using sunscreen as a morning routine. C. Reducing the use of sunscreen. D. Reducing outdoor activities.31. What is the misunderstanding of many Australians?A. People using sunscreen won’t have skin cancer.B.Sunscreen will never take effect.C. People using sunscreen have the same levels of vitaminD. D. Sunscreen is bad for people’s health.32. Which of the following best explains “compelling” underlined in paragraph 4?A.Interesting. B. Disappointing. C. Boring. D. Convincing. D Scientists blame greenhouse gases for being a major cause of climate change around the world. This is becausegreenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere and make the planet warmer.Now, a team of researchers has announced a successful experiment that turned carbon dioxide into useful liquid fuel. The researchers created a device, called a reactor, which changes bon dioxide into a pure form of formic acid(甲酸). Formic acid is a substance (物质) found in ants and some other insects, as well as in many plants. It is used as an antibacterial material and in the processing of some kinds of clothing.Haotian Wang led the research team. He said in a statement that the results of the experiment were important because formic acid is a major carrier of energy. So, the substance can provide a way to reuse carbon dioxide and prevent it from being released into the atmosphere. “It’s a fuel-cell fuel that can generate electricity and send out carbon dioxide which you can grab and recycle again,” Wang said.“Other methods for turning carbon dioxide into formic acid require intense purification processes,” Wang said. Such methods are very costly and require a lot of energy. The Rice University team said it was able to reduce the number of steps in the traditional process to create a low-cost, energy-saving method.The researchers reported the reactor device performed with a conversion rate (转化率) of 42 percent. This means that nearly half of the electrical energy can be stored in formic acid as liquid fuel. The team said the reactor was able to create formic acid continuously for 100 hours with little degradation (退化) of the device’s parts.Wang said the reactor could easily be used to produce other high-value products, including alcohol-based fuels. The researchers noted that the technology could also be a big help in solving another major energy problem—how to store large amounts of power in small places.33. What factor is the main cause of climate change?A. Greenhouse gases.B. Chemistry waste.C. Formic acid.D. Liquid fuel.34. What do we know about formic acid?A. It is a large amount of power.B. It can be found in ants.C. It is high- value equipment.D. It is a substance in clothing.35. What is Wang’s attitude towards his own research?A. Doubtful.B. Aggressive.C. Optimistic.D. Uncaring.36. In what magazine can you read this text?A. A travel magazine.B. A sports magazine.C. A music magazine.D. A science magazine.EThe 2016 Rio Olympic Games have come to an end. Without doubt, many Chinese sports fans sat in front of the TV and cheered our athletes on, hoping that they would get as many gold medals as possible.But sometimes our desire for gold medals can result in the sadness of failure. When Liu Xiang, China’s track hero, pulled out of the Beijing Olympics due to injury, he greatly disappointed many Chinese sports fans.But things are different now. In the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, we saw a healthier Chinese attitude towards the sports people, fully in line with the Olympic spirit.China didn’t win any gold medals o n the first day. But, instead of criticizing(批评) the athletes who failed to win, most of the fans were happy with their efforts. “Looking at the results in the right way when an athlete misses out on gold shows the maturity(成熟) of a person, and is also a challenge for a country to face up to in the process of development,” commented CRI.Swimmer Fu Yuanhui won fans’ hearts, even if she only won the third place in the 100m backstroke final. Her fans on her Sina Weibo have increased 100,000 to over 6 million. Many sports fans appreciated her straightforward character and attitude towards competitions.“The warm support from Internet users shows that public attitude towards competitive sports and the Olympics has gotten to a higher level”, said an article in the People’s Daily.37. What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. Gold medals can also cause sadness.B. Liu Xiang always disappoints his fans.C. Fans have high expectations of Liu Xiang.D. Liu Xiang got injured before the Olympics.38. What is people’s attitu de now towards the athletes who failed?A. Interested.B. Understanding.C. Angry.D. Disappointed.39. What makes people like Fu Yuanhui?A. Her Sina Weibo.B. Her kindness to the fans.C. Her attitude to competitions.D. Her winning a gold medal.40. What does the author mainly want to tell us in this passage?A. Winning gold medals is important.B. Changing attitude to athletes is a must.C. Results are not important in the competition.D. Peoples’ attitude towards competitive sports is healthier.三、七选五（共5小题，每道题2分，共10分）After a long day at work, coming home is a breath of fresh air. ____41____ However, is it as healthy as it can be?
