【1题详解】考查定语从句。

句意：但生活中有一个方面是讲故事永远无法重现的。

分析句子结构可知此处为定语从句，主句以there be开头，先行词为物，且从句中缺少reproduce的宾语时常用that或which引导定语从句，故填that。

【2题详解】考查时态语态。

句意：我们作为个体是由我们所做的选择所定义的。

individuals 与define之间是被动关系，且为一般情况，所以用一般现在时的被动语态，故填are defined。

【3题详解】考查非谓语动词。

句意：作为一个互动的作家，我着迷于在小说中再现这种选择的概念，我试着让读者站在主要人物的立场上思考。

be fascinated with表示“着迷于”，此处去掉be作状语，故填fascinated。

【4题详解】考查非谓语动词。

句意：探索实现这一目标的方法是我过去20年里一直所做的事情。

此处用动名词作主语，故填Exploring。

【5题详解】考查宾语从句。

句意：你知道作为互动作家我的工作是什么吗？此处为跟在of后的宾语从句，从句中的about缺少宾语，故填what。

【6题详解】考查同位语从句。

句意：我需要考虑角色在给定场景中遇到不同的人和事的所有可能性，并试着想象可能发生的一切。

分析句子结构可知，此处为同位语从句，从句结构完整，用that解释说明possibilities的内容，故填that。

【7题详解】考查情态动词。

句意参考上题解析，根据句意可知此处表示“可能”，故填may。

【8题详解】考查连词。

句意：互动作家的经历是非常独特的，因为它是创作叙事场景的作家和做出自己的决定的玩家之间合作的结果。

前后是因果关系，此处表示原因，故填because。

Section B 9%Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be usedonce. Note that there is one word more than you need.The brain is a seemingly endless library, whose shelves house our most precious memories. To allow new memories to form, old information is sometimes pushed out of the brain.Previous studies have shown that learning new information can lead to ____9____. But in a new study, researchers showed for the first time how this effect ____10____ in the brain.In daily life, forgetting actually has clear ____11____. Imagine, for instance, that you lost your bank card. The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number (PIN). Each time you remember the new PIN, you gradually forget the old one. This process improves access to ____12____ information, without old memories interfering.And most of us may sometimes feel ____13____ when old memories interfere with new, relevant memories. Consider trying to remember where you parked your car in the same car park you were at a week earlier. This type of memory is particularly interfering.When we get new information, the brain automatically tries to combine it with existing information by ____14____ associations. And when we retrieve（检索）information, both the desired and ____15____ but irrelevant information is recalled.The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information. But current studies are beginning to put greater ____16____ on the conditions under which we forget, as its importance begins to be more appreciated.A very small number of people are able to remember almost every detail of their life. Though it may sound like an advantage to many, people with this rare condition often find their ____17____ ability troublesome. In a sense, normal forgetting may help to ensure our brain doesn’t become too full.【答案】9. D 10. G11. F 12. H13. B 14. E15. A 16. C17. J【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在一项新的研究中，研究人员首次展示了学习新信息会导致遗忘这种效应是如何在大脑中发生的。

上海交通大学附属中学2018学年度第二学期高一英语期中试卷第I卷Ⅱ. Grammar and Vocabulary (28’+10’+10”)Section ADirections: Beneath each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one answer that best completes the sentence.1.________ has been done to develop the habit of reading aloud in the morning, his pronunciation remains a serious problem.A. In spite of thatB. Despite whatC. Although heD. Though what【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查介词和连接代词。

句意：尽管已经采取了措施来培养早晨大声朗读的习惯，但是他的发音仍然是个严重的问题。

分析句子可知，despite为介词后接宾语从句作宾语，宾语从句中缺少主语，所以由连词代词what来充当宾语从句的主语。

故选B项。

2.________ is the centre of our planetary system was a difficult concept to grasp in the Middle Ages.A. It’s the sun and not the earthB. The sun and not the earthC. Being the sun and not the earthD. That the sun and not the earth 【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查主语从句。

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.2．（9分）The brain is a seemingly endless library，whose shelves house our most precious memories．To allow new memories to form，old information is sometimes pushed out of the brain．Previous studies have shown that learning new information can lead to （1）．But in a new study，researchers showed for the first time how this effect （2）in the brain．In daily life，forgetting actually has clear （3）．Imagine，for instance，that you lost your bank card．The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number （PIN）．Each time you remember the new PIN，you gradually forget the old one．This process improves access to （4）information，without old memories interfering．And most of us may sometimes feel （5）when old memories interfere with new，relevant memories．Consider trying to remember where you parked your car in the same car park you were at a week earlier．This type of memory is particularly interfering．When we get new information，the brain automatically tries to combine it with existing information by （6）associations．And when we retrieve（检索）information，both the desired and （7）but irrelevant information is recalled．The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information．But current studies are beginning to put greater （8）on the conditions under which we forget，as its importance begins to be more appreciated．A very small number of people are able to remember almost every detail of theirlife．Though it may sound like an advantage to many，people with this rare condition often find their （9）ability troublesome．In a sense，normal forgetting may help to ensure our brain doesn't become too full．Ⅲ.

He wanted so badly to be considered cool that he begged his mother to buy him an expensive Italian shirt.“My mother made me a deal,” Carson remembers.“ She said, ‘I'll give you all the money I make next week. You'll be in charge of the family finances—buying food and other necessities and paying the bills. Whatever you have left over you can spend on whatever you want.’”“I Thought, this is going to be great,” Carson says.“ I bought tings we needed most and then began going through the bills. Of course I ran completely out of money long before everything was paid.”“The I realized my mother, with her third-grade education, was a financial genius—just to keep food on our table and clothes on our backs with such a small sum of money. I'd been a fool. I wanted her to buy me a 75shirtwhensheonlytookhome 100 a week, cleaning other people's floors and washing their toilets. I took a hard look at my behavior and wondered how I could be so selfish.”“I started studying again. My grades went back up to A's. S ome of my peers laughed at me because I did not follow their pattern. But I refused to let that trouble me, because I had a goal.”The experience had a lasting effect. “ I not only saw and felt the difference my mother madein my life, but I am living out that difference as a man.”53. By saying “My mother made me a deal”, Ben Carson meant that his mother .A. refused to buy him the shirtB. made an agreement with himC. asked him to deal with the problemD. showed him how to save money54. Ben Carson started studying hard again and rose back to the top because .A. he had got his shirt anywayB. he got his mother as his teacherC. he wanted to be a financial geniusD. he had a better goal to run after55. Ben Carson's story tells us that .A. a boy should not learn from his peersB. he didn't understand his mother as a boyC. what his mother taught him has changed his lifeD. people with little education may become a genius【答案】53-55 B D C(B)For high school leavers starting out in the working world, it is very important to learn particular skills and practice how to behave in an interview or how to find an internship （实习）.In some countries, schools have programs to help students onto the path to work. In the United States, however, such programs are still few and far behind.Research shows that if high schools provide career-related courses, students are likely to get higherearnings in later years. The students are more likely to stay in school, graduate and go on to higher education. In Germany, students as young as 13and 14are expected to do internships. German companies work with schools to make sure that young people get the education they need for future employment.But in America, education reform programs focus on how well students do in exams instead of bringing them into contact with the working world. Harvard Education school professor Robert Schwartz has criticized education reformers for trying to place all graduates directly on thefour-year college track. Schwartz argued that this approach leaves the country's most vulnerable （易受影响的）kids with no jobs and no skills.Schwartz believed that the best career programs encourage kids to go for higher education while also teach them valuable practical skills at high school. James Madison High School in New York, for example, encourages students to choose classes on career-based courses. The school then helps them gain on-the-job experience in those fields while they're still at high school.However, even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work, the job market is daunting. In the US, unemployment rates for 16-to-19-year-olds are above 20percent for the third summer in a row."The risk is that if teenagers miss out on the summer job experience, they will become part of this generation of teens who had trouble in landing a job, "said Michael, a researcher in the US.56.According to Robert Schwartz, high school students should.A. directly carry on higher educationB. get contact with the working worldC. focus on their performance in examsD. not miss out on the summer job experience57. What can be inferred from the text?A. Unemployment rates for US teenagers remain high at the momentB. Students with career-based courses never have problems finding a jobC. US companies work with schools to prepare young people for future employmentD. High school graduates with no practical skills can’t find a job58.The underlined word "daunting" in Paragraph 6 most probably meanA. discouragingB. interestingC. unbelievableD. acceptable59.What's the main idea of the text？A. Arguments about recent US high school education reformB. Tips on finding jobs for high school graduatesC. The lack of career-based education in US high schools.D. Advice for American high school graduates【答案】56-59 BAACSection CDirections:Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A．Later I received 50 cents an hour.B．I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.C．Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.D．My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility.E．Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.F．Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收银台)in her general store. Before long, she let me sit there by myself.I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you”.At first I was paid in candy. 60I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a. m. to 7 p. m. . My father helped me set up a bank account. 61By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women wo uld ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear? ”I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wantedThe job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be apurchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.【答案】60-63 AFBCTranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.64.我打过电话给Tony了，提醒他我们上午8点在学校大门口碰面。

If you have any of these symptoms, your stress might be making you sick. Here’s how to battle against them.If you’ve never suffered from headaches but suddenly your head is constantly striking, you might be too stressed.

Practise closing your eyes and breathing in and out slowly, concentrating only on your breath.Losing a few strands of hair is normal (old hair follicles are replaced by new ones over time), but stress can disturb that cycle.

Stress can also cause the body’s resistant system to attack your hair follicles, resulting in hair loss.WHAT TO DO:Be patient.

Was it wrong to take a picture?”“ I can’t read my own handwriting,” the young woman explained. “It’s best if I take a picture of your writing so I can understand the notes.”That remark started a class -- wide conversation about taking a picture instead of taking notes. For those in the photo - taking camp, motivations extended beyond their inability to comprehend their own handwriting. Some took pictures of notes because they knew their phone was a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, they reasoned, but they wouldn’t lose their phones. Some took photos because they wanted to record exactly the manner in which I had noted information on the board. Others told me that during class they liked to be able to listen to the discussion attentively.Yet the use of cameras as note takers, though it may be convenient, does raise significant questions for the classroom. Is a picture an effective replacement for the process of note-taking?Instructors encourage students to take notes because the act of doing so is more than merely recording necessary information -- it helps prepare the way for understanding. Encouraging students to take notes may be an old-fashion instructional method, but just because a method has a long history doesn’t mean it’s out of date. Writing things down engages a student’s brain in listening, visual, and kinesthetic（触觉的）learning --- a view supported by a longstanding research. The act of writing down information enables a person to begin committing it to memory, and to process and combine it, establishing the building blocks of learning new concepts.Taking a picture does indeed record the information, but it deletes some of the necessary mental engagement that taking notes employs. So can the two be equally effective?63. The woman apologized in the class because she _______.A. had the bad handwritingB. missed the teacher’s directionsC. took a picture of the boardD. disturbed other student’s learning64. According to the passage, which of the following may NOT explain students’ reluctance to take notes?A. They lack proper techniques for taking notes.B. They want to listen more attentively in class.C. They believe smart phones are much safer for storing notes.D. They want to have the exact version of the notes on the board.65. According to the passage, taking notes by hand_______.A. requires students to think independentlyB. helps students actively participate in learningC. proves to be an old and useless learning methodD. seems unsuitable for students to learn ne ideas.66. What I the main idea of this passage?A. The traditional way of note-taking should be replaced.B. A modern way of not-taking is catching on.C. Note-taking by hand is not out of date.D. A picture is worth a thousand words.Section CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once.

上海市浦东新区2018-2019学年下学期高一期中英语试题一、选用适当的单词或短语补全短文(★★★★) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.The brain is a seemingly endless library, whose shelves house our most precious memories. To allow new memories to form, old information is sometimes pushed out of the brain.Previous studies have shown that learning new information can lead to 1 . . But in a new study, researchers showed for the first time how this effect 2 . in the brain.In daily life, forgetting actually has clear 3 . . Imagine, for instance, that you lost your bank card. The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number (PIN). Each time you remember the new PIN, you gradually forget the old one. This process improves access to 4 . information, without old memories interfering.And most of us may sometimes feel 5 . when old memories interfere with new, relevant memories. Consider trying to remember where you parked your car in the same car park you were at a week earlier. This type of memory is particularly interfering.When we get new information, the brain automatically tries to combine it with existing information by 6 . associations. And when we retrieve（检索）information, both the desired and 7 . but irrelevant information is recalled.The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information. But current studies are beginning to put greater 8 . on the conditions under which we forget, as its importance begins to be more appreciated.A very small number of people are able to remember almost every detail of their life. Though it may sound like an advantage to many, people with this rare condition often find their 9 . ability troublesome. In a sense, normal forgetting may help to ensure our brain doesn’t become too full.二、完形填空(★★★★★) Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.In 1986, the drug company Johnson & Johnson was faced with a crisis.

Her parents aren’t poor, and she was at a private school when she started getting bullied. This made her very unhappy and she began to misbehave. She made some new friends who went clubbing a lot. Later she even took drug and stole money to buy drug. Her parents were so worried about their daughter and so angry about her behavior that they decided to send Lucy to Turn-About Ranch (TAR), a tough camp for problem teens in Utah, in the USA.Lucy didn’t like the idea of going to the ranch（牧场）in Utah, but after spending three months there, she’s changed her attitude. She said, “The staff at TAR cared about our emotional well-being but they also wanted us to be disciplined and respect the rules. They told us not to take any drugs, not even tobacco or alcohol, and they made us get up at 6.30 a.m. every day and to school work as well as jobs around the ranch. TAR is a real, working ranch with cows and horses, which we had to take care of.At TAR they asked us not to wear make-up or jewelry or use hair products. They told us that teenagers with problems often use a cool appearance as a mask to hide behind and that they needed to break down those barriers to help us look inside at the confusion which causes our problem behavior. They also wanted us to take responsibility for all our actions.”Her time there has made her more self-confident, less aggressive and much happier. She’s started a college course, she’s got a part-time job, and she’s also doing voluntary work helping underprivileged chi ldren. She hasn’t taken any drugs since she left TAR. Lucy says, “TAR made me think very hard about the friends I used to see and where my life was going. I realized that the drugs were starting to become the only thing in my life that I cared about, which meant I stopped enjoying other things and treated people badly. I ought to have realized that, and I know I shouldn’t have done a lot of thingsthat I did. The ranch has really opened my eyes. They told me to believe I could achieve something with my life, and from now on I want to try.”20 . What problem at school started to change Lucy’s behavior?A．That she made some new friends.B．That she was studying in a private school.C．That she stole money to buy drug.D．That she was bullied at school.21 . Why does TAR have rules about appearance?A．They have to do schoolwork at TAR.B．They are supposed to take care of the animals at the ranch.C．Cool appearance is the barrier to reflection on one’s inner self.D．Keeping cool appearance takes much time and money.22 . How does Lucy feel about the future now?A．Upset.B．Confused.C．Fair.D．Hopeful.(★★★★★)After I was married and had lived in Japan for a while, my Japanese gradually improved to the point where I could take part in simple conversations with my husband and his friends and family. And I began to notice that often, when I joined in, the others would look surprised, and the conversational topic would come to a stop. After this happened several times, it became clear to me that I was doing something wrong. But for a long time, I didn’t know what it was.Finally, after listening carefully to many Japanese conversations, I discovered what my problem was. Even though I was speaking Japanese, I was handling the conversation in a Western way.A Western-style conversation between two people is like a game of tennis. If I introduce a topic, a conversational ball, I expect you to hit it back. If you agree with me, I don’t expect you simply to agree and do nothing more. I expect you to add something-a reason for agreeing, another example, or a detailed explanation to carry the idea further. But I don’t expect you always to agree. I am just as happy if you question me, or challenge me, or completely disagree with me. Whether you agree or disagree, your response will return the ball to me.A Japanese-style conversation, however, is not at all like tennis or volleyball. It’s like bowling. You wait for your turn. And you always know your place in line. It depends on such things as whether youare older or younger, a close friend or a relative stranger to the previous speaker, in a senior or junior position, and so on.When your turn comes, you step up to the starting line with your bowling ball and carefully bowl it. Everyone else stands back and watches politely, murmuring encouragement. Everyone waits until the ball has reached the end of the alley（球场）and watches to see if it knocks down all the pins, or only some of them, or none of them. There is a pause, while everyone registers your score.Then, after everyone is sure that you have completely finished your turn, the next person in line steps up to the same starting line, with a different ball. He doesn’t return your ball, and he does not begin from where your ball stopped. And there is always a suitable pause between turns. There is no rush, no scramble for the ball.If you have been trained all your life to play one game, it is no simple matter to switch to another, even if you know the rules. Knowing the rules is not at all the same thing as playing the game.23 . The author makes all of the following arguments EXCEPT that _____.A．Japanese-style conversations are like bowling.B．western-style conversations are like tennis or volleyballC．in Japanese-style conversations, you must wait your turn to speakD．western-style conversations are longer than Japanese-style conversations24 . The author’s purpose in writhing this article is to _____.A．instruct B．entertainC．joke D．criticize25 . The main idea of the article is _______.A．people talk differently in Japan than in the WestB．it’s important to take part in conversationsC．talking with someone from another country proves difficultD．it’s rude to interrupt someone who is speaking四、六选四(★★★★) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box. Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need.Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they are meant to be there.They serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be : your roommate, neighbor, professor, long-lost friend, lover or even a complete stranger whom you lock eyes with. 26 .Sometimes things happen to you. 27 . But in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength and willpower. Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck.The people you meet affect your life. 28 . Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most important ones.29 . Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possible can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked before, yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself. You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your won life and then go out and live it.A．And the successes and downfalls you experience, create who you are.B．At the time they may seem horrible, painful and unfair.C．Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time.D．Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else’s.E．But you know that every moment they will affect you life in some deep way.F．Make every day count.五、概要写作(★★★★★) 30 . Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as fa as possible.The Negative Sides of Fast FoodWith today’s fast lifestyle, it is very hard to keep up with the traditional way of taking care of all human needs. Eating habits are no exception. According to an article in Success magazine(November 1994), America today eats more fast food than ever before. Ninety-six out of every one hundred Americans eat fast food on some kind of regular basis. There are many side effects related to this popular eating habit.The food sold in most fast food restaurants may not be all that good for us. Everything in the restaurant has to look, taste, and smell the same way. In order for the food to still taste fresh, a lot of chemicals have to be added. As if that were not enough, the main element that the fast food marketadvertises and competes for is not good food or fresh ingredients, but lowest prices.People who have the habit of eating fast food rarely even try to change their diet. Instead, people tend to get more and more used to the convenience and taste of fast food. According to a survey, out of every ten fast food eaters, only four will eat the same amount or less, and the other six will double their “loads” of fast food within four years; and out of every ten people who finally get to control their eating disorder, six will come back to eating fast food within six years. These alarming figures seem to be contrary to today’s convenient ways of cooking at home. Easy-to-make dishes like those for microwaves, soups etc., would appear to be the solution for the fast food problem, but obviously the real problem is not the trouble of cooking at home, but the addicting simplicity of fast food.___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________六、汉译英(★★★★) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English using the words given in brackets.31 . 他否认参与了这次活动。
