AWhen I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Someti mes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with(忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he aske d, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you’ll find itwill be helpful to you. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.”Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure(珍惜) all your life!1. What did the writer’s father do after he heard her complaints(抱怨)?A. He agreed with her “enemy”.B. He told her to write down all her “enemy” had said about her.C. He le t her continue to put up with her “enemy”.D. He told her not to pay attention to what her “enemy” had said.2. The writer felt ______ when she did the things as her father had told her.A. surprisedB. angryC. disappointedD. sad3. Which of the following can we know from the passage?A. The “enemy” thought the writer was pretty.B. The “enemy” thought the writer studied hard.C. The writer and her “enemy” became best friends at last.D. The writer is grateful to her father.4. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. My ParentsB. A Serious Criticism(批评)C. What People Say About You Is Always RightD. The Best Advice I Ever HadBLet us suppose it is now about A.D. 2060. Let’s make believe (假装;虚构) it is about fifty years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. The hotels are air-conditioned, naturally. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment (娱乐) of young and old.What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven’t yet started to take on heir (继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet’s surface has to befilled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.People are now largely vegetarians (素食者). You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animal decreases. Therefore, the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more. Such would be our life in 2060.5. When was the passage written?A. In about A.D. 2060.B. In about 1960.C. In about 2014.D. In about 2010.6. According to the passage, what will be on the moon in about A.D. 2060?A.Many other animals.B.Many plants.C. Many tourists.D.A sea.7. What will people eat then according to the passage?A. Foods in pill form.B.Biscuits in pill form.C .Foods in water form. D. Foods in gas form.8. The passage tells us that in 2060, ____ on the earth than now.A. there are fewer populationB. there are more pestsC. the crops are getting betterD.there is less waterCLondon will host a major exhibition(展览) of 15th-century Chinese artwork, including paintings, sculptures (雕塑)and porcelain, which are all from Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).The exhibition will be open from Sept 18 to Jan 5. On display will be 108 cultural relics from 10 museums in China, as well as collections from the British Museum and museums in Japan, the United States and Europe. The exhibition will be in five parts to give an overview of the society. "This was a time when the political and social system of the dynasty became stable(稳定), and the country also experienced huge changes. China was in frequent contact with the rest of the world at that time, and its artists and scholars also influenced other cultures," said Yao Yu, the director of this activity. During this time, Beijing became the capital of China, and Zheng He (1371-1433) set sail and reached the shores of eastern Africa.Jessica from the British Museum, said "reading" an artwork may differ in different cultures. "When a Chinese audience sees a painting you see figures and stories. But we see beautiful views. " However, she added that the British public had a basic knowledge of the dynasty and many British people probably knew more about the later period of the Ming Dynasty after the Portuguese and Spanish came to China to trade. Theirhouses and dining tables have Chinese blue and white vases but they don’t know much about the earlier period, which in China was a more culturally important period."We’d like to take away people fr om the idea that China became international after the Europeans arrived. China in the early Ming Dynasty was very international. "9. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. An important exhibition.B. Museums in London.C. Artworks from China.D. Ming Dynasty in China.10.

Zheng He sailed to the shores of eastern Africa.D. Ming Dynasty started from 1368 and came to an end in 1433.12. What can we know from Jessica?A. British people have a good knowledge of the Ming Dynasty.B. British citizens know more about the later period of the Ming Dynasty than the earlier ones.C. British and Spanish came to trade in Ming Dynasty.D. The later period of the Ming Dynasty is a more culturally important period in China.DWelcome to the Electronic Village to explore new ways of language teaching and learning.13. Nearpod can be used to ______.A. offer grammar testsB. teach listening on-lineC. help vocabulary learningD. gain fluency in speaking14.

沈阳铁路实验中学2017-2018学年度下学期第二次月考高一英语时间:100 分钟,满分:120 分,第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30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.AI have recently completed my college degree. The last project was called “smile”. The class was asked to go out to smile at three people and document their reactions. I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake.My husband, the youngest son and I went out to McDonald’s. We were standing in line when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away. As I turned around I smelled a horrible body odour (气味) and saw two poor homeless men standing behind me. As I looked at the short blue-eyed gentleman closest to me, he was “smiling”. The second man fumbled(摸索) with his hands as he stood behind his friend.The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted. He said, “ Coffee, is all, Miss,” because that was all they could afford.Then I really felt it - I embraced(拥抱)the little man with the blue eyes. That was when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked two more breakfast meals on and gave them to the men.The blue-eyed gentleman looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”I turned in my project. My teacher said, “Can I share this?” I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and that was when I knew that we as human beings should share this need to heal people and to be healed.In my own way I had touched the people at McDonald’s and every soul that heard the story in teh classroom. But, I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn.1.The underlined part “a piece of cake” in Paragraph 1 means ________.A. easyB. embarrassingC. movingD. comfortable2.Why did people around the author in the McDonald’s step back?A. Because they were very polite to the two men.B. Because they were moved by the two men.C. Because the two men smelt terrible.D. Because the two men seemed unfriendly.3.Why did the two men only buy coffee?A. Because they didn’t have enough money.B. Because they didn’t feel hungry.C. Because they knew others would help them.D. Because they were looked down upon.4.How did the teacher think of the author’s project?A. Hard to believe.B. Interesting to read.C. Very puzzling.D. Very satisfying.BDespite being tall, Michelle Obama is much smaller than she appears on television. And she seemed a little short by her surroundings in the great hall of Christchurch College as she spoke quietly without a microphone because of a technical mistake. Her audience were 40 young girls from a London state school where 50 languages are spoken.“I remember how well-meaning but misguided people questioned whether someone with my background could succeed at an elite university,”she said. “When I was accepted I had all kinds of worries and doubts, Iwouldn’t be as well prepared as students from privileged families and I wouldn't fit in. But you are just as capable and have just as much to offer as anyone else.”This was Mrs Obama’s only solo outing during the state visit and part two of an unusual relationship which she has struck up with Anderson College in Islington. Two years ago on her first visit to the UK she visited the school.”Yesterday she returned to meet the pupils but this time at Christchurch College where they were taking part in an open day run to improve Oxford’s still poor record on diversifying student intake.Mrs Obama was asked why she married her husband, what it was like being First Lady and when there would be a female President in the White House. Her message which she repeated time and again was working hard, having self-belief, and not being afraid to fail.It was very un-British, but rather effective. Afterwards there were hugs for everyone and a photo with her.And watching the group of multi-cultural young Briton’s surround her among the splendor of the college building two thoughts stood out.5.Why did Michelle Obama not use a microphone during her speech?A. Something was wrong with the microphone.B. There was lack of equipment.C. She wanted to speak quietly to them.D. She had a loud and good voice.6.We can learn from the text that Michelle Obama ________.A. graduated from Anderson CollegeB. paid her first visit to the UK this timeC. was confident when she studied in collegeD. was from a family without good background7.We can infer from the text that these 40 young girls _______.A. were all from the United StatesB. were the students of Oxford UniversityC. came from different cultural back groundsD. stayed with Mrs Obama because of hard work8.Which of the following is excluded from what Michelle Obama has repeated in the speech?A. Working hard.B. Helping others.C. Having self-belief.D. Not being afraid to fail.CSHANGHAI: China’s economic center will replace London as the world’s second-largest economic center after New York in 10 years, according to a recent survey conducted by law firm Eversheds.The survey, which interviewed 600 senior business decision-makers in the cities of London, Mumbai, New York, Shanghai and the United Arab Emirates, showed that London was facing a challenge from Shanghai in terms of its economic role in the world.Most of them said New York would continue to hold the top position as the most important economic center.According to London-based Eversheds, 91 percent of senior business people in Shanghai are confident of their economic future over the next 12 months, mainly based on signs of growth in business, while in London only 22 percent are confident, the lowest figure among the five cities.The report showed that 87 percent of business leaders across the world said the crisis has changed the structure of the world economy, and the established economic centers of the West face a growing challenge from the new economies of the East.China, ahead of the US and Europe, has had signs of a recovery from the economic crisis. In March the Chinese government decided to try to turn Shanghai into an international economic center by the end of 2020.“There’s little doubt that Shanghai would become a world’s important economic center within the next decade if the Chinese economy will become NO.1 or NO. 2 in the world and because of the growing value of the yuan,” said Hubert Tse, managing director and head of international business at law firm Yuan Tat.“Shanghai’s becoming a world’s economic center is affected by when the yuan can be exchanged freely and whether effective laws would be put in place,” Tse said.9.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Businessmen in London are least confident of their economic future among the five cities surveyed.B. The economic development of the established economic centers of the West has slowed down due to the crisis.C. Chinese economy will surely become NO. 1 in the world by the end of 2020.D. China has shown signs of recovery from crisis earlier than the US and Europe.10.All of the following will make Shanghai a world’s economic center except ______.A. Chinese early economic recovery from crisisB. the growing value and free exchange of the yuanC. effective laws to be madeD. businessmen’s confidence in Shanghai11.What does the passage mainly deal with?A. People are confident in Chinese economy.B. Shanghai will become the second-largest economic center instead of London.C. New York remains to be the most important economic center.D. The structure of the world economy has been changed completely.DIn the past, many people depended on horses for transportation, farming and other kinds of work. A lot of people still like to ride horses. And, horse racing is also popular. So it is not surprising that Americans still use expressions about the animals.Long ago, people who were rich or important rode horses that were very tall. Today, if a girl acts like she is better than everyone else, you might say she should get off her high horse.We live in a small town. It does not have any exciting activities to offer visitors. My children call it a one-horse town.Last night, I got a telephone call while I was watching my favorite television show. I decided not to answer it because wild horses could not drag me away from the television. There was nothing that could stop me from doing what I wanted to do.You may have heard this expression: you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink. That means you can give someone advice but you cannot force him to do something he does not want to do.Sometimes a person fights a battle that has been decided or keeps arguing a question that has been settled. We say this is like beating a dead horse.Another piece of advice is, do not change horses in midstream. You would not want to get off one horse and on to another in the middle of a river, or make major changes in an activity that has already begun. In the past, this expression was used as an argument to re-elect a president, especially during a time when the country was at war.12.The text is mainly concerned with ________.A. some expressions about horsesB. people’s great interest in horsesC. horses’ influence on people’s lifeD. the author’s attitude towards horses13.The phrase “ get off one’s high horse” in the second paragraph is used to ________.A. persuade others to be modestB. remind others of their successC. encourage others to do betterD. advise others to stop one thing14.If you don’t want to be bothered by others, you can say “__________”.A. you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make me drinkB. I should never get off my high horse from now onC. wild horses cannot drag me away from the studyD. I am studying so hard to beat a dead horse15.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. A wild horse refers to something that people are interested in.B. A dead horse refers to something that people have decided.C. A black horse refers to someone who is working hard.D. A one-horse town refers to a very active town.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

辽宁省沈阳铁路实验中学2017~2018学年高一下学期6月月考英语试题(时间:100分钟分数:120分)本试卷分第I卷(选择题)和第II卷(非选择题)两部分。

考试结束,将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。

第Ⅰ卷第一部分: 阅读理解 (共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AHow you move and gesture says as much about you as what comes out of your mouth.Jenny Smith, 34, an assistant vice-president at a bank in New York, was interviewing candidates (应考生) for a position which required a person with good communication skills.One candidate in particular stood out, but not in a good way. While she could have been very intelligent, her body language sent out very different messages. Her handshake was more of a finger shaker, and her eye contact was weak.To Jenny, what the candidate said didn’t matter because her body language said everything: she wasn’t suitable for the positi on. The candidate may have been quite appropriate(合适的), but she didn’t manage to get that across. So our body language may not do us justice. But there are some signals which are very common and are worth a thousand words.For example, a handshake can say much more than “hello, nice to meet you”. The most important part of a handshake is palm-to-palm contact. It’s even more important than how strong your handshake is. The palm-to-palm contact makes people seem honest: it seems to say “I am sincere(真诚的)”. A weak handshake—when the palms don’t touch —makes you seem unfriendly, insincere.But people sometimes use body language to give each other the wrong impression. Somebody who has a firm handshake may be pretending to be sincere, and somebody with a weak handshake may just be a bit shy and nothing more.Body language can also be overdone. While eye contact gives an impression offriendliness, too much eye contact or eye contact which is too intense(极为强烈的)can make people feel uncomfortable.1.The candidate for the job failed because _______.A.She wasn’t clever enoughB. she used improper body languageC. she said the wrong thingsD. she expressed a bad attitude2.When you shake someone’s hand you should ______.A.hold his hand with great strengthB. make frequent eye contactC. say something sincereD. make good contact with their hand3.According to the sixth paragraph, our body language _______.A.may give other people the false ideaB.B. is much more important than what you sayC. tells other people what you are really likeD. are ignored by most people4.What is the main purpose of the text?A.To help readers get a better jobB. To show why handshakes are importantC. To introduce body language to readers.D. To explain what the right communication skills areBThe idea for traffic lights began in the 1800s when a system was required to controlthe ever-increasing flow of horse-drawn traffic. In 1868, in London, a signal was installed (安装) at the crossing of George Street and Bridge Street, near Parliament.This provided walkers a safe crossing.The system contained a semaphore—a tall post with moveable arms. When the arms were positioned sideways it meant stop. After dark, a gas light was lit at the top.The green colored glass meant go, while red meant stop. At first, signals were controlled by hand, with officers deciding when the signals should be changed according to traffic flow. They’ve blow a whistle to warn drivers that the signa lwas going to change.However, in 1869, a traffic signal exploded following a leak (泄露) in one ofthe gas lines below, severely injuring the policeman operating it. This led to thesemaphore project being dropped in London.Then in Utah in 1912, Policeman Lester Wire developed the first electric light system with red and green lights. Two years later, the first electric signal was installed in Cleveland. It was based on a design by James Hoge and allowed the police and firefighters to control the signals in case of emergencies.In Detroit, William Potts, also a police officer, looked to adapt railroad signals to be used on streets and developed a system with red, yellowish brown and green lights. He made the first four-way three colored traffic system, and it was installed on the Wood ward and Michigan Avenues in Detroit in 1920. A year later there were 15 automatic(自动的) light systems.The first electric traffic lights to be installed in England were in Piccadilly Circus in 1926.

Certain personality types may not get along and living together for a long time could cause them to argue.By studying people living in similar conditions here on Earth, NASA hopes to learn how to choose the best people for a space mission, and how to help them get along.The crew(全体机组人员) will live in a two-story dome-shaped building. The dome is located in an area about 2400 metres up the side of Mauna Loa, the second biggest volcano in the world. Mauna Loa is an active volcano, but it has not erupted since 1984. It is monitored all the time for signs of volcanic activity.

AWhen I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with(忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be helpful to you. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.”Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure(珍惜) all your life!1. What did the writer’s father do after he heard her complaints(抱怨)?A. He agreed with her “enemy”.B. He told her to write down all her “enemy” had said about her.C.

Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. My ParentsB. A Serious Criticism(批评)C. What People Say About You Is Always RightD. The Best Advice I Ever HadBLet us suppose it is now about A.D. 2060. Let’s make believe (假装;虚构) it is about fifty years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moontoday as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. The hotels are air-conditioned, naturally. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment (娱乐) of young and old.What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven’t yet started to take on heir (继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet’s surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.People are now largely vegetarians (素食者). You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animal decreases. Therefore, the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more.Such would be our life in 2060.5. When was the passage written?A. In about A.D. 2060.B. In about 1960.C. In about 2014.D. In about 2010.6.

On display will be 108 cultural relics from 10 museums in China, as well as collections from the British Museum and museums in Japan, the United States and Europe. The exhibition will be in five parts to give an overview of the society."This was a time when the political and social system of the dynasty became stable(稳定), and the country also experienced huge changes. China was in frequent contact with the rest of the world at that time, and its artists and scholars also influenced other cultures," said Yao Yu, the director of this activity. During this time, Beijing became the capital of China, and Zheng He (1371-1433) set sail and reached the shores of eastern Africa.Jessica from the British Museum, said "reading" an artwork may differ in different cultures. "When a Chinese audience sees a painting you see figures and stories. But we see beautiful views. " However, she added that the British public had a basic knowledge of the dynasty and many British people probably knew more about the later period of the Ming Dynasty after the Portuguese and Spanish came to China to trade. Their houses and dining tables have Chinese blueand white vases bu t they don’t know much about the earlier period, which in China was a more culturally important period."We’d like to take away people from the idea that China became international after the Europeans arrived.
