AWildanimals are our friends, but many of them are getting fewer a nd fewer. We should try to protect them. The four animals bel ow are now in danger.Tibe AntetanlopseTibetan antelopes (藏羚羊) are medium-sized animals. They mainly feed on grass. They are usually fo und in groups of about 20. They are killed for their wool, whic h is warm, soft and fine and can be made into expensive clothes. Although people can get th e wool without killing the animals, people simply kill them befo re taking the wool. The number of them is dropping year by ye ar. There are less than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world, down f rom a million 50 years ago.Golden MonkeysGolden monkeys are mainly found in Sichuan, Gansu, Shanxi provinces and Shengnongjia mountainous area of Hubei Province. Golden monkeys hav e golden-orange fur. They move around in the daytime, usually in grou ps of as many as 100 to 200 heads, or 20 to 30 heads. They f eed on fruits and young leaves of bamboos. But people are d estroying the environment where they live. Trees and bamboo s are disappearing, so golden monkeys have less and less to eat.ElephantsElephants are very big and strong .They are bigger than any other animals on land. They are gr ey and have long trunks and tusks. They have poor eyesight, but very good hearing and smell. They can lift heavy things and break down bra nches with their trunks. Elephants are very friendly towards e ach other and towards their neighbors. Normally, they live in a group for many years. Young mal e elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 yea rs old. Now, there are very few elephants in the world. The number of them is becoming smaller and smaller because their li ving areas are used for farming. Also, people hunt them for th eir tusks.WolvesWolves are not very big. They have grey fur. Wolves have ver y good eyesight, hearing and smell. Wolves' food is various. T hey eat animals, insects and snails. They are friendly to eachother and never attack people. They do not kill for fun. Wolves are in danger, too. They are losing their livin g areas because people cut down forests. Soon they will have no home or food.1.

Wild animals in dangerB. How to hunt wild animalsC. Animals in the zooD. How to train the animalsBAs traditional Chineseart, paper cutting has a long history. The first and earliest pap er cutting was found in China 1,500 years ago. But this traditional art is at risk of disappearing now. Luckily, Vo yo Woo, a Chinese immigrant（移民）in America, is trying to bring this art back to life.OneSaturday in 2014, Ms Woo held a paper cutting show at a sho pping center near Washington. She got much fun and peace doing it. She hoped more people would enjoy it. Ms Woo beg an to study the art of paper cutting as a 14-year-old girl in her hometown in China. She said all the students at school had to learn paper cutting. But she had a deep love for it. So her teacher spent more time teaching her after class. L ater, she won the second prize in a national painting and art competition. Ms Woo went to America af ter she finished collage in 2008. Soon after that, she took part in an activity to promote（宣传）Chinese paper cutting. And then she was invited to show the art in many important activities.“It is important to promote this art to Americans or anyone who is inte rested in it. Maybe it will make this art more popular.” Woo sai d.From the art of paper cutting, people can know about Chinese cultural values, history and stories of people’s life. Ms Woo u ses the art as a tool to show Chinese culture to people who know little about it. Chinese art is not only f or Chinese, but also for people all over the world.5.

A team gets better. A kid practic es more and swims a personal best or learns a new move on the basketball court. In 2006, two things happened that got m e thinking about change—in sports and in life.One of them is tennis champion Andre Agassi, who retired in 2006. Agassi was a terrific player who won 60 titles, including eight major championships(冠军称号).But his greatest accomplishment（成就）might have been how much he changed during his career. When he was young, Agassi was a show off who seemed to c are only about himself. He didn't train very hard, but he won m atches because of his tremendous（极大的） talent. Eventually, though, injuries and his bad attitude c aught up with him. He fell from No.1 in the world ranking to N o.141. So Agassi changed. He trained harder and became a world-class player again. More importantly, he changed as a person . He was nicer to fans and opponents（对手）. He stopped thinking just about himself and started thinki ng about others. Through his Andre Agassi Charitable Found ation, he raised more than $60 million to help disadvantaged kids around his hometown of Las Vegas, Nevada. He even st arted a school, the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Acade my, for at-risk kids.At the start of a new year, lots of people promise themselves t hey will change. They might vow to get in good physical shap e, do better in school or be nicer to others. Changes such as t hose can be difficult. But they do happen. Just remember And re Agassi: It wasn't easy, but he changed, and changed for the better.8. According to the writer, which of the following may be the g reatest achievement for Agassi?A. He once ranked No.1 in the world rankings.B. He wo n 60 titles.C. He changed much during his career.D. He won8 major championships.9.

What might be talked about in the paragraphs following thi s passage?A. What achievements Agassi has made after he changed for the better.B. How we can change for the better.C. Another thing happened in life that got the writer thinking about change.D. Some assessments(评价) about Agassi from different people.DLaptop computers are popular all over the world. People use t hem on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also co nnect students to their classrooms.Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want . Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college wi ll receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a ＄10 million comp uter program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to "sp eak" with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is tha t students will be able to use computers without going to com puter labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees----anywhere at all! Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. Aslaptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can c onnect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students . State officials are also testing laptop programs at other unive rsities, too.At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use co mputers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, "Here we are i n the middle of Virginia and we're giving students a window o n the world. They can see everything and do everything." 12. The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each st udent a laptop to _____.A. use for their schoolworkB. access the InternetC. work at homeD. connect them to libraries13. Which of the following is TRUE about Westlake College?A. All teachers use computers.B. 1500 students have laptops .C. It is an old college in America.D. Students there can do everything.14. “A window on the world” in the last paragraph means that students can _____.A. attend lectures on information technologyB. travel around the worldC. get information from around the worldD. have free laptops15. What can we infer (推断)from the passage?A. The program is successfulB. The program is not workable.C. The program is too expensive.D.

2017-2018学年高一英语上学期期末考试试题(1)英语试卷时间：100分钟总分：150分第一部分：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）AA teenager needs to have a sense of independence in their life to feel secure（安全的）. To some teenagers independence means a lot to them, and I think that some parents don’t allow their teenagers enough independence.Independence has something to do with freedom. Some kids are not allowed to go anywhere alone, and the only thing their schedule includes is going to school, coming home, going to sleep, and repeating the process the next day. Parents tend to be afraid that their kids can get hurted if they go outside into the world. But if parents control their kids too much, they may never learn to live on their own. The best way for a teenager to learn lesson is through experience. I think it is beneficial for teenagers to have freedom.Teenagers’ lack of freedom can also stop them from having good friendship at school. Some might say that this is a good thing, because it helps them focus more on their school work.I argue that this can only discourage them not to do their school work. Some parents do not allow their children to be around their friends outside the school, thinking that this will get them into trouble. But I don’t think so. Instead, isn’t this a good reason for parents to get their children a cellphone? Cellphones allow teenagers to stay in touch with their parents, and communicate better with their friends.Privacy is another issue between parents and their teenagers. Teenagers tend to enjoy relaxation by themselves in their own room. This also gives them a sense of independence. It often annoys teenagers when their parents enter their room when they are not home. I know that my mom always goes in my room when I’m not home, and this has brought me to the point whereI have asked many times to get a lock on my door.1. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. Kids know how to live independently.B. Some parents allow their kids no freedom.C. It benefits teenagers to have freedom.D. Kids have a dull routine every day。

AI hate Black Friday sales. It’s often a gathering of people who are here for many different reasons. Some are looking for a deal on that one item for their loved one, or perhaps themselves. Their intentions are completely unrelated to the festive time of the year.It was several years ago when my wife asked me to meet her at the local department store on Black Friday morn ing. They had advertised a child’s bike that she wanted to purchase for our son. We stood with a very large crowd, waiting for the manager to blow the whistle. After a while the whistle blew. It was like throwing a bucket of small fish into a tank of sharks. I told my wife that if we obtained a bike, fine, but if we did not, I was OK with that too.As the pile of bikes began to gradually decrease in size, I saw my polite opportunity to wrap my hands around the corner of one of the boxes. I lifted it up and suddenly felt some mild resistance. I looked up see one of the largest gentlemen I had ever seen in my life. Frightening was not the word to describe his presence. He wore lots of belts of metal studded leather around both arms and even his neck. Tattoos(纹身)were an obvious passion of his.I started to give up the box but he gently pushed it back in my direction and back into my hands. He then directed it into my shopping cart. He looked at me, smiled, and said, “Merry Christmas.” My wife and I went to the checkout, paid for the bike and went home. All the way home I was thinking that this moment was by far the best gift I had ever received for Christmas.The kindness of a stranger broke all preconceived notions(预想)I may have had of stereotypes and prejudices.21.How did the author feel when going into the store?A.The crowd was like small fish.B.They might not get the bike.C.He was excited to do the shopping.D.The whistle was blown too late.22.What happened when the author was buying the bike?A.He was scared by a man’s look at first.B.A gentleman bought the bike for him.C.A stranger helped him lift the box.D.He gave up the bike he first touched.23.What can we learn from the author’s experience?A.Look before you leap.B.Custom is a second nature.C.Doing is better than saying.D.Don’t judge a book by its cover.24.What is the best title of the passage?A.Black Friday salesB.My son’s best bikeC.The best Christmas giftD.A strange gentlemanBDo you want to get home from work knowing you have made a real difference in someone’s life? If yes, don’t care about sex or age! Come and join us, then you’ll make it!Position: Volunteer Social Care Assistant (No Pay with Free Meals)Place: ManchesterHours: Part TimeWe are now looking for volunteers to support people with learning disabilities to live active lives!

It is in worldwide use, a study found.Researchers discovered that languages spoken in countries from Ghana and Laos to Iceland and Italy all include “huh?”, or something that sounds very l ike it. They said that while the study may sound silly, the word is an absolutely necessary part of speech. Without it and similar words, it would be impossible to show that we haven’t heard or understood what had been said and this would lead to constant misunderstandings.But while other words used in the same context, such as “sorry” or “what”, vary widely across languages, “huh?” remains unchanged.The Dutch researchers carefully studied ten languages from around the world, including Siwu, which is spoken in Ghana, and an Australian Aboriginal language, as well as Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Mandarin Chinese.They analyzed tapes of recorded conversations for words that sounded like “huh?” and were used to request that whatever had just been s aid be repeated. All contained a version of “huh?” and the word was also found in another 21 languages. While there were subtle differences in eachcountry, all sounded basically the same.This is surprising because normally unrelated languages will use ver y different words to describe the same thing.

At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors—silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.It's fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied(陪伴) my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn't want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully. Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.32.According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?A.Because they are traditional and safe.B.Because they are convenient and inexpensive.C.Because they are colorful and available.D.Because they are fast and environment friendly.33.The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended _______.A.to ride it for funB.to use it for transportC.to experience local cultureD.to improve his riding skills34.How did the author feel about his street crossing?A.It was boring.B.It was difficult.C.It was lively.D.It was wonderful.35.Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?A.The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B.The author was annoyed by the air while riding.C.The author was praised by the other bikers.D.The author took great pleasure in biking.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。
