By the time when I was eight I was helping dad fix up old furniture. He gave me a cent for every nail I 16 out of old boards.I got my first 17 job, at JM's Restaurant in town, when I was 12．My main responsibility were 18 tables and washing dishes, or sometimes I helped cook.Every day after school I would 19 to JM's and work until ten.Even on Saturday I 20 from two until eleven. At that age it was difficult going to work and 21 my friends run off to swim or play.I didn't necessarily like work, but I loved what working 22 me to have. Because of my 23 I was always the only buying when my friends and I went to the local ice cream store. This made me 24Word that I was trustworthy and hardworking got around town. A local clothing store offered me credit 25 I was only in the seventh grade. I immediately 26 a $68 sports coat and a $22 pair of shoes. I was 27 only 65 cents an hour, and I already owed the storekeeper $90! So I learned early the danger of easy credit. I paid it 28 as soon as I could.My first job taught me self-control, responsibility and brought me a 29 of personal satisfaction few of my friends had experienced.As my father, 30 worked three jobs, once told me, “If you understand sacrifice and responsibility, there are not many things in life you can't have.”How right he was!16．A．pulled B．put C．picked D．pressed 17．A．usual B．real C．main D．particular 18．A．sweeping B．packing C．clearing D．emptying 19．A．head B．turn C．change D．move 20．A．studied B．worked C．played D．slept 21．A．helping B．having C．watching D．letting 22．A．asked B．told C．promised D．allowed 23．A．study B．power C．age D．job24．A．proud B．friendly C．lucky D．hopeful 25．A．although B．while C．if D．since26．A．sold B．borrowed C．charged D．wore 27．A．keeping B．making C．paying D．taking28．A．out B．over C．away D．off29．A．point B．level C．part D．sign30．A．he B．that C．who D．whoever二．阅读理解（10题，20分）AWill it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83.During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast.The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effort thanif he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains.If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class.Contrary to what many people believe people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce other meals.31．The title of the passage should be ________.A．the importance of breakfastB．the result of a testC．breakfast will make you cleverD．breakfast is more important than other meals32．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．Poor breakfast affects those who work with brains.B．Morning diet may cause one to get fatter.C．Reducing lunch and supper is of less value in weight-losing.D．Eating less in lunch and supper may help to lose weight.33．During the test, those who were tested were given ________.A．no breakfast at all B．very rich breakfastC．little food for breakfast D．different foods or none.34．The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat breakfast, you will ________.A．lose weight B．not lose weightC．be healthier D．gain a lot of weight35．The results of the test show that ________.A．breakfast has a great effect on a person's work and studiesB．breakfast has little to do with a person's workC．a person will work better if he has simple breakfastD．those working with brains should have much for breakfastBEvery one needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do so many things together with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well. That doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then they feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend.Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There's more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those who don't have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares about you. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.36．The first paragraph tells us ________.A．none need friendsB．we always need friends around upC．making friends is the need in people's lifeD．we need to be alone37．Which of the following is what the writer doesn't say in the passage?A．People are happy when their friends leave them.B．Maybe people will never see their friends after their friends move away.C．People can know their friends in different ways.D．People like their friends very much if they get to know them.38．Which of the following is the most probable place people name after friendly people?A．A house B．A room.C．A village D．A library39．If people have friends, they would live longer, because ________.A．they feel happier and healthierB．they get a lot of help from their friendsC．they take better care of themselvesD．both A and C40．This passage tells us ________.A．that people are all friends B．that people need friendsC．how to get to know friends D．how to name a placeB卷三．从右栏中选出左栏单词的意思（15题，15分）1．diet （A）way of life2．remote （B）number of things, events of a similar kind3．volunteer （C）to form （parts）into a whole4．stress （D）far away from..., isolated5．graduate （E）needing immediately attention, action or decision6．formal （F）limited variety or amount of food that a person is allowed to eat 7．suppose （G）person who offers to do sth. without being paid8．career （H）complete a course for a degree9．lifestyle （I）invite sb. to take part in a contest.10．urgent （J）space between two points or places11．distance （K）doing things or always ready to do things12．series （L）force or pressure caused by difficulties in life13．organize （M）accept as true or probable14．challenge （N）a job or profession15．active （O）ceremonial, according to accepted rules or customs四．翻译句子（5题，15分）1．我无法忍受吃饭时周围有人吸烟。

必修一unit 1测试题一、阅读理解（本大题共4小题，共8.0分）AJack Johnson is one of the most popular songwriters in the world.Jack was born on May 18，1975 in Hawaii. Being the son of a famous surfer, Jack naturally has an interest in surfing. Most of his life lessons were learned in the water. At the age of 17，Jack entered the finals of the Pipeline Masters—the world's most famous surfing competition. Everyone thought Jack would become a professional surfer like his father. Unluckily, one month later, he had a deadly accident while surfing and was seriously hurt.Life is like a revolving door. When it closes, it also opens. Jack started to practise playing the guitar and write songs when he was staying in hospital. At first, his father thought Jack only did it for fun, but soon he was surprised at the great progress his son had made.When studying in the university, Jack didn't stop practising his guitar skills. He played the guitar for school parties. He wrote songs and sang for his teachers and friends. They liked his songs. His first music album Brushfire Fairytales came out in 2001.It was a great success. His second album, On and On, was much like his first. They were filled with sweet, easy-going songs that everybody liked listening to. Later Jack had lots of concerts in and out of America. He became popular all over the world.Jack had five albums by 2010 and more than 15 million copies of them were sold. His music doesn't fit into any of the popular music styles like pop, rock, R & B or hip-hop. It is more like folk music, played with a guitar and beautiful voice. When listening to his songs, you feel like lying on the beach enjoying the warm sunshine.Jack is a talent, though he himself says he is only a surfer who loves music. In his songs we can find his secret of success.

The more time you spend with the language, the faster you will learn. (1)Focus on words and phrases!To build up your vocabulary, you’ll need lots. (2) Learn these words and phrases through your listening and reading. Read online, using online dictionaries, and make your own vocabulary lists for review. Gradually you will be able to use them.(3)Listen wherever you are on your MP3 player. Read what you are listening to. Listen to and read things that you like, things that you can mostly understand. If you keep listening and reading, you will get used to the language.Take responsibility for your own learning!If you do want to learn the language, take control. Choose contents of interest that you want to listen to and read. Seek out the words and phrases that you need to understand in your listening and reading. (4) Discover the language by yourself. Talk when you feel like it. Write when you feel like it.Relax and enjoy yourself!Do not worry about what you cannot remember, or cannot yet understand, or cannot yet say. It does not matter.(5) The language will gradually become clearer in your brain, but this will happen on a schedule that you cannotcontrol. Just make sure you spend enough time with the language.A.Listen and read every day!B.You are learning and improving.C.That is the greatest guarantee of success.D.Do not wait for someone else to show you the language.E.Start to notice words and how they come together as phrases.F.Soon you will run into your new words and phrases elsewhere.G.This means spending time enjoyably connected to the language you are learning.1._________2. _________3. _________4. _________5. _________三、完形填空（本大题共15小题，共22.5分）I used to travel to make myself relaxed.

a thousand miles per hour.If you turn something around your head on a string(细绳),it goes around in a circleuntil you let go of the string.Then it flies off in a straightline.“Switching off” gravity would be like letting go of thestring.Things not attached to the Earth would fly off in a straight line.People in buildings would suddenly shoot upwards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling.Most things outside would fly off into space.1.What information can we get from the first passage?A.It is the jet stream that affects how fast airplanes fly.B.Planes go slower when they are moving with the wind.C.It takes more time to fly from NY to London than from London to NY.D.The jet stream always blows from the east across the Atlantic.2.The word “shoot” underlined in the 2nd passage probably means “________”.A.send forB.move quicklye outD.grow quickly3.It can be inferred that without gravity________.A.buildings and other structures would float awayB.trees and buildings would not so easily fly offC.something around your head would not float awayD.everything outside buildings would fly off space4.Where can we most probably read this text?A.In a research paper.B.In a short story.C.In a travel magazine.D.In a student’s book.1.mean v.意思是;意味着;打算生义：adj.小气的，吝啬的;刻薄的Her husband is very mean about money.她的丈夫在金钱上很吝啬。
