Dad owned and operated a small metal business, and after school I often hung around while he worked. Dad handfed steel into a device that cut it as cleanly as a butcher cuts meat. The machine looked like a large pair of scissors, with blades thicker than my father's body. If he didn’t feed those terrifying bladesjust right, he risked serious injury. "Why don' t you hire someone to do that for you？" Mom asked Dad one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment（涂抹油）. "Why don’t you hire a cook？" Dad asked, giving her one of his rare smiles.Many years later, during my first daily visit, after drinking the juice my father had squeezed for me. l walked over, hugged him and said, "I love you, Dad." From then on I did this every morning. My father never told me how he felt about my hugs, and there was never any expression on his face when I gave them.56. The author’s father always prepared a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice for him because_______.A. that was the author's favoriteB. he was sure the author would be thirstyC. the author was always complainingD. that was a gesture of love57. The author’s father didn’t hire a helper because________.A. his job was too dangerousB. his job required high skillsC. he wanted to save moneyD. he was not good at communicating with others58. We may infer from the passage that _______.A. the author's father lacked a sense of humorB. the author quite understood his father as time went onC. the author's-father didn't love him very muchD. the author's father was too strict with himBYou can improve its immune power by giving it proper nutrient diet. Healthy food can really do wonders. Try to give it food which is either suggested by the vet（兽医） or is healthy for your pet. Increase the intake of food which is rich in vitamins A, C and E.Keep your dog warm. The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house. Do not keep your dog outside when it is cold and wet. At home you can also keep the dog warm with the help of carpets. This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast.Increase the fluid（流质） intake as it helps a lot. Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth （肉汤）in water which will give your dog strength. Warm water will make your dog more comfortable and will also keep the dog away from the respiratory infections（呼吸道感染）.Steam treatment is considered to be effective in getting rid of cold. It makes the nasal（鼻的） passage wet, which helps proper breathing. Just fill your bathroom with steam and leave your dog inside the bathroom for 15 minutes. Do it nearly 2 to 3 times a day and you will see your dog recovering.These are some of the things you can do to help your dog recover from cold. However, if you are not able to find any improvement in its health, then turn to the vet for help immediately. Take your dog for regular checkups so as to avoid complications（并发症）.59. From the first paragraph we know about __________.A. causes and symptoms（症状）of cold in dogsB. characteristics of sick dogsC. the similarities between dogs and human beingsD. the difficulty in keeping a dog as a pet60. When your dog catches cold, you should feed it on _______.A. its favorite foodB. the suggested food by the vetC. some meat and waterD. food rich in vitamin B61. When a dog catches cold, it is wrong to ________.A. keep it inside during cold and wet weatherB. let it eat too much solid foodC. leave it inside the bathroom full of steamD. keep it sleeping on rugs at home62. It can be learnt from the text that _________.A. a dog’s cold can always disappear naturallyB. it’s quite easy to make a sick dog recover from coldC. treating a dog’s cold sometimes needs a vet’s helpD. cold in dogs won’t spread between each otherCIn November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested thatonly the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out. They are not sure to what degree people's memories are affected.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. “Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry（精神病学）at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people's memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out,” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist（伦理学家）.63. The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. a new research on the pillC. a way of wiping out painful memoriesD. an argument about the research on the pill64. The drug tested on people can .A. cause the brain to fix memoriesB. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. prevent body producing certain chemicalsD. wipe out the emotional effects of memories65. We can infer from the passage that .A. experts are not sure about the effects of the pillsB. the pill will certainly stop people's emotional memoriesC. taking the pill will do harm to people's physical healthD. the pill has already been produced and used by the American public66. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph？A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D. The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.DWinners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start tocarry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don't rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don't have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on "whose fault it is. " Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.67. According to the passage, winners_______________.A. deal with problems rather than blame othersB. meet with fewer difficulties in their eyesC. have responsible and able colleaguesD. blame themselves rather than others68. The underlined word “remedy” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .A. avoidB. acceptC. improveD. consider69. When your colleague brings about a problem, you should __ .A. find a better way to handle the problemB. blame him for his lack of responsibilityC. tell him to find the cause of the problemD. ask a more able colleague for help70. Which of the following is the best title for the passage？A. A Winner's Achievement.B. A Winner's Problem.C. A Winner's Opportunity.D. A Winner's Secret.第II卷（非选择题）五、任务型阅读（满分10分）请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。

One evening, after a long day of hard work, the farmer returned home with the donkeys and began to tie them to the stakes(桩). When he finished nine donkeys, he found that the tenth rope was gone.What now? He could not let the last donkey run around all night. It would surely run away. Suddenly, he saw that, under a tree, there was a monk(和尚). The farmer ran to the monk and asked for voice. The monk said, “The only thing you have to do to the tenth donkey is make the movements(动作) you would have made with a rope in your hands. Pretend (假装) to tie the donkey. That’s all.”The farmer returned to the tenth donkey, pretended to fasten(拴紧) a rope around its neck and then to tie the rope to a stake. He then entered his little house, half trusting the monk’s advice, half worried that his donk ey would run away in the middle of the night.When he went outside very early the next morning, all the donkeys were still standing nicely next to their stakes, even the tenth one. The farmer untied the donkeys and wanted to take them to the field. But to his surprise, donkey number ten refused to move an inch. The farmer pulled and shouted but the animal just didn’t move.Suddenly, the farmer thought of what he had done to the donkey the night before. With a great “ah ha”, he returned to donkey number ten,and just after a simple movement the donkey happily walked with him to the field.24. What was the farmer’s problem when he tied the donkey?A. He needed one more rope.B. The tenth stake was gone.C. The tenth donkey ran away.D. He had left a rope in the field.25. Following the monk’s advice, what did the farmer do?A.

Pretending to cut the tenth rope.D. Trying the tenth donkey with a real rope.CFirst Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. V olunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life, ” she says.Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters , visit the elderly and more.Some cities ---- including Seatle, Chicago, and Washingtong,D.C. ----require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. Thestudent volunteers learn new skills and help their communities .Many parents are in favor of the idea ---- they say volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say voluntee ring is only fun if it’s a choice.Read both sides of the debate and decide.YESV olunteering can help teens get into college or get a job.Many cities and towns need help. V olunteers can help keep important programs going.Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required.

Should students be required to volunteer?DCoffee is an important part of Italian culture and since arriving here over six months ago, I have drunk a lot of it!Of course, coffee is also very popular in the UK but coffee culture in Italy is completely different. In Italy, when you order a coffee in a cafe or bar(酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip(小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy -includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy, such as espresso or macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk), is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.32.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A.By time.B. By space.C. By comparisonD.By example.33.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?A. Espresso.B. Lungo.C. Cappuccino.D. Macchiato.34.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.C.Few Italians take short breaks from work for coffee.D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.35.What does the author think of Italian coffee?A.She loves its bitter taste.B.It is too expensive for her.C.The cup it is served in is too small.D.It is a good choice for breakfast.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。
2020-2021学年高一上学期期中考试英语试题(含答案)
2020-2021学年度第一学期高一年级期中考试英语试题（含答案）试卷说明：满分150分；考试时间：120分钟；试题难度：0.6-0.7第一部分阅读理解 (共两节，满分50分)第一节阅读阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项 (共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)。
AThese people are studying English. However, they are now facing some problems.I am Pablo. I work 50 hours a week as a taxi driver, so I talk with people all day. They understand me, but I know I make a lot of mistakes. No one corrects me. My vocabulary is strong. Grammar is my problem. I’m trying to change little by little. For example, I don’t use the past tense.I always say, “I drive him to the office this morning” instead of “I drove him to the office this morning”.My name is Maria Luisa. I’m teaching myself English, and I’m good at grammar. However, it’s really difficult to find ways to practice English. I live in an area where everyone speaks my language. My neighbours and friends speak Spanish. I can speak Spanish in the supermarket and at the post office.I am Li Ping. I understand the grammar and the readings in my class and I think my writing is good, but I’m very nervous when I speak English. I don’t want to make any mistakes because I’m afraid people will think that I’m stupid. Also, my pronunciation isn’t good. When I speak, people often say, “What? Say that again. ”I am Yoshi. I have been in the United States for one year. I’m studying hard and I know grammar well, but the vocabulary is very difficult. When I listen, I don’t understand many of the words. When I try to read, there are three or four new words in every sentence. I feel discouraged.1. What would be the best advice for Maria Luisa?A. Try to have a wide vocabulary.B. Make friends with English-speaking people.C. Read as many English books as possible.D. Develop a good knowledge of grammar.2. Why do people find it hard to understand Li Ping’s English?A. Her voice is very low.B. Her grammar is terrible.C. She can’t pronounce words correctly.D. She speaks at a very fast speed.3. What can we learn about Yoshi?A. He has a very small vocabulary.B. He is very good at listening.C. He has learned English for years.D. He was born in the United States.BParents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son. Suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut. ”Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental (思想的) break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.4. “The door to his room is always shut. ” suggests that the son ______.A. dislikes to open his doorB. begins to hate his parentsC. is always busy with his studiesD. keeps himself away from his parents5. What troubles Tina and Mark most?A. Their daughter isn’t as lovely as before.B. They can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly.C. They don’t know what to say to their daughter.D. Their daughter talks with them only when she needs money.6. Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.B. Teenagers talk little about their own lives.C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.D. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.7. What can we learn from the passage?A.

Parents should have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.CTwo weeks ago, a 5-year-old girl named Sunshine Oelfke emptied out her piggy bank (存钱罐) onto the living room floor and immediately started counting. Her grandmother, Jackie Oelfke, thought she was playing as she carefully lined up the coins, but then she saw the girl put the coins into a plastic bag and place it in her backpack.“That aroused my curiosity,” Jackie told CBS News. “Nobody messes with the piggy bank.” After observing Sunshine work a few minutes longer, Jackie decided to find out why the little girl broke into her savings.“What are you doing with that money?” Jackie asked her granddaughter.“I’m taking it to school,” Sunshine replied. The little girl finally stated the real reason why she needed the money. “I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—hermom doesn’t have milk money but I have. ”Jackie’s heart melted at Sunshine’s words. Choked with strong feelings, Jackie held her sweet granddaughter tightly in her arms.Last week, Jackie and Sunshine met with her teacher, Rita Hausher, and handed her the $30 that Sunshine had saved. There are 20 kids in Sunshine’s class and about half don’t get milk. It costs﹩0.45 a carton (纸盒). The total adds up to about﹩180 a month for every child in the class to have milk every day.After dropping Sunshine off at school, Jackie posted a tearful video on Facebook to explain her granddaughter’s plan. To her surprise, dozens of people offered to donate towards the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than $1, 000. Now every student in Sunshine’s class can get free milk for the rest of the year.Jackie said Sunshine doesn’t see her kind act as a big deal. She was just trying to look out for her friends. “She doesn’t understand the effect she’s brought about,” Jackie said. “But now she knows she can do whatever she puts her mind to. ”8. Why did Sunshine empty her piggy bank?A. She wanted to play with the coins.B. She needed to train her counting skills.C. She intended to pay for her friend’s milk.D. She hoped to show off her savings in class.9. How did Jackie feel on hearing Sunshine’s words?A. Touched.B. Curious.C. Proud.D. Relieved.10. In Jackie’s eyes, what did Sunshine learn from the experience?A. Many hands make light work.B. Two heads are better than one.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.11. What is the best title for this passage?A. Small Coins, Big DeedsB. Jackie’s Piggy BankC. A Moved GrandmotherD. Piggy Bank and Carton MilkDSmartphones, tablets and smart watches are banned at school for all children under 15 in France. Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school hours, including meal breaks.“I think it's a good thing. School is not about being on your phone,” Paris mum MarieCaroline Madeleine told AFP. “It's hard with kids. You can't control what they see and that's one of the things that worries me as a parent.”There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones.McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this had been a success.McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for daytoday learning but they're not allowed to use social media. Ms Binnion said at first “Teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨)，” but now they're seeing the positives．“They come to school and they're not allowed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks,” she said.“It's been wonderful in terms of students communicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screens,” she said.Ms Binnion also leads by example and doesn't use her mobile phone in school.“I think anyone can do it if we've done it.”Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher DrJoanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it's important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in.“A good education for students today is knowing how to use technology to learn, communicate and work with ideas,” she wrote. “Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response (反应) to a 2018 stateofplay.”12．Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?A．School is for studying. B．Kids behave badly nowadays. C．Teachers find it hard to control kids. D．Her kids depend too much on phones. 13．What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?A．Some teachers were against it at first.B．Students can now see the good of the ban.C．Students can use their phones at lunch breaks.D．Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.14．What does the underlined word “Chromebook” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?A．A book.B．A notebook. C．A learning website.D．A kind of computer. 15．What does Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?A．It will disconnect parents and kids.B．It will cause kids to communicate less.C．It will prevent kids being techminded.D．It will make education go back 60 years.第二节七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

One evening, after a long day of hard work, the farmer returned home with the donkeys and began to tie them to the stakes(桩). When he finished nine donkeys, he found that the tenth rope was gone.What now? He could not let the last donkey run around all night. It would surely run away. Suddenly, he saw that, under a tree, there was a monk(和尚). The farmer ran to the monk and asked for voice. The monk said, “The only thing you have to do to the tenth donkey is make the movements(动作) you would have made with a rope in your hands. Pretend (假装) to tie the donkey. That’s all.”The farmer returned to the tenth donkey, pretended to fasten(拴紧) a rope around its neck and then to tie the rope to a stake. He then entered his little house, half trusting the monk’s advice, half worried that his donk ey would run away in the middle of the night.When he went outside very early the next morning, all the donkeys were still standing nicely next to their stakes, even the tenth one. The farmer untied the donkeys and wanted to take them to the field. But to his surprise, donkey number ten refused to move an inch. The farmer pulled and shouted but the animal just didn’t move.Suddenly, the farmer thought of what he had done to the donkey the night before. With a great “ah ha”, he returned to donkey number ten,and just after a simple movement the donkey happily walked with him to the field.24. What was the farmer’s problem when he tied the donkey?A.

Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life, ” she says.Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference.

Students must volunteer in order to graduate. Thestudent volunteers learn new skills and help their communities .Many parents are in favor of the idea ---- they say volunteering helps teens build job skills.

V olunteers can help keep important programs going.Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required.

In Italy, when you order a coffee in a cafe or bar(酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip(小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy -includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy, such as espresso or macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk), is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.32.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A.By time.B. By space.C. By comparisonD.By example.33.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?A. Espresso.B. Lungo.C. Cappuccino.D. Macchiato.34.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.C.Few Italians take short breaks from work for coffee.D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.35.What does the author think of Italian coffee?A.She loves its bitter taste.B.It is too expensive for her.C.The cup it is served in is too small.D.It is a good choice for breakfast.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。
