2022-2023学年广东省广州中学高一(上)期末英语试卷

A

We live in a town with three beaches.There are two parts less than 10 minutes' walk from home where

neighborhood children gather to play.However,what my children want to do after school is pick up a

screen—any screen—and stare at it for hours.They are not alone.Today's children spend an average of four

and a half hours a day looking at screens,split between watching television and using the Internet.

In the past few years,an increasing number of people and organisations have begun coming up with plans

to counter this trend.A couple of years ago film-maker David Bond realised that his children,then aged

five and three,were attached to screens to the point where he was able to say "chocolate" into his

three-year-old son's ear without getting a response.He realised that something needed to change,and,being a London media type,appointed himself "marketing director from Nature".He recorded his journey

as he set about treating nature as a brand to be marketed to young people.The result was Project Wild

Thing,a film which charts the birth of the World Network,a group of organisations with the common goal

of getting children out into nature.

"Just five more minutes outdoors can make a difference, "David Bond says.

"There is a lot of really interesting evidence which seems to be suggesting that if children are inspired up to

the age of seven,then being outdoors will be a habit for life. " His own children have got into the habit of

playing outside now: "We just send them out into the garden and tell them not to come back in for a while.

"

Summer is upon us.There is an amazing world out there,and it needs our children as much as they need

it.Let us get them out and let them play.

1. What is the problem with the author's children? ______

A. They often annoy their neighbours.

B. They are tired of doing their homework.

C. They have no friends to play with.

D. They stay in front of screens for too long. (2)How did David Bond advocate(提倡)his idea?

______ A.By making a documentary film. B.By organizing outdoor activities. C.By advertising in

London media. D.By creating a network of friends.

2. What can be a suitable title for the text? ______

A. Let Children Have Fun.

B. Young Children Need More Free Time.

C. Market Nature to Children.

D. David Bond:A Role Model for Children.

B

A few years ago,my sister-in-law started to feel concerned about her teenage daughter.What was she

doing after school?Where was she spending her time?My niece was an excellent student,and took part

in all kinds of after-class activities.Even so,her mom decided to put a tracking (跟踪) app on her kid's

phone.

At first,this made my sister-in-law "feel better".Then the good situation suddenly ended.She recalled, "I

found out that she was at a place where she said she wasn't.I went out in the middle of the night andI found

her walking without shoes in the middle of the street with some friends. " Things went quickly downhill(每况愈下) for the mother and the daughter after that.

With 83% of teens having their own smart phones,according to a 2020 Pew study,more and more of their

parents are facing the question:To watch or not?

Ana Homayoun,founder of Green Ivy Educational Consulting,has advised many parents and their kids

about this. "I've found the tracking app is more acceptable for teens when it is included as part of a family

agreement to improve safety than when it is placed as a secret tool to watch them, " she said.

Mark Bell,a father of a teenage girl,said, "We don't have tracking apps,but we have set some ground

rules that my daughter must follow in exchange for us providing a smart phone, " he said.For example,his daughter must "friend(加为好友)" him on social media so that he can read posts,and must share all

passwords.

When you're trying to build trust,you need to create an environment that encourages it.So,to win their

trust,you always need to be straight(坦诚的)with your children. "Parents must let children know how

and when they'll be watching them," said Doctor Pauleh Weigle.If they're not open about it,he warns,it can "greatly damage the parent and child relationship".

3. What can we infer from the second paragraph? ______

A. The author's niece sometimes lied to her mother.

B. The author's niece did worse and worse in her studies.

C. The author's niece always followed her mother's orders.

D. The author's niece liked the tracking app on her phone.

4. How can Mark Bell's daughter have a smart phone? ______

A. She ought to earn money to pay for it.

B. She must follow some ground rules.

C. She should put a tracking app on her phone.

Experience local high school life. C. Attend an e-learning course. D. Do community service. B “The Last Dance”, the documentary, told the story of Michael Jordan and his success with the Chicago Bulls. We learned a lot about Michael Jordan and his championships. We took behind-the-scenes glimpses (一瞥) at what it’s like to compete in the NBA. We were given a glimpse into the ‘90s basketball era (时代) at a time when almost no sports are being played. But it also meant something for our culture, experts say. / 7 2 Dr. Josh Shuart, the director of sport management at the Jack Welch College of Business & Technology at Sacred Heart University (Connecticut), told the Deseret News that the documentary showed something important for our modern society. Watching “The Last Dance” gave us something to look forward to during a time when there’s nothing else going on, he said. “Why is it important and why did people watch it? The latter is simple: with the absence of live sports of any kind, it was probably the single most interesting thing on TV,” Shuart said in an email to the Deseret News. Michael Jordan matters for sports culture, too. Jordan set the standard when it came to connecting athletes to brands (品牌) and brands to athletes. Athletes can take care of their brand during their careers and even well into retirement (退休). Shaquille O’Neal is an example, Shuart said. The Los Angeles Lakers legend — though highly celebrated for his basketball career — has built post-basketball success through business opportunities. There might not have been too much new content in “The Last Dance” for sports fans who grew up in the Jordan era. But storytelling still provides a path for us to find happiness, Shuart said. “Above all, even though we know the beginning, middle, and end, the storytelling provides amazing insight and results in a very interesting story,” he said. 4. What is “The Last Dance” mainly about? A. The development of basketball in the 1990s. B. Michael Jordan’s growing-up experience. C. The history of the Chicago Bulls. D. Michael Jordan’s success with the Chicago Bulls. 5. Why did the author take Shaquille O’Neal as an example? A. To prove that it takes athletes much hard work to be successful. B. To show Michael Jordan’s great influence on other athletes. C. To discuss why basketball means a lot to most people. D. To compare Michael Jordan and Shaquille O’Neal. 6. What does Shuart think of “The Last Dance”? A. It shows Michael Jordan’s unknown life. B. It cannot attract Michael Jordan’s fans. C. It is encouraging and successful. D. It is boring for most people. 7. Where does the text probably come from? A. A documentary review. B. A business report. C. An official notice. D. A TV guide. C Last year, wildfire spread through Boulder, Colorado. It wasn’t a hot summer day. It wasn’t a forested neighborhood. It was winter in the suburbs (郊区). More than 1,000 homes and buildings burned. Large parts of the country that don’t have wildfires are now at risk. They include nearly 80 million homes and buildings. That is what new data shows. Over the next 30 years, the risk will only grow. The group First Street Foundation created a program called Fire Factor. People can go to a website to learn what their wildfire risk is in 2022 and in 2052. Right now, about 16% of Americans live in risky places. By 2052, that will go up to 21%. California will likely suffer a lot from wildfire. That’s partly because it is so big and partly because of its weather. So California will be on the top of the at-risk list. But nearly half of all at-risk Americans in 2052 will live in the southern half of the U.S. The South will be home to the largest number of people at high risk: 32 million. States like Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, and North and South Carolina will be “in the line of fire,” so to speak, and so will southwestern states like Arizona and New Mexico. People are doing many things to make fire risk worse. They are moving to places where wildfire is a natural yearly event. They are building homes right next to plants and trees that can burn. Climate (气候) change has increased heat and dryness. That means any spark (火花) at any time can cause a big fire. As with many climate threats, wildfires put minorities at the greatest risk. By 2052, about 44% of all Native Americans will live in places at majors risk from wildfire. Nearly 1 in 4 Hispanics will. People who don’t speak English or own cars will have a harder time learning about and getting away from a fast-moving fire. 8. What problem did Boulder have last year? A. Strange weather. B. Widespread wildfires.
