期中英语试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,共25.0分)AIt was at least two months before Christmas when nine-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bicycle.As Christmas drew nearer,her desire for a bicycle seemed to die,or so we thought.We bought some lovely dolls,and a doll house.Then ,much to our surprise,on December 23rd,she said that she "really wanted a bike more than anything else."It was just too late,with all the details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying last minute gifts,to take the time to select the "right bike" for our little girl.It was Christmas Eve around 9:00 pm.Almie and her six-year-old brother,Dylan,lay comfortably in their beds.Now we could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child."What if I make a little bicycle out of clay (黏土)and write a note that she could trade the clay model for a real bike?" her dad asked."This is an expensive item and she is ‘such a big girl,' it would be much better for her to pick it out." So he spent the next four hours painstakingly (尽心地)working with clay to make a tiny bike.On Christmas morning,we were excited for Almie to open the little heart-shaped package with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note.Finally,she opened it and read the note aloud."Does this mean that I trade this bike that Daddy made me for a real one?" Beaming,I said,"Yes." Almie had tears in her eyes when she replied,"I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me.I'd rather keep this than get a real bike." At that moment,we would have moved heaven and earth to buy her every bicycle on the planet!1.In the end,Almie's parents failed to buy her a new bicycle as a Christmas gift because______ .A. her desire for a bicycle disappeared graduallyB. they thought dolls were more suitable for her than a bikeC. she preferred the bike made of clayD. her parents had no time to select a "right bike" for her2.What can be inferred from the last sentence of the text?______A. The parents were happy and encouraged.B. The parents felt comfortable and relaxed.C. The parents were moved and felt proud of the girl.D. The parents felt disappointed and sorry for the girl.3.What is the best title for the text?______A. A Lovely Little Girl.B. A Great and Considerate Father.C. A Clay Bike.D. An Unforgettable Christmas Eve.BApril showers bring May flowers,as the saying goes.And with those flowers comes May Day,a holiday that most people have heard of but have no idea what it's for.May Day,celebrated on May 1 every year,has its roots in ancient festivals marking the beginning of summer.Ancient Celts(凯尔特人)called it Beltane,which is still celebrated today.Over the centuries,it gradually developed in Europe,with maypole dances now connected with the holiday.But May Day isn't all about skipping around with ribbons in the sunshine.It has also been on the same day as International Workers' Day since the 1880s.In fact,May Day is equal to America's Labor Day for certain countries.On May 1,1886,hundreds of thousands of U.S.industrial workers took part in a nationwide strike (罢工)to demand an 8-hour workday.(At the time,it was common to work 10 to 16 hours a day,according to Industrial Workers of the World.)The activities in Chicago lasted for several days,and on May 3,a strike at McCormick Reaper Works ended in a brawl with police officers.Several strikers were wounded or killed.The next night,the violence became even worse.When police came to break up a crowd of people gathered in Haymarket Square,a bomb went off in the policemen.The bomb killed seven of them and wounded 60 more.Police then opened fire on the crowd,killing several men and wounding 200.In honor of these events,now known as the Haymarket Affair,the International Socialist Conference declared May 1 as an international holiday for labor.That's why the world sees not only celebrations of warmer weather on the first day of May,but often marches for labor unions as well.4.According to the text,May Day ______ .A. is celebrated as an international holiday only in EuropeB. is a holiday that many people don't know why it is celebratedC. was developed from celebrations of the beginning of springD. was known as Beltane in history but is not celebrated nowadays5.The underlined word "brawl" in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ______ .A. accidentB. partyC. meetingD. fight6.What is the main idea of the text?______A. The birth of May Day.B. The importance of May Day.C. The meetings of May Day.D. The celebrations of May Day.CIn one high school biology class,almost four in every 10 low-income students would fail the course.But with some simple practices to reduce test anxiety (焦虑),researchers cut that number in half.Christopher Rozek is a psychologist at Stanford University.He studies how stress and other things can affect learning.Reducing test anxiety had raised test scores in several small studies.So Rozek and his team decided to test it on a larger scale.Rozek's group wanted to know if short stress-relief activities before an exam would affect a student's grade.They tested 1,175 biology students at a large,public high school in Illinois.At this school,a little more than half of low-income students fail their biology finals.Only 6 percent ofhigh-income students fail.They divide the students into four groups.One group spent 10 minutes free-writing about their fears.This was designed to clear the kids' heads so that they could then focus on the exam.Another group read how the body responds to stress and how these can actually help with attention.Then they answered reading comprehension questions.Students in a third group did both of these reading and writing activities.A fourth group,called the active control group,read a passage that told them to just ignore their worries.Afterward,the students all took their final test in biology.A total of 205 low-income students did one or both stress-relieving activities.On average,these students scored higher on the exam than their classmates in the control group.Indeed,82 percent of them passed the class.Only 61 percent of the lower-income students in the control group passed.It didn't seem to matter whether a student read or free-wrote about managing stress,or both.All methods worked equally well at helping students pass their tests.Nearly all the high-income kids passed the class whether they did the activities or not.These students may be less nervous before exams.Or they may have already learned ways to deal with the stress,Rozek says.7.The control group in the study refers to the students who ______ .A. did the free-writing about their fearsB. were not affected by their exam stressC. were controlled to be active in examsD. received no stress-relieving training8.We can learn from the study that ______ .A. all the stress-relieving activities had a positive effect on the low-income studentsB. the high-income students performed as well as the low-income studentsC. all the low-income students who did stress-relieving activities passed the examD. Few low-income students who did not do stress-relieving activities passed the exam9.Why did the stress-relieving activities make no difference for the high-income students?______A. Because they were very rich.B. Because they had possibly been trained.C. Because they were not nervous.D. Because they had studied the subject well.10.What is the author's purpose in writing the text?______A. To present the result of a research.B. To draw teachers' attention to exam stress.C. To introduce a psychologist at Stanford University.D. To encourage students to do stress-relieving activities.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Many of us devote valuable time,energy and money to planning our vacations.We do this because we know for sure that going on vacations must be good for us.Research proves this feeling without a doubt.(1) .Yet,although there are these benefits,many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK - but not great.(2) A classic one for vacation planners is trying to make full use of the money by planning trips that have too many parts.Perhaps you're planning a trip to Europe,seven cities in 10 days,and you realize it will cost only a little more to add two more destinations to the list.Sounds fine in theory (理论),but travelling from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity to experience what psychologists call mindfulness - time to take in our new environment,time to think about our travel experiences.(3) Such as how to find a good flight deal,how to get from A to B,or which destinations to add to or remove from our journey.These issues may seem important,but our psychological state of mind is far more important.(4) Firstly,choose your travel partners wisely,because nothing contributes more greatly toa trip than the right partners.Secondly,don't spend your vacation time in a place where everything is too expensive so as to keep positive.(5) .A.Planning trips is helpful to us physically and mentally.B.Thirdly,means of transportation is another big headache.C.In order to change this,some mistakes should be avoided.D.Actually,vacation happiness is based on the following top rules.E.Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic(策略的)issues.F.Vacations help us perform better at work,improve our sleep quality and fight against depression.G.Above all,shop wisely,for meaningful experiences provide more happiness than physical belongings.11.

I was fourteen and in the eighth grade.I had been a straight A student (全优生)since the first grade and this last year I had looked forward very much to owning that ja cket.One afternoon when I was on my way to the gym, I suddenly remembered my P.E. shorts were left in the bag under my desk. So I went back and get them.I was almost back at my classroom door when I heard voices raised in anger as if in som e sort of argument. I recognized the voices: Mr. Smith, my history teacher,and Mr. Brown, my math teacher. They seemed to be arguing about me."I refuse to do it! I don't care who her father is,her grades don't even begin to compare to Martha's!" That was Mr.Smith and he sounded very angry. Mr. Brown's voice sounded calm and quiet. "Look. Joann's father is not only on the Board (董事会),he owns the only store in town…"The pounding in my ears kept out the rest of the words,only a word here and there got through."…Martha is Mexican …impossible …won't do it …" To this day I don't remember if I got in trouble in P.E. for being late or how I made it through the rest of the afternoon. The next day I was told by the headmaster that there had been a change in policy this year that whoever was awarded the jacket would be charged fifteen dollars and if the pri ze winner was unable to pay the money it would be given to the next one in line.That was unfair! I cried all the way home, so by the time I got home,my eyes were red and puffy(肿大的). I went to Dad,who was working in the bean field. He saw my shadow and looked up.注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语;3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语.Paragraph 1:He waited for me to speak.----Paragraph 2:It was a very sad and upset girl who dragged into the headmaster's office the next day.----答案和解析1.【答案】【小题1】D【小题2】C【小题3】C【解析】1.D.细节题.根据文章第二段内容,It was just too late,with all the details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying last minute gifts,to take the time to select the "right bike" for our little girl.现在已经太迟了,我们没有时间为我们的小女孩选择一辆"合适的自行车",因为我们要准备圣诞晚餐和购买最后时刻的礼物.结合选项,故选D.2.C推理题.根据文章最后一段内容, At that moment,we would have moved heaven and earth to buy her every bicycle on the planet! 可知,在那一刻,"我们"会竭尽全力为她买下地球上的每一辆自行车!父母因为小女儿宁愿留着这辆车,也不愿将它换成一辆真正的自行车而感动,并且为她感到骄傲.故C项正确.3.C.主旨题.文章主要介绍了一对父母为了满足女儿圣诞节心愿而制作了一辆粘土自行车的故事.文章围绕父亲制作粘土自行车展开,开头介绍制作粘土自行车的缘由,之后介绍粘土自行车送给女儿之后的结果.结合选项,故选C.文章主要介绍了一对父母为了满足女儿圣诞节心愿而制作了一辆粘土自行车的故事.阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力,要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系,对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断;或根据作者所阐述的观点理论,对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释.考生首先要仔细阅读短文,完整了解信息,准确把握作者观点.4.【答案】【小题1】B【小题2】D【小题3】A【解析】1.B.细节理解题.根据第一段 And with those flowers comes May Day,a holiday that most people have heard of but have no idea what it's for.随着这些花的到来,五一,一个大多数人都听说过的节日,但不知道它是做什么的.可知五一节这是一个许多人不知道为什么庆祝的节;故选B.2.D.词义猜测题.根据第三段中The protests in Chicago lasted for several days,and on May 3,a strike at McCormick Reaper Works ended in a brawl with police officers.芝加哥的抗议活动持续了好几天,5月3日,McCormick Reaper Works以与警察的争吵告终.由此可知划线词的意思是"战斗",故选D.3.A.主旨大意题.根据第一段April showers bring May flowers,as the saying goes.And with those flowers comes May Day,a holiday that most people have heard of but have no idea what it's for四月的阵雨带来五月的花朵,正如俗语所说.五一节来了,大多数人都听说过这个节日,但不知道它是做什么用的.可知本文讲述的是庆祝五一劳动节的起源.故选A.本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了为什么人们会庆祝五一劳动节.考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.7.【答案】【小题1】D【小题2】A【小题3】B【小题4】A【解析】DABA1.D.细节理解题.根据文章内容可知,该研究是针对接受过减压训练的学生,因此研究中的对照组是指没有接受减压训练的学生.故选D.2.A.细节理解题.根据第四段A total of 205 low-income students did one or both stress-relieving activities.

2020年浙江省杭州高一(下)期中英语试卷解析版期中英语试卷题号I II III IV V VI总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,共20.0分)AOne of the most popular American singers of the twentieth century was Elvis Presley. He made the rock 'n' roll music popular all over the world. He sold millions of records and made many successful films, and he helped change the direction of popular music in the 1960s.Elvis Presley was born in a poor family in 1935. His parents were simple country people who often took him to church, where he learned to sing, and he never forgot the kind of songs that he used to sing in church as a child.When he was young, Elvis moved from T oledo to Memphis in Tennessee, where he attended high school, but he was not a good student. His only real interest was singing. He began to sing in the style that is called "country and western".In 1995 he recorded some songs for his mother's birthday. The people at the recording studio liked his singing and his music. It was country and western music, but it also sounded a little like the music which black people used to sing in the American South. It was called "Blues". Shortly after that, Elvis met Tom Parker, who became his manager and arranged(安排) concert for him across the United States and new recording as well. Soon Elvis became famous around the country. Later Elvis went to Hollywood and began to appear in films such as Love Me Tender and King Creole.But Elvis found it difficult to live with success. Like manyother famous people, he began to take drugs and his health started to suffer. When he died at an early age of 42 in 1977, millions of his fans were shocked, "The King Is Dead!" the newspaper said. But today his memory and his music live on and he will always be remembered as the King of Rock 'n' Roll.1.Who was Tom Parker in the text?A. Another famous singer.B. Elvis' manager.C. A manager of a big bank.D. Elvis' best friend since childhood.2.What caused Elvis' death?A. The pressure from his parents.B. Tom Parker's punishment.C. His taking drugs.D. His singing too much every day.3.What can we learn from the text?A. Elvis didn't get any help from his parents.B. Elvis forgot his church music at a later age.C. The church songs helped Elvis develop his singing.D. The church songs stopped Elvis from developing his own style.BAlthough it is often called the koala "bear", this lovely animal is not actually a bear at all. It is a marsupial (有袋目哺乳动物), and like kangaroos, a female koala carries her baby in her pouch (育儿袋) for about six months.Koalas live in four states only in eastern Australia, where the eucalyptus trees (桉树) they love are most plentiful. In fact, they rarely leave these trees, their sharp claws easily keeping them high up in the air.During the day they sleep for up to 18 hours. When not asleep, they feed on eucalyptus leaves, especially at night. Koalas do not drink much water and they get most of their water from these leaves. Each animal eats a large amount for its size—about two and a half pounds of leaves a day, even storing snacks of leaves in pouches.The koala bears were widely hunted during the 1920s and 1930s and their populations decreased suddenly. Helped by reintroduction, they have reappeared over much of their former range, but their populations are smaller. Koalas need a lot of space—about a hundred trees per animal—which is a pressing problem, as Australia's woodlands continue to get smaller because the trees they live on are being cut down to make farms. Also, forest fires, caused by heat waves, are destroying the forests the koalas live in.It has been estimated (估算) that there are only 100, 000 koalas left in the wild, with the lowest estimates being no more than 43, 000. The koala can only eat eucalyptus leaves and lives nowhere else except Australia, so in order to survive, human effect on its limited environment must be controlled, or this attractive creature faces certain extinction.4.Why are koalas in danger of dying out according to the text?A. Many of them died in the forest fire.B. They can't be used to the global warming.C. Their living environment is gradually being worsened.D. Farmers are burning the eucalyptus trees that koalas live on.5.What happened during the 1920s and 1930s?A. Koalas faced great danger.B. Koala got well protected.C. Koalas' population fell slowly.D. Koala had enough space to live in.6.What will the author most probably talk about next?A. How to increase koalas' population.B. How to make the best of the limited environment.C. How to help koalas get used to the new living environment.D. How to reduce human effect on koalas' living environment.CAround lunchtime today, my son and I were walking in our community's busy "downtown" area. We passed by a homeless man sitting on the street. Since I had no cash on me, all we could give him was a good wish. As we walked by my son asked me "Didn't you have any money to give him?" I said,"I don't have cash." But why don't we ask him if he would like something to eat?On our way back on that street after doing our errand (差事), we saw the same man and asked him if he would like us to get him some lunch. His face brightened up and when I asked what he would like, he just said "anything is fine". So then my son pointed to a rather fancy looking "Parisian café" type of place across the street and we decided to go in there. Well, of course, it was lunchtime and the place was packed! We stood in line for a while, looking at pastries (酥皮糕点) that I knew we were not going to buy. Then we decided on a hot sandwich for the homeless man.After ordering and paying by credit card, we sat and waited...and waited...and not a peep outof my son about why it was taking so long...after some unlucky events with the order and the packing of a "to-go" box, we finally got out of there. My son said "I hope the man is stillthere!" And he was. And he was so happy (it took us so long, I'm sure he must have thought we weren't coming back) ...it made our day. We came home, made ourselves some lunch, and enjoyed the rest of the afternoon.7.Why didn't the author give money to the homeless man?A. He was very poor, too.B. He hated the homeless man.C. He was unwilling to help the poor.D. He had no cash on him.8.What did the homeless feel when asked if he would like some lunch?A. Happy.B. Surprised.C. Concerned.D. Frightened.9.What does the underlined word "packed" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Conquered.B. Busy.C. Crowded.D. Reserved.10.What can be the best title for the text?A. A Sandwich.B. My Son and I.C. A homeless man.D. Lunchtime.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Whether you like it or not,as students,you have to live with roommates after going to school or university.Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences,or easily one ofthe worst.(1)Here are five tips for you to follow to avoid the common mistakes that make good roommate relationships worse.Talk things out.(2) If something happens,sit down with your roommates and have aface-to-face conversation.Complaining about your roommates behind their backs creates nothing but bad situations and general unhappiness.(3) Some roommates become the best of friends,and some don't.Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate to reach this level,especially when you first meet.Remember,you are trying to make a new friend,not frighten your roommate away.And if you roommate doesn't end up being your best friend,there is no need to worry about it.Clean up after yourself.Or at least,keep your things on your side.(4) But being considerate (考虑周到的)with where you put your own stuff(东西)will help you avoid the arguments.Ask before you take.This applies to(适用于)food,clothes and anything else that you don't own.(5) Even if you both agree to share everything you should still ask.A.Don't expect to be best friends.B.Communication is of vital(至关重要的)importance.C.You don't need to keep the room clean and organized all the time.D.Rooms can be really easy for a mess to pile up.E.If you want to have a good relationship with your roommate,it all starts with you.F.Try to make your roommates your best friends.G.Show your roommate that you have respect for his or her things.11.

Thanks to the assistance of tiger sharks, a huge seagrass meadow in the Bahamas Banks has been discovered, offering the world a tool to fight climate change.Seagrass has usually been detected by Earth-orbiting satellites that identify darker spots in the blue water. In a recent study, tiger sharks were selected as research tools due to their highly consistent associations with seagrass ecosystems. They spent 70% of their time in seagrass meadows. The team equipped eight tiger sharks with satellite labels, seven sharks with camera labels, and used a 360-degree camera on a shark for the first time ever.The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered. This reflects a 41% increase from previous estimates of global seagrass. Seagrass can capture (捕获) huge quantities of carbon by photosynthesis (光合作用) and stores it on the seafloor. In terms of climate change, this is excellent news; seagrass is 35 times faster at removing carbon than tropical rainforests. When referring to global seagrass carbon stock estimates, the study indicates that seagrass in the Bahamas may contain 19.2% to 26.3% of all the carbon stored in seagrass meadows on Earth.Yet seagrass meadows are rapidly disappearing, with over 92% of meadows in theUK gone, according to the World Wildlife Fund. Scientists are collecting seeds and trying to grow new seagrass meadows through restoration projects. This new discovery offers optimism and proves the importance of the ocean for healing.The sharks led us to the seagrass ecosystem in the Bahamas, which we now know is likely the most significant blue carbon sink on the planet. What this discovery shows us is that ocean exploration and research are essential for a healthy future. The undeveloped potential of the ocean is limitless. These meadows can be protected and can be copied, offering hope for climate change around the globe.4.How was the seagrass meadow in the Bahamas Banks discovered?A.By analyzing satellites images.B.By keeping track of tiger sharks.C.By using a 360-degree camera.D.By carrying out restoration projects.5.What is the benefit of seagrass in terms of climate change?A.Seagrass provides food for tiger sharks.B.Seagrass stores large amounts of carbon.C.Seagrass absorbs wastes from the ocean.D.Seagrass supplies a habitat to sea animals.6.What is the main message conveyed in the passage?A.Tiger sharks are a tool to detect seagrass meadows.B.Seagrass meadows are disappearing at an alarming rate.C.Scientists are making progress in restoring seagrass meadows.D.Seagrass meadows have a great potential to fight climate change.7.What is the writer’s attitude towards the discovery of seagrass meadows? A.Concerned. B.Positive. C.Doubtful. D.Indifferent.Recently I bought a book about signposts. Signposts aren’t very interesting, you’re thinking. Well, that, of course, depends on whether you happen to be lost! Ancient travelers would have been grateful for these when settlements were smaller and further apart. In winter, the ability to reach shelter for the night could bethe difference between life and death.One of the very earliest waymarks discovered is in Cumbria. Dating from Roman times, it had lain fallen until 1836, when a farmer ploughing his fields came across a sandstone shaft (碑文). There are other stone posts that have stood by roadsides for centuries. It wasn’t until 1697 that an act was passed declaring that guide-stones must be built.This applied to remote parts of the country where there might be confusion as to which path led to the nearest market town. Later, with the appearance of the Royal Mail, the number rose still further. Nowadays many of these early road signs are designated (指定) as Listed Monuments.“How times change!” Lucy, an enthusiastic walker, to whom I loaned the book, exclaimed.“I suppose now we all rely far more upon mobile phones to guide us.”“Yet they aren’t perfect. Whenever I go out, I prefer a map. I never have to worry about running out of battery.”“I’m always grateful to whoever is placing way-markers along the route,” she added, “I suppose that however sure we are, a little outside confirmation is always welcome.”Lucy is quite right there. Life itself can offer us a great many choices of path, and sometimes it isn’t easy to know if we’ve chosen the best one.Perhaps when it comes to gratitude, we should also include thanks for those people who appear in our lives when we most need them — either giving us gentle warning that we might be heading in the wrong direction, or reassurance that we are on the right track. After all, we’d be lost without them!8.What does the underlined word “these” in the first paragraph refer to? A.Signposts. B.Abilities. C.Settlements. D.Shelters. 9.What contributed to the initial spread of signposts?A.The market trade. B.The act passed in 1697.C.The discovery of the sandstone.

The research, published in the journal BMC Medicine, found that diets higher in free sugars –a category that includes sugar added to processed foods and sodas, as well as that found in fruit juice and syrups—raise one’s risk of heart disease and stroke.The study relied on data about the eating habits of more than 110,000 people aged 37 to 73 in the United Kingdom, whose health outcomes were then tracked over about nine years. An author of the study, Cody Watling said sugars that occur naturally in whole fruits and vegetables are not considered “free sugars” and were excluded from the analysis. The researchers estimated participants’carbohydrate(碳水化合物) intakes and then further broke that down by type of carbohydrate to focus on free sugars.Then the authors compared that to the participants’possibility of cardiovascular (心血管的) disease. The people who were found to have the highest risk of heart disease or stroke consumed about 95 grams of free sugar per day, which accounts for 18% of their daily energy intake, Watling said.“Avoiding sugar-sweetened beverages is probably the single most important thing we can do,” said Walter Willett. He added that although there are some health benefits to drinking a small glass of orange juice occasionally, its sugar content means “a glass of fruit juice is the same thing as Coke.”Cody Watling said the study demonstrates that the types of carbohydrates people choose to eat may matter more than the total amount. “What’s really important for overall general health and well-being is that we’re consuming carbohydrates that are rich in whole grains,”he said, while “minimizing the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages.”12.What can we learn from the text?A.Free sugar refers to the sugar added to processed foods.B.Walting didn’t research sugars that occur naturally in whole fruits and vegetables.C.The free sugar accounts for 18%of people’s daily sugar intake.D.Walting suggested us avoiding sugar-sweetened beverages.13.What does the underlined phrase “break down” mean in paragraph 2? A.Classify. B.Destroy. C.Analyze. D.Confirm. 14.Which section of a magazine is this text taken from?A.Health and life. B.Food and Culture.C.Science and Technology. D.Medicine Science.15.What’s the purpose of the text?A.To encourage people to refuse fruit juice.B.To ask people to say no to free sugar.C.To advise people to consume more types of carbohydrates.D.To warn people against diets with higher free sugars.二、七选五Is your glass of milk half-full or half-empty? This saying is often used to test people’s outlook in a situation; do they focus on the positives(a half- full glass)well-being.Why is thinking positively good for you?Research shows that people who are optimistic and think positively tend to experience less stress and cope well when faced with life’s challenges. People who are more pessimistic may find it hard to believe that these challenges will pass. Scientists have even found that thinking positively can make you live longer. According to Professor Tali Sharot, being optimistic about the future can make you happier and more successful. 17Worrying is like a fire alarm.Everybody can worry from time to time. Worrying can help to keep you safe—if you were never worried and were overly positive about how things would turn out, you wouldn’t recognize risks.“ 18 It’s like a fire alarm,” says childpsychotherapist RachelMelville-Thomas. “The trouble is that sometimes it goes off when there isn’t a huge danger to face.” When this happens, you can feel anxious and hopeless about what lies ahead.19Optimism is shaped by your genes, which carry characteristics inherited from your parents, and by what happens to you. 20 Research has shown that it can help to draw or write an outcome that’s positive —for example, an image of you playing guitar, having passed your next grade. Imagining this can motivate you to work to achieve it, such as practicing every day after school.A.Learn to think positively.B.Sometimes worrying can do harm to our health.C.The way you think positively or negatively largely depends on your genes.D.Worrying is our brain warning us that there might be something threatening.E.However, no matter your starting point, everyone can learn to become more optimistic.F.Thinking positively, with a belief that most things will turn out well, is called optimism.G.This’s because you believe your goals are achievable, which encourages you to work towards them.三、完形填空Wildlife has been greatly threatened in the modern age.

期中英语试卷题号I II III IV V VI总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,共25.0分)AI was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare (兔子)and the tortoise (乌龟).At the end I said," Son,remember:Be slow and steady (镇定的),and that will win the race.Don't you think there's something to learn from the tortoise?"Sonny opened his eyes wide,"Do you mean next time when I'm entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy,Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?"I was shocked,"But the tortoise didn't wish that the hare would fall asleep!""He must have wished that," Sonny said,"Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare?He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did." "He didn't have such a wish," I insisted."He won the race by perseverance (毅力),by pushing on steadily."Sonny thought a while."That's a lie," he said."He won it because he was lucky.If the hare hadn't happened to fall asleep,the tortoise would never have won the race.He could be as steady as you like,or a hundred times steadier,but he'd never have won the race.That's for sure."I gave up.Today's children are not like what we used to be.They're just hopeless.1.The writer argued (辩论)with his son because ______ .A. he liked tortoises while his son liked haresB. they disagreed about whether the tortoise was foolishC. he tried to teach his son a moral (品德)lesson but the son had totally differentopinionD. he liked the story of the hare and the tortoise while his son didn't.2.The writer thinks that his generation (一代人)______ .A. are cleverer than Sonny's generationB. have the same ideas about life as Sonny's generationC. are more hopeful than Sonny's generationD. have different ideas about life from Sonny's generation3.According to the passage,who do you think learnt a lesson?______A. The tortoiseB. SonnyC. The hareD. Sonny's fatherBFinding summer jobs for teenagers has not always been easy, but now you no longer have to worry about what your kid can do to earn their own money. Recently I found some different sites online that offer information about what kids can do. Below is some of that information, along with questions to think about to help you come up with your own ideas.Ideas for summer work:●Parks and Recreation Programs.●Babysitting (当临时保姆) during the day of school.●Working part-time at a day care (日托) for the summer.●Car washing.●Working at local vegetable stands.The easiest way for you to find ways for your child to make money is to think about others' inconveniences (不方便). Think of things you need done, or would like to have done, and what you would consider paying for these things to get done. Once you have some ideas, you can sit down with your child and talk to them about what they would be interested in doing. Then once you have an idea of what they want to do you can help them come up with fair prices.Preferably you would want to only have your child working with people you know and trust, or at least you could have your child pick a partner. That way with each of them carrying cell phones, even those without service can call 911, they will be much safer.You can find out more information and many more ideas for kids to use to make money during their summer holidays by visiting .4.The passage is mainly written for______.A. teenagersB. teachersC. parentsD. website designers5.Which of the following is NOT considered when teenagers look for summer jobs?A. Who they'd better work for.B. How much should be paid.C. Whether the jobs are safe.D. Where the workplace is.6.What can we learn about ?A. The author set up the website.B. It gives information about educating children.C. People need to pay to visit the website.D. It offers ideas for children to make money.CMost people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s population is left-handed.Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a person’s two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a person’s hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs.No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However, this doesn’t happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene(基因) for right-handedness, he / she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer thinkleft-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they don’t have to.7.After studying works of art made at different times in history, the scientists found_______.A. the art began from 1,500B. ;C.B. the works of art ended in the 1950sC. most people shown in the works of art are right-handedD. most people shown in the works of art are left-handed8.What is the hand for most people used to do?A. It’s used to find or hold things.B. It’s used to work with things.C. It’s used to make a person’s eyes work together.D. It’s the centre for thinking and doing problems.9.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.B. Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.C. Today children are not made to use their right hands only.D. Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed.10.The best title for this passage is _______.A. Scientists’ New InventionsB. Left-handed PeopleC. Which HandD. Different Brains, Different Hands二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)The way to lift up your mood Everyone has periods in their lives when everything seems very hard,when there's nobody to talk to and the mood (情绪)is just getting worse and worse.(1)The first thing you should try is socializing and thinking positively.It's very hard,because usually when we feel sad we lock ourselves at home and try to think about all the bad things we have.But if you'll try to force yourself and call a friend for a cup of coffee,the chances for changing your mood into better are very good.Just try to avoid bad thoughts.(2)(3) It could be something you wanted for a long time-a short trip,a coat,a ring or anything that could lift up your mood.It doesn't have to be costly,but it has to be good to yourself.Not only giving gifts to yourself can lift up your mood.(4) Think of your friends,family,relatives or even local charities (慈善机构),choose one person and give him a gift.It doesn't have to be something expensive or big.It may be just a little toy to your poor neighbor's child.Making another person feel happy will make you feel good in your heart and mind.Take control of your feelings.Don't let them control you.(5) Just follow the advice above,and start doing something.A.Cry aloud if you feel it is necessary.B.Here are some things that may help you lift up your mood.C.Making yourself feel better isn't that hard.D.Buying things to others may be a perfect way to feel happy.E.Do your best to find someone to talk to.F.Instead,try to think about the bright side of your life.G.You should also try doing something only for yourself,something totally selfish.11.

期中英语试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,共25.0分)ADo you really care who wins Oscars?On February 24 this year,the Academy Awards were presented to actors,actresses,directors,musicians and many other people.Usually they are the "best" and we,the audience,are persuaded that this is true.This year,the nominations (提名)for Best Picture include Black Panther,Bohemian Rhapsody and Green Book.According to many people,these are great movies,as are the performers who bring the stories to life.Whoever wins the award for Best Actor or Best Actress will undoubtedly become a Hollywood star.However,Leonardo had never won an Oscar before 2016,but that doesn't mean that his films aren't amazing.I only need to mention Titanic and The Wolf of Wall Street and you can clearly see that he is an excellent actor.And of course,let's not forget Romeo and Juliet.I'm afraid someone may wrongly apprehend my meaning.I am not saying that those who win Academy Awards are not talented people.They most certainly are talented.What I mean is that I don't think we should judge films and actors by how many awards they have.After all ,at this year's Golden Globe Awards,Ricky Gervais compared the prizes to a doorstop and told the nominees to remember that no one cared about that award as much as they did.So let's not judge an actor or actress just based on what critics (评论家)say.If you want to know how good an actor or actress really is,go and watch the film he or she stars in.1.Why is Leonardo mentioned in the passage?______A. He is one of the writer's favorite film actors.B. He is one of the actors who starred in many films.C. He is the leading actor in many award-winning films.D. He is a good actor who didn't win an Oscar until 2016.2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "apprehend" in Paragraph 4?______A. Express.B. Understand.C. Change.D. Show.3.In the author's opinion,what is the best way to judge an actor?______A. To see if he has won an Oscar.B. To read what critics say.C. To judge him by watching his acting.D. To see how many awards he has won.BChopsticks, or Kuaizi in Chinese, are used to eat Asian food. The earliest evidence of a pair of chopsticks made of bronze was found in the Ruins of Yin near Anyang, Henan Province, dating back to about 1, 200 B. C..Chopsticks are round on the eating end which stands for heaven, and the other end is square which stands for earth. This is because keeping enough food supply is the greatest concern between heaven and earth in Chinese culture.There is no single standard for the use of chopsticks, but better keep some rules in mindwhile eating with them. Playing with chopsticks is considered impolite and rude, just like playing with a fork in a western environment. Besides, chopsticks are not used to move bowls or plates or to play with one's food. Chopsticks are not supposed to stab (戳) food, either. Exceptions include tearing larger items apart such as vegetables. Also, chopsticks should not be left standing up in a bowl of food. Any stick-like object pointing upward looks like the incense sticks that some Asians use as offerings to family members who have died. In addition, never tap chopsticks on the edge of one's bowl, as beggars are believed to make this noise to attract attention. Moreover, chopsticks should not be chewed on, or stay in one's mouth for too long. Today, chopsticks serve many other functions. For example, you can buy a pair of chopsticks as a gift for a newly-married couple as their wedding gift. In Chinese, "chopsticks" reads "kuaizi", which means having sons soon. Skillful craftsmen paint beautiful scenery on chopsticks to make them look like fine artwork. Additionally, it has been said that using chopsticks improves one's memory, increases finger flexibility (灵活性) and can be useful in learning and improving skills such as Chinese character writing and brush painting.4.We may probably find this passage in ______ .A. a posterB. a magazineC. a travel guideD. an advertisement5.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Traditional rules for using chopsticks.B. Different standards to use chopsticks.C. Some exceptions to use chopsticks.D. Cultural backgrounds for using chopsticks6.The writer probably agrees ________.A. chopsticks can help keep enough food supplyB. stabbing food with chopsticks is never allowed in ChinaC. standing chopsticks up in a bowl of food is traditionally acceptedD. Chinese brush painting learners may benefit from using chopsticksCA new study, a project of the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, finds that a fitness tracker (健康追踪器) probably does not help with weight loss.The trackers are designed to record your physical activity. They are usually worn around the wrist (手腕), where they record a person's heart rate. The research team looked at two groups of people. The first wore a fitness tracker and took part in health consultation with experts for best weight-loss plan. The researchers compared this group with people who only got health consultation.The study found that those only speaking with the health experts lost nearly 6 kilograms, but those using a fitness tracker lost only 3.5 kilograms. John Jakicic, the lead researcher, questioned the use of these trackers for weight loss.The study involved 470 people aged between 18 and 35. Some of them were overweight, while others were considered obese. Over three fourths of them were women. All were told to increase physical activity and start on a low-calorie diet. They had their weight measured once every six months. After six months, researchers divided the group into two parts: one continued with monthly consulting, while members of the other group were given a fitness tracker. Eighteen months later, both groups showed great improvements in fitness, physical activity and diet, with no big difference between groups. However, when it came to losing weight, the people who only spoke with experts lost nearly twice as much weight.Jakicic said, "The study's findings are important because effective long-term treatments areneeded to deal with America's obesity." More information is needed, he added, to learn how to best use these trackers to help adults who want to lose weight.7.Both groups of people in the study were asked to _______.A. start on a high-calorie dietB. wear a fitness trackerC. consult expertsD. record their heart rates8.Why does Jakicic think the findings are important?A. Wearing fitness trackers hardly helps people lose weight.B. Physical activity and diet have no effect on weight loss.C. Dealing with obesity needs effective long-term treatments.D. There are great differences in health between both groups.9.What can we infer about the study mentioned in the text?A. The study went on for about two years.B. More than 120 men took part in the study.C. Health consulting helps lose almost 6 kilograms.D. Wearing a fitness tracker is useful for keeping slim.10.The purpose of the text is to _______.A. describe how the researchers carried out the studyB. show regular consulting for weight control is necessaryC. persuade readers to wear fitness trackers for weight controlD. warn women are more likely to suffer from weight problems二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Be the friend everyone wants Some people seem to have a special talent for making friends.Being with them,you feel like you're the most interesting person in the world.How do these "friend magnets (磁铁)" do it?It's simple:they're truly interested in people.The people they meet feel important and special,so they return the favor by wanting to be their friends! (1)Ask questions and listen to the answers.Have you ever been in a conversation with someone and thought,"Wow,that person is really interested in what I have to say!" Chances are that he was asking you questions and truly listening to your answers.In a conversation,ask people about things they are interested in or their opinions on something.(2) If you land on a topic that someone is excited about,bingo!Watch your body language.(3) If you are interested in what someone has to say,you'll most likely smile encouragingly,and meet her eyes.Otherwise,you'll probably stare into space or tap your foot.(4) Is it hard to picture yourself walking down the hall handing out praise to everyone?(Nice jacket,Principal D!"

Once a week his teacher, Miss Evans,drew a ticket out of a jar (广口瓶), and let the winner choose a prize.Karl couldn't believe his luck.The golden ticket was going to be drawn, and here was another ticket, just for him . He looked around, but no one else was near the ticket.All his classmates were at their desks, laughing and talking with each other.Karl decided to write his name on the blank line.Then he could put it into the prize jar with the tickets he'd already earned.With so many chances,at least one of his tickets would be picked! Then he could choose the pink pig as his sist er's birthday present, just like what he had been hoping for.He smiled and reached for the pencil in his pocket. Suddenly his fingers stopped. There was a strange feeling in his chest (胸膛), and it wasn't his heartbeat.He looked out of the window and tried to figure it out (弄清楚).He did find the ticket, but he hadn't earned it.Maybe whoever lost it was looking for it.But he needed this extra ticket for his great plan!He remembered what Dad had told him and his sister.

2020年浙江省高一(下)期中英语试卷附答案
期中英语试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,共25.0分)ADo you really care who wins Oscars?On February 24 this year,the Academy Awards were presented to actors,actresses,directors,musicians and many other people.Usually they are the "best" and we,the audience,are persuaded that this is true.This year,the nominations (提名)for Best Picture include Black Panther,Bohemian Rhapsody and Green Book.According to many people,these are great movies,as are the performers who bring the stories to life.Whoever wins the award for Best Actor or Best Actress will undoubtedly become a Hollywood star.However,Leonardo had never won an Oscar before 2016,but that doesn't mean that his films aren't amazing.I only need to mention Titanic and The Wolf of Wall Street and you can clearly see that he is an excellent actor.And of course,let's not forget Romeo and Juliet.I'm afraid someone may wrongly apprehend my meaning.I am not saying that those who win Academy Awards are not talented people.They most certainly are talented.What I mean is that I don't think we should judge films and actors by how many awards they have.After all ,at this year's Golden Globe Awards,Ricky Gervais compared the prizes to a doorstop and told the nominees to remember that no one cared about that award as much as they did.So let's not judge an actor or actress just based on what critics (评论家)say.If you want to know how good an actor or actress really is,go and watch the film he or she stars in.1.Why is Leonardo mentioned in the passage?______A. He is one of the writer's favorite film actors.B. He is one of the actors who starred in many films.C. He is the leading actor in many award-winning films.D. He is a good actor who didn't win an Oscar until 2016.2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "apprehend" in Paragraph 4?______A. Express.B. Understand.C. Change.D. Show.3.In the author's opinion,what is the best way to judge an actor?______A. To see if he has won an Oscar.B. To read what critics say.C. To judge him by watching his acting.D. To see how many awards he has won.BChopsticks, or Kuaizi in Chinese, are used to eat Asian food. The earliest evidence of a pair of chopsticks made of bronze was found in the Ruins of Yin near Anyang, Henan Province, dating back to about 1, 200 B. C..Chopsticks are round on the eating end which stands for heaven, and the other end is square which stands for earth. This is because keeping enough food supply is the greatest concern between heaven and earth in Chinese culture.There is no single standard for the use of chopsticks, but better keep some rules in mind while eating with them. Playing with chopsticks is considered impolite and rude, just like playing with a fork in a western environment. Besides, chopsticks are not used to move bowls or plates or to play with one's food. Chopsticks are not supposed to stab (戳) food, either. Exceptions include tearing larger items apart such as vegetables. Also, chopsticks should not be left standing up in a bowl of food. Any stick-like object pointing upward looks like the incense sticks that some Asians use as offerings to family members who have died. In addition, never tap chopsticks on the edge of one's bowl, as beggars are believed to make this noise to attract attention. Moreover, chopsticks should not be chewed on, or stay in one's mouth for too long. Today, chopsticks serve many other functions. For example, you can buy a pair of chopsticks as a gift for a newly-married couple as their wedding gift. In Chinese, "chopsticks" reads "kuaizi", which means having sons soon. Skillful craftsmen paint beautiful scenery on chopsticks to make them look like fine artwork. Additionally, it has been said that using chopsticks improves one's memory, increases finger flexibility (灵活性) and can be useful in learning and improving skills such as Chinese character writing and brush painting.4.We may probably find this passage in ______ .A. a posterB. a magazineC. a travel guideD. an advertisement5.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Traditional rules for using chopsticks.B. Different standards to use chopsticks.C. Some exceptions to use chopsticks.D. Cultural backgrounds for using chopsticks6.The writer probably agrees ________.A. chopsticks can help keep enough food supplyB. stabbing food with chopsticks is never allowed in ChinaC. standing chopsticks up in a bowl of food is traditionally acceptedD. Chinese brush painting learners may benefit from using chopsticksCA new study, a project of the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, finds that a fitness tracker (健康追踪器) probably does not help with weight loss.The trackers are designed to record your physical activity. They are usually worn around the wrist (手腕), where they record a person's heart rate. The research team looked at two groups of people. The first wore a fitness tracker and took part in health consultation with experts for best weight-loss plan. The researchers compared this group with people who only got health consultation.The study found that those only speaking with the health experts lost nearly 6 kilograms, but those using a fitness tracker lost only 3.5 kilograms. John Jakicic, the lead researcher, questioned the use of these trackers for weight loss.The study involved 470 people aged between 18 and 35. Some of them were overweight, while others were considered obese. Over three fourths of them were women. All were told to increase physical activity and start on a low-calorie diet. They had their weight measured once every six months. After six months, researchers divided the group into two parts: one continued with monthly consulting, while members of the other group were given a fitness tracker. Eighteen months later, both groups showed great improvements in fitness, physical activity and diet, with no big difference between groups. However, when it came to losing weight, the people who only spoke with experts lost nearly twice as much weight.Jakicic said, "The study's findings are important because effective long-term treatments are needed to deal with America's obesity." More information is needed, he added, to learn how to best use these trackers to help adults who want to lose weight.7.Both groups of people in the study were asked to _______.A. start on a high-calorie dietB. wear a fitness trackerC. consult expertsD. record their heart rates8.Why does Jakicic think the findings are important?A. Wearing fitness trackers hardly helps people lose weight.B. Physical activity and diet have no effect on weight loss.C. Dealing with obesity needs effective long-term treatments.D. There are great differences in health between both groups.9.What can we infer about the study mentioned in the text?A. The study went on for about two years.B. More than 120 men took part in the study.C. Health consulting helps lose almost 6 kilograms.D. Wearing a fitness tracker is useful for keeping slim.10.The purpose of the text is to _______.A. describe how the researchers carried out the studyB. show regular consulting for weight control is necessaryC. persuade readers to wear fitness trackers for weight controlD. warn women are more likely to suffer from weight problems二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Be the friend everyone wants Some people seem to have a special talent for making friends.Being with them,you feel like you're the most interesting person in the world.How do these "friend magnets (磁铁)" do it?It's simple:they're truly interested in people.The people they meet feel important and special,so they return the favor by wanting to be their friends! (1)Ask questions and listen to the answers.Have you ever been in a conversation with someone and thought,"Wow,that person is really interested in what I have to say!"

期中英语试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,共25.0分)ADo you really care who wins Oscars?On February 24 this year,the Academy Awards were presented to actors,actresses,directors,musicians and many other people.Usually they are the "best" and we,the audience,are persuaded that this is true.This year,the nominations (提名)for Best Picture include Black Panther,Bohemian Rhapsody and Green Book.According to many people,these are great movies,as are the performers who bring the stories to life.Whoever wins the award for Best Actor or Best Actress will undoubtedly become a Hollywood star.However,Leonardo had never won an Oscar before 2016,but that doesn't mean that his films aren't amazing.I only need to mention Titanic and The Wolf of Wall Street and you can clearly see that he is an excellent actor.And of course,let's not forget Romeo and Juliet.I'm afraid someone may wrongly apprehend my meaning.I am not saying that those who win Academy Awards are not talented people.They most certainly are talented.What I mean is that I don't think we should judge films and actors by how many awards they have.After all ,at this year's Golden Globe Awards,Ricky Gervais compared the prizes to a doorstop and told the nominees to remember that no one cared about that award as much as they did.So let's not judge an actor or actress just based on what critics (评论家)say.If you want to know how good an actor or actress really is,go and watch the film he or she stars in.1.Why is Leonardo mentioned in the passage?______A. He is one of the writer's favorite film actors.B. He is one of the actors who starred in many films.C. He is the leading actor in many award-winning films.D. He is a good actor who didn't win an Oscar until 2016.2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "apprehend" in Paragraph 4?______A. Express.B. Understand.C. Change.D. Show.3.In the author's opinion,what is the best way to judge an actor?______A. To see if he has won an Oscar.B. To read what critics say.C. To judge him by watching his acting.D. To see how many awards he has won.BChopsticks, or Kuaizi in Chinese, are used to eat Asian food. The earliest evidence of a pair of chopsticks made of bronze was found in the Ruins of Yin near Anyang, Henan Province, dating back to about 1, 200 B. C..Chopsticks are round on the eating end which stands for heaven, and the other end is square which stands for earth. This is because keeping enough food supply is the greatest concern between heaven and earth in Chinese culture.There is no single standard for the use of chopsticks, but better keep some rules in mindwhile eating with them. Playing with chopsticks is considered impolite and rude, just like playing with a fork in a western environment. Besides, chopsticks are not used to move bowls or plates or to play with one's food. Chopsticks are not supposed to stab (戳) food, either. Exceptions include tearing larger items apart such as vegetables. Also, chopsticks should not be left standing up in a bowl of food. Any stick-like object pointing upward looks like the incense sticks that some Asians use as offerings to family members who have died. In addition, never tap chopsticks on the edge of one's bowl, as beggars are believed to make this noise to attract attention. Moreover, chopsticks should not be chewed on, or stay in one's mouth for too long. Today, chopsticks serve many other functions. For example, you can buy a pair of chopsticks as a gift for a newly-married couple as their wedding gift. In Chinese, "chopsticks" reads "kuaizi", which means having sons soon. Skillful craftsmen paint beautiful scenery on chopsticks to make them look like fine artwork. Additionally, it has been said that using chopsticks improves one's memory, increases finger flexibility (灵活性) and can be useful in learning and improving skills such as Chinese character writing and brush painting.4.We may probably find this passage in ______ .A. a posterB. a magazineC. a travel guideD. an advertisement5.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Traditional rules for using chopsticks.B. Different standards to use chopsticks.C. Some exceptions to use chopsticks.D. Cultural backgrounds for using chopsticks6.The writer probably agrees ________.A. chopsticks can help keep enough food supplyB. stabbing food with chopsticks is never allowed in ChinaC. standing chopsticks up in a bowl of food is traditionally acceptedD. Chinese brush painting learners may benefit from using chopsticksCA new study, a project of the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, finds that a fitness tracker (健康追踪器) probably does not help with weight loss.The trackers are designed to record your physical activity. They are usually worn around the wrist (手腕), where they record a person's heart rate. The research team looked at two groups of people. The first wore a fitness tracker and took part in health consultation with experts for best weight-loss plan. The researchers compared this group with people who only got health consultation.The study found that those only speaking with the health experts lost nearly 6 kilograms, but those using a fitness tracker lost only 3.5 kilograms. John Jakicic, the lead researcher, questioned the use of these trackers for weight loss.The study involved 470 people aged between 18 and 35. Some of them were overweight, while others were considered obese. Over three fourths of them were women. All were told to increase physical activity and start on a low-calorie diet. They had their weight measured once every six months. After six months, researchers divided the group into two parts: one continued with monthly consulting, while members of the other group were given a fitness tracker. Eighteen months later, both groups showed great improvements in fitness, physical activity and diet, with no big difference between groups. However, when it came to losing weight, the people who only spoke with experts lost nearly twice as much weight.Jakicic said, "The study's findings are important because effective long-term treatments areneeded to deal with America's obesity." More information is needed, he added, to learn how to best use these trackers to help adults who want to lose weight.7.Both groups of people in the study were asked to _______.A. start on a high-calorie dietB. wear a fitness trackerC. consult expertsD. record their heart rates8.Why does Jakicic think the findings are important?A. Wearing fitness trackers hardly helps people lose weight.B. Physical activity and diet have no effect on weight loss.C. Dealing with obesity needs effective long-term treatments.D. There are great differences in health between both groups.9.What can we infer about the study mentioned in the text?A. The study went on for about two years.B. More than 120 men took part in the study.C. Health consulting helps lose almost 6 kilograms.D. Wearing a fitness tracker is useful for keeping slim.10.The purpose of the text is to _______.A. describe how the researchers carried out the studyB. show regular consulting for weight control is necessaryC. persuade readers to wear fitness trackers for weight controlD. warn women are more likely to suffer from weight problems二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Be the friend everyone wants Some people seem to have a special talent for making friends.Being with them,you feel like you're the most interesting person in the world.How do these "friend magnets (磁铁)" do it?It's simple:they're truly interested in people.The people they meet feel important and special,so they return the favor by wanting to be their friends!

There,lying on the carpet in front of the bookcase, was a golden ticket! He picked it up.His heart beat faster when he saw that the name line was blank (空白的).The boys and girls in Karl's class could earn golden tickets by doing well in their work or by being extra helpful or kind. Once a week his teacher, Miss Evans,drew a ticket out of a jar (广口瓶), and let the winner choose a prize.Karl couldn't believe his luck.The golden ticket was going to be drawn, and here was another ticket, just for him . He looked around, but no one else was near the ticket.All his classmates were at their desks, laughing and talking with each other.Karl decided to write his name on the blank line.Then he could put it into the prize jar with the tickets he'd already earned.With so many chances,at least one of his tickets would be picked! Then he could choose the pink pig as his sist er's birthday present, just like what he had been hoping for.He smiled and reached for the pencil in his pocket. Suddenly his fingers stopped.
