Their mothers，watch them closely for fear that the children will fall off their bikes. The children are ready to learn how to ride.Rachel Varn still remembers how she felt riding a bicycle for the first time. Now her job is helping children experience that moment. Rachel Varn left her job of selling bicycles to become a trainer for bicycle riding last year.She founded Pedal Power Kids to teach bicycleeducation.Before starting a ride, she teaches the children how to make sure the bicycles are in good condition for safe use. She calls it “the ABC quick check. ” A s is for air，she explains.“We have to check our tires before we ride.” We want to make sure our brakes work before we find ourselves on the top of a hill about to go down.And C is for chain.Shechain must be clean.The rest of the training is more fun. The children learn riding skills,from balance and pedaling to turning,starting and stopping.And theylearn to keep their eyes up and look ahead while riding. Varn says many children struggle to do this, They look down at the pedals (踏板）instead. She adds, “Obviously that doesn't allow them to see wha's going on aroundthem,and it also doesn't allow them to turn properly.”Yarn says watching where you are going helps you turn easier.Learning to ride a bicycle can open a whole new world to children. It gives them a sense of success and freedom. They become more sensitive to their surroundings and better able to make safe，smart decisions going from one place to another.Varn’s goal is to get more children on two wheels. Since starting Pedal Power Kids last year，Varn has helped around 250 new riders.24. How do the mothers feel when the children are ready to learn riding?A. Confident.B. Nervous.C. Excited.D.

What benefit can riding a bicycle bring according to the passage?A. It opens a new world to the mothers.B. It gives children a sense of achievement.C. It helps children stay away from video games.D. It makes children familiar with the surrounding.I used to live in South Africa and recently went back to Botswana to visit the Central Kalahari Game Reserve with my friend Oscar. There is nothing quite like the vast African wilderness.Our jeep broke down suddenly along the too -hot-to-touch sand.With such an engine，it was tough work. The dry heat was fierce and the only break came from using our precious water for brief bucket showers.With no supplies available within the park—it was a sort of no man ’ s land with the occasional cow—it’s necessary to bring all your fuel，food and water with you. We camped in a small open space of the bush. At the height of the dry season，shade was in very little supply，so we angled ourselves near a lonely leafless tree. As the sun was settingf we drove towards the watering hole a few miles away，and were reminded just why we’d chosen to spend weeks experiencing this difficult，unpleasant，and painful exercise on ourselves. Realizing our arrival，a lone lion stopped his drinking. He yawned(打哈欠），then carried on drinking.That night，sleeping on the roof of the jeep，we felt his roar(吼叫）as much as we heard it. All movements and activities stopped，but when bright satellites flashed across the black- ness，the vast African skies offered the only sign that the outside world hadn't come to a standstill.In the morning we saw that the lion had walked on the road overnight，his paw prints pressed into yesterday' s tyre tracks. We set off for another morning inching through the sand; another day of shifting landscapes and raw(原始的），wild beauty； another night lit by fireflies and shooting stars.28. What can we learn from the passage?A. The author and his friend toured the Reserve without difficulty.B.There were many cows in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve.C. The lion walked along the tyre tracks and attacked the jeep at night.D. The author and his friend suffered much heat in the daytime.29. What does the underlined word “precious” mean in the passage?A. Clean.B. Enjoyable.C.Valuable.D.Enough.30. What can you infer from the last paragraph?B. The lion didn’t get close to the author’s jeep at night.C. The author didn’t think the reserve worth visiting.D. The natural beauty appealed to them to go on bravely.31. Which of the following is the best title?A.A Roaring LionB.An African Wilderness TourC.Extremely Hot WeatherD.African Wild BeautyDOn a winter day in early March of 2018» a group of teachers were sitting in rows in a meeting room at the Bethlehem school district center. Mary Doe Donecker，an educational expert from an organization，stood in the front of the room，calling out words：“Tell me the first sound you hear in ‘Eunice’？”This was a class on the science of reading. The Bethlehem district has spent about $ 3 million on training，materials and support to help its early elementary teachers and principals learn the science of how reading works and how children should be taught. In the class，teachers spent a lot of time going over the sound structure of the English language.Since the starting point for reading is sound，it’s important for teachers to have a deep understanding of this. But research shows they don’t. Michelle Bosak, who teaches English as a second language in Bethlehem，said that when she was in college，she was taught almost nothing about how kids learn to read. Bosak was one of the first group of teachers in Bethlehem to attend the new，science—based classes.For many teachers，the classes were as much about forgetting old ideas about reading as they were about learning new things.First — grade teacher Candy Maldonado thought she was teaching her students what they needed to know about lette rs and sounds. But that was it. She didn’t think it was important to talk in detail about how words are made up of sounds and how letters represent those sounds.Maldonado had been a teacher for more than a decade. She had no idea how kids learn to re ad. It was “almost like it’s automatic(自动的）” to her.So her first reaction (反应）after learning about the reading science was shock： Whyyears?32. Who were the classes intended for?A.The high school teachers.B.The elementary students.C.The educational experts.D.The elementary educators.33. What do we know about Michelle Bosak?A. She deeply understood reading science at first.B. She teaches English as mother language in Bethlehem.C. She was among the first teachers to attend the classes.D. In college she was taught about how kids learn to read.34. How did Maldonado react after she attended the reading science?A.She was pitiful and shameful.B.She was shocked and excited.C.She was worried and guilty.D.She was shocked and guilty.35. What’s the main idea of the whole passage?A.Teachers learn the science of reading.B.Teachers have trouble in reading.C.What teachers do with reading.D.How teachers learn reading English.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。
河南省驻马店市新蔡县第一高级中学2023-2024学年高一下学期6月月考英语试题
河南省驻马店市新蔡县第一高级中学2023-2024学年高一下学期6月月考英语试题一、阅读理解When we’re in trouble, we always turn to our parents for help. But would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions (延伸) of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends?In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with the latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day-to-day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation (动机) to educate themselves about social networking sites.These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them, there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy (隐私) that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated (违背) when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “refuse” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their children overlook (忽略) their requests. When a teenager overlooks a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that he is hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of his life where he wants to be independent.Perhaps talking with parents and explaining would help soften the blow if you do choosenot to add them to your friend list.1．What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A．Parents feel se cure about their privacy online.B．Parents have realized the importance of social networks.C．Social networks successfully fill the generation gap.D．Social networks offer a chance for parents to communicate.2．What maybe the reason for teenagers to refuse a parent’s friend request?A．Their parents make negative comments on them.B．They hide something from their parents.C．Their parents tend to fall behind in technology.D．They are unwilling to be watched by parents.3．What does this overlook of a parent’s friend request by a teenager potentially indicate?A．The teenager is hiding something from his parents.B．The teenager does not respect his parents’ requests.C．The teenager wants to be independent in certain aspects of his life.D．The teenager is unfamiliar with the use of social media.4．What is the passage mainly about?A．Parents’ friend requests.B．Privacy online.C．The generation gap.D．Social networks.Tea culture is varied in different countries by the way tea is made and drunk, and by the places for tea drinking. How to make tea may be different. According to the ways of making tea, tea is classified into white tea, green tea, black tea, etc. And how to prepare tea may be different, too. In Tibet, tea is commonly boiled with salt and butter. People may drink tea at home or in public, for example, at tea houses.As part of culture, tea has a relationship with history, health, education, communication and so on. It is commonly used at social activities. For example, afternoon tea is a British custom. Families or friends can communicate with each other while having afternoon tea.Tea has remained a way of daily life in China and drinking tea has a lot of advantages. It makes people less tired, clears heat in the human body and helps people lose weight.Chinese people are good at using tea to make other things delicious. Tea, originally served as a medicine in ancient times, is now not just a kind of drink, but also excellent seasoning (调味品). Here are two delicious dishes made with tea:Tea Eggs: You can find them cooked and sold in street markets in almost every city in China. Dragon Well Tea Shrimp (龙井虾仁). It’s one of the most well-known dishes in Hangzhou. Before you drink tea please check the following tips:◆Drink tea hot.◆The best time to drink is in between meals. It is bad for your stomach if you drink tea just before meals, during meals or soon after meals.◆Do not drink too much strong tea.5．Which of the following is similar to the underlined phrase “classified into”?A．carry out B．sort out C．turn into D．burst into 6．Afternoon tea in Britain is a ___________ according to the passage.A．weekend activity B．hobby C．way ofcommunication D．game7．In ancient China, tea was originally served as ___________ according to the pas-sage.A．a drink B．a dish C．seasoning D．a medicine8．The passage doesn’t mention ___________.A．ways of making tea B．places to drink teaC．tools for drinking tea D．advantages of drinking teaIn a world where nearly 6 million fingerprint records of government employees are stolen in one computer hack, and where millions of people are victims of identity theft every year, the next step in cyber-security may well be mapping your brain.Researchers at Binghamton University are working on a biometric (生物特征的) system that records how your brain reacts to certain images. With a little more polishing, the scientists’ brainchild could become the way you get into a safe deposit box, your office or past scanners at the airport. It could replace the password for your online banking, your e-mail or your social media accounts.They started their project by measuring the brain waves of 30 subjects. The subjects werefitted with a cap that had 30 electrodes attached to it, and then shown various images and symbols — celebrity faces, words, pictures of food — on a computer screen in 200-millisecond bursts. The brain’s reaction was recorded.The idea is that every time a person needs to use a “password”, he or she goes through the same procedure, and the results are matched to their first-time reaction. If the “brainprint” is cracked — like what happened to the fingerprint records — then the system is merely reset by running another set of images and collecting a different set of brain waves.“Even if that was stolen, you could just cancel it and record one to something else”, says professor Laszlo.Laszlo and her team have shown that their system can be 100 per cent accurate. So one of the most difficult parts of making the system practical already has been overcome. Now, they’re spending much time recording accurate brainprints with as few as three electrodes, which could make recording in the future as easy as wearing a pair of special glasses. They’re also working with cheaper materials and different methods to see if they can bring the cost down.9．What does the underlined word “brainchild” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．The brain function.B．The biometric system.C．The fingerprint record.D．The online password.10．Why were the images and symbols shown to the subjects?A．To match brainprints with pictures.B．To check the brain’s reaction.C．To create their brainprints.D．To connect brain waves to electrodes. 11．What will happen when a brainprint fails?A．A new one will be set again.B．A spare one will be ready beforehand.C．The users’ security will be threatened.D．The fingerprint record will replace it. 12．What are the researchers doing with the programme now?A．Improving its accuracy.B．Making it user-friendly.C．Recording more brainprints.D．Increasing the number of electrodes.If you’re a teen artist, this is the perfect challenge for you.

He immediately pulled up to investigate. 21 was climbing up the front porch. Hurrying out of the 22 , he yelled, “Help, fire!” A car drove past and Nick tried to 23 it to stop, but in vain.He ran to the back door, sure it would be 24 . To his amazement, it swung open. Without 25 , Nick ran inside, peering into rooms to see if anyone was home. He had just started climbing when he 26 and saw four faces emerge at the top of the stairs. After Nick’s warning, they came pouring down and rushed out.“Anybody else in there?” Nick asked. When told a 6-year-old was still in, he ran back. By now, thewhole house was in flames. The smell was 27 . The smoke was thick. He lifted his T-shirt to cover his mouth and nose. As he hesitated, he heard the kid crying 28 . Nick stumbled into the blackness, 29 on smoke. His 30 stayed alert as he moved toward the sound. Then suddenly the kid was in front of him and Nick quickly grabbed her into his arms. The flames were 31 even closer. Nick took a few steps 32 and threw himself out of the window. Outside, the firefighters had arrived. He handed over the girl — crying, but miraculously uninjured 33 a cut on her arm — before collapsing on the sidewalk.Nick’s burns have mostly healed, but other changes have been far greater.

河南省驻马店市2023-2024学年高一下学期7月期末英语试题一、阅读理解From the food ingredients, the placing on the plate to the background music and much more, chefs and companies in the UK are planning to change our dining experiences, and the trends in dining out. EntomophagyThis is a proper term for eating insects! Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice. It hasn’t quite happened yet because we all think insects are extremely unpleasant. But, many chefs are already experimenting in the field.A number of top chefs in London are using their cooking creativity to turn something unpleasant into something delicious. Tech at the TableDigital products will probably become a common part of our food and drink experiences in the near future. We’re going to see things like tablets and computer screens that can tell stories around the food we are eating. We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better. The Experimental Meal The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining—music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes—as a whole meal. They are trying to put different things together instead of having dinner and then going to the theatre, why not bring the two together? The same goes for cinema and music.1．What is the reason for some people to turn to insects for food?A．The better taste of protein from insects.B．The popularity of some chefs in London.C．The possibility of main food disappearing.D．The performance of some chefs’experiments.2．Why is the color of plates changed digitally?A．To make the food healthy.B．To make the food attractive.C．To make the plate funny.D．To make the plate eco—friendly.3．Why do some people prefer the experimental meal?A．To connect senses in a new way.B．To bring colorful plates together.C．To combine food with digital products.D．To carry out technology experiments.Robin Emmons has grown more than 26, 000 pounds of vegetables to help more than 72, 000 people in Charlotte, North Carolina, who have no way to get fresh healthy food. Access to fresh food is an issue for many communities throughout the United States. According to the Department of Agriculture, nearly 10% of the U. S. population live in low-income areas more than a mile from a supermarket. For residents who lack transportation, buying fresh food is even more difficult.Discovering this problem inspired something inside Emmons, who quit her job to devote herself to a more meaningful thing. She said, “I decided to plant vegetables in my whole backyard, and it just kind of snowballed from there.” Today, Emmons has 200 volunteers helping her tend 9 acres of vegetables on three sites. Since 2008, she says, her nonprofit organization, Sow Much Good, has grown more than 26, 000 pounds of fresh produce for underserved communities in Charlotte.Customers greatly appreciate all that Emmons and her group are doing. She tries to make her produce as affordable as possible. Since Bolin discovered Emmons' produce stand this summer, she has visited it regularly. “I really appreciate all the beautiful and fresh vegetables,” said Bolin, 38. “It's making me and my family healthier.” Keeping it going is a labor of love for Emmons, who spent years doing it for free. Since last week, she has taken a small salary (薪水).Emmons would love to expand her organization across the country, changing food deserts wherever they exist. For now, she's devoted to helping Charlotte residents. “When I see people coming to the farm stand, I feel encouraged,” she said. “I feel like I am giving them a gift—a healthier, longer and better life.”4．Who may need Emmons' help most?A．People fond of planting.B．People lacking fresh food.C．People living in Charlotte.D．People living near supermarkets.5．Why did Emmons leave her job?A．She wanted to help others.B．She was tired of her job.C．She liked planting vegetables.D．She wanted to earn money.6．What is the most important effect of Emmons' deeds?A．People earn a higher income.B．More vegetables are accessible.C．She wins worldwide popularity.D．Her organization makes a profit.7．Which of the following words best describe Emmons?A．Brave and kind.B．Helpful and appreciative.C．Ambitious and devoted.D．Generous and disciplined.When making decisions, most people view cost as an important consideration. While price is undoubtedly important, what about some hidden costs that also come into play? For example, what are the long—term effects of your decision? Have you considered how your decision impacts your relationships? Simply put, hidden costs may be invisible to the naked eye, but they're very visible (可见的) to your wallet. Ignoring these factors can cost you a lot.Consider a scene where a manager cuts costs by asking some workers to leave. While this move reduces salary expenses, how will it impact the morale (士气) and loyalty of the remaining employees? Similarly, imagine somebody spending hours surfing the web, lost in searching for cheaper things. The question is whether the savings equal the spent time. If cost is your only consideration, you'll pay the price. Price Isn't the Only Cost!Furthermore, even if cost is the only factor in your decision—making, all of the “true costs” should be considered. For example, if you're thinking about buying new technology the equipment cost is only part of the price. People will need training, the software may need customization, and you'll probably lose productivity until people get up to speed. Those are real costs too.In addition, even when price is the main consideration, it's important to tell the difference between price and value. For example, when you're investing in a high—quality product from a famous organization, compare maintenance (保养) and repair costs with its competitors, assess the product life span, and hear what existing customers have to say. As the old saying goes, “You get what you pay for.”Always keep in mind that every time you say “yes” to one thing, you're certainly saying “no” to another. So, in decision—making, always consider invisible costs. This ensures you're aiming for the best solution rather than a good one. After all, choices are easy. The tough part is livingwith them.8．What does the underlined phrase “come into play” in paragraph I mean?A．Come into sight.B．Play a part.C．Come into use.D．Play around. 9．What may be the hidden cost of firing workers?A．Reducing salary expenses.B．Cutting costs of the company.C．Doing wonders for the workers' morale.D．Discouraging the remaining workers. 10．How is the passage mainly developed?A．By giving examples.B．By listing figures.C．By using space order.D．By explaining concepts.11．What can we learn from this passage?A．You get what you pay for.B．Price is the main consideration.C．Considering the best solution is easy.D．Be thoughtful when making decisions.As cities balloon with growth, visits to zoos provide an increasingly important opportunity for contact with other species. Though zoos were originally created to help people learn about animals that they had never seen, zoos have a serious role as conservation organizations. Many zoos consider conservation education to be important, and hope to encourage positive attitudes toward animal conservation among their visitors.Traditionally, zoos educate visitors by displaying information. Zoos often attach boring signs to exhibits, describing an animal’s habitat and lifestyle in the wild as well as whether or not the species is endangered. But recently, psychological research has shown that vivid emotional experiences not only attract more attention, they are also better remembered. The scary or funny animal exhibits at the zoo encourage people to pay more attention to information about the animals than they would pay to a written description.The majority of zoo visitors come with family members or on school field trips. Social interactions are thus a key part of the zoo visit. And when people are looking at the animals, there seems to be a tendency to tell what they see to others. In my research at zoos, I found that almost nine out of ten visitors would share their observations of an animal by pointing it out to their companions, or simply by saying “look!”. Social interactions like these are opportunities to create and communicate shared values. Parents who stand in front of an animal exhibit and say “Themommy is looking after her baby.” or even “Look at that!” is giving their children a reason to care about the animal.Zoos can create a culture of conservation. The best exhibits should be the ones that place animals in their natural habitats, where people care for their needs. In this way zoos can help to prevent the disappearance of wild animals from our sight and from our minds.12．What was the original purpose of building the zoo?A．To feed the animals.B．To meet people’s curiosity.C．To bring entertainment to kids.D．To save endangered animals.13．What is the author’s attitude towards the zoo’s traditional way of education?A．Uninterested.B．Positive.C．Negative.D．Unclear. 14．What do people tend to do when appreciating animals?A．They shout to animals.B．They offer their food.C．They take photos of animals.D．They share what they see.15．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A．The Zoo Attracts People to Visit Animals.B．Communicate with Nature in the Zoo.C．The Zoo Offers Protection to Animals.D．Learn to Care About Animals in the Zoo.Art isn't always an easy and straightforward thing to understand, and it can be hard to appreciate because it has been seen as something that only particularly educated or wealthy people can enjoy. 16 . Anyone can come to appreciate art with a little bit of time and effort.Understand the art and then go a step deeper to understand the artists, their intentions and the historical backgrounds. Artists often create works to comment on major historical events.17 . For example, Pablo Picasso's Guernica (1937) was created in response to the bombings during the Spanish Civil War. It's filled with anti—war symbolism. Picasso said of the artwork, “Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war against cruelty and darkness.”18 . Art movements grow from popularity of certain ways of creating art. An art school is basically a group of artists, sometimes all in the same region, who all have a similar style or subject matter. Knowing a little bit about these can help you understand why an artist might have made certain choices. For example, painters in the Egyptian school of art had certain rulesthat they had to follow—like the size of any figure they drew was supposed to vary based on the social status of the person they were painting. 19 . Each one symbolized a different aspect of life or death.Check out the life experiences of the artists. Learning a bit about the artists who created a piece can help understand it in a variety of ways. It can help you understand why they made certain artistic decisions. 20 . She had limited mobility after fighting against a serious disease and suffering a bus accident in her early life. Her pain and struggle appears in several of her pieces.A．But our tips will give you a new wayB．Art movements sometimes inspired artistsC．They also couldn't use more than six colorsD．However, this couldn't be further from the truthE．This can give you a window into their unique opinionF．For example, Mexican painter Frida Kahlo had suffered a lotG．Learn about the art movements or schools that influenced the piece二、完形填空It’s the first day of the new term.

It was getting darker and darker. I felt so scared that tears rolled down my face again. David attempted to comfort me. He told me that he once made some marks on the trees in the forest, which might help us find the way home. Therefore, we made efforts to look for the marks but in vain. Having walked anxiously for about an hour in the forest, we failed to find our way out.Paragraph 2It was completely dark when we saw fireworks(烟火) being set off in the distance. We ran excitedly in that direction as fast as possible. Soon we found my aunt’s house, in front of which my cousin Kristy was holding some fireworks and lighting them. Seeing us back safe, Kristycheerfully hugged us. She told us that when noticing we had been away for long, she was concerned about our safety. She set off fireworks to draw our attention and guide us. It was an unforgettable experience. Without David’s comfort and Kristy’s fireworks, I would have lost in the forest forever.附：听力录音材料Text 1W: Mr. Johnson, I’ve been working hard for two months. I really need a break from work.

Social networking dominates our life in so many ways. I am the one who is addicted to it. Sometimes I set deadlines for myself : I will start doing my homework at 8 pm and finish it in two hours. At 7:50 pm, I’m scrolling through my friends’ silly posts and photos. Before I know it, it’s 9:30 pm and I haven’t moved an inch from the sofa. I download song after song, video after video, but I’m not really paying attention. The stimulation is in chasing after the next song or video rather than truly enjoying it. Since I spend so much time socialising online, I keep delaying things that are important in my real life: homework, tasks, my good friends and so on. Especially, I miss connecting with my family members in a meaningful way. So it is with my sister.注意：1. 续写内容应为150词左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
