高中英语真题：2015—2016学年高一上学期期末考试试题.doc一、阅读理解(共4题)1.Once upon a time, in a beautiful mountain inn, there was a greedy old innkeeper who was always thinking about money.One day, a rich man stopped at the inn. The innkeeper looked at the guest's fat money belt and she thought, “Oh, if only all that money could be mine!” The rich man requested the most expensive room at the inn, and he went up to his room to dress for dinner.Now, all around the inn there grew beautiful Japanese ginger plants. Many people say that eating buds（芽；花蕾）of ginger makes a person forgetful. This gave the innkeeper an idea.“This evening for dinner I’ll serve ginger bud tempura (日本菜肴)!” she tho ught. “Then, when the rich man leaves in the morning, he’ll be forgetful and leave his money belt behind!” She ran into the kitchen andstarted cooking up the most delicious ginger bud tempura she had ever made.Soon, the rich man went down the stairs and requested dinner. The innkeeper could hardly contain her delight as she served him dish after dish of ginger buds. “Delicious!” said the rich man. When dinner was finished, he went to bed happy and full of ginger buds.In the morning, the innkeeper saw that the rich man off at the front door. As soon as he was out of sight, she raced up to his room. She looked all over the room for the money belt, but she couldn’t find it. Suddenly, she noticed a piece of paper on the floor. It was the rich man’s bill. He had forgotten to pay it! She ran down the stairs, out the front door, and up the road until she was out of breath, but the rich man was already far, far away.(1) What does the author want us to learn from this story?A. Innkeeper are always thinking about moneyB. Trying to take things that belong to others is foolishC. If you ever stay at a country inn, be careful about your moneyD. Helping others is a virtue(2) After he left the inn, we can infer that _______.A. the rich man was very angry at the innkeeperB. the rich man felt lucky that he didn’t lose his moneyC. the rich man was probably not aware that anything had happenedD. the rich man found some of his money was gone(3) What was the piece of paper on the floor?A. a note from the rich manB. a bill for the room at the innC. a piece of writing paperD. a letter the former guest left(4) What’s the best title of this story?A. the greedy innkeeperB. a rich manC. the Japanese gingerD. a kind heart2.Can dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs); it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk ‘dog’ and dogs can learn how to talk ‘cat’.What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn how to read each other’s body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than wepreviously suspected. Once familiar with each other’s presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.The significance of the research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets —to people who don’t get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.(1) What’s the underlined word “swimmingly” in Paragraph 1 closest in meaning to?A. without a messageB. without a problemC. without introductionD. without delay(2) It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs _________.A. have common interestsB. are less different than was thoughtC. have a common body languageD. are less intelligent than was expected(3) What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?A. We should learn to live in harmony.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in peace with animals.D. We should learn more body languages.3. A new study showed that one of the best ways to control greenhouse gas emissions(温室气体排放) is to eat less meat. In fact, the study showed that meat consumption(食用量) in developed countries should be cut by 50% per person before 2050.Meat production and consumption are expected to rise very quickly to a high level by 2050. That’s because the global population is expec ted to grow from the present 7 billion to 9 billion. But also, the diets of people inmany developing countries are changing. Countries that are developing rapidly are seeing a fast rise in protein consumption, especially red meat.Dr. Eric Davidson, the president and senior scientist at the Woods Hole Research Center in Massachusetts, said changing the way people eat can have a great effect on greenhouse gas emissions. People in developed countries, he said, already eat much more protein than the daily requirement.“In the developed world, there is large room for us to manage the frequency with which we eat meat. If there is a growing need for meat, that is going to end up requiring use of more nitrogen fertilizer(肥料) and production of more livestock manure(家畜粪肥), both of which end up resulting in release of various forms of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere,” he said.Davidson said farmers should be encouraged to use fertilizers and manure in a more careful way. “ If we want to meet the gre atest goal of making harmful climate change under control, we need to improve the efficiency(效能) with which we use fertilizers in agriculture. We need to improve the efficiency of the management of manure. And we also need to consider changes in dietary patterns(饮食方式). And that means hopefully better diets in the developing world and better balanced diets in the developed world,” he said.Even if it were possible to turn off all harmful greenhouse gas emissions today, he said climate change would con tinue. “ But that does not mean that we can do nothing for it now, because the sooner we start to take action, the more choices our children and grandchildren will have in terms of beingable to feed themselves and have comfortable lifestyles without environmental degradation(退化),” he said.(1) According to the new study, eating less meat is ________.A. one of the best ways to keep healthyB. an effective way to develop the economyC. the best way to control greenhouse gas emissionsD. a good way to protect the environment(2) In paragraph 4, what does Dr. Eric Davidson mainly talked about?A. The harms of releasing various greenhouse gasesB. The side effects of producing fertilizers and manureC. The effects of growing need for meat on the environmentD. The ways of managing the frequency of eating meat(3) The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to______.A. the environmentB. climate changeC. greenhouse gasesD. the lifestyle(4) In Dr. Eric Davidson’s opinion, _________.A. it’s important to encourage farmers to use fertilizersB. our future generations will live more comfortablyC. a balanced diet is helpful in controlling climate changeD. it’s completely possible to control greenhouse gas emissions4.Odland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman.Thirty years have passed, but Odland can’t get the memory out of his mind, nor the woman’s kind reaction. She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “It’s OK. It wasn’t your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the fut ure Fortune 500 CEO with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.Odland isn’t the only CEO to have made this discovery. Rather, it seems to be one of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. It’s hard to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything, but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you,” or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.” Those who say such things have shown more about their character than about their wealth and power.The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swanson’s Unwritten Rules of Management.“A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says. “I wi ll never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.”(1) What happened after Odland dropped the ice cream onto the woman’s dress?A. He was fired.B. He was blamed.C. The woman left the restaurant at once.D. The woman comforted him.(2) Odland learned one of his life lessons from ________.A. an interesting best-selling bookB. the advice given by the CEOsC. an article in FortuneD. his experience as a waiter(3) According to the text, most CEOs have the same opinion about ________.A. Fortune 500 companiesB. the Waiter RuleC. Swanson’s bookD. the Management Rules(4) From the text we can learn that ________.A. one should respect others no matter who they areB. CEOs often show their power before othersC. one should be nicer to important peopleD. CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurants二、阅读填空(共2题)1.For several years, Americans have enjoyed teleshopping —watching TV and buying things by phone. __36__ In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things.__37__ For example, the biggest Swedish company sells different kindsof things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made $100 million. In France there are two teleshopping channels, and the French spend about $20 million a year to buy things through those channels.In Germany, unple like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason, but at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. __39__ Many Europeans usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.__40__ They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.A. The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be different from the American companies.B. Teleshopping is popular among people.C. German teleshopping business is controlled by American.D. Now teleshopping is starting in Europe.E. They call teleshopping “Junk on the air”.F. Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden.G. German businesses are hoping this new teleshopping will help them sell more things.2.What do people do with their old, out of date but still useful computers? Most people don’t know 61 to do with them. Many old computers are put away in homes. Many more 62 (throw) away as rubbish.Finally, some companies are thinking of ways 63 (bring) down the number of old computers. Sony has agreed to help recycle old Sony products. Dell, Hewlett Packard and other 64 (company) now also take back some old computers.In some countries, laws have been passed, too. Computer companies have to pay for collecting and 65 (recycle) their used products. And 70%of computer waste must be recycled. The idea behind the laws 66 (be) that computer companies themselves should pay for the cost. That will encourage them to make computers 67 (easy) to repair and upgrade (升级).Yet while many people are throwing away good computers, others cannot afford 68 at all. Hundreds of organizations are working to solve this problem. They collect and repair old computers. Some also teach others how to repair computers. 69 computers then go to schools, charities (慈善团体) and people who need them. Giving a used computer to one of these organizations can turn one person’s rubbish 70 someone elseˈs useful things and cut down waste, too.三、完型填空(共1题)1.Six months before she died, my mother moved into an old people's home.

ATourism wasn’t as important as it is today. In the past, only people with a good deal of money could travel on holidays to other countries. More people travel today than in the past because there is a growing middle class in many parts of the world; that is to say, people now have more money for travel. Special plane fares for tourists make travel less expensive and more attractive than ever before. One person doesn’t travel for the same reason as another. But most people enjoy seeing countries that are different from their own. They also like to meet new people and to taste new food.Tourism causes many changes in a country and in people’s lives. People build new hotels and restaurants and train native men and women as guides to show visitors interesting places. There’re new nightclubs and other amusements. International tourism is clearly a big business.1. More people travel today than in the past because______________.A. people have become interested in travelingB. traveling today is easier the in the pastC. people now have spare money for travelD. great changes have taken place in the world2. Which of the following statements is true according to the article?A. Tourism won’t bring any changes in people’s minds.B. With the development of tourism, great changes have taken place in many parts in the world.C. People have some trouble in making journey.D. Tourism causes only some changes in clothing.3. What is the best title of the passage?A. The Change of TourismB. TourismC. The Importance of TourismD. The Cause of Tourism ChangeBI woke up late and had breakfast in a hurry. I had never been late and didn’t want my boss to be unsatisfied. However, it seemed that day wasn’t a lucky one for me from the very second I left my flat. The moment I wanted to rush downstairs one of my stiletto heels (细高跟) broke. I had to return to change my red shoes. I also had to change my purse and other little things that I had tried to match with the shoes. I was sure I would be late for work.On my way to work I had to wait for over half an hour because of an accident. I had no choice but to wait. I phoned my boss and he told me that it was no problem, but he needed me for the meeting with the Japanese clients (客户) that morning.Finally, I arrived at the office one hour later. I had to keep calm and be fresh for the meeting to make the clients sure that our plan was the best for their future commercial (商业的) project. However, I left the plan I had made the night before at home and was going to present (介绍) it to the clients. I was about to get angry when I realized that I had a draft (草稿) of it in my office. At last, the presentation came to an end and it turned out to be a success. But I have to say that I had a terrible day, full of incidents (事件).4. Which of the following is NOT the reason of the writer being late for her work?A. She got up late in the morning.B. She changed her purse and other little things.C. One of her shoe heels broke.D. She had a traffic accident on the way to work.5. According to the passage, what could we learn about the writer?A. Her boss was very angry with her.B. She left her plan on the bus.C. She often arrived at her office on time.D. She was nervous at the meeting.6. According to the passage, which is the correct order of the following events?a. She presented the plan to the clients.b. One of her stiletto heels broke.c. She arrived at the office.d. She phoned her boss.e. She tried to match her purse with her red shoes.A. beacdB. bedcaC. dceabD. edcba7. Which old saying could b e used to describe the writer’s incidents?A. Failure is the mother of success.B. A good beginning makes a good ending.C. Where there is a will, there is a way.D. One trouble never comes alone.CAre you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time—about eight hours after you wake up—your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡；打盹) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap—even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful．8. Why do you sometimes feel sleepy in the early afternoon?A. Because you eat too much for lunch．B. Because it’s hot in summer．C. Because your body temperature goes down at that time．D. Beca use you didn’t have a good sleep last night．9. What can we learn about “naps” according to the last paragraph?A. All the people in warmer climates take naps in the middle of the day．B. Doctors need to take naps while employers don’t．C. If you take naps everyday, you’11 never suffer from heart disease．D. Taking naps regularly is beneficial to people’s health．10. What can we infer from the passage?A. You’ll feel sleepy at regular intervals（间隔）.B. Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.C. You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time.D. If you get up at 6:30 am, you’d better take a nap at about 1:30 pm.11. What would be the best title for the text?A. Just for a RestB. All for a NapC. A Special Sleep PatternD. Taking Naps in Warmer ClimateDOne of Britain’s bravest women told yesterday how she helped to catch suspected (可疑的) police killer David Bieber—and was thanked with flowers by the police. It was also said that she could be in line for a share of up to $30,000 reward money.Vicki Brown, 30, played a very important role in ending the nationwide manhunt. Vicki, who has worked at the Royal Hotel for four years, told of her terrible experience when she had to steal into Bieber’s bedroom and to watch him secr etly. Then she waited alone for three hours while armed police prepared to storm the building.She said, “I was very nervous. But when I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen lined up in the car park, I was so glad they were there.”The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious (怀疑) of the guest who checked in at 3 p.m. the day before New Year’s Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his face. She said, “He didn’t seem to want to talk too much or mak e any eye contact.” Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her bosses Margaret, 64, and her husband Stall McKale,65, who phoned the police at 11 p.m.Officers from Northumbria Police called Vicki at the hotel in Dunston, Gateshead, at about 11:30 p.m. to make sure that this was the wanted man. Then they kept in touch by phoning Vicki every 15 minutes.“It was about ten past two in the morning when the phone went again and a policeman said ‘Would you go and make yourself known to the armed officers outside?’ My heart missed a beat.”Vicki quietly showed eight armed officers through passages and staircases to the top floor room and handed over the key.“I realized that my bedroom window overlooks that pair of the hotel, so I went to watch. I could not see into the man’s room, but I could see the passage (走廊). The police kept shouting at the man to come out with his hands showing. Then suddenly he must have come out because they shouted for him to lie down while he was handcuffed (带手铐).”12. The underlined p hrase “be in line for” in the first paragraph means __________. .A. getB. be paidC. ask forD. own13. Vicki became suspicious of David Bieber because _________. .A. the police called herB. he looked very strangeC. he came to the hotel with little luggageD. he came to the hotel the day before New Year’s Eve14. David Bieber was most probably handcuffed in _________. .A. the passageB. the man’s roomC. Vicki’s bedroomD. the top floor room15. The whole event probably lasted about ________hours from the moment Bieber came to the hotel to the arrival of some armed officers.A. 6B. 8C. 11D. 14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。
