AIn 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never very far away.We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mum's vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn't care much about my bedtime.Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mum was his clerk. That left me in a mess (困惑、迷茫、混乱). I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.Mum and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mum rescued me. I hadn't turned 5 yet.As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder(驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped(包裹) heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d'Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbours of Alaska.1. What can be inferred about the author's family?A. His father was a cruel man.B. His parents didn't love him.C. His parents used to be very busy.D. His mother didn't have any jobs. 2. What happened when the author was 4? A. He learned to smoke. B. He was locked in a basement. C. He was arrested by the police. D. He nearly caused a fire accident. 3. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Leonhard was good at driving dog sleds.B. The author spent his whole childhood in Alaska.C. Leonhard often visited the author's family after 1950.D. The author suffered a lot while taking the dog sled in Alaska. 4. What is the author's purpose of writing the text? A. To look back on his childhood with adventures. B. To describe the extreme weather of Alaska. C. To express how much he misses Leonhard. D. To show off his pride in making trouble.BAround four years ago ,I received a call from the principal (校长)of our school as to the “Parents View ”talk the next morning.He asked me to speak to the group.After the call ,my whole body became feverish and panicky. The time from his call to the next morning seemed like years. The whole night ,I could not sleep with many ominous apprehensions in mind. One of them was to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally ,I gathered some courage. I thought ,“If I miss this opportunity ,surely the school will never invite me again to any of their programs.”I reached the school in time. Before my turn came ,my whole body was trembling. When my turn came and I started speaking ,my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry.I wasn’t even able to read the written speech properly.I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading.That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness ,Public Speaking.After my speech ,I met with the principal and explained what happened to me. He told me that this happens to everyone. Even great speaker ,faced the same things when they started. He suggested that I come again next time.Around one month later ,I was invited to refer to a topic on motivation.This time I was feeling comfortable.My speech was not only appreciated by the principal as well as the teachers ,because I was able to get my idea across to them.They encouraged and praised my efforts.After delivering it successfully ,I became more confident. I said to myself ,“If I can speak in front of such a learned audience ,like the principal who educates others ,I can now speak in front of others too.”I started delivering lectures in my plant,on various topics like Self Motivation,Personality Development,Personal Excellence,Spoken English and Presentation Skills. This has become a passion for me.I learned that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Practice Makes a Man a Better SpeechmakerB.Public Speaking Makes a Man EmbarrassedC.Principal Provides the Best ChancesD.Spoken English Develops in Making Speeches6.The author had bad feelings before the speech because________.A.he disliked the idea of giving a lectureB.he had got a high fever before thatC.he regretted accepting the invitationD.he feared he couldn’t perform it properly7.What does the underlined part“ominous apprehensions”in the first paragraph mean? A.Unlucky opportunities. B.Negative ideas.C.Curious views. D.Happy comments.8.What can we conclude from the passage?A.Nothing is to be got without pains but poverty.B.Knowledge makes humble,ignorance makes proud.C.A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.D.Necessity is the mother of invention.CThe term “smog”was first used in London during the early 1900’s to describe the combination of smoke and fog.What we typically call “smog”today is a mixture of pollutants but is primarily made up of ground-level ozone (臭氧).Ozone can be beneficial or harmful depending on where it stays.The ozone staying high above the Earth protects human health and the environment,but ground­level ozone is responsible for the choking,coughing,and painful eyes associated with smog.The ozone in smog also prevents plants growth and can cause widespread damage to crops and forest. Major smog occurrences often are linked to heavy motor vehicle traffic,high temperatures,sunshine,and calm winds.Weather and geography affect the position and severity of smog.Because temperature regulates the length of time it takes for smog to form,smog can form faster and be more severe on a hot and sunny day.When warm air stays near the ground instead of rising and winds are calm,smog may stay trapped over your city for days. As traffic and other sources add more pollutants to the air,the smog gets worse.Smog is often more severe away from the pollution sources because the chemical reactions that cause smog occur in the atmosphere while the reacting chemicals are being moved by the wind.Smog is a visible example of air pollution.You can look into the distance during the day to see how much smog there is in the air.In addition,pollutants in the air and report the results to the public.meet the standards for at least one air pollutant are called “nonattainment ( areas”.burning in stoves or fireplaces when pollution levels are high; developing encourage carpooling and voluntary “ozone actions”;employee public transportation costs; assess ing “smog fees” on cars according number of miles driven and vehicle emissions (排放) produced; and even breaking up older“super-dirty” cars.9.According to the passage,ground­level ozone can ________.A.damage the environment B.benefit human healthC.protect crops and forest D.limit the spread of smog10.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Air quality is better in time of calm wind.B.Smog is more severe near pollution sources.C.It takes more time for smog to form in hot weather.D.Chemical reactions occur in the moving air and cause smog.11.Which indication shows more exactly the air is poor?A.Heavy motor vehicle traffic in big cities. B.C.Clear outlines of hills in the distance. D.DThat was 10 years ago.We’ve kept in touch, but our phone conversations and twice-a-year visits became on my own life, she obviously ignored.In the past few years I’at my home, she literally follows me from room to room, talking non­excuse to get away from her. I tell her I need to take a nap, but I don’room and read or enjoy the quiet.Here’on their trips to our town to deal with house matters.I let them stay. She told me her husband would start his new job before they finished purchasing this house. I felt obligated to offer her our guest room. If I hadn’t offered,高一英语第3页,共10页高一英语第4页,共10页。

He took the tickets without saying anything, and she heard no more about them until the end of the month, when she got the painter’s bill (账单).

And yet when you travel from one country to another, you will find that people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel that what they eat is normal (正常) and that what other people eat is strange or silly. In most parts of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink a great deal of beer, and the French drink wine every day.The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish (生鱼).So it seems that although eating is a topic we can talk about for hours, there is very little common sense in what we say it. People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.39. Which of the following is true according to the articleA. All people have the same feeling about food.B. In most parts of Asia, people usually haverice for meals.C. People often consider other people to be strange or silly.D. The topic people spend timetalking about is bread and meat.40.

English people drink tea four or five times a day _ .A. because they get thirsty easilyB. because there is plenty of tea in BritainC. because of their drinking habitD. because they have enough time to do soDThe fact that blind people can see things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us to understand our feelings about color. If they can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected (影响) by color without knowing it. Salesmen have discovered by experience over a long period of time that sugar sells badly in green wrappings (包装), that blue foods are considered not agreeable to the taste ,and that cosmetics (化妆品) should never be packed in brown. These discoveries have grown into a whole subject of color psychology (心理学).Some of our preferences (偏爱) are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore connected with calm, while yellow is a day color connected with energy and encouragement. Experiments have shown that colors, partly because they are connected with psychology, also have a direct effect on people’s mind. People in bright red surroundings (环境) show an increase in breathing speed, heartbeat and blood pressure. Red is exciting. Pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming color. Being exciting, red was chosen as the signal for danger, but a closer study shows that a bright yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm, so fire engines in some advanced areas are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop buses, trucks and cars.43. The passage tells us that salesmen have _______.A. found out that colors affect salesB. discovered the relationship between color and psychologyC. tried colors on blind peopleD. developed a special subject of color psychology45.

Color and FeelingsB. Colors and SalesC. The Blind and ColorsD. Preferences for ColorsEAntarctica, with its seemingly endless icy beauty, is one place where one look is worth a thousand words. My own dream to see it came true last January when I joined the sixth exploration crew(考查队) of the China National Marine Bureau. We spent 10 days connecting flights to reach our goal, but finally arrived at the Great Wall Station on Antarctica on the eve of Chinese New Year.There are only two seasons in Antarctica: winter and summer. You get polar nights in winter and polar days in summer. Day is longer than night in summer, and the temperature often reaches below zero. Luckily, there are no snowstorms in summer, which makes it the best season to travel. What I imagined before starting for Antarctica was a world of ice, storms, endless cold and loneliness. When I stopped on Antarctica for the first time, however, I saw rich, energetic and beautiful scenery that was beyond anything I had imagined.We only spent 11 days at the South Pole, but every minute was spent taking pictures and losing our heart to the wonderland. Beauty enveloped us as we watched the world around us. The mountains, oceans, ice, snow, sky, earth and people all seemed to have their own stories.Rocks from Antarctica are considered valuable. Unfortunately, I didn’t bring one back. However, my heavy bags full of films are certainly worth that. It is in these pictures that the true Antarctica comes alive.48.
