考生务必将答案答在答题卡上第一部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）ＡMany centuries ago, all people had to gather seeds and plants to eat. They did not know how to farm or raise animals for food. We call them the Stone Age people because they used stone tools and weapons. You may feel surprised in the world today there are still people who live like the Stone Age people. They live in the places that are hard to reach. Because they have met few people from the outside world, they don’t know about modern inventions. They have not learned ways of doing things from others.For 25,000 years, groups of people have lived alone in the middle of Australia. One of these groups is the Arunta tribe (部落). They do not know how to farm and how to raise sheep or cattle.The Aruntas spend most of their time searching for food and water. The men hunt animals with stone-tipped spears. The women and child ren look for roots, seeds and nuts. They use sticks to dig up the roots. Several Arunta families live together. They have no house. At night, they sleep around small fires.Now other people are moving into the center of Australia. Soon the Aruntas will no longer be a Stone Age people.1. The Stone Age people are called so because they ____.A. gathered seeds and plants to eatB. didn’t know how to farmC. used stone tools and weaponsD. didn’t raise animals for food2. The Arunta tribe has lived ________.A. in t he middle of AfricaB. in the center of AustraliaC. together with other peopleD. in poorly built houses3. Why do the Aruntas still live in the way as they lived before?A. Because they have not yet learned new ways from other people.B. Because they do not want to change their way of living.C. Because other people are moving in and living with the Aruntas.D. Because each family live alone without knowing others.4. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. the Australians live much like the Stone Age peopleB. the Arunta tribe has a history of 25 centuriesC. the Stone Age people have at last disappeared in the worldD. the Aruntas will change their way of living sooner or laterBEveryone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well, which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There's more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people if those don't have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares, if someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.5. The first paragraph tells us __________.A. none needs friendsB. we always need friends around usC. making friends is the need in people's lifeD. we need to be alone6. Which of the following is the most probable place people name afterfriendly people?A. A house.B. A room.C. A library.D. A village.7. If people have friends, they would live longer, because __________.A. they feel happier and healthierB. they get a lot of help from their friendsC. they take better care of themselvesD. both A and C8. This passage tells us __________.A. that people are all friendsB. that people need friendsC. how to get to know friendsD. how to name a placeCThe best way of learning a language is using it. The best way of learning English is talking in English as much as possible. Sometimes you'll get your words mixed up (混合) and people will not understand you. Sometimes people will say things too quickly and you can't understand them. But if you keep your senseof humor , you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes you make. Don't be unhappy if people seem to be laughing at your mistakes. It's better for people to laugh at your mistakes than to be angry with you, because they don't understand what you are saying. The most important thing for learning English is: "Don't be afraid of making mistakes because everyone makes mistakes."9. If people laugh at the mistakes you make, you should ___________.A. be angry with themB. be angry with yourselfC. not careD. believe you are right10. The story tell us:" ___________."A. It is normal (正常的) that we make some mistakes in learning EnglishB. Everyone must make mistakesC. We can avoid making mistakes in learning a languageD. Laughing can help one learn English wellDWhen Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas ar e the country’s second most important export.Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.Education is very important to the Costa Ricans. Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to separate (单独的) schools. Classes begin in March and end in November. The other three months of the year are harvest time and the children have to help their parents to pick coffee beans.11. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?A. How Columbus found Costa Rica.B. How Costa Rica got its name.C. What the Costa Ricans wore.D. What language the Costa Ricans spoke.12.

From December to February, school children in Costa Rica ______.A. ha ve lessons every dayB. have their examinationsC. help their parents pick coffee beansD. help their parents decorate their houses15. This passage is mainly about ______.A. Christopher ColumbusB. Costa RicaC. some products from Costa RicaD. the education of Costa Rica第二节信息匹配（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。

Three groups of people came to the country. They were the Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes. These three groups brought their languages with them to England. After some time, the three languages became one new language—English. The name "English" es from the Angles. They lived in most of England. "England" means "Angle Land" or "Country of the Angles".The language that we speak today—Modern English—is not the same as the English that people used 1500 years ago, including Old English （before ll50）and Middle English（up till 1500）. That language—OldEnglish—sounds different, and it has some different rules of grammar. There were only a few thousand words in Old English.

Modern English has nothing to do with Old English.B. Modern English has more words than Old English.C. Modern English has a vocabulary twice as large as old English.D. There is no difference between Old English and Middle English.BEven before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out of the k itchen, plaining, “Mom, I can’t peel potatoes. I have only one hand.”Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes,” she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying.That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “we’ll see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.“Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow(肘子). Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung I reached. I’ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing.I could hear Mom e into my room. “Mom,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”For a long time, I didn’t hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, hone y, someday you’ll be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint and cracking. I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf（为了我）. She had never let me see her tears.16. Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably todescribe Mom’s attitude when she made the child to peel potatoes?A. Cruel.B. Serious.C. Strict.D. Cold.17. What does the word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. plainingB. sewingC. “I” have only one handD. to peel the potatoes18. What does the sentence “I saw her ‘we’ll see about that’ look” imply?A. Mom believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it.B. The race across monkey bars was not difficult at all.C. Mom was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher.D. What the child had said brought Mom great attraction and curiosity.19. When the child looked down at the kids, they were standing with theirmouths open because ______.A. they felt sorry for what they had done beforeB. they were afraid the author might fall off and get hurtC. they wanted to see what the author would do on the barsD. they were surpris ed to find the author’s progress20. The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is ______.A. the last incident was sad enough to make Mom weepB. the child’s experience reminded Mom of that of her ownC. Mom could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraphD. in fact M om suffered more in the process of the child’s growthCThe older I get, the more I value friends, yet the less time, energy and enthusiasm（热情）I have in maintaining（维持） old friendships and building up new ones.Sunny, one of my dearest friends at work, will leave the office next month for a better job. He is not my first friend from the office to say goodbye. Over the years, there have been a handful of workmates who became friends. In recent times, at least three others have also left. So, nextmonth, I’l l say goodbye to Sunny and I am left with one friend fewer at work. When Sunny told me that he was leaving, I sighed:" With you gone, I will have hardly any friends left in the office!”I began to think: At what point does a workmate bee a friend? And, to take a step back, what does “friendship” mean? Indeed, what makes you form a friendship with a person, but not some other? If a friend is a person I feel pletely fortable calling up at 3 am to get me out of trouble—as Sunny will do—then I don’t have that m any friends. Other than family members, I can depend on just one female friend and three, at best four, male friends. But then, maybe that’s plenty. As someone said, one friend in a lifetime is much, two are many, three are hardly possible.Friendships are different form relationships. You can be great friends with your partner, of course, but a relationship is so much more plex（复杂）. It is not only about that wonderful feeling called love, but also a collection of emotions like jealousy,. resentment（不满）, anger, pain and despair（绝望）. Friendship is simpler and fills you, mostly, with positive emotions—kindness, fondness, warmth and honesty. With a lover, you make demands and have expectations. But with a friend, you’re cool. You don’t really owe him anything, or have to explain much, because you demand nothing more from each other than pleasant pany（陪伴）and an occasional listening ear.Love, I read somewhere, is blind, but friendship closes its eyes. How true.21. Recently, _______ have left the office.A. 3 of my workmatesB. a handful of my workmatesC. all of my friendsD. at least three of my friends.22. The write tells us that friendship and relationship are _______.A. quite differentB. exactly the sameC. more or less the sameD. both true23. By citing（引用）“One friend in a lifetime is much, two are many,three are hardly poss ible.”, the writer implies “_______”A. a true friend is hard to findB. so many friends will bring you troubleC. it’s impossible to have three friendsD. making too many friendsis no good for you24. By writing this passage, the writer wants to tell us __ __.A. one of his friends will say goodbye to himB. you may make friends with your workmates.C. friendship is very precious（珍贵）D. the difference between friendship and relationship25. Which of the following is true to the passage?A. A friend must be able to get up at 3 in the morning.B. A friend must be always with you.C. You can demand a lot from a friend.D. Your friend is your good listener.Ⅲ. 根据提示填写单词或短语的正确形式完整句子（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）1.The P__________ is the biggest ocean in the world.2.Dad did some research and had no d________________ in finding us cheaptickets.3.Learn from your failures and go on to the next ________________(挑战).4.My uncle led us to a small path ____________(远离) the main trails toincrease our chances of seeing wildlife.5.The cause of the big fire still r______________(仍然) unknown.6.We are s______________(应当) to get to the railway station at six soas to catch the train.7.Our trip to Hainan was s_____________(糟蹋) by flight delay, badweather and poor service.8.She lost the necklace borrowed from her friend, which u___________ hervery much.9.Either she didn’t see me or she _____________(不理) me on purpose.10.It is nearly 40 years since they ______________(定居) in the smallvillage.11.Terry was so tired that he couldn’t walk _______________(笔直).12.People present at the meeting ______________________(要求) to wearformal suits.13.The old lady is __________________________(受。
2021-2022年高一英语上学期第一次(10月)月考试题
2021-2022年高一英语上学期第一次（10月）月考试题第一部分听力（共20小题，每小题1分，满分20分）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共10小题;每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑( A )Blink: a boy, aged 18Birth date: October 15th, 1991Speaking: English, RussianNow in: Dodge City, KansasFrom: Pratt, KansasLearning: Japanese, Chinese, SpanishAbout me: I love all outdoor activities, especially playing ball games, traveling, and climbing. I play the guitar, and can say that I’m really good at it. I also like playing chess, b ut I don’t play it well. If you’re good at it, maybe you can teach me. I’m going to college this September. All I really want to do during the summer holiday is travel, teach, and learn languages (this is my hobby), see things, and buildgreat friendships. I’d like people aged 17-20 to get in touch with me, both girls and boys. It’s better if you’re from Beijing or Tokyo. I’ve made 15 friends over the Internet. If you’d like to be one of them, send me an email at blink001@yahoo. My MSN is blink001@hotmail. I’d love to be your friend!21. Where is Blink now?A. In Dodge City.B. In Pratt.C. In Beijing.D. In Tokyo.22. What is Blink NOT good at?A. Playing the guitar.B. Playing ball games.C. Playing chess.D. Learning languages.23. What is Blink’s purpose of writing this passage?A. To make friends.B. To go on a trip.C. To learn foreign languages.D. To introduce his hobbies.( B )When you visit America, you will see the word “Motel ”on signs and notice boards. It is made up of “motor” and “hotel” and it is really a hotel for people who arrive by car (however, you don’t needa car to stay at one). You have to pay when you arrive for your room, which usually has a bath. Meals are not provided, but there will certainly be a cafeteria ( 自助餐馆 ). Americans eat a lot of salads and sandwiches. Along the main roads there are a lot of motels. Each tries to offer more than next. Some provide television in every bedroom; others have swimming pools; and so on. Motels are especially useful when you are in the country, far from a town or city. You will also find them in the big National Parks.In these great National Parks, you may meet guests you don’t expect to see. An American friend told me a little story. In the middle of a moonless night she heard strange noises outside her motel window in the Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. Thinking it might be a thief, she jumped out of bed, opened the door and crept towards a dark shadow. As she got close, she saw the thief. She was dreadfully frightened: it wasn’t a human thief — it was a big black bear. The bear was turning over some empty tins with its paw, looking for tasty bits of food. My friend decided to leave that particular thief alone!There are also, of course, places called “rooming houses”,where they receive lodgers ( 房客). You will see such signs as Tourists or Rooms Rent, and you could try one of these. A word of warning — looking for a room in New York during the tourist season is like looking for gold on the moon!24. Which of the following is TRUE about motels?A. The word “motel” is formed by two words.B. They are free for people who arrive by car.C. If you want to stay at a motel, you must have a car.D. You can only find motels in the big National Parks.25. Which of the following is NOT provided by motels?A. Meals.B. Swimming pools.C. TV.D. Baths.26. From the last paragraph, we can learn that in New York during the tourist season ______.A. tourists can find gold thereB. it is difficult to find a room thereC. tourists can have a sweet dream thereD. there is a warning for tourists to New York( C )Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive ( 存活 ) if the rain is spread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes ( 沙丘 ) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs ( 悬崖 ) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand , rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing —very, very slowly —as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert.During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert es to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again bees quiet and lonely.27.

I was then in 9th grade when my mathematics teacher asked me to take a class for a few students to whom the subject seemed difficult. And believe me, I enjoyed the entire teaching session. I never knew teaching would be so interesting. I loved my freshmen and was delighted to teach my so-called students who came up with lots of good questions.After my post-graduation, I worked as a software developer with a public sector in Bangalore for a few years. But I realized that no job could provide me with the satisfaction that I experienced while teaching and training. I always wanted to connect with a wider group of people. In fact, I felt it was a timely realization for me to choose the teaching profession. I applied to a few colleges, and finally I was chosen as a lecturer, and I had to lecture graduate and post-graduate students in a college.On the first day, I was nervous thinking that I had to teach the senior classes. But now I can say that giving lectures was one of the best experiences of my life. I was a Computer Science and Information Technology lecturer, but I tried to help my students with subjects that were not within my domain. It was a new feeling to me every morning before I went to the classes. I used to feel energized and excited thinking that the class would be lit up with bright faces to greet me, “Good morning, Madam.”To me each day was a new beginning, with new feelings, new experiences and new queries. I loved to explore their young minds and read theirinquisitive faces when a particular topic seemed tough. It was extremely challenging to motivate them to participate, think critically, question and also respec t others’ points of view. Though few things never seemed easy, it was extremely exciting to assure them that they really can. That is the reason I love to teach.（1）From the first paragraph we know that____.A . the author’s math teacher was often absentB . the author became a real teacher in 9th gradeC . the author joined the teaching profession because she had toD . a great many questions were put forward by the author’s “students”（2）When the author worked as a software developer, she might feel______.A . interestedB . dissatisfiedC . nervousD . proud（3）What can we learn about the author?A . She liked the students most who often challenged her to read.B . She was too nervous to speak a word in her first class.C . New feelings, experiences and queries m ade her days new.D . She was unwilling to solve her students’ questions beyond her domain.（4）What would be the best title for this text?A . Why I Love to TeachB . What My Life Is LikeC . How I Was Chosen as a LecturerD . My First Lesson as a Teacher3. 阅读理解All people need to sleep. Sleep is a restorative process that promotesproper body functioning and can improve the quality of your life. Not only is the quantity of sleep important, but also the quality of sleep.Your bedroom should be shaped to your taste and allow you to sleep in a peaceful environment. One of the biggest mistakes people make in their sleep is to use the bedroom for activities other than sleep. If your bedroom also functions as a command station for your life and work, the possibility of your sleep being poor is rather high. Bedrooms should be designed, decorated and used for sleep only. TVs, computers and other things should not be in your bedroom if possible.Establishing regular sleeping and waking times can help improve the quality of your sleep especially for those suffering from sleeplessness. Avoid hot food, caffeine, sugar and alcohol at least 4 to 6 hours before you go to bed. Develop a regular exercise program. Proper exercise and nutrition will help improve sleep patterns. However, avoid exercising 2 hours before bed, since this may stimulate your body and make it more difficult to fall asleep.Establish a pre-bedtime rule that will help you focus on sleep. You can try meditation, reading or deep breathing and relaxation. Your bedtime rule should be yours. Do not worry about it fitting into a specific category. Do what is best for you.Things such as room temperature, noise and light levels and even your bed mattress can have a lot of effect on the quality of sleep that you experience. Block out distracting noises and lights. You are in your bedroom to sleep and not be distracted by environmental interference.（1）It can be inferred from the text that______.A . the bedroom has many functions than generally thoughtB . amusements should be forbidden in the eveningC . the bedroom should be used only for sleepD . computers can make people fall asleep quickly （2）If you have sleep problems, ______.A . cold food and sugar are good for youB . a bedroom with a TV is necessary for youC . you need proper exercise just before bedD . you’d better establish regular sleeping and waking times（3）How is the text organized?A .B .C .D .（4）What can be the best title for the text?A . How to Deal with Sleep ProblemsB . How to Improve Sleep QualityC . What Is the Process of SleepD . Where Should We Sleep4. 阅读理解Listening to audio books is a really terrific way to enjoy all kinds of books during those times of the day when stopping to sit down and read a book is not an option. An audio book gives the listener hours and hours ofentertainment or instruction, or sometimes both at the same time. They are great for people of all ages and make a long road trip a more interesting experience, instead of being boring and dull.The biggest benefit of an audio book is that it can be listened to anyplace and anytime. It is a favorite companion for people while they are traveling, commuting, exercising, shopping, working in the garden, or even dusting and vacuuming the house. Using headphones with your favorite audio book player allows you to listen to and absorb the information no matter what might be going on around you.Even when you are in a situation that is quiet and are able to enjoy a good audio book, there are still advantages of using your headphones. You can often improve your retention and comprehension of the material when you use headphones because they help reduce distractions from other noises and help you focus better.There are a number of different audio books these days that people can choose from. There are audio books on CDs, on audio cassettes and also as MP3s and any standard CD player, cassette recorder, or MP3 player that you might use to listen to music can function as an audio book player as well.No matter which kind of audio book you prefer to listen to, there is an ever-increasing variety of works that you can select from these days. Virtually any subject matter that is contained in printed books will have at least some audio version available as well. However, books on audio cassettes are starting to become rarer.（1）What’s the biggest advantage of listening to audio books?A . It’s convenient.B . It makes traveling full of fun.C .
