2014.11(110分钟;120分)一.阅读理解(40分)AOnce there was a poor farmer and his farm belonged to(属于) a rich man. One day he brought a basket of apples to the rich man’s house. On the doorsteps, he met two monkeys dressed like children. They jumped onto the basket to eat the apples and threw some on the ground. The farmer politely took off his hat and asked the monkeys to get off. They obeyed(服从) and the farmer went into the house. He asked to see the rich man. A servant took him to the room where the rich man was sitting."I have brought you the basket of apples you asked for," he said."But why have you brought a half-empty basket?" the rich man asked."I met your children outside, and they stole(偷) some of the apples."21. Why did the farmer bring apples to the rich man?A. he was poorB. he liked the rich manC. his farm belonged to the rich manD. the rich man’s children liked apples22.

I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time .The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $770.Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance company the date I was leaving Ame rica. Knowing that, they played for time…and I left without getting a cent.24.

Wee k by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on.I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like ? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everythin g she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things shesaid.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That’s just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.28. What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint?A. He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said.B. He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.C. He told her to write down all that her “enemy” had said about her and pay attention onlyto the things that were true.D. He refused to take the list and have a look at it.29. What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?A. Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.B. She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.C. I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.D. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.30. Why did her father listen to her quietly?A. Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true.B. Because he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wanted to show thisby keeping silent for a while.C. Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.D. Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth.31. Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?A. Not an Enemy, but the Best FriendB. The Best Advice I’ve Ever HadC. My FatherD. My ChildhoodDEveryone would like to be a millionaire , a person with a lot of money, but can you imagine having over $30 million and only being 20 years old? Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is only 20 years old. She is a world famous film star with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA. At her young age, she can look after her family financially (经济上) all her life. This year is a big year for Britney. She is now on a 31-day tour of the US and every concert is a sell-out. That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 people every time. It’s a tiring schedule but brings her a lot. When touring, she goes to bed around 1 a.m. and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m. the next day. Her philosophy (人生观) is to take care of the body and relax but always make sure you work hard and have fun.Spears is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting. She made an appearance in “Austin Power 3” this year and she is filming a teenage light play that will come out in March 2003. In this movie, she has a starring role.For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (热心的) about it all. If her movies are successful, her money in the bank is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she does it for the love, not the money, as she herself tells the reporters .32. We can infer (推断) from the text that most millionaires are __________.A. older than 20B. around 20C. in their 30sD. in their 40s33. The underlined word “you” in the first paragraph refers to __________.A. a person in generalB. a special personC. Britney SpearsD. a person interested in money34. Which of the following is not true according to the text?A. Though young, Britney can support her family now.B. While touring, Britney sleeps about 12 hours a day.C. The teenage comedy movi e was based on Britney’s own story.D. Britney will be even richer with her movies successful.35. According to Britney Spears, she works __________.A. to be a great actressB. for the enjoymentC. for moneyD. to be more famousE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。
新疆若羌中学2014-2015学年高三上学期期中考试英语试题 Word版无答案

2014-2015学年第一学期高三年级期中考试英语试卷试卷Ⅰ第一部分:听力(共两节,满分30分)略。
第二部分:阅读理解(共2节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AWhen I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach (田径教练). One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior. John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in athletics, so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player, winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, “John, I really appreciate that you came out for the track team, but why didn’t you play tennis instead? It seems that would interest you a lot more, since you’re so good at it.”John answered, “Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that reason.”From then on, I often remember my student’s reply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical (不满的) students can be of themselves, I’ve found that a simple “I trust that you can do it!” can go a long way!21. According to Paragraph 1, the author seems to think more about John’s ______.A. PE marksB. self-confidenceC. interest in sportsD. state of health22. Why did John take part in the track team?A. He had been an excellent runner.B. He was encouraged by his teacher.C. He liked running more than tennis.D. He had no tennis coach to train him.23. The purpose of this passage is probably ______.A. to build a close teacher-student relationshipB. to introduce a new way of sports trainingC. to explain the value of sports and gamesD. to show the importance of encouragement24. The passage is mainly written for ______.A. teachersB. parentsC. studentsD. playersBWhat’s black and white and read all over? Not newspapers, at least not anymore. In fact, if you’re like most young people, you probably don’t read the newspaper at all.In one recent survey, just 19 percent of 18 to 34-year-old said they read a newspaper every day, while 37 percent watch local TV news and 44 percent visit Internet news sites daily. As people turn more and more to new technologies, they turn the pages of newspapers less and less.“There’s a revolution in the way young people get news,” says media consultant Merrill Brown.Just a generation or two ago, the newspaper was the main way that many people got their news. Now, nearly every home has at least one TV set. There’s high-speed, wireless Internet both at home and in many public places.You no longer have to wait for a bundle of newsprint to arrive on your doorstep every morning. Thanks to new technology, if you want to know what’s going on in the world, you can get breaking news immediately in more ways than one.So newspapers face a very big challenge. Raised on MTV and video games, today’s kids and young adults want flashy displays, special effects, quick information, and the chance to interact in real time, even when they’re reading about serious problems.If newspapers can’t find creative ways to be more than just ink on paper, some experts suggest, they might disappear completely.Traditional newspaper articles are supposed to be read from beginning to end, lack of interaction. With Web pages, on the other hand, there’s more freedom. You can look through the things you’re interested in, then follow links to other sources. You can join discussion groups, read other people’s opinions on a topic, or starta blog to express your own views.25. This passage is mainly about ______.A. the disappearing newspaperB. different news sourcesC. the future of the InternetD. the new technologies26. From the survey, we can see that ______.A. TV has become the major source of newsB. newspapers are no longer the major source of newsC. more than half of the 18-to-34-year-old visit news sites dailyD. new technologies have replaced the traditional one27. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned about the disadvantage of newspapers?A. High price.B. Lack of changes.C. Slow speed.D. Lack of interaction.28. The author of the passage would probably think the future of newspapers is ______.A. attractiveB. brightC. hopelessD. uncertainCIn fine department stores everywhere, you’ll see the light-blue boxes of Estee Lauder. These popular cosmetics (化妆品) are sold in more than 130 countries. Who’s the woman behind this worldwide cosmetics empire ? Estee Lauder herself, of course.This businesswoman became, for a time, the world’s richest self-made woman. Her secret? “I didn’t get there by dreaming about it,” she would say. “I got there by doing it.” Estee was born in the early 1900s in Queens, New York. Her father ran a hardware store, and from him Estee learned how to be a successful salesperson. Estee learned from her uncle John Schotz, too. He made creams in a small laboratory behind the family’s house. Estee watched him. Soon, she was experimenting with her own cosmetics. She put lipstick (唇膏) and creams on any female relative who’d let her, until her annoyed father told her to stop.She married Joseph H. Lauder in 1930, and continued her experiments. She would cook dinner for the family, and at the same time, make her face creams. Then she began to sell her products in a Manhattan beauty shop.In 1960, Estee began to sell her products in Europe. After many tries she succeeded and began selling her products in some stores in London. But France proved even more difficult. The store Galleries Lafayette refused to sell her products. So Estee “by accident” dropped a bottle of youth dew (香水) on the floor in the cosmetics department. As the scent spread around the store, customers came over and asked to buy it. The store soon began selling Estee’s products.Estee led her company until 1982, when her son Leonard took over the business. Until her health worsened in the mid-1990s, she continued to attend the opening of a new store wherever in the world. She died on April 24, 2004. Estee Lauder’s talent as a saleswoman was extraordinary. Her son Leonard said, “There was never anyone who could sell like she could.” All who worked for Estee appreciated her special talent.29. Which of the following can best describe Estee Lauder?A. A successful cosmetics saleswoman.B. A beautiful shop owner in London.C. A popular cosmetics producer in France.D. A founder of a cosmetics company in America.30. What was Estee Lauder’s father’s attitude towards her when she tried her products on her female relatives?A. He supported her and helped her.B. He didn’t care about what she did.C. He was very angry at her for what she did.D. He was proud of what she did.31. Estee managed to get her products known to the French customers by droppinga bottle of youth dew on the floor in the cosmetics department of a store ______.A. on purposeB. with the store’s permissionC. by accidentD. carelessly32. The underlined word “scent” in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.A. Estee’s productB. a customer’s praiseC. a pleasant smellD. the broken pieces of glassDWhen the seventeenth-century settlers brought the English language to America, they immediately and necessarily began to adapt (使适应) it to their new environment. These changes were clear early and criticized by some people on both sides of the Atlantic. However, after the Revolution, Americans began to be proud of their own form of English. Noah Webster was the major early supporter of American meanings and spellings over British ones and published the earliest American dictionary, An American Dictionary of the English Language. During the years since Webster, language differences have continued to develop, proving the truth of George Bernard Shaw’s often-repeated words that the two nations are divided by a common language.Like the American language, the earliest American literature copied English models. However, after the Revolution and the War of 1812, writers began to create a clear American literature. However, in 1820, Sydney Smith asked the famous question “Who reads an American book?”Answering to this and similar taunts (讽刺) with creative anger, American writers soon produced works that plenty of British people read. Works by Washing-ton Irving, Walt Whitman, and Mark Twain had been acclaimed greatly in Britain by the end of the nineteenth century.Even as American writers got respect in Britain, British writers continued to have great influence in America. Charles Dickens went to America twice, in 1842 and 1867-68. Other major British writers who traveled and lived in the United States include D.H. Lawrence and Aldous Huxley. British best works continue to be widely read. The works of William Shakespeare and Jane Austen became popular films.At the turn of the twenty-first century, many books and writers continue to cross the Atlantic in both directions — made possible by the proud heritage (继承) of the shared language.33. The author of this passage seems to think ______.A. British English is better than American EnglishB. American English is better than British EnglishC. the same language has divided the two nationsD. the same language has connected the two nations34. From the question asked by Sydney Smith, we can infer ______.A. the British had to translate American books into English onesB. the British found American books difficult to understandC. the British thought highly of books written by AmericansD. the British looked down upon American books at first35.The underlined word “acclaimed” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______”.A. soldB. discussedC. welcomedD. refused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。

In fact, we don’t have to wait for36 to thank the ones closest to us—the ones so easily 37 .If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this:Give it now!38 your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it. Saying thanks is such an easy way to 39 the world’s happiness.Saying thanks not only 40 someone else’s world, but brightens yours. If you’re feeling 41 , unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others. It may be just the 42 you need. Of course, there are times when you can’t express gratitude 43 .In that case don’t let embarrassment sink you into silence—speak up the first time you have the chance.Once a young minister, Mark Brian, was sent to a 44 town of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia. The Indians, he had been told, did not have a 45 for thank you. But Brian soon found that these people had 46 generosity. Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to 47 every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior 48 .They do their thanks.I wonder if we had words in our 49 for thank you. Would we do a better job of 50our gratitude?Would we be more responsive, more sensitive, more caring?Thankfulness sets in motion a chain reaction that 51 people all around us—including ourselves. For no one ever 52 the tune of a grateful heart.

You can makeyour child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently lettinghim know that you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving, consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve(解决) things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy(隐私).Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations. Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation(节制).Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager has his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.56.The main purpose of the text is to tell parents ________.A.how to get along with a teenager B.how to respect a teenagerC.how to understand a teenager D.how to help a teenager grow up57.What does the phrase “clam up” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A.become excited B.show respect C.refuse to talk D.seek help58.The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenager ________.A.to use the phone in a sensible way B.to pay for his own telephoneC.to share the phone with friends D.to answer the phone quickly59.What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?A.Not allow him to learn driving or take drugs.B.Give him advice only when necessary.C.Let him have his own telephone.D.Not talk about personal things with him.BSince the first Earth Day in 1970, American have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment . “We didn’t know at that time there even was an environment, let alone that there was a problem with it,” says Bruce Anderson, president of Earth Day USA.But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement .Business people, political leaders, university professors, and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement. “The understanding has increased man y ,many times,” says Gaylord Nelson, the former governor from Wisconsin, who thought up the first. According to US government reports , emissions (排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 tons .The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9 .Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with , the world is a safer and healthier place .A kind of “Green thinking ” has become part of practices .Great improvement has been achieved .In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs ,; today in 1995 there are about 6,600 .Advanced lights ,motors , and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution .Twenty –five years ago , there were hardly any education programs for environment .Today , it’s hard to find a public school , university , or law school that does not have such a kind of program .” Until we do that , nothing else will change! ” say Bruce Anderson .60.According to Anderson , before 1970, Americans had little idea about ___A. the social movementB. recycling techniquesC. environmental problemsD. the importance of Earth Day61.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?A. The grass –roots levelB. The business circleC. Government officialsD. University professors62. What have \Americans achieved in environmental protection ?A.

They have reduced pollution through effective measures .63. What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph ?A. EducationB. PlanningC. Green livingD. CO reductionCDo you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive (欺骗)? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important in formation that should be included, he can give you a false picture.For example, some might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery (彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for on e hundred dollars!”This guy’s a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $200 worth of tickets, and only on e was a winner. He’s really a big loser!He didn’t say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Some politicians often use thi s trick. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents(对手) says, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” that’s tr ue. However, and honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.”Advertisers(广告商) will sometimes use half-truths. It’s against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache.” It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.This kind of deception happens too of often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.64. How much did the lottery winner lose?A. One hundred dollars.B. Two hundred dollars.C. Three hundred dollars.D. Four hundred dollars.65. We may infer that the author believes people should _______.A. buy lottery ticketsB. make use of half-truthsC. not take anything at face valueD. not trust the Yucky Company66. What do the underline words “net gain” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. final increaseB. big advantageC. large shareD. total saving67. What can we know from the example of the Yucky Pill advertisement?A. False statements are easy to see through.B. Half-truths are often used to mislead people.C.Doctors like to act in advertisements.D.Advertisements are based on facts.DAttractions in WisconsinWisconsin Historical Museum30 N.

At Christopher Columbus Museum.EA couple of years ago, before a trip to China, Nicole Davis and her US women’s volleyballteammates were warned about the prominence (显著、突出) of coach “Jenny” Lang Ping inher native country.“I was pushed over by Chinese journalists while I was just trying to put my luggage on the bus,” said Davis.Known as the “Iron Hammer” for her punishing spikes(扣球),Lang made it possible for China to dominate in the sport in the early 1980s.She was a key player on China’s 1984 Olympic gold medal winning team.When the US team arrived for the Olympics,Lang,48,who is from Beijing, had to take a different route to avoid a crowd of reporters and fans.Then came the greatest moment to Lang:While the US team was playing in a packed gym, at least8,000 Chinese fans unfurled an American flag.“That really says it all,” Davis said. “They look at her as an icon(偶像).I’m sure it’s hard for them to see her coachi ng another country, but they love her so dearly that her success is their success.”The loyalty of the Chinese fans was tested on Friday, when China lost a match to the US.“It’s a pity that China lost the match, but I’m still glad that Lang Ping’s team w on, since she is the pride of China’s volleyball,” said Liu Chengli, a spectator. “We alsocheered forLang’s victory.”Lang said she just tried to stay professional when the two teams meet. “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team. It’s the same.” Lang said.Davis said she and her teammates could not have imagined the passion for volleyball among Chinese because the sport was lack of popularity in the US. The reception from Chinese fans has touched the US players, said US volleyball player Lindsey Berg.“It’s such an honor to be here and play for our coach here in China,” she said. “The amount of support that the Chinese give to her and us has been tremendous. The whole event has been unbelievable.”71.What’s the passage mainly about?A.Staying professional. B.Cheering for the Iron Hammer.C.A match between China and the US. D.Lang Ping’s career as a coach.72.Lang Ping avoided meeting the reporters and fans probably because she ________.A.was afraid to be questioned about her strategyB.didn’t want to be paid much attention toC.disliked to be with her fansD.didn’t want to disturb public order73.What does the underlined word “unfurled” exactly mean?A.destroyed completely B.tore into piecesC.spread out to the wind D.rolled up74.What does Lang Ping mean by saying “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team.”?A.American Volleyball Team will beat any team.B.Chinese Volleyball Team is the same as other teams.C.She just tried to stay professional.D.The results of each match will be the same.75.What impressed the US team players most?A.The tolerance of Chinese people.B.The loyalty for volleyball of the Chinese.C.Lang Ping’s coaching skills.D.The popularity of volleyball in China.第二卷第四部分书面表达第一节短文填词(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分)阅读下面文章,请根据以下提示:1)汉语提示2)首字母提示3)语境提示,在每个空格填入一个适当的英语单词,所填单词要求意义明确、拼写正确,并将该词完整地写在下面相对应的横线上。
