AThe chance of a snowy holiday season in most American cities is practically impossible this year, so any festive atmosphere to be enjoyed will have to be the imaginary sort. Luckily, there are books for that.The Complete Fairy Tales by Hans Christian AndersenAny reader of fairy tales knows Andersen’s responsible for the snowy scenes in "The Snow Queen", the story of children Kai and Gerda, who must face the goddess-like woman who controls all snowflakes after Kai is kidnapped.Family Life by Akhil SharmaIt's a beautiful yet tragic novel about an Indian family immigrating to America, only to face entirely new hardships. Sharma's novel isn't entirely set in the wintertime, but his poetic descriptions of winter weather as lovely yet isolating make it a great choice for a December read.Frankenstein by Mary ShelleyGo ahead and give up movie adaptation that has been produced recently and read or re-read the classic itself. You know the story: a scientist driven by his ambition discovers a method for creating life, and spends two years cobbling together a living creature, who later feels anger about him.An American Childhood by Annie DillardDillard's first book is, as its title suggests, about her change from being a self-centered child to being an adult more concerned with the world around her than with her own personal concerns. Her parents are key figures in the story. One famous scen e takes place during what the author calls “a big snow” in 1950.21. Who wrote a novel about “The Snow Queen"?A. Annie Dillard.B. Donna Tartt.C. Akhil Sharma.D. Hans Christian Andersen.22. What do we know about Frankenstein?A. It has been adapted to a movie.B. It’s about the secret history.C. It’s about an Indian family.D. It’s a fairy tale.23. From An American Childhood, we know the main characters are _____.A. self-centered children.B. adults.C. scientists.D. Dillard's parents.BIn the mid1950s, I was a somewhat bored earlyadolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort. One day, this approach threw me into embarrassment.In Mrs Totten's eighthgrade maths class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数)．Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days, our grades were based on our oral answers to homework questions.Mrs Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets.She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work towards the other end.Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs Totten made her way from the beginning of the class, I desperately tried to determine which maths problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn't function.When Mrs Totten reached my desk, she asked what answer I'd got for problem No.14. “I…I didn't get anyth ing，”I answered, and my face felt warm.“Correct，” she said.It turned out that the correct answer was zero.What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isn't always what you say but how you say it that matters. Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.24. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?A. It is wise to value one's time.B. It is important to make an effort.C. It is right to stick to one's belief.D. It is enough to do the necessary.25. The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _____．A. asked questions in a regular wayB. walked up and down when asking questionsC. chose two or three questions for the studentsD. requested her students to finish their usual questions26. The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _____．A. the class didn't begin as usualB. several students didn't come to schoolC. he didn't try hard to make his estimateD. Mrs Totten didn't start from the back of the class27. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. An unforgettable teacherB. A future mathematicianC. An effective approachD. A valuable lessonCChildren grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families cannot buy new shoes each time a child needs them. As a result, about 300 million children aroundthe world go barefoot. Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites from the soil.Kenton Lee, an American man invented The Shoe That Grows. He explains, "It grows in three places: the front, on the side and on the back. It can last up to five years. The bottom is rubber like tire rubber. The top is just high-quality leather."Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a volunteer in an orphanage in Kenya. "I just remember a little girl who wore a pair of small shoes. The shoes were so small that she had to cut open the front of her shoes to let her toes stick out. And I just remember thinking, wouldn't it be nice if there were a pair of shoes that could grow with her feet."However, Lee says it was not easy to turn his idea into a reality. Finally, in 2009 Lee founded a non-profit organization called Because International. In the office of Because International, Lee keeps a pair of his own shoes to help him remember his promise.A pair of shoes, he says, gives more than protection. It gives a child self-worth and more chances to succeed. "Because it's a small thing that really does make a big difference to keep them healthy and happy and having more chances to succeed."Kenton Lee adds that his goal is to help get The Shoe That Grows to as many children as he can around the world.28. The first paragraph may intends to tell us _____.A. many children suffer lacking shoesB. shoes are badly needed in many placesC. the necessity of inventing the new shoesD. we should make efforts to help the children29. What does the underlined word “ parasites” in paragraph 1 mean?A. Small living things that live on or inside something.B. The remains that left in the soil after crops got in.C. Some worms that protect soil.D. Small insects that are not easy to find.30. What’s the main idea of paragraph 3?A. The children in orphanage live a hard life.B. What inspired Kenton Lee to invent the shoes.C. A girl with a pair of worn shoes.D. Kenton Lee wanted to help the children.31. From Kenton Lee, we can know _____.A. the new-invented shoes can grow automaticallyB. he had little difficulty in inventing the new type shoesC. he had a great dream to invent shoes from his childhoodD. shoes are important for children’s p hysical and mental growthDWe can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay (传闻) and rumor.Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn't show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed.That’s what happens in daily life. The simple f act that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.32. According to the passage, active learning may occur in _____.A. reading scientific journalsB. listening to the teacher in classC. doing a chemical experimentD. watching news programs on TV33.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. classroomB. newspapersC. active learningD. passive learning34. The game Rumor mentioned in Paragraph 2 indicates that _____ .A. playing games can make people more activeB. people tend to like telling lies when playing gamesC. a message may be changed when being passed onD. people may have problems with their sense of hearing35. What can be inferred from the text?A. Scholars and authors can’t be trusted.B. Passive learning may not be reliable.C. People like spreading rumors in daily life.D. Active learning is more important than passive learning.三、语法单项选择（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

2018-2019学年广东省深圳中学高一（上）期末英语试卷1.（填空题，6分）When I was a boy we used to live across the road from a big hill with huge oak trees growing out of it. When winter arrived, thick, heavy snow would fall, and my two brothers would grab their sleds heading over to the hill for a day of fun. I remember watching them with envy because I was still too small to go sledding, finally, one winter I was considered big enough and joined my brothers as they carried their sleds up the long hill and prepared to ride down it.The first few trips I rode with one of my brothers and had the time of my life. It was so exhilarating when the wind blew across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled. Near the end of the day I was overjoyed too when my oldest brother decided to let me try riding the sled all by myself. I climbed on it full of excitement and lay on my stomach. Then with one big push my brother sent me down the snowy hillside. I was doing pretty well too until I hit an old stump hidden by the snow and went off course（走偏），straight towards one of those big oak trees. My heart pounded in my chest and I could hear myself screaming. At the last possible second, I rolled off and the sled crashed into the tree. I could hear my brothers running down the hill yelling,"You have to steer（操控）！You have to steer！"Sadly, that wasn't the last time I failed to steer when some obstacle knocked me off course in my life. Many times, problems, troubles, and my own failures have sent me crashing into the trees of anger, frustration, and despair. I am still learning that life isn't always safe sledding. I am still learning that it is up to me to steer myself back to love, back to kindness, and back to goodness.Life is a trip, but no one ever said it was a smooth ride. Steer well then. Steer straight. Steer your soul towards the light and the love we are all meant for.（1）What do we know about the author when he was very young？___A． He lived on a big hill with huge oak trees on it.B． He was frightened to go sledding with his brothers.C． He longed to go sledding with his brothers.D． He carried his brothers' sleds as they went sledding.（2）Which of the following can replace the underlined word "exhilarating" in Paragraph 2？___A． delightfulB． terrifyingC． ordinaryD． violent（3）What does the author mean to tell us？___A． Losing control of a sled can be dangerous.B． Courage and determination can change one's life.C． Life can be controlled by one himself.D． Life is a mystery full of connections.2.（填空题，6分）Studies show that, up to about 6 months of age, babies can recognize all the sounds that make up all the languages in the world.There are about 6，000 sounds that are spoken in languages around the globe, but not every language uses every sound. For example, while the Swedish language has 16 vowel sounds, English uses 8 vowel sounds, and Japanese uses just 5．Adults can hear only the sounds used in the languages they speak fluently. To a native Japanese speaker, for instance, the letters R and L sound the same.Starting at around 6 months old, a baby's brain focuses on the most common sounds it hears. Then, children begin responding only to the sounds of the language they hear the most. In a similar way, older babies start recognizing the patterns that make up the rules of their native language. In English, for example, children who are about 18 months old star to figure out that words ending in "-ing" or "-ed" are usually verbs and that verbs are action words.Scientists are particularly interested in the brains of people who speak more than one language fluently because that is hard to do after about age 7． In one experiment, for example, native Chinese speakers spoke Chinese to 9-month-old American babies for 12 sessions over 4 weeks Each session lasted about 25 minutes. In the end, the American babies reacted to Chinese sounds just as well as Chinese babies didAt about the age of seven,these skills begin to develop slowly. It gets harder to memorize new sounds. So,if you don't start studying Spanish or Russian until middle school,you must filth against years of brain development,and progress may be not optimistic.Understanding a baby's brain may also help scientists design computers that learn languages as easily as babies do. Useful as computers are,they cannot understand a wide range of voices or communicate like people do.（1）Which of the following may confuse naive Japanese speaker most？___A． row and lowB． like and lakeC． brain and trainD． boiling and boiled（2）What can we infer from the text？___A． Language learning helps develop human brains.B． The best time to learn languages is right after birth.C． It is challenging to learn a new language after the age of 7．D． 6-month-old babies may understand simple grammatical rules.（3）What is the best title for the text？___A． The Development of Babies' BrainsB． Babies are Good Language LearnersC． Ways to Help Children Learn LanguagesD． New Findings about Babies' Languages3.（填空题，8分）Imagine a home where your shower runs a quick health check when you step in and your bed is equipped with sensors（传感器）that recognize any signs of ill health. Collected data gets shared across different home devices and provides warnings to ensure your health isn't ruined. In the near future,we'll be able to live in such a smart home where resources （资源）can be shared effectively and intelligently,while personalized services are provided for individuals based on their unique routines and needs.Cox Communications, the largest private telecommunications company in the US， has designed a super smart home for the old, which is called the Connected Independence. A strong Internet connection is central to the home, and the company also provides a network for other service providers. Not only is the equipment remotely controlled, but this home also includes direct connections to family members and health professionals. For example, a person can perform his physical treatment remotely with online guidance from a doctor.In a modern smart home,if something goes wrong,your family can be informed immediately. However,the person living in the smart home maintains his/her sense of independence. Moreover,assistive medical robots are even used to replace human caregivers in smart homes. They can meet the different physical and emotional needs of people they care for.The current healthcare model that relies on home visits by doctors is gradually being replaced by new services. For example,home technology has proven useful in the care of people with dementia（痴呆）Computerized devices like coach can automatically glide an older person with dementia through activities（e g taking medicine）by using audio reminders,which can reduce the need for assistance.Experts agree that many health conditions could be monitored and treated in a home equipped with smart home products. However,there'll probably always be a need for hospitalsand face-to-face health interventions（干预），Even so,commuted home health should be encouraged as it offers many opportunities for patient control.（1）What is the main purpose of the first paragraph？___A． To show what smart homes are like.B． To stress how clean smart homes are.C． To tell when smart homes are operated.D． To explain why smart homes are popular.（2）In the Connected Independence, what are all services provided mainly based on？___ A． Resource network.B． Internet connection.C． Medical technology.D． Operating instruction.（3）What becomes possible in smart homes thanks to computerized devices like COACH？___ A． Disease prevention.B． Disease management.C． The control of diseases.D． The recovery from diseases.（4）What can we infer about connected smart homes from the last paragraph？___A． They will become the key to ensuring good health soon.B． They could be used to replace all the healthcare services.C． They should be used cautiously to provide medical services.D． They shouldn't completely replace existing healthcare services.4.（填空题，30分）One day,many years ago,when I was working as a psychologist at a children's institution in England, an adolescent boy showed up in the waiting room.

ATake a break from city life and head out of town to enjoy the beautiful scenery and attractions in the surrounding areas.Hills and canalsThe Pentland Hills stand just south of Edinburgh with wonderful views back to the city. Within an hour, you can breathe fresh country air and go exploring. Or you can walk along the Union Canal in Linlithgow on your way to discover Linlithgow Palace, the birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots. Beaches, parks and castlesEdinburgh is surrounded by some of the most beautiful beaches and country parks in Scotland. Explore Gullane Bents, 20 miles to the east, where you can enjoy the most wonderful sunsets. Or you can go further to sandy Yellowcraigs beach, which is perfect for a leisurely (休闲的) walk while taking in the great view over the Firth of Forth to Fife.If you’ve had enough of sandcastles, why not check out the real thing? Visit Tantallon Castle, which sits near Dirleton Castle. In the medieval period, Dirleton Castle was a defensive (防御的) castle in the village of Dirleton, East Lothian, Scotland. During the Wars of Scottish Independence, it was ever twice taken by the English. Dirleton Castle is different from other castles, so it is well worth seeing.Engineering marvels (奇迹)If these mentioned above aren’t enough for you, why not witness the engineering marvel — Forth Rail Bridge? The best way to see it is on foot from the near road bridge, a bit windy at times but perfectly safe.After visiting it, you can spend a little time sitting down in one of the lovely tea rooms in the village of South Queensferry (or North Queensferry if you are walking in the opposite direction).1. A fan of Queen Mary will most probably visit _____________.A. Gullane BentsB. Tantallon CastleC. Dirleton CastleD. Linlithgow Palace2. We can infer that in the past, Dirleton Castle _____________.A. was built for Queens of ScotsB. was used for military purposesC. was protected well by the EnglishD. was considered a great engineering marvel3. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A. To persuade people to live out of Edinburgh.B. To list the advantages of life outside Edinburgh.C. To introduce some attractions out of Edinburg.D. To describe some historical attractions in Edinburgh.BA recent study says that 85 million families in the United States own a pet. The America Pet Products Association’s study for the years 2017-2018 says that represents 68 percent of all families in the US. The study found that 60.2 percent of homes own a dog while 47.1 percent of families have a cat. Another study showed that thirty years ago, 56 percent of American families owned a pet.Nicki Dobson is head of marketing and communication for Three Dog Bakery that sells dog food. She said, “Pets have become especially popular among Americans in the past 10 years. People now are having more pets and fewer children. People pay more attention to what they eat. We’re trying to make things with human-grade ingredients —they look like human food, but they’re meant for pets.” Another company, Posh Puppy Boutique, sells clothes, jewelry and other items for dogs. There are also many pet hotels and pet health centers in America. One study found that Americans spend about $126 each month on their pets.Some younger Americans seem to be choosing pets over having children. Some people would take their pets into consideration when they make big decisions. The SunTrust banking company did a study in 2017 of people under the age of 40 buying their first house. The study found that 33 percent said a good space for their pets influenced them to buy a new house. Only 25 percent said marriage was a reason, and 19 percent said they bought a house because of their children. The rest of people are influenced by other different reasons.To a degree, keeping a pet can be beneficial to most families. Health experts say pets can improve the health of their owners. Besides, it’s reported that pets can reduce blood pressure, cholesterol (胆固醇) levels and feelings of loneliness.4. What do the findings of the recent study mainly show?A. Americans spend more on their pets.B. More and more Americans own a pet.C. Cats are the most popular pets in America.D. Dogs have become more popular than before.5. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Americans.B. Pets and children.C. American children.D. Pets kept by Americans.6. What do more young 4mericans consider if they want to buy a new house?A. Whether their children love the house.B. Whether the house is suitable for their pets.C. Whether they can find pet health centers nearby.D. Whether the house can be good for their marriage.7. What’s probably the author’s attitude towards keep ing a pet?A. Objective.B. Worried.C. Supportive.D. Negative.CA recent study showed that Dutch teens are the happiest in the world, building upon previous studies that found Dutch kids also ranked highly in terms of personal happiness. The study surveyed 48 countries that represented nearly 7,000 teenagers. The survey asked a lot of questionsabout their body images, life satisfaction, and school environments.Out of the 48 countries, the U.S. was fairly low on the list for teen happiness. American teens have experienced an increase in depression (抑郁) rates. So, what exactly makes Dutch teens happier and less anxious about life? “I think most Dutch teens can receive positive effects from their families and schools,” said Dr. Simone de Roos, a researcher at the Netherlands Institute for Social Research. “They have a supportive environment at home. Besides, there’s a very good atmosphere at school: teachers are willing to accept the feelings of pupils, and pupils trust their teachers.”The study also shows that Dutch teens’ daily habits have a huge impact on their health. According to the report, Dutch teens are five times more likely to eat breakfast during the week and have kinder classmates. Dutch teens are less likely to suffer from obesity.“If you loo k across Europe, the Dutch are the most merciful and they prefer to make their children develop self-independence rather than force them to do something they dislike,” said Professor Ruut V eenhoven, founding director of World Database of Happiness. “Childr en usually have their own ideas of what they really like and what kinds of social skills they need to learn.”Compared with children in other countries, the childhood of Dutch teens are more relaxing and admirable. For example, they have less homework in elementary school. They are also more likely to be educated than their parents, and they grow up in one of the most peaceful countries in the world. These can greatly add to their sense of happiness. Maybe it’s time that the U.S. took a page out of the Dut ch’s playbook.8. What can we know about American teens from the passage?A. Their number is increasing rapidly.B. They feel less happy than Dutch teens.C. Their life is not as easy as Dutch teens’.D. They are satisfied with their school life.9. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that Dutch children _____________.A. depend more on their parentsB. have more freedom of choiceC. have a good command of social skillsD. never go against their parents’ suggestions10. What can we infer about Dutch teens in their childhood?A. They have better-educated parents.B. They spend little time on their study.C. They grow up in a positive atmosphere.D. They have a closer relationship with their parents.11. What are American parents probably advised to do?A. To learn from the Dutch.B. To develop teens’ ability better.C. To read more books about the Dutch.D. To make their teens feel more relaxed.DMajor world car makers have already spent a lot of money in making electric vehicles (电动车) more popular, and they have decided to keep doing so. Some have even suggested stopping producing vehicles that run only on gas in the future.But one of the main problems with the technology is that drivers need to charge the batteries often to be able to travel longer distances. On the one hand, the batteries can greatly increase the price of the cars; but on the other hand, they can be very costly to replace.Now, a new technology is being developed and tested in Sweden to help solve these problems. Engineers there have cre ated what is thought to be the world’s first electrified road. A Swedish company, Elways, invented the technology.The project is called eRoadArlanda. CEO Hans Saell has led the project since 2013. He explains that the technology works in a simple way: a 15-centimeter-wide electrical rail is built into the road. The vehicle contains equipment that senses the electrified road. An arm then lowers from the vehicle to make contact (接触) with the rail. Saell says the system is designed to make continuous charging on the road effortless for the driver.Saell says being able to charge vehicles on the road can also remove fears that drivers may have about going too far and running out of power. He says the system can be built into existing roads to reduce costs. Alth ough putting in a highly developed version of eRoadArlanda’s technology would cost about 1 million dollars per kilometer, Saell says the cost is still a lot less when compared with other projects related to vehicles. He said, “If you build a city tram in a city area, the cost for that is more than 50 times higher than one kilometer of electric roads.” Saell says the eRoadArlanda system still needs a lot of development before it will be ready for wide industrial use. But he predicts this could happen in just 5 to 10 years.12. What might be major world car makers’ opinion on electric vehicles?A. They think highly of electric vehicles.B.
