17—18学年上学期高一期中考试英语试题(附答案)(19)
2017-2018学年第一学期期中试卷高一年级英语第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分30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。
ASharon, Aged 22The most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. Besides, I don't know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It's best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to. Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didn't really know anyone. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it.David, Aged 19I'm not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening (令人恐惧的). But you'll get used to it. Don't be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you're afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it's really not bad at all. Don't worry.21. What can we infer from Sharon about high school?A. Teachers are quite strict.B. Students often stay up at night.C. Teachers provide little care for students.D. Students should make good use of their time.22. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A. Excited.B. Bored.C. Worried.D. Relaxed.23. Who mentions the importance of friends?A. Frank.B. David.C. Sharon.D. Eddie.BThe English language has a lot of words which can be used in many different ways and in many different expressions.One such example is the word matter. In fact, matter can mean just about anything. It could be one of the most useful words in the English language.Let's get to the heart of the matter — a matter of principle (原则).If someone says that you owe (欠) him $50, but you don't, a friend might say, “Well, you could pay him t he $50. It's not that much money. Then you won't have to hear him say it anymore.” But if you do not owe him the money, do not pay him the money. It's a matter of principle.There is another way to use the word matter. But be careful with your choice of words.If you ask someone, “What's the matter?”, it shows you are worried about the other person. But saying, “What's the matter with you?” has a completely different meaning. And it usually sounds rude (粗鲁的). In fact, when you say, “What's the matter with you?”, you are suggesting that the person did something wrong or stupid.Another expression that could sound rude is to say, “It doesn't matter to me.” Here, it depends on the context, and how you say it.Let's say you tell someone that a friend just got a big raise at work. That person answers with, “It doesn't matter to me.” Here, it means he or she does not care. And it sounds rude.But saying, “Oh, you pick where we eat dinner. It doesn't matter to me.” does not sound rude. In this situation, “it doesn't matter” shows you are easy-going (随和的).No matter how you look at it and what you say, matter is a very useful word. And it's only a matter of time before you will become an expert on the use of matter.24. We can infer from the text that the word matter _____.A. has a wide useB. can mean moneyC. is the most used English wordD. has the most different expressions25. What is the author's suggestion in Paragraph 4?A. Every penny counts.B. Stick to what is right.C. Follow your friend's advice.D. Be careful when making friends.26. The underlined word “context” in the text probably means _____.A. choiceB. personC. situationD. answer27. The author develops the text mainly by _____.A. using examplesB. giving instructionsC. describing his experiencesD. discussing research findingsCStudents from Oceanside High School in Rockland will be able to sleep in a little longer from this autumn.Regional School Unit 13 Superintendent (负责人) Lew Collins said during the school's Thursday night meeting that the schedule (时间表) for the schools will be changed. Oceanside East and West will start a half hour later, at 8 a.m. for their new school year.Research has shown that teenagers' brains are often not fully awake at 6:30 a.m. Collins said the schedule, which is used to get students to school for classes that begin at 7:30 a.m., calls for someto get on buses before 6 a.m. to get to school on time. Teachers are having meetings at 6:40 a.m., which is too early, he thinks.Collins visited the high schools in Rockland and asked students when they would like classes to begin. Most of them said 8:00 a.m. “I was surprised. I thought they would have said 9:00 or 10:00,” he said.The National Sleep Foundation says on its website that teenagers' biological clocks (生物钟) are designed to stay up later and get up later. The Foundation called for schools to change their schedules, which means a later start as well for elementary students (小学生).We do not have enough buses to run, since all the high school and elementary school buses run almost at the same time, Collins said. He suggested, “We should buy six more buses and get six more drivers to keep the new schedule working.”Elementary school classes in Rockland now start at 8:30 a.m., but will be moved to 8:45 a.m., starting in the autumn. “I know this is a problem for working parents, but we will see what we can come up with,” said Jane Brown, a teacher at Bardonia Elementary School. “Anyway, I believe if students get more sleep they'll be more ready to learn when classes start,” she added.28. A new schedule will be made to _____.A. add more interesting subjectsB. help students do better in classC. ask parents to learn about schoolsD. cut the number of meetings down29. One of the problems facing the schools in Rockland is that they will _____.A. be afraid of working parents' disturbanceB. be worried about children's safetyC. be short of school busesD. be short of teachers30. What does Jane Brown think of the new schedule?A. She is not certain about it.B. She is not interested in it.C. She is worried about it.D. She is hopeful about it.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。

会宁四中2017-2018学年度第一学期高一级中期考试英语试卷本试卷分第一卷（选择题）和第二卷（非选择题）两部分。
考试分数共120分。
考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷(共70分)第一部分: 阅读理解(共三节70分)第一节短文阅读（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和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AOne day a lawyer’s wife fell ill, and he went to get a doctor. The doctor will ingly came to see the woman and to do what he could for her, but before he went into the house, he made a short stop. He knew that the lawyer was famous for not paying his bills, even if they were due(正当的).He therefore said to the man.“But if I save your wife, I am afraid you may not pay me.”“Sir,”replied the lawyer. “Here I have＄500,,whether you cure my wife or you kill her. I'll give you all this.”The doctor was reassured and went into the house. When he reached the woman's bedside, it soon became clear to him that he could do little. She was seriously ill, and though he prescribed(开药方) her medicine, she soon died.He told the lawyer he was very sorry, and then asked for the money which he had promised. “Did you kill my wife?”asked the lawyer. “Of course I didn't,” said the doctor. “Well! Did you cure my wife?” asked the man. “I'm afraid that was impossible,” replied the doctor.“Well, then since you neither killed my wife nor cured her, I have nothing to pay you.”1. Before entering the lawyer’s house the doctor stopped for a while, because_____ .A. the doctor wanted to ask something about his wife's illnessB. the doctor thought it impossible to save the womanC. the doctor was afraid that the lawyer would refuse to pay himD.the lawyer was too poor to pay his bills2. Because the lawyer’s wife was seriously ill, the doctor_____ .A. couldn’t do much and didn't save her lifeB. tried his best and saved her at lastC. had to do everything he could for herD. had to spend a lot of time to cure her3.The wor d “reassured” in the passage means __________.A.he was told again and againB.he was paid some money firstC.he was quite sure that he would be paidD.he was quite sure that he could cure the woman4.Which of the following is the best title (标题)for the passage?A.The Lawyer and His WifeB.The Lawyer's TrickC.A Good Doctor and a Poor LawyerD.A Serious IllnessBI have never traveled by plane but I would like to and I hope to have the choice very soon. Anyway, one can find advantages and disadvantages when traveling by plane.The most important advantage is that it is the fastest way of transport when talking about long distance travel. One can arrive in Spain in almost two hours and a half by plane. He can’t even make sure how time has passed and he has arrived. He does not have to wait three days in order to arrive in Spain by coach (长途公共汽车), which makes him feel pain in his legs and feel tired because he hasn’t slept more than three hours in the last three days.Then, think about the conditions which are at our beck and call: we are served by a beautiful lady who will take care of us on the plane. It helps us forget about the possibility of some dangers.Anyway, many people feel fearful when it comes to flying in a plane. They say that the risks （风险）of losing your life in plane travel are higher than in car travel.Apart from this disadvantage, there are people who don’t choose to travel by plane because they feel sick and they think air fares are too high.One piece of advice I would like to give to people who choose to travel by plane is that they should not even think for a second about the plane crashing（坠落）. Just relax, be comfortable and everything will be all right.5．From the text, we can learn that ________.A. the author usually travels by planeB. most people feel sick the first time they take a planeC. it’s a good choice to have long distance travel by planeD. there are often some accidents when people travel by plane6．What does the underlined phrase in the third paragraph mean?A. Ready to serve us at any time.B. Far away from us.C. Out of our control.D. Necessary in our life.7．Which of the following is NOT the reason why people don’t like to travel by plane?A. The risk of losing life is higher by plane.B. Some people feel sick.C. It costs more to take a plane.D. They can’t have a good sleep on a plane.8．What’s the text mainly about?A. How to avoid the disadvantages of traveling by plane.B. The advantages and disadvantages of traveling by plane.C. The special experience of traveling by plane.D. Good advice on how to travel comfortably by plane.CNick Petrels is a doctor in Montreal. He works 60 hours a week. He takes care of 159 patients a week in the hospital and at his office. He’s been a doctor for ten years.Dr. Petrels gives his patients good medical advice. But he doesn’t just tell his patients what to do. He also sings to them on television! Dr. Petrels has his own TV show. The show is in Italian, English and French. The doctor starts the show with a song and then gives medical advice. He explains a medical problem or disease in simple language. After that, he sings another song.Dr. Petrels produces and performs in his own show every week. The program is very popular with his patients and with people who enjoy his singing. His dream is to perform in Las Vegas. His favorite songs are love songs, and he has a compact disk of love songs that he wrote. Dr. Petrels says, “I always loved to sing. All my problems are gone when I sing.” But when Dr. Petrels was young, his father didn’t want him to be a singer, so he went to medical school.Some people tell Dr. Petrels he can help people more as a doctor. But Dr. Petrels says he helps people when he sings, too. “I like to make people smile. Sometimes it’s difficult to make asick person smile. Medicine and pleasure both try to do the same thing. They try to make people feel good.”9. Dr. Petrels works 60 hours a week, because he _______.A．gives his patients medical adviceB．takes care of 159 patients a weekC．sings on televisionD．has his own TV show10. Dr. Petrels _______, so he is called a singing doctor.A．also sings to his patients on TVB．always loves to singC．is popular with his patientsD．has been a doctor for ten years11. Dr. Petrels says he likes to _______.A．help people singB．make people feel betterC．do the same thingD．make difficult people smileDHomesick is a compound word made up of HOME and SICK. You know what each word means on its own, of course. But think about what the words mean when they are used together. Homesick means SICK FOR HOME.Now think for a minute about SEASICK. If you change the word home in the definition(释义)to the word sea, would the definition fit SEASICK? Seasick means SICK BY THE MOVEMENT ON THE SEA. When you are homesick ,the only place you want to be is at home. When you are seasick, the last place you want to be is at sea.Have you ever heard of a person being heartsick? Heartsick doesn’t mean that something is wrong with a person’s heart. pe ople are heartsick when they are hurt deep inside and when they feel as if their hearts are broken.But, on the other hand, we have such compound words as handshake, handstand, and handbag. Perhaps you may write definitions for them.12.The word SEASICK means“______”.A. to be eager to go to the seaB. what has nothing to do with the seaC. to be sick because of the seaD. that the sea is terrible13.When we say a person is heartsick, we mean that________.A. his heart is sick B .his heart needs testingC .he’s sorry at heart D. he’s terribly disappointed and sad14.“The last place you want to be” is_______.A. where you want to be mostB. where you want to be leastC. where you go the lastD. the last place you go to15．The definitions of handshake, handstand and handbag are_______.A. easy to knowB. difficult to knowC .impossible to learn D. unnecessary to learn第二节补全对话（共10分）根据对话情景和内容，从对话后的选项中选出能入空白处的最佳选项。
