第Ⅰ卷第一部分: 阅读理解 (共两节，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和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AMaking friends is a skill like most skills. It improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some action. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying home alone.Joining a club or a group, talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activity.Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people comes from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us, finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself as you are, and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable.Try to act self-confident even if you don’t feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile.If you see someo ne you’d like to speak to, say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person—friendship is based on mutual liking and “give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop.1. The best topic of the passage may be ________.A. FriendshipB. Making friendsC. Meeting New PeopleD. Facing the Unknown2. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. Making friends needs practicing.B. Making friends needs to be more active in getting in touch with people.C. When meeting someone, make him feel nice and easy.D. Before making friends with someone, judge him if he’s too this or too that.3. The development of friendship needs ________.A. a lot of moneyB. lots of conversationC. time and effortD. carefully judgingBWell, when the huge wave hit the boat, my safety belt broke and I was swept overboard.I don’t really understand how it happened, but I heard someone yell out, but t hen my boat, Wild One, went off into the darkness and I was alone in a very rough sea.I then spent five and a half hours in the water. The place where it happened was, oh, about 50 kilometers from shore. It was likely that I wouldn’t see another day, but I always thought I’d overcome the difficulties. At first I was watching out for Wild One. The rest of the crew knew I was gone, so they were sure to come back and look for me. After a while, I saw the boat’s lights when it came looking for me. They were within about 300 meters of me, but the spotlight just missed me. The reason why they didn’t see me was because of the huge waves. You know, I started sailing when I was seven, and started ocean racing when I was about eighteen, but I’d never been overboard before. I believed I was going to survive, but it was very cold, and as the hours passed I started to get desperate—and frozen! It was around 5 am when I saw the lights of a tanker coming towards me. I figured it was probably my last chance. At first, I thought they were going to miss me, and then they made a slight turn and I yelled out “Help!” and they heard me. They covered me with as much dryclothes as they could, and a guy with me stayed to transfer his body heat to me.4. The author of the passage was alone in the sea NOT because ________.A. the wind was too strongB. the wave hit the boatC. the safety belt was brokenD. his boat was in the darkness5. He was not saved by his crew because ________.A. he didn’t yell out “Help!”B. 300 meters was long distanceC. he was not foundD. he didn’t see the spotlight6. It was inferred from the passage that ________.A. he was swept overboard at about midnightB. Wild One was the name of a crew memberC. he started ocean racing at about tenD. he was too hopeless to take the last chance7. One of the guy who saved him stayed with him in order to ________.A. cover him with more dry clothesB. warm him with his body heatC. comfort himD. congratulate himCAustralia is famous for its beautiful beaches. And Australian people love swimming and going to the beach. But it wasn't always that way.Different Climate, Different habitsWhen Europeans first invaded Australia, the only people here who were good at swimming were the Aboriginal people. The Europeans came from climates where it was too cold to swim. Also some people worried that they would get sick if they wet their whole body.However the warm climate of Australia soon changed their attitude to swimming. At first, only men swam. They swam naked - there were no women to see them.Cover up!By the 1880’s and 90’s visiting the beach was very fashionable and a lot of people went there, especially in warm weather. They wore everyday street clothes - much more than people wear at the beach today.In those days, people believed they should cover most of their body so it would not be seen by the opposite sex. Special bathing costumes were designed for women. These costumes used a lot of cloth and were very heavy when wet, making it difficult to swim.Laws Made and Laws ChangedThe government decided to stop men swimming naked. It passed a law which forbade bathing between 6am and 7pm. Many people objected to this law and wrote letters to the government asking it to change the laws. In 1903, the laws changed; people could swim in the daytime, but they had to wear neck-to-knee costumes.The Shrinking CostumeAs time passed, swimming costumes became smaller and more convenient.At first men and women were covered from neck to knee. Then the arms became bare. Then more of the legs were uncovered. Each new change was regarded by many as shocking and rude and people wrote letters to the newspapers complaining about the new costumes. Nowadays some people go to special "nude (裸的) beaches" to swim naked.However, most people cover their bodies more than they did ten years ago -- not because they think bare skin is shocking -- but to protect their skin from the harmful rays of the sun.8．The climate of Australia _____.A.made European setters think differently about swimmingB.change European setters’ swimming costumeC.made European setters hotterD.made European setters swim naked9．During the late 19th century, swimmers should _____.A.hide when they see a person of the opposite sexB.cover their bodiesC, wear many heavy clothes D.take no notice of their clothes10．According to the law just before1903, people must _____.A.not swim in the main daylight hoursB.only swim between 6am and 7pmC. have a bath at 6am and 7pmD.swim with neck-to-knee costumes between6am and 7pm11．The last paragraph of the passage states that _____.A.people worry about getting skin cancer from too much sunB.people protect their ten-year-old sons from bare skinC.people are shocked by the sunD.people think it rude to swim with the smaller costumesDChina, known as the “kingdom of bicycle”, will see a quick growth in electric bicycle production in the next five years thanks to the country’s efforts to save energy and improve the environment.The output of electric bikes is expected to maintain an annual growth rate of at least 80 percent in the coming five years. China will churn out 30 million electricity-driven bikes in 2010, compared to 9 million bikes last year, according to a report from the Development Research Center under the State Council and other ministries such as the National Development and Reform Commission.The central government wants to reduce the amount of energy consumption (消耗) by as much as 20 percent within the next five years. That would be achieved through the introduction of new sources of energy and encouraging people to save energy, China Daily reported.The smoke from car exhausts (尾气) is a major cause of pollution darkening the sky in Chinese cities, especially Beijing. Industrial experts on Monday, called on the government to come up with more preferential (优先的) measures to spread the use of electric bikes in China.Electric bike production in China accounts for about 90 percent of the world’s total, making China the world’s biggest producer, consumer and exporter of the energy-efficient vehicle, the report indicated. The country last year sold about 3 million electric bikes to foreign countries, a figure expected to double to 6 million in five years. By 2010, the production value of the electric bike industry in China is expected to be 70 billion Yuan (8.6 billion US dollars), almost four times the current level.12. Why will there be a quick growth in electric bicycle production in the next fiveyears in China?A. Because electric bicycles can save the consumer more money.B. Because the central government encourages people to save energy.C. Because most people in China can’t afford cars.D. Because the Chinese government limits the development of bicycle production.13. The underlined phrase “churn out” in the second paragraph has the same meaning as “_____”.A. makeB. sellC. designD. export14. According to the report, ________.A. China will produce 9 million electricity-driven bikes in 2010B. the central government of China wants to increase the amount of energyconsumptionC. China is the world’s second biggest producer, consumer and exporter of theenergy-efficient vehicleD. the output of electric bikes is expected to increase at least 80 percent inthe coming five years15.

AMore perhaps than any other European nation, the Swiss have got used to looking after foreign travelers. As early as the 18th century, wealthy French, Germans and Italians were treating the country as an amusement center while, in the 19th century, it became the major holiday playground for the British nobles. Today, it attracts visitors from all over the world.The Swiss are clear about the importance of tourism to their economy, which contributes about eight percent of Gross National Product, and helps the industry greatly. Managers of hotels from all over the world go to Switzerland to learn how to do the job, and a generally high standard can be expected from the great majority of the country’s hotels, most of which are small and pride themselves on a personalized service. Public transport is the best in Europe. Both the Swiss Federal railways and the private railways are fully electrified, and the total network is made up of about 5000 kilometers of track.Under the Fly Baggage system passengers can check luggage in at 116 railway stations and have it automatically carried to their flight. The national highway system is equally well planned, and the mountain roads offer views of some of the country’s most breathtaking scenery. Also serving the mountains is an effective system of railways and cable ways, while more than 160 passenger cars cross the lakes and rivers to and fro. Hiking in the mountains is equally popular with Swiss nationals and foreign visitors. For those who want to view the country from a height withouthaving to climb the mountain themselves, it is always possible to take in the view from a balloon.1.

We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I criedvery little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times. ”My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.8. How did the author get to know America?A. From her relativesB. From her motherC. From books and picturesD. From radio programs9. Upon leaving for America the author felt_______.A. confusedB. excitedC. worriedD. sad10. For the first two years in New York, the author_______.A. often lost her wayB. did not think about her futureC. studied in three different schoolsD. got on well with her stepfather11. The author believes that ________ .A. her future will be free from troublesB. it is difficult to learn to become patientC. there are more good things than bad thingsD. good things will happen if one keeps tryingDIf you want to learn anything at school, you need to listen to your teachers. Unfortunately, millions of kids can’t hear what their teachers are saying. And it’s not because these students are goofing off. Often, it’s the room’s fault. Building architecture and building design can create echo(回声)-filled classrooms that make hearing difficult.Children with hearing impairments（损伤）suffer most from noisy classrooms. They sometimes can’t hear questions that other students ask in class. Compared with kids with healthy hearing, they have a harder time picking up new vocabulary words by hearing them in talking.Even kids with normal hear ing have a harder time in the classroom when there’s too much noise. Younger children in particular have trouble separating important sounds –like a teacher’s voice –from background noise. Kids with learning disabilities and speech impediments（障碍）and kids for whom English is a second language also have a harder time learning in noisy situations.In recent years, scientists who study sound have been asking schools to reduce background noise, which may include loud air-conditioners and pipes. They’re also targeting outdoor noises, such as highway traffic. Noise reduction is a big deal. Why? Because quieter classrooms might make you smarter by letting you hear your lessons better.“It’s so obvious that we should have quiet rooms that allow for access to the l esson,” says Dan Ostergren, a hearing scientist. “Sometimes it surprises me that we spend so much time discussing this topic. I just want to go. Why is this hard for anyone to grasp?”12. The underlined part “goofing off” in the first paragraph can be repl aced by “”.A. lazyB. intelligentC. sleepyD. foolish13. Who is most affected by noisy classrooms?A. Children with learning disabilities.B. Children with speech impairments.C. Children with hearing impediments.D. Children with normal hearing.14. Why should noise be reduced in classrooms?A. Quiet classrooms are suitable for kids to have discussions.B. Quiet classrooms help kids recover from hearing impairments.C. Kids can’t separate sounds of air-conditioners and pipes.D. Kids can become smarter after hearing lessons better.15. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Classroom designB. Noisy classroomsC. The sense of hearingD. Disabled kids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。

【高一】辽宁省沈阳市2017-2018学年高一《英语》上学期期中试题及答案

辽宁省沈阳市2017-2018学年高一英语上学期期中试题第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题; 每小题2分，满分30分）AA year ago, my friend and I went to a nearby town to attend a wedding. After the reception, we were waiting for a public transport bus to go back home. It was nine o'clock at night, and although many buses passed, none stopped.We waited for an hour and were getting desperate. We wouldn't be able to stay overnight because it was a weekday, and we both needed to work the next day. It was almost 10 p.m. when a family who had attended the same wedding passed by in their car. Probably sensing that we were waiting for some means of transport, they stopped and gave us a lift. I was so touched by their kindness, and I expressed my gratitude (感谢)to them.When we reached my hometown, the family dropped us at the nearest point from where we could catch a shared taxi to get back to the spot where we had parked our bike. On the way, a laborer（工人） stopped the taxi. The driver saw his clothes and asked him whether he had money to pay the fare（车费）.The laborer shook his head and said, "No". On hearing this, the driver refused to take him. I remembered my own plight a few minutes earlier, and I told the driver to allow him to sit with us, as I would pay his fare. What an immediate opportunity to pass on the family's act of kindness! That night, I felt light-hearted and I went to sleep happily and filled with joy about what I had gotten to do. May this chain of kindness continue!21. Why the author and his friend waiting for a bus at nine o’clock at night?A. Because they were going to attend a wedding.B.

Uncaring. .B. Friendly.C. PositiveD. Respectful.23. The underlined word “plight” in paragraph 4 could best be replaced by “_________”.A. opportunityB. troubleC. kindnessD. tiredness24. What is the best title for the passage?A. A Kind and Helpful FamilyB. An Unusual WeddingC. Magic Chain of KindnessD. Attitude Decides EverythingBToday, we are told, children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to screen on a computer or a TV---they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.Children often need a helping hand from mom and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity, by giving wild time a go”.So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”.This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made youthink about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There is no age limit on enjoying yourself!25. According to Andy Simpson, we know that_____________.A. wild time is beneficial to childrenB. wild time is hard to designC. parents know the importance of wild timeD. parents like keeping their children indoors.26. Children are encouraged to do the following activities except____________.A. building densB. watching TVC. playing hide and seekD. climbing trees27. What is the best title of the text?A. Adventures of childrenB. Benefits of wild timeC. More space for childrenD. Wild time for childrenCFor an entire day, forget about the clock. Eat when you’re hungry and sleep when you’re tired. What do you think will happen?You may be surprised to find that your day is much like most other days. You’ll probably get hungry when you normally eat and tired when you normally sleep. Even though you don’t know what time it is, your body does.These patterns of daily life are called circadian rhythms（生理节奏）, and they are more than just habits. Inside our bodies are several clocklike systems that follow a roughly 24-hour cycle. Throughout the day and night, our inner clocks direct changes in temperature, body chemicals, hunger, sleepiness and more.Everyone’s rhythms are different, which is why you might like to stay up late while your sister always wants to go to bed early. But on the whole, everyone is programmed to feel tired at night and energetic during the day.Learning about our body clocks may help scientists understand why problems arise when we act out of step with our circadian rhythms. For example, traveling across time zones can make people wake up in the middle of the night. Regularly staying up late can make kids do worse in tests.“There is a growing sense that when we eat and when we sleep are important parts of how healthy we are,” says Steven She a, director of the Sleep Disorders Program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. One way to learn about how our body clocks tick is to mess them up and see what happens. That’s what neurologist（神经病学家）Frank Scheer and his workmates did in a recent study.Staying up night after night, their studies suggest, could make kids extra hungry and more likely to gain weight. And regularly sleeping too little, Scheer says, may be one cause of the recent increase in childhood obesity.28. What will happen if you forget about the clock according to the passage?A. Your body will not know what time it is. B . You will feel upset.C. You will behave normally.D. You will probably get hungry more easily.29. Mike feels energetic at 12 midnight while Tom feels sleepy. What advice would be given by the writer?A. Both should see a doctor.B. Tom should see a doctor.C. Mike should have a watch.D. Both should take it easy.30. How do Frank Scheer and his workmates study body clocks?A. By studying people traveling across time zones.B. By asking questions and collecting answers.C. By seeing what happens when they are messed up.D. By programming people with man-made clocks.31. What will the writer most probably talk about next?A. What circadian rhythms are.B. Medicines that can keep people from putting on weight.C. Why it is important to have a normal body clock.D. Other examples of what people will do when their body clocks go wrong.DBabies love reading stories with bright and colorful pictures.

Four steps will help you get the most out of each failure and move on.36 When you feel bad after failing, talk with your parents or good friends, or any other adult. Then decide to take the duty to improve yourself. Read the teachers’ comments on your test carefully.Ask yourself what you were trying to do and why you failed. 37 Maybe you didn’t have all the information you needed; maybe you made a mista ke or a poor decision. If so, give yourself a pat on the back. Fewer people ever get something right the first time they try it, and often it takes them many times. 38 Sometimes the failure isn’t because of something you did or didn’t do; it is someone else’s fault. But don’t spend time blaming them; instead, move on toward your goals. 39 Review the situation to see whatyour choices are. There is a different between making a decision and giving up. Deciding to follow a better way is one thing; simply walking away means you really have failed.Keep trying again. Successful people are different because they choose their next steps instead of just reacting to feelings. If a goal is still important to you, figure out what to do and go after it again. 40A. If it isn’t, do your best on something else.B. Usually it was because you were trying out a new skill or learning a new subject.C. Failure is unavoidable.D. Actually it was because you were very lazy.E. Don’t give up easi ly.F. No pains, no gains.G. Remove your bad feelings.第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）To me, kindness is a chosen lifestyle. In my classroom, I tell my 41 that every day they are offered a choice.

AAs the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.Ludwig van Beethoven(1770-1827)Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作曲). The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court(宫庭) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.Frederic Chopin (1810-1849)Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of hisearly works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.Franz Schubert(1797-1828)Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors(先辈),Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.1.

AWhen my father was dying, I traveled a thousand miles from home to be with him in his last days. It was far more heartbreaking than I’d expected, one of the mo stdifficult and painful times in my life. After he passed away I stayed alone in his apartment. There were so many things to deal with. It all seemed endless. I was lonely.I hated the silence of the apartment.But one evening the silence was broken: I heard crying outside. I opened the door to find a little cat on the steps. He was thin and poor. He looked the way I fell.I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then almost immediately fell sound asleep.The next morning I checked with neighbors and learned that the cat had been given up by his owner who’d moved out. So the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the apartment, I tried to figure out what to do with him. Having something else to take care of seemed like the very last thing I needed. But as soon as I opened the apartment door he came running and jumped into my arms. It was clear from that moment he had no intention of going anywhere. I started calling him willis, in honor of my father’s best friend.From then on, things grew easier. With willis in my lap, time seemed to pass much more quickly. When the time finally came for me to return home I had to decide what to do about Willis. There was absolutely no way I would leave without him.It’s no w been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have commented on how nice it was of me to rescue the cat. But I know that we rescued each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater.21. When the author first saw the cat, she .A. was very happyB. felt pity for himC. didn’t know what to doD. was angry at his crying22. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph suggests that the author .A. needed something to fill the empty apartmentB. loved to stay alone in the apartmentC. was too busy and tired to keep a catD. needed something to take care of to kill time23. We can learn from the passage that .A. Willis was named after his former ownerB. Willis didn’t like staying in the apartmentC. the author and Willis were both homelessD. time passed quickly after the author kept Willis24. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. A little lonely cat.B. A painful experience.C. How to take care of animals.D. What I got from a little cat.BMy house is made out of wood, glass and stone. It is also made out of software.If you come to visit, you’ll probably be surprised when you come in. Someone will give you an electronic PIN (个人身份号码) to wear. This PIN tells the house who and where you are. The house uses this information to give you what you need. When it’s dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, and then turns them off as you walk away from them. Music moves with you too. If the house knows your favorite music, it plays it. The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music. If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings.Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want something. There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you.The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact like many things we have today. If you want to go to a movie, you need a ticket. If I give you my car keys, you can use my car. The car works for you because you have the keys. My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.I believe that ten years from now，most new homes will have the systems that I’ve put in my house. The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I’ve put in today.I like to try new ideas. I know that some of my ideas will work better than others. But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and ask myselfinstead, “How will I live without them?”25. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. How to develop a new system.B. The function of the PIN.C. A home for the future.D. Easy life in the future.26. What's the purpose when the writer wrote the fourth paragraph?A. To let readers know why his ideas are new.B. To let readers know how special his house is.C. To explain the importance of the PIN and the console.D. To explain more easily what the functions of the PIN and the console are.27. The writer’s new house is differe nt from ordinary ones mainly because .A. it has been controlled by computersB. you can make a telephone call anywhereC. it has your favorite music following youD. the writer is able to change his new idea into practice28. What is the writer most likely to be according to the passage?A. An IT expert.B. A famous doctor.C. An idealist.D. An experienced teacher.C1.
