She became famous by accident.Her parents came to Africa with Julie many years ago when she was only five. They worked for a group called Save the Children, which helps poor children around the world. Julie soon made many new friends there. She became the best friend of a local boy called Kanu.One day Julie and Kanu were playing together. She was showing him how to use a camera. Then, Kanu wanted to take a photo of Julie with an interesting tree behind her. He couldn't fit her and the tree in the photo, so he told her to stand closer to the tree. He took a photo of Julie standing under the tree. Nothinghappened until they got the photo developed. When they looked at the photo, they saw something hanging down from the tree. At first, they thought it was a snake. Then they realized it was a leopard's tail. In the photo Julie was only about a metre away from it.Julie decided to go back to the tree to see if the leopard was still there. She wanted to get a better photo of her and the leopard. She and Kanu went in the middle of the day, because they knew that big cats are often asleep at that time of the day. As it so happened, the leopard was still there and was asleep, so they were able to get a good photo of Julie and the sleeping leopard together.After they got the photo of Julie with the leopard sleeping in the tree, they showed it to Kanu's father, who owned the local newspaper. He put the photo of Julie and the leopard in the Sunday paper. When people saw the photo, they wrote letters to the newspaper asking to see more, so Julie started to take more photos with lions, snakes and many other kinds of wild animals. Soon a lot of magazines started to buy the photos from her. Julie and her parents donated a lot of the money from these photos to Save the Children.It is strange that being famous can start from an accident.(1)What did Julie expect to see in the first photo?A.A snake.B.A leopard.C.Herself and an interesting tree.D.A leopard's tail.(2)Why did Julie and Kanu think it safe to go back and get another photo?A.Because big cats are often asleep in the middle of the day.B.Becausc Julie was standing under the tree.C.Because the leopard was not there.D.Because they are professional.(3)Who got the photo into the newspaper?A.Kanu's father.B.Julie's father.C.Kanu.D.Julie's parents.(4)What's the best title of this passage?A.A famous photo.B.Julie and a leopard.C.Famous by accident.D.A famous accident.4.Paul Zindel's death on March 27, 2003 ended the brilliant life of a famous writer.Not only did Paul Zindel win a Pulitzer Prize as well as an Obie Prize for his 1970 play The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds, but be was one of the earliest writers in the field of contemporary literature for young adults. The Pigman, published in 1968, is still one of the most well-known and widely-taught novels in the genre. The American Library Association has named it one of the 100 Best of the Best Books for Young Adults published between 1967 and 1992, and Zindel's autobiography, The Pigman and Me, was among the 100 Best of the Best Books published for teenagers during the last part of the twentieth century. Six of Zindel's books, in fact, have been voted the Best Books for Young Adults, and most of his recent horror books—such as The Doom Stone and Rats—have been chosen as Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers. Clearly, he was a writer who knew how to interest contemporary children. Recognizing that, the American Library Association in 2002 honored Paul Zindel with the Margaret A. Edwards Prize for his lifetime achievements, and later that same year he was presented with the ALAN Prize for his contributions to Young Adult Literature. With his passing, young readers, teachers, and librarians have lost a great friend.(1)Which of Paul Zindel's books was the most popular with young adults in the 20th century?A.The Pigman and Me.B.The Doom Stone and Rats.C.The Pigman.D.The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in e-Moon Marigolds.(2)Why was Paul Zindel honored with the Margaret A. Edwards Prize?A.His recent horror books were widely read by children.B.His books were interesting and helpful to adults.C.He made great contributions to contemporary literature.D.He wrote a number of horror books for young adults.(3)When did Paul Zindel win the ALAN Prize?A.In 2002.B.In 2003.C.Between 1967 and 1992.D.Between 2002 and 2003.(4)Choose the correct statements from the following according to the passage.a. The Pigman and Me was one of the Best Books for teenagers.b. Zindel was one of the earliest writers who wrote for adults only.c. The Doom Stone and Rats are not popular with young adults.d. Zindel was given four prizes for literature before he died.e. At least eight of Zindel's books were very popular in his times.A.c,d,eB.a,d,eC.a,b,dD.a,b,c5.Airline travel causes roughly 2%—3% of the pollution that makes the greenhouse effect worse. Airplanes powered by a very common gas called hydrogen(氢)could change all of that. Last Thursday, a company called ZeroAvia made a successful test flight of what it calls the "largest hydrogen-powered aircraft in the world". Many companies are working on hydrogen-powered vehicles, but ZeroAvia's test flight used a plane that can seat 6 people—the largest hydrogen powered plane ever flown. ZeroAvia made a similar flight in June, but that one was battery-powered.Hydrogen can be used to power vehicles by combining it with oxygen in a "fuel cell", which is like a battery that never runs out as long as it has hydrogen. The chemical reaction which takes place between hydrogen and oxygen in a fuel cell creates electricity, but doesn't give off any pollution—only water. Thursday's flight was an important step in the company's HyFlyer project. The company is hoping to make it possible for airlines to carry small numbers of passengers for short distances without polluting. The company's next big goal is to make a longer flight—of about 465 kilometers or more—by the end of the year. ZeroAvia believes passengers could actually be flying on hydrogen-powered airplanes by 2023.Another company called Gravity Industries put on a test of its jet suit recently to show how it could help emergency medical workers reach injured people quickly. The jet suit is powered by small jets on each arm and one on the back. By pointing the jets at the ground, the pilot can take off. Returning to the ground is just a matter of pointing both arms out to the side. Richard Browning, the suit's inventor, flew up a mountain to find some people who were pretending to be hurt(for the test). To reach the spot by climbing the mountain would have taken 25 minutes. Mr. Browning was able to cover the same distance in just 90 seconds. One problem? The cost. The suit sells for about $440,000.(1)Compared with similar ones, what advantage does ZeroAvia's aircraft have?A.It has its own fuel cell.B.It flies faster and longer.C.It can be battery powered.D.It can contain more people.(2)What is ZeroAvia's opinion about its hydrogen-powered aircraft?A.It'll be more costly than ever.B.It'll be available for real soon.C.It'll rid the greenhouse effect.D.It'll get jet suits more popular.(3)Which aspect of the jet suit does paragraph 3 mainly focus on?A.How it helps people land.B.How it was tested.C.How it was invented.D.How it saves people's lives.(4)What is the suitable title for the text?A.New Flying Inventions Take offpanies Develop New PlanesC.Flying Fuel Cells Are Used WidelyD.Jet Suits Are on ZeroAvia's Planes6.

This year’s winner is a little different.Shigeru Ban has designed museums, homes and concert halls. But Ban is best known for a more simple kind of work: the temporary (暂时的) buildings for people who became homeless after disasters.Ban may be the only designer in the world who makes buildings out of paper —cardboard paper tubes (管). Ban actually tested the strength of cardboard tubes, and said he was surprised by what he had discovered. He has used them to build temporary buildings in Japan, Haiti, China and elsewhere.“After a disaster, the building material is going to be more expensive,” Ban explains. “But the paper tube is actually not a building materi al. It is cheap and plentiful. We can get the material easily anywhere. And unlike costs for traditional building materials, the price of paper tubes doesn’t jump after an earthquake or flood. The tubes are also lightweight, so you don’t need heavy machines to work with them.”Ban started using cardboard paper tubes in the 1980s. At that time he had just graduated from the architecture school, and he was looking for a cheap substitute for wood. So he started reusing the paper cardboard tubes that were left over from rolls of paper in his office.Ban was born in Tokyo and studied architecture in the U.S. before moving back to Japan to start his practice. Some of Ban’s temporary buildings have become permanent (永久的), like the paper church he built after the 1995 earthquake in Kobe, Japan.60. The author uses the first paragraph to .A. raise an argumentB. give an introductionC. give an exampleD. offer a description61. What is special about Shigeru Ban?A. He failed to get this year’s architecture prize.B. He graduated from the best architecture school in the U.S.C. He is good at building houses for homeless people.D. He builds special houses for special groups of people.62. Why did Shigeru Ban choose cardboard paper tubes?A. Because they are cheap and easy to take away.B. Because they are strong and last for a long time.C. Because they are plentiful and look very beautiful.D. Because they are common and hard to break.63. What does the underlined word “substitute” probably refer to?A. A new way of building houses by using wood.B. A new method of producing cardboard paper tubes.C. A new kind of building material to take the place of wood.D. A new machine to produce a new kind of building material.CMy name is Jack. I am eighteen years old and next fall I will go to college. So far I have not done any things that are really interesting. I have not seen a natural wonder of the world.I have not thought up any amazing ideas. I have not met anyone famous. I have not even swum in the Pacific Ocean.Some weeks ago, I read an article written by a teenager. He has cancer and doesn’t have many days left. He is traveling around the world to do what he really wants to do before he dies. What he wrote made me realize that I need to go out and experience life. It is not like I am unhappy with my life now. I just think there is much more to see and do outside my home and school.Mahatma Gandhi said, “Learn as if you were to live forever. Live as if you were to di e tomorrow.” This quote makes me have a strong desire (渴望) to experience a more exciting life. The life given us by nature is short, but the memory of a life well spent lasts forever. I hope that when I look back on my life many years from now, I will be a ble to say, “I saw that, I did that, and I was a part of that.” Now I do not know what “that” is, but if it is something special enough to remember fifty, sixty, or seventy years later, I will be happy to do it.64. In Para. 1, the author wants to show that .A. he wants to have a change in collegeB. he lives a very boring life every dayC. he is just like any other young man in the worldD. he hasn’t done anything exciting in his life so far65. What do we know about the teenager mentioned in Para. 2?A. He is a popular writer.B. He has passed away.C. He wants to make good use of his remaining days.D. He is interested in nothing now because of his cancer.66. What does the author want to tell us?A. We should learn well about our life.B. We should quit school for a better life.C. We should spend every day studying.D. We should live every day to its fullest.DWe now only sleep for six hours and 41 minutes each night and half of us have no chance of a weekend lie-in, a new study shows. And it seems even during the week, we are struggling to get enough shut-eye.It is said that two-thirds of us are sleeping for only six hours and 27 minutes every night, one hour and 33 minutes shorter than the normal daily amount (总额) of sleep —eight hours. More than 27 percent are getting less sleep than they did a year ago. Instead of a weekend lie-in, most people will choose 11 minutes of extra snooze button (睡眠键) time, which could be bad for health. 68 percent now use their mobile phone to wake them up every morning. Four out of ten adults say they set their wake-up call earlier than needed, then hit the snooze button on their mobile phones twice for an 11 minute s’ rest, in order to make their bodies feel like they have had more sleep.Professor Stevie Williams said, “Setting your alarm clock much earlier and continually pressing the snooze button actually makes you feel even weaker after a night’s sleep. Napping in this way can make you miss out on the important REM sleep, which happens just before you wake up. And it is necessary for you to use the weekend to catch up on the sleep debt during the week.”A third of adults are kept awake at night because of money worries, a quarter can’t fall asleep due to family problems, and just under one-fifth worry about work stresses. Being short of sleep is extremely harmful to a person’s heath and well-being. But we have to stop treating sleep as a luxury (奢侈品), and realize that it is necessary to get eight hours of sleep every night.67. What can we know about REM sleep?A. We should avoid it before we wake up each day.B. It happens before we wake up and is good for our health.C. It’s useless to enjoy this stage of sle ep before we wake up.D. It can do harm to our health as it makes us wake up earlier.68. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph?A. To show what keeps us awake.B. To tell us why we need to treat sleep seriously.C. To give us some tips on how to get a sound sleep.D. To offer some evidence that sleep is a kind of luxury.69. The author writes the passage in order to tell us that we should .A. avoid working late into the nightB. get enough sleep and know its importanceC. try to keep a balance between family and workD. replace the unhealthy lifestyle with a healthy one70. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. What an eight-hour sleep meansB. Why people need to sleep every dayC. How to get a sound sleepD. Enough sleep is very importantEAre African wild dogs really dogs? What’s the difference between African wild dogs and the dogs we know as pets? For one thing, African wild dogs, which live in Africa, only have four toes, while domestic (驯养的) dogs and wolves have five. But you won’t want to count for yourself, because they are truly wild animals.“Wild dogs are not somebody’s domestic dogs that ran away and didn’t come back, although some people used to think that,” explains Dr. McNutt, who studies these animals at Wild Dog Research Camp in the African country of Botswana. “They are actually Africa’s wolves, and just like wolves, they do not make good pets. They need to be out in the wild doing what they are supposed to do —find the food they need to survive and feed their babies.” In fa ct, they travel so far that researchers have to use radio collars (颈圈) to keep track of them. The collars send out radio signals that tell people where the dogs are. No two wild dogs have the same pattern of coats, so it is easy to tell them apart.African wild dogs are smart and sociable, like pet dogs. Adult dogs, male and female, are willing to take good care of young ones.Millions of domestic dogs live on the planet, but there are probably fewer than 6,000 African wild dogs left. Humans hunt them, an d farmers who don’t want them to go after cows and sheep poison them. Humans are also destroying the wild, natural habitat (栖息地) they need to survive in. Fortunately, today more farmers are finding other ways to protect their cows and sheep from African wild dogs instead of killing the animals.71. Which of the following can explain why African wild dogs are different from domestic dogs?A. African dogs can live longer than domestic dogs.B. African dogs are much bigger in size than domestic dogs.C. African dogs have fewer toes than domestic dogs.D. African dogs are much more dangerous than domestic dogs.72. In Dr. McNutt’s view, African wild dogs .A. generally are not used to living in groupsB. can be trained as pet dogsC. actually are missing domestic dogsD. are a kind of wolves73. What’s the researchers’ purpose of using radio collars?A. To tell African wild dogs apart from other dogs.B. To play games with African wild dogs.C. To know where African wild dogs go.D. To prevent African wild dogs from traveling too far.74. What suggestion does the author give in the last paragraph?A. African wild dogs should be protected instead of being killed.B. Farmers should use domestic dogs to fight against wild dogs.C. Farmers should take responsibility for feeding African wild dogs.D. African wild dogs should be used to protect farmers’ cows and sheep.75. Which of the following can be used as the title of the passage?A. How to keep wild dogsB. An introduction to African wild dogsC. How to train domestic dogsD. Differences between domestic dogs and wild dogs第三部分写作(共两节, 满分35分)第一节任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

The first semester was filled with excitement and anxiety in equal measure. Every day seemed like a new adventure, yet the pressure to excel academically and socially weighed heavily on my shoulders. It was during this time that I embarked on a journey of 1 discovery, a journey that taught me invaluable lessons about myself.One of the most significant challenges I faced was 2 with my peers. Coming from a different background, I felt like an outsider at times. I struggled to find common ground and feared being judged for my differences. However, through participating in various extracurricular activities and opening up to my classmates, I gradually learned to 3 the beauty in diversity and embrace my uniqueness.Another turning point came when I was assigned to a difficult math course. Math had always been a 4 subject for me, and the thought of struggling through it filled me with dread. But instead of giving up, I decided to face my fears head-on. With the help of my teacher and countless hours of 5, I managed to not only pass the course but also develop a deeper appreciation for the subject. This experience taught me resilience and the importance of perseverance.Moreover, the semester brought about a renewed sense of 6towards learning. As I delved deeper into my studies, I discovered a passion for literature thatI never knew existed. Reading books from diverse cultures and time periods broadened my horizons and sparked a curiosity within me. I realized that education was not just about acquiring knowledge but also about fostering a lifelong love for learning.Through these experiences, I came to understand that life is full of 7 and uncertainties. But it is precisely these challenges that shape us into the individuals we become. I learned to embrace the unknown, to have courage in the face of adversity, and to cherish every moment of growth and self-discovery.Cloze Test Questions (with Options and Answer Key)1.A. personalB. culturalC. scientificD. socialAnswer: A2.A. fitting inB. standing outC. keeping upD. breaking awayAnswer: A3.A. recognizeB. createC. ignoreD. reject Answer: A4.A. fascinatingB. challengingC. relaxingD. enjoyable Answer: B5.A. practiceB. leisureC. debateD. research Answer: A6.A. enthusiasmB. skepticismC. boredomD. apathy Answer: A7.A. certaintiesB. opportunitiesC. obstaclesD. routines Answer: CNote: The passage and questions are designed to test students’ understanding of context, vocabulary, and logical reasoning while engaging in a meaningful topic of self-discovery and growth.六、语言运用第二节 _ 语法填空(15分)For the Grammar Fill-in-the-Blanks SectionDirections: Read the following passage.

They have fewer physical complaints,less frequent visits to the doctor, and smaller medical bills.In a word,they are in the most natural conditions(状况)of life.2.__________________Planet earth is suffering.In large measure,the great loss of species,destruction(破坏)of ancient rainforests to create lands where animals can feed on grass,loss of top soils,and the increase of water impurities(杂质)and air pollution have a common cause which is the single fact of meat in the human diet.No single decision that we can make as individuals(个人)or as a race can have such a dramatic effect on the improvement of our planetary ecology(生态)as the decision not to eat meat.Many seeking to save the planet for future generations(代)have made this decision for this reason and this reason alone.3.The economic reasonThe simple fact is that to produce1kilogram of meat,it requires over16kilograms of grain and much more lions of animals are bred(喂养)for meat production.If they were not bred,the vegetation would be used to feed people.And more people in hunger would have their food.36.Vegetarians prefer to live on vegetables for the reasons EXCEPTthat_______.A.vegetables are easier to digestB.they provide more kinds of nutrientsC.vegetables are cleaner than meatD.the body will have fewer burdens37.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to thispassage?A.Vegetarians will spend no money on medical care.B.Vegetarians have more children in their life.C.Vegetarians are usually thinner.D.Vegetarians can save the planet for future generations.38.What might be the proper title for the second part?A.The ecological reason.B.The pollutant reason.C.The plant reason.D.The generation reason.39.Which of the following might the writer agree?A.Fewer animals should be bred to produce more grain for people.B.Animals shouldn’t be raised.C.We should save animals.D.Living on vegetables can solve the problem of hunger.40.If people live on vegetables,which of the following may NOTbe affected(影响)by it?A.Species(物种)of animals.B.Air quality.C.People’s health.D.Grain quality(B)Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman,New York.,in1852.His family were very poor farmers,and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer.He took a short business course,and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest,but he soon learned something more important.One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends(小商品)for as much as he could get.Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH.People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards,Woolworth opened his own store.,selling goods at five and ten cents.But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful.That is,if you want to make money by selling low-price goods,you have to buy them in large quantities directly from the factories.Once,for example,Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives.The order was so large that the factory had to keep running24hours a day for a whole year.In this way,the price of the knives was cut down by half.By1919,Woolworth had over1000stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London.He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world.He always run his business according to strict rules,of which the most important was:“THE CUSTOMER(顾客)IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”41.Frank took a short business course in order to____________.A.earn more money for his familyB.learn something from a salesmanC.get away from the farmD.get enough to eat.42.Frank sold the odds and ends quickly because_____________.A.he knew how to get people to buy his goods.B.he cut down the price by halfC.he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way.D.the sign he put on the table was well designed.43.The price of the knives was cut down by half because_______.A.the factory workers worked24hours a day.B.knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.C.the knives were made in Germany,where labour(劳动力)was cheap.D.the knives were produced in one factory.44._____________make Woolworth a world-famous man.A.His business skills and his wealth.B.The low price of the goods he sold.C.His trip to Germany and his huge order of knives.D.His natural skill for showing things.45.The belief that:“The customer is always right”suggests that______A.whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and shopassistant,the customers are always right.B.If you want to succeed,the rule is the only way.C.stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they want tomake more money.D.stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if theywant to be successful.(C)About ten men in every hundred suffer from(患病)color blindness in some way.Women are luckier;only about one in two hundred is affected(影响)in this matter.Perhaps,after all,it is safer to be driven by a woman!There are different forms of color blindness.In some cases(情况)a man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red,orange and yellow are all shadows of green.Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green.In rare(罕见的)cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green-a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain.In a single eye there are millions of very small things called“cones”.These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors.There are also millions of“rods”,but these are used for seeing when it is near dark.They show us shape but no color.Some insects(昆虫)have favorite colors.Mosquitoes(蚊子)prefer blue to yellow.A red light will not attract insects,but a blue lamp will.In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky.With the aid(帮助)of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day,and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes(形状)at night.One day we may even learn more about the invisible(看不见的)colors around us.46.The passage is mainly about_____________.A.color and its surprising effects.B.women being luckier than menC.danger caused by color blindnessD.color blindness47.According to the passage,with the help of the“cones”,wecan_______________.A.tell different shapesB.see in a weak lightC.kill mosquitoesD.tell orange from yellow48.Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?A.Women are more careful.B.There are fewer color-blind womenC.Women are fonder of driving than men.D.Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.49.Which of the statements about the color-blind is true?A.Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.B.None of them can see deep red.C.None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.D.All of them see everything in shades of green.50.We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a_____________.A.red lightB.yellow lightC.blue lightD.green light(D)Rome had the Forum(论坛).London has Speaker’s Corner.Now always-on-the-go New Yorkers have Liz and Bill.Liz and Bill,two college graduates in their early20s,have spent awhole year trying to have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on busy street comers.And just talk.Using a2-foot-tall sign that says,“Talk to Me,”they attract conversationalist(谈话者),who one evening included a mental patient,(精神病人)and men in business suits.They don’t collect money.They don’t push religion(宗教).So what’s the point?“To see what happens,”said Liz.“We simply enjoy life with open talk.”Shortly after the September11,2001attacks(袭击),they decided to walk from New York City to Washington,a270-mile trip.They found they loved talking to people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers(陌生人)after their return.“It started as a crazy(疯狂的)idea.”Liz said.“We were so curious(好奇的)about all the strangers walking by with their life stories.People will talk to us about anything:their job,their clothes, their childhood experiences,anything.”Denise wanted to talk about an exam she was about to take.She had stopped by for the second time in two days,to let the two listeners know how it went.Marcia had led her husband to a serious disease.“That was very heavy on my mind.”Marcia said.“To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very good,”she explained.To celebrate a year of talking,the two held a get-together(聚会)in a city park for all the people they had met over the past year.A few hundred people appeared(到来),as well as(和)some television cameramen and reporters.They may plan more parties or try to attract more people to join their informal(非正式的)talks.Some publishers have expressed interest in a book,something the two say they’ll consider(考虑)before making a decision.51.What did Liz and Bill determined to do after the attack on September11,2001?A.Telling stories to strangers.B.Setting up street signs.C.Talking with peopleanizing a speaker’s party.52.What they have been doing can be described as____________.A.pointless(无意义的)B.normal(正常的)C.crazyD.successful53.Why are Denise and Marcia mentioned in the text?A.They knew Liz and Bill very well.B.They happened to meet the writer of the text.C.They organized the get-together in the city park.D.They are examples of those who talked to Liz and Bill.54.What will Liz and Bill do in the future?A.Go in for publishingB.Do more television programs.C.Continue what they are doingD.Spend more time reading books.55.How do they like the idea of writing a book?A.They have decided to wait a year or two.B.They will think about it carefullyC.They agreed immediatelyD.They find it hard to do that.高一英语必修一模块检测答题卡第II卷(共65分)四根据句意,用单词的适当形式填空。
