浙江省杭州第十四中学2023-2024学年高一上学期期中阶段性测试英语试卷

浙江省杭州第十四中学2023-2024学年高一上学期期中阶段性测试英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解There are many podcasts (播客) that teach English and you can listen to them anytime. Here is a list of some of the best podcasts that you must see.Learn English PodcastThis podcast has three levels.The first is for beginners, the second is for intermediates (中级学生) and the third is for upper intermediates. If a person wants to learn Business English,then episodes are also made for him.Every podcast is short but very informative. Worksheets and vocabulary tasks are also included.Speaking BroadlyThis podcast is made for advanced learners. Explained through discussion and interviews, each episode has non-native English speakers and every recording also has expert feedback. You will see some common mistakes made by English learners and you can improve your English by learning from those mistakes.The English We SpeakThis podcast airs one episode daily and every episode is only three to four minutes, which talks about phrases and idioms.There are two people in each episode who communicate with each other. Whatever level you are,you will find it rewarding Elementary PodcastThis podcast is mainly for beginners and intermediate level learners. The length of a podcast is around 25 minutes but you can pause it anytime and continue whenever you want. The hosts of each episode are different.1.Which podcast provides exercises going with it?A.Learn English Podcast.B.Speaking Broadly.C.The English We Speak D.Elementary Podcast.2.What do we know about Speaking Broadly?A.It records just expert speakers.B.It aims at beginners.C.It presents some typical mistakes.D.It provides feedback from listeners. 3.What do The English We Speak and Elementary Podcast have in common?A.They have the same length.B.They are both interactive.C.They share the same contents.D.They are suitable for beginners.I just flew from Berlin, Germany, to Atlanta,Gcorgia, and it took me 24 hours due lo the weather-related delay during my stopover in New York. Like many other passengers, I was so worm out, annoyed, and helpless that I could barely hold it together.The pilot, called Thiemy Beyeler, was different. He left the flight deck and walked to the dissatisfied passengers to apologize and comfort them.The pilot's appropriate behavior set the tone and ensured no one got angry. It reminded me of the beauty of “elegance(优雅)under pressure”. Thierry Beyeler was a pilot with Swiss International Air Lines, for which he flew various aircraft. During the delay, I had the chance to speak to Beyelor and learn about his experience as a pilot.He said, “Flying is a bit like eating chocolate. I love every flight. However, when you have 16 flights in four days, then that's too much chocolate for me..." As for crisis(危机)situations, he did have a few. “Once, I had an engine failure, but that's rare, and we handled it. Another time, we had smoke in the cabin,and we went to land quickly. In end, it was just the air conditioning having some problems…."He believes, "As Murphty's law puts it, 'What can be wrong will go wrong'. So think about it and try to prepare mentally."Beyeler continued, "Compared with cars, a flight is a high-risk environment; it's not like riding a bike. Even if there was a minor error, it could have fatal consequences. Every pilot is quite professional in the field. But it is the strong mindset(观念模式)in the chaos(混乱)that plays the key role. Humans stop in technical systems to solve items countless times a day, and it would be dangerous if the pilot became nervous and forgot that."I’ve been touched by Beycler's words. I understand that human factors, including confidence, courage, sensibility, and emotional intelligence are becoming more and more important in today's world.4.How did Beyeler sound facing the long delay according to the text?A.Discouraged and tired.B.Calm and positive.C.Helpless and anxious.D.Annoyed and cold-hearted.5.What does Beycler want to show by mentioning"eating chocolate"?A.Flying brings him much fun.B.Flying involves various crisis situations.C.Too many flight tasks can be unacceptable for him.D.Too many crisis situations have Happened to him.6.What does Beyeler consider important for pilots during crises?A.Gaining a good sense of time.B.Having great strength of mind.C.Knowing all the technical systems well.D.Having a good grasp of professional knowledge.7.What did the author think of his communication with Beyeler?A.Boring. B.Frightening. C.Rewarding D.ConfusingMandy and Joe have been married for five years and they both love travelling to newall the planning and book.” says Mandy. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy it, but if Joe paid a bit more attention, he wouldn’t have turned up for a flight to Grenada packed for a winter city break. ‘Jumpers and boots?!’I cried.’ You’re supposed to have packed shorts and T-s—it’s 30℃ in the Caribbean!!Then I realized he thought we were going to Granada, in Spain.”How Joe and Mandy each approach their travel plans is just one example of the many ways in which men and women differ. Yet, is what goes on inside our minds and bodies really so different? Furthermore, are we born that way?On this issue, scientists are divided. The majority of scientists believed that patterns of behavior thought to be: male or female are learnt firstly from our parents, then from our peers(同伴)and, ultimately, from the societies in which we live. As Simone de Beauvoir famously said, “One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman.”On the other side of the fence sat those who believed that male and female brains are actually wired (与生俱来的) differently. In one study in which 34 monkeys were required to interact with different types of toys, the males showed s strong preference for toys with wheels rather than soft toys, whereas the females were noticeably drawn to soft toys. These preferences were clearly not the result of parental influence.Whatever the truth behind the differences between men and women, we can safely conclude that although the social impact on how we think and behave is undoubted, there exists a biological contribution. The question that now needs answering is to what degree biology affects the choices we make and the way other people treat us.8.What does the underlined word “contention” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A.Satisfaction.B.Disagreement C.Influence.D.Information 9.What topic does the text focus on?A.Whether men and women are different B.Why minds and bodies are so different.C.How different males and females are.D.What causes the sex difference. 10.What does the study about monkeys prove?A.Monkeys have their own preferences.B.Parents indeed have strong impacts.C.Men and women are born different.D.Females and males behave differently. 11.Which statement about sex differences does the author probably agree with?A.Biology leads to the differences.B.Biology mostly affects our choices.C.Social influence can be ignored.D.Peers have more impact than parents.Scientists in Switzerland have used lasers (激光) to change the path of a lightning strike. The experiment was carried out on Santis mountain in Switzerland, near a radio and TV tower hit by lightning about 100 times a year. Using a special laser, the researchers were able to guide the lightning strike.Scientists have been trying to find a way to protect buildings from lightning for a long time. At present, the best way to protect buildings from lightning is by putting metal rods (杆) on the buildings. These rods are connected to the ground. The lightning is attracted to the rods, which safely guide the electricity into the ground. But lightning rods can only protect a small area. If a building is very large, it needs a lot of lightning rods. But some buildings-such as airports-are so large that it’s difficult to protect the whole building using lightning rods.Another idea is to use lasers to guide lightning. The idea of using lasers to guide lightning isn’1new. Scientists have been working on the idea for over 20 years. They’ve successfully guided lightning with lasers inside a laboratory. But until 2021, scientists guided lightning with lasers outside. Using a powerful laser that can fire about 1, 000 times a second, scientists in Switzerland were able to guide lightning bolts for 164 feet (50 meters).The heat from the laser creates a path of air that is less thick than the air around it. The path also has a special charge. The lightning can follow this path almost as if it were a lightning rod. In the past, experiments with lasers that fired more slowly didn’t work.Managing to guide the lightning in an outdoor environment is a very big step. But despite the progress, the laser still isn’t a good choice when it comes to protecting large buildings.A.equip it with metal rods B.position it away from airportsC.build it on low-lying open ground D.keep it away from any kind of metal 13.What enables the laser to guide the lightning?A.Its color.B.Its brightness.C.Its speed.D.Itsconcentration.14.What will the paragraph following the text probably talk aboutA.How the laser should be improved to protect large buildings.B.When the laser will be widely used to protect large buildings.C.Why it is unnecessary to use the laser to protect large buildings.D.What prevents the laser from being used to protect large buildings.15.What is the best title for the textA.Scientists Find a New Use of the LaserB.Scientists Guide Lightning with the LaserC.A New Idea Has Been Tested to Guide LightningD.A New Way to Protect Buildings Has Been Found二、七选五Reading a dog’s body language requires experience and expert guidance. Zazie Todd, a dog trainer and founder of the blog Companion Animal Psychology, thinks about how to understand dogs’ behaviour.16They’re expecting punishment but don’t necessarily know their behavior is wrong. Alexandra Horowitz, a professor at Barnard College who researches dogs’ cognition(认知), points out the “guilty” look is linked to being scolded by the owner.If your dog licks their mouthThey’re stressed. Recently, two European studies have highlighted the meaning of this licking. One found that it was a dog’s response to seeing an angry or aggressive human face on a computer screen. 17 If you spot this sign, try reducing your dog’s stress levels. It could be as simple as giving them more physical space.If there are fireworks and your dog is shaking18 This is a common reaction, but a surprising number of people don’t realize that shaking and trembling are signs of fear. Whereas only a quarter of owners say their dog is afraid of loud noises, half report these behavioral signs.If you are at the vet and your dog’s tail is downThey’re anxious. Obvious signs of an unhappy dog include hiding or trying to leave the exam room, but commonly missed triggers range from a tucked tail and lowered ears to trembling. 19 Many vets now use food to make the experience more fun.If your dog leans into you during a petting timeThey like it! If you’re unsure that a dog is enjoying being petted, stop, then watch their reaction. If they choose to wander off, the petting time is over. Other signs of discomfort include sniffing the floor, looking away and breathing heavily. However, if they lean on you or paw at you to get more hugs, continue! 20A.This behavior means they like it.B.They are frightened by the noises.C.If your dog gets stressed at appointments, ask what can be done.D.If your dog looks guilty when you walk in the door and see a mess.E.Start to pet them and remain nearby so that your dog would be comforted.F.The other determined that dogs lick their mouths in response to a mild threat.G.Preferred parts on their bodies are to either side of the chest and under the chin.三、完形填空I argued with my sixteen-year-old son Anthony again. I rushed out of the house withprepared a piece of cake, Anthony’s favorite 31 .He stared at the plate eagerly, but there was still a hit of 32 in his eyes.He looked at me and 33 asked why I had no one word about his hair.I said it was only hair.

She’s going to the library.B. They are go to the cinema.C. He likes playing the football.D. We’re having lunch now.Answer: A & DExplanation:A is correct because it uses the correct future tense form ‘going to’.B is incorrect because ‘are’ should be followed by ‘going’ in the futuretense.

D is correct because it uses the present continuous tense correctly.Question 2:Which words can be used to describe the picture of a cat? (Choose two.)A. LazyB. ActiveC. RoundD. SquareE.

A (In the past) and B (In the present) refer to times before and during the current moment, respectively. E (At present) is a synonym for “now” or “currently” and does not refer to the future.Question 5:Which two options ar e correct uses of the word “affect” in a sentence?A. The medicine had an affect on her health.B. He affected his voice to sound like a woman.C. The storm didn’t affect me.D. I was affected by her kindness.E. He affected the room with his presence.Answer: A & DExplanation:“Affect” can be used as a noun (A) to mean “influence” or as a verb (D) to mean “to influence someone or something”. B uses “affected”incorrectly as a synonym for “imitated” or “changed”. C uses “affect”correctly as a verb, but without a direct object, which is less common.

浙江省杭州第十四中学(康桥)2024-2025学年高一上学期10月阶段性测试英语试卷
浙江省杭州第十四中学(康桥)2024-2025学年高一上学期10月阶段性测试英语试卷一、阅读理解Ideas of making the first week of high school easyFrank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day of high school. 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!Sharon, 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 learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to do.Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school, I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled (家中教学) 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. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen (高年级学生) 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.1.What can we infer (推断) from Sharon about high school?A.Teachers are quite strict.B.Students often stay up at night.C.Teachers provide much care for students.D.Students should make good use of their time.2.How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A.Bored.B.Excited.C.Worried.D.Relaxed.3.Who mentions the importance of friends?A.Frank.B.Eddie.C.Sharon.D.David.“Lives of great men all remind us that we can make our lives sublime (崇高的)” is a line from A Psalm of Life (《人生颂》) that Chen Lin read in a Learn video when he was 96 years old.With a “life is to give, not to take” attitude, Chen Lin devoted his life to the development of foreign language education in China.Born in 1922, Chen worked in foreign education for more than 70 years. In 1950, he started teaching at Beijing Foreign Studies University. At the university, Chen was known for his nickname of “Three UP Professor”, since he always insisted on “standing up” and “speaking up” when teaching. Also, when class was over, he would instantly “shut up”.In the 1980s, in most English classes, teachers did most of the speaking, while students mostly only listened. But Chen encouraged students to speak and practice more. Outside of class, Chen still tried his best to popularize English among common people. In 1981, he took part in the TV program Follow Me (《跟我学》) and taught people English in a fun way, which started a craze for learning English.In 1999, Chen led experts to develop English curriculum standards (课程标准). Before that, English teaching goals from primary to university were not connected. But the standards changed the situation, making English education work like “one package”.To help students learn English more effectively, Chen advised providing suitable English-learning material for students at different levels. “I have been a teacher all my life, and I want to be an English teacher again in my next life.” Chen said.“I think there is no more noble profession than to teach and make students useful to the people.”4.What can we know according to the passage?A.Chen Lin was the leading expert in developing English curriculum standards.B.Most teachers encouraged students to speak and practice more in the 1980s.C.Chen Lin was famous for his attitude toward life.D.Chen Lin created Follow Me alone to encourage students to learn English.5.Why did Chen Lin teach people English in the TV program Follow Me?A.To become more famous in China.B.To make English popular among common people.C.To encourage more people to attend his class.D.To show his fun way of teachingEnglish.6.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Chen Lin decided to teach English again.B.Chen Lin thought only teaching was a noble profession.C.Chen Lin was proud of being an English teacher.D.Chen Lin hoped more people could become English teachers.7.Which of the following words can best describe Chen Lin?A.Humorous and generous.B.Devoted and enthusiastic.C.Intelligent and independent.D.Energetic and honest.What kind of people can become scientists? When a group of researchers posed that question to ninth-and 10th-graders, almost every student gave such responses as “People who work hard” or “Anyone who seems interested in the field of science.”Many of these same students struggled to imagine themselves as scientists, citing concerns such as “I’m not good at science” and “Even if I work hard, I will not do well.” It’s easy for them to see a scientist’s work as arising from an inborn talent.But for high school students, learning more about some struggles of scientists can help students feel more motivated to learn science. Researchers at Teachers College, Columbia University and the University of Washington designed an intervention to change students’ beliefs that scientific achievement reflects ability rather than effort by exposing students to stories of how accomplished scientists struggled and overcame challenges in their scientific efforts.During the study, the students read one of three types of stories about Albert Einstein, Marie Curie and Michael Faraday. Intellectual struggle stories: stories about how scientists “struggledintellectually,” such as making mistakes while tackling a scientific problem and learning from them. Life struggle stories: stories about how scientists struggled in their personal lives, such as not giving up in the face of poverty or lack of family support. Achievement stories: stories about how scientists made great discoveries, without any discussion of coexisting challenges.Researchers found that students who heard either type of “struggle stories” improved their science performance post-intervention, relative to students in the control group. The effect was especially pronounced for lower performing students, for whom exposure to struggling stories led to significantly better science-class performance than low-performing students who read achievement stories. In addition, students who read struggle stories reported feeling more personally connected to the scientists. By identifying a scientist’s struggles and introducing the growth mindset he or she applied to accomplish great works, the students were able to empathize(共情)with the scientists during their own struggles.8.Why do students fail to imagine themselves as scientists?A.They lack interest in science.B.They don’t possess inborn talent,C.They are short of confidence.D.They have no ability to study science 9.What’s the purpose of the intervention?A.To introduce some inspirational stories to students.B.To expose students to scientists’ great achievements.C.To ensure students will become scientists in the future.D.To clear students’ misunderstandings of scientific work.10.The underlined word “pronounced” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.A.delicate B.permanent C.doubtful D.apparent 11.What can we learn from the research?A.Science ability has nothing to do with efforts.B.Students are more motivated by achievement stories.C.Scientists’ struggle stories can influence readers’ beliefs.D.Low-performing students tend to feel connected to scientists.People with high levels of niacin, also known as vitamin B3, in their blood may be more likely to have a heart attack or stroke than those with lower levels. Excessive amounts of thevitamin, which is routinely added to fortified food and can be taken as a supplement, may inflame blood vessels.Heart attacks and stroke are leading causes of death worldwide. While researchers have made significant strides over the past few decades in discovering the risk factors for these conditions, they haven’t identified them all.In an effort to fill these gaps, Stanley Hazen at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio and his colleagues collected blood samples from 2331 adults in the US and 832 adults in Europe who had elected to undergo cardiovascular screenings. The team analysed the samples for substances called metabolites, byproducts of metabolic processes such as digestion. The researchers then tracked incidents of cardiac events, such as heart attacks and strokes, among the participants over three years.They found that people with elevated levels of a metabolite called 4PY, which only arises when the body breaks down excess niacin, were around 60 percent more likely, on average, to experience such an event than those with lower levels. And it was found in further experiment that 4PY causes blood vessel inflammation, a major contributor to the development of heart disease, in rodents.It isn’t uncommon for people to have high niacin levels, Hazen says. This is partially due to certain foods, such as cereals and flours, being routinely fortified with the vitamin in countries that include the UK and the US. Niacin supplements are also increasingly popular as evidence suggests they have anti-ageing benefits, says Hazen. Plus, it wasn’t until recently that doctors stopped prescribing high-dose niacin to people at risk of cardiovascular disease, as it was initially thought the vitamin protected people from these conditions by lowering cholesterol.“I think this study really shows that sometimes, when it comes to vitamins, you can have too much of a good thing,” says Jenny Jia at Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois. However, this research was mainly conducted in people of European ancestry. It is therefore unclear if similar results would occur in people of different racial or ethnic backgrounds, says Jia. 12.What is presented in paragraph 3?A.Theoretical models.B.Research procedures.C.Practical examples.D.Historical findings.13.What does the underlined phrase “such an event” in paragraph 4 refer to?A.Increased 4PY.B.Extra niacin.C.Blood vessel inflammation.D.Cardiovascular diseases.14.What might not be the reason for people to have high niacin levels?A.Having niacin supplement is fashionable.B.Food with niacin can rapid aging.C.Certain vitamins are added to foods.D.Niacin was prescribed to people. 15.What attitude might Jia have to the study?A.Neutral.B.Supportive.C.Indifferent.D.Doubtful.MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear? 16 . It's similar to the music you listen to, but it's not exactly the same. That's because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called "elevator (电梯) music" because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name "Muzak". About one-third of the people in America listen to "Muzak" every day. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 17 .If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 18 .Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak doeswhat it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 19 . Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.20 . They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But other people enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm. One way or another, Muzak affects everyone. Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!A.Some people don't like Muzak.B.The music gives them extra energy.C.Music is playing in the background.D.Factory workers produce 13 percent more.E.Muzak tends to help people understand music better.F.They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.G.Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.二、完形填空When Susan was a high school student, her English teacher, Fred DiMeo, asked her to carry out a task: Recite (背诵) a poem in front of the whole class.“I had a mild stutter (口吃), which tried the 21 of my classmates,” Susan said. The thought of 22 in front of the class and stuttering through the 23 was too much to bear. When the day of the recitation came, Susan, painfully shy and 24 , recited the poem. Once she was done, DiMeo said something she’d never 25 before: that he liked listening to her voice. For the first time, she 26 that public speaking didn’t have to be a source of 27 . “I think in his mind he just wanted me to 28 I have nothing to be afraid of,” Susan said.Susan went on to graduate from high school and go to college. She never got to 29 thank DiMeo. Sometime after college, she managed to 30 a job as a trainer. The work made her know how big an 31 DiMeo had had on her confidence. “It’s so 32 to stand up in front of people and speak with them. And I do it all the time,” she said.Susan recently found a way to 33 her teacher, and sent him a letter expressing her 34 . “ You played a big role in my life,” she wrote. “I don't know where I would’ve gone if I felt like I had to keep my voice 35 because I was afraid of embarrassing (使尴尬) myself. ”21.A.ability B.patience C.knowledge D.pleasure 22.A.getting up B.falling over C.setting off D.crying out 23.A.notice B.poem C.speech D.room 24.A.brave B.relaxed C.nervous D.sleepy25.A.repeated B.changed C.heard D.seen 26.A.forgot B.imagined C.wrote D.realized 27.A.time B.fear C.luck D.risk 28.A.explain B.require C.understand D.warn 29.A.hurriedly B.easily C.properly D.secretly 30.A.miss B.save C.share D.find 31.A.influence B.offer C.agreement D.order 32.A.awful B.fair C.early D.nice 33.A.help B.contact C.follow D.protect 34.A.questions B.works C.hobbies D.thanks 35.A.quiet B.busy C.loud D.soft三、语法填空阅读下面的短文,在标有序号的空白处填入一个适当的词,或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。

It affects(影响) everyone--- rich or poor, young or old in every part of the world. Maybe that is 36 there are so many expressions about the weather, especially about 37 .Sometimes, when you 38 rain, you do not get any. Other times, you get rain when you don’t need it. 39 a baseball game for example. A sudden rainstorm can stop an exciting game, forcing the players and the 20,000 persons watching the game to run for 40 .If the game cannot continue, people who bought the tickets are given “rain checks”. These are 41 tickets that will let them see a 42 game for free.“Rain Check” now means a second chance at something. Often, a rain check has 43 to do with rain.Stores may offer “rain checks” when they sell out all of a product--- a television set, for example, 44 a special low price. 45 all the TV sets are gone, the store gives rain checks to those who wanted to buy one. The rain check allows a person to buy the TV set later at the 46 low price after the store receives some 47 from the factory.“Rain Check” is also used in social situations. It’s a way of 48 an invitation, but for a later time.You may ask for a “Rain Check” if you are invited to a friend’s house for dinner, but can’t be there. You say, “I would love to 49 you for dinner, but I’m busy. Could I have a rain check?” You are asking, in other 50 , if you could join your friend for dinner at another time.36.A. what B. where C. why D. when37.A. weather B. cloud C. sky D. rain38.A. need B. control C. get D. like39.A.

Medicine was being kept ready at a nearby hospital.Star sapphires and other valuable jewels worth a total of one million dollars are on show behind glass. Hundreds of visitors came to see the special blue star sapphire and were surprised when they saw the sixty-centimeter long brown guards.ing snakes at exhibitions of valuable objects is _______.A. quite normalB. never allowedC. often necessaryD. usually forbidden52.Why were the snakes and jewels at the same exhibition?A. They were both special things from Indian.B. The snakes were there to keep the jewels safe.C. The organizers wanted to do something unusual.D. People liked to visit an exhibition guarded by snakes.53.Many visitors came to the exhibition because______________.A. the snakes were on showB. so many jewels were on showC. exhibition officials said it was specialD. they were interested in seeing a famous jewelBSnowflakes(雪花) seem like white stars falling from the sky. But they don’t always look white. Sometimes they appear to have other colors. Some are red, yellow, or black. There have been snowflakes of almost every shape. Think how it would seem to have these coming all around you. Wouldn’t they look pretty?Black snow came down in France one year. Another year gray snow fell in Japan. It was found that such snow was mixed with ashes. This made it seem dark. Red snow has come down in other countries. When this happened, it was mixed with red dust. That is why it looked different. Most snow looks white, but it is really the color of ice. It is ice that comes from snow clouds. Each snowflake begins with a small drop of water. More water forms around this drop. The way the water freezes gives the snowflake its shape.No two snowflakes are of the same size or shape. All start out flat and have six sides. Some snowflakes are broken when they hit the ground. Others melt(融化) as they fall. When air is cold and dry, the falling snowflakes are small and hard. If the air is wet and warm, the snowflakes are big and soft.Would you be surprised to see snowflakes as big as your head falling from the sky? It happened once in our country. It could occur again.54.According to the passage, if the snowflakes are hard and small, the weather should be .A. cold and wetB. cold and dryC. wet and warmD. dry and warm55.We can infer from the last paragraph that very large snowflakes .A. occur regularlyB. never occurred beforeC. occur once a yearD. don’t often occur56.Which of the following statements is true?A. Color snowflakes look so because they are mixed with dust of different colors.B. All snowflakes look white, and it is the color of ice.C. Probably there are two snowflakes of the same size and shape.D. Most snowflakes are made from water and dust.CFolk medicine keeps the body healthy by using medicines taken from surrounding plants and herbs. Since materials(原料) for making a medicine to cure a sickness can be found everywhere, one can practise folk medicine in any place of the world.The use of folk medicine goes all the way back to the time of the earliest man when both man and animal used plants and herbs to keep healthy. It is usually seen that an animal eat snakeroot after being bitten by a poisonous snake. Because animals seem to have this natural ability for knowing which plants and herbs will cure what sickness, man probably learned how to care for himself by animal watching.Man also learned other things from animals. He observed that wild animals, when sick, kept quiet and rest, getting well with the help of the medicine in plants and pure air. He saw that an animal with a fever could often be found resting in a cool place, eating nothing, and often drinking water until the fever was gone.Some believe that folk medicine deals with a lot of ol d wives’ tales which have something to do with the medical treatment of the body. Stories are told about the powers of a certain vegetable material, which when hung around the neck, brings the wearer good health during the cold winter months. Such a story is simply a fairy tale. It should be separated from the discussion of folk medicine.57.Which of the following statements is TRUE about folk medicine?A. It is better than other medicines in curing serious diseases.B. It can treat most kinds of diseases for both man and animals.C. It keeps one healthy by using medicines taken from plants and herbs.D. It was a way of body treatment used only in man’s early history.58.Sick animals were often seen _____.A. being quiet and making little movementB. lying on the ground making strange noiseC. resting in a secret place to avoid enemiesD. drinking more water than other animals59.The underlined phrase “old wives’ tales” refers to _____.A. old ladies’ special use of folk medicineB. old medical treatment of the bodyC. those unscientific stories and talesD. stories about certain plants60.This passage is mainly about ______.A. animals’ natural power to cure diseasesB. a discussion of folk medicineC. how the earliest man kept healthyD. what man has learned from animals第二节任务型阅读(共5小题,每题2分,共10分)根据61—65题中不同读者的情况简介,再根据A—F中一些文学作品的简介,为每位读者选出适合他们需要的文学作品。
