高一上学期新生入学摸底考试英语试题 (2)
黑龙江省哈尔滨市第三中学校2020-2021学年高一上学期新生入学摸底考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.A VOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost ￡169.15 at . A week later, the same room cost ￡118.15.If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you're looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as , which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.STAY AWAY FROM THE STA TION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.Don't be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge's Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was ￡95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was ￡75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just ￡62.95.LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self－catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings. A great example is the historic O'Neill Flat on Edinburgh's Royal Mile, available for ￡420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.GET ON A BIKE London's “Boris bikes” have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around ￡1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or ￡5 per day)．1．The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may ________．A．help travelers pass timeB．cause travelers to pay more for accommodationC．allow travelers to make flexible plansD．attract lots of travelers to the UK2．“Farringdon” in Paragraph 5 is most probably ________．A．an ideal holiday destinationB．the tube line to Covent GardenC．a hotel far away from the train stationD．the name of a travel agency3．The passage shows that the O'Neill Flat ________．A．provides cooking facilities for touristsB．is located in central LondonC．lies on the ground floorD．costs over ￡100 on average per day in late September4．Cardiff's program allows a free bike for a maximum period of ________．A．two hoursB．one hourC．one hour and a halfD．half an hour5．The main purpose of the passage is ________．A．to tell visitors how to book in advanceB．to offer visitors some money－saving tipsC．to show visitors the importance of self－helpD．to supply visitors with hotel informationSeveral years ago, Jim Turner heard a program on the radio for the N.C．Children’s Hospital and decided he could use his love of origami art to help the hospital raise money for much-needed programs.So at the age of 13, Turner began making origami greeting cards and selling them to help the hospital. His program, known as Heartbeats for Kids, has since raised more than $2,500 for the hospital. “The first cards I made had a heart in them and you could remove the hea rt from the card and make it beat,” Turner says, explaining how he came up with the name for theprogram. Now as a 17-year-old high school student, Turner has less time to devote tocard-making, because origami costs a lot of labor and each card can take up to 30 minutes to design. But Turner still enjoys origami art and has created designs that have been chosen for exhibits that tour the country and world.Turner is an engineer and artist. His mother, Peggy Turner, says folding origami has helped her son develop his sense of space for 3-D objects. Turner also provides community service at school and at his church. He was named the Good Spirit of Community Awards for his community service activities, including the Heartbeats for Kids program. In the process of his volunteer efforts, Turner also managed to be one of the only 381 youths in the country to cam the top score of 2,400 on his SAT test.Making and selling the greeting cards has taught Turner about managing a small business, but most important thing Turner learns is that the cards benefit not only the hospital, but also the people who buy the cards or get the cards.

When my friendMaxie says “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well. “Have a nice day. Next!” This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone(腔调)with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me.Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don’t know what to say. “Oh, you just had a tooth out? I’m terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don’t know has tried to be nice to you.Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it’s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don’t care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like. 11．How does the author understand Maxie’s words?A．Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.B．Maxie really wishes the author a good day.C．Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.D．Maxie really worries about the author’s security.12．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?A．The salesgirl is rude.B．The salesgirl is bored.C．The salesgirl cares about me.D．The salesgirl says the words as a routine.13．By saying “Have a nice day,” a stranger may .A．try to be polite to you B．express respect to youC．give his blessing to you D．share his pleasure with you 14．According to the last paragraph, people say “Have a nice day” .A．sincerely B．as thanksC．as a habit D．encouragingly15．What is the best title of the passage?A．Have a Nice Day — a Social CustomB．Have a Nice Day — a Pleasant GestureC．Have a Nice Day — a Heart-warming GreetingD．Have a Nice Day — a Polite Ending of a ConversationSocieties all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference (参考) by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Often it happens that a place has two names：One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits died hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries---in both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were at first from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named after former British military bases (军事基地). If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus--- obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel (人员).Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example, “Base Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay (马来语). Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their sha pes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent (月牙) because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.16．We learn from Paragraph 1 that ________.A．many places tend to have more than one nameB．the government is usually the first to name a placeC．a ceremony will be held when a place is namedD．people prefer the place names given by the government17．What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
