ATOASTMASTERSToastmasters is an international organization, designed to develop effective speaking and listening skills. It was set up in 1924 by Ralph Smedley and it’s headquartered in California. It has a double purpose: the personal growth and strong effective communication skills.Who is Toastmasters open to?Many people think Toastmasters is open only to those who wish to be professional speakers, but that is not true. Toastmasters is open to the public at large. Any person who wishes to improve his public speaking is welcome. And also, those who just want to increase their overall self-confidence are encouraged to attend.How can Toastmasters help you?Joining Toastmasters, a person will learn different methods of communicating what he really wants to say, and equally important, he will learn what the audience expects so he can send that message to them in an organized way. Some people are comfortable around friends, but when they appear before a group they don’t know, they get nervous. The organizatio n helps its members to get calm and organize thoughts, and express them in an effective way.Most often, people assume that when one is listening, he is also paying attention. This is not always true. Many times people are waiting for their turn to speak and are not really listening at all. Toastmasters can develop a person overall in organizing their thoughts, getting information from others and receiving effective feedback(反馈).How does Toastmasters train people?Toastmasters has a way of learning by doing. The Toastmasters International Organization providesa menu called the basic menu because it gives a guideline for the development of speeches. These speeches can meet different purposes. For example, one might need voice training; another might be to organize his thoughts or develop use of humor in speeches. There is an eight-week program for young people and also an eight-week speech course offered for adults. As a person continues to give speeches and improve, he progresses from the point of being fearful to stand before a group to the point where he can speak to any group of people with confidence.1. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Toastmasters was set up in 1924 by Ralph Smedley.B. Toastmasters is a club only for professional speakers.C. Toastmasters was originally set up to train speaking skills.D. Toastmasters is a local organization headquarter in California.2. Why in many cases people aren’t really listening at all?A. Because they are too nervous.B. Because they are organizing their thoughts.C. Because they are not interested in the talking.D. Because they are waiting for their turn to speak.3. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To offer some tips on giving speeches.B. To call on people to join Toastmasters.C. To give a general introduction to Toastmasters.D. To show the benefits of effective speaking skills.【答案】1. A 2. D 3. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了演讲协会Toastmasters的宗旨、适用人群、培训内容以及培训方法等信息。

Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to “do something a bit different”. They traversed (横穿) cities, deserts, mountains and everything in between across Europe, the Middle East and the East Asia. The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find shelter.Peter, 66, said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was “really exciting”. At the end of their journey, the special pair didn’t fly home but instead choose to book a cabin (舱) inside a 400m-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at Southampton.“You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you aregoing to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall, the experience is absolutely unbelievable, ” Peter said.Peter and Chris initially set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles and broke his leg. After seven months of recovery, the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018.Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entiretrip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink.

Fine particle pollution declined rapidly following the new rules on industrial emissions and the promotion of cleanfuels, according to the study, published on Monday in the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. The study, which focused on the period from 2013-2017, was conducted by a group of Chinese researchers and scientists.PM2.5, as this kind of pollution is known, is so small that it can enter the bloodstream, potentially leading to cancer, stroke and heart attack in the long term. After rapid industrialization and weak regulations left the country with a reputation for smog and bad air quality, Chinese authorities started to take air pollution seriously in 2008.In 2013, Beijing had PM2.5 concentrations 40 times higher than levels recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), and the governmentintroduced its toughest-ever clean air policies that year. The study found “signif icant declines” in PM2.5 levels across China from 2013-2017, with new standards for thermal power plants and industrial boilers, the replacement of old factories, and new emissions rules for vehicles. The authors say this “confirms the effectiveness of Chi na’s recent clean air actions.”These recent actions have seen Beijing fall out of the top 100 most-polluted cities in Asia in recent years, with the pollution levels 10% lower across Chinese cities between 2017 and 2018, according to a report by Greenpeace and AirVisual. Shanghai, the country’s largest city and financial capital, has also made environmental advances, such as adopting strict recycling regulations. Public pressure has been the driving force of pollution policy in China.Air pollution is a global issue, and India is now home to 22 of the 30 most polluted world cities, according to the Greenpeace and AirVisual report. In the US, a recent study said air pollutionwas linked to more than 107,000 deaths in 2011 and cost the country $866 billion.8. What saved many lives in China?A. China’s clean air policies.B. The increased particle pollution.C. The study by researchers.D. The reduction of the clean fuels.9. Why did PM2.5 cause many diseases?A. It was called smog.B. It made the air cleaner.C. It went into the blood.D. It had a bad reputation.10. When did Chinese government decide to treat the pollution?A. In 2008.B. In 2013.C. In 2017.D. In 2018.11. What did people in Shanghai do to protect the environment?A. They built the thermal power plants.B. They stopped using industrial boilers.C. They made Shanghai financial capital.D. They tried to recycle some rubbish.DIn the 1994 film Forrest Gump, there’s a famous saying, “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re gonna get.” The surprise is part of the fun. Now blind box toys are bringing the magic of surprise to online shopping.A blind box toy is hidden inside uniform packaging(包装) butinvisible from the outside. You don’t know what will be inside, although the toys typically come from pop culture, ranging from movies to comics and cartoons.Blind boxes have caught on since they were first introduced from Japan to China in 2014. According to a 2019 Tmall report, the mini-series of Labubu blind box. designed by Hong Kong -born Kasing Lung, was named Champion of Unit Sales with 55,000 sold in just 9 seconds during the Singles Day shopping event. Most customers for blind boxes are young people aged 18 to 35.According to The Paper, blind box toys are popular in part because of their cute appearances. The typically cute cartoon figurines (小塑像) come in miniature (微型的) sizes, making them suitable for display almost anywhere.Even if blind boxes are not their top choice for decorations(装饰品), the mystery and uncertainty of the process also attracts people. It’s the main reason why people buy blind boxes one after another.“Fear of the unknown is always a part of the box-opening process,” said Miss Cao, 24, who lives and works in Shenyang. Speaking to Sina News, she said: “Until you open all the boxes, you cannot know what it is inside.”Opening a blind box is a delightful little surprise for our mundane daily lives, something small but fun to wait for each day, week or month. When people open this simple little box, they may be disappointed, but the uncertainty is part of the fun. People will open more blind boxes and hope for a better outcome.When someone re-makes Forrest Gump, don't be surprised if he says, “Life is like a blind box.”12.What feature of blind boxes attracts people?A.They often get toys designed by famous artists.B.They don’t know what they’ve got until they open them.C.They can learn about pop culture from the packaging.D.They can experience the excitement of online shopping.13.Why does Miss Cao love blind box toys?。

江苏省泰州市兴化市2023-2024学年高一上学期1月期末英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解American children aren’t the only couch potatoes out there. Nearly one third of children in the world spend three hours a day or more watching TV or playing computers, according to a study of over 70,000 teens in 34 nations.From Argentina to Zambia, Regina Guthold of the World Health Organization in Geneva and her colleagues found that most children aren’t getting enough exercise. “In terms of physical activity levels, we did not find much of a difference between poor and rich countries,” Guthold told Reuters Health. “Growing up in a poor country does not necessarily mean that kids get more physical activity.”The study, published in The Journal of Pediatrics, looked at 72,845 schoolchildren aged 13 to 15 from Africa, North and South America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.The researchers defined enough physical activity as at least an hour of exercise outside of gym class at least five days a week. Children who spent three or more hours a day watching TV, playing computer games, or chatting with friends — aside from time in school or time spent doing homework — were considered as sedentary. The researchers found only one quarter of the boys and 15 percent of the girls were getting enough exercise by these definitions. A quarter of the boys and nearly 30 percent of the girls sat too much and didn’t get enough exercise.Children in Myanmar were the least sedentary, with 13 percent of boys and 8 percent of girls classified as sedentary.Girls were less active than boys in every country except for Zambia. Uruguay had the highest percentage of active boys, at 42 percent, while Zambia had the lowest, at 8 percent. Girls from India were the most active, with 37 percent meeting exercise definitions, while girls from Egypt were the least active, with just 4 percent getting enough exercise.While the study didn’t look at the reasons behind the lack of physical activity in various nations, Guthold guessed that urbanization (城市化) could be a factor as well as being able to use cars and TVs. She said schools can help children become more active by having physical education classes and educating students about the importance of exercise.1．What does the underlined word “sedentary” in paragraph 4 mean?A．Addicted.B．Flexible.C．Inactive.D．Unhealthy. 2．What can we know from the study?A．Boys from Uruguay were the most active.B．Most girls from India got enough exercise.C．Children in Europe get more physical activity.D．Boys are more active than girls in every country.3．How does the writer present the findings of the study?A．By using quotations and taking examples.B．By listing figures and making comparisons.C．By asking questions and providing answers.D．By presenting facts and drawing conclusions.4．Which of the following factors probably lead to children’s lack of physical activity?A．Computers and potatoes.B．Computers and urbanization.C．Urbanization and physical education.D．Physical education and homework.Just being intelligent (聪明的) doesn’t mean someone will be successful. And just because someone is less intelligent doesn’t mean that person will fail. That’s one take-home message from the work of people like Angela Duckworth, who works at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.Like many other scientists, Duckworth wondered what makes one person more successful than another. When digging deeper, Duckworth found that the people who performed best shared a quality independent of intelligence. They had what she now calls grit (毅力). Duckworth developed a set of questions to test it. She calls it her “grit scale (量表).”In one study of people 25 and older, she found that as people age, they become more likely to stick with a project. She also found that git increases with education. People who finished college scored higher on the grit scale than people who quit before graduation. People who went to graduate school after college scored even higher.She then did another study with college students. Duckworth wanted to see how intelligence and grit influenced performance in school. So she compared scores on college-entrance exams, which measure IQ, to school grades and scores on the grit scale. Students with higher grades tended to have more grit. That’s not surprising. Getting goodgrades takes both smarts and hard work.But some people counter that this grit means success. Among those people is Marcus Crede, a professor at Iowa State University in Ames. He recently pooled the results of 88studies on grit. Together, those studies tested nearly 67, 000 people. And grit did not predict success, Crede found.However, he thinks grit is very similar to someone’s ability to set goals, work toward them and think things through before acting.“Study habits and skills, test anxiety and class attendance are far more strongly connected to school grades than grit,” Crede says. “We can teach students how to study well. We can help them with their test anxiety,” he adds. “I’m not sure we can do that with grit.”5．What can we know from the first two paragraphs?A．Intelligence determines success.B．Not all smart people will succeed.C．Duckworth redesigned a grit scale.D．Grit decides how intelligent one might be.6．What might influence a person’s grit according to Angela Duckworth’s findings?A．Lifestyle.B．Family.C．Personality D．Education.A．Comment.B．Disagree.C．Recognize.D．Warn. 8．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Grit can hardly be taught.B．Grit can be improved eastlyC．Grit is strongly related to test anxiety.D．Grit has nothing to do with schoolgrades.With enough money, it’s possible to do something unbelievable in Dubai and now you can add another to the list — walking on the moon. Recently, Canadian architectural company Moon World Resorts announced plans to construct a $5 billion resort (度假村) that looks like the moon in Dubai.The project, named Moon Dubai, is meant to help visitors experience space tourism, which allows guests to find out what it is like to walk on the moon. The resort will be very luxurious and contemporary, with a lot of components inside that one would already know — for example, a wellness area, residential properties, restaurants, a convention center, and a spa, each with a lunar twist (月球扭). It will also include a training platform for space agenciesand astronauts.Space tourism currently comes with a big price tag, and it’s a barrier to entry for most travelers. However, the moon resort experience will be significantly cheaper. A walk on the lunar surface of the moon resort is much more affordable at $500.“Moon Dubai will significantly impact every aspect of the UAE’s economy, including tourism, transportation, commercial and residential real estate, infrastructure, financial services, aviation and space, energy, agriculture, technology and of course education,” says Michael R. Henderson, co-founder of Moon World Resorts. “It will be the largest and most successful modern-day tourism project in the MENA region, doubling annual tourism visitations to Dubai based on its global appeal, brand awareness and unique multiple integrated offerings.”Whether the project will eventually take off is currently unknown. If the design can be successful, it will require a 12-month pre-development planning program and a 48-month building process. But the company’s plan is viable (可行的). Moreover, Henderson estimated that the moon resort could open in 2027.9．What do we know about the moon resort?A．It is designed to send people to the moon.B．It is a cheaper option for space tourism.C．It serves as a platform for scientists to explore space.D．It provides visitors with space classes taught by astronauts.10．What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A．The features of the moon resort.B．The key role of tourism in Dubai.C．The potential value of Moon Dubai.D．The purpose of carrying out MoonDubai.11．What stage is the moon resort at?A．Test.B．Design.C．Operation.D．Construction. 12．What is the main purpose of this text?A．To introduce a tourism project in Dubai.B．To encourage people to visit the moon resort.C．To show the development of Dubai’s space industry.D．To present the commercial success of Moon World Resorts.They say once you learn to ride a bike, you never forget. Most of us learned to ride when we were kids, and many still wear our helmets, put our feet on the pedals, and shoot off for a ride on the streets. In recent times, cycling has seen an increase in popularity, so many people raise a question: 13First, let’s look at the health benefits. Cycling can improve your cardiovascular (心血管的) health and burn extra body fat. Strengthening your muscles in your legs helps increase your potential torque (扭矩) and cadence (节奏). 14 A long ride in the countryside could help you clear your mind, or de-stress. But it’s not only about your body and mind there are also some plus sides for your wallet’s health.Cycling can be a great way to go to work or get about town. 15 If you drive to work, sometimes finding somewhere to park can be a nightmare, whereas finding somewhere to chain your bike up can be much simpler. Then, on the subway, there are changes at stations and other people who go to work speaking loudly on their phones to deal with. 16 And if you’re worried about safety, there are designated cycle lanes in many major cities. In addition, wearing high-visibility clothing is another way to improve your safety when cycling on the roads.17 It can help you reduce your carbon footprints. Not giving off greenhouse gases into the atmosphere is better for the planet and your own environment.So, whether people want to cycle for their health, their wallet, the environment, or a combination of all of them —the popularity of cycling is on the rise.A．What makes cycling so convenient?B．But cyclists face neither of these issues.C．And people will choose to go to work by cycling.D．This can save you a lot of money on fuel or public transportation.E．Finally, cycling can also be good for the environment.F．And the benefits from cycling aren’t just physical, but mental as well.G．What makes it so attractive for people to take their bikes once again?二、完形填空Some of us regret that we no longer have parents to serve after their passing away (去世).A few days ago, when I went to a park for my evening walk, I came across an old couple sitting on a bench and talking to each other. Feeling a bit tired after a long way, I’m 19 to know about their 20 of discussion. So I went over and sat on the bench next to them. After a few moments, from their conversation I could 21 that their only son had moved to America. And they were 22 alone here.Every sentence they said to each other conveyed to me their desire, their loneliness and their selfless 23 for their son. My eyes were filled with tears and I realized just how 24 we have become as children.To achieve our goals and purposes we tend to care 25 about the two most important persons of our lives: our parents, who 26 us when we were young, raised us heart and soul and guided us patiently on each step of our lives.What has the life of these parents become now? Most of them are staying in old houses and leading a 27 life. Most of them even couldn’t be taken care of when they fall ill. Why do we always 28 that we are what we are now just because of these two special people who brought us into this 29 ?Finally, I would like to use a few words written by a wise man which say, “When you were 30 and just a little way off, I 31 you with blankets (毯子) against the cool night air, but now you are tall and out of 32 , I hold out my hands and cover you with my best wishes.”18．A．asleep B．alone C．awake D．alive 19．A．scared B．curious C．excited D．afraid 20．A．place B．time C．goal D．topic 21．A．remember B．feel C．learn D．explain 22．A．gained B．left C．reminded D．limited 23．A．hope B．praise C．friendship D．love 24．A．independent B．responsible C．selfish D．obvious 25．A．little B．much C．greatly D．more 26．A．missed B．denied C．promised D．protected 27．A．practical B．modern C．peaceful D．lonely 28．A．suggest B．believe C．forget D．hear 29．A．world B．organization C．team D．class 30．A．honest B．old C．small D．brave31．A．filled B．covered C．supported D．compared 32．A．work B．date C．order D．reach三、单词拼写示单词拼写)34．（改编）from a novel, the film is popular with teenagers. （根据汉语提示单词拼写）35．Eventually, your child will leave home to live their own life as a fully (独立)adult.

2023-2024学年江苏省泰州市高一上学期1月期末英语试题
2023-2024学年江苏省泰州市高一上学期1月期末英语试题The day a freshman moves into Harvard Yard is always said to be an enjoyable one and this was certainly true of my first day at the university: As my parents and I drove into the Yard, I looked at the wonderful scene and thought to myself “No freshman should be so lucky”!I’m sharing a flat with four other girls. We are all completely different in terms of background, beliefs, and interests —we reflect the diversity (多样性) that Harvard is so proud of During this first week, it’s a comfort to have four girls I can call friends and that can help me deal with the new situation which is quite difficult at times.Deciding what classes to take is the first step. At Harvard, the only necessary class for freshmen is a writing class —I’m actually able to take any classes I desire this year and the range of classes is amazing! How do I decide? Thankfully, Harvard allows freshmen to try classes during the “Shopping Week”. Classes meet at their regular times, and we’re able to attend as many (or as few) as we want. If I finally decide to take a course, I’ll be held responsible for any work done during the “Shopping Week” . On the other hand, if I find a class doesn’t suit me or the professor is boring, I can decide not to take it!All of these first-week experiences will make great life-time memories but the greatest treasure Harvard has offered me thus far has been the other students I’ve met. Every time I see someone either singing a moving song al an A Capella Concert, giving an amazing violin performance at a talent show, or saying something extremely inspiring in one of my classes, I’m blown away! Knowing and interacting with so many gifted people is what has made my first week at Harvard a truly priceless experience. One week down, four more years to go —I can’t wait!1.

According to Statista, a research company, India had 19.4 million pet dogs in 2018 and may now have 31m. In 2021, Market Decipher, anoth er research organization, valued India’s pet industry at 890’hillion dollars and said that it would continue to grow by 3 times over the next 10 years.Actually, the pet industry is growing at a fast rate throughout the world. With rising incomes comes increased pet-ownership, especially among young professionals who tend 10 put off marriage and parenthood and to be extremely willing to enjoy the company of a dog. It is only a matter of time before marriage websites include a ”pet-friendly“ option.As kee ping pets becomes increasingly popular, so do those working in the industry. “Being in this trade was despised just five years ago,” says Chinmay, a 30-ycar-old dog trainer in Thane, Mumbai. “How will you find a girlfriend?” he recalls his relatives asking him. But dog trainers in Mumbai can these days cam 2, 400 rupees (S30) an hour —more than twice as much as piano teachers. Chinmay is now happily married to one of his customers.Current pet-industry players are prepared and new ones stepping in.

An apple. Hot Ica. When you’re sick, everyone from grandma to the next-door neighbor has a helpful suggestion for food that will put you on the road to recovery. What should we make of this wisdom — do some foods really help us feel better, or even actually get better? And if so, why do we hardly feel hungry during illness when we might think nutrition is needed most?Yale University immunobiologist Ruslan Medzhitov believes our bodies are working not for making us feel better, but for being alive — and they might not always treat an illness as their greatest risk. Before take-away service was an option, getting food while sick meant putting a weakened body at risk. And finding food also meant losing more energy. Though life has changed, scientists assume these evolutionary holdovers (进化遗存) may still play a role.That’s a challenge, because your body needs a healthy balanced diet when sick. It requires a specific range of nutrition — protein, fat, vitamins, and more — although Medzhitov says those preferences are a moving target. “The way it changes during illness depends on the type of illness, and that’s the part we don’t know well.” he says. Still by adding protein, fat, a fruit or vegetable, you can maintain a good balance of nutrition. That may be where the original idea of chicken soup came.There’s no one definite answer as to what to eat during illness. Medzhitov believes that just liste ning to your body and its preferences is likely the best option. What you desire is more often than not what your body wants. When sick, your desire for one type of food and dislike for another don’t come by accident. Millions of years of evolutionary selection have taught your body to recognize them. “If your body needs vitamin C, you will have desire for something that contains it, even though sometimes we don’t know what that desire is for.”9. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．To give an example. B．To show a discovery.C．To make a suggestion. D．To offer an explanation.10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A．Nutritional needs change with illness.B．People know little about types of illness.C．Maintaining a balanced diet is a challenge.D．Chicken soup offers well-rounded nutrition.11. What does Medzhitov suggest during illness?A．Taking in vitamin C. B．Eating what appeals to you.C．Drinking chicken soup. D．Minding the body’s change.12. In which section of a website may this text appear?A．Nature. B．Culture. C．Education. D．Science. Homework stress can be harmful, making students anxious, tired, and building negative feelings towards the whole experience of studying, If you are troubled, read on for some tips on stress management, and find a solution that suits you.● 13Good time management may not solve all of your problems, but it can go a long way when you are dealing with stress from homework. Most homework stress starts from failing to finish homework in time. Recording the time spent on individual tasks, as well as planning carefully, may help reduce your stress.●Use a clean workspace.Before you begin working on your homework, ensure there is not anything that leads to poor concentration in your work space. 14 In addition, it is proven that too loud noise, too many colors, and messy space can cause more stress, and therefore clearing up the table may help you concentrate.●Ask for help.15 Sometimes stress is caused by the fact that the task is too difficult for you to understand. Getting some external aid may help you better understand the topic and further your ability to complete the project.●Have a timely restDon’t forget to rest when you start to feel burnt out. 16 And it is important to deal with it when it comes up. Great ways of resting include taking a short sleep, going on a walk, dancing, cooking a nice and nutritious meal, exercising, and spending some time on a hobby.These are just some of the many ways of how you can deal with homework stress. The fact is that for some of you, stress may still be part of the study. 17 If you can manage it, you may find your work less stressful.In a small busy cafe —people were dining, chatting and laughing —a lady just finished up her lunch, with some food left behind.
