So what do you expect him to say? He’ 11 probably say, “Fine, I’m all right,” but you have put a bug in his ear—maybe now he’s not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have s een something in his face, or his walk that he overlooked that morning. It starts worrying him a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, “How do you feel?”Every question has its time and pla ce. It’s perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask “How do you feel?” if you’re visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to make a train, or sitting at his desk workin g, it’s no time to ask him that sill y question.When George Bernard Shaw, the famous writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him “How do you feel?” Shaw put him in his place. “When you reach my age,” he said, “either you feel all right or you’re dead.”25. The question “How do you feel?” seems to be correct and suitable when asked by .A. a man working at his deskB. a friend who is illC. a person having lost a close friendD. a stranger who looks somewhat worried26. George Bernard Shaw’s reply in the passage show s his .A. cheerfulnessB. clevernessC. abilityD. politeness27. The underlined ‘You’ve put a bug in his ear’ in the 1st paragraph means that you’ve .A. made him laughB. shown concern for himC. given him some kind of warningD. made fun of himCMany years ago I worked in a psychiatric (精神病学的) hospital. I spent a great deal of time with a gentleman who had been in this hospital for many years. He never had any visitors at all—no family or friends to visit him. He never spoke, or seemed to understand anything that was said to him, nor would he react in any way to a question asked. In this person’s history, it appeared that he had a very important career where his intelligence made him a very successful man. Unfortunately, his career was cut short and he ended up needing complete care.One morning, I was attending to his needs all the while talking to him about what was happening in the local community. You see, I believe that real conversations are more important than no conversation at all and that it is more important to treat everyone with respect. I was busy dressing him after his bath, putting his clothes on, and then helping him to a chair when, totally unexpectedly, he turned to me and joined in a spirited, knowledgeable and focused discussion on a specific local event that I had been talking to him a few seconds before. This lively discussion lasted for no more than thirty seconds and then he suddenly stopped, looked straight ahead and no longer spoke. Despite my efforts to make the discussion continue, he just sat and looked straight ahead.It was amazing. When he started to speak to me, I thought that I had made a breakthrough that would allow him to leave the hospital for good. Now I think maybe it was a little wonder. Isuppose his speech might result from his neurons (神经元) connecting again for a short moment.Maybe his speaking was just a little “thank you” for the little kindness I gave him. Maybe life is supposed to be like that—a little giving means a lot to others.28. What can we know about the gentleman from Paragraph 1?A. His illness was connected with his career.B. He could do nothing but react to a question.C. His success might have a lot to do with his intelligence.D. He got ill because no family or friends visited him.29. What kind of people is the author?A. Caring and kind.B. Curious and generous.C. Calm and honest.D. Courageous and brave.30. Why did the author speak to the gentleman that morning?A. To expect a wonder to happen.B. To show respect for him.C. To make a conversation with him.D. To make him know what happened.31. What may be the best title for this passage?A. Kindness may work wonders.B. The importance of giving.C. Helping others is helping ourselves.D. A story in the hospital.DWhat should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boywho is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career.A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to do well at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. Knowledge of history is not required for most just but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metal work or cookery (烹饪术) and look for a job where you can improve these skills.If you have had a part - time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part -time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle (运用) tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures.It is better to face ally weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognise that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.32. According to the passage, the author encourage us to .A. realise the importance of doing well at school.B. take up part - time jobs as much as possible during the summer vacationC. be good at all subjects.D. use school performance to help to choose a career.33. We can learn from the third paragraph that as a student, having a part - time job .A. is useful for his future workB. is helpless to find out his weak pointsC. is a good way to earn extra moneyD. is a must to experience various jobs34. The word “it” in the last paragraph refers to .A. your backgroundB. your school recordC. your weak pointsD. your part - time job35. If a student’s school record is not good, he .A. must regret not having worked harder at school.B. will be a complete failure in his future work sooner or later.C. may do well in his future work if he chooses a career according to what he is skilled in.D. will receive further education after graduation.第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
高一英语下学期期中试题(5)
阜蒙县第二高中2017~2018学年度第二学期高一期中考试英语试卷时间：100分钟分数：120分第一部分：阅读理解（共两节；第一节：共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）AOn the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle(迷宫) that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be?I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.Since then, I've been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some outofclass activities because you'll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn't straight A's.Most important of all, be who you are, whether you're a “fool”， an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.1. The main reason for the author's fear on his first day is that ________.A．he was not familiar with the new surroundingsB．his schoolmates were unfriendly to himC．he was unable to work out the puzzleD．his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry2. From the author's first day experience we can infer that ________.A．he didn't know the right way to classB．he got to school before classes beganC．he was fond of the school immediately.D．his home was far from the school3. After his first week at school, the author ________.A．was still not accustomed to the scheduleB．gradually adjusted himself to the new schoolC．found high school not so challenging as he had imaginedD．ran for monitor of his class against three other students4. According to the passage, the secret of the author's success lies mainly in________.A．making more friends B．getting more A's at schoolC．being who he really is D．joining in out of class activitiesBEvery day we go to school and listen to teachers, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends --- you are in a situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease in ordinary conversation but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.5. When you speak to the class, you should speak __________.A．as loudly as possible B．loudly C．in a lowvoice D．forcefully6. The situation in the class is _________ that in your house.A．not very different from B．not the same asC．the same as D．sometimes the same as7. The main idea of this passage is __________.A．that we should talk in different ways in different situationsB．that we must speak loudlyC．that we must keep silent at any time D．that we must talk with the classCLong bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”Drink Good Wet Root Beer.”Fill up with Pacific Gas.”Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless （鲁莽的） or daring, the ride can be as thrilling （惊心动魄的） as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap,with your hands on the armrests even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.8. According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A. Advertisements on the billboards.B. Films on television.C. Buses on the road.D. Gas stations.9. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To give the writer’s opinion about long bus trips.B. To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C. To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D. To describe the billboards along the road.10. The writer of this passage would probably favor .A. bus drivers who aren’t recklessB. driving aloneC. a television set on the busD. no billboards along the road11. The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because .A. the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB. they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in betweenC. the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD. both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.12. The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are.A. comfortableB. excitingC. tiringD. boringDTokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time.In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to go. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that, it is different when one wants to walk.At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London's Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when the night-clubs are closing and every-body wants to go home. There are 35,000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty(空的).During the day, most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time.In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.13. Tokyo is different from London in that ______.A. it has a larger populationB. there are more traffic jamsC. night clubs are sometimes emptyD. it is more difficult to go somewhere on foot14. Fires break out___________ in Tokyo according to the writer.A. not very oftenB. only several times a dayC. quite oftenD. very seldom15. Japanese trains ______A. often leave and arrive on timeB. are often crowdedC. are the main means people use to travel to and from workD. all of the above第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Everyone wants to achieve happiness and smile．16 How can you find real happiness and smile? By getting rich? In case you are scratching your head，looking for some reasons or ideas to be happy, here are a few．Throw an impromptu(即兴的) party. 17 An impromptu one increases the joy to a new level. And of course making other people happy is bound to have the same effect on you.Treat yourself. Sometimes all it takes to make one happy is a little ind ulgence(放纵). So, go ahead and grab a cup of coffee and sit inside a blanket with a good book! You will be surprised at how happy it makes you．18 Happiness can be transformed! When we feel happy and excited, it can lift the spirits of others. Your simple gesture can transform a person’s day and get him or her prepared to take on any challenge.Have a conversation with a parent. If you are like most kids, you possibly spend more time texting or surfing the Internet than talking to your family. 19 You will be surprised at the feeling of joy that it brings to you.Finally, don’t forget to be happy every day! While International Day of Happiness may come about only once a year, happiness is around you all day and night. 20A. You just have to seek it out and grab it．B. But life is hard，so it is very difficult to find real happiness and smile．C. Most of your family members show no interest in texting or the Internet．D. Set aside your mobile phone for a few minutes and have a chat with a family member.E. Be friendly to others and smile at a stranger．F. Nothing makes people happier than being invited to a party.G. You should try to celebrate the Day of Happiness every day and everywhere．第二部分英语知识运用第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）“Mum, can I invite my classmate Brett over to stay tomorrow night, please?

Since Ms. Runkle used to be a journalist back in the United States, she has introduced many helpful journalistic writing skills to me.Although she is my teacher, Ms. Runkle and I are more like friends. She often invites my classmates and me to take part in different activities outside of school. For example, I went to listen to a journalist's speech, which helped me better understand current events (时事).Not only does Ms. Runkle talk with me outside of school, she is also a great teacher in the classroom. English Language and Composition is a really hard subject for a second language learner. We felt worried in the beginning, but Ms. Runkle really makes an effort to help us out. In class, Ms. Runkle always encourages students to question everything to keep us active. One part of class I love the most is when groups of students are required to give speeches on events that are happening in the world.

Besides (除……之外，还有)"Shanzhai" electronic products, there are "Shanzhai" movies, "Shanzhai" stars and even a "Shanzhai" Spring Festival Gala, a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year's Eve."Shanzhai" has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous. In Chongqing, "Shanzhai" version "Bird's Nest（鸟巢）" and "Water Cube（水立方）" woven by farmers with bamboo attract(吸引) wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.A literature critic said that taking the "Shanzhai" Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the "Shanzhai" version appears timely to attract people. "Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, 'Shanzhai' culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds," he said.To the mainstream（主流） culture, the rise of "Shanzhai" culture is a challenge and a motivation（推动）. People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect way and it is for the public to choose.12．The Chinese word "Shanzhai" may have started with_______.A. fake(假的) cell-phonesB. electronic productsC. Spring Festival GalaD. Olympic buildings13．According to the passage, "Shanzhai" culture means_______.A. the action that a person imitates famous peopleB. products with poor techniques and qualityC. anything that are copies of something famousD. those similar names to famous brands14．We can infer that the mainstream culture_______.A. is held back by "Shanzhai" cultureB. is the challenge of"Shanzhai" cultureC. will be replaced by "Shanzhai" cultureD. may develop faster because of the challenge of "Shanzhai" culture15．The underlined word "imitates" is closest in meaning to_______.A. 偷窃B. 仿造C. 做广告D. 欺骗第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 3 分，满分 15 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

Now a research by Cornell University suggests ___32___ life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as ___33___ important part of their life style.

Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long ___35___ the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week.

Cloze（30’）ASooner or later, almost everyone who travels by air—from occasional passengers to ___61___ pilots—is affected by jet lag（时差）.

Reading Comprehension（30’）AThe big online bookseller Amazon recently announced that less than four years after introducing e-books to its catalog, it’s now selling more electronic versions of its book titles than printed ones. And this past April, Encyclopedia Britannica（不列颠百科全书），the world’s oldest and largest maker of encyclopedias announced it would no longer publish a print edition. Last week, the Pew Internet & American Life Project released a survey about the use of e-books in libraries. It found that 12 percent of Americans aged 16 and older who read e-books say they had borrowed at least one from a library within the past year.But the survey found that the broader public, including 58 percent of those who have library cards and 53 percent of people who own electronic book readers, are not aware that they can find and check out e-books from public libraries, even though three-quarters of the libraries offer that service. Pew Internet Project director Lee Rainie noted that e-book borrowing is becoming more popular at the same time that publishers-who are selling plenty of e-books and fewer hard-copy editions---are worried that free e-book check-outs at the library will hurt sales. In February, for instance, the big publisher Penguin Books stopped supplying new e-books and audio books to libraries. Penguin just reached an agreement to resume supplying one big library system in New York City, but not until six months after they are released. That way, those who want the latest books will have to buy them.So things are a little unclear in the library world when it comes to electronic books. More and more readers want them, but publishers are giving the libraries a hard time about offering them.Demand’s not the problem. Supply may soon be.91. What do 53 percent of e-book readers fail to find?A. Most libraries offer e-book service.B. They can borrow at least one free e-book.C. Borrowing e-books needs to deposit some money beforehand.D. They do not need another library card to borrow e-books.92. The publishers worry about the free e-book check-out at the library, for it will _____.A. change the reader’s shopping habitB. affect the e-book salesC. reduce the supply of audio booksD. hurt sales of hard-cover editions93. What will the publisher Penguin Books do according to its agreement with New York City?A. Resume supplying new e-books.B. Supply e-books half a year after their release.C. Offer discounted new e-books.D. Stop offering the original service.94. What does the author believe according to the passage?A. Books sales will go from bad to worse.B. The publishers will lose more money.C. The book demand and supply will return to normal.D. E-book supply can be a problem later on.95. If you are interested in underwater engineering, you will probably attend _____.A. Story ShowB. DIY Underwater Vehicle DesignC. Make your Own iPhone CaseD. Animal Kingdom for Young Ones96. Animal Kingdom for Young Ones is designed for ____.A. adultsB. children of all agesC. kids under 8 years oldD. children aged 12 and older97. What is the subject of the festival?A. SportsB. ScienceC. LiteratureD. EducationCHappiness can be described as a positive mood and a pleasant state of mind. According to recent polls, sixty to seventy percent of Americans consider themselves to be moderately happy and one in twenty persons feels very unhappy. Psychologists have been studying the factors that contribute to happiness. It is not predictable, nor is a person in an apparently ideal situation necessarily happy. The ideal situation may have little to do with his actual feelings.A good education and income are usually considered necessary for happiness. Though both may contribute, they are only chief factors if the person is seriously undereducated or actually suffering from lack of physical needs.The rich are not likely to be happier than the middle-income group or even those with very low incomes. People with college educations are somewhat happier than those who did not graduate from high school, and this is perhaps mainly because they have more opportunities to control their lives. Yet people with a high income and a college education may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education.Poor health does not rule out happiness except for the severely disabled or those in pain. Learning to cope with a health problem can contribute to happiness. Those who have good relationship with other family members are happier than those who live alone. Love has a higher correlation with happiness than any other factors.It should be noted that people quickly get used to what they have, and they are happiest when they feel they are increasing their level wherever where it stands at a given time.Children whose parents were happily married have happier childhoods, but are not necessarily happier adults.The best formula (准则) for happiness is to be able to develop AQ (Adversity Quotient that can be of great benefit when running into trouble), to have a personal involvement andcommitment, and to develop self-confidence and self-esteem.98.
