AMy mother loves flowers. As soon as warm weather comes around, you will find her planting, watering and weeding over everything. For many years we lived next door to each other, and she spent as much time in my garden as she did her own. After the flowers became plentiful each summer, she would cut colorful bouquets(花束)to enjoy inside the house—both hers and mine. I would often come home from work and find a beautiful arrangement(布置) of fresh flowers on my coffee table.Shortly before Christmas one year, a local flower shop offered a bouquet-a-month special. It seemed to be a great way to thank her for all of the flowers she had given me through the years.After the holidays, in early January, I drove her to the flower shop to pick up her first month's bouquet. the small fresh colorful bouquet would hardly fill a small vase.I was so embarrassed(尴尬的).However, after we returned home, she began to arrange the flowers she had received. “Mom, I'm sorry, ”I told her.“I can't believe how skimpy that bouquet is.”She looked at me and smiled.“It’s okay,”she said “It allows me to better enjoy the beauty of each one.”Mom's words helped me to realize something bigger and more important—when we have too many good things, we often fail to enjoy the beauty of each one.Thanks, Mom, for helping me understand that less is sometimes more.1.According to paragraph 1, which of the following is TRUE?A. The author's mother put fresh flowers on the author's coffee table.B. The author used to buy some fresh flowers on her way home.C. The author's mother usually bought flowers for her daughter.D. The author and her mother shared a beautiful garden.2.The underlined word “skimpy” in Paragraph 4 means_______.A. beautifulB. colorfulC. cheapD. small 3.What did the author learn from her mother?A. How to grow flowers.B. How to arrange flowers.C. Enjoying life if possible.D. Considering things in other ways.BJason had been watching the X Games on TV. Athletes from all over the world were competing in the m ost amazing sports. Just then his grandmother walked into the room. “I want to be extreme. Would you really let me do that? You always worry about my safety!” said Jason.“You will have to follow some rules,” said his grandmother. “You can only ride in the park — never on the streets. You have to promise to wear a helmet (头盔). If you hurt yourself too much, I have the right to take your skateboard away. Is it a deal?”“You bet!” Jason was so excited that he jumped off the sofa. A week later he had a board and a helmet.On Saturday, his grandmother dropped him off near the park. He was happy to have a grandmother who let him try new things.Kids in the park were moving quickly up and down the ramps (坡道). They flew into the air and landed as easily as birds. When he watched the X games, Jason felt like he was doing the tricks himself. But watching these kids up close, he knew that none of it was going to be easy. He felt a little bit scared.Very slowly he carried his board to the ramp. Taking a deep breath, he put his right foot on the board. He kicked off with his left foot. For a few seconds he glided (滑行) along, just waiting to fall. Then he came to a stop. Kicking off again, he waited for the worst to happen. Again, he stayed up. The third time he kicked, lost his balance, and fell hard on his left knee.It hurt, but it was no big deal! Why had he been so scared? Now he felt calm becausethings had gone wrong, and he was fine!Next time he kicked off harder and went fast and farther. “Excellent!” said a gir l as she passed him. “Extreme!” laughed Jason to himself. “Not quite.”4. Jason’s grandmother agreed to let him try skateboarding unless _____.A. he finished his homeworkB. he liked the sportC. he observed some rulesD. he won a bet5.

The girl praised Jason for his _____.A. skillB. honestyC. courageD. kindnessCI’m trying to be a writer, but I can’t even start. What should I do?Abraham, NebraskaThere are many ways to come up with ideas, one of which is to write down a list of your experiences, as well as things from your imagination. When you want to write, look in the notebook for ideas.Books for writers often have good suggestions, too. One we like is Spilling Ink: A Yong Writer’s Handbook by Anne Mazer and Ellen Potter. Perhaps your library has it.My classmates keep asking about a new movie I’ve seen. But I don’t want to spoil it for them. What should I do?Corinne (by e-mail)You could ask your classmates whether they are sure they want to know and if they insist, go ahead and tell them. You may be able to give them a general idea of the movie without revealing details of the ending.I’m going to a soccer camp for youth, but I’m not sure if I’m good at soccer or if I’ll make friends.Louise, New HampshireSoccer camp is for people who share an interest in the sport. No matter what a person’s ability is at the beginning, it’s likely that everyone w ill leave camp with improved skills. Sharing a common interest may make conversations easier. Smile, be friendly, and have a sense of humor. Before long, you may find that you’ve made some good friends.Someone invited me to a birthday party. When I got there, kids were doing stuff I’m not interested in, like watching scary movies. I told them my mom would pick me up, so I just left. Was I rude for doing that?Sam (by e-mail)You just did the right thing and that isn’t being rude.We hope yo u’ll talk with your parents about this. They’re probably proud of what you did. They may have other suggestions for you, too. Talk about different situations that might come up and what would be the best way to handle (处理) them.8. Who is interested in Spi lling Ink: A Yong Writer’s Handbook?A. Corinne.B. Louise.C. Abraham.D. Sam.9. What can we learn about the soccer camp?A. The practice is hard but interesting.B. It is difficult to make friends in the camp.C. The camp only wants people who are new to soccer.D. One’s skills can be improved when leaving the camp.10. The answer to Sam’s question shows what Sam did is _____.A. funnyB. strangeC. foolishD. smart11. This purpose of the text is to _____.A. give adviceB. tell storiesC. find friendsD. share interestsDWe can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. "Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?" "When I got that great job, did Jim, as a friend, really feel good about it? Or did he envy(嫉妒) my luck?" "And was Paul friendly just because I had a car?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it is too late.Why do we go wrong about our friends, or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meanings. And if we do not really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. If someone tells you, "You're a lucky dog!" Is he really on your side? If he says, "You're a lucky guy!", that is being friendly. But what about "a lucky dog?" There is a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn’t see it himself. But the word “dog” puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck."Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for" is another phrase that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem. But covered under this phrase is the thought that your problem is not important at all. It’s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven’t got a date(约会) for Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Is what he says shown by the tone(语调) of voice? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save your another mistake.12. According to the author, the reason why we misunderstand our friends is that _____.A. we tend to believe what they sayB. we tend to doubt what our friends sayC. people usually say one thing but mean anotherD. people usually don’t express themselves clearly13. In the second paragraph, the un derlined word “it” refers to_____.A. being friendlyB. the lucky dogC. a bit of envyD. your luck14. When saying the underlined words in Para. 3 to your friend, you may really mean that _____.A. he is a lucky dogB. he is nothing importantC. he deserves what he hasD. he cares too much about his situation15. The purpose of the author writing the passage is to tell us _____.A. why we misunderstand people sometimesB. how to avoid mistakes about money and friendsC. how to keep people friendly without trusting themD. how to avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you第二节信息匹配题(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。

高一英语下学期期末考试分类汇编阅读理解D
专题04 阅读理解D【Passage 1•广东省东莞市2020-2021学年高一下学期期末英语试题】Some of the oldest art in human history is being damaged, scientists say. And climate change may be speeding up its loss. New research reports that ancient rock art in Indonesian caves is degrading over time, as bits of rock slowly break off from the walls. It's a huge loss for human history.Salt crystals(结晶)building up on the walls are a key part of the problem, the study suggests. These salt crystals go into the cave walls, changing sizes as temperatures rise and fall. This process causes the rock to slowly break down.Salt crystals may become larger when exposed to repeated changes between wet conditions and periods of drought. These kinds of changes are expected to become more obvious as the climate continues to warm.In particular, the researchers say, climate change may cause more intense El Nino (厄尔尼诺)events in the future. These events can strengthen the kinds of conditions that help salt crystals form Scientists are still debating the exact influence of climate change on El Nino, a natural climate cycle that drives changing patterns of warming and cooling in the Pacific Ocean.The new study, led by Jillian Huntley, examined 11 ancient cave art sites in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The researchers found evidence of salt formation at all 11 sites. It's merely a small part There are more than 300 known eave art sites around the region. The researchers note that salt crystals may indeed be part of the problem, adding that climate change is a growing threat, one that deserves more attention. 12.What is the main cause of the rocks breaking off from the wall?A.Weather patterns. B.Salt crystals.C.Wet conditions. D.Drought Periods. 13.Which of the following may researchers agree with?A.El Nino events prevent salt crystals forming.B.Climate change makes little difference to El Nino.C.Salt crystals may become much larger in wet conditions.D.Constant warm weather may cause salt crystals to change size.14.Which word best describes Huntley's attitude to climate change? A.Worried. B.Curious. C.Doubtful.D.Positive.15.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.The formation and patterns of salt crystals.B.The impact of climate change on ancient rock arts,C.The historical value of ancient rock art in cave sites.D.The threats of human activities to ancient eave art sites.【答案】12.B13.D14.A15.B【解析】【分析】本文是说明文。

新疆沙雅县第二中学2018-2019学年高一英语下学期期末考试英语试题含解析
When you visit America, you will see the word Motel on signs and notice boards. It is made up of “motor” and “hotel” and it is really a hotel for people who arrive by car (however, you don’t need a car to stay at one). You have to pay when you arrive for your room, which usually has a bath. Meals are not provided, but there will certainly be a cafeteria (自助餐馆). Americans eat a lot of salads and sandwiches. Along the main roads there are a lot of motels. Each tries to offer more than next. Some provide television in every bedroom; others have swimming pools; and so on. Motels are especially useful when you are in the country, far from a town or city. You will also find them in the big National Parks.

AGetty is a leading global arts organization focused on exhibiting, and understanding the world’s artistic and cultural heritage. Here are some of the exhibitions that will be held in 2024.Paper and LightArtists have for centuries explored the interaction (相互作用) of paper and light, This exhibition of drawings charts some of the creative ways in which the two media were creatively used together. Drawings by more modern artists will show the representation of light.Nineteenth—Century Photography NowThe small, sepia-toned (棕褐色调的) images made in the 19th century may appear remote and unconnected to the present. However, many of the traditions established during the early rise of photographic technology are still in use today. This exhibition provides fresh views on Getty’s collection of 19th-century photography through the works of contemporary artists who respond directly to its historical themes.Dutch Depictions of Extreme WeatherFeaturing drawings and paintings by Hendrick Avercamp and other Dutch artists of the early 1600s, this exhibition focuses on landscapes that highlight extremely cold winters and unusually cool summers. It tells a story of global cooling in the 17th century and shows how artists stressed the uncertainty of life and the necessity for adaptation through their descriptions of ice skating and fishing.Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.)This exhibition tells the story of a mid-20th century cooperation (合作) between artists and engineers to form the group Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.).

Knowing that TUE has a high number of students who come from economically (在经济上) challenged homes, he decided to deal with the problem head-on.According to the Blue Springs School District, a lunch costs $2.55-with a 40-cent reduction for students in need. But even with the reduction, it is still too big a economical burden (负担) for some families. So, wanting to reduce their stress, he started a fundraiser called “Daken Feeds TUE” to clear the lunch debt (债务).Daken took to social media to spread the word, posting a video on his mother, Vanessa Kramer’s website page. It turns out that he’s not just a really kind kid, he’s also a pretty persuasive salesperson as well. His original goal was $3,500 but when word got around, donations came pouring in. Within two weeks, he’d already doubled it.Daken’s actions inspired the school to establish an award in Daken’s honor, to be given to future fifth graders who follow his lead and struggle to make a difference. His teacher, Kristi Haley, announced the “Daken Kramer Legacy Award” at his grade 5 graduation. “I was not expected it,” Daken said. He added it felt good to hear about the award.Daken’s fundraiser made a difference in his community but it also showed a larger issue—the problem withschool lunch debt. Blue Springs School District spokesperson, Katie Woolf, told CNN that meal debt totals more than $235,000 in her district alone. And meal debt is reaching unprecedented (前所未有的) heights across the United States. A recent survey from the School Nutrition Association found school districts have more than $17 million in unpaid meal debt.4. Why did Daken start “Daken Feeds TUE”?A. He decided to raise money for new school supplies.B. He wanted to help some students with lunch debt at TUE.C. He wished to organize a school event for his classmates.D. He aimed to fund a school trip for the fifth graders.5. What was the people’s response to Daken’s fundraiser?A. They actively supported it.B. They misunderstood it.C. They were amazed at it.D. They were unconcerned about it.6. How did Daken feel about the award?A. Disappointed.B. Surprised.C. Embarrassed.D. Doubtful.7. Why are the data listed in the last paragraph?A. To praise Daken’s efforts for school lunch debt.B. To highlight the seriousness of school lunch debt.C. To compare the lunch debt between different schools.D. To explain the reason for the appearance of lunch debt.CFlamingo (火烈鸟) images are everywhere in Florida on tourist T-shirts, hotel names, and the Florida Lottery,logo. However, real pink flamingos have been mostly gone from the state since the early 1900s, when hunters nearly wiped them out, seeking their stylish and valuable feathers (羽毛).Now, however, flamingos seem to be returning to Florida. Birders recorded 101 wild American flamingo sightings across the state in February, according to recently released figures from Audubon Florida. Environmentalists believe many of these birds were carried into the state on the winds of storm in August 2023. Flamingos have landed in Florida after storms in the past, but they usually don’t stay for too long. This time, birders and wildlife biologists all hope that the creatures can stay there.In recent decades, people have sometimes seen flamingos in Florida, including a well-known flamingo named Conchy, who was rescued from an airport in the Florida Keys in 2015. The data showed Conchy moved all over thesouthern part of the state, teaching scientists more about flamingos in Florida in two years than was known in the previous 100 years, writes Lori Rozsa.Meanwhile, environmentalists have been working to restore (恢复) the local wetland habitats (栖息地). In the Caribbean and Mexico, protection efforts have also helped increase the number of flamingo populations. Now, those efforts seem to be paying off.This year, forecasters are predicting a particularly bad storms season. It remains to be seen what that will mean for Florida’s burgeoning flamingo population—and other bird species, more broadly.There may be a few silver linings, however. After storms in September 2022, the number of shorebirds found wrapped in dangerous fishing line dropped by 58 percent in southwest Florida, since fishing piers were destroyed in the storm. “We never welcome storms here in Florida, but we did welcome some passengers,” Jerry Lorenz, director of research for Audubon Florida said.8. What made pink flamingos almost disappear from Florida in the 1900s?A. The loss of habitat.B. Tourism industry.C. The overhunting for their feathers.D. Frequent storms.9. What do we know about Conchy from paragraph 3?A. It was born in the Florida Keys.B. It was found in a zoo in southern Florida.C. It never left the area where it was rescued.D. It gave scientists insights into flamingos’ behavior.10. What does the underlined phrase “silver linings” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Something easy.B. Something good.C Something popular. D. Something interesting..11. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Impact of Storms on Florida’s EcosystemB. Climate Change and Its Effects on FlamingosC. The Pink Phenomenon: Flamingos’ Impact on Florida’s CultureD. Flamingos Return to Florida: Hope After Decades of AbsenceDThe belief that failure leads to success may be both inaccurate and damaging to society, according to research published by the American Psychological Association. Researchers conducted 11 experiments with more than 1,800participants across many fields and compared national statistics (统计数字) to the participants’ responses.In one experiment, participants greatly overestimated (高估) the percentage of future nurses, lawyers and teachers who pass licensing exams after previously failing them. “People expect success to follow failure much more often than it actually does,” said lead researcher Lauren Eskreis-Winkler. “People usually assume that past behavior predicts (预测) future behavior, so it’s surprising that we often believe the opposite when it comes to succeeding after failure.”In some experiments, participants wrongly assumed that people pay attention to their mistakes and learn from them. In one test, nurses overestimated how much their colleagues would learn from a past error. “People often confuse reality with what ought to be,” Eskreis-Winkler said. “People ought to pay attention and learn from failure, but often they don’t do so because failure make people lose motivation (动力).”While telling people they will directly succeed after failure may make them feel better, that the idea can damage real-world results. In one experiment, participants assumed that heart patients would accept healthier lifestyles, but in reality, many of them don’t. People who believe that problems will self-correct after failure are less motivated to help those in need. Why would we invest time or money to help struggling populations if we mistakenly believe that they will right themselves?Failure is normal. However, people need to readjust their expectations when given information about the limited benefits of failure. And take positive measures to support those who have faced challenges.12. How does the author introduce the topic?A. By providing a research result.B. By describing a process.C. By imagining a scene.D. By giving an example.13. Why do people often fail to learn from their mistakes according to the text?A. They tend to forget their mistakes.B. They lack the opportunity to learn.C. They believe failure is a negative experience.D. They assume past success predicts future success.14. What does the author mainly try to do in the last paragraph?A. Make a promise.B. Give warnings.C. Present a fact.D. Offer advice.15. What is the main idea of the text?A. Benefits of failure are overestimated.B. Benefits of failure are limited.C. Failure makes people lose motivation.D. Failure leads to success.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
