2023-2024学年浙江省宁波市镇海中学高一上学期11月期中英语试题
2023-2024学年浙江省宁波市镇海中学高一上学期11月期中英语试题I was terribly shy as a child. I couldn’t bear to be noticed and if I spoke people would notice me, so I spoke as little as possible. About four years ago, I was hanging out with my friends on a playground.I noticed two little girls, who came to play near where we were. The elder sister pulled the younger girl away from us but couldn’t go far, as her sister threw herself on to the ground crying an d refusing to get up. I was longing to comfort her but felt unable to do so.Then I thought: Why am I waiting for someone to give me permission to do what I feel is right? I went over to the little girl and held out my hand. I had merely intended to help her up first but instead she pulled me down into a tight hug. I instantly felt the surge of her emotions flood through me. We knelt on the ground hugging tightly for what felt like a longtime; at one point I tried to move away but she wouldn’t let me go. Th e elder girl had run off, and reappeared with a man I took to be their father. She pointed at me accusingly (谴责地). It occurred to me that he would probably be angry at a stranger hugging his child and might shout at me or even hit me. I then decided that it didn’t matter if he did hit me. At that moment, the only thing that mattered in the world was comforting the little girl in my arms.To my surprise, the man wasn’t angry. He just nodded and held his arms out to his child. She calmed down and went to him willingly. He carried her away and the sister followed them. I watched them disappear into the crowd.That day, I learned that I can speak, and if-I can’t speak, I can take action, which is often easier. I still find speaking difficult. But now I know that if I need to, I can.1. Why did the author approach the little girl on the playground?A．To scold her for crying on the playground.B．To join in the play with her and her sister.C．To understand why she was so emotional.D．To offer comfort and assistance to her.2. Why did the author think it didn’t matter if the father got angry or hit them?A．Her friends would protect her.B．She didn’t care about the consequences.C．She believed the father was friendly.D．She was trying to impress the little girl.3. What is the main message the author wants to convey through this story?A．The significance of seeking permission before helping others.B．The benefits of taking action and making a difference to others.C．The necessity of caution when interacting wi th strangers’ kids.D．The importance of overcoming shyness and becoming brave.Brandon will, 41, put his writing career on hold to become a full-time caregiver to his mom. He takes her on slow walks, trying to encourage her without getting frustrated. He arranges phone calls with her friends, cleans, cooks, and helps her dress and bathe. When she is thirsty, he gets her water.His mom, Janice Will, 72, has Parkinson’s disease and can’t walk unaided across the room. “It’s very humbling,” Janice says. She feels sad to have taken him away from the life he was building in New York.When she was diagnosed(诊断) with Parkinson’s in 2015, Brandon had just been offered a publishing job in New York and thought he could manage his mom’s care. He envisioned freelancing(从事自由职业) full-time while caring for Janice, but Parkinson’s is progressive and unpredictable. After Janice had a serious fall in 2018, he knew he had to return to the Midwest to live with her. Occasionally, he turned down jobs because he wasn’t sure he co uld meet a deadline or asked for extensions when his mom had an emergency. While people are generally understanding, he says, his explanation “still feel like my dog ate my homework” excuses.He says he has no regrets about becoming his mom’s caregiver, bu t there are financial and personal consequences. “These are my prime earning years. I will always be working to catch up,” says Brandon.Younger caregivers are frequently torn between work responsibilities and care. The Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers found that 23% of caregivers ages 18 to 44 had to quit their full-time jobs, while 57% had to reduce their hours and work part-time, according to a survey conducted in 2021. Support groups have been invaluable. At one meeting, Brandon and Janice learned about a program called Dancing With Parkinson’s and now attend each Thursday. I love to dance, “Janice says. Brandon also joined an advocacy organization, Caring Across Generations, and he and his mom started writing together, posting essays on a website they call Our-Will-Power. Brandon says he has put aside, for now, aspirations to write young-adult novels and is working on a memoir about his initial hesitance to become a caregiver. He plans to call it “See If I Care.”4. Which of the following wo rds can be used to replace the word “envisioned” underlined in paragraph 3?A．feared B．imagined C．accepted D．prepared5. Why does Brandon describe his explanation as “still feel like my dog ate my homework”?A．To show that his explanations are clear and well-received.B．To show that he faces no challenges in explaining his situation：C．To show that his explanation still sounds like excuses to others.D．To show that people are generally unsympathetic to his situation.6. In the last paragraph, how does Brandon and Janice deal with the challenges?A．By seeking mental support from each other and experienced groups.B．By launching an advocacy organization for caregivers and older adults.C．By carrying on with Brandon’s aspiration of writing young-adult novels.D．By reading essays on a website and strengthening their will power.Now, new research suggests frequent exercise might help you live well in another meaningful way—that is, in terms of income. Researchers investigated whether individuals who stayed active would earn more money as a result of their active lifestyle. It revealed that staying active not only resulted in higher present earnings, but also predicted increased future income throughout one’s life.The researchers set out to explore three key correlations (相互关系)：How mobility-the ability to move, affected income, how mobility influenced income overtime, and whether exercise could help people maintain their mobility as they aged. The team analyzed data from Health and Retirement Study(HRS), the largest study tracking changes overtime in Americans aged 50 and above. This study takes into account various life aspects, including work, social status, health, psychology and family matters, as individuals age.To evaluate the impact of current mobility on income, the researchers examined data from over 19, 000 respondents (调查对象) to determine how well they could perform simple tasks, such as climbing stairs, or moving around a room. Each person received a score, with 5 indicating full mobility and 0 indicating difficulties with these tasks. The researchers found that for each decrease in the mobility category, individuals lost out on an average of $3, 000 in annual income compared to their peers. Those who were active were also significantly more likely to remain working for longer than the other group. It appeared that engaging in exercise enabled individuals to maintain mobility and engage in professional life for a longer period of time than those who were less active.Looking at earnings overtime revealed even more substantial benefits for those who remained active throughout their lives. Active individuals showed an overall income level that was $6, 500 higher, along with higher rates of employment. For the third part of the study, it’s not surpri sing that those who engaged in exercise continued to maintain their mobility after the age of 55 and had higher employment rates. Even exercising just one day a week showed improvements in mobility outcomes.While this study doesn’t definitively prove that leading a healthy lifestyle directly leads to higher earnings, it strongly suggests that staying healthy and mobile brings benefits beyond just lower levels of disease.7. What didn’t researchers take into consideration when designing their experiment?A．Family matters B．Work and social statusC．Health and psychology D．Educational background8. According to paragraph 3, what’s the impact of current mobility on income?A．Increased mobility slightly reduces annual incomeB．Greater mobility is closely related to higher incomeC．Decreased mobility greatly increases the overall incomeD．Maintaining mobility has nothing to do with the income9. What’s the author’s attitude towards leading a healthy lifestyle?A．Favorable B．In different C．Opposed D．Doubtful10. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．Exercise Lowers Levels of All DiseasesB．Exercise Promotes Work EfficiencyC．Exercise Helps to Make More MoneyD．Exercise Ensures A Longer LifespanHow to Take Notes from a TextbookBe selective.You should not write down every piece of information in the book. 11 Finding the right balance of writing enough but not too much can be a challenge, but it is the key to taking effective notes. Paraphrase information from the text.12 Paraphrasing information usually shows that you really understood what you read. It will likely be more meaningful to you later when you are reviewing your notes if you have written them in your own words.13Your notes may take on the form of a chart. You might draw yourself a timeline of events so that you can see the order that things happened and not just a list of events. The notes are your study aid, so it’s best to write them in a way that makes sense to you.Organize your notes in a meaningful way.Depending on the subject, you may want to organize your notes in a particular way. History notes maybe most logically taken in time order. Science notes, however, may need to be taken in a particular order that shows mastery of one concept before moving on to the next. 14Add visual elements if it helps you.Visual learners are often helped by visual representations in their own notes. 15 You may want to draw a simple comics trip(连环漫画) to show a specific event or interactio n between people. Don’t let adding visual elements distract you from the task at hand, but add visuals if it will help you remember the material more effectively.Jackie was tall, thin, lovely, and quiet.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.“Cool” can be used to express feelings or interest in almost an ything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say “It’s cool.” You may think “He’s so cool.” You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teac her asked her students to write about the waterfall they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and how he felt.But the story also show a scarcity(缺乏) of words.

There are many different kinds of kites there. Some look like bats; others look like birds. Most have pictures on them.There are many interesting stories about kites in Japan.One story tells us about a thief who used a kite to fly. He wanted to steal the gold from the top of an old tower. The thief and his friends made a large kite. One dark windy night, the thief caught hold of(抓住) the kite. His friends raised the kite into the air. Then they moved the kite near the top of the tower. The thief was able to steal the gold.Another story tells about a father and a son who were on a small lonely island in the middle of the Japanese sea. There were no bouts or ships. They couldn’t go back to the mainl and. So they made a big kite. His son flew on it back to Japan.There is a K-Day in Japan. The young men of Japan have kite matches.

Canadians also celebrate Thanksgiving Day, but they do it on the second Monday of October. In Britain, where the festival is called “ Harvest Festival”, people celebrate earlier in the year, in September.A harvest is the fruit you take from the trees and the crops you take from the ground. In North America, Europe, and England, harvest time for most fruit and crops is in the special day of the year. They thank God for the good things that have happened during the year and for the good harvest they have had. People usually take small boxes of fruit, flowers, and vegetables to their churches to show their thanks.The first thanksgiving service in North America took place on 4 December 1610 when 38 English people arrived in America to make their home in the new country. They held this service not to thank God for the harvest, but to thank God for their safe journey. The next year, many more English people arrived. They had a bad winter, but fortunately the harvest was good. They decided to celebrate with a big meal. They shot and killed small animals to eat and cooked everything outside on large fires. About 90 Indians also came to the meal. Everyone ate at tables outside their houses and played games together. The festival lasted three days.A Thanksgiving Day celebration was held every year for a long time, but not always on the same day of the year. Then, in 1789, President George Washington named 26 November as the Day of Thanksgiving. Almost a hundred years later, President Abraham Lincoln changed the date, and said that the last Thursday in November should be Thanksgiving Day.Nowadays, North Americans around the world get together with their families on this day to eat good food and have a happy time.39. The story is about ____.A. festivalsB. an American festivalC. English people in AmericaD. giving thanks for everything40.

He was born in Salzburg,Austria, in 1756. Even when he was very young, Mozart loved music. His father, who was the leader of an orchestra, was very happy that his son was so interested in music. When Mozart was three years old, he learned to play the harpsichord, which is a kind of piano. Mozart began to compose music at the age of five, and his father took him to play in front of the kings and queens of Europe.At one concert, one of the violinists was missing from the orchestra. Mozart picked up a violin and played the music without a mistake. Mozart’s father and the other pl ayers in the orchestra were surprised. Mozart had never been taught to play the violin! Mozart continued travelling around Europe with his father, who was his teacher in everything. He composed many pieces for the piano, the violin, and later for full orchestra.Mozart could write down a piece of music even if he had heard it only once. One day, he went to hear a group of people singing in a big church in Rome. The song was very special. The church leader said that people could sing the song only once a year, and only in his church. No one else was allowed to have the music. Mozart listened to the song. Although it was very difficult and long, Mozart went back home and wrote down the whole piece from memory. The head of the church heard about this, and instead of being angry with Mozart, he gave him a prize.When Mozart grew up, people were not so interested in him. He worked as a teacher and pianist, but he did not make much money. In 1791, at the age of 35, he died. He was so poor that there was not enough money for him to have a proper grave.

浙江省杭州市（含周边）重点中学2023-2024学年高一上学期11月期中英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解3 Most Walkable Cities in EuropeWalking on holiday is a great way to stay fit, but also to see the sights a city has to offer. Here are the three most walkable cities in Europe.Athens, GreeceAthens is one of the oldest cities in the world. The capital of Greece ranks fifth, with a slightly longer—but very worthwhile—route of 2.1 miles between its top-rated tourist attractions.Visitors to Athens can set off at the Acropolis, climbing to discover the ancient Parthenon that stands as a landmark to the city’s ancient legacy. Then it leads to the Acropolis Museum, with the neighbourhood of Plaka waiting to be explored in the shadow of the Acropolis. The National Archaeological Museum is also close-by.Seville, SpainSeville is home to some wonderful sights that are best seen when walking. Seville in Spain takes the top spot as Europe’s most walkable city, offering the shortest walking route between the top five tourist attractions.Visitors to this charming Spanish city can explore the impressive Plaza de Espana public square, before wandering over to the UNESCO-listed palace of Real Alcazar and Seville Cathedral. After that it’s only a short trip on foot to visit the beautiful Barrio Santa Cruz neighbourhood and admire the Torre Giralda bell tower hanging above. With just 20 minutes of walking between these attractions.Venice, ItalyVenice is famous for walkers, so it’s no surprise it ranks as the second best location for walkable city breaks. Walking is the best way to explore the bridges over the canals the city is famed for. There are endless charming alleyways to explore, as well as plenty of bridges over the canals that the city is famous for. Just under half an hour of walking here will take you on a tour of the impressive Grand Canal.1．What’s the recommended starting point of the city walk in Athens?A．Plaka.B．The Acropolis.C．The Acropolis Museum.D．The National Archaeological Museum .2．Why is Sevilla the top destination as a walkable city in Europe?A．It offers some wonderful sights.B．Visitors can explore five tourist attractions.C．It makes visitors enjoy their time to the full.D．Visitors can tour five tourist attractions in the shortest walking distance.3．Who is the text intended for?A．Those who are hiking during the vacation.B．Those who want to find suggestions on where to travel.C．Those who are looking for the best traveling destinations.D．Those who usually choose walkable cities for their vacation.Back in the day when I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with my life, I was studying to become a firefighter. As a firefighter, you’re constantly thinking of other people and trying to help children. It’s the mindset, that is the most difficult part in this job!One night I was heading home and decided to stop off at a burrito (玉米饼) place. I was approached by a homeless man. He was very dirty and obviously hungry. He asked me for some change to buy a little food. As I was pulling some change out, I had an idea.I decided to see if he wanted to eat a real dinner, so I asked him to follow me back into the burrito joint to order. When he followed me in, the people behind the count er refused to let him in. After some arguing, so I had to encourage him to order whatever and however much he wanted. He ended up ordering enough to fill his stomach at least 3 times over!For someone who has been on the edges of society it seemed like he was very surprised at my kind behavior. But to me, it was what any “human being” should do or at least offer. I know we see these people every day asking for money but you had to be there to see the look in his face. To me it reminded me when I was young and my mom brought out a big birthday cake for me on my birthday, with all the candy, getting to experience a big meal. And I think he felt special, like he was getting attention. Again something that I could see he hadn’t experienced in a long time.I often think about this story, because to me it’s not just about helping someone out by feeding them, but giving him the respect of being a human being and allowing him to feel good about himself was very rewarding.4．What’s the hardest part of being a firefighter according to the author?A．Learning to be a good firefighter.B．Deciding what to do in the future.C．Dealing with the brother’s relationship.D．Developing the mindset of helping others.5．What do we know about the homeless man?A．He was grateful for the author’s kindness.B．He ordered whatever he wanted the moment he was in.C．He asked the author to buy a burrito to fill his stomach.D．He was not welcomed by those running the burrito joint at first.6．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the birthday cake?A．To think back to his own birthday at a young age.B．To explain the reason for the values he holds onto.C．To show the similar experience of the homeless man.D．To tell the difference between him and the homeless man.7．Which of the following words can best describe the writer?A．Caring and humorous.B．Selfless and determined.C．Kind-hearted and thoughtful.D．Considerate and Hard-working.This summer, daytime temperatures topped 100 degrees for a full month in northwest China. Southern Europe experienced waves of 100-plus degree days. Heat waves show a serious reality: human-driven climate change is making extreme heat worse worldwide. But health-threatening heat isn’t the only result of record-breaking weather: air pollution happens when the temperatures rise according to a new report from the World Meteorological Organization.The new report, which focuses on 2022, shows the growing risk of air pollution connected to wildfires. Hotter temperatures increase the risk of large the risk of large,hot-burning fires, which can pump enormous plumes of smoke into the air. That smoke causes health problems near the fire but also for people thousands of miles downwind.Extreme heat, also drives up the likelihood of drought, which in turn makes big dust storms more likely. Great clouds of fine dust blew off major deserts last year, particularly affecting the Arabian Peninsula region. Southern Europe also got hit by a major dust storm after a heat wave baked the deserts of northern Africa in the summer.“That’s a very bad combination of conditions,” says Julie Nicely, an atmospheric chemist at the University of Maryland, who worked on the report. That mix is particularly dangerous for elderly people, or people with breathing sensitivities. “That is very bad for the lungs and the cardiovascular (心血管),” she says.Air pollution levels have dropped in the past few decades in response to environmental regulations like the Clean Air Act in the United States. Ozone pollution (臭氧污染), however, remains a problem. The report authors point out that the extra heat in the atmosphere driven by climate change overpowers even the gains made by strict environmental protections. The authors suggested focusing on the importance of slowing or changing human-caused climate change as quickly as possible.“Climate change and air quality cannot be treated separately. They go hand in hand and must be solved together to break this cycle,” WMO Secretary General Petteri Taalas said in a press release.8．Why is the extreme weather in northwest China and southern Europe mentioned in Para l?A．To introduce the topic.B．To show the serious situation.C．To warn people of the bad weather.D．To compare two countries’ weather.9．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A．Air pollution is likely to be solved in the future.B．Climate change and air quality are closely connected.C．It’s no use slowing or changing human-caused climate change.D．People’s efforts to protect the environment make no difference.10．What’s the result of environmental regulation like the Clean Air Act?A．It deals with the air pollution completely.B．It makes a big difference to the air problem.C．It has made the problem of air pollution worse.D．It is partly effective in dealing with air pollution.11．Where is the text most probably taken from?A．A science magazine.B．A travel brochure.C．A research paper.D．An encyclopedia.Artificial intelligence (AI) plays an important role in the Asian Games Hangzhou 2022 and Asian Para Games. AI usually refers to the advanced technologies, such as the naked﹣eye 3D, AR and so on. These terms might sound familiar, but how smart are they when applied to the 56 Asian Games venues (场地)?Their smartness can be found in running the venues with less human labor forces and with more connections between man and machines. At the Huanglong Sports Center, a system called Smart Stadium Brain is built. The Brain, a 25 square meter high definition screen in the venue’s information center, the lighting, the energy consumption guarantee a friendly environment for the athletes and audiences. For the benefit of audiences, a small screen on each seat is designed to be at the audience’s service. By finger touching, the audience can control it from three parts—angle, and size to watch and keep contact with the event. What’s more, supported by the 5 G technology.AI also means further protection on environment. At the Fuyang sports Center, although it has been raining for days, the roof of the venue still remains dry. And the secret lies in its attractive sky garden. The garden, is not only eye﹣catching but also useful. It allows the greening rate of the entire stadium to reach as high as 45%, being energy﹣saving. Under the cobblestones (鹅卵石) , a recovery system is filtering (过滤) and collecting rainwater for the venue’s water system, and irrigation water.Smart devices are employed both inside and outside the venues. For example, the Tonglu sports Center starts a WeChat mini﹣program for any follower to learn about the venue through VR games and videos before the Hangzhou Asian Games. During the Games, the program will allow the athletes and audiences to place orders online.12．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “guarantee” in Para2?A．Make sure of.B．Take advantage of.C．Get used to.D．Keep up with.13．What can we infer from Para2?A．The audience can’t see the whole venue on the large screen.B．The stadium is environmentally friendly and advanced but costly.C．The audience can control small screens on their seats as they wish.D．Small screens make the game watching enjoyable and convenient.14．How does the roof of the venue keep dry while it’s raining?A．By saving energy.B．By using the cobblestone of the sky garden.C．By recycling the rainwater.D．By improving the greening rate.15．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Asian Games with Artificial Intelligence.B．A Sports Center with Smart Stadium Brain.C．More Connections with Smart Devices.D．Smart Asian Games with High﹣tech Venues.二、七选五Creative ways to change your workoutsMost people know working out is good for your health, both physical and mental.16 Sure, you may get excited about training for a 5 K or 10 K, but once the race is over, only to become tired of it after a few weeks.Create a word or image with your exercise routeRunners often map routes through city streets that create a word or image, then use a GPS device to “draw” it as they run. 17 Not sure what image or message to create? You can always follow artistic routes others have created and shared in the apps.Some are impressively complex and may take several excursions to complete.But that’s part of the fun.Join a free fitness groupExercising can be more fun with others, so look for group fitness opportunities. Manycommunities offer free exercise opportunities. Fitness in the Park is a summer-long activity that has been operating in New York state for a decade. Everyone is welcome to head to one of 18 different parks. 18 “The best part is grabbing a partner that you don’t know, or getting together with one that you do,” Frion said. “It’s always so much fun.”19Sure, you can run a 5 K. But why not try orienteering (定向越野赛)? This timed navigational sport requires you to use detailed maps to find orange-and-white flags that are hidden in parks or remote areas. Races involve difficult running routesDanceWhether you take a class or practice at home, dancing is a great way to get your body moving. Dancing doesn’t seem like exercise to a lot of people, which is why it’s always a popular choice. 20 “The workout allows for a creative aspect and meditation at the same time,” she said. “Many people come because it is an opportunity to try something different, as well as to dance in a nonjudgmental space.”A．Hit the road.B．Sign up for a new-to-you event.C．Participants have ranged in age from about 10 to over 70.D．But staying motivated — especially for the long term — can be a struggle.E．The event is timed, so people often jog or power walk from flag to flag.F．You can do the same, whether your favored exercise is running, walking or biking.G．It’s also something you can do anywhere, to any kind of music, salsa, hip-hop — it all works.三、完形填空On a Kindness Mission with my Smile CardsToday, before I headed into town for a job interview, I decided to try to use my Smile Cards as many as I could throughout the day.The weather was 21 , for it was pouring with rain, and I would’ve loved to buy umbrellas for people.I decided to think of free or really cheap ways to make people smile.

When the second bus arrives at the same stop, there has been less time for passengers to assemble (聚集), so the bus goes on its way quickly. Meanwhile, the first bus arrives at its next stop a little later than usual, so the re’s been more time for passengers to join the crowd. ____35____ Once one bus catches up with the other bus, the two buses end up travelling together.

Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter，rude boss, or an insensitive employee 16 your day?One day I was in a taxi and we headed 17 the airport. We were driving in the 18 lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver pressed hard on his 19 , and at the very last moment our car stopped and 20 the other car by just inches！The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, looked around and started 21 at us.My taxi driver just 22 and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was 23 , so I said, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sen t us to the hospital！” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck".He said, “Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of 24 , anger and disappointment. As their garbage 25 up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on 26 . Don’t take it personally; just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Believe me. You’ll be 27 .”So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and 28 it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said, “I don’t want their garbage and I’m not going to spread it anymore.”Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with 29 . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s 30 in your life. A study shows that 31 you remember bad things more often than good things in your life, you’ll think of bad things more 32 . So love the p eople who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you 33 it！If you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”, you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by 34 go of the bad.Have a Garbage-Free Day！Have a marvelous, garbage-free day！The seeds you plant today35 the harvest you gain tomorrow.16.

I wanted to play outside and not to be made to finish eating my old rice. In my angry motion to open the screen door with my foot, I had kicked back about a 12-inch part of the lower left hand corner of the new screen door. But I had no regret, for I was happy to be playing in the backyard with my toys.Today, I know if my child had done what I did, I would have scolded my child, and told him about how expensive this new screen door was, and I would have delivered a spanking (打屁股) for it. They never said a word. They left the corner of the screen door pushed out, creating an opening, a breach (裂缝) in the defense against unwanted insects.For years, every time I saw that corner of the screen, it would constantly remind me of my mistake. For years, I knew that everyone in my family would see that hole and remember who did it. For years, every time I saw a fly buzzing in the kitchen, I would wonder if it came in through the hole that I had created with my angry foot. I would wonder if my family members were thinking the same thing, silently blaming me every time a flying insect entered our home, making life more terrible for us all. My parents taught me a valuable lesson, one that a spanking or stern (严厉的) words perhaps could not deliver. Their silent punishment for what I had done delivered a hundred stern messages to me. Above all, it has helped me become a more patient person and not burst out so easily.36. When the author damaged the door, his parents __________.A. scolded him for what he had doneB. gave him a spankingC. told him how expensive it wasD. left the door unrepaired37. How did the author feel every time he saw the damaged door?A. He felt it destroyed the happy atmosphere at his home.B. He found that his family members no longer liked him.C. He felt ashamed of his uncontrolled anger at that time.D. He felt he had to work hard to make up for the damage.38. The experience may cause the author ___________.A. to have a better control of himselfB. not to go against his parents’ willC. to hide his anger away from othersD. not to make mistakes in the future39. What is the main idea of this text?A. Adults should ignore their children’s bad behavior.B. Silent punishment may have a better effect on educating people.C. What is the best way to become a more patient person.D. Parents are the best teachers of their children.BActive ChallengeWeight loss camp for girls aged 13-18 in CanadaActive Challenge is a weight loss program specially for young women.

Along with more than 300 other seniors, I marched into the stadium on the afternoon of May 10. The audience burst into deafening cheers. The huge stadium shook with all the whistling and clapping.It was as if a Hollywood superstar had walked on stage. And indeed, every single senior that day was a star of the moment. Each deserved it. The seniors had been preparing for four years for this once-in-a-lifetime moment—the graduation ceremony.Seated, I waited anxiously for the opening speech. As a foreign exchange student, I was not able to receive a diploma. However, I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things. Like the other graduates, I was dressed in maroon（紫褐色）cap and gown.Our principal, Mr. Glover, delivered a short, warm greeting. The US national anthem followed and then, hands on chests, a solemn Pledge of Allegiance (效忠誓言).Students who had done well academically gave farewell speeches. The tears in some eyes convinced me that many had deep feelings about the occasion. It was as the class motto says,“Life brings us tears, smiles and memories. The tears dry; the smiles fade; but the memories last forever.”Then came the most important part of the ceremony. Hundreds of names were announced. Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his or her diploma from the principal. From the different cheers each graduate got, we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest.To be honest, the presentation of diplomas got boring. A girl sitting next to me even started yawning. But it wasn’t boring for those receiving the diploma: they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives.A new page in the book of that person’s life had turned. They were glimpsing (开始领悟) their futures: Futures of challenge, hardship, perhaps loneliness too, which would take all of their courage.43. What’s the article mainly about?A. An American graduation ceremony.B. The opening ceremony of a sports meeting.C. A presentation of college diplomas.D. A US college’s farewell party.44. We know from the text that the author __________.A. felt lost about the futureB. received her diploma on May 10C. was actually a student from a foreign schoolD. felt upset at the presentation ceremony45. The right order of the following events is __________.a. Diplomas were presented to graduates.b. Students gave farewell speeches.c. The US national anthem was played.d. The principal gave a short, warm speech.e. Seniors went into the stadium.A. d,c,a,b,eB. e,d,b,c,aC. d,b,e,a,cD. e,d,c,b,a46. From the text, we can infer that __________.A. foreign exchange students could get the diplomaB. the ceremony symbolizes the beginning of a new stage in lifeC. a diploma means a bright future for a graduateD. everyone felt excited at the presentation of the diplomaDUsing tablet computers like Apple’s iPad and Samsung’s Galaxy Note just before bed can lead to a poor night’s sleep, according to research.More and more people are taking their tablets to bed with them to surf the web, check Facebook or email before switching off the light. But researchers are warning that the blueish light their screens give off can stop users getting a goo d night’s sleep. That is because this type of light is like daylight, convincing the brain that it is still daytime. Blue light suppresses production of a brain chemical called melatonin (褪黑激素), which helps us fall asleep. This is because our brains have evolved to be wakeful during daylight hours. By contrast, light which is more orange or red in tone does not reduce melatonin production, perhaps because our brains recognize it as a hint that the day is ending.Neurologists (神经病学家) have known for years that staring at screens late in the evening can disturb sleep. Researchers are warning that looking at tablet displays for more than two hours“leads to a suppression of our natural melatonin levels as the devices give off optical radiation (光辐射) at short wavelengths”—in other words, they give off bluer light.They say:“Although turning off devices at night is the ultimate solution, it is recommended that if these devices are used at night,displays are dimmed as much as possible and that the time spent on them before bed should be limited.”They drew their conclusions after measuring melatonin levels in 13 volunteers, after they had spent time viewing iPads at full brightness at a distance of 10 inches, for two hours. Melatonin levels were significantly lower after they had done this, than they were after the volunteers had viewed their iPads for the same time, but while wearing orange glass goggles(护目镜), which cut out the blue light.It is not just a good night’s sleep that could be damaged by too much late night screen time. Researchers know that continuous disturbance to sleep patterns can lead to an increased risk of obesity, and even breast cancer.47. What stops users from getting a good night’s sleep?A. Blueish light.B. Screens.C. Melatonin.D. Orange or red light.48. The underlined word “suppresses” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.A. increasesB. removesC. reducesD. handles49. We can infer from the passage that _________.A. orange and red light does harm to a good night’s sleepB. too much late night screen time leads to more than sleep problemC. the less melatonin our body produces, the more easily we fall asleepD. our brains recognize orange or red light in tone as a hint that the day is ending50. The writer’s purpose for writing this article is to ________.A. complain about problems caused by using iPads before bedB. inform readers of a recent researchC. offer some suggestions on late night screen viewingD. support late night screen viewing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。
