【全国百强校】黑龙江省鹤岗市第一中学2020-2021学年高一上学期期末考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择Charlie is a teacher and his wife, Maria is an artist. The night before last, just before the longest day of the year, Charlie was sitting in a deckchair enjoying the warm summer air when Maria touched his shoulder and he could tell immediately she was a little worried about something. He asked her what the matter was and she replied that there was a strange thing on the jacket that was hanging in the bedroom. They had both lived in the West Indies (西印度群岛) and had seen a lot of strange creatures in their house before. But now they were living in England and so Charlie just laughed and said he would have a look at the “thing”.He walked to the bedroom. He saw a jacket hanging in the bedroom and went up to it to have a closer look at the “thing”. The moment he touched it, the thing sprang into life. Now Charlie experiences fear like the rest of us but when this creature opened its wings, he jumped out of his skin and ran screaming from the room like a small child doing about 100 miles an hour.For a moment the next-door neighbours thought that Charlie was murdering his wife because of the noise they could hear. In fact, it was a bat that frightened Charlie.Eventually Charlie managed to trap the bat in a box and took it to the garden to let the bat fly. Maria, who had been playing the guitar while Charlie was upstairs, asked Charlie if he had found out what the thing was. “Oh, nothing to worry about”, he said casually hoping that the terror could not be seen in his eyes, “it was just a bat.”1．Why was Maria a little worried one night?A．Because she couldn't find her guitar. B．Because she saw something strange. C．Because it was too hot for her. D．Because she had quarreled with her husband.2．The underlined part “jumped out of his skin” in the second paragraph probably means ____. A．stood up B．was very frightenedC．threw off his clothes D．was very excited3．What happened to the bat?A．It was killed by Charlie. B．It was badly wounded.C．It was set free by Charlie. D．It was kept as a pet.4．It can be inferred that ________.A．Charlie was afraid that his wife would laugh at him if she knew the truthB．the neighbours would report to the police about Charlie murdering the batC．the bat wouldn't come to Charlie's room again because it was frightenedD．Maria heard her husband screaming downstairs and became frightenedTeenagers who spend hours in front of the television may have a poorer diet as young adults.A study，which included nearly 1，400 high school students，found those who watched TV for five hours or more per day had less healthy diets than peers(同龄人）five years later. Why does this happen? Should the parents take any measures?On the one hand，people who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers，may snack more，and that may affect their long-term diet quality.On the other hand，TV ads for fast food，sweets and snacks tempt teenagers to eat more of those foods. And TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.Lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr-Anderson，of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis，told Reuters Health a clear correlation between TV time during high school and diet quality in young adulthood. While the heaviest TV viewers were eating the most junk food , those who'd watched less than two hours per day had the highest intake(吸收)offruits，vegetables, whole grains and high-calcium food. In her opinion，parents should limit and monitor TV viewing.As far as I am concerned，children should watch no more than two hours of television per day. And parents should set a good example by eating right，being physically active and curbing their own TV time.5．What's the best title for this passage?A．People should keep away from TV to keep healthy.B．Teenagers' TV time may affect their diets later.C．Why do teenagers like TV"D．Parents' own habits may affect children later.6．According to the passage，heavy TV viewers tend to＿．A．eat more fruits B．eat less junk foodC．take in fewer vegetables D．take in high-calcium food7．What suggestion does the author give the parents？A．They must watch TV with their children.B．They should forbid the children to watch TV.C．They should pay attention to nutrition in diets.D．They can't do what they don't want their children to do.8．The underlined word“curbing" in the last paragraph can be replaced byA．controlling B．checkingC．adding D．stoppingDublin City GuideDelightful and full of surprises, Dublin packs a blow that, delivered correctly, will leave you a shock.

However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.16．Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency (趋势) to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. 17．Others take a more active approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations (诱惑) that surround them. Atelevision in the living room may provide entertainment. However, watching too much TV in your spare time often contributes to laziness.18．Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film. Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately.19．Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.20．Enough exercise and a balanced diet can enable you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.A．To fight family laziness, set an example.B．Knowing how to fight laziness is important.C．One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.D．Finally, developing a healthy lifestyle can help you fight laziness.E.With strong determination (意志力), you will be able to achieve your goal.F.Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task.G.Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child.三、完形填空Scientists find that hardworking people live longer than average men and women. Career women are 21 than housewives. Evidence shows that the 22 are in poorer health than the job-holders. A study shows 23 the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate 24 correspondingly (相应地) by 2%. All this comes down to one point: work is 25 to health.Why is work good for health? It is 26 work keeps people busy, away from loneliness and solitude (孤独). Researches show that people feel 27 , worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are 28 . Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when working hard. Work serves as a 29 between man and reality. By work, people 30 each other. By collective (集体的) activity, they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work 31 the loss of everything. It affects (影响) man spiritually and makes him liable to (易于) 32 .33 , work gives one a sense of achievement (成就感). Work makes one feel his34 and status in society. When a 35 finishes his writing or a doctor successfully 36 a patient or a teacher sees his students 37 , all of them will be happy beyond38 .From the above we can 39 the conclusion (结论) that the more you 40 , the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard, study well and live a happy and healthy life.21．A．cleverer B．healthier C．weaker D．worse 22．A．beautiful B．injured C．jobless D．sick 23．A．whenever B．whether C．though D．since 24．A．stays B．changes C．falls D．increases 25．A．helpful B．equal C．harmful D．familiar 26．A．where B．that C．why D．because 27．A．lucky B．serious C．cheerful D．sad 28．A．busy B．free C．lazy D．empty 29．A．river B．gap C．channel D．bridge 30．A．come up with B．have contact with C．look down upon D．look up to 31．A．means B．explains C．becomes D．matches 32．A．peace B．silence C．happiness D．disease 33．A．Besides B．Nevertheless C．However D．Yet 34．A．pay B．value C．rate D．price 35．A．worker B．farmer C．writer D．manager 36．A．manages B．controls C．operates on D．deals with 37．A．stand B．grow C．rise D．sleep 38．A．doubt B．actions C．notes D．words 39．A．come to B．turn to C．stick to D．point to 40．A．dance B．play C．speak D．work四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容或括号内单词的正确形式。

But our fundswere1, and none of the houses in our price range seemed satisfactory.One agent2 a house in particular. Although her description sounded wonderful, the price was3our range, so we declined. But she kept urging us to have a look4.We finally did and it was5at first sight. It was Our Home, small and charming, overlooking a quiet lake. Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a nice elderly couple, we felt the warmth and6of the marriage within that home. As perfect as it was, the price remained too high for us. But every day, we would sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of7it would be like to live there.Days later, we made a(n)8—far below the asking price. Surprisingly, they didn't9us. They renewed their offer10. It was also much more than we could afford, but far11than the original asking price.The next day, we got a12message that another buyer had offered a much higher price.

Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn't just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company's "Oshbot" robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product's location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. "We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us, " said Breazeal.(1) How are social robots different from household robots?A. They can control their emotions.B. They are more like humans.C. They do the normal housework.D. They respond to users more slowly.(2) What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?A. Communicate with you and perform operations.B. Answer your questions and make requests.C. Take your family pictures and deliver milk.D. Obey your orders and remind you to take pills.(3) What can Oshbot work as?A. A language teacher.B. A tour guide.C. A shop assistant.D. A private nurse.(4) We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will.A. train employeesB. be our workmatesC. improve technologiesD. take the place of workers(5) What does the passage mainly present?A. A new design idea of household robots.B. Marketing strategies for social robots.C. Information on household robots.D. An introduction to social robots.19、【来源】 2015年高考真题天津卷第19题2017~2018学年12月河南洛阳洛龙区洛阳市第一高级中学高二上学期月考第21~25题10分2017~2018学年陕西西安雁塔区陕西师范大学附属中学高三上学期开学考试第24~28题10分One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem—inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the "Children's Room."I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.My mother's call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my "miraculous"（奇迹般地）experience that summer, but she sawa slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.(1) The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to.A. encourage him to do more walkingB. let him spend a meaningful summerC. help cure him of his reading problemD. make him learn more about weapons(2) The book caught the author's eye because.A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked children's stories very much(3) Why could the author manage to read the book throughA. He was forced by his mother to read it.B. He identified with the story in the book.C. The book told the story of his pet dog.D. The happy ending of the story attracted him.(4) What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author has become a successful writer.B. The author's mother read the same book.C. The author's mother rewarded him with books.D. The author has had happy summers ever since.(5) Which one could be the best title of the passage?A. The Charm of a BookB. Mum's Strict OrderC. Reunion with My BeagleD. My Passion for Reading20、【来源】 2015年高考真题天津卷第20题DOnce when I was facing a decision that involved high risk, I went to a friend. He looked at me for a moment, and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice I've ever had: Be bold and brave — and mighty (强大的) forces will come to your aid.Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past, it was seldom because I had tried and failed. It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from trying at all. On the other hand, whenever I had plunged into deep water, forced by courage or circumstance, I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again.Boldness means a decision tobite off more than you can eat. And there is nothing mysterious about the mighty forces. They are potential powers we possess: energy, skill, sound judgment, creative ideas —even physical strength greater than most of us realize.Admittedly, those mighty forces are spiritual ones. But they are more important than physical ones. A college classmate of mine, Tim, was an excellent football player, even though he weighed much less than the average player. “In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,” said Tim. “I was so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet — and stopped him cold.”Boldness — a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme—is not one that can be acquired overnight. But it can be taught to children and developed in adults. Confidence builds up. Surely, there will be setbacks (挫折) and disappointments in life; boldness in itself is no guarantee of success. But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.So, always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities—and you'll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed.(6) Why was the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?A. He faced huge risks.B. He lacked mighty forces.C. Fear prevented him from trying.D. Failure blocked his way to success.(7) What is the implied meaning of the underlined part?A. Swallow more than you can digest.B. Act slightly above your abilities.C. Develop more mysterious powers.D. Learn to make creative decisions.(8) What was especially important for Tim’s successful defense in the football game?A. His physical strength.B. His basic skill.C. His real fear.D. His spiritual force.(9) What can be learned from Paragraph 5?A. Confidence grows more rapidly in adults.B. Trying without success is meaningless.C. Repeated failure creates a better life.D. Boldness can be gained little by little.(10) What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A. To encourage people to be courageous.B. To advise people to build up physical power.C. To tell people the ways to guarantee success.D. To recommend people to develop more abilities.四、任务型阅读21、【来源】 2015年高考真题天津卷第21题Six days a week, up and down the red hills of northeast Georgia, my grandfather brought the mail to the folks there. At age 68, he retired from the post office, but he never stopped serving the community.On his 80th birthday, I sent him a letter, noting the things we all should be thankful for — good health, good friends and good outcomes. By most measurements he was a happy man. Then I suggested it was time for him to slow down. At long last, in a comfortable home, with a generous pension, he should learn to take things easy.“Thank you for your nice words,” he wrote in his letter back, “and I know what you meant, but slowing down scares me. Life isn't having it made; it's getting it made.”“The finest and happiest years of our lives were not when all the debts were paid, and all difficult experiences had passed, and we had settled into a comfortable home. No. I go back years ago, when we lived in a three-room house, when we got up before daylight and worked till after dark to make ends meet.I rarely had more than four hours of sleep. But what I still can't figure out is why I never got tired, never felt better in my life. I guess the answer is, we were fighting for survival, protecting and providing for those we loved. What matters are not the great moments, but the partial victories, the waiting, and even the defeats. It's the journey, not the arrival, that counts.”The letter ended with a personal request: “Boy, on my next birthday, just tell me to wake up and get going, because I will have one less year to do things — and there are ten million things waiting to be done.”Christina Rossetti, an English poet, once said: “Does the road wind uphill all the way? Yes, to the very end.” Today, at 96, my grandfather is still on that long road, climbing.(6) What was the author’s grandfather before he retired? (no more than 5 words)(7) What did the author advise his grandfather to do in his letter? (no more than 10 words)(8) What is the grandfather’s view on life according to his letter back? (no more than 10 words)(9) How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (no more than 10 words)(10) Do you agree with the grandfather’s view on life?

AA bright yellow “M” tells you that it’s a McDonald’s restaurant; we also associate the cheerful theme tune “I’m Lovin’ It” with the famous US fast food.A brand’s music has a similar effect on its customers as its logo. “It appeals directly to the heart, where consumers’ decisions are really made,” wrote Marketing Week.This is probably why companies from around the world have recently focused more on building a “sonic （声音的）identity”.An example is the software company Tencent QQ. Since 2014, this Chinese company has been trying to trademark （申请商标权）its “Di-Di-Di-Di-Di-Di” notification sound. The trademark was f inally approved on Nov 15, which means that Tencent’s “Di-Di-Di-Di-Di-Di” notification sound is now protected by law and can only be used by QQ.Sound and music can also help tell stories. In Game of Thrones （《权力的游戏》） there are so many characters that it is difficult to memorize them all. So, they wrote melodies （旋律） specific to each family. The result is that characters do not only look familiar, but sound familiar too.“I think a huge reason why sound inspires action is that, on an unconscious level, we a re always listening,” Lauren Nagel, executive creative director at Pandora Media, told GeoMarketing. “You can close your eyes, but you can’t shut your ears.”1. What is the influence of a brand’s music, according to Marketing Week？A. It creates a relaxing environment.B. It helps to get customers’ attention.C. It makes the brand better known.D. It encourages consumers to make quick decisions.2. The example of Tencent QQ is mainly used to show ______.A. how companies value their sounds and musicB. the importance of trademark protectionC. the lasting impact of a brand’s musicD. what makes a good notification sound3. How does music help Game of Thrones？A. It helps to create more impressive scenes.B. It tells about the characters’ personalities.C. It suggests that important things are coming.D. It makes the characters easier to remember.BPerhaps no one knows the power of imagination better than Chinese writer Liu Cixin. Until four years ago, Liu worked full-time as a computer engineer at a power plant in Shanxi province. He only wrote science fiction in his spare time. But it was during this time that Liu’s imagination took flight. He did what he might never have the chance to do in real life – wander in space, fight with aliens, and visit planets light-years away.But even with such a powerful imagination, Liu, 55, probably hadn’t expected that he wouldbecome the first Asian to win the Hugo Award, science fiction’s highest prize, in Perhaps neither did he think that former US president Barack Obama would read his novel The Three-Body Problem, nor that on Nov 9 in Washington DC, he would win the 2018 Arthur C. Clarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society. It’s the first time a Chinese writer has ever won the award.In his acceptance speech, Liu said that he owed his imagination to Arthur C. Clarke （1917-2008）, a famous UK sci-fi author. He said that reading Clarke’s 1968 classic novel 2001：A Space Odyssey in the early 1980s had a great effect on him.“My mind opened up like never before. I felt like a narrow river finally seeing the sea,” Liu said. “That night, in my eyes, the starry sky was completely different from the past. For the first time in my life, I was awed （使……敬畏）by the mystery of the universe.”But no matter how far away Liu’s imagination takes him, somehow his novels always stay rational.In The Three-Body Problem, for example, Liu tells a tale of aliens invading Earth. But unlike other alien stories, Liu talks more about relationships between civilizations（文明）, rules of survival, and the meanings of life. And in The Wandering Earth, Liu looks ahead to the day when our solar system comes to an end and humans have to look for a new place to live. However, all his visions and solutions are based on “hard science”. Liu’s works aren’t simply daydreams.4. What do we know about Liu Cixin？A. He became a full-time writer when he was young.B. He dreamed about wandering in space from childhood.C. He is the first Asian to win the Arthur C. Clarke Award.D. He is the first Chinese winner of the Hugo Award.5. Liu Cixin’s words are used mainly to show ______.A. his interest in mysteries of the universeB. his love of reading science fictionC. his confusion when he started writingD. his feeling after reading Clarke’s w ork6. Why did the author mention The Three-Body Problem and The Wandering Earth？A. To compare the different writing styles in the two books.B. To explain how Liu Cixin came up with his ideas.C. To show that Liu Cixin has a powerful imagination.D. To p rove that Liu Cixin’s works relate science to reality.7. What’s the text mainly about？A. Liu Cixin’s achievements and writing style.B. Liu Cixin’s contributions to science fiction.C. How Liu Cixin became a sci-fi writer.D. How Liu Cixin started a new sci-fi style.CGiving generously and receiving gratefully make it easier to live happily with others. Yet, why do we have such difficulty accomplishing these things in our relationships？ I think people refuse to be generous with others because they fear being used.For example, my husband and I have family members who only contact us when they need money. We usually accept their requests, but we rarely receive a “thank you”. Most people would say that my husband and I are being used. But when we give, we shouldn’t be giving for the purpose of getting gratitude. Rather, we should be giving because it’s a good thing to do.Everything that we have, from our ability to wake up each morning to the money in our bank account, is a gift from the world. In return, the world asks us to use these gifts to help others, either by giving them our time or our resources. The good news is that when we live our lives being nice to others, our lives run more smoothly.If you’re generous, yes, some people will use you. But if you practice being generous, most of your relationships will improve. And at the same time, we should remember to receive gratefully. I truly believe that you cannot say “thank you” enough.So often we get lazy about expressing gratitude. Parents can feel unappreciated by their children, and teachers can feel unappreciated by their students. Just because a task is part of someone’s job description doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t thank them for it.Words of appreciation make others feel good about themselves like nothing else. It’s good for us to say “thank you” because we often need to tell ourselves how lucky we are.If you are looking for a way to improve your life, I can give you one：Give generously and receive gratefully.8.

Some of us used to get in trouble for talking in the hallway (过道). Miss Paula says she can’t change the rule that we can’t make noise in the hallway but we can still talk to each other. She is teaching us sign language. I already know how to say “hello” and “how are you” with my hands. Now we love it when we have to walk somewhere and we are always quiet except for a laugh or two.Miss Paula likes everybody even Sam and nobody likes Sam. He never does what he’s told but now he is doing better. Miss Paula says every single one of us is perfect and beautiful just the way we are. I guess that includes Sam.This week at school was really the best ever. I didn’t even get in trouble when I thought I would because I spilled (洒) milk on my homework and had to hand it in when it was still wet. Miss Paula just smiled and asked “What’s this?” So I told her what happened. Miss Paula put it near the window to make it dry.

African grey owners often report that their greys oftentimes talk in context and can understand their people’s emotions. The African grey parrot is not just a top talker — this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives it the name “The Einstein s of the bird world”.The bird is medium-sized, dusty-looking and almost pigeon-like. It has a bright red tail, intelligent orange eyes, and a stunning scalloped (扇形的) pattern to its feathers. Its diet in the wild consists mostly of nuts, seeds, fruits, and leafy matter.At home, African greys need plenty of toys that challenge their intelligence, such as food searching and puzzle toys. Nutri-Berries by Lafeber Company are a perfect choice, which, with a balance of grains, seeds and other nutrients in the shape of a berry, encourages African greys to hold, bite off, and even do other things, just as they do in the wild.African greys seem especially affected by stress and disturbing noise in their environment and can be put more at ease by placing one corner of the cage against a wall compared to in the middle of a room.African grey parrots are more likely to suffer from lack of vitamin A/beta-carotene, and therefore benefit from eating vegetables high in beta-carotene, such as cooked sweet potato and fresh kale. Lack of vitamin D is another concern, especially for greys on a poor diet. Offering a balanced, pill-shaped diet,such as Nutri-Berries, helps prevent vitamin and mineral shortage.23．Why are African grey parrots called “The Einstein s of the bird world”?A．Due to their talking ability.B．Because of their brain size.C．Owing to their rich emotions.D．On account of their intelligence.24．What can “Nutri-Berries” probably be?A．A type of round fruit.B．Puzzle toys for birds.C．A brand of bird food.D．Wild intelligence games.25．What is the characteristic of African grey parrots?A．They are smart and love to have fun.B．They are dusty-looking with blue eyes.C．They seldom get ill despite the lack of vitamin.D．They prefer to stay in the middle of a room.26．Where can we most probably find the text?A．In a travel guide.B．In science fiction.C．On a shopping website.D．In a wildlife magazine.Take a look inside a high school classroom. You will most likely find a teacher at the front of the class and students sitting at their desks. Yet, look closer, and you might notice a familiar scene: many of these students are not paying attention. Instead, they are dozing off (打盹) or even completely asleep.Today, the majority of high school students are not getting enough sleep. This is a serious problem, especially as students are doing more than ever with their time. They come to school early, spend hours listening to teachers and taking tests, then run off to practices and meetings, and come home to be faced with even more work. And the homework load these days is not light; teachers give hours’ worth of homework each night.Most kids need at least nine hours of sleep per night in order to function properly. Yet the period of this nine hours shifts as a child gets older. After puberty (青春期), the body’s internal clock changes so that it is difficult for teens to fall asleep before 11 p.m. So even if a student falls asleep at eleven, they would need to sleep until at least 8 am, to get a full night’s sleep. Considering the time at which most high schools in this country begin, those nine hours are clearly being shortened. Few high schools start after 8 a.m.However, there are schools that have paid attention to this research and pushed backward the start of their school day. In schools where the start time is after 8:30 in the morning, the teachers believe that there has been a real change in their students. They note that the students miss class less, pay more attention in class, perform better in class, and report lower levels of depression. The researchers of these studies say that the results are quite important and that more schools should consider pushing backward their start time of their school day.27．Which of the following would the author agree with?A．High school students must go to bed before 10 p.m.B．High schools should begin their school day at a later time.C．Most schools should push forward the start of their school day.D．Kids should shorten their sleep time gradually as they grow older.28．The second paragraph mainly discusses ________.A．why high school students should get more sleepB．what’s life like for college students at presentC．why high school students feel sleepy in the classroomD．how to lighten high school students’ homework load29．The underlined word “shifts” probably means “________”.A．arrives B．reduces C．increases D．changes 30．How do the teachers probably feel about the results of pushing backward the start of their school day?A．Disappointed.B．Satisfied.C．Puzzled.D．Surprised.三、完形填空I come from a long line of farmers.

I have for as long as I can remember. I always had ardour in reading, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.As I became a mother, the library took on an added meaning. I had several children and books were our main source of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them. It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books. Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation.As a novelist, I've found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can't afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven (避风港) for readers and writers. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy (盗版行为) and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.46．What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 probably mean?
