Having served as a soldier and politician, he is often considered among the greatest of Britons. While his heroic stand against the Nazis is well know, there are still a few facts about the popular politician that might surprise you.His CigarsThe classic image of Winston Churchill includes a giant cigar stuck between his lips. Churchill developed his love of cigars as a young man, when he traveled to Cuba. For he rest of his life, he smoked eight or nine cigars every day. However, he almost never took a puff(吸,抽), preferring to chew on the end until it went out, then relight it and start again. To prevent the cigar becoming soggy (湿软的), Churchill invented the “bellybando”, a strip of brown paper which could be glued around the end.At any given time, Churchill had 3,000 to 4,000 cigars in his house, mostly his favorite Romeo & Juliet brand. On one occasion, the president of Cuba presented Churchill with 2,400 top-quality cigars, although his security team insisted one cigar from each box be sent off andtested for poison. Perhaps the story that best shows his love of cigars occurred during World War II, when he had a special oxygen mask designed so that he could still smoke his cigar on a high-altitude flight.His Black DogThroughout his life, Churchill probably suffered from depression, which he called his “black dog”. At times, his depression was so severe that he didn‟t like standing close to a passing train or looking at the ocean from a ship because he feared that he would commit suicide.When he was depressed, Churchill would almost spend a great deal of time in bed and lose his ability to concentrate. However, when not depressed, Churchill was full of energy, usually working and talking until the early hours of the morning. He often described how “all the colors come back into the picture”.4. Why did Churchill‟s security team insist on checking the cigars?A. To test if they were safe for Churchill.B. To see if they were of the best quality.C. To make sure they were Churchill‟s favorite.D. To guarantee they were not out of date.5. Which of the following best shows Churchill‟s love of cigars?A. He fell in love with cigars at a young age.B .He smoked many cigars every day.C. He invented the “bellybando”.D. He had an oxygen mask specially designed for smoking.6. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A. Churchill became energetic again.B. Churchill remained depressed.C. Churchill drew colorful pictures.D. Churchill liked to talk about colors.7. What is probably the best title of the passage?A. Achievements of ChurchillB. Anecdotes about ChurchillC. Personalities of ChurchillD. Hobbies of ChurchillCIf you‟re ever reading a book or watching a movie and get the clear feeling that you‟ve come across the story before-or even better, can predict exactly what‟s going to happen next—there could be a good reason for that.Researchers from the Computational Story Laboratory at the University of Vermont studied the complete text of some 1,737 fiction works available on Project Gutenberg, an online collection of more than 50,000 digital books in the public area. They discovered that English literature consist of just six kinds of emotional arcs(情感弧线)that make up nearly all of the most well-known stories. By analyzing the sentiment(情感)of language used in these texts, the researchers were able to show the emotional ups and downs for the stories as a whole. They discovered that negative words like “poverty”, “dead”, and “punishment” dragged the emotion down, while positive terms like “love”, “peace”, and “friend” brought it up.According to the researchers, those six core emotional arcs are:● “Rags to riches” (An ongoing emotional rise)● “Tragedy, or riches to rags” (An ongoing emotional fall0● “Man in a hole” (a fall followed by a rise)● “Icarus” (A rise followed by a fall)● “Cinderella” (Rise-fall-rise)● “Oedipus” (Fall-rise-fall)Interestingly, based on download statistics from Project Gutenberg, the researchers say the most popular stories are ones that use more complex emotional arcs, with the Cinderella and Oedipus arcs registering the most downloads. Also popular are works that combine these core arcs together in new ways within one story, such as two “Man in a hole” arcs stuck together, or the “Cinderella” are coupled with a tragic ending.8. Readers often feel familiar when reading a new story because stories have similar_______.A. beginningsB. endingsC. charactersD. emotional arcs9. How did researchers carry out their study?A. By conducting surveys among readers.B. By reading books borrowed from libraries.C. By analyzing works from an online collection.D. By interviewing authors of the well-known stories.10. Which set of words may drag emotion down?A. Hope, fortune and riches.B. Disease, murder and war.C. Smile, health and beauty.D. Cold, earthquake and spring.11. According to the last paragraph, which kind of works are most popular among readers?A. Works with an ongoing emotional rise.B. Works with an ongoing emotional fall.C. Works with a rise followed by a fall.D. Works with more than one rise and fall.DGiving Many Poppins‟s magic umbrella some serious competition is the all high-tech “Oombrella”—not only can it predict the weather, it‟s also impossible to lose. The smart umbrella syncs(同步进行) with a smartphone app, sending users updates about weather conditions 30 minutes in advance, and reminders if they happen to leave the device behind. And here‟s the added bonus—it won‟t ever flip inside-out.Designed by French company Wezzoo, the rainbow-colored umbrella comes in two versions —classic and modern. The classic is 3.1-ft long with a curved handle, while the modern version is 0.8-ft long with a straight handle. The company describes the device as a …portable weather station‟, made of a reflective surface with built in sensors that record real-time data such as light, humidity, pressure, and temperature. The umbrella collects and processes this data as well as information from a social media community before sending out alerts about when it‟s going to start raining.And if the user happens to accidentally forget it at home on a potentially rainy day, or leaves it in a restaurant, similar alerts will be sent out using GPS technology to make sure you don‟t lose it.“We wanted to make this umbrella unforgettable in terms of design, too,” explains Alexandre, of Escabo design studio. “We developed an exclusive material. It makes you feel you are holding an aurora borealis(北极光) in your hands. It has effects that are amazing with the light and always changing. It really makes the umbrella special.” The …capsule‟ that integrates all the technology, making the umbrella smart, is located in the handle.The umbrella is all set to hit global online and physical stores this fall. According to a company spokesperson, it will retail at €79 ($86), but the early bird price on Kickstarter is €59 ($64). For those who are rather attached to their current umbrellas, the company will also releasean …Oombrella capsule‟ that can transform any umbrella into a smart device. Now, if only it could make us fly like Mary Poppins!12. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us about Oombrella?A. Its special designB. Its working principleC. Its functionsD. Its structure13. Which of the following best shows how Oombrella works?A. collect—process—record—predictB. process—record—collect—predictC. record—collect—process—predictD. record—process—collect—predict14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Oombrella is already on sale.B. Early buyers of Oombrella will save money.C. It‟s impossible to turn an ordinary umbrella into a smart one.D. Oombrella is a magic device that can make us fly.15. What‟s the purpose of the author writing the passage?A. To introduce readers a new type of umbrella.B. To show readers how to predict the weather.C. To remind readers to take an umbrella at any time.D. To persuade readers to buy the high-tech umbrella.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。

We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let’s look at the words about animals and plants。

Most expressions in Chinese about the dog,for example,”a homeless dog”, ”a mad dog","a running dog”and”a dog catching a mouse”,have negative meanings。

But in western countries,dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans。

In English,peopleuse the dog to describe positive actions. For example,”you are a lucky dog”means you are a lucky person。

And "every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person’s serious illness,they say"sick as a dog”。

第一部分听力(略)(30分)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AThere is an old Chinese tale about a woman whose only son died. In her grief (悲痛), she went to the holy man (圣人) and asked, “What magical things do you have to bring my son back to life?”Instead of sending her away or saying a few words to comfort her, the holy man said to her, “Bring me a mustard (芥菜) seed from a home that has never known sorrow. We will use it to drive the sorrow out of your life.” The woman went off at once in search of that magical seed.She first came to a beautiful castle, knocked at the door, and said, “I am looking for a home that has never known sorrow. Is this such a place? It is very important to me.”They told her, “You’ve certainly come to the wrong place.” And then they began to describe all the bad things that had recently happened to them.The woman said to herself, “Who is better able to help these unfortunate people than I?” So she stayed to comfort them, and then went on in search of a home that had never known sorrow. But wherever she turned, in hotels or in other places, she found one tale after another of sadness and misfortune.The woman became so busy helping others to deal with their sorrows that she finally let go of her own. She would later come to understand that it was the search for the magical mustard seed that drove away her suffering.1. Leaving the holy man, the woman .A. was full of hopeB. was filled with sadnessC. was determined to try againD. became discouraged2. The “magical seed” refers to “”.A. a cure for sorrowB. being open to othersC. showing respect to othersD. a home that has never known sorrow3. We can learn from the passage that .A. the holy man was playing a trick on the womanB. the woman didn’t go to the right place for the seedC. a mustard seed would bring the woman’s son back to lifeD. the woman was curing herself of sorrow while looking for the seed4. What does the author want to tell us by writing this passage?A. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.B. Time passed cannot be called back again.C. You can’t feel happy unless comparing with others.D. You can’t expect to know the result until you have tried.Bhe world to kids and inspire a sense of understanding. It is for ages 3-6.5. Whom would the magazine Zootles most probably attract?A. Young kids who like simple rhymes.B. Young kids who are fond of anim als.C. Children who love interesting stories.D.

There are two steps you can take to help kids to enjoy reading. Firstly you need to find something they actually want to read. Then, you need to get them to read school books, but this is not the place to start.So how do you choose something for your kids to read? You have to find out what your kids enjoy. It doesn’t matter what you buy, so long as your kids will find it interesting. A book given as a reward (奖励) will often be more enjoyed by kids. If your kids have just done well at something, this is a good time to give them a new book.The second thing you need to consider is where your kids are going to read. I strongly suggest creating a “reading space” in their room and also a time for them to read on their own, ideally just before bed time.There is another way to really speed up your kids’ reading. It is to get themwriting. When you set up their “reading space”, be sure to give them a diary and a pen. Just by writing a few sentences each day they will improve their skills.So to successfully get your kids to enjoy reading you need to create them a space in which they read, give them something fun to read, and improve their skills through writing. Before you know it, their abilities will have moved forward and you will be amazed at their progress. Of course, remember all the time to reward good reading with more books.9. The author wrote this passage to .A. show us how to speed up our readingB. tell us the benefits of reading for kidsC. give us some tips on how to get kids to enjoy readingD. give us examples of how to choose proper books for kids10. Whom is this passage intended for?A. Teachers.B. Kids.C. Parents.D. Workers.11. Which of the following methods will most probably get kids to value their books?A. Giving them books as a reward.B. Reading books together w ith them.C. Choosing books they like.D. Giving them a reading space.DResearchers found that a “name pronunciation effect” played an imp ortant role in how people were perceived (感知) by others. They concluded that the easier a person’s name was to say, the better their success was in the workplace and the quicker career advancement (提升) they enjoyed. Their study also found that a simple name improved people’s ability to make new friends.Dr. Simon Laham, who led the study, said people with simple names were generally judged more positively (积极地). “The effect is not because of the length of a name or how foreign-sounding or unusual it is, bu t rather how easy it is to pronounce,” he said.In their study the team studied the way names can influence a person’s impressions and decision making. They looked at lots of names of 500 university student volunteers from British, Asian, and European backgrounds and a field of 500 lawyers in America.The team found that people with more pronounceable names were more likely to achieve success. They found that American lawyers with easier sounding names got career advancement faster within their law firms. Names including Sherman, Jenkins, Benson, and Angus ranked among the easiest to pronounce, while Farquharson and Loughnane and European names such as Leszczynska were found to be difficult to pronounce. They concluded that a simple name was the key to success.Dr. Laham said the results could have important implications (意义) for how managers dealt with bias (偏见). “It’s important to treat the biases that shape our choices and judgments about others,” he said. “It may help remove bias, leading to fairer, mor e objective treatment of others.”12. What factor of a name plays the key role in deciding its effect?A. The length of the name.B. The pronunciation of the name.C. The meaning of the name.D. Whether the name is unusual or not.13. The underlined pa rt “pronounceable names” in Para. 3 refers to names that .A. can be spelled easilyB. can’t be pronounced easilyC. can be pronounced without difficultyD. sound like foreign names14. Which of the following would Dr. Laham most probably agree with?A. People should use simple names to avoid biases.B. Foreign names are considered to be hard to pronounce.C. The name effect can be found only in English-speaking countries.D. The study can help people treat those with hard-to-say names more fairly.15. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Having an easy-to-say name will help you get quicker career advancement.B. People with hard-to-say names should struggle for fairer treatment.C. People with hard-to-say names should avoid unfair treatment from others.D. The importance of changing hard-to-say names to easy-to-say ones.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。

内蒙古北京八中乌兰察布分校2017-2018学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题第I卷(选择题,共70分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节:(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

ASix people are talking about the newly-built garden on the roof of their building.Jasmine: I loved the idea when Wilber first told me about it. We had lots of meetings with our neighbors, trying to make them understand why it’s good to build a garden on the roof. Now people love coming here, and we have made a lot of friends!Wilber: The whole thing wasn’t easy at first. But Jasmine helped a lot. And she was really good at making people happy to donate (捐赠) money for the roof garden.David: My kids love going up there. They sit there watching butterflies and birds. The roof garden brings them closer to nature.Samuel: You want something green? Visit the park! It’s only one block away! After the roof garden was built, small insects started flying into my room! And the kids leave mud on the stairs when they come down from the roof!Rosie: Our building is now cooler in the summer. My baby sleeps well even on hot summer days!Flora: Guess where these tomatoes are from! Not from the supermarket. They’re from our roof! It’s wonderful, isn’t?1. Who dislikes the roof garden?A. Jasmine.B. Rosie.C. Samuel.D. Flora.2. What does Wilber tell us?A. Jasmine helped to get the money.B. Tomatoes grew well on the roof.C. Children always make stairs dirty.D. There are birds in the roof garden.3. What can be inferred from the interview?A. Babies like sleeping in the roof garden.B. Most of the speakers love the roof garden.C. The roof tomatoes sell well in the supermarket.D. David first came up with the idea of a roof garden.BWhen you need to see a doctor, surely you will want to see a good one. But there is one important thing you may never have thought about: Has your doctor rested enough?Doctors in our country often have to work 34 hours or longer without sleep. Most of them work 104 hours a week, and some even 150. (There are only 168 hours a week!) One report said that a doctor who works such long hours cannot think more clearly than a drunk driver. Another found that doctors who sleep 5.8 fewer hours than the week before might make 22% more serious mistakes. Surely no one wants to get in a car that is driven by a drunk driver. So, how safe would you feel when you are under the care of a tired doctor?Sadly this problem has been around for a long time. There are no laws about it yet and hospital bosses don’t look like they care either. And that is why we doctors are asking you to join us on the street this Sunday. Fight together with us on the street so we can fight better for your life in the hospital.Time: 1 p. m. July 15 Place: City Hospital Square4. How long do doctors often have to work per week in the country?A. 34 hours.B. 104 hours.C. 150 hours.D. 168 hours.5. What does the underlined word “Another” in Paragrap h 2 refer to?A. A country.B. A doctor.C. A report.D. A driver.6. Why does the writer compare a tired doctor with a drunk driver?A. To find out who can think more clearly.B. To give an example of a common disease.C. To show who can work longer without sleep.D. To give the reader a clear idea of the danger.7. What is the purpose of the text?A. To warn doctors not to work too long.B. To get support for the fight for doctors.C. To tell people how to find a good doctor.D. To call for a law against drunk driving.CImagine the tallest building in the United States. Fill that giant building 44 times with rotten fruits and vegetables. Now you know how much food Americans waste every year.It is hard to believe, right? About 133 billio n pounds of food get thrown away. That’s one-third of all the food we produce. And a lot of it is thrown away for one simple reason: It’s ugly.The problem is that nature isn’t perfect. Apples can get scarred (留下疤痕) by storms. Cucumbers grow in C shapes. Carrots change into unusual fork-like forms. Watermelons get too big to fit on a refrigerator shelf. These crazy-looking fruits and vegetables may taste great. But most grocery stores refuse to sell them. Store owners say people judge food by how it looks. No one wants a tomato that looks like a two-headed monster. But what if you could buy that tomato for half-price?A new movement is trying to make people see the “beauty” in ugly food. Some stores are selling ugly produce. It tastes the same. And you pay l ess for it because the food doesn’t look perfect.Usually, the stores find a nicer word than “ugly”. A Canadian chain uses “naturally imperfect”. In some US stores, it’s “misfit produce”. Whatever you call it, ugly food helps many people. Farmers get paid for food they were going to have to throw away. Shoppers get cheaper fruits and vegetables. The ugly-food movement will also help some of the 44 million Americans who don’t have enough to eat. Many groups give the ugly produce to hungry people.So really, who cares if that carrot looks a little… ugly?8. Why are lots of fruits and vegetables thrown away in the US?A. Because they don’t look nice.B. Because they have gone bad.C. Because they don’t taste good.D. Because they are badly polluted.9. What is the 5th paragraph mainly about?A. The stores selling ugly food.B. The better names for ugly food.C. The number of hungry Americans.D. The benefits of the ugly-food movement.10. What does the mark “…” in the last paragr aph suggest?A. The author would like to buy ugly carrots.B. No one would care if a carrot looks a little ugly.C. The author does not quite like the word “ugly”.D. Nobody really wants to buy carrots that look ugly.DFeet help us walk, run, dance, and jump. The words feet and foot are also used in everyday speech.To be under someone’s feet means to be troublesome. In other words, you are standing too close to someone and are getting in their way. Some adults criticize (批评) children for being under foot.Speaking of children, if someone says their home will soon have the pitter-patter of tiny feet, it means the family is expecting a baby!Now, people who are active do not let grass grow under their feet. They are never in one place for very long. People who can think and take action at the same time are said to be able to think on their feet.Some people appear to have it all. They have money, a good education, good looks, a great family and a large circle of friends. You could say they have the world at their feet. This means whatever they want seems to be there for them.People who have both feet firmly on the ground are realistic and practical. They are not dreamy. You might say such a person is well grounded. If you are a bad dancer, you might be described as having two left feet. To dance well, it is better to have a right foot and a left foot.Sam loves skiing. He thinks that it would be fun to own a ski resort (滑雪场) high in the mountains. But he knows nothing about running a business. So, he decides to get his feet wet. In other words, he wants to get used to a new situation.He joins an organization for resort owners and attends their meetings. He travels to ski areas all over the United States. This helps Sam get his foot in the door. Having a foot in the door is a starting point. This expression comes from people selling things door-to-door. They would block the door with their foot so people couldn’t close the door on them.11. What would you say to someone who is “under your feet”?A. Oh, I’m terr ibly sorry.B. Take off your feet!C. Sorry for the trouble.D. Excuse me, you are in the way.12. Which of the following describes people who keep moving about?A. They are always under foot.B. They can think on their feet.C. They have the pitter-patter of tiny feet.D. They never let grass grow under their feet.13. What should you try to avoid if you want to succeed in doing something?A. Having two left feet.B.
