He also has a computer, a TV and three video-game consoles (控制台) in his room.

According to a recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation, kids aged 8 to18 are spending more time than ever before using electronic devices. How much time?

Today, nearly seven out of ten kids have cell phones. Just five years ago, it was four out of ten.Often, kids multitask, or use more than one device at a time. " If you’ve got a chance to do something on your computer and take a phone call and have the TV on in the background, why not?" media expert Cheryl Olson says.Most experts agree technology has much to offer kids. But some worry the kids could be missing out on other activities like playing outside or hanging out with friends. " It' s a matter of balance," says Olson." You’ve got to work on it. "Multitasking while doing homework is another concern. Some kids listen to music, watch TV or use the phone while doing their homework. "It' s important to make sure that you can stop and concentrate on one thing deeply, " says Rideout.With new and exciting devices hitting stores every year, keeping technology use in check ismore important than ever. " Kids should try," adds Rideout. " But parents might have to step in sometimes. "1. Why do children spend more time in using electronic devices?A.

They talk with the help of gestures (手势).People from other countries often have to do it if they don’t know your language.Here is a story. An American was once having his holiday in Italy, but he could not speak Italian. One day he went to a restaurant and sat down at a table.

He was very hungry now and looked sad. He was just going to leave the restaurant when another man came in. When this man saw the waiter, he put his hands on his stomach(胃).

Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is only 20 years old. She is a world famous film star with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA. At her young age, she can look after her family financially (经济上) all her life. This year is a big year for Britney. She is now on a 31-day tour of the US and every concert is a sell-out. That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 people every time. It’s a tiring schedule but brings her a lot. When touring, she goes to bed around 1 a.m. and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m. the next day. Her philosophy (人生观) is to take care of the body and relax but always make sure you work hard and have fun.Spears is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting. She made an appearance in “Austin Power 3” this year and she i s filming a teenage light play that will come out in March 2020. In this movie, she has a starring role.For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (热心的) about it all. If her movies are successful, her money in the bank is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she does it for the love, not the money, as she herself tells the reporters .32.

Suddenly, a loud noise wakes him up. Naturally, Brandon reaches for his cell phone. The message becomes clear: "R U awake?"Brandon' s use of technology doesn' t stop there. He also has a computer, a TV and three video-game consoles (控制台 ) in his room. With so many choices, it' s no surprise that when he isn' t at school, he spends nearly every waking minute using one or more of these devices. Brandon is hardly alone.

Cheryl Olson is not surprised about kids' increasing use of mobile devices23.Which of the following is an example of multitasking according to the passage?A. Playing video games on the Internet.B.

It’s hard to cling to that belief today. Recent research has shown that there are biological differences between boys and girls. Understanding these differences is important in raising and educating children. For example, girls are born with more sensitive hearing than boys, and the difference increases as kids grow up. So when a grown man speaks to a girl in what he thinks is a normal voice, she may hear it as yelling. Conversely (反过来), boys who appear to be inattentive in class may just be sitting too far away too hear the teacher.Likewise, girls are better in their expression of feelings. Studies reveal that negative emotions are seated in an area of the brain called the amygdala. Girls develop all early connection between this area and the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层), enabling them to talk about their feelings. In boys these links develop later. So if you ask a troubled adolescent boy to tell you what his feelings are, he often cannot say much.Dr. Sax, an advocate of single-sex education, points out that keeping boys and girls separate in the classroom has yielded striking educational, social, and interpersonal benefits. Therefore, parents and teachers should try to recognize, understand, and make use of the biological differences that make a girl a girl, and a boy a boy.32.What is the main idea of the passage?A.

河南省周口市中英文学校2021届高三上学期第一次月考英语试题第一部分:听力(共两节,满分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,共30分)阅读下面短文,从每篇短文后各个小题后所给的A,B,C,D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
AIt's 10:30 pm, and 11-year-old Brandon Blanco is sound asleep at home. Suddenly, a loud noise wakes him up. Naturally, Brandon reaches for his cell phone. The message becomes clear: "R U awake?"Brandon' s use of technology doesn' t stop there. He also has a computer, a TV and three video-game consoles (控制台) in his room. With so many choices, it' s no surprise that when he isn' t at school, he spends nearly every waking minute using one or more of these devices. Brandon is hardly alone. According to a recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation, kids aged 8 to18 are spending more time than ever before using electronic devices. How much time? More than seven and a half hours a day on average, the study found.The jump is the result of a huge explosion in mobile devices, says Victoria Rideout, the lead author of the study. Today, nearly seven out of ten kids have cell phones. Just five years ago, it was four out of ten.Often, kids multitask, or use more than one device at a time. " If you’ve got a chance to do something on your computer and take a phone call and have the TV on in the background, why not?" media expert Cheryl Olson says.Most experts agree technology has much to offer kids. But some worry the kids could be missing out on other activities like playing outside or hanging out with friends. " It' s a matter of balance," says Olson." You’ve got to work on it. "Multitasking while doing homework is another concern. Some kids listen to music, watch TV or use the phone while doing their homework. "It' s important to make sure that you can stop and concentrate on one thing deeply, " says Rideout.With new and exciting devices hitting stores every year, keeping technology use in check is more important than ever. " Kids should try," adds Rideout. " But parents might have to step in sometimes. "21.Why do children spend more time in using electronic devices?A. Because electronic devices are more exciting than before.B. Because more electronic devices are available to them.C. Because they have less other activities.D. Because they have less homework to do.22.It is known from the passage that ____.A. Brandon Blanco feels very annoyed about his late-night textB. the teenagers using mobile devices have increased by 30% in the past five yearsC. most experts think teenagers should not use electronic devices for their studiesD. Cheryl Olson is not surprised about kids' increasing use of mobile devices23.Which of the following is an example of multitasking according to the passage?A. Playing video games on the Internet.B. Talking on the phone while staying with others.C. Watching TV while using the computer.D. Listening to music while relaxing.24.The underlined phrase "in check" in the last paragraph can be replaced by "____".A. in orderB. in controlC. in storeD. in sightBIt is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible.Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel.It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter altogether.Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too.It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving.On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting.A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm so necessary in modern traffic condition.But such behaviors ofpoliteness are by no means enough.Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous.Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in time.The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies (奶奶).An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings.Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive.Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users.It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.25.

河南省周口市中英文学校2020-2021学年高二上学期第一次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择This is a true story from Guyana.One day,a boy took a piece of paper from a box.He made a paper ball and pushed it into his nose.He couldn’t get it out.He ran crying to his mother.His mother couldn’t get the paper out,either.A week later,the paper was still in the boy’s nose.His nose began to have a bad smell.So his mother took the boy to a hospital.The doctor looked up at the child’s nose,but she co uldn’t get the paper out.She said she had to cut the boy’s nose to get the paper out.The boy’s mother came home looking sad.She didn’t want her child to have his nose cut.The next day she took the boy to her friend Sidney who lived in a house with an old lady called May.May wanted to see the child,so the child let her look up his nose.“Yes,I can see it,” May said.“It will be out soon.”As she spoke,she shook some black pepper (胡椒粉)on the child’s nose.The child gave a mighty sneeze and the paper flew out.His mother was surprised.May told his mother to take the boy to the seaside for a swim,for the salt water would go up his nose and stop the bad smell.So the lucky boy didn’t have to go to the hospital to have his nose cut.1.After the boy pushed a paper ball into his nose,____.A.he took it outB.his mother took it outC.he tried to take it out but failedD.he did nothing but cry2.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The doctor helped to take the paper ball out of the boy’s nose.B.The boy had to have his nose cut at last.C.The boy’s mother found some black pepper to solve the problem.D.May succeeded in taking the paper out.3.The boy should be taken to the seaside for a swim because ____.A.he needed to learn to swim.B.the sea water would wash out the paper ball.C.the sea water would stop the bad smell of his nose.D.he needed a rest.Tom walked into a shop .

"I had guessed they were worth(值) at least five dollars.""No," said the man, "they aren't worth a cent more than two dollars.""Well," said Tom, taking two dollars out of his pocket. "Here's your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price (标价)of them was six dollars and a half.

Then they see these people get to a doctor.The police go around town to see that everything is all right. They get around town in many ways. Some of them walk or go by car. In some big cities,some of the police ride on horses. It is strange to see these animals in the street.As they go around town,the police help people. Sometimes they find lost children.

We can also do it in many other ways, too. Sometimes we move our heads up and down whenwe want to say “yes”, and we shake (摇晃)our heads when we want to say “no ”. Some people can’t hear or speak. They talk wi th the help of gestures(手势).People from other countries often have to do it if they don’t know your language.Here is a story. An American was once having his holiday in Italy, but he could not speak Italian. One day he went to a restaurant and sat down at a table. When the waiter came, the American opened his mouth, put his fingers in it and took them out again. In this way he wanted to say “Bring me something to eat”. The waiter soon brought him a cup of tea. The American shook his head and the waiter und erstood that he didn’t want tea. So he took it away and brought him a glass of milk. The American shook his head again. He was very hungry now and looked sad. He was just going to leave the restaurant when another man came in. When this man saw the waiter, he put his hands on his stomach(胃). In a few minutes there was a large plate of bread and meat on the table in front of him.12.Sometimes people move their heads when they want to say “yes”.A.right and left B.fast and slowC.up and down D.hard and easy13.If people want to say ,they may shake their heads.A.“no”B.“yes”C.“words”D.“OK”14.If you can,t ,you may talk with the help of gestures.A.write and read B.hear and speakC.say or sing D.go or come15.The American wanted .A.to drink a cup of tea B.to go to bedC.to talk with the waiter D.to have some food二、七选五Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” 16.According to recent studies, the answer is a big YES, if the air quality in your camping area is good.17.If the air you’re breathing is clean—which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities—then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles(肌肉) and your brain.Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing(治愈). 18.In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood(情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 19.It gives us a great feeling of peace.20.While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D . To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin—put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D .A.Fresh air cleans our lungs.B.So what are you waiting for?C.Being in nature refreshes us.D.Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.E.But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?F.Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.G.All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.三、完形填空There is a holiday next week and I can’t decide what to do.I have a lot of work to do 21 and this would be a good chance(机会)22 .
