2015~2016学年度第二学期模块测试高一英语第Ⅰ卷客观卷（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）AChristmas Eve was tomorrow. I hoped one of the packages that held a camera had already been placed under the Christmas tree. It was the only thing I wanted. I had been dropping hints to my parents. I love taking photos. My bedroom walls are covered with photos I had taken with my mom’s old camera. I’m always trying to capture (捕捉) those perfect moments in which you can hear the laughter or touch the beautiful scene, but my camera has always seemed to fall short.I knew Mom had put a few presents under the tree this morning, so I went on a hunt in my mom’s room. I opened the door and found my Christmas present was lying unwrapped on the floor — a big pink cat. I felt so disappointed.Mom seemed to notice that, and she tried to cheer me up. ―Stacy, I got your present today. I am so excited to surprise you!‖ ―I can’t wait,‖ I said.The next day I couldn’t wait any longer. I needed to tell her.―Mom, may I talk to you for a second?‖―Sure, dear. What do you need to talk about?‖ she asked.And so it came — how upset I was that I was getting a cat.―Stacy, that cat is for your sister Julia!‖ she said with a smile.―Then what am I getting?‖ I asked.She just smiled. ―You’ll have to wait and see.‖The next morning, I happily got into the living room and sat next to the tree. I pulled out the box with my name on it and opened the wrapping paper to find ...My camera! ―Thank you!‖ I said to both Dad and Mom.Dad picked up the camera and took a picture of Julia, Mom and me. It has become one of my favorite pictures. Just on that Christmas morning, I took lots of photos with my camera —my little sister making a face, my parents giving me a soft smile — and all of these photos have come to mean one thing to me: love.1. The underlined phrase ―dropping hints‖ in Paragraph 1 means _____.A. talking oftenB. suggesting indirectlyC. sending presentsD. taking pictures2. Why did Stacy feel disappointed at first?A. Her mother couldn’t understand her at all.B. Her mother didn’t buy her any Christmas gift.C. She didn’t find her present in her mom’s room.D. She mistook her sister’s Christmas gi ft for hers.3. We can infer from the passage that _____.A. her mother bought Stacy a camera after discovering her disappointmentB. Stacy finally got her gift on Christmas EveC. Stacy thought it’s OK to have an old cameraD. her mother knew what gift Stacy wanted for Christmas4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. A Christmas gift as wished.B. Love is more important than gifts.C. A wonderful Christmas.D. Love can not be bought.BWhat are you feeling right now as you start to read this? Are you curious? Hoping that you’ll learn something about yourself? Bored because this is something you have to do for school and you’re not really into it —or happy because it’s a school project you enjoy? Perhaps you’re attracted by something else, like feeling excited about your weekend plans or sad because you just went through a breakup.Emotions like these are part of human nature. They give us information about what we’re experiencing and help us know how to react. We sense our emotions from the time we’re babies. Young children react to their emotions with facial expressions or with actions like laughing orcrying. They feel and show emotions, but they don’t yet have the ability to name the emotion or say why they feel that way.As we grow up, we become more skilled in understanding emotions. Instead of just reacting like little kids do, we can identify（定义）what we feel and put it into words. With time and practice, we get better at knowing what we are feeling and why. This skill is called emotional awareness.Emotional awareness helps us know what we need and want, or don’t want! It helps us build better relationships. That’s because being aware of our emotions can help us talk about feelings more clearly, avoid or settle conflicts（冲突）better, and move past difficult feelings more easily.Some people are naturally more in touch with their emotions than others. The good news is that everyone can be more aware of their emotions. It just takes pract ice. But it’s worth the effort.Emotional awareness is the first step toward building emotional intelligence, a skill that can help people succeed in life.5. How do young children react to emotions?A. With laughter and shouts.B. With signs and expressions.C. With facial expressions and actions.D. With gestures of different kinds.6. From the passage we know that emotional awareness actually _________.A. enables us to live in society more easilyB. lets people understand others betterC. brings about conflicts between peopleD. smooths away difficulties in our life7. Where is the passage probably taken from?A. A science fiction.B. An advertisement.C. A science magazine.D. A television show.CEnglish is fast becoming the language of science around the world, but what is its future among everyday speakers? One expert points out that the percentage(比率) of native English speakers is declining(降低) while the languages of other rapidly growing regions are being spoken by increasing numbers of people. But English will continue to remain widespread and important.However, British language scholar David Graddol says English will probably drop in dominance(主导) by the middle of this century to rank after Chinese, about equally with Arabic, Hindi, and Urdu. ―The number of people speaking English as a first language continues to rise, but it isn’t rising nearly as fast as the numbers of many other languages around the world, simply because the main population group has been largely in the less developed countries where languages other than English have been spoken,‖ he says.In a recent article in the journal Science, Mr. Graddol noted that three languages that are not near the top of the list of the most widely spoken now might be there soon. These are Bengali, Tamil, and Malay, spoken in south and southeast Asia.David Crystal, the author of the Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language, says about 1.5 billion of the world’s six billion people speak it as a second language compared to the 400 million native speakers. But another expert on the English language says Mr. Graddol underestimates (低估) the future of its dominance. ―All the evidence suggests that the English language snowball is rolling down a hill and is getting faster, but nobody quite knows what’s going to happen because no language has been in this position before.‖ he said.8．In David Graddol’ s opinion, English will _______.A．remain widespread and importantB．be more important than any other languageC．lose its dominant positionD．die away in the near future9．The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that ______.A．more and more language users will choose EnglishB．the English language snowball is rolling down faster than any time in the pastC．English language will soon drop in dominanceD．snowballs will roll down faster than language balls10．How many experts does the passage mention who express their ideas about the future of English?A．2. B．3. C．4. D．5.11．What should be the best title for the passage?A．English Remaining in the Dominant PositionB．The Future of English? Who Knows?C．Opinions from Different ExpertsD．The English Language Snowball Rolling DownDInternational students are allowed to work for the university they study at or for a business at the school. But the business must directly provide a service for students. You could work at the bookstore, for example, but not for a company that is building something at the school. Also, a foreign student cannot take the place of an American in a job.International students can work 20 hours a week while having classes; more during school breaks. You can work until you finish your studies.International students normally cannot take a job that has nothing to do with their school. But the government may give permission if students are suddenly faced with difficulties. Examples include large medical bills, the shortage of financial (财政上的) aid or an unexpected change in the financial support.Students must also meet other conditions (条件). They must have studied at their American school for at least one year. Students must ask for permission again after a year if they want to continue an off-campus (校外的) job.International students who will be studying at graduate school can apply (申请) for some jobs before they come to the United States. A good example is a university job like a teaching or research assistant.Some schools pay their assistants. Others provide free education in return. Many do both. Graduate assistants might teach, give tests, grade work, help with research and clean the offices. Many universities now provide language training for foreign teaching assistants to help them improve their English. Some schools ask foreign students to pass an English speaking test before they are allowed to teach.International student offices at schools have to provide information on students each term for the Department of Homeland Security. Students who violate visa (签证) rules —for example, by working off-campus without permission —could be sent home.12. What can we learn according to the passage?A. All the international students can work for large companies.B. International students are able to work whenever they like.C. International students may be allowed to work outside the school when having financial trouble.D. International students must have studied at their American school for less than a year to get ajob.13. We may infer from the passage that ____.A. international students could apply for some jobs before coming to the USB. all the schools pay their assistants and provide free education for themC. international students cannot take their jobs before having language trainingD. international students normally are not completely free to choose their jobs14. The under lined word ―violate‖ in the last paragraph probably means ____.A. ask forB. go againstC. forgetD. obey15. What is the passage mainly about?A. The rules about getting a job while studying in the US for international students.B. The reason why international students like studying in the United States.C. What international students should do while working in the United States.D. How international students could find jobs while studying in the US.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。

AQuiet classes, endless exams and long hours at school …This might sound like the daily life of many Chinese highschool students. But a group of 50 Grade 9 students fromBohunt School in Hampshire, UK, decided to try out Chineseschools for over a four-week period.Five Chinese teachers were sent to a UK school to teach the British students in a Chinese style. The Chinese teache rs came in with high expectations, but they quickly found discipline (纪律) was their biggest challenge. “When I walked into the classroom, some students were chatting, some students were eating, and somebody was even putting make-up on her face.I had to control myself, or I would have gone crazy,” said one of t he teachers Li Aiyun.The British students had complaints too. Many of them found the classes boring. “It’s all about repetition(重复) and copying notes from the board,” one student said.The students finally took a test, and the Chinese class scored better than other classes. Chinese teachers were happy, but they owed (把……归功于) it to the students for working hard. They also realized their teaching style was “a bit too rigid (死板的)”. “It’s very hard to say which education system is better. But I think we can learn fro m each other,” said Li Aiyun.Education should be well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a person. It is not only to teach him/her to speak, read and write, but also to develop his/her creative thinking and other abilities. Though the education systems are so different between Britain and China, we agree that getting education is the most important part in a person’s life.21. 50 Grade 9 British students decided to try out Chinese schools for about____ .A. half a monthB. a monthC. four monthsD. half a year22.

The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means ______ inChinese.A. 有利的B. 公平的C. 全面的D. 必要的BStarting from my second year of primary school, there was one event I hated every year: the piano concert. I didn’t want to practice a boring piece of music and was scared to perform in front of strangers. Each year I would ask my father if I could miss the concert “just thisonce”. And he would say something about buildingself-confidence and working towards a goal.So I was very proud when I stood in church(教堂) andwatched my father play the piano during his very fir st concert.My father wanted to play music when he was small. But his mother couldn’t afford lessons.Three years ago, when he retired(退休), he asked the church music director, Charles, to take him as a student. Just before the concert, Charles told me m y dad was playing “the best I’ve ever seen him.” For a moment after my father sat down at the keyboard, he simply stared down at his fingers.I wondered whether he would even begin.But then Aram Khachaturian’s Melody(交响乐) began. It seemed that my father took the music so seriously that he didn’t realize we were there. My dad made it through Melody and then through another song. Although he didn’t have much skill, he made up for it in feeling.My 11-year-old son Jeff was there. “So what did you think about your grandfather?” I asked Jeff later. “He was great,” Jeff replied.My father may not have reached his top musically, but in his grandson’s eyes, he’s at the top of the mountain.24.

My friends would say “Alice, you look great!” or “ How did you lose so much weight? ”. Those compliments（赞扬）made me feel good and confident.Soon I dropped to 110 ponds. A few of my friends told me that I need to stop dieting because I was starting to look sick. They brought me a present—a bag of chocolates, which I later gave to my sister. My mum would come to my room, with tears in her eyes, and have long chats about how harmful this diet was and begged me to stop. My dad would leav e worried messages on my cell phone at school, telling me that it would do serious harm to my body.By mid-June, when school was coming to an end, I was down to an only alive state of 95 pounds. All of a sudden, I knew I had to do something.I guessed the number itself scared me. I recalled my doctor. He told me abouta girl who was 95 pounds and was at the risk of dying. I knew I was putting my life at risk, but for what? To make those who love me worried? Is it worthwhile to be thin?Now I realize that models in magazines, TV and movies are not realistic. The price to pay for the “perfect body” is living with the dangerous and sometimes deadly eating disorder. And there are more important things to think about than how thin you are.28.

I watched as my elder sister and her grade came in and took their places next to us on the stage. Meanwhile, I could hear laughing. Some students were pointing at a girl standing next to my sister. I’d never seen this girl before. A girl whispered in my ear, “Did you know she’s wearing diapers(纸尿裤)？”After school that evening, I asked my sister about the girl I’d seen. She told me her name was Theresa and that she was a very nice girl. “Why were those kids being mean（刻薄） to her?” I asked. “Because they’re stupid,” she said.One day, I was walking home from school when I heard voices and laughter behind me. “There’s the little fool’s sister. Does your sister wet her pants too?” I walked a little faster and then I felt a stone hit me in the back. When I got home, I ran down to my sister’s room.I pushed my way into her room, screaming at her. “Why do you have to be that girl’s friend? I don’t see anyone else being nice to her.”Janelle yelled back, “Because she’s a wonderful person and she’s dying!”I will remember those words as long as I live. Theresa wet her pants because she had an illness, which was killing her. My sister was the only one nice enough to be her friend. A few months later, Theresa passed away.I felt proud that Janelle was my sister. Throughout the years I watched her, and she always made friends with everyone. It didn’t matter if they were fat, thin, c lever or not. She never left anyone feeling isolated(被孤立) or alone.
