AOne day an ant was drinking at a small stream and fell in. She made desperate(adj.拼死的) efforts to reach the side, but made no progress at all. The poor ant almost exhausted(adj.精疲力竭的) was still bravely doing her best when a dove saw her. Moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. He would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. He stopped to see what had bit him, and the dove immediately flew away. It was an animal much weaker and smaller than herself that had saved her life.1. The ant could not reach the side though _______.A. she cried for helpB. she asked the dove to save herC. she tried very hardD. she could smell well2. The dove saved the ant because _______.A. she was the ant's friendB. she took pity on the poor antC. the ant was almost exhaustedD. the ant had been struggled in the water for a long time3. The ant succeeded in getting on the bank with the help of _______.A. a leafB. a piece of woodC. a blade of grassD. a raft4.

In writing the story, the writer wants to show _______.A. how clever the ant wasB. how kind the dove wasC. how the ant and the dove helped each otherD. we often need help from others, therefore we should help others as much as we canBOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?Listen —Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them — If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra (额外的) pencil or pen with you to classes in case (以防) they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them — Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times. Making cards and encouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control. But if you can’t stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve (值得) to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you don’t want to stay with your friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve to be with them when they’re having a good time!______ — Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!6.

When we provide help for our friends, we should _____.A. try to do everything for themB. put them before ourselvesC. change their bad habits firstD. ignore their faults8 What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe’s words?A. Life without a friend is death.B. A friend is easier lost than found.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. A man is known by his friends.9. Which of the following can be put in the blank of the last paragraph?A. Make plans.B. Enjoy yourself.C. Understand your friends.D. Play with your friends.10. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to find a good friend.B. How to help friends in trouble.C. How to be a good friend.D. How to make more friends.CThe day before yesterday, when Peter’s family were having dinner, Father raised an interesting question, “Was there anything in our past that we feel ashamed of, guilty about, or regretted? Maybe we can find ways to say sorry, or take some action to right any wrong doing.” This seemed like a very private matter, but Peter thought about it carefully the whole night.Peter remembered an incident from middle school. In his school, there was a worker, Neil Stone, who none of the kids liked. One night, Peter and two of his classmates decided to play a trick on him. They found a can of red paint, and wrote on the school main road in bright red: Neil Stone is a fool! The next day, the whole school saw these words. Within two hours, Neil had Peter and his two classmates in his office. His classmates said that they had done it but Peter lied, denying the truth. No one ever talked about it.This morning, Peter went back to his middle school. Neil Stone is still working there. “Sorry, Neil. Do you still remember what happened ten years ago? I want you to know that I did it.” “I knew it!’ Neil laughed. They had a good laugh and a lively discussion. Neil’s closing words were: “Peter, I always felt bad for you because your classmates got it off their mind, and I knew you were carrying it around all these years. I want to thank you for visiting me… for your sake.”Peter knows that no matter how difficult the situation is, it is never too late to clear up the past and make a fresh start.11．What did Peter remember doing in middle school?A. Something fantastic.B. Something unpleasant.C. Something valuable.D. Something useful.12．What colou r were the words “Neil Stone is a fool!”?A. Dark blue.B. Light green.C. Pure white.D. Bright red. 13．What does the underlined word “denying” mean?A. 夸大B. 赞同C. 否认D. 承认14．When did Neil know who wrote the words on the school main road?A. Ten years ago.B. The day before yesterday.C. This morning.D. Not until Peter told him.15．What is the best title for this passage?A. Peter’s story.B. An unforgettable lesson.C. It’s never too late.D.

四川高一高中英语月考试卷班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.I was walking into the office yesterday, minding my own business when all of a sudden I turned the corner and there it was, sitting on my chair. “Oh, my god,” I said surprisedly, “Zucchinin(西葫芦). “Isn’t that nice?” said Rachel, my workmate. “Somebody left zucchini for everyone!”Have you ever noticed how somebody actually gives you zucchini? At least, not in the same way they give you corn or apples or tomatoes, I mean, if someone wants to give you a few fresh, juicy peaches off their tree, they walk right up and hand them to you. You’ll be pleased. It seems that they have confidence you will like their gift. But with zucchini, they left it and went away. No note No calling card. I thought zucchini is the abandoned orphan of the vegetable kingdom.“Yeah, it’s nice, ”I said. “Who should we thank for this gift?” “I don’t know,” Rachel said. “You know how it is with zucchini.” Of course I do. Nobody actually grows it. At least, not on purpose. It just grows like weeds.“So what are you going to do with yours?” I asked. “I’ll just do what I always do with zucchini.” She saidThis morning I stepped into my office area carefully, afraid of what might be there waiting for me. There was a piece of bread in a white box sitting on my desk. I picked it up. It smelled wonderful. I took a bite. It tasted wonderful.“Who made the banana bread?” I asked. Rachel said, “It isn’t banana bread. It’s zucchini bread. ” I stopped chewing. “It’s delicious! But I hate zucchini”“So do I,” Rachel admitted. “But a few years ago I found this great way to cook zucchini bread , and now I actually look forward to zucchini season”I took another bite of the bread. I couldn’t help wondering :“How could anything so tasty come from something so distasteful?”“It’s a fact of life,” Rachel said. “You mix effort with creativity and you can turn almost anything around”【1】What happened to the author yesterday?A．She found a zucchini on her office chairB．She shared vegetables with her workmatesC．She made zucchini bread for everyoneD．She harvested the tomatoes she grew【2】Paragraph 2 is actually about .A．the author’s thoughtsB．a discussion between workmatesC．the way of making zucchini breadD．the author’s earliest memory of zucchini【3】We can learn from the underlined sentence (in Paragraph5) that the author .A．was afraid of receiving any giftB．disliked the zucchini at firstC．knew who gave her the zucchiniD．got angry when she saw the zucchini again【4】For what purpose is the text written?A．To introduce ways of making zucchini breadB．To teach readers how to grow zucchiniC．To encourage people to work hardD．To show readers the philosophy (哲理) of life.2.To a growing number of US students in China, study in the ancient country is no longer just a cultural experience it has become an important part of their future professional careers.Sam Gor, a 26-year-old student from Santa Clara, a county near San Francisco, said the purpose of his studies in Beijing was to help him find a good job when he goes back to the United States. "Culture matters," he said. "But more importantly, to learn Chinese and get a better understanding of the country may help me professionally." As a new student at Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU), Gor hopes to find a job in Santa Clara's local government when he goes back home in one year. "I need to learn Chinese if I want the job, as we have a large Chinese community there."Gor is not alone in his thinking. While the number of US students in China has grown from less than 100 in the early 1980s to more than 10,000 for the time being. Many of them are here to boost(提高) a professional skill as much as to enjoy a new culture.“In the past, foreign students came to China simply for our culture,” said XuQuihan, director of BLCU’s foreign students office. “But because of China’s rapid economic and social development, being able to speak Chinese has become a useful tool to a stud ent’s future job”There are more US students who choose to stay in the country instead of going back after graduation. Stephanie Schubmehlo, a 23-year-old from Rochester, New York State, said she would like to stay in Beijing after graduation. “I love the city, and I can earn myself a living here if I can speak good Chinese,” she said, adding that some of the US students she knows shared the same idea.【1】By saying “culture matters”, Gor .A．questioned the popularity of ChineseB．expressed his difficulty in learning ChineseC．showed the differences between two languagesD．stressed the importance of learning about another culture【2】Compared with that of the past, the present number of US students in China .A．has decreased greatly B．remains slightly unchangedC．has been over 100 times larger D．has nearly doubled【3】We can infer from the text that in 1984 US students learnt Chinese .A．just for the fun of itB．to experience a different cultureC．to ensure themselves a promising futureD．for both cultural and professional purposes【4】In XuQiuhan’sopinion, .A．Chinese is too difficult for foreign studentsB．more and more Americans will study in ChinaC．professional skills are more important than cultureD．China’s development makes Chinese professionally useful3.What do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm? You may blow it away. But what if that insect is a ladybug (瓢虫)? It is possible that you would let it stay. What is it about ladybugs that we like?Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good lucky sign. A ladybug in the field meant the crops would be successful and that the weather would be good. The farmers may have thought too highly of such a small bug, but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops. They eat harmful insects.Actually, it is not the adult ladybug that eats other insects. It’s the baby ladybug. When the baby ladybugs hatch (孵化), they are very hungry and will eat mites, aphids, mealy bugs, green flies, and other crop-destroyers. In the 1800s, ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects. They completely saved all the trees.Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything. Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off a dangerous fluid (液体). Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead. They fall off leaves and never move until their attacker goes away.So the next time you see a ladybug, think about what it may be doing. Maybe it is off to save an orange tree.Maybe its next move will be to roll off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size. Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow. Who knows? Ladybugs are special that way.【1】Ladybugs were brought from Australia to California in the 1800s to .A．add more ladybugs to area B．report the weather for farmersC．act as a lucky sign of good crops D．save orange trees by eating insects【2】From the passage we know that .A．it’s the adult ladybug that eats most of the harmful insectsB．ladybugs often roll off a leaf and play dead to attack the birdsC．ladybugs can give off a dangerous fluid to protect themselvesD．the baby ladybug mainly eats mites, aphids, mealy bugs, and oranges【3】The underlined phrase “stand up to” most probably means .A．watch B．support C．save D．fight【4】Which of the following may the author agree with?A．Ladybugs do harm to nature.B．Ladybugs are unusual insects.C．Ladybugs are dangerous insects.D．Ladybugs eat more than they should.4.Few kids today are taught the value of empathy (同感；同情心). It seems so hard for people to show their love and care toward others and to actually understand what they are going through.As a child I was taught to go out of my way to make someone else happy. My mom would tell me to say at least one kind word to someone el se every day. I admit that it wasn’t very easy to do. But as soon as you see the look of gratitude (感激) in that person’s eyes, you just want to do as much as you can.I had an experience with a guy that people were always making fun of. Every time I saw that happening, I knew in my heart that it was wrong. I decided I would try to be his friend. I started walking with him and introducing him to people around us. I was making him happy by just doing that. And I loved the fact that I was really making a difference in his life.After a while I realized that he wasn’t the kind of person everybody thought he was. We are still really good friends today. People have almost completely stopped making fun of him. But he is still what he was. What had changed was the attitudes of others toward him.From this experience I’ve learned to be more loving toward other people. What I did for my friend was so easy. And at the same time I had a lot of fun. So I hope that everyone could say a kind word to someone else at least once a day.I can promise it will be the best feeling you can ever get.One kind word could make someone’s day brighter.【1】We can learn from the fourth paragraph that .A．one’s attitude to others can be changedB．one’s nature can be changed as time goes byC．everyone can have a good friendshipD．people shouldn’t make fun of others【2】The last two paragraphs suggest that _______.A．saying a kind word will give you friendship and funB．it is really a hard thing to say a kind word to othersC．having a lot of fun in life will help to make a good lifeD．a kind word may benefit both the speaker and the listener【3】What does the writer focus on in this passage?A．Understanding.B．Friendship.C．Kindness.D．Fun.二、完形填空The other evening we had a knock at the door.

Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood. In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.American culture is a part of Spanish life now. It’s certain that many thing s from America are as much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. I’ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life.However, it’s different with Western fast food. For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home. On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, it’s obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day.【1】From the first paragraph we can know that ____.A．the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhereB．most Spanish people don’t like to listen to their own musicC．fast food spreads from Spain to the United StatesD．some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills【2】What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?A．American novels.B．Hollywood movies.C．McDonald’s.D．American music.【3】Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?A．To protect foreign culture in Spain.B．To earn more money from Spanish films.C．To limit the number of foreign movies.D．To unite the European Community.【4】What do you think Spanish tapas might be?A．The name of a drink.B．The name of a restaurant.C．A clothing brand.D．A certain kind of food.2.A man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men.A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age.Men often discover their affinity(亲密) to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third. There is an old proverb, ‘Love me, love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this:” Love me, love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union. Men can think, feel, and sympathize with each other through their favorite author. They live in him together, and he in them.A good book is often the best urn(瓮)of a life enshrining the best that life could think out; for the world of a man’s life is, for the most part, the world of his thoughts. Thus the best books are treasuries of good words, the golden thoughts, which, remembered and cherished, become our constant companions and comforters.Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay, but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author’s minds, ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time have been to sift(筛) out the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive but what is really good.Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived. We hear what they said and did; we see them as if they were really alive; we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were, in a measure, actors with them in the scenes which they describe.The great and good do not die, even in this world. Embalmed(加以防腐处理) in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which one still listens.【1】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “immortality”?A．difficult to find B．last for a long timeC．very important D．hard to destroy【2】How do we get close to the greatest minds through reading?A．by talking to them about what we thoughtB．by experiencing what they have gone through in lifeC．by sharing their feeling and reading their mindsD．by acting with them on the stage【3】What is the best title of this text?A．Companionship of booksB．Life without booksC．Unforgettable booksD．Sorting out books【4】This passage is mainly developed by __________.A．analyzing causesB．making comparisonsC．examining differencesD．following the order of importance3.Son’s HelpMr. Lang worked in a factory. As a driver, he was busy but he was paid much. His wife was an able woman and did all the housework. When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home. So he had enough time when he had a holiday. A few friends of his liked gambling(赌博) and he learned it soon. So he was interested in it and hardly forgot anything except gambling. He lost all his money and later he began to sell the television, watch es and so on. His wife told him not to do it but he didn’t listen to her. She had to tell the police. He and his friends were punished for it. And he was hardly sent away. After he came out of lockup(拘留所), he hated her very much and the woman had to leave him. It was New Year’s Day. Mr. Lang didn’t go to work. He felt lonely and wanted to gamble again. He called his friends and they came soon. But they were afraid the police would come. He told his five-year-old son to go to find out if there were the policemen outside. They waited for a long time and didn’t think the police would come and began to gamble. Suddenly opened the door and in came a few policemen. ―“I saw there weren’t any policemen outside, daddy,” said the boy, ―“so I went to the crossing and asked some to come.”【1】Mr. Lang was paid much because _______.A．he worked in a factoryB．he had a lot of work to doC．he had worked there for a long timeD．he was a driver【2】Mrs. Lang did all housework because _______.A．she wouldn’t stop her husband gamblingB．she couldn’t find any workC．she thought her husband was tiredD．her husband spent all time in gambling【3】The woman had to leave Mr. Lang because _______.A．he wouldn’t stop gamblingB．he had been put into lockupC．he was hardly sent away by the factoryD．he didn’t love her any longer【4】Which of the following is right?A．The boy thought his father needed some policemen.B．The boy hoped his father would stop gambling soon.C．The boy hoped his mother would come back.D．The boy hoped his father would be put into lockup again.4.When it comes to President Obama，most of his personal business is already known by the public. Personal information about his children, Malia and Sasha，however，has been kept a little more under wraps.The New York Times recently released a list of rules that Michelle Obama has mentioned over the years that Malia and Sasha must follow during their time in the White House，as well as in general. See how the first family educates their children：The girls must write reports about what they've seen on their trips，even if it's not required by their school.Malia may use her cell phone only on the weekend，and she and her sister cannot watch television or use acomputer for anything but homework during the week.Malia and Sasha have to play two sports：one they choose and one selected by their mother.Malia must learn to do laundry(洗衣服)before she leaves for college.The girls have to eat their vegetables，and if they say they are not hungry，they cannot ask for cookies or chips later.While these might be shocking to some，Michelle said，“They're not little princesses. It's just basic rules，boundaries, and expectations that we would have normally.”Michelle also mentions another set of rules：The girls must do their chores(家务)，though the White House has a large staff. Malia and Sasha have chores of their own.They must play a team sport, because it's about learning how to play on a team，how to lose and how to win gracefully.It sounds like Michelle and Barack want the best for their kids and to make them as well -rounded as possible. What are your thoughts on the Obama family rules?【1】What's the passage mainly about?A．The first family rules.B．The first family daily life.C．How to be good parents.D．How to be good children.【2】What do the underlined words “under wraps” in Para 1 probably mean?A．Attractive.B．Secret.C．Calm D．Public.【3】What has to be followed after the girls' every trip?A．Emails.B．Reports.C．Homework.D．Photos.【4】Which of the following is the exception for the girls?A．To learn to do laundry.B．To play two sports.C．To use cell phone freely.D．To eat their vegetables.5.In America, Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort(度假胜地): brilliant beaches, a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides sure to appeal to kids. Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild. Meanwhile, some safety tips should be followed, to enjoy the happiness and excitement the beach offers.The number one safety tip concerns ocean safety: pay attention to Flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands. Lifeguard post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous. Take them seriously! Tourists from land-locked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves. However, a calm ocean can become risky without warning. Make sure you swim near a lifeguard. Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards.Never swim alone. Many drownings involved single swimmers. When you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others.Don’t fight the current. The facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at oceanbeaches are caused by currents. These currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back. This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore. If you are caught in a rip (撕裂的)current, don’t fight it by trying to swim directly to shore. Instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore. Most rip current are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety.【1】When coming to Virginia Beach, children cannot enjoy the happiness of______.A．walking on the road made of wood B．joining the nightspotsC．Riding a horse or a pumper car D．Skiing in the sea【2】Many people believe the best time to visit Virginia Beach may be____.A．After autumn school term beginningB．In the summer vacationC．During the Christmas holidayD．In the cold winter【3】From the passage we can know ____.A．one in five persons swimming in the sea is drownedB．if one with lifeguard were drowning, five persons without lifeguard would beC．some 80% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguardsD．some 20% drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguards【4】The passage mainly tell us ____.A．Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resortB．the happiness and excitement the beach offersC．some safety tips when swimming in the seaD．the dangers for tourists from land-locked regions to swim in the sea四、其他七选五How to Love Your ParentsEven if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.
