2023年浙江省杭州市西湖区中考一模英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读单选HomeschoolingWhat do most people remember about their school days? Playing with classmates during breaks, eating food in the dining hall, or going to the headmaster’s office, perhaps. But 850,000 teenagers in the United States don’t experience these things, because they are homeschooled. They don’t go to a regular school.Their parents teach them. Their education takes place at home and in the community. What is it like to be homeschooled? Read Dylan’s blog about his homeschooling experience.MONDAY, July 10I’m Dylan and I’m 14 years old. This is my third year of being homeschooled by my mom, a university professor (教授). A lot of people ask me how I feel about it. They ask, “Do you miss being in school with other kids?”Well, my daily life is different from the daily lives of millions of children who go to regular schools, but I’m enjoying my time with my mom. I’m learning things at my own pace. We can go fast or slow, depending on the subject. These days, I’m reading books that most kids only read when they get to college. I’m studying French, German, art, and the historiesof the world—things I’m very interested in.A lot of kids think I never get to communicate with other kids, but that’s not true. I get together with the other homeschooled kids during our weekly sports games and at social events. I don’t just study at home. My mom takes me to all kinds of field trips—to museums, theaters, libraries, and lots of other cool places. And college? I’m not worried about it. I know I’m preparing myself well for it.1．Who teaches homeschooled children according to the text?A．School headmasters.B．Their friends.C．University professors.D．Their parents.2．What does the underlined word “pace” probably mean?A．Cost.B．Distance.C．Risk.D．Speed. 3．How can homeschooled kids communicate with other kids?A．Through home meetings.B．Through college festival.C．Through social events.D．Through school lessons.4．What does Dylan think of homeschooling?A．He thinks it costs too much.B．He likes traditional school better. C．He enjoys homeschooling.D．He thinks it makes kids lonely.Last year, I started doing some volunteer work for a charity (慈善机构) in my town that helps disabled children. I found out that the charity needed to buy some new wheelchairs, but that they really didn’t have the money. So, I started to think about what I could do to raise money.When I mentioned this to my friends, they said, “Well, why don’t you run the London Marathon?!” They laughed and so did I—we all know that I’ve never done any running before. But later, I started to think that it might not be a bad idea.I talked to the charity people and they agreed to put my name forward. I bought some gear (装备) and started running. After a month or so, I found I could do almost five kilometers. The problem, though, was that the marathon is 42 kilometers. The race was only five months away. I practiced as hard as I could—I had to run and finish the race, because if I did, I would raise enough money to buy four new wheelchairs.Well, when the big day came, I was not at all sure that I was ready. During my training, I’d managed to run 25 kilometers, but 42? Could I do it?Luckily, it wasn’t a hot day and the people running with me helped me a lot. However, after about 34 kilometers, I was really tired and I nearly stopped, but the people watching cheered me on and I managed to struggle (挣扎) on to the finish line. My time was five hours and ten minutes.It was hard, but I finally did the marathon and got the wheelchairs for the charity. 5．Why did the writer decide to run a marathon?A．She wanted to raise some money for charity.B．She wanted to be a professional runner. C．She wanted to improve her physical health.D．She wanted to be a popular volunteer. 6．What was the hard challenge for the writer?A．She had never done any running before.B．She didn’t have enough gear.C．The charity people didn’t agree with her.D．Her friends all laughed at her. 7．How long did the writer practice before the London Marathon?A．About a month.B．About three months.C．About six months.D．About nine months.8．How might the writer feel after the race?A．Afraid.B．Proud.C．Sad.D．Surprised.Should you see a doctor every time you’re sick? Of course not! Doctors don’t have a cure (疗法) for everything. In fact, there are many simple illnesses that are difficult for doctors to cure. Sometimes people use different “home remedies (治疗法)” for them.The cold virus (病毒) is one example. People in many countries don’t take medicine for a cold. They make a big pot of hot chicken soup instead. They eat the soup and rest. Many people believe that chicken soup is a natural and healthy cure for a cold. And in fact it really helps: drinking a lot of water is good when you have a cold. Also, the hot soup helps you breathe better and helps your throat.And in China, it’s common to cure a headache with an egg. You boil the egg, take off the shell and rub (揉) the egg on your face, head and neck until the egg becomes cool. Some people think this helps you sleep better, too. Rubbing with the egg relaxes you. Often headaches are because of stress, so relaxing is a great idea.What about a fever? There are a lot of different home remedies, but an interesting home remedy uses vinegar (醋). In Russia, people rub it into the skin. Vinegar makes your skin feel cooler, and it can help lower your body temperature a little.One of the world’s oldest home remedies is tea. You can use herbal (草药) teas for all kinds of simple stomachaches and sore throats. Some popular ingredients in home remedy teas make a sore throat feel better and help you relax.9．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A．European doctors B．Simple illnesses.C．Different people.D．Asian countries. 10．What do many people think is a natural cure for a cold?A．Drinking hot chicken soup.B．Eating a cool egg.C．Rubbing vinegar into the skin D．Drinking herbal teas11．When do Chinese rub with an egg?A．When they have a fever.B．When they have a headache. C．When they have a cold.D．When they have a sore throat. 12．Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (P = Paragraph)A．B．C．D．Is your mobile phone book full of phone numbers of people you don’t really want to talk to? Do you go out with people from work or university more often than with your real friends? Do you say yes to invitations because you think you should, not because you want to? If you answered yes to at least two of these questions, then perhaps it’s time to “edit (编辑) your friends”.Nowadays people spend a lot of time with workmates or classmates. The result is thatwe don’t have enough time to see our real, close friends. As our lives get busier, it becomes more important to spend the little free time with people we really want to see, people we love and who really love us.Who are the friends you need to edit? A few years ago, I read a book about how to getrid of (摆脱) unnecessary things. It said you should ask yourself: Is it useful? Do I really like it? Do I feel better every time I look at it? If the answer is not to any one of those questions, you should throw it away. Maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends.What kind of friends will you probably need to edit? Sometimes it’s an old friend who you used to have a lot in common with, but now you have very little or nothing to say to. Orit might be a new friend who you get on quite well with, but who is taking up too much of your time. Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting, think, “Do I really want to see this person?” and if the answer is no, say no, and make an excuse. That way you’ll have more time to spend with your real friends.13．Why does the writer list three questions at the beginning of the text?A．To show different opinions.B．To lead into the topic.C．To do scientific research.D．To describe his friends.14．What questions should you ask yourself when deciding which friends to edit?A．How smart are these friends?B．Do I really like spending time with them? C．Are they new or old friends?D．Will they make us look good in public? 15．What is the purpose of “editing your friends”?A．To increase the number of friends in your social circle.B．To get much closer to your workmates and classmates.C．To focus on spending quality time with real friends.D．To delete all the numbers in your telephone book.二、阅读还原5选5下面文章中有五处（第1-5题）需要添加小标题。

Which sentence can be found in a poster for FCBD?A. All are 10% off.B. Buy more, get one free.C. Come in and take one away.D. The first ten will get a free copy of “One Piece”.BIt's been said that good cooking is an art form. The truth is that it's much more than that. It's away t o teach kids necessary 21st century skills. It invites kids to make connections to the outside world by asking, "Where does our food come from? "and "What is the history of this recipe?" And it allows them to apply what they are learning at school in their real life.They also test the math skills of young chefs. Measuring ingredients (原料) is a common task in cooking or baking. Cooking also brings science ideas to life. It is a perfect chance for them to learn that oil and water don't usually mix.Recipe failures (失败) matter as much as the successes, as they help kids develop resilience(韧性). When Helen, 11, took her cake out of the oven, she was disappointed to find that it was flat as a board. Her father told her about how he accidentally made cookies with garlic powder instead of powdered ginger(姜) when he was twelve. Then they worked together a few times to find out what had gone wrong with her cake.Beyond the practical skills， cooking builds character. It encourages kids to work with others. It also encourages them to be open to foods they might not have tried. Jad, 11, had never eaten quinoa (藜麦) before testing a recipe with quinoa in it. His parents reported that he was so excited about this new ingredient that he cooked it for his family the next night.Of course, the best part of cooking with kids isn't the skills above. It's the memories you make together in the kitchen. This year, Olive and his family have already done a lot of holiday baking, including their favorite chocolate-chip cookies. They both felt excited even though the kitchen was in a mess.19. The passage mainly talks about the advantages of __________ .A. skillsB. cookingC. scienceD. families20. The underlined word "apply" in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________ .A. teachB. finishC. useD. answer21. The best part of cooking with children is __________ .A. to make children learn mathB. to help children learn from failuresC. to improve children's cooking skillsD. to create sweet family memories22. In the passage, the writer shows his ideas by __________ .A. asking questionsB. giving exampleC. listing numbersD. making up storiesCLast month I went to Peru with my mom and dad. My mom’s company sent her there on business. It was great! We flew into Cusco. One weekend we took a train to visit Machu Picchu.What is Machu Picchu? Well, it is the remains of an ancient Inca city. It is on top of a mountain that overlooks the Urubamba River. It is more than 7,000 feet above sea level！How did we get up that high? We could have hiked the Inca Trail（印加古道）for four days. Instead, we decided to ride the train. It runs right along the river. It takes only a few hours. Our guide was a man from the local area. Not only did he provide information about the area, he also worked as our interpreter. Some of the people of Peru spea k Quechua, which of course we don’t understand.As we rode the train, our guide pointed out unknown plants that grow in the rain forest. The plants which grow near the floor of the rain forest, was so thick that I could hardly imagine trying to get through it back in 1911. That was when Hiram Bingham, the man who searched for the city, started his expedition（探险）.We also learned about the animals. There are some dangerous snakes that live there. One bite can kill a person. It must have been quite a journey that Bingham took!His trip was well worth it, in my opinion. Machu Picchu was so big and beautiful! The stones have gone through the test of time. They have been there since the 1400s. There were terraces（梯田）cut into the sides of the mountain, and green was everywhere. To top it all off, we were in the clouds!We saw where the people lived, where they worshipped, and where they farmed. The history is fascinating!23. How did the writer go to Machu Picchu with her parents?A. By plane.B. By boat.C. On foot.D. By train.24.What does the underlined word “interpreter” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Translator.B. Driver.C. Guard.D. Teacher.25. In which order did the writer do in her journey?a. Arrived in Cusob. Get up to Machu Picchuc. Learned about animals.d. Get to know some plants.A. a-b c-dB. a-d-c-bC. b-c-d-aD. b-d-a-c26. In the 4th paragraph Hiram Bingham is mentioned mainly to show_________.A. how crazy he was to start the expedition in the rain forestB. how difficult and dangerous it is to go through the rain forestC. how knowledgeable the writer is to know about Hiram BinghamD. how worth it was for Hiram Bingham to take the tripD①Colors are often used to describe feelings. For example, if you “feel blue”, it means that you’re sad. A person who “sees red” is angry, and someone who’s “tickled pink” is happy about something. Besides expressing feelings, though, colors may also influence our actions.②In Japan, officials have put in blue lights around railroad platforms to discourage people from jumping in front of trains. As a result, certain stations with the blue lights have seen an 84 percent drop in suicide(自杀) numbers. Pink has been believed to prevent crimes. In the United States, rooms in prison(监狱) were painted this color to calm prisoners. In sports, some visiting teams have had to use all-pink locker rooms. which were meant to weaken the team and make the lose.③Unlike pink, red may let you gain an upper hand in sports. Sportsmen who wore red were found to have a slightly higher chance of winning. Red is also believed to be the color of energy and power.④The ways in which colors affect us may be a result of nature and evolution (进化). Red is the color of fire and blond so it is connected to life, danger. Yellow describes sunny days and can make us feel energetic and happy, while blue relaxes us with images of the sea and the sky.⑤Other factors relating our reactions to colors are culture and history. In the past, the process to produce purple is difficult, and only Kings and nobles could afford things in purple. As a result, the color become a royal symbol.⑥As you can see, colors shape how we understand the world. They are seen in all parts oflife, and they can influence us in ways that we may not notice.27. How do we describe somebody who is feeling happy?A. She feels blue.B. She sees red.C. She is tickled pink.D. She becomes yellow.28. According to the article, what is one way to weaken an opposing team in sports?A. Appearing in blue sportswear.B. Painting their locker rooms pink.C. Showing them the color yellow.D. Using purple as your team’s symbol.29. According to the article, which of the following is NOT true about colors?A. People’s actions to c olors are decided by nature rather than culture.B. Purple became a symbol of royalty because it was hard for the public to get.C. Both blue and pink can make people feel less angry. worried, and excited.D. Red is connected to danger because of nature and evolution.30. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A. ①/②③/④⑤/⑥B.①②/③/④⑤/⑥C.①/②③④⑤/⑥D①②③④⑤/⑥ .第二节（共5小题, 每小题2分, 满分10分）下面文章中有五处（第31—35题）需要添加小标题。

His family were doing a spring cleaning of their pretty wooden house in preparation for the Spring Festival of Songkran. They put their hands together in front of the body, like giving wishes, to greet me with a traditional action called the wai. Worawut translated their words for me.April 13That smells wonderful! The women were cooking Thai foods for today’s festival opening ceremonies. We men went to the river and brought lots of sand to the village wat. That was a very beautiful building where the monks (僧侣) lived. We left the sand near the wat. Worawut said I’d soon find out why.April 14We all dressed up and went to the village wat. The monks waited with their bowls at a long table. Monks are used to a life of discipline (纪律), but not today. We filled their bowls with rice and all kinds of delicious foods. Everyone smiled and music played as the monks ate.After that, we attended the bathing ceremony. We poured water over little stones. Young people poured some sweet-smelling water into the hands of older people to show respect for them. Outside, everyone used the sand we brought to make sand pagodas (塔). We put flowers, flags, and stones on ours. It was beautiful.April 15Today was the last day of the festival, and Worawut told me to get ready for some water throwing. We put lots of water on the truck and drove into the village. Everyone was throwing water. We got all wet! On such a hot day the water felt really good. I didn’t feel tired at all! I can’t wait to come back next year!4．Which picture can best describe the underlined word “wai” in Para.1?A．B．C．D．5．How many days does the festival last?A．One day.B．Two days.C．Three days.D．Four days. 6．What’s the right order according to the journals?★They attended the bathing ceremony.★The family cleaned the house.★They went to throw water in the village.★They provided food for monks.A．★★★★B．★★★★C．★★★★D．★★★★7．What does Paul think of his holiday?A．Exciting but tiring.B．Wonderful and worthy.C．Boring but surprising.D．Uncomfortable and tiring.If you look up at the night sky from a busy city street, you’ll see a few stars shining brightly. Do the same thing in the countryside or from a mountaintop, and you’ll see a lot more of them. Just how many stars are there in space? You could try counting them yourself if you want, but it’s probably a better idea to ask the experts at the European Space Agency (ESA). It has come up with its own estimates (估计) on the number of stars in our universe (宇宙).According to the ESA, there could be as many as 1022 to 1024 stars in the universe. However, this is only an estimate. Remember that Albert Einstein’s Theory of Relativity tells that time is not continuous. So experts might be counting stars and galaxies (星系) that disappeared a long time ago.This number includes stars that are much larger than our sun, and others that are much smaller. It considers trillions (万亿) of galaxies that are spread out across our universe. Someof these galaxies are considered to be Dwarf Galaxies because they have as few as 10 million stars. Others are Giant Galaxies because they have more than a trillion stars.The ESA estimate also includes the Milky Way, and it is our home galaxy. According to ESA scientists, it is made up of at least 100 billion stars. In fact, our sun is a medium-sized star in it. It is a member of the white cloud of stars which can sometimes be seen across a moonless night sky.Many stars have planets around them. In fact, some scientists believe that there are as many planets as stars out there. Perhaps there is life on these planets, just waiting to be discovered. If that’s it, maybe there are a few alien scientists who can give us an exact answer about the number of stars in the universe.8．How many stars do Giant Galaxies have?A．1022 to 1024.B．10 million.C．More than a trillion.D．At least 100 billion.9．What does “it” in Para.4 refer to?A．The planet.B．The ESA．C．The Milky Way.D．The star. 10．What can we infer from the passage?A．We know the exact number of stars from alien scientists.B．Einstein’s Theory of Relativity tells the number of the stars.C．There are different galaxies according to the number of stars.D．The European Space Agency gives us exact numbers of the stars.11．What’s the best title of this passage?A．A New Star is Born in space.B．Count the uncountable stars.C．Welcome to the Milky Way.D．The European Space Agency.Many people have the impression (印象) that sharks are man-eating monsters (怪兽) that pull swimmers down to eat them. This is far from the truth, however, and has largely been made by Hollywood movie producers who use this false image to add the feeling of fear and danger to their movies.In fact, many sharks will only feed on already dead animals. Some, like the huge whale shark, have no teeth and are harmless to nearly everything. Out of over 470 kinds of sharks, only some will attack (攻击) humans: the great white shark, oceanic whitetip shark, tigershark, and bull shark. These kinds of huge and powerful sharks can cause serious injuries. However, these usually avoid humans as we are not a part of their natural diet. In most cases of shark attacks, the shark mistakes a human for marine mammal (海洋哺乳动物). After taking a bite (咬), it usually will soon know its mistake and stop attacking a human. The number of shark attacks every year is about four, and if you compare this to the number of sharks killed each year by humans over a hundred million —it’s the sharks who should be scared of us, not the other way around.More than 600 people die every year from snake bite in Sri Lanka alone. Falling fruits kill about 150 people every year, and about 40,000 Americans die each year in car accidents. Experts even say that you are far more likely to die from a bee than a shark attack.So what does this mean? Like all dangerous animals, sharks must be well treated, but in fact, they are nothing like the killing machines that they are made out to be in the movies. Sharks are amazing animal. They’ve been around for over 420 million years, and they have excellent problem-solving skills. It’s time we stop seeing sharks as sea monsters. 12．What causes our wrong impression of sharks?A．The huge whale sharks.B．Some Hollywood Movies.C．The sharks’ natural diet.D．The number of shark attacks.13．What can we know about sharks?A．Only four kinds of sharks may attack humans.B．Whale sharks are harmful to nearly everything.C．About four sharks are killed by humans each year.D．Some sharks still eat humans after they know mistakes.14．Why does the writer use a lot of numbers in Para.3?A．To show people are easy to die.B．To show accidents are everywhere.C．To show car accidents are serious.D．To show sharks are not so dangerous.15．What’s the last paragraph mainly about?A．Sharks are like dangerous animals.B．Sharks are great sea animals.C．Humans should be scared of sharks.D．Sharks are good for humans.二、阅读还原6选5阅读下面的短文，从所给的选项中选择合适的小标题填入第31-35小题（选项中有一项是多余选项)。

To deal with this problem, it is recommended that a big part of the government's health budget (预算) be used for health education and disease prevention instead of treatment. In fact, many kinds of diseases are preventable in many ways and preventing a disease is usually much cheaper than treating it. For example, people could avoid catching a cold if they dressed warmly when the weather starts getting cold. But many people get sick because they fail to do so, and have to spend money seeing a doctor.Daily habits like eating more healthy food would have kept millions of families from becoming bankrupt if the patients had taken action for early prevention. For example, keeping a balanced diet seems to be quite important.One very effective (有效的) and costless way of prevention is regular (规律的) exercise, which is necessary for a healthy mind and body. Regular exercise, such as running, walking, and playing sports is a good way to make people feel better or reduce stress.Health education plays a key role in improving people's health. By giving people more information about health, countries could help people understand the importance of disease prevention and ways to achieve it. For example, knowing one's family medical history is an effective way to help keep healthy. Information about health problems among close relatives will make them aware of what they should do to prevent certain diseases through lifestyle changes, which will work before it is too late.However, paying more attention to disease prevention does not mean medical treatment is unimportant. After all, prevention and treatment are just two different ways toward the same effect. In conclusion, we could save money on health care and treat patients more successfully if our country spends more money on health prevention and education. 1．What’s the best title of the passage?A．Prevention or Education B．Prevention or TreatmentC．Health or Illness D．Exercise or Illness2．Which of the following can replace (替代) the underlined word bankrupt?A．unable to be cured B．unable to pay one’s debts (债务)C．stronger than ever before D．more successful than ever before3．We learn from the passage that ________.A．dressing warmly can prevent diseasesB．a balanced diet is cheaper than regular exerciseC．the more health education, the betterD．the government’s health budget should be increased4．Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?CP (Central Point) P (Point)Sp (Sub-point次要点) C (Conclusion)A．B．C．D．C15、Come And Join Us!We warmly welcome you to the Shine Sports Centre!All the young people in this city can become members of the Shine Sports Centre and each member should pay $ 10 every year.

For the first time, scientists have made a robot that can take a beating and keep on going. Scientists from Cornell University made the robot, which looks like a spider (蜘蛛) with four legs.Until now, even the most advanced robot was almost certain to break down when it was broken. That is because its computer inside simply doesn’t know how to make the machine work a fter its shape has changed.To deal with this problem, the scientists put eight motors (发动机) and two sensors (传感器) that read how the machine is working. They all give signals (信号) to the machine’s software. Using this information, the computer can then wor k out the machine’s shape at any moment.The new technology is a big advance in robot-making, scientists say, and it’s far from scary. It may someday help scientists create better man-made (人造的) arms and legs and give new freedom to people who losethem. It might also help scientists understand how people and animals work out their own sense of place in space.“It has been difficult to design robots that can work well when the environment changes or when it’s damaged,” says Olaf Sporns of Indiana University in the US. “With this work, we are nearer to solving this problem.”1．（小题1）Why do robots easily break down when they are damaged?A．They have no computers inside.B．The computer has changed a lot.C．They cannot repair themselves.D．The computer cannot work if the robot changes.2．（小题2）The new technology allows the robot to .A．do house work for humansB．tell people where it isC．remember a lot of informationD．keep working after being damaged3．（小题3）The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refers to.A．sensors B．arms and legs C．scientists D．robots4．（小题4）How do the sensors in the robot work?A．They help the computer learn the robot’s condition.B．They can find out where the damage comes from.C．They can replace (替代) the computer when i t’s broken.D．They can send signals to the person who uses the robot.E17、Digital Atomic Watch(数字原子表)This new watch is one of the most accurate(精准) watches in fashion.

Selfies are taking over Renren and Sina Weibo. T he word “selfie” was even named Word of the Year by Oxford Dictionaries in 2013. But why do people feel the need to take them? And are they doing us more harm than good?According to Dr. Pamela Rutledge, director of the Media Psychology Research Center in the US, posting a selfie shows a biological need for self-validation (自我验证). Humans have an area in their brain that controls social activity. Receiving positive feedback(反馈) on a selfie you have posted can be the same as someone stopping you in the street and praising your appearance. The act of taking a selfie also puts you in a position of power. Y ou are the director and the subject ofyour own work of art. It helps people feel in control of their self-image and can be a powerful tool.But can it go too far? The experts warn that too much time spent on selfies can affect people’s confidence, particularly in teenagers. If you are spending a lot of time choosing the perfect selfie outfit (着装) or finding the right angle (角度), then there could be a problem. Likewise (同样地), posting selfies can harm your personal relationships. UK studies found that many people find it hard to relate to people who are often posting selfies.So next time you catch your smartphone to take a quick selfie, it may be better to drop it straight back into your pocket. 1．What does Rutledge think of posting selfies?A．It helps people get to know each other.B．It helps people take better pictures.C．It just lets people show off their new clothes.D．It meets (满足) people’s need for self-validation.2．From Paragraph 2, we learn the following EXCEPT .A．it needs some art to take good selfiesB．the brain controls people’s social activityC．people want good comments (评论) on their selfiesD．taking selfies helps people feel in control of their self-image3．The experts think spending too much time taking selfies can .A．affect people’s confidenceB．give away people’s personal informationC．make people spend more on smartphonesD．cause people to spend less time with their friendsⅤ.书面表达19、书面表达假如你是华,你的英国笔友对中国文化很感兴趣,想到中国旅行感受中国文化。
