2022-2023学年浙江省杭州市西湖区杭州市西湖高级中学高一上学期10月月考英语试题1. When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note —“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery” — and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically (魔术般) appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊) . Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.1. Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer to __________.A.show his magical power B.pay for the deliveryC.satisfy his curiosity D.please his mother2. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?A.He wanted to have tea there. B.He was a respectable person.C.He was treated as a family member. D.He was fully trusted by the family.3. Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now. B.It has been driven out of the market.C.Its service is getting poor. D.It is not allowed by law.4. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A.He missed the good old days. B.He wanted to tell interesting stories.C.He needed it for his milk bottles. D.He planted flowers in it.2. A picture of 17-year-old Zhang Guimei has wo n great popularity on China’s social media. The young girl with black-rimmed glasses and two short braids (辫子) is smiling brightly into the camera. People are deeply touched by the fresh-faced girl in the picture, which is far different from Zhang’s now aged and weathered face people are familiar with, as it tells a story of a woman who has devoted her life to improving education and fighting poverty in the countryside.Born in Northeast China’s Heilongjiang province in 1957, Zhang traveled to Yunnan when s he was 17 and has been helping girls from poor areas get education for over 40 years. Zhang helped build the country’s first senior high school to offer free education for girls from poor families. The school provides free education to girls who would otherwise (否则) have had no chance to study after finishing their nine years of compulsory education (义务教育).Though she had serious health problems, Zhang Guimei took morning classes with students for 12 years. She has also spent her free time visiting her stud ents’ families over the years and most of her money were spent on students. Since the school opened in 2008, it has seen more than 1,800 students progress to universities and colleges.On Feb 25, 2021 President Xi Jinping presented an award to Zhang Guimei to mark her accomplishments and contributions to education at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing (北京人民大会堂).1. Why are people deeply moved by the photo?A.Because the girl’s appearance catches their eye.B.Because they are familiar with Zhang’s face.C.Because it reminds them of the admirable woman.D.Because it spreads wildly on China’s social media.2. Which of the following best describes Zhang Guimei according to the passage?A.Wealthy and independent. B.Responsible and reliable .C.Devoted and famous. D.Determined and selfless.3. Where does the text probably come from?A.A news report. B.A biography. C.A history book. D.A storybook.3. We all need to eat, and when we go to buy food at the supermarket, we’re offered many choice. But we often buy food that’s been produced in huge amounts and that’s traveled many miles before it ends up on our plate. So for some, growing their own food is a better choice – and it tastes good too!From growing vegetables in little pots on your balcony to taking care of a small plot of land, there are many ways to produce home-grown food. It can be backbreaking work digging, weeding and watering the soil, but the result is fresh, home-grown fruits and vegetables, helping us keep a ‘five-a-day’ diet.The recent Covid-19 pandemic lock-down means demand for homegrown food has seen a comeback in the UK. Miriam Dobson from the University of Sheffield, told the BBC that some people have been spending a lot of their time on their plots, growing plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables – which, at times, have been challenging to buy in supermarkets. She says “Coronavirus has reminded people of the weakness within our global food system. In such a difficult time, interest in self-support rises.”But for those with limited space, a solution to grow your own vegetables lies closer to home – using pots. Sheila Brand lives in a third-floor flat in Rotterdam. She has managed to grow tomatoes and eggplants and is already harvesting raspberries. She told the BBC watching the p lants grow “is very exciting: 'Oh it's got a new leaf!' ”As well as the benefits of saving money and enjoying tasty food, growing your own from a balcony or window ledge not only improves your well-being and immediate environment, you can actually grow a lot of vegetables. So, maybe it’s time for us all to get planting and develop our green fingers!1. A “five-a-day” diet (Para. 2) probably refers to a diet that include__________ every day.A.Five meals B.Enough fruits and vegetablesC.Five kinds of rice D.Plenty of water2. According to Para 3, home-grown food is getting popular again in the UK recently because _____.A.It’s more interesting, cheap and delicious.B.our global food system is doing harm to us.C.It saves the time and money on transportation.D.it can be hard to buy fresh food during the pandemic.3. According to the writer, where can you grow your own food if you live in a small flat?A.In a pot. B.On a plate. C.In a garden. D.On the roof.4. What does the writer imply in the last sentence?A.Growing your own food can do good to your health.B.Growing your own food can make your fingers green.C.Growing your own food can improve your gardening skills.D.Growing your own food can bring your family more happiness.4. When you set a foot outside of your door to drop litter, go to a social event or go for a walk, thoughts like “I hope I don’t see anyone I know” or “please don’t talk to me may run through your mind”. I’ve also said such things to myself. Sometimes the last thi ng you want to do is to talk with someone, especially someone new.Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people? Do we think meeting new people is a waste of time? Or are we just lazy, thinking that meeting someone new really is a trouble?Communication is the key to life. We have been told that many times. Take the past generations, like our parents, for example. They seem to take full advantage of that whole “communication” idea because they grew up talking face to face while Generation Y grew up staring at screens.We spend hours of our days sitting on Facebook. We send messages to our friends and think about all of the things we want to say to certain people.Nowadays, we are so caught up in our little circle of friends—our comfort zone. We love it that they laugh at our jokes, understand our feelings and can read our minds. Most importantly, they know when we want to be alone. They just get us.Holding a conversation with someone new means agreeing with things that you don’t actually believe and being someone you think they want you to be — it is, as I said before, a trouble. It takes up so much energy, and at some point or another, it is too tiring.But meeting new people is important. Life is too short, so meet all the people you can meet, make the effo rt to go out and laugh. Remember, Every “hello” leads to a smile — and a smile is worth a lot.1. What do we learn about the author?A.He likes to be alone.B.He feels stressed out lately.C.He’s active in attending social events.D.He’s afraid of talki ng to others at times.2. What’s the problem of Generation Y in the author’s eyes?A.They rely on the Internet to socialize.B.They are less confident about themselves.C.They have difficulty in communicating.D.They are unwilling to make new friends.3. Why do many young people avoid meeting new people?A.They think it is troublesome.B.They are busy with their study.C.They fear to disappoint their old friends.D.They want to take time to do meaningful work .4. Why does the author write the text?A.To tell about the importance of friends.B.To give tips on how to meet new people.C.To encourage people to meet new people.D.To introduce the disadvantages of Generation Y.5. How to Create Good Study Habits for ExamsWith good study habits, you'll be able to reduce your stress and take tests and exams with confidence. You can create good study habits for exams by learning your course material.Read the course materials and texts. You should have a textbook for each course, and your teacher could also assign (指定) other books or articles for you to read. 1 Good study habits require that you read all of the assigned texts.2 write down the key points and topics you want to further research later while learning. Then it's a good idea to go through your notes and try to fill in any gaps where you missed items or didn't quite understand. As you study for your exams, look up any information that isn't clear to you so that you can get more information.Make yourself flash cards. Flash cards are a great way to study your material, especially vocabulary, key points, and lists. 3 you could use an online tool like Quizlet or Kahoot to create flashcards and practice quizzes.Make mind maps. Mind maps are graphical illustrations (插图) of your topic and a great memory tool to use, especially during exams. For example, you can create a web connecting the ideas you're studying, or create a doodle based on your notes. 4Ask someone to quiz you. 5 You can create example questions for them to ask you, have them question you from the review, or let them question you from your notes. This will show you if you need to review any topics before the actual exam.6. I once unplugged (拔掉电源插头) the TV for a month.

She was educated at home, learning Greek, Latin, and several other languages at an early age. In 1819, her father arranged for the printing of one of her poems, and she was 13 at the time.In 1821, Elizabeth injured her spine (脊椎) because of a fall. She spent most of her time in her room writing poetry. In 1844, Robert Browning wrote to Elizabeth admiring her poems. He continued to write to her and they were engaged (订婚) in 1845.Elizabeth’s father didn’t agree on the engagement. In 1846, Elizabeth and Robert secretly got married. Soon the couple ran off to Italy, where Elizabeth’s health improved. She continued to live in Italy for the rest of her life.In 1850, Elizabeth’s best-known book of poems Sonnets from the Portuguese was published. The book recorded the growth of her love for Robert. He often called her “my little Portuguese” because of her dark skin.Many of her poems expressed strong disagreement with what she considered unfair social conditions. She also wrote poems asking for political (政治的) freedom for Italy and other countries controlled by foreign nations.Elizabeth Barrett Browning died in 1861. Her son was born in 1849, and her husband returned to England after her death.51. Robert Browning was first attracted to Elizabeth Barrett because of .A. her poemsB. her beautyC. her special experiencesD. their love for writing52. We can learn from the third paragraph that .A. Elizabeth’s marriage was a failureB. Elizabeth lived a very difficult lifeC. Elizabeth m arried against her father’s willD. Elizabeth and Robert got married in Italy53. At what age did Elizabeth Barrett Browning die?A. 50.B. 55.C. 60.D. 65.BGoing back to the land can be done. It is called “living the simple life”. But we are so used to our computers, cell phones, and supermarkets; we don’t know the word “simple” anymore. In fact, it is not hard to grow a garden in your backyard if you own a home.We all have gotten lazy in the last two generations. All we seem to care about is who or what we can take from. The land that we are building on is starting to run out. The mountains are being torn down to make way for a million dollar home. Why not just build a simple home to blend in with (十分协调) the land?Before we could even think about returning to the land, we have to give the land back to the earth. Stop tearing down the forests for needless million dollar homes. Stop cutting into the mountains because you want to escape the truth around you. Stop ripping up the parks to make more highways.Plant more flowers so the bees can have a chance to survive. Plant a tree now and you may save the planet later. Pick up trash when you see it on the ground. We need to teach our children how to start conservation (保护) now before their generation has to live underground, or worse they won’t have a next generation.Today I walked outside and it is supposed to be winter, but it is 80 degrees. The flowers are blooming (开放) too early because we cannot control our habits of greed (贪婪). I cannot understand why we are killing the only place we have to live on. We can spend billions on needless things that pollute this planet, but we can’t spend pennies on seeds that would save this planet. What a shame!54.

But at a school in Florida, a girl has taken a bench and turned it into something entirely different —a place to find friends. It’s called the “Friendship Bench”. And it’s an idea of a girl, whose name is Acacia Woodley.Acacia’s attitude towards life can be reflected in a question she recently asked —“What if we spend as much time on kindness as we do on cruelty?” It’s a philosophy (人生观) Acacia has learned to live her own life. She was born without a right hand. And her left hand didn’t form properly. But Acacia says that cannot stop her from achieving her dreams. “You need to believe in your dreams. If you don’t believe in your dreams, I can definitely tell you that your dreams are not going to come true,” she said.Acacia came up with the idea after seeing kids get bullied (欺侮) at school. She says she has also experienced that — kids whispering about her or picking on her because she’s diffe rent.The Friendship Bench looks like other benches. It has armrests and a place to lean back. But there are also words painted on it —words such as “hope”, “respect”, “listen” and “dream”. Acacia put it together with the help from her mother and brother.Any time a kid feels like that he or she needs a friend, all that kid needs to do is sit on the bench. It is then up to other kids — or grownups — to fill that need. “It’s a perfect idea,” Lori, the principal of Palm Bay Elementary, said. “It’s something we need so badly.”The Friendship Bench has been such a success at Palm Bay Elementary that other schools are now considering having one, too. “There’s a saying in my classroom,” Acacia said. “It says, ‘If you can dream it, you can achieve it.’”57.
