阜蒙县第二高中2017~2018学年度第二学期高一期中考试英语试卷时间:100分钟分数:120分第一部分:阅读理解(共两节;第一节:共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)AOn the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle(迷宫) that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be?I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.Since then, I've been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some outofclass activities because you'll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn't straight A's.Most important of all, be who you are, whether you're a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.1. The main reason for the author's fear on his first day is that ________.A.he was not familiar with the new surroundingsB.his schoolmates were unfriendly to himC.he was unable to work out the puzzleD.his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry2. From the author's first day experience we can infer that ________.A.he didn't know the right way to classB.he got to school before classes beganC.he was fond of the school immediately.D.his home was far from the school3. After his first week at school, the author ________.A.was still not accustomed to the scheduleB.gradually adjusted himself to the new schoolC.found high school not so challenging as he had imaginedD.ran for monitor of his class against three other students4. According to the passage, the secret of the author's success lies mainly in________.A.making more friends B.getting more A's at schoolC.being who he really is D.joining in out of class activitiesBEvery day we go to school and listen to teachers, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends --- you are in a situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease in ordinary conversation but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.5. When you speak to the class, you should speak __________.A.as loudly as possible B.loudly C.in a lowvoice D.forcefully6. The situation in the class is _________ that in your house.A.not very different from B.not the same asC.the same as D.sometimes the same as7. The main idea of this passage is __________.A.that we should talk in different ways in different situationsB.that we must speak loudlyC.that we must keep silent at any time D.that we must talk with the classCLong bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”Drink Good Wet Root Beer.”Fill up with Pacific Gas.”Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless (鲁莽的) or daring, the ride can be as thrilling (惊心动魄的) as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap,with your hands on the armrests even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.8. According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A. Advertisements on the billboards.B. Films on television.C. Buses on the road.D. Gas stations.9. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To give the writer’s opinion about long bus trips.B. To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C. To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D. To describe the billboards along the road.10. The writer of this passage would probably favor .A. bus drivers who aren’t recklessB. driving aloneC. a television set on the busD. no billboards along the road11. The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because .A. the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB. they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in betweenC. the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD. both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.12. The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are.A. comfortableB. excitingC. tiringD. boringDTokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time.In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to go. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that, it is different when one wants to walk.At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London's Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when the night-clubs are closing and every-body wants to go home. There are 35,000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty(空的).During the day, most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time.In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.13. Tokyo is different from London in that ______.A. it has a larger populationB. there are more traffic jamsC. night clubs are sometimes emptyD. it is more difficult to go somewhere on foot14. Fires break out___________ in Tokyo according to the writer.A. not very oftenB. only several times a dayC. quite oftenD. very seldom15. Japanese trains ______A. often leave and arrive on timeB. are often crowdedC. are the main means people use to travel to and from workD. all of the above第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Everyone wants to achieve happiness and smile.16 How can you find real happiness and smile? By getting rich? In case you are scratching your head,looking for some reasons or ideas to be happy, here are a few.Throw an impromptu(即兴的) party. 17 An impromptu one increases the joy to a new level. And of course making other people happy is bound to have the same effect on you.Treat yourself. Sometimes all it takes to make one happy is a little ind ulgence(放纵). So, go ahead and grab a cup of coffee and sit inside a blanket with a good book! You will be surprised at how happy it makes you.18 Happiness can be transformed! When we feel happy and excited, it can lift the spirits of others. Your simple gesture can transform a person’s day and get him or her prepared to take on any challenge.Have a conversation with a parent. If you are like most kids, you possibly spend more time texting or surfing the Internet than talking to your family. 19 You will be surprised at the feeling of joy that it brings to you.Finally, don’t forget to be happy every day! While International Day of Happiness may come about only once a year, happiness is around you all day and night. 20A. You just have to seek it out and grab it.B. But life is hard,so it is very difficult to find real happiness and smile.C. Most of your family members show no interest in texting or the Internet.D.

I was curious.Growing up in Singapore, I had an unusual relationship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese, so they asked fortune tellers to decide my name, aiming for maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nonsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, roughly, “old”, “barley (薏米)” and “warm”.When I arrived in America for college at 18, I put on an American accent and abandoned my Chinese name. When I moved to Hong Kong in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage? I thought.In calligraphy, the idea is to copy the old masters’ techniques, thereby refining your own. Every week, though, my teacher would give uncomfortably on-the-nose assessments of my person. “You need to be braver,” he once observed. “Have confidence. Try to produce a bold stroke(笔画).” For years, I had prided myself on presenting an image of confidence, but my writing betrayed me.I was trying to make sense of this practice. You must visualize the word as it is to be written and leave a trace of yourself in it. As a bodily practice, calligraphy could go beyond its own cultural restrictions. Could it help me go beyond mine? My teacher once said to me, “When you look at the word, you see the body. Though a word on the page is two-dimensional, it contains multitudes, conveying the force you’ve applied, the energy of your grip, the arch of your spine.” I had been learning calligraphy to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself. Now I have sensed that the pleasure out of calligraphy allows me to know myself more fully.During a recent lesson, my teacher pointed at the word I had just finished, telling me: “This word is much better. I can see the choices you made, your calculations, your flow. Trust yourself. This word is yours.” He might as well have said, “This word is you.”4. What did the author initially think of her name “Chen Yiwen”?A.It was lucky so she gladly accepted it. B.She felt proud of its symbolic meaning.C.She understood the intention but still disliked it. D.Its strange pronunciation made her embarrassed.5. The author decided to learn calligraphy to ______.A.pick up a new hobby B.reconnect with her originC.gain insights into a new culture D.fit in with local community6. From the teacher’s words, the author learns that calligraphy ______.A.reflects the creator’s spirits B.comes from creative energyC.highlights the design of strokes D.depends on continuous practice7. What does the author intend to tell us?A.Appreciate what our culture offers. B.Find beauty from your inner self.C.A great teacher leads you to truth. D.We are the sum of what we create. Against the supposition that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as a result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming.Ozone(臭氧)levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer tree covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.8. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires mayA.result in a warming climateB.cause the forest fires to occur more frequentlyC.lead to a longer fire seasonD.protect the forests and the environment there9. The following are all the immediate effects after a forest fire EXCEPTA.large amounts of greenhouse gases enter the atmosphereB.the levels of ozone which is a type of oxygen increaseC.snow on the ground mirrors more sunlight back into spaceD.ashes from the fire fall on the ice surface and take in more radiation from the sun10. Earlier studies about northern forest firesA.analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climateB.indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphereC.suggest that people should take measures to protect the environmentD.suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming11. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia mayA.warm the climate as the supposition goesB.allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climateC.destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea iceD.help to gain more energy rather than release more energyImagine this. You need an image of a balloon for a work presentation and turn to an AI text-to- image generator, like Midjourney or DALL-E, to create a suitable image. You enter the prompt (提示词) “red balloon against a blue sky” but the generator returns an image of an egg instead.What’s going on? The generator you’re using may have been “poisoned”. What does this mean? Text-to-image generators work by being trained on large datasets that include millions or billions of images. Some of the generators have been trained by indiscriminately scraping online images, many of which may be under copyright. This has led to many copyright infringement (侵害) cases where artists have accused big tech companies of stealing and profiting from their work.This is also where the idea of “poison” comes in. Researchers who want to empower individual artists have rec ently created a tool named “Nightshade” to fight back against unauthorised image scraping. The tool works by slightly altering an image’s pixels (像素) in a way that confuses the computer vision system but leaves the image unaltered to a human’s eyes. If an organization then scrapes one of these images to train a future AI model, its data pool becomes “poisoned”. This can result in mistaken learning, which makes the generator return unintended results. As in our earlier example, a balloon might become an egg.The higher the number of “poisoned” images in the training data, the greater the impact. Because of how generative AI works, the damage from “poisoned” images also affects related prompt keywords. For example, if a “poisoned” image of a Picasso work is us ed in training data, prompt results for masterpieces from other artists can also be affected.Possibly, tools like Nightshade can be abused by some users to intentionally upload “poisoned” images in order to confuse AI generators. But the Nightshade’s deve loper hopes the tool will make big tech companies more respectful of copyright. It does challenge a common belief among computer scientists that data found online can be used for any purpose they see fit.Human rights activists, for example, have been concerned for some time about the indiscriminate use of machine vision in wider society. This concern is particularly serious concerning facial recognition. There is a clear connection between facial recognition cases and data poisoning, as both relate to larger questions around technological governance. It may be better to see data poisoning as an innovative solution to the denial of some fundamental human rights.12. The underlined word “scraping” (para. 2) is closest in meaning to ____.A.facilitating B.collecting C.damaging D.polishing13. According to the passage, adding poisoned data might ____.A.increase the accuracy of returned informationB.cause users to forget the prompt key wordsC.interfere with the training of generative AID.discriminate against great masterpieces14. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A.Data poisoning is somehow justified to direct attention to human rights.B.Computer scientists has learned to respect the copyright of most artists.C.Nightshade is being abused by human rights activists to recognize faces.D.The issue of technological governance has aroused the lawyers’ interest.15. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Data Poisoning: Government Empowering Citizens to Protect ThemselvesB.Data Poisoning: Addressing Facial Recognition Issues Among ArtistsC.Data Poisoning: Risks and Rewards of Generative AI Data TrainingD.Data Poisoning: Restricting Innovation or Empowering Artists“TALKING with you for one night is better than studying books for ten years” this was the comment of an old Chinese scholar after he had had a conversation with a friend. 16 And today thephrase “a night’s talk” has become a current expression for a happy conversation with a friend at night, either past or expected.Such a supreme pleasure as having a perfect conversation with a friend at night is necessarily rare, for as the playwright Li Liweng has pointed out,“ 17 The discovery of a man up in a mountain temple, who really understands life and at the same time understands the art of conversation, must therefore be one of the keenest pleasures, like the discovery of a new planet by an astronomer or of a new variety of plant by a botanist.There is an evident distinction between mere talking and conversation as such. This distinction is made in the Chinese language between shuohua (speaking) and tanhua (conversation), which implies that in conversation the language used is more chatty and leisurely and the topics more trivial and less business like.18 We can discuss business with almost any person, but there are very few people with whom we can truly hold a night's conversation. Hence, when we do find a true conversationalist, the pleasure is equal to, if not above, that of reading a delightful author, with the additional pleasure of hearing his voice and seeing his gestures.19 There will be chats about ghosts and fox spirits, mixed with amusing tales or 39 impassioned comments: on international affairs, and sometimes before we know it, a wise observer and conversationalist may shed light on things that have bothered you for a long time. 20Hey!

But Marielle didn’t want these presents for herself. She wanted to give them to other people.At school, Marielle’s teacher taught, “You can’t always be self-centered. You have to be other-centered.” Marielle’s class had helped collect supplies for a school in Nigeria. But Marielle wanted to do more.With help from her parents, Marielle researched local charities and found a shelter that helps women and children in need. After finding out what supplies the shelter needed, Marielle included a list with each party invitation. Her friends brought shelter suppli es instead of birthday presents to Marielle’s party. People who couldn’t come to her party still gave gifts, as did her school. She had so many gifts that they filled her family’s truck! “It was like we were going on vacation,” Marielle said with a smile. “I couldn’t even put my bag in there.” She said it was fun to watch the number of donations (捐赠物) grow. In the end, she collected $650 in cash donations and more than $1,000 worth of supplies for the shelter.When Marielle went with her parents to drop off the supplies, people at the shelter surprised her with another birthday party. They had made her a cake and gave her a card signed by everyone at the shelter.Marielle hopes other children will hear about her special birthday and choose their own charity to support. “I felt really good when I did it,” she said. “You’re not just giving them something; you’re helping them with their whole life.”24. Why did Marielle ask for many unusual birthday gifts?A. To satisfy her own need.B. To show off to her friends.C. To help a school in Nigeria.D. To support people in need.25.

Unusual suppliesCThe Golden Gate Bridge was the longest bridge in the world from 1937 when it was completed until the Verrazano Narrows Bridge was built in New York in 1964. Today, it is still the ninth longest bridge in the world.For many years before the Golden Gate Bridge was built, the only way to get across San Francisco Bay was by ship. And by the early twentieth century the Bay was crowded because of them. In the 1920s, engineer and bridge-builder Joseph Strauss believed that a bridge should be built across the Golden Gate to solve the problem.Many groups went against him, each for their own selfish reasons. Besides, the engineering challenge was also huge — the Golden Gate Bridge area often has winds of up to 60 miles per hour, and strong ocean currents (洋流) sweep below the surface. If all that weren’t enough, it was the middle of the Great Depression, and funds were hard to find.Strauss didn’t give up, and the Golden Gate Bridge history began when San Francisco officials approved (批准) $35 million to build the Golden Gate Bridge. After the artistic design and red color were chosen, construction (建造) work began in 1933. The Golden Gate Bridge project was completed in 1937, an important datein San Francisco history.Strauss was a pioneer in building safety. The Bay Bridge, which was being built at the same time cost 24 lives while the Golden Gate Bridge cost only 12, a greatachievement in a period of time when one man was killed on most construction projects for every million spent.28. What do we know about the Golden Gate Bridge?A. It remained the world’s longest bridge for 30 years.B. It was the widest bridge worldwide when completed.C. It is of the same age as the Verrazano Narrows Bridge.D. There are only 8 bridges worldwide longer than it now.29. Why did Strauss want to build the Golden Gate Bridge?A. To prove his artistic ability.B. To build the world’s longest bridge.C. To solve traffic jams at San Francisco Bay.D. To make crossing San Francisco Bay possible.30. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. The necessity for building the bridge.B. The hard time of the Great Depression.C. The bad weather in the Golden Gate Bridge area.D. The difficulties in building the Golden Gate Bridge.31. Which of the following words can best describe Strauss?A. Honest.B. Patient.C. Warm-hearted.D. Strong-minded.DThe Model T, created by Henry Ford, changed the way Americans live, work and travel. On October 1, 1908, the Ford Motor Company introduced the Model T. The car came only in black. But at $850, it cost about half as much as other cars on the market. Henry Ford’s great improvement in an automobile assembly line (汽车装配线) made the Model T the first car to be affordable for most Americans. For the firsttime car ownership became a reality for normal American workers, not just the wealthy.Assembly-line production allowed the price of the touring car to be lowered from $850 in 1908 to less than $300 in 1925. At that time half of all the cars inthe United States were Model Ts. Even before it lost favour to larger and more powerful cars, the Model T, known as the “Tin Lizzie,” had become an American symbol, basically realizing Ford’s goal to “democratize the automobile.”Henry Ford founded the Ford Motor Company in 1903. At first, Ford built only a few cars a day. Because demand (需求) for Model Ts was so high, Ford developed a way to make more of them without increasing cost. In 1913, he invented a moving assembly line. Workers stood in front of a conveyor belt (传送带), and each completed one step in putting the cars together.Ford’s method of mass production changed life in the U.S. More people could travel. Highways grew.The Ford Motor Company stopped making the Model T in 1927. But the automotive lifestyle had taken hold of America. Today, the race is on to make cars more efficient and to find green energy to power them. Will inventors with Ford’s creativity bring the next revolution?32. What made the Model T affordable for common American people?A. Its old style.B. Its small engine.C. Comparatively cheap car labor.D. A more developed method of production.33. What can we learn about the Model T?A. It had many different colors.B. It was mostly owned by the wealthy.C. It became cheaper from 1908 to 1925.D. It was the first car built by Americans.34. What does the underlined word “democratize” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Popularize.B. Develop.C. Change.D. Sell.35. What is the author’s attitude to the Model T?A. He doubts it.B. He thinks highly of it.C. He feels it needs changes.D. He has mixed feelings about it.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。
