高中英语真题:2016-2017学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题Word版.doc一、阅读理解(共4题)1.For a year and half, kids sent hurtful messages like “You are ugly.” or “Why are you still alive?” to Rebecca Sedwic k. In 2013, Rebecca, then 12, couldn’t stand it anymore. She took her own life near her home in Florida. Soon afterward, Trisha Prabhu read about the story. “I was surprised and heart-broken,” said Trisha, now 15, who is from Naperville, Illinois, “I kn ow that I had to do something to stop this from happening again.”Trisha did some research. Studies show that one fourth to half of all teens in the US have been cyberbullied (网络欺凌). Experts say that if you are ever bullied online, you should tell a trusted adult. Tell the cyberbully to stop, and prevent him or her from contacting you again. Print and save messages to share with the police. This is good advice, agrees Trisha. But these methods all take place after the bullying has already happened. Trisha had a differentidea. Why not teach cyberbullies to stop before they post these messages?Trisha’s research won awards, including a prize in the Google Science Fair. Then, Tresah built the ReThink app (应用软件). It is programmed to recognize words or phrases that could be hurtful. When that happens, different warning messages come out. “Don’t say things that you may regret later!” says one message. Others ask, “Are you sure you want to say this?” and “Are these words really yours?”Now Trisha is working on a version(版本) of ReThink for computers. “I am a big dreamer,” she says. “I want to stop cyberbullying before the hurt is done.”21. What do we know about Rebecca Sedwick?A. She was one of Trisha’s best friends.B. She sent hurtful messages to others.C. She ended her life at the age of 12.D. She went to Florida to study further.22. What is Trisha’s suggestion for stopping cyberbullying?A.Stop talking with the cyberbully.B.Stop the messages before they are sent.C.Turn to your parents or close friends.D.Show the messages to the police at once.23. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. How the ReThink app works.B. Trisha’s research on cyberbullying.C. People’s attitudes to the ReThink app.D. The Google ScienceFair.24. Which of the following can best describe Trisha?A. Honest and careful.B. Strange and impatient.C. Proud and impolite.D. Helpful and clever.2.

Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart. They will in a lifetime, push thechromeplated_contraptions many mile s. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging groceries around in baskets they had to carry.One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers beganarriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention.But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts.“Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?”one shopper replied.But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假的) customers.As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come —those who came bought more. With larger easiertohandle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason why Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—the coming of the shopping cart.28. What do the underlined words“chromeplated contraptions” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Shopping carts.B. Suitcases.C. Private cars.D. Baskets.29. What was the purpose of Goldman’s invention?A. It was to re duce the burden of his employees’work.B. It was to prove him to be a good inventor.C. It was to make shopping easier and attract more business.D. It was to help the disabled make shopping easily in his market.30. Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market in order to ________.A. attract people to buy things in his marketB. make his market different from the othersC. keep the groceries from being stolenD. encourage people to use his shopping carts31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Goldman will become very famous because of his invention.B. Supermarket business has benefited a lot from Goldman’s invention.C. Goldman’s invention will be regarded as the greatest one in the world.D. There will be nothing that can replace Goldman’s invention.4. Getting older is a natural part of life. Changes as you get older are usually gradual. Certain physical changes are common. How fast your body can burn calories slows over time, which means that your body needs less food energy than before. How much and how well you sleep will likely change. Most people start needing reading glasses around forty, and many have some hearing loss later in life. Starting in your fifties, bone aging increase.How you feel as you get older depends on many things, including what health problems run in your family and the choices you make.If your family members have diseases or chronic (慢性的) health problems like high blood pressure, then you may have a greater chance of having those problems yourself. But it doesn’t mean you will definitely have the same problems. Actually, the lifestyle choices you make can help reduce your chances of getting illness that run in your family. And even if you do get a family illness, choosing to be physically active, to eat healthy foods, and to learn how to deal with stress can keep the illness from destroying your abilityto enjoy your golden years.What do you need to do to feel your best as you age? One of the most important things you can do for your health at any age is to be physically active. Physical activity keeps your body strong, and it helps with how you feel. People who stay active are less likely to get depressed.Your mental and emotional health is also important. Protect or improve your emotional health by staying in touch with friends, family, and the community. People who feel connected to others are more likely to feel happy than those who do not.32. When people get older, they will _______.A. go through some physical problemsB. look back to their past oftenC. consume more caloriesD. need some help33. Which of the following can NOT mostly affect old people’s health?A. Their family illness.B. Their income.C. Their eating habits.D. Their relationship with others34. The underlined phrase“golden years” in paragraph 3 refer to a person’s ________.A. futureB. holidaysC. later lifeD. leisure time35. How can old people avoid loneliness according to the text?A. To make new friends.B. To live with their family members.C. To be physically active.D. To have enough social connections.二、未分类(共2题)1.

One day, I was teaching my daughter how to paint. I saw that a lot of her energy went into 41 her brush into the paint, and then into a bowl of water. But then most of the paint that was on the 42 would just disappear in the water. As an 43 mother, I was thinking, “I am trying to teach you how to paint on paper and what are you doing? This is not what you are 44 to do. You have to do this way.”But she is three years old so she is probably not going to 45 doing it the right way. She had so much 46 dipping the brush in the paint and in the water bowl. Pretty much within an hour, most of the paint was all over the room and I just sat there with my hands 47 my head thinking, “Oh my god, this girl is hopeless.” Soon after, however, she shouted, “Mama, when I 48 pink and blue, it turns purple!”I was surprised. 49 I was thinking that she was wasting perfectly good paint and paper, she 50 learned something. What would have been a very theoretical(理论的) experiment turned into a very 51 experiment.I am a designer and work with software like Photoshop and Illustrator. When my daughter sees me work on the 52 , she is always very curious and she wants to work with me on the same thing that I do. She starts to 53 with buttons, and in that process, sometimes lands up 54 me things! There will be many times when she will find 55 new. I will ask her 56 , and she will tell me, “I pressed this, and I pressed this, and then this happened.”One of the things I realized from this is that everyone has a(n) 57 way of learning things. When I was growing up, I 58 to literature very well, so everything that was turned into a story became my way of learning and 59 different concepts. Some kids understand through art, some understand through math and games, and it’s the job of a parent or a teacher to watch and 60 how children learn and try their best to make these experiences educational.41.

And you need a good understanding of what makes one marketing channel right for one situation,but not not her.24.According to Paragraph 1,there are no______.A.cheap ads.B.unsuccessful ads.C.perfect ads.D.all-purpose ads.25.What is the best way to promote a business?ing a channel that serves all of your budget.B.Putting ads on various channels at the same time.C.Creating an ad that appeals to all your customers.D.Advertising on a channel available to consumers.26.When it comes to choosing an ad for a business,we should________.A.stay away from TV advertising.B.choose it based on the specific situation.C.advertise on the radio or on the newspaper.D.choose it according to your customers’ budget.27.Before deciding on a marketing channel,you need to_____.A.ask for your customers’ advicepare different advertisingC.realize the problems with your businessD.make research about all related factorsCFacing increasing pressure to raise students’ scores on standardized tests,schools are urging kids to work harderby offering them obvious encouragements.Happy Meals are at the low end of the scale.With the help of businesses, schools are also giving away cars,iPods,seats to basketball games,and—in a growing number of cases—cold,hard cash.The appeal of such programs is obvious,but the consequences of tying grades to goods are still uncertain.It’s been a common tradition in middle-class families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life.But for many disadvantaged minority children,the long-term benefits of getting an education are not so clear,according to experts.No one knows for sure how well cash and other big-ticket rewards work in education in the long run.But there are plenty of concerns that this kind of practice could have negative effects on kids.Virginia Shiller,a clinical psychologist,says that it’s worth experimenting with cash encouragements but that tying them to success on a test is not a worthwhile goal.“I’d rather see rewards based on effort and responsibility—things that will lead to success in life,” she says.Even if rewards don’t lead to individual achievement on a test,they could have a meaningful effect in the school.Charles McVean,a businessman and philanthropist(慈善家),started a tutoring program which pays higher-achieving students $10 an hour to tutor struggling classmates and divides them into teams.During the course of the year,students bond and compete.The team posting the highest math scores wins the top cash prize of $100. McVean calls the combination of peer(同龄人)tutoring,competition,and c ash encouragements a recipe for “nothing less than magic”.For its part,the Seminole County Public Schools system in Florida plans to continue its report card encouragement program through the rest of the school year.The local McDonald’s resta urants help the poor district by paying the $1,600 cost of printing the report card.Regina Klaers,the district spokeswoman,says most parents don’t seem bothered by the Happy Meals rewards.“There are many ways we try to urge students t o do well,and sometimes it’s through the stomach,and sometimes it’s the probability of students winning a car,” she says,“One size doesn’t fit all.”28.According to the text,it is a common practice for schools to________.A.offer free meals to students with high scoresB.tie students’ grades to material rewardscate students to from a business senseD.cooperate with business to improve teaching29.According to the text,the long-term results of giving students cash as rewards in education are_____.A.negativeB.optimisticC.uncertainD.disappointing30.The tutoring program run by Charles McVean_______.A.hires some excellent teachers to teach the struggling studentsB.has a meaningful effect in inspiring students’ enthusiasm on studyC.is a program combining tutoring,competition and future job offersD.rewards the student with the highest scores with cash prize of $10031.We can learn that in Seminole County_____.A.there are various ways to inspire students to study hardB.many parents are not satisfied with the Happy Meals rewardsC.the local McDonald’s restaurants provide the rewards for poor studentsD.people are searching for a good-for-all method to urge students to do wellDIf you’re making determination for a healthier new year,consider a gut makeover(肠道清理).Changing your microbe community(微生物群),however,may not be easy,and nobody knows how long it might take.That’s because the ecosystem already established in your gut has been shaped by a daily diet of hamburgers and pizza,for example,it won’t respond as quickly to a healthy diet as a gut shaped by vegetables and fruits that has a more varied microbe community.“The nutrit ional value of food is influenced in part by the microbe community that en-counters that food,” said Dr Jeffrey Gordon,the senior author of the new paper and director of the Center for Genome Science and Systems Biology at the Washington University School of Medicine in St.Louis.Nutritional components of a healthy diet have to be viewed from “the inside out,” he said,“not just the outside in.”One of the questions the study set out to answer was how individuals with different diets respond when they try to improve their eating habits.The scientists harvested gut bacteria from humans,transplanted them into mice bred under germ-free conditions,and then fed the mice either American-style or plan-based diets.The scientists them analyzed changes in the mice’s microbe communities.Of interest,the scientists harvested the gut bacteria from people who followed sharply different diets.One group are a fairly typical American diet.consuming about 3.00 calories a day,high in animal proteins with few fruits and vegetables.Some of the their favorite foods were processed cheese and lunch meat.The other group consisted of people who were calorie-restricted.They are less than 1,800 calories a day and had carefully tracked what they are for at least the other group,a third fewer carbohydrates(碳水化合物)and only half the fat.This calorie-restricted group,the researchers found,had a far richer and more diverse microbe community in the gut than those eating a typical American diet.They also carried several kinds of “good” b acteria,known to promote health,that are unique to their plant-based diet.“Perhaps the best way to shape a healthier microbe community is to eat more fiber by consuming more fruit,vegetables,whole grains,and nuts or seeds,”said Meghan Jardine,a dietitian who was not involved in the current study but has published articles on promoting healthy microbe communities.She urges people to aim for 40 to 50 grams of fiber daily,well above levels recommended by most dietary guidelines.32.What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?A.Changing microbiome is fairly difficult.B.Ecosystem in gut is shaped by carbohydrates.C.Nutritional components are determined by food intake.D.Microbe community shaped by vegetables and fruit respond less quickly than that shaped by junk food.33.What can we learn about Meghan Jardine?A.She suggests eating as less as possible.B.She attaches great importance to fiber.C.She is one of the researchers of the current study.D.She advocates consuming more meat in daily life.34.What’s the author’s attitude toward gut makeover?A.Concerned.B.Opposed.C.Indifferent.D.Nervous.35.Which is the best title for the text?A.Microbe community in our gut.B.A gut makeover for the new year.C.Dietary guidelines for daily diets.D.The best way towards a healthier microbe community.笫二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Becoming Refreshed Without SleepingSometimes there is just not enough hours in the day to get everything done and get a good night’s rest.36 Once in a while you can get away with a sleepless night and still feel reasonably good by adjusting your meals and activities.●37 The last thing you want to do when you are tired is get warm and cosy; this will cause you to fall asleep.Keeping the air conditioner on will make you feel much more awake and refreshed.●Eat small

They c ome and visit some of the most famous places in England: Bi g Ben, the Tower of London and the River Thames.You can see some of the most interesting places in London b y getting on the tour buses. Or you can take a ride on the Lon don Eye. This large wheel slowly takes you 135m above the River Thames.The River Thames is London’s main waterway. It has shaped the capital’s landscape, history and geography. So one of the best ways of making sense of the city is to take a trip along th e river.The clock tower of the House of Parliament, Big Ben, has bec ome one of the main symbols of London. The sound of the bel l, which you can hear at the beginning of many television and radio programmes has become well-known throughout the nation.No visit to London is complete without a look at the Tower of London, in the eastern part of the city. After Big Ben, the Tow er may be London’s most visited tourist spot. Directly south is Tower Bridge, which is more than 100 years old.Among all the palaces in London, Buckingham Palace is the most famous. It has been the main London home of the royal family since Queen Victoria moved there in 1837. You can visi t some of the rooms in August and September. And most mor nings of the year you can watch the soldiers outside changing the guard.About one hour by train out of London is the town of Windsor. Here you can visit another of the Queen’s homes---Windsor Castle. There was a fire in 1992 and many of the roo ms were badly burned. But now they are full of beautiful pictur es, tables and chairs again.Sightseeing in London is great, but it can get very tiring. So, t he best way to start the day is to fill up with an English breakf ast.You can buy an English breakfast in nearly every hotel, and at many restaurants and cafes. An English pub is a good place t o stop for lunch and a drink. You can get hot or cold food and try one of England’s many ales (浓啤酒). Fish and chips are also a traditional English meal. So look out for fish and chip shops in cities as well as by the sea. Or you can sit outside one of the many roadside pubs and caf es in London, and simply watch the busy world go by.27. The underlined word “landscape”(paragraph3) is closest i n meaning to ______.A. sightsB. interestC. growthD. travel28. Which place may be London’s most visited tourist spot?A. The River ThamesB.

Because this doesn’t happen to only one specific family, many experts warn us that there can be some serious effects of children watching violence on television.Children who become addicted(上瘾的) to TV sit down and turn on the TV as soon as they get home. Although they have lots of homework, they become absorbed in TV programs. Since they spend tons of time watching TV, they have less time to enjoy real life activities such as playing with friends, playing outdoor sports, or enjoying other kinds of entertainment. There are too many violent scenes on TV. Some experts say there are 25 acts of violence per hour on TV. In addition, there are many experiments by psychologists which show how TV violence influences children. Finally, people worry that children tend to imitate what they watch on TV and may start to behave more violently.What should be done? First of all, the government should regulate TV violence. It should also encourage people to invent and develop new technology which can block violent scenes from试卷第2页,共11页the programs children watch. For example, with a rating system(分级制度) and the V-chip, unfit scenes of violence and sex can be blocked out. Second, parents should monitor what their children watch. At the same time, they should make their children interested in real life activities. Then when the children start to spend more time playing with friends or reading books, parents can stop their monitoring.It is a fact that there is more violence on TV today than there was ten years ago. Moreover, violent incidents occur more frequently in real life. It’s time to realize how harmful watching TV violence is, and it’s time to keep our children from watching vi olence. 1、What experts really worry is that .\ A .children spend too much time watching TV B .TV violence has a bad influence on children C .children become addicted to TV programs D .children have less time to do their homework2、The author explain how the government should control TV violence by . A .giving an example B .giving a definition C .making a comparison D .presenting research findings3、What does the underlined word ―imitate‖ in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A .Explain. B .Copy. C .Ignore. D .Avoid.4、What is the author’s purpose for writing this text? A .To express his own worries about TV violence. B .To ask parents to take good care of their children. C .To inform readers of the latest situation about TV violence. D .To call on the whole society to save children from violence.I had the honor of being elected chief of my tribe(部落). With the title came great responsibility. It was my job to make peace with the Maori Tamaki tribe, whose village we visited. Their warriors leapt from a canoe and faced us down with fierce growls, bulging eyes and much swishing of sticks. They laid a palm frond on the ground and, as head honcho, I was compelled to accept this peace offering by picking it up, then touching noses with their chief. ―Kia ora‖, hesaid, welcoming us into the woodland home of his people.My ―tribe‖ was my New Zealand tour group, who had forced me into being their leader.We’d been warned that the ceremony was a serious occasion and that to laugh or even smile would be considered rude to the Tamaki. After that it was non-stop fun as they showed their ancient customs and I received instruction in performing the haka, the war dance by the All Blacks rugby team.Then they pulled our dinner of lamb, beef and vegetables out of the ground. It had beenslow-cooked in the heat that simmers just below the surface in the geothermal(地热的) area of North Island, a Maori tradition known as a hangi that goes back an extremely long period of time.Obviously, this form of it is put on for tourists but it was hugely enjoyable. The journey back to the hotel was alone worth the effort, our hilarious Maori elder driver being deserving of his own television show. ―The wheels on the bus go round and round,‖ he got us singing, while he circuited(绕……环行) a roundabout three times.A couple of days from the end of my trip, there was still something missing, a New Zealand icon I yearned to see to make my grand tour complete. Riding over a hill, there it was –Aotearoa. The Maori name for New Zealand translates as ―Land of the long white cloud‖. CanI say ―Kia ora, Aotearoa?‖ You bet I can.5、Which refers to the Maori cooking custom?A.Kia ora. B.Haka.C.Tamaki. D.Hangi.6、What does the author think of the driver?A.He was good at singing.B.He made the journey memorable.C.He was not familiar with the road.D.He performed well on a TV show.7、What is the best title for the text?A.A Taste of Maori Culture.B.Hello, New ZealandC.The Honor of Being a tribe ChiefD.The Best of New Zealand试卷第4页,共11页World Book Day falls on April 23 every year .It was set up by the United Nations Educational,Scientific, and Cultural Organization(UNESCO) in 1995 to encourage people, especially teenagers, to discover the pleasure of reading .It is also the day to honor great writers ,for example ,William Shakespeare ,born or dead on that day .Many countries celebrate World Book Day .Take UK as an example .On that day ,millions of school children can buy books of special price ,a much lower price than usual ,in any bookstore .It has been done every year since 1998.World Book Day is also celebrated in China. Our Former Premier Wen Jiabao, a bookworm, who does lots of reading every day, has called on people to do more reading. He suggested that young people should spend more time reading ."Books cannot change the world, but people can change the world by changing themselves through reading,‖ he said .Why do people like reading? One big advantage is that reading helps us become more knowledgeable and more intelligent. Also, reading helps us to follow the latest developments of science and technology. Besides, reading gives us information about other cultures and places of the world. When we read, we may find many things that are unfamiliar to us. We would have to use our brain to think about them or do more reading to find out the answers. The more we read, the more we know. What’s more, reading is also one of the most important ways to learn a foreign language like English ."Reading makes a full man" (Bacon ,1597). Books ,magazines ,newspapers and other kinds of materials can help us to know more about the outside world and perfect us. So it is necessary for us to spend time on reading every day .8、World Book Day was set up in order to encourage people to . A .buy more books B .do more readingC .learn foreign languagesD .know more about science 9、In the UK ,what will school children do on World Book Day? A .They will give away some books to those poor families’ children. B .They will go to the library in order to read as many books as possible. C .They will buy books of much lower price than usual in any bookstore. D .They will organize some activities in memory of William Shakespeare. 10、How many advantages of reading are mentioned in the passage? A .Two. B .Three. C .Four. D .Five.11、The underlined words ― a bookworm‖ in Paragraph 2 probably mean .A.a person who loves reading B.a person who likesreadingC.a person who loves collecting D.a person who likes buyingbooksFour books that will inspire you to travel the worldThere’s truly nothing like travel when it comes to gaining perspective(远景) and exposing yourself to other cultures.
