I would always say that I was trying to study, but there were always things like work and my kids that would not allow me to start.Now I realized that those were only excuses. What stopped me was that I was afraid to start studying again. I always believed I would learn by myself.One day, however, my son told me that he was sad because his friends would come over and I didn’t understand them because I didn’t speak English. He was also sad because I could never help him with his homework. That same day, I told myself, “Rocio, you have to start believing in yourself and you will see you can make it.”The next day, I went downtown to look for a big banner (横幅) in front of the school which said that they offered classes for adults. I came in to see if I could join, but the classes were closed already. That night I took the kids to the movies, and on the way back, I told them we would take a new route. I ended up getting lost. That’s the way I found Chaffey College. The following Monday, I went to ask for information. They told me that summer school was starting that week.That’s how I started studying English last summer. It is difficult, but I havehad great rewards. My daughter had written a story for school. It was about the female they most admired and why. She wrote that I was the person she most admired because I had started going to college. I will never forget this.4．According to the passage, the author probably is a ________.A．teacher B．doctor C．father D．mother5．What made the author make up her mind to study English?A．What her son said.B．What her daughter said.C．Thinking about herself.D．Thinking about her daughter.6．How did they find Chaffey College?A．On the way to the movies.B．They took a new route and got lost.C．Ask a stranger for information.D．According to the banner.7．Which of the following is NOT true?A．The author came to the United States from another country.B．The author had two children including one daughter.C．What really changed the author’s life was that she believed in herself. D．The author wrote that she was the person her son most admired.Have you ever wondered if you see the same colours as other people? Most people know what blue is when they see it. They call it "blue” because they were taught the word and connected it with what they saw. But how do you know what you see as blue isn’t someone else s red?The ability to perceive (感知) different colours is up to receptors (接受器) in our eyes. Light waves hit these receptors and they react depending on which colour the light is, sending signals to the brain. The brain then reads these signals to determine which colour light the eyes are receiving.Some people’s receptors are more developed than others. The inability of thereceptor to feel the light waves correctly means that some people cannot tell the differences between similar colours.Those with more developed receptors can see more colours. We sometimes hear people having an argument about whether something is dark blue or black. It might be because one person has stronger receptors to feel the light than another.In the past, most scientists would argue that everyone saw colours in the same way. However, research was conducted on monkeys, in which their receptors were changed. This enabled them to see more colours than usual. Normally monkeys can only see blue and green, but the change allowed them to see red. Their brains automatically (自动地) got used to new colours. This suggests that our brains may adapt depending on our stimulus (刺激) and find new colors of the things we see. Colours could be a very personal experience, unique to everyone.So, the next time you talk about your favourite colour, just remember if yours is blue and your friend says red, you two might actually be thinking about the same colour. What if everyone in the world has the same favourite colour, but just calls it different names?8．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A．How we perceive colours.B．The inability to see colours.C．What the brain does with signals.D．The connection between receptors and light waves.9．Which of the following might the author agree with?A．Some people cannot feel colours with their developed receptors.B．The more light people feel, the weaker receptors they have.C．People with poor receptors usually have colour weakness.D．People who have strong receptors can see dark blue.10．What’s the purpose of conducting the research on monkeys?A．To test the monkeys with colours.B．To develop the receptors of humans.C．To enable monkeys to find more colors.D．To prove everyone sees colours in a different way.11．Where does the text probably come from?A．A film review. B．A science magazine.C．An art magazine. D．A business newspaper.As teenagers grow up, it can be easy for some to form bad habits. To prevent harmful habits from dominating a teenager’s life is necessary. They must learn to recognize bad habits early and make proper changes. To change bad habits isn’t easy, even with many tries.According to modern psychology(心理学)，we must first learn about the “habit cycle”， which works like this:Firstly, there is a “cue”, an action, event, or situation that acts as a signal to do something. Secondly, there is a “routine”, the regular action you take in response to the cue. Thirdly, there is the “reward”, the good thing or feeling we get from the routine. For example, when we feel unhappy (cue), we eat lots of unhealthy snacks (routine) which makes us feel happy (reward). The reward makes us much more likely to continue the cycle, and the bad habit of depending on unhealthy snacks is formed.To help a positive change in our bad habits, we must first check our bad habit cycles and then try to adapt them. We can do this by applying habit cycles with our own positive ideas. For example, we could try to replace a negative routine with something more positive. So, when we feel unhappy again (cue), rather than eat snacks, we could listen to some favourite music instead (routine), which will make us feel relaxed(reward).Besides changing bad habits,we can also use the habit cycle to create good habits.For example,when we come to a lift (cue), our normal routine is to ride it,but we could change this routine into something more positive by taking the stairs instead.Although changing bad habits takes time, yet by showing some self-control and taking many small steps repeatedly we will build a happy and healthy life full of good habits!12．Which word can best replace the underlined word “dominating” in paragraph 1? A．Benefiting.B．Controlling.C．Valuing.D．Recollecting.13．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A．How “habit cycle” works.B．Why “habit cycle” should be carried out.C．What benefits “habit cycle” can bring to us.D．When and where “habit cycle” should be used.14．How can we changing our bad habits?A．By putting our own positive ideas into habit cycles.B．By checking our bad habit cycles and getting used to them.C．By listening to some favourite music and relaxing ourselves.D．By replacing a positive routine with something more negatives.15．Which is the right routine in the habit cycle when you feel stressed and want to get energetic?A．Eating much junk food.B．Staying up to watch football matches.C．Playing basketball with friends.D．Playing computer games for a long time.二、五选五Last month we asked our students about their free time activities.Our questions were about exercise,use of the Internet and watching TV. 16 We found that only fifteen percent of our students exercise every day.Forty-five percent exercise four to six times a week.Twenty percent exercise only one to three times a week.17We all know that many students often go online,but we were surprised that ninety percent of them use the Internet every day.The other ten percent use it at leastthree or four times a week.Most students use it for fun and not for homework.18 Only two percent of the students watch TV one to three times a week.Thirteen percent watch TV four to six times a week.And eighty-five percent watch TV every day!Although many students like to watch sports,game shows are the most popular.It is good to relax by using the Internet or watching game shows, 19 It is healthy for the mind and the body.Exercise such as playing sports is fun,and you can spend time with your friends and family as you play together.And remember,“Old habits die hard.”20A．So start exercising before it’s too late!B．And twenty percent do not exercise at all.C．but we think the best way to relax is through exercise.D．Here are the results.E．The answers to our questions about watching television were also interesting.三、单项选择21．—Tom, did you ever see _____ book that I bought with you last week?—No, but Dad saw____ book under the bed this morning.

ASunday, 31 AugustWe’ve been in China for a month now. Dad, Mom, Harry and I moved to Tianjin on 25 August. We’re not very far from Beijing. Two days ago, we celebrated my 16th birthday. It was great celebrating in China; the only thing that was strange was the cake—here they’re not as sweet as the ones in New York. On Monday school starts—I wonder what it will be like.Monday, 1 SeptemberOn my first day I was looking around for a locker to put my books in. However, here all the students keep all of their books at their desks. We stay in the same classroom because apparently we don’t have to go from class to class—teachers come to us!Today we selected teacher assistants for each subject. Their duties are to collect homework, make announcements, and do other things for the teachers and the students. It’s kind of a big deal here! Since I am from the US, I was asked to be the English assistant. I felt so proud but quite nervous at the same time because I wasn’t sure what I had to do, but I accepted the job anyway.Friday, 3 OctoberBoy, what a week! Now we have nine classes every day, including the morning class, a combination of our American schools “Homeroom” and “Study Hall”. I think Chinese students work too much! I have to do myhomework when I get back home. I don’t even have time to watch TV or surf the Internet like before. I sometimes miss New York and my school because we didn’t have to study so much. We had more time to hang out with our classmates and neighbors; here, besides their usual classes, students take part in weekend classes in subjects such as English, Chinese and math.I get a lot of attention, being from another country. Everyone wants to practice English with me! A really cute girl even asked me for my phone number on my second day and sent me a text message! I’m making a lot more friends now. I just need a lot of help to improve my Chinese. Some students want to do a language exchange program with me. Nice!21. The passage mentions all the following points EXCEPT _______ .A. physics studyB. food flavour (风味)C. weekend classesD. language exchange programs22. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the teacher assistant’s duty?A. Collecting homework.B. Making announcements.C. Helping teachers with small errands (差事) .D. Teaching classmates. , 23. Where is this passage most probably from?A. A storybook.B. A guide book.C. A diary.D. A magazine.【答案】21. A 22. D 23. CBIf you enjoy reading don’t miss Shakespeare and Company when you visit the city of Paris. It is a famous English-language bookstore on the left bank of the river Seine. The first Shakespeare and Company in history was opened in 1919 by an American, Sylvia Beach. Ms. Beach did more than sell books. Her bookstore was also a library,and she even prepared beds for writers visiting there. Ms. Beach was not only kind to people but also good at choosing books, so her bookstore was often visited by writers like Ernest Hemingway and James Joyce. But in 1941, after the Germans took power in Paris, Ms. Beach was told to close her bookstore.In 1951, another American, George Whitman, opened in Paris another English-language bookstore, Librairie Mistral. Since then, just as Ms. Beach did, Mr Whitman has also made his bookstore a library for people to borrow books, and a free hotel for writers to stay in. To remember Ms. Beach, Mr Whitman changed the name of his bookstore to Shakespeare and Company in 1964, two years after Ms. Beach died.Next time when you are in Paris, don’t forget to visit this friendly bookstore, and see if you can spend a night there!24. When was Shakespeare and Company first opened?A. In 1919.B. In 1941.C. In 1951.D. In 1964.25. What does Shakespeare and Company do?a. It sells books.b. It lends books.c. It offers food to readers.d. It prepares beds for writers.A. a, b, cB. a, c, dC. a, b, dD. b, c, d26. Ms. Beach closed her business because _______.A. she diedB. she was made to do itC. she left ParisD. she didn’t manage it well27. What do we know about Mr. Whitman?A. He was Ms. Beach’s neighbor.B. He used to work at Ms. Beach’s bookstore.C. He opened a bookstore to remember Ms. Beach.D. He has followed Ms. Beach’s ways of doing business.【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. DCWhenever we see a button, we are eager to press it because we know something will happen. This is true in most cases, for example on a doorbell and on the “on/off” button on the TV. But some buttons are actually fake (假的), like the “close” button on a lift.Many people are in the habit of pressing the “close” button because they don’t have the patience to wait for the lift doors to shut. But lifts “close” buttons are a complete scam, at least in the US—the doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press.It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US, making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter. Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys.But to normal lift riders, the buttons aren’t completely useless. According to psychologists, fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control. “Perceived (能够感知的) control is very important. It reduces stress and increases well-being,” Ellen J. Langer, a psychology professor, said, “Having a lack of control is connected with depression (抑郁).”Experts have expressed that a lot of buttons that don’t do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose. For example, many offices in the US have fake thermostats (温度调节器) because people tend to feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.But Psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little “white lies”, they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close, it is considered to be worth the effort.“That habit is here to stay,” John Kounios, a psychology professor, said, “Even though I have real doubts (怀疑) about the traffic light buttons, I always press them. After all, I’ve got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not press the button in the hope that this one will work?”28. What was the author’s main purpose in writing the article?A. To describe some different kinds of fake buttons.B. To tell the uses of fake buttons.C. To explore people’s different habits when it comes to pushing buttons.D. To explain the advantages and disadvantages of fake buttons.29. What does the underlined word “scam” mean？A. Trick.B. Tool.C. Button.D. Mistake.30. According to John Kounios, people who press fake buttons _______.A. don’t know that what they press is fakeB. should give up this habitC. consider what they do to be meaninglessD. probably do so to kill time【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D2019-2020学年湖南省湘西市古丈县第一中学高一英语第二学期期末考试试题卷阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AWith school out and hot weather in, it’s not unusual for youngsters t o gather around the refrigerator or the television rather than take part in active play. Such habits may be relaxing but can wreck a healthy lifestyle, say specialists at Texas Children’s Hospital.“For some kids, the state of feeling bored triggers（引发）eat ing,” says Jennifer Thomas, a doctor at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston, Texas.“A child can pick up 5 to 10 pounds over the course of a summer, so it’s important to recognize the difference between boredom（无聊）and hunger.”Because children may be adjusting（适应）to lack of routine, adding some structure to their daily schedules can help. “For example, instead of letting kids eat while they watch television, permit eating only in the kitchen with the television turned off,” says Thomas. “This way can help determine if they are really hungry or just bored.”If hunger causes a snack attack, nutritious snacks should be available（可得到的）and easy to reach, says Thomas. She suggests two or more servings of fruit and three or more servings of vegetables as a reasonable（合情理的）daily goal. Thomas says, “Fresh or frozen fruit is better than fruit juice. Fresh or frozen vegetables are better because canned vegetables usually contain salt.”In general, kids should avoid snacks with high sugar content, says Thomas. “More imp ortantly, if a sugary snack takes the place of healthier food, the child is not getting the nutrition he or she needs. High-fat food tends to make a child feel worried, while eating foods that are naturally lower in fat will make it easier for kids to feel more energetic and stay on the go.”51. What can help to stop children from eating because of boredom?A. Giving them a daily schedule.B. Giving them a lot of snacks.C. Preventing them from watching TV.D. Making them eat a lot of fruits.52. What kind of snacks should we give children?A. Fruit juice.B. Frozen fruit.C. Canned vegetables.D. Snacks rich in sugar.53. Foods that are naturally lower in fat are necessary for children because _______.A. they help children lose weightB. they help children get necessary nutritionC. they stop children from getting boredD. they make children active and energetic54. We can infer from the text that _______.A. it’s hard to tell the difference between boredom and hungerB. children may get bored for lack of routine in summerC. we should limit children’s eating while they’re watching TVD. nutritious snacks should be available at any time55. The underlined word “wreck”in Paragraph 1 probably means“_______”.A. improveB. changeC. ruinD.includeBWhen you walk into a room on the 17th floor of Copenhagen’s Bella Sky Hotel, you’ll be greeted by soft roses and other fresh flowers, fruits, fashion magazines, and a bathroom with beauty products. This is Euro pe’s first hotel floor dedicated（专用的）entirely to women—and according to the hotel’s CEO Arne Bang Mikkelsen, it is designed by women, for women.“Women’s hotel preferences（偏爱）are very different from men’s with key priorities（优先考虑的事）being to feel safe a nd comfortable. When men come into a hotel room, the first thing they do is check the view, turn on the TV, plug in their computer, and check out the fridge. Women, on the other hand, go straight to the bathroom. Does it smell nice? Is it clean? Does it have a nice bathtub and shower?”Unlike other hotels, it seemed like someone actually thought about what women wanted. To get it right, the hotel asked a number of women what they wanted, and added to their list of things like cleanliness, a nice bathroom, high-powered hairdryers, steam irons, cosmetic mirrors, healthy choices on the room service menus, and full-body mirrors.It seems that they are helped by the boom（繁荣）in female business travelers. Global numbers are hard to get, but a research report shows women account for about half of all business travelers in the US in , up from approximately 25% in 1991.Places like the Naumi Hotel in Singapore, the Premier Hotel in New York, the London Dukes Hotel and the Georgian Court Hotel in Vancouver seem to be realizing the possibility in catering（迎合）for women.At the London Dukes Hotel, the manager says bookings（预订）for their “Duchess Rooms”，which are standard rooms with fresh flowers, fruit, and styling things, have increased 25% over the past year.56. We can learn from the text that Bella Sky Hotel _______.A. is the first hotel designed for womenB. offers special service to women guestsC. has a big garden with all kinds of flowersD. can arrange rooms according to guests’ wishes57. Paragraph 2 mainly wants to tell us _______.A. men are wiser in choosing hotelsB. guests usually care about comfort mostC. women differ from men in judging a hotelD. hotels have difficulty satisfying each guest58. What can we learn from the text?A. Men guest s usually don’t care about hotels’ cleanliness.B. Living in a hotel, women guests may consider their safety.C. Women business travelers spend more than men in hotels.D. In the US the number of women travelers is higher than men.59. The example of the London Dukes Hotel is used to show ________.A. London is known for hotel managementB. guests like to experience different hotelsC. the new hotel service is very popularD. hotel industry is developing rapidly60. What is the text mainly about?A. How to run hotels.B. A new practice in hotel service.C. Different hotels’ service in the world.D. Differences between men and women hotel guests.CIt is now February 7, 2035. The search engine TalkTalk will be open to the public next week and this service will soon be something beyond your imagination. For the first time you can not only talk to the search engine, but you can discuss with it what you are looking for.For exam ple, if you want to know more about the oil price, TalkTalk asks if you want to know the current oil price, the development of the oil price, or news related to the oil price. You say that you want to read news about it and TalkTalk then directs you to your source, or lets you have the latest news related to the oil price in order from the most respectable sources.Compared with other search services that use a certain algorithm (程序) to pr ovide data from a search, the artificial intelligence (人工智能) behind TalkTalk is said to easily spot if a certain source is aiming to cheat the searcher. TalkTalk also judges and stores every g iven reply and discussion, to learn how to give correct answers. TalkTalk is also set to answer questions directly where there is a definite answer. How well this will work in the long run is yet to be seen, but thousands of people have tested TalkTalk and the quality is really good.The first talking search engine saw the light of day more than 30 years ago and was ca lled Speegle. It could read the results from a written search on the Internet, and was mostly for blind people.So far, TalkTalk cannot read the information from a certain source to you by phone, if it is not freely available. There are currently talks to find an arrangement for this, but it would most likely be difficult because of copyright(版权).TalkTalk is available over the Internet and also by phone, even though it only speaks English. There are no plans to add other languages in the near future, most likely because it will cost a lot of money. When you are tired of aski ng TalkTalk all your questions, just ask, “Where is TalkTalk?” and you will get an answer that will make you leave it with a smile on your lips.61. The example in Paragraph 2 is given to show.A. how to use the search engine TalkTalkB. how to search for news on the InternetC. the oil price is a very hot issue currentlyD. TalkTalk has a very high intelligence62. The advantage of TalkTalk is that it can.A. be available wherever you goB. tell if a certain source is reliableC. read the search results for youD. offer different kinds of search results63. What can be inferred from the text?A. TalkTalk can read all the information online.B. TalkTalk will speak other languages soon.C. TalkTalk may have a bright future.D. TalkTalk is very expensive.64. What would be the best title for the text?A. Hello, TalkTalkB. Where is TalkTalkC. TalkTalk is improvingD. Development of search engines65. In which part of a future newspaper can you read the text?A. Opinion.B. Culture.C. Lifestyle.D. Technology.PART FOUR WRITINGSECTION A（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

The gardens themselves boast thousands of species of plants. This is a lovely place to relax and explore the beautiful surroundings.Parc des Buttes-Chaumont: over 24 hectaresIf you want to get off the tourist trail and hang out with true Parisians, this park is the perfect spot for a relaxing picnic or a leisurely wander. It is in the 19th district and is one of the largest parks in Paris. Cross its lake on the suspension bridge, or admire the waterfalls and attractive temples.Jardin du Luxembourg: over 25 hectaresThese beautiful gardens were first laid out in 1612 as the gardens of the Luxembourg Palace. They include a geometric forest, French and English style gardens, as well as a large pond. There is so much to see and do with activities especially for children, such as slides, rides and puppet shows, as well as leisure and sporting activities for adults. The gardens are home to more than one hundred sculptures.Le Parc de la Villette: 55 hectaresThis urban cultural park is so much more than just a park as it is home to numerous music venues, exhibition spaces and cafes. It is also home to no less than 12 gardens, which all follow different themes.

When Amanda Lemay heard the story about a baker and her husband who were traveling around the United States in a van (厢式货车), learning from expert bakers, she wanted to do somethingsimilar. So she got rid of most of her possessions and made an old ambulance with her dad into a lovely home on wheels.Lemay’s ambulance is actually a former emergency response vehicle for the US Navy, built on a 2006 Ford E350 Cutaway. Renovations (翻新) were done by her and her dad. Now the dark blue vehicle has a lot of built-in cabinets on all sides, offering a lot of storage space, while the roof top has 400-watts of solar power panels and a small roof deck where Lemay practices Yoga. The inside is tastefully done to suit Lemay’s work and hobbies.As Lemay mentions, not only did her father help, but also the rest of her family. Lemay’s mother helped sew the decorations on the removable cushions, and her sister crafted the leather pulls. It was truly a family affair.Her current nomadic (流浪式的) lifestyle fits well with her work doing audio books, voiceovers, and publishing work. In the end, this unexpected path has Lemay rethinking what it means to be truly sustainable (可持续的), now that van life has gotten her to become minutely aware of the water, electricity, and other daily resources that she uses. But all these day-to-day concerns are balanced with a greater sense of freedom.“It’s almost mind-blowing, it feels like a completely different life because I’m doing the work online, and I can do things on my own schedule. Most of my days are mine — so by living in the van. I can be where I want to be, and do the things I want to do, and spend time outside.”1.

D．The whole family gathered to celebrate it.3. What has Lemay learned from her nomadic lifestyle?A．To value every minute of her life. B．To make full use of what she has.C．To keep a balance between work and life. D．To be aware of the real meaning offamily.4. What does Lemay like about living in a van?A．Reflecting on life. B．Forgetting all about work.C．Living at her own pace. D．Being free from day-to-day concerns.3. Rescue workers and thousands of volunteers are not the only ones who have won hearts and minds for their heroic efforts in the search for survivors after Tuesday’s powerful earthquake in Mexico. Fifteen dogs from the navy's canine (犬科的) unit have assisted this week in the rescueefforts at the sites of collapsed buildings across Mexico City, where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins.Of the canine heroes none is more famous or loved than Frida, a six-year-old white Labrador who in her distinguished service has won praise for her ability to detect people who have been trapped by various natural disasters. Over her admirable career she has found 52 people including 12 survivors in Mexico and other Latin American countries.This week, Frida and Evil and Echo—two Belgian Shepherds that have also been specially trained for rescue efforts were sent to the site of the collapsed Enrique Rebsamen school in southern Mexico City.Equipped with goggles that protect her eyes from dust and smoke, boots to prevent damage to her paws while she climbs over rough ruins, Frida took up her work looking into every bit of the ruins.If Frida detects the presence of a survivor, she is trained to bark to warn rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before continuing, her handler explained.Eleven children were rescued from ruins at the school but this time human rescue workers rather than the dogs were the ones who located them.However, that hasn’t stopped Frida from becoming a social media star and winning fame this week. Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online.While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week, she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly, searching through spaces that humans cannot reach. With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive, time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record.1. What makes Frida a social media star?A．Her rescue records and tireless work.B．Her cooperation with the rescue team.C．Her cool appearance with some special devices.D．Her ability to search spaces beyond humans’ reach.2. What does the underlined word “corpse” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A．An article of clothing. B．An unconscious animal.C．A dead person. D．A special signal.3. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Frida will achieve nothing.B．Frida will probably work miracles.C．More dogs will be sent to the area.D．The rest of the rescue will be done by dogs.4. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A．Severe Earthquakes in MexicoB．Undertaking Rescue WorkC．People Waiting for RescueD．Special Rescuers in Mexico4. It’s a warm June afternoon, and in a group of bushes and trees, a bird sings. A small insect climbs over a leaf. The Muziekplein forest, next to an 18-story building and a railway line, is about the size of a basketball court; before it was planted in 2018, the area was a parking place. The forest is one of seven such extremely small forests in the Dutch city of Utrecht, and 144 across the Netherlands. By the end of this year, according to IVN Nature Education, the organization proposing the country’s initiative, there will be 200.Since the first forest was planted in the Netherlands in 2015, the concept has become popular. Daan Bleichrodt, who launched IVN’s Tiny Forest initiative with the goal of making it easier for children to get into and connect with nature, said that he thinks it is popular because people are becoming more aware of major environmental challenges. It’s a very practical way to do something positive in the light of climate change and loss of biodiversity.Jeroen Schenkels, a senior adviser for the city of Utrecht on green planning, said he sees the mini-forests as nature-based approaches that are able to help the city weather heat waves and improve water retention(保持). But one of the biggest interests is social. “One of the most import ant things is that they give people the opportunity to be involved in nature in the neighbourhood,” Schenkels said.Between 2018 and 2020, 40 different plant and animal groups and 121 total animal species were found in the Muziekplein forest alone. According to Wageningen University researchers, across the 11 tiny forests in their study, volunteers observed 636 animal species. They also identified 298 plant species in addition to the original species planted in the plots. Maintenance of the forests occasionally involves removing aggressive weeds, but in general new plant species, such as wildflowers that appear, are allowed to grow.1. What is special about the Muziekplein forest?A．It is newly planted.B．It sits in an urban area.C．It grows along a railway.D．It is shaped like a basketball court.2. What’s the purpose of the Tiny Forest initiative?A．To call for action on climate change.B．To increase the Netherlands’ biodiversity.C．To warn people of environmental challenges.D．To make nature more accessible to children.3. What docs paragraph 3 focus on?A．Benefits of mini-forests in cities.B．Ways to keep neighbourhoods green.C．Inspiration for planting forests in cities.D．Importance of being exposed to nature.4. How does the author state the forests’ effect on biodiversity?A．By doing experiments.B．By giving examples.C．By listing figures.D．By making comparisons.5. Habits to Be a Highly Effective StudentSome students are able to get straight A’s and at the same time serve as the president of three clubs. However, some students struggle to keep their GPA (Grade-Point Average) above a 3.0. And they seem to spend all of their time in studying. Although it’s true that everyone’s IQ is different, good study habits are very important. 12 If you haven`t had a planner(规划薄), get one. Many people use their computers and smartphones to make a schedule. The problem with that approach is that they are major distractions(分心的事物). Instead, get an old-fashioned paper and pen planner.Create a weekly schedule. 3 Include time that will be spent eating, sleeping and doing anything not related to school work. That way you know exactly how much you can accomplish each day.Take frequent, short breaks. Taking a break from studying for 15 minutes every hour will help keep you refreshed. 4 If you don’t take a break, you may find yourself daydreaming or even falling asleep. Take some time for some water, a snack or a quick chat with a friend.Take care of yourself. During final exam week, it is common for students to fall behind on sleep and meals. Make sure you get a good night’s sleep and have regular meals. Studying while hungry or sleepy is ineffective and will slow you down in the long run. Also try to make time for friends and family. 5 .6. A series of severe thunder storms struck our area recently.

湖南省长沙市2021-2022学年高一下学期期末联考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are of a tall, handsome successful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical air an d strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting be around? What had held him back before?The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend.

B．More talkative.C．Gentle and friendly. D．Strict and hard-working.The West is full of fast food and large amounts of food which contribute to many women’s being fat.While many are fat thin women are admired and seen as healthier.This has led to a culture of gym-going strange dieting methods and frequently eating disorders.In the East women tend to be smaller and many women take pills to keep their slim figures as they get older.However you’re mistaken if you think thinness is the beauty standard all over the world.The BBC reports that in Mauritania Africa the opposite is true.In Mauritania mothers force their daughters to eat a lot of food so that they get as fat as possible.The fatter they are the more likely they are to marry well.Fat is also considered healthy because in a country where HIV/AIDS is a very real problem thin people are often sick and dying.However “healthy” fat women are suffering from some problems of their own and many are dying in their 40s of weight-related diseases.The Mauritanian government is trying to warn its people of the dangers of being overweight but it’s not easy to change cultural views.Many women worry that if they lose weight their husbands will leave them for fatter more attractive women.It seems that while education about the dangers of being too thin and too fat is very important what the world really needs is to become less pre-occupied with the size shape and weight of women’s bodies.The promotion of healthy practices is easy but changing cultural beauty standards takes more time imagination and effort.4．According to the article why are women usually fatter in the West?A．They don’t exercise enough.B．Large food portions and fast food are common.C．They use unhealthy dieting methods.D．They believe that being fat is beautiful.5．Why do mother force their daughter to eat a lot of food in Mauritania?A．They believe that fat people won’t get HIV/AIDS.B．They believe that fat people can live a longer life.C．They believe that fat women will have a good marriage.D．They believe that fat women won’t get sick very often.6．As for the importance of educating people about the dangers of eating too much or too little, the writer thinks that _______.A．other change are necessary as wellB．people should learn about it for themselvesC．it should be taught in schools in the whole countryD．it’s more importan t to change cultural beauty standardsDoing business nowadays without a cellphone? Living a very private life? I can’t imagine it anymore.Journalist Chris Stokel-Walker explained it very well: For the average working person, there’s no greater feeling than powering down your computer and kissing goodbye to your work emails for the day. If we’re lucky enough to disconnect from the job on evenings and weekends, we’re overjoyed to leave work emails and the stress that comes with it in the office.B ut experts say we’re increasingly failing to do so, instead bringing the burden home with us and dealing with emails during our free time. Unsurprisingly, this routine has some serious consequences.Working abnormal or long hours has long been linked with depression(抑郁症), anxiety and even heart disease. In addition, the importance of weekend recovery has also been linked with weekly job performance and personal initiative(主动性). And further research showed psychological detachment(脱离) during off-work time reduced emotional exhaustion caused by high job demands and helped people stay engaged.So, if we know all this, it begs the question: Why are we still letting work bother our precious weekend? According to Cary Cooper, professor of Organizational School, the recent trend even spills into the way we access our work communications and projects.Today, says Cooper, work emails are just a tap of a smartphone away. “You don’t carry your laptop around when you’re out to dinner, but you do carry your mobile phone,” he says. “The smartphone does not make up for what is lost.” So delete your work email account from your inbox(收件箱), and leave the worries until Monday.7．What did Chris Stokel-Walker try to stress?A．The development of office work. B．The importance of working hard. C．The pleasure of completing work. D．The power of modern technology. 8．What does the underlined part “this routine” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．Using a cellphone. B．Working in personal time.C．Failing to work long hours. D．Leaving work emails behind.9．What does Cary Cooper think of working extra hours?A．It isn’t boring.B．It isn’t interesting.C．It isn’t common.D．It isn’t worth.10．What would be the best title for the text?A．Can we live without a cellphone? B．What should we do on weekends? C．Should we ban weekend work emails? D．Who should be blamed for work overload?二、七选五It is said that most people have not more than 30 friends at any given time, and 400 over the whole of their lives. However, on social networking sites, most users have about 150 friends.11．Also, there are no rules about friendship. There are no instructions about how to make friends, how to keep friendships going, and how to finish friendships if we want to move on. People have very different opinions about this: some people would die for their friends and they value them more than family. Others say that friends are temporary, only there to help each other until they are no longer needed. 12．Because of these different definitions of friendship, it is easy to be unhappy about our friendships. We may want them to be deeper or closer, or we may want to have more friends in our lives. 13．Sometimes we fear we have left it too late in life to start. If we move to another country or city, we have to find ways to make new friends again.14．We should not think that it could be too late to build friendships. We also need to understand that the need to be around other people is one that is shared by many. Therefore, we should not be too frightened about starting to talk to people who in the future may become our friends. 15．Remember what people say: strangers are friends we have not met yet. A．Many people are at a loss as to how to make friends.B．It is likely that they too would like to get closer to us.C．Different people have different attitudes towards friendships.D．Sometimes we simply do not have the time to develop our friendships.E.This dissatisfaction shows us how important friendships are for most of us.F.If people with such different views become friends, this can lead to problems.G.These different figures show that friendship means different things in different situations.三、完形填空Joy in the JourneyIf you have ever been discouraged because of failure，please read on.For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing.Let me explain.Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house.As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to 16 "What are you doing?" asked one of the visitors."We plan to dig a hole all the way through the 17 !" one of the brothers answered 18 .The older boys began to 19 telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was 20 .After a long silence, one of the 21 picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and many other kinds of insects.He 22 the cover and showed the wonderful 23 to the scoffing(嘲笑的) visitors.Then he said quietly and24 ，Even if we don’t dig all he way through the earth, look at what we found along the25 !”Their goal was far too ambitious(有雄心的), but it did cause them to dig.And that is what a 26 is for—to cause us to move in the 27 we have chosen; In other words, to set us to 28 ! But not every goal will be fully 29 Not every job will end30 .Not every love will last.Not every attempt will be completed.Not every dream will be31 .But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say，“Yes, but look at what I32 along the way! Look at the wonderful things 33 my life because I tired to do something!" It is in the digging that life is lived.And I believe it is the 34 in the journey, in the end，that truly 35 .16．A．rest B．work C．watch D．help 17．A．house B．earth C．wall D．road 18．A．calmly B．patiently C．excitedly D．impatiently 19．A．laugh B．think C．stare D．smile 20．A．important B．difficult C．impossible D．interesting 21．A．passers-by B．watchers C．visitors D．diggers 22．A．raised B．removed C．broke D．pushed 23．A．contents B．scenes C．pictures D．jars 24．A．properly B．confidently C．carefully D．eagerly26．A．goal B．loss C．hope D．duty 27．A．way B．direction C．life D．sight 28．A．thinking B．moving C．digging D．living 29．A．made B．prepared C．kicked D．achieved 30．A．hopelessly B．naturally C．surprisingly D．successfully 31．A．recognized B．realized C．made D．treasure 32．A．found B．lost C．cut D．bought 33．A．Breaking into B．turning to C．coming into D．looking into 34．A．fun B．looking C．reason D．holding 35．A．matters B．happens C．discovery D．exists四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

I was walking over to visit my dad when it began raining heavily. Although his house was only a short walk from mine, I was wet all over and it chilled (使冰冷) my bones. I knocked on his door and stepped in. Warm steam was floating from the kitchen. It touched my nose, and suddenly, I was 8 years old again. Dad was making Nana’s special sauce.When I was growing up, Nana would make us an Italian feast every Sunday. She would slowly cook her spaghetti (意大利面) sauce for hours. Then she would drop in potatoes, chicken, meatballs, sausage and sometimes even steak. When it was done, we would mix it in the spaghetti, fix the plates and sprinkle(洒) it on the cheese. It always left our bellies full, our hearts happy and the house smelling heavenly.I sat down while Dad made me a plate. It felt so good having a meal like we used to when I was a boy. We talked about those old times, my warm-hearted aunt and laughed over the memories, both good and bad. I didn’t feel cold any more.Dad and Nana have been gone for years now. I still miss them both every singleday. Although my daughter and I both know how to make Nana’s special sauce, we don’t cook it as often as we could. Maybe it is because no matter how hard I try, I can never get it 100 percent right. Maybe it was just the love with which Nana and Dad cooked it that made it so delicious. Either way, this winter, I’m going to make some again.4．How was the author feeling on his way to his father’s house? A．Excited. B．Cold. C．Tired. D．Warm.5．What can we learn about the Italian feast when the author was growing up? A．It was nice and delicious. B．He had to make it by himself. C．The spaghetti was mixed with everything. D．He never felt full after it. 6．Nana was most probably the author’s _________.A．sister B．wife C．aunt D．daughter 7．What is the best title for the passage?A．A Travel in Winter B．My Cooking ExperienceC．Nana and My Dad D．Special Sauce with LoveHaving worked with ACE(African Conservation Experience) before. I knew that I had their complete support throughout my trip.At the airport I was introduced to other volunteers who would be travelling to Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary with me. Upon arrival at the local town of Care for Wild, Nelspruit, we were met by a worker and we quickly got a sense of the importance of the project we were attending.My first proper day at the project. Just wow. To feed a rhino baby. To approach (接近) them with their cute mouths open wide in preparation for their milk. The heartwarming moment was bittersweet though, as I remembered the reason these sweet babies were here… their mothers were killed. Hearing the stories that resulted with each beautiful baby arriving at the project was heartbreaking.I put all my heart into the work at this project.Every day at the project was full of hard work. If you think it’s all about getting to cuddle (搂抱) and play with a baby rhino, that thought is wide of the mark as it’s not the purpose of this project. Preparing milk feeds. Bush walks. Night rides. The anti-poaching(反盗猎) dog unit training and the mountedunit checkups. But all the hard work was so worth it to see the babies running around or rolling in the mud(泥浆).If you are considering volunteering at Care for Wild, do it. Yes, it is hard work. Yes, you will be tired. But trust me when I say it is all so worth it.I have left with a great amount of love for this animal and I will continue to be a supporter of their care and protection. I hope that one day, rhinos will be able to live in the wild freely. Until then, it is up to us to continue to work hard towards it. What are you waiting for?8．Why did the author go to Nelspruit?A．To have an adventure. B．To get to know ACE further. C．To do research on wild animals. D．To help with wildlife protection. 9．How did the author feel during her first day at Care for Wild? A．Amazed but sad. B．Bored and lonely.C．Nervous but lucky. D．Proud and relaxed.10．What does the underlined part“wide of the mark”in Paragraph 4 mean? A．Creative. B．Comforting. C．Wrong. D．Unproven. 11．What does the author want to do in the last paragraph?A．Describe life at Care for Wild.B．Call for people to stop poaching.C．Give an introduction to Care for Wild.D．Advise readers to volunteer at Care for Wild.二、其他Ways to make a great first impressionHere are some easy ways for you to impress your classmates or teachers.● 12Before you shake hands with somebody, make sure that your hands are clean. The handshake should not be too strong or weak. Most people use their right hands, unless they have a reason to use the left. However, don’t have your left hand in your pocket because this appears impolite.● 13When meeting someone for the first time, arriving on time is as important as breathing. You may have an excuse, but that will leave the person who hardlyknows you with a bad impression. As a general rule, plan to arrive about 30 minutes early. It’s better to be hanging around the place than be stuck in traffic.● 14Make sure you properly introduce yourself. Ask for their name in a polite way. Repeat the name and use it later in conversation. This will increase the chances of their remembering your name in the future.●Make good conversations.To get the most out of your discussion, try to find something common between the two of you. It could be a similar taste in clothes or a common hobby. A．Be on time.B．Speak fluently.C． Have a proper handshake.D．Introduce yourself and ask for names.三、完形填空One day, I logged on to Facebook and realized that I was very close to havingnearing midnight and my 27 were disappearing.

I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day.I was sure that “I” was right and “he” was wrong---and he was just as sure that “I” was wrong and “he” was right.The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson. She brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other.In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what color the object was. “White,” he answered.I couldn’t believe he said the object was white, when it was obviously black! Another argument started between my classmate and me, this time about the color of the object.The teacher told me to go to stand where the boy was standing and told him to come to stand where I had been. We changed places, and then she asked me what the color of the object was. I had to answer, “White.” It was an object with two differently colored sides, and from his side it was white. Only from my side it was black.My teacher ta ught me a very important lesson that day: You must stand in the other person’s shoes and look at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand their perspective(看法).【1】When brought up to the front of the class, the two students were sitting ______.A．side by side B．face to faceC．back to back D．facing the blackboard【2】From the lesson we may infer that ______ is right.A．none of them B．the author’s classmatesC．the teacher D．the author【3】What can we conclude from the text?A．A lesson in the past should never be forgotten.B．A teacher should give students a lesson before the class.C．Every large, round object has two differently colored sides.D．We should imagine that we’re in the other person’s situation.【4】Which of the following can best describe the teacher?A．Patient.B．Wise.C．Rude.D．Kind.3.Your voice is the only way of communicating over the telephone.

To keep a healthy and bright tone in your voice, smile when talking on a phone.Don’t answer the phone in a rush. Stop for a moment, take a deep breath, and then breathe out slo wly as you pick up the receiver. If you recognize the other person’s voice, use his/her name on your greeting, and you will sound more relaxed. Use it again during the conversation and when saying goodbye. When making a difficult call, work out in advance exactly what you wish to say. Stand while making the call---it will help you sound firm.If you know somebody is going to talk a lot, make it clear at the start of the call that you have only a limited time. There are several ways to make a call short: “It’s been lovely talking to you, but I really must stop” or “I know you are quite busy, so I’d better go now.” If all fail, try, “My other line is ringing” or “I think there is someone at the door.”With the increasing use of tele-communication and cell phone, it has become of great importance that we pay special attention to HOW and WHAT we speak on the phones.【1】While you are making a call to someone, you ________________.A．can easily become tired and disappointedB．needn’t care for your body language t oo muchC．should try to make your voice healthy and brightD．had better keep friendly to the other people【2】Before answering a call from your friend, you should _________________a. keep calmb. stop for a whilec. use his/her named. take a deep breathe. stand straightA．a, b, d B．b, c, dC．c, d, e D．a, c, e【3】What is the best title of this passage?A．It’s good to keep your voice sweet.B．The body language is important.C．Voice has something to do with body language.D．How and what we speak on the phones.4.How and when did Australia begin? It is believed that Australian history began at the end of the eighteenth century. After several centuries of European Voyaging in the southern oceans, the English naval officer James Cook sailed the eastern coast in 1770, named it New South Wales and took control of it in the name of his king. Within twenty years, the British government sent a team of explorers to settle in New South Wales. On 26 January 1788, its commander, Arthur Phillip, began to rule over the eastern half of the country. The thousand officers, soldiers, officials, and prisoners who got off from the eleven ships of the First Fleet, anchored (停泊) in the port of Sydney. They prepared the way for later immigrants who spread out over the continent.This is the story of a sleep land brought to life by Endeavour, the name given to Cook’s ship and the quality given to those who followed him.The newcomers brought with them some animals, plants and tools. They also brought with them new ideas. That achievement in turn shaped what Australia is now.【1】According to this passage, Australian history began at the end of ____________.A．the sixteenth centuryB．the seventeenth centuryC．the eighteenth centuryD．the nineteenth century【2】The eastern coast of Australia was named New South Wales in 1770. Who did it? _______A．James Cook B．Arthur PhillipC．George Washington D．William Shakespeare【3】According to the passage, the British government sent a team of explorers to settle in NewSouth Wales within ________________years.A．twelve B．sixteenC．twenty D．eighteen【4】Arthur Phillip in this passage is referred to as ____________ who began to rule the eastern half of the country in 1788.A．an army officer B．a rich businessmanC．a poor farmer D．a university student二、其他The Super BowlMany of us are familiar with the World Cup, a football competition which is popular among people in almost all nations.Did you know there is another football competition that is well known worldwide? 【1】. Now we don’t know where the name came from but it is very different from the football we know. However, the more you know about it, the better you will like it.【2】. This is of importance because it helps make sure the game is fair. This year, it was held in Houston, Texas. It was a great game, and the two teams that made it to the final were similar in strength. No one could tell who would win the game until the last few seconds.【3】.The Patriot won by 3 points.Each year, the Super Bowl is broadcast on TV all over the world.【4】. A ticket for this year game cost US $2,000-4,250. This is about one month’s salary for many Americans. Pretty expensive, isn’t it? I am going to watch next year’s game live, but before that I have to work hard to earn enough money.【5】. Maybe we can watch it together, sitting side by side at the stadium.A. The final score was 32-29.B. Do you know the basic rules of the Super Bowl?C. The Super Bowl is not so popular among Chinese.D. Each year, the Super Bowl is played in a different American city.E. Are you interested?F. But if you want to go to see it live, you had better have a lot of money.G.

You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control yourself, but when you’re asleep, your sleep ing position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep. If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don’t like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you’re always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You’re shy and you don’t usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡的) personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You’re usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don’t often get unhappy.
