Explanations．15.What's the author's purpose in writing the text？______A. To introduce．B. To praise．C. To describe．D. To discuss．CSeeing the long-term benefit of saving energy，many cities and towns have recently replaced their old street lights with new LED ones．But，in doing．so，they may be affecting people's sleep and putting the health of humans and other animals at risk，says a new report from the American Medical Association（AMA）．The AMA says certain high intensity（强度）LEDs can produce a disability glare and a prison atmosphere．People of Davis，California，Cambridge，Massachusetts，and elsewhere have complained about 4000K lights and campaigned to get the lighting replaced with 3000K types，or failing that，so they don't spread light so widely．More seriously，the 4000K LED units produce 29% of their luminance（亮度）as blue light that humans sense as a harsh（强烈刺眼的）type of white light，the AMA says．Research suggests this light could harm health，compared with traditional street lighting．"Brighter nighttime lighting is connected with reduced sleep time，dissatisfaction with sleep quality，nighttime awakenings，damaged daytime functioning，and obesity，" the report says．"White LED street lighting could also cause chronic disease（慢性病）in the populations of cities in which they have been fixed．"Blue light，whether from street lights，tablets or shoes，is thought to affect our body．At dusk it normally reduces our body temperature，limits appetite （胃口）and makes us sleepy．Some researchers think blue light is connected with certain cancers．Cities and towns need to balance the financial savings from fixing some LED lights with the public health effects．The AMA suggests that 3000K or lower lighting for outdoor areas such as roadways should be used．16.What are people in some places complaining about？______A. Their street lights are too old．B. LED street lights are too bright．C. The street lights waste too much energy．D. They have to pay tax for LED street lights．17.One bad effect of blue light is that ______ ．A. it makes people lose weightB. it increases people's body temperatureC. it causes people to eat less in the eveningD. it is regarded as the main reason for many cancers18.The AMA suggests that cities and towns should ______ ．A. save money by using more LEDsB. rebuild some roadways to save energyC. use 4000K lights to replace 3000K lightsD. consider people's health when using LEDs19.What's the main idea of the text？______A. The advantages of LEDs．B. White light and blue light．C. It's time to get serious about light pollution．D. It's important to save energy by using LEDs．DBeverly Cleary has spent her life surrounded by books，but her love of reading had a rocky start．The Oregon farm girl moved to the city --nearby Portland-- as she began first grade．Being in the crowded classroom was a shock．"The teacher was very strict．She had to be because none of us had gone to kindergarten，" Cleary said．"I was frightened．It was a bad year．My second-grade teacher was so lovely，so kind and so gentle that I wasn't afraid of her．I still wasn't very enthusiastic about reading．" Cleary still remembers the day in third grade when she became hooked（着迷的）．"My mother continued to bring books for my level at home，" she said．"One Sunday，I picked up one．It was ‘The Dutch Twins' by Lucy Fitch Perkins．" She read the story about a boy and a girl living in Holland，and then Cleary found out something about herself．"I discovered I was reading and enjoying it，" she said．Cleary soon became enthusiastic about books．After college，she became a librarian，a job that kept her in touch with young readers．A boy who wasn't impressed with the books on the shelves created an idea for a story．"He said，‘ Where are the books about kids like us？'" Cleary said．At the time，she was trying to write a book about a boy．She thought back to the boys in her Portland neighborhood．The character Henry Huggins was born．The book，published in 1950，was to be the first of more than 40 that Cleary would write．Cleary stopped writing in 1999，but her titles continue to fill bookstores and library shelves．She said she thinks that's because kids can relate to the characters．"I think that in many places，children's lives haven't changed that much，" she said．But more important，she said，are the feelings she wrote about embarrassment at school，loyalty（忠诚）toward a best friend，annoyance at a little sister．Those haven't gone away．And one of the great rewards of Cleary's career has been reaching struggling readers．"I always told them if they kept trying they would discover something that they would really enjoy，" she said．20.What do we know about Cleary when she was young？______A. She was talented in writing．B. She got along well with her first teacher．C. She fell in love with reading in second grade．D.

2010-2023历年江苏省启东中学高一上学期期中考试英语试卷（带解析）第1卷一.参考题库(共20题)1.The concept of homeschooling is not a new one. Homeschooling means educating children at home instead of sending them to public or private schools. Nowadays, homeschooling has become popular in many countries for a variety of reasons. One of them is poor quality of education in public schools and it’s also because private schools are quite expensive. Some parents believe that because they know their child’s strengths and weaknesses, they can teach him or her better. Some parents prefer homeschooling so as to prevent their children from getting into bad company. There is another group of people who choose to educate their children at home because they want them to learn spirit and values of the family and also their religious beliefs. They also think that homeschooling would help in development of strong familybonds(家庭纽带).However, there are some negative effects of homeschooling on students as well as parents.Homeschooling is a full-time job and not fit for parents who have their own careers. It takes a lot of time for parents’ side to make homeschooling a success. Other family members’ responsibilities may also be affected. They may give their full attention to the needs of their children. Besides, a parent may have high educational qualifications, but that does not make him or her a good teacher. Teaching is an art, which requires the ability to understand the needs of the children. It is likely that the parent might have forgotten what he or she has learned, and the curriculum(课程) of the children would also be different. This would make it difficult for the parents to explain the concepts to their children. Parents also have the responsibility of designing the curriculum of students.In today’s w orld, competition(比赛) is seen in every field, and school prepares children to face these competitions. However, homeschooling does not give the children a chance to compare with other kids. They will also not be aware of where they stand ineducational position among their classmates. This may affect their future lives. Education is not the only thing that the children need to become successful human beings. It is necessary that they learn to communicate in the society, and public school provides them with such an environment, where they meet many people. Schools also provide children with a chance to take part in various activities to improve their overall development.It is true that it has many benefits, but one must realize that school teaches children skills to face and survive.HomeschoolingDefinitionEducating children at home instead of in 【小题1】___________ schools orprivate ones.【小题2】__________for the popularity1.Poor quality of education in public schools and 【小题3】___________fees in private schools.2.Children are taught 【小题4】__________at home.3.Children are kept away from bad company.4.Homeschooling is 【小题5】__________in strengthening family bonds Negatives【小题6】__________For parents:1.They can’t 【小题7】___________on their full-time jobs.2.They can’t be good 【小题8】_____________.For children:1.They can’t get chances to 【小题9】___________ with others.2.They lack an environment where they meet many people.3.They can’t join in 【小题10】_____________activities.2.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。

We’d dipped (浸泡) hundreds of berries, arranged gift baskets and packaged orders to be shipped around the country.By the end of the day, the two middle-aged women, Joan and I, were exhausted. Shari didn’t seem tired. That was typical Shari. Though she was very busy, I’d seen her give away berries to everybody —parking attendants, mail carriers and hairdressers. “For me?” they would say, bursting into a smile.As a “thank you”, Shari took us out for dinner. But there was a 45-minute wait at her favorite restaurant. “No big deal. There’s another place just up the road,”she said, driving us there. This time we walked right in.When the waitress came to take our drink orders, Shari reached into her handbag, pulling something out. “I want you to have these,”she said, handing the waitress a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries. “She will love those berries!” I thought. But the waitress seemed startled. She only let out a “thank you”before grabbing the box and rushing into the kitchen.A few minutes later, the waitress returned with our iced tea. “I apologize,”she said. “My best friend and I had promised to send each other something every Valentine’s Day. But she passed away last year. I didn’t know how I’d get through this day without her. Then you handed me that box.”“I’m so sorry to hear that,”said Shari. “It’s not much, but I hope you can enjoy them.”“Oh, I will,”the waitress said. “See, every year we always sent each other the same thing; a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries bought from our favourite store, The Berry Factory.”56. What can be inferred in the first paragraph?A. The Berry Factory is a gift storeB.The Berry Factory has few shop clerks.C. The Berry Factory has many branches around the countryD.

TrendsDA lazy Susan is an addition to a table that is designed to assist in moving food from one person to another while dining. This is achieved through the use of a turntable (转盘), which usually moves the food in a circle when it is pushed by those at the table. In this way, the food never has to be picked up and passed around the table. Instead, it remains in place on the lazy Susan.A lazy Susan may also be a part of a kitchen cabinet (橱柜). In this sense, the lazy Susan is a type of shelving unit within the cabinet that is able to turn around its axis(轴心) . One may turn the lazy Susan in order to find certain goods in storage. From the outside, a lazy Susan appears to be two cabinets that are located at a right angle (直角) to each another. When one of these cabinets is pushed, however, both doors move and the lazy Susan is revealed inside.It is believed that Thomas Jefferson invented the lazy Susan in the 18th century, though it was called “dumbwaiter” at that time. It is said that Jefferson invented the lazy Susan because his daughter complained she was always served last at table and, as a result, never found herself full when leaving the table. Others believe that Thomas Edison was the inventor, as he is believed to have invented the turntable for his phonograph (留声机). The turntable may have developed into the lazy Susan later.Regardless of who invented it, it wasn’t until 1917 that the term “lazy Susan”was used in an advertisement for the invention. In Britain, however, the term “dumbwaiter”is still used rather than “lazy Susan”. The reason for the naming of it is still a mystery. One theory is that it was named after either Jefferson’s or Edison’s daughter, both of whom were named Susan.67. What is a “lazy Susan”?A. A waitressB. A convenient toolC. A tableD. A cabinet68. According to those who believed Thomas Jefferson invented the lazy Susan,_______.A. his daughter was very lazyB. the lazy Susan didn’t exist until the 18th centuryC. Thomas Edison was his friendD.

At this time, parents shouldn’t stand back and with the children gone, they are left with an empty nest. How can parents get through this period of life?The first thing you should do is nothing at all. You should actually take some time to rest since your child was born. Just relax and reward yourself for the work you put into your child. Taking some time for yourself will allow you to adjust to the change and figure out how you really feel about your child ’s departure (离开). You shouldn ’t compare how you feel with how other people feel, as everyone ’s experience of an empty nest is different. Exercise is a great mood lifter. A physical fitness program may have been one of the first sacrifices (牺牲) you made when your child came along; now, with fewer duties, you ’ll have time to hit the gym regularly. If you have a friend who also has become an empty nester recently, you may have found a new companion. Not only will you get the chance to share dealing with tips, you ’ll also create social opportunities for yourself, which will get you out of that empty house if you need to. We all have those things that we say we ’ll do or learn “someday ”. If you ’re an empty nester, the “someday ” might just be now. If you ’re not sure exactly what to do in all your spare time, take your time and think about it. It will, however, probably be easier to figure out your dream when you ’re out. Try exploring a nearby museum or attraction you ’ve never visited. Many parents may fear an empty nest because they worry that their little birds have flown away forever. Try setting up a regular phone date with your child. A once-a-week call may make you feel satisfied while giving your child a reasonable degree of根据提示，写一篇150词左右的建议信. 假如你是某报编辑，昨天收到一位门生来信.请根据来信的内容和所给的要点提示用英语写一封回信.（要留意写信的格式）4.考试时合理分配（distribute）工夫，并尽量抽出几分钟检查；………………Array江苏省启东中学2011～2012学年度第一学期期中考试高一英语答题纸1-70题填涂在客观题答题卡上否则有效单词拼写 (每空0.5分，共5分)71. __________ 72. __________ 73. __________ 74.__________ 75. _________76. __________ 77. __________ 78. __________ 79.__________ 80. _________完成句子 (每空0.5分，共5分)81. ________ ________82. ________ ________83. ________ ________84. ________ ________85. ________ ________义务型阅读 (每空0.5分，共5分)86. __________ 87. __________ 88. __________ 89.__________ 90. _________91. __________ 92. __________ 93. __________ 94.__________ 95. _________(20分)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________江苏省启东中学2011-2012学年度第一学期高一英语期中试题参考答案1—5 CBBAC6—10 CACAC11—15 ACBCB16—20 BAACB 21—25 CDCAB 26—30 DABCC 31—35BCADB36—40 BADBD 41—45 CDBCC 46—50 ABDCA 51—55 ABDCD56—59 DCA D 60—62 DCC63—66 ADBB 67—70BBCD76. chatting 77.concentrate 78.equipment79.achievements 80.peacefully81. as what 82.

It’s good that you have a high aim for yourself and you know what has prevented you from achieving high scores in exams. But you should remember that even the very best student can make mistakes sometimes. So don’t put too much pressure on yourself.As far as I am concerned, learning from your mistakes in past exams is a quick way to stop making the same mistakes next time. To begin with, if there are questions that can’t be solved by yourself, you should turn to your teachers or classmates for help. What’s more, during the exams you’d better make a good plan to distributeyour time according to the questions. Besides, try to leave a few minutes at the end to check your answers.Enjoy the challenge that each new exam brings to you. I believe a good learning habit will finally help you gain success.Best wishesYours sincerely,Editor(161 words)听力原文：Text 1M : Hi, Mary! I find you often surf the Internet these days.
