14-15学年新课标高一上学期期中测试ⅡClass: Name: Marks: 满分(120)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AThere is an old Chinese tale about a woman whose only son died. In her grief (悲痛), she went to the holy man (圣人) and asked, “What magical things do you have to bring my son back to life?”Instead of sending her away or saying a few words to comfort her, the holy man said to her, “Bring me a mustard (芥菜) seed from a home that has never known sorrow. We will use it to drive the sorrow out of your life.” The woman went off at once in search of that magical seed.She first came to a beautiful castle, knocked at the door, and said, “I am looking for a home that has never known sorrow. Is this such a place? It is very important to me.”They told her, “You’ve certainly come to the wrong place.” And then they began to describe all the bad things that had recently happened to them.The woman said to herself, “Who is better able to help these unfortunate people than I?” So she stayed to comfort them, and then went on in search of a home that had never known sorrow. But wherever she turned, in hotels or in other places, she found one tale after another of sadness and misfortune.The woman became so busy helping others to deal with their sorrows that she finally let go of her own. She would later come to understand that it was the search for the magical mustard seed that drove away her suffering.1. Leaving the holy man, the woman .A. was full of hopeB. was filled with sadnessC. was determined to try againD. became discouraged2. The “magical seed” refers to “”.A. a cure for sorrowB. being open to othersC. showing respect to othersD. a home that has never known sorrow3. We can learn from the passage that .A. the holy man was playing a trick on the womanB. the woman didn’t go to the right place for the seedC. a mustard seed would bring the woman’s son back to lifeD. the woman was curing herself of sorrow while looking for the seed4. What does the author want to tell us by writing this passage?A. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.B. Time passed cannot be called back again.C. You can’t feel happy unless comparing with others.D. You can’t expect to know the result until you have tried.B5. Whom would the magazine Zootles most probably attract?A. Young kids who like simple rhymes.B. Young kids who are fond of animals.C. Children who love interesting stories.D. Teenagers who want to gain basic skills.6. What do we know about the magazine Thomas & Friends?A. It mainly tells young kids about friendship.B. It cannot help children who want activities.C. It tells stories that happen in a magical world.D. It publishes stories written by Thomas and his friends.7. If a parent wants his/her kids to know different cultures, he/she should buy .A. ZoobiesB. BabybugC. Highlights High FiveD. National Geographic Little Kids8. We can infer that the activities, puzzles and non-fiction given in Highlights High Five are aimed at helping kids .a. know how to reasonb. solve problems betterc. find their favorite animalsd. express themselves clearlye. recognize colors, shapes and sizesA. abdB. bcdC. abcD. cdeCReading is important, but getting kids to enjoy reading can be quite difficult. There are two steps you can take to help kids to enjoy reading. Firstly you need to find something they actually want to read. Then, you need to get them to read school books, but this is not the place to start.So how do you choose something for your kids to read? You have to find out what your kids enjoy. It doesn’t matter what you buy, so long as your kids will find it interesting. A book given as a reward (奖励) will often be more enjoyed by kids. If your kids have just done well at something, this is a good time to give them a new book.The second thing you need to consider is where your kids are going to read. I strongly suggest creating a “reading space” in their room and also a time for them to read on their own, ideally just before bed time.There is another way to really speed up your kids’ reading. It is to get them writing. When you set up their “reading space”, be sure to give them a diary and a pen. Just by writing a few sentences each day they will improve their skills.So to successfully get your kids to enjoy reading you need to create them a space in which they read, give them something fun to read, and improve their skills through writing. Before you know it, their abilities will have moved forward and you will be amazed at their progress. Of course, remember all the time to reward good reading with more books.9. The author wrote this passage to .A. show us how to speed up our readingB. tell us the benefits of reading for kidsC. give us some tips on how to get kids to enjoy readingD. give us examples of how to choose proper books for kids10. Whom is this passage intended for?A. Teachers.B. Kids.C. Parents.D. Workers.11. Which of the following methods will most probably get kids to value their books?A. Giving them books as a reward.B. Reading books together with them.C. Choosing books they like.D. Giving them a reading space.DResearchers found that a “name pronunciation effect” played an important role in how people were perceived (感知) by others. They concluded that the easier a person’s name was to say, the better their successwas in the workplace and the quicker career advancement (提升) they enjoyed. Their study also found that a simple name improved people’s ability to make new fr iends.Dr. Simon Laham, who led the study, said people with simple names were generally judged more positively (积极地). “The effect is not because of the length of a name or how foreign-sounding or unusual it is, but rather how easy it is to pronounce,” he said.In their study the team studied the way names can influence a person’s impressions and decision making. They looked at lots of names of 500 university student volunteers from British, Asian, and European backgrounds and a field of 500 lawyers in America. The team found that people with more pronounceable names were more likely to achieve success. They found that American lawyers with easier sounding names got career advancement faster within their law firms. Names including Sherman, Jenkins, Benson, and Angus ranked among the easiest to pronounce, while Farquharson and Loughnane and European names such as Leszczynska were found to be difficult to pronounce. They concluded that a simple name was the key to success.Dr. Laham said the results could have important implications (意义) for how managers dealt with bias (偏见). “It’s important to treat the biases that shape our choices and judgments about others,” he said. “It may help remove bias, leading to fairer, more objective treatment of others.”12. What factor of a name plays the key role in deciding its effect?A. The length of the name.B. The pronunciation of the name.C. The meaning of the name.D. Whether the name is unusual or not.13. The underlined part “pronounceable names” in Para. 3 refers to names that .A. can be spelled easilyB. can’t be pronounced easilyC. can be pronounced without difficultyD. sound like foreign names14. Which of the following would Dr. Laham most probably agree with?A. People should use simple names to avoid biases.B. Foreign names are considered to be hard to pronounce.C. The name effect can be found only in English-speaking countries.D. The study can help people treat those with hard-to-say names more fairly.15. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Having an easy-to-say name will help you get quicker career advancement.B. People with hard-to-say names should struggle for fairer treatment.C. People with hard-to-say names should avoid unfair treatment from others.D. The importance of changing hard-to-say names to easy-to-say ones.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

When his college friends were looking for their jobs, he didn‘t have to. Jack decided to live a simple life like everyone else. He gave $ 10,000 of his money to a charity to help poor children live a better life. Today he is 36. He still wears cheap shoes and clothes and drives a small car, but he is very happy.Up to now Jack has helped some children from poor countries all over the world by sending them each $ 200 a month. The money is used for the children‘s study, food, medicine and clothing. Jack receives a report each year on the children‘s progress. They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak E nglish.When Jack first heard about these children, he wanted to help them. ―It was nothing special,‖ he said, ―Until I went to these countries and met the children I was helping, I didn‘t know anything about their lives. ‖ Jack once went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting. ―When I met her, I felt very, very happy.‖ He said. ―And I saw that the money was used for a good cause. It brought me happiness. I want to do everything I can to go on helping those children.‖56.

Edu to plan a visit.Take a tourTake a student-led tour of the university. But the dorms (宿舍), academic departments, athletic facilities(体育设施) and libraries are not included on any of our tours.Attend a classThe Admissions Office provides a list of the meeting times and locations of courses held during the academic year that visitors are welcome to attend.Speak with the Harvard teachersTeachers and other staff members are often glad to talk to people who have questions about our programs. It is best to write ahead directly to the office to arrange an appointment.For Seniors OnlyEat a meal with Harvard studentsDuring the academic year, high school seniors are our guests for one meal in Annenberg Hall, the first-year dining hall, or in one of the House dining halls if accompanied by a House resident.Stay overnight in one of the residence hallsOur office can arrange for high school seniors to stay with volunteer student hosts for one night, Monday through Thursday, from October 1st through early March. We need to hear from you by phone (617-495-1551) or by mail at least three weeks in advance for us to be able to confirm (确认) your stay with a host.60. Which of the following activities is NOT available to all visitors?A. A meeting in the Admissions Office.B. An opportunity to talk with a teacher.C. A tour of the university.D.

The text is most probably taken from a (n) .A. news reportB. advertisementC. feature storyD. school websiteCIt is two in the morning. The wind is getting stronger and there is a chance that it will rain. Though the weather is bad, Al Gehrke sits 110 floors above the ground, 442 meters above the earth. You may be wondering what he is doing so far off the ground. If you asked him, he would say, ―I am just doing my job!‖Al Gehrke has a very special job that not many people would want to have. He manages one of the tallest buildings in the world--the Wills Tower in Chicago. His team washes and changes the windows. The Wills Tower has 16, 000 windows and each window weighs over 90 kilos. Gehrke and his team work from seven in the evening until four in the morning. They clean 18 windows each night. Each window takes almost 30 minutes. Al Gehrke is not afraid of high places and he is a good man for the job.Mary Ann also has an unusual job. Instead of hanging high above the earth washing windows, she works under the water. She trains dolphins (海豚) for shows and also helps people to swim with the dolphins. She loves the dol phins. ―We never tell a dolphin what to do. We ask them respectfully. They decide to do that for us because of the relationship we have,‖ she said.Besides washing windows high above the earth or swimming with big fish under the water, there are other unusual jobs that you have probably never thought of people having. Here is another strange example : karaoke singers! A karaoke singer is someone who sings the songs of famous singers. The singer is able to follow the words of the songs because they appear on a computer in front of them. In Cyprus, karaoke singers are very popular. They sing to the people on holiday. As the visitors travel around the island they can listen to the music of the karaoke singers.63.

Which of the following is TRUE about Al Gehrke?A. He does his job in high places very well.B. He cleans 30 windows each night.C. People admire him for his job.D. He works 18 hours each day.65.

The writer is trying to introduce some unusual jobs by .A. holding some activitiesB. offering some examplesC. making comparisonsD. telling some funny jokesDHave you ever thought, ―I wish I could take a year off and just travel around the world‖? Well, three lucky American teenagers were able to do just that.The teens—two males and one female--got an all-expenses paid, yearlong hike to five continents.This trip didn‘t include any five-star hotels or shopping funs.Eighteen-year-old Jamie Fielfrom Keller, Texas, 17-year-old Arsen Ewing from Canyon, California, and 16-year-old Tyler Robinso from Lincoln, Massachusetts, didn‘t expect fancy treatment.They signed up for the experience of a lifetime, which included hard work, often uncomfortable accommodations, and encounters with(遭遇)some of nature‘s most dangerous animals and environments.Jamie, Arsen, and Tyler were among hundreds of high school kids nominated by their science teachers to take this trip.Earthwatch Institute sponsored(赞助)this adventure.Each year, Earthwatch employs thousands of volunteers worldwide to help with scientific research projects.The group went all around the world to get a close look at the most pressing environmentalissues of our time.Their assignments were as varied as their locations, and included measuring and attending pink flamingos in Kenya‘s Great Rift Valley, and tracking giant sea turtles i n Costa Rica.As they worked with the Earthwatch scientists, Jamie, Arsen, and Tyler began to understandthat we are at a critical moment in the life of our planet.Time for change is running out.As the teens went from country to country and witnessed different environmental dangers and challenges, they understood that solutions to important environmental issues start with the power of one person's actions.They realized that each of them can make a difference.67. These teenagers went on the journey around the world _____.A. to experience the most serious environmental problems on the earthB. to bring the kindness of America to the other parts of the worldC. to go on sightseeing around the worldD. to call on more teenagers to join Earthwatch Institute68.

It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy(补救) the situation. This is the winner's key to success.Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don't rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about--creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don't have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on "whose fault it is." Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.56.

Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the names in a way that does not sound forced or artificial. Ask the other person to recite and repeat.You can let other people help you remember their names. After you've been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you are making to learn their names.Admit you don't know.In fact, admit that you can't remember someone's name can make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say, "I am working to remember names better. Yours is on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?"Use associations(联想).Link each person you meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: "Vicki Cheng- tall, black hair." To reinforce(加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.Go earlyConsider going early to meetings, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That's fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear thembeing introduced to others- an automatic review for you.60.How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?A. They will be movedB.

Have I fallen off the wagon sometimes? Yes. Am I a daily smoker, a constant smoker? No," Obama said at a news conference."I don't do it in front of my kids, l don't do it in front of my family. I would say that I am 95 percent cured, but there are times where I mess up," he said.The new law gives the US Food and Drug Administration the power to strictly limit the making and marketing of tobacco products.At a White House signing ceremony Monday, Obama said that he was among the nearly 90 percent of smokers who took up the habit before their 18th birthday."Once you go down this path it's something you continually struggle with, which is exactly why the law we signed is so important because what we don't want is kids going down that path in the first place," he said at the news conference.Nearly 20 percent of Americans smoke and tobacco use kills about 440,000 people a year in the United States due to cancer, heart disease, and other serious diseases.64.

The new law first looks at _______ health.A. adults'B. middle-aged people'sC. women'sD. children'sDI hated dinner parties. But I decided to give them another shot because I’m in London. And my friend Mallery invited me. And because dinner parties in London are very different from those in New York, “I’m having a dinner party” means: “I’m booking a table for 12 at a restaurant and we’ll be sharing the cheque evenly (平均地), no matter what you eat.” In Manhattan there is always someone who leaves be fore the bill arrives. They’ll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don’t drink, end up paying even more. But if you try to use the same trick, the hostess will shout: “Where are you going ?” And I cannot say I have somewher e to go because everyone knows I have nowhere to go.But in London, dinner parties are in people’s homes. Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix. The last time I went to one, the guests were from France, India, Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations. In New York, the mix is less striking. It’s like a gathering at Bloomingdatle’s, a well-known department store.For New Yorkers, talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New York. But at Mallery’s, when I said that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was, while In New York people would think it was a usual club.68. What does the word “shot” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. ChoiceB. TryC. StyleD. Goal69. What does the author think of the parties in London?A. A bit unusualB. Full of tricksC. Less costlyD.
