辽宁省沈阳市2017-2018学年高一英语上学期期中试题第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题; 每小题2分，满分30分）AA year ago, my friend and I went to a nearby town to attend a wedding. After the reception, we were waiting for a public transport bus to go back home. It was nine o'clock at night, and although many buses passed, none stopped.We waited for an hour and were getting desperate. We wouldn't be able to stay overnight because it was a weekday, and we both needed to work the next day. It was almost 10 p.m. when a family who had attended the same wedding passed by in their car. Probably sensing that we were waiting for some means of transport, they stopped and gave us a lift. I was so touched by their kindness, and I expressed my gratitude (感谢)to them.When we reached my hometown, the family dropped us at the nearest point from where we could catch a shared taxi to get back to the spot where we had parked our bike. On the way, a laborer（工人） stopped the taxi. The driver saw his clothes and asked him whether he had money to pay the fare（车费）.The laborer shook his head and said, "No". On hearing this, the driver refused to take him. I remembered my own plight a few minutes earlier, and I told the driver to allow him to sit with us, as I would pay his fare. What an immediate opportunity to pass on the family's act of kindness! That night, I felt light-hearted and I went to sleep happily and filled with joy about what I had gotten to do. May this chain of kindness continue!21. Why the author and his friend waiting for a bus at nine o’clock at night?A. Because they were going to attend a wedding.B. Because they planned to help a laborer.C. Because they intended to meet a family.D. Because they wanted to go back home.22. What was the driver’s attitude toward the laborer’s asking for a lift?A. Uncaring. .B. Friendly.C. PositiveD. Respectful.23. The underlined word “plight” in paragraph 4 could best be replaced by “_________”.A. opportunityB. troubleC. kindnessD. tiredness24. What is the best title for the passage?A. A Kind and Helpful FamilyB. An Unusual WeddingC. Magic Chain of KindnessD. Attitude Decides EverythingBToday, we are told, children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to screen on a computer or a TV---they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.Children often need a helping hand from mom and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity, by giving wild time a go”.So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”.This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you。

AAs the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.Ludwig van Beethoven(1770-1827)Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作曲). The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court(宫廷) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.Frederic Chopin (1810-1849)Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.Franz Schubert(1797-1828)Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors(前辈),Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.21. Beethoven did Not make a living by ___.A. teaching studentsB. giving concertsC. selling his worksD. doing business22.Bach worked as an organist in Weimar until _____.A. 1765B.1707C.1750D.171623. Who is called “the father of modern music”?A.BeethovenB. BachC. ChopinD.Schubert24.What do we know about the four musicians ?A.They all lived a hard life at their old age.B.They were all good at playing the piano.C.They became famous at a young age.D.They were all talented musiciansBAfter twenty-third hour at night, the house was quiet. I didn’t go to bed. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome thing they call “books”.I would have my important examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I didn’t answer, in fact I dared not.As soon as the clock struck twelve, I suddenly heard and couldn’t help crying “Oh, dear! Many more books to read before I can go to bed!” W e students are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He didn’t have to work so hard when he was a boy.When the clock struck one, I felt I was hopeless now. I forgot all I had learned.I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them a few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.25. When the author was going over his lessons, all the others in the house were__.A. asleepB. outsideC. working in bedD. quietly laughing at him26. The underlined word “wretched” means _______.A. energeticB. disappointedC. unhappyD. hopeful27. What do you suppose happened to the author?A. He went to a church to pray again.B. He passed the exam by sheer luck.C. He failed in the exam.D. He was punished by his teacher.28. The best title for the passage would be ___.A. The night before the examinationB. Staying up all nightC. A lazy studentD. Going over my lessonsCThe Thanksgiving Day ,the fourth Thursday in November, is coming in America. But do you know something about the annual(每年的)Macy’s Thanks giving Parade(游行) in New York?There are thousands of bystanders(看热闹的人)and millions of television viewers. The Parade is as traditional as turkey. The year 2016 was the 90th year of Macy’s parade. It featured 15 huge balloons in the shape of cartoon and pop culture characters, 1,200 dancers and cheerleaders, 900 clowns(小丑),10 marching bands and nearly 9,000 workers, almost all of whom were volunteers.The floats(彩车)and balloons have been getting larger ,more colorful and more surprising since Macy’s immigrant (移民的) workers organized the first Thanksgiving Day Parade.In 2016, school children were invited to the Macy’s parade studios(画室) outsideNew York City, for a first look at several just completed floats.Bella was excited to be there. “I think it’s great because I get to see all of these floats before anyone else does in the parade,” said Bella.John Piper is the president of Macy’s Studio. He said his work was fun all the time. “It’s a lot of work. All year long, the artists at Macy’s St udio all build these floats. We create them from scratch(涂抹). I have the finest carpenters(木匠), metal workers, painters all cooperating(合作) together,” said Piper.The floats were supposed to advertise for commercial sponsors(赞助商) for the start of the Christmas season. But Amy Kule, the event producer said, “ And the floats are used to keep the beauty and the majesty(庄严)of the parade. A Thanksgiving parade is always about giving back and entertaining(娱乐). But most importantly, it’s about leaving it for the next generation.”29. .What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A. Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is a custom held each year.B. The way of celebrating Thanksgiving Day isn’t changed each year.C. There must be turkeys in Macy’s Thanksgiving Day ParadeD.Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is as i mportant as turkey.30. Which of the following statements is Not true according to John Piper?A. It isn’t boring to create these floats.B. All the workers at Macy’s Studio work on the floats separately.C. The artists build the floats one year before the parade.D. It needs lots of work to build these floats.31. Which part of a website is the passage possibly taken from?A. travelB. cultureC. literatureD. artDHow many times a day do you check your WeChat(微信) or QQ? When you wake up? Before bed? A dozen times in between? The technology which was supposed to make our lives simple has taken up too much time. The young people spends more than seven hours a day using technological devices(设备), with an extra hour just text-messaging friends.The advantage of technological devices is connection: we are in touch with more people during more hours of the day than at any other time in history. But is it possible that we’re lonelier than ever? That’s what professor Sherry Turkle observes（观察）in her new book, Alone Together,which clearly describes our changing relationship with technology.For Turkle, technology isn’t offering us the lives we want to live. “We’re texting people at a distance,” says Turkle, “We’re using lifeless objects(物体) to convince(使确信) ourselves that even when we’re alone, we feel together. And then when we’re with each other, we put ourselves in situations where we are alone---always on our mobile devices. I call it a storm of confusion(困惑) about what’s important i n our human connections. That’s my biggest worry.”Besides, communicating online is not equal to face-to-face communication. Online, you can ignore(忽视) others’ feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact(目光接触). A number of studies have found that this generation of young people is lesssympathetic(有同情心的)than ever. “That doesn’t lead to disaster,” says Turkle, “but the disadvantages still cannot be ignored.”32. What is Sherry Turkle’s biggest worry?A. Technology may make human connections confusingB. Technology can’t help people remove lonelinessC. Technology may make people’s lives hardD. Technology keeps people together33. What is the author’s attitude to the influence of technology on people’s life?A. PositiveB. NegativeC. HopelessD. Uncertain34. What is the passage mainly about?A. Technology brings many conveniences to people’s livesB. Young men spend too much time on technological devicesC. Technology also brings people some disadvantagesD. Sherry Turkle observes people’s changing relationship with technology35. What’s the main purpose of the passage?A. To instruct people how to do with messages.B. To stress the importance of technology.C. To get us to consider what’s i mportant in human connections.D. To promote(推动)a wider use of technological devices.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。

It tastes good. And reading is the ho bby I like best. , however, can be dangerous. When you are lo st in a book, you stop paying attention to what’s going on arou nd you. It’s a wonderful feeling, but it sometimes can be hazar dous. []When I was young, one day, I was eating spaghetti with meat balls, and I was reading an interesting book. At the time, my f amily had a pet bird named Luke. He was free to fly around in side the house. And Luke enjoyed “talking” to people.As I was reading and eating, Luke was “talking” to me, but I w as lost in my book. So Luke decided to get closer. He suddenl y landed on top of my spaghetti! I shooed him off my food. This wouldn’t have been so bad except for one thing: When Luke had landed on my plate, he had grabbed(抓) my spaghetti with his feet. So when Luke took off again, the spaghetti went flying everywhere. It landed on my shirt. It hit me in the face. Red sauce splattered(溅) up the wall and onto the ceiling. See how dangerous reading can be. If you really like to read while you eat, you must keep one eye on your food. But you’d better eat up your food and then read your book. Why? If you find a novel at the library with red spots on two pages, you’ll k now that I’ve read that book.4. What does the underlined word “hazardous” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. excitingB. strangeC. dangerousD. special5. What did Luke do when the author was reading and eating ?A. It made a mess in the room.B. It learned to talk to the author.C. It took away the author’s book.D. It ate all the spaghetti with meatballs.6. What does the author advise readers to do?A. Keep pets in the house all the time.B. Take good care of pets when you eat.C. Enjoy your book after finishing your eating.D. Spend more time reading books in the library.7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this text?A. To introduce a delicious food.B. To tell an interesting experience.C. To suggest ways to choose books.D. To show reading is a wonderful thing.CBeing an astronaut(宇航员) sounds cool, doesn’t it? In space, they can float(漂浮) in zero gravity. However, there are also plenty of things th at astronauts can’t do because of their weightless environmen t, and that’s very sad. What’s worse, they can’t even let their s adness show— because it’s impossible to cry in zero gravity. Of course, astronauts can still produce tears. But without grav ity, tears don’t flow downward out of the eyes. This means tha t when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to go— the y just stick to your eyes which can cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears usually bring comfort to the eyes. But that’s no t the case in space. The space environment dries out astrona uts’ eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes, it can cause pain rather than comfort.Since gravity doesn’t work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get rid of the tears. They can also rub(擦) his eyes t o wipe the tears away. Another choice is to just wait—when the tears get big enough they simply break free of the e ye and float around.There are lots of small things that we are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted, until they become a proble m in a totally different environment, like space. There, astrona uts can’t talk to each other directly. They also can’t eat or drin k in normal ways. They can’t even burp(打嗝), because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing up(呕吐) everything in their stomach.Thus, perhaps it’s only space explorers who can honestly say,“Gravity,you’re the best.”8. What bad effect do tears have on astronauts?A. They cause physical pain.B. They bring comfort to them.C. They help them get better sight.D. They float around and cause trouble.9. What can the astronaut do to get rid of the tears?A. Close their eyes.B. Wait till tears flow down.C. Let the tears dry up.D. Wait till the tears get big enough.10. What’s the second-to-last paragraph mainly about?A. Suggestions on how astronauts can stay comfortable in s pace.B. Other basic things that are difficult to do in space.C. The environment in space is totally different.D. Why burping is impossible in space.11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. What can you do in space?B. Better life with gravity.C. In the sky, you can’t cry.D. No gravity, no tears.DA group of homeless children in the Indian capital of publis h a newspaper telling about their own lives.
