山东省枣庄市第三中学2017-2018学年高一1月学情调查英语试题第Ⅰ卷(共100分)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)A“To educate a girl is to educate a thousand people,” says Maimouna Samaké, a mother of six children (including five girls). “If you put one seed in the ground and rain comes, it will grow to produce many seeds.”Samaké, one of 2,000 residents, lives in a small village, Sounkala, in one of the world’s poorest countries. Now she has a chance to see this wish come true thanks to Build On, an American non-profit organization that is building a school in her community.For 17 years, build On has been sending American high school students overseas to create schools in places where literacy (文化) and formal education are usually out of reach. The organization has built about 300 schools in Mali, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal, Nicaragua and Haiti. Its goal is to get young Americans in mostly urban areas to get involved in education. At the same time it can bring literacy to children and adults in poor villages in the developing world.Sounkala’s current school only has about 70 children; mud floors, poor lighting, few desks and an absence of books mean that the school is not the most ideal learning environment. Therefore they certainly could use Build On’s help.Samaké hasn’t been to school, but she wants a better future for her five daughters, including Ramatou, 12, and Mariam, 10. “When a woman attends school, she will teach what she learns to her children,” said Ramatou, who wants to become a doctor. “She will also know how to take better care of her family.”Build On tries to build schools for grades one to three. If things go well over those three years, they return to help build another school for grades four to six, and then set up evening adult literacy classes.Ramatou and Mariam will not learn inside the walls of build On school since they are already in the sixth grade, but Samaké hopes that they will be able to attend evening classes to continue learning.1.

Pretending to be mad, Bly was admitted to an asylum (精神病院), which was hardly fit for humans. The articles she wrote not only changed how reporters did research, but the situation of hospitals. Her next adventure was one that made her world-famous: Bly made a trip around the world. She set out on November 14, 1889 and made it back to New York in a time of 72 days, 6 hours and 11 minutes. .Freya Starklife began in the late 1920s. She was the first European woman to enter Luristan in Iran. In the mountains, she mapped out the area for westerners for the first time. Returning from this adventure, she wrote the first of nearly thirty books on travel that are still read today. She continued traveling until the end of her life.Annie Smith PeckAnnie Smith Peck achieved academic success in her twenties. She was one of the first women professors in North America and the first woman to study archaeology (考古学) in Greece. However, when she was 44, Peck took up mountain climbing while in Europe, becoming the third woman to climb up the Matterhorn. The northern top of Mount Huascarán was renamed in her honor. She continued to climb into old age.Louise BoydBorn into wealth, Louise Boyd was the "first woman to reach the North Pole in an airplane, in 1955. Her first Arctic (北极) adventure was in 1926 when she spent time filming and photographing the environment of the Arctic. Her most famous adventure was taking part in the hunt for famous adventurer Roald Amundsen, who had disappeared while helping an Italian airship.

They all became famous in the 20th century.DWhen we decide to teach children at home by ourselves, we use every resource (资源) to aid us in filling our children’s minds with valuable information. At times, television can even be not only a resource for us, but an impor tant resource.The main focus (焦点) should not be whether kids, homeschooled or not, should watch TV. The real focus needs to be: What is the best choice for my child in this period of life and learning? For some people, this will mean replacing the entertainment center with exercise equipment; for others it will be to allow a few hours of carefully chosen programming each day or week.Television has some very valuable programming that can add richness to your daily homeschool lessons.My own children are learning about Native Americans at present and we found a program called Into the West. The program did a beautiful job presenting the Westward Movement from two different sides: the Native Americans and the White Settlers. My children were shocked by the contrast (对比) between the two, and for our family this program was a central part of this unit study.What works for my family may not work for yours. Quite honestly, that’s OK because what works for your family may not work for mine.As parents, we need to be purposeful about our children’s activities: including television. No one can tell you whether you should buy a big-screen TV or to throw away what you have. The goal is to decide which types of resources benefit your children’s education, entertainment, and quality of life. No one can decide this for you.Once you make a decision, you will stop comparing your family with another homeschool family.13. According to the author, what matters most in the discussion about television?A. Whether kids should watch TV or not.B. How much TV should homeschool kids watch,C. What is the best way for kids to grow and learn.D. How to choose programs both kids and parents enjoy.14. The author shows some television programming can be useful by _______.A. making a contrastB. giving an exampleC. explaining reasons and resultsD. describing the progress his children have made15. The text is written for _______.A. homeschool parentsB. television producersC. teachersD. students第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

and eventuallybuilt his own home in Stonington Borough.His life stories have become so popular, in fact, nearly 800 copies weresold in the firsttwo weeks of the book's release last month.One thousand morehave since been printed as requests for the book flood in from as far as Germany.And now even Hollywood producers haveapproached Mr.Henry about optioning the rights to his life story for a big screen adaptation.56.Which of the following is true of Mr.Henry?A.He couldn't read when he was retired.B.He was not a good student at school.C.Only his family members knew he was illiterate.D.He published his book at the age of 91.57.Mr.Henry made up his mind to study because he .A.had some trouble with his granddaughterB.couldn't sign the document he was givenC.wanted to share his own experience with othersD.was inspired by George Dawson's story58.How did Mr.Henry carry on his studies?A.He began with the children's books.B.He was helped out by his granddaughter.C.He started from the very beginning.D.He didn't stop even when his wife died.59.In his book, Mr.Henry didn't mention ____.A.his family story B.his school educationC.his journeys at sea D.his work experiences60.What's the main idea of the last paragraph?A.Nearly 800 copies of the book were sold.B.The book was sold well in Germany.C.His book was popular both at home and abroad.D.Hollywood has planned to adapt his book for a movie.BAround 200 people who thought their only experience of the London 2018 Olympic Gameswould be minor heats of synchronized swimming <花样游泳)have received an unexpectedhange to the men's 100m final because of an embarrassing ticketing mistake.The London 2018 Organising Committee <Locog) confirmed on Wednesday that an errorn its ticket selling had led to four synchronised swimming competitions being oversold by 10,000 tickets.Locog and its ticket agent spent the Christmas period contacting ticket holders and offering them alternatives that included the tickets they had applied for but unsuccessful.Thehanges need no additional cost.It has also offered to return any discrepancy <差额) if the n ew tickets cost less than the originals.Locog said the replacement tickets would come from anumber of unsold seats across the Olympic Games and it was doing all it could to make up theerror to the fans who bought tickets .Locog said the error occurred in the summer, between the first and second round of ticketsales, when a member of staff made a mistake, entering "20,000" into the computer ratherthan the correct figure of 10,000 remaining tickets.Theerror was discovered when Locogchecked the number of tickets that had been sold against the final seating numbers, and begancontacting ticket holders before Christmas.Thousands of ticket holders have already struck lucky, changing to tickets for major events including swimming and athletics finals, and in around 200 cases the hottest of all, themen's 100m final.Locog said the decision to award 100m final tickets was made because one ofthe synchronised swimming competitions was on the same afternoon as the event, August 5.61.As a result of the ticketing mistake, about 200 people ____.A.will luckily be able to watch the men's 100m finalB.will not enjoy the synchronized swimming eventsC.willhave to change their tickets to other gamesD.have applied for tickets to the men's 100m final62.In order to solve the problem, the Locog ____.A.required the holders to return the ticketsB.allowed the holders to apply for another ticketC.would charge the discrepancy for changing the ticketsD.offered to change the tickets without any extra cost 63.The underlined word "it" in the third paragraph refers to ____.B.the ticketing mistakeA.LocogD.the additional costC.the Olympic Games64.How many ticket holders will have to change their tickets?D.30,000.C.20,000.A.200.B.10,000.65.Which of the following is true according to the text?A.The synchronized swimming is the hottest of the Olympics.B.Thousands of ticket holders refused to change their tickets.C.The men's 100m final will take place on August 5, 2018.D.The number of tickets for synchronised swimming is 10,000.COne often hears it said that travel broadens the mind.But does this alwayshappen? When an acquaintance of mine returned from France, I asked him how he liked it."Thebreakfasts were terrible." he said, "No bacon or kippers.I had fried eggs and chips, but itwas quiet a business getting themto make them." Obviously travel had not broadened hismind.He had judged it entirely from his own English viewpoints.All nationalities, in all foreign countries, can be found judging what they see, hear, tasteand smell according to their own habits and customs.People who are better educated and whohave read a lot about foreign countries tend to adapt and tolerate all easily.That is becausetheir minds have already been broadened before they start travelling.Physical differences are not so difficult to be adapted to as mental ones.In Indonesia, theleft hand is considered unclean.When a foreigner offers or takes something with his left hand,the Indonesian may explain this action as arisingfrom a difference in custom, but the deepprejudice against the use of the left hand will not be so easily done away with.There are some travelers who adapt themselves so successfully to foreign customs andhabits that they get the severe criticisms of their more stubborn fellow-countrymen.If theyare Asians, they are accused of having become "Westernized", and if they are Europeans,people say they have "gone native".Perhaps the ideal would be if travel could succeed m making peopletolerate thehabits andcustoms of others without abandoning their own.The criterion for judging a foreigner couldbe "Does he try to be polite and considerate to others?" instead of "Is he like me?66.The author mentions his acquaintance's travel to show____.A.the breakfasts are terrible in FranceB.the English style of life is betterC.travel can't always broaden one's mindD.it is not easy to get used to the life in France67.The better educated people ___ _.A.are adapted easily to foreign customs and habitsB.always judge things fromtheir own viewpointsC.never have an open mind to different culturesD.tend to compare two kinds of habits and customs 68.Which of the following can best replace of the underlined phrase "doneaway with" in Paragraph 4?C.made up forB.taken place ofA.put up withD.got rid of 69.According to Paragraph 5, those who adapt themselves successfully are___.B.sometimes criticizedA.better understood D.never toleratedC.well accepted70.We can infer from the text that ____.A.cultural differences are never tolerated in all countriesB."travel broadens the mind sometimes doesn't make senseC.cultural differences are not difficult to be adapted toD.one should try to copy foreign customs when travellingDFriday, December 30, 2018has been cut for the tiny South Pacific island nation, Samoaas it moved its time zone 24 hours ahead to catch up with Asia, New Zealand and Australia.On New Year's Eve, Samoa will Slave jumped to the west of the international dateline, whichruns through the Pacific Ocean and broadly follows the 180 degree line of longitude <经线).Its Prime Minister said it would make it easier for Samoa to trade with their key partners."No longer shall we have people ringing us up on Monday from New Zealand and Australiathinking it is Monday when we are closing our eyes and praying at churches.And in the sameway, on our Fridays when we ring up and already our contacts are holidaying on their Saturdays," he told Radio NewZealand on Friday.To help win public support, the government declared employers must still pay workersfor the missing Friday, although banks will not be allowed to charge interest for the lost day.Countries are free to choose whether the dateline passes to the east or west, and Samoa'sdecision means all new maps will need to change.But some tourism operators are worried Samoa will lose business by losing its position as the last place on earth to see the sunset eachday, although it is now one of the first places to see in each new day.Samoa, a country of about 180,000 people, used to be in the same time zone as New Zealand and Australia, but went back a day in 1892, celebrating July 4 twice and aligning itselfwith the United States.The date change is not the first major change in Samoa in recentyears.In 2009, the country switched to driving on the left hand side of the road from the righthand side, in line with New Zealand and Australia.71.Samoa moved its timezone 24 hours ahead to ____.A.trade with the United StatesB.be the first place to see in each new dayC.follow the international datelineD.be in the same time zone as Australia72.Which of the following is true according to the text?A.It's Monday now in Samoa while it is Sunday in America.B.Samoa once had a date change about 200 years ago.C.Samoa and America are now in the same time zone.D.In Samoa, cars move on the right hand side of the road.73.On the missing Friday, ___ in Samoa,A.banks still charged interest B.all the people had a day offC.workers still got paid D.all celebrated New Year's Eve74.The underlined word "aligning" in the last paragraph possibly means ____.A.celebrating B.adjusting C.moving D.trading75.What's the text mainly about?A.The change of international dateline.B.The first nation to greet New Year.C.A new neighbor of Australia.D.A new date change in Samoa.第Ⅱ卷<三部分,45分)第四部分:书西褒达<共两节,满分45分)第一节:阅读表达<共5小题,每小题3分,满分15分)阅读下两短文,并根据短文后地要求回答问题<请注意问题后地字数要求).[l]Most of us have one or a few habits that we'd like to

)AOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can yo u be a good friend at school?Listen — Listen when they are talking. Don't say anything unl ess they ask you a question. Sometimes it's not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk t o about their feelings.Help them — If your friend is ever in need of something, be th ere to help them. You should try to put them first, but make su re you don't do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra(额外的)pencil or pen with you to classes in case(以防)they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them — Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times. Making cards and e ncouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend. Marilyn Monroe, a famous US. actor, once said, “I ofte n make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control. But if you ca n't stay with me at my worst, you are sure not to deserve(值得)to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you do n't want to stay with your friends when they're in hard times, t hen you don't deserve to be with them when they're having a good time!______ — Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, g o for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take ti me to know each other even better by doing something you b oth enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a g ood time. And you'll remember these things when you're all ol d!1. What should you do when your friend is talking to you abou t his or her feelings?A. Doing nothing but your own thingsB. Sharing your feelings and opinionC. Calming him or her downD. Just listening unless asked2. When our friends need our help, we should ______.A. try to do everything for themB. put them before ourselvesC. change their bad habits firstD. ignore their faults3. What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe's words?A. Life without a friend is death.B. A friend is easier lost than found.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. A man is known by his friends.4. Which of the following can be put in the blank of the last pa ragraph?A. Make plans.B. Enjoy yourself.C. Understand your friends.D. Play with your friends.BWhat is language for? Some people seem to think it’s for prac tising grammar rules and learning lists of words -the longer the lists, the better. That’s wrong. Language is for t he exchange (交流) of ideas and information. It’s meaningless knowing all abo ut a language if you can’t use it freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can’t speak co rrectly or fluently. They are afraid of making mistakes. One sh ouldn’t be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, to o. Bernard Shaw once wrote, “Foreigners often speak English too correctly.” But the mistakes that native speakers make ar e different from those that Chinese students make. They’re E nglish mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong, becomes right. People not only make history, they ma ke language. But a people can only make its own language. It can’t make another people’s language. So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn’t overdo (做过头) it. They should put communication(交际)first.5. Language is used to________.A. record some informationB. practise grammar rulesC. talk with foreigners onlyD. express oneself6. Generally, when an American or an Englishman speaks En glish, he or she________.A. never makes mistakesB. often makes mistakesC. can’t avoid making mistakesD. always makes mistakes7. The sentence “Foreigners often speak English too correctly .” means that________.A. foreigners always learn standard EnglishB. foreigners speak English more carefullyC. foreigners speak English according to the grammar rulesD. foreigners never make mistakes when they speak English8. When we speak a foreign language, we should________.A. speak in native wayB. speak by the rulesC. speak to native speakersD. not be afraid of making mistakesCThere are many differences between British English and Ame rican English. I used to teach a course about the differences b etween the two. We speak English on both sides of the Atlanti c Ocean but we have many differences in our common langua ge. We have examples of the same words having very different meanings, differing spellings of the same words as well as completely different words for the same things. Here are som e examples.A cookie in the US is called a biscuit in the UK. A biscuit in th e US is a small cake in the UK. Crisps in the UK, are known a s chips, but we British people eat a plate of chips that you call fries in the US. In the UK, a pie can be made from either mea t or fruit, while in the US pies are normally made from fruit; pot pies are made from meat. Most things are measured in gram s and kilograms in the US, not pounds and ounces.One very obvious(明显的)difference is the side of the road we each choose to drive o n. Petrol in the UK is gas in the US. The place where we fill u p our cars, in the UK, is a garage; while in the US, it’s a gas st ation. The term garage is also used as a place to store your c ar next to or close by your house. In the UK we call a lorry wh at is known as a truck in the US.An elevator in the US is called a lift here, and the first floor in t he US, is called the ground floor here, so many visitors get off on the wrong floor in British hotels.I could continue with this. There are countless examples of dif ferences within our one shared language. With so many differ ences, no wonder it’s hard to understand each other well.9. The passage is mainly about the differences between British English and American English in________.A. vocabularyB. grammarC. soundD. spelling10. We can infer (推断)that the author may be________.A. a driver from the USB. a teacher from the UKC. a cook from the USD. a gas station worker from the UK11. In the author’s opinion, ________.A. language differences don’t affect understandingB. the same words in the two different types of English may h ave different spellingsC. there will be fewer differences between American and Briti sh English in the futureD. it is impossible that some Americans get off on the wrong fl oor in British hotels12. What can we learn from the passage?A. “Elevator” is commonly used in the UK.B. Pies mean the same thing in the UK and the US.C. In the UK, things are measured in pounds and ounces.D. British and American people drive on the same side of the road.DA friend is better than fortune.A friend may be worse than poison in some cases.The two sentences above have opposite meanings and seem to be unreasonable, but they can be explained as follows: the first refers to all good friends who drive us towards good while the second refers to all bad ones who lead us into bad ways. My ideal friend is of course a good friend whose goodness is shown below: He has no bad habits, such as smoking and dri nking. He lives a simple life. He studies hard so as not to wast e his golden time. At home he honours his parents and loves his brothers; at school he respects his teachers and shares th e feelings of his classmates. He treats those truly who are tru e to him. In a word, he has all the good characteristics that I d on't have. I can follow him as a model. With his help I can be f ree from all difficulties.Indeed, if I have such a person as my friend, I shall never fear difficulties and I shall never know the existence of the word “failure”.13. This passage is mainly about ______.A. how to make friendsB. when to make friendsC. where friendship lieD. what friends we should make14. According to the writer, an ideal friend should be the pers on who ______.A. has many brothersB. has no bad habitsC. is respected by the othersD. is different from the others15. If the writer has an ideal friend, he would ______.A. find it easy to succeedB. meet many difficultiesC. know what is failureD. fear difficulties第二部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空(共20小题,每小题1分,满分20分。

A“To educate a girl is to educate a thousand people,” says Maimouna Samaké, a mother of six children (including five girls). “If you put one seed in the ground and rain comes, it will grow to produce many seeds.”Samaké, one of 2,000 residents, lives in a small village, Sounkala, in one of the world‟s poorest countries. Now she has a chance to see this wish come true thanks to Build On, an Americannon-profit organization that is building a school in her community.For 17 years, build On has been sending American high school students overseas to create schools in places where literacy (文化) and formal education are usually out of reach. The organization has built about 300 schools in Mali, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal, Nicaragua and Haiti. Its goal is to get young Americans in mostly urban areas to get involved in education. At the same time it can bring literacy to children and adults in poor villages in the developing world.Sounkala‟s current school only has about 70 children; mud floors, poor lighting, few desks and an absence of books mean that the school is not the most ideal learning environment. Therefore they certainly could use Build On‟s help.Samaké hasn‟t been to school, but she wants a better future for her five daughters, including Ramatou, 12, and Mariam, 10. “When a woman atten ds school, she will teach what she learns to her children,” said Ramatou, who wants to become a doctor. “She will also know how to take better care of her family.”Build On tries to build schools for grades one to three. If things go well over those three years, they return to help build another school for grades four to six, and then set up evening adult literacy classes.Ramatou and Mariam will not learn inside the walls of build On school since they are already in the sixth grade, but Samaké hopes that they will be able to attend evening classes to continue learning.1.
