2020-2021学年江西省赣州市南康中学高一上学期第三次大考(11月)英语试卷

2020-2021学年江西赣州高一上英语月考试卷一、阅读理解1.We all know the dangers of fires. It's good and necessary for a family to learn how to prepare for a fire. Here are some suggestions.Put a smoke alarm（火警）in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off. The alarm makes a loud sound. The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once.Make escape plans. We should know all the ways out of the house. If there is a fire, everyone follows the plan to get out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be opened easily.Buy fire extinguishers（灭火器）in the house. Everyone in the family should know how to use them.Practice for a fire. We do fire practice because we teach children about fire safety. Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules:Don't open a hot door! The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door.Stay close to the floor! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire. The best air is near the floor because smoke rises.What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn? First, stop! Don't run! The fire burns faster because of more air. Drop! Fall to the floor. Then roll! Turning over and over will make the fire go out. Put a blanket around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you.There are many possible causes for fires. A wise family is ready all the time. If there is a fire, don't forget to call 119 for help.（1）When a smoke alarm rings at home, it means ________.A.you have to get upB.water is running to the floorC.something is burningD.someone breaks your window（2）The writer advises us to do the following to get ready for a fire Except that ________.A.we practice for a fireB.we make escape plansC.we buy fire extinguishersD.we use electrical（电的）cookers（3）What is the best title for this passage?A.Be Ready for a FireB.The Causes of a FireC.Learn to Use a Fire ExtinguisherD.The Dangers of a Fire 2.As prices and building costs keep rising, the "do-it-yourself"（DIY）trend（趋势）in the U.S. continues to grow."We needed furniture（家具）for our living room." Says John Ross, "and we just didn't have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs." John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. "I was deeply upset about it. Now I've finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car by myself."John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a "do-it-yourself", you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don't have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.（1）We can learn from the text that many newly married people ________.A.find it hard to pay for what they needB.have to learn to make their own furnitureC.take DIY courses run by the governmentD.seldom go to a department store to buy things（2）John and his wife went to evening classes to learn how to ________.A.run a DIY shopB.make or repair thingsC.save time and moneyD.improve the quality of life（3）When the writer says Jim has a full-time job at home, he means Jim ________.A.makes shoes in his homeB.does extra work at nightC.does his own car and home repairsD.keeps house and looks after his children（4）Jim Hatfield decided to become a"do-it-yourself" when ________.A.he could impossibly have two jobsB.the car repair class was not helpfulC.his car repairs cost too muchD.he had to raise the children by himself3.Several years ago, I worked as a truck driver for a company. On Saturday I usually went there and spent several hours doing something to keep my truck in good condition. On one Saturday morning, as I was cleaning my truck, I noticed the boss's elderly father came out to ask his grand-son to take him fishing after work.The grandson told him all about how much he would love to do that, but he just couldn't that day because he had other plans already. The old man hobbled（蹒跚）off to the house. Then I heard the grandson telling his dad, "For the physical（身体的）safety, I'm not taking that old man fishing! It's worse than taking a kid." That just broke my heart.I omitted working immediately and went home to fetch my fishing gear（渔具）and a chair. Then I came back and invited the old man to go fishing. He accepted happily. When we got to the river, I let him sit in the chair at the edge of the water. It wasn't long before he got a fish. He got one after another. His eyes were shining. About half an hour later, he told me he was tired and wanted to go home. So I took him and the fish home.Two weeks later, the old man died. His family told me later that all he talked about during that time was his fishing trip. I am satisfied to know I took an old man on his last fishing trip, but I am sorry that his family has lost their last chance. Whenever you get the chance, don't forget about taking Grandpa fishing. Someday, you may be in the same place and you'll want your family to care of you, too.（1）The writer writes the passage mainly to ________.A.tell us something about his workB.advice us to take Grandpa fishingC.tell us about the good things he once didD.persuade us to care of the elderly（2）The old man's grandson refused to fish with him because ________.A.he had something more important to do that dayB.he was afraid that something serious would happen to himC.he was tired of his job and he wanted to restD.he liked to stay with children at home（3）What's the possible meaning of the underlined word "omitted" in the 3rd passage?A.Started.B.Continued.C.Stopped.D.Tried.（4）According to the passage, we can infer that the writer ________.A.is kind and warm-heartedB.is willing to make his boss happyC.prefers fishing to his workD.is in need of care from his family4.I was driving home the other day on a sunny afternoon. It was such a beautiful day that I felt very happy. My good mood（心情）ended, however, when I suddenly heard a piece of news on the radio about a rich famous man who had broken the law. I shook my head as I came to a red traffic light.As I stopped, I noticed four leather-jacketed motorbikers. They were standing in the middle of the road with two on either side of the light. They looked dangerous, but as I got closer I noticed each one was holding their helmet（头盔）in their hands. I rolled down my window as one approached my car. "We are the Brother of the Wheel," he said. "We are collecting money for Christmas Toy Drive for needy children." As I pulled a dollar out of my wallet, I looked past his beard and into his eyes. They shined with kindness that came right from his heart. I dropped the money in his helmet and waved to the other three men as I drove off. My good mood had returned. And I remembered once again never to judge（判断）people by their appearance（外表）.Our society often judges books by their covers. Perhaps one day we will realize that actions（行为）are much more important than appearance.（1）The writer's good mood ended when ________.A.he had to give money to the manB.he had to stop at a red traffic lightC.he heard a rich man broke the lawD.he saw four leather-jacketed motor bikers（2）What were the four motor bikers doing at the traffic lights?A.Selling helmets to the passers-by.B.Preparing for Christmas holidays.C.Having a motorbike race in the street.D.Raising money to help kids in need.（3）What is the meaning of the underlined word needy in the 2th passage?A.Bad.B.Poor.C.Kind.D.Jobless.（4）The writer wants to tell us that we should ________.A.judge others by their actionsB.change our attitude to societyC.manage to help others in needD.trust young people二、七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It’s a great event for first-timers because everyone is cheered on with enthusiasm no matter how long it takes to cross the finish line. The time limit for the full marathon is now at a pace of minutes per mile, or 6 hours and 33 minutes, but in the past it had an open time limit.

However, the organizers allow everyone to finish and have waiters on hand until 4: 00 pm.Boston MarathonThe marathon is held in May every year.

The monkey in the video is called Pager, having special "Link" devices inside his brain. These devices are connected to 2,048 wires which lead to the parts of Pager's brain that control movements of the arms and hands.Scientists taught Pager to play a video game using a banana juice as a reward when he playedthe game correctly. Soon Pager was eager to play well in order to get more smoothie. At first, Pager controlled the video game using a joystick (操纵杆). But as Pager played, his Link devices wirelessly sent out information about the signals his brain was using to control his arms and hands. Neuralink's scientists recorded all of these signals.Then they used computers to match up the signals from Pager's brain to the movements that his hands were actually doing. This was challenging work and the scientists counted on artificial intelligence (AI) to help them decode (解码) Pager's brain signals.The next step was to have a computer make moves in the video game as if Pager had actually moved the joystick. If Pager thought about moving the joystick up, the computer would send an "up"signal to the video game. Thus Pager was able to play the video game using just his brain.When people are paralyzed (瘫痪的), it's often because the brain has lost the ability to send signals to nerves and muscles in certain parts of the body. Neuralink hopes that one day, its system will be ableto send this information in a different way, allowing paralyzed people to use their arms or legs again.4. What does Neuralink aim to do?A. To make monkeys much smarter.B. To solve complex problems with monkeys.C. To create a device linking monkeys and people.D. To make people control things with their brains.5. How does the author introduce the process of the research?A. In order of time.B. By making a comparison.C. By giving examples.D. In order of space.6. What played an important role in the success of the research?A. The joystick.B. Artificial intelligence.C. The video game.D. The banana smoothie.7. Which is the most suitable title of the test?A. Neuralink Posts an Unusual VideoB. Disabled People Have a Bright FutureC. Monkey Plays Video Games with His MindD. Neuralink, a Creative and Competitive CompanyCMark Twain,the famous American writer,was once traveling in France.He went by trainto Dijon.He was very tired and wanted to sleep.He therefore asked the conductor to wake him up when the train came to Dijon.But first he explained he was a very heavy sleeper,“I may possibly protest(抗议)loudly when you try to wake me up,” he said to the conductor.“But don’t take any notice of what I say.Just put me off the train anyway.”Then Mark Twain went to ter,when he woke up it was night time and the train had reached Paris already.He realized at once that the conductor had forgotten to wake him up at Dijon.He was so angry that he ran to the conductor and began to shout at him.“I have never been so angry in my life,” Mark Twain said.The conductor looked at him calmly(平静地).“You are not half so angry as the American whom I put off the train atDijon,” he said.8.

The decision was announced during the online meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held from December 14 to19 inKingston, capital ofJamaica.“Born in the mid-17th century in a small village named Chenjiagou located in Central China's Henan province, Tai Chi is not only a kind of traditional Wushu integrated with slow movements and deep breathing, but is also deeply rooted in many areas of Chinese culture, such as medicine and philosophy,”Zhu Xianghua says, who is the son of the famous Tai Chi master Zhu Tiancai.Although it has spread to more than 150 countries and regions, attracting more than 100 million people to practice, the idea that Tai Chi is for the elderly has stopped many young people practicing the ancient Wushu. They think of it as a slow exercise, which is specially made and better suited for their grandparents. Instead, many young people are turning to the Indian practice of yoga（瑜伽）to relieve stress, which was placed on the UNESCO's List in 2019.In order to promote Tai Chi, joint efforts have been made from individuals and the Chinese government in the last decades. Xi'an Jiaotong University requires students to learn Tai Chi. Wang Yunbing, a professor in the university's sports center, stressed that Tai Chi is not only good physical exercise-researchers from the AmericanCollege of Rheumatology find that it can help manage several diseases but is also conned ted to ancient Chinese eivilization. Since 2014, the World Tai Chi Championships have been held every two years by the International Wushu Federation. It provides a platform for communication and learning between the Tai Chi masters and Tai Chi lovers around the globe. In January 2020, Tai Chi became an official event in the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games.12. What does Zhu Xianghua say about Tai Chi in paragraph 2?A. It originated from fast Kung Fu action.B. It was born around the 1750s in a village.C. It is related to other cultural fields ofChina.D. It integrates Chinese medicine and western philosophy.13. Why do some young people choose to practice yoga instead of Tai Chi?A. They think it easier to practice yoga to keep fit.B. The elderly stop young people practicing Tai Chi.C. They consider Tai Chi is custom-built for old people.D. Yoga was included in the world culture earlier than Tai Chi.14. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?A.
