Don't let the other player surprise him.D. Don't keep thinking about his mistakes.7.What does the author say about his behaviour in tournaments？______A. He tries to keep calm during the game.B. He broke his racket once when he was angry.C. He stays away from players who behave badly.D. He found it difficult to deal with one judge's decisions.CGiant pandas are no longer endangered,Chinese officials have said,decades of work to save the creatures helped drive their population in the wild up to 1，800.The species will be listed as vulnerable（易危物种），Cui Shuhong,director of the Department of Natural Ecological Protection of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment,said at a press conference on Wednesday.China has spent half a century attempting to boost the population of its famous animals,creating panda reserves across several mountain ranges in an effort to save them from extinction.They were taken off the endangered list by the International Union for Conservation of Nature （IUCN）in 2016，but that decision was not released by Chinese officials.Since the 1970s,Chinese officials have worked on a campaign to drive up their numbers.To prevent habitat loss,officials created specially designed nature reserves in areas where theirmain food source,bamboo,is plentiful.In 2017，China announced plans for a 10，476- square-mile reserve,which is three times the size of Yellowstone National Park."China has established a relatively complete nature reserves system," Cui said on Wednesday as he announced the move. "Large areas of natural ecosystems have been systematically and completely protected,and wildlife habitats have been effectively improved."Pandas are known in China as an umbrella species,which means experts believe measures to protect them would help protect other species,as well as the larger ecosystem.Cui added that the populations of some other rare and endangered species are gradually recovering as well. "The number of species such as Siberian tigers,Amur leopards,and Asian elephants has increased significantly." he said.8.What have happened to giant pandas？______A. They will never be protected in future.B. Their reserves will be decreasing sharply.C. They were not listed as endangered species.D. They have to face the worsening situations.9.What's the meaning of the underlined word "boost" in paragraph 2？______A. Increase.B. Maintain.C. Cancel.D. Reduce.10.What's the area of Yellowstone National Park______A. 3，492 square meters.B. 3，492 square miles.C. 5，238 square miles.D. 5，238 square meters.11.What can we know about an umbrella species？______A. They can improve the production of umbrellas.B. Protecting it means endangering other species.C. They are not at the top of food chain in nature.D. Protecting it is beneficial to a larger ecosystem.DThrowing a rock into a calm body of water creates a ripple（涟漪）effect across the calm pond,until those ripples reach the edge of the water.It can be a beautiful experience and it also explains how our actions affect other people.When we display love and kindness to others,the feeling ripples out to people in our inner circle,and the impact of our actions extends out further.The same logic also applies to hate or anger.It is important that we should begin being more thoughtful about our actions and words.Love can reach so many different people,making it a powerful force in the world.Hate has the same effect.The world would be a better place if we learn to love and show kindness to others instead of anger.We can't always control what others do,but we have power over our actions and contribute our own ripples into the world.We don't always know the impact that our actions have on others.There will be times when you are angry.Some people may feel a sense of temporary relief when they throw a rock of hate into the world,but that feeling usually changes into shame and anger towards oneself eventually.Hate hurts yourself and the world in the meanwhile.I recommend walking away for a while when you feel angry.Kindness is like perfume（香水）.Spreading love and kindness not only has positive effects on others but also on ourselves.You get to enjoy it,and the people around you can enjoy it too.Personally,I feel my best when I help others and I feel my worst when I've made someone upset.When we put kindness into the world,we'll feel thankfulness,sympathy,and understanding.Let my kindness guide my decisions and this allows love and connection to ripple out into the world.It's important that we take care of ourselves when we show love and kindness to others.When we love ourselves,we're then able to love others.And when we let this love and kindness guide our decisions,the world will become more beautiful.12.Why does the author mention the experience of throwing a rock into a pond______A. To teach us how to make big ripples.B. To introduce the topic of this text.C. To see how the ripples spread in water.D. To share an interesting experience.13.What does the author advise you to do when you are angry？______A. Find a place to think over what has happened.B. Talk about your problems with someone else.C. Stop those ripples of anger from spreading.D. Avoid seeing the person making you angry.14.How is the third paragraph mainly developed______A. By referring to a theory.B. By making comparisons.C. By giving some examples.D. By analyzing cause and effect.15.Which of the following can be the best title for the text______A. Hate usually leads to shame and anger in the endB. Anger has a similar effect on our actions to kindnessC. Kindness or anger ripples out to other people nearbyD. Love and kindness make the world much more beautiful二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Simplicity is a lifestyle that takes away the unimportant things in your life.It removes or changes those things that cause you to feel stressed out,and allows you to absolutely focus on what's important.Of course,no one can suddenly lead a simple life.

陕西省榆林市2023-2024学年高一上学期1月期末英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Several Musts for the New TermWith a new university term looking for either returning or new students, here are some musts to consider for the school year ahead.Storage bag with handlesWhether you’re a freshman or returning for a new year, you have to move to your university. This is where moving boxes come in, but if you’d rather not be troubled by luggage, these storage bags are a nice choice. They have strong handles and keep water out.Led alarm clockMake sure you wake up on time for all of your lectures with this LED alarm clock. It’s also multi-functional, doubling up as a mirror that you can use through the day. It has one USB port, as well as a wall hook and a stand for keeping it upright.Trouser hangerWe’ve all been there, not having quite enough room for your clothes and wondering how you can magically fit more clothes into the same space. In University the problem is worse, but this simple hanger set can conveniently hold jeans, trousers, skirts and more, helping to ease this common problem.Mini humidifier(增湿器)Humidifiers don’t often get talked about too much in terms of things that would be good to have in a bedroom, but there are benefits to having them. They make the room air properly wet to aid with dry skin, nose and throat issues and improve sleep.View it at Amazon●If you show interest in the goods above, you can click the link to know more about them.1．The alarm clock can also be used to________.A．make up B．watch videos C．monitor health D．make calls 2．Which is helpful for improving sleep?A．The alarm clock.B．The trouser hanger.3．Where can we probably read the passage?A．In a sports magazine.B．In a chemical paper.C．On a website.D．In a textbook.Do you like travelling? No matter travelling alone, with friends, or with a tour group, they all have advantages and disadvantages.The best thing about travelling alone is that you can do what you want to do. No waiting around in places you aren’t interested in, no missing a bus because your friend was late. Your experience will be greatly improved by travelling alone. The main worry is loneliness, but believe me, it’s not difficult to talk to and meet people. Just remember everyone is on the same boat; everyone wants to meet new people, have fun and be friendly! There’s a problem of safety in some countries, especially for women travelling alone. You should always check the foreign office of your country for advice on safety. Buying a personal alarm is a good idea for women travelling alone.Travelling with a friend does sound nice, but it depends on how well you get on: If you have similar interests or travel ideas, it should be wonderful. You will find it much cheaper to cook food in developed countries and share a room. However, a lot of people I meet travelling together don’t seem to be having as much fun and often go their separate ways.Tours are great when they go well. Some of my best memories have been with tour groups. The key there is when they go well. A terrible tour guide, quiet group and terrible food can ruin our time. My advice would be never to do a tour that is too long especially in countries with safety problems or poor transport.All in all, travelling alone is the best, but it is good to mix it up. Invite a friend from home to meet you for a few weeks. Try a tour or two—some people love them—perhaps start with a day tour.4．How many ways of travelling are mentioned in the passage?A．Two.B．Three.C．Four.D．Five. 5．Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A．Other travellers have to learn boating with you.B．Other travellers will help you make a boat.C．Other travellers have similar feelings to yours.6．What’s the author’s suggestion on travelling with friends?A．Don’t be late for the tour bus.B．Always listen to others’ travel ideas.C．Cook food when travelling in developing countries.D．Choose those who have common interests with you.7．Which of the following may the author agree with?A．We can try different ways of travelling.B．Travelling with friends is more interesting than with a tour.C．It is not necessary to get an alarm when travelling alone.D．A terrible tour guide won’t affect the trip much.You can study the English language for years and still not understand a native speaker of English when you meet one. Many language leaners know that native speakers say a lot of things that you can’t find in a dictionary. Well, here’s a secret for you: A lot of British people can’t understand each other either!Across the UK, a number of regions have different dialects—that is, they have their own unique vocabulary and grammatical phrases. There are many different accents in London, because it is not just where a person is born in the UK that decides their accent. Language and accents also vary across social class and level of education. Hence the recent rise of a new accent coined at the end of the 20th century—“Multicultural London English”.Other factors are also important in the invention of new accents and ways of speaking. These include the influence of people from different ethnic backgrounds and different age groups, too.“Yoof culture” is an example. The word “yoof” is a slang spelling of “youth”. Young people are creating their own language, concepts and identity. By using words that their parents don’t understand, children can talk about things that their parents might not approve of. For example, instead of saying something like “That’s good!” or “I understand”, yoof will use a single adjective like “Safe!”, or “Sorted!” Besides, Yoof would use “kind-a-thing,” or “sort-a-thing” to replace “if you understand what I’m saying”. In this way, they are starting to find freedom, independence and self-expression.As learners of English, we may wonder how well we can talk to a native speaker, butshows that 94 percent of the English spoken in the world today is spoken among non-native speakers of the language. In fact, when we think about “international English”, there is no such thing as a native or non-native speaker. The UK no longer owns the English language. 8．What’s the function of Paragraph 1?A．To share a story.B．To make a comparision.C．To show the author’s experience.D．To introduce the topic.9．Which of the following statements about “Multicultural London English” is TRUE?A．It’s now spoken by people around the world.B．It was invented by Londoners in the 1900s.C．It’s a modern accent that crosses educational divides.D．It’s a dialect specific to a particular social class.10．What does “Sorted!” mean in “yoof culture”?A．Watch out.B．I see.C．My pleasure.D．Hurry up. 11．What does the author want to tell us?A．Don’t worry if you cannot understand native speakers.B．Learning English well is very easy.C．Languages are always changing.D．It is important to communicate with a native speaker.Wood stork, which was on the brink of extinction in 1984, has recovered enough in Florida and other Southern states. The American wildlife officials proposed removing the waterfowl (水禽) from the endangered species list.This symbolic species, which is the only stork native to North America, has rebounded (反弹) because dedicated partners in the southeast have worked tirelessly to restore ecosystems that support it. In addition, the wood stork has increased its range in coastal areas. The birds have adapted to new nesting areas, tripling the number of colonies across their range from 29 to 99 in recent years.Credit goes mainly to the wildlife protections provided by the Endangered Species Act(ESA), which can impose restrictions on a variety of activities in areas where such species are, located, such as development, mining and oil drilling. The act saved the wood stork and it helped; preserve and rebuild vital habitats throughout the southeast, which has improvedSpecies Act has saved 99% of the species that have been on the list since 1973, with 100 types of plants and animals delisted because they have recovered or are at least stable.The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said that restoration of the wood stork’s habitat, especially in the Florida Everglades and adjacent Big Cypress National Preserve, led to a, sharp increase in breeding pairs. Those numbers had shrunk to just 5,000 pairs in 1984, whereas there are more than 10,000 pairs today.“The proposed delisting of the wood stork is a significant milestone and a remarkable, achievement of the hard work by federal agencies, state and local governments, tribes, conservation organizations, and private citizens in protecting and restoring our most at-risk species,” Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said.If the wood stork is delisted, officials said it would remain protected by other laws including the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Clean Water Act. A monitoring plan, would be put in place for at least five years to ensure the stork population remains stable. 12．What can be inferred about the wood stork from the text?A．Its population is increasing.B．It has already died out.C．It is widely distributed worldwide.D．It is the most endangered species. 13．What contribute mostly to recovering the population of the wood stork?A．Charity organizations.B．Federal agencies.C．Protections of the ESA．D．Local companies.14．What is Deb Haaland’s attitude to the delisting of the wood stork?A．Negative.B．Doubtful.C．Indifferent.D．Positive. 15．What is the best title of the text?A．Effect of the Big Cypress National Preserve CountsB．Saving of the Endangered Wood Stork ProgressesC．Efforts to Restore the Wildlife Habitat Pay OffD．Protection of American Native Species WorksThe unpredictable nature of disasters is stressful. That’s why having an action plan in place is so important. 16HurricaneWhen a hurricane is approaching, people in its direct path are often all heading in themake plans to go with friends or family. What’s more, it’s very important to pay attention to all government warnings before and during a hurricane.Winter stormsAccording to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, winter storms create a higher risk of car accidents and several health conditions such as heart disease. 18 Besides, remember to dress warmly, prepare for power outages(断供期), and keep an eye out for signs of serious health conditions. 19 Cover as much skin as you can with hats, warm socks, gloves, etc.Flood20 Try to bring some water and food with you. If you live in a one-story home, put mattresses(床垫)on top of a dining room table for extra height in case water rushes inside. But be careful about going inside an attic(阁楼). You may find that you don’t have a way back out.A．It means the traffic on the way out can be extreme.B．Here’s what you should do in specific types of disasters.C．To help minimize your risk, you’re advised to stay indoors.D．If you have to risk going out, remember to stay warm.E．During a flood, it’s best to go to a high floor, ideally near a window.F．You can see if your home has a high flood risk through the flood maps.G．It’s important to ensure that all family members know the plan inside and out.二、完形填空Hardly had I finished my work and left my office building at 9 p. m. on a Saturday whencar making his voice 28 .“Yes, I am.
