ACarol: I started playing the cello（大提琴）when I was about eight or nine. It was great playing the cello because I was in youth orchestras and we went abroad to do tours.

In the painting,a group of young boys are playing a game arm in arm on grass ground in front of a farm house. They are jumping and laughing wildly with great joy. One of the boys is falling down to the ground. They are not even wearing shoes!During my last year of teaching, there was a young woman in her first year of teaching right next door to me and we got to be good friends. She had been an art student before taking up education. Her eyes were drawn immediately to this print when she entered my room. So on my last day of teaching, after the students had left, I took the painting off the wall and walked next door and gave it to her.She was really surprised, but very glad to have it. I was delighted that she likedit and all the students she would have would treasure it as much as I had. We found the perfect place for it on one of her walls and hung it together.

Customers make a small deposit（押金）and get to use the thing for a daily cost, with a fine put in place for every day if they fail to return the product in time. It’s a simple business model, and market data shows that people see sharing as a cheap and convenient way to cut down waste.Zhao Shuping founded the Sharing E Umbrella, an umbrella sharing service, in April. By the end of June, he had already started in 11 major Chinese cities, including Shanghai, Nanjing and Guangzhou. While picking up the umbrellas was simple, as they were made available（可得到的）at bus and subway stations, the return system turned out to be a different matter. “Umbrellas are different from bicycles,” Mr. Zhaotold Chine se news site . “Bikes can be parked anywhere, but with an umbrella you need something to hang it on.”So instead of bothering to return the umbrellas back to a station, a lot of people just took them home, and Sharing E Umbrella has reportedly lost track of most of the 300,000 umbrellas. Considering that borrowing umbrellas requires a 19 yuan deposit, with a fee of 0.50 yuan per half an hour usage, Zhao says that he suffers a loss of 60 yuan per lost umbrella, so the company is now in the red, but he is not ready to stop it just yet. Zhao announces that Sharing E Umbrella still plans to roll out （推出）30 million nationwide by the end of the year.9. What do we know about Sharing E Umbrella?A. It makes people learn to help each other.B. It needs people to make a small deposit first.C. It developed faster in the western countries.D. It produces more waste and causes disorder.10. What problem did Sharing E Umbrella meet after it was founded?A. The company had no money to produce umbrellas.B. Umbrellas are not allowed to hang anywhere.C. Lots of customers didn't give the umbrellas back.D. People refuse to pay deposit for the umbrellas.11. How much did his company lose if an umbrella was lost?A. 0.5 yuan.B. 19 yuan.C. 60 yuan.D.120 yuan.12. We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. Zhao has found a way to get the umbrellas backB. Zhao will continue his umbrella sharing serviceC. Most of Zhao’s companies have been closedD. Sharing E Umbrella is a failure for ZhaoDMore than 135,000 UK drinkers will die from cancer caused by alcohol（酒精）by the year 2035, researchers say. A study by Sheffield University and Cancer Research UK shows that alcohol will cost the NHS (National Health Service)￡53 billion overthe next ten years including ￡2 billion on cancer.Although alcohol is known to cause many types of cancer including breast and throat, most people don’t realize the relation between alcohol and cancer. A survey of 2,100 Britons by the researchers earlier this year found nine in ten did not connect drinking with cancer. The researchers used a computer model to work out the numbers of alcohol-related cancer deaths, hospital admissions（入院）and total costs to NHS over the next 20 years.The study shows that a fifth of men and 1 in 10 women have alcohol every day—many of these are middle-aged and middle class. Researchers are very worried about this group as they believe cancer may be caused by drinking over long periods. The study shows that even if the cost stays as it is, alcohol-related cancer deaths will rise from 6,299 in 2015 to 7,097 in 2034. Alcohol will lead to 891,299 hospital admissions, up from 802,118 in 2015, and 65,005 will be caused by cancer.Earlier this year Chief Medical Officer Dame Sally Davies studied carefully the alcohol guidance（指导）for the first time in thirty years. She told people there was no safe level of drinking and advised them to drink no more than 14 units a week. But researchers say this guidance isn’t enough and want the government to increasea little price per unit of alcohol.13. What can we learn from the text?A. Alcohol will be the main cause of cancer deaths.B. More people will get away from the habit of drinking.C. The computer model can help researchers to cut down costs on cancer.D. Most people are not clear about the relation between alcohol and cancer.14. What is the researchers’ hope for the government?A. To continue to support the study.B. To put up the price of alcohol properly.C. To control alcohol-related cancer deaths.D. To study the alcohol guidance carefully.15. What may be the best title for the text?A. A Recent Study about CancerB. The Cost of the NHS on AlcoholC. The Discovery of the Causes of CancerD. Alcohol-related cancer over the Coming Years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。

2022-2023学年辽宁省大连市高一上学期12月期末英语试题1. As the 2022 FIFA World Cup approaches, it is interesting to look at stars who could make an influence. We have looked at the different teams and chosen four players to watch out for in Qatar. Kylian MbappéMbappé is currently the poster boy of professional football. Aside from incredible club performances, Mbappé has solidified himself as a World Cup performer due to the 2018 World Cup. Here, he was awarded the FIFA World Cup Best Young Player Award and scored an amazing 25-yard strike in the final against Croatia.Cristiano RonaldoThe list of awards and honors that Ronaldo has gained is legendary. Though he is 37 yet still considered one of the best players in the world. At this point in their career, most forwards are on the decline and have regressed physically – but not Ronaldo. Ronaldo is the all-time international leading goal scorer, and you can count on him in Qatar.Lionel MessiWe could not list Cristiano Ronaldo without also including Lionel Messi. He remains a once-in-a-generation talent and has proved himself time and time again as the leading force behind Argentina’s international squad. He is also a major reason why football is the most popular sport in the world. After disappointment in the 2018 World Cup, we can count on Messi to up his game and lead his team in Group C.NeymarNeymar is one of the most exciting and legendary Brazilian footballers since Ronaldinho and Ronaldo. He has proved to be an incredible player at both club and international level and has scored 74 goals in 119 appearances for Brazil. On the international stage, Neymar has competed in many events, including the 2014 and 2018 World Cups, the 2015 Copa America and the Olympics.Who do you think are the players to watch out for? These are only four picks, after all, and there are many more talented stars who will be looking to make their name in Qatar.1. Who won the FIFA World Cup Best Young Player Award in 2018?A．Kylian Mbappé. B．Cristiano Ronaldo.C．Lionel Messi. D．Neymar.2. What does the underlined word “regressed” mean ?A．Looked back. B．Picked up.C．Fell back. D．Caught up.3. Where is the passage probably taken from?A．A textbook. B．A newsletter.C．A diary. D．A novel.2. When Joy Warren’s husband passed away at the age of 50, her confidence took a knock. Meeting new people and joining in again socially was a fearful task. Fortunately, just doors away were friendly neighbors Janet and Michael Porter who knocked on her door and invited her to join them at a local friendship group event organization.And it all started from there, explained Joy, “I’ve never been the type to sit still, so despite the fact I was still in deep sorrow for Graham, I knew I had to get out and socialize again, but it was difficult to know where to start. That knock on the door was the encouragement I needed.”From that first neighborly nudge, Janet and Michael have been there for Joy, inviting her along to take part in regular s ocial events in the organization . She continued: “They made sure I was never alone for too long, and if I really needed them, a gentle reminder would be given that they were always there. I joined them at all sorts of group meetings and events. Eventually, I signed up to the organization as a result of the wonderful new friends.”Michael, who is also the secretary for the local branch, said, “We understood that Joy needed some time and space after losing Graham, but we made sure we were always there for her when she felt ready to join in. The time it takes to feel ready to step out and meet people again is a very personal thing. It can be a matter of weeks for some, or possibly years for others.From coffee mornings and afternoon teas, to lunch clubs and guest talks, the local branches hold regular events and activities throughout the year. Joy can find out what events are running near to her by using the Event Finder, and enjoyed herself with the new friends.1. What happened to Joy when her husband died?A．Her neighbors knocked her down.B．She lost confidence in social activities.C．She recovered with the help of her old friends .D．She joined a local friendship group event soon.2. From Joy’s experience, how does the organization help the needy?A．By persuading them to join it.B．By signing up to it personally.C．By finding out what events are running near.D．By reminding them of the help around gently.3. What do the local branches do to make a difference?A．Hold events annually. B．Have guest talks.C．Use Event Finder. D．Have tea in the mornings.4. Which of the following sayings can best describe the organization?A．No man is an island. B．Still water runs deep.C．Patience is the best treatment . D．Honesty is the best policy.3. September is upon us, which means one thing for parents and children alike: new term time. With our teachers, students, support staff and many other members of the education ecosystem returning to their own schools, many will be excited to engage in person, after months of remote learning. Unfortunately, this won’t apply to everyone.Throughout the summer, No Isolation worked with independent researcher, Henry Peck, to better understand the effect of lockdown on educational and emotional development in school-aged children. We collected responses from 1,005 parents and carers of 1,477 children from primary and secondary school and were sad to find that more than 75% of these children were lonely some or all of the time during the lockdown.We were alarmed to find that, according to our research, about 540,000 people will continue to stay at home, due to mental or physical health concerns in the USA, directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic. For those children that aren’t able to attend classes in person, keeping some for m of connection with their peers is greatly significant. Video calls have been one of the options to protect their educational development and to prevent them from becoming isolated.They are normal during the pandemic, but are not necessarily the answer for those studying from home. When everyone is online in a video call, it can be an acceptable experience. However, if everyone is gathered and a single student is watching through a video call, it can have the opposite effect. Therefore, having an engaging experience over a video conference can be very difficult for some children, making it easy to switch off.If you’re worried about how your child might be reacting, or concerned that a more digital life could be leaving them isolated, the first thing to do is talk with them: meaningful solutions should be developed in partnership with the people they’re aimed at. Now, we should be listening to children and helping to make sure they are heard in these stormy times.1. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A．Learning alone is significant.B．All students will return to school life.C．No student needs remote learning.D．Some students will remain at home.2. How does the author know the problem of new term?A．By investigating. B．By telephoning.C．By e-mailing. D．By interviewing.3. What leads to the bad effects of video calls?A．Everyone is online in a video call.B．Everyone is gathered except one still online .C．Students are busy with a video conference.D．Students have the video switched off.4. What will be the best title of the passage?A．Make school children’s voice heard.B．Help school children with Covid loneliness.C．Support school children’s video conference.D．Connect school children through video calls.4. Our selection of a favorite color is something that tends to appear in childhood. Babies have variable preferences for colors. But the more time children spend in the world, the more they start to develop stronger fondness for certain colors. They are more likely to link bright colors like orange, yellow, purple or pink to positive rather than negative emotions.It is commonly believed that as children enter their teenage years, their color choices take on a darker style. Adolescent girls in the UK, for example, have been found to be attracted to purples and reds, while boys favor greens and browns.These color palettes (调色板) seem to gather as people grow into adulthood. Interestingly, while the majority of adults say they prefer blue colors, they’ll likely also dislike the same co lor too: a dark yellowish brown is identified as least popular.But why do we have favorite colors? Put simply, we have favorite colors because we have favorite things. At least, that’s the cause of ecological valence theory (生态价值论), an idea put forward by Karen Schloss. Her experiments showed that humans put meanings onto colors, mostly drawn from our subjective histories, and so create high personal reasons for likes and dislikes.Scholss’s work on color preferences may also explain blue’s position as suc h a widespread favorite by accident. And most of our experience with the color are likely to be positive, like clear oceans or skies.The environment we live in inspires our color preference in other ways too. Another study Schloss conducted looked at students at University of California-Berkeley and Stanford, showing that the varsity (代表队) colors of a college influenced the colors they picked as favorites. The more a student said they embraced the spirit of the school, the higher that preference rose.1. What colors will children prefer in their teens?A．Bright colors. B．Light colors. C．Darker colors. D．Variable colors.2. What’s the purpose of paragraphs 1 and 2?A．To introduce the topic.B．To make comparisons.C．To attract readers’ attention.D．To inform the recent findings.3. According to Karen Schloss’s experiments, why do people have their favorite colors?A．To adapt to the adulthood.B．To live in variable environment.C．To select them when we were born.D．To put subjective meanings onto them.4. What will probably happen when college students accept the value of the school?A．Have a preference of same colors.B．Choose their varsity colors as favorites.C．Like the color of blue best.D．Create high personal reasons for colors.5. Friendship makes life more enjoyable and enriches one’s everyday experiences. Finding friends can be challenging but can often be achieved by approaching others with common interests. As we move through life, we find that there are many things out of our control. 1 One thing that we can control is who our friends are, and this decision can either make our lives so much richer and beautiful, or more stressful and disappointing. 2Why friends are so important?Having solid friendships is important for two main reasons. First, they make life more enjoyable. We get to share the beautiful aspects of life with people who we love, which can enrich our everyday experiences. 3 Having friends to support us through hard times can make unimaginably difficult situations seem more tolerable.4This might sound silly, but finding friends can be challenging! Through my personal experience, I learned that it was important to enjoy life instead of struggling for excellence all of the time. Friendship comes into existence where two souls have a lot in common and are found close in reading clubs or fitness centers, etc.Is the friendship more one-sided?5 Friends help enrich our lives, but we enrich theirs too! Friendship gets us through the tough times in life, makes things more fun and enjoyable, and all-around makes our lives better. The backbone of any successful friendship is one where both sides put in equal effort and support.6.

During the time when Grandpa had Friday, he started having dementia (痴呆).

ACarol: I started playing the cello（大提琴）when I was about eight or nine. It was great playing the cello because I was in youth orchestras and we went abroad to do tours. But anyway, when I got to university, I stopped playing. Well, there just wasn’t time and there were so many other things to do. Luckily, I took it up after my 25th birthday and joined a band.Daniel: When I was little, I thought I'd end up learning the guitar like my father, but then I decided that I wanted to have my own instrument, so I chose the trumpet （小号）. I’m in the school jazz band and I'd like to be a musician when I grow up, but my dad says it’s difficult to make a living from music. But I don't want to be a lawyer like him.

Customers make a small deposit（押金）and get to use the thing for a daily cost, with a fine put in place for every day if they fail to return the product in time. It’s a simple business model, and market data shows that people see sharing as a cheap and convenient way to cut down waste.Zhao Shuping founded the Sharing E Umbrella, an umbrella sharing service, in April. By the end of June, he had already started in 11 major Chinese cities, including Shanghai, Nanjing and Guangzhou. While picking up the umbrellas was simple, as they were made available（可得到的）at bus and subway stations, the return system turned out to be a different matter. “Umbrellas are different from bicycles,” Mr. Zhaotold Chinese news site . “Bikes can be parked anywhere, but with an umbrella you need s omething to hang it on.”So instead of bothering to return the umbrellas back to a station, a lot of people just took them home, and Sharing E Umbrella has reportedly lost track of most of the 300,000 umbrellas. Considering that borrowing umbrellas requires a 19 yuan deposit, with a fee of 0.50 yuan per half an hour usage, Zhao says that he suffers a loss of 60 yuan per lost umbrella, so the company is now in the red, but he is not ready to stop it just yet. Zhao announces that Sharing E Umbrella still plans to roll out （推出）30 million nationwide by the end of the year.9. What do we know about Sharing E Umbrella?A. It makes people learn to help each other.B. It needs people to make a small deposit first.C. It developed faster in the western countries.D. It produces more waste and causes disorder.10. What problem did Sharing E Umbrella meet after it was founded?A. The company had no money to produce umbrellas.B. Umbrellas are not allowed to hang anywhere.C. Lots of customers didn't give the umbrellas back.D. People refuse to pay deposit for the umbrellas.11. How much did his company lose if an umbrella was lost?A. 0.5 yuan.B. 19 yuan.C. 60 yuan.D.120 yuan.12. We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. Zhao has found a way to get the umbrellas backB. Zhao will continue his umbrella sharing serviceC. Most of Zhao’s companies have been closedD. Sharing E Umbrella is a failure for ZhaoDMore than 135,000 UK drinkers will die from cancer caused by alcohol（酒精）by the year 2035, researchers say. A study by Sheffield University and Cancer Research UK shows that alcohol will cost the NHS (National Health Service)￡53 billion overthe next ten years including ￡2 billion on cancer.Although alcohol is known to cause many types of cancer including breast and throat, most people don’t realize the relation between alcohol and cancer. A survey of 2,100 Britons by the researchers earlier this year found nine in ten did not connect drinking with cancer. The researchers used a computer model to work out the numbers of alcohol-related cancer deaths, hospital admissions（入院）and total costs to NHS over the next 20 years.The study shows that a fifth of men and 1 in 10 women have alcohol every day—many of these are middle-aged and middle class. Researchers are very worried about this group as they believe cancer may be caused by drinking over long periods. The study shows that even if the cost stays as it is, alcohol-related cancer deaths will rise from 6,299 in 2015 to 7,097 in 2034. Alcohol will lead to 891,299 hospital admissions, up from 802,118 in 2015, and 65,005 will be caused by cancer.Earlier this year Chief Medical Officer Dame Sally Davies studied carefully the alcohol guidance（指导）for the first time in thirty years. She told people there was no safe level of drinking and advised them to drink no more than 14 units a week. But researchers say this guidance isn’t enough and want the government to increasea little price per unit of alcohol.13. What can we learn from the text?A. Alcohol will be the main cause of cancer deaths.B. More people will get away from the habit of drinking.C. The computer model can help researchers to cut down costs on cancer.D. Most people are not clear about the relation between alcohol and cancer.14. What is the researchers’ hope for the government?A. To continue to support the study.B. To put up the price of alcohol properly.C. To control alcohol-related cancer deaths.D. To study the alcohol guidance carefully.15. What may be the best title for the text?A.
