I was driving with my friend on the way home after a trip to Wal-Mart and it was completely unexpected. My friend and I began the night by going out to eat and after that we had nothing to do, so we went to Wal-Mart. As we were leaving the parking-lot, we encountered a stop sign and that was where the collision(碰撞)happened.As we approached the sign, I didn’t see the green truck coming from the left, which was pulling out of the gas station. So all of a sudden, we felt the crash and heard the “boom”. We had hit the back tyre of the truck. My friend and I looked at each other, shocked; neither of us knew what to do.After we realized what had just happened, the truck we hit started to drive over to the parking lot so we followed. We parked next to the truck and got out of the car. To make the situation worse, it was raining hard, so we were wet all over. We were about to walk over to the driver when he started shouting at us and I felt so bad but I didn’t know what to say to him; I felt like crying.When I got home, I was expecting to be yelled at or even get my car away, but it was just the opposite. My parents just talked to me calmly and said that they were so glad I was okay and that it was not a big accident. They told me to be more careful next time and this was something to learn from. This experience has helped me realize that they are right and I will be more cautious next time, especially with others in my car.56.

Any trip to Sydney is an adventure and with some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, this city has so much to offer. Sydney is so large an area that choosing a hotel is something you need to do very carefully. Public transport is good, but it can be slow and being close to where you want to be is probably the most important factor.The first and most obvious choice is hotels around Circular Quay. Circular Quay is the heart of the city and one of the major interchanges where trains, buses and ferries meet. It’s also where Sydney’s two most famous landmarks are located—Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbor Bridge. This area is active and offers truly some of the best views you will ever get from a hotel room.Hotels further in the city are much more suited to business travelers and they are usually less expensive. Darling Harbor is a great choice as it mixes a great view with being right in the centre of the city. Darling Harbor has hundreds of pubs, clubs and restaurants along the water’s edge.If you don’t feel like dealing with the hustle and bustle of the city and are looking for something a bit quieter, why not head out to the Northern Beaches. It’s only a short ferry ride over to Manly where you can find two major hotels on the beach front with a number of smaller boutiques (精品店).61.What made Sydney famous as a lively and modern city in the world?A.Its traditional cultureB. Its beaches and hotelsC. The traffic systemD. The 2000 Olympics62. We may know from the passage that .A. traveling to Sydney is dangerousB. Sydney’s public transport is fastC. hotels in Manly are cheapest in Sydney.D. you can enjoy good views in Circular Quay.63. If you want to live in a quiet hotel and buy some fashionable clothes or expensive gifts, you should choose one in .A. Circular QuayB. Darling HarborC. ManlyD. Sydney Harbor Bridge64. The underlined part “hustle and bustle” in the last paragraph may refer to .A. hot climateB. serious pollution.C. busy and noisy activityD. slow-moving traffic.65. The passage is mainly to .A. advertise the hotels in SydneyB. tell us how to choose a suitable hotel in SydneyC. show that Sydney is truly a heaven on earthD. describe Sydney after the 2000 OlympicsCNew York has long been known as the city that never sleeps, but the business people in Tokyo get less time in bed than those in New York, and also in Paris, Stockholm and Shanghai.According to a survey of five cities, the business people in Tokyo during weekdays sleep just under 6 hour on average. The business people in Shanghai sleep the longest, seven hours and 28 minutes. Those in New York sleep six hours and 35 minutes, the second shortest after Tokyo.“I think business people in Tokyo may just be too busy,” said a spokeswoman of the survey. Many Japanese business people are forced into long days by hours of overtime followed by afterhours(业余时间)drinking sessions(聚会)and then a long commute(上下班交通)home, although the survey found that commutes in New York were about equally long. Tokyo trains in both mornings and evenings are full of sleepy commuters. Some even manage to nap standing up as they hold on to overhead rails.“In Shanghai, people simply seem to go to sleep earlier. Everyone in the five cities of the survey gets up around the same time in the mornings, between 6:30 and 7:00,”said the spokeswoman. “In Tokyo, people seem to do things after they get home as well, like playing computer games. They don’t sleep until after midnight.”Not surprisingly, when asked what was the most important in their lives, Japanese gave “sleep” the top ranking—the same as their Parisian peers, who nevertheless got nearly seven hours of sleep on weekdays. By contrast, both New Yorkers and Shanghai residents said “time with their family” came first.66. According to the survey, the business people in Shanghai sleep about .A. 5 hoursB. 6.5 hoursC. 7.5 hoursD. 8 hours67. The business people spend about the same time on the road in .A. Tokyo and ShanghaiB. Paris and StockholmC. Paris and ShanghaiD. Tokyo and New York68. What do business people from the five cities have in common?A. They are all too busyB. They live a life of leisureC. They get up around the same timeD. They spend a long time on commute69. One reason why people in Tokyo lack sleep is that .A. they go to bed too lateB. they usually get up too earlyC. they often drink and danceD. they like working on computers70. In which column of a newspaper could we probably find this passage?A. TravelB. PeopleC. SportsD. EducationPART FOUR WRITING (45 marks)SECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.Studies show that eating dinner together at least 3 or 4 times a week benefits families in many ways.First of all, eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships. Children receive better grades at school and are better adjusted as teens and adults, and the entire family enjoys a healthier diet. For many families, eating dinner together proves to be a good and effective way to reduce the risk of youth rates of addiction and depression, and helps to keep children healthy. It is also a great time to share the events of the day and discuss news and ideas.During dinner time, parents have a good opportunity to find out more about their children. When parents have all information they can better direct their kids toward positive activities and behavior in life and they will also be more able to help their children stay away from alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs.However, family researchers say that the benefits of family dinners can by no means be considered automatic. Parents can sit down to dinner with their kids every day and achieve nothing. No family dinner can help if there is too much arguing going on, if there is no meaningful conversation or, even worse, if there is just plain silence during the meal.Family dinners are a great way for parents to set and discuss certain rules and be good role models to their children. The benefits of eating together last much longer than many people might think, especially if your family mealtime becomes a regular activity.Title: 71. ______I. 72. ______:●Achieve open communication●Build 73. ______ relationships among families●Provide parents 74. ______ to know about their children●Help kids 75. ______ alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs●A time to be good 76. ______ to childrenII.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.Working after school and at the weekend can be a very positive experience for a high school student. The only negative aspect I wonder is whether the job seriously affects the housework at home or grades at school. If it’s possible to work and still keep up with housework and keep the grades up, I don’t see any downside.The obvious advantage of an after-school job is the extra money that it provides. A student can buy things that she or he couldn’t afford before. More than this, it is possible to learn how to deal with money and learn the value of money by earning it yourself. Besides, an after-school job can develop a sense of responsibility in a kid. You may receive no punishment for being a little careless with your housework at home; however, when someone is paying you to do something, you’d better do a good job.As a kid, I did babysitting and delivered newspapers. I learned to be responsible and to do a good job for the pay. In high school, I went to work for a shoe repair shop and polished shoes there. I made some mistakes but ended up being pretty good at my job. I’ve learned that it doesn’t matter if your job is modest or high level. If you take it seriously and do a good job, there is still a great sense of accomplishment.81. Who does the writer advise to take an after-school job?

甘肃省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案)学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________一、阅读理解In the course of a lifetime, people will experience regrets both large and small. These regrets can lead to motivation for personal growth or they can take you downa pathway to depression and self-punishment. 1 Here are some useful tips.2 Evaluate the situation and try to look for any lessons that you can learn about yourself. You may find out that even a situation that you regretted may have helped you in other areas or teach you to avoid future wrong behavior. This can help you to remove some of the negative emotions.Apologize for mistakes. You may find it helpful to apologize to people who you may have hurt. An apology can be particularly important if your regrets are centered on conflicts in relationships that have caused emotional suffering. This doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re going to accept your apology. 3 Try to forgive yourself. There are somethings that you are not able to make right or change from your past. In these cases, it’s important to learn how to forgive yourself. You need to realize that we all have regrets and accept that what’s done is done. Never take all of the guilt and blame on yourself. 4 Take steps to do better in the future rather than look back.Consider seeking help. If you find yourself stuck in a repeating cycle of self-blame and negative thinking, you may need to reach out to a mental health professional for support. 5 Listening to their experiences can expand your view beyond the present moment.A.Learn from your regret.B.Ask yourself some questions.C.How regrets are dealt with counts a lot.D.Instead, treat yourself as you would treat a friend.E.You can also talk to other people with similar regrets.F.But it can help to ease the tension and relieve your stress.G.You should give yourself time to recover from a past regret.Michael J. Fox was at the height of his career when he developed Parkinson’s disease(帕金森病) in 1991. Since then, he has been fighting the disease and has not lost his love for life.After his diagnosis(诊断), Michael concealed his illness for several years in order not to risk his career as an actor. His diagnosis didn’t become public until 1999. To this day, he has done his best not to be influenced by his illness as much as possible and has worked both in front of the camera and as a voice actor. He has found the right way to deal with Parkinson’s disease for him: Humor.In an interview in March 2017, he joked about moments in his everyday life where he is controlled by his illness. “The thing that makes it funny to me is when I think about someone else watching all this and thinking, ‘Poor Michael can’t even get the coffee — it’s so sad!’”, explains the 59-year-old.Since his diagnosis became public, he has founded the Michael Organization for Parkinson’s Research. By the end of 2018, 800 million US dollars had already been collected.6.What does the underlined word “concealed” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Hid. B.Feared. C.Refused to treat. D.Paid no attention to.7.Which of the following is right?A.His diagnosis become public in 1991.B.He doesn’t like joking about moments in his everyday life.C.He has done his best not to be influenced by his illness as much as possible. D.Michael fell into a depression forever after the illness.8.Which of the following can best describe Michael?A.Tough and optimistic. B.Patient and honest.C.Confident and easy-going. D.Dependent and open-minded.9.What did Michael do for Parkinson’s disease?A.He provided money for those with it. B.He called on people to face it bravely. C.He established a center to treat people with it. D.He tried to raise money tosupport research on it.“What part of the States(州)do you come from?”“I’m not American. I’m Canadian.”This is a mistake that Europeans often make. Many Americans, too, admit that it takes them a while to tell if it’s an American talking or a Canadian. This upsets some Canadians, because they want people to recognize them as Canadians. They want everyone to know that Canada is an independent nation with its own special character. American English was probably brought to Canada by the Loyalists(忠于北方者)who fled there during the Revolutionary War(1776~1783), for even as late as 1813. 80% of all British Canadians had come from the USA.From the very first, Canada was a country with two languages, neither of which influenced the other very much, because the French and British spoke to each other so little. Canadian English has always remained very like American English, and the influence of the Indian and Inuit languages was no greater than the influence of French. But there are some important words that have found their way via(通过)Canadian dictionaries into British dictionaries.10.The sentence“I’m not American, I’m Canadian. ” suggests ________. A.Canada is a beautiful countryB.Canadian English is not quite different from American EnglishC.Canadians think Canada is a more developed countryD.Canadians think that their country is independent11.It isn’t easy for Europeans even for Americans to tell ________ from ________. A.American English; British EnglishB.Canadian English; American EnglishC.Canadian English; British EnglishD.British English; Scottish English12.The two languages spoken in Canada refer to ________.A.British English and American EnglishB.English and LatinC.French and EnglishD.Canadian English and American English13.Generally speaking, Canadian English is the same as American English because ________.A.Canada is connected with the USAB.most of the British Canadians had come from the USAC.the population of Canada is smaller than that of the USAD.Canadians want to follow Americans14.With the help of ________, some Canadian new words come into British English. A.the Revolutionary WarB.the LoyalistsC.Indian languageD.Canadian dictionariesLaughter is part of the human language around the world. Unlike English or French, we don’t have to learn to speak it, and we’re born with the ability to laugh. Studies show that the first laughter appears at about 3.5 to 4 months of age, long before we’re able to speak.As the saying goes, “Laughter is the best medicine.” Best of all, this priceless medicine is fun, free and easy to use. Nothing works faster to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. It helps relax your whole body leaving your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes. Laughter also helps you fight against diseases. It can improve the function of blood vessels (血管) and increases blood flow, which can help protect you against a heart attack.And the good feeling you get when you laugh remains with you even a few minutes later. It helps you keep a positive, optimistic attitude toward difficult situations, disappointments and losses. Laughter gives you the strength to find new sources of meaning and hope. Even in the most difficult days, a laugh or even simply a smile can go a long way toward making you feel better.Shared laughter is one of the most effective tools for keeping relationshipsfresh and exciting. And it helps build strong and lasting relationships, and it unites people during difficult times. So it’s necessary to create opportunities to laugh with others. More often, people are very happy to share something funny because it gives them an opportunity to laugh again. When you hear laughter, find it out and ask. “What’s funny?” And you can make time for fun activities such as bowling, golfing or karaoke.In short, the ability to laugh and have fun not only makes life more enjoyable but also helps you solve problems, connect with others, and be more creative. The more laughter there is, the more benefits you’ll receive.15.The author develops the second paragraph mainly by ________.A.telling storiesB.providing examplesC.discussing questionsD.showing research findings16.Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ________.A.the difficult times in one’s lifeB.the benefits of laughter to our mindC.the physical health benefits of laughterD.different ways to feel better about oneself17.Why does the author suggest laughing with others?A.It strengthens the relationships between people.B.It makes people look much younger.C.It helps treat many kinds of diseases.D.It creates opportunities to be friendly.18.What would be the best title for the text?A.Man — the Only Creature That LaughsB.Laughing Makes Us YoungerC.Different Types of LaughterD.Why Should We Laugh?二、七选五Have you ever considered a simple and environmentally friendly lifestyle in the future? If your answer is yes, you can choose to live in a tiny house. In fact, besidesthe better cost effect of owning and living in a tiny house, there are some other benefits of them. 19 Here are some benefits of living in a tiny house.20 The materials that made your tiny house can be made from recycled materials, not to mention the solar boards on the roof and the rain pipes on the side of the house.

I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word “congratulations. ”I don’t remember e ver smiling so wide.Then I looked at my financial(财政的)package.The cost of Dream School’s tuition(学费), room and board was around $ 40,000- an impossible sum! How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren’t as famous as my first choice.In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer. My parents understood how I felt. They toldme that even though it would be a financial problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, I wasn’t sure what to do.One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring. Considering my parents’ financial difficulties, I decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food, listen quietly. But I surprised myself.At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus (校园)including guest lectures and social gatherings. He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.56. How did the author feel when he started to read the letter?A. He was lost in his dream.B. He was full of joyC. He was worried about the money.D.

For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, andgood manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public trans port after 10 p. m. I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.60. The writer doesn’t like London because she ______.A. has lived there for seventeen yearsB. prefers to live in an old-fashioned houseC. is not used to the life there nowD. has to be polite to everyone she meets there61. Where do people usually meet their friends in England?A. In a cafe.B. In a pub.C. In a restaurant.D. In a nightclub.62.

These are the questions I want to discuss with you today.First, let’s talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. No matter what your major may be, you can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures. Lectures are usually in very large rooms because some courses such as introduction to sociology or economics often have as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it’s very important for you to take notes on what the professor says because the information a lecture is often different from the information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn’t enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have a couple of hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting usually with fewer than thirty students where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the homework. In large universities, graduate students, called teaching assistants, usually direct discussion sections.If your major is chemistry, or physics, or another science, you’ll also have tospend several hours a week in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom than non science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or history usually have to read and write more than science majors do.63. The main purpose of this text is .A. to persuade the students to attend lecturesB. to encourage the students to take part in discussionsC. to advise the students to choose proper majorsD. to help the students to learn about university life.64. We can learn from the passage that university professors .A. spend about 5 hours on lectures each weekB. must join the students in the discussion sectionsC. require the students to read beyond the textbooksD. prefer to use textbooks in their lectures65. A discussion section does NOT include .A. talking over what the students have read about the coursesB. working under the guidance of university professorsC. discussing the problems related to the students’ homeworkD. raising questions about what a professor has said in a lecture66. According to the author, science majors .A. read and write less than non science majorsB. have to work harder than non science majorsC. spend less time on their studies than non science majorsD. consider experiments more important than discussionsDPlease look through the reviews as follows for movies that are showing at the moment.
