浙江省温州中学2022-2023学年高一上学期10月月考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解Almost every child is scared of something, from monsters in the cupboard to dogs in the park. But the fact that such fears are common and normal doesn’t mean they can be taken lightly. Kids experience fears and phobias(恐惧症) much more strongly than adults. And the influence of the fear can be physical as well as psychological(心理的). It can build up so they almost seem scared of everything－a kind of childhood anxiety. Dr. Creswell says: “Your child may always seem to expect the worst to happen and lack confidence in his or her ability to deal with any challenge.” So don’t make the same old mistake of treating them as if they’re silly for being a “scaredy cat”. Handling the fears is essential.Children can be born nervous and, if you have such a baby, you’ll ten d to prevent them from getting worried. So if they fear dogs, you’ll keep them away from dogs, but in fact that can just confirm to the child that dogs are scary. What is worse, keeping your child away from what they fear can turn that feeling into a phobia. Instead, you should encourage them to get in touch with the thing they fear, in a safe and supportive environment. Dr. Andy Field, a researcher of childhood fears, says: “You shouldn’t force, for example, a dog anxious child to go up to a dog. But you can approach it yourself, show them there is nothing to be afraid of, stroke(抚摸) it, and talk about the dog being friendly. Once your child dares to stroke a dog－one that’s good with children, of course－then you should encourage them to carry on until they feel calmer, and reward them for ‘being brave’.”1．Children’s fears are usually taken lightly because __________.A. they will not develop into phobiasB. their influence is psychologicalC. they exist widely in the worldD. they will disappear gradually2．If we fail to help children to overcome fears, they will ___________.A. make the same old mistakeB. overcome them by themselvesC. experience the worst of thingsD. grow up lacking self confidence3．According to Dr. Andy Field if a child is afraid of a cat, parents should __________.A. tell the child not to be afraid of itB. show the child how to approach itC. keep the child away from itD. ask the child to stroke itYou get anxious if there’s no wi-fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. You feel upset if your phone is getting low on power and you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if you’re not there. All these can be called “always on” stress caused by smart phone addiction.For some people, smart phones have liberated them from the nine-to-five work. Flexible working has given them more autonomy (自主权) in their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with their friends and families. For many others though, smartphones have become tyrants in their pockets, never allowing them to turn them off, relax and recharge their batteries.Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much be was ignoring his family and friends in favor of his iPhone. So he developed an app——Moment-——to monitor his usage. The app enables users to see how much time they’re spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are broken. “Moment’s goal is to promote balance in your life,” his website explains. “Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and friends around you.”Dr. Christine Grant, an occupational psychologist at Coventry University, said, “The effects of this ‘always on’ culture are that your mind is never resting, and you’re not giving your body time to recover, so you’re always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make. Physical and mental health can suffer.”And as the number of connected smart phones is increasing, so is the amount of data. This is leading to a sort of decision paralysis (瘫痪) and is creating more stress in the workplace because people have to receive a broader range of data and communications which are often difficult to manage. “It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because they’re controlled by it all and feel they can never escape the office,” said Dr. Christine Grant.4．What’s the first paragraph mainly about?A. The popularity of smart phones.B. The progress of modem technology.C. The signs of “always on” stress.D. The cause of smartphone addiction.5．Kevin Holesh developed Moment to ________.A. research how people use their mobile phonesB. help people control their use of mobile phonesC. make people spend more time with their familyD. increase the fun of using mobile phones6．What’s Dr. Christine Grant’s attitude towards “always on” culture?A. Confused.B. Positive.C. Doubtful.D. Critical.7．According to the last paragraph, a greater amount of data means ________.A. we will become less productiveB. we can make a decision more quicklyC. we will be equipped with more knowledgeD. we can work more effectivelyResearch carried out last year stressed the growing challenge facing employers in terms of managing and supporting the UK’s aging workforce.Figures from the Office for National Statistics have suggested that the number of people aged 65 and over still working has reached 1.19 million—up 25,000 from a year ago. There were also now more people aged 50-74 in work than ever before. However, the overall trend was hiding the fact that 12% people are forced to stop working before reaching state pension age because of ill health or disability.Nearly half a million (436,000) workers who are within five years of state pension age have had to leave work for medical reasons, with an apparent divide between the North (worse) and South (better). Those in the lowest-paid jobs, including cleaners, leisure industry workers and people doing heavy laboring jobs, were twice as likely to stop working before retirement age, because of sickness and disability than managers or professionals.Within this, the needs of the “sandwich generation”— those juggling work with caring for elderly dependents as well as children — needed to be given greater priority (优先权) by employers, a white paper by insurer and health care provider concluded.Its research argued that 66% of managers think the average age of retirement in their organization will increase in the next 5 to 10 years. Yet, 36% reported being unaware of anything their organization did to attract, keep and engage older staff. Fewer than a quarter (23%) of employees said they felt supported by their employer with their responsibilities for caring for a loved one.This was perhaps unsurprising, given that only 28% of managers said their organization had formal policies and practices in place to support these employees, argues health caredistribution director Chris Horlick.8．According to the passage, who is more likely to leave work before retirement age?A. Tom, a physician.B. Jason, a language teacher.C. Henry, a construction worker.D. Bill, a bank manager.9．The present support from the employers can be best described as _________.A. movingB. dissatisfyingC. inspiringD. surprising10．What is the main idea of the passage?A. Old employees are well attended in the UK.B. Aging workforce should be well supported in the UK.C. Employers show responsibilities for supporting their employees.D. UK employers are facing challenges in supporting aging workforce.二、七选五11．If you are hungry, what do you do? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that?①_______ But it never lets you know, because, you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity sets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next?”, “Why can’t I think?”②_______ Why reading but not watching TV? It is because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from childhood. Since it develops other aspects of our life, we have to take help from reading.Once your read a book, you run your eyes through the lines and your mind tries to explain something to you. ③_______ Now this seed is unknowingly used by you to develop new ideas. If it is used many times, the same seed can give you great help to relate a lot of things, which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams!This is nothing but creativity ④_______ Within no time you can start talking with your friends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words.So guys, do give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. ⑤_______ Go and get a book!A. Also this makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary.B. Reading can help you make more friends too.C. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed.D. Why not do some reading while you are hungry.E. Now what you waiting for.F. Hunger of the mind can be actually solved through wide reading.G. Just like your stomach, your mind is also hungry.三、完形填空（20空）If you have ever driven in the mountains on a cool autumn morning, then you knowsmiled and drove, singing a song in my heart.

四川省成都市第七中学（高新校区）2023-2024学年高一上学期10月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解If you’re interested in pushing yourself academically while experiencing college life, our Summer Programs for Pre-College Students (SPP) can be ideal for you. In the programs, you will be able to make friends with fellow students, engage in social activities around the city and on campus, and experience pre-college summer study at one of the world’s top teaching and research universities.Our long-running summer term pre-college offerings include a choice of one-, two-, three-, and six-week programs that prepare you for success in college. With five exciting and challenging pre-college summer programs to choose from, you can earn college credit, discover a new subject area, perform cutting-edge research in university labs, or immerse yourself in hands-on learning.Academic lifeSPP invites you to join other highly motivated teens from 87 countries in our summer programs for high school students — and take the leap into college life and academics, which enables you to take on new academic challenges, explore a variety of interests and consider possible majors. You can take college courses alongside undergraduates either on campus or online. And you can also earn up to eight college credits by conducting in-depth STEM research with individual instructors or as part of a group project. Or, you can immerse yourself in a variety of stimulating noncredit seminars that blend lectures with experiential learning, discussions, and projects.Campus/Residence lifeEmbracing college life is an exciting experience. Whether you live on campus or commute, you’ll get to know the ins and outs of college and city life. If you live on campus, you will stay in the residence hall, sharing a room and participating in dorm activities. There are typically two students per room and safety is our highest priority: residence halls have live-in university staff and 24-hour security. Resident program assistants provide guidance, coordinate and lead social activities, ranging from group activities that include comedy shows to field trips.Your hard work will be combined with social events and fun activities — and you’ll still have time for your own adventures on campus! Email the SPP office at ******************. 1．What does SPP aim to do?A．To help college students to achieve academic success.B．To provide admission guidelines for pre-college students.C．To get high school students well-prepared for college life.D．To encourage students to participate in hands-on learning.2．What are students supposed to do to earn the required credits?A．Carry out STEM research.B．Attend various seminars.C．Finish the courses online.D．Join in experiential learning.3．What can we know about students living on campus?A．They can organize social activities.B．They will have access to a single room.C．They are provided with good security.D．They are advised to direct comedyshows.“I can’t connect with your characters.”I kept hearing the same feedback and was unable to understand why and not sure what to do. I was a character-driven writer. How could I mess up the one thing I was supposed to be good at? I was determined to convince my agent that these characters were real. After all, I knew they were real. My main character Lotus had lived inside me for years. I just needed to clarify her on the page.I wrote and edited for a year, trying to respond to this agent’s feedback. But Lotus’ personality began to disappear. I tried to have her make “better” decisions, wear smarter fashion, and have more friends, as my agent said she acted “immature” and was “isolated”. And when this agent ultimately parted ways with me, I felt like I had failed. Now with time and distance, I realize I tried to fit Lotus into a neurotypical style to please my agent. And as a result, Lotus lost her Lotus-ness.When that agent discouraged me from writing Lotus as autistic(自闭的), he said that would make Lotus seem more “vulnerable(脆弱的)” or an “obvious victim”. I didn’t want Lotus to seem vulnerable. Lotus’ autism is what makes her powerful, I tried to explain. But from a neurotypical perspective, Lotus’ autism could only be seen as a weakness.Unsure of how to convince my agent of the strength and power autistic women hold, Ibegan to write Lotus as “neurotypical”. And I failed miserably. After all, what do I know about being neurotypical? My whole life, autism was my default. Not being diagnosed until 2020, I assumed the way I saw the world was “normal”.My current agent encourages me to write from my neurodivergent(神经多样性的) experience. With this invitation, I revisited Lotus and saw her the way I first wrote her. And when I did, the characters and the entire narrative began to make more sense.Identifying my characters as neurodivergent not only gives me joy as a writer, but it has produced my strongest writing. For so long, I’ve combatted the advice to “write what I know”, in part because I didn’t know what I actually knew. I didn’t know I was neurodivergent. But as I mine the specificity of my lived experience, my writing is stronger. There is a power to our lived experience. It’s not a limitation on our craft, but a swinging open of the gates. 4．How did the author feel when receiving the repeated response from the first agent?A．Confused.B．Convinced.C．Determined.D．Disappointed. 5．Lotus’ personality got lost because ______A．Lotus no longer lived inside the author B．the author attempted to please the agent C．the agent failed to sympathize with Lotus D．Lotus was considered childish and lonely 6．What do we know about the author?A．She regretted parting with the agent.B．She owed her success in life to autism.C．She was aware of her autism in the early years.D．She was empowered by her autistic experience.7．What has the author learned from her own experience?A．Stick to your dream despite discouragement.B．Be true to yourself and write from your heart.C．Giving in to authority is the barrier to success.D．Everyone is born an original instead of a copy.At one time, the inheritance of traditional drama was difficult. People of insight screamed “save drama”. Many celebrities and big names put down their figures and went to the community to carry out public welfare performances of opera, and did everything possible to expand the coverage of drama. In recent years, traditional Chinese culture and art has gained a foothold on short video platforms and attracted a large number of young followersthanks to the explosive growth of the short video industry. Relaxing, emotional and fragmented, these video contents perfectly match the demands of the users. With the application of new technologies such as social communication and immersive experiencing, short video platforms are seeing more users, becoming a shining spot of new Internet media.Recently, Huangmei Opera “ Female Consort Prince ” became a hit on short video platforms as a lot of young users covered the aria (咏叹调) in their own way and showed great artistic talents. The interactive platforms are expanding the charm of the traditional opera among young people.Peking Opera was also well-received on short video platforms thanks to a series of augmented reality (AR) effects. Users love to film clips with a set of virtual facial makeup, headwear and costumes. Statistics indicate that these effects were applied by more than 18 million users, most of whom were young people.In addition to Chinese operas, intangible cultural heritage items, such as embroidery, paper-cutting, printing and dyeing, shadow play works, oiled paper umbrella making, and bamboo weaving are also actively promoted on short video platforms. In a word, short video platforms are becoming an important channel to display China’s intangible cultural heritage.Short video platforms, offering a fun, popular and easy way to explore the traditional art forms, are receiving a lot of positive feedbacks from China’s young generations. The seconds, or minutes long videos, along with unlimited possibilities as well as richness of styles, have produced remarkable achievements in promoting traditional Chinese culture.8．What mainly made the inheritance of traditional drama difficult?A．The slow growth of industry.B．The insufficient coverage of drama.C．The poorly-met demands of the users.D．The severe shortage of the drama actors. 9．What led to the promotion of Peking Opera on short video platform?A．The social communication.B．The set of virtual facial makeup.C．The positive feedbacks from users.D．The application of new technologies. 10．Why are paper-cutting and bamboo weaving mentioned?A．To expand the charm of traditional Chinese culture.B．To prove traditional art forms are actively promoted.C．To show the current situation of these cultural heritage.D．To offer new channels to display China’s cultural heritage.11．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．The Bright Future of Huangmei Opera.B．The Explosive Growth of the Short Video Industry.C．The Simple Way to Explore the Traditional Art Form.D．The Creative Combination of Culture and Technologies.Several years ago, Jeremy Clarkson, presenter of the famous BBC television programme “Top Gear” discovered that one of his guests was half German and half Irish. Immediately, he said: “That's quite a strange combination. It's like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”.This joke played on stereotypes (刻板印象) of the Germans as efficient and the Irish as lazy. Many people could understandably be offended by these kinds of assertions (断言).We do not know every Irish person, so how can we then conclude that every Irish person is lazy?I recently read on a website that Irish business people were described as being 'generally rather casual' and more outwardly friendly than many European counties'. German business people, on the other hand, are considered to be very direct and according to the website, they do not need a personal relationship in order to do business. Once you hear advice like this,it becomes easier to understand where jokes like the one in the first paragraph come from.So why do some people disapprove of the kind of stereotypes as seen in Clarkson's joke, but not baring an eyelid (眨眼) when it comes to generalizations. What is the difference between the two?By definition, a stereotype is a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing. A cultural characteristic, on the other hand, is a pattern of behaviour that is typical of a certain group.So what does this really mean? Stereotype are simply overstated assumptions about groups of people. Imagine if a tourist visited a small town in Switzerland and saw a number of locals playing the alphorn instrument, and then claimed that Swiss people can play the alphorn. This would be a stereotype! This is an overstated image of the Swiss which is based on one tourist's experience.If however, this tourist were to say that the Swiss are very punctual, this could be seen as a cultural characteristic. This is because it is a pattern of behaviour which is very typical in Switzerland: from their transport system to their business meetings in this way, some people argue that generalizing another culture is not just useful. but important. Politicians alwayshave to be mindful of the cultural characteristics of different countries. By becoming aware of different cultural characteristics,they can avoid causing offence (冒犯) in those cultures.However, others argue that generalizing cultures will always lead to offensive stereotypes. They argue that the best thing we can do is to stop generalizing cultures and start treating people as individuals.All this raises important questions: can making generalizations about groups of people be a positive thing?

But they could be contributing to a culture of toxic(有毒的) positivity. For those new to this term, it might sound like an oxymoron(矛盾修辞法). How can positivity be toxic? Isn’t it supposed to be helpful, or “positive”, as the name suggests? 16“Toxic positivity is when somebody avoids all negative thoughts or feelings, pretending everything is going well when it is not,” explains Melissa Dowd, a therapist at PlushCare, a virtual health platform for primary care and mental health services.Whitney Goodman, the author of Toxic Positivity describes toxic positivity as the “endless pressure to be happy and positive, no matter what the circumstances are.” 17 It’s also something we can cause other people to experience.Expressing toxic positivity to others may look like offering them a simple solution to a complicated problem that we know nothing about, or not allowing people around you to appropriately express negative emotions.Toxic positivity causes us to suppress our emotions, which can make them worse.18 “Although it can be helpful to look on the bright side when facing challenges,” Dowd says, “not coping with negative feelings in a healthy way in the moment can lead to those feelings resurfacing later in different areas of your life or as a form of anxiety.” 19 “If I feel like you’re going to dismiss me, I’m going to stop sharing how I’m feeling,” Goodman adds.20 If you’re using toxic positivity against yourself, Goodman suggests remembering it’s OK if you’re upset about something. It’s valid if something annoys you. “Allow ourselves and other people to share when they’re going through a difficult time,” she says. Dowd adds that it’s essential that “we all learn to cope with and process our emotions in a healthy way as opposed to avoiding how we feel” as life’s stressors continue to rise. For example, instead of simply saying “Just think positively,” we’d better say “Sometimes bad things happen. How can I help?”A．Are there ways to avoid toxic positivity?B．Toxic positivity also disrupts connection.C．It can harm people who are going through difficult times.D．This can come up in different situations when we are dealing with pressure.E．They become more intense and can cause long-lasting health concerns in the future.F．Experts say constant forced positivity can lead to the opposite, and have a negative effect.G．This is what we may bring on to ourselves by not allowing negative thoughts and feelings.三、完形填空I am 39 I made it through.

After dinner and settling in for the night, guests will be encouraged to count the numbered sheep as they walk in the small field and slowly fall asleep under the stars. They will have a yoga class and a breakfast of local food during daylight hours. Anyone will have the chance to try it when it opens in 2023.“The power of a good night’s sleep can’t be ignored (忽视). It’s clear that the nation needs it now more than ever,” said Dr. Dennis Schmoltzi, CEO at Emma. Sleep. “Counting sheep is more than an old story. It’s a tested method that Brits are relying on to help them fall asleep. They’re eager for a peaceful environment when they’re trying to relax, which is important for sleep quality.”The company did a survey of 2,000 adults and found 44% of the adults had difficulty sleeping. To improve the situation, some adults have used special ways, like counting sheep to get a good night’s sleep. The study, carried out by OnePoll, shows that some factors (因素) improve adults’ sleep well, including fresh air and the sound of nature.Theresa Schnorbach, a sleep scientist at Emma Sleep, said, “People can use a pleasant and relaxing method to help them sleep, like counting sheep as they jump over a fence. The aim is to control worrying thoughts. I think this not only reduces the time it takes to fall asleep but also improves sleep quality.”8．What can we know about the “Shleep Sanctuary” in Paragraph 2?A．It’s a popular British hotel.B．It’s a center for morning yoga lessons.C．It offers a chance to count real sheep.D．It provides many treatments for sleep problems.9．What does the author imply about counting sheep in Paragraph 3?A．It’s peaceful.B．It’s boring.C．It’s relaxing.D．It’s useful.10．What is one of the ways to improve the sleep according to the study?A．Yoga class.B．Local food.C．Outdoor activities.D．Favorite music. 11．What is Theresa Schnorbach’s attitude towards counting sheep?A．Supportive.B．Worrying.C．Unclear.D．Doubtful.Researchers have developed a new soft robot with three behaviours at the same time: rolling (翻滚) forward, turning like a record and following a path that goes around a central point. The equipment, which operates without human or computer control, is useful for developing soft robots that can be used to map unknown environments. The new soft robots are made of something like a ribbon (缎带) and then joined together at the end to form a ring.When the robots are placed on a surface that is at least 55 degrees Celsius, which is hotter than the surrounding air, one part of the ribbon touching the surface becomes smaller, while one part in the air does not. This results in a rolling movement: the warmer the surface, the faster the robot rolls. “The ribbon rolls on its horizontal axis (横轴), giving the ring forward strength.” says Jie Yin, a professor of mechanical engineering.The robot also turns along its central axis. And as it moves forward it travels in a path around a central point, basically moving in a large circle. However, if the robot meets a boundary (障碍), like the wall of a box, it will travel along the boundary.The twisted ring robots are examples of equipment whose behaviour is controlled by physical intelligence, meaning their actions are determined by their structural design and the materials they are made of, rather than being directed by a computer or human.“Soft robotics is still a relatively new field.” Yin says. “Finding new ways to control the movement of soft robots in a repeatable and engineered way moves the field forward. And advancing our understanding of what is possible is exciting.”12．What makes the robot roll faster?A．The ribbon.B．The central axis.C．The shape and material.D．The surface temperature.13．How does the author introduce the new soft robots?A．By explaining the working ways.B．By listing experts’ opinions.C．By making some comparisons.D．By offering reasons and results.14．Why can the robot keep travelling when meeting a boundary?A．It is controlled by computer.B．It has special equipment.C．It has its own intelligence.D．It is designed by human.15．What is the best title for the text?A．Ribbons and Their Rolling B．The New Soft RobotsC．Three Creative Movements D．Twisted Rings and the AxisDo you want to start a club at your high school? If your school doesn’t offer a particular club that you’re interested in, starting your own is a great way! You will meet new people there.16Before you start your own club, make sure that you understand how high school clubs are run.Clubs are a great way for students to participate in activities they enjoy, learn new skills, and meet new people. High school clubs can cover many topics. 17Once you have your idea, make sure your school doesn't already have a similar club. 18 Once you know what you want, it's time to get started. Figure out what the purpose of the club is, what activities you want members to take part in, and what goals you have for the club. By figuring this out, you will be able to write a proposal. 19 This may be as simple as filling out a form, or it may require discussing the club with teachers or school staff.20 Try to create a poster a week or two before the first meeting. Try to make it eye-catching and interesting to look at. For a ski club, include a color photo of a person skiing down a mountain and a heading like “Love to ski? Join Jefferson High School’s new ski club!”. It will catch students’ interest and attract them to attend the first meeting.A．After that, spread the news.B．You can do this by asking your teachers.C．Club meetings are usually held after school.D．Don’t try to do too much at your first meeting.E．You will also spend time doing something you enjoy.F．Most high schools require clubs to go through a process to get approved.G．They can be from math to skiing to protecting the environment and more.二、完形填空What’s your “cheer up” song?
