2021学年湖北省高一（下）期中英语试卷（A卷）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分25.0分）第一节（共3小题；每小题2.5分，满分25.0分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．1. During World War II, British ships were always watching for German submarines calledU﹣boats． The ship Ben Lomond had left Cape Town, South Africa, with 55sailors, including a young man named Poon Lim．On November 23, 1942, the Ben Lomond was attacked by a U﹣boat． Within minutesthe boat was sinking． Poon Lim grabbed a life jacket and leaped over the side． He swam rapidly away from the ship in case it exploded． Sure enough, it let out a large ________and sank beneath the waves． For two hours Poon Lim struggled in the water． Later hesaw a life raft（救生艇） that was empty, swam to it, and climbed aboard． He found afew supplies enough for about a month．Day after day Poon Lim searched the horizon for ships． Twice he leaped up to shout and wave when he saw help coming． Once he saw a ship． It passed him． At a later time, he saw a United States Navy plane． It flew low over the raft but then disappeared． Still latera U﹣boat spotted him but somehow left him alone．Poon Lim knew he needed to stay strong． He couldn't get much exercise on an eight﹣foot﹣square raft, but he could swim． A couple of times a day, he circled the raft, always watching for sharks． Soon his food and water ran low． He knew that drinking seawater would make him sick, so he tore off his life jacket and set it out to catch rainwater．Then he took apart his flashlight and used a wire inside to make a fishhook． For months Poon Lim drifted, catching fish and sometimes birds． One time he even caught ashark． Finally, after 130 days, he noticed that the color of the water was changing． Two days later, on his 133rd day, three sailors in a small sailboat picked him up and took him to Belem, a city on the coast of Brazil． Poon Lim had crossed the Atlantic Ocean．No one ever had survived longer on a raft at sea． Poon Lim received manyhonors, including Britain's highest award． A booklet of his survival methods was put into every British life raft．（1）What does the underlined word "boom" in paragraph 2 mean？________A. a sudden increaseB. a life raftC. a loud deep soundD. a giant wave．（2）Why did Poon Lim circle around his raft several times every day？________A. He did it just for fun．B. He needed to watch for sharks．C. He wanted to work out．D. He intended to catch some fish．．（3）What can we infer about Poon Lim？________A. He is smart and tough．B. He is determined and modest．C. He is lucky and gentle．D. He is strong and humorous．2. Did you know that birthdays were not always celebrated? The idea seems to have started in Egypt more than 5, 000 years ago． In those times only members of royal families celebrated their birthdays． The Greeks and Romans adopted the Egyptian ideas．For a while the Greeks borrowed the idea of birthday cakes from the Persians． The cake was made to honor Artemis, the moon goddess． Candles may have been used to stand for the shining of the moon． Because the moon becomes full about once everymonth, Artemis also had a birthday every month!Later, just before the start of the first century A．D, the Romans started making a national holiday out of the birthdays of famous leaders． There might be a parade, a special sporting event, and a banquet in honor of the leader． Over the next threecenturies, birthday celebrations became less popular． In many places celebrations were held in honor of people at the time of their death instead．Children's birthday parties probably didn't become important until the 1200s in Germany． The birthday boy or girl would wake up to a cake topped with candles﹣one for each year plus one as the "light of life"． However, the cake wasn't for breakfast． The candles were kept going （and were changed as they burned out） until afterdinner． Special gifts were part of the birthday celebration, and the boy or girl could select the foods for the day． When it came time to blow out the candles, the birthday child made a wish and had to blow out all the candles at once． The wish had to be kept a secret．We recognize most of the German customs today． One of them, however, did not last． It was the Birthday Man who brought extra gifts．You might think the song we sing at birthday parties is based on some old folk song． The real story is that two Kentucky sisters wrote the tune and a set of words in 1893． Their song, originally Good Morning to All, had become Happy Birthday to You by 1924, and it was used in Broadway shows and movies．（1）What can we know from paragraph 1&2？________A.Human beings have celebrated birthdays since they came into being．B.In ancient Egypt， common people didn't celebrate their birthdays．C.The Greeks were the first to come up with the idea of birthday cakes．D.The first birthday in history was celebrated for the moon goddess．．（2）If a 7﹣year﹣old German boy celebrated his birthday in the 1200s， what was most likely to happen？________A.He had a birthday cake topped with 7 candles．B.He told his birthday wish to his elder sister．C.He enjoyed the cake with his friends at 8：00 am．D.He prepared some extra presents for the celebration．．（3）What is the passage mainly about？________A.The significance of birthday celebrations．B.The development of birthday celebrations．C.Different birthday celebrations in different countries．D.A comparison between past and present birthday celebrations．3. Since humans first walked the earth, we have relied on plants for our survival． They provide us with food, shelter, medicine and even the oxygen we breathe． Now, a group of scientists is wondering if they can protect us from climate change as well．Researchers in San Diego launched a new initiative to improve the ability of plants to suck carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and store it deep in the soil． One of the group's goals is to find a way to help plants better keep the carbon they absorb from the atmosphere securely locked away in the soil．All plants make a substance called suberin（软木脂） that protects their roots．You are likely familiar with it even if you don't know it． It's the material that makes up the skin of a potato．The unique properties of suberin help plants in many ways． It makes them more tolerant of drought and, at the same time, better able to survive floods． It also serves as protection against disease． But perhaps most importantly for the group's goals, suberin is a substance which is very difficult for bacteria and fungi to break down． Further research in the lab revealed that suberin is one of the most stable forms of carbon in the soil． That means once carbon from the atmosphere makes it into the ground in the form of suberin, it will stay put．Armed with this information, one of the group's first goals is to breed a variety of plants that can produce more suberin than they currently do． "We want them to make bigger and deeper roots with more suberin, " said Joanne Chory, a plant biologist who is leading the initiative． Of course, to have an impact on the global carbon cycle, they will have to exist on an enormous scale． In the longer term, the group plans to partner with governments around the world to distribute seeds to farmers． "Five percent of the world's crop land is what we want to change over, " Chory said． It's an enormous goal, and one that even Chory admits sounds a bit crazy． But she also believes that the group's work is a step toward creating a more sustainable planet．（1）According to researchers in San Diego， how can suberin benefit human beings？________A.It can make up the skin of a potato．B.It can provide human beings with oxygen．C.It can take in and keep carbon dioxide in the ground．D.It can help human beings fight against droughts and floods．．（2）Which of the following does Joanne Chory probably agree with？________A.A variety of plants can produce more suberin than they used to．B.The bigger and deeper roots a plant has， the less suberin it has．C.Small amounts of suberin can influence the global carbon cycle．D.The goal to change crop land with suberin is hard but meaningful．．（3）Which of the following can be the best title of the passage？________A.Relying on plants to survive．B.Fighting climate change with super plants．C.Suberin ﹣﹣ a new magical substance．D.Plants ﹣﹣ more than food and medicine．．（4）What does the passage mainly intend to do？________A. To entertainB. To argueC. To informD. To instruct．第二节（共1小题；每小题10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．选项中有两项为多余选项．Earth's Growing PopulationHow fast has the world's population grown？ In 1800 about 860 million people lived in the world． During the next 100 years， the population doubled to nearly 1.7 billion． By 2012，the total passed 7 billion．（1）_______Causes of Population GrowthMany factors（因素） cause populations to increase．（2）_______Another major cause of population growth is the global birthrate． During the past 60 years， although the world's human birthrate has been decreasing slowly，the global birthrate is still higher than the global death rate． This means that at any given time， such as a day or a year， more births than deaths occur． This results in population growth．（3）_______When human populations grow， the places the people habitats can become crowded． In many parts of the world， cities， towns， and villages have grown and expanded beyond a comfortable capacity．（4）_______For example， diseases spread quickly in crowdedenvironments． Sometimes there is not enough work for everyone， and many households live in ongoing poverty． Where many people share tight living spaces， crime can be a serious problem and pollution can increase．Influence on the EnvironmentOn a global scale， rapid population growth can harm the environment．（5）_______ People need fuel for their cars and power for their homes． Miners drill and dig into the earth in search of more energy resources． Forests are cut down to make farms for growing crops to feed hungry populations． Factory workers build cars， computers， and electrical appliances to make people's life more convenient．For another， some factories dump chemicals into waterways and discharge poisonous smoke into the air． Over time， chemical wastes have polluted Earth's water andatmosphere， which seriously threatens the whole ecosystem．A． Serious problems can arise as a result of an ever﹣increasing population．B． So why has it grown so quickly and what effect has it on the world？C． For one thing， more people are sharing the same amount of space．D． Population ChallengesE． One is a falling death rate．F． Crowded habitatsG．So how many people will there be in 2050？第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．Vera Bryan, 12, gently touched her coach and said, "I want to have a try．" One of her teammates had not turned up on time, and Vera wanted to（1）_______． Her coach looked down at her． She had been practising dives（跳水）, but could she really stand up to the（2）_______ ?

James，I'm more than glad to receive your email________Yours sincerelyLi Hua第二节概要写作（满分25分）阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要．Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in theright family， and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck． I'm not going to say luck， talent， and circumstances don't come into play because they do． Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence， and that's just the reality of how life is．However， to succeed in life， one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical． And， in addition to that， in order to get really good at something， one needs to spend at least 10，000 hours studying and practicing． To become great at certain things，it'll require even more time， time that most people won't put in． This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love． If you don't enjoy what you do， it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it．When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success， you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost． It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent， but thinking that way does you no good， and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway．Whatever you do， if you want to become great at it， you need to work day in and day out，almost to the point of addiction， and over a long period of time． If you're not willing toput in the time and work， don't expect to receive any rewards． Consistent， hard work won't guarantee you the level of success you may want， but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever you put all that work into．参考答案与试题解析2021学年湖北省高一（下）期中英语试卷（A卷）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分25.0分）第一节（共3小题；每小题2.5分，满分25.0分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．1.【答案】CBA【考点】记叙文阅读故事类阅读【解析】本文主要讲述了意为名叫潘林的土兵在荒凉的海洋中凭借自己的才智和勇敢、坚韧的意志最终克服了艰苦的条件，存活了下来，并且他的求生方法被后人不断地借鉴．【解答】（1）C．词义猜测题．根据文章第二段"He
