湖北省黄冈中学2015年春季高一年级期末考试英语试题考试时间：150分钟总分为：120分第一局部听力〔共两节，总分为30分〕略第二局部阅读理解〔共两节，总分为40分〕第一节〔共15小题；每一小题2分，总分为30分〕阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中，选出最优选项。

AHave you ever wondered how a popular food or dessert was first created？ Read on and find out about several of them.Chewing gum—Although ancient Greeks，Mayans，and early American settlers chewed sap〔树液〕from trees, the first commercial chewing gum was made and sold by John B. Curtis in 1848. In 1850, Curtis began selling flavored gums.Pizza—In Italy in the early 1700s, flat breads, called pizzas, were made without toppings.These tasty，filling breads were sold to the poor in Naples.When Maria Carolina, the queen of Naples, tasted one, she persuaded her husband, King Ferdinand IV, to allow this peasant dish to be made in the royal kitchen.Almost 200 years later，during her travels around the country, Italy’s queen Margherita saw Italian peasants eating pizza breads.She had a taste and fell in love with pizza. She ordered the most famous pizza cook of the day, Raffaele Esposito, to create for her a pizza made of tomato, basil, and cheese to look like the colors of the Italian flag. This remains the basis of the American version of the pizza.The ice-cream-cone—In 1904, Italo Marchiony got a patent(专利) to produce ice-cream cones. The same year at the ST. Louis World’s Fair, a Syrian waffle(华夫饼) seller Ernest Hamwi heard that a nearby ice-cream seller had run out of dishes to serve his cream. Hamwi rolled some of his waffles into a cone(圆锥) shape andoffered them to his neighbor, who put ice-cream in the cones and sold them. This first fully eatable, portable(便捷的) treat was a hit with customers immediately.M&Ms—During the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s, Forrest Mars, Sr., saw soldiers eating pieces of chocolate covered with a hard sugary coating, which kept the chocolate from melting in the sun. Using this idea, Mars developed M＆Ms in 1941. In 1954, Mars ntroduced M&Ms Peanut Chocolate Candies, along with the now famous slogan, “The milk chocolate melts in your mouth, not in your hand.〞21．Who helped to create the American version of Pizza？A．John B．Curtis and Maria Carolina.B．Maria Carolina and Ernest Hamwi.C．Raffaele Esposito and Margherita.D．Ernest Hamwi and Forrest Mars, Sr.22．Why did the ice-cream become popular？A．It was a cone—shape.B．It looked like the Italian flag.C．It was eatable and could be taken away.D．It was covered with a hard sugary coating.23．What does the slogan of M&Ms mean？A．The chocolate is not easy to melt in the sun.B．The chocolate can not be held in your hand.C．The chocolate is made by hand.D．The chocolate tastes delicious.答案与解析：答案： 21—23 C C ABMost of us remember our teachers well. Three successful Americans talk about the teachers who encouraged them.Kevin Henkes is an excellent author and illustrator whose books include Lilly’s Purple Plastic Purse, The Year of Billy Miller, and Kitten’s First Full Moon, which won the Caldecott medal. “I grew up in the school days of silent hallways and desks in neat，evenrows. One day, our forth-grade teacher allowed the class to move the desks out of rows intogroups of four. It might seem like a small thing now, but it taught me that you could do things differently; you could think outside the box. That teacher helped me view my world differently. Good teachers can change lives.〞Katherine Applegate has won many awards for her books, including the Newbery Medal for The One and Only Ivan. She also created the Animorphs series with her husband, Michael Grant.“My sixth-grade teacher in Michigan sensed that 1 wanted to write，so one day she sent me home to write about the word‘blue’in as many ways as possible. Because of that，for the first time in my life, I thought of myself as someone with special skills as a writer, someone who was unique. My teacher’s actions said‘I see something special in you.’〞In his role as U.S.Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan is in charge of the department that collects data and directs research on America’s schools.“My high school English teacher was amazing. She challenged us to express our ideas clearly in class and in our writing. There was no such thing as a bad question. She wanted to hear from us and encouraged us to speak up and express ourselves. She pulled things out of me that I didn’t know I had inside. I think that is the genius of good teachers.〞24．What does the underlined part“think outside the box〞 in paragraph 2 probably mean？A．To think in a careful way.B．To think for quite a long time.C．To think twice before doing something.D．To think of unusual ways of doing something.25．How did the teacher encourage Katherine Applegate？A．by guiding her after class.B．by asking her to write in various ways.C．by helping her to see the world differently.D．by allowing her to pick up as many skills as possible.26．What do we know about Arne Duncan？A．He became a superb lecturer after graduation.B．He was inspired to do research in high school.C．He was encouraged to realize his full potential〔潜力〕.D．He won prizes for his writings in English class.27．What does the passage mainly tell us？A．The best students learn from the heart，not from the book.B．He who makes no mistakes makes nothingC．Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.D．Take things as they come.答案与解析：答案： 24—27 D B C ACChinese officials are taking high-tech action against high-tech cheaters on the national college entrance test. In recent years, some students have used hidden electronic devices to communicate during the test. In an effort to stop them, administrators in one city took an unusual step. They used a drone, or a small aircraft without a pilot. The drone flew over two testing centers in Luoyang City in central China’s Henan province. The drone was looking for unusual signals being sent to wireless devices.Mr Lan, who only gave his last name, is an official from Louyang’s RadioSupervision and Regulation Bureau〔无线电监管局〕. He said the drone cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. He said the drone was as big as a pump at a gasoline station. Officials said that a large number of electronic signals over a testing center could mean that students were cheating by sending electronic messages during the exam.Nine million students took the college entrance exam this year. The test is known in China as the gaokao. This important test can greatly affect a young person’s future. The test results are used to decide which kind of university a student can attend. Those with the highest scores have the best chance for getting into a better university. Students spend months cramming, or studying intensely〔集中地〕, in order to get the highest possible scores. Many parents travel to the cities where the tests are given. They stay with their children during the exam, which can last two or three days. Students who do not pass the exam usually have two choices. They can repeat a year of school and retake the test, or try to find a factory job.Local media have reported on the problem of“surrogate〞test—taking. A surrogate is someone who does another person’s work. Talented students from poor families can earn large amounts of money taking the college entrance exam for students who can pay. The Education Ministry〔教育部〕said that they had put 23 people in prison for trying to cheat since last May. Students who are caught cheating can be blocked from taking the test for three years.28．What is the main problem during the exam in China according to the passage？A．Students do not want to take the exam.B．Parents bring students too much stress.C．Students cheat to get higher scores.D．Our government take loose action.29．Which one is true about the drone？A．It has been widely used in China.B．A pilot operates the small aircraft.C．A drone is twice as big as a pump.D．It looks for unusual signals during the exam.30．Students can NOT make preparations for the gaokao by________.A．studying intenselyB．taking the place of othersC．spending months crammingD．communicating more with teachers and parents31．What can students choose to do if not passing the college entrance exam？A．They have a chance for getting into a better university.B．They can repeat a year of school and retake the test.C．They can try to find a satisfactory job.D．They can take a rest for three years.答案与解析：答案： 28—31 C D B BDKids are cool to wear blue jeans and T-shirts today. It is fashionable like that. Fashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. It’s important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends isn’t that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!During the 1960s and 1970s, hippies made bell—bottomed blue jeans〔喇叭裤〕popular. Also, in the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pants〔降落伞裤〕all the fashion. Now try to find these items in today’s clothing stores!Do you know why fashions change？The answer is probably as simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old. People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movies stars, as well as popular films, television shows, books and music. We are also influenced by thefashion industry’s advertising.The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain 〔保持〕their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imitate their favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time.Clothes have been used to separate people into groups for many years. Even today, brand-name, clothing that is more expensive than other types of clothing can be used by some people to distinguish themselves from others.Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others. Don’t forget that it’s always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personality—not your clothes—speak for who you are！32．What does the example of bell—bottomed blue jeans and parachute pants in Paragraph 2 suggest？A．Fashion always changes.B．Stars are always influential.C．People have different dressing styles.D．Michael Jackson are good designers.33．What causes the changes of fashions？A．Advertisements change rapidly.B．Popular culture influences people.C．Movie stars are changing over time.D．New films and shows replace the old.34．What does the author mainly want to stress in the last paragraph？A．The advantages of staying unique.B．The bad effects of following fashion.C．The good influences of popular styles.D．The importance of having one’s own personality.35．We can learn from the text that_____________ .A．fashion is all about clothesB．the author has gone out of fashionC．clothes may separate and distance peopleD．people like imitate others’ dressing style答案与解析：答案： 32—35 A B D C第二节〔共5小题；每一小题2分，总分为10分〕We all know that exercise is good for your health. But some kinds of exercise may be better than others. Running, for example, may help to protect against heart disease and other health problems. 36 Running may be good exercise, but it can be difficult on the body. Here are five commonly shared ideas among fitness experts to reduce the risk of injury for people new to running or jogging.1．Take it easy37 Most people get running injuries when they push themselves too hard. The body needs time to get used to increases in distance or speed. Muscles and joints need time to recover.2．Listen to your bodyMost running injuries do not come out of the blue. 38 They may include body aches，sore muscles and pain that does not go away.3．39There is no single best shoe for every runner. You should find the shoe that offers the best fit and support for your feet. More importantly，you should replace your shoes every 500 to 800 kilometers.4．Take good notesTake some time after each run to write down notes about what you did and how you felt. Look for patterns，things that happen over and over again. For example，you may find that your knees ache when you run on consecutive or back-to-back days. But perhaps you feel great when you rest in between running days. 40 5．Cross trainAs we said earlier，running is hard on your body. So physical fitness experts suggest some form of cross training to improve muscle balance and to help you stay injury free. They say swimming, cycling, and yoga are good exercises to combine with running. These exercises are easier on the body.A．Get good running shoes.B．Have a good rest after running.C．Usually，there are warning signs.D．Running is better than swimming.E．Running also may help you 1ive longer.F．Do not run too much，too soon or too fast.G．These notes will help you identify the best workout for you.答案与解析：答案：36—40 E F C A G第三局部英语知识运用〔共两节，总分为45分〕第一节完形填空〔共20小题；每一小题1.5分，总分为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，选出可以填人空白处的最优选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

They are experienced in STEM teaching.BMy first job out of college laid me off after just a few years.It was part of a cruel recombination and lots of my co-workers also lost their jobs.Part of our severance package（解雇补偿金）was a career consulting service but I didn't want anything to do with it.I was depressed,and blamed myself for not being good enough.I was convinced I was a terrible worker and no company would ever want to hire me again.About a month after the layoff,I was suffering greatly when a career coach from the consultingcompany called and told me to just come in and talk to him.When I said I thought it was a waste of time,he told me to trust him and just try it.Plus it was already paid for,so what did I have to lose？I went in and met with him.Not only did he totally revise my resume but he gave me a ton of good advice.He helped me see how unhappy I'd been in my previous position and that I really wanted to focus on a different area in my field.I ended up going to graduate school on his advice to get an advanced degree in a more specialised area.My new resume also got me a lot of interviews and within a couple of months I was in a graduate program for professionals and working at an amazing job.It's been nearly 10 years and now I dare say that trusting that career coach was the best choice that I've ever made.9.How did the author feel about his job prospects after being laid off？______A.

Success comes with patience.CSearches on Google,finding friends through Facebook and being able to buy simply anything on Amazon have all been made possible thanks to major leaps forward in technology over the past 15 years.However,that conies at a price.As our lives are gradually automated,many people are losing their jobs.And advancing technology has not delivered jobs as it should.At the end of 2015 a total of 74，505 employees were working for Google's Alphabet and Facebook,accounting for less than a third of Microsoft's total staff.However,the combined stock-market value of these companies was twice as big as Microsoft's.Newcomer tech giants in the market are in need ofeven fewer workers.In 2016，semiconductor manufacturers slashed their number of workers by half to just 359，000.Despite major concerns about the future of jobs and the economy in general,140 years of data has shown technology as a whole has actually brought to life more jobs than it hasended.Technology has been described as a "great job-creating machine".For instance,while roles in the agriculture,washers,and examples of repetitive services,have decreased,there has been a rise in caring posts,such as teaching,educational support assistants；welfare,housing,youth and community workers；and care workers and home caring.The aging battle between man and machine will continue as it has for centuries.The question is "Are machines taking over our jobs,or is our workload being eased by their presence？" This will be an ongoing debate especially with the current rise in machine learning technology and artificial intelligence.13.What does the underlined word "slashed" in Paragraph 2 mean？______A. Cut.B. Increased.C. Counted.D. Predicted.14.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3？______A. Introduce a view.B. Prove a theory.C. State the opposite.D. Draw a conclusion.15.What posts are on the rise thanks to the development of technology？______A. Farmers.B. Washers.C. Miners.D. Teachers.16.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？______A. Is technology leading us nowhere？B. Is technological progress real progress？C. Does technology destroy or create jobs？D. Does technology bring convenience to humans？DIn a small tent in the middle of Panama's rainforest,AaronPomerantz,a biologist at the University of California,set up afield lab filled with microscopes and other lab equipment.Hewas looking for something nearly invisible - transparent （透明的）butterflies known as glasswings.The glasswing butterfly,a baseball-size flier that lives throughout Central and South America,is one of hundreds of butterfly species with transparent wings.This rare adaptation helps it escapepotential pared with other see-through species,such as dragonflies,glasswings are even more skilled at flying through the rainforest unnoticed because their wings don't shine in sunlight.Patel,Pomerantz's Ph.D adviser,has a lifelong interest in glasswings.To understand what makes the glasswings so mysterious,he asked a group of graduate students to take microscopic images of the wings of a dozen or so species of transparent butterflies.A butterfly's wings are made up of a thin layer of a natural polymer（聚合物），which is typically covered with tiny scales（鳞屑）.Species with transparent wings have found ways to move light around these scales by producing fewer of them,turning them straight up,or simply getting rid of them.The group found that glasswings not only produce fewer scales,but they also change many of those scales into hair,allowing light to pass through the wings more easily.In addition,the waxy coating slows down light that passes through the wings.That reduction in speed softens the impact of light hitting the scales,further reducing reflection. Understanding these properties could one day help researchers efficiently focus light onto solar panels and create cheaper antireflective lenses（镜头）for cameras or glasses.It's just fascinating to know how nature solves really interesting problems like this.You can pay extra for glasses that have an antireflective coating on them.17.Why does the author mention "dragonflies" in Paragraph 2？______A. To make a comparison.B. To explain a rule.C. To make a prediction.D. To present a fact.18.Why were pictures of wings taken with microscopes？______A. To appreciate their beauty.B. To study their composition.C. To keep them as souvenirs.D. To test the graduate students.19.What does the underlined word "them" in Paragraph 4 refer to？______A. Ways.B. Wings.C. Species.D. Scales.20.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about？______A. Properties of glasswings.B. Cameras in the future.C. Applications of the study.D. Difficulties for future studies.三、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）Rolling hills and endless green farmlands - those images are easy to appear when thinking of the country lifestyle.When lockdowns lasted so long across the world during the pandemic,social media seemed to be full of pictures of cottages and village life - people getting away from it all.So,why is living in the countryside becoming a modern fantasy？（1）______ It makes sense that some people would want to give up the crowded and noisy city streets for the peaceful country life - especially during an event like a pandemic. （2）______ But it's not just about having a greener place to look at out your window.（3）______ Villages don't normally adapt to the stop-go traffic we see in city centres.There's less air pollution in the countryside,which increases the chances of developing respiratory（呼吸的）conditions or heart disease. （4）______ That is to say,you can get more exercise.All above can also lead to less stress and an increased life expectancy.However,there are some things that need to be considered.（5）______ And as people get older,life far from doctors or public transport could become a bit of a challenge.So,if you're considering a change of pace and moving to a peaceful village,there is a range of pros and cons to consider before taking actions.A.Many young are moving to the city to make a fortune.B.Why do people prefer the city life to the country life？C.Are there benefits to considering a slower pace of life？D.There is more evidence that relates to the benefits of rural living.E.You also get more opportunities to take long walks and see the sights.F.Living far from the city means some people may feel separated or even lonely.G.The lockdowns have given people time to think about what they want from life.21.

AI had had an unusual relationship with my mother, who passed away in June 2019. Froma young age, her life didn’t turn out as she’d hoped. As a result, anger and bitterness set in and developed deep roots. After a lifetime battle with depression (抑郁) and every kind of smoke- related illness, she began showing signs of dementia (痴呆). In 2014, we moved her into an assisted living facility (疗养院), which changed her life greatly.The ladies there made her come down for lunch and dinner. They went to her room to bring her to bingo. They signed her up when they went out for an outing. Within weeks, she was changing and enjoying her new-found social life! And the dementia allowed her to forget her anger and bitterness. She started loving things again and even made us laugh. I got the mother of my childhood back that year. After she passed away, both staff and neighbours came in to see my sister and me. They cried. They told me how they would come in to see her on their days off. They told us how she waved every time they walked by and always had a compliment (赞许). But they didn’t stop there. They gave each of us a small woodenbutterfly box filled with handwritten notes about my mom.The mom of the final two years was not the mom I had for most of my life. And these women provided memories that I will keep in mind forever.1. How was the author’s mother before moving into the facility?A. Fun and happy.B. Sad but energeticC. Relaxed and brave.D. Depressed and angry.2. What can we infer from the passage?A. The author didn’t look after his mother well.B. The author’s mother had a hard time all her life.C. Only assisted living facilities can change one’s life.D. The author’s mother regained her joy in her later years.3. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A. My Memories of MomB. My Thankfulness to the LadiesC. My Relationship with MotherD. My Mother’s Struggle with DementiaBThere has been a debate for some time that food can be addictive (上瘾的). Most researchers may not agree with it. But this spring, experts on health discovered that for some, obesity (肥胖症) is “an addiction like smoking.” One month earlier, a lecture showed that food and drug addictions have much in common, especially in the way that both damage the parts of the brain involved in pleasure and self-control.Earlier this year, some scientists carried out brain-scan studies on children who looked at pictures of chocolate milkshakes (奶昔) and later ate the milkshakes. Children who are regular ice-cream eaters may require more and more ice cream for the reward centers (奖励中枢) of their brains to tell that they are satisfied.However, meditation and exercise can help the brain to overcome food addiction. Food addicts (嗜食者) should look for alternatives that still give pleasure — a fruit smoothie,for example, instead of ice cream.Food addiction seems to be linked to the types of foods we’re eating. It’s easier for human body to deal with foods found in nature, not processed (加工的) foods. When a highly processed food is eaten, the body may go uncontrollable. Potatoes are not addictive, but when they are processed into chips, what happens? Products like chips are described as super-delicious foods. They were the right combination of something salty, sweet and fatty along with “mouth-feel.”4. Why may regular ice-cream eaters need more ice-cream over time?A. To stop being addicted to it.B. To meet the needs of the brain.C. To control the centre of the brain.D. To satisfy the needs of the stomach.5. What does the underlined word “alternative s” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Replacements.B. Fruits.C. Methods.D. Drinks.6. What can we know from the last paragraph?A. Processed foods are healthier.B. People are born with food addiction.C. Processed foods usually have a better taste.D. Processed foods are usually more expensive.CThe widespread use of Internet technology has made our lives easier but causes a big challenge to senior citizens (长者), who are not always comfortable with smartphones and so many new apps.Only a few senior citizens are able to enjoy the benefits that new technologies offer. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the number of people aged 60 and above was 253.88 million in 2019, about 18.1% of China’s population. But only 23% of the senior citizens were able to use the Internet. That means more than three-fourths of the elderly are deprived (被剥夺) of the digital benefits.Many senior citizens who can’t use smartphones are facing difficulties during this pandemic (流行病). Even with a smartphone in hand and Internet available, many of them stillfeel helpless. They don’t k now how to call a taxi through the apps. There have been reports of many shops turning away elders who don’t know how to pay using smartphones, instead of letting them pay with cash. Worse still, as they don’t know how to get the Internet-based health code (健康码), they are refused to enter many public places. Presenting individual health code is part of the epidemic prevention (防疫) and control measures New technologies become popular because they are often of great use in our daily lives. But many senior citizens, especially those living in the countryside or those whose grown-up children don’t live with them, are not able to use the Internet or smartphones，either because of financial (财政的) problems or because they cannot learn new things beyond a certain point. The digital gap between the elderly and the young is becoming more obvious.However, the senior citizens should not become a silent group deprived of digital benefits. It is our responsibility to help them bridge the digital gap, and be patient with them when they face difficulties catching up.7. What do the statistics show in Paragraph 2?A. There are a small number of senior citizens in China.B. Only 23% of the senior citizens can use the computer.C. Three fourths of the elders are unwilling to use smartphones.D. Many elders fail to enjoy the convenience of the digital devices.8. What does the author try to tell us?A. Cash is no longer accepted in most shops.B. It’s a must for everyone to have a health code.C. Most elders need guidance on how to use the apps.D. Many shops now refuse to offer service to the elderly.9. The elderly can’t enjoy digital benefits for the following reasons EXCEPT_____.A. their living areasB. their financial conditionsC. their relationship with childrenD. their difficulty in learning new things10. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to the current situation of the elderly?A. PositiveB. WorriedC. NegativeD. Indifferent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。

Julia Koch began her second year as a first grade teacher in a virtual classroom last September.One afternoon, she received a 1 from Cynthia Phillips, who was having technical difficulties with her granddaughter’s tools for online learning.
