辽宁省瓦房店市高级中学2020-2021学年高一6月基础知识竞赛英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择It was one of my first lessons as an international student in New York City. My US history teacher had just finished his lesson. He sat back in his armchair comfortably, and asked: “Was there anybody doing anything interesting yesterday?”“I drew a panda, which was lovely!” a girl beside me shouted.Then, the talk developed rapidly. Someone said he had received his learner’s driving permit, while anoth er mentioned that she had spent the first salary from her part-time job. Everybody seemed to have something to say. Although there was a range of people, from different backgrounds, people seemed to feel at home with each other.Not me. I stayed aloof from the discussion. I looked through my notes until I looked up to see another teacher come in and share some cookies he had made yesterday. The beautifully baked cookies sent out a good smell, which made it impossible to concentrate on my work any longer. However, my seat was in the back row, and I was too shy to stand up and take a cookie for myself.“Go ahead and have one!” It was the history teacher: “If you don’t stand up, nobody is going to feed you!”I was still hesitant, but I got up and took a cookie with some other classmates. Now I felt more at ease. We laughed about how “greedy” we were.The “cookie crisis” had taught me a lesson. I would have to be less shy in the United States. Here was a mixed and various culture, and if I wanted to get anywhere I would have to brave its newness and difference and make myself heard, just as the teacher had said. Otherwise, “Nobody is going to feed you.” It was something a person new to the US, such as myself, needed to learn.1.The atmosphere in a US classroom is quite __________.A.lively B.lonelyC.bad D.quiet2.What does the underlined phrase “aloof from” mean?A.in spite of B.instead ofC.apart from D.away from3.What prevented the writer from getting a cookie for himself at first?A.His bravery. B.His shyness.C.His strangeness. D.His weakness.4.The “cookie crisis” in the last paragraph was __________ to the writer.A.an important problem B.a kind of valuable foodC.a turning point in his life attitude D.a dream in his school lifeMonday 2nd JanuaryI am in a small village in the Carpathian Mountains, north of Bucharest, the capital of Romania. I’ve come to see the brown bears, which come to the villages at night to look for food. They walk 20 kilometres a night to get here. A farmer told me that some of his sheep have been killed by bears. But this is unusual. Usually, the bears just take bits of food which people have thrown away. Tonight I hope I’ll see them.Tuesday 3rd JanuaryLast night I waited with a group of tourists and as it grew dark, we saw the huge black shapes of bears. It seems the bears don’t go for people, unless they are attacked first. They were not afraid of the tourists, who took photos of them. Those clever bears knew where to go for their dinner. They jumped straight into the rubbish, where there was lots of food which people had thrown away.Wednesday 4th JanuaryAlthough it’s wonderful to see the bears in the village, it can only mean one thing: their habitat is disappearing. They would prefer to stay hidden in the mountain forests, but the trees have been cut down for firewood. So they cannot find enough food any more.Thursday 5th JanuaryToday I met the head of the Carpathian Animal Protection Group. He says that there are only about 2,500 bears left, and is worried that they will soon become extinct. Rich people from other countries pay a lot of money to come and shoot the bears for sport. The poor people from these villages need the money. But perhaps they could make more money from the tourists who want to come just watch the bears; and this would continue in the future. Once the bears are all dead, the tourists will stop visiting the village. But if the bears keep visiting the villages, then, perhaps, so will the tourists.5.The best title for this passage would be _____________.A.Hungry Brown Bears B.Brown Bears in the Forest C.Wandering Brown Bears D.Brown Bears—A Wonder6.It is unusual to the writer that ________________.A.the brown bears like to be taken photos of.B.the bears come out at night to look for foodC.the bears just take bits of food thrown awayD.the bears have attacked a farmer’s sheep7.The villagers could continue to earn money from the bears if _________.A.they shot the bears for sportB.people paid more money to kill themC.more tourists came to see the bearsD.the villagers sold the bears’ skins to tourists8.What will happen to the bears in the future?A.They may be kept in zoos.B.They may become extinct.C.They may keep eating rubbish.D.They may be watched by visitors.Sun Tours: Short breaks in New YorkDAY 1: TIMES SQUARE AND THE LINCOLN CENTERWelcome to New York—the Big Apple!

On your first day you will visit the famous Lincoln and Rockefeller Centers, and drive down Fifth Avenue. You will drive through Times Square, the “Crossroads of the World”. You will then travel to Central Park, a miracle in the center of Manhattan. Lunch is on your own, but this evening you will have dinner at the famous Jekyll and Hyde club, where the waiters are all dressed as vampires(吸血鬼), and at some point in the evening Frankenstein (科学怪人)comes to life.DAY 2: EXPLORING THE CITYThe entire day is yours for sightseeing and shopping.

The meaning of an idiom is different from the actual meaning of the words used. “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” is a proverb. Proverbs are old but familiar sayings that usually give advice. Both idioms and proverbs are part of our daily expressions. Many are very old and have interesting histories. See how many of these expressions you know.“Bury the hatchet.”Native Americans used to bury weapons to show that fighting had ended and enemies were now at peace. Today, the idiom means to make up with a friend after an argument of fight.“A close shave.”In the past, student barbers learned to shave on customers. If they shaved too close, their customers might be cut or even hardly escape serious injury. Today, we use the idiom if a person narrowly escapes disaster.“Raining cats and dogs.”In Norse mythology the dog is associated with wind and the cat with storms. This expression means it’s raining very heavily.To “shed crocodile tears.”Crocodiles have a reflex that causes their eyes to tear when they open their mouths. That makes it look as though they are crying while swallowing their food. In fact, neither crocodiles nor people who shed “crocodile” tears feel sorry for their actions.“Saved by the bell.”In 17th-century England, a guard at Windsor Castle was accused of falling asleep at his post. He claimed he was wrongly accused and could prove it; he had heard the church bell chime (鸣响) thirteen times at midnight. Townspeople supported his claim and he was saved. Today we think of the bell that ends a round in boxing, often saving the boxer from injury, or the bell at the end of a class period, saving you from more work. Now this idiom means rescue from a situation at the last possible moment.12.The best title of this passage will probably be ___________.A.Everyday Expressions B.Not Idioms But ProverbsC.Idioms and proverbs are old D.Idioms or proverbs13.The purpose of this article is to ________.A.compare some useful and interesting idioms and proverbsB.tell us some idioms and proverbs which can be used todayC.explain the meaning of some interesting everyday expressionsD.show the importance of using proverbs and idioms in your writing14.It can be inferred from the article that _________.A.idioms and proverbs are a must in our lifeB.proverbs are more common than idiomsC.idioms are more interesting than proverbsD.it is difficult to guess the meaning of idioms15.Which of these statements is an example of “a close shave”?A.My brother bought a new computer yesterday.B.My friend will come to my city to see me.C.A car nearly hit me on my way to school.D.No one in my school has ever been to Canada.二、七选五Every student has tests when they are at school. But have you ever been so worried about the tests that you can’t fall asleep at night? Have you ever felt sick or had a headache during a test?16.. This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, frustrated, scared, or afraid ---- which can give you a stomachache or a headache.17.. Good or normal stress might happen when you are called to answer a question in class or when you have to give a speech. This kind of stress can help you to get things better done.18..But bad stress can happen if the stressful feelings keep going over a long time. You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is ill, if you are having problems at school, or if you are going through anything else that makes you upset every day. 19. .20. . That means making good decision about how to spend your time. If you are only dealing with school stuff and have no time to play, you can get stressed. Make sure you keep your SELF in mind: Sleep, Exercise, Leisure and Food. If you take care of yourself and get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for fun stuff, you will probably be less stressed out!A.However, there are two different kinds of stress.B.Can you tell a kind of stress from another one?C.The best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life.D.That kind of stress isn’t going to help you, and it can actually make you sick.E.Since bad stress is harmful for us, you’d better try to change it into good stress.F.If so, then you know what stress is. Stress is what you feel when you are worried oruncomfortable about something.G.For example, you may do a better job on your test if the stress pushes you to prepare well before the test.三、完形填空F-A-M-I-L-YI bumped into a stranger as he passed by, “Oh, excuse me, please.” was my reply. He said, “Please 21 me too; I wasn’t even watching you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. We went on our way and we said 22 . But at home a 23 story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old?Later that day, I was cooking the evening meal, and my daughter stood beside me very 24 . When I turned, I nearly knocked her down. “Move out of the 25 ,” I said with a26 . She walked away, her little heart was broken. I didn’t realize how harshly I’d spoken.27 I lay awake in bed, God’s still small voice came to me and said, “While 28 with a stranger, common politeness you use, 29 the children you love, you seem to abuse. Look on the 30 door, you’ll find some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She picked them herself: pink, yellow and 31 . She stood quietly not to spoil the 32 , and you never saw the tears in her eyes.”By this time, I felt very small, and now my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt by her 33 . “Wake up, little girl, wake up,” I said. “Are these the flowers you 34for me?” She smiled, “ I found them out by the tree. I picked them because they’re 35 like you. I knew you’d like them, especially the blue.” I said, “Daughter, I’m sorry for the way I acted today; I 36 have yelled at you that way.” She said, “Oh, mom, that’s okay. I love you 37 .” I said, “Daughter, I love you too, and I do like the flowers, especially the blue.”Are you aware that: If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily 38 us in a few days. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family—an 39 investment indeed.So what’s behind the story?

湖南省部分校2021-2022学年高一下学期基础学科知识竞赛英语试题一、阅读理解You know that classics like Little Women and To Kill a Mockingbird started as novels. But you probably didn't know that these other famous movies also came from books.Hidden FiguresThis film told the story of real-life Katherine Johnson and other female African-American mathematicians who helped drive the United States into space in the 1960s. It was actually based on a 2016 nonfiction book and the movie did boost sales of the book.Forrest GumpThe 1994 movie which was based on the book by Winston Groom won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for the star Tom Hanks. Although the movie's critical and box-office success gave the book a huge boost, it's the film that made its mark on pop culture history.The Girl on the TrainPaula Hawkin's psychological thriller, about a woman on a train who thinks she sees something strange out of the window, was a huge success. But unlike the fast-paced, can't-be-put-down quality of the novel, the movie was boring.Field of DreamsIt’s hard to describe the plot of this movie: Ray Kinsella hears a voice telling him to build a baseball field in his Iowa cornfield, and what happens next explores the themes of lost dreams, childhood heroes, and healing the pain of the past. The 1989 movie adherest W. P. Kinsella's 1982 original, Shoeless Joe, but cuts out some extra characters.1.Which is the best choice for a person who loves math?A.Hidden Figures.B.Forrest Gump.C.The Girl on the Train.D.Field of Dreams.2.Who has won the Academy Award for Best Actor according to the text?A.Tom Hanks.B.Winston Groom.C.Kevin Costner.D.W.P.

Stewart, a vet at an animal shelter, noticed its scratched-off furs—signs of an allergic reaction to fleas(跳蚤). He approached the man and offered to bring flea medications for the dog’s skin, a gift the man readily accepted. “I remember returning a week later, and the hair was coming back, the red spots on its skin were gone,” Stewart told the Modesto Bee. The man said his dog was no longer staying up scratching and was sleeping well. “‘And you know,’ he said, ‘I’m sleeping at night.’ He started to cry, and that got me choked up too,” Stewart said. Stewart was hooked. “When you give back, there is something you get in return that feels much larger. I knew I wanted to keep doing it,” he told .Today, Stewart, 50, has his own practice in town, yet he still finds time for street pets. He’s helped roughly 400 animals since 2011, mostly dogs but also a few cats.There’s a strong need for his kind of help. About 25 percent of Modesto’s homeless population own a pet, but there are few health-care options available to them. To fill that void, Stewart, using his free time, wanders dark alleyways and underpasses, anywhere he thinks the homeless might be camped out. He carries his medical bag, which contains treatments—vaccines, antibiotics, flea medications, and more. Stewart pays for almost all of it out of his own pocket.For those expensive procedures, he setup a Go Fund Me account to provide enough money for treatment. “I don’t ever want to have to turn anybody away,” he explains.He knows there are some people who question whether the homeless should even have pets. How can they care for them on the street? Stewart told the Bee, “I think that more than anybody, they need a pet. They love their pets probably more than the average person.”4.What did Stewart do for the homeless man’s dog?A.He brought some medicine to it.B.He sent a unique gift to it.C.He cured its allergy to dust.D.He scratched it to help it sleep well. 5.What does the underlined word “void” mean in Paragraph 3?A.Time.B.Gap.C.Desire D.Choice.6.Why does Stewart setup Go Fund Me for sick dogs?A.To give free medical treatment.B.To offer a comfortable shelter.C.To pay the cost of healthcare.D.To provide care and adoption.7.Which of the following is a suitable title of the text?A.The Homeless Dogs B.Go Fund MeC.Animal Shelters D.A Street VetOne New Year’s Day, ecologist Rob Wolton came up with an unusual resolution—to spend the next 12 months studying a hedge(树篱) 40 metres from his house in the middle of Devon. He wanted to make a list of every plant, animal and fungus(真菌)that used it. After a year of observations he had found 2, 000 species—far more than he imagined. Wolton says he enjoyed it hugely and his findings contribute to the growing body of evidence that hedges should not be overlooked.“There is increasing recognition that much of the wildlife finds shelter in the hedges. But they’re much more than just wildlife passages—they are really important as habitats in their own right,” he says. The European commission’s Joint Research Centre recently argued that as the climate crisis worsens, hedges are expected to play more roles as they move in response to environmental change. Their deep roots help sequester carbon(固碳), and they also reduce the likelihood of flooding downstream, suck nutrients and pollutants out of water, and prevent soil loss. Alongside these functions, there is a cultural benefit to hedges too—I think lots of us who live in England think of the hedge landscape as being quite typical, says Wolton.After the Second World War many hedges were removed to create more productive land. Only about one in three hedges in England are in good condition, according to the most recent research done in 2017.The main issues are hedges being cut too severely and too frequently, which leads to loss of wildlife and gaps. A squirrel, for example, will turnaround if there is a gap of five metres. New hedges are being planted with single species, instead of many, which decrease the wildlife they can support.It’s hard to say if interest in hedges will translate into action on a national scale,and muchdepends on what landscape features Environmental Land Management scheme.8.What is the significance of Wolton’s study of the hedge?A.It makes Wolton’s resolution come true.B.It shows Wolton’s fondness of the hedge.C.It indicates the important role of the hedge.D.It points out the number of animals and plants.9.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.Hedges provide home for wildlife.B.Hedges are used to fight climate crisis.C.Hedges area typical symbol of England.D.Hedges have advantages in different aspects.10.Why does the author mention “A squirrel” in Paragraph 4?A.To show the diversity of wildlife in hedges.B.To explain the bad effect of gaps in hedges.C.To call for more species of plants in hedges.D.To present what the loss of wildlife is like.11.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.The favorable policy on hedges is undecided.B.Public attention in hedges will be intensified.C.A national scale protection is soon underway.D.Environmental Land Management will fund hedges.Did you know roughly one third of food for human consumption goes to waste? Most of it is fresh fruits and vegetables that go bad. The produce dries out or goes bad, which has led scientists to develop ways of coating or sealing the food to keep it fresher for longer. Now research at Rice University reveals there might be a better way.Scientists discovered that dipping produce like strawberries and bananas into an egg-based was his remarkably good for preserving it. The coating is extremely thick, and made from a mixture of powdered egg whites and yolks(70%), and some wood-sourced cellulose(纤维素) to act as a barrier preventing water loss.What the scientists found was that the egg-based wash made a significant difference in helping produce stay fresh over a two-week observation period. The appearance of the coated fruits and vegetables didn’t change much, while the uncoated produce ripened and even rotted within the same timeframe. The egg-based coating, as it turned out, reduced each fruit’s chance to get exposed to oxygen.The non-poisonous coating was found to be flexible and tests showed that it was just as tough as other products,including synthetic films(合成膜), used in produce packaging. For anyone with an egg allergy, the coating can be removed by thorough washing in water and is tasteless.The scientists hope this could be a breakthrough in the fight against food waste. “Reducing food shortages in ways that are not related to genetic modification, uneatable coatings or chemical additives is important for better sustainable living,” said materials scientist and study author Pulickel Ajayan.What’s great about this discovery is that it fights food waste in more than one way: even the coating was made from eggs that would otherwise have been thrown away because they weren’t fit for consumption. The researchers said roughly 200 million of US produced eggs go to waste annually.

Wildlife has be enable to reclaim urban spaces while people have been tapping away at their home keyboards, with less commuter (通勤者) traffic.17 The major benefits of home working include people having more flexibility to do jobs around their family, and balance exercise and leisure time, thus being able to wear whatever they like, controlling their own heating and lighting and not having to commute.Many people have also been able to get more done while working remotely. 18 “There used to be a lot of resistance to working from home because managers thought employees would just go of off and watch soap operas, but there’s a lot more trust now,” says Sue Williamson at the University of New South Wales in Canberra, Australia.19 Many people forced to work from home have reported feeling isolated and finding it harder to switch off due to the unclear boundary between work and home life. 20 This is probably because it’s hard to get those accidental conversations between people that spark ideas when everyone is physically separated.As vaccines help to control Covid-19, many organizations are hoping to reap the best of both worlds by letting employees work from home on some days and travel to the office on others. A.But what about the benefits to people?B.More than 2 years in, it is time to reflect.C.After a severe period, there is no turning back.D.However, the experiment hasn’t been all positive.E.It is time to reset and rethink how we actually work.F.Many managers have also reported declines in innovation.G.The productivity level is found to rise as they work from home.二、完形填空It was a freezing cold winter night.

Passage 1Sports have always played an important role in my life. I grow up, and still live, in a small town, where activities are limited. School sports were my only form of athletics for quite a long time. And as much as I love basketball, it can't be played all year round.What to do, what to do? Thankfully, my mom showed me how to have fun with one of her favorite childhood pastimes: roller skating. When I was eight years old, she would take me to a small roller skating rink about 45 minutes away from my house. There, we would join dozens of other children and parents, and spend a good three hoursskating around the rink. The echoes of my wheels against the smooth wooden floor, the cheers from the crowd, and the smell of popcorn are all things that I will never forget. My mom was my partner in crime back then. Together we would skate around the rink, trying to race past the other skaters as fast as we could. She'd always let me win, but I never told her that I always let her win.Then, at around 2pm, we would take off our skates and head over to the small café attached to the rink. There, we would treat ourselves to some of the best hot dogs in the area. To this day, I can hardly finish a hot dog without getting those pangs of nostalgia and rolling back to the days of my mom, roller skates, and hot dogs.1. The author's mom taught him how to roller skate because__________.A. he loved basketballB. he lived in a small townC. he couldn't play basketball all year roundD. he had no other activities to do2.

高一英语下学期基础学科知识竞赛试题时量:100分钟满分:100分第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项.AHigh school is more than just attending classes and trying to get good grades. Students can take full advantage of the opportunities high school offers them to explore their interests and interact with fellow students in activities and clubs. Honor SocietiesFor students who do well academically or artistically, there are organizations like the National Honor Society, National Science Honor Society and National Art Honor Society that reward students whose achievements are superior. Students who desire to be a part of high school honor societies are required to have grade point averages of at least 3.0, on a 4.0 scale, and may have to get nominated(提名)by teachers or request recommendation letters. While these organizations focus on scholarship, they also teach members leadership skills and encourage community service.Sports and Athletics ClubsWhether formally joining a sports team or simply participating in school activities, high schools offer students a wide range of sports and athletics clubs. Helping students stay active and healthy, these clubs teach students the importance of teamwork, patience and practice.Community Service OrganizationsOrganizations like the Key Club International and Habitat for Humanity help students give back to their communities by participating in structured service learning activities. From cleaning a local park to distributing(分配)Thanksgiving baskets to the homeless, these organizations teach children the importance of reaching out a helping hand to those in need.Career Development ClubsDetermining the right career path comes from exploring different options to learn what each career requires and how it fits your interests. High schools develop clubs and organizations dedicated to students who want to own businesses, become teachers, doctors, lawyers and actors, among many other careers. Students participating in these clubs are active in the community and often compete against students on local, regional and sometimes national levels. Clubs like DECA(an association of marketing students) and FBLA(Future Business Leaders of America) have students compete against one another to test their business skills. Other career-oriented clubs include organizations for future teachers, debate and photography enthusiasts.1. Which of the following has a requirement for student achievements?A. Career Development Clubs.B. Honor Societies.C. Community Service Organizations.D. Sports and Athletics Clubs.2. What do Sports and Athletics Clubs and Community Service Organizations have in common?A. They both need students to work together.B. They both teach students practical skills.C. They both provide moral education for students.D. They both build students' confidence.3. What is the purpose of Career Development Clubs?A. To help students with career planning.B. To train people for all walks of life.C. To lead students to find their hobbies.D. To improve students' awareness of competition.B"Nature never stops being amazing," says Rosemary Mosco, master of humorous nature art. Her new book, Birding Is MyFavorite Video Game, combines fascinating facts with charming pictures, and it's guaranteed to make you laugh. In fact, the learning and laughing are both equally important to Rosemary."There's so much to love about birds," notes Rosemary. "I admire that they're real-life, modern dinosaurs! As an artist, I'm captivated by their color variations.Once you get into birds, the interest snowballs. You can find them almost everywhere. You start to notice subtle behaviors and wing patterns. You're never bored again. Teaching a kid to watch birds is a huge gift."Birds make regular appearances in Rosemary's nature art comics(连环漫画). She created charts(图表)explaining the songs and calls of common eastern and western birds. One of her most popular pieces is a flow chart helping you to decide whether or not to help a baby bird fallen from a nest. And her own personal favorite cartoon is about tiny owls, meant to be both motivational and mildly disturbing. Rosemary explains: "One reader asked me if we had any evidence that these owls can kill and eat a moose(驼鹿). My response was, not yet…"Rosemary loves other animals, and is especially proud of a poster she drew showing every snake in the US and Canada. She also has a real soft spot for butterflies. "Their behaviors can be surprisingly complex," she points out. "They defend habitats with dogfights. They have complex relationships with poisonous plants. Some of them cat waste and drink tears. Oh, and it helps that they pose nicely for photos."Mostly self-taught, Rosemary has taken a few art courses, even studying video game art for a bit. During her career, she's created many educational charts, and has been working on some children's science books. She also has an upcoming comics novel about the solar system."I'm excited to share more stories about the natural world." Rosemary says about the future of her nature art comics. "Humor gives science wings!"4. What is the main feature of Rosemary's comics?A. A novel of ecology and cartoons.B. A combination of nature art and science.C. A mixture of entertainment and education.D. A book of interesting facts and behavior charts.5. What does the underlined word "captivated" mean in Paragraph 2?A. Puzzled.B. Attracted.C. Shocked.D. Encouraged.6. The purpose of writing Paragraph 4 is to .A. share the content of Rosemary's comicsB. explain the popularity of Rosemary's artC. prove the hardship of Rosemary's creationD. disclose the source of Rosemary's inspiration7. What is Rosemary most likely to do next?A. Take some art courses.B. Write a new birding book.C. Draw the sun humorously.D. Observe moose's behavior.CSign language, the primary form of communication of the deaf community, has been in use for hundreds of years. You're probably most familiar with American Sign Language, but sign language is used all over the world and has nearly 150 variations. Sign language interpreters can be seen everywhere from classrooms and graduation ceremonies to major sporting events.When you think of sign language, you most likely imagine signers using their hands to form words and letters. However, hands arc only one of the many different body language techniques that signers use to get their meaning across. In fact, much of the grammatical structure of sign language is not indicated by the signer's hands.While the hands are responsible for forming the words themselves, markers called "non-manual elements" control much of the languages' grammatical structure. Non-manual elements (or markers) arc body language techniques that don't use the hands. These include head movements, body positioning and facial expressions. Used together with the signs. these elements give sign language a subtle(微妙的)and extremely complicated grammatical structure. Linguist Andrea Lackner from Alpcn-Adria University in Austria did a study that shows just how important these non-manual elements arc to sign language users.The study assessed just how many different things non-manual elements can do. For this study, all participants were deaf users of Austrian Sign Language. They watched a video of someone using sign language, and they had to describe the purpose of each non-manual element. The results were very complicated. For instance, things as subtle as the direction of the signer's gaze can indicate whether or not a statement is hypothetical(假设的). A single head movement can indicate the emotion of astatement, a conditional or if situation, or a signer's feelings toward a hypothetical question. Body language is always important, but in sign language, it can change the entire meaning of a sentence!8. What do signers use their hands to do mostly?A. To know people's words and letters.B. To understand people's meanings.C. To form the grammatical structure.D. To form words and letters.9. What do non-manual elements include?A. Words, sign language and body language.B. Head movements, body language and signs.C. Head movements, body positioning and facial expressions.D. Body positioning, facial expressions and signs.10. What does the study show about sign language?A. The main function of the non-manual elements.B. The importance of the non-manual elements.C. The influence of body language on sign language.D. The influence of sign language on body language.11. What may be the best title for the text?A. Non-manual Elements Counts in Sign LanguageB. Ways to Avoid Being MisunderstoodC. Grammatical Elements in Sign LanguageD. The Importance of Sign LanguageDNobel prize-winners, legendary(传奇的)authors, and famous scientists-you might think all these people were born to be creative. However, that's not always the case.While well-known figures like Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein did their most significant work in their youth, famous American poet Robert Frost and English-born natural scientist Charles Darwin were known as "late bloomers"-people whose talents were not noticeable until later in life.This idea of "peaking" at different times inspired new research from the United States. "Many people believe that creativity is exclusively(独有地)associated with youth,but it really depends on what kind of creativity you're talking about," said Bruce Weinberg, a professor of economics at the University of Chicago and co-author of the study.According to the study, published earlier this month in the journal De Economist, there are two types of people: conceptual(概念的)and experimental thinkers.To reach this conclusion, researchers took the 31 previous winners of the Nobel Prize in economics and arranged them according to when they did their most significant work, to identify their creative peaks.Some peaked from ages 25-29. Classified as conceptual thinkers, these people think outside of the box, coming up with new ideas before they become used to the conventional way of doing things.The second creative peak came with economists in their 50s. These are experimental thinkers who have been in their fields for a long time. This allows them to learn from errors and experiment with different processes, before eventually finding new solutions."Whether you hit your creative peak early or late in your career depends on whether you have a conceptual or experimental approach," said Weinberg. He added that their study isn't limited to economics, saying it can apply to other creative disciplines(知识领域). So if you're struggling to come up with new ideas, don't panic. Your creative peak may be yet to arrive.12. What did the study from the US find?A. Young people arc not necessarily more creative than old people.B. Most people take a conceptual approach when thinking.C. People's creative peak in their life is related to their job type.D. Conceptual and experimental thinkers hit their peaks at different times.13. What is the characteristic of conceptual thinkers?A. They tend to challenge conventional rules.B. They arc creative due to their young ages.C. They arc likely to follow traditonal rules.D. They fail to come up with new ideas.14. What do we know about experimental thinkers?A. Their talents usually bloom in their 20s.B. They are good at doing experiments.C. They work out new methods based on experience.D. They are more successful than conceptual thinkers.15. What would Weinberg probably agree with?A. It's difficult to find one's talent in later years.B. More research needs to be done about creative peaks.C. Conceptual thinkers could be more successful in the art field.D. Experimental thinkers from other fields may succeed in their 50s.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.How to Improve Math SkillsMake math part of your life. Take the opportunity to put your math skills to work in new and different situations outside your normal routine. 16 For example, if, say, a sweater that's regularly$38 is on sale for 30% off, what is the sale price? Or if you plan to hike a new trail that's 7 miles long and it takes you 20 minutes to walk a mile, how long should you plan for your hike to take?Make studying math a priority. 17 Doing so will help you avoid procrastinating(拖延)and make it easier to get into "math" mode(模式)instead of sitting and staring blankly at the math book for 10 minutes. After putting in your study time, reward yourself by doing something you enjoy. It will encourage you to get through your math work and help you associate it with something pleasurable.Take a break every hour. 18 You won't be able to maintain necessary focus and you'll quickly tire yourself out. Instead, take a quick break to stand up, stretch, get a drink, or use the bathroom every hour.19 In math, each topic builds upon the next, so, much like reading, it's difficult to make forward progress if you haven’t mastered all of the necessary steps. If you're struggling with a particular idea or concept, don't skip it and move ahead.20A. Solve problems neatly and completely.B. Master one concept before moving on to the next.C. Take the time to apply math in common situations.D. Avoid trying to solve math problems in your head.E. Don't try to work hard through four unbroken hours of math problems.F. Instead, seek help from the instructor or the tutor until you've mastered the idea.G. Set aside time to work on math at the same time and in the same place every day. 第二部分语言运用(共两节,满分25分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.The Road Less TravelledPennsylvania is one of the oldest states in America full of mysterious places.

The house was very old and shabby and the owner hardly ever came out. Whenhe did come out, he would not say hello to his neighbors or passers-by but simplyjust glare at them.The boy knocked on the door and waited, sweating from fear of the old man. Theboy's parents told him to stay away from the house, and a lot of the other neighborhoodchildren were told the same thing from their parents.Dust found the boy lingering on and hesitating what to do. As he was ready towalk away, the door slowly opened. "What do you want?" the old man said impatiently.The little boy was very afraid but he had a quota(份额)to meet for school with sellingthe magazines. So he got up the courage and said. "Uh, sir, I am selling these magazinesand uh, I was wondering if you would like to buy one from me."The old man just stared at the boy without a word. The boy could see inside theold man's house and saw that he had dog figurines(小雌像)on the fireplace mantle."Do you collect dogs?" the little boy asked. “Yes, I have many collections in my house. They are my family here and they arc all I have.” The boy then felt sorryfor the man, as it seemed that he was a very lonely soul."Well, I do have a magazine here for collectors. It is perfect for you. I alsohave one about dogs since you like dogs so much." The old man was ready to close thedoor on the boy and said, "No, boy. I don't need any magazines of any kind, now goodbye."The little boy was sad that he was not going to make his quota with the sale.He was also sad for the old man being so alone in the house that he owned. The boywent home and then had an idea. He had a little dog figurine that he got some yearsago from an aunt. The figurine did not mean nearly as much to him since he had a reallive dog and a large family.Paragraph 1:The little boy headed back down to the old man's house.Paragraph 2:From that day on something changed inside the old man.。
