AHave you got any wonderful plans for your coming vacation?Here are some wonderful films for you to kill time.Away We GoWith a baby on his way,a young couple,Burt and Verona,look at their lives and are puzzled about what they really want.So they hit the road and look for a place to call home.On their journey,they visit some characters and learn a lot.It's about taking the scenic route in life,preparing for the hope and excitement and fear of new beginnings, while never forgetting to look out of the window.500 Days of SummerTom is in love with Summer from the moment he sees her.Can he accept that she simply likes him for now,not for forever?The movie is about Tom struggling with that reality.Tom remembers his love Summer as a series of joys and puzzlement.But Summer is just herself and he cannot have her.Here is a rare movie that begins by telling us how it will end and is about how the hero has no idea why.Orphan（孤儿）Esther,a bright and well-behaved child,however,is not as good as she appears.Soon after being taken home,the peace of her adoptive family is completely changed.If you want a good horror film about a child from hell,then you got one!Do not,in any case,take children to see it.1.What do we know about Away We Go?A.It tells us to be satisfied with our lifeB.It shows Burt and Verona's life journey.C.It tells Burt and Verona have been married for a long time.D.It shows Burt and Verona always like looking out of the window.2.What is the theme of 500 Days of Summer?A.Love.B.Season.C.Success.cation.3.What should you pay attention to when you are watching Orphan?A.Watching it at night.B.Buying enough food to eat.C.Going to a big cinema to watch it.D.Making children stay away from it.4.The author's purpose in writing the text is to .A.introduce films for a film firmB.introduce several films for peopleC.advertise several films for a websiteD.advertise some films for a cinemaBTom was a clever boy,but his parents were poor,so he had to work in his spare time and during his holidays to pay for his education.In spite of this,he managed to get to the university,but it was so expensive to study there that during the holiday he found it necessary to get two jobs at the same time so as to make enough money to pay for his studies.One summer he managed to get a job in a butcher's shop（肉店）during the day-time,and another in a hospital at night.In the shop,he learned to cut meat quite nicely,so the butcher often left him to do all the serving while he went to the back room to do the accounts.In the hospital,on the other hand,he was,of course,allowed to do the simplest jobs,like helping to lift people and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another.Both at the butcher's shop and at the hospital,Tom had to wear white clothes.One evening at the hospital,Tom had to carry a woman from her bed to the place where she was to have an operation.The woman was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operation before he came to get her,but when she saw Tom,that finished her."No!No!"she cried."Not my butcher!I won't be operated on by my butcher!"and fainted away（昏厥）.5.Tom tried to earn enough money by .A.cutting meat quicklyB.doing two part-time jobsC.studying in the universityD.cooking in a butcher's shop6.Tom was a student,but at the same time he was .A.a butcher and a doctorB.a manager and a doctorC.an assistantD.an accountant7.What can we infer from the text?A The woman patient recognized Tom. B.Tom always got high grades in his study.C.Tom's parents never gave him money to study.D.The doctors in the hospital felt unsatisfied with Tom.CSweetest Day is always the third Saturday in October.This holiday is much more important in some regions than in others (Detroit,Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest Sweetest Day cities).It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity every year throughout the country.Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy.It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick,aged,and orphaned,but also friends,relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.Over 60 years ago,a Cleveland man,believing that the city's orphans and shut-ins too often felt forgotten and neglected,formed the idea of showing them that they were remembered.He did this through the distribution of small gifts.With the help of his friends and neighbors,he distributed these remembrances on a Saturday in October.During the years that followed,other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony,which came to be called "Sweetest Day".In time,the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor was broadened to include everyone,and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift.And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country.Sweetest Day is not based on any single group's religious belief or on a family relationship.It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift-giving,Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care,in a practical way.8.Sweetest Day is celebrated to .A.spread religious beliefB.make someone cheer upC.strengthen family relationshipD.help the poor get out of trouble9.Sweetest Day originated in .A.DetroitB.ClevelandC.BuffaloD.New York10.The underlined word "remembrances" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to " ".A.tasksB.ideasC.giftsD.pills11.What can we know from the text?A.Sweetest Day is celebrated in the form of a family party.B.Over 60 years ago,men too often felt forgotten and neglected.C.Only a few religions have the tradition to celebrate the holiday.D.The idea of creating Sweetest Day came from a man who cared for orphans.DMeeting people from another culture can be difficult.From the beginning,people may send the wrong signal.Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree.For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust.Even with people at work,it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk",usually over a glass of tea,before they do any job.In many European countries,like the UK or France,people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafe rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures.I once made a speech in Thailand.I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion;instead there was an uncomfortable silence.The people present just stared at me and smiled.After getting to know their ways better,I realized that they thought I was talking too much.In my own culture,we express meaning mainly through words,but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe,cultural differences can cause serious problems.Certainly,English and German cultures share similar values;however,Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly.We think that they are rude.In fact,this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values,and sometimes these values are quite against each other.However,if we can understand them better,a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.12.People who have a "small talk" expect to .A.know business affairsB.make some new friendsC.develop closer relationsD.find a better business partner13.According to the text,the people in Thailand .A.dislike lively discussionsB.are very rude to foreignersC.like keeping silent at any timeD.are good at talking with foreigners14.Germans start business more quickly than Englishmen probably because of .A their unique cultures B.their cultural problemsC.their unique culturesD.their cultural problems15.What can be the best title for the text?A.Multicultural EnvironmentB.Cross-Cultural DifferencesC.How to Understand Each OtherD.How to Build Up a Relationship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。

AFive years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:“Make something out of the Tinkertoys.

Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a differe nt style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, “But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell somethingwildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”1. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________.A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students’ interest in artD. teach the students about toy design2. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was active in class.D. He was imaginative.3.

AI have had all kinds of interesting neighbors since the early days of my life. When I was a baby I would stand in my wooden crib(婴儿床) and watch the world go by through the window. Some neighbors watched me watching the world go by with by big, wondering eyes and found me very interesting. They used to call me “the beauty at the window”.The early neighbors I could remember were from the second house I lived in. Peter and Paul were twins. We went to play school together although they were a year older than me. I well remember the Alsatian they had which ran into me when I was invited to their fifth birthday party. Needless to say, I was well-known for my loud screams after the party. But they said the pet was scared of my screams and didn’t appear until the party was over.Peter and Paul were the first boys who encouraged me to climb the gate. I could never tell the difference between boy and girl behaviors—I just did what I thought was fun. Not only did I have a great time performing that first climb, I also got my skirts dirty, and was criticized by my mother.The Japanese neighbors I had living in this same house were my favorite, as they introduced me to sea-salt baked shrimps (烤虾) which were so crisp that you could eat the shrimp totally. They gave me some seaweed for my birthday. Thankfully, no other member in my family enjoyed the seaweed as I did. Perhaps what my mother used to joke to me was true, that I was picked up out of the dustbin that belonged to a Japanese home.Maybe sometimes it is difficult to find good neighbors in this society. But all it takes is a spark(火花) to get a fire going. I have decided to be that spark wherever I live and pass love on to my neighbors.21.

Which of the following can be the best title for the fourth advertisement?A. Nice Rome tripsB. Airport Car Rentals With DriversC. Cheap Car ToursD. Flight Service To Pick You UpCTo the mom I used to be:Two years ago, you were happy and whole. You had a plan for life --- start a new business, get involved in the Parent-teacher Association, teach your sons how to ride bicycles, spend as much time with your friends and parents as possible, watch your children mature and grow old with your husband. You were a “glass half full” person who often felt so much joy. You always looked forward, smiled and danced.Two years ago, on December 14,2012, the world changed and you changed with it. Disturbed young men with access to high-p owered guns went to your sons’ school and killed six educators and twenty first- graders. Your eldest son Jake survived, but was changed by the day he discovered some monsters are real. He describes it as the day “when evils came to my school.” Your younge st son, Dylan, whom you thought of as a pure love, with his charming eyes and infectious giggle(微笑)，was killed. Shot multiple times, he died instantly in the arms of his special- education assistant who also died while trying to protect him.The tragedy changed all your life, not only because of losing your child, but because of the hole inside you that can never be filled. Your eldest son has been forced to grow up too fast because of the loss of his brother. The pain has altered the lines on your husband’s face. The way you look at the world has changed. Your interactions with friends and family seem foreign.… …But the things have moved on with hopefulness. You are now someone far more realistic. You control your feelings because you fear if you really let it out, you would never recover. It would destroy you. You know what you should do is try everything to protect more children. You’re fighting a good fight, what the whole society really needs.With love,Nicole Hockley, Dylan’s mom28.

The letter tends to indicate that Dylan_________.A. might have some mental disabilityB. has become childish since his teacher diedC. should have been protected from being killedD was then studying in the same class as his brother30. Which can best describe Dylan's mom's attitude towards life today?A. NegativeB. PositiveC. HopelessD. Depressed31. The author writes the letter mainly to __________.A. tell herself not to forget the bitterly painful pastB. praise the educators' brave deeds in time of dangerC. tell the readers how the shooting has changed her familyD. describe the bad effects of school violence on studentsDLife is not easy in senior high school. You’ve got the pressure of studies and ex ams.From time to time, you may feel depressed and frustrated. When depression strikes, you have to take measures to fight it. One of the strangest ways to fight depression is to eat salt, scientists have found.Salt acts as a natural anti—depressant (抗抑郁剂), researchers say. While too much can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, not enough can cause “psychological(心理的) depressions”, a study has reported.The study, by researchers at the University of Iowa in the US, discovered that when rats are deficient in salt, they don’t do activities they normally enjoy.The recommended daily salt intake for an adult is four grams, although experts say the body needs only half as much.However, most adults in the developed world consume（消耗）around ten grams a day, mainly because their diets contain high salt amounts. Today, 77 percent of US salt intake comes from processed and restaurant foods, like frozen dinners and fast food.The minerals in salt are required by the body—in small quantities—to help move liquid in and out of cells. But too much can cause diseases, for example high blood pressure.Today scientists are finding that salt is an addictive substance—almost like a drug.One sign of addiction is using a substance even when it’s known to be harmful. Many people are told to eat less salt due to health concerns, but they have trouble doing so because they like thetaste and find low-salt foods tasteless.Humans have a long history of eating salt. In the Stone Age, people didn’t need to find salt, because they hunted most of their food, and ate a lot of red meat, which has plenty of salt in it. But when people began to farm, about 10,000 BC, they started to eat mainly grains like rice and wheat, and very little meat. Then they had to find another way to get salt.32. What does the underlined word "deficient" in the third paragraph mean?A. enoughB. far from enoughC. more than enoughD. plenty33. The major role of salt is to ____________.A. help the body work wellB. help fight against depressionD. help people get rid of an addiction to drugsD. help people enjoy sugary substances34. Which of the following statements is true?A. People have trouble reducing salt because they don't know it is harmful toeat too much of it.B. Before 10,000 BC, human beings did not need salt.C. The richer the country is, the more salt is eaten there.D. Taking more than 4 grams of salt a day can be harmful for an adult's health.35. What kind of food should people eat more of?A. Frozen foodB. Fast foodC. Red meat D Low--salt food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。

2017-2018学年度下学期高二期中考试英语 答题时间：100分钟 总分数：120分 阅读理解 A Here is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave indoing business in some countries.In Brazil Brazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses. Schedules tend to be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned.But to be safe, be on time. Meals can stretch for hours —there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil. Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon. Brazilians are social, preferringface-to-face communication over mails or phone calls.In SingaporeSingaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Business cards should be offered and received with two hands. Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency(效率) is the goal, so meetings and dealings often are fast-paced.Singaporeans are direct in their discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank is important and authority is respecteD.This determines both people interact in meetings. For example, people avoid disagreeing outright with someone with a higher rank.In the United Arab EmiratesIn the UAE, status is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles. The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere. So, do not pull away the handshake. Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress. Men also tend to be covered from neck to elbows(肘部) and down to the knees. People do 装订线内禁止答题 班级姓名考号not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also hold business meals at restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided.When meetings are one-to-one, if your host offers you coffee, you should refuse. It might seem odd, but it is a cultural tradition. Coffee should only be accepted if it is always set out or presented.In SwitzerlandThe Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are respectful of private lives. You should be careful not to ask about personal topics. Punctuality (守时) is vital, something that comes from a deep respec t for others’ time. Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe. They also have clear structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the final decisions, even if others might disagree. Neat, clean dress is expected.The Swiss follow formal table manners. They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table. It is polite to finish the food on your plate.1.The passage is mainly about ________.munication typesB.the workplace atmosphereC.customs and social mannersD.living conditions and standards2.Why do Singaporeans avoid arguing with their boss?A.They put efficiency in the first place.B.They dislike face-to-face communication.C.They want to finish meetings as quickly as possible.D.They are supposed to obey the person of a higher rank.3.In the UAE, when should you refuse the coffee if it is offered?A.When greeting seniorsB.When meeting the host aloneC.When attending a presentationD.When dining with business partners.4.In which country do people care about where to put their hands at the dinner table?A.In BrazilB.In Singapor eC.In the United Arab EmirateD.In SwitzerlandBCara Lang is 13. She lives in Boston, Massachusetts, in the U. S. Last Thursday, she didn't go to school. She went to work with her father instead. Every year, on the fourth Thursday in April, millions of young girls go work. This is Take Our Daughters to Work Day. The girls are between the ages of 9 and 15. They spend the day at work with an adult, usually a mother, father, aunt, or uncle. They go to offices, police stations, laboratories, and other places where their parents or other family members work. Next year, the day will include sons, too.The Ms. Foundation, an organization for women, started the program about ten years ago. In the U.S., many women work outside the home. The Ms. Foundation wanted girls to find out about many different kinds of jobs. Then, when the girls grow up, they can choose a job they like.Cara's father is a film director. Cara says, “It was very e xciting for me to go to the studio with my dad. I saw a lot of people doing different jobs.” Many businesses have special activities for girls on this day. Last year, Cara went to work with her aunt at the University of Massachusetts. In the engineering department, the girls learned to build a bridge with toothpicks and Candy. In the chemistry department, they learned to use scales. They learned about many other kinds of jobs, too. Right now, Cara does not know what job she will have when she grows up. But because of Take Our Daughters to Work Day, she knows she has many choices.5:What is Cara's father?A.An engineer.B.An official.C.A moviemaker.D.A professor.6:According to the passage, Take our Daughters to work Day is ______.A.on every Thursday in ApriB.a holiday for girls of all agesC.a day for girls to know about jobsD.a day for girls to get a job easily7:On this special day, Cara has done all the following EXCEPT that ____.A.she learned to use scalesB.she worked as an actressC.she went to work with her auntD.she used toothpicks and Candy to build a bridge8:What is probably the best title for the passage?A.Cara Lang, a Fortunate GirlB.Take Our Daughters to Work DayC.Children's Day and Work DayD.Ms. Foundation, an Organization for WomenCMany teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don’t know them as well their friends do. In large families, it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themse lves on the phone. This communication is very important in children’s growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members. However, parents often try to choose their children’s friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “choice” is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions? Who choose your friends?Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?Have you got a good frien d your parents don’t like?9:When teenagers stay alone, the usual way of communication is to _________.A.go to their friendsB.talk with their parentsC.have a discussion with their familyD.talk with their friends on the phone10:Which of the following is DIFFERENT in meaning from the sentence “Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends.”?A.Some parents may even not allow their children to meet their good friends.B.Some parents may even ask their children to stay away from their good friends.C.Some parents may even not let their children meet their good friends.D.Some parents may want their children to stop to meet their good friends.11:Which of the following sentences is TRUE?A.Parents should like everything their children enjoy.B.In all families, children can choose everything they like.C.Parents should try their best to understand their children better.D.Teenagers can only go to their friends for help.12:The main idea of this passage is that ___________.A.Teenagers need friendsB.Friends can give good adviceC.Parents often choose their children’s friends f or themD.Good friends can communicate with each otherDMany facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse,according to the doctors.I feel there are a number of reasons for this. Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded(包围)by shops selling unhealthy,fatty foods,such as fried chicken and ice cream,at low prices.This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves.If there were fewer of these restaurants,then probably children would buy less take-awayfood.There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight.I agree with this,because good eating habits begin early in life,long before children start to visit fast food shops.If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food,or are always allowed to choose what they eat,they will go for sweet and salty foods every time,and this will carry on throughout their lives.There is a third reason for this situation.Children these days take very little exercise.They do not walk to school.When they get home,they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games.Not only is this an unhealthy pastime(消遣),it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food.What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.The above are the main reasons for this problem,and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active,as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.13:According to the text,what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?A.Those who often take exercise.B.Those who often watch television.C.Those who often have meals at home.D.Those who often walk to school.14:The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because ________.A.their parents often cook meals for themB.they are too busy to go out and playC.they can’t choose what to e atD.there are too many fast food shops around15:The word“steering”underlined in the last sentence most probably means ________.A.forcingB.guidingC.drivingD.moving七选五根据短文内容 ,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳答案,选项中有两项为多余选项。

2017年英语期中考试总结范文
期中考试已经结束了，仔细分析与对比，我发现我们班的的英语虽然平均分不比别人差，但是优生的成绩却比其他班级要差。

为什么会这样？采取何种措施来补救？看了学生的答题情况，主要问题在于是词汇运用和完形填空。

单词的拼写和适当形式的变化是大问题。

而作文中的丢分就在于小语言点错误很多。

其实，开学到现在，我感觉自己最辛苦的是词汇教学，因为两个班级里能正确拼读单词的学生非常少！学生无法读单词，如何要求能出单词？！单词不认识，怎么掌握单词的用法？！今天在课堂上与学生一起进行交流与分析，学生们积极参与讨论，就如何提高英语成绩畅所欲言。

他们就我的英语教学提出很多宝贵的建议，我归纳如下几点 1, 尽量用英语教学，并且语速要快。

这有助于提高他们的语感与听力。

2，布置的英语作业要及时完成，要落实到位.
3，平时考试要诚实，不能作弊，我应该时时到下面去转转，避免少数学生不独立思考。

给学生一点轻松的空间。

不要把学生“抱”的太紧，我们需要在平时的教学中一步步地“扶”着学生，让他们慢慢地开始进入“自主学生”的状况。

若我们总不放心，不敢放手，我们的学生永远也“走”不好！同时，营造民主的课堂氛围吧！不要把学生压制得死死的！不然，哪天，你的脸上多一点点笑容，他们的学习就失去了方向。

很多时候，我觉得学生把我的“民主”，把我给他们“个性”的展示机会，当成了对他们可以不守纪律的“纵容”！面对我的可爱的学生，为了他们的英语期末考试我想我应该尽我最大的努力的。
