2014-2015学年下学期半期考试题高一英语(考试时间:120分钟,总分:150分)第一卷选择题(共100分)第一部分听力(共两节,每小题1.5分,满分30分)第二部分阅读理解(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,从每题所给的四个选项(A 、B 、C 和 D )中,选出最佳选项,并在题卡上将该项涂黑。
AWhy should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup (基因构成) as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.Exploration also allows minerals and other potential (潜在的) resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. Even non-stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products (副产品) of technological developments in the space industry!While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers.The danger exists, but knowledge can help human being to survive. While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future.21.Why does the author mention the questions in Paragraph1?A. To express his doubts.B. To compare different ideas.C. To introduce points for discussion.D. To describe the conditions on Earth. 22. What is the reason for exploring space based on Paragraph2?A. Humans are nature-born to do so.B. Humans have the tendency to fight.C. Humans may find new sources of food.D. Humans don’t like to stay in the same place.23. What makes it possible for humans to live on other planets?A. Our genetic makeup.B. Resources on the earth.C. The adaptive ability of humans.D. By-products in space exploration.BWhen Peng Liyuan stepped off the plane in Moscow, the whole world wanted to know who dressed the elegant first lady. The reporter released the secret—Ma Ke.Peng Liyuan has been wearing Ma Ke’s designs for more than ten years, a fact that was released recently when she was on her first state visit accompanying her husband President Xi Jinping. The elegant and attractive Peng, formerly a popular singer, has been compared with the US’ first lady Michelle Obama and France’s Carla BruniSarkozy, since stepping off the airplane in Moscow on March 22. Suddenly, everyone was curious to know more about the first lady’s wardrobe(衣柜).Even so, Ma prefers a lowkey approach. “If you eat a tasty egg why would you want to see the hen?” she says of all the media attention.Ma’s relationship with Peng began 10 years ago after a concert in Guangzhou when a reporter told Peng she knew the designer behind the label Exception de Mixmind. Peng asked for an introduction because she was a fan of Ma’s designs and had been wearing them for years.The two naturally became friends. Ma says: “The painting reflects(反应) the painter, and clothes reflect both the designer and the wearer. Someone desires fame and wealth, or love and sympathy; what you have in your heart is reflected in the design. Those who don’t share my opinion won’t buy my clo thes. Peng is a caring person, devoted to charity and environmental protection, which is exactly what I’m doing now.”However, regardless of the brand, Peng’s support of Chinese labels has surprised millions of Chinese who like foreign fashion brands.“Inst ead she presented a vision of Chinese fashion, desiring to bring Chinese designers to the world stage, ” says a western designer.The first lady’s doublebreasted coat and her black leather handbag can not be found at any of Exception’s shops, though Exception’s physical stores do have seen a rising number of visitors.24.The passage mainly discusses________.A. the designer of the first lady Peng Liyuan’s dress, Ma KeB. the friendship between Peng Liyuan and her designerC. Peng Liyuan’s clothes on her fi rst state visitD. the reactions to Peng Liyuan’s first visit to Moscow25.In the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 Ma Ke mentioned “an egg and the hen”to show________.A. it is hard to explain “Which came first,the egg or the hen?”B. paying such great attention to her was unnecessaryC. the outcome was more important than the processD. her dissatisfaction with the media attention on her dress26. What can be inferred from the passage?A. First ladies compete with each other whenever they are together.B. Peng’s suits can be bought in Ma Ke’s clothes stores.C. Ma Ke offered to design the first lady’s clothes through her friends.D. Peng had liked Ma’s designs long before she got to know her face to face . 27.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Peng wears the dress designed by a Chinese designer probably to support Chinesebrands.B. Many citizens found Peng Liyuan’s choice quite unexpected.C. Black leather handbags lik e Peng’s are widely sold in bag stores in big cities.D. After Peng Liyuan’s visit to Moscow Ma Ke’s clothes became more popular.CTwelve-year-old Gary Boone knows he was Mia Hamm, AmericanThe astonishing The Alchemist,28.Why did Gary Boone want to win the school talent show?A.

As they grew older, they became total strangers. They had no contact with each other when they were adults.This caused the mother great pain. Then, later, she had an idea. She decided to write a letter to them. In this letter, she told them how much she loved them, and how she wanted them to love each other in this way. She also gave them news of herself and some guidance on how to live happier lives.When the letter was ready, she wrote out one copy for each daughter, but these copies were special. Each copy contained only every second sentence of the original letter: the copy for one daughter had only the even (双数的) sentences, and the other daughter’s copy contained only the odd(奇数的) sentences. Neither contained the fullness of the mother’s message.When the two daughters received their letters, they were puzzled. To understand the half-letter, they would have to put the two letters together and read them as one, which meant they must approach one another again in love and respect. But they each blamed the other for not helping them when trying to read the half-letter.For a long time, the mother waited in vain. Then one day, when the mother had almost given up hope, there was a knock at the door. There they stood, together. “We’ve come home,” they said at the same time. “We’ve finally put our letters together, and we’ve come to say how much we love you, Mum.” Then she hugged them both, tears of joy streaming down her cheeks, and welcomed them back home.32.The mother gave her daughters incomplete letters mainly to ______.A. mend their relationsB. offer them adviceC. tell them her newsD. win their hearts33.Upon receiving their letters, the two daughters ______.A. put the letters together and read themB. blamed her mother for the half-letterC. blame each other as usualD. understood the mother’s purpose at once34.Why did the two daughters visit their mother at last?A. They wanted to apologize.B. They felt grateful for the mother.C. They had put the letters together.D. They missed home very much.35.What is the best title for the passage?A. A Sincere Apology to MotherB. A Mother’s Endless LoveC. Two Special DaughtersD. An Unusual Letter第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It was my six -year-old son ’winters break form school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta,the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I hadmeetings in New York ,So I had to get back. But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes,I encouraged—okay, ordered— them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Ourtotal take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is somethingfew of us can afford to pass up.I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing (揭露) the worst tricks. I havebeen the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple ofbooks including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do whatI believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’ s worth. I’ m also tigh when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitateto spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And Iwill also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.24.Why did Delta give the author's family credits?A. Their flight had been delayed.B. They had early bookings.C.They took a later flight.D. Their flight had been cancelled.25.What can we learn about the author?A. She is very strict with her children.B. She seldom makes a compromise.C.She rarely misses a good deal.D. She is interested in cheap products.26.What does the author do?A. She's a media person.B. She's a housewife.C. She's a teacher.D. She's a businesswoman.27.What does the author want to tell us?A. How to expose bad tricks.B. How to reserve airline seats.C. How to spend money wisely.D. How to make a business deal.CThey baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert(警觉).Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it.She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time withthe spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze (凝视) starts tolose its focus — until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at itfor twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different fromthree, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it isjust the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb,a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changingthe objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again.Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their numberchanged from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies whowere repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise(同样地)when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.28. The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’ s__.A. sense of hearingB. sense of sightC. sense of touchD. sense of smell29 Babies are sensitive to the change in______.A. the size of cardsB. the colour of picturesC. the shape of patternsD. the number of objects30.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A.To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B.To see how babies recognize sounds.C.To carry their experiment further.D. To keep the babies’ interest.31. Where does this text probably come from?A. Science fiction.C. An advertisement.B. Children’ s literature.D. A science report.DScientists have discovered a special biological behavior in dolphins (海豚) that could lead to a treatment for late-onset diabetes (晚发的糖尿病) in humans. Studies on dolphins found that healthy dolphins switch into a diabetic-like state overnight when they are not feeding, but returnto normal when they eat the following morning.The extraordinary finding has led scientists to suggest that dolphins have “ genetic switch”that allows them to imitate diabetes while they are not feeding for a night, without suffering any illeffect.If researchers can identify a similar genetic pathway in human, they may be able to developdrugs to effectively switch off diabetes. Some 2.2 million people in Britain have type 2 (orlate-onset) diabetes, a figure that is expected to reach 4 million by 2025 as a consequence of risinglevels of obesity (肥胖) .The tissues of people with type 2 diabetes have become resistant to insulin (胰岛素) so theylose the ability to control sugar levels in their blood. The condition can damage the heart, eyes,kidneys(肾脏) and nerves and contribute to 5% of all deaths, according to the World Healthy Organisation.Dolphins appear to imitate diabetes to keep high levels of blood sugar when food is rare. Likehumans, dolphins need some sugar in their blood for their brains to function normally.Venn-Watson ’ s team analysed 1,000 blood samples(样本) from 52 dolphins while they didn’ t eat anything overnight and fed in the morning. At night time, the dolphins (新陈代谢’) metabolism changed greatly and showed similar characteristics to that seen in people with type 2 diabetes.“Itsi our hope that this discovery can lead to new ways to prevent, treat and maybe evencure diabetes in humans, ”said Stephanie Venn-Watson, director of clinical research at theNational Marine Foundation in San Diego.32.What ’ s the main idea of the passage?A.Humans get some idea of treating diabetes from dolphins.B.Dolphins can switch into a diabetic-like state overnight.C.Humans can suffer the same disease as dolphins.D.Dolphins should be fed regularly to avoid diabetes.33.The key to applying the finding to curing human diabetes lies in ____________.A. producing insulin in a larger amountB. developing drugs from healthy dolphinsC. identifying a similar genetic pathway in humanD. analysing more blood samples from hungry dolphins34.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Scientists have found a similar genetic switch in humans.B.More British people will suffer type 2 diabetes due to obesity.C.2.2 million people with type 2 diabetes die in Britain every year.D.Dolphins imitate diabetes to avoid a high blood sugar level.35.What will happen to dolphins if not fed for a night according to Venn-Watson?A.Their metabolism breaks down.B.They become resistant to insulin.C.Their heart and kidneys are damaged.D.They keep high levels of blood sugar.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分10 分)Business is the organized approach to providing customers with the goods and services they want. The word business also refers to an organization that provides these goods and services.Most businesses seek to make a profit (利润)— that is, they aim to achieve income that is more than the costs of operating the business. 36 Commonly called nonprofits, these organizations are primarily nongovernmental service providers. 37Business management is a term used to describe the techniques of planning, direction, and control of the operations of a business. 38 One is the establishment(制定) of broad basic policies with respect to production; sales; the purchase of equipment, materials and supplies;and accounting39 The third relates to the establishment of standards of work in all departments.Direction is concerned primarilywith supervision (监管) and guidance by the management in authority. 40A.
