河南高一高中英语月考试卷班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解1.Dogs are wonderful companions all their own, but they can also help change your life so that you’re more accepting of new friendships. A new study studied how dogs’ brains responded to the human voice and found that “the human brain responds to dog emotions the same way it responds to human emotions” and that the dog’s brain does the same.Dogs are pack animals, so in terms of pet ownership, your dog will prefer to stay with you rather than somewhere alone. Think about how this concept applies to friendship. People today are getting more and more used to spending time on social networking, email, and text. While all methods of communication are good, there is nothing like seeing your friends and hearing their voice. With good friends, sometimes a look explains everything, and you can only get this when you’re together hanging out in person.Let’s face it, dogs never hide their feeling. They let you know what they enjoy doing most, whether it is chasing a ball, going for a walk, or getting a treat. For people, it’s harder to be open with your emotions. But in order to truly find a friend, you’ll need to let go of your fears and put trust into your friends. The reality is that you’ll never make everyone you meet happy one-hundred percent of the time, so if your friends and family think you’re great, put aside the need to be liked by everyone.Dogs wait for you to come home and are so happy to see you again that they practically do a happy dance when you walk through the door. Friends, on the other hand, are sometimes so busy that even hearing from a friend becomes an unwelcome interruption. Rather than avoid calls or emails, make a point to talk to friends on a regular basis.【1】According to the text, dogs .A.will become human’s only friendsB.can help people make their friendsC.are good at finding friendly humansD.have similar brains to humans’【2】What are pack animals?A.Animals that like to stay with othersB.Animals often owned by humans as petsC.Animals preferring to do everything aloneD.Animals that people like to stay together with【3】To keep a friendship, the author advises that one should .A.rely totally on social networkingB.try to hide his true feeling from othersC.attempt to make himself liked by everyone elseD.communicate with friends face to face more ofter【4】Why dogs often do a dance when the owners come back?A.They need something to eatB.They owners bring something niceC.They are happy to see the owners backD.They are afraid the owners will leave again2.It was five years since I had become a mother, and I felt like I had slowly been losing more and more of myself.I looked in the mirror one morning and saw a tired, crazy woman, and I just wanted to cry. And just like that my new journey into becoming a “do less” mom began. I remember the first time I tried it. I had rushed to get my kidsfrom school after work, arriving home completely shattered(散架了).I made myself a lovely cup of hot tea and headed to the sofa, I lay down and closed my eyes. At this point, all three of my kids stopped speaking and just stared. My eldest broke the silence and asked, “what are you doing mommy?” I replied: “I’m resting.” It took the kids a few more minutes to realize I wasn’t going anywhere and they did eventually leave me alone. They even figured out that they should probably take their coats off. I did not cook dinner that night--we ordered in. I did not put on a wash; instead, I told the kids they had better not get their clothes dirty during dinner because they are wearing them again tomorrow. We skipped the bath and watched a movie all on the sofa.To my amazement--no one died. The house did not fall apart. The kids were happy and fed but most importantly, when I looked into the mirror that night, I could see that woman I remember. The fun, silly woman who truly thinks she is still 25 years old, who loves ice cream and traveling and music and drinking wine. And I went to bed a bit happier that night knowing that although the road is still long, I am finally on the right track.【1】One morning the author wanted to cry because .A.the children left her aloneB.she was shocked by her changesC.the children didn’t behave wellD.she was too angry to control herself【2】What changes did the author make at last?A.She asked the children to take off their coatsB.She made dinner together with the childrenC.She put off washing the clothes of the childrenD.She went to get the children from school after work【3】How did the author’s children respond when they saw the author’s changes?A.They felt strange and unrealB.They were curious but doubtfulC.They felt excited and became interestedD.They were puzzled but accepted willingly3.Traveling is a very good activity. When you are fed up with your work and are allowed to take a holiday, you can go to the beautiful spots to enjoy the beauty of nature and the special character of other cities. You can breathe fresh air, visit some places of interest, meet different people and make friends with them. Then you will feel fully relaxed and you will have the energy to undertake the new tasks waiting for you.But sometimes, traveling is not an enjoyable thing. For example, when the bus or car you take has a badacci dent, you may be trapped in it and waste your time. What’s more, the weather can be changeable. If you are climbing a mountain, it may rain suddenly. You may be caught in the rain and may catch a cold. The worst thing is that you may have your money stolen and you may have an injury. All these are terrible things that can happen to a tourist.Therefore, before going on a trip, you must prepare yourself carefully. Firstly, you must have clear information about the weather.
