浙江省杭州市金华卓越联盟2023-2024学年高一上学期12月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择This week in our national park’s journey, we explore a vast area with mountains, beaches, forests, and glaciers. Olympic National Park! It covers more than 400,000 hectares with several different ecosystems.Elwha ValleyThe Elwha V alley is in the central part of the park. It is the Olympic Peninsula’s largest watershed. A watershed is an area of land that separates waters that flow to different rivers or seas. Today, the Elwha River is the site of one of the largest ecosystem restoration projects in National Park Service history.Hoh River ValleyThe Hoh River is on the west side of the park. The river is formed from melted glacial ice on top of Mount Olympus. The river is 80 kilometers long. It empties into the Pacific Ocean. The area receives about 400 centimeters of rain each year. It is a temperate rainforest. Because of the amount of rain, many different types of plants grow in the Hoh rainforest, from mosses and ferns to huge Sitka spruce trees.Hurricane RidgeHurricane Ridge is a mountain area in the northern part of the park. It is easy to enter, and provides incredible views of the Olympic Mountains. The ridge has many hiking paths. In winter, people come here to ski. They also come here to take part in other fun winter activities, like sledding and snowboarding. Hurricane Ridge usually has snow from December through the end of March. Visitors must be prepared for icy roads and severe weather.The CoastThe westernmost part of the park is Pacific coastline. Olympic National Park has many breathtaking beaches. One of them is Rialto Beach, known for its tall seastacks while North of Rialto Beach is Hole-in-the-Wall. It is a natural arch that has been carved by the powerful sea.1．What can you do on the west side of the park?A．Swim in the river.B．Learn about various plants.C．Go hiking with your friends.D．Walk on the beaches.2．Which part is the most suitable for those who like winter sports?A．Elwha Valley.B．Hoh River Valley.C．Hirricane Ridge.D．Rialto Beach.3．What do the four attractions have in common?A．They are all very cold.B．They are all rich in ecosystems.C．They can all be reached easily.D．They are all part of Olympic National Park.At noon, the Tongxin Cafeteria near the Jing’an Temple downtown has a queue that exemplifies its multi-generational popularity. The menu, with over 60 dishes rotated daily, is liked by a series of tastes.“Compared with food ordered for lunch online, this place is much better.” said Chen Luo, an accountant from a nearby office building. Chen, who lives alone, formerly depended heavily on delivered meals ordered online until her parents raised concerns about the nutritional value and what they called “bad food materials.”Cooking for herself is too time-wasting, she said. “I used to spend two hours cooking and washing dishes, only to eat for 10 minutes,” Chen said. “The nearby community canteen (餐厅) is a perfect solution. These cafeterias, once known as ‘senior canteens’, were originally built to provide healthy meals at affordable prices to older folks who might not be getting enough nutrition at home. From 2019 to 2021, the Shanghai government set a goal of building 200 new community canteens, bringing the total at the end of last year to 1,608.A basic meal with one meat dish and two vegetables costs less than 20 yuan (US$2.70), far cheaper than prices in mainstream downtown restaurants. And all meals are prepared on site with fresh materials. The government supports these cafeterias—sometimes with rent-free space; sometimes with reduced water and electricity charges.Li Jiajun, the manager of a local community canteen, said the prices of the dishes are 20 percent lower than popular market rates because of the government assistance. His canteen provides elderly diners from 10:30—11:30 am and 4:30—5:30 pm. Apart from those hours, people of all ages are welcome.Li said cafeteria managers are required to maintain detailed records, including 48-hour food samples and daily uploads to food safety platforms. This approach ensures the paths ofall materials. Some community cafeterias have become so popular that they appear on WeChat and other lifestyle sharing platforms.4．Why is the menu mentioned in paragraph 1?A．To describe the menu.B．To introduce the topic.C．To arouse readers’ curiosity.D．To highlight the dishes.5．What can we learn from the passage?A．Chen Luo’s parents were too busy to cook nutritional meals for her.B．From 2019 to 2021, the Shanghai government built 1,608 new community canteens.C．The community canteens needn’t pay for electricity with the government assistance.D．The community canteens were once built to provide healthy meals for seniors. 6．Which of the following is not the reason why community canteens become popular?A．nutrition value B．fresh materialsC．government support D．lower prices7．What can probably be the best title for the passage?A．Community canteens growing in popularityB．Tongxin canteen liked by multi-generationsC．Community canteens shared on platformsD．More community canteens built for seniorsFrom AI-made jokes to Harry Potter fashion videos, AI can be used to make funny stuff. But can it be as funny as a human? And if it can, does it present a danger to comedy writers in the future? That’s something performers have been looking at in this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe, running from Aug 4 to 28.Anyone can put on a show at the Fringe, and this year even robots were getting in on the act. One of Fringe’s big shows even used a small robot to come up with jokes from audience suggestions, which were then performed by humans. The results could be very funny, but sometimes they weren’t funny at all. That was part of the point, explained Piotr Mirowski, the show’s co-maker.“We do not use humans to ‘show off’ AI; instead, we use AI ‘to show’ its limitations, to showcase human creativity on the stage,” said Mirowski, according to the Guardian.But one performer at the Fringe said he’s using AI to make jokes for him because he’s out of ideas. Comedian Peter Bazely’s show has him playing a supporting role to “an entirelycomputer-generated comedian” called AI Jesus. The Fringe review website, Chortle, talked about today’s AI concerns: “In a world where artists are worried that AI could end up doing their jobs for them, Bazely is said to be praying this one will do exactly that.”The reasons for companies wanting to use AI are certainly understandable, but the dangers they present to many people’s jobs are becoming more and more real, and that’s not very funny. From concerns in schools and colleges about students using ChatGPT for their work, to writers and actors worrying that AI could be used to replace them, fears about the dangers of AI are a hot topic in the world.Back in March of this year, a letter calling for a six-month stop on advanced AI development was signed by over 1,000 people working with AI technologies including Elon Musk and other well-known tech leaders, reported The New York Times. Then, in May, leaders in the AI industry signed a document from the Center for AI Safety warning that AI could present an extinction-level danger and “should be a global priority alongside... pandemics and nuclear war.”8．In what way is the Fringe unique this year?A．Some jokes were created by robots.B．It presented dangers to comedy writers .C．Harry Potter fashion videos were shown.D．The AI-made jokes were very funny. 9．Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 4?A．AI Jesus is an expert in jokes.B．AI was used to show its creativity.C．Bazely was positive about using AI.D．Chortle was concerned about the use of AI.10．Why does AI present a danger in the future?A．Because many people will use AI to show off.B．Because some people will probably be out of work.C．Because well-known tech leaders will stop developing AI.D．Because AI can present pandemics and nuclear war.11．What’s the author’s attitude to the future of the AI development?A．Positive.B．Negative.C．Unclear.D．Objective.An Austrian company Tec-Innovation recently showed smart shoes that use ultrasonic sensors (超声波传感器) to help people suffering from vision impairment to discoverobstacles(障碍) up to four meters away.Known as InnoMake, the smart shoe aims to replace the decades-old walking stick that millions of people around the world depend on to get around as safely as possible. The currently available model relies on sensors to detect obstacles and warns the wearer through shaking and a loud alert sounded on a bluetooth-linked smartphone. That sounds impressive enough, but the company is already working on a much more advanced version that incorporates cameras and artificial intelligence to not only detect obstacles but also their nature.“Not only is the warning that I am facing an obstacle relevant, but also the information about what kind of obstacle I am facing. Because it makes a big difference whether it’s a wall, a car or a staircase.” Markus Raffer, one of the founders of Tec-Innovation, told TechXplore.”Ultrasonic sensors on the toe of the shoe detect obstacles up to four meters away. The wearer is then warned by vibration and/or acoustic signals. This works very well and is already a great help to me personally.” Raffer, himself visually impaired, added.The current version of the InnoMake shoe is already available for purchase on the Tec-Innovation website, for €3,200 per pair.The advanced system is integrated in the front of the shoes, in a waterproof and dustproof case. It is powered by a heavy-duty battery that can last for up to one week, depending on use. The battery can be charged in just three hours, using a USB cable.The next step for Tec-Innovation is to use the data collected by its system to create a kind of street view navigation map for visually impaired people.“As it currently stands, only the wearer benefits in each case from the data the shoe collects as he or she walks. It would be much more sustainable if this data could also be made available to other people as a navigation aid,” computer scientist Friedrich Fraundorfer explained.12．Who are interested in the smart shoes?A．The deaf people.B．The injured people.C．The blind or sight-impaired.D．The sick people.13．What does the underlined word “integrated” mean in the sixth paragraph?A．Combined.B．Separated.C．Benefited.D．Allowed. 14．What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?A．Why the smart shoes are developed.B．What the smart shoes can do.C．How the smart shoes work.D．How the data are collected. 15．Where is the text probably taken?A．A science report.B．A fashion magazine.C．An educational column.D．A news report.Vanessa Gebhardt, a psychologist, explained how breaking these harmful habits can help to have a positive effect.1. Constantly checking your phoneResearch by De Montfort University recently found that checking your phone regularly can make you more distracted and forgetful, and that’s not to mention the negative impact this habit can have on your mental health. 17 To overcome this, monitor your screen time and be mindful of who you choose to follow, which online conversations or debates you choose to join, and focus on the positive posts, rather than the negative ones.2. Being inside all dayThe corona-virus pandemic has been tough on many people as being inside all day can be difficult. Spending the majority of your day indoors can significantly increase your risk for depression, with lack of sunlight and vitamin D contributing to depressive symptoms. 18 3. 19Sleeping too little can leave us feeling under the weather, and this Vanessa says, is because sleep deprivation leads to low mood, difficulty concentrating, irritability, and getting more easily overwhelmed, which can negatively impact your mental health. Using techniques to relax before bed will help you to develop a sleep routine that works for you, helping you to feel energized and more positive during your waking hours.4. Bad dietStudies have shown that high-sugar, processed foods like cakes, bread, and biscuits, as well as red meat can significantly raise the risk for depression and eating these sorts of foods on a regular basis could be one of the reasons your mental health is suffering. To positively impact your mental health, pay close attention to the foods you are fueling your body and mind with. 205. Lack of exerciseExercising is brilliant for reducing stress and the feel-good endorphins released byexercise can be an instant mood-booster. Regular exercise can also help improve your energy levels and motivation, increasing feelings of happiness and reducing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress.A．This mindless checking is a hurtful habit to push us to look for immediate satisfaction.B．It is important to choose a meal full of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.C．Spending too much time checking your phone can reduce self-respect and produce negative thoughts.D．Sleeping too late.E．Lack of sleep.F．Pretending to go to and from work is a great way to head outside for a short walk.G．But there are some that can be bad for our mental health.二、完形填空It was a cold May morning when I received an interesting email from an old high schoolwhat you’re capable of if you don’t go out there and try.21．A．yes B．no C．so D．never 22．A．girls B．adults C．seniors D．women 23．A．swimming B．surfing C．boating D．diving 24．A．worried B．anxious C．confused D．honored 25．A．in B．out C．off D．away 26．A．eager B．new C．familiar D．specific 27．A．personalities B．goals C．desires D．interests 28．A．enjoy B．help C．challenge D．defeat 29．A．Guided B．Divided C．Designed D．Named 30．A．fell B．froze C．reached D．crashed 31．A．fear B．pride C．encouragement D．wonder 32．A．badly B．perfectly C．carefully D．bravely 33．A．try B．succeed C．finish D．manage 34．A．suggests B．stops C．prevents D．inspires 35．A．leave behind B．step out of C．reach into D．get through三、语法填空45 (sit) all the day.四、翻译46．他给我们树立了良好的榜样，从他身上我们能学到很多。

2019-2020学年山西省忻州一中高一（下）第六次月考英语试卷AThe British Museum What's onAlthough many parts of Asia have long been connected through trade along Silk Road and shared religious systems，there are strong regional differences．In addition to various languages，Asia has developed its cultural networks，patterns of government，technology and styles of artistic representation．The diverse cultural life of Africa has been expressed through everyday cooking objects and unique works of art since ancient times．The Museum's collection of over 200，000 African items includes archaeological and contemporary material from across the continent．The Iron Age was a time of big change for the people of Britain and Europe．Iron replaced bronze as the material used to make tools and weapons，while religion，art，daily life，economics and politics changed greatly．Admission and opening timesThe Museum is free and open daily 10：00-17：30 except Friday，and is open until 20：30 on Fridays，except Good Friday．The Museum is open every day except for 24，25 and 26 December and 1 January．Museum shopsBookshopMonday-Thursday 10：00-17：30 Friday 10：00-20：00Saturday 10：30-17：30 Sunday 10：00-17：30Collections shopMonday-Thursday 09：30-17：30 Friday 09：30-20：00Saturday 09：30-17：30 Sunday 10：00-17：30Getting hereBy TubeNearest underground stations：Tottenham Court Road（500m）Holborn（500m）Russell Square（800m）Goodge Street（800m）By busBuses that stop near the Museum：1，8，19，X25，38，55，98，242By carThe Museum lies within the Congestion（拥堵）Charge Zone．There is little on-street parking nearby．The nearest car park to the Museum is located at Bloomsbury Square．There is limited parking in the Museum's open space for disabled visitors only．1.

If you want to buy artists'works of the Iron Age，you may go to the Museumat ______ ．A. 20：15 Friday，July 11B. 14：45 Saturday，January 1C. 18：00 Wednesday，February 14D. 10：30 Sunday，December 283.

It is 500 meters from Russell Square to the Museum．D. The old can park their cars in the Museum's open area．BIf you have a chance to go to Finland，you will probably be surprised to find how "foolish" the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example.Taxis in Finland are mostly high•class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometre.You can go anywhere in one，tell the driver to drop you at any place，say that you have some business to attend to，and then walk off without paying your fare.The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety. The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests，but also serve outside diners.Hotel guests have their meals free，so they naturally go to the free dining room to have their meals.The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration cards （登记卡）to the waiter.With such a loose check，you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate.From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly（相应地）.With so many loopholes（漏洞）in everyday life，surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take pretty advantages.But the strange thing is：all the taxipassengers would always come back to pay their fares after they have attended to their business；not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms；and workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do，living in such a society has turned everyone into a real gentleman.4. What does the underlined words "take pretty advantages" in the lastparagraph mean______A. Be ready to help others.B. Make good use of one's friends.C. Be a little ahead of others.D. Gain something at others' expenses.5. According to the passage，the Finnish workers get paid by ______ .A. what they have done for the bossB. their abilities and talentsC. the hour they report to the bossD. the amount of money they want from the boss6. Why are the Finns often considered as real gentlemen？______A. Because they are very rich.B. Because they love to take pretty advantages.C. Because they love work more than money.D. Because they act on good faith in everything.7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage？______A. Life in FinlandB. A society with "foolish"peopleC. What a lifeD. Honest accounts of the FinnsCIndustrial pollution is not only a problem for the countries of Europe and North America but also an extremely serious problem in some developing countries.For these countries，economic growth is a very important aim.They want to introduce industries，and so they put few controls on the industries which cause pollution. Cuba Tao，an industrial town of 85 000 people in Brazil，is an example of the connection between industrial development and pollution.In 1954，Cuba Tao had no industry.Today it has more than twenty large factories，which produce many pollutants（污染物）.The people of the town are suffering from the poisonous matter in their environment and the bad effects can be clearly seen.Birth shortcomings areextremely common.Among children and adults，lung problems are sometimes twelve times more common in Cuba Tao than in other places.It is true that Brazil，like many other countries，has laws against pollution，but these laws are not enforced strictly enough.It is cheaper for companies to take no notice of the laws and pay the fines（罚款）than to buy the expensive equipment that will reduce the pollution.It is clear，therefore，that economic growth is more important to the government than to the health of the workers.However，the responsibility（责任）does not completely lie with the Brazilian government.The example of Cuba Tao shows that international companies are not acting in a responsible way either.A number of the factories in the town are owned by large companies from France，Italy，and the U.S.They are doing things in Brazil that they would not be able to do at home.If they caused the same amount of pollution at home，they would be severely（严厉地）punished or even put out of business.8. Why don't developing countries have strict pollution controls？______A. The new industries they want to introduce do not cause much pollution.B. Pollution is not a serious problem for developing countries.C. They don't realize the balance of nature will be destroyed by some pollutants.D. If they put stricter controls on industry，fewer companies would build newplants in developing countries.9. What is the author's purpose in taking Cuba Tao as an example？______A. To show that industry can develop very fast in developing countries.B. To show that the pollution problem in Brazil is extremely serious.C. To show that industrial growth can cause pollution problems for developingcountries.D. To show that pollution is killing many people and destroying the wholeeconomy of Brazil.10. How is the health of the population of Cuba Tao？______A. There are more heart diseases among people who live near chemicalfactories.B. More people suffer from lung diseases because of poisonous matter.C. Their health is affected by pollutants the same way as that of other Brazilians.D. Babies there are found not as bright as those who live in other places.11. Why do some foreign companies like to set up their plants in Brazil______A. The investment（投资）environment in Brazil is suitable for them.B. They will not be severely punished if they cause pollution in Brazil.C. They can make much money because they do not have to pay Brazilianworkers much.D. They can act in an irresponsible（不负责任的）way in Brazil because there areno pollution laws there.DMy favourite book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain.Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St.Petersburg,Missouri.He's a lively and clever young boy,and he finds himself in many exciting adventures.He runs away with his two friends,Huck Finn and Joe,to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days.With Huck he goes looking for treasure,with Becky he gets lost in a cave.And finally,they find a box of gold.My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead.He decides to go to his own funeral.He hides and watches for a time and then suddenly he appears.Everyone is astonished to see him but they're also pleased to see him alive. Tom is the hero of the story,but there are other important characters.Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him.Becky is pretty with fair hair.Joe is Tom's best friend.And Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.The theme of the story is about children growing up.It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America.Finally,it talks about freedom,social rules and how people are punished for bad behaviour.Why do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book？Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876，but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today.And although it's only a story,Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19th century,so it sounds very real.Today it's thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature.Go on-read it!I know you'll enjoy it,too.12. Where does Tom run away with his two friends______A. To a quiet street.B. To a small town.C. To an island.D. To a forest.13. Who is the bad man in the story？______A. Huck Finn.B. Injun Joe.C. Becky.D. Polly.14. How did people feel when Tom appeared at his own funeral？______A. They were surprised and happy.B. They were surprised and sad.C. They were worried and excited.D. They were frightened and happy.15. The writer writes the article to ______ .A. ask us to read the bookB. tell us how popular the book is todayC. tell us when Mark Twain wrote the storyD. tell us why the story sounds very realIt's an unquestioned truth of modern life：we are starved for time.We try our best to save bits of time here and there.Add it up，and we will finally get to everything we want to do.But this idea has been completely backward（1）______ We build the lives we want，and then time saves itself.Do we really have no time" I don't have time，" often means "It's not a priority（优先事项）." Time is highly flexible.We cannot make more time.However，time will stretch（延展）to accommodate what we choose to put into it.No one will leave the broken water heater aside.So not doing something is not a matter of lacking time；（2）______ Actually，it's a matter of choice.How do we treat our priorities？First，we need to figure out what our priorities are.Actually we may give ourselves a performance review.What three to five things did we do that made it so amazing？Next，we can write them into next year's performance review.We will have a list of six to ten goals we can work on in the next year.（3）______（4）______ Scientists find a really good time to do this is Friday afternoon.Friday afternoon is what an economist might call a "low opportunity cost" time.Most of us are not sitting there on Friday afternoon saying，" But we are willing to think about what those should be.So take a little bit of time Friday afternoon，and make ourselves a three-category priority list：career，relationships，self.It's about looking at the whole of one's time and seeing where the good aspects can go.There is time. （5）______ .And when we focus on what matters，we can build the lives we want in the time we've got.A.it's that I'm too busy for it.B.it's that I don't want to do it.C.When do we plan our priorities？D.Make sure there's time for the important things.E.We don't build the lives we want by saving time.F.Even if we are busy，we have time for what matters.G.And then we need to break these down into doable steps.16.
