AOne Sunday, I took my daughter to the seaside. On arriving at the beach, I saw JoJo, a wealthy man in hotel business. We sat down to chat in an open air cafe while I watched my daughter enjoy herself on the swings (秋千) in front of us.Suddenly, our conversation was interrupted by a stranger, who politely asked permission to speak to me privately. People often want to tell me something about my TV show.We stood a bit away from my table. He said, “I’m James, the father of a 7-year-old girl who’s very sick. The doctors said that if she was treated in the UK, she would probably survive. But I’m poor, so can you help me, pl ease?”I stared into the man’s eyes full of tears and asked how I could help. After I went back, JoJo asked me, “What’s wrong?” I told him about it and he was very sorry for that family.All day I thought about James’s family. I even thought about making a special TV show to raise money for the sick child.On Monday morning, JoJo walked into my office. Actually, JoJo was very busy, and I never imagined he would have the time to come and see me.“Please, call the man and tell him I’ll pay all the expenses for the girl’s treatment,”JoJo said with a cheque in his hand.“I’ve been married for 35 years; I wasn’t lucky enough to have a child. Sometimes I feel lonely. I want to help this child.”I picked up the phone to call James.Now James’s daughter is well and JoJo sometimes goes to visit her. I’m so happy that there are so good people on this earth.1. According to the passage, the writer _____ .A. often go to the beach with his daughterB. is often troubled by his audienceC. was unwilling to help JamesD. met JoJo at the beach by accident2. James turned to the writer for help probably because he _____.A. guessed the writer was rich enough to help himB. wanted the writer to ask JoJo for helpC. thought the writer could help him through TVD. knew the writer was warm-hearted3. Why did JoJo make up his mind to help James? _____.A. To show his love for a child.B. To remove his loneliness by doing something.C. To show his warm heart and kindness.D. To build a relationship with Jame’s family.BSome time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth - so I decided that my approach must be wrong. I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,”he said. “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that. It’s nothing.” Everything was going according to the plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done. “ “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “ You must be crazy,” he said. Then, su ddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chairfor me?’” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But l’ll mend this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?”He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.4. We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer_____.A. was rather impoliteB. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chairC. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chairD. was warmly received5. The underlined word “approach” in the second paragraph means_____.A. plan for dealing with thingsB. decision to sell tingsC. way of doing thingsD. idea of repairing things6. The expression “the penny dropped” means the shopkeeper______.A. changed his mindB. accepted the offerC. saw the writer’s purposeD. decided to help the write r7. From the text, we can learn that the writer was_____.A. honestB. carefulC. funnyD. smartCFear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head,according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting andpumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed.Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said:“Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed.Thus, our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don’t see—and guide whether we see fear.”To further understand this relationship,the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪)to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear.“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’to each ot her to change our feelings and reduce fear,”Dr Garfinkel said.“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders,and also for those who maybe suffering from serious stress disorder.”8. What is the finding of the study? ________.A. Fear is a result of one’s relaxed heartbeat.B. One’s heart affects how he feels fear.C. Fear has something to do with one’s health.D. One’s fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.9. The study was carried out by analyzing ________.A. volunteers’ heartbeats when they saw terrible picturesB. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditionsC. volunteers’ reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scansD. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication10. Which of the following is closest in meaning to“mechanism”in Paragraph 6?A. orderB. treatmentC. machineD. system11. This study may contribute to ________.A. treating anxiety and stress betterB. explaining the cycle of fear and anxietyC. finding the key to the heart-brain communicationD. understanding different fears in our hearts and headsDThe evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on well with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is happier than it has ever been in the past.“We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seem to be about their families,” said one member of the research team.“They’re expected to be rebellious(叛逆的)and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”So it seems that these parents are much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends.“My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-year-old Daniel LaSalle.“I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. When they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.” Susan Cromer, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call talk or discussion. For example, when I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not based on real facts. A researcher explains,“Teenagers were thought to be different from others in a part of time in our social history. But to our surprise, they say they are getting on well with their parents. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled.”【高中生寒假专题】12. The study shows that teenagers don’t want to ______________________.A. share family dutiesB. cause trouble in their familiesC. go boating with their familyD. make family decisions13. Compared with parents of 30 years ago, today’s parents ___________________.A. go to clubs more often with their childrenB. are much stricter with their childrenC. care less about their children’s lifeD. give their children more freedom14. According to the writer, teenage rebellion ____________________.A. may be a wrong opinionB. is common at presentC. always happened in the 1960sD. was caused by changes in families15. Which title best gives the main idea of the passage?A. Discussion in familyB. Teenage education in familyC. Teenage trouble in familyD. Harmony in family根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的选项。
高一英语寒假作业本(有答案)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、D)中,选出选项,并在答题卡上该项涂黑。
(A)Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 am. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase. I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing,” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would wan t my mother treated.”“Oh, you’re such a good man.” She said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(临终医院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器).For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.At dawn, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”We drove in silence to the address she had given me.“How much do I owe you?” she asked.“Nothing.” I said.“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, the re are other passengers,” I answered.Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held me tightly. Our hug ended with her remark, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”21. The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to __________.A. show she was familiar with the cityB. see some places for the last timeC. let the driver earn more moneyD. reach the destination on time22. The taxi driver did not charge the old woman because he __________.A. wanted to do her a favorB. shut off the meter by mistakeC. had received her payment in advanceD. was in a hurry to take other passengers23. What can we learn from the story?A. Giving is always a pleasure.B. People should respect each other.C. An act of kindness can bring people great joy.D. People should learn to appreciate others’concern.(B )Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks’ time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活)if the rain is spread throughout the year, If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand, rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing –-very, very slowly ---as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.24. Many plants may survive in deserts when__________________.A. it is dry all the year roundB. the rain falls only in a few weeksC. there is little rain in a yearD. the rain is spread out in a year25. Sand dunes are formed when___________________.A. sand piles up graduallyB. there is plenty of rain in a yearC. the sea has dried up over the yearsD. pieces of rock get smaller26. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there is____________.A. too much sandB. more sand than beforeC. nothing except sandD. something else besides sand27 It can be learned from the text that in a desert____________.A. there is no rainfall throughout the yearB. life exists in rough conditionsC. all sand dunes are a few feet highD. rocks are worn away only by wind and heat(C)International Studies (BA)Key featuresRecognizes the “global community”(国际社会)Has close connections with practical researchMuch of the teaching is done in small discussion groupsAbout the courseThe course gives you chances to know great power politics between nation states.

It can be inferred that the above two texts are written for the students who _______.A. enjoy research workB. plan to choose coursesC. study in the UKD. are interested in overseas fieldwork(D)Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish choose to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical(判断性的) thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes(过程). Otherwise, you might be controlled bythe ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of education.The word “critical” here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily seen—beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning.Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are curious about life and desire to dig deeper into it, you are a critical thinker. If you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker.Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning are processes of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today’s world: fast foods, instant coffee, and self-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure of intelligence(智力), you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banesh Hoffman, a scientist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein, Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immediately put Hoffman at ease by saying, “Please go slowly. I don’t understand things quickly.”32. Critical thinking is important to us because if we do not think critically, ______.A. it will be hard for us to think naturally and fastB. we might be controlled by other people’s ideasC. we will follow the ideas of others naturallyD. we might be fooled by other people’s ideas33. If you are a critical thinker, you will ______.A. think deeply about different ideasB. trust the reports in the newspapersC. take one view against another viewD. criticize other people for their mistakes34. In the last paragraph, “something new” suggests that ______A. the smarter you are , the faster you do thingsB. the faster you do things, the smarter you becomeC. speed can improve intelligenceD. intelligence is not decided by speed35. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Thinking and Critical ThinkingB. Understanding Critical ThinkingC. Thinking is Natural and HumanD. Thinking Fast Means Intelligence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选项。

You probably see at least one of them every day. If your dad worships(崇拜) the Pittsburgh Stealers, you are likely to grow up being a big fun of that football team. And if your mom loves to read, you just might grow up carrying books everywhere you go, just like she does.Here are four ways you can stay close and build a strong relationship with your parents.1.Spent time together. How much time do you spend just enjoy ing each other’s company(陪伴)? Instead of playing a computer game or watching TV, maybe you can ask your mom and dad to play with you. Go outside together, try a board game, or read a book out.2.Share your feelings and ask for help. Your mom or dad may not know that you are havinga problem. Tell a parent if you are sad or struggling with something.3.Show your care. Some families are always kissing, hugging, and saying “I love you”. It’s important to show that you care for each other. In addition to kisses and hugs, kids and parents show their love by respecting each other, being caring, polite, and thoughtful.4.Whatever you do, do your best! You don’t have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you are turning into such a great kid. Why? Because it lets them know they’re doing a good job.36. The first paragraph mainly tells us___________.A. the Pittsburgh Stealers is a famous football teamB. the kid will like reading if his or her mother likesC. parents influence(影响) their kids greatly.D .we should follow our parents’ hobbies.37. In the third paragraph, the author suggests that ____________.A .you keep your parents company all the timeB. you stay at home with your parentsC .you do something together with your parents.D. you enjoy games when your parents watch TV38. The underlined part “they’re doing a good job” means_____________.A .they have very good jobsB. their jobs can bring the family much moneyC. they make you become a great kidD. they make you find a good job.39. The text intends to(旨在)tell us______________.A .parents are important to everyoneB. how we get along with our parentsC .to respect our parentsD. to share feelings with our parentsBEvery person is unique (独特的) and so are our sleep needs. But in today’s busy worl d, how much sleep should we be getting each night? Research suggests that most healthy adults need seven to nine hours of sleep each night. Children and teens need even more sleep than adults. The following is a breakdown of the recommended (推荐) number of hours of sleep people need by age:INFANTS(0 to 2 months): .........................15 to 18 hours(2-12 months): ...........................14 to 15 hoursCHILDREN(12-18 months): ........................13 to 15 hours(18 months-3 years): .................12 to 14 hours(3-5 years): ................................11 to 13 hours(5-12 years): ...............................9 to 11 hoursTEENS(13-19 years): .............................8.5 to 9.5hoursADULTS(more than 20 years): .................7 to 9 hoursAs children grow, they go through many changes, including changes in sleep. Children and teens, like adults, need a regular sleep and wake timetable, even on weekends. Sleep should follow a relaxing bedtime plan. The bedroom should be cool, dark and quiet. Getting a good night’s rest may become more difficult as they grow older because of more responsibilities (责任) and activities, the influence of TV, computers and so on. However, sleep is still an important part of teens’ health and overall quality of life. So, how do teens measure how much sleep they need? If a teen has trouble staying awake during school, they probably are not getting enough quality sleep.Most sleep problems are treatable. If teens are having trouble in getting enough sleeps they need, it is important to see a doctor or other health experts.404. According to the text, a two to twelve-month-old baby needs ______ hours of sleep each night.A. fifteen to eighteenB. fourteen to fifteenC. eleven to thirteenD. nine to eleven41. For good sleep, the bedroom should be ___________.A. clean and tidyB. wet and noisyC. cool, dark and quietD. warm and quiet42. The __________ a person grows, the less sleep he needs.A. tallerB. olderC. strongerD. thinner43. This article is mainly about _________ .A. sleepB. healthC. ageD. timeCThe year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet (彗星) is heading towards the Earth.Most of it will miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth.On 17 July, a piece four kilometers wide enters the Earth’s atmosphere with a massive explosion. About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic2at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the sea bed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned.Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are alre ady dead, but the north won’t escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. Crops are ruined. The sun won’t be seen again for many years. Wars break out as countries fig ht for food. A year later, no more than 10 million people remain alive.Could it really happen? Will we meet the same end?44. What is mainly described in the passage?A. A historic discovery.B. An event of imagination.C. An event will happen on the earth.D. A scientific adventure.45. When the first piece hits the South Atlantic, it causes .A. an earthquakeB. damages to citiesC. an Earth explosionD. huge waves46. Why can’t the northern half of the earth escape for long?A. Because the land is covered with waterB. Because people there can not live at the temperature of zero.C. Because the light and heat from the sun can not reach the earth.D. Because wars break out among countries .DNearly all the tourists who come to southeast France make a tour to Monaco(摩纳哥), too. Lying near the French-Italian border, Monaco is not part of France, but a separate principality(公国), though it is surrounded by its greatest neighbour.Monaco became a principality in the 16th century after being owned by a family member of a c ertain Italian king. The French and Italians, however, soon came to “protect” it one after another, until 1861, when it became its own master again.Facing the blue Mediterranean(地中海), Monaco is mainly made up of two cities, Monaco, where the palace of the prince(王子)stands, and Monte Carlo(蒙特卡洛), which is a wonderful place for tourists. Every year, around half a million people from all parts of the world come to Monaco, nearly 25 times as much as its population.Believe it or not, Monaco has no soldiers or policemen of its own. Law and order is kept by French police, and French stands for it in its foreign affairs, even the money used in Monaco is franc, too.47. Monaco is _____________ .A. another name for Monte CarloB. mostly visited by French touristsC. surrounded by FranceD. more related to Italy than to France48.

C.One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.D.Poetry is the foundation of all languages and literature courses.3.The underlined phrase “make room” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by “________”.A.build a boothB.provide equipmentC.leave a certain amount of timeD.set aside enough space4.Which is NOT true of the following according to the passage?A.A poem should be discussed or “analyzed”.B.All discussions of poetry are preparations for reading it aloud.C.The writer thinks reading a poem aloud is much less important than “analyzing” it.D.The writer thinks that teachers must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it while teaching poetry.三.阅读填空It is really hard to say which is better than the other,city life or rural life.__1__ Living in a city,people have certain advantages.First,people enjoy various entertainments,both foreign and domestic.Second,there are more cultural activitiesin a city.Third,city people gain access to better information service and educational facilities.__2__The overcrowded population,traffic jam,housing problem,industrial pollution and other issues may result in depression,nervousness and diseases. Life in the village and on the farm is very different from life in the city.Living in the country,people can enjoy living in pure nature.__3__But rural life may not be that perfect.People usually lack cultural activities.They are relatively ill informed.__4__And people miss some golden opportunities of making a fortune.Opportunities for bright young people are greater in cities,so the chances of their children being admitted to colleges are slim.Obviously,whatever life they lead,people can never feel perfectly satisfied,for conveniences and inconveniences always coexist.People wish that they could enjoy the pleasures of both lives.With the rapid economic development,nowadays city people can relax themselves in the country during vacation.__5__A.Each of them has its advantages and disadvantages.B.Things go fairly slowly there.C.Villagers and farmers are likely to show a great deal of interest in all their neighbors.D.They lead a simple and trouble free life.E.However,problems exist.F.And country people have chances to experience city lifestyle when they come to cities.G.City life is obviously much more comfortable.1.________ 2.________ 3.________ 4.________5.________【答案解析】寒假作业7一.单项填空1.D [该题考查近义词辨析。
河北安平中学实验部高一年级英语学科寒假作业2019年2月8日第一部分阅读理解(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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
ASome idiomatic phrases in English, often used in both spoken and written language, are very confusing! They don’t even make sense when you first see them. However, using one of these phrases correctly when speaking or writing to an English speaker is very impressive and shows that you are comfortable with the language. Here are some wonderful and interesting British idioms. Use them wisely.When pigs fly!This expression is one of my favorites and I use it all the time. It is used primarily when speaking, meaning that something is extremely unlikely or impossible. For example, “I will forgive him when pigs fly!” “When do you th ink you will get a gym membership, Lucy?” “When pigs fly!”A penny for your thoughts?This question is used in a situation where someone appears thoughtful or is very quiet seeming lost in thought. But remember that you don’t actually have to pay them a pe nny if they do tell you what is going on! For example, “You’ve been a bit quiet this evening, Pete. A penny for your thoughts?”It’s the bee’s kneesThe phrase dates back to the 1920s, and refers to an extraordinary person, thing, idea, and so on. For exam ple, “Try this chocolate. It’s the bee’s knees.”To feel a bit under the weatherI use this expression in many different situations but most use it to refer to feeling ill, or unwell. You would not use this phrase if you were feeling extremely unwell. It is only for those times when you are feeling a little ill or suffering from something slightly like a cold or a cough. However, this can also be used to refer to feeling emotionally low.21. What will you say if you think something is special?A. When pigs fly!B. A penny for your thoughts?C. It’s the bee’s kneesD. To feel a bit under the weather.22. Which of the following sentence can replace “A penny for your thoughts?”A. What can I do for you?B. What are you thinking about?C. How are you feeling?D. How do you like it?23. Why does the author write the passage?A. To introduce some useful idioms.B. To show how to remember idioms.C. To tell people the importance of idioms.D. To arouse the interest in idioms.BPeople diet to look more attractive. Fish diet to avoid being beaten up, thrown out of their social group, and getting eaten as a result. That is the fascinating conclusion of the latest research into fish behavior by a team of Australian scientists.The research team has discovered that subordinate fish voluntarily diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors. “In studying gobies we noticed that only the largest two individuals, a male and female, had breeding(繁殖) rights within the group, ”explains Marian Wong. “All ot her group members are non-breeding females, each being 5–10% smaller than its next largest competitor. We wanted to find out how they maintain this precise size separation.”The reason for the size difference was easy to see. Once a subordinate fish grows to within 5–10% of the size of its larger competitor,it causes a fight which usually ends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group. More often than not, the evicted fish is then eaten up.It appeared that the smaller fish were keeping themselves small in order to avoid challenging the boss fish. Whether they did so voluntarily,by restraining how much they ate, was not clear. The research team decided to do an experiment. They tried to fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see what happened. To their surprise,the gobies simply refused the extra food they were offered,clearly preferring to remain small and avoid fights, over having a feast.The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individuals keep their position in a group. Previously it was thought that large individualssimply used their weight and size to threaten their subordinates and take more of the food for themselves, so keeping their competitors small.While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious, Dr. Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate animals is important to understanding how hierarchical (等级的) societies remain stable.The research has proved the fact that voluntary dieting is a habit far from exclusi ve to humans. “As yet, we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in nature,” the researchers comment. “Data on human dieting suggests that, while humans generally diet to improve health or increase attractiveness, rarely does it improve long term health and males regularly prefer females that are fatter than the females’ own ideal.”24. When a goby grows to within 5–10% of the size of its larger competitor, it_______.A. faces dangerB. has breeding rightsC. eats its competitorD. leaves the group itself25. The underlined words “the evicted fish” in Paragraph 3 refer to _______.A. the fish beaten upB. the fish found outC. the fish fattened upD. the fish driven away26. The experiment showed that the smaller fish_______.A. fought over a feastB. went on diet willinglyC. preferred some extra foodD. challenged the boss fish27. What is the text mainly about?A. Fish dieting and human dieting.B. Dieting and health.C. Human dieting.D. Fish dieting.CJohn Steinbeck once said, “All American believe they are born fishermen. For a man to admit to a distaste in fishing would be like speaking publicly against mother-love or hating moonlight”.I can’t say I’m the biggest John St einbeck fan. Actually, the only thing I can ever remember reading by him was “The Pearl” when I was in middle school, butI couldn’t agree more with the man when it comes to fishing. When I am on a boat in the middle of the lay Lake, fishing off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon or catching rainbow trout in the Shoshone River of Wyoming. Fishing is my life.According to the American Sports Fishing Association, the fishing industry brings in more than $ 116 billion per year from fishermen across the country.Though a beautiful picture to imagine, fishing is much more than that. Fishing is a way of life from many people and a way to escape everyday stress. Being a fisherman makes me a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life. Even President Bush can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when the jobs gets too stressful.I can remember fishing with my grandfather when I was 5 years old on his boat at Lake Michel. Although I didn’t understand what I was doing, I did know that my grandfather was happy and that made me happy. Since then I’ve spent the past 16 years on the rivers and lakes of Alabama.After days of practice, before and after work, I slowly developed an understanding of fishing. My boss, Ric Horst, took me back to the Shoshone, and I managed to bring in a 19-inch cutthroat trout. Fishing with Ric was a life-changing experience for me. He not only showed me how to fish correctly, but also told me how fishing could be a way to escape your problems.Since then, prime-time season seems to take forever to arrive.Now, with the ending of February and beginning of March is sight, the excitement of heading out to Lake Tus caloosa or Lake Lurleen before classes and catching something has finally returned.28.What John Steinbeck said in the first paragraph implies that ______A.American are believed to be the offspring of fishermen.B.it is unthinkable for an American to admit his dislike of fishing.C.All American are expert at fishing.D.Those who dislike fishing would not love their mother.29.The writer came to understand the real meaning of fishing ______.A.When he was reading “The Pearl” by John SteinbeckB.When he went fishing with his grandfather at Lake MitchellC.After he had spent 16 years on the rivers and lakes of AlabamaD.After he went fishing with his boss, Ric Horst on the Shoshone30.According to the author, ______.A.People can get to know VIPs when fishingB.People can smooth away all the troubles by fishingC.Fishing is a way of communicationD.Fishing is a way of life for most American people31.What is the purpose of the writing?A.To describe the writer’s experience and understanding of fishing.B.To explain the reason why so many Americans like fishing.C.To make others understand the industry of fishing.D.To express his opinions about fishing in different time of the year.DA small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That’s the finding of a study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce of salt water fish per day compared to those who never ate fish.The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific support to the long held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths occurring from heart attacks each year. But previous research has shown that the level of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish. At the start of the study, average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day, with more men eating lean fish than fatty fish.During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol(胆固醇)levels.32.The passage is mainly about _________.A.the high incidence of heart disease in some countriesB.the changes in people’s dietC.the effect of fish eating on people’s healthD.the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures33.We can infer from the passage that there are fewer heart disease deaths ________.A.in countries of the yellow-skin raceB.in highly-developed countriesC.in the countries with high consumption of fishD.in the countries with good production of fish34.The phrase “this relationship” in paragraph 6 refers to the connection between _________ and the level of heart disease.A.the amount of fish eaten B.regular fish-eatingC.the kind of fish eaten D.people of different areas35.From the passage we know the author is most probably ______.A.a heart doctor B.a science researcherC.a supporter of healthy eating D.a university student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。

(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AOne day an American called Simon went to London to visit his friend, Rick. Rick told him that his flat was on the first floor. When he arrived, Simon went straight to the first floor of the building. But he was told that there was no Rick on that floor. Do you know why?In fact, the British call the first floor of a building the ground floor. The floor above the ground floor is the first floor, which Americans would call the second floor.The story shows that there are a few culture differences between Britain and America, though the British and Americans both speak English.The British usually hide their feelings. They seldom start a conversation with strangers. For example, on the train the British often spend their time reading newspapers or books. But Americans are quite different. They're more active and easier to talk with.The British and Americans may use different terms for many things.The British usually use football, rubber and post while Americans prefer to use soccer, eraser and mail.21. Simon went to London to____.A. visit his friendB. spend his holidayC. study EnglishD. have a meeting22. According to the passage, the British usually spend theirtime____ on the train.A. playing cardsC. doing some reading B. talking loudlyD. singing and dancing23. What's the best title for the passage?A. Differences in cultureC. Information abroad B. Simon's funny storyD. Hiding the feelingsBNobody is sure where and when the expression "apple-pie order" began. Some say that Scottish and English writers used the expression a long time ago. Others say it was first used in the northeastern American states known as New England. The housewives of New England cut their apples in even slices. Then they filled pie pans with them in an organized way, row(排)upon row. As one writer said, the women of New England loved to have everything in its place. This perhaps explains why it generally is believed that the expression "apple-pie order" began in New England.Another old expression, "apple of discord", comes from ancient mythology(神话),however. The myth says that all the gods and goddesses were sitting around the table to celebrate the marriage of Thetis and Peleus. One of the goddesses-Discord-was a troublemaker. She threw away a golden apple on the table to be given as a prize to the most beautiful goddess.At one time, the tomato was called a love apple. That was a mistake. This is how the mistake happened: In the sixteenth century, Spain brought the tomato from South America after Spanish explorers had landed there. Spain then sold the tomato to Morocco. Italian traders carried it on to Italy. The Italian name for the tomato was "pomo di Moro"-apple of the Moors. When French growers brought it in from Italy, they thought "di Moro" meant"d'amour"-the French word for love. And so "pomo di Moro" became the apple of love.People believe many things about the apple. One belief is that it has great power of keeping people healthy. A very common expression is "an apple a day keeps the doctor away. "Another belief is based on fact. The expression is "one rotten apple spoils the barrel. "When an apple begins to go bad, it ruins all the other apples around it in the container. The expression has come to mean that one bad person in a group can cause everyone to act bad.24. Which of the following can we know about the phrase "apple-pie order"?A. Everyone is sure of where it began.B. No one knows for sure where and when it began.C. It began in New England.D. It has been put into use recently.25. What's the meaning of "apple of discord"?A. Cause of disagreement.B. Everything in good order.C. Everything in agreement.D. Situation of danger.26. What's the purpose of the third paragraph?A. To show how the tomato was brought in from south America.B. To show us a mistaken idea.C. To tell us a love story about apple.D. To explain how the tomato was called the apple of love.27. Which of the following expressions is about health?A. One rotten apple spoils the barrel.C. Apple of discord.B. Apple-pie order.D. An apple a day keeps the doctor away.CAlthough English is not as old as Chinese, it is spoken by manypeople around the world every day. English speakers are alwayscreating new words, and we are often able to know where most words come from.Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America form Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They did not speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round pieces of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans did not understandthe question and answered, “We come from Hamburg.” One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round pieces of beef like those which the men from Hamburg ate. Then he put each between two pieces of bread and started selling them. Such bread came to be called “hamburgers” Today “hamburgers” are sold in many countries around the world.Whether this story is true or not, it is certainly interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting, too. This reason, for most English words, can be found in any large English dictionary.28.Hamburg is A. a kind of foodB. a round piece of beefC. the name of a villageD. a city in Germany29. We know from the story that______________.A. few Americans like hamburgersB. hamburgers were made by GermansC. hamburgers are made with hamD. hamburgers were first sold about a century ago30. Which of the following can often be found in any large English dictionary based on para3?A. Where all the words come fromB. Where those Germans came fromC. The reason why a word has a certain meaningD. The reason why English is spoken around the world31. According to the story, the word “hamburger” comes from_______.。

高一英语寒假作业(七)第一部分阅读理解(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。
并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.ABEIJING—With a series of measures being adopted to control price rise, the Chinese government is confident of keeping prices at a reasonable level, Premier Wen Jiabao said Sunday morning, asking people to remain confident.“I believe we can keep prices at a reasonable level through our efforts. Asa major leader of the government, I have the responsibility and I have the confidence,too.” He made the remarks while answering a listener’s question during a radio broadcast by China National Radio.Steps taken in the past month, including price controls to curb speculation(抑制投机) and monetary tightening(货币紧缩), had started to produce results, he said. The government plans to build 10 million units of affordable housing in 2011, up from this year’s target of 5.8 million.China will also increase efforts to curb speculation in the housing market, mainly through monetary policies and stricter use of land, Wen said, without giving details.Wen said the country had a good agricultural supply base which gave the government confidence that it could stabilize prices.In a bid to control inflation, the government has also increased the bank reserve requirement ratio six times and lifted interest rate twice this year, he added.Further, authorities have introduced many measures including cutting fees for transportation of agriculture products and controlling food price rise strictly. The overall price level, especially of major consumer goods, has now begun to drop, Wen said.“The fundamental way to stabilize pri ces is to achieve a balance of supply and demand, which requ ires continuous development of agriculture,” said premier, adding that the central government has worked out measures to increase agricultural production.1. Premier Wen Jiabao asked people to remain confident because ______.A. many measures have been taken to control priceB. as a major leader of the government, he had the confidenceC. he wanted to comfort themD. China will increase efforts to control price2. The key to keeping prices at a reasonable level lies in ______.A. taking more strict measuresB. the leaders’ confidenceC. achieve a balance of supply and demandD. having a good agricultural supply base3. The best title of the passage should be ______.A. More efforts on controlling price riseB. Chinese government is confident of controlling price riseC. Major consumer goods’ price droppedD. The bank lifted interest rate.BIn ancient Japan, if you saved someone’s life, they would make it their duty to spend the rest of their life serving you. Nowadays, if you rescue someone’s story, he or she will feel the same kind of gratitude (感激).It happens all the time. Someone in a group is telling a story and, just before their big point, BOOM! There’s an interruption. Someone new joins the group, a waiter with a plate of biscuits comes over, or a baby starts crying. Suddenly everyone’s attention turns to the new arrival, the food on the plate, or the “charming” little child. Nobody is aware of the interruption — except the speaker. They forget all about the fact that the speaker hasn’t made his or her point.Or you’re all sitting around the living room and someone is telling a joke. Suddenly, just before their big punch line (妙语), little Johnny drops a dish or the phone rings. After the crash, everyone talks about little Johnny’s carelessness. After the call, the subject turns to the upcoming marriage or medical operation of the caller. Nobody remembers the great punch line got unfinished — except the joke teller. When it’s you entertaining everyone at a restaurant, have you ever noticed how you can almost set your clock by the waiter coming to take everyone’s order just before your funny punch line?Most joke and story tellers are too shy to say, after the interruption, “Now, as I was saying …” Instead, they’ll spend the rest of the evening feeling bad they didn’t get to finish. Here’s where you come in. Rescue them with the technique I call “Lend a Helping Tongue.”Watch the gratitude in the storyteller’s eyes as he stabilizes where his story sunk and he sails off again toward the center of attention. His expression and the appreciation of your consideration by the rest of the group are often reward enough. You are even more fortunate if you can rescue the story of someone who can hire you, promote you, buy from you, or otherwise lift your life. Big winners have excellent memories. When you do them subtle favors like Lend a Helping Tongue, they find a way to pay you back.1. Very often, a storyteller cannot make his point because _________.A. people are more interested in food than his storyB. many guests bring their babies to the partyC. he is interrupted by something unexpectedD. his story is easily forgotten by the listeners2. From Paragraph 3, we know that when someone is telling a joke, _________.A. something bad will surely happen just before their punch lineB. listeners’ attention is often drawn to something elseC. the only person really interested in the joke is the joke tellerD. the waiter knows when to take everyone’s order3. How can we help the joke and story tellers when they are interrupted?A. By giving them a chance to finish.B. By comforting them to make them happy.C. By going on telling the story for them.D. By teaching them some useful techniques.4. What is the text mainly about?A. People should learn how to take turns in a conversation.B. We can win someone’s heart by getting him back to his story.C. Telling jokes will make you the center of attention.D. It is impolite to cut in on someone’s talk.CGeena David knew she wanted to be a movie star when she was very young. She was not sure what gave her the idea, but she wanted t o look like a movie star. “I have a lot of pictures from my childhood of me wearing sunglasses,” she says. “I used to wear them to watch TV.”Early movie actors started wearing sunglasses not because they looked good, but because their eyes hurt. The lights used on movie sets were extremely bright and could cause a painful problem known as “Klieg eyes”. It was named after the Klieg brothers who invented the lights. Actors wore sunglasses to give their eyes a rest. But when movie stars began wearing their sunglasses in public, they quickly became a must.Eventually actors started wearing sunglasses in their movies as well as on the street. Audrey Hephburn wore ultra-cool Ray-Ban sunglasses in the 1961 movie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s. As a result, Ray-Ban sunglasses started to appear more and more in the movies. In 1979, Ray-Ban “Wayfarers” were worn by Jake and Elwood in The Blue Brothers. Tom Cruise wore Ray-Ban “Aviator” su nglasses in the 1986 hit, Top Gun. Then in 1997, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones made Ray-Ban “Predator” sunglasses famous in Men in Black.Of course sunglasses aren’t just a fashion statement. The main reason to wear sunglasses is to protect our eyes against UV radiation. UV radiation can damage our eyes, so people now choose their sunglasses carefully. But you don’t have to give up style for safety. The choice of frames and lenses available these days is huge. So you can protect your eyes and still be the coolest person on the beach. 1.What is mainly discussed in this passage?A.Some movie stars. B.How to protect eyesC.The sunglasses wearing. D.How to be a movie star2.Why did Geena David like to wear sunglasses?A.She was a movie star.B.She wanted to follow a movie star.C.Wearing sunglasses was good for her eyes.D.It was good to wear sunglasses when watching TV.2.Early actors’ eyes hurt because ______.A.they wore sunglassesB.they went out in the sun too muchC.the lights on movie sets were too brightD.their scripts were written in very small writing4.We may know from this passage that ______.A.Audrey Hephburn was a famous film starB.Ray-Ban is the name of sunglasses makerC.Sunglasses made Top Gun the hit in 1986D.Men in Black must be an advertisement of sunglassesDFinding true happiness is a universal aspiration (渴望). We all want it, but can we all have it? Genuine happiness is written all over our faces when we are truly contented, and, likewise, a forced smile does nothing to hide underlying sadness.Believing that everyone can create their own lasting joy, Matthieu Richard has been declared the Happiest Man in the World. Richard earned his “happiest man” statusafter a series of laboratory tests in 2004. Richard has shared his thoughts on happiness with a world wide audience. As an experienced speaker, he has explained his insights into happiness to everyone, from students to corporate groups. Looking inwards to find joy rather than relying on outer conditions, he believes, is the way to achieve well-being.“It’s quite clear t hat the outer conditions are not enough. The way we interpret those outer conditions in our inner experience is what determines either a sense of well-being or misery. We love to go jogging for fitness and we do all kinds of things to remain beautiful, yet we spend surprisingly little time taking care of what matters most: the way our minds function. It’s the essential thing that determines the quality of our experience.” Besides this, Richard stresses that it is not what’s happening around us that makes us unhappy, but rather the way we choose to react to it.The pursuit of happiness is becoming a modern obsession(痴迷). As life becomes more complex, our ability to process our reactions to various outside influences comes under strain. “Genuine happiness” he says, “doesn’t mean pleasant feelings one after the other. It’s more like a series of qualities that we can develop as skills —like openness, genuine love, compassion, inner strength and inner peace.”1. Richard has been declared the Happiest Man in the World _______.A. because he has shared his thoughts on happiness with a worldwide audienceB. after he has explained his insights into happiness to everyoneC. after a series of laboratory testsD. because he tries his best to achieve happiness and well-being2. According to Richard, what is the best way to achieve well-being?A. Interpreting those outer conditions in our inner experience.B. Looking inwards to find joy rather than relying on outer conditions.C. Spending little time taking care of what matters most.D. Reacting to various outside influences in the modern world.3. What determines the quality of our experience?A. The way our minds react to outer conditions.B. Insights into happiness that we hold.C. The constant pursuit of happiness in our life.D. Those outer conditions affecting our happiness.4. How can we pursuit happiness?A. Go jogging for happiness.B. Do everything to remain beautiful.C. Make sure that our minds are functioning normally.D. Develop necessary qualities.第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)【题文】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。

It all started three years ago, when Campbell asked his parents if they could buy Christmas presents for kids in hospital. They were touched by his kindness, but told him that buying so many toys would be too costly. He is one of nine children, and buying presents for all of them was already a pretty expensive affair for the parents.Campbell didn’t let a simple “no” discourage him from bringing a bit of joy to kids going through tough times, so he decided to make the presents himself. It took the 9-year-old boy five hours to create his first stuffed (填充的) toy. However after three years of practice, he is now able to put one together in just an hour.“I was blown away by the first bear,” his mother said. “Overly impressed but not surprised at his determination to teach himself.” The successful experimentonly inspired Campbell Remess to become better at sewing, and challenged himself to create one stuffed toy per day and donate them to sick children struggling in the hospital. Project 365 by Campbell was born. Over the last three years, Campbell Remess has created over 800 stuffed toys for sick children.Campbell sends his toys to children all over the world, and still visits the Royal Hobart Hospital in his home city of Hobart, Tasmania, to personally gift toy animals to sick kids there and loves to see the reaction on t heir faces. “They smile and some hug me. It makes their whole day better,” he says.“Campbell is just wired really differently. He looks at sadness and tries to turn it upside down,” his mother says. “He’s not a quitter—I only see bigger and brighter thing s for him.”25. Why did Campbell’s parents refuse his request?A. They thought that was ridiculous.B. They wished him to depend on himself.C. They were on a tight budget.D. They hoped he could share his things with others.26. What desire drove Campbell to make toys for sick children?A. Bringing happiness to them.B. Showing kindness to them.C. Encouraging them to treasure health.D. Proving to them everyone has creativity.27. What can we learn about Campbell from the text?A. He is planning to set up Project 365.B. He sends toys to those who can’t afford one.C. He made the first toy with his mother’s help.D. He is determined and refuses to give up.CIt is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human life whether in the United States or the Amazon Rain Forest. Without it we would not have grown into primates (灵长类动物). Or we would probably still be struggling to sharpen a bronze tool while crawling around on four legs in search of meat. Without competition, Columbus w ouldn’t have discovered America and Edison would never haveinvented the light bulb.Friendship, like all relationship between two people, involves competition. It isn’t competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prize. Perhaps the ecological definition —the simultaneous (同时的) demand by two or more organisms for limited environmental resources, such as nutrients, living space, or light — better explain it.As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws, similar to a shortened version of Darwin’s theory of evolution, overpopulation, and competition. There is an abundance of high school students and to distinguish them, ranking and categorizing (分类) take place. In high school, friendships learn to co-exist with competition even though at times the relationship is rough. In fact, in some circumstances, competition is too much of a burden for a friendship to bear, causing it to fall apart. College admission is the final high school objective. Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a student’s fate is determined not only by these achievements, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying to achieve a similar recognition.Nevertheless, by necessity, competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life. It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to school work. A healthy, friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy (妒忌) can tear friendships apart. Yet, despite all this, without competition, we would be lost.28. What does the ecological definition mainly explain?A. How friends compete with each other.B. How to win the competition.C. What the result of competition is.D. What competition exactly is.29. According to the writer, what causes the high school students to compete?A. The number of them is too large.B. Friendship is a burden for them.C. They know the laws of nature well.D. They are divided into different groups.30. Which best describes the relationship of friendship and competition?A. Friendship is always based on competition.B. The degree of competition is vital to friendship.C. Competition is terribly harmful to friendship.D. Competition is a result of lost friendship.31. What does the author think of “competition”?A. The results of competition are out of control.B. Competition becomes fiercer in high school.C. Competition is certain to happen at schools.D. Friendship is not as important as competition at schools.DI look around and can’t recognize where I am. It seems familiar but distant.I see my friends gathered by a stage where music is playing and I run over. As I begin running towards them, they become further and further away. I keep calling for them, but no one hears me. I start hearing a distant alarm-like sound and I am transported away. I woke up in a daze (茫然) sitting in my bed.“Oh, it was only a dream,” I said to myself. I have always had vivid and intense dreams. Sometimes, it feels like I haven’t even slept because I have b een living out my dreams during my sleep.Today, dreaming is being studied even more than ever. Some say that dreams are how your receptors (受体) make sense of random thoughts while you sleep. Some say that you can’t dream of a face you have never seen befo re, so everyone you see in your dreams you have at least laid eyes on at one time or another.Other people think dreams are ways of expressing stress or internal feelings you may be experiencing. A lot of people say that they have dreams about being chased (追逐).A common interpretation of the “being chased” dream is that you are feeling threatened. Some dream interpretation sites say you should try to reflect on what or who is chasing you to get a better idea of what is making you feel this way.Another dream that is often experienced is flying. This dream has a much more positive interpretation, which is that you are feeling free or have broken out of a bad situation such as a relationship turned sour or a job you hate.Unfortunately, if you even remember your dreams at all, you forget half of your dream within five minutes of waking up and within 10 minutes, you usually forget 90 percent of it.Dreamologists, people who devote time to the study and interpretation of dreams, suggest if you want to try to remember and study your dreams you should keep a journal beside your bed and jot down what you dreamt as soon as you wake up so you can reflect on it later.32. Dreams of “being chased” occur because ________.A. you are feeling threatenedB. you just quit a job you hateC. your friends are far away from you when in needD. your receptors is always thinking while you sleep33. Why should we keep a journal beside your bed to reflect on dreams?A. We need to chase those people who appeared in our dreams.B. We usually forget 90 percent of dreams within 10 minutes.C. It can help us get out of the intense dreams.D. It can help us sleep well without dreams.34. Where can we read this article?A. In a poster.B. In a physics book.C. In a traveling magazine.D. In a science newspaper.35. What is the best title for the passage?A. Why am I Always DreamingB. How is My Dream CreatedC. What do My Dreams MeanD.

妨努州忍劲市鸡驱学校课标高一英语寒假作业7第一卷第二阅读理解〔共两节,总分值60分〕第一节〔共15小题;每题3分,总分值45分〕阅读以下短文,从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C、和D〕中,选出最正确选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AAll over the world people enjoy sports, Sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live longer.Many people like to watch others play games. They buy tickets or turn on their TVs to watch the games. Often they get very excited when "their" player or team wins.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for(参加) them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. What fun it is to jump into a pool or lake, whether in China, Egypt or Italy! And think of people in cold countries. Think how many love to skate or ski in Japan, Norway or Canada.Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time. Water-skiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game together they often become good friend s. Sports help to train a person’s character. One learnsto fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace(胜不骄,败不馁).21. Why do some people get excited when they watch a game? Because _______.A. they win the gameB. they get the good newsC. their favourite team winsD. they can’t help themselves22. Which of the sports has a long history?A. Water-skiing.B. Basketball.C. Volleyball.D. Long jump.23. Why do people from different countries often become friends after a game together?Because____________.A. they train their character in the gameB. they are friendly to each otherC. they understand each otherD. they help each otherBToday just as technology changed the face of industry, farms have undergone an “agricultural revolution〞. On the farm of today, machines provide almost all the power.One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer. A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently. The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant, how much livestock (家畜) to buy, when to sell their products, and how much profit they can expect. Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers. Programsare being written for hog producers, grain farmers, potato farmers, and dairy farmers. In the future, farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs. Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm, students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses. There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future. While the old-time farm depended on horse power, and modern farms depend on machine power, farms of the future will depend on computer power.Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot, a real “mechanized hired hand〞 (机械化雇工) that will be able to move and, in some ways, think like a human being. Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make startling changes in farming before the end of the century. Unlike farmers of the present, farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them. Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear sheep, drive tractors, and harvest fruit. Even complex jobs will be done by robots. For example, in order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the barn, then connect them to the milking machines, watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished. In the future, this will all be done by robots. In addition, when the milking is completed, the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure. The complete mobilization of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.7. According to the passage, computers can not help farmers decide _______.A. how much money they can earn from their productsB. whether to plant a certain kind of cropC. how much livestock to raiseD. when to sell their products8. Which of the following statements is true?A. Farmers in the future will depend totally on computers.B. Both computers and robots have been in use on today’s farms.C. Farmers mainly use machines on their farms at present.D. Students at agricultural colleges can do nothing without the help of computers on today’sfarms.9. According to the engineers, _______will be done by robots in the near future.A. most of the farm workB. milking cowsC. all farm workD. some farm work10. What is the best title for the whole passage?A. Computer, Farmers’ Best FriendB. Farmers in The FutureC. The Agricultural RevolutionD. Computers and RobotsCGetting around in Canada is fairly easy. Most cities have urban transportation systems, including buses, streetcars, and trains, and some of the larger cities also have subways.You can board these systems at regular stops along their routes. Some let you pay with cash while others require tickets. If you don’t have a ticket for the bus, you must pay with the correct amount of money. This is because the driver does not carry any change. If you plan to stay in a city for a long time, you may want to buy a monthly pass or a package of tickets to save money. You can buy subway tickets at any subway station.If you have to take several buses or subways for a single trip, you do not need to pay money each time. Simply ask the driver for a transfer (换乘) ticket, or take one from the machines on the subway platform.If you are not sure where to board the bus or the streetcar, just ask someone or follow the crowd. People can usually only board at the front of the bus where you show your pass to the driver. When using public transportation, Canadians line up. First come, first serve, is a common approach to many activities in Canada, and it is considered to be extremely rude to cut in any line.Maps of routes and schedules are usually available from the public transit (运输) company in your area, and there is also a telephone information line. You may ask someone for the name of the transit company in your area, and then look it up in the telephone book.53. What is this passage mainly about?A. How to use public transportation in Canada.B. How to save money when traveling.C. Where to find subways in larger cities.D. How public transit companies work.54. If you pay the bus fare in cash, _____.A. you may be given some changeB. you can exchange money with the driverC. it might cost you a little moreD. you must have the exact amount of money55. By buying a monthly pass or a package of tickets, you can ______.A. take a bus whenever you wantB. go wherever you likeC. save moneyD. find comfortable seats56. If you have to change subway lines on a single trip, _____.A. you have to pay each timeB. you should buy another ticket from the machineC. you must ask for the driver’s permissionD. you just need to pay onceDFlorence Nightingale was born on May 12th, 1820 in Florence, Italy. She was born to a wealthy and well-educated English family. When she was young she became interested in caring for the sick and wanted to work in nursing, but her parents would not allow her to be a nurse. They expected her to get marr ied and live a traditional woman’s life.However, Nightingale had made up her mind, so her parents had to give in. She traveled throughout Europe during her early years and learned many languages including Greek, Latin, French and Italian. She also visited many of the hospitals in these cities and took many notes of the sanitary (卫生的) conditions in these hospitals. In 1849, she traveled to Europe to study the European hospital system. In 1854, she worked as a manager at the Hospital for In-valid Gentlewomen in London.The following year, the Crimean War (克里米亚战争) broke out. Florence led 38 nurses and traveled to Scutari to help the wounded soldiers. When they arrived there they found the hospital conditions were very poor. Many of the wounded did not have beds and were lying onthe ground. Florence and her nurses managed to improve the conditions. Florence also cared aboutthe social welfare of the soldiers and would visit them during the night after every-one elsehad gone to sleep. She was referred to as "The Lady with the Lamp".In 1860, she founded the Nightingale School for nurses at St Thomas’Hospitalin London. Once the nurses were trained, they were sent to hospitals all over Britain where they introduced what they had learnt. Nightingale’s concerns for sanitation, military (队的)healthand hospital planning practices are still in existence today. She died on the 13th August 1910.46. What are we told in the passage?A.

河北安平中学实验部高一年级英语学科寒假作业2019年2月8日第一部分阅读理解(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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
ASome idiomatic phrases in English, often used in both spoken and written language, are very confusing! They don’t even make sense when you first see them. However, using one of these phrases correctly when speaking or writing to an English speaker is very impressive and shows that you are comfortable with the language. Here are some wonderful and interesting British idioms. Use them wisely.When pigs fly!This expression is one of my favorites and I use it all the time. It is used primarily when speaking, meaning that something is extremely unlikely or impossible. For example, “I will forgive him when pigs fly!” “When do you think you will get a gym membership, Lucy?” “When pigs fly!”A penny for your thoughts?This question is used in a situation where someone appears thoughtful or is very quiet seeming lost in thought. But remember that you don’t actually have to pay them a pe nny if they do tell you what is going on! For example, “You’ve been a bit quiet this evening, Pete. A penny for your thoughts?”It’s the bee’s kneesThe phrase dates back to the 1920s, and refers to an extraordinary person, thing, idea, and so on. For exam ple, “Try this chocolate. It’s the bee’s knees.”To feel a bit under the weatherI use this expression in many different situations but most use it to refer to feeling ill, or unwell. You would not use this phrase if you were feeling extremely unwell. It is only for those times when you are feeling a little ill or suffering from something slightly like a cold or a cough. However, this can also be used to refer to feeling emotionally low.21. What will you say if you think something is special?A. When pigs fly!B. A penny for your thoughts?C. It’s the bee’s kneesD. To feel a bit under the weather.22. Which of the following sentence can replace “A penny for your thoughts?”A. What can I do for you?B. What are you thinking about?C. How are you feeling?D. How do you like it?23. Why does the author write the passage?A. To introduce some useful idioms.B. To show how to remember idioms.C. To tell people the importance of idioms.D. To arouse the interest in idioms.BPeople diet to look more attractive. Fish diet to avoid being beaten up, thrown out of their social group, and getting eaten as a result. That is the fascinating conclusion of the latest research into fish behavior by a team of Australian scientists.The research team has discovered that subordinate fish voluntarily diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors. “In studying gobies we noticed that only the largest two individuals, a male and female, had breeding(繁殖) rights within the group, ”explains Marian Wong. “All ot her group members are non-breeding females, each being 5–10% smaller than its next largest competitor. We wanted to find out how they maintain this precise size separation.”The reason for the size difference was easy to see. Once a subordinate fish grows to within 5–10% of the size of its larger competitor,it causes a fight which usually ends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group. More often than not, the evicted fish is then eaten up.It appeared that the smaller fish were keeping themselves small in order to avoid challenging the boss fish. Whether they did so voluntarily,by restraining how much they ate, was not clear. The research team decided to do an experiment. They tried to fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see what happened. To their surprise,the gobies simply refused the extra food they were offered,clearly preferring to remain small and avoid fights, over having a feast.The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individuals keep their position in a group. Previously it was thought that large individuals simply used their weight and size to threaten their subordinates and take more of the food for themselves, so keeping their competitors small.While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious, Dr. Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate animals is important to understanding how hierarchical (等级的) societies remain stable.The research has proved the fact that voluntary dieting is a habit far from exclusive to humans. “As yet, we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in nature,” the researchers comment. “Data on human dieting suggests that, while humans generally diet to improve health or increase attractiveness, rarely does it improve long term health and males regularly prefer females that are fatter than the females’ own ideal.”24. When a goby grows to within 5–10% of the size of its larger competitor, it_______.A. faces dangerB. has breeding rightsC. eats its competitorD. leaves the group itself25. The underlined words “the evicted fish” in Paragraph 3 refer to _______.A. the fish beaten upB. the fish found outC. the fish fattened upD. the fish driven away26. The experiment showed that the smaller fish_______.A. fought over a feastB. went on diet willinglyC. preferred some extra foodD. challenged the boss fish27. What is the text mainly about?A. Fish dieting and human dieting.B. Dieting and health.C. Human dieting.D. Fish dieting.CJohn Steinbeck once said, “All American believe they are born fishermen. For a man to admit to a distaste in fishing would be like speaking publicly against mother-love or hating moonlight”.I can’t say I’m the biggest John St einbeck fan. Actually, the only thing I can ever remember reading by him was “The Pearl” when I was in middle school, but I couldn’t agree more with the man when it comes to fishing. When I am on a boat in the middle of the lay Lake, fishing off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon or catching rainbow trout in the Shoshone River of Wyoming. Fishing is my life.According to the American Sports Fishing Association, the fishing industry brings in more than $ 116 billion per year from fishermen across the country.Though a beautiful picture to imagine, fishing is much more than that. Fishing is a way of life from many people and a way to escape everyday stress. Being a fisherman makes me a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life. Even President Bush can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when the jobs gets too stressful.I can remember fishing with my grandfather when I was 5 years old on his boat at Lake Michel. Although I didn’t understand what I was doing, I did know that my grandfather was happy and that made me happy. Since then I’ve spent the past 16 years on the rivers and lakes of Alabama.After days of practice, before and after work, I slowly developed an understanding of fishing. My boss, Ric Horst, took me back to the Shoshone, and I managed to bring in a 19-inch cutthroat trout. Fishing with Ric was a life-changing experience for me. He not only showed me how to fish correctly, but also told me how fishing could be a way to escape your problems.Since then, prime-time season seems to take forever to arrive.Now, with the ending of February and beginning of March is sight, the excitement of heading out to Lake Tus caloosa or Lake Lurleen before classes and catching something has finally returned.28.What John Steinbeck said in the first paragraph implies that ______A.American are believed to be the offspring of fishermen.B.it is unthinkable for an American to admit his dislike of fishing.C.All American are expert at fishing.D.Those who dislike fishing would not love their mother.29.The writer came to understand the real meaning of fishing ______.A.When he was reading “The Pearl” by John SteinbeckB.When he went fishing with his grandfather at Lake MitchellC.After he had spent 16 years on the rivers and lakes of AlabamaD.After he went fishing with his boss, Ric Horst on the Shoshone30.According to the author, ______.A.People can get to know VIPs when fishingB.People can smooth away all the troubles by fishingC.Fishing is a way of communicationD.Fishing is a way of life for most American people31.What is the purpose of the writing?A.To describe the writer’s experience and understanding of fishing.B.To explain the reason why so many Americans like fishing.C.To make others understand the industry of fishing.D.To express his opinions about fishing in different time of the year.DA small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That’s the finding of a study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce of salt water fish per day compared to those who never ate fish.The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific support to the long held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths occurring from heart attacks each year. But previous research has shown that the level of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish. At the start of the study, average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day, with more men eating lean fish than fatty fish.During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol(胆固醇)levels.32.The passage is mainly about _________.A.the high incidence of heart disease in some countriesB.the changes in people’s dietC.the effect of fish eating on people’s healthD.the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures33.We can infer from the passage that there are fewer heart disease deaths ________.A.in countries of the yellow-skin raceB.in highly-developed countriesC.in the countries with high consumption of fishD.in the countries with good production of fish34.The phrase “this relationship” in paragraph 6 refers to the connection between _________ and the level of heart disease.A.the amount of fish eaten B.regular fish-eatingC.the kind of fish eaten D.people of different areas35.From the passage we know the author is most probably ______.A.a heart doctor B.a science researcherC.a supporter of healthy eating D.a university student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。

Do you know why? That’s because some food companies used horse meat to make beef products.There are some examples about the horse meat matter. In January, 2013, in a number of UK supermarkets, frozen hamburgers were found to have traces of horse meat in them. Some frozen beef products made by food company FINDUS were found to contain horse meat. All of the beef products made by this company have been removed from sale.The government said that there’s nothing to suggest any health risk from the products. Food minister David Heath said people should not throw away frozen meat products and carry on eating meat.

Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?Jane Addams(1860—1935)Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区)by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.Rachel Carson(1907—1964)If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of thedangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.Sandra Day O’Connor(1930—present)When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员)and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.Rosa Parks(1913—2005)On December 1,1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tiredI was, was tired of giving in,”said Parks.1.What is Jane Addams noted for in history?A.Her social work.B.Her teaching skills.C.Her efforts to win a prize.D.Her community background.2.What was the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm?A.Her lack of proper training in law.B.Her little work experience in court.C.The discrimination against women.D.The poor financial conditions.3.Who made a great contribution to the civil-rights movement in the U.S.?A.Jane Addams.B.Rachel Carson.C.Sandra Day O’Connor.D.Rosa Parks.4.What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text?A.They are highly educated.B.They are truly creative.C.They are pioneers(先锋,先驱).D.They are peace-lovers.10、When my brother and I were young, my mom would take us on Transportation Days.It goes like this: You can’t take any means of transportation more than once. We would start from home, walking two blocks to the rail station. We’d take the train into the city center, then a bus, switching to the tram, then maybe a taxi. We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district, but we didn’t like the way the horses were treated, so we never did. At the end of the day, we took the subway to our closest station, where Mom’s friend was waiting to give us a ride home—our first car ride of the day.The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around. She was born to be multimodal (多方式的). She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and, above all, a failure of confidence—the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels.Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore. New cities are just light-rail lines to be explored. And your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more tool in the toolbox—and often an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet.On Transportation Days, we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book or toy, but the transportation was the point. First, it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. As I got older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How do I know when I need tickets, and where to get them? What track, what line, which direction, where’s the stop, and will I get wet when we go under the river?I’m writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didn’t try on our Transportation Days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all. My flight routed me through Philadelphia. My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport. She took a train to meet me.1.Which was forbidden by Mom on Transportation Days?A.Havinga car ride.B.Taking the train twice.C.Buying more than one toy.D.Touring the historic district.2.According to the writer, what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days?A.Building confidence in herself.B.Reducing her use of private cars.C.Developing her sense of direction.D.Giving her knowledge about vehicles.3.Which means of transportation(交通工具) does the writer probably disapprove of (不赞成)?A.Airplane.B.Subway.C.Tram.D.Car.七选五11、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。
