She sent postcards to her friends. Dear Lei Fang, London is a busy city and so many people are living here. There are always a lot of things to do. However, the subway can take you to travel all over the city. Today we went to visit Buckingham Palace and the Tower of Bridge. I will be very tired when I get home. See you soon. Love Lily Dear Tan Xiao, I’m having a great vacation. This is an amazing city. There are lots of interesting old buildings and famous museums to visit. The people here are friendly and helpful when we get lost. The only thing that I don’t like is the weather. It rains every day and it’s still cold. Wish you were here! Love Lily Dear Wang Lin, This is a beautiful city and I like it very much. You can see parks here and there. The River Thames runs in the middle of the city. My mother and I have been busy shopping. Restaurants can offer you all types of food. I’ve got lots of photos to show you when I get back. Love Lily 51. Which of the following places may Lily have NOT visited yet? A. The London Eye. B.

A. beautiful but unfriendly B. amazing and busy C. unfriendly and dirty D. busy but polluted B Imagine a relay race. During this race, an athlete holds a stick as he runs a certain distance. Then he passes the stick to the next runner. That person runs faster, and then passes the stick to a third runner. Now imagine that the runners do not pass a stick. Instead they pass shiny silk, as well as gold, fruit, and glass. Imagine that the race does not move forward in just one direction. 高一英语试题第12页共10页 Instead the runners go back and forth along a road. They trade goods all along this route (路线) and at each end of it. Now imagine that the runners are businessmen. They lead caravans (商队) or lines of camels that carry things to sell. They travel on the ancient Silk Road to earn their living. The Silk Road was a complex trade network. It passed through thousands of cities and towns. It stretched from eastern China, across central Asia and the Middle east, to the Mediterranean Sea. Businessmen traveled on the Silk Road from about 200 B.C. to about 1300 A.D.. Then sea travel began to offer new routes. Some people called the Silk Road the world’s longest highway. However, the Silk Road included many routes--not just one smooth path. The routes ran through mountains and across deserts. They passed through an area that now includes 18 countries. The Silk Road had many dangers. These dangers ranged from hot sun and deep snow to thieves and wars. Only expert traders could survive. The Silk Road got its name from its most prized goods. People used silk as money. They could pay taxes or buy goods with it. Traders carried more than just silk, though. They had gold, silver, and glass from Europe. People in the Middle East and Asia wanted these things. Businessmen also took horses from flat, grassy areas in central Asia and brought them to China and other areas. The horses changed the way people farmed and ran their armies. Indian businessmen traded salt and rare, beautiful stones. Chinese merchants traded medicine and china. They also traded paper, which quickly replaced animal skins in the west. Businessmen carried apples from central Asia to Rome. The Chinese had learned to combine different trees to create new kinds of fruit. They taught this science to others, such as the Romans. The Romans began to grow apples for food. The Silk Road led to worldwide commerce 2,000 years before the World Wide Web. The people along the Silk Road did not share only goods. They also shared beliefs. Monks, priests, and other faith leaders taught their religions to others. The Silk Road created pathways for knowledge, diplomacy, and religion. 54. People turned to the sea for new routes after around 1300 A.D. because ________. A. the Silk Road included many routes B. the Silk Road passed through many areas C.people traveled on the Silk Road for too long D. there were more dangers along the Silk Road 55. Which of the following is closest to the meaning of the word prized in paragraph 3? A.appropriate B. preserved C. valuable D. useful 56. Which of the following statements is WRONG? A. The Silk Road helped spread religions to more people. B. The Silk Road gave people the idea to build highways. C. Some people probably died while travelling. D. Westerners probably used to write on animal skins. 57. In which column of a newspaper can we most probably read the article? A. Science. B. Travel. C. Sports. D. Culture. C According to the Associated Press (AP), a Chinese scientist claims he successfully created the world’s first genetically-edited babies. Chinese researcher He Jiankui, a research professor at China’s Southern University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen, said he had edited DNA of twin girls born a few weeks ago. ① He’s claims were immediately criticized by some scientists as unsafe and unethical. This 高一英语试题第12页共10页 kind of gene editing is forbidden in the United States and many other countries. ②Such changes to a person’s DNA can pass to future generations and risk harming other genes. In interviews, He Jiankui defended his work. He said he had performed the gene editing to help protect the babies from future infection of HIV, the virus responsible for the disease AIDS. He said the process had “worked safely” and the twin girls were “as healthy as any other babies.” He told the AP he felt a strong responsibility “not just to make a first, but also to make an example” for future research. “Society will decide what to do next,” he said. When He’s claims became public, the university made a statement saying his work had “seriously went against academic ethics and standards.” University officials said they had no knowledge of his research and had looked into the case. ③ China’s National Health Commission was “highly concerned” about the claims and ordered local health officials “to immediately look into” He’s activity. “We have to be responsible for the people’s health and will act on this according to the law,” the commission said. Scientists discovered in recent years a new way to edit genes that make up a person’s DNA throughout the body. The tool, called CRISPR-cas9, makes it possible to change DNA to supply a needed gene or take one away that is causing problems. So far the tool has only been used on adults to treat deadly diseases, and the changes only affected that person. ④Kiran Musunuru, a scientist from University of Pennsylvania, told the AP that if such an experiment had been carried out on human beings, it could not be “morally or ethically reasonable.” Julian Savulescu, a medical ethics expert at Britain’s University of Oxford, agreed. “If true, this experiment may cause disasters,” he told Reuters. However, one well-known geneticist, Harvard University’s George Church, defended the attempt to edit genes to prevent infections of HIV. He told the AP that since HIV is “a major and growing public health threat” he finds such experiments “valuable.” 58. What can we learn from this passage? A. All scientists consider He’s experiment unsafe and unethical. B. The university He works in supports his experiment. C. Many countries don’t allow editing babies genetically. D. China’s National Health Commission thinks highly of He’s experiment. 59. The following sentence “However, many scientists believe such experiment is dangerous.” can be placed in __________. A. ① B.② C.③ D.④ 60. What’s the author’s attitude towards He Jiankui’s research? A. Supportive. B. Uninterested. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral. 61. What might be the best title of this passage? A. Chinese Scientist Claims First Gene Edited Babies B. Chinese Scientist Finds A New Cure For AIDS C. Gene Editing Still Has A Long Way To Go D. China Takes The Lead In Gene Editing D Little Women is the story of four sisters growing up during the Civil War. Each March (马奇) sister has a different personality. Meg, the oldest, is dignified (端庄) and proper. Jo, next in age, is energetic and wants to be a writer. Beth is shy and quiet and loves music. Amy, the youngest, is spoiled (被宠坏的), a little conceited (自负), and enjoys art. In the following passage, an excerpt(节选)from Chapter 14 Secrets, Jo has a secret surprise to tell her sisters. 高一英语试题第12页共10页 Laurie is the boy who lives next door, and Hannah is the March’s servant. The Spread Eagle is a newspaper in the town. In a few minutes Jo bounced (蹦跳) in, laid herself on the sofa, and pretended to read. “Have you anything interesting there?” asked Meg, with condescension (屈尊). “Nothing but a story, won’t amount to much, I guess,” returned Jo, carefully keeping the name of the paper out of sight. “You’d better read it aloud. That will amuse us and keep you out of mischief (恶作剧),” said Amy in her most grown-up tone. “What’s the name?” asked Beth, wondering why Jo kept her face behind the sheet. “The Rival Painters.” “That sounds well. Read it,” said Meg. With a loud “Hem!” and a long breath, Jo began to read very fast. The girls listened with interest, for the tale was romantic, and somewhat pathetic (哀婉动人), as most of the characters died in the end. “I like that about the splendid picture,” was Amy’s approving remark, as Jo paused. “I prefer the lovering part. Viola and Angelo are two of our favorite names, isn’t that strange?” said Meg, wiping her eyes, for the lovering part was tragical (凄婉). “Who wrote it?” asked Beth, who had caught a glimpse(瞥) of Jo’s face. The reader suddenly sat up, threw away the paper, displaying a red face, and with a funny mixture of solemnity and excitement replied in a loud voice, “Your sister.” “You?” cried Meg, dropping her work. “It’s very good,” said Amy. “I knew it! I knew it! Oh, my Jo, I am so proud!” and Beth ran to hug her sister, wild with joy over this splendid success. Dear me, how excited they all were, to be sure! How Meg wouldn’t believe it till she saw the words. “Miss Josephine March,” actually printed in the paper. How politely Amy criticized (批评) the artistic parts of the story, and offered advice for a sequel (续集), which unfortunately couldn’t be carried out, as the hero and heroine were dead. How Beth got excited, and skipped and sang with joy. How Hannah came in to shout in great astonishment at ‘that Jo’s doin’s’. How proud Mrs March was when she knew it. How Jo laughed, with tears in her eyes, as she declared she might as well be a peacock(孔雀) and done with it, and how the ‘Spread Eagle’ might be said to fly his wings proudly over the House of March, as the paper passed from hand to hand. “Tell us about it.”“When did it come?”“How much did you get for it?”“What will Father say?”“Won’t Laurie laugh?” cried the family, all in one breath as they gathered around Jo, for these foolish, affectionate (痴情的) people had a celebration of every little joy of family. 62. What was Jo’s secret? A. Her story was published in a newspaper. B. She read another romantic novel secretly. C. She bought a newspaper secretly at first. D. She fell in love with the next door boy. 63. Why did Meg wipe her eyes after hearing the story? 高一英语试题第12页共10页 A. She was proud of her sister. B. She was jealous of her sister. C. She was moved by the lovering part of the story. D. The story reminded her of her own sad experiences. 64. The underlined words “the reader” refers to________. A. Meg B. Jo C. Beth D. Amy 65. What is implied in the last two paragraphs? A. Jo’s story was well received in the March family. B. Everyone was satisfied with the story. C. Jo was sure everyone in town would like her story. D. The success of Jo’s story was mainly due to the Spread Eagle. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s difficult to find true friends these days. 66 How? Here are some tips on how to make your friendship last forever: Call for no reason. Call just to say “Hi” or just to ask “What’s up?”. If you can’t call, just send an e-mail. 67 . Know when to say “I’m sorry.” and “Thank you”. 68 Show appreciation for the things, big or little that your friend does for you. Say thank you. It’s that easy. 69 . If you have nothing good to say, don’t talk at all. Don’t risk hurting your friend’s feelings by saying hurtful words that, most of the time, you don’t really mean. Be honest. Don’t lie to friends. Trust is the foundation of true friendship. Write them a note from time to time. Also, try to be thoughtful. Give simple gifts that will make their day. Never be mean with your time. Spare some time to see your friends however busy you are. You can always spare an hour or two after school or work to visit them. 70 . If you are the type of person who knows how to take care of friendship, you definitely are a keeper! A. Avoid hurtful words. B. Action speaks louder than words. C. Some are never there when you need them most. D. Don’t let pride get in the way, especially when you’re at fault. E. Weekends are a great time, too, to bond and hang out with your friends. F. This would send a message that you remember your friends at a random (任意的) time of the day. G. Once you find a friend who is worth keeping, make sure to take care of what you have with that person. 第II卷(非选择题,共40分) 高一英语试题第12页共10页 第一部分短文填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In northeastern Liaoning Province, winter can be very cold.

In fact, I’m doing a business research about Spring Festival for my company. M: Really? Maybe you can come to spend it with my family. W: Can I? M: My parents would be happy to have you.
