‎2018-2019学年黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学高一上学期期中考试英语试题 本试卷共150分 答题时间120分钟 第I 卷（共70分）‎ 第一部分：阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，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。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。‎ A If you are travelling in Britain, besides so many world-class things to see and do in London, planning a day trip away from it can also be good.‎ Stonehenge Stonehenge consists of a group of large standing stones. The 5,000-year-old stones are one of the world’s biggest mysteries(谜) that no one has understood yet. While travelling Stonehenge, you can imagine wildly and decide for yourself how the stones came to be there and why. Although you can’t touch the stones, you can walk among them and feel the changes of seasons.‎ Windsor Most people visit Windsor to see Windsor Castle, where the Queen spends most of her time. The castle(城堡) itself could keep you busy for days. The best way to appreciate Windsor Castle is to approach via the Long Walk, a straight road where there are no cars, but you might see some deer.‎ Oxford Oxford is best known for its world-famous university. The large student population keeps the university young and fresh, though there’s no shortage of history if you want it. 30 colleges make up the university itself. A tour of the colleges is a must—Harry Potter fans will find many places ‎ used in the movies.‎ Bath Founded by the Romans, who used the area’s springs to create a spa retreat（水疗中心）, Bath’s now the best tourist attraction of Southwest England. Visitors never miss the Roman Bath Complex, which is divided into four main parts—the Bath House, the Sacred Spring, the Roman Temple and the museum, which displays fascinating finds from the historical ruins of the city.‎ ‎1. What remains a mystery about Stonehenge?‎ A. How long it has been there. B. Why the stones can’t be touched.‎ C. Why it changes with seasons. D.How the stones came there. ‎ ‎2. If you want to visit some shooting sites(拍摄现场) of Harry Potter, you should go to ________.‎ A. London B. Oxford University C. Windsor Castle D. Bath House ‎3. We can learn from the text that ________.‎ A. London is no longer a popular tourist destination B. visitors will be received by the Queen in Windsor Castle C. the large number of college students adds freshness to Oxford D. the historical ruins of Bath is not worth visiting ‎ B ‎ There are so many expressions in American English that sound good but are not.‎ ‎“Face the music” is a good example. When someone says they have to face the music, it does not mean they are going to a musical show or concert. To face the music means to accept the bad results of an action.‎ Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful red sports car. She gives you the keys and says, “Thanks so much for watching my car while I’m away. But please do not drive it. It is a very fast car and you are not on the insurance (保险).”‎ But you do not listen. You want to show it to some friends and pretend(假装) the car is yours. So, you drive it around town one night. As bad luck would have it, you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign. The damage is serious. When your friend returns you must tell her what you have done and “face the music”.‎ The “music” here is the result of your actions. It could be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her sports car or both. Whatever the music is, you must face it.‎ There are other American expressions that mean the same as “face the music”.‎ To “take your medicine” means to accept the results from something bad you have done. And if someone says, “You made your bed. Now lie in it.” He means you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results, or as we say in American spoken English, you must deal with it!‎ ‎“Pay the piper” also means the same as “face the music”. But, that expression has its own very interesting beginning. We will talk about that in the next Words and Their Stories.‎ 4. What’s the main idea of this passage?‎ A. To invite a friend to go to a musical performance ‎ B. To tell people how to deal with a bad situation ‎ C. To give people a lesson on an action ‎ D. To introduce some expressions ‎5. Which action belongs to “take your medicine”？‎ A. You broke the traffic rules and caused an accident.‎ B. You worked hard but failed in the exam.‎ C. You caught a cold and took some medicine.‎ D. You moved to a new city and lost touch with your old friends.‎ ‎6. Which of the following expressions doesn’t have the same meaning with the others?‎ A. Face the music. B. Take your medicine.‎ C. Make your bed. D. Pay the piper.‎ ‎7. The next programme may talk about __________.‎ A. Other words and their stories. ‎ B. The beginning of “pay the piper”.‎ C. The wider use of “face the music”. ‎ D. An example of “take your medicine”.‎ C My friend Jason and I wanted to do something to help other people who are less lucky and help us grow at the same time. After we decided that we would volunteer in Nepal, I did some surveys on the Internet and I found an organization called Volunteer(志愿者) Nepal and felt strongly that it was the right choice for us.‎ While making our plans, Jason and I realized that others might like the chance to be a part of our experience. So before leaving for Nepal, we asked the people we know whether they would be interested in donating(捐赠) money or goods to Nepal Orphans Home.‎ One friend, whose family owns a shop called Drake Supermarket, told others about it. Many people wanted to donate something. We received donations that filled 29 boxes with sporting goods, toys, coloring books, pencils, children's books, and more, The boxes were later taken to Drake's warehouse(仓库) where I prepared them for shipment. Drake agreed to ship them to Nepal for free .‎ The boxes had arrived at the Volunteer House when we arrived there. The next day, Jason and I opened the boxes. The children from the orphanages(孤儿院) stood in a line and were able to choose a gift. This took about an hour, but the looks on their faces and the happiness that we saw in their eyes made it one of the best days of our life.‎ We visited the orphanages there in the following days. Being with the children at the orphanages was both sad and wonderful. I’m sure that anyone who has volunteered will understand what I mean by that. My experience as a volunteer was very useful. It has changed me as a person and the way I viewed life in the past. ‎ ‎8. The writer did some surveys on the Internet probably to_______.‎ A. get in touch with some students B. decide country to volunteer ‎ C. find some friends to volunteer with him D. find an organization for volunteers ‎9. Before leaving for Nepal, the writer______.‎ A. asked his friends to go with him B. filled 29 boxes with the things he bought C. received many donations from other people D. bought many things in Drake Supermarket ‎ ‎10 .

The children had never received gifts from others before.‎ D. The writer and his friend took the gifts to the orphanages.‎ ‎11. The writer thinks that his experience as a volunteer was______.‎ A. useful B. embarrassing C. boring D. disappointing ‎ ‎ D Having a smart phone may not be as smart as you think.They may let you surf the Internet,listen to music and take photos wherever you are…but they also turn you into a workaholic（工作狂）,it seems.‎ A study suggests that,by giving you access to emails at all times,the smart phone adds as much as two hours to your working day. Experts found that British people work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles.The study shows the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours,but 2 more hours is spent responding to or sending work emails,or making work calls.‎ Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some workers say they are on call almost 24 hours a day. Nearly two-thirds say they often check work emails just before they go to bed and as soon as they wake up, while over a third have replied to one in the middle of the night.The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m and 7 a.m, with more than a third checking their first email in the period, and a quarter checking them between 11p.m.and midnight.‎ Ghadi Hobeika,marketing director of Pixmania,said:“The ability to access millions of Apps has made smart phone invaluable for many people.However,there are disadvantages.Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week,and smart phones mean that people cannot get away from work.The more frequently in contact we become,the more is expected of us in a work capacity.”‎ 12. With a smart phone the average UK working day is .‎ A． 11 to 12 hours B． 9 to 10 hours C． 8 hours D． 2 hours ‎13. We can learn from the text that the British people .‎ A． prefer to check emails in the morning B． are crazy about different smart phone C． work more hours with smart phones D． shorten their normal working hours ‎14. What does the underlined word “invaluable” mean?‎ A. useless B. necessary C. expensive D. cheap ‎15. What does Ghadi Hobeika feel about smart phones?‎ A． They are unimportant for most of people. ‎ B． They have disadvantages for some companies.‎ C． They are useful to improve a work ability. ‎ D． They make it impossible for people to rest.‎ 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。‎ ‎ Learning English online is a good way to improve your English.
