浙江省临海市白云高级中学高一英语必修一测试题：Unit 1 《Friendship》 练习卷1

111Sitting in the play area of the doctors office，my children，Paul，four，and Bailey，three，built a Lego tower while we waited to be called for Pauls examination.“Good job，you guys，”I said，trying not to sound too tired.My husband was away on business，and it was difficult being alone with the kids.At times I felt like I was living in the jungle (丛林) rather than the suburbs.“Dont put the Lego in your mouth，Bailey，” I said.Paul grabbed (抓取) it from him.“Thats not nice，Paul，” I said.He gave back the Lego.I looked around the waiting room.A woman was eating something，a couple were talking，and an old gentleman in a blue jacket was reading a magazine.I wished I could sit quietly for a while.I wanted to be able to take a rest，or go shopping alone.At once，I was ashamed of myself.What kind of mother was I？“God，” I thought，“help me to be the very best mom I can be.”The nurse came into the waiting room to get us.Just at that moment，the old gentleman in the waiting room put down his magazine and came up to me.With a smile on his face，he said，“Your children are most certainly lucky to have such a wonderful mother.”“Thank you，”I replied in a low voice and watched him walk back to his seat.We followed the nurse into the examination room.While she weighed Paul，I told her how that man had made my day.Motherhood is still a jungle sometimes，but now when I feel tired I remember the encouraging words of the old gentleman.1The writer went to the doctors office because_.Aone of her children liked to play thereBher son Paul needed an examinationCshe was tired and needed to see her doctorDshe wanted to have all her children examined2From Paragraph 2，we know the writer felt that looking after her children alone was_.Aunfair BhappyChard Dinteresting3In the old gentlemans opinion，the writer_.Alived a very hard lifeBwas a very good motherCdidnt love her children enoughDwas lucky to have so lovely children4What can we learn from the passage?AThe writer often went shopping alone.BThe writers husband was always on business.CThe writer doesnt know how to be a good mother.DThe writer was greatly encouraged by the old gentlemans words.BWriting a long book seemed to be too much for me.So，for a long time，I just wrote short articles.One day，inspiration (灵感) for an article hit me and，as I started writing，paragraphs began flowing out fast.It turned out to be too long to be an article.I thought it would not hurt to try selfpublishing a booklet (小册子)The first printing of this 32page black and white booklet sold out within a week.Here is something that I have learned through my experience.1Start small.Dont try to have a 400page work as your first publication (出版物)I suggest you publish a booklet under 50 pages to launch your career as an author.2 Ask for advice.If you know some people who have published something，ask them for advice and help.You will gain useful information from them and save yourself many problems.3_When you put your heart into something only to hear “Were not interested”，you may get hurt.But you must remind yourself that this is quite common.Every “yes” you receive comes after at least five “noes”，especially at the beginning.You need to revise (校订) your book many times to reduce the chances of being turned down.4The more you market，the more you sell.You can publish an excellent book.But if no people know about it，you cannot expect many buyers.Send out an email to friends，family and business partners，telling them your books publication date.Ask them to help sell your book.Do not be afraid to try novel ideas.4We learn that before selfpublishing his first booklet，the writer most probably_.Ahoped that he would write some famous long storiesBhad nothing published in newspapersCwas not happy with what he had writtenDthought it difficult to finish a long book5What does the underlined word “launch” in Point 1 here mean?ABegin. BDevelop. CLead. DDescribe.6Whats the best title for Point 3?ANo one will like what you wrote at first.BYou will get hurt by what you wrote at first.CPrepare for a “yes” rather than a “no”DBe prepared to deal with “noes”CIn the tenth grade，I began working for free at a vets that was run by a friend.I wanted to get experience for what I thought would be my future job.However，on one particular Saturday morning I learnt something perhaps more important.The hospital was in the middle of one of the poorer sections of the city and some people could only pay for the most basic treatments.On this Saturday，a man and his young son，who was probably about 7 years old，walked in with a small cat in a cardboard box.There was something wrong with the cats left eye.But the man could not afford to pay for the cost of the medicine.He kept quiet for a while，and then he asked where the nearest animal shelter was.Hearing this，his son cried and started to argue with him.All of a sudden，an older woman who was sitting in the waiting room stood up，walked up to the counter，and told the man that she would pay for the cost.The man thanked her and the son got to keep a healthy cat.I always thought it was the right thing to help out a needy person，but I only saw people do acts of kindness on TV or in movies.What the woman did made me believe that these things do happen in real life，and quite often. Now，when I cant decide whether to help someone who is in need，I remember this woman，and then I have the courage to step up to the plate.Sometimes other people follow.7We can infer that a vets is most probably a hospital for_.Akids Bthe poor Canimals Dwomen8For what purpose did the writer work at the vets?ATo help out his friend.BTo make some pocket money.CTo gain some work experience.DTo learn more about society.9What would the man probably do with the cat if the woman didnt help him?ATake it home without treatment.BGive it to someone on the street.CGive it to the woman.DGive it up.10We can learn from this passage that_.Athe man doesnt like keeping a catBthe older woman often helps people outCthe mans son didnt agree to the mans first decisionDthe hospital often asks for too much money11After reading the passage，we know that the act of the woman_.Awill be shown on TV to teach people a lessonBmade the writer believe that women are kindCmade the writer know that everyone could help othersDencouraged the writer to help othersD“How was school，Ben？” I asked my grandson after he began kindergarten (幼儿园) this year.“The work is too long.and theres not enough time to play，” he replied.I couldnt help but remember Bens own mother，my daughter，Jane，and her reaction (反应) to the first day of school.Julie was also disappointed with the first day of school and so was her little sister.“I want to go sooland you not let me！” my threeyearold daughter announced angrily after her big sister got on the big yellow school bus.When Julie returned home that afternoon I asked her the same question that I asked Ben，“How was school，Julie？” Julie replied，“I didnt learn to read today.”This year as the school bus went by my house，my mind went back to those school days again.I could almost smell the chalk dust in the air.I also wonder what the children these days manage to get chosen to do in order to get out of school for a few moments since there are no erasers to clean.It was fun to be “chosen” for eraser cleaning duty.This was a task finished by going outside and beating erasers together while sneezing and coughing. No_wonder_so_many_babies_now_have_allergies_(过敏症)，its_simply_because_we_all_have_chalk_dust_in_our_lungs!On the first day of school，the expectation was so great that I would ready long before it was time to leave for school.We didnt miss having backpacks because we had cigar boxes.We carried our small supplies inside a cigar box from one of the local stores.We saved the cigar boxes and used them from year to year until they fell apart.The first day of school was exciting.It was a new beginning.The doors of knowledge had been opened.The first day of school is an event in our lives that most of us remember.Its a big step for a small child toward leaving babyhood behind and so “there isnt enough time to play”No matter how old we get，nor how much we learn，it still seems like “The work is too long.and theres not enough time to play.”12Why did Jane become angry according to the passage?ABecause she didnt learn to read on the first day of school. BBecause there was too much work for her to do at school.CBecause she had no time to play at school.DBecause she wasnt allowed to go to school.13The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 suggests that_.Athe author was thinking of her school days jokinglyBthe author warned students against the harm of chalk dustCthe author suffered from an allergy because of chalk dustDthe author doubted whether her lungs had chalk dust14In the opinion of the author，the first day of school is_.Aa day when a child is the happiestBa day when a child does much workCthe beginning of great learningDthe end of childhood full of toys15Which of the following may the author agree with?AChildren have too much homework to do now.BTeachers should make their classes interesting on the first day of school.CSchool days havent changed over years.DPeople never have enough time to play once they start school.第二部分（单词填空20分）It was very fine when I got up early last Sunday morning.
