2019-2020年高一英语上学期期中试卷(答案不全)第一卷第一部分阅读理解(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) A When milk arrived on the doorstepWhen I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman sending milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldnt take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a sending and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he sent more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write a note“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next sending”and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically(魔术般)appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldnt freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk sending today. Big panies allowed the production of cheaper milk thus making it difficult for milkmen to pete (竞争). Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practiced to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊). Every so often ,my sons friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.1Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer .A.to show his magical power B.to pay for the deliveryC. to satisfy his curiosity D.to please his mother2What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boys house? A.He wanted to have tea there. B.He was a respectable person. C.He was treated as a family member. D.He was fully trusted by the family.3 Why does home milk sending no longer exist?A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now. B.It has been driven out of the market. C.Its service is getting poor. D.It is forbidden by law.4Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A.He missed the good old days.B.He wanted to tell interesting stories. C.He needed it for his milk bottles. D.He planted flowers in it.BPop music is the name for different forms of popular, mercial(商业) music. It had its beginning in the USA and spread throughout the whole world during the 1950s and 1960s. It is widely liked by the young people. The best known early form of pop music was “rock-n-roll”; another was “blues”. A more recent development is “folk-rock”. Pop music has taken the place of native music in many parts of the world; it has caused the number of people for jazz to bee much smaller than it was in the 1950s and earlier, and it has now begun to rule musical stage productions. Its a big industry. Much pop music is without artistic value, but the work of some pop singers, e.g. the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Floyd and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is on a higher musical level. And there is still a great interest in it today. Pop music concerts and festivals are held all over the world.5.All of the following forms belong to pop music EXCEPT _.

The fastest way of traveling is by air. With a modern airliner you can travel in one day to places which it took a month or more to get to a hundred years ago. Traveling by train is slower than by air, but it has its own advantages. For example, you can see the country you are traveling through. Besides, modern trains have fortable seats and dining cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable and fortable. Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible. There are large liners and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different places. Traveling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday. Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day, just as you like. You can stop wherever you wishwhere there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night. That is why traveling by car is popular for pleasure trips, while people usually take a train or a plane when they are traveling on business.9.
