阜蒙县第二高中20172018学年度第二学期高一期中考试英语试卷 时间：100分钟 分数：120分 第一部分：阅读理解（共两节；第一节：共15小题，每小题2分， 满分30分） A On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “Youre nervous and thats okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends. On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle(迷宫) that I couldnt figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didnt think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right. Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging. Since then, Ive been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasnt much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions. It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overe. Make sure you participate in some outofclass activities because youll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isnt straight As. Most important of all, be who you are, whether youre a “fool”， an athlete, or a lower grader. Dont try to pretend to be someone youre not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.1. The main reason for the authors fear on his first day is that _. Ahe was not familiar with the new surroundings Bhis schoolmates were unfriendly to him Che was unable to work out the puzzle Dhis schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry2. From the authors first day experience we can infer that _. Ahe didnt know the right way to class Bhe got to school before classes began Che was fond of the school immediately. Dhis home was far from the school3. After his first week at school, the author _. Awas still not accustomed to the schedule Bgradually adjusted himself to the new school Cfound high school not so challenging as he had imagined Dran for monitor of his class against three other students4. According to the passage, the secret of the authors success lies mainly in_. Amaking more friends Bgetting more As at school Cbeing who he really is Djoining in out of class activities B Every day we go to school and listen to teachers, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends - you are in a situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself. Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease in ordinary conversation but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.5. When you speak to the class, you should speak _. Aas loudly as possible Bloudly Cin a low voiceDforcefully6. The situation in the class is _ that in your house. Anot very different from Bnot the same as Cthe same as Dsometimes the same as 7. The main idea of this passage is _. Athat we should talk in different ways in different situations Bthat we must speak loudly Cthat we must keep silent at any time Dthat we must talk with the class C Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with mercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The mercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.” Drink Good Wet Root Beer.” Fill up with Pacific Gas.” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of You Need It! Buy It Now! The beginning of the ride is fortable and somewhat exciting, even if youve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and its fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless （鲁莽的） or daring, the ride can be as thrilling （惊心动魄的） as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But youve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops. The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and theres a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course, has bee harder as the hours have passed. By now youve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the armrests even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end es just at no more ways to sit.8. According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip? A. Advertisements on the billboards.B. Films on television. C.Buses on the road. D. Gas stations.9. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To give the writers opinion about long bus trips. B. To persuade you to take a long bus trip. C. To explain how bus trips and television shows differ. D. To describe the billboards along the road.10. The writer of this passage would probably favor. A. bus drivers who arent reckless B. driving alone C. a television set on the bus D. no billboards along the road11. The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because. A. the mercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are fun B. they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with mercials in between C. the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on buses D. both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.12. The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are. A.fortable B. exciting C. tiring D. boring DTokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time. In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to go. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that, it is different when one wants to walk. At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in Londons Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when the night-clubs are closing and every-body wants to go home. There are 35,000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty(空的). During the day, most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time. In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.13. Tokyo is different from London in that _.A. it has a larger population B. there are more traffic jamsC. night clubs are sometimes empty D. it is more difficult to go somewhere on foot14. Fires break out_ in Tokyo according to the writer.A. not very often B. only several times a dayC. quite often D. very seldom15. Japanese trains _A. often leave and arrive on timeB. are often crowdedC. are the main means people use to travel to and from workD. all of the above第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Everyone wants to achieve happiness and smile16 How can you find real happiness and smile?

There have several advantages if you consult the persons you trust. For one thing, they can give you valuable advicesand they may point out some things you may have overlooked. For another, friends may stop you from make big mistakes.When consulting others about importance decisions, you should keep two things in mind. The first one is that you need to find someone whom you respected enough to trust their judgment. The second thing to consider is how to do if you disagree with this person. Maybe turning to a third or fourth person for help is a good choice.In a word，making any big decision alone can lead inproblems.Talking to friends or family members first are always a good idea. 第二节：书面表达(满分25分)假定你是李华,在学习英语过程中遇到了困难.请给English Weekly 的编辑写一封短信.要点如下:1、自我介绍；2、遇到的困难；3、希望得到建议和帮助注意：1. 词数100左右；2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3. 答案必须写在答题卡相应的位置.2017-2018学年度第二学期高一期中考试英语答案一、 阅读理解1-15 AABA BBA AADBB DCD16-20 B,AC,AB,D,A二、第二部分，第一节 完形填空41-60 AABBC BBDBC BBBDC CBADA第二节、 语篇填空41.thirtieth 42. what 43. an 44. were invited或had been invited 45. on 46. personally 47. us 48. celebration 49. following 50. have done三、第一节 改错第一句plete改成pletely 第二句：very改成so第三句have改成are 第四句advices改成advice第五句make改成making 第六句importance改成important第七句respected改成respect 第八句how改成what第十句in改成to 第十一句 are改成is第二节 书面表达Dear Editor:I am Li Hua, a student from Class One, Senior One.
