淇县一中2015-2016学年上期第三次月考试卷
高一英语
第Ⅰ卷
第一部分：听力（略）
第二部分 阅读理解 （共两节，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、D中，选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。
专家认为，做阅读理解不应该是读， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )而应该是看。默读有利于发展阅读者的内部语言，有利于强化理解，有利于提高阅读速度。测试表明，我们朗读时，一分钟能念125个字就已很不错了，而默读时，每分钟可读150个字以上，有人阅读小说时甚至可达每分钟600字。
默读时一定要做到如下三点：①全神贯注 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。这是有效阅读最需要的心理素质。②积极思维。默读有利于思维活动的开展，有利于深层理解。③减少回视。回视率高不仅限制了速度，也会对内容的理解产生支离破碎的影响。
高一英语组寄语 A
My life began ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) similarly to most of the kids in my family. My mother did her best to take care of us, but left after my father drunk many times. So I grew up not knowing what a father was and no one was there to teach me.
As a result, I dev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eloped the usual problems with alcohol and drugs and spent seven years as a street kid, landing in a rehab center (康复中心) when I was 20. Inside I met my adviser, Bill, and he taught me a lot of things. The main thing was the gift of giving.
It was the night ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) before an important event and I was very nervous. Bill saw this and suggested that we go for a walk. As we walked and talked, Bill suggested we go for a coffee. I told him I was broke, but when I got paid, I would pay him back. He stopped then and looked at me in a serious, but kindly way and said, “No, you won’t.”
He added that I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )didn’t owe him anything and he was doing this because he could. He then told me something that I bear in mind till today, “One day you’ll be around someone and he’ll need a coffee, and you’ll be able to buy it for him. That’s how you can pay me back.”
I’m a youth worker no ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w, far from the life I had ten years ago. My job is simple — I buy kids coffee. Bill taught me how to do that.

Hanukkah
Hanukkah (光 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )明节) is a Jewish festival. It is celebrated on the 25th day of the Jewish month of Kislev (犹太教历), which is usually sometime in December. It is often called the festival of lights. The festival celebrates the time, over 2,000 years ago, when the Jewish people fought against an emperor who would not let them follow their own traditions and religion. When the Jewish people won back their temple in Jerusalem, they found there was only enough holy oil to keep the sacred light burning for one day. However, to their surprise, this small amount of oil kept the light burning for eight days and nights, until the people had time to make more oil.
At the center ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of the Hanukkah celebrations is a candlestick (called a Menorah) that holds nine candles. On the first night of Hanukkah the first candle is lit, and each day this candle is used to light another candle, until on the eighth day, the last day, all the candles are lit. During Hanukkah, people go to the synagogue (犹太教堂) to pray and to remember the miracle (奇迹) of the holy oil. Hanukkah is a time for family and friends to come together. People exchange gifts and greeting cards, and children go to parties. Parents often give their children money at Hanukkah. Potato cakes, called latkes, are a traditional Hanukkah food.
24. For how many days does Hanukkah last
A. 9 B. 10 C. 8 D. 7
25. According to th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e passage, what is necessary when celebrating Hanukkah nowadays 　
A. Candles. B.. Money. C.Oil D. Cards.
26. What does the Menorah remind Jewish people about
A. The miracle of the holy oil that happened 2,000 years ago.
B. The war that they fought 2,000 years ago.
C. The God that they honored best.
D. The church they built 2,000 years ago.
The passage mainly tells us about _____.
A. why Jewish people protect their traditions
B. the history of Hanukkah and how it is celebrated
C. why Jewish people celebrate Hanukkah
D. the miracle of the holy oil in the Jewish temple

If you think Ame ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rican cooking means opening a package and throwing the contents into the microwave oven (微波炉), think again. On the one hand, it’s true that many Americans have cold cereal（谷类食品） for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant (方便的) dinners. From busy homemakers to working people, many Americans enjoy the convenience (方便) of fast food that can be ready to serve in 10 minutes or less. On the other hand, many Americans realize the importance of cooking skills. Parents — especially mothers — see the importance of training their children — especially daughters. Most Americans think that there’s nothing better than a good home-cooked meal. But with cooking, as with any other skill, good results don’t happen by accident.
Probably every cook ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) has his or her own way of cooking. But there are some basic skills that most people follow. For example, baking is a main method (方法) of preparing food in America. For that reason, Americans would find it next to impossible to live without an oven. American cooks pay special attention to the balance of foods, too. In planning a big meal they try to include meat, a few vegetables, some bread and often a dessert. They also like to make sure the meal is colorful. Having several different colors of food on the plate usually makes for a healthy meal.
For those who nee ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d guidance in their cooking, or for those who have just run out of ideas, recipes are a great help. Recipes list all the ingredients for a dish (generally in the order used), the amount of each to use, and a description of how to put them together.
This passage mainly tells us that ______.
without an oven, Americans find it impossible to live conveniently
B.Americans like to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) have several different colors of food on the plate
C. Americans us ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ually have fast food, but they pay special attention to cooking as well
D. Americans pay special attention to recipes and nutritious meals
29. Many Americans ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have cold cereal for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant dinner because ______.
A. they like instant food very much
B. they don’t like cooking at all
C. most American working people are busy and don’t have time to cook
D. fast food is delicious and it usually contains a lot of vitamins
30. By saying “But wi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )th cooking, as with any other skill, good results don’t happen by accident”, the author means ______.
A. just like any other skill, cooking may bring good results
B. cooking comes from one’s gift, not through practice
C. cooking can lead to accidents
D. Good cooking doesn’t come easily; it needs a lot of practice
31. From the passage, we know that ______.
A. Americans don’t care about food
B. Americans are not good at cooking because they like to use recipes
C. an oven plays an important role in cooking for Americans
D. while cooking, Americans usually run out of ideas
D
The sea horse ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is a magical animal, which has puzzled（使困惑）people for thousands of years. In ancient Rome sea horses were believed to be the babies of Neptune’s horses. And Neptune was the god of the ocean. Now we know they are not horses at all — they are a kind of fish. They still seem as magical as ever, especially to divers who have watched them horsing around(瞎闯) in the sea. But today, sea horse populations face an uncertain future. Fishermen are catching too many of them, and their undersea habitats （栖息地） are being destroyed.
At least 20 millio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n sea horses are taken from the ocean each year. More than 95% are used for traditional medicines in Asian countries. The sea horses are usually dried and then made into powder which is used to treat such problems as asthma（哮喘）, throat infections, skin diseases and cuts. How well the medicines work is unclear.
Sea horses are als ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o bought and sold in large numbers as pets. Sea horse expert Amanda Vincent warns against buying pet sea horses. “A lot of people treat them as if they’re goldfish,” she says. But sea horses require very special care and live food. Most captive (被猎取的) sea horses pick up diseases and die.
Sea horse experts a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re trying to teach fishermen to become sea horse farmers. Instead of pulling nets of sea horses from the ocean, fishermen could learn to raise them in specially designed saltwater “farms”. That way, fishermen would have sea horses to sell, but ocean populations would not be hurt.
Vincent and her team ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have only discovered the 35 different species of sea horses, and they still have plenty of sea horse secrets left to unlock. That is why, Vincent told TFK, protecting future sea horse populations is especially important: “I promise your readers that by the time they grow up to be marine biologists, we’ll still have a lot to learn.”
32. In the past, Romans thought the sea horse to be ______.
A. a kind of fish B. a kind of horse
C. the god of the ocean D. one of Neptune’s pets
Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage
A. 35different kinds of sea horses have been discovered.
B. Most sea horses caught are used as medicine.
C. People in Asian countries hunt sea horses for food.
D. The effects of the powder of sea horses are uncertain.
34. The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) phrase “pick up” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______”.
A. follow B. collect C. create D. get
35. It can be infer ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )red that the best way to protect sea horses is to ______.
A. teach fishermen how to farm sea horses
B. do more research on sea horses
C. stop hunting sea horses
D. ban the sea horse trade
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。
We often focus on bu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ilding relationships with others that we forget the essential first step: being friends of ourselves. 36 . How can we have good relationships with others if we don’t even have good relationships with ourselves
The problem might ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) be worse than we expect. Maybe we don’t like ourselves without realizing it. Here is a simple checklist: Is there anything you don’t like about yourself from these lists
Your past: Maybe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )you have made mistakes in the past which you feel bad about. 37 .Even if that happened in distant past, your subconscious mind still has a reason not to like yourself.
Your background: Y ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ou might wish that you were born in different family, or that you have different background. 38 . They seem to get whatever they want effortlessly because of their background.
Your personal ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )traits(特点) : You might have some personality traits that you don’t like. For example, you may be an introvert(内向) and you don’t like it; you wish you were an extrovert.
Others might ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have better achievements than you, and no matter how hard you tried, it might seem impossible for you to match them. 39 . Is there anything that resonate(产生共鸣) with you All these give reasons to you not to like yourself. That in turn makes it difficult for you to be a good friend to yourself.
40 Here are some tips:
Forgive yourself
Accept things you can’t change
Focus on your strengths
Write your success stories
Stop comparing yourself with others
Always be true to yourself
A. That is the crucia ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l(关键) first step if we are to have good relationships with others
B.You can do something to improve the relationships with others
C. Maybe you could ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )not accept the fact that you are not as lucky as others
D.You might then th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ink that it’s because you are not smart enough or don’t have enough talents
E. Fortunately ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), there are always things you can do to fix the situation
F. You might be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )disappointed with yourself on why you make such mistakes

I think that the mo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most 41 thing we ever give to each other is our attention (注意力). Especially if it’s 42 from the heart. When people are talking, there’s no need to do 43 but receive them. Listen to what they’re saying. Care about it. Most times 44 about it is even more important than understanding it.
One of my patien ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts told me that when she tried to tell her story, people often 45 to tell her that they once had something just 46 that happened to her. Her pain became a story about 47 So, finally she stopped 48 to most people because she just felt too lonely. When we interrupt what someone is 49 to let them know that we understand, we 50 the focus of attention to ourselves. But if we just 51 , they know we care. Many people with cancer can talk about the relief (宽慰) of having someone just listen.
I have 52 lea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rned to respond to someone crying by just listening. I 53 that passing a person a tissue (面巾纸) may be just another 54 to shut them down and take them out of their experience of 55 . Now I just listen. When they have 56 all they need to cry, they find me there with them.
This 57 thing ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s not been that easy to learn. It certainly went against everything I had been taught since I was very 58 . I thought people listened only 59 they were too shy to speak or did not know the 60 . A loving silence often has far more power to heal than words.

My experience of learning English after class
I'm glad I have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) won the first prize in the English Contest, which completely contributes to my after-class English learning.
I often take part in t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he English Corner and practice speaking English. There are many participants in the corner and we can talk about any topics in English. By doing this, I have improved my pronunciation and intonation. Most important of all, I have conquered my shyness and timidness. I can talk to anybody boldly in English. So I didn't feel nervous in the contest at all.
At the same time I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) insist on keeping diaries in English every day. I will try my best to bring what I have learnt to use. Thus my knowledge has been reviewed and enlarged.
I also visit ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) English reading websites to read much. Learning English depends on reading widely and largely. Those sites provide many English articles of all levels and I can find appropriate ones to read. The dictionary in the computer can help me deal with the new vocabulary quickly. Therefore I benefit much from the reading.
Above are my ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) three main learning methods of learning English after class. They are helpful and convenient to me. I hope they are also beneficial for you.
