科目:高中英語 來源:2016-2017學(xué)年寧夏高一上期中英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

If you want to become a fluent English speaker, you should take some advice: there are four skills in learning English. They are listening, speaking, reading and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.

Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc.

There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar—or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.

As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs(輸入) in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.

For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening, you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably(更好地) taking some notes.

If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically(自動地),and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.

1.According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?

A.Reading and listening.B.Reading and writing.

C.Writing and speaking.D.Speaking and listening.

2.To improve your reading, when you read you should ________.

A.look up all the new words in the dictionary

B.think about what you are reading actively

C.spend more time studying grammar

D.copy as many words and sentences as possible

3.The underlined words “come across” in paragraph 3 probably be replaced by ________.

A.meet by accidentB.discoverC.find on purposeD.look for

4.The author seems to agree with the view that ________.

A.everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day

B.you needn’t practice listening if you keep in reading every day

C.being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening

D.you should take notes of whatever you are hearing

While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can't be avoided. The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to deal with stress.

Try physical activity

When you are nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity. Running, walking, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try. Physical exercise will relieve your anxiety and worry and help you to relax. Your body and your mind will work together to ease the stress in your life.

Share your stress

It helps to talk to someone about your anxieties and worries. Perhaps a friend, family member, teacher or even your leader can help you a better view of what's troubling you. If you feel your problem is serious, you might seek professional help from a psychologist or a doctor. Knowing when to ask for help is an important step in avoiding serious problems later.

Take care of yourself

You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest. If you easily get angry and cannot sleep well enough, or if you're not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult a doctor. Make time for yourself.

Make a list of the things you need to do

Stress can result from disorganization and a feeling that "there's so much to do, and not enough time". Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result, you may not achieve anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed. Set out to do the most important tasks first.

Go ahead and cry

A good cry can be a healthy way to bring relief to your anxiety. It might even help you avoid a headache or other physical effect of anxiety and stress.

1.What is most probably the writer's purpose in writing the article?

A. To release his or her working tiredness.

B. To help solve the universal problem of stress.

C. To strengthen his or her anxiety.

D. To have more people cry out.

2.Physical activity can help people release stress because________.

A. only your body movement can help you relax

B. your mind can work better to free you of anxiety

C. your body and mind can cooperate in releasing stress

D. physical activity doesn't play an important part in reducing nervousness

3.What is similarity between "Share your stress" and "Go ahead and cry"?

A. They both help you let out your feelings.

B. They both need physical movement.

C. They both require mental relaxation.

D. They can cause a headache.

4.The underlined sentence is close to the meaning of "________".

A. Strike while the iron is hot

B. More haste, less speed

C. Practice makes perfect

D. Quietness wins time

Counterfeit (假冒的) goods, or false versions of products, may cost the government of Kenya as much as $1 billion each year. The fake goods also hurt business owners who find it hard to keep customers. But information technology is being used to try to stop the problem. Jemima Mwafigu is a 34-year-old businesswoman who sells products like perfume. But in the first year of running her business, she found it hard to keep customers because of counterfeit goods.

Ms. Mwafigu says her business has improved since she began using a smart phone application called Barcode (條碼) Scanner. The app is used to authenticate (驗證) products. It checks to make sure the products are not counterfeit.

“With this application I'm able to scan the bar codes of each perfume and instantly I get the production date, the expiration date and I'm able to know the safety,” she says. “That way, I have confidence in selling to my customers.”

In 2010, Kenya created the Anti-Counterfeit Agency, or ACA, to fight against illegal trade. The ACA has successfully asked government officials for stronger punishments for counterfeiters.

Agnes Karingu is the agency’s acting director for research and awareness. She says the ACA is trying to stay one step ahead of those making fake goods.

“We are also looking into IT solutions where we can be able to use SMS programs, bar codes and information sharing,” she says. “The end users of the products will actually be able to get the authentication information, and this information comes back to ACA and intellectual property rights holders.”

The agency is testing another program called Allvirtuous. The application is another way to find out if a product is real or not by scanning its barcode. The barcode information is sent to a database. Then a result is sent back to the app.

The International Chamber of Commerce is a global business organization. It says the value of counterfeit goods produced around the world is expected to be more than $1.7 trillion (萬億) this year.

1. What’s the main purpose of this passage?

A. To tell us that Information Technology is developing fast.

B. To persuade us to resist counterfeit goods.

C. To advise us to use phone apps while going shopping.

D. To inform us that phone apps can help stop counterfeiters’ trade.

2. Why did Kenya create ACA?

A. To raise people’s awareness of counterfeit goods.

B. To ask the government to punish counterfeiters.

C. To deal with illegal trade.

D. To look into IT solutions.

3.The underlined phrase “expiration date” in Paragraph 3 means the time when __________.

A. the product is unable to be used

B. the product is packed

C. the product is first out of the factory

D. the product is made

4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Measures should be taken immediately to prevent counterfeit goods.

B. The business of counterfeit goods is falling off.

C. The value of counterfeit goods is likely to be more than $1.7 trillion this year.

D. Counterfeit goods make a great contribution to the world economy.

Because, like most of you, I began college in my teens, but after a year, I was offered my dream job at Universal Studios, so I dropped out.

Well, I left college because I knew exactly what I wanted to do and some of you know, too — but some of you don’t. Or maybe you thought you knew but are now questioning that choice. Maybe you’re sitting there trying to find out how to tell your parents that you want to be a doctor and not a writer.

I told my parents if my movie career didn’t go well, I’d re-enroll(重新報名上學(xué)). It went all right. But finally, I returned for one big reason.

Most people go to college for an education, and some go for their parents, but I went for my kids. I’m the father of seven, and I kept insisting on the importance of going to college, but I hadn’t walked the walk. So, in my fifties, I re-enrolled at Cal State-Long Beach, and I earned my degree.

Well, what you choose to do next is what we call in the movies the ‘character-defining(角色定義) moment’.

Life is one strong, long string of character-defining moments. And I was lucky that at 18 I knew what I exactly wanted to do. But I didn’t know who I was. How could I? And how could any of us? Because for the first 25 years of our lives, we are trained to listen to voices that are not our own. Parents and professors fill our heads with wisdom and information, and then employers and tutors take their place and explain how this world really works.

And I want to be clear that your intuition(直覺) is different from your conscience. Here’s the difference: Your conscience shouts, ‘here’s what you should do,’ while your intuition whispers, ‘here’s what you could do.’ Listen to that voice that tells you what you could do. Nothing will define your character more than that.

Sticking to your character requires a lot of courage. And to be courageous, you’re going to need a lot of support. And if you’re lucky, you have parents like mine. I consider my mom my lucky charm.

But look, if your family’s not always available, there’s backup. Do you remember that movie? It’s a Wonderful Life? There’s an actor’s line in it: No man is a failure who has friends.” And I hope you hold on to the friendships you’re made here at Harvard. And among your friends, I hope you find someone you want to share your life with.

1.In the writer’s opinion, why can’t we define ourselves before 25 years old?

A. Because we are not old enough.

B. Because we are used to listening to others’ voices.

C. Because our parents and professors ask us to listen to the voices of our employers.

D. Because we can’t find suitable jobs.

2.According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A. The writer completed his college study in his teens.

B. The writer’s movie career didn’t go all right so he returned to college.

C. It was not until he was 25 years old that the writer knew what he exactly wanted to do.

D. The writer suggests we should listen to our intuition.

3.What do the last two paragraphs mainly tell us?

A. It takes much courage to insist on your character.

B. It’s important to find a boyfriend or a girlfriend at Harvard.

C. There are some supporters who should be valued in our life.

D. The movie It’s a Wonderful Life is worth watching.

4.The passage is most likely to be ________.

A. a speechB. a reportC. a film reviewD. an advertisement
