第一节 阅读理解 ( 共 10 小题;每小题 2 分, 满分 20 分 )
A
Nearly all of us have a bad habit, whether we know it or not. Some people say they
want to get rid of(摆脱) it but don’t know the proper ways. Here’s some advice on how to
get rid of bad habits.
Make a list. Write down why you want to stop a certain behavior, how it’s hurting you
and how to get rid of it. This will help a lot. Look at that list regularly.
Join in other activities. It’s wise of you to do something else when you want to stop
your bad habits. If you get angry easily, for example, you can practice having a deep
breath or going for a walk.
Give yourself a present. Before you take action against a bad habit, decide what you’ll
do to celebrate it if you reach your goal.
Keep off bad habits. If you are fat and want to lose weight, keep junk food out of your
house. If you are a heavy smoker with coffee, turn to tea and keep away from friends who
like smoking.
Be patient. Bad habits develop over years, so you probably won’t be able to get rid of
them quickly. In fact, people often give up several times before being successful, so you
should be patient.
Find support. Don’t be afraid to ask for support from friends, family or other people
who have the same bad habits as you. When you talk to others, they might be able to
provide advice or encouragement that you usually wouldn’t get from yourself.
21. If you want to lose weight, you should .
A. drink more coffee B. refuse the junk food
C. find support from friends D. find a heavy smoker
22. Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?
A. It’s not easy to get rid of bad habits in a short time.
B. You can write down the reasons for getting rid of bad habits.
C. When talking to others, you can get what you can’t get from yourself.
D. When you want to stop your bad habits, don’t do anything.
23. From the passage you can learn .
A. how to get rid of bad habits B. why we have some bad habits
C. what to do to have a bad habit D. where to find some support高一英语试卷第 4 页 ( 共 10 页)

A person is on trial for murder in a court room in Oklahoma. There is strong evidence
indicating that he is guilty(有罪的). However, the dead body is not found.
In the defense’s (辩护方) closing speech, the lawyer, knowing that his client (委托人) is
guilty and that it looks like he’ll probably be seriously punished, decided to play a clever
trick.
“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury (陪审团), I have a surprise for you all,” the lawyer
says as he looks at his watch. “Within one minute, the person assumed dead in this case
will walk into this court room,” he says and he looks towards the court-room door. The
jury, somewhat surprised, looks at the door eagerly. A minute passes. Nothing happens.
Finally the lawyer says, “Actually, I made up the previous statement. But you all
waited with expectation. I, therefore, put it to you that there is a reasonable doubt in this
case as to whether anyone was killed and insist that you pass a judgment of no guilty.”
The jury, clearly confused, back off to discuss.
A very few minutes later, the jury returned and one of them pronounces a verdict (裁
决) of guilty.
“But how?” asks the lawyer in surprise. “You must have had some doubt; I saw all of
you stare at the door.”
Answers the jury member, “Oh, we did look. But your client didn’t.”
24. Why was the person on trial according to the passage?
A. Because he couldn’t pay off the debts.
B. Because he probably killed somebody.
C. Because he didn’t pay the tax in time.
D. Because he planned to cheat the jury.
25. Why did the lawyer come up with the trick?
A. To find the body. B. To frighten the jury.
C. To help his client. D. To save himself.
26. Why did the jury look at the door eagerly?
A. The lawyer’s words must be true.
B. They expected the dead person’s family to come in.
C. They were surprised and cheated by the lawyer.
D. They thought the person on trial was escaping. 高一英语试卷第 5 页 ( 共 10 页)
27. What did the jury member’s answer mean in the last paragraph?
A. They firmly believed that nobody was killed.
B. The behavior of the client gave him away.
C. The jury still needed more evidence to prove it.
D. The lawyer’s words were worth thinking about.
C
Parents who have books in the home increase the level of education their children will
attain(获得), whether rich or poor, according to a 20-year study led by Mariah Evans.
For years, educators have thought the strongest predictor(预示物) of attaining high
levels of education was having parents who were highly educated. But, the study showed
that the difference between being raised in a bookless home compared to being raised in a
home with a 500-book library has as great an effect on the level of education a child will
attain as the difference between having parents who are barely literate (有文化的) and
having parents who have a university education.
Being a sociologist, Evans was particularly interested to find that children of
less-educated parents benefit the most from having books in the home. What kinds of
investments should we make to help these kids get ahead? The results of this study indicate
that getting some books into their homes is an inexpensive way that we can help these
children succeed. Evans said, "Even a little bit goes a long way. Having as few as 20 books
in the home still has a significant impact on motivating a child to a higher level of
education, and the more books you add, the greater benefit the children get.”
The researchers were struck by the strong effect having books in the home had on
children's educational attainment even above and beyond such factors as education level of
the parents, the father's occupation or the economic level of the country.
Having books in the home is twice as important as the father's education level, and
more important than whether a child was brought up in a developing country or a
developed country. Surprisingly, the difference in educational attainment for children
born in a developed country and children born in a developing country was just 2 years,
less than two-thirds of the effect that having 500 or more books in the home had on
children.
28. In the past educators held a point of view that ______ .
A. children whose family had a library would possibly attain high levels of education
B. children who were born in poor families studied harder than those in rich families
C. children whose parents are highly educated would attain high levels of education高一英语试卷第 6 页 ( 共 10 页)
D. parents’ level of education had nothing to do with their children’s levels of education
29. What does the underlined word “motivating” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Making somebody want to do something.
B. Helping somebody to finish something
C. Making somebody pretend to do something.
D. Preventing somebody from achieving something.
30. Which of the following has the most important effect on the level of education a child
will gain?
A. The economic level of the country. B. The father’s occupation.
C. Education levels of parents. D. Having books in the home.
第二节 七选五(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最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you want to be excellent in study? Add these tips to your life and you should be on
your way to being an excellent student!
Pay attention to everything the teacher says. I cannot stress how important it is to pay
attention to what your teacher is teaching you. Take part in class discussions if you have
something worthwhile to add. 31 .
Taking notes is important. You don’t need to write down every single word your
teacher says but write down what he/she writes on the board, or any special fact you think
you might need for a test. 32 . This way it will help you learn more effectively by
actually thinking about what you are writing.
Don’t skip school. You will be missing out on stuff(东西). 33 . However, you will
have more work and you have missed lectures and in-class movies. Also, try not to be late
for class. It’s most likely that your teacher won’t appreciate it and you will get yourself
behind.
Keep a good attitude towards things. 34 , then teachers will be less willing to help
you with problems or offer you extra credit. The same goes for lazy attitude. Have a
respectful attitude to the teacher and other students. Try not to laugh when other students
make a mistake.
35 . There is no shame in needing some help. If you don’t understand, ask
someone. Read your textbook and notes, and then if that fails, seek help. Ask a teacher,
friend, classmate, parent, etc. Get a tutor if you are really a poor learner.
A. Enjoy your class
B. Always ask questions
C. Write in your own words
D. When you do poorly in your study
E. It is true that you could make up the work
F. If you have an “I don’t care about study” attitude高一英语试卷第 7 页 ( 共 10 页)

参考范文:
Dear Confused daughter,
I’m deeply concerned about your situation. Therefore, I’m writing to offer you following
practical suggestions:
First, it’s wise to understand your mum and her love to you, because understanding is the
first step to solution. Besides, talk to her face to face and ask her to give you some private space.
Just imagine how she hopes to narrow the generation gap. Finally, why not do something to earn
her trust? You can get her involved in some of your daily activities. If so, she will be relieved to
find her daughter reliable and promising.
Above is my advice, which may help make your life a lot easier. Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua

W: Rick, there will be a rock concert at Riverside Theater tonight. Do you want to go?
M: It sounds interesting. When will it begin?
W: Let me see… It will begin at 7:30 this evening.
M: But I told our daughter that we might go out to dinner tonight.(8) I should have told you
earlier.
W: She told me about that. We can take her along.We can eat first and then go to the concert.
M: That sounds perfect. How much are the tickets?
W: $ 20 per ticket for adults and half that price per ticket for children under 10 years old.

M: Luckily, our daughter is nine.(9) We’d better hurry, though. We don’t have very much time
to enjoy our meal.

W: Let’s go to the pandas first. Then I want to see the giraffes. They are my favorite, because
they are so tall!
M: Well, the snake area is what I want to go to, and it is on the way to the other animals, so let’s
see snakes first. (10)
W: OK.(10) And don’t forget about the bird area!
M: We may not make it to the birds. I told your mother we would meet her at the Zoo’s
Restaurant at 5 o’clock now. We have to have dinner and then leave before the zoo closes
at 6 o’clock.(11) It’s 4 o’clock now, so we just have an hour to visit some of the animals.
W: All right, Daddy! We are losing time sitting in this parking lot. Let’s go buy tickets and get
inside!(12)
M: Right. Let’s go. (12)

W: To start with, tell me about your education, please.
M: All right. I will graduate from Columbia University next year. I’m majoring in
international business.(13)
W: Are you single or married?高一英语试卷第 15 页 ( 共 10 页)
M: I’m still single. I’d rather have a career before I start a family.
W: That’s the kind of man we are looking for. Our work requires a lot of travel.(14) So, do
you mind going on business trips? There will be six to ten trips abroad every month.
M: Six to ten? Hmm…that is quite a lot…
W: Yes. This job is not for everyone.
M: Uh…I think it will be a challenge for me,(15) but I can do it. At least I’ll never be bored!
W: Good. Well, it has been most pleasant talking with you. We’ll inform you of our final
decision in three days.(16)
M: Thank you, Mrs. Hudson. I hope to see you soon.
W: Goodbye.

I was walking around the other day when I saw a sign for The Bookworm. It’s a
really cool café that has great food,(17) and sometimes they have music and other special
events. Well, I happened to hear that Peter Hessler was going to be speaking at 7:30 that very
night. Peter Hessler is probably my favorite writer at the moment. He used to write about China
for the The New Yorker, and he also wrote 3 books about his experience living and working in
Beijing. I was so excited to hear him speaking that I went right over to The Bookworm at
7:00,(18) took a seat at the bar, and waited for him to arrive. I waited and waited, but he didn’t
show up. Finally, at 8:30, I asked one of the staff when Peter Hessler was supposed to be
there.(19)“Peter Hessler?” he replied, “He’s not supposed to be here tonight. He was here last
month, though.”It was then that I realized my mistake. I had come on the right day, just not
in the right month!(20)
