2019-2020学年浙江省杭州四中本部高一（上）期中英语试卷

‎2019-2020学年浙江省杭州四中本部高一（上）期中英语试卷 第一部分 阅读理解 第一节（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将选项涂黑．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎1.     If you're planning on traveling,  there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey．     First of all,  always check and double﹣check departure （起程） time． It is amazing how few people really do this carefully． Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten． My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10: 50． When I arrived at the airport,  the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed． Therefore,  I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting．     The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards,  it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency （货币） with you when you arrive in a country． This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit． A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa,  Oklahoma． I flew there from London via （经由） Dallas,  with very little time to change planes in between． I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed． The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars,  I offered to pay in pounds instead．     "Listen! I only take real money!" the driver said angrily． Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel,  but it was embarrassing．     The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave． I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suit and raincoats in May,  when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester,  to places like Athens,  Rome or Madrid,  where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day． ‎ ‎（1）Where is the writer most probably from？________‎ A. The USA B. Italy C. Britain D. Greece．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？________‎ A. You don't have to take credit cards when travelling．‎ B. The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations．‎ C. You should know more about the weather of the place you'll visit．‎ D. It's unnecessary to check the departure time carefully．．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（3）The writer mainly tells us________．‎ A. how to be well prepared for a trip B. how to make life easier C. how to enjoy ourselves on a trip D. how to plan our trip．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎2.     At first glance,  the business world is no place for young women． as my cofounders and I have been told on many occasions． In spite of this pessimistic view of women's opportunity in business,  We three college﹣age girl with zero experience in business started off with a highly ambitious goal:  to start a seaweed farm in North Carolina,  and grow as much seaweed as possible to help reduce carbon emissions（排放）and nutrient pollution from agricultural sources．     In the beginning,  our ideas were either ignored or scoffed by the researchers from whom we sought help and advice． But we carried on with our research﹣if others wouldn′t provide us answers,  we weren't afraid to try to work them out ourselves． We discovered which species could grow in warmer waters,  and we'd identified potential markets into which we planned to sell the product． We've spent the last two years setting up the first seaweed farm in NC,  applying for a patent（专利）and competing with five final teams in front of the United Nations for $1 million．     Despite all of our efforts,  many industry experts remained unwilling to take us seriously． But as often happens in business,  the same characteristics we were ignored for were,  in reality,  our biggest competitive advantage． Our age gave us the strength to bounce back from failure,  and our background as environmental scientists,  rather than businesswomen,  helped us find new marketing opportunities． For every 10 farmers who claimed nobody would ever want to feed their cows seaweed,  we found one who was interested． For every 15 cosmetics producers who refused to answer our cold calls,  we stuck to the one with an interesting idea for a seaweed lotion．     Over the course of our early business development efforts,  we have had access to a wealth of resources,  programs,  and individuals who work constantly to help us succeed． By staying focused on bringing our ideas to light,  our team has demonstrated that entrepreneurship（创业）is exactly the right place for the hopeful． ‎ ‎（1）What was the major cause for their difficultly in starting business？________‎ A. They were young． B. They were women． C. They lacked experience． D. They suffered prejudice．． ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）What did they do to make their business successful according to the passage？________‎ A. They experimented on seaweed species．‎ B. They expanded their seaweed farms．‎ C. They got their product officially recognized．‎ D. They consulted the United Nations．．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（3）What is the third paragraph mainly about？________‎ A. How they got others interested in seaweed．‎ B. How they benefited from their weaknesses．‎ C. How they made themselves more competitive．‎ D. How they approached potential customers．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎3.     Village Opera ‎ 第9页 共12页 ◎ 第10页 共12页 ‎    It was the custom in Luchen where we lived for married women who were not yet in charge of the household to go back to their parents' home for the summer． Although my father's mother was then still quite strong,  my mother had quite a few household duties． She could not spend many days at her own home during the summer． She could take a few days only after visiting the ancestral graves． At such times I always went with her to stay in her parents' house． It was in a place called Pingchao Village,  not far from the sea,  a very out﹣of﹣the﹣way little village on a river,  with less than thirty households,  peasants,  and fishermen,  and just one tiny grocery．…     We spent most of our days digging up worms,  putting them on little hooks made of copper wire,  and lying on the river bank to catch shrimps． Shrimps are the silliest water creatures:  they willingly use their own pincers to push the point of the hook into their mouths;  so in a few hours we could catch a big bowlful． It became the custom to give these shrimps to me． Another thing we did was to take the buffaloes out together,  but,  maybe because they are animals of a higher species,  oxen and buffaloes are hostile to strangers,  and they treated me with contempt so that I never dared get too close to them． I could only follow at a distance and stand there．…     What I looked forward to most was going to Chaochuang to see the opera． Chaochuang was a slightly larger village about two miles away． Since Pingchiao was too small to afford to put on operas,  every year it contributed some money for a performance at Chaochuang． At the time,  I wasn't curious why they should have operas every year．     Thinking about it now,  I dare say it may have been for the late spring festival or for the village sacrifice． That year when I was eleven or twelve,  the long﹣awaited day arrived． But as ill luck would have it,  there was no boat for hire that morning． Pingchiao Village had only one sailing boat,  which left in the morning and came back in the evening． This was a large boat which it was out of the question to hire;  and all the other boats were unsuitable because they were too small． Someone was sent round to the neighbouring villages to ask if they had boats,  but no﹣they had all been hired already． My grandmother was very upset,  blamed my cousins for not hiring one earlier,  and began to complain． Mother tried to comfort her by saying the operas at Luchen were much better than in these little villages,  and there were several every year,  so there was no need to go today． But I was nearly in tears from disappointment,  and mother did her best to impress on me that no matter what,  I must not make a scene,  because it would upset my grandmother;  and I mustn't go with other people either,  for then grandmother would be worried． In a word,  it had fallen through． After lunch,  when all my friends had left and the opera had started,  I imagined I could hear the sound of gongs and drums,  and saw them,  with my mind's eye,  in front of the stage buying soya﹣bean milk． I didn't catch shrimps that day,  and didn't eat much either． Mother was very upset,  but there was nothing she could do． By supper time grandmother realized how I felt,  and said I was quite right to be angry,  they had been too negligent,  and never before had guests been treated so badly． After the meal,  youngsters who had come back from the opera gathered round and gaily described it all for us． I was the only one silent;  they all sighed and said how sorry they were for me． Suddenly one of the brightest,  called Shuang﹣hsi,  had an inspiration,  and said:  "A big boat﹣hasn't Eighth Grand﹣uncle's boat come back? " A dozen other boys picked up the idea in a flash,  and at once started agitating to take the boat and go with me． I cheered up． But grandmother was nervous,  thinking we were all children and undependable．And mother said that since the grown﹣ups all had to work the next day,  it wouldn't be fair to ask them to go with us and stay up all night． While our fate hung in the balance,  Shuang﹣hsi went to the root of the question and declared loudly:  "I give my word it'll be all right! It's a big boat,  Brother Hsun never jumps around,  and we can all swim!" It was true． There wasn't one boy in the dozen who wasn't a fish in water,  and two or three of them were first﹣rate swimmers． Grandmother and mother were convinced and did not raise any more objections．They both smiled,  and we immediately rushed out． ‎ ‎（1）According to the passage， why does the narrator spend time in his mother's parents' home？________‎ A. His grandmother insists that he come with his mother．‎ B. He always goes with his mother when she visits there．‎ C. He lives with his grandmother most of the year．‎ D.

Traditions are meant to be changed．‎ C. Disappointments are a part of life．‎ D.
