Connecting five river systems and four provinces, it ends at Beijing in the North and Hangzhou in the south. For this reason, it is officially called the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. In 486 B.C.,the leader of the State of Wu,to transport goods to the northern areas of China,constructed a man-made channel using already existing waterways to link the Yangtze and Huai rivers. It was this channel that laid the foundation for the future longer Grand Canal. More than 1000 years later,Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty had the old canals rebuilt and connected to form what we know today as the Grand Canal. Then in 1403,Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty transferred his capital from Nanjing to Beijing. In order to feed all those moving North, he had to transport grain from the south along the Grand Canal. To restore the Canal,more than 47,000 men were employed. The canal soon became the economic lifeline of the empire. Grain was not the only trade goods transported North on the waterways.Salt was another, as well as wine and tea. Goods traded from the North included cotton, wool,coal, flour,precious stones, and dried meat. At times, more than 120,000 soldiers and officers were needed to operate the almost 12,000 ships that annually travelled the Grand Canal. With the expansion of the railway system in the mid-1800s, the Grand Canal became less and less important to traders. Today,few goods are transported along its waterways.Still, the current South-North Water Transfer Project proves that the Chinese government still sees the Grand Canal important to the welfare of China, The aim of this costly project is to divert huge amounts of water every year from the Yangtze River to the drier regions in the north. 24. What is special about the Grand Canal? A. It can date back to the Sui Dynasty. B. It has a history of less than1,000 years. 6 C.It runs from New York to Florida. D.It is the longest canal across the world. 25. What can we learn about the function of the Grand Canal? A. It was first constructed to convey officers. B. It was employed for wars by Emperor Yongle. C. It used to transport goods between south and north. D.It is now carrying more goods than the railway system. 26.What does the underlined word “divert” in the last paragraph refer to? A.Transfer. B.Recycle. C.Conserve. D.Clarify. 27. Where is the text most likely from? A.A diary.B.A magazine. C.A novel. D.A biography. C New research indicates that a person's neighborhood may play a large role in influencing decisions to commute(通勤）by bike.The study,published recently in the Journal of Transport and Land Use, could give city planners new ideas about how to design neighborhoods, streets and bike paths with active commuting in mind, said Yuiin Park, lead author of the study. The study was based on a survey of 1, 200 people who commuted to The Ohio State University. About 12.6 percent of those people classified themselves as bicyclists, and about 5.4 percent reported that a bicycle was their main choice of transportation to campus. People.who lived in high-density(高密度） areas were more than twice as likely to commute by bike as people in medium-density areas and more than three times as likely to commute by bike as people in suburban areas. Both bicyclists and non-bicyclists in the survey agreed that bicycling was environmentally friendly,created health benefits and would save money. It indicates that recognizing the benefits of bicycling is not enough to push non-bicyclists to start commuting on two wheels. However, most bicyclists surveyed said they would commute by bike more frequently if they had access to more bike' paths, bike-sharing opportunities and covered parking for their bikes. Non-bicyclists who lived in high-density neighborhoods appeared to be more concerned about safety-both from other vehicles and from crime-when traveling by bike than their friends who commute by bike. Park finally said that the conditional willingness to ride a bicycle to commute gradually decreases from high-density neighborhoods to low-density, single-family neighborhoods. She also said that if campus, city and regional planners want to increase the percentage of people commuting by bike, they might want to target public investment in protected bike paths and bike parking near downtown and campus areas. 28. What can we learn about the participants from paragraph 2? A.They live near the Ohio State University. 7 B.Quite a few of them commute by bicycle. C.They are students from the Ohio State University. D.People living downtown are most likely to ride bikes. 29.Non-bicyclists are more concerned about A. narrow bicycle paths B.potential safety risks C.few sharing chances D. poor parking facilities 30.How can city planners encourage more people to commute by bike? A. By requiring university students to ride bikes. B.By investing more money in purchasing bikes. C.By building safe paths and parking for cyclists. D.By educating people about the benefits of cycling. 31. What is the text mainly about? A.Campuses should be designed as bike-friendly areas. B.People are supposed to commute downtown by bike. C.Neighborhood may affect people's commuting choices. D.Commuting by bike makes neighbourhood more active. D The weather was ideal. There could not have been a more perfect day for a garden party. The gardeners had been up since dawn,cutting the lawns and sweeping them until the grass seemed to shine. As to the roses, you could not help feeling they understood that roses are the only flowers that impress people at garden parties. Breakfast was not over before the men came to put up the big tent. “Where do you want the tent put, mother?" “My dear child, it is no use asking me. I'm determined to leave everything to you children this year. Forget I am your mother. Treat me as an honored guest." But Meg could not possibly go and inspect the men. She had washed her hair before breakfast, and sat drinking her coffee with a green towel round her head, and a dark wet curl stuck onto each cheek. Jose,the butterfly,came down in a silk petticoat and a kimono jacket. “You will have to go,Laura,you are the artistic one." Off Laura went, still holding her piece of bread and butter. It is so delicious to have an excuse for eating outside and, besides, she loved having to arrange things; she always felt she. could do it so much better than anybody else. 8 Four men carried poles covered with rolls of canvas and they had big tool bags on their backs. They looked impressive. Laura wished now that she was not holding that piece of bread and butter,but there was nowhere to put it and she couldn't possibly throw it away. She blushed(脸红） and tried to look severe and even a little bit short-sighted as she came up to them. ＂Good morning,"she said,copying her mother's voice. But it sounded so awful that she was ashamed, and hesitated, like a little girl, “Oh-erm-have you come -is it about the tent?” “That's right, miss,” said the tallest of the men, and he moved his tool bag, pushed back his straw hat and smiled down at her."That's it.” 32. Who is responsible for the garden party? A.Jose. B.Laura. C. Meg. D.Mother. 33.How did Laura feel when meeting the workmen? A. Frightened. B.Shocked. C.Awkward. D.Confused. 34.Which of the following can best describe Laura? A.Childish and nervous. B.Artistic and forgetful. C. Determined and serious. D.Dependent and honest. 35.Which is the best title for the text? A. The tent to build." B. The men at work. C.The party to come. D.The gardeners on duty. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，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。 36 Involving yourself in an activity that makes you breathe a little more heavily will improve the development of your heart and lungs and help them work more effectively and efficiently.

For some reason,I thought we needed to earn some money.I decided we should "hire out" as maids. We visited the neighbors, offering to clean houses for them for a quarter cents. Reasonable as our offer was,there were no takers. But one neighbor telephoned Mother to let her know what Mary Alice and Sally Kay were doing.Mother had just hung up the phone when we came bursting through the back door, into the kitchen of our apartment. “Girls,” Mother asked, “ Why were you two going around the neighborhood telling people you would clean their houses?” 12 Mother wasn't angry with us. In fact, we learned afterwards, she was amused that we had come up with such an idea. But, for some reason, we both denied having done any' such thing. Shocked and terribly hurt that her dear little girls could be such“bold-faced( 厚 颜 无 耻 的 ） liars,"Mother then told us that Mrs. Jones had just called to tell her we had been to her house and said we would clean it for a quarter. Faced with the truth, we admitted what we had done. Mother said that we had“fibbed（撒个 小谎）。”We had not told the truth.She tried to explain why a fib hurt but she didn't feel that we really understood. Mother decided to teach us a lesson, one that we never forgot. Then an idea came to her in a flash. She cheerfully continued preparing for lunch. 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150 词左右（每段开头已给出，不计入总词数）； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 As we were chewing on sandwiches, she asked, “Would you two like to go to the movies this afternoon?” Mother bent and gathered us in her arms with tears in her eyes. 2021 届高三年级第一学期期中调研考试 英语答案 第一部分 听力（共 20 小题，每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 1-5 BABCB 6-10 ACBAA 11-15 CBBCA 16-20 CCCAB 第二部分 阅读理解（共 20 小题，每小题 2.5 分，满分 50 分） 21-25 DBCDC 26-30 ABDBC 31-35 CBCAC 36-40 FGCDA 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分 30 分） 13 第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 41-45 DBCAC 46-50 DCABD 51-55 BADCA 第二节（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分） 56. is approaching 57. where 58. it 59. higher 60. what 61. setting 62. failure 63. but 64. a 65. turning 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分 40 分） 第一节（满分 15 分） Dear Owen, So glad to know you are fond of Chinese classics. Journey to the West written by Wu Cheng’en is a must-read for you. Set in the Tang Dynasty, it describes the tough journey of a monk Xuanzang to fetch sutras from India with some animal spirits, including the Monkey King. The story is not only entertaining with magical tricks, but inspiring in terms of courage and persistence. Additionally, you will enjoy being exposed to abundant Chinese folk stories. Honestly, its mixture of fantasy and reality is my favourite.（80 words） Hope that you will love it. Yours sincerely, Li Hua 第二节（满分 25 分） As we were chewing on sandwiches, she asked, “Would you two like to go to the movies this afternoon?” “Wow! Fantastic!” We soon got bathed and dressed up. It was like getting ready for a birthday party. We hurried outside the apartment, not wanting to miss the bus that would take us downtown. On the landing, Mother astonished us by saying, “Girls, we are not going to the movies today.” “What?” We couldn’t believe our ears. “What do you mean? Mommy, you SAID it!” 14 Mother bent and gathered us in her arms with tears in her eyes. She gently explained that this was what a fib felt like. “It is important that what we SAY is TRUE,” Mother said, “I fibbed to you just now and it felt awful. I don’t want to fib again and I’m sure you don’t either.” That is how my sister and I learned to be truthful. We have never forgotten how much a fib can hurt. (150 words) 录音稿 (Text 1) W: Marco and I want to do something to help the flood victims. M: What are you going to do? W: We’re going to do a charity walk tomorrow. (Text 2) M: If you need the book, I can bring it round to your house tonight. Will you be in? W: Well, I’ve got an English class until seven o’clock, but I’ll be back about half an hour after that. M: OK, that’s fine. I’m meeting Richard in a cafe at eight, but I can come round to your place first. (Text 3) W: Hello. I bought a nice T-shirt from here — with a picture of horses on it. Do you know if you have any more? I’d like one for my friend. M: Well, they should be over there on the shelf. (Text 4) W: I went to the movies with my friends last Saturday. How about you? M: Well, my parents and I planned to go to the seaside and have a picnic, but before we left, my dad checked a travel website which said there would be traffic jams. So we went to the country park instead. (Text 5) M: You seem a little warm. Let me take your temperature. Yes, you have a fever. W: Really? I hope I won’t be too sick to go to work. M: You’d better take a few days off. I’ll give you some medicine and be sure to get more rest and drink lots of water. (Text 6) 15 W: Well, I think all the applicants were really good today! M: I’m not sure if I agree, Jenny. I wasn’t so impressed with them. W: Really? I thought John seemed really enthusiastic and Peter has some excellent qualifications. M: John doesn’t have enough experience and Peter has only just finished college. We need people with lots of experience who can take on lots of responsibility. W: But what about Paula? She has two years’ experience working in a bank. M: I suppose so. And she has good qualifications. She would need extra training if we decide to employ her. W: Absolutely. (Text 7) W: Thank you for meeting me, Dr. Freeman. M: It’s my pleasure. I’m glad to be here. W: Sorry for the short notice, but we’re hoping to air this story on tonight’s evening news. The producer already briefed you about our interview, right? M: Yes, she told me we’re going to discuss the research results of our study. W: Yes, hopefully the results will encourage more people to recycle and care for the environment. The interview should take about thirty minutes. Are you ready to begin? M: Sure, let’s start. W: Good evening. Today with me is Dr. Freeman. And you know he is … (Text 8) W: So, Eric, how is life in Greenland these days? M: Oh, you know. Winters are long. I live on the coast, though, so I get to see the ocean every day. That’s always nice. W: I heard that winters in Greenland are somewhat shorter than they used to be — global warming, I guess? M: Yes, that’s true. They’re calling it “the greening of Greenland”. W: The “greening”? What does that mean? M: Well, the average temperature in Greenland is rising twice as fast as in other places. So, now I have a few trees near my house. Trees didn’t use to exist in Greenland, you know! And we, um, people are growing some vegetables now — cabbage, potatoes, and things like that. And farmers can grow more grass for their animals. 16 (Text 9) W: Jack. It’s very unusual for you to be so late. What happened? M: I managed to get the train, but it was really crowded and it was a terrible journey. W: How come? M: The train was full of immature students who thought it was funny to set off the emergency alarm. W: Oh, no! M: So we stopped in the middle of nowhere, and it took the guard forever to deal with the kids and call the police. I got a bit impatient after a while and argued with the guard, who then made me get off the train. Then I had to wait an hour for the next train because it was delayed! W: Oh, dear! So you haven’t had supper yet? M: No. I’m really hungry. W: OK. Supper is ready. (Text 10) W: I’ve just discovered a fantastic new show called How Do They Do That?. The idea is simple. Take a topic — like travel, for example and then think of lots of little mysteries that could be explained. How do planes take off and land? That sort of thing. Then get two young, enthusiastic hosts in a lab to do lots of exciting experiments. Add some pictures to explain the process to the audience and that’s the show. Get the idea? Each edition looks at a different subject. As well as travel, topics that have already been covered include education, the body, things around the house and magic — my favorite so far. Still to come are personal finances, the natural world, sports, and life and how to live it. The one I’m personally looking forward to the most is how to meet the perfect partner. But some of my friends would like to know how to eat chocolate without putting on weight. What I like most about the show is that it’s fun and you learn something at the same time, so you don’t feel so guilty about spending 60 minutes in front of the TV each week. So if you aren’t already watching How Do They Do That?, I strongly recommend that you make the time. You’ll never think it boring. It’s on every Tuesday at 9 p.m. but this week’s edition won’t be shown until half an hour later because of the live international soccer game. Get watching and start learning!
