河北定州中学2016-2017学年第二学期 高三英语周练试题（5.7）‎ 一、阅读理解 As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.‎ Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”‎ The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”‎ ‎1．．The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to _________.‎ A. report on the findings of a study B. teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table C. show the relationship between parents and children D. give information about family problems ‎2．．Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ____________.‎ A. they are busy serving food to their children B. they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family C. they have to pay more attention to younger children D. they are busy keeping order at the dinner table ‎3．．By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children ______.‎ A. have to help their parents to serve dinner B. find it hard to keep up with other children C. are often kept away from the dinner table D. get the least attention from the family ‎4．．Lewis’ research provides an answer to the question _________.‎ A. why TV is important in family life B. why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life C. why children in small families seem to be quieter D. why parents should keep good order ‎5．．Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?‎ A. Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.‎ B. It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.‎ C. It is important to have the right food for children.‎ D. Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner ‎ ‎ You probably know you should say “please” and “thank you” at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?‎ Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can’t hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears. So even if you are alone when listening to our MP3 players, you shouldn’t turn it up too high.‎ Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 off and put it away. Libraries, and schools don’t allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don’t have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it doesn’t make sense to listen on your MP3 player at event. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.‎ Take One Out! Once in a while it’s okay just to take out one earphone and not other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it’s not for you.‎ It’s Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.‎ ‎6．The underlined word “volume” in Paragraph Two probably means “_________.”‎ A. the type of music B. the amount of a sound C. the length of a song D. the colour of an MP3 player ‎ ‎7．No one wants to listen to_________from others’ MP3 players.‎ A. a loud sound B. sad stories ‎ ‎ C. a long movie D. the words of a song ‎43. We should turn down the music when we are alone because loud music_________.‎ A. is not enjoyable B. makes us tired ‎ C. is bad for MP3 players D. hurts our ears ‎8． If we listen to our MP3 player at a play, _________.‎ A. the theatre won’t allow it B. the actors will get angry C. others won’t hear the play well D. we will miss part of the play ‎9．We can take one earphone out when we _________.‎ A. show others the way B. talk to friends on the phone C. watch a sporting event D. have dinner with our parents ‎ ‎ If your job requires a lot of sitting, you could be putting your health at danger.‎ The American Journal of Epidemiology (流行病学) did a study in 2010 on the correlation (相互联系) between sitting and an individual's physical health. In the study, 53,440 working men and ‎ 69,776 working women were surveyed on their time spent sitting. The subjects were all disease free when employed. The researchers identified 11,307 deaths in men and 7,923 deaths in women during the 14-year follow-up.‎ The findings: Women who reported sitting for more than six hours per day had an approximately 40 higher all-cause death rate than those who reported less than three hours a day, and men had an approximately 20 higher death rate.‎ Well, now's a fine time to get this information. But why didn't they tell me this years ago? I would have planned on taking a more active job instead of the sedentary (坐着的) job of an editor.‎ So what can you do if you have to work for a living at a job that requires a lot of sitting? Here are some ideas:‎ Take frequent breaks. It is recommended that workers vary activities, change their position, and take short breaks every 20 minutes to rest muscles and increase blood circulation. Get a standing desk. Some studies have shown that working from an upright position may be better for health. The serious fitness people can even purchase a treadmill (跑步机) desk. It only goes about one mile per hour. Have a walking meeting. If your group is kind of small, going for a walk while discussing topics is a good alternative.‎ ‎10．According to the text, the study in 2010 ______.‎ A. found men reporting shorter sitting time than women B. surveyed more men than women on their daily sitting time C. identified fewer deaths in men than in women during the 14-year follow-up D. discovered correlation between sitting and physical health in men and in women ‎11．We can infer from the text that the author did not recommend ______.‎ A. using a standing desk B. resting one's muscles C. quitting sedentary jobs D. taking a walk while discussing ‎12．What does the underlined word "subjects" in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A. Things being discussed. B. People being studied.‎ C. Areas of knowledge being learned. D. Objects being painted.‎ ‎13．What is the main idea of the text?‎ A. Your job could be killing you.‎ B. Working out leads to health risks.‎ C. Long-time sitting is positively associated with health.‎ D. A study on sitting time and physical health was completed.‎ ‎ ‎ Tech-Camp No.6 Devon Road, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong a technology day camp for students 12-17‎ About Tech-Camp Tech-Camp is a day camp with a focus on computers and electronics technology.

We encourage them to think creatively，学生们将会学习如何团队合作和独立解决问题，以及学习创意思维。故D正确。‎ ‎16．A考查细节理解题。根据Fee: HK $2,000 per student (10% discount available for groups of 10 or more students.)可以知道20个学生费用为HK $36,000。故A项正确。‎ 考点：广告文体类阅读理解 ‎ ‎ ‎17．A ‎18．B ‎19．C ‎20．A ‎21．C ‎22．D ‎23．D ‎24．B ‎25．A ‎26．C ‎27．D ‎28．A ‎29．B ‎30．B ‎31．D ‎【解析】略 ‎32．1. he is eighteen. is → was ‎2. what to drive. what → how ‎3. patient for him . for → with ‎4. at his brother his → my ‎5. he had decided .去掉had ‎6. weren't especially weren't → wasn't ‎7. Unfortunate, he .. Unfortunate → Unfortunately ‎8. first time .. first前加the ‎9. proud or exciting. exciting → excited ‎0. it was finishing. finishing → finished ‎【解析】‎ 第一处：考查时态。由下文可知，该文介绍的是发生在过去的事情。故该空应用过去进行时态，不可用现在进行时态。‎ 第二处：考查特殊疑问词。句意：一开始，父亲教给他如何驾驶。what意为“什么”，“how”意为“如何”。‎ 第三处：考查介词。be patient with sb.意为“对某人有耐心”，是固定搭配。‎ 第四处：考查代词。该处指作者的父亲经常冲着作者的哥哥大喊大叫，故应将his改为my。‎ 第五处：考查时态。句意：“我”的哥哥决定去驾校学习。该句陈述的是过去的情况，用一般过去时态即可。故had多余，应去掉。‎ 第六处：考查主谓一致。learning to drive是动名词做主语，动名词做主语视为单数，故根据主谓一致原则，应将weren’t 改为wasn’t。‎ 第七处：考查副词。unfortunately是副词，修饰整个句子。‎ 第八处：考查冠词。first是序数词，需和定冠词连用。‎ 第九处：考查形容词。exciting意为“令人兴奋的”，形容事物的特点性质。excited意为“兴奋的”，形容人的感受情绪。该句主语为he，表示作者哥哥的感受，故应将exciting改为excited。‎ 第十处：考查被动语态。it和finish之间是被动关系，故该句应用被动语态。finishing改为finished。‎ ‎【名师点拨】被动语态是语法填空或者短文改错中的常考点。被动语态的常见表达形式为be done。主语和谓语动词之间是被动关系时，那么该句就要用被动语态。同学们一定要注意动词的词性，千万不要仅仅根据汉语意思来判断主语和谓语动词的主被动关系。例如,像belong，appear，listen, go, come等词都是不及物动词，这些动词一般都不用于被动语态。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎33．A ‎34．F ‎35．B ‎36．D ‎37．G ‎【解析】每个人都有抱怨的时候，即使你是世界上最快乐的人，偶尔也会抱怨。本文主要介绍了几个方法停止抱怨和消除消极的想法。‎ ‎33．前面提到你有时甚至会抱怨没有意识到生病了，但这些抱怨都是没有帮助的，后面便提出了几个方法，所以这里是改变你的想法。故A选项正确。‎ ‎34．下文讲到了要把消极想法变成积极想法，怎么做才能停止抱怨，所以这一段主要讲的是怎么消除抱怨的念头。故F选项正确。‎ ‎35．由Be grateful for what we have in our life because we are lucky simply for being ourselves. 可知，对我们生活中拥有的充满感激，因为我们很幸运能做我们自己。根据上文讲的，我们抱怨时，可以找乐观的朋友开导我们。所以我们要多交一些积极的朋友。故B选项正确。‎ ‎36．正所谓是既来之，则安之。接受我们不能改变的东西，就如我们的工作。结合后文，D选项Are you constantly complaining about your present job?你是不是经常抱怨你现在的工作？更符合语境，故D选项正确。‎ ‎37．这一段主要说去寻找让你快乐的事情。G选项Set down things we are thankful for and we'll see that we don't have any reason to complain.写下让我们感激的事，然后我们会发现我们没有任何理由去抱怨，这个选项更符合语境故G选项正确。‎ ‎38．Dear John,‎ ‎ I am glad to hear that you are going to travel. Now I’d like to share my view on traveling with you.‎ ‎ In my opinion, traveling is a very good activity. When you get tired with your work or study and you have free time, you can go out to enjoy the beauty of nature, where you can breathe fresh air and make new friends. As a result, traveling will help you to relax yourself as well as build up your body.‎ In order to have a pleasant journey, you’d better have clear information about the weather, bring proper clothes, a camera, some medicine for common injuries or diseases and so on. Besides on your journey, you must pay attention to what you eat and your safety.‎ Do you agree with me? Wish you a good journey.‎ Yours, ‎ WangMing ‎【解析】试题分析：考查提纲类短文写作。本文的写作话题是对旅游的看法和旅行时的注意事项。要点在文字提示中已经给出，建议考生从对旅游的看法何旅行的注意事项两方面着手。本文使用一般现在时进行陈述，并根据文字提示组织好要点的顺序，选择合适的词汇和句型，准确表达.写作时注意准确运用连接词，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。‎ ‎【名师点睛】‎ 本文属于提纲类作文，是一份电子邮件。文章格式正确，内容齐全，结构布局合理，同时运用高级句子。 I am glad to hear that you are going to travel.句中使用宾语从句；In my opinion, traveling is a very good activity.动名词做主语；When you get tired with your work or study and you have free time, you can go out to enjoy the beauty of nature, where you can breathe fresh air and make new friends.
