辽宁省葫芦岛市兴城市第三高级中学2019-2020学年高一下期末考试 英语试题 第I卷 (选择题，共70分)‎ I. 阅读理解：（共 20小题，每小题2分，满分 40分）‎ 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。‎ A My English friends Vic and Esther invited me out to dinner on their last evening in Toronto. They were really pleased with it — but then Vic only left a five-dollar tip for the waiter! The bill was almost $150 and in Canada, it’s normal to leave a 15% tip. The waiter looked shocked — he must have thought we were really unhappy! I didn’t want to embarrass (使尴尬) Vic by putting more money on the table, so I quietly gave the waiter another $10 as we were leaving.‎ ‎— Neil, Canada I particularly remember a party I went to soon after I came to Australia. The people were friendly and the food was wonderful but all the time I kept thinking, ‘Where’s the music? When does the dancing start?’ Where I come from, a party isn’t a party without music and dancing! But nothing happened and I left early, which probably wasn’t very polite, but I just felt so out of place.‎ ‎— Daniela, Colombia When I went to meet my Italian friend at the airport, she ran over and hugged me and kissed me on both cheeks. I felt totally uncomfortable! Kissing and hugging in public is not how people usually behave here! People were staring at us and some children were even laughing. There was nothing wrong with what she did but I couldn’t deal with it at the time.‎ ‎— Haneul, Korea Soon after I arrived in China I was invited to be a judge at a local school’s English speech contest. After the contest the head teacher invited me to dinner, but before I could accept my guide politely refused for me. Afterwards he told me that it was common practice to make invitations like this just to be polite, which is quite different from my home country where invitations are sincere and you are expected to accept them.‎ ‎— Dr. Finckel, Britain ‎1.

It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.‎ The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.‎ Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.‎ The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.‎ ‎5. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?‎ A. It made room for new equipment.‎ B.

It was an all-time classic. B. It was about the history of the town.‎ C. The audience requested it. D. The theater owner found it suitable.‎ ‎7. What will probably happen to the building?‎ A. It will be repaired. B. It will be turned into a museum.‎ C. It will be knocked down. D. It will be sold to the city government.‎ C Teachers are having lessons in how to read children’s body language and change their own to deal with bad behavior in the classroom.‎ Thousands have been trained to watch pupils’ gestures, mannerisms（言谈举止），facial expressions and speech, in order to know what they are thinking and how they feel. Teachers are encouraged to copy a child’s gestures to give them a message that the teacher understands them. If a child is talking with his left hand touching his chin（下巴），teachers should stand and hold their left hand to their chin, for example. Teachers should also cross their legs if a student does while he’s speaking.‎ The training is part of a set of exercises called Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), which is designed to improve communication and behavior. More than 1,200 teachers in England have received training in NLP. Hundreds of schools also pay thousands of pounds for the training. NLP was developed in the 1970s at the University of California in the US. Its methods have been employed in a variety of fields, including sales, marketing, and management. In the  UK, at least 50 companies now offer courses in NLP, many aimed at teachers.‎ Dave Vizard, author of Meeting the Needs of Disaffected Students, said the technique was a new way to deal with poor behavior in the classroom. “Matching body language means looking at the world through the young persons’ eyes”, he said.‎ However, some people say that NLP is just another educational fashion that takes teachers’ attention away from good teaching. Frank Furedi, a sociology professor at Kent University, says, “Every few years there’s a big idea that becomes the theme in education. We’ve had raising self-respect, multiple intelligence, well-being and happiness, and the latest is NLP. They are tricks and are then replaced with the next big thing.”‎ ‎8.Which may be a main purpose of the lessons?‎ A. Making studies more enjoyable.‎ B. Teaching students about body language.‎ C. Helping pupils know about themselves.‎ D. Improving classroom management.‎ ‎9.What should teachers do if a schoolboy moves his head to the side?‎ A. Tell him to stand up straight.              B. Make the same movement.‎ C. Touch their chin.              D. Cross their legs.‎ ‎10.What was Vizard’s attitude to NLP?‎ A. Afraid.              B. Doubtful. C. Supportive.              D. Uncaring.‎ ‎11.What does Furedi say about NLP?‎ A. It won’t stay popular for long.              B. It is a great educational idea.‎ C. It helps teachers in many ways.              D. It goes against a lot of old ideas.‎ D About three decades ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the two-wheeled approach of transport’s popularity began to fade, with many bikes soon replaced by their fuel-powered competitors.‎ But recent months have seen a re-popularity of the humble（简陋的） bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-up company like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level. According to data shown by Research ‎ Consulting Group, the first week of this year saw 5.85 million active users of Mobike while Ofo had 1.4 million active users.‎ People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They’re popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem, which refers to the final leg of a person’s journey.‎ However, the schemes have also led to problems such as illegal parking, damage on purpose and theft. “Bike sharing is a greener method of transportation and provides a users-friendly experience” said Liu Xiaoming, vice minister of transport. “But it’ s a combination of online and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online services, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems.” To deal with these problems, the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return the bikes to stations by rewarding free time for their next rides.‎ ‎12.  Why did the two-wheeled approach of transport become less popular?‎ A. Because China is no longer a bicycle kingdom.‎ B. Because cycling is not convenient.‎ C. Because fuel-powered competitors were replaced by riding.‎ D. Because mostly driving took the place of cycling.‎ ‎13. who has brought the re-popularity of bike to a new level?‎ A. The local government. B. The businessmen C. The Pioneered start-ups D. The students and workers.‎ ‎14.What reason causes many problems in bike sharing?‎ A. Some people make damages to the bikes on purpose B. Operators lack offline business experience C. The bike sharing business is too difficult to run D. There are no relative laws on this business ‎15. What is the best title of this passage?‎ A. humble bikes back into style               B. the development of humble bikes C. the advantages of humble bikes              D. ride for free with humble bikes 七选五: 根据短文内容，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。‎ Competition is all around us and it makes the strong stronger and the weak weaker It can also teach us how to survive in a fast-paced and stressful world. ____16____. How many of us have seen young boys weeping because their teams didn’t win inter-school tournament? How many of us have seen young teenagers cheat just to win? ______17______ So it’s important to develop healthy competition among children.‎ When it comes to encouraging healthy competition among children the first thing to do is set goals for them to stick to. ___18___‎ Since children may be easily affected by wrong ideas from popular media and the Internet, it’s up to you to develop the right kind of spirit in them. Team spirit will help them grow into human beings who aren’t easily annoyed by small losses or too excited by victories. ____19____ So give them examples where family members refused to cheat to win.‎ ‎___20___. When they take an exam, don’t ask about how much they expect to score; instead, ask what they wrote about. If your son played a cricket match at school, don’t ask him whether his team won or lost; ask him how many runs he scored and encourage him to score higher next time instead. When you let your children know that you’re more interested in how they performed rather than whether they lost or won, they will surely try to better themselves.‎ A. However, you mustn’t push them too hard and burden them with too high a goal B. We should also encourage healthy competition among children C. These are the effects of unhealthy competition D. In addition, they may also not want to adopt just any method to win, like cheating or lying E. Care more about children’s performance rather than the results in a sports match F. However, children can be hit by competition G. Sending your children the right signals is also important II. 完形填空: （共 20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ On a trip to California, my family stopped for lunch.
