- 1 - 2019 届高三英语上学期期中试题 本试卷分第 I 卷和第 II 卷两部分 第Ⅰ卷 第一部分 听力 ( 略 ) 第二部分 阅读理解 ( 共 2 节， 满分 40 分) 第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 30 分） 阅读下列短文 , 从每题所给的四个选项中 (A、B、C和 D)中 , 选出最佳选项。 A Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class. Opposite to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals. 21. During the test, those who were tested were given . A. no breakfast at all B. different breakfasts or none C. little food for breakfast D. very rich breakfast 22. The results of the test show that . A. breakfast has great effect on work and studies B. breakfast has little to do with a person ’s work C. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfast D. those working with brains should have much for breakfast 23. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Poor breakfasts affect those who work with brains. B. Morning diet may cause one to get fatter. - 2 - C. Eating less in lunch and supper may help to lose weight. D. Reducing breakfast is of great value in weight losing. B I ’ve given a lot of speeches about education. And I ’ve talked about responsibility a lot. I ’ve talked about teachers ’ responsibility for inspiring students and pushing you to learn. I ’ve talked about your parents ’ responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and you get your homework done. I ’ve talked a lot about your government ’ s responsibility for setting high standards, and supporting teachers and principals, and turning around schools that aren ’t working, where students aren ’t getting the opportunities. But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools -- and none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed. That ’s what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education. I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself. Maybe you could be a great writer -- maybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspaper -- but you might not know it until you write that English paper -- that English class paper that ’ s assigned (given) to you. Maybe you could be an innovator (reformer) or an inventor -- maybe even good enough to come up with the next iPhone or the new medicine or vaccine -- but you might not know it until you do your project for your science class. Maybe you could be a mayor or a senator or a Supreme Court judge -- but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team. And no matter what you want to do with your life, I guarantee (am sure) that you ’ ll need an education to do it. You cannot drop out of school and just drop into a good job. You ’ve got to train for it and work for it and learn for it. This isn ’t just important for your own life and your own future. What you make of your education will decide nothing less than the future of this country. The future of America depends on you. What you’re learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future. 24. What ’s the main idea of the passage? A. The teachers should take the responsibility to teach their students carefully. - 3 - B. The parents should all the time take the responsibility to supervise the children. C. The government should take the responsibility to support the teachers and schools. D. The students themselves should take the responsibility to study for their future. 25. What does the underlined word dedicated mean? A. frightened B. excited C. devoted D. determined 26. Who will be the listeners of this speech? A. Students B. Teachers C. Parents D. Principals 27. What is the best title of this passage? A. Who is responsible for the future? B. Education---your choice C. Your education, your future D. Education changes your life C You put a great deal of effort into reaching the college of your choice. It ’ s time to get started. But what ’s next? Beginning college can be an exciting but awkward time. Follow these tips to adjust to your new life rapidly and make the most of your college experience. ● To save time and money, use the college ’s bus system. Taking the bus to school is quick, easy and free in most college towns. You won ’t have to locate or afford a place to park either. It ’s also a good way to be environmentally aware. ● Save pennies on books by waiting until class starts. You might not even need all of the recommended books. New textbooks cost an arm and a leg. Try buying used textbooks ---it ’s a surefire way to save money and serves the purpose as well. ● Do never look at college life as an endless series of parties and social activities. But there is a whole lot more to college if you ’ re serious about graduating. Having a good college experience is all about balancing work and fun. ● Be aware that your living environment can largely affect your academic success. If the dorm doesn ’ t suit you, consider living at home with your family or renting your own apartment. The best location for your studies isn ’t always your dorm. Find a quiet area, like the library, to do your work. Alternatively, buy some headphones that block out noise. ● Be mindful of your diet. Make healthy food choices and watch what you eat. Avoid foods that are processed or high in sugar. The “freshman 15” is real. Many college students gain at least 15 pounds during their freshmen year. - 4 - ● While electives ( 选修课 ) can be helpful when figuring out your major, you shouldn ’ t entirely rely on them. Clubs and other organizations exist around. Get involved. Make sure, though, that you still have time to study. Having too much on your plate can hurt your grades. 28. Which of the following ideas can be financially wise? A. Driving your own car. B. Attending activities. C. Renting an apartment. D. Buying used books. 29. In the text, freshmen are repeatedly warned against . A. traffic accidents B. physical problems C. academic failures D. social activities 30. The underlined phrase “ having too much on your plate ” probably refers to . A. using too much money for meals B. taking part in too many after-class activities C. eating too much unhealthy food D. taking an elective that has too many students 31 What can we infer from the passage? A. Some freshmen don ’t have healthy lifestyle. B. All freshmen adapt to their new life easily. C. All freshmen should live in the dorm. D. Some freshmen enjoy their new life. D In our deep mind, we all talk to ourselves —an inner monologue that might seem rather pointless. But as a study shows, the act of giving ourselves mental messages can help us learn and perform at our best. Researchers have identified the most effective forms of self-talk collected here —so that the next time you talk to yourself; you know exactly what you should say. Self-talk isn ’ t just motivational messages like “ You can do it! ” or “Almost there, ” although this inside cheering section can give us confidence. A review of more than two dozen studies, published last year in the journal Perspectives On Psychological Science, found that there is another kind of mental message that is even more useful, called “instructional self-talk. ” This is the kind of running description we engage in when we ’re carrying out a difficult task, especially one that ’s unfamiliar to us. Think about when you were first learning to drive. Your - 5 - self-talk might have gone something like this: “Foot on the gas pedal, hands on the wheel, slow down for the bend here, now put your blinker on ⋯” Over time, of course, giving yourself instructions becomes unnecessary —but while you’ re learning, it does three important things. First, it promotes our attention, focusing us on the important part of the task and keeping out distractions. Second, it helps us manage our effort and make decisions about what to do, how to do it, and when. And third, self-talk allows us to control our cognitive and emotional reactions, making us stay on tasks. In a recent study of students learning to throw balls in a gym class, Athanasios Kolovelonis Greece found that self-talk is most effective when involved in a cycle of thought and action. First comes forethought, when you set a goal for yourself and make a plan for how to get there. That ’s followed by performance, when you carry out the plan to the best of your ability. Last comes self-reflection, when you carefully evaluate what you ’ve done and adjust your plan for the next time. Self-talk can play a key part in this cycle. During the forethought stage, consider carefully what you ’ll say to yourself. You can even write them down. Repeat these self-instructions during the performance stage. With practice, you may find that your self-instructions become shorter; research has found that these words can become powerful signals. After the action is over, consider how you might change your self-talk to improve your performance next time---so that at the moment it matters, the right words are ringing in your ears. 32. The main idea of the third paragraph is _____ while you are learning. A. that self-talk has three stages. B. that self-talk promotes your attention. C. in what ways self-talk will benefit you. D. that it is not necessary to give yourself instructions. 33. According to the passage, what are you supposed to say to yourself first if you are learning to ride a horse for the first time? A. How can I speed up? B. Hold the rope and get on the horse! C. No problem! I can make it! D. What a big horse! I am scared! - 6 - 34. According to the author, being able to use self-talk is _____. A. a useful method to help us improve our performance. B. a key part of the forethought stage. C. a skill to deal with difficult problems. D. a final result of carrying out a difficult task. 35. The author explains the self-talk by _____. A. setting down general theories only. B. giving instructions of how to self-talk C. considering important practice. D. presenting research findings and giving examples 第二节 ( 共 5 小题；每小题 2 分, 满分 10 分) 根据短文内容 , 从短文后的七个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。 Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends. Good friendship has many benefits. It offers companionship, improves self-worth and promotes good health. There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town, or changed our jobs or schools. Such changes often leaves us without a friend. 36 But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends. 1. Stay in touch with others. The first step to making friends is associating with other people. You can go to public places to meet new people. Besides, you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places. 2. Start a conversation Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends. 37 You can always start the conversation.

Let it grow. - 7 - It is a good thing to stay in touch.
