‎2017年1月甘肃省河西五市部分普通高中第一次联合考试 英语试题 命题学校 嘉峪关市酒钢三中 命题人 胡笳 孙丰 答题时间：100分钟 满分：120分 第I卷（共70分）‎ 第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，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（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑 A After the huge success of the three – episode TV documentary, Masters in Forbidden City, premiered （首映）on China Central Television at the beginning of 2016, a group of professional restoration experts have attracted wide –spread attention from the general public. ‎ The documentary earned a high score of 9.4 points on Douban Movie, the Chinese version of IMDb, superior to the hot documentary, A Bite of China, to become the most influential documentary of the year. ‎ In response to viewers’ growing expectations, the producer released the movie version last Friday, aiming to further detail the “Spirit of the Craftsman”, one of the buzzwords in Chinese online culture. ‎ According to Xiao Han, director of Master in Forbidden City, the 86-minute film version, when compared to the documentary, is more like an independent story with breathtaking visual effects. “In modern society, many people are too impetuous and cannot calm down. We really hope movie-goers will set all the unimportant matters aside and fully involve themselves in the film. If they can gain just a little understanding and reflection on life from the movie, we will be relived,” Xiao said. ‎ ‎“Also, we canceled the voice-over and attached more importance to all the subtle sounds in the film. The sound of pushing a door, repairing cultural relics and the tick-tock clocks will give the viewers a sense of peace and easiness.” Xiao added. ‎ ‎1. From the passage we know that ____. ‎ ‎ A. The documentary Masters in Forbidden City gets less popularity than A Bite of China. ‎ ‎ B. Before the TV version was televised, the film version of Masters in Forbidden City had been released ‎ ‎ C. The documentaries Masters in Forbidden City and A Bite of China share the same director. ‎ ‎ D. The Spirit of Craftsman is becoming one of the hot issues among Chinese people nowadays. ‎ ‎2. The documentary Masters in the Forbidden City probably tells us about _______.‎ ‎ A. the legend which happened in Forbidden City ‎ B. the restoration of cultural relics in Forbidden City ‎ C. stories about masters living in Forbidden City ‎ D. stories about the construction of Forbidden City ‎3. The underlined word “impetuous” can be replaced by ________.‎ ‎ A. restless B. serious C. delighted D. peaceful ‎4. According to the statement of Xiao Han, it is not true about Masters in Forbidden City that ‎ ________.‎ ‎ A. people are expected to get inner peace from Masters in Forbidden City.‎ ‎ B. people in modern society find it hard to calm themselves down due to something unimportant. ‎ ‎ C. the movie producers are careless and thoughtless.‎ ‎ D. the sound processed in the movie leads to a better visual effect B ‎"Guys, get out of the mud! How many times do I have to tell you?"‎ I spilled out the words angrily. I felt myself repeating the same words my parents had said to me so many times in the past, and I felt powerless to change my kids’ actions. An alarming thought came to me, one that comes to most fathers at some point: "Am I becoming my father?"‎ We were on a short vacation, and my daughter and son were playing in the mud, splashing(溅) it with their boots, and enjoying the feeling. You know, one of those feelings that we adults are far too mature to enjoy anymore.‎ It was the third and last day of our trip, and I’d been with the kids on a solo mission to northern Minnesota. My wife had stayed home to enjoy some easy time to rest. Taking care of kids alone was absolutely no easy task. And while we’d experienced some great time on the trip, it didn’t feel too great at the moment. I was struggling with something that many fathers did with: a sense of impatience with my kids, and a feeling that I should control their behavior.‎ My son turned around to me and said, "Dad, relax! It’s OK!"I looked back at him, realizing he was right. Indeed, the mud could be washed off. No lives were in danger.‎ The only problem here was my desire to control them.‎ I wanted to thank him for his response. It’s useful to remember that our kids are not to be controlled. They should be guided and led, but not controlled. This desire to control can lead many fathers to an emotional disconnection with their kids. And while many fathers are clearly aware of this problem, they convince themselves that it can’t be helped.‎ The truth is that it can be helped, and fathers can change the relationship they have with their kids.‎ ‎5. What made the author think that he was becoming his father?‎ ‎ A. his children’s response to his order B. his way of speaking to his children ‎ C. the enjoyment during the trip D. the difficult task of taking care of his children ‎6. From the passage we can infer that ________.‎ ‎ A. the author’s children were too naughty to control ‎ B. the author didn’t have any fun during the trip with his children ‎ C. the control of children’s behavior can lead to the admiration from children D. sometimes it’s typical of fathers to yell at children when taking care of children alone ‎ ‎7. Which of the following word can be best to describe the author?‎ ‎ A. careless B. wise C. impatient D. emotional ‎ ‎8. Which can be the best title of this passage?‎ ‎ A. An unsuccessful control of children B. Ways to educate children ‎ ‎ C. Patience makes a good father D. A struggling mission in the trip ‎ C Market analysts in the United States have recently been quoted as saying that the biggest threat to the luxury (奢侈品) industry in the US is the tech industry. This is according to an article by fellow journalist Ashley Lutz. Her suggestion is sound. The main idea of her article is that products from Tiffany & Co. find their biggest competition not from other luxury brands but from companies like Apple. Lutz points out that luxury products are often only for “show,” while the attraction behind tech products is functionality.‎ You find few people in the United States today willing to purchase luxury goods at full price. It didn’t use to be that way. Luxury goods used to be actually exclusive. That meant you needed to travel to the right store to purchase them, and you didn’t even have the option of getting a deal.‎ Today, no one wants to pay full price for luxury goods. People have the unfortunate belief that fakes (赝品) somehow are equal to originals, and if you can’t get a deal on eBay, Amazon, or in an outlet store, purchasing a luxury product probably isn’t worth it. Luxury brands struggle to remain high-end (高档的) images despite the reality that the American consumer is motivated much more by discounts than they are by brand names or image.‎ Yet people stand in line to pay full price for a new product from Apple and crowds gather to hear about a new smart phone. While electronics are updating every day, people are purchasing technology at full prices much more than they are purchasing luxury goods. What high-tech makers are doing right what luxury makers are pitifully failing at? ‎ Carefully looking at the situation, it would appear as if the Internet didn’t hurt the luxury industry, expectation from the consumers did. What people want these days more than anything is stuff that does something. They want cars that drive, shoes that are comfortable, games that are fun to play, screens that are beautiful to look at, tools that are useful, and entertainment that is entertaining. Little of that fits into what the luxury industry has typically offered with its status, image, and fine materials. The sad reality is that luxury products aren’t that luxury any more.‎ ‎9. What does this passage mainly talk about?‎ A. Nobody likes luxury goods any more.‎ B. Luxury goods are of poor quality nowadays.‎ C. Iphones have taken the place of luxury products.‎ D. Tech products become the new “luxury goods”.‎ ‎10. The underlined word “exclusive” in paragraph 2 means _______.‎ A. hard to find B. low in price C. unique and with no bargain D. easy to sell ‎11. From paragraph 3 we can know that _______.‎ A. people have found that some luxury goods are fakes B. people can buy luxury goods at a low price on eBay C. luxury brands will give up high-end images D. consumers prefer brand names to discounts D If you think a high-factor sunscreen keeps you safe from harmful rays, you may be wrong. Research in this week’s Nature shows that while factor 50 reduces the number of melanomas (黑色素瘤) and delays their occurrence, it can’t prevent them. Melanomas are the most aggressive skin cancers. You have a high risk if you have red or blond hair, fair skin, blue or green eyes, or ‎ sunburn easily, or if a close relative has had one. Melanomas are more common if you have periodic intense exposure to the sun. Other skin cancers are increasingly likely with long-term exposure. ‎ There is continuing debate as to how effective sunscreen is in reducing melanomas -- the evidence is weaker than it is for preventing other types of skin cancer. A 2011 Australian study of 1,621 people found that people randomly selected to apply sunscreen daily had half the rate of melanomas of people who used cream as needed. A second study, comparing 1,167 people with melanomas to 1,101 who didn’t have the cancer, found that using sunscreen routinely alongside other protection such as hats, long sleeves or staying in the shade, did give some protection. This study said other forms of sun protection -- not sunscreen-- seemed most beneficial. The study relied on people remembering what they had done over each decade of their lives, so it’s not entirely reliable. But it seems reasonable to think sunscreen gives people a false sense of security in the sun. ‎ Many people also don’t use sunscreen properly applying insufficient amounts, failing to reapply after a couple of hours and staying in the sun too long. It is sunburn that is most worrying recent research shows that episodes of sunburn in the teenage years increase the risk of all skin cancers. ‎ The good news is that a combination of sunscreen and covering up can reduce melanoma rates, as shown by Australian figures from their slip-slop-slap campaign. So if there is a heat wave this summer, it would be the best for us too, to slip on a shirt, slop on (抹上) sunscreen and slap on a hat. ‎ ‎12. What is people’s common expectation of a high-factor sunscreen?‎ ‎ A. It will delay the occurrence of skin cancer.‎ ‎ B. It will keep their skin smooth and fair.‎ ‎ C. It will protect them from sunburn. ‎ ‎ D. It will work for people of any skin color.‎ ‎13. What does the research in Nature say about a high-factor sunscreen?‎ ‎ A. It is ineffective for people with fair skin.‎ ‎ B. It is ineffective in case of intense sunlight.‎ ‎ C. It is ineffective with long-term exposure. ‎ ‎ D. It is ineffective in preventing melanomas. ‎ ‎14. What does the author say about the second Australian study?‎ A. It misleads people to rely on sunscreen for protection.‎ B. It helps people to select the most effective sunscreen. ‎ C. It is not based on direct observation of the subjects. ‎ D. It confirms the results of the first Australian study. ‎ ‎15. What does the author suggest to reduce melanoma rates?‎ A. Using both covering up and sunscreen. ‎ B. Staying in the shade whenever possible. ‎ C. Using covering up instead of sunscreen. ‎ D. Applying the right amount of sunscreen. ‎ 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。‎ How do actors and actresses memorize hundreds of lines? Memorizing lines takes practice and constant repetition. However, there are a few ways to make the memorization process run smoothly and quickly．‎ ‎　　   16  ‎ ‎　　 For most performers, there is no quicker way of memorizing lines．To learn lines, an actor must recite the play loud over and over again．Most rehearsals (彩排) encourage this by running through the lines or having a “read through”. By the time opening night arrives, most actors have spoken their lines hundreds of times.‎ ‎　　Listen to your cast members.‎ ‎　　Sometimes inexperienced actors spend rehearsals looking at fellow performers, waiting patiently to say their next line. 17    This will help the actor learn his lines better because the context of the dialogue is absorbed.‎ ‎　　___18 ‎ ‎　　Because there is often not enough rehearsal time, many performers find ways to listen to the play’s dialogue during everyday activities. They use a tape recorder or an MP3 player to listen to the lines from each relevant scene (剧情). Some actors prefer to record the lines of all the characters, including their own.  19    Others like recording the lines of fellow cast members(参演人员), and they leave a blank space so that they can insert their dialogue while listening to the recording. ‎ ‎　　Think positively and don’t panic.‎ ‎　　Most actors will experience stage fright before the opening night. Actors forget lines now and then. When it happens, however, most of the time the audience never notice. If you forget a line in the middle of your performance, don’t freeze. Stay in character. Keep the scene going to the best of your ability. If unfortunately you forget a line once, you will probably never forget that line ever again.  20__ ‎ A. Instead, they should be listening carefully, responding in character at all times. ‎ B. Then, they not only listen carefully, but they also speak all of the lines. ‎ C. Sometimes embarrassment is the toughest method of memorization. ‎ D. Read lines loud and remember them in a short time.‎ E. Read lines loud and repeat them.‎ F. Practice makes perfect.‎ G. Record your lines.‎ 第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面的短文，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。‎ Many visitors find the pace at which American people move very troubling.
