高一英语试卷

第一节(共11小题，每小题2.5分，满分27.5分）
A
You’re fed up with the never-ending festivals of cinema, theater, music … in place of events you’ll really remember? Unusual, dangerous, or horrible, there’s something for everyone!
The Redhead Festival—Melbourne, Australia
Allowing those who are different to band together, Melbourne annually gathers 2% of the world’s redheads! In reality, redheads are superheroes! I mean, like Spiderman, they have a gene that changed! Calling all redheads: set off and find your fellow carrots in Melbourne on April 29.
Mule Day—Columbia, United States
There’s no reason why horses should be the only one to be appreciated. The lower class of Equidae will have its moment! Ride in on your best mule for races, sales, local products, parades and the election of the Queen of Mules (a real woman, but what bad taste!) await you from March 27 to April 2.
The Mud Festival—Boryeong, South Korea
The last one to get dirty loses! On Daecheon Beach in South Korea, once a year the local people rush into big inflatable (可充气的) rooms filled with mud. There’s magic in this mud because it’s full of nutrients and minerals. It makes the skin as soft as a baby’s bottom! Mud races, wrestling competitions, concerts, mud slides, mud baths, and massages (按摩) await the biggest dirtbags from July 21 to 30.
The Baby-Jumping Festival—Murcia, Spain
On the second Sunday of June every year, Murcia celebrates an interesting tradition: jumping over babies. The basic idea is that a man is dressed up in a red and yellow costume and jumps like a flying eagle over babies lying on a bed in the street. The goal is to purify (净化) the newborns and protect them from the evil.
1．Which festival can you join in if you are free in March?
A．The Redhead Festival. B．Mule Day. C．The Mud Festival. D．The Baby-Jumping Festival.
2．What can you do during the Mud Festival?
A．Join in a mule race. B．Enjoy a parade. C．Attend concerts. D．Dress up babies.
3．What’s the purpose of jumping over babies?
A．To find fellow carrots. B．To have fun with babies.
C．To make baby skin soft. D．To guard babies against evil.
B
Pop stars have traditionally not come from the upper classes of society. Eminem grew up on a trailer (活动住屋) park. 50 Cent is from the dangerous shelters of New York. The Beatles grew up in the poor city of Liverpool.
However, some musicians have come from the army. Elvis Presley, the King of Rock and Roll, served with the American Army in Germany while Jimi Hendrix was in the parachute regiment (伞兵团). Following in that tradition comes a British hit, James Blunt. His single, You’re Beautiful, was a huge success, and his concerts have sold out all over the country.
James Blunt, born on February 22, 1977, comes from a family with a long tradition of military service. His early life was not filled with music. His army officer father thought all music, even classical, was unnecessary noise. His life seemed certain to follow that of his father’s before him—private schools, a good university and a career as an officer in the British Army. The thought of pursuing a career in music had never occurred to him until he witnessed an older boy playing an electric guitar at age 14. When he was sent to Kosovo in 1999, he didn’t just take his gun he also took his guitar, attached to the side of his tank. As he drove through villages damaged by the war, he used to sing the John Lennon song Give Peace a Chance. “Well,” he later said, “we were peacekeepers.”
In 2003 he left the army and went to Los Angeles to make a record. In 2004, his first album Back to Bedlam was released, and the singles High, Wise Men and You’re Beautiful have been great successes. For the singing soldier, putting down a gun for a guitar has been a good choice.
4．What do Elvis Presley and James Blunt have in common?
A．They were from upper social classes. B．They were kings of Rockand Roll.
C．They rose to fame in Britain. D．They used to serve in the army.
5．What made James Blunt take up music?
A．His father’s support. B．The Beatles’ influence.
C．A guitar performance. D．Family tradition of music.
6．What is James Blunt’ s first album?
A．Back to Bedlam. B．Give Peace a Chance.
C．High, Wise Men. D．You’re Beautiful.
7．What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．Blunt’s journey to the US. B．Blunt’s success as a singer.
C．Blunt’s practice of singing. D．Blunt’s best-selling records.
C
The handshake has existed in some form or another for thousands of years, but there are different ideas about its source. One popular theory is that the gesture began as a way of expressing peaceful purposes. By holding out their empty right hands, strangers could show that they were not holding knives and bore no ill-will toward one another. Yet another explanation iso that the handshake was a symbol of good faith when making a promise. When they held others’ hands, people showed that their word was a close relationship.
“An agreement could be expressed quickly and clearly in words,” the historian Walter Burkert once explained, “but was only made effective by a ritual gesture: open, empty hands reached out toward one another, catching each other in a handshake.”
One of the earliest descriptions of a handshake is found in the ninth century B．C． The Assyrian King Shalmaneser III pressed the flesh with a Babylonian ruler to form a union. Poet Homer described handshakes several times in his “Iliad” and “Odyssey,” most often in relation to expressions of trust. The gesture was also common in the fourth and fifth century B．C． Greek, funeral. Gravestones would often show the dead person shaking hands with a member of their family, meaning either a final goodbye or the lasting connection between the living and the dead. In ancient Rome, meanwhile, the handshake was often used as a symbol of friendship. Pairs of shaking hands even appeared on Roman coins.
8．What did people want to show with their empty right hands?
A．They were very poor. B．They were healthy.
C．They meant no threat. D．They had special customs.
9．What does Walter Burkert mean?
A．An agreement must be accepted by empty hands.
B．An agreement came into effect after a handshake.
C．Spoken words were enough to confirm an agreement.
D．Shaking hands was polite while making an agreement.
10．What does the underlined part “pressed the flesh” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Started an attack. B．Shook hands.
C．Had a discussion. D．Compared strength.
11．What is the suitable title for the text?
A．Ways of Greetings B．Importance of Gestures
C．Benefits of Handshake D．History of Handshake

【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了近几年在美国很流行的购物节 ——网购星期一。
32．考查定语从句。句意：在这一天，零售商通常会给网购者很大的折扣。此处为定语从句，关系词指代先行词a day并在从句中作介词on的宾语，故填which。
33．考查非谓语动词。句意：因此，数以千万计的购物者在这一天购物，以获得节日购物季的最佳礼物。根据句意可知此处表示目的，用不定式作目的状语，故填to get。
34．考查时态语态。句意：虽然一开始它被认为是一个绝对的美国节日，但后来它已经传遍了全世界。主语it与consider之间是被动关系，根据时间状语“at first”可知此处表示过去的事情，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，而且谓语动词用单数，故填was considered。
35．考查固定短语。句意：目前的一种看法是，随着越来越多的消费者决定在网上购物，网购星期一正导致黑色星期五的衰落。lead to是固定短语，表示“导致”，故填to。
36．考查名词的数。句意同上，consumer是可数名词，more and more修饰可数名词复数，故填consumers。
37．考查名词。句意：这要么是因为方便，要么是因为网上购买的商品价格较低。due to 后接名词作宾语，故填convenience。
38．考查冠词。句意：网购星期一不是法定假日。holiday是可数名词，此处用不定冠词表泛指，public 的发音以辅音音素开头，故填a。
39．考查副词。句意：因此，在美国，无论是在州还是联邦层面，都没有注意到这一点，这意味着所有在这一天正常营业的企业都照常营业。修饰形容词open用副词，故填normally。
40．考查非谓语动词。句意：不幸的是，一些网购者在周一上班时间花了很多时间寻找便宜货。
spend time (in) doing表示“花费时间做某事”，故填looking。
41．考查形容词。句意：毕竟，在工作时间上网购物是不合适的。此处缺少形容词作表语，故填suitable。
42．D
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：我对这首歌不熟悉，因为这我第一次听到有人唱。分析可知，空处应用非谓语动词作宾补，逻辑主语it（指代上文的the song）和sing之间为被动关系，应用过去分词。故选D。
43．A
【详解】考查动词语态。句意：自从我上大学以来，我买了许多科学方面的书。根据时间状语since I went to college可知，此处应用现在完成时，动词buy与主语Many books之间为动宾关系，应用被动语态，助动词为have。故选A项。
44．C
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：这四个国家使用相同的国旗，即所谓的英国国旗，并且使用相同的货币。分析可知，句中已有谓语动词use，空处和谓语use没有连词，所以空白处应用非谓语。be known as“作为……而闻名”，句子主语The four countries与动词know为动宾关系，所以此处用过去分词known，故选C。
45．C
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：肢体语言是非常有用的，因为它可以帮助别人更好地理解你自己。make oneself done使自己被……，宾语与补足语之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。故选C。
46．C
【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：万圣节，美国的孩子们喜欢装扮成鬼来吓唬人。A. take up占据，从事；B. make up弥补，构成；C. dress up打扮；D. turn up出现。由语境可知，此处指万圣节美国孩子会扮成鬼吓人，dress up as意为“打扮成”符合语境。故选C项。
47．B
48．C
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：从山顶上看，这个城市显得更小了。逻辑主语the city与see之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词作状语。故选C。
49．C
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：约翰聚精会神地画画，没有注意到傍晚即将来临。分析句子可知，设空处在句中作非谓语，其逻辑主语为John，二者之间为被动关系，应用过去分词absorbed，此处整个分词短语作状语。being absorbed表示被动和进行，但根据句意可知，此处不强调两个动作同时发生。故选C项。
50．A
51．C
52．ordinary
【详解】考查形容词。句意：虚拟合唱团帮助将普通人联系在一起。根据汉语意思提示可知，此处为形容词ordinary“普通的”作定语修饰people，满足句意要求，ordinary people“普通人”。故填ordinary。
