Besides, I experienced something that left a deep impression on me.Our children were excited about the attraction where children could drive the cars. They were so delighted that I decided to stand beside the track to get pictures of everyone as they drove past on the track. As I waited for them to drive by, I noticed a car with a father and his son who was about 7 years old. They rolled down the hill at the beginning, but suddenly the car stopped. The young driver looked nervous, “I can’t do it.” His father quietly said, “Yes, you can.”“No, I can’t!”“Yes, you can, son.”The little guy was almost in tears, “I can’t With the deep patience, the father said, “Son, you can do this. I’m going to help you.” A moment later, with the father helping his son, they two went smoothly（顺利地）on their way down the track. The scene brought tears to my eve and it reminded me of my dear father. Just like that little boy’s father, my father used to say the same words to me. Every time things got hard or when I experienced setbacks along the way, he would say, “Michelle, you can do this. I’m going to help you.” Time and time again, the words greatly encouraged me on the journey. When I’m aware that can’t do things under my own power, the words — “Yes, you can.” — come beside me and give me wisdom and strength. As I benefited a lot from them, I often tell my children never to say “No, I can’t.” easily when they meet something difficult.4. Why did the author stand beside the track?A.

It is an ancient tradition which brings men and women together through food, gifts and music.In the days before the festival, young women gather leaves and wild flowers, which they use to dye（给……染色）sticky rice with bright colours. This brightly coloured rice, known as Sister Rice, gives the festival its name. During the festival, the young women dress in beautiful traditional clothes with large amounts of silver jewelry（首饰）.The festival includes parades（游行）, horse races and musical performances. But the real focus is the interaction（交流）between the young women and the young men who visit from surrounding villages and sing songs. In one traditional type of song, a man and woman take turns singing to each other, and the first one to make a mistake loses the game. The loser must give the winner a gift, but the winner is expected to give a gilt in return too.After meeting the men, the women send them home with a bamboo basket containing dyed rice and hidden objects with special meanings. For example, a pair of chopsticks means she wants to marry the man while garlic shows that she is not interested. One of several stories about the festival’s beginning is of a girl and a boy who fell in love. The girl’s parents wanted her to marry her uncle’s son as was traditional at the time. She refused, and the boy likewise refused to marry anyone else. For a time, they could only meet in a field and pass hidden messages to each other through rice in a bamboo basket. Finally, the pair overcame their parents’ opposition and were allowed to marry. The Miao Sisters Festival is perhaps the oldest festival in Asia that encourages love.8.

Often a man needs to sing songs to a young woman.11. What does the story in Paragraph 5 tell us?A. The boy’s parents didn’t like the girl. B. They were not married in the end. C. The boy refused to marry the girl at first. D. The rice in the bamboo basket carried their love. DHave you ever found yourself in this situation: You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child—a bit of nostalgia（怀旧）or “blast from the past”, as we say. But it is not a distant childhood memory. The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago. Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages. Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of language tests to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out on top. The people who learnt these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall performance. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply learnt the words by speaking them.Dr Katie Overy said singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained in a catchy 3, or memorable 4, tune 5. Dr Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to learn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburgh’s website Dr Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning.”12. What’s the author’s purpose by mentioning the “song” in the first paragraph?A. To recall the past. B. To attract the readers. C. To introduce the topic.D. To compare the childhood with the present.13. Which language doesn’t share the same root with Germanic or romance languages?A. Hungarian. B. Spanish. C. Italian. D. English14. What can we conclude from the last two paragraphs?A. Singing is the best way to learn a language. B. The brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words.C. A listen-and-repeat method is very effective for any language learner. D. Dr Katie Overy and Dr Luke disagree with each other.15. In which situation can the finding of the research be applied?A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak. B. A child is going to have his first music lesson. C. A student is going to learn a new English song. D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）陕西宝鸡金台区2020高一期中]阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Five Tips for Safe RunningWe all know that exercise is good for our health But some kinds of exercise may be better than others Running, for example, may help to protect against heart disease and other health problems.

I was just a kid then, and my sister told me there was no Santa Claus. I fled to my grandma because she would be straight with me. I knew Grandma always told me the truth. Grandma was home, and I told her everything. She was ready for me. “No Santa Claus!” she shouted. “Ridiculous! Don’t believe it.” That rumour has been going around for years, and it makes me mad, plain mad. “Now, put on your coat, and let’s go.” “Go where, Grandma?” I asked. “Where” turned out to be Kerby’s General Store, the store in town that had a little bit of just about everything. As we walked through its doors Grandma handed me ten dollars. “Take this money,” she said, “and buy something for someone who needs it. I’ll wait for you in the car.” Then she turned and walked out of Kerby’s. I was only eight years old. I’d often gone shopping with my mother, but never had I shopped for anything all by myself. The store seemed big and crowded, full of people competing to finish their Christmas shopping. For a few moments I just stood there, confused holding that ten-dollar bill, wondering what to buy and who to buy it for. I suddenly thought of Bobby Decker, who was a kid with bad breath and messy hair. He sat right behind me in Mrs Pollock’s Grade Two class. Bobby Decker didn’t have a coat. I knew that because he never went out for recess (放假) during the winter. His mother always wrote a note, telling the teacher that he had a cough, but we kids knew that Bobby Decker didn’t have a cough and he didn’t have a coat. I would buy Bobby Decker a coat! I settled on a red one, which looked really warm, and he would like that.“Is this a Christmas present for someone?” the lady behind the counter asked kindly, as I laid my dollars down. “Yes.”The nice lady smiled at me, put the coat in a bag and wished me a Merry Christmas.Paragraph 1:That evening, Grandma helped me wrap the coat in Christmas paper._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:Grandma and I waited breathlessly for Bobby Decker’s front door to open and finally it_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________答案：第一部分 阅读第一节A【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了CCA一些特殊的项目，这些项目分别是 Summer Programme、Summer Courses、Summer Start以及Company-Customised Programmes。1.
