But designer Mikhail Belyaev doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella. The designer says he comes up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be all right to have a canopy (伞蓬) built into a street lamp.” he said. The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella in need. Sensors then ensure that the umbrella offers the pedestrians (行人) shelter whenever it starts raining. In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360° motion sensor on the street lamp which detects whether anyone’s using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed. According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough protection for several people. Being installed (安装) at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians. While there are no plans to take Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be fixed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies. 4. For what purpose did Belyaev create the Lampbrella? A. To predict a heavy rain. B. To check the weather forecast. C. To protect people from the rain. D. To remind people to take an umbrella. 5. What do we know from Belyaev’s words in Paragraph 2? A. His creation was inspired by an experience. B. It rains a lot in the city of Saint Petersburg. C. Street lamps are protected by canopies. D. He enjoyed taking walks in the rain. 6. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the Lampbrella? A. Its moving speed. B. Its appearance. C. Its installation. D. Its safety. 7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The designer will open a company to promote his product. B. The Lampbrella could be put into immediate production. C. The designer is confident that his creation is practical. D. The Lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Mikhail Belyaev发明的一种灯柱，可以让人们即使在下雨天没带雨衣或者雨伞，也不必害怕被淋湿。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段后两句“But designer Mikhail Belyaev doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.(但是设计师Mikhail Belyaev并不认为出门前忘记查看天气预报会导致被淋湿。这就是为什么他创造了Lampbrella，一个带有雨水感应伞的灯柱)”可知，Belyaev发明Lampbrella的目的是保护人们下雨时不被淋湿。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“The designer says he comes up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia.(这位设计师说，他是在俄罗斯街头看到人们被淋湿后想到这个主意的)”可知，他的发明灵感来自他在俄罗斯街头看到人们淋雨的经历。故选A。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段内容“According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lightning strike. (根据设计师的说法，灯柱会以相对较低的速度移动，以免对行人造成伤害。此外，它将被接地以防止可能的雷击)”可知，灯柱移动速度慢，接地避免雷击，都是在说明灯柱的安全性，因此本段主要介绍了Lampbrella的安全性。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While there are no plans to take Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be fixed on my street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies.(虽然目前还没有将Lampbrella投入生产的计划，但Belyaev说，他最近将自己的发明介绍给了莫斯科的一个部门，并坚称这一发明可以在任何有很多人行走但没有顶棚的街道上进行安装)”可知，Belyaev坚持认为，自己的发明可以被安装，为行人提供便利。由此可知，他认为这一发明是实用的。故选C。 C The history of Azerbaijani cinema dates back to the end of the 19th century, during which, many excellent movies have been filmed, which are still watched and admired by everyone. These movies were filmed in many beautiful places: from the comfortable and winding streets of the Icharishahar(Old City)—UNESCO World Heritage Site in Baku—to the beautiful fruit gardens and forests of beautiful areas of Azerbaijan. Here, on these streets, one of the most famous Azerbaijani films, Arshin Mal Alan, directed by Rza Tahmasib, was filmed. Filmed in 1945 and characterized by its amazing plot, beautiful music, great singing and acting, Arshin Mal Alan quickly became a box office sensation (轰动). It remains an important cultural touchstone across Eurasia and has been translated into 86languages and shown in 136 countries. The film is about pure love, women’s rights, and a young couple’s dreams for a modern way of life. The plot tells us about a rich young man named Asker. One day, he decides to get married. However, according to the Eastern rule, a bride (新娘) needs to cover her face before the wedding. But soon he finds a solution to this problem. On the advice of his friend Suleyman, Asker dresses up as a street seller of cloth. By selling goods, these sellers can enter houses where the women and girls choosing their cloth don’t cover their faces. Now Asker can go into any yard and choose a bride. The film has a lot of entertaining moments, songs and humour. The black-and-white version of this film has also been restored and can now be viewed in colour. However, this is not the only movie that was filmed in the Old City. For example, in the films Amphibian Man and The Diamond Arm, you can see the streets well known to every Azerbaijaní. 8.

By selling goods, these sellers can enter houses where the women and girls choosing their cloth don’t cover their faces.

There are some places that have few or no earthquakes. Most places in the world, however, have them regularly (有规律的). Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous (多山的). The earthquake which was talked about most in the United States was in San Francisco in 1906. Over 700 people died in it. The strongest one in North America was in 1964. It happened in Alaska. Strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people. In 1755, one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded was felt in Portugal. Around 2,000 people died. In 1923, a very strong earthquake hit the Tokyo, Yokohama area of Japan. A hundred and forty thousand people died. Most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake. One of the worst earthquakes ever was in China in 2008. It killed a large number of people. The worst earthquake ever reported was also in China, in which 400,000 people were killed or injured. This earthquake happened in 1556. Earthquakes worry people a lot. The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. People can not prepare for earthquakes. 12. Earthquakes happen ________. A. in all the places in the world B. only in the countries that have a lot of mountains C. regularly in most places in the world D. only in a few places along the coast 13. When and where was the worst earthquake ever reported? A. In 1964 in Alaska. B. In 1556 in China. C. In 1923 in Japan. D. In 1976 in China. 14.

Earthquakes can cause fires. D. People still don’t know how to tell when an earthquake will come. 15. What may be talked about in the seventh paragraph? A. How do earthquakes worry people? B. What will people do to prepare for earthquakes? C. How can we save people when earthquakes happen? D. How do earthquakes happen? 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15.

This earthquake happened in 1556.”（有报道以来，最严重的地震也发生在中国，造成40万人死亡或受伤。这次地震发生在1556年。）可知，有报道以来，最严重的地震也发生在1556年的中国。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming.”（原因是我们常常不知道它们什么时候会来。）可知，B项和D项是正确的；根据第四段的句子“Most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake.”（他们中的大多数人死于地震后的火灾。）可知，C项是正确的；但文章中没有提到说“地震越强，杀死的人就越多”，这也不符合事实。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理推理题。根据文章最后一句“Earthquakes worry people a lot. The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. People can not prepare for earthquakes.”（地震使人们非常担心。原因是我们常常不知道他们什么时候来。人们无法为地震做好准备。）可知，人们无法为地震做很多准备，所以人们很担忧。因此文章接下来就应是讲人们如何作准备的。故选B项。 第二节 阅读七选五：(共5小题，共12.5分) There are a few tips old people should keep in mind while travelling during the long weekend.

First we visit Mrs. Sokol. I call her “The Cook.” She likes to talk about the time when she was a well-known cook back in Russia. People would come from miles around, just to taste her famous chicken soup. Next we visit Mr. Meyer. I call him “The Joke Man.” He tells us jokes, and laughs at his own jokes, shaking up and down and turning red in the face. Grandpa and I can’t help but laugh along with him, even when the jokes aren’t very funny. Next door is Mr. Lipman. I call him “The Singer” because he loves to sing for us. Whenever he does, his beautiful voice fills the air, so clear and strong that we always sing along with him. Then we visit Mrs. Kagan, “The Grandmother,” who shows us pictures of her grandchildren. They’re all over the room, in frames (画框) and even taped to the walls. One day Grandpa got sick and had to go to the hospital. The doctors said they didn’t think he would ever get better. Saturday came. How could I go visiting the nursing home without Grandpa? Then I remembered what Grandpa once told me: “Nothing should stand in the way of doing a good deed (行为).” So I went alone. Everyone was happy to see me. They were surprised when they didn’t see Grandpa. When I told them that he was sick and in the hospital, they were sad. They told me that Grandpa would have a complete recovery. The Cook went on to reveal (透露) some of her secret recipes (食谱). The Joke Man told me his latest jokes. The Singer sang a song especially for me. The Grandmother showed me more pictures. After a while, I said goodbye to everyone. A few days later, Grandpa was still in the hospital. He was not eating, he could not sit up and he could hardly speak. I went to the corner of the room so Grandpa wouldn’t see me cry. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Suddenly the nurse came into the room and said, “You have some visitors.” _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That evening, Grandpa called the nurse in and said he was hungry. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Suddenly the nurse came into the room and said, “You have some visitors.” I looked up and saw The Joke Man. Behind him were The Cook, The Singer, and The Grandmother. The Cook brought Grandpa a hot bowl of chicken soup. The Joke Man told us some new jokes, and everyone had to dry their eyes from laughing so hard. Next, The Grandmother showed Grandpa a get-well card made by her granddaughters. The Singer started singing, and we sang along with him. Before I knew it, visiting hours were up. Everyone said goodbye and told Grandpa that they would see him again soon. That evening, Grandpa called the nurse in and said he was hungry. Soon he began to sit up. Finally he was able to get out of bed. Each day, Grandpa felt better and better, and he grew stronger and stronger. Soon he was able to go home. The doctors were shocked. They said his recovery was a medical miracle. But I knew the truth: Our friends’ visit had made him well. Grandpa is better now. Every Saturday, without fail, we walk together to visit our friends. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物发展为线索展开。每个星期六，我和爷爷都会走到离家几个街区远的养老院，去看望住在那里的老人。我们先拜访的是Mrs. Sokol，我称呼她为“厨师”，她喜欢谈论她在俄罗斯做著名厨师的事情。随后我们会拜访Mr. Meyer，我把他称为“笑话大师”，他给我们讲笑话，爷爷和我忍不住和他一起笑，即使那些笑话不是很好笑。第三个拜访的是Mr. Lipman，我把他称为“歌手”，因为他喜欢给我们唱歌。最后我们探望的是Mrs. Kagan，我喊她“祖母”，她给我们看她孙子的照片。一天爷爷病了，在医院里。医生说他可能不会好起来了。在接下来周六，我独自去了养老院看望了那里的老人。看到爷爷没出现，他们很惊讶。于是我对他们讲起爷爷生病住院的事，他们很伤心。他们告诉我爷爷会完全康复。几天后，爷爷还在医院里。看着爷爷，我走到房间的角落，哭了。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①根据第一段首句“突然护士进来说“有人来看你了。””可知，接下来的段落应该描述进来的探望者们是谁，这样人的到来给爷爷带来了什么。 ②根据第二段首句“那天晚上，爷爷叫来了护士，说他饿了。”可知，接下来的内容可以描述爷爷的健康恢复的越来越好，我又可以和爷爷在周六散步去拜访我们的朋友了。 2. 续写线索 探望——病房里的温馨——爷爷恢复健康——周六又开始拜访朋友 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①看到：see/notice/find ②带来：bring/carry/get ③拜访：visit/call on/pay a vist 情绪类 ①震惊的：shocked/surprised/astonished 【点睛】【高分句型1】 Behind him were The Cook, The Singer, and The Grandmother. （运用了完全倒装） 【高分句型2】 Everyone said goodbye and told Grandpa that they would see him again soon.（运用了宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023-2024高一下期期中试卷 英语试题 时间100分钟 总分120分 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Here are just a few of the new attractions in some of our favourite places that we’re looking forward to visiting across the world.

But designer Mikhail Belyaev doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella. The designer says he comes up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be all right to have a canopy (伞蓬) built into a street lamp.” he said. The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella in need. Sensors then ensure that the umbrella offers the pedestrians (行人) shelter whenever it starts raining. In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360° motion sensor on the street lamp which detects whether anyone’s using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed. According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough protection for several people. Being installed (安装) at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians. While there are no plans to take Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be fixed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies. 4. For what purpose did Belyaev create the Lampbrella? A. To predict a heavy rain. B. To check the weather forecast. C. To protect people from the rain. D. To remind people to take an umbrella. 5. What do we know from Belyaev’s words in Paragraph 2? A. His creation was inspired by an experience. B. It rains a lot in the city of Saint Petersburg. C. Street lamps are protected by canopies. D He enjoyed taking walks in the rain. 6. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the Lampbrella? A. Its moving speed. B. Its appearance. C. Its installation. D. Its safety. 7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The designer will open a company to promote his product. B. The Lampbrella could be put into immediate production. C. The designer is confident that his creation is practical. D. The Lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow. C The history of Azerbaijani cinema dates back to the end of the 19th century, during which, many excellent movies have been filmed, which are still watched and admired by everyone. These movies were filmed in many beautiful places: from the comfortable and winding streets of the Icharishahar(Old City)—UNESCO World Heritage Site in Baku—to the beautiful fruit gardens and forests of beautiful areas of Azerbaijan. Here, on these streets, one of the most famous Azerbaijani films, Arshin Mal Alan, directed by Rza Tahmasib, was filmed. Filmed in 1945 and characterized by its amazing plot, beautiful music, great singing and acting, Arshin Mal Alan quickly became a box office sensation (轰动). It remains an important cultural touchstone across Eurasia and has been translated into 86languages and shown in 136 countries. The film is about pure love, women’s rights, and a young couple’s dreams for a modern way of life. The plot tells us about a rich young man named Asker. One day, he decides to get married. However, according to the Eastern rule, a bride (新娘) needs to cover her face before the wedding. But soon he finds a solution to this problem. On the advice of his friend Suleyman, Asker dresses up as a street seller of cloth. By selling goods, these sellers can enter houses where the women and girls choosing their cloth don’t cover their faces. Now Asker can go into any yard and choose a bride. The film has a lot of entertaining moments, songs and humour. The black-and-white version of this film has also been restored and can now be viewed in colour. However, this is not the only movie that was filmed in the Old City. For example, in the films Amphibian Man and The Diamond Arm, you can see the streets well known to every Azerbaijaní. 8. What can we know about Arshin Mal Alan? A. It was filmed before 1945. B. It is popular around the world. C. It is an action film with amazing plot. D. It can be viewed in black and white only. 9. What is the Eastern rule about marriage in Arshin Mal Alan? A. A man must be rich in order to marry his bride. B. A man must dress up as a seller at the wedding. C. A man mustn’t see his bride’s face before the wedding. D. A man must buy a house for his bride before the wedding. 10. Why does Asker dress up as a seller of cloth? A. To choose a bride. B. To make a film. C. To work in the street. D. To earn more money. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. The street culture in Azerbaijan. B. The history of black-and-white TV. C. A love story between Asker and his bride. D. A famous movie filmed in Old City—Icharishahar. D Earthquakes are something that people fear. There are some places that have few or no earthquakes. Most places in the world, however, have them regularly (有规律的). Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous (多山的). The earthquake which was talked about most in the United States was in San Francisco in 1906. Over 700 people died in it. The strongest one in North America was in 1964. It happened in Alaska. Strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people. In 1755, one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded was felt in Portugal. Around 2,000 people died. In 1923 a very strong earthquake hit the Tokyo, Yokohama area of Japan. A hundred and forty thousand people died. Most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake. One of the worst earthquakes ever was in China in 2008. It killed a large number of people. The worst earthquake ever reported was also in China, in which 400,000 people were killed or injured. This earthquake happened in 1556. Earthquakes worry people a lot. The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. People can not prepare for earthquakes. 12.
