D．The main characters struggle with something. B Florence Nightingale was born in Florence, Italy, while her wealthy English parents were travelling in Europe. As a child, she travelled to many places with her family and learned how to speak several languages. When Nightingale was 17, she told her family that she was going to help sick people. Her parents did not approve, but Nightingale was determined. She travelled to hospitals all over Europe. She saw that doctors were working too hard. She saw that patients died because they did not get enough care. Nightingale felt that women could be doing more to help doctors take care of sick people. Nightingale knew that in order for nurses to do more, they needed special training in how to take care of sick people. Nightingale went to a hospital in Germany to study nursing. Then she returned to London and became the head of a group of women called Gentlewomen During Illness. These women cared for sick people in their homes. In 1854, England was fighting a war with Russia. No reporters wrote about the terrible conditions in the hospitals that cared for the wounded. People demanded that something be done about it. A leader of the government asked Nightingale to take some nurses into the war hospitals. So, in November 1854, Nightingale finally got to work in a hospital. She took along 38 nurses whom she had trained herself. At first, the doctors on the battlefields did not want Nightingale and her nurses in their hospitals. They did not believe that women could help. But in fact, the nurses did make a difference. They worked around the clock, tending the sick. Thanks to their hard work, many wounded soldiers survived. After the war, Nightingale and her nurses were treated like heroes. Finally, in 1860, she started the Nightingale School for Nurses. In time, thanks to Florence Nightingale, nursing became an important part of medicine. 24．What do we know about Nightingale from paragraph 1? A．She grew up in Italy. B．She visited many places in Italy. C．Her family was rich. D．She could speak several languages fluently. 25．What was Nightingale’s parents’ attitude toward her decision to be a doctor? A．They didn’t care about it. B．They supported it. C．They were happy about it. D．They disagreed with it. 26．How was Nightingale’s attempt about nurses to work with doctors in the hospital? A．It was not practical. B．It turned out to be a success. C．It was rejected by the government. D．It was welcomed by many doctors. 27．What role did Nightingale play according to the passage? A．A reporter of the war. B．A pioneer in women’s illness. C．The founder of modern nursing. D．An educator in women’s education. C We always put into children’s minds that learning to read is extremely important to their future success. But we don’t put that same urgency(迫切性) on adults, even though a large percentage of American adults have a low reading or writing ability. Learning those skills requires many levels of support. Take, for example, the three hours every day in a Louisville community center. Ardo Ahmed and Yurilia Manzanares are among the people sitting in classrooms and listening to teachers. These three hours are about learning English. Yurilia came to the United States from Mexico, and Ardo from Somalia. “Everyone is coming here to learn English, to have the same kind of support as their children,” their teacher Meagan Lamb said. Literacy(读写能力) among adults, specifically among moms, is a concern that reaches far beyond Louisville, far beyond immigrant communities. A Barbara Bush Foundation study found fewer than half of American adults can read beyond a 6th-grade level. A study supported by the National Institutes of Health stated “a mother’s reading skill is the greatest determinant of her children’s future academic(学业的) success.” “There’s a stigma(耻辱) there,” said Felicia Cumings Smith, the new head of the National Center for Families Learning. “There’s quite a bit of funding that goes into literacy for K-12, but if students are not successful during those schooling years, that all comes to an end.” These three hours, every day, make a difference. But they’re only possible because the community center where they take place provides childcare while the parents learn English. The children are learning English, which creates even more stimulus for the parents to learn as well. “The kids are speaking English in school every day,” Meagan said. “And then they go back home, and little by little Spanish doesn’t feel like their native language.” It’s why, in the last of these three hours, Yurilia and Ardo attend “Parent Time”. It’s where they practice not just the language but how to apply it. 28．What is the example used to mainly explain in Paragraph 3? A．Adults actively promote their literacy. B．Immigrants’ English literacy is worrying. C．Many programs are aimed at adults’ literacy. D．Teachers improve adults’ literacy in different ways. 29．What is mainly stressed in Paragraph 4? A．Female illiteracy has affected their work. B．Adult illiteracy is a widespread problem. C．Adult illiteracy exists mainly among immigrants. D．Female illiteracy is more serious than male illiteracy. 30．What enables parents to learn in the community center? A．The service provided. B．The flexible class time. C．The support from their family. D．The increasing need for lifelong learning. 31．What can the underlined word “stimulus” in Paragraph 7 be best replaced by? A．Value. B．Knowledge. C．Evidence. D．Encouragement. D If a president, a philosopher, and one of the bestselling authors of all time credited the same secret for their success, would you try to follow it too? Here’s what Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: “It is only ideas gained from walking that have any worth.” Thomas Jefferson: “Walking is the best possible exercise. Habituate yourself to walk very far.” And Charles Dickens made his point: “If I could not walk far and fast, I think I should just explode and die.” It’s not just these three great figures who thought walking could improve their creativity. A Stanford University study also discovered that participants were 81 percent more creative when walking as opposed to sitting. According to the study, walking outside produces the most novel and highest-quality ideas in participants who walked and then sat down to do creative work. Another famous-person example: As part of his daily writing routine, Kurt Vonnegut would take a midmorning break from his office to walk before eventually returning to work. Our brains work harder to process in different environments, so walking outside helps develop our ability to collect new ideas, to take in new sights, sounds, smells, and flavors. Shinrin-yoku, or “forest bathing,” is a common form of relaxation and medicine in Japan. It was developed in 1982, and recent studies show that being in the forest and walking among the trees lowers your stress levels. But you don’t have to live near a forest to receive the psychological benefits. Research has shown that immersion in nature, and the corresponding disconnection from multimedia and technology, increased performance on a creative problem-solving task by a full 50 percent in a group of hikers. So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking? Turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversation and natural sounds, to notice the way people move, the way the sun reflects in a puddle. Walk not just for exercise. Walk for wonder. 32．Which saying can be inferred from the three person’s’ words in Paragraph1? A．Great minds think alike. B．A still tongue makes a wise head. C．Gentlemen have peace but disagree. D．A wise man appears simple-minded. 33．What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A．Walking with a dog or a friend helps creative thinking. B．Walking is a necessary element of Kurt’s creative process. C．Only a few participants are found to benefit from walking. D．There is no connection between walking and generating ideas. 34．Where does the author most probably recommend us to walk? A．On the running machine. B．Down a busy and crowded street. C．In the science museum. D．Through a tree-filled neighborhood. 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Walk for Wonder B．Set a Creativity Goal C．Start Forest Bathing D．Walk out of the Comfort Zone 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 Living in a culture that is different from your own can be both an exciting and challenging experience. You have to learn different cultural practices and try to adapt to them. 36 . They talk about topics such as ages, income or marital status, which Americans think are annoying. In China, elders are traditionally treated with enormous respect and dignity while the young are cherished and nurtured. In America, the goal of the family is to encourage independence, particularly that of the children. 37 Chinese people have different meanings to define friends. 38 . Friendship means lifelong friends who feel deeply obligated to give each other whatever help might seem required. Americans always call people they meet friends, so the definition of friends is general and different. There are work friends, playing friends, school friends and drinking friends. As is well known, Chinese like to save. 39 . It is different in the USA, where far fewer families are saving money for emergencies and education than Chinese people. 40 If you achieve something in the US, it's because you are great. While in China, if you achieve something it's because the team, or family, or company is great. Everything you do gets attributed to the greater whole, while in America individual virtues are celebrated. A．Just hanging out together from time to time is not friendship B．American people put more emphasis on business and virtues C．Chinese people value education and career more than Americans D．Unlike Chinese, older Americans seldom live with their children E．They are always conservative when they are planning to spend money F．Basically China values the community and the US values the individual G．Chinese people do not have the same concept of privacy as Americans do 第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共215小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，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。 I had an interesting childhood, filled with surprise and delight, all because of my mother — loving, sweet, yet absent-minded and forgetful.

He thought, “Nothing good can come to a nation whose people only complain and expect others to solve their problems.” One day, he had an idea that he could do something to test and teach his people. Early one morning, the king disguised (装扮) himself and went to a local village. He placed a large stone in the middle of the main street and hid some gold coins under the stone. He made it a rule that anyone removing the stone could get the coins. Then he hid behind a huge maple tree and watched. Soon the villagers began their daily routine and came to the street one after another. The first person down the street was a milkman with his cart. He crashed into the stone, spilling the milk everywhere. “What fool put this stone here?” he shouted. He picked himself up and angrily went away. After a while, a group of women came along, each balancing a pot of water on her head. One woman tripped over (绊倒) the stone and her water pot went crashing to the ground. She picked herself up and limped away in tears. Neither she nor her friends thought about moving the stone out of the road. Then came more people. The king watched all morning, only to find that those people complained about the stone, but nobody made an attempt to move it. The king was in despair. “Is there no one in this village who feels any responsibility to keep their neighbors from harm?” Shaking his head, he decided to turn back. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Just then, the king saw a young girl coming along. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just then, the king stepped out from behind the tree. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高一期末英语参考答案： 一．听力 1．A 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．B 6．B 7．B 8．B 9．C 10．C 11．A 12．C 13．B 14．C 15．C 16．C 17．B 18．A 19．C 20．B 二．阅读理解 21．B 22．D 23．D 24．C 25．D 26．B 27．C 28．A 29．B 30．A 31．D 32．A 33．B 34．D 35．A 36．G 37．D 38．A 39．E 40．F 三．完形填空 41．B 42．A 43．C 44．D 45．B 46．A 47．D 48．C 49．A 50．D 51．C 52．A 53．B 54．D 55．B 四．语法填空 56．where 57．a 58．be found 59．agricultural 60．to show 61．others 62．taken 63．beliefs 64．Studying 65．actually 五．书面表达 66．Dear Rose, Knowing that you are interested in Chaozhou Library and my study plan in the summer vacation, I am writing to tell you some details. Located in the center of the city, Chaozhou Library is one of my favorite places. It has a collection of 300,000 books, and it is convenient to get there. Summer vacation is approaching, which means that we can have enough time to study by ourselves. As for my study plan, I would like to go to the library to study every day and do some reading to gain more knowledge. Hopefully, you will come to visit the library and I believe you will have a good time here. Looking forward to your reply. Yours, Li Hua 67．Just then, the king saw a young girl coming along. She had been working in the field all morning. Tired as she was, she stopped to move the stone out of the way when observing it. She thought, “This stone is a danger to anyone who comes down the street after dark.” With all her might and a great deal of effort, she finally managed to move it to the street side. Imagine her surprise when she saw the gold coins where the stone had been! But, as an honest girl, she didn’t want to take them away as her own. Just then, the king stepped out from behind the tree. Seeing this, the girl felt shocked and said, “Oh sir, does this gold belong to you? If not, we surely must find the owner, for he will certainly miss it.” The king said, “My dear, it’s mine. I put it in the road and moved the stone over it. Now the gold is yours, because you are the only person who has learnt the lesson I wanted to teach my people.” To his surprise, the girl didn’t keep it for herself but decided to donate it to the village school. 听力原文 Text1： M: How do you get along with your lessons at school?
