The piano, her passion and her friend, instills a sense of wonder in life each day, making her a source of inspiration to all. Colette Maze was born in Paris in 1914. She started playing the piano at the age of five. As a young student, she was taught a technique by the legendary piano master Alfred Cortot, which focuses on relaxing the arms and hands when playing. To this day, the manner in which Colette Maze touches the piano while playing the tender music of Robert Schumann and Claude Debussy is still unusual and attractive. Contrary to the social conventions of the times, Maze decided to pursue music as a career. “She decided she was an artist, a musician, not a housewife, so she married the piano,” said her son Fabrice Maze. Later she became a piano teacher and a single mother with great difficulty. The piano always brings her solace. “Music is an affective language and a poetic language. In music, there is everything — nature, emotion, love, dreams,” Colette Maze said. Colette Maze’s talent and enthusiasm are priceless, especially during the times of the pandemic. “She helps improve morale (士气). Though at an old age, she is in good form for she has passion and can look after herself. Her sense of humor, her joy and her love of life make other people smile,” Fabrice Maze said. Colette Maze explained that life is not about being old or young. “Youth is inside us. Life is all about staying passionate and curious. You can’t let that slip away. If you appreciate what’s beautiful around you, you will find a sense of wonder in it,” she said. 4. How did Alfred Cortot influence Colette Maze? A. He presented her with a special piano. B. He invited famous pianists to train her. C. He took her to enjoy piano concerts. D. He taught her an approach to play the piano. 5. What does the underlined word “solace” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Pity. B. Comfort. C. Clue. D. Trouble. 6. What can we learn from Fabrice Maze’s words in Paragraph 4? A. Colette has been changed a lot by music. B. Colette is highly valued by musicians. C. Colette inspires others to live with strength. D. Colette don’t care about others’ lives. 7. What lesson can we take from Colette Maze’s story? A. Be active and passionate about life forever. B. Family support is important to career success. C. Repeat helps to promote excellence. D. Communicating with masters always helps one become better. C Of the many colorful Romanian traditions that are brought to life every year, the Bear Dance is one of the most inspiring. This folk tradition dates back to thousands of years ago. Traditionally, the arrival of the “bears” starts by a small group of “irozi”, who blow whistles (口哨) to a rhythm set by the head bear tamer (训兽师). Chosen for his leadership skills, the head tamer is the one who decides when each of the acts is played and gives the cues. The “bears” dance to the beat set by the pan flutes and the drums. Wearing the special costumes requires strength and must be handled with confidence, to look fierce, with the heaviest of costumes weighing up to 50 kilos. When the person wearing the costume is standing up straight, the “bear” looks up. During the dance, the wearer must bend forward and shake his or her body to the left and to the right while taking small steps either to the front or to the side. The Bear Dance symbolizes the death and rebirth of time. The Bear Dance sees men of all ages, and increasingly more women, who are dressed in real bear skins and dance to the rhythm of pan flutes and drums to drive off evil spirits and ring in the new year. Performed between Christmas and New Year’s Eve, this ancient ritual brings together the whole community, who gather to watch the performance. By tradition, the procession of the Bear Dance, which includes 6 to 24 “bears”, would visit every family of the village, accompanied by up to three singing bear tamers, several characters wearing women’s clothes and drummers. While this tradition is still observed in many villages, in cities and towns it usually takes the form of a parade that takes place at the end of a major performance in the center. 8. What do we know about the Bear Dance? A. It is performed by bears only. B. It is better celebrated in cities. C. It is a tradition with a long history. D. It is used for daily sports by the locals in Romania. 9. How does the Bear Dance begin? A. Several characters beat drums. B. The head bear tamer dances to a rhythm. C. Some performers blow the pan flutes. D. A group of people blow whistles. 10. Why do the locals hold the Bear Dance every year? A. To welcome the arrival of the new year. B. To celebrate a good harvest in the past year. C. To call on people to protect wild animals. D. To provide themselves with a way to have fun. 11. Which section of a magazine is the text probably taken from? A. Nature. B. Culture. C. Economy. D. Environment. D Should humans explore space? If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer. The exploration of space has a direct impact on the lives of humans, as well as the state of our world. Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world, connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide. The Global Positioning System (GPS) can identify our location anywhere. Furthermore, weather satellites can predict harmful weather conditions. It allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives. Space programs can also indirectly contribute to the solution to poverty and world hunger. For example, large pieces of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies. The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures such as the condition of crops, soil rainfall and droughts. It can then send this information to ground stations on the earth for better use. Furthermore, access to better education means better life prospects and opportunities for human beings. Rural (乡村的) communities have disadvantaged access to education. And satellite communication technologies are trying to bridge this gap. With the development of technology, students can now access any information and connect with peers and teachers in different parts of the world through video conferences and the creation of virtual classrooms. Space exploration is something we can do for future generations. Mankind is using the resources provided on the planet, but these will run out one day. Overpopulation can be a threat for all mankind. With the development of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets. 12. What can space exploration do according to Paragraph 2? A. Improve the traffic on the earth. B. Promote travel between countries. C. Help prevent deadly natural disasters. D. Help humans communicate and exchange information. 13. How can space programs help with poverty and world hunger? A. By benefiting crop production with artificial earth satellites. B. By transporting food worldwide more easily. C. By creating job opportunities for the poor. D. By protecting available electricity resources. 14. What does the author think of exploring mining resources on other planets? A. Time-wasting. B. Arguable C. Necessary. D. Useless. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Why Is Space Exploration Important? B Why Should Humankind Keep Thinking? C. Why Should We Recover Space Technology? D. Why Should Humans Keep Developing Technologies? 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。 If you’re a teenager, starting good money habits now will put you ahead for the rest of your life. ____16____ Understand the power of time. ____17____ What matters is time.

They took responsibility for us, gave instructions, organized school activities, and proudly wore their badges(徽章) while carrying our school flag and walking on the playground. They represented us and gave speeches on school issues, becoming our role models. As I grew older, I finally can take part in the school elections. I prepared my election speech and on the day of the speeches, everyone voted. I was hopeful and prayed for a victory. However, the following morning when we gathered on the school grounds for the head-teacher’s announcement of the results, reality hit me hard. I realized that I had no chance of winning—was neither well known nor too pretty. I became depressed and felt as though I had no friends supporting me. Later that day, as I cried in my room, I took a deep breath and decided to change my attitude. I refused to see myself as a failure and made a determination to run for the school elections again the following year—this time, with a plan to win. I sat down at my study table and wrote down my thoughts. Although my competitors had certain advantages such as their stylish personalities, I recognized my own advantages—good grades, friendliness, helpfulness, and most importantly, my faith in myself to be a great leader. With a whole year ahead, I began to plan my election strategies that evening. To gain recognition(认可) and show my ability to represent my fellow students, I started making new friends and helping them at school. Besides, I attended a public speaking course to learn how to give a great election speech. By the time the elections came around, I was well-prepared, and I gave a passionate speech on the stage. 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150 左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The following day, I anxiously waited for the results. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, I realized that I had achieved far more than what I had expected. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 富平县2023～2024学年度第二学期期末质量检测 高一英语试题 注意事项： 1. 本试题共10页，满分150分，时间120分钟。 2. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名和准考证号填写在答题卡上。 3. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4. 考试结束后，监考员将答题卡按顺序收回，装袋整理；试题不回收。 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从试题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shin?

She started playing the piano at the age of five. As a young student, she was taught a technique by the legendary piano master Alfred Cortot, which focuses on relaxing the arms and hands when playing. To this day, the manner in which Colette Maze touches the piano while playing the tender music of Robert Schumann and Claude Debussy is still unusual and attractive. Contrary to the social conventions of the times, Maze decided to pursue music as a career. “She decided she was an artist, a musician, not a housewife, so she married the piano,” said her son Fabrice Maze. Later she became a piano teacher and a single mother with great difficulty. The piano always brings her solace. “Music is an affective language and a poetic language. In music, there is everything — nature, emotion, love, dreams,” Colette Maze said. Colette Maze’s talent and enthusiasm are priceless, especially during the times of the pandemic. “She helps improve morale (士气). Though at an old age, she is in good form for she has passion and can look after herself. Her sense of humor, her joy and her love of life make other people smile,” Fabrice Maze said. Colette Maze explained that life is not about being old or young. “Youth is inside us. Life is all about staying passionate and curious. You can’t let that slip away. If you appreciate what’s beautiful around you, you will find a sense of wonder in it,” she said. 4. How did Alfred Cortot influence Colette Maze? A. He presented her with a special piano. B. He invited famous pianists to train her. C. He took her to enjoy piano concerts. D. He taught her an approach to play the piano. 5.

This folk tradition dates back to thousands of years ago. Traditionally, the arrival of the “bears” starts by a small group of “irozi”, who blow whistles (口哨) to a rhythm set by the head bear tamer (训兽师). Chosen for his leadership skills, the head tamer is the one who decides when each of the acts is played and gives the cues. The “bears” dance to the beat set by the pan flutes and the drums. Wearing the special costumes requires strength and must be handled with confidence, to look fierce, with the heaviest of costumes weighing up to 50 kilos. When the person wearing the costume is standing up straight, the “bear” looks up. During the dance, the wearer must bend forward and shake his or her body to the left and to the right while taking small steps either to the front or to the side. The Bear Dance symbolizes the death and rebirth of time. The Bear Dance sees men of all ages, and increasingly more women, who are dressed in real bear skins and dance to the rhythm of pan flutes and drums to drive off evil spirits and ring in the new year. Performed between Christmas and New Year’s Eve, this ancient ritual brings together the whole community, who gather to watch the performance. By tradition, the procession of the Bear Dance, which includes 6 to 24 “bears”, would visit every family of the village, accompanied by up to three singing bear tamers, several characters wearing women’s clothes and drummers. While this tradition is still observed in many villages, in cities and towns it usually takes the form of a parade that takes place at the end of a major performance in the center. 8.

If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer. The exploration of space has a direct impact on the lives of humans, as well as the state of our world. Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world, connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide. The Global Positioning System (GPS) can identify our location anywhere. Furthermore, weather satellites can predict harmful weather conditions. It allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives. Space programs can also indirectly contribute to the solution to poverty and world hunger. For example, large pieces of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies. The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures such as the condition of crops, soil rainfall and droughts. It can then send this information to ground stations on the earth for better use. Furthermore, access to better education means better life prospects and opportunities for human beings. Rural (乡村的) communities have disadvantaged access to education. And satellite communication technologies are trying to bridge this gap. With the development of technology, students can now access any information and connect with peers and teachers in different parts of the world through video conferences and the creation of virtual classrooms. Space exploration is something we can do for future generations. Mankind is using the resources provided on the planet, but these will run out one day. Overpopulation can be a threat for all mankind. With the development of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets. 12. What can space exploration do according to Paragraph 2? A. Improve the traffic on the earth. B. Promote travel between countries. C. Help prevent deadly natural disasters. D. Help humans communicate and exchange information. 13. How can space programs help with poverty and world hunger? A. By benefiting crop production with artificial earth satellites. B. By transporting food worldwide more easily. C. By creating job opportunities for the poor. D. By protecting available electricity resources. 14. What does the author think of exploring mining resources on other planets? A. Time-wasting. B. Arguable C. Necessary. D. Useless. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Why Is Space Exploration Important? B. Why Should Humankind Keep Thinking? C. Why Should We Recover Space Technology? D. Why Should Humans Keep Developing Technologies? 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章具体介绍了进行探索太空的好处和必要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world, connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide. (围绕地球运行的卫星使世界各地的通信成为可能，它将不同大陆的人们联系在一起，向全世界广播信息。)”可知，太空探索可以帮助人类沟通和交换信息。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures such as the condition of crops, soil rainfall, and droughts. It can then send this information to ground stations on the earth for better use. (最有效的工具是人造地球卫星。它可以在很短的时间内对陆地区域进行筛选，指示诸如作物状况、土壤降雨和干旱等有用的措施。然后，它可以将这些信息发送到地球上的地面站，以便更好地利用。)”可知，太空项目可以通过利用人造地球卫星促进作物生产来帮助消除贫困和世界饥饿。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Mankind is using the resources provided on the planet, but these will run out one day. Overpopulation can be a threat for all mankind. With the development of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets. (人类正在使用地球上提供的资源，但这些资源总有一天会耗尽。人口过剩可能对全人类构成威胁。随着太空技术的发展，使用和探索其他行星的巨大潜力将是明智的，例如小行星或其他行星上的采矿资源的可用性。)”可知，地球上的资源是有限的，利用太空技术去使用和探索其他行星的巨大潜力是明智之举。由此可知，作者认为在其他星球上开采资源是必要的。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段“Should humans explore space? If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer. (人类应该探索太空吗？如果你问我，我肯定会给一个肯定的答案。)”可知，文章认为人类应该进行太空探索，具体介绍了探索太空的好处和必要性。因此，A项“为什么太空探索很重要？”符合文章主旨，最适合作为标题。故选A项。 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。 If you’re a teenager, starting good money habits now will put you ahead for the rest of your life. ____16____ Understand the power of time. ____17____ What matters is time.

They took responsibility for us, gave instructions, organized school activities, and proudly wore their badges(徽章) while carrying our school flag and walking on the playground. They represented us and gave speeches on school issues, becoming our role models. As I grew older, I finally can take part in the school elections. I prepared my election speech and on the day of the speeches, everyone voted. I was hopeful and prayed for a victory. However, the following morning when we gathered on the school grounds for the head-teacher’s announcement of the results, reality hit me hard. I realized that I had no chance of winning—was neither well known nor too pretty. I became depressed and felt as though I had no friends supporting me. Later that day, as I cried in my room, I took a deep breath and decided to change my attitude. I refused to see myself as a failure and made a determination to run for the school elections again the following year—this time, with a plan to win. I sat down at my study table and wrote down my thoughts. Although my competitors had certain advantages such as their stylish personalities, I recognized my own advantages—good grades, friendliness, helpfulness, and most importantly, my faith in myself to be a great leader. With a whole year ahead, I began to plan my election strategies that evening. To gain recognition(认可) and show my ability to represent my fellow students, I started making new friends and helping them at school. Besides, I attended a public speaking course to learn how to give a great election speech. By the time the elections came around, I was well-prepared, and I gave a passionate speech on the stage. 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150 左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The following day, I anxiously waited for the results. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, I realized that I had achieved far more than what I had expected. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: The following day, I anxiously waited for the results. Would my effort pay off? Would I achieve my goal of becoming one of the student leaders? When the principal eventually announced that I had been elected with the second-highest number of votes, I couldn’t help but jump up with excitement. With a bright smile, I walked up to the stage to loud cheers from my fellow students. Their joy showed me that my victory was not just mine, but theirs as well. Later, I realized that I had gained far more than what I had expected. In addition to being appointed as one of the student leaders, I had made numerous friends along the way who now saw me as someone always willing to lend a helping hand. While pursuing my dream, I had become a source of inspiration and hope for other students. By being myself, I had shown them that success would be achievable for anyone if they stuck to their goals, worked hard and believed in themselves. 【解析】 【导语】本文以竞选学生领袖为线索展开，讲述了作者从小就想成为一名学生领袖，在满怀信心参加竞选后，却惨遭失败。作者不气馁，继续努力，做好充足准备，团结同学，参加培训，第二年竞选成功的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，我焦急地等待着结果。”可知，第一段可描写作者得到结果后的激动心情。 ②由第二段首句内容“后来，我意识到我所取得的成就远远超过了我的预期。”可知，第二段可描写作者成功当选之外的实际意义。 2.续写线索：宣布——当选——激动——欢呼——喜悦——交友助人——继续努力——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①宣布：announce/declare ②当选：be elected/win an election ③实现：achieve/realize 情绪类 ①激动地：with excitement/passionately ②努力地：hard/diligently 【点睛】 [高分句型1].
