With no donkey experience, I was unprepared for what might come next. After some difficulty, Daisy’s baby was born. I thought the poor thing was dead. I planned to put the loss behind us and make sure she never got pregnant again. Just then, I heard a little noise. I couldn’t believe that baby was breathing and looking at me! We called him Samson, and of course I became his mother as much as Daisy was. When Samson was nine months old, I had to separate Daisy and Samson for a few hours a day to wean(使断奶) him, but otherwise he went wherever she did. I thought he would be lost without her. His donkey stepdad Bernard taught him to always be ready to have fun. They enjoyed playing football together and going for a roll on a hot summer day. I asked a worker to make a harness(马具)for my three little donkeys. When I brought it home, I taught them one by one how to pull a cart. Samson watched and freely followed Daisy. When he was three, I put the harness on him and he knew exactly what to do. That was 15 years ago. Now, the most exciting thing about Samson is that he has become a little renowned. People come from all over to see him perform. The neighbors bring their grandchildren, and my sons bring their friends. Samson shakes hands, unties my shoes, picks up a hat and more. And when I ask him if he has any bad habits, he tries to pick my pocket! He surprisingly learned these tricks himself. I just ask him to do them and he understands. The relationship I have with my “baby” Samson has been an amazing experience. Every day is a fun day with this superstar donkey. 4. Why was the author at a loss for what might happen next at first?

C Cimabue, the greatest painter of a Middle Ages in Italy, was surprised one day after his lunch break to discover that a fly had seated itself under the nose of a character that he had been working on. He swatted (重拍) at the fly, but it did not move. He reached out to touch the insect, only to find it was only wet paint. Turning around, he saw that his apprentice (学徒), Giotto, was laughing. Giotto had painted the fly when Cimabue was away, and it looked so real that Cimabue had been completely fooled. Giotto di Bondone was born into a poor family in a village. Legend has it that one day, when Cimabue was wandering around the countryside, he spotted a young shepherd boy drawing pictures of his sheep, which were so vivid that Cimabue immediately asked him to come to Florence and learn how to paint. That was how Giotto’s story began in Florence, where the young student flourished under Cimabue s instruction and soon surpassed his master in skill. At that time, people in paintings didn’t look real, and the symbolism of art was difficult for viewers to connect with it. Innovation (创新) was not stressed, so art had remained the same for hundreds of years. However, Giotto thought art should be something more connected with people in a more realistic way. His masterpieces included the forty major frescoes (壁画) for the Arena Chapel. Adopting many techniques that were uncommon then, he painted people the way he saw them, instead of the overly tall and boxy people that other artists painted. He created three-dimensional space by using perspective, something that had not been done since Roman times. In addition to painting, Giotto wrote poetry and drew architectural plans. When Giotto was in his sixties, he painted the Ognissanti Madomma, another famous work of art. He continued working until the age of seventy. The ideas Giotto brought to painting throughout his life revolutionized the art world and made him one of the greatest painters ever. 8. What does the anecdote in paragraph 1 tell us about Giotto? A. His humor B. His talent C. His courage D. His determination 9. How did Cimabue feel about Giotto’s painting when they first met? A. Impressed B. Stressed C. Doubtful D. Concerned 10. What made Giotto’s works distinguished at that time? A. Vivid colors B. Classic skills C. Original composition D. Lifelike quality 11. Which of the following best summarizes Giott’s story? A. Great minds think alike B. Innovation is the vitality of art C. Constant dripping wears away a stone D. A slow sparrow should make an early start D If a president, a legendary philosopher, and one of the best-selling authors of all time credited the same secret for their success, would you try to follow it too? What if the secret was something you already knew how to do? In fact, you probably do it every day. 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 perish (死亡).” Researchers have traced numerous connections between walking and generating ideas. A Stanford University study found that participants were 81 percent more creative when walking as opposed to sitting. According to the study, walking outside — versus on a treadmill (跑步机) — produces the most novel and highest-quality ideas in participants who walked and then sat down to do creative work. The movement aspect of walking is obviously key. You’ve probably heard the phrase Exercise your creativity, which refers to the brain as muscle. Our creative mindset is triggered by physical movement, which is exactly why walking — with your dog, a friend, or alone — feeds creative thinking. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your habitual surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. 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 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 conversations 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. 12. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To inform us of the examples of these great minds. B. To stress the importance of walking. C. To explain why walking is popular with people. D. To show the great influence of the great minds have on us. 13. What does the writer probably support? A. By going outside, one can’t help but get distracted by the scenery. B. Walking on a treadmill makes participants do the most creative work. C. It is necessary to walk out of your habitual surroundings and comfort zone. D. Absorbed in multimedia and technology, hikers can increase performance on creative problem-solving tasks. 14. What does the underlined word “triggered” mean in paragraph 3? A. Caused. B. Changed. C. Covered. D. Cured. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Developing a good habit of walking. B. Benefits of walking. C. New possibilities of walking. D Walking for a more creative mind. 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。 ___16___ Well, many people travel because they want to see other countries and visit places that are famous, interesting or beautiful.

He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West. We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Upon Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos. His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm,” he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens, while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze (吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool. In the afternoon, I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper,” Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track (足迹；踪迹) so that you don’t get lost!” “OK!” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine (松树) trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven (编织的) blanket spread out upon the ground just for us. 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。 Paragraph 1 Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力：1—5 AACCB 6—10 BACBC 11—15 BCABA 16—20 CACBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2022—2023学年下学期第一次月考 高一英语试题 说明：本试卷分第1卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分,全卷满分150分。考试用时120分钟, 第I卷 第一部分听力（共两节,满分30分） 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, 从题中所给的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。 1.

With no donkey experience, I was unprepared for what might come next. After some difficulty, Daisy’s baby was born. I thought the poor thing was dead. I planned to put the loss behind us and make sure she never got pregnant again. Just then, I heard a little noise. I couldn’t believe that baby was breathing and looking at me! We called him Samson, and of course I became his mother as much as Daisy was. When Samson was nine months old, I had to separate Daisy and Samson for a few hours a day to wean(使断奶) him, but otherwise he went wherever she did. I thought he would be lost without her. His donkey stepdad Bernard taught him to always be ready to have fun. They enjoyed playing football together and going for a roll on a hot summer day. I asked a worker to make a harness(马具)for my three little donkeys. When I brought it home, I taught them one by one how to pull a cart. Samson watched and freely followed Daisy.

They enjoyed playing football together and going for a roll on a hot summer day.”（但除此之外，黛西去哪里，他就去哪里。我以为没有她他会不知所措。他的驴继父伯纳德教他时刻准备着享受乐趣。他们喜欢在炎热的夏天一起踢足球，一起去打滚。）可知，Samson跟妈妈形影不离，和Bernard一起快乐地玩耍，故可推知，Samson小时候被浓浓的爱包围。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“When he was three, I put the harness on him and he knew exactly what to do.”（他三岁的时候，我给他套上了马具他就知道该怎么做了。）以及倒数第二段“Samson shakes hands, unties my shoes, picks up a hat and more. And when I ask him if he has any bad habits, he tries to pick my pocket! He surprisingly learned these tricks himself. I just ask him to do them and he understands.”（Samson和我握手，解开我的鞋子，拿起帽子等等。当我问他有没有什么坏习惯时，他却想偷我的口袋！令人惊讶的是，他自己学会了这些技巧。我只要让他去做，他就能理解。）可知，Samson学会了拉小货车，而且自己学会了很多小把戏，他的表演很受欢迎，故可推知，他非常聪明活泼。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“The relationship I have with my “baby” Samson has been an amazing experience. Every day is a fun day with this superstar donkey.”（我和我的“宝贝”Samson的关系是一段奇妙的经历。和这头超级巨星驴在一起的每一天都很有趣。）可知，文章主要讲的是作者和她的“宝贝”Samson的关系是一段奇妙的经历。和这头超级巨星驴在一起的每一天都很有趣。可推知，这段文字可能来自一本故事杂志。故选B项。 C Cimabue, the greatest painter of a Middle Ages in Italy, was surprised one day after his lunch break to discover that a fly had seated itself under the nose of a character that he had been working on. He swatted (重拍) at the fly, but it did not move. He reached out to touch the insect, only to find it was only wet paint. Turning around, he saw that his apprentice (学徒), Giotto, was laughing. Giotto had painted the fly when Cimabue was away, and it looked so real that Cimabue had been completely fooled. Giotto di Bondone was born into a poor family in a village. Legend has it that one day, when Cimabue was wandering around the countryside, he spotted a young shepherd boy drawing pictures of his sheep, which were so vivid that Cimabue immediately asked him to come to Florence and learn how to paint. That was how Giotto’s story began in Florence, where the young student flourished under Cimabue s instruction and soon surpassed his master in skill. At that time, people in paintings didn’t look real, and the symbolism of art was difficult for viewers to connect with it. Innovation (创新) was not stressed, so art had remained the same for hundreds of years. However, Giotto thought art should be something more connected with people in a more realistic way. His masterpieces included the forty major frescoes (壁画) for the Arena Chapel. Adopting many techniques that were uncommon then, he painted people the way he saw them, instead of the overly tall and boxy people that other artists painted. He created three-dimensional space by using perspective, something that had not been done since Roman times. In addition to painting, Giotto wrote poetry and drew architectural plans. When Giotto was in his sixties, he painted the Ognissanti Madomma, another famous work of art. He continued working until the age of seventy. The ideas Giotto brought to painting throughout his life revolutionized the art world and made him one of the greatest painters ever. 8. What does the anecdote in paragraph 1 tell us about Giotto? A. His humor B. His talent C. His courage D. His determination 9. How did Cimabue feel about Giotto’s painting when they first met? A. Impressed B. Stressed C. Doubtful D. Concerned 10. What made Giotto’s works distinguished at that time? A. Vivid colors B. Classic skills C. Original composition D. Lifelike quality 11. Which of the following best summarizes Giott’s story? A. Great minds think alike B. Innovation is the vitality of art C. Constant dripping wears away a stone D. A slow sparrow should make an early start 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了意大利的画家Giotto di Bondone在绘画方面的思想，改变了艺术界，使他成为有史以来最伟大的画家之一。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“He swatted (重拍) at the fly, but it did not move. He reached out to touch the insect, only to find it was only wet paint. Giotto had painted the fly when Cimabue was away, and it looked so real that Cimabue had been completely fooled. (他拍苍蝇，但它不动。他伸手去摸那只昆虫，却发现那只是未干的油漆。Giotto是在Cimabue不在的时候画的这只苍蝇，它看起来如此真实，Cimabue完全被骗了。)”可知，Giotto趁Cimabue不在时画得苍蝇，让他信以为真，这表明了Giotto的才能。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Legend has it that one day, when Cimabue was wandering around the countryside, he spotted a young shepherd boy drawing pictures of his sheep, which were so vivid that Cimabue immediately asked him to come to Florence and learn how to paint.(传说有一天，Cimabue在乡下闲逛时，发现一个年轻的牧童正在画他的羊，画得非常生动，Cimabue立即邀请他来佛罗伦萨学习画画。)”可知，第一次见Giotto时，Cimabue认为他的画让人印象深刻。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“However, Giotto thought art should be something more connected with people in a more realistic way. (然而，Giotto认为艺术应该以一种更现实的方式与人们联系在一起。)”以及“he painted people the way he saw them, instead of the overly tall and boxy people that other artists painted. (他以自己所看到的方式来描绘人物，而不是像其他艺术家画的那样过分高大、四四方方的人。)”可知，Giotto的画因其栩栩如生的特点而与众不同。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Innovation (创新) was not stressed, so art had remained the same for hundreds of years. (创新没有被强调，所以艺术几百年来一直保持不变。)”、第四段“Adopting many techniques that were uncommon then, he painted people the way he saw them (他采用了许多当时并不常见的技巧，以他所看到的方式来描绘人物)”和最后一段“The ideas Giotto brought to painting throughout his life revolutionized the art world and made him one of the greatest painters ever. (Giotto一生带给绘画的理念彻底改变了艺术界，使他成为有史以来最伟大的画家之一。)”可知，文章主要叙述了Giotto对艺术创新的故事，即“创新是艺术的生命力”。故选B项。 D If a president, a legendary philosopher, and one of the best-selling authors of all time credited the same secret for their success, would you try to follow it too? What if the secret was something you already knew how to do? In fact, you probably do it every day. 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 perish (死亡).” Researchers have traced numerous connections between walking and generating ideas. A Stanford University study found that participants were 81 percent more creative when walking as opposed to sitting. According to the study, walking outside — versus on a treadmill (跑步机) — produces the most novel and highest-quality ideas in participants who walked and then sat down to do creative work. The movement aspect of walking is obviously key. You’ve probably heard the phrase Exercise your creativity, which refers to the brain as muscle. Our creative mindset is triggered by physical movement, which is exactly why walking — with your dog, a friend, or alone — feeds creative thinking. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your habitual surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. 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 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 conversations 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. 12. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To inform us of the examples of these great minds. B. To stress the importance of walking. C. To explain why walking is popular with people. D. To show the great influence of the great minds have on us. 13. What does the writer probably support? A. By going outside, one can’t help but get distracted by the scenery. B. Walking on a treadmill makes participants do the most creative work. C. It is necessary to walk out of your habitual surroundings and comfort zone. D. Absorbed in multimedia and technology, hikers can increase performance on creative problem-solving tasks. 14. What does the underlined word “triggered” mean in paragraph 3? A. Caused. B. Changed. C. Covered. D. Cured. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Developing a good habit of walking. B. Benefits of walking. C. New possibilities of walking. D. Walking for a more creative mind. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述走路有助于创造力的激发与思维的发散。 12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“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 perish(死亡).”(Friedrich Nietzsche曾写道：‘只有从行走中获得的思想才有价值。’Thomas Jefferson：‘散步是最好的锻炼方式。让自己习惯于走很远的路。’Charles Dickens曾说过：‘如果我不能走得又远又快，我想我就会爆炸并死亡。’)”结合下文介绍走路有助于创造力的激发和思维发散推知，本段引用了几段名人的话来强调走路的重要性。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your habitual surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities.(只要走出去，你就走出了你习惯的环境和你的舒适区，如果你想打开你的心扉，迎接新的可能性，这是必要的)”可知，作者认为走出你的习惯环境和舒适区是很有必要的。故选C。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“which is exactly why walking — with your dog, a friend, or alone — feeds creative thinking(这就是为什么散步——与你的狗、朋友或独自散步——能培养创造性思维)”可知，走路能够培养创造性思维，由此可推知画线部分所在句意为“我们的创造性思维是由身体运动引发的”， triggered意为“引起”。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合倒数第三段的“You’ve probably heard the phrase Exercise your creativity, which refers to the brain as muscle. Our creative mindset is triggered by physical movement, which is exactly why walking — with your dog, a friend, or alone — feeds creative thinking. (你可能听过“锻炼你的创造力”这句话，它把大脑比作肌肉。我们的创造性思维是由身体运动引发的，这正是为什么与你的狗、朋友或独自散步会激发创造性思维的原因)”可知，文章主要介绍了走路有助于创造力的激发与思维的发散，故选D。 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。 ___16___ Well, many people travel because they want to see other countries and visit places that are famous, interesting or beautiful.

He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West. We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Upon Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos. His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm,” he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens, while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze (吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool. In the afternoon, I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper,” Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track (足迹；踪迹) so that you don’t get lost!” “OK!” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine (松树) trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven (编织的) blanket spread out upon the ground just for us. 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。 Paragraph 1 Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1 Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. Dad and I found it was so cute that we decided to run after it. After a while, we were completely lost in the forest. There was nothing left in our sight but the trees. “We may not be able to make it back to the farm house in time for supper.” I thought to myself. After a series of useless attempts to find a way out, we felt hungry and tired. Paragraph 2 We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark. We got stuck in the forest. And an unexpected shower added to the difficulty of us in finding a way home, for all the tracks we had made disappeared because of the rain. I was almost breaking down when my father said, “Don’t worry, my son. I remember there is a river near the farm house. Find the river and we will be back home.” Finally, we found the river and got back to the house along it. Needless to say, we ate a late dinner. 【解析】 【导语】本文以时间为线索。讲述了父亲带儿子去“西部荒野”，喂鸡牧羊，体验农场生活；见父亲和叔叔骑马很是潇洒，儿子心生向往，于是亲身上马体验，在骑马的过程中发生的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段所给首句“Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse.( 突然，一只小兔子跳到我的马前。) ”可知，这一句是故事发展的转折点，可从rabbit出现后带来的结果入手扩展开去，可以写看到可爱的兔子，父子俩去追兔子，结果迷路以及在这种情况下父子俩的反应。 ②由第二段所给首句“We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark.( 我们不知道自己身在何处，天渐渐黑了。) ”这一句呼应前文Uncle Paul的嘱托——不要误了晚饭，可从如何寻路返回入手去写续文。 2.续写线索 追兔子——迷路——寻找出路——迷茫——困住——下雨——崩溃——找到出路——回家 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①追逐：run after/go after ②迷路：lost in/lose one’s way ③找到出路：find a way out/find one’s way 情感类 ①疲惫：tired/tired out/exhausted/worn out ②崩溃：break down/fall apart 【点睛】【高分句型1】There was nothing left in our sight but the trees.（运用了过去分词作定语） 【高分句型2】Find the river and we will be back home.（运用了祈使句+and+陈述句固定句型） 听力：1—5 AACCB 6—10 BACBC 11—15 BCABA 16—20 CACBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
