Here is a look at a few of them . Sweeping away bad luck. Many cultures have traditions meant to sweep away evil spirits and bad luck.This often involves(涉及) using fire or loud noises-or both-often in the form of fireworks!In Scotland people walk through the streets and swing huge fireballs over their heads.These fireballs represent the sun and they are supposed to clean the coming year. But there are other ways people do it, too. For example, just before the New Year people in Denmark find the highest place they can and jump from it as the New Year starts.The hope is that they leave behind the evil spirits and bad luck of the previous year and enter a New Year full of promise and new beginnings. Bringing in good luck Many cultures have certain foods that are said to bring good luck.In the southern part of the United States, people often eat black-eyed peas and pork for good luck in the New Year. In Spain, as the clock strikes midnight, people eat 12 grapes.These 12 grapes represent the 12months of the year.Eating them all in the first 12 seconds of the New Year ensures that the year will be filled with good luck. Dressing up for money and love To set the New Year off on the right foot, people in the Philippines wear clothing with golden circles, which stand for making more money in the New Year. In Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezueln,some people wear colorful underwear on New Year’s Eve.The most popular colors are red and yellow.Red is supposed to bring you love: yellow is supposed to bring you money No matter how we celebrate, let’s have a happy, healthy and lucky new year! 1.

It seemed impossible to show the life of the Sage of Poetry (诗圣) in a one- hour documentary and make sure foreign audience could get the culture and spirit of the East. But Michael Wood did it. More works, such as The Story of China, The Story of China’s Reform and Opening Up, have not only touched many in the West, but also been accepted and appreciated by Chinese audience. In Wood’s view, there are already plenty of works about China’s rapid economic (经济的) growth, but many in the West want to know more about its history and culture. He wishes his documentaries can reach the viewers’ hearts. To make it as objective and truthful as possible Wood reached out to many Chinese people who were kind and warm-hearted. Wood recalled that in Shexian County in Anhui Province, a shopkeeper took them around to see the beautiful scenery and helped them with shooting and recording, which left him a deep impression. Wood’s documentaries are full of his love for the Chinese culture, and he managed to pass on that to his audience with different culture experiences. 4. What do we know about the documentary about Du Fu? A. It was Michael’s first work about China. B. It was produced by an American director. C. It shows the life of a famous Chinese poet. D. It tells us economic development in China. 5. According to Wood, what do western people want to know more about China? A. History. B. Scenery. C. Tourism. D. Education. 6. Why did Wood recall his experience in Shexian County? A. To promote the beautiful scenery in the country. B. To show Chinese people’s kindness and warmth. C. To tell us how difficult it was to create the work. D. To make his documentary popular and interesting. 7. What’s the best title for the text? A. The Life Story of Michael Wood B. Western Audience’s New Interests C. China’s Rapid Economic Development D. Michael Wood and His Documentaries C Americans plan parties for many reasons. As in other cultures, many Americans attend parties for weddings and religious or national holidays. But some parties are especially American. For example, a group of neighbors may gather on their street to eat food, play music and visit with one another. This is called a block party. A woman might invite a group of women to a party called a baby shower for a friend who is about to give birth. Guests bring presents for the new baby. Americans also attend tailgate parties. A tailgate is the back end of a truck or other vehicle that opens down. The tailgate parties are a big part of sports culture in the United States. Friends bring food and drink to a sports event. They eat together in the parking area of the sports stadium. Birthday parties are also very popular. Many parents organize a party for their child around a theme. Birthday parties usually include gifts and a birthday cake with candles. In many parts of the United States, cupcakes have become a popular replacement for cakes. Birthday parties can be low cost or very costly. Some parents take their children’s birthday parties very seriously, even when the child is too young to fully understand the celebration. One group of parents started a website called Birthdays Without Pressure. They decided that some parents were under too much social pressure to plan costly parties for their children. The group sees this movement as an example of America’s culture of “too much stuff”. The group’s website gives suggestions on how to keep birthday celebrations simple, meaningful and fun without spending a lot of money. Their advice may be very helpful during this period of economic recession (萧条)． 8 What can be the best title for the passage? A. Reasons for parties B. Birthdays without pressure C. American parties D. Different parties in the world 9. How many kinds of parties does the passage mention? A. 5. B. 6. C. 7. D. 8. 10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Block party is especially American. B. Some parties in America are the same as in other countries. C. There’s a party for the mother before her new baby is born. D. Birthday parties are the most popular in America. 11. The purpose of Birthdays Without Pressure is to advise people to _________. A. relieve people’s pressure B. have meaningful birthday parties with low cost C. make birthday parties meaningful and costly D. spread America’s culture D I was born and raised in England in a culture where privacy and “keeping yourself to yourself” were valued traditions. Speaking to strangers was not encouraged. People were most hospitable and friendly. However, I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US, where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness to be very different. I experienced Italian hospitality firsthand. On a crowded railway carriage travelling, one afternoon, from Genoa to Florence, sinking gratefully into an empty seat, I was scolded in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to this seat ---- it had not been “spare” after all. I apologized in English, and got up to allow him back into the seat. The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the English language, but he, too, realized my genuine (真诚的) mistake. He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat, and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the remainder of the journey. The other occupants of the carriage smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome amongst them. I feel that if this had been in England, a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated. Transport also featured in the differences I noticed between English and American culture. I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers. We sat together in near silence. Nobody spoke to me nor, as I expected, to anyone else they did not know. They felt it was not polite to interrupt someone else’s privacy. However, when I travelled across the United States, whether by plane or bus, I was never short of conversation. Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself. They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person, whether they were strangers or not. 12. What do we know about the occupants when the author was travelling in Italy? A. They were all on the side of the gentleman. B. They all laughed at the author for his mistake. C. They would not bear a mistake like the author’s in public D. They all showed their understanding of the author’s mistake. 13. How does the author finally believe the Italian people are? A. Cold. B. Rude C. Helpful. D. Hospitable. 14. Why did English passengers sit in near silence according to the last paragraph? A. They were too tired to speak to anyone. B. They were all strangers to each other. C. Privacy was a valued tradition in England. D. Everybody was deeply lost in though. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Different Ways of Hospitality and Politeness B. Co-understanding Each Other C. My Unforgettable Travelling Experience Abroad D. The Importance of Privacy 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。 In America, it’s long been a tradition that tips are given to a person who provides good service.

Every day, their teachers gave them loads of homework and told them the test was very important and that they ought to spare no effort to perform well in it. Everyone followed the teachers’ instructions and made preparations for it, except Marc. He just turned a deaf ear to it. He thought he would rather play football than study. His mum and dad repeated the importance of revision for exams over and over again. They told him that he should be working hard preparing for the test. But the weather was sunny and he thought he had better things to do. “Shall we go to the park?” he said to his friend Huck one afternoon. “It’s a nice day. We could play football and kick around.” Huck shook his head. “I’m supposed to review my lessons,” he said. “I’m going home to do some math.” Marc was amazed. “You’d rather do math than play football?” “Math is important. Besides, my mum says she will buy me a mountain bike if I do well in the math exam.” “That’s crazy,” said Marc. Huck shrugged (耸肩) and replied, “Wait until I beat you in the test and you will watch me riding past on my mountain bike!” “You won’t beat me,” said Marc. “Oh yes, I will.” “Oh no, you won’t! That will never happen. Just wait and see!” For the first time ever, Marc wanted to perform well. He couldn’t bear it if his friend came top and he did badly. So when he got home, he opened his math book. But there was so much to do. All of a sudden, he felt like he’d forgotten everything he had learned that year! He didn’t know where to start. When his sister Lily came in, he was sitting expressionlessly by the desk, just staring out of the window. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式作答。 “You don’t look happy, Marc. What’s wrong?” she said. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the exam, Marc went to school with great confidence. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 文山市城南中学2024-2025 学年秋季学期高二年级 第一次月考英语试卷 考试时间：120分钟 总分：150分 注意事项： 1. 答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息。 2. 请将答案正确填写在答题卡上。 第一部分 听力理解(共两节，满分30分) 第一节：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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

Explaining what had happened, especially the bet between him and Huck, he told Lily his decision. He wanted to make careful preparations for the exam, but ran into difficulties with math. He was at a loss what to do next. “Don’t worry! I’ll help you. Just be confident!” replied Lily. The following days, Marc worked very hard and made great progress. Gradually, his confidence grew and he could solve math problems with ease, with the instructions appearing in his brain as if the teacher was standing at his side . On the day of the exam, Marc went to school with great confidence. He met Huck in the classroom, who looked delighted as if he was bound to win. But Marc didn’t care. When the exam began, Marc answered all the questions as best as he could. Several days later, the result came out. It turned out that Marc did much better than Huck. “Well done,” said Mom. “We could go to see a movie to celebrate, and you can choose one.” “I think Lily should choose,” said Marc. “I would never have gained such a great achievement without her help and encouragement .” 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
