Knowing that our own bodies may be wired to prefer a certain time of day is certainly a relief. But many of us still have to wake up and function during those first daylight hours. So what can you do? We tapped a variety of experts - from sleep experts to nutritionists to life organizational pros (生活管理达人) — to share their tricks on how to make morning less stressful and more pleasant for even the most after-hours of night owls. 1. Night waking Poor sleep quality can explain why we sometimes wake up from eight hours of snoozing and feel like we only clocked in at four. “It’s normal to have one or two awakenings, but more than that leaves us feeling groggy (昏昏沉沉) in the morning because of the fragmented sleep,” explains Shelby Harris, director of the behavioral sleep medicine program at Montefiore Medical Center. 2. The Science of snoozing The snooze button does more harm than good. Nodding off again sends you into a light and fragmented sleep! Multiple snoozes can leave you feeling groggier than just getting out of bed the first time. Instead, be honest about the time you intend to get up and then enjoy every last minute of sleep, so you can wake up alert and ready to go. 3. Don’t ease into your workday It can be tempting to plow through the easy things early on—checking e-mail, scanning the headlines—but it’s wise to tackle the bigger stuff first. “Getting to work on the most important tasks not only ups the chances that they actually get done, but it also leaves you with a burst of accomplishment to take with you the rest of the day,” says Jason Selk, coauthor of Organize Tomorrow Today. 4. Save social media for later Schedule a social media block later in the afternoon to check in when you’re likely to need a break anyway, and save the morning for the important stuff. 21．What’s the purpose of the passage? A．To help us to get the most out of our mornings. B．To relieve us from the guilt of multiple snoozes in the morning. C．To warn us of the harm of not getting out of bed immediately. D．To inform us about the fact that our bodies are wired to prefer a certain time of day. 22．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．One or two awakenings ensure us a good night’s sleep. B．To be an early bird, better forget about the snooze button. C．It’s important not to block social medium if you want to save your morning. D．Beginning a day with easy things aroused our interest and a sense of accomplishment. 23．Where can we find the passage? A．Classified Advertisement B．Travel Brochure C．Life and Study D．Scientific Journal B Before I came to the United States years ago, I had thought that culture separated people, but I have realized now that cultures are closer than we know. In the United States, there are certainly more differences than similarities when comparing it to my country. An amazing aspect of culture is the food produced. I’ve always been a foodie (美食家). When I was hungry, there were many foreign signs of restaurants, but deciding which one was a difficult task. I remember reading the sign for “Chipotle” and I had no idea what was served there. Who would ever have imagined that an experience as simple as trying new food would produce thoughts of cultures? I find it truly beautiful that each culture brings different spices and tastes to the table. I have tried wonderful foods from all sorts of cultures. Each is very unique and atmospheres are also quite interesting and culturally affected. Although the food may taste different, preparation can be somewhat consistent (一致的). Many of the foods I have tasted have had similar mechanisms of cooking (烹饪机制). Here in the United States, it can be somewhat difficult to express all of my culture, mainly because there are many different cultures here. But I have found common ground on these matters and have learned to adapt (适应)to different cultures. I have learned how to live in two cultures. I’m not saying it’s easy, I’m not saying that it’s extremely hard, but it’s all about balance. Each person has their own culture. Life has too many things to care. The theory of “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” is very applicable in most situations. Throughout my experiences here, I have certainly learned a lot about others. Culture is something different to many people but in the end, it connects all of us. Cultures bring others together to create new and exciting situations. 24．What does the author learn about culture after coming to the United States? A．Culture separates people. B．Culture is from local food. C．Culture is closer than he knows. D．Food is the culture that unites people. 25．What made the author confused about American food? A．The choice of proper food. B．The ways of serving food. C．The different tastes of food. D．The methods of food production. 26．What does the author find beautiful about different cultures? A．Each culture has unique atmosphere. B．Preparation methods of food are similar across cultures. C．All foods from different cultures taste the same. D．Each culture brings different tastes to the table. 27．How does the author feel about living in two cultures? A．Difficult. B．Beneficial. C．Awkward. D．Unpleasant C Think about the last time you did something that you found difficult. Was it working out a puzzle or working hard on your math homework? Can you remember the expression you had on your face? Most people will press their lips together and frown (皱眉) when they are doing something they find difficult. This is normally seen as a sign of effort. Now we’ve found that it can also say more than that. A recent study at the University of Portsmouth in England suggests that the human expression of effort and frustration is our way of asking others for help. Scientists at the university gave children and chimpanzees (黑猩猩) an impossible puzzle to work out. When the children couldn’t work out the puzzle, their faces expressed determination and effort. The chimpanzees’ did not. Humans and chimpanzees have many facial expressions that share the same meaning. A human smile is the same as a chimpanzee showing its teeth in happiness. Scientists believe that over time, humans have evolved to use this facial expression to ask for help. We have also learned to respond to it by offering help. According to Dr. Albert Mehrabian, a well-known professor of psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles, only 7% of human communication happens through words and 55% is through body language. Therefore, understanding expressions is second nature to human beings. With this in mind, next time you see a person with a frustrated expression, listen to your heart and stop to lend them a hand. 28．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Frowning. B．The expression. C．Something difficult. D．A sign of effort. 29．According to the recent study, people’s expression of effort or frustration tells others that ________. A．they need help B．they can do things themselves C．they will give up D．they want to be alone 30．What can we learn from the study? A．Scientists gave the chimpanzees an easy puzzle. B．The chimpanzees smiled as they worked out the puzzle. C．The chimpanzees’ face didn’t show determination or effort. D．The chimpanzees used other expressions to ask for help. 31．Which of the following may Dr. Albert Mehrabian agree with? A．Body language is very important in human communication. B．People don’t like to use words to communicate. C．Human expressions are not a kind of body language. D．Words can’t help much in communication. D Online English has become a common language for users from around the world. In the process, the language itself is changing. There are now thought to be some 4.5 billion web pages worldwide. Some language experts predict that within 10 years English will occupy the internet — but in forms very different to what we accept and recognize as English today. That’s because people who speak English as a second language already outnumber native speakers. And increasingly, they use it to communicate with other non-native speakers, particularly on the Internet where less attention is paid to grammar and spelling and users don’t have to worry about their accent (口音). Users of Facebook already socialize in a number of different “Englishes” including Indian English, Spanish English and Korean English. While these different styles have long existed within their cultures, they’ re now expanding and coming online. Technology companies are introducing newly-developed English words with products aimed at enabling users to add words that are not already in the English dictionary. And most large companies have English websites, while smaller businesses are learning that they need a common language — English — to reach global customers. The increasing popularity of the internet allows more languages to develop quickly. “Most people actually speak several languages — it’s less common to only speak one,” says Mr. Munro. “English has taken its place as the world’s common language, but it’s not pushing out other languages.” Instead, other languages are pushing their way into English, and in the process creating something new. 32．What does the text mainly talk about? A．There are now many different language styles. B．English is a common language around the world. C．English language is developing with the Internet. D．Smaller businesses are learning a common language. 33．Which of the following is NOT true about online communication? A．Grammar is not so important. B．People need to spell accurately. C．People do not care about their accent. D．Most English-speakers are not native speakers. 34．What can we infer from the text? A．We can only communicate online in English. B．Smaller businesses are not allowed to have English websites. C．It’s impossible to find all the English words in the dictionary. D．Some technology companies start to publish English dictionaries. 35．What can we learn from what Mr. Munro said? A．Other languages are enriching English. B．Chinese used to be the world’s common language. C．English will become the only language in the world. D．One can’t live well without speaking several languages. 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。 How to Survive Senior High School Life Anxious about Senior High School (SHS) life? 36 .

His teacher, Ms. Shelly, always believed in him, often saying, “Max, your words can inspire change. You should share your voice.” Even though Ms. Shelly encouraged him, the thought of speaking in front of an audience still made him scared. As the contest day neared, Max concentrated on writing a speech about perseverance (毅力). He practiced every day in front of a mirror, each practice building up his confidence yet increasing his anxiety. What if he forgot his lines? What if he stumbled? These worries troubled him. On the morning of the contest, the school lecture hall was noisy. Max arrived early, watching his classmates speak confidently. While waiting backstage, the sound of applause (掌声) made his stomach tighten. “You can do this,” he whispered to himself, but he was starting to doubt himself. 续写要求： 1. 续写词数应为80左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When it was his turn, Ms. Shelly called, “Max, you’re up!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 答案第1页，共2页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 C B B A A B C C A B 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 C A C A B A A B C B 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 A B C C A D B B A C 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 A C B C A E G B F D 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 A B D C A C B D A D 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 B C B D A 2024-2025学年高一上半期期末考试英语答案 56．which/that 57．thinking 58．annoyed 59．behaviour/behavior 60．had 61．challenges 62．actually 63．by 64．the 65．to see 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文，讲述了作者在购买午餐时与一位流浪汉愉快的交谈经历。 56．考查定语从句。句意：我正走进一个我非常喜欢的午餐店，这时一个流浪汉问我要不要给他买个三明治。空处引导限制性定语从句，先行词为a lunch spot，作从句like的宾语，表示物，用关系代词which/that引导从句。故填which/that。 57．考查非谓语动词。句意：柜台后面的女人奇怪地看着他，也许觉得他不应该在那里。空处与前句没有连词连接，为非谓语动词作状语，逻辑主语the woman与think构成逻辑上的主动关系，用现在分词thinking。故填thinking。 58．考查形容词。句意：那个女人的行为让我很生气，我走过去坐下来和他说话，这样她就知道他是一位付钱的顾客。空处作表语，表示人物感受，用annoy对应的形容词annoyed“感到生气的”。故填annoyed。 59．考查名词。句意同上。空处作介词的宾语，用behave对应的名词behaviour/behavior，且此处表示单数概念，故填behaviour/behavior。 60．考查动词时态。句意：我们就他面临的一些挑战以及世界上正在发生的所有疯狂的事情进行了愉快的交谈。空处作谓语，结合全文时态可知，此处用一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填had。 61．考查名词的数。句意同上。one of后用名词复数形式。故填challenges。 62．考查副词。句意：他实际上是一个来自弗拉格斯塔夫的印第安人，大约两小时车程的地方。空处作状语，修饰谓语，用副词。故填actually。 63．考查介词。句意同上。此处表示“乘某种交通工具”用介词by+交通工具。故填by。 64．考查冠词。句意：他很兴奋，告诉我餐厅里面很凉快。此处restaurant为特指他们就餐的那家餐厅，用定冠词。故填the。 65．考查非谓语动词。句意：很高兴看到他打开三明治和苏打水时的微笑。It为形式主语，空处为真正主语，构成It+be+adj.+to do结构。故填to see。 66．Dear David, I’m sorry to hear that you’re finding learning Chinese challenging.
