Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely (可能的)to involve themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely ton succeed in school and develop higher self-worth, because their fathers go beyond social expectations to devote attention to them. Peer (同龄人) pressure has always been a big part of the teens’ experience. Even the best father can’t completely protect their kids from the growing influence of their peer group. However, studies show that teenagers whose fathers focus on their lives are more likely to resist (抵抗) the more bad effects of peer pressure, taking drugs, for example. Teens may not like to admit it, but they are watching their parents closely and often follow their example. An interesting finding explains just how important parents are, especially Dad. Swiss researchers discovered that if Dad attends church, even though Mom doesn’t, 44 percent of the kids are still more likely to keep going to church as adults. But if Mom goes regularly and Dad never shows up, only 2 percent of the kids continue to attend. Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices, especially in their later teens. Fathers don’t get to make those choices for them, but they can be influenced. For example, teenagers can learn a lot from their parents’ concern on what to do when they finish high school. Should they go directly to college and, if so, where? Should they consider going to trade schools, joining the army or looking for a job?A father’s guidance brings a long-term perspective that teens often lack to these important decisions. 4. Teenagers without fathers’ focus are more likely to________. A. have higher self-worth B. experience some dangerous things C. become the best students in school D. resist all bad effects of peer pressure 5. What does the third paragraph tell us? A. More teenagers pay no attention to their parents. B. Teenagers never attend church with their mothers. C. Teenagers often treat their fathers as role models. D. Fewer teenagers like to attend church wit h their fathers. 6. Which can replace the underlined word “perspective” in the last paragraph? A. lots of concern B. job C. school D. point of view 7. What can we learn from the text? A. Teenagers are greatly influenced by their fathers. B. Teenagers care less about what their parents do. C. Mothers have no effect on their children’s life. D. Fathers should make choices for teenagers directly. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【分析】本文为说明文，通过本文可知，随着周围世界的变化，青少年仍然需要来自父母双方的指导和支持，尤其是青少年时期受父亲的影响很大。 【4题详解】 B 推理判断题。根据第一段中Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely (可能的)to involve themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely ton succeed in school and develop higher self-worth,可知，没有父亲陪伴的青少年很可能遭遇危险的事情。故选B。 【5题详解】 C 段落大意题。根据第三段中An interesting finding explains just how important parents are, especially Dad.可知，青少年经常把父亲当做楷模。故选C。 【6题详解】 D 词义猜测题。根据最后一句A father’s guidance brings a long-term perspective that teens often lack to these important decisions.在这句话中perspective是先行词，后面是that引导的同位语从句，说明perspective的具体内容，“青少年经常缺少的这些重要的决定”，可知划线词的意思是“观点”，故选D。 【7题详解】 A 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一、二句Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices, especially in their later teens. Fathers don’t get to make those choices for them, but they can be influenced.可知，青少年受父亲的影响很大。故选A。 【点睛】 在做推理判断题时，要抓住文章的主题和细节，分析文章结构，根据上下文内在联系，挖掘文章的深层含义。在进行推理时，考生一定要仔细阅读短文，千万不可脱离原文而仅凭个人的看法，主观臆断。本题第1小题，推理判断题。根据第一段中Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely (可能的)to involve themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely ton succeed in school and develop higher self-worth,可知，没有父亲陪伴的青少年很可能遭遇危险的事情。故选B。 C People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions—and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why. Rachael Jack from University of Glasgow, said that rather than scanning evenly across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes. “We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, while Easterners favor the eyes and ignore the mouth.” According to Jack and his colleagues, the discovery shows that communication of human emotions is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used reliably to convey emotions in cross­cultural situations. The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the facial movements of 13 Western people and 13 Eastern people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, or angry. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies. It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our data suggests that while Westerners use the whole face to convey emotions, Easterners use the eyes more and the mouth less.” In short, the data shows that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotions. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotions. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation. 8. The discovery shows that Westerners ________. A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth B. consider facial expressions universally reliable C. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways D. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions 9. What were the 26 participants asked to do in the study? A. To make a face at each other. B. To get their faces impressive. C. To classify some face pictures. D. To observe the researchers’ faces. 10. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A. The participants in the study. B. The researchers of the study. C. The errors made in the study. D. The data collected from the study. 11. In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to ________. A. do translation more successfully B. study the mouth frequently C. examine the eyes more attentively D. read facial expressions more correctly 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要通过一个研究对比了东、西方人在区分面部表情方面的区别。西方人更习惯于用整张脸来传达情感，而东方人多用眼睛。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure,(西方人看眼睛和嘴的程度是一样的)”可知，研究表明西方人注意眼睛和嘴巴的程度几乎相等。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the facial movements of 13 Western people and 13 Eastern people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, or angry.(研究人员通过记录13名西方人和13名东方人的面部运动来研究面部表情识别的文化差异，他们观察了表情丰富的面部图片，并将它们分为:快乐、悲伤、惊讶、恐惧、厌恶和愤怒)”可知，在研究中，让参加研究的人将那些脸部表情分类。故选C项。 【10题详解】 词意猜测题。根据文章倒数第二段“It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did.(事实证明，东方人在眼睛上的注意力要比西方人多得多，犯的错误也明显更多)” 可知，后文的they应是代指前面的参加实验研究的easters和westers。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推断判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Our data suggest that while Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.(我们的数据显示，西方人用整张脸来传达情感，而东方人多用眼睛，少用嘴巴)”可知，东方人更关注眼睛。故选C项。 D Many people wrongly think that cities don’t have farms and fruits and vegetables are only grown in the country. Believe it or not, there are more urban farms popping up in cities all over the world. Alexandra Sullivan, a food systems researcher in New York, studies urban agriculture. Urban agriculture is another name for farming and gardening in a city environment. Ms. Sullivan studies everything from tiny gardens in empty lots between buildings to bigger fields that have been planted and grown. According to Ms. Sullivan, “Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.” The number of humans living in urban areas, or cities, is increasing. The amount of people who wanted to garden in urban areas is also rising. Ms. Sullivan says, “In small gardens, on rooftops and indoors, city residents grow fruits, vegetables, grains, and herbs, and raise animals to produce milk, eggs, honey, and meat. City residents use these foods as supplements to food produced by rural agriculture.” Even though some people who live in urban areas grow crops, urban residents still need to rely on food grown in rural areas. This is because a city doesn’t have enough space to grow enough food for everyone living in it. In New York City, urban farmers have come up with many different ways to grow their own produce, even though there isn’t a lot of room. For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City. All together, the farms are made up of 2.5 acres of rooftop space. This makes Brooklyn Grange one of the largest rooftop farming operations in the world. Brooklyn Grange grows all kinds of things. The farming company sells its vegetables to local residents and restaurants. And because the farms are on rooftops, they are specially adapted to their urban location. They use available space that is not needed for anything else. As more urban farmers find ways to grow food in cities, urban residents will be better able to get fresher materials for their meals. 12. Which of the following is Ms. Sullivan’s opinion about urban agriculture? A. Urban agriculture has developed recently. B. Urban agriculture takes too much city space. C. Urban agriculture has a history as long as cities. D. Urban agriculture can take the place of rural agriculture. 13. For traditional agriculture, urban agriculture is a(n) ________. A. model B. addition C. competitor D. replacement 14. What can we learn about Brooklyn Grange in New York City from the text? A. It has large farming areas. B. It can only grow single products. C. It produces enough food for citizens. D. It makes use of rooftop space to grow vegetables. 15. What is the author’s opinion on the urban farms? A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Worried. D. Confused. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文为说明文。这篇文章主要讲了城市农业的历史以及它的种植方式和意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to Ms. Sullivan, “Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.”（据沙利文女士说，“自从世界各地的城市出现以来，城市农业就一直存在。”）可知Ms. Sullivan认为城市农业和城市有着同样长的历史。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段中“City residents use these foods as supplements to food produced by rural agriculture.”（城市居民将这些食物作为农村农业生产的食物的补充。）可知对于传统农业来说，城市农业是一个补充。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City.”（例如，布鲁克林农庄(Brooklyn Grange)是一家在纽约市拥有两个屋顶蔬菜农场的农场。）可知，Brooklyn Grange充分利用屋顶的空间来种植蔬菜。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As more urban farmers find ways to grow food in cities, urban residents will be better able to get fresher materials for their meals.”（随着越来越多的城市农民找到在城市种植食物的方法，城市居民将能够更好地获得更新鲜的食物材料。）故可推知，作者对城市农业持肯定态度。故选B项。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many students have to live with roommates when going to school or university.

They lack the love of their parents and need the love and help of others. So I am doing what I can to help them. I visited them many times to experience their daily life. Three years ago I even lived with the orphans on the street. These kids would mostly beg through the day to buy some food for themselves or eat the food given to them by the people passing by. One unusual incident happened during my second week of staying with them on the sidewalk. I sat with them and shared the meal I had bought for them from a nearby restaurant. They sat with me in a circle and happily started eating. Suddenly one of them, a twelve-year-old boy, caught my hand, looked at me and removed my watch, and I continued eating the meal without turning around to see where the little boy ran with my watch. After about forty-five minutes he showed up and sat beside me again. I just looked at him and smiled without saying anything about the watch. The little boy took a small packet from his pocket, opened it, had a bite of the bread and offered the same bread to me. I took it and ate it willingly. As soon as I finished eating the bread, a smile appeared on his face. Slowly he put his hand in his pocket and returned my watch. I smiled at him and wore my watch once again. The little boy later on told me that I passed the test. Paragraph 1: I was a little surprised and asked him what test I passed. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then I asked him why he gave me food to eat. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1. I was a little surprised and asked him what test I passed. He told me that he took the watch and ran away to see my reaction and for that good forty-five minutes he was hiding in a building and watching my expressions. He said that I simply kept quiet. There was no sign of anger or disappointment on my face. Nor did I start to catch up with him angrily. He said that meant I was generous and regarded him as one of my family members. Paragraph 2. Then I asked him why he gave me food to eat. He told me that when I gave them something to eat, they ate happily so he wanted to see whether I was happy to eat what he gave me. I happily ate the food he gave me in his presence. He was greatly moved and felt that I did not mind his dirt. I am one of them. I realized these kids are hungry for love and trust. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者多年来一直同情关爱孤儿，经常尽自己所能帮助他们，并和他们一起体验生活。一次作者给孤儿们买了一些吃的和他们共享，一个男孩摘走了作者的手表，作者并没有生气和着急，继续和孩子们共享食物。45分钟后，男孩回来了，作者没有追问男孩手表的事，男孩把手表还给作者，还分给作者面包吃。男孩还告诉作者通过了他的测试。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我有点吃惊，问他我通过了什么考试。”可知，第一段可描写男孩指的是什么测试，怎样测试。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后我问他为什么给我食物吃。”可知，第二段可描写男孩的理由和作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：用手表测试——观察作者表情——发现作者把他当作家人——用食物测试——男孩被感动——通过测试——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①观察表情：watch expressions /observe expressions ②追赶：catch up with /run after ③意识到：realize/be aware of/ aware 情绪类 ①高兴：be happy/be cheerful/delight ②渴望：long for/be eager to/desire to do 【点睛】[高分句型1] Nor did I start to catch up with him angrily.（否定词Nor开头的倒装句） [高分句型2] He told me that when I gave them something to eat, they ate happily so he wanted to see whether I was happy to eat what he gave me. （that，whether，what引导宾语从句） [高分句型3]I happily ate the food he gave me in his presence.（he gave me是定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 定安中学2023级高二年级第一学期期末考试 英语学科测试题 （考试时间120分钟，满分150分） 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.

Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely (可能的)to involve themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely ton succeed in school and develop higher self-worth, because their fathers go beyond social expectations to devote attention to them. Peer (同龄人) pressure has always been a big part of the teens’ experience. Even the best father can’t completely protect their kids from the growing influence of their peer group. However studies show that teenagers whose fathers focus on their lives are more likely to resist (抵抗) the more bad effects of peer pressure, taking drugs, for example. Teens may not like to admit it, but they are watching their parents closely and often follow their example. An interesting finding explains just how important parents are, especially Dad. Swiss researchers discovered that if Dad attends church, even though Mom doesn’t, 44 percent of the kids are still more likely to keep going to church as adults. But if Mom goes regularly and Dad never shows up, only 2 percent of the kids continue to attend. Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices, especially in their later teens. Fathers don’t get to make those choices for them, but they can be influenced. For example, teenagers can learn a lot from their parents’ concern on what to do when they finish high school. Should they go directly to college and, if so, where? Should they consider going to trade schools, joining the army or looking for a job?A father’s guidance brings a long-term perspective that teens often lack to these important decisions. 4. Teenagers without fathers’ focus are more likely to________. A. have higher self-worth B. experience some dangerous things C. become the best students in school D. resist all bad effects of peer pressure 5. What does the third paragraph tell us? A. More teenagers pay no attention to their parents. B. Teenagers never attend church with their mothers. C. Teenagers often treat their fathers as role models. D. Fewer teenagers like to attend church wit h their fathers. 6. Which can replace the underlined word “perspective” in the last paragraph? A. lots of concern B. job C. school D. point of view 7. What can we learn from the text? A. Teenagers are greatly influenced by their fathers. B. Teenagers care less about what their parents do. C. Mothers have no effect on their children’s life. D. Fathers should make choices for teenagers directly. C People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions—and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why. Rachael Jack from University of Glasgow, said that rather than scanning evenly across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes. “We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, while Easterners favor the eyes and ignore the mouth.” According to Jack and his colleagues, the discovery shows that communication of human emotions is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used reliably to convey emotions in cross­cultural situations. The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the facial movements of 13 Western people and 13 Eastern people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, or angry. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies. It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our data suggests that while Westerners use the whole face to convey emotions, Easterners use the eyes more and the mouth less.” In short, the data shows that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotions. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotions. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation. 8. The discovery shows that Westerners ________. A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth B. consider facial expressions universally reliable C. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways D. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions 9. What were the 26 participants asked to do in the study? A. To make a face at each other. B. To get their faces impressive. C. To classify some face pictures. D To observe the researchers’ faces. 10. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A. The participants in the study. B. The researchers of the study. C. The errors made in the study. D. The data collected from the study. 11. In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to ________. A. do translation more successfully B. study the mouth frequently C. examine the eyes more attentively D. read facial expressions more correctly D Many people wrongly think that cities don’t have farms and fruits and vegetables are only grown in the country. Believe it or not, there are more urban farms popping up in cities all over the world. Alexandra Sullivan, a food systems researcher in New York, studies urban agriculture. Urban agriculture is another name for farming and gardening in a city environment. Ms. Sullivan studies everything from tiny gardens in empty lots between buildings to bigger fields that have been planted and grown. According to Ms. Sullivan, “Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.” The number of humans living in urban areas, or cities, is increasing. The amount of people who wanted to garden in urban areas is also rising. Ms. Sullivan says, “In small gardens, on rooftops and indoors, city residents grow fruits, vegetables, grains, and herbs, and raise animals to produce milk, eggs, honey, and meat. City residents use these foods as supplements to food produced by rural agriculture.” Even though some people who live in urban areas grow crops, urban residents still need to rely on food grown in rural areas. This is because a city doesn’t have enough space to grow enough food for everyone living in it. In New York City, urban farmers have come up with many different ways to grow their own produce, even though there isn’t a lot of room. For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City. All together, the farms are made up of 2.5 acres of rooftop space. This makes Brooklyn Grange one of the largest rooftop farming operations in the world. Brooklyn Grange grows all kinds of things. The farming company sells its vegetables to local residents and restaurants. And because the farms are on rooftops, they are specially adapted to their urban location. They use available space that is not needed for anything else. As more urban farmers find ways to grow food in cities, urban residents will be better able to get fresher materials for their meals. 12. Which of the following is Ms. Sullivan’s opinion about urban agriculture? A. Urban agriculture has developed recently. B. Urban agriculture takes too much city space. C. Urban agriculture has a history as long as cities. D. Urban agriculture can take the place of rural agriculture. 13. For traditional agriculture, urban agriculture is a(n) ________. A. model B. addition C. competitor D. replacement 14. What can we learn about Brooklyn Grange in New York City from the text? A. It has large farming areas. B It can only grow single products. C. It produces enough food for citizens. D. It makes use of rooftop space to grow vegetables. 15. What is the author’s opinion on the urban farms? A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Worried. D. Confused. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many students have to live with roommates when going to school or university.

They lack the love of their parents and need the love and help of others. So I am doing what I can to help them. I visited them many times to experience their daily life. Three years ago I even lived with the orphans on the street. These kids would mostly beg through the day to buy some food for themselves or eat the food given to them by the people passing by. One unusual incident happened during my second week of staying with them on the sidewalk. I sat with them and shared the meal I had bought for them from a nearby restaurant. They sat with me in a circle and happily started eating. Suddenly one of them, a twelve-year-old boy, caught my hand, looked at me and removed my watch, and I continued eating the meal without turning around to see where the little boy ran with my watch. After about forty-five minutes he showed up and sat beside me again. I just looked at him and smiled without saying anything about the watch. The little boy took a small packet from his pocket, opened it, had a bite of the bread and offered the same bread to me. I took it and ate it willingly. As soon as I finished eating the bread, a smile appeared on his face. Slowly he put his hand in his pocket and returned my watch. I smiled at him and wore my watch once again. The little boy later on told me that I passed the test. Paragraph 1: I was a little surprised and asked him what test I passed. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then I asked him why he gave me food to eat. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
