Nobody Will Tell You This But Me Bess Kalb In this book, the author shares the advice her beloved grandmother Bobby left her. Bobby was a powerful woman who should never be underestimated (轻视), and she was very knowledgeable about the family’s traditions and secrets. The book proves that family bonds (关系) can endure through generations and beyond death. We Came Here to Shine Susie Orman Schnall We Came Here to Shine focuses on the strong woman friendship between an aspiring journalist and an unlucky actress at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Depending on each other, these two ambitious (雄心勃勃的) women struggled against difficult situations at a time when women had little say.

She saved him and after a bunch of attempts at taking him to wildlife centers and vets, Nikki was disappointed at the lack of help. However, her mother Linda had experience in raising raccoons and after a little persuasion, took the little creature in. They named him Little Hands and fell in love with the little raccoon. Linda and Nikki fed him, raised him, and eventually let him go. To their surprise, Little Hands kept coming back, sometimes after a few days, sometimes a few months. He would come back and ask for hugs, food, and just love. Little Hands was taken care of by Linda. At first, he was set free onto her large property and was allowed to come and go as he pleased. He was very fearful of any human or animal that he didn’t grow up with, but would come back to visit them most nights. Linda would leave food out for him every night and sit outside on the porch swing before bed, waiting for his visit. The first thing he would do was that he would climb over to Linda on the swing, sit beside her, and want pats from her. “Little Hands stayed with us for about two and a half months before he was fully released into the wild. He has always been a calm, peaceful raccoon, very loving and compassionate, even as he matured. But still wild enough he thrives on his own,” Nikki said. People asked Nikki what their reaction was when Little Hands returned to them. “Pure joy. And every time he came back it was a more and more joyous occasion especially because he wanted our attention as well as our food.” At last, Nikki said: “Be kind. We share the planet with so many creatures that need to be respected. They are capable of complex social systems and emotions.” 4. What is Nikki’s main reason for raising the raccoon? A. She was really fond of the raccoon. B. She was disappointed with her mother. C. She had experience in raising raccoons. D. She had difficulty finding proper help elsewhere. 5. Why would Little Hands return according to paragraph 2? A. Because he could get some food and love. B. Because he wanted to express his gratitude. C. Because he was afraid of living in the wild alone. D. Because he liked playing on the swing with Linda. 6. Which expression can best describe Nikki and her mother? A. Careful and curious. B. Kind and generous. C. Devoted and energetic. D. Warmhearted and caring. 7. What can we know from the last paragraph? A Humans must share what they have with animals. B. People should be in harmony with other creatures. C. Many creatures are good at socializing with people. D. Endangered animals need to be protected and respected. C There was once a boy called Mario who loved to have lots of friends at school. However, he wasn’t sure whether or not his classmates were his true friends, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need; it’s in the attic (阁楼). Wait here for a minute.” Grandpa left, soon returning as though carrying something in his hand, but Mario could see nothing there. “Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible (无形的) it’s rather difficult to sit on, but if you take it to school and you manage to sit on it, you’ll be able to tell who your true friends are.” Mario took the strange invisible chair and went to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. “Nobody move. You’re about to see something amazing,” Mario said. Then Mario tried sitting on the chair. He missed and fell straight onto his backside. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. Mario wouldn’t be beaten. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair, and kept falling to the ground... until, suddenly, he tried again and didn’t fall. This time he sat, hovering (悬停) in mid-air. Looking around, Mario saw George, Lucas, and Diana — three of his best friends — holding him up, so he wouldn’t fall. At the same time, many others he had thought of as friends were doing nothing but make fun of him, enjoying each and every fall. Leaving with his three friends, Mario explained to them how his grandpa had so cleverly thought of such a good idea. Now he knows that those who take joy in our misfortunes (不幸) when we are in difficulty are not our true friends. 8. What did Mario’s grandpa take from the attic? A. An invisible chair. B. An old chair. C. A real chair. D. Nothing. 9. Why did Mario’s grandpa give him the invisible chair? A. To see whether Mario could sit on it. B. To test who were Mario’s true friends. C. To let Mario have fun with his classmates. D. To test whether Mario was popular at school. 10. How was Mario able to hover in mid-air? A. He saw the invisible chair suddenly. B. He managed to sit on the chair finally. C. His friends held him up with their hands. D. His classmates gave him a chair to sit on. 11. What does the story tell us? A. Never laugh at our friends. B. True friends can help us do magic. C. True friends are those who care for us. D. Having too many good friends isn’t a good thing. D Children seem to care so much about their names. A study shows that most young people wish their parents had given them a different name. Some people choose to change their names when they grow up. Many people in show business don’t use the names their parents gave them. Have you ever listened to Joanne? No? The answer could be “yes” if we call her stage name instead! You may never heard of Margaret. But if we tell you her stage name, you might know her as a famous dancer. In many cultures, there are special ideas about how to choose a name. For example, many people choose a name that has been in their family for many years. It tells the child where he or she comes from. Choosing a good name isn’t easy. Many parents search books that tell them the meanings of names. They could choose a name that carries a message. For example, Edith means “valuable gift”. Amanda means “love”. And Fara means “joy”. Names like these tell family and friends how happy they are with their new baby. Other names can say something about the events during the birth of the child. In Africa, a first born son may have the name Mosi and the name Ama means “born on Saturday”. Is every boy called Curtis polite? And is every girl called Mahira quick and full of energy? No parents can tell what kind of person their child will grow up to be. Just because parents name a boy Fahim, it doesn’t mean he will be clever. All they can do is hope. 12. What can we know about the study? A. Young kids don’t care about their future. B. Most young people care about their names. C. Most girls want to change their names. D. Most parents want to rename by themselves. 13. Why is “Joanne” mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To prove some people hope to be renamed. B. To introduce a famous dancer to readers. C. To introduce her true name. D. To tell the benefit of name. 14. Why is it difficult to choose a good name? A. Kids always want to rename. B. Parents want to choose a meaningful name. C. Parents aren’t sure if their kids will like the name. D. It is hard to change kids’ names. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Names can never influence our lives B. Methods to choose a suitable name C. Love your parents love your name D. Your parents’ wish is behind names 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。 Learning a new language like English can be a challenge. ____16____. Here are some guidelines to help you improve your reading and comprehension skills and become a better English student. ____17____ Learning any new language is a time-consuming process, more than 300 hours by some estimates. Rather than try and cram (死记硬背) a few hours of review once or twice a week, most experts say short, regular study sessions are more effective. As little as 30 minutes a day can help you improve your English skills over time. Keep things fresh. Instead of focusing on one single task for the entire study session, try mixing things up. Study a little grammar, then do a short listening exercise, and then perhaps read an article on the same topic. Don’t do too much; 20 minutes on three different exercises is plenty. ____18____ Read, watch, and listen. Reading English-language newspapers and books, listening to music, or watching TV can also help you improve your written and verbal comprehension skills. By doing so repeatedly, you’ll begin to unconsciously do better in pronunciation, speech patterns, and grammar. Watch out for homophones (words that are pronounced the same way but are spelled differently and / or have different meanings). ____19____ That is one of the reasons why it can be so challenging to learn English. Consider this sentence: “Pack your clothes, and then close the suitcase.” Both “clothes” and “close” sound the same, but they are spelled differently and have different meanings. Repetition is the key as you are learning English, and writing exercises are a great way to practice. Take 30 minutes at the end of class or study to write down what happened during your day. ____20____ By making a habit of writing, you’ll find your reading and comprehension skills improve over time. A. Studying every day comes first. B. Find joy in studying English. C. But with regular study, it can be done. D. It is true that you’ve got a talent for writing. E. There are a number of homophones in the English language. F. It doesn’t matter whether you use a computer or pen and paper. G. The variety will keep you engaged and make studying more fun. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 During my first three years of college, I put on weight quickly.

It also teaches you about the value of money. When I was about sixteen years old, I wanted to buy albums of my favourite band, but I did not have any money. This was because the money my parents gave me was just enough to get by. I had to find a part-time job in order to purchase the music I wanted. Luckily, I found that there were many old people who needed help in my neighbourhood. And I chose the oldest person I knew, Mrs. Hudson, who was over eighty years old, and could not tend her garden anymore. She had flowers, a grass lawn, and some tomato plants. I knocked on her door, trying to build up enough courage to ask her for work. She answered that indeed she needed help in her garden. My first job was to pull out weeds. I got down on my knees and began to pull them out one by one in her front yard and backyard. Finishing this tiring and boring task, I mowed her lawn front and back. That was the first day of my job, and it took me about two hours. After that, I was paid ten dollars for my work. It was less than I thought, but at least I had earned my first money. After getting that ten dollars I intended to go to the supermarket to buy my favourite album. I chose a nice morning to do it because I knew it would be a memorable moment when I was able to buy what I liked through my efforts. But on the way to supermarket, I happened to see my mom “working” on the opposite side of the road. Actually, I had never seen how she worked before, I just knew she was a saleswoman. 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。 Under the burning sun, my mom was distributing leaflets (分发传单) to passers-by, sweating all over. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then I continued making my way to the supermarket, and suddenly a good idea occurred to me. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024年下学期高一期末考试试题 英语 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。录音内容结束后，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．What does the woman want to drink?

Yours sincerely, Li Hua 第二节：读后续写（满分25分） 【47题答案】 【答案】范文 Under the burning sun, my mom was distributing leaflets (分发传单) to passers-by, sweating all over. Once a man or woman passed by, my mom would give a piece of paper to him or her. Someone refused by slightly waving his hand and someone just ignored her without looking at her. Of course, there was someone who accepted the paper from my mom but would then throw it into a garbage can not far away. Seeing the scene, I couldn’t help but feel guilty. Tears welling up in my eyes, I murmured, “It’s so hard for mom to earn money.” Then I continued making my way to the supermarket, and suddenly a good idea occurred to me. I bought a portable electric fan for mom instead of an album for myself. After that, I returned to the place where my mom worked. She mistook me for a passer-by and gave me a piece of paper. I took it and gave her the electric fan. Surprised to find out it was me, she mildly scolded me for my wasting money. I told her I bought it with the money I earned. She accepted it with a big smile on her face. It was then that I came to understand the value of money. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
