Whatever your taste, there’s a food festival to match—no matter how specialized. Meatopia This three-day, London-based festival takes place at the end of August and is a meat lover’s paradise. In addition to a range of legally sourced meat products, from juicy burgers to tender steaks, attendees can listen to live music, watch butchery demonstrations, and attend informal meat-based workshops. The National Honey Show If you have a sweet tooth, then it could be that the National Honey Show, which started in 1921 and is the largest event of its kind, is the place for you to be. This three-day event attracts many local entries who showcase their sweet golden honey, some of which is sold globally. The Orange Sauce Festival Have you heard about a festival that is devoted only to orange sauce? Held in Cumbria, this sweet, fragrant festival has been running for 3 years. What attracts people most is a competition to find the best homemade orange sauce. There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe, bringing their local snacks to share here. The Ginger and Spice Festival If you’d prefer something with a little more kick to it, then you could attend The Ginger and Spice Festival held in Market Drayton. Unlike other food festivals, it celebrates its town’s historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from India with ginger. Because of this, they specialize in baking gingerbread, but also sell a range of traditional spices from mild to hot. 21.What do Meatopia and the National Honey Show have in common? A. They are of the same duration. B. Both of them hold workshops. C. Both of them have a long history. D. Both of them originated from London. 22. Which festival is most attractive to a competition lover? A. The Meatopia. B. The National Honey Show. C. The Orange Sauce Festival. D. The Ginger and Spice Festival. 23. What is the text probably taken from? A. A business report. B. A history textbook. C. A travel guidebook. D. A food advertisement. B In today’s world, it can feel difficult to concentrate when your smartphone buzzes (嗡嗡响) every minute or two with reminders about updates, messages and much more. How can anyone get through a 500-page book when our brain is addicted to bite-sized content? Gloria Mark, professor at the University of California, has spent much of her career analysing how this affects us. She has used sensors to track attention duration on screens. When the studies started, in 2004, screen attention duration was about two-and-a-half minutes, but recently, has dropped to 47 seconds. According to Prof Mark, there were “a lot of things” that had made people more distracted. “When you switch your attention duration so rapidly, there are more errors. It takes longer to do any task and people get more stressed.” Aside from making us perform tasks less effectively, the ease with which we get distracted by one thing or another on the internet also means that we can waste time that could be spent on activities considered more worthwhile. People who have attention disorder tend to have less grey matter in brain’s parietal cortex(顶叶皮层), highlighted Nilli Lavie, professor of psychology and brain sciences at University College London. “We see greater grey matter volume in certain regions of the brain for people with a better attentional capacity,” Prof Lavie said. The good news is that while research has indicated that in today’s world we switch our attention more often than in the past, this change is not thought to have become hard-wired in our brains. “The solution is simple: first, decide to focus, then use strategies to remove distractions,” Prof Lavie said. Related to this, one strategy is to set an alarm that will go off after, for example, 20 minutes. And Prof Mark advises people to look ahead to the end of the day and to consider how they might spend time then, such as relaxing on the sofa after completing their work. “I want to feel accomplished because I’ve done my work,” she said. “That can help people stay on track.” 24.What is the main problem described in paragraph 1? A. People find it a struggle to focus. B. Bite-sized contents are addictive. C. Long passages are outdated. D. Smartphones often disturb people. 25.What can we know about the online distractions? A. They cause permanent changes to human brain. B. They have similar influences on different people. C. They increase the possibility for people to make errors. D. They offer people convenience to deal with various affairs. 26.What does Prof. Mark advise in the last paragraph? A. Set frequent alarms to take short breaks. B. Create a flexible timetable to work efficiently. C. Visualize after-work leisure time to keep daily focus. D. Seek a relaxing environment to minimize distractions. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Save Your Brain to Stay Relaxed. B. Can We Reclaim Our Lost Focus? C. Why Are We Losing Concentration? D. Bite-sized Reading Ruined Our Brain. C If a stranger knocked on your door asking for using your phone, would you help? How about lending them five dollars for the bus, if they said they’d return and pay you back? Nowadays, many people find it hard to trust strangers. A recent study found that our ability to trust strangers may be more than just a social or psychological characteristic—it could be rooted in our DNA. This is important, as it turns out that trusting people might actually live longer and healthier lives compared to more skeptical(怀疑的) people. Two main theories have appeared to explain why some people are more trusting than others. One suggest trust is a stable characteristic shaped by early life experiences. The other thinks it’s influenced by a person’s ongoing evaluation of the social environment. We can easily imagine that the answer to the question “Would you say that most people can be trusted?” would depend on whether you’d been robbed the day before or if you’ had your missing wallet returned. This is where the recent research comes in. A professor of Lund University, Edgerton and his coworkers have been doing research about trust. In their most recent study, involving 33,882 Danish blood donors, they found a single gene(基因)—PLPP4, strongly associated with the personality of trusting others, and that the PLPP4 gene explained 6% of the difference in social trust within the study population. If you take two people who have similar education and life experiences, this gene alone could account for 6% of the difference in how much they trust others. They believe that the PLPP4 gene may somehow soften our “fight-or-flight” survival response. If our fight-or-flight system is less strong when we meet new people, it makes sense that trusting others could have huge health benefits. Indeed, if trusting others acts as something against stress, it may lower the risk of cardiovascular (心血管的) disease. As people continue to uncover the mysteries of trust, one thing is clear: understanding its genetic roots may hold the key to developing healthier communities in the world. 28.What might affect people’s trust levels according to the two main theories? A. Childhood habits. B. Personal abilities. C. Social experiences. D. Communication skills. 29.What does the recent study focus on? A. The mental cause of trust. B. The ways to develop survival ability. C. The characteristics of different genes. D. The connection between trust and a gene. 30.What does the passage say about trusting others? A. It could bring health benefits. B. It reduces the strong stress in work. C. It helps to develop the world faster. D. It causes quicker survival response. 31.What can be inferred from the passage? A. The ability to trust others relates to a single gene. B. How trusting you are frees people from disease. C. Your understanding of gene accounts for developed communities. D. The PLPP4 gene lays the foundation of survival response. D Many people are told that certain activities are out of the question for them but a new invention proves that where there is a will, there is a way. Dr. Zacharias Vamvakousis has come up with a creative way to improve the quality of life for countless people through the power of music. His invention is called EyeHarp, which enables individuals to make music using their gaze(注视) instead of their hands. “EyeHarp is the first musical application that allows people with disabilities to play music with eyes or head movements,” Zacharias explains. “Using an eye tracker, you can make melodies by looking at the notes on the screen.” EyeHarp uses the same type of digital eye-tracking technology used in some computer games. But instead of using it to aim weapons at digital opponents, EyeHarp uses it to track your eyes as they stay on different musical notes on a colorful circle on your computer screen. The application allows you to play three to four notes every second. However, users have to be careful not to move their eyes too quickly from one musical note to the next. So, much like any other instrument, playing a tune takes practice and concentration. Zacharias was inspired to create the magical application after a musician friend was badly hurt in a motorcycle accident. His friend was worried he’d never be able to play his guitar again, so Zacharias decided to find a new way to make music available to him. While his friend didn’t end up needing EyeHarp, Zacharias was on a mission to help others who thought music was forever lost to them. These are people who are so disabled that they don’t have the opportunity to do many things and learning music through EyeHarp gives them happiness, the purpose and the opportunity to play music. Zacharias agreed, saying that music builds social connections and raises self-esteem. He’s currently training music teachers to use EyeHarp so they can reach even more people with disabilities. This invention has the potential for changing so many lives. Hundreds of people with disabilities have used EyeHarp. “There wasn’t any instrument they could play. But now, they’re able to make their own music,” says Zacharias. “I hope it will light up the lives of more people like them.” 32.What is EyeHarp? A. A musical instrument played with disabled minds. B. A device that helps people play music with their eyes. C. A musical game using eye-tracking technology. D. A medical tool for improving ones’ eyesight. 33. For what reason did Zacharias create the appliance? A. His love for music and technology. B. A need for a new form of musical therapy. C. A desire to help his musician friend. D. A sympathy towards people with disabilities. 34. How does EyeHarp work according to the passage? A. By tracking the movement of players’ hands. B. By detecting the sound of a music note. C. By following the stay of the gaze on the screen. D. By recognizing the face of a disabled user. 35. What can we infer about EyeHarp from the passage? A. It is very difficult to play. B. It can be used by anyone easily. C. It has limited musical notes. D. It brings hope to many disabled people. 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Getting older means greater maturity and wisdom. 36 In a society that is aging fast, it has become crucial to find ways to prevent related mental and emotional disorders. Music emerges as a promising tool for promoting well-being of the elderly. Music has a great power to cause strong emotions and intense pleasure. 37 Singing and dancing to music with others is not only fun but also improves mood. Musical activities are great ways to reduce stress because they take our minds off problems. They also help us feel less lonely and more connected with other people. 38 A song may become a soundtrack for a particular time, such as a delightful party with friends that you had a long time ago. Listening to that song allows you to remember all the happy memories from that time. Finally, music contributes to keeping our thinking skills sharp. It makes our brains work hard in unique ways to understand the rhythm and melody. 39 For example, exposure to background music, particularly classical music, during cognitive (认知的)tasks is shown to improve older people’s cognitive processes, such as processing speed and working memory. In conclusion, music is a powerful tool to fight against aging-related emotional and cognitive problems. It is an enjoyable and social activity, available to anyone regardless of their background or previous musical experience. 40 A. Music can also open forgotten doors to our memories. B. Recalling happy memories can lift our mood on a bad day. C. Even passive music listening can help elderly adults think better. D. This helps people feel better when they are depressed or anxious. E. However, it often involves a series of physical and mental challenges. F. The ability to form new memories is essential for processing information. G. Thus, this accessible intervention should become a major policy priority for healthy aging. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节， 满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15 小题；每小题1分，满分15分） Going out for a walk with their sons is a simple task for most fathers.

I was often the only African American at the swimming competitions and our team couldn’t afford good uniforms. However, my number-one reason for wanting to quit was that I kept receiving “Honorable mentions” (安慰奖). Any athlete knows that you don’t want to have a bookshelf full of “Honorable Mentions”, which you get just because you showed up. One summer day, the day before a big swim meet, I decided to break the news to my grandma that I was quitting the swim team. When I told her, she looked me in the eye and said, “Baby, remember these words: ‘Quitters never win and winners never quit.’ Your grandmother didn’t raise losers or quitters. You go to that swim meet tomorrow, and you swim like you are a grandchild of mine, you hear?” I was too afraid to say anything but “Yes, ma’am.” The next day we arrived at the swim meet late, missing my group of swimmers in the 15/16 age group. My coach insisted that I be allowed to swim with the older group. I knew that she was including me in the race so that our journey to the meet would not be wasted, and she had no expectations whatsoever that I would come in anything but eighth place and only that, because there weren’t nine lanes. As I was mounting the board, all the other girls looked at me. I quickly noticed that these girls were here to do one thing—beat me! All of a sudden, my grandma’s words rang in my head. “Quitters never win and winners never quit. You swim like you are a grandchild of mine. Quitters never win and winners never quit.” “Yes, Grandma, I will swim like I am a grandchild of yours,” I said to myself. 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。 SPLASH!I swam harder than I’d ever swum before. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ It was then that I heard the claps and cheers around me. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 高一英语期中考试参考答案 1-5 CBABB 6-10 BCBAA 11-15 BBACC 16-20 CAACA 21-23 ACC 24-27 ACCB 28-31 CDAA 32-35 BCCD 36-40 EDACG 41-55 BCADB ACDCB ADDAB 56. divided 57. representing 58. who/that 59. in 60. winners 61.the 62.has been 63.to show 64.development 65.especially 66.

Yours’Li Hua 67. 【答案】One Possible Version:SPLASH! I swam harder than I’d ever swum before. As I drew my right arm back, I noticed I was tied with one person. I assumed we were battling for eighth place and I refused to finish dead last, so I added more kick on the last 200 yards. I hit the wall and looked to the left and to the right for the swimmers who had beat me, but no one was there. They must have gotten out of the water already.It was then that I heard the claps and cheers around me. I raised my head to see my coach screaming hysterically. My eyes followed her pointing finger and I couldn’t believe what I saw. The other swimmers had just reached the halfway point of the pool! That day, at age 15, I broke the national 17/18-year-old 400-freestyle record. I hung up my honorable mentions and replaced them with a huge trophy. “Yes, grandma, you’re right.
