2016学年第二学期第一次月考高一年级英语试卷满分100分 考试时间90分钟 一 阅读理解（每小题2分，共20分）AI found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didnt understand. So I leaned over her and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra pen, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your two feet and responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things. Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girls test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadnt talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the class. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test. 1.

A. she had not brought a pen with herB. she had lost her own pen on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her own penD. her own pen had been taken away by someone2.

Do you know anything about it? If not, I think you had better go to visit it and enjoy its beauty scenery if you are free some day.Many years ago, a huge dam, which lies between the states of Arizona and Nevada, was built to control the Colorado River. This dam was built so that it could protect the land and houses along the river from being washed away. This huge dam is in the Black Canyon. It is possible to drive a car from one side of the river to the other on a road which is on top of the dam. The dam is so huge that there is a lift inside, which goes down forty-four floors from the road to the bottom. There is enough concrete（混凝土） used in the dam to build a highway from New York to San Francisco. It took thousands of people five years to build the dam. This dam was called Boulder Dam when it was completed in 1936. Later it was renamed Hoover Dam in honor of a president of the United States. Hoover Dam, one of the highest dams in the world, has been playing an important part in many ways. It attracts many visitors coming from all over the world. 4. What do we know about the dam? _A. The dam is completely made of concrete. B. The dam is the highest dam in the world. C. The dam is called Boulder Dam now. D. Visitors can go from the bottom of the dam to the top by lift. 5. The purpose of the text is to _. A. give a brief introduction to the dam B. make an advertisement for the damC. call on tourists to raise money for the dam D. help protect the dam as much as possible 6. This text is probably taken from a _. A. science report B. magazine on constructionC. business diaryD. science fictionC How you move and gesture says as much about you as what comes out of your mouth. Jenny Smith, 34, an assistant vice-president at a bank in New York, was interviewing candidates（应考人） for a position which required a person with good communication skills. One candidate in particular stood out, but not in a good way. While she could have been very intelligent, her body language sent out very different messages. Her handshake was more of a finger shake, and her eye contact was weak. To Jenny, what the candidate said didnt matter because her body language said everything: she wasnt suitable for the position. The candidate may have been quite appropriate（合适的）, but didnt manage to get that across. So our body language may not do us justice. But there are some signals which are very common and are worth a thousand words. For example, a handshake can say more than “hello, nice to meet you”. The most important part of a handshake is palm-to-palm contact. Its even more important than how strong your handshake is. The palm-to-palm handshake makes people seem honest: it seems to say “I am sincere（真诚的）”. A weak handshake when the palms dont touch makes you seem unfriendly, insincere. But people sometimes use body language to give each other the wrong impression. Somebody who has a firm handshake may be pretending to be sincere, and somebody with a weak handshake may just be a bit shy and nothing more. Body language can also be overdone. While eye contact gives an impression of friendliness, too much eye contact or eye contact which is too intense（极为强烈的） can make people feel uncomfortable. 7. The candidate for the job failed because _. A. she expressed a bad attitude B. she said the wrong things C. she used improper body language D. she wasnt clever enough8. When you shake someones hand you should _. A. make good contact with their hand B. say something sincere C. make frequent eye contact D. hold his hand with great strength 9. According to the sixth paragraph, our body language _. A. are ignored by most people B. tells other people what you are really likeC. is much more important than what you say D. may give other people the false idea 10. Which is the main purpose of the text? _A. To explain what the right communication skills are. B. To introduce body language to readers. C. To show why handshakes are important. D. To help readers to get a better job. 二 七选五（每小题2分，共10分）Easy Ways to Boost（改善） Your Mood_11_ Taking an extra moment for yourself will make your day brighter and give you a healthier outlook on life.
