科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2013屆江西省上饒縣中學(xué)高三第一次月考英語(yǔ)試卷(帶解析) 題型:閱讀理解

It takes less than six seconds to leave a first impression. It is said that we ought not judge a book by its cover, but come on, isn’t it the color, the design, the layout, and the title that draw us to pick up a book we’ve never heard of before? Notice what your assumptions are about a person when you are first introduced to her or him.
Something that most of us don’t take notice of is how we stand or walk. Let’s say you are going for a job interview. Within seconds you have already said a lot about yourself by the way you walk. The majority of us walk around everyday without paying any attention to what we are saying even though we are not uttering a word. There is a lot that can be said about body language from the clothes you wear to the gestures you make.
I took notice of this topic recently as I recalled something about changing my posture to improve my level of confidence. I was about to venture on a new project, which would take me out of my comfort zone. My gremlins (小精靈) were having a field day with me uttering all kinds of reasons why I couldn’t do a good job with this new opportunity. I tucked in my tummy (收縮肚子) , put my shoulders back , held my head high , and took a walk. Soon thereafter, I felt so much better. I approached the project with new possibility. Wow, what a difference ! Try it !
The ability to capture your audience when you walk into a room is sure to start you off on the right foot when going on an interview. Non-verbal signals have five times the impact of verbal (言語(yǔ)的)signals. So you can count on losing your audience when you walk in with head down dragging your feet regardless how much you try to change it.
【小題1】In the first paragraph the author intends to tell us         .

A.we shouldn’t judge a book by its cover
B.a(chǎn) person’s appearance can be misread
C.the first impression really means a lot
D.we should focus more on a person’s qualities
【小題2】The author approached his project with new possibility after        .
A.his gremlins stopped talking
B.he got rid of all his negative thoughts
C.he walked out of his comfort zone
D.he changed his posture to improve his confidence
【小題3】According to the author , when we go for a job interview , we       .
A.shouldn’t say a lot about ourselves
B.shouldn’t walk with our head high up
C.should pay enough attention to our body language and gesture
D.should only pay attention to the way we walk within the first few seconds
【小題4】The author probably believes that        .
A.non-verbal signals are more important than verbal signals
B.non-verbal signals are not so easy to catch
C.we mainly rely on verbal signals during an interview
D.we shouldn’t pay too much attention to our non-verbal signals
【小題5】What is mainly talked about in the passage?
A.How to prepare for a job interview
B.The way we walk says a lot about us.
C.How to read a person from the way he walks.
D.How complicated body language is.

There are many American expressions about insects--- like bees, for example. Bees are known as very hard workers. They appear to be busy, moving around their homes, or hives (蜂窩). So you might say you were as busy as a bee if you spent your weekend cleaning your house. In fact, you might say your house was a beehive of activity if your whole family was helping you clean. You also might say you made a beeline for something if you went there right away. When we go to see a movie, my friend always makes a beeline for the place where they sell popcorn (爆米花) .

   Here is an expression about bees that is not used much any more, but we like it anyway. We think it was first used in the 1920s. If something was the best of its kind, you might say it was the bee’s knees. Now, we admit that we do not know how this expression developed. In fact, we do not even know if bees have knees!

   If your friend cannot stop talking about something because she thinks it is important, you might say she has a bee in her bonnet (女帽). If  someone asks you a personal question, you might say “that is none of your beeswax”. This means none of your business.

   Speaking of personal questions, there is an expression when their children ask, “Where do babies come from?” Parents who discuss sex and reproduction (生殖) say this is talking about the birds and bees.

   Butterflies are beautiful insects, but you would not want to have butterflies in your stomach. That means to be nervous about having to do something, like speaking in front of a crowd. You would also not want to have ants in your trousers. That is, to be unable to sit still.

1. If you make a beeline for something, you ______ .

   A. are as busy as a bee            B. go quickly and directly towards it

   C. always go to the same place     D. buy something at a certain place

2. The underlined expression “ it is the bee’s knees” _______ .

   A. is not used at all now          B. was first used in the 1820s

   C. reminds us that bees have knees  D. means “it is very good”

3. If you ask your American friend Jack “How old is your wife?” he may say “______.”

   A. It is none of your beeswax      B. You have a bee in your bonnet

   C. It is the bee’s knees            D. You are talking about the birds and bees

4. When you have butterflies in your stomach, you ______ .

   A. are too sick to sit still           B. have ants in your trousers

   C. are nervous about something     D. have a stomachache

5. The passage mainly tells us _______.

   C. the way of learning expressions     D. some newly-invented expressions

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:20102011學(xué)年浙江富陽(yáng)場(chǎng)口中學(xué)高二11月期中教學(xué)質(zhì)量檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)試題 題型:閱讀理解

In the 13th century, the famous Italian traveler, Marco Polo, traveled a long way to China. During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people didn’t use the paper money until 15th century. However, people in China began to use paper money in the 7th century.

   A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2,000 years ago. He took the wood from trees and made it into paper. He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.

   Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. Every day, people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 48,000 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now.

   So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can use cotton handkerchiefs and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant gives us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.

   Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. But we should do it now, before it is too late.

1. When he was in China, Marco Polo ____________.

   A. discovered Cai Lun invented paper  B. learned to make paper

   C. saw many wonderful things        D. read a lot of books

2. Which of the following is not a way of saving paper?

   A. To use both sides of every piece of paper

   B. To use fewer paper bags when shopping

   C. To use cotton handkerchiefs instead of paper ones

   D. To grow more trees

3. Which of the following is not true?

   A. If we keep on wasting paper, we will have no paper to use one day.

   B. The Chinese used paper money much earlier than people in western countries.

   C. About 48,000 trees can be used to make 2,800 tons of paper.

   D. It is never too late to plant trees for paper.

4. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

   A. Saving Paper                       B. The History of Paper

   C. Cotton Handkerchiefs Back Again    D. Cai Lun, the Inventor

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2009-2010學(xué)年甘肅省天水市第二學(xué)期第一階段考試題高二英語(yǔ) 題型:閱讀理解

My topic is fashion(時(shí)裝). Fashion is important to all of us. Now we are all wearing school uniforms(校服). When we go home, what do we do? We change into other clothes. If we are going out, we like to wear fashionable clothes. So my first object is this blouse. It looks beautiful, doesn’t it? It is the most expensive piece of clothing, and I love it. It cost over $600. You may say that it is too expensive, but luckily I can afford it. The more you spend, the better the quality is. So you see, fashion is quite important to me, I admire it.

However, I’m not as fond of fashion as my elder brother. Last summer, my parents took us both to London. They wanted to show us some famous sights. But my brother Gary did not appreciate the old buildings. He just wanted to spend all his time in the big shopping arcades(拱廊), searching for the coolest pair of trousers! For him, fashion was more important than culture. These are the trousers he bought. Were they worth the expensive of a trip to London to buy these? I don’t think so. I think it was a waste of time and money.

We must, however, remember that fashion is a very big business. Changes in fashion can create or lose jobs. As an example, I have bought this blonde(淡黃色的) wig(假發(fā)) to show you. Do you like it? It belongs to one of my mother’s friends. She told me that in the 1960s, it was fashionable for western women to wear wigs. But a few years later fashions changed and women wore wigs much less often. Then the wig factories closed down and hundreds of workers lost their jobs.

53. The passage may be ____.  

A. a story from a magazine        B. a piece of news from a newspaper

C. a report on the radio           D. a speech to the classmates

54. The author (作者)showed all these objects EXCEPT_____ in the passage.

A. the blonde wig                B. the expensive blouse

C. the coolest trousers             D. the school uniform

55. What does the author (作者)want to tell us in last paragraph?

A. Wigs were always popular

B. People in the east once liked wearing blonde wigs

C. Fashion is actually a business

D. Business often depends on the production of wigs.
