齐市八中2020-2021学年高二上学期开学考试 英语试卷 阅读理解（共15小题，每题2分）                                 A  Yesterday, I met a delightful woman at a work event. As we talked, she talked about her childhood in Manila, Philippines. She spoke about the way her culture values their elders, and she explained that children are educated from the time of birth to honor and respect people older than themselves.It was refreshing to hear that, and I enjoyed listening and learning. Here is the memory she shared that I found so beautiful:When she was growing up, her father had three jobs to take care of his family. She said her dad never complained, and though he worked very hard, he always had time for them. One day, her father was injured at his full-time job. For several months, he was mailed temporary (暂时的) disability checks while he recovered.When her father was able to return to his full-time job, he took all those disability checks that were sent to him while he was recovering and handed them back to the company. He told them that he had good legs and arms, and did not need this money. He told them to give the money to people who could not work, to people who really needed it.The woman telling the story was a little girl at that time. She had accompanied her father that very day when he went back to his company with all those unopened checks.“My father is my hero,” she said. Lowering her voice, she said she would never forget what he did, and what an inspiration and influential mentor (良师益友) he was on how to live life. From my communication with her, it was very obvious that her father’s same sweet spirit had been passed down to this woman, and to her family.Hearing this story was so refreshing to my soul. I hope it is the same to you too.1．When the woman was talking about her childhood, the writer was probably ________.A．sad and movedB．surprised and angryC．annoyed and disappointedD．interested and joyful2．The woman’s father took the temporary disability checks back to his company because ________.A．he felt he was looked down uponB．he wasn’t satisfied with the amountC．he thought others needed them more than himD．he felt sorry that he had hurt himself by accident3．What did the writer find after talking with the woman?A．The woman didn’t know how hard life was.B．The woman missed her father very much.C．The woman’s father influenced her in a good way.D．The woman didn’t think her father made the right decision.4．By writing the story, the writer ________.A．tries to tell us what we can learn from our parentsB．hopes we can get encouraged by good deedsC．shows respect for real heroes in our livesD．wants to ask us to value our familyB Shakespeare is more popular globally than with people in Britain, though the poet has made an important contribution to Britain's economy and culture, a new research showed Tuesday.According to a new survey "All the World's", commissioned(委托)by the British Council and conducted by YouGov, the great playwright(剧作家)has been proved more popular outside Britain(65%)than in his own country (59%).A total of 18,000 respondents(调查对象)in 15 countries participated in the survey in November 2015.

Amiko, who was Japanese American, enjoyed hearing Durga describe her life in India. Amiko also loved being invited for dinner at Durga's house.

That is an old expression, but one worth knowing. A recent look at diets around the world shows that people who eat healthy food—and not too much of it—live longer. But which areas of the world have the best diets？Researchers found that foods in some of the healthiest diets—Mediterranean, New Nordic, Japanese and French—may be very different, but they are all heavy on local, seasonal and limit processed foods, which are high in vegetables and seafood and low in red meat.Mediterranean diet contains lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and olive oil. The diet has proper amounts of fish and poultry (禽肉). Red meat and foods high in sugar and salt are not big parts of this diet.New Nordic diet has whole grains like oats and rye, vegetables such as carrots, broccoli and eggs, seafood, fruits, oil, low­fat milk and cheese. Very sugary desserts are not common in this diet.Japanese people are some of the longest­living people on the planet, with women up to 87 years old and men up to 80. The Japanese diet is the reason for such lengths of life. The diet has many foods that are low in calories and high in nutrients. Japanese people eat a lot of seaweed, tofu, rice, vegetables and fish. The tradition there is to stop eating when your stomach feels 80 percent full.However, French people eat fatty foods but do not get fat. And they live a long time. This phenomenon is called the "French Paradox". The reason why the French eat fatty foods without getting fat may be simple. They eat less. Serving sizes in French restaurants and in products sold in stores are smaller than those in most countries. And generally speaking, most French people do not snack. This means they do not eat food between meals.12．What do we know about the healthiest diets around the world?A．They contain abundant calories. B．They tend to be expensive.C．They share certain similarities. D．They reflect popular tastes.13．What is considered as a harmful eating habit in Japanese tradition?A．Going low in calories. B．Eating to the fullest.C．Having much seafood. D．Picking many foods.14．How does the author develop the central idea in the last 4 Paragraphs?A．By building connections. B．By exploring reasons.C．By listing out examples. D．By analyzing figures.15．Which can be the most suitable title for the text?A．What is the healthiest diet on earth? B．How does the old expression serve?C．Why is a healthy diet so important? D．Where can we plant ourselves well? 七选五（共5小题，每题2分）  Life is filled with regrets (遗憾).

My classmates and I are talking about how to do during the holiday. We can chose between staying at home and take a trip. If we stay at home, it is comfortable but there is no need to spend money. But in that case, we will learn little about world. If we go on a trip abroad, we can broaden your view and gain knowledges we cannot get from books.

It does not cost many money, yet we can still learn a lot.书面表达（25分）假如你是高一学生李华，你校英文报Sports栏目正在面向新生组织题为My Favorite Sport的征文比赛。请你向英文报投稿。内容包括：1）你喜欢的运动；2）你喜欢该运动的原因。注意：1）词数80左右；2）可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
