Then we can start to invite people to dinner in small numbers next month.”So Mrs. Harris said, “Yes, I'll invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th December.”“How many will that be?” Mr. Harris asked. “Don't invite too many.”Mrs. Harris was beginning to write the invitations when her husband saw that she was writing, “Party: 6:30 to 8: 30 p.m.”“That isn't very nice, is it?” he said. “You're telling our guests that they must goat 8:30.” So Mrs. Harris just wrote “Party: 6:30 p.m.”A lot of guests came, and they all had a good time, so they did not go home at 8:30. In fact they were still there at mid-night when the doorbell rang and a policeman arrived. He said, “You must stop making noise, because someone has complained.”Mr. Harris said he did not want to quarrel with the policeman, so everyone went home.

That is all—milk. At the same time, a woman enters the same grocery store also to buy milk. She buys it. But, she also buys chicken and lemons to make dinner that night. Then she remembers to buy food for her son to eat at the school. She also gets a bottle of wine for drinks with friends and a birthday card for her husband's niece. Then she gets coffee for breakfast, ice cream for dessert and remembers stamps to mail the bills.And that is the difference between the female and male brains. It can be simply explained in a grocery store. Generally speaking, men do one thing at a time. Women do many. Doing many things at a time is often called “multi-tasking”, a very popular word these days.Now scientific research supports this theory about male and female brains. They found that male brains have more connections on one side of the brain, or hemisphere(脑半球) .In the female brain, they found more activities and connections between the right and left sides of the brain. The left side of the brain is known as the side of “reason”. The right hemisphere is known as the “creative” side.Regina Verma is a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. She says when women are asked to do something difficult, they use different parts of the brain. Men, she adds, generally use just one side of the brain. As a result men generally deal directly with a problem. Women, however, might include other parts of the brain, like the part connected with reason and the part connected with sensitivity(理智) when solving a problem.8. A woman with the purpose of buying milk will go to the store and buy         .A. nothing but milk      B. more things than plannedC. a lot of things except milk    D. all the things that she likes9. What can we infer from the passage?A. Male brains develop better than female brains.B. It's necessary for women to use different parts of the brain.C. Men should use two sides of the brain to solve a problem.D. Women may think more when finding a solution to the problem.10. In which section of a newspaper can we find this passage?A. Sport Report.      B. Farming Report.C. Health Report.      D. Education Report.11. What's the best title of the passage?A. Men and women think differently.  B. Do one thing or do many a time.C. The male and female interest in shopping.D. The study on the behavior of men and women.Dif you want to do your kids a favor, cons der having them walk to school Waking to school provides many benefits-improving academic performance, reducing anxiety, boosting spirits, better sleep, a sense of independence, having an opportunity to familiarize oneself with a neighborhood, to notice small details, to feel a sense of wonder at the surroundings, to enjoy the fresh air out of the cars. The list goes on.Parental fears still exit however Parents are terrified of cars, of injury, of harsh weather, of encounters with strangers and wild animals. These fears prevent parents from letting their kids do something that actually enormously beneficial to them, despite the fact that removing an opportunity to be active contributes to an increase in childhood obesity, which can have a greater negative impact on a child's life than the risk of being injured due to being active.How do we go from being a society that does not encourage its children to walk independently to being one that does? Parents must face their own discomfort with letting go. Brussoni, an expert who researches children's outdoor and risky play, said “We want to move parents from focusing solely on protecting their child to building trust in their child's abilities and strategies to support their child's skills in navigating the streetscape(街景画) .”Schools can play a role by encouraging children to walk to school. Brussoni offers additional suggestions: “They should promote a culture that walking to school is the norm (规范), help educate parents on why this is important, and consider closing the streets around the school to cars before and after school.”Parents might do well to put themselves in their children's shoes. As adults, we know how good a morning walk feels to start off a day or to end one. Walking energizes us and cheers us up, and it can do the same for children. As we go through this pandemic that has shaken up all of our lives, it's a good time to practice new routines and establish new habits. Walking to school is a great place to start.12. What can we infer about kids' usual way of going to school?A. They walk to school alone.   B. They are driven to school.C. They ride bikes to school.    D. They are led to school by teachers.13. What does Brussoni suggest parents do in paragraph 3?A. Focus on their child's safety.B. Protect their child against injury.C. Believe in their child's abilities.D. Strike traffic rules into their child's heart.14. What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 4 refer to?A. Schools.   B. Societies.   C. Governments.   D. Children.15. What is the author's purpose of writing the text?A. To show the roles of parents and schools.B. To encourage kids to form a good habit.C. To improve away of establishing a new routine.D. To advise parents to have kids walk to school.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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Are you about to start a new job?

When it came to choosing the right candidate(候选人)to participate in such competitions, I was always the first choice. Naturally, I was once again selected to represent my school in the approaching contest this year.Upon hearing the fact that I was chosen again, my classmates and friends acknowledged that I would undoubtedly be the champion again. Consequently, I became conceited(自负的) .I was so proud that I ignored the importance of practicing for the contest.A week before the contest, my teacher Ms. Sara asked, “Selena, would you like to stand in front of the class to rehearse (排练) for the contest?” She had tutored me in the past two competitions and knew how important practice was. “Just imagine you are on the stagein the audience,” she added.“I'm sorry, Ms. Sara,” I replied. “I have a bit of a sore throat.”This was usually the lie I would tell whenever my teacher requested me to practice in front of the class. I always found excuses to avoid doing it because I believed that I was the best and therefore the practice was unnecessary. On one occasion, I event old Ms. Sara not to worry too much as I was well prepared for the contest. In fact, I did everything but practice my script(讲稿) .I only managed to glance briefly through the story the day before the contest. As the best storyteller among the students of the local secondary schools, I was too vain to practice and expected everything to be fine.The contest was being held in the local community hall. On the day of the contest, the hall was crowded with people. My schoolteachers and principal were there along with many of my classmates and schoolmates. I was the eighth contestant out of twenty in total. Those who spoke before me did extremely well. On seeing their fascinating and outstanding performance, I began to lose confidence in myself. My palms(手掌) sweated heavily and I started to feel nervous.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。Soon it was my turn to talk.                                                                           Finally, I heard the results announced after the contest and felt sad.                                          2022—2023学年度第一学期期末教学质量监测高二英语科试题 答案Ⅰ. 阅读 （50分）1—3: BCA    4—7: BACB    8—11: BDCA     12—15: BCAD     16—20: FGEACⅡ. 语言知识及应用 （30分）21—25 BCABD       26—30 DCAAB      31—35 ADBAC36. the          37. to celebrate      38. what          39. which        40. of     41. traditional    42. is put           43. relatives       44. enjoying      45. hasⅢ. 写作  （40分）第一节  （15分）Dear Jack, How is everything going? Knowing that you’re having trouble with English learning, I am sorry to hear that and writing to offer you some advice.As far as I’m concerned, first, concentrating on English lessons is the most important. While listening to the teacher, you should take notes. Meanwhile, make sure you can memorize the vocabulary, which plays a hugely important role in English learning. Trying to communicate in English as often as possible can help you improve your oral English. It is also beneficial for you to watch some American TV series or listen to some English songs in your spare time.I hope my suggestions can help you. I believe with your hard work your English will be better soon!Yours,Li Hua第二节 (25分)   One possible version:Soon it was my turn to talk. Facing the crowd, I found myself suffering from stage fright. I spoke nervously and even stuttered a few times as I forgot parts of the story. My legs trembled and so did my voice. On seeing my terrible performance, the judges shook their heads. The supporters from my school looked at me in disappointment. I had never been so embarrassed in my life. In the end, I walked off the stage, with my eyes filled with tears. Finally, I heard the results announced after the contest and felt sad. I did not win any prizes, which was not surprising at all. I felt rather ashamed when I faced my classmates and of course, Ms. Sara. I regretted my foolish behavior. On the following day, I went to visit Ms. Sara and apologized. Ms. Sara held my hands, seriously saying, “It’s OK. But from this, you should learn that pride goes before a fall and that practice makes perfect.” I nodded my head and promised to keep this experience as a life-long reminder.
