百强校河北定州中学2016-2017学年第一学期高一英语周练试题（10）

一、选择题

You surely want to take a good school yearbook photo, for you only get to do it once, and it’s what people remember you by for the whole school year．Learn how to look good and look natural in your yearbook photo with these simple tips．

1．Practice smiling in a mirror．It sounds crazy, but figuring out how to make a natural looking smile for the camera does need a little preparation．Don’t be shy! Just imagine you are in front of a camera —hold your head high, look straight into the mirror and smile．Keep practicing until you find out your most attractive smiling face．

2．Choose your color wisely．In yearbook photos, lots of people look good in darker colors because they draw attention to the face．Generally, white often isn’t the best choice because it can make your skin look a bit gray, especially if you’re pale．Besides, stay away from super(超级的)-bright colors ( bright yellow, bright blue) unless you’re really sure they make you look perfect．

3．Avoid unnecessary details．Busy patterns draw attention to themselves in yearbook photos, not to your face and smile．Save them for your everyday fashion experiments．Besides, have your clothes prepared for the day when the yearbook photo is taken．The last thing you want to do is pick out the perfect thing to wear, only to find that it’s in the laundry．

4．Avoid big changes to your appearance．Big changes may not turn out the way you hope．Leave some time to do your hair, such as combing(梳头) it up right before the yearbook photo is taken．Don’t overdo it, since you want your hair to stay in one place and your face to draw all the attention, but go for the"less is more" approach．

1．The best title of this passage is ______．

A． How to Make Yourself Look Good

B． How to Do When Taking a School Photo

C． How to Get Ready for Your School Photo-taking

D． How to Make a Good School Photo Book

2．A bright yellow shirt is not a good choice for taking photos because _______．

A． it reflects light with the brightness

B． it makes people look gray and pale

C． it draws more attention than the face

D． it suits nobody in front of a camera

3．The underlined part"less is more" in the last paragraph means _______．

A． common hair style is more attractive than the over-done

B． simple hair style makes your face more attractive

C． spending less time on hair makes you look more attractive

D． combing the hair up right costs less time but means more

4．During the preparation for photo-taking ______．

A． a camera is needed

B． clothes should be in the laundry

C． fashion should be perfectly showed

D． big changes are not needed

Polluted airborne particles(大气悬浮颗粒) kill 7 million people a year, reports the World Health Organization.

That news may not come as a surprise to anyone who has seen images of chimneys in Beijing, Delhi or Mexico. But those factories－or even the jammed roadways of modern cities－are not the biggest killer. Each year, some 4.3 million people die earlier than they should because of polluted air inside their homes, says the WHO.

What's causing the air inside people's homes to be so poisonous that it kills around 11,000 people a day? Stoves. “Having an open fire in your kitchen is like burning 400 cigarettes an hour.” says Kirk Smith, a professor at the University of California at Berkeley, whose research suggests that household air pollution from cooking killed between 3.5 million and 4 million people in 2013.

Not all stoves cause this kind of harm. The ones Smith's talking about are those that the 3 billion people in the developing world use for heat and cooking, which burn solid fuels such as wood, coal, or crop waste instead of gas. The smoke from those fires produces harmful fine particles and carbon monoxide into homes. Poor ventilation then prevents that smoke from escaping, raising fine particle levels 100 times higher than the limits that the WHO considers acceptable.

Breathing this air day in day out eventually causes a lot of diseases: more than a third of the 4.3 million die of a stroke, while a quarter die of heart disease. And around one-third of annual lung disease deaths worldwide are due to waste from coal stoves.

Exposure tends to be extremely harmful for the people who spend the most time around the fire－usually women and young children. In fact, the WHO reports that household air pollution almost doubles the risk for childhood lung disease.

5．According to Kirk Smith's research,________.

1. factories are the biggest killer worldwide nowadays
2. burning 400 cigarettes an hour is extremely dangerous
3. household air pollution from cooking is surprisingly harmful
4. some 4.3 million people die earlier each year than they should

6．What should be the deadly killer in a household kitchen?

1. Solid fuels. B. Coal stoves.

C. Poor gas. D. Cooking smoke.

7． The underlined word “ventilation” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.

1. airing B. cooking C. burning D. cooling

8．The author intends to tell people ________.

1. how to avoid polluted air in their homes
2. to stop cooking in the household kitchen
3. to guard against household pollution from cooking
4. how to prevent childhood lung diseases in household

How Technology Can Help Language Learning

Intelligence, according to Howard Gardner, is of eight types—verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical-rhythmic, visual-spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic. This is the first in a series of posts that explore and understand how each of the above forms of intelligence is affected by technology-mediated education.

Verbal-linguistic Intelligence involves sensitivity to spoken and written language, the ability to learn languages, and the capacity to use language to accomplish goals. Such intelligence is developed by three specific activities: reading, writing and interpersonal communication—both written and oral. The traditional tools that have been used to efficiently develop verbal/linguistic intelligence—textbook, pencil, and paper—are giving way to technology in many schools. E-books, Internet lesson plans, online assignments and word processing software, or a subset of the above, are now common in schools. Technology allows addition of multisensory (多种感觉的) elements that provide meaningful contexts to help comprehension, thus expanding the learning ground of language and linguistics.

Research into the effect of technology on the development of the language and literacy skills vis-à-vis reading activities of children has offered evidence for favorable effects of digital-form books. A study shows that digital reading materials have become common in developing countries in early childhood classrooms to support engagement in storybooks while enhancing the emergent literacy (早期读写能力) among children. E-books are also being increasingly used to teach reading among beginners and children with reading difficulties.

Technology can be used to improve reading ability in many ways. It can enhance (加强) and sustain the interest levels for children by allowing immediate feedback on performance and providing added practice when necessary. Recent research shows that students are able to improve their sight word vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension through computer-based reading.

Technology can also help in improvement of writing skills. Word processing software promotes not only composition but also editing and revising in ways that streamline the task of writing. Desktop publishing and web-based publishing allow the work to be taken beyond the classroom into a virtual world that allows more constructive interactions.

Technology enhanced oral communication is indeed useful in that it allows students from remote locations, or from all over the world to communicate orally through video and audio conferencing tools. For example, students of languages in Australian universities overcome the problem of insufficient contact with native language speakers by using online audio and video tools that allow the development of aural, vocal and visual-cognition skills that are important in verbal and linguistic education. Oral group discussions in the form of video conferencing can help non-native speakers of a language with natural language negotiation and cultural intonations in ways that have not been possible due to geographic isolation.

Computer definitely aided language learning and computer mediated communication enhance teaching and learning experiences in the areas of linguistics and language intelligence. Although there have not been comprehensive studies on the use of technologies to aid K-12 English-language learners, there have been many individual computer programs and other technologies that accelerate the acquisition of phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and reading-comprehension skills and other language building blocks.

五、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。

40． Being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like a volcano!

41． Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper. 42．

Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something, or even worse, hit their brothers or sisters. 43． However, it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things. Kids don’t want to act in this way, but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?

Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. 44． Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training. The puppy is not bad—it will probably turn out a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.

1. Kids should be allowed to express their feelings, even angry ones.
2. You can train you temper.
3. You don’t want to cause trouble.
4. Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some other kids.

E. Instead of thinking of the person you’re angry with, think of something else.

F. In fact, they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.

G. Everybody gets angry sometimes.

Dear editor,

With the fast development of e-commerce, online shopping is increasingly becoming an unavoidable part of the young’s life.

The popularity of online shopping definitely has its own reasons. First and foremost, online shopping usually means something you buy both cheap in price and better in quality. Besides, goods you get online come to you fast as well as conveniently, saving your tiredness of shopping and walking. But the other side of the coin is also true. Goods bought online are not as fine as those from the store which you can watch, feel and smell by yourself. Some online shoppers become impatient or even unreasonable after you have paid for the goods.

In my opinion, we should improve our e-commerce laws to regulate the activities of online purchase. Meanwhile, as the online customers, we should be cautious while shopping online.

Best wishes

Yours，
