The Great Pyramid was built thousands of years ago for a king called Khufu. It stands on the west bank of the Nile River not far from Cairo. In fact, all the pyramids along the Nile are on its west bank. The ancient Egyptians compared the rising of the sun to the beginning of life and the setting of the sun to the end of life. This is why their dead bodies were buried on the west bank of the Nile.‎ More pyramids were built in the Americas than in Egypt. About 90 pyramids are known to have stood in Egypt, while several hundred small pyramids are scattered（分散）across Central and South America.‎ The people of Mexico also built pyramids. They did not build the pyramids for tombs. They used to build a pyramid and then a temple on the top of it. The pyramids of Mexico are not as high as the pyramids of Egypt, but they are big. Each of the pyramids has a wide stairway（阶梯）that goes from the bottom to the top. The biggest pyramid in Mexico is almost 2,000 years old. Scientists think it took 10,000 men more than ten years to build it. On the top they built a temple of the sun. The temple is no longer there but people still called it the Pyramid of the Sun. Near it is another huge pyramid, the Pyramid of the Moon.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）In ancient Egypt pyramids were built ________.‎ A.for king Khufu B.for visitors to see C.as the kings' tombs D.for kings to live in ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）All the pyramids along the Nile are on its west bank, because in ancient Egypt people thought ________.‎ A.the sun sets in the west B.they died in the west C.they would go to the west after death D.the end of their lives was like the setting of the sun ‎ ‎ ‎（3）The article indicates that the pyramids in ancient Mexico were built ________.‎ A.for wars B.for the gods C.for the kings D.for the people ‎ ‎ ‎3. ‎ English is a very interesting language. It has borrowed words from many other languages. Immigrants（移民）coming into the United States have contributed many words to the language, which have kept their original pronunciation. "Coolie" and "kowtow" were taken from the Chinese language, "kamikaze" from the Japanese, "shampoo" from India, "blitz" from German, "amigo" and "Los Angeles" from Spanish and so on.‎ Many students have studied English for years. However, some students still have difficulty in speaking fluent English. Some know many words but are unable to discern them when native speakers use them. In our Oral English classes we will focus on speaking and listening to native English speakers. For this reason, because we are trying to train your ears to hear English and your mouths to speak intelligible（易理解的）English, we will have a rule that ONLY ENGLISH will be spoken in our English classes. Anyone speaking Chinese in class will be required to pay a fine in order to encourage the speaking and understanding of English. If teachers enter a classroom and discover that anyone is speaking Chinese, they will require everyone in the room to pay the fine. It is everyone's job to enforce the English-Only rule. It is for your benefit. It is because we want to accustom（使习惯于）your ears to hearing English.‎ Other subjects may be leaned solely from books but the only way to learn a foreign language is to SPEAK IT!‎ 第9页 共12页 ◎ 第10页 共12页 ‎ Students are often nervous about speaking in class at first but we hope to make the classes fun, so you will forget your nervousness and lean to speak out. Enjoy your classes.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）The first paragraph is mainly about ________.‎ A.how interesting and various English is B.the difficulty of learning English C.the immigrants' contributions to America D.different words in different languages ‎ ‎ ‎（2）The underlined word "discern" in Para 2 can be replaced by ________.‎ A.hear B.speak C.understand D.notice ‎ ‎ ‎（3）In the author's opinion, the only way to learn a language well is to ________.‎ A.use it to communicate often B.listen to it on the radio C.play games with it D.lean it from books ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（4）The article is probably aimed at ________.‎ A.German students B.Japanese students C.Indian students D.Chinese students ‎ 二、七选五阅读 ‎ ‎ ‎ 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。 ‎ Body language provides a lot of information on what other people are thinking. A research has shown that 55% of communication comes from body language.（1）________ Next time you're in a meeting, watch for these cues（暗示）:‎ Real smiles crinkle（使起皱纹）the eyes. When it comes to smiling, the mouth can lie but the eyes can't. Real smiles reach the eyes, crinkling the skin to create crow's feet around them. People often smile to hide what they're really thinking and feeling, so the next time you want to know if someone's smile is real, look for crinkles at the corners of their eyes.（2）________‎ ‎（3）________ Have you ever been in a meeting with someone and noticed that every time you cross or uncross your legs, they do the same? Or perhaps they lean（倾斜）their head the same way as yours when you're talking? That's actually a good sign. It means that the conversation is going well and that the other party accepts your message.‎ Eyes that lie. Most of us believe that it's difficult to hold someone's gaze（凝视）when they're lying. But that's such common knowledge that people will often try to hold eye contact, hoping to cover up the fact that they're lying.（4）________ If you're talking with someone whose gaze is making you uncomfortable, something is up and they might be lying to you.‎ Even if you can't read a person's exact thoughts, you can learn a lot from their body language.（5）________‎ ‎ A. If they aren't there, that smile is hiding something. B. Copying your body language is a good thing in a meeting. C. Good topics will lead to good conversations in a meeting. D. You'll have to find out how long they have looked at you. E. That's especially true when their words and body language don't match. F. Learning well how to understand that 55% can give you plenty of help. G. The problem is that most of them will hold eye contact until it feels uncomfortable.‎ 三、完形填空 ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Eyes are a kind of language we use to express ourselves. Through one's eyes, we can（1）________ sorrow, happiness or encouragement and many other（2）________. Eyes are always one of the fastest and most direct organs to（3）________ our thoughts.‎ I still remember an（4）________ experience, which happened when I took part in a singing contest at the age of nine.

When I came down from the stage, she came up to me and gave me a（19）________ hug, saying, "Great! I'm proud of you!" At that time, I found her eyes filled with tears of（20）________.

If we are satisfied with only a few rules, we are not（8）________（real）learning the language. "Learn through use" is a good piece of advice for those（9）________ are studying a new language.

Suddenly a crow（乌鸦）perched（栖息）on their window.‎ The father asked his son, "What is this?" The son answered, "It is a crow."‎ After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, "What is this?" The son said, "Father, I have just now told you, it's a crow!"‎ After a little while, the old father again asked his son for the third time, "What is this?" At this time some expression of irritation（恼怒）was felt in the son's tone when he said to his father with a rebuff（生硬回绝）. "It's a crow, a crow."‎ A little while later, the father again asked his son the fourth time, "What is this?" This time, the son shouted at his father, "Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times 'IT IS A CROW'. Are you not able to understand this?"‎ A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered（发皱的）diary, which he had maintained since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary: "Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I did not at all feel irritated but I rather felt affection（爱）for my innocent son."‎ 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语； 3. 续写部分分为两段，每段开头语已为你写好； 4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1: ‎ After reading the diary, the son was filled with tears and began to reflect on（回想）the days when he used to sit together with his father. ________‎ Paragraph 2: ‎ Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. ________‎ 第9页 共12页 ◎ 第10页 共12页 参考答案与试题解析 ‎2019-2020学年湖南娄底高一下英语期中试卷 一、阅读理解 ‎1.‎ ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 文明出约 推正移断 应水射阅读 细射理子 广告常告够阅读 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎2.‎ ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 推正移断 说使文以读 细射理子 历史于化类氨读 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎3.‎ ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 段表大综 推正移断 说使文以读 词较脱测 细射理子 社会明化政阅读 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 二、七选五阅读 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 说明根废选五 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 三、完形填空 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 人体故硫 记验立完形 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 四、语法填空 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 说明都资法填空 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 五、书面表达 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 提纲类 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 读三续硬 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 第9页 共12页 ◎ 第10页 共12页 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 第9页 共12页 ◎ 第10页 共12页
