吉安2024-2025学年第一学期期末教学质量检测试题(卷)初一英语

1、阅读下面短文。

Have you ever made a promise to yourself that you didn’t keep? 1.Usually, when the New Year begins, we make resolutions like studying harder or learning to play the guitar. Sadly not long after that, we often end up breaking them. But what if we want to develop a new good habit?

A habit is something we do almost without realizing it. It’s just like having breakfast or saying “Thank you”, which most of us do every day.

2. 极据一项研究, 培养一个新习惯通常需要66天。This is possible. However, willpower （意志力） might not be the only thing you need. The reason for developing the habit is important.

The problem is, your feelings may influence your willpower. For example, a bad feeling may mean you don’t want to do anything.

3.这研究也表明你不应该一次改变太多。 Remember that it’s a case of baby steps. Giving up all your favorite foods, doing morning exercise and going to bed early at the same time will probably result in failure.

4. Finally, if you feel uncomfortable when doing something, then stop doing it.

It might not be quick to develop a new habit. But if you follow the advice, you may succeed. 5.So be patient and believe that you can make change for the better.

24、It’s a cold, grey Sunday afternoon in March. The British are all working in their gardens. They’re digging, cutting leaves and planting new seeds(种子). By summer, their gardens will be full of bright colours.

The British love their gardens. A British newspaper recently asked people for their opinions about them. Around 70% of the people felt it was important to spend time in the garden, and over 50% of these described gardening as the most enjoyable thing they ever did.

Only one in ten houses in Britain do not have a garden. People who live in houses without gardens often rent (租用) land from the government.

At first, only very rich people had gardens. You can still see the gardens around houses with a long history, such as Chats worth House or Castle Howard. In the early twentieth century, however, gardening became a hobby. People bought different kinds of seeds and plants for their gardens. Although roses, sunflowers and tomatoes are often grown in British gardens, they originally (起初) grew wild in other countries.

Every year, there are competitions for the largest vegetables, but don’t expect to win: Britain’s biggest carrot is almost six metres long.

【1】In summer, British gardens are often ________.

A．full of people digging there

B．colorful with different plants

C．too hot for people to work there

D．covered with grey leaves and plants

【2】We can infer from Paragraph 4 that ________.

A．seeds were provided for free

B．roses were first grown in Britain

C．gardening is a hobby in the world

D．the owner of Chats worth House was rich

【3】What does the writer mean by the underlined sentence?

A．It is easy to grow big vegetables.

B．It is hard to win the competition.

C．The carrot is much easier to grow.

D．The carrot is his favorite vegetable.

25、In recent years, there have been many films about robots trying to take over the world. Studies show that up to 20 million factory jobs worldwide could be taken by robots in the next 10 years. Some people are worried about what might happen in the future.

On 8th September, 2020, the Guardian published (发表) an article written by a robot called GPT-3. It wrote that “robot” comes from the Greek word for “slave”(奴隶) and humans have nothing to fear from robots, which are only here to help humans. However, the fact that a robot could write such an article has made some people feel even more uneasy. Where is the robot technology heading? Can robots and humans work together?

       YES-they’re here to help humans

       Robots are created by humans for humans. Robots take on jobs that are too dangerous for people to do by themselves. Although robots might take some people’s jobs, they will create new types of work, and they will possibly create more jobs than they take away. Besides, robots’ programming could actually make them more trustworthy (可靠的)than humans, because they are not influenced by feelings.

       NO-humans should not trust robots

       Robots are already taking over the world. Jobs that used to be done by human beings are now being taken by robots. Although robots are under our control now, that might not always be the case. An experiment in Switzerland found that some robots had learnt how to lie to each other. With the development of AI (人工智能), robots could start to act in their own interests. Wherever possible, human should do things themselves.

       What’s your opinion on this matter?

26、People from all over the world like chocolate. Made from cocoa beans, chocolate was a drink before becoming a food. It was first drunk by Central Americans thousands of years ago. 【1】 At the time, only rich people could drink chocolate because it was expensive. About 150 years ago, people started to eat chocolate.

Nowadays, everybody can enjoy chocolate easily. Studies suggest that eating a little chocolate once a week can help keep us from heart disease. Dark chocolate is better than milk chocolate because it has more cocoa. 【2】

We often hear fun news about chocolate. 【3】

Every year in the US, a chocolate company holds a competition and the prize is a chocolate hotel room! Almost everything in the room is made of chocolate and even the walls are covered with chocolate. 【4】

【5】 In 2007, a special truck ran 4, 500 miles from the UK to West Africa. And it ran on fuel (燃料) made from waste chocolate.

27、Parents are often surprised at their children’s ability to use technology. A five-year-old child may easily find and use apps on a smart phone. A ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily. Their parents may think their children were born geniuses（天才）!

Natural geniuses, however, are not common. But your parents are right if they think you are smarter than them. Most children are born smarter than their parents. This has been proved（证明）on IQ tests around the world recently. These tests have shown that over the last 100 years, each new generation（一代人）has become smarter than the older one. In other words, you are smarter than your parents and your parents are smarter than your grandparents.

This increase in intelligence is called the “Flynn Effect”（效应）. It was named after James Flynn. Flynn is a university professor in New Zealand. He first noticed this in 1980. According to his research, with each new generation, average（平均的）IQ scores would increase by twenty percent.

But why are people getting smarter? Flynn and many other researchers believe this has something to do with technology. New technologies have further developed our brains. They have made us think better. So we may be better at completing the missing parts of a puzzle than our parents.

However, being smart doesn’t make you wise. Wisdom（智慧）comes with age and experience. A killer score on a computer game will not help you solve the everyday problems of life. For that, a smart kid will turn to the wisdom of his parents and grandparents.

【1】How do parents often feel about their children’s ability to use technology?

A．Surprised.

B．Worried.

C．Nervous.

D．Embarrassed.

【2】What has been proved on IQ tests around the world these days?

A．Children easily use apps on smart phones.

B．Most children play video games better than their parents.

C．Children are born with a high IO.

D．Most children are born smarter than their parents.

【3】What caused the “Flynn Effect” according to the passage?

A．Better education.

B．New technologies.

C．A better environment.

D．New experiences.

【4】The following facts are the “Flynn Effect” EXCEPT ________.

A．A child may easily find apps on a smart phone

B．A child may be good at completing the missing parts of a puzzle

C．A high score on a video game won’t help solve the problems in life

D．A ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily
