Dear Mary,
You wrote that you find it hard to adapt to your new school life in Xiamen. I understand quite well that you are anxious when you are in a completely new high school. But it can be easily changed if you take advantage of my tips.
Firstly, I recommend you make some friends in China, who can share your happiness and sadness. You can also hang out with them so that they can help you forget your loneliness. Secondly, you should take an active part in extra-curricular activities. There are all kinds of activities at senior high school, and you can always find some suitable for you. These activities will build up your confidence and make you well prepared for university and whatever else comes in the future. What’s more, why not learn a little Chinese It is a really beautiful language and you can learn more about Chinese culture as well.
I hope my advice will work and you will certainly have a wonderful school life in China. (168 words)
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
　　阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
　　首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
　　在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
　　猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
36~40.【答案】D、E、F、A、B
【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据上文The best feeling about going back to school is seeing all your friends （回到学校最好的感觉就是见到你所有的朋友）以及下文You have to start from scratch（你必须从头开始）可知此处上下文说的是到了新的学校会面临着从头开始带来的挑战，与 D项"Going to a new school can be pretty challenging. （去一所新学校可能很有挑战性）"表达的含义一致，故选D。
（2）推理判断题。根据下文Your new school can have the best team and the competitive drama program. （你的新学校可以拥有最好的团队和有竞争力的戏剧项目）可知此处上下文说的是要看到新学校的积极的一面，与E项"Try to look at the positive side of joining a new school. （试着去看待加入一所新学校的积极一面）"表达的含义一致，故选E。
（3）推理判断题。根据上文It is good to be familiar with the new environment （熟悉新环境是件好事）以及下文It will help you take less time to go to your lesson and settled own before the teacher arrives. （这将帮助你花更少的时间去上课，并在老师到来之前安顿下来）可知此处上下文说的是要提前熟悉教室的位置，与F项"It is advisable to know where the different rooms are located. （最好知道不同教室的位置）"表达的含义一致，故选F。
（4）标题归纳题。根据下文It is for people to love you the way you are.You are perfect the way you are.You have no single reason for changing yourself.（ 这是为了让人们以你的方式爱你。你现在的样子很完美。你没有任何改变自己的理由）可知此处上下文说的是要做你自己，不要试图去改变，与A项"Be yourself （做你自己）"表达的含义一致，故选A。
（5）推理判断题。根据下文Go to the people you know and hangout. （去找你认识的人，然后一起闲逛）可知，此处上下文说的是要去找认识的人，不要一个人呆着，与B项"Do not be alone. （不要独自一人）"表达的含义一致，故选B。
这是一篇应用文。到了新学校需要面对从头开始的许多挑战，本文针对这一问题给了几个建议。
七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子。解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子。

M: Hi, I’m Chris from Florida. Last year, I moved to London, where I’m working for an American company. It’s been a big change, and there have been lots of things to get used to. For example, in the U.S. we drive on the right, while here in Britain I’ve had to get used to driving on the left.
What else Well, the weather in Florida is usually great, so I’m used to lots of sunshine, and I used to sunbathe a lot. In London it rains so much. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it, and I always remember to take my umbrella with me.
Food in England is different, too. In America, I used to eat a lot of Mexican food. Here in England, people love Indian food, so I’m getting used to the different tastes. At the company where I work, it’s quite different. I used to work from 9 a.m. till 11 p.m. I hated working so late. Here in England, I start at 8:30 a.m., but finish at 5 p.m. On Friday evening English people like to go to the club with friends, but in America I used to go to the gym. I love sports.
Is there anything else Some of the words are different. The subway is called the “underground” in London, and British people call the fall “autumn”.厦门市翔安中学（九溪高级中学）2023-2024学年高一（上）第一次月考英语试卷

We've explored London many times and come away with quite a few lessons. Here are our tips.
Visiting Buckingham Palace
Being London's most famous landmark, this 775-room building is where Queen Elizabeth hosted feasts（盛宴）and met heads of state. But if you're dreaming of taking a visit to it, you'll need to plan your trip carefully. The palace is typically only open during the summer months from July 23rd to October 3rd. Visiting hours are from 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. If you're visiting when the palace isn't available to tour, you can still see the Changing of the Guard.
Hitting the London Eye
The London Eye is a playful addition to the city skyline. Standing near centuries-old buildings, this huge Ferris wheel spins（旋转）slowly over the left bank of the Thames，serving up views over the London Bridge and the Shard to the west, plus a wide view of the Palace of Westminster. Buy your tickets beforehand online, choose a clear day and go first thing in the morning to avoid the crowds.
Drinking afternoon tea
Afternoon tea is reason enough to come to London. The British have taken a simple tea break and turned it into a luxurious（奢侈的）ceremony, complete with patterned china, fine plates of finger sandwiches，cakes and scones in cream and jam. When making a booking, remember that afternoon tea isn't a snack but a full meal with sweet and salty elements（元素）, and you'll be full. The smart move is to leave out lunch and maybe even dinner.
21. Which is a suitable time to visit Buckingham Palace？
A. July. 18, 10:00 a.m. B. Aug. 23, 8:30 a.m.
C. Sep. 27, 3:00 p.m. D. Oct. 2, 7:30 p.m.
22. Which of the following makes the London Eye an attraction？
A. It spins very slowly. B. It is a centuries-old building.
C. It looks attractive on a clear day. D. It offers a chance to view places of interest.
23. What tip is given to visitors who want to drink afternoon tea？
A. Take it as a simple tea break. B. Bring along a complete set of china.
C. Don't eat too many sweet snacks. D. Don't have lunch before going to it.
B
I was eleven years old when I spotted my neighbour, Julie, working in her garden. “There’s a hedge（树篱）growing over the pathway near here,” Julie said. “It’s become so overgrown. I was planning to cut it back myself. Would you like to help out？” The following Sunday，we wheeled Julie's garden bin down to the hedge and reduced it.
We posted photos of our handiwork on Our Malmesbury, our local Facebook Group. One person，a wheelchair user，was so grateful that they didn't have to go on the road anymore to pass the hedge. The comments and reactions just kept on coming. The whole town of Malmesbury in Wiltshire seemed to welcome our team spirit and felt inspired to follow our lead. Many people raised their hands to volunteer and do more to keep our town tidy. This was the beginning of many community projects completed by volunteers in our community.
With many willing hands, great changes have taken place in our town. Before，the town looked a bit run-down, but now, the place looks cleaner and tidier.
When we first started, everything was done out of my parents' garage. But as time went on，donations came in from the local community. Our garage got filled up so quickly with brushes，gardening tools, and even donated power tools like leaf blowers. It got so big that we had to move this all to Julie's spare garage.
I created a Facebook page and website to support our projects. Our Facebook page ‘Helping the Community of Malmesbury’ currently sits at 669 members and is a place for all the locals to share what litter picking and cleaning up they have been up to. When community members plan a clean-up，they can contact us via the website to get any tools and equipment they need to complete a project.
24. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about？
A. Handiwork photos. B. Amazing reactions.
C. City clean-ups. D. Community projects.
25. What does the underlined phrase "run-down" in paragraph 3 probably mean？
A. Messy. B. Ordinary. C. Modern. D. Busy.
26. According to the passage, the author is an __________ student.
A. outgoing. B. honest. C. able. D. unusual.
27. What can we learn from the text？
A. It’s never too old to learn. B. Time and tide wait for no man.
C. God helps those who help themselves. D. Small efforts make a big difference.
C
By now, most people know they should be eating more vegetables. But are there ways to get more from the vegetables you already eat A research shows that when it comes to vegetables, it’s not only how much we eat, but also how we prepare them, that decides the vitamins(维生素) and other nutrients（营养物质） that enter our body.
Many studies show that people who eat lots of vegetables have less heart disease, and eye problems and even cancer. But raw(生的) vegetables are not always best. The researchers found that 198 Germans who eat raw food were short of lycopene, the matter found in tomatoes and other red vegetables. “There is an idea that raw foods are always going to be better,” says Steven K. Clinton, a professor at Ohio State University. “For fruits and vegetables, sometimes a little bit of cooking can be helpful.”
A number of factors（因素）decide how the vegetables do good to people’s health before they reach the table, including where and how they were grown and stored before being bought. No single cooking way is best. Some nutrients are easily lost in cooking if they are cooked in different ways.
Vitamins C and B are often lost. In January, another report said that boiling was better for carrots than frying or serving them raw. Frying was the worst way to cook.
What cooked with the vegetables can also be important. When the vegetables are cooked with fat, the diners can get more nutrients. Fat can also make the taste of vegetables better, meaning that people will eat more of them. Putting on some other things, like a little salt, can make the food taste better.
28．What does the writer mainly want to tell us
A．People should eat more vegetables. B．The way people eat vegetables is important.
C．Eating vegetables is good for us. D．Raw vegetables are the best.
29．The people who eat the raw vegetables for a long time will ________.
A．have the eyes problems B．have heart disease
C．be in need of lycopene D．hate eating tomatoes
30．Which of the following decides how the vegetables do good to people
A．The people who grow the vegetables. B．The way how the vegetables are stored.
C．The place where the vegetables are bought. D．The price at which the vegetables are sold.
31．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．It’s better to cook vegetables with fat.
B．The more fat in the cooking, the fewer vegetables people will eat.
C．It’s better to cook the vegetables without salt.
D．The fat will increase the nutrition of the vegetables.
D
As a young girl growing up in France，Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion(热爱) to help others was awakened when，from the age of nine，she went with her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children.
Toumi saw first-hand the effect of desertification (沙漠化). “Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off，and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert（撒哈拉沙漠）in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts（干旱）have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia's agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.
Toumi recognized that farming practice needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers plant sustainable(可持续发展的) crops，use new technologies for water treatment and focus on natural products and fertilizer（肥料）rather than chemicals.
In 2012，Toumi moved to Tunisia and set up a program named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming ideas into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the influence of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.”
By September 2016, more than 130,000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms，with farmers recording a 60 per cent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia's farmland. She expects to plant 1 million trees by 2018. In the next couple of years，Toumi hopes to bring the program to Algeria and Morocco.
32. How did Toumi’s holiday trip to Tunisia influence her？
A. It made her decide to leave the country.
B. It helped her better understand her father.
C. It fired her love for helping others.
D. It destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
33. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia's farmland？
A. Low rainfall. B. Soil pollution. C. Cold weather. D. Forest damage.
34. Why did Toumi set up Acacias for All in Tunisia？
A. To allow the children to get good education. B. To offer jobs to young people.
C. To advise the farmers not to use fertilizers. D. To help the protection of their farmland.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A. Saving Water in Tunisia. B. Planting Trees for Native Species.
C. Holding back the Sahara. D. Fighting Poverty(贫困) in North Africa.
