Upon seeing the food, I knew who had sent it. My face burning with shame, I took the box inside with care. Packed in the box were some sandwiches, a bottle of milk and some fruit. I picked up the note, on which some words were carefully written, “Sorry, I can only get you these. Hope you like them. I will always pray for you.” The moment I finished reading the note, tears rolled down my face. How could I lie to a person with such a gentle heart I knew it was time to make up for my mistake.The next evening, with a big apple pie made by myself, I stood at the doorstep of Bob’s house. Having gathered up my courage, I knocked on the door. Bob seemed to be a little surprised when he saw me outside. He explained that it was no big deal and that I needn’t have come to thank him. I lowered my head, apologizing to him for my silly behavior. To my surprise, he just smiled and patted me on the shoulder, saying, “It’s OK. Now shall we take a bite of this yummy apple pie ” I raised my head and nodded with tears of joy. Thanks to Bob, I have learned the magic power of kindness.A篇 这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四种免费且适合儿童阅读的电子杂志。21．细节理解题。根据Animal Wellness Magazine部分“If your child loves animals, a free copy may provide him or her with hours of educational entertainment.

D。until two o’clock in the morning暗示该空表示“持续”，因此应填lasted。42. B。由常识可知，凌晨两点街上行人稀少，店铺也未开门，非常安静，因此该空应填quiet。43. C。突然从一幢黑房子的后面一个右手拿着一把锋利刀子的高个子男子朝她冲了过去。44. A。由第1空后面的two o’clock in the morning可以推出该空应填morning。45. A。由语境逻辑可知，抢劫犯手里拿着一把锋利的刀子是想以被抢者不听话就将其杀死为威胁进行抢劫，因此该空应填die。46. D。由下文Agatha的机智行为可以推出她想出的是一个聪明的主意，因此该空应填bright。47. C。此处指两只手中的另一只手，因此该空应填the other。48. B。quickly与on the ground暗示该空表示“扔”，因此应填threw。49. B。由第6空后面的tried to cover her necklace with the collar of her overcoat可以推出该空表示“保留”，因此应填keep。50. C。抢劫犯认为Agatha想留下项链说明其值钱更多，因此该空应填more。51. D。由It与much之间的逻辑关系可以推出该空表示“值”，因此应填cost。spend和charge的主语都是人。52. C。根据文意是：我可没那么傻。53. A。Agatha假装用颤抖的双手摘下了项链。54. D。抢劫犯一离开，她拾起耳环，尽可能快地跑向一个朋友。55. C。此处强调项链值钱少，因此应填only。写作：66、应用文评分原则: 本题总分为 15 分，按五个档次进行评分。第五档:(13--15分)覆盖了所有内容要点，表达清楚合理;使用了恰当且多样的词汇和语法结构，可能有个别小错，但不完全影响理解;3）有效使用了语句间衔接手段，全文结构清晰，意义连贯，完全达到了预期的写作目的。第四档:(10-12分)1）覆盖了所有内容要点，表达比较清楚合理;2）使用了比较恰当且多样的词汇和语法结构，可能有些许错误，但不影响理解；3）比较有效地使用了语句间衔接手段，全文结构比较清晰，意义比较连贯，达到了预期的写作目的。第三档:(7-9分)覆盖了大部分内容要点，有个别地方表述不够清楚合理;使用了简单的词汇和语法结构，有一些错误或不恰当之处，但基本不影响理解；基本有效地使用了语句间衔接手段，全文结构基本清晰，意义基本连贯，基本达到了预期的写作目的。第二档:(4--6分)遗漏或未清楚表述一些内容要点，或一些内容与写作目的不相；。所使用的词汇有限，语法结构单调，错误较多，影响理解；几乎不能有效地使用语句间衔接手段，全文结构不够清晰，意义不够连贯，未能达到预期的写作目的。第一档:(1--3分)遗漏或未清楚表述大部分的内容要点，或大部分内容与写作目的不相关；所使用的词汇有限，语法结构单调，错误较多，严重影响理解；几乎没有使用语句间衔接手段，全文结构不清晰，意义不连贯，完全未达到预期的写作目的。零分：未作答；所写的内容太少或无法看清以致无法评判；所写内容与题目要求完全不相关；非英语。67、读后续写评分原则：本题总分为 25 分，按五个档次进行评分。第五档(21~25分) 完全完成了试题规定的任务。1.创造了丰富合理的内容，富有逻辑性，续写完整，与原文情景融洽度高；2.使用了恰当且多样的词汇和语法结构，可能有个别小错，但完全不影响理解；3.有效地使用了语句间的衔接手段，全文结构清晰，意义连贯。第四档(16~20分) 完成了试题规定的任务。1.创造了比较丰富合理的内容，比较有逻辑性，续写比较完整，与原文情景融洽度比较高；2.使用了比较恰当且多样的词汇和语法结构，可能有些错误，但不影响理解；3.比较有效地使用了语句间的衔接手段，全文结构比较清晰，意义比较连贯。第三档(11~15分) 基本完成了试题规定的任务。1.创造了基本合理的内容，有一定的逻辑性，续写基本完整，与原文情景相关；2.使用了简单的词汇和语法结构，有一些错误或不恰当之处，但基本不影响理解；3.基本有效地使用了语句间的衔接手段，全文结构基本清晰，意义基本连贯。第二档(6~10分) 未恰当完成试题规定的任务。内容或逻辑上有一些重大问题，续写不够完整，与原文情景有一定程度脱节；2.使用的词汇有限，语法结构单调，错误较多，影响理解；3.未能有效地使用语句间的衔接手段，全文结构不够清晰，意义不够连贯。第一档(1~5分) 未完成试题规定的任务。内容或逻辑上有较多重大问题，或有部分抄自原文，续写不完整，与原文情景融洽度基本脱节；2.使用的词汇有限，语法结构单调，错误很多，严重影响理解；3.几乎没有使用语句间的衔接手段，全文结构不清晰，意义不连贯；零分：未作答；所写的内容太少或无法看清以致无法评判；所写内容全部抄自原文，或与题目要求完全不相关；非英语。附听力材料：Text 1M: Is there anything that you like doing W:Well, I love reading very much.

But I’m lucky because I have taken some photos from the roof of a friend's house in the center of the city. In the photos you can see high buildings, but the sky looks rather foggy.I also enjoy walking on the snow. Some people are a bit scared but I love it. Naturally you need to wear the right shoes.Let’s hope that the snow will bring us good luck!Yours,LisaA9高中联盟2023年秋季期中联考高二英语试卷试卷满分：150分第一部分听力（共两节，满分 30 分）第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分)听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。1.

If you are outside, stay away from buildings and power lines (输电线).Stay under a desk, table, or other strong furniture. Hold on to it. Or stay in a corner of the building. Cover your face and head with your arms and cover your mouth with a towel or clothing. Stay inside until shaking stops and it is safe to go outside.Keep away from windows, pictures or advertisements on the wall or the building, and anything else that could fall and hurt you. Most people get injured by falling things during an earthquake, not by the shaking itself.Also keep away from a fire. You could fall down and burn yourself on the fire.If you are driving when an earthquake happens, stop the car if it’s safe. Stay inside your car until the earthquake stops, and don’t drive near bridges. Try not to stop by power lines or trees. These could fall and hurt you.24.

In the videos, they jumped off the Shizilin Bridge into the 7--meter--deep Haihe River. However, on Wednesday, they announced that they would give up the sport.With an average age of 60, the diving grandpas have much experience in diving. They started as a group of local diving lovers. They went swimming in the city’s rivers, and later they tried their hand at diving. The hobby has now lasted for more than thirty years.Videos on the Internet have drawn lots of tourists from across the country to the Shizilin Bridge over the Haihe River, where “diving grandpas” perform diving. However, some inexperienced divers, trying to follow “diving grandpas”, have met with accidents and got themselves injured. Some of the grandpas have begun volunteering to keep order for the crowds that come to see the performance on the bridge. However, accidents still continued to happen. As reported, members of the Blue Sky Rescue team in Tianjin said that they rescued 14 people at the risk of drowning or other injury in just two days.The grandpas then made a difficult decision. They stopped diving off the bridge. They also prevented inexperienced locals and children as well as tourists from diving from the bridge . The grandpas welcomed the tourists to Tianjin, especially pointing out the other great places of interest and delicious food around the Shizilin Bridge.What can we learn from Paragraph 2 The diving grandpas made a living by diving.The diving grandpas came from all over China.The diving grandpas made diving a life-long hobby.The diving grandpas began diving when they were little.What made the diving grandpas decide to stop diving off the bridge The weather became colder.They were too old to carry out the task.The bridge was too crowded with tourists.They hoped to prevent accidents from happening.Which of the following can best describe “diving grandpas” in Tianjin Kind and honest.B.

It’s natural to wonder what was used before modern toilet paper. Toilet paper in its ancient form dates back to China in at least the 6th century. Although paper itself appeared long before that time.In ancient times, many kinds of materials (材料) were used instead of toilet paper. For example, sand was used by people who settled near the desert(沙漠); grass was used by people living in the grassland. Some other things known to have been used included: fur, leaves, rocks, snow, and so on. Of course, it wasn’t uncommon for people to go to the bathroom in a small river.They might have used a cloth or their hands to clean themselves afterward. For many people, that might have been preferable to the method used by ancient Romans: a sponge(海绵)on a stick kept in saltwater...and shared by everyone using public bathrooms.Luckily for us, Joseph Gayetty created the first toilet paper in 1857. His “Gayetty’s Medicated Paper” didn’t become popular soon, however, since the public was used to using materials they got for free rather than spending money on toilet paper. The rolled toilet paper we’re familiar with today appeared in the 1880s. It wasn’t necessarily soft like we’re now used to, though. Paper production methods would often leave splinters (刺) in toilet paper. It wasn’t until 1935 that Northern Tissue said they had made “splinter- free” toilet paper.Other improvements in toilet paper happened over the course of the 20th Century. Larger rolls with softer paper became more popular. Today, take a trip to your local supermarket and you will find many different kinds of toilet paper. For such a widely-used, necessary invention, it isn’t given much thought...until it runs out!32．What might decide which material ancient people used after using the bathroom A．What they did.B．Where they lived.C．How old they were.D．How long they used the bathroom.33．Why was Gayetty’s Medicated Paper unpopular at first A．Because the paper had splinters.B．Because the paper couldn’t be shared.C．Because people didn’t want to pay for it.D．Because people preferred rolled toilet paper.34．How does the text mainly develop A．By providing examples.B．By making comparisons.C．By telling an interesting story.D．By following the order of time.35．What would be the best title for the text A．A great invention--toilet paperB．Why was toilet paper invented C．Toilet paper vs water: which to choose.D．What did people use before toilet paper 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Fear is a powerful feeling. We hope we can improve our kids with courage in the face of fear. We have to know how to help kids not be afraid. 36 .Pay attention to their fears.Being afraid is one thing, but there’s nothing worse than being afraid and no one notices the kids’ fears. 37 . At the same time, come beside them in dealing with fears.Never laugh at them.Laughing at your kids when they share what they are afraid of can make them feel small and afraid. 38 , it doesn’t mean it’s silly to them. You’re an adult, so you’ve learned to deal with silly things But your kids haven’t.Solve their problems together.When your kids are afraid, you’ve probably realized the worst thing you can do is to force them to face their fears alone. That’s not what great parents do for their kids.

Sometimes, it is hard to admit them. However, there is a magic power in this world that can give us the courage to do so.I grew up in a small town in Ohio. There was a man in town that everyone seemed to know. We all called him Bob. Bob was uneducated. It seemed that because he was good-natured and not very smart, every one teased（戏弄）him.One day when I was sitting on the porch, he came walking by. I was about 12 years old and thought it would make me feel grown up to tease him like some adults did in the town.He asked how I was doing. I told him that my father had lost his job, and that we were short of money. I could see my friends laughing in the background so 1 went on with the lie. I had him fooled so completely that every time he asked me a question, I would make the situation seem worse and worse. I knew he made a meager (贫困的) living doing odd jobs, so it seemed funny when he asked me if we needed anything. I told him that we didn’t know if we would have enough to eat. He replied, “You poor thing. I will pray for you.”That night I heard the door rattle (沙沙响) softly. I thought it was the wind beating against the door. So I didn’t pay much attention to it. Later when I opened the door to go outside, I realized it wasn’t wind.注意： l . 续写词数应为 150 词左右；2. 请按如下格式作答。On the doorstep, I found a box of food with a note beside it.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________The next evening, with a big apple pie made by myself, I stood at the doorstep of Bob’s house.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 A9高中联盟2023年秋季期中联考英语听力.mp3 A9高中联盟2023年秋季期中联考英语答案.docx A9高中联盟2023年秋季期中联考英语试卷.docx
