台州2024-2025学年第一学期期末教学质量检测试题(卷)初一英语

1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

The coldest and most difficult place in the world to live is Antarctica(南极洲). It is the land of snow and ice near the South Pole(南极). Most people do not think there is much life in the icy waters around it. They are wrong. Actually, there are more than one hundred different kinds of animals there. The most famous animal of Antarctica is the penguin(企鹅). 1. Halley Bay(哈雷湾) was the world’s second largest home for penguins.

However, 2. 企鹅现在处于极大危险中。 Recently, scientists found that the number of penguins has dropped quickly. One of the main reasons is that many storms hit Halley Bay. 3. Thousands of baby penguins died from the terrible weather.

Scientists feel worried about this. Halley Bay used to be a safe place for penguins but now it isn’t. Luckily, another home of penguins has gotten much bigger. 4. 为了保持安全，许多企鹅已经搬到那里了。 Although penguins may have greater chance to keep alive, they are still facing the danger of dying out. 5. Unless we do something, they won’t have anywhere to go one day.

22、

One morning, I was driving my father to the airport when a plane flew silently over the road like a big bird, about to touch down at the airport.

"It's magic (魔法)." my father said. I looked at him, without knowing what was happening.

He was a doctor who gave speeches at colleges and had visited more than 100 countries. He understood better than I why a plane can fly in the sky. It, really, wasn't magic.

But now, I know he was at least right in some way.

Flying might not be magic, but it's certainly magical. What it brings to our lives is something found in our dreams.

But too often, we, especially (尤其) I forget. I read a sentence a few months ago. It said, " You know you're growing-up when you no longer want a window seat."

Too often in these years, I've asked for a seat near the exit row, forgetting the wonder (奇观) of travelling fast. But sometimes, when the Wi-Fi's not working or my computer has no power, I remember to look.

I think of one time when I was leaving on a family vacation. Moments after take-off, I started working. But a passenger (乘客) behind me wouldn't stop talking. "The clouds!" he kept saying. Look at the clouds!

I turned around,and saw two men,one seemed to be in his seventies and the other much younger. The chat went on for 20 minutes until,not patiently,I raised my eyes from my computer screen and looked out of the window.

The clouds!

He was right. We were floating through big soft balls of cotton, each in different shapes. They seemed close enough to touch. The afternoon sun provided all kinds of colours, all against a blue sky. I put away my computer and enjoy them for the rest of the flight.

I don't remember the work I felt like I had to complete that afternoon. I've never forgotten those clouds.

【1】Why did the writer's father say "It's magic." ?

A.He was excited by what he saw.

B.He seldom saw planes flying.

C.He was wondering how it happened.

D.He was joking with his son.

【2】How did the writer feel when he listened to the chat for 20 minutes?

A.Unhappy. B.Excited C.Interested. D.Nervous

【3】The writer wrote this article to   .

A.tell readers how planes fly in the air

B.advise readers to look up at planes from time to time

C.tell readers to enjoy the beauty around them

D.show views from planes are better than that on the ground

【4】Which of the following is probably the best title for the passage?

A.Is It a Wonder? B.Is It Magic?

C.What Soft Clouds! D.What a Strange Flight!

23、   To love, to enjoy and to learn English was the theme(主题)of English Week this year. In order to improve to students' interest in learning English, different activities came out during the week.

24、任务型阅读

Hey! Mother's Day is coming. Have you planned something good for your mom? If not, try one of these tips.

What's Her Favorite?

Most teens don't know what their mom's favorite is. You do? Then, what are you waiting for? Buy her something she likes and wrap it carefully. The best time to give her that is while she is sleeping at night. Put it on the drawer next to her so that when she wakes up, she'll be surprised to see it.

Treat a Queen

Your house is a palace with a king and queen (it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor). Our mother is the real queen in our life and in our family, though her duties make her look like she is not. Give the lady a day off and you can do the housework.

Because of stress and the problems that she is facing right now, she doesn't look good any more. Perhaps you could take some of your savings to treat her in a salon or the department store. Then, choose nice clothes that would make her look beautiful!

Have Some of Your Time

Our mothers have special memories in mind. It is the time that they gave birth to their healthy baby. How about you? What's your best moment with her? Have you ever had a good time with your mother not talking about your problems? Have you ever told her how much you thank her for the life she gave to you, the time she cared for you? Maybe you can tell her how happy you are when she was there looking after you during your painful days in your life.

Tell the magic words

Life is short. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. Those three words can make her heart jump for happiness, you know? Just tell her “I love you!” and it would make her smile so sweetly. Just try! We don't want to miss a thing, right?
