河北石家庄五校联合体高三上第一次月考英语试卷

Are you learning a foreign 1anguage? Do you find it challenging to learn a foreign language? However，there are a few tips you can use in order to earn a top grade--as well as actually use the skills you've learned．
One of the most important and basic lessons in dealing with a foreign language is to learn and understand each concept and lesson before moving on to the next one．If you don’t understand one concept but move on to the next chapter anyway，you're less likely to understand the new material．
Learning a new language is not only an academic tool，but can help you in your everyday life as well．Being good at another language can help you communicate with other people，aid you when traveling to foreign countries，and even make your resume look better．
And it is important to learn correct pronunciation as soon as possible for poor pronunciation can be hard to break．Native speakers of the language as well as others fluent in the language you are 1earning will appreciate your efforts to learn correct pronunciation．
Gather outside materials such as books，study guides，books on tape，and travel books to aid you in learning the language．Your textbooks can't possibly teach you everything you need to know，so seeking out—side sources is generally a good rule of thumb to keep in mind．
A significant motivator in learning a foreign language is traveling to the country where the language is spoken．That way，you can see firsthand how the language is used，learn the culture，and meet native speakers of the language．Native speakers appreciate sincere attempts of others who take the time to learn their language．
Seek out native speakers of your new language in your school or neighborhood．They can help you with many skills，including pronunciation，and they can provide immediate feedback on your progress．

What's the best subtitle of Paragraph 3?

We can learn from the passage that __________.

Each of us can live strong，healthy，energetic lives for a long time to come．The key？Actually，there are many of them．
Eat fewer calories，but more food
Slimming down can help prevent disease，and cutting way back on the amount you eat may even slow the aging process．When nutrition researchers invited themselves over for dinner in kitchens across the globe-from Greece to Japan to the state of Pennsylvania--they discovered a stomach-satisfying secret to good health：Pile your plate high with vegetables and fruits，add respectable parts of beans and whole grains，and ignore high-calorie food like cheeseburgers，cream sauces，and fatty meats．
Use exercise as an anti-aging vaccine
Exercise can help you gain a better quality of life as you age．It's no secret that physical activity strengthens muscles，burn calories，and puts a happy bounce in your step．But recently，researchers discovered a new，extra benefit：Exercise acts as a powerful way against the aging process itself. When exercise physiologists put healthy people aged 60 to 85 on Weight-training programs for six months then tested them for signs of free-radical(自由基) damage，they were surprised by the results．By the end of the study，low-intensity exercisers had a drop in free-radical damage，while high-intensity exercisers had a slight increase．
Find something interesting to do
Life is always busy no matter what your age．But the truth is，when people are retired，time usually does become more available for adults after 60．With this time come choices．The easy one is merely to relax：watch more TV，eat out more often，talk on the phone as much as you want．The better choice? Discover something more meaningful to devote yourself to and do it wholeheartedly．
Which of the following is what you should eat more?

The new discovery of exercise probably is that__________．

Students wearing uniforms will feel less pressure about what to wear or not to wear when their classmates are dressed similarly．Getting dressed before school becomes less of a chore(琐事) when students are limited in their choices，so there shouldn’t be any trouble about choosing an outfit the day and getting ready quickly．Some students may not like the lack of individuality(个性) with a uniform，but some school dress code policies may offer them the opportunities to show their unique styles．
Uniforms today are also becoming trendier and can be seen in many areas of pop culture．Celebrities(名人)and fashion designers are using uniforms as inspiration for new looks which also appeal to students．

A book review tells not only what a book is about, but also how successful it is at what it is trying to do. Professors often assign (布置) book reviews as practice in careful analytical (分析的) reading.
As a reviewer, you bring together the two parts of accurate, analytical reading and strong, personal response when you indicate what the book is about and what it might mean to a reader. In other words, reviewers answer not only the WHAT but the SO WHAT question about a book. Thus, in writing a review, you combine the skills of describing what is on the page，analyzing how the book tried to achieve its purpose, and expressing your own reactions.
Most book reviews start with a heading that includes all the basic information about the book, like:
Title.
Author.
Place of publication, publisher, date of publication.
Number of pages.
The review usually begins with an introduction that lets your readers know what the review will say. The first paragraph usually includes the author and title again, so your readers don't have to look up to find this information. You should also include a very brief description of the contents of the book, the purpose or audience for the book, and your reaction and evaluation.
Then you move into a section of background information that helps place the book in context and discusses how to judge the book. Next, you should give a summary of the main points, quoting (引用) and explaining key phrases from the author. Finally, you get to the heart of your review -- your evaluation of the book. In this section, you might discuss some of the following issues:
·How well the book has achieved its goal.
·What possibilities are suggested by the book.
·What the book has left out.
·How the book compares with others on the subject.
·What personal experiences you've had related to the subject.
It is important to use labels (标签) to carefully distinguish your views from the author's, so that you don't confuse your readers.
Then, like other essays, you can end with a direct comment on the book, and tie together issues raised in the review in a conclusion.
There is, of course, no set form, but a general rule is that the first one-half to two-thirds of the review should summarize the author's main ideas and at least one-third should evaluate the book.
According to the text, personal response of a book reviewer refers to _______.

What is the most important part of a book review?

Readers will get puzzled if __________.

What is suggested for a book review in this text?

A few years ago my husband，my son and I were traveling to visit my cousins. It was about two or three in the morning，when it became clear that we were lost. The country      seemed to be going on forever, and the farther we traveled, the worse it seemed to get.
Finally we       a truck stop. So we pulled in and I got out of the car for       "Does anybody here know how to find Merridale Road?" I asked.
A very tired waitress looked up and said, "Lady, I haven't got a clue."
Since she was not         , I looked around at the customers．There，sitting nearby, were four of the toughest men I had ever seen in my life. Chains．Black leather. Skulls and crossbones (骷髅).
I immediately thought of my         in the car and what these characters might do to us.
"We know       you're going," one of them said cheerfully. "Not only that，but we'll take you there."
        I could say no, they got up, paid their bill, and were outside on their motorcycles，gesturing,“        us!”
We started to follow them down the dark and quiet country roads. After a few minutes, my son decided it was all         for us. "They're taking us to a       place, and that will be the end," he said           . "I'm never going to see my school or my friends again. How         you do this to me?"
I whispered to my husband，"I don't want to scare Jack, but he's right. I am a bit         . It's dark. The road is getting very lonely. And these people are tough. Maybe I did the       thing."
"No kidding," he replied. "We're just going to have to trust that it's going to be all right."
About an hour later, after         through endless back roads deep in the woods，they       to us to go left. We looked up, and there was the       for Merridale Road. They had put us on the right road after all. And then they         good-bye and disappeared from view. If I've learned anything on this
        journey of mine, it's that around every bend in the road, and at the end of even the darkest tunnel, there's likely to be a company of       .

  There was a woman who went to the airport    (hurry).She was so absorbed    her own thoughts that she was not aware they were going on a different route．Suddenly，a man went inside the cab and took her handbag   she placed her visa，passport，and all her money for the trip．She kept on thinking how unlucky she was to be in that situation．That very same night，she heard a piece of    (shock) news．Flight 230 crashed！It was the plane that she was supposed to board into.     she had not lost her precious belongings，she could have lost something far     important--her life！

If you failed in the exams，maybe you'd be more successful and much happier in    field. If you were rejected by your friend，there are plenty of others out there who are much more deserving of(值得的) your love and affection．Don't waste your time and  energy     things that can't be changed．

Of all my teachers, Mr Moore is the one who impress me most. He is 34, so he looks young for his age. And he's one of the most popular teacher in our school. Mr Moore pays more attention to his way of teaching, comparing with other teachers.
He tries different ways to make his classes actively and lively. On his opinion, we should not only know "what", but understand "why". So, instead giving us answers immediately, he encourages us to think by myself whenever he puts forward questions. With his help, we've learned from how to settle problems. He leads us to such a wonderful world of "why" as we all admire and respect him.
