染雾天津市-学年高一上学期期中英语试卷 篇一
As a teacher, preparing mid-term exams is always a challenging task. It requires a careful balance of assessing students' understanding of the material taught so far while also challenging them to think critically and apply their knowledge. For this year's mid-term English exam for high school freshmen in Tianjin, I wanted to create a test that would not only test their grammar and vocabulary skills but also their ability to comprehend and analyze various texts.
The exam consisted of three sections: multiple choice questions, reading comprehension, and writing. The multiple-choice questions covered a range of grammar topics such as verb tenses, subject-verb agreement, and articles. I also included vocabulary questions that tested students' knowledge of synonyms, antonyms, and word meanings in context. The reading comprehension section included three passages of increasing difficulty, with questions that required students to identify main ideas, make inferences, and analyze the author's purpose. Finally, the writing section asked students to write a short essay on a given topic, demonstrating their ability to organize their thoughts and express themselves clearly in written English.
Overall, I was pleased with the performance of the students on the exam. Many of them demonstrated a solid understanding of the grammar and vocabulary concepts we had covered in class, and their reading comprehension skills were impressive. However, I also noticed some areas where students struggled, such as identifying main ideas in the reading passages and organizing their thoughts in the essay. This feedback will be valuable as I plan my lessons for the remainder of the semester, focusing on these areas to help students improve their English skills.
In conclusion, creating and administering the mid-term English exam for high school freshmen in Tianjin was a challenging but rewarding experience. I am confident that the exam provided valuable insight into the students' strengths and weaknesses, and I look forward to using this information to help them continue to grow and develop as English language learners.

The mid-term English exam for high school freshmen in Tianjin was a comprehensive assessment of the students' language skills and abilities. The exam was designed to test not only their knowledge of grammar and vocabulary but also their reading comprehension and writing skills. As a teacher, I believe that it is important to provide students with a variety of tasks that challenge them to think critically and apply what they have learned in new and meaningful ways.
One of the key goals of the exam was to assess the students' ability to understand and analyze written texts. The reading comprehension section included passages on a variety of topics, from science and technology to literature and culture. The questions required students to identify main ideas, make inferences, and evaluate the author's tone and purpose. By including a diverse range of texts and questions, I aimed to provide students with the opportunity to practice and improve their reading skills in a meaningful context.
Another important aspect of the exam was the writing section, which asked students to compose a short essay on a given topic. This task required students to organize their thoughts, develop a coherent argument, and express themselves clearly and persuasively in written English. By challenging students to write an essay, I hoped to help them develop their critical thinking and communication skills, which are essential for success both in school and in the future.
Overall, I was impressed with the students' performance on the exam. Many of them demonstrated a strong command of the English language, showing proficiency in grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, and writing. However, I also identified areas where students could improve, such as analyzing literary devices in the reading passages and developing more complex and nuanced arguments in their essays. This feedback will be invaluable as I continue to plan and implement lessons that address these areas of growth.
In conclusion, the mid-term English exam for high school freshmen in Tianjin was an important opportunity for students to demonstrate their language skills and abilities. By providing a variety of tasks that challenged students to think critically and apply their knowledge in new ways, the exam served as a valuable tool for assessing their progress and identifying areas for improvement. I look forward to using the insights gained from the exam to help students continue to grow and develop as English language learners.

三、阅读理解
??? Last night was the last game for my eight-year-old son’s soccer team. It was the final quarter. The score was two to one, my son’s team in the lead. Parents surrounded the playground, offering encouragement.
With less than ten seconds remaining, the ball suddenly rolled in front of my son’s teammate Mickey O’Donnel. With shouts of “Kick it!” echoing across the playground, Mickey turned around and gave it everything he had. All around me the crowd erupted (沸腾). O’Donnel had scored!
Then there was silence. Mickey had scored all right, but in the wrong goal, ending the game in a tie. For a moment there was a total hush. You see, Mickey has Down syndrome (唐氏综合症) and for him there is no such thing as a wrong goal. All goals were celebrated by a joyous hug from Mickey. He had even been known to hug the opposing players when they scored.
The silence was finally broken when Mickey, his face filled with joy, hugged my son tightly and shouted, “I scored! I scored. Everybody won! Everybody won!” For a moment I held my breath, not sure how my son would react. I need not have worried. I watched, through tears, as my son threw up his hand in the classic high-five salute and started chanting, “Way to go Mickey! Way to go Mickey!” Within moments both teams surrounded Mickey, joining in the chant and congratulating him on his goal.
Later that night, when my daughter asked who had won, I smiled as I replied. “It was a tie. Everybody won.”

??? I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.
I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, “I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this morning,” made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.
This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.
Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A’s on my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn’t enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.
Yet, now that I’m growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don’t have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.
We’re taught to read because it’s necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I’ve found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.
1.Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom’s hands?
A.She wanted mom to read the news to her.
B.She was anxious to know what had happened.
C.She couldn’t wait to tear the newspaper apart.

A.her unique way to locate herself
B.her eagerness to develop her reading ability
C.her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules
D.her growing desire to know the world around her
3.What was the author’s view on factual reading?
A.It would help her test-taking skills.
B.It would allow much room for free thinking.
C.It would provide true and objective information.
D.It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.

A.explore a fantasy land

??? Why do we dream? It’s a question researchers have been studying for years. Now new research suggests that some dreams may result from the brain’s effort to keep learning, even as we sleep.
In a study in Boston, 100 volunteers were trained for an hour on a maze (迷宫). They tried to find their way through the difficult puzzle as quickly as possible. Then half of the volunteers were allowed to sleep for 90 minutes. The other half stayed awake, reading or relaxing. The ones who slept were asked to describe their dreams when they woke up.
After the rest, the volunteers were asked again to solve the maze. Those who hadn’t slept showed no improvement or did even worse after the break. Sleepers who didn’t report any maze-related dreams did better but showed only a little improvement. However, 4 nap-takers who reported dreaming about maze showed a surprising improvement. They scored 10 times higher after sleeping and dreaming about the maze.
Even though the number of dreamers was small, the researchers noted that the gap in learning between the dreamers and the non-dreamers was so wide that the finding was significant.
The dreamers had all performed poorly on the test before dreaming about it. That suggests that struggling with a task might be the trigger that leads the sleeping brain to focus on it and work on how to deal with it.
“It’s almost as if your brain is going through everything that happened today,” Dr. Stickgold, a scientist at Harvard Medical School, said, “The things you are obsessed (着迷的) with are the ones that your brain forces you to continue to do with. ”
1.What’s the best title of the passage?
A.Learning while you dream.B.What dreams stand for.
C.Dream a good dream.D.Dreams and health.
2.What were the volunteers asked to do after the rest?
A.To work on a new maze.
B.To continue to do the maze.
C.To talk with each other about their dreams.
D.To tell what they thought about the maze.
3.According to the study, which group showed the greatest improvement?
A.Those who didn’t sleep.
B.Those who slept but didn’t dream.
C.Those who dreamed about the maze while sleeping.
D.Those who thought about the maze before falling asleep.
4.The underlined word “trigger” in paragraph 5 probably means ________.
A.chanceB.idea
C.wayD.cause
5.In which part of a newspaper would you most probably read this passage?
A.BusinessB.Science
C.EducationD.Life
