四、阅读理解

I.阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。（共15题，每题2分，计30分）

A

Early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps us to have good health. We all need fresh air. It makes our health better to take morning exercises. The air is never so fresh as early in the morning. Early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easy to learn something by heart. Early rising makes people able to plan the work for the day. We can’t work well without a good plan. Just as the plan for the year should be made in the spring, the plan

for a day should be made in the morning. Early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and eat our breakfast. So the popular saying says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy(富有的) and wise.”

( )51. What does “early rising” mean？It means _______ early in the morning.

A. waking up

B. getting up

C. having breakfast

D. making a day’s plan

( )52. Why does the passage advise us to take exercises early in the morning？

A. Because we can save much time.

B. Because we are not busy in the morning.

C. Because air in the morning is very fresh.

D. Because we don’t need to prepare for breakfast.

( )53. We can work well with _____.

A. enough time

B. a good reading

C. clean hands

D. a good plan

B

The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half

of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning（旋转）of the earth. At the equator（赤道）day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted（倾斜）toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere（半球）gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the

Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.

( )54. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ______ of the earth.

A. the pushing

B. the pulling

C. the spinning

D. the passing

( )55. At the equator day is as long as night ________.

A. sometimes

B. never

C. usually

D. always

( )56. When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere gets ______ sunlight.

A. less

B. more

C. all

D. no

C

Ⅱ. 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容完成相关任务。（共5题，每题2分，计10分）Eating habits are different in different countries. The Chinese have a saying “Eating good things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner.” Many Americans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.

Most Americans only give themselves a short time for lunch. So they eat a small lunch. After work they will have more time to eat a big dinner, also a quiet dinner at home with all the family talking about their day is a way to take a good rest after a long, hard day of work.

Eating at restaurants is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. Very often you can hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they are just having a good time. In America it is not like this. They want a quiet place where they can eat a good meal far away form the noises of the outside world.

Today, environment has become a serious problem, as students, we must take some actions to protect it.

We all think that we must take good care of our home, the earth, or the nature will punish the people’s faults, and we will have nothing to eat or use in the future, at last we will lose our lovely homeland.
