中考英语阅读每日一练《音乐与椅子》

中考英语阅读每日一练《音乐与椅子》Do you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”? It is easy to play and most people enjoy it. All you need are some chairs, some people and some way of making music. You may use a piano or any other musical instrument, if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. You can even use a radio.Put the chairs in a row. The chairs may be put in twos, back to back. A better way is to have the chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite direction to the chair next to it.The game is easy. When the music starts, the players walk round the chairs. Everyone goes in the same direction, of course, they should walk in time to the music. If the music is fast they should walk quickly. If the music is slow, they should walk slowly.The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. When the music stops, the players try to sit on the chairs. If a person cannot find a chair to sit on, he drops out. Then, before the music starts again, one chair must be taken away. When the music stops again, one more player will be out.At last, there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.根据以上短文内容,然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。

高级商务英语阅读材料每日一练实用一份高级商务英语阅读材料每日一练 1part 1Always obey your parents, when they are present. This is the best policy in the long run, because if you don't, they will make you. Most parents think they know better than you do, and you can generally make more by humoring that superstition than you can by acting on your own better judgment.Be respectful to your superiors, if you have any, also to strangers, and sometimes to others. If a person offends you, and you are in doubt as to whether it was intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measures; simply watch your chance and hit him with a brick. That will be sufficient. If you shall find that he had not intended any offense, e out frankly and confess yourself in the wrong when you struck him; acknowledge it like a man and say you didn't mean to. Yes, always avoid violence; in this age of charity and kindliness, the time has gone by for such things. Leave dynamite to the low and unrefined.Go to bed early, get up early- this is wise. Some authorities say get up with the sun; some say get up with one thing, others with another. But a lark is really the best thing to get up with. It gives you a splendid reputation with everybody to know that you get up with the lark; and if you get the right kind of lark, and work at him right, you can easily train him to get up at half past nine, every time―it's no trick at all.Now as to the matter of lying, you want to be very careful about lying; otherwise you are nearly sure to get caught. Once caught, you can never again be in the eyes to the good and the pure, what you were before. Many a young person has injured himself permanently through a single clumsy and ill finished lie, the result of carelessness born of plete training. Some authorities hold that the young out not to lie at all. That of course, is putting it rather stronger than necessary; still while I cannot go quite so far as that, I do maintain, and I believe I am right, that the young ought to be temperate in the use of this great art until practice and experience shall give them that confidence, elegance, and precision which alone can make the plishment graceful and profitable. Patience, diligence, painstaking attention to detail―these are requirements; these in time, will make thestudent perfect; upon these only, may he rely as the sure foundation for future eminence. Think what tedious years of study, thought, practice, experience, went to the equipment of that peerless old master who was able to impose upon the whole world the lofty and sounding maxim that “Truth is mighty and will pr evail"―the most majestic pound fracture of fact which any of woman born has yet achieved. For the history of our race, and each individual's experience, are sewn thick with evidences that a truth is not hard to kill, and that a lie well told is immortal. There is in Boston a monument of the man who discovered anesthesia; many people are aware, in these latter days, that that man didn't discover it at all, but stole the discovery from another man. Is this truth mighty, and will it prevail? Ah no, my hearers, the monument is made of hardy material, but the lie it tells will outlast it a million years. An awkward, feeble, leaky lie is a thing which you ought to make it your unceasing study to avoid; such a lie as that has no more real permanence than an average truth. Why, you might as well tell the truth at once and be done with it. A feeble, stupid, preposterous lie will not live two years―except it be a slander upon somebody. It is indestructible, then of course, but that is no merit of yours. A final word: begin your practice ofthis gracious and beautiful art early―begin now. If I had begun earlier, I could have learned how.part 2An old problem is getting new attention in the United States: bullying. Recent cases included the tragic case of a fifteen-year-old girl whose family moved from Ireland.Phoebe PrincePhoebe Prince hanged herself in Massachusetts in January following months of bullying. Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her. Officials have brought criminal charges against several teenagers.Judy Kuczynski is president of an anti-bullying group called Bully Police USA. Her daughter Tina was the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota.JUDY __KI: "Our daughter was a very outgoing child. She was a bubbly personality, very involved in all kinds of things, had lots of friends. And over a period of time her grades fell pletely. She started having health issues. She couldn't sleep. She wasn't eating. She had terrible stomach pains. She started clenching her jaw and grinding her teeth at night. Didn't want to go to school."Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time against the same person. It can involve physical violence. Or it canbe verbal __ for example, insults or threats.Spreading lies about someone or excluding a person from a group is known as social or relational bullying.And now there is cyberbullying, which uses the Internet, e-mail or text messages. It has easy appeal for the bully because it does not involve face-to-face contact and it can be done at any time.The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late nineteen seventies. The latest government study in the United States was released last year. It found that about one-third of students age twelve to eighteen were bullied at school.Examples included being made fun of, pushed, spit on, threatened or excluded from activities. Some students had their property damaged. About four percent reported being the victims of cyberbullying. The study took place in two thousand seven.Susan Swearer is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and co-director of the Bullying Research Network. She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and victims the help they need. Shesays bullying is connected to depression, anxiety and anti-social behavior, and bullies are often victims themselves.What can be done to prevent bullying? That will be our subject next week.。

定额市鞍钢阳光实验学校杭州外国语学校高考英语集训阅读理解每日一练13倒数第八周星期三AShort and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis Cricket—anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the object of jokes in school gym classes in England’s rural Devonshire.It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first the teen went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to cycle along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind building up his body, increasing his speed, strength and endurance. At age 18, he ran his first marathon.The following year, he met John Ridgway, who became famous in the 1960s for rowing an open boat across the Atlantic Ocean. Saunders was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’s school of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about the older man’s cold-water exploits(成就).Intrigued, Saunders read all he could about Arctic explorers and North Pole expeditions, then decided that this would be his future.Journeys to the Pole aren’t the usual holidays for British country boys, and many people dismissed his dream as fantasy. “John Ridgway was one of the few who didn’t say, ‘You are completely crazy,’” Saunders says.In 2001, after becoming a skilled skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition toward the North Pole. He suffered frostbite, had a closer encounter(遭遇) with a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit.Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pol e, and he’s skied more of the Arctic by himself than any other Briton. His old playmates would not believe the transformation.This October, Saunders, 27, heads south to explore from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, an 1800-mile journey that has never been completed on skis.1. The turning point in Saunders’life came when _____A. he started to play ball gamesB. he got a mountain bikeat age 15C. he ran his first marathon at ag e 18D. he started to receiveRidgway’s training2. We can learn from the text that Ridgway _______.A. dismissed Saunders’ dream as fantasyB. built up his body together with SaundersC. hired Saunders for his cold-water experienceD. won his fame for his voyage across the Atlantic3. What do we know about Saunders?A. He once worked at a school in Scotland.B. He followed Ridgway to explore the North Pole.C. He was chosen for the school sports team as a kid.D. He was the first Briton to ski alone to the North Pole.4. The underlined word “Intrigued” in the third paragraph probably means_____.A. ExcitedB. ConvincedC. DelightedD.Fascinated5. It can be inferred that Saunders’ journey to the North Pole ______.A. was accompanied by his old playmatesB. set a record in the NorthPole expeditionC. was supported by other Arctic explorersD. made him well-knownin the 1960sBThe “Bystander Apathy (漠不关心)Effect” was first studied by researchers in New York after neighbours ignored—and in some cases turned up the volume on their TVs—the cries of a woman as she was murdered (over a half-hour period). With regard to helping those in difficulty generally, they found that:(1) women are helped more than men;(2) men help more than women;(3) attractive women are helped more than unattractive women.Other factors relate to the number of people in the area, whether the person is thought to be in trouble through their own fault, and whether a person sees himself as being able to help.According to Adrian Furnham, Professor of University College, London, there are three reasons why we tend to stand by doing nothing:(1) “Shifting of responsibility”一the more people there are, the less likely help is to be given. Each person excuses himself by thinking someone else will help, so that the more “other people’ there are, the greater the total shifting of responsibility.(2) “'Fear of making a mistake'’一situations are often not clear. People think that those involved in an accident may know each other or it may be a joke, so a fear of embarrassment makes them keep themselves to themselves.(3) “Fear of the consequences if attention is turned on you and the person is violent.”Laurie Taylor, Professor of Sociology at London University, says: “In the experiments I’v e seen on intervention(介入), much depends on the neighborhood or setting. There is a silence on public transport which is hard to break. We are embarrassed to draw attention to something that is happening, while in a football match, people get involved, and a fight would easily follow. ”Psychotherapist Alan Dupuy identifies the importance of theindividual: “The British as a whole have some difficulty intervening, but there are exceptional individuals in every group who are prepared to intervene, regardless of their own safety: These would be people witha strong moral code or religious ideals.”6. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Pretty women are more likely to be helped.B. People on a bus are more likely to stop a crime.C. Religious people are more likely to look on.D. Criminals are more likely to harm women.7. Which factor is NOT related with intervention according to the passage?A. Sex.B. Nationality.C. Profession.D.Setting.8. Which phenomenon can be described as the “Bystander Apathy Effect”?A. When one is in trouble, people think it’s his own fault.B. In a football match, people get involved in a fight.C. Seeing a murder, people feel sorry that it should have happened.D. On hearing a cry for help, people keep themselves to themselves.9. The author wrote this article ______.A. to explain why bystanders behave as they doB. to urge people to stand out when in needC. to criticize the selfishness of bystandersD. to analyze the weakness of human natureC10.

The word dynamics means ______.A. difficultiesB. forces or influences thatcause changeC. largenessD. explosions so large that they ar ebeyond beliefDI tried not to be biased, but I had my doubts about hiring Stevie. His social worker assured me that he would be a good, reliable busboy. But I had never had a mentally handicapped employee. He was short, a little fat with the smooth facial features and thick-tongued speech of Down’s Syndrome(唐氏综合症). I thought most of my customers would be uncomfortable around Stevie so I closely watched him for the first few weeks.I shouldn't have worried. After the first week, Stevie had my staff wrapped around his fat little finger, and within a month my regular truck customers had adopted him as their official truck stop mascot(吉祥物). After that, I really didn't care what the rest of the customers thought of him. He was like a 21-year-old in blue jeans and Nikes, eager to laugh and eager to please, but fierce in his attention to his duties. Every salt and pepper shaker was exactly in its place, not a coffee spill was visible when Stevie got done with the table. Our only pro blem was persuading him to wait to clean a table until after the customers were finished.Over time, we learned that he lived with his mother, a widow who was disabled after repeated surgeries for cancer. Money was tight, and what I paid him was probably the difference between them being able to live together and Stevie being sent to a group home.That's why the restaurant was a gloomy place that morning last August, the first morning in three years that Stevie missed work. He was at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester getting a heart surgery. His social worker said that people with Down’s Syndrome often have heart problems at an early age so this wasn't unexpected, and there was a good chance he would come through the surgery in good shape and be back at work in a few months.A ripple of exci tement ran through the staff later that morning when word came that he was out of surgery, in recovery, and doing fine. Frannie, the head waitress, did a little dance when she heard the good news. BelleRinger, one of our regular trucker customers, stared at her and asked, "OK, Frannie, what was that all about?""We just got word that Stevie is out of surgery and going to be okay.""I was wondering where he was. I had a new joke to tell him. What was the surgery about?"Frannie quickly told Belle Ringer and the other two drivers about Stevie's surgery, then sighed: "Yeah, I'm glad he is going to be OK," she said. "But I don't know how he and his Mom are going to handle all the bills. From what I hear, they're barely getting by as it is." Belle Ringer nodded thoughtfully, and Frannie hurried off to wait on the rest of her tables.After the morning rush, Frannie walked into my office. She had a couple of paper napkins in her hand and a funny look on her face."What's up?" I asked."I cleared off that table where Belle Ringer and his friends were sitting after they left, and I found this was folded and put under a coffee cup."She handed the napkin to me, and three $20 bills fell onto my desk when I opened it. On the outside, in big, bold letters, was printed "Something For Stevie".That was three months ago. Today is Thanksgiving, the first day Stevie is supposed to be back to work. His social worker said he had been counting the days until the doctor said he could work. I arranged to have his mother bring him to work, met them in the parking lot and invited them both to celebrate his day back.I led them toward a large corner booth. I could feel and hear the rest of the staff following behind as we marched through the dining room. We stopped in front of the big table. Its surface was covered with coffee cups, and dinner plates, all sitting slightly bent on dozens of folded paper napkins."First thing you have to do, Stevie, is clean up this mess," I said.Stevie looked at me, and then at his mother, then pulled out one of the napkins. It had "Something for Stevie" printed on the outside. As he picked it up, two $10 bills fell onto the table. Stevie stared at the money, then at all the napkins peeking from beneath the tableware, each with his name printed on it.I turned to his mother. "There's more than $10,000 in cash and checks on that table, all from truckers and trucking companies that heard about your problems. "Happy Thanksgiving !"Well, it got really noisy about that time, with everybody hollering and shouting, and there were a few tears, as well. But you know what's funny?While everybody else was busy shaking hands and hugging each other, Stevie, with a big, big smile on his face, was busy clearing all the cupsand dishes from the table.15. Why did the author have doubts about hiring Stevie?A. Stevie was not that reliable.B. Stevie was mentallydisabled.C. Stevie was too short and fat.D. Stevie wasbad-tempered.16. According to the story, which of the following sentences is true?A. Stevie made customers uncomfortable.B. Stevie couldn’t fix his attention on his work.C. Stevie often spilled coffee out of cups.D. Stevie usually cleaned the table too early.17.

Why did Frannie sigh after she got word that Stevie would be OK ?A. She was worried that the owner would fire Stevie.B. She was worried about Stevie’s health.C. She was worried about Stevie’s finance problem.D. She was worried that no one would help Stevie.19. Why did the author ask Stevie to clean up the mess on the table after he returned?A. It was Stevie’s duty to clean the table.B. The table was so dirty that it needed cleaning.C. Stevie would find the money that was given to him.D. She wanted to congratulate Stevie on his coming back.20.

英语阅读真题每日一练英语阅读真题每日一练Assertiveness is the ability to confidently express your opinions, feelings, attitudes, and rights, in a way that doesn?t infringe(侵犯) the rights of others.Many of us are taught that it is not nice to consider our own needs above those of others. If someone says or does something that we don?t like, we should just be quiet and try to stay away from that person in the future.Why is Assertiveness important?If you don?t know how to be assertive, you might experience: Depression - Anger, a sense of being helpless, hopeless, or of having no control over your life. oResentment - Anger at others for taking advantage of you. oFrustration - Why did I allow that to happen?Most people find it easier to be assertive in some situations than in others. This makes perfect sense. It?s a lot easier to hold your ground with a stranger than with someone you love. But the more important the relationship is to you, the more important it is to be assertive. Assertive behavior leads to increased respect from others!But before you decide to act assertively, you have to decide if you can live with the results. Although assertive behavior usually will result in a positive response (积极的回应),some people might react differently.How to be effectively(有效地) assertive: oUse "I" statements. Keep the focus on the problem you?re having. "I?d like to be able to tell my stories without interruption." instead of "You?re always interrupting my stories ! "Use facts, not opinions. "Did you know that shirt has a hole?" instead of "You?re not going out looking like THAT, are you?" oExpress ownership of your thoughts, feelings, and opinions. "I get angry when he breaks his promises. " instead of "He makes me angry.Make clear and direct requirements. Don?t invite the person to say no. "Will you please?" instead of "Would you mind...?" or "Why don?t you...?" oKeep repeating your point. Use a low level and pleasant voice. Don?t try to explain yourself.1. The writer probably agrees that____________.A. you should consider others? response before you act assertivelyB. you should be assertive if you want to get good marksC. assertiveness is the ability to infringe others? rightsD. assertive behavior will bring you bad feelings2. The expression "hold yourground" probably means "_________________"A. reach an agreementB. insist on your pointC. keep your wordD. keep on fighting3.

It provides a coordinated program of investment credits, research grants, education reforms, and tax changes designed to make American industry more competitive. This is necessary to reverse the economic slide into unemployment, lack of growth, and trade deficits that have plagued the economy for the past six years.T he most liberal wing of the President’s party has called for stronger and more direct action. They want an incomes policy to check inflation while federal financing helps rebuild industry behind a wall of protective tariffs.The Republicans, however, decry even the modest, graduated tax increases in the President’s program. They want tax cuts and more open market. They say if federal money has to be injected into the economy, let it through defence spending.Both these alternatives ignore the unique nature of the economic problem before us. It is not simply a matter of markets or financing. The new technology allows vastly increased production for those able to master it. But it also threatens those who fail to adopt it with permanent second-class citizenship in the world economy. If an industrycannot lever itself up to the leading stage of technological advances, then it will not be able to compete effectively. If it cannot do this, no amount of government protectionism or access to foreign markets can keep it profitable for long. Without the profits and experience of technological excellence to reinvest, that industry can only fall still further behind its foreign competitors.So the crux is the technology and that is where the President’s program focused. The danger is not that a plan will not be passed, it is that the ideologues of right and left will distort the bill with amendments that will blur its focus on technology. The economic restructuring plan should be passed intact. If we fail to restructure our economy now, we may not get a second chance.1.
