Some pieces of ice are huge, like moving islands. As temperatures have increased, however, some of the ice has begun to disappear. Scientists have discovered hugewaves（海浪）in the arctic waters.The waves were discovered by accident in May, 2010. Scientist Aleksey Marchenko and his students set outon a trip. They wanted to study the icy waters.On May 2, the ship traveled east and stopped next to a large chunk of ice around 50 miles from the smallisland of Hopen. Marchenko prepared to lead his students out onto the Ice."We were ready to go but when I went out, I discovered many cracks（裂缝）around," he remembers.He decided to move the ship deeper into the ice to keep safe. The farther in they went, he thought, the harderthe ice would become. As they pushed forward, however, the ship experienced small waves, and then bigger ones.Soon, the waves broke up the ice around the ship into thousands of smaller pieces．Within an hour, Marchenko and his team saw a wave that was about 13 feet high. The ship's navigation（航行）system finally recorded the largest waves. They were more than 20 feet in height. The waves were so strong thatthey forced huge pieces of ice to jump up and down, breaking the ice into smaller pieces within just one hour.Scientists had never imagined that the process could happen so fast. The waves in these areas used to be small.The speed and force of the huge waves there makes it impossible to know in advance when they are coming.That could be dangerous for navigators and local communities who are unprepared for huge waves or depend onsea ice to protect them. Wildlife like polar bears and walruses that depend on sea ice to live is also in danger.Some scientists think people will soon see even bigger waves in these icy waters. As waves break up ice, theseas will become more open, and the waves will get even stronger. There are stormy times ahead.34. When did Marchenko and his students discover huge waves in the arctic waters?35. Why did Marchenko and his students set out on the trip?36. What did Marchenko decide to do to keep safe?37. How high were the largest waves recorded by the navigation system?38. What is Paragraph 7 mainly about?Passage 3（2019 ?安徽省）阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题后面的词数要求）。
Remember when you were a little child trying to learn to walk?First, you had to learn how to balance (平衡) yourself and stand. You fell down, and then got back up.

It was a happy time—you did it!Now the next step—walking. You'd seen others do it. It didn't look that hard—just move your legs while you were standing. Wrong—more difficult than you ever imagined. But after you tried again and again and again, you understood how to walk.If people found you walking, they cheered, "Oh, look at what the kid is doing." This encouraged you! But look back on those days when you were the little child—how many times did you try when no one was watching, or when no one was cheering?

And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing.

He and his group, World Access for the Blind, teach others how to use sonar. In this interview with National Geographic, Kish explains how the process works.How does sonar work?＂When I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images(图像). It’s like having a conversation with the environmentWhen you click, what do you see in your mind?"Each click is like a camera flash. I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction.＂What is it like riding a bike using sonar?＂It’s exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus. I click up to two times per second,, much more than I usually do.＂Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way?"Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine. I have a habit of climbing anything and everything, but I never broke a bone(骨头) as a kid.＂How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar?＂Many students are surprised how quickly results come.

No one without a pilot’s license should be allowed to have one.Something bad or unexpected can happen when people send up a self-controlled flying machine like a drone without knowing how to really control it. Drones can become flyaways, and can be caught up on a jet stream (喷气流) and blown away. A falling drone can do much damage (损害) to buildings and people.Though drones can be harmful, they can be very helpful. At a sports event, drones can be used to give the spectators (观众) a view from above or help coaches see how their players are doing. They are also becoming a useful tool for firefighters, helping them find and fight wildfires. Drones can watch secretly on populations of animals in the wild, especially endangered ones. In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people who are in great need of it.Some people think drones can only be used by governments to help when needed. Others think that if rules are obeyed, there should be little risk to people and property (财产).

Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes.

They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to s chool.

2019年中考英语真题 分类 专题17.3 任务型阅读(完成句子或表格)(第02期)(解析版)
2019年中考真题英语分项汇编专题17 任务型阅读考点3 完成句子或表格Passage 1（2019 •成都）In 30 years from now, what will we eat? Will the food still be the same as it is now?The United Nations says that there will be over 9 billion people in the world by 2050. Our food needs will grow by 70%. What we eat now may not be enough for humans in the future. That is to say, we’ll have to turn to something else. But what else can we eat? Here are a few possible choices.Veggie (V egetable) meatA new kind of hamburger is now popular in the US. It looks the same as any other hamburger, and so is the taste. But it’s actually a “beef” burger made out of plants. The company behind the burger, Impossible Foods, uses peas and potatoes to make the “beef”. They take coloring, protein (蛋白质) and fats from these plants and mix them together.Making meat out of plants uses less water and land than raising animals for meat. It also creates fewer green house gases. Some food companies are making chicken, pork and other meat out of plants, too-follow the same s teps as making the “beef”.InsectsInsects take up little space and don’t make much waste. They also have more protein than beef, chicken and pork. This makes insects another possible food of the future.It’s common for people in some places to eat whole insects. But most people probably won’t want to see the insects they eat. So in the future, people will first turn insects used for food into powder (粉末). Then they can use the powder to make other foods like chips, protein bars, biscuits and so on.AlgaeThe BBC says algae farming could become the world’s biggest farming industry in the future.

2019年中考真题英语分项汇编专题17 任务型阅读考点4 综合任务Passage 1（2019 •山东省青岛市）Drones are like airplanes, only without a pilot. No one without a pilot’s license should be allowed to have one.Something bad or unexpected can happen when people send up a self-controlled flying machine like a drone without knowing how to really control it. Drones can become flyaways, and can be caught up on a jet stream (喷气流) and blown away. A falling drone can do much damage (损害) to buildings and people.Though drones can be harmful, they can be very helpful. At a sports event, drones can be used to give the spectators (观众) a view from above or help coaches see how their players are doing. They are also becoming a useful tool for firefighters, helping them find and fight wildfires. Drones can watch secretly on populations of animals in the wild, especially endangered ones. In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people who are in great need of it.Some people think drones can only be used by governments to help when needed. Others think that if rules are obeyed, there should be little risk to people and property (财产). Drone makers say drones are exciting new technology and that the future will be controlled by them.57. 用英语列举drones的两种用途。
