It stops every time it sees a stop light.Your close friendHi, everyone. I'm Xiaoice, a chatbot(聊天机器人). I speak like a 17-year-old-girl. If you feel lonely, you can talk with me.

It can work 24 hours without any mistakes. The AI anchor joins in human reporting team. You might see it on TV sooPopular AI artistThis beautiful painting was at an auction(拍卖) in 2018. It sold for about 3，000，000 yuan! But it is not a work by a famous painter, such as Vincent van Gogh. It was painted by an AI artist. Three Frenchmen created the AI.The AI artist studied over 15，000 paintings. In this way, it learned to paint. Now it is among the most popular artists in the world.()1.The fact about Apolong is that .A. there is a driver in itB. the door is opened by the passengerC. there are 24 seats in itD. it stops every time it sees a stop light()2.Xiaoice CAN'T .A. go out to play with youB. talk with you if you feel lonelyC. be your friendD. sing, write poems or tell stories()3.The painting is .A. a work painted by Vincent Van GoghB. worth about 3，000，000 yuan at an auctionC. studied by three French artists over 15，000 timesD. among the most beautiful paintings in the world()4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.

UNESCO sees this as a terrible fact.What happens when a language dies out? Something great is lost—not just sounds and marks but the way that people understand the world and communicate with each other. We keep different cultures and traditions through languages. Kill a language and all these are killed too.Through IMLD, more and more people come to realize the terrible situation and try to stop it.Google's 2018 Endangered (濒临灭绝的) Languages Project is a good example. Many speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload (上传) texts, audios and videos to the project website. They want to introduce the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world.The Myaamia Project is the same kind of effort to revive the language spoken by the Miami tribes (部落) of the United States. Project members work to encouragepeople to study and communicate with this language, which died out in the 1960s.These activities give life to those endangered languages. People who work to keep languages alive are not limited to the past. Many young people design apps and use social media to support their activities. They “spread the word“ to save the world.So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling of our mother language. This is why we should remember the wise words of late pre sident of South Africa, Nelson Mandela: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”()6.UNESCO holds IMLD every year in order to help people to.A. learn and use endangered languagesB. show their talents in learning languagesC. practice reading skills of mother languagesD. realize the situation of endangered languages()7.What did people do in Google's 2018 Endangered Languages Project?A.

题型三阅读理解【选择型阅读】( A )(2019德阳) Personal computers and the Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time.Some may use this freedom to share less time with certain friends or family members,but the new technology will also let them communicate more with those they care most about.I know this from personal experience.Email makes it easy to work at home.I spend most weekends and evenings at home.My working hours aren’t much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office.This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if she’d been born before email became such a practical tool.The Internet also makes it easy to share ideas with a group of friends.Say you do something fun—see a great movie perhaps and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it.If you use a telephone to call each one,you may tire of telling the story.With email,you just write one note about your experience,at your convenience,and send it to all the friends you think might be interested.They can read your message when they have time,and read only as they want to.They can reply at their convenience,and you can read what they have to say at your convenience.Email is also an inexpensive way to communicate with people who live far away.More than a few parents use email to communicate with their children at college every day.We just

April 2019,accounting for 34 percent of the world’s total.Chinese tech giant Huawei has taken a leading role by owning 15 percent of SEPs,according to the report “Who Is Leading the 5G Patent Race?”5G SEPs are patents that any company will have to use when carrying out 5G technology and no one can avoid them.Different from 3G and 4G technologies,5G technology will influence various industries and encourage the appearance of many new products,services and industries.The automotive sector will most likely be one of the first industries to depend on5G,which will connect vehicles to other vehicles,roadsides,traffic lights,buildings and the Internet,according to the report.“It is 5G that is going to be a huge jump forward for communication systems because only with 5G’s higher bandwidth can a number of applications be more advanced(尖端的) and used by most consumers,”said Nicole Peng,senior director of the market research company Canalys.As 5G technology has combined various industries and technologies,the number of 5G SEPs rose to more than 60,000 globally by the end of April 2019,the report said.( C )1.What does“taking the crown”probably mean in Paragraph 1?A.becoming the next

long as he lives.Tony puts his head down and says to himself,“Oh,no.What can I do?I need help now!”He looks up and notices the teacher coming,with a look in her eyes that says he has been discovered.As the teacher is walking to him,a classmate named Emily is carrying a glass that is full of water.Emily falls down in front of the teacher and drops the glass of water in Tony’s pants.Tony seems to be angry,but all the while he is saying to himself,“Thank you,Dear! Thank you,Dear!”Now all of a sudden,instead of being the person that everyone laughs at,Tony is the person of sympathy(同情).The person that everyone laughs at should be him,but now it is Emily.She tries to help,but they tell her,“You’ve done enough,you stupid!”At the end of the day,as they are waiting for the bus,Tony walks over to Emily and says in a low voice,“You did that on purpose,didn’t you?”Emily says back in a quiet voice,“I wet my pants once,too.”( A )1.What does Tony think the other boys will do if they find out the fact?A.They’ll laugh at him.B.They’ll tell the teacher about it.C.They’ll try to help him.D.They’ll never speak to him again.( A )2.Which is right according to the passage?A.Emily drops the water on purpose.B.Tony is really angry with Emily.C.Tony and Emily don’t go home by bus.D.Tony and Emily aren’t classmates.( D )3.We know that Emily is a girl from the passage.A.careless and lazyB.quiet and brightC.stupid and helplessD.kind and smart( E )(2019咸宁) The year 2022 will be a big year for sports in China.That’s because it will hold not only the 24th Winter Olympics in Beijing,but also the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou.On Aug.6th,2018,the official emblem (会徽) for the Hangzhou Asian Games was released (发布).The city won the hosting rights for the 2022 Asian Games in 2015.It will be the third Chinese city to host the Asian Games after Beijing and Guangzhou in 1990 and 2010.First held in 1951,the Asian Games is the largest multi-sport event in Asia.It also means a lot to China.The Beijing Asian Games was the first large international sports event to be hosted by China,China News Service reported.To make the Games a great success,Chinese people worked hard to prepare.Beijing built a great number of roads and gyms,including the famous Beijing Olympic Sports Center and Asian Games Village.The Games helped the world see China and its achievements.Since then,China has improved its global image (国际形象),China Youth Daily reported.For the 2022 Asian Games,Hangzhou has already started building 33 sports venues (场馆),according to China Youth Daily.The themes of the Hangzhou Asian Games are “green,smart,economical (节俭) and civilized”.All the Games’buildings will be environmentally friendly.( A )1.Which city will host the 2022 Asian Games?A.Hangzhou.B.Guangzhou.C.Shanghai.D.Beijing.( B )2.What does the underlined word “themes”mean in the last paragraph?A.意义B.主题C.内涵D.标题( D )3.According to the passage,how did the Beijing Asian Games influence China?A.It improved China’s economy (经济).B.It helped China attract more tourists.C.Guangzhou built a lot of roads and gyms.D.It helped the world see China and its achievements.( C )4.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A.The first Asian Games was held in 1951.B.Beijing will hold the 24th Winter Olympics in 2022.C.China has already hosted the Asian Games three times.D.All the 19th Asian Games’buildings will be environmentally friendly.( B )5.What is the main idea of the passage?A.How to prepare for the Asian Games.B.The development of the Asian Games in China.C.Why China wants to host the 19th Asian Games.D.How the 19th Asian Games emblem was designed.( F )(2019河南) Thousands of years ago,Britain was covered by thick forests,home to many animals which no longer live in the United Kingdom.There were wolves and bears,many different kinds of deer and large wild cows.There were less than four million people.They lived in small villages protected by wooden walls from the animals outside.All this has changed,of course.Now the population of the United Kingdom has increased to sixty-five million.Three-quarters of Britain is covered with fields,towns or cities.Although 25 percent of land is countryside,new methods of farming mean that there are fewer birds and small animals living in fields than ever before.The United Kingdom is one of the few countries in the world that does not have a large wild animal that eats meat.In Scotland there are only 400 wildcats,but these are much smaller than wolves.Some people would like to change things,however! Some organizations and writers say that Britain needs to become more natural again.They suggest that trees and plants that grew in the UK before towns and cities were built should be allowed to growagain.They even say that large wild animals which have not lived in the UK should be helped to return and live wild.They call this “rewilding”.Not everyone agrees.In the last twenty years,over one million trees which at first grew in Scotland have been planted and there are plans for more—but wild animals?Some people ask if wolves will attack sheep or even humans.They are also angry that rewilding might mean an end to walking in the hills which so many people enjoy.So far there are no wolves or bears in Britain’s forests—but soon there might be!根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

The accommodation wasn't wonderful，but we had everything we needed (beds，blankets，food)，and we were pleased to be out of the city and in the fresh air.On Saturday morning we met the other ten members of our group. Cameron had come along with two friends，Kevin and Simon，while sisters Carole and Lynn had come with Amanda. There were some other members I didn't know. We had come from different places and none of us knew the area.We knew we were going to spend the weekend outdoors，but none of us was sure exactly how. Half of us spent the morning caving while the others went rock-climbing and then we changed at lunchtime. Matt and I went to the caves(岩洞) first. Climbing out was harder than going in，but after a good deal of pushing， we were out at last. Though we were covered with mud，we were pleased and excited by what we'd done.根据短文内容，选择正确答案。

Buy it on the Internet! Need it now? Why wait? Ask to receive it the next day! Each day, more and more people try on-line shopping. In fact, online sales have doubled in the last ten years. But not everyone is excited. Some scientists now say that online shopping is bad for the environment.People are surprised to hear this." They think, I don't need to drive, and the business doesn't need to build a store, so there will be less pollution," says Nuria Prost, an environmental scientist. "But it is not so simple. In fact, online shopping is wasteful. It also adds to air pollution."In truth, the Internet is not always as good a friend to the environment as it seems. For example, most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials. But paper use increased by33percent between 1986 and 1997."Online shopping could have similarly harmful results," says Nevil Cohen, a researcher of environmental science. Part of the problem is what people are buying these days. In the past, people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material, such as books and clothing. But now people also shop online for large, heavy pro ducts such as televisions, computers, chairs and tables. These products need to be packed in lots of plastic and paper. This creates a lot of waste.Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution. When customers buy products and ask to receive them the next day, online businesses often have to send them by air. Airplanes use much more oil than cars and produce more carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）. When people buy a lot of different things from different online businesses, this creates even more travel by airplane.Online product returns are also a problem. For example, an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes for free if they are wrong size. This doubles the packing materials and number of airline trips required to sell one pair of shoes."If people want to protect the environment, they need to think before they shop," says Prost. "People need to ask themselves: Is this exactly what I want? Do I really need it tomorrow, or can I wait?" Online stores can also ask customers to pay money for returns. This may make people shop more carefully." Online shopping is fast and easy, "says Prost," but we can't forget the harmful result it has caused to the environment."（1）The passage begins with several questions to .A. introduce the main topicB. describe online shoppingC. show the writer's opinionD. list advantages of shopping（2）What is the passage mainly about?A. The Internet is not good to the environment.B. Online shopping causes more air pollution.C. Online shopping is bad for the environment.D. Stop online shopping to protect the environment.（3）Which of the following is to show that online shopping is wasteful?A. Large products need more packing materials.B. Paper use increased by 33 percent about ten years.C. Businesses need to build a store to sell the products.D. Online shopping costs less than shopping in a store.（4）What is probably the best title of the passage?A. A Good Deal to MakeB. A Different Lifestyle to KeepC. A Cleaner Way to ShopD. A New Business to Start（5）Which of the following shows the structure（结构）of the passage?（P=Paragraph）A.B.C.D.3．阅读理解My 14-year-old son, John, and I saw the coat at the same time in a second-hand clothing store. It stood out among big and old coats. It was so beautiful and had an unbelievable price, $ 28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John's eyes shone. Dark, woolen coats were popular with teenage boys, but new ones could cost several hundred dollars. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. It fit him so well. John wore the coal to school the next clay. After he came home, I asked. "Did the kids like your coat?""They loved it," he said with a big grin.Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and much happier. "Good dinner, Mom," he would say every evening. Without a word of complaining, he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said, "You're right. I guess I will." When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.John and I both know we should never judge a person by his clothes. But it is true that when wearing beautiful and suitable clothes, we may try to be better in thought, speech and behavior to match what is on the inside to what is on the outside.（1）What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. The price of the coat was too high.B. John liked the coat very much.C. They often went shopping together.D. The writer didn't want to buy the coat.（2）What did John use to do when he was asked to study?A. Start at once.B. Put off his homework.C. Work hard on schoolwork.D. Carry in wood for the stove.（3）Which of the following changes did NOT happen to John after he wore the coat?A. He was willing to follow suggestions.B. He often helped to do some housework.C. He always worried about his study.D. He said sweet words to make his mother happy.（4）What does the writer want to say through this passage?A. What we wear could help shape who we are inside.B. Life is full of possibilities when we are young.C. We should not judge people by their appearance.D. It's a good choice to try different things in our lives.4．阅读理解One Thursday afternoon, when I was in Grade 9, a new boy came into my classroom. He was short and thin. He walked up to the teacher and told her, very seriously, that he was new. His name was Christian. He sat down, took a look at me, and then looked away. I didn't think he was very nice and I was sure he wasn't the type I would like to become friends with.During that year, I didn't talk to him much, but he smiled at me when our eyes met, always shyly. He never ate lunch with anybody, and he never talked to anybody but me.But one day I joined those unkind kids who were making fun of him. We made fun of him though I thought it was wrong."Haven't you got any friends?" a kid asked Christian, who had walked past us alone, head down. "No, he hasn't got any friends. He's too stupid and shy," I said. Then Christian looked up at me with the saddest dog eyes I had ever seen. I felt very sorry at that moment.That night, I couldn't sleep because I couldn't get Christian's face out of my mind. In the weeks that followed, he never met my eyes in class and never smiled at me. It was really hard for me to decide to write him a note asking him to forgive （原谅） me. But I thought I should.The next day in class, I wrote him a note telling him how sorry I felt. About five minutes later, I turned and saw tears in his eyes. "You will never realize what your apology （道歉） has meant to me, Jimmy," he said to me. "I hope we can become friends."We had lunch together that noon and we had the best talk I had ever had. Over the years at high school, we were close friends.When I think back, I realize that, if I had not apologized, I would never have known what a lovely person Christian was!Apologies can really change your life, so never miss the chance to tell somebody you are sorry.（1）From the passage, we know Christian was a ________ boy.A. tall and fatB. short and shyC. short and activeD. lovely and fat（2）Jimmy felt ________ after he made fun of Christian with other unkind kids.A. happyB. interestedC. sorryD. bored（3）This passage tells us that ________.A. we should make an apology when we hurt othersB. Jimmy's apology was unimportant to ChristianC. Christian wasn't lovely in factD. it is impossible to say sorry to others5．阅读理解Big data（数据） is lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites（社交媒体网站）, companies and governments.One set of data can have people's names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need more help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he, she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.（1）This reading is about ______.A. what big data is and how it is usedB. what schools and hospitals people likeC. where important data is collected and storedD. how big data is controlled by governments and companies（2）One company uses weather information to ______.A. help children in needB. know when people will visit the hospitalC. find out who tides the bus or trainD. understand when people will need ice cream （3）The main idea of Paragraph 3 is ____.A. big data can be used for good reasonsB. we can use big data in a number of waysC. big data can be used for both good and bad reasonsD. we can use big data to stop babies from getting sick（4）The overall tone （总基调） of this reading is _________.A. sad and personalB. personal and scientificC. informative but sillyD. scientific and informative6．阅读理解I'm sure most people like music.

But for those who are interested in adventure and sports, there is a lot to do. Vanuatu's islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano（火山） surfing and land diving.Volcano Surfing On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 361 metres into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts（爆发） almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it's very different. Volcano surfers try to escape the erupting volcano-- without getting hit by flying rocks! It's fast, fun and dangerous- the perfect extreme sport（极限运动）.Land Diving Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The activity, first called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony（宗教仪式）. A man ties tree vines（树藤） to his legs.

But “How are you?”is also a very unusual question.It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer.The person who asks“How are you?”hopes to hear the answer“Fine”,even if the person’s friend isn’t fine.The reason is that “How are you?”isn’t really a question and “Fine”isn’t really an answer.They are simply other ways of sayi ng“Hello”or “Hi”.Sometimes,people also don’t say exactly what they mean.For example,when someone Asks “Do you agree?”,the other person might think,“No, I disagree.I think you’re Wrong...”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly,so the other person might say“I’m not sure.”It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people.For example,many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.”Often,the person who wants to hang up gives andexcuse:“Someone’s at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.”The excuses might be real,or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want totalk any more,but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite,and it doesn’t hurt the other person.Whether they are greeting each other,talking about an idea,of finishing a talk,people don’t say exactly that they are thinking.It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other,and it’s part of the game of language.( )1.When a person in America asks“How are you?”,he or she wants to hear“”A.How are you?B.HelloC.I don’t know.D.Fine( )2.When a person disagree with someone,it is polite to say“”A.You are wrong.I disagree.B.I’m not sure.C.I’m sure I disagree.D.No, I disagree.( )3.A polite way to finish talk is to say“”A.You have to go now.B.I want to hang up.C.I have to go now.D.I don’t want to talk any mo re.( )4.When a person says“I’ve to go now.Someone’s at the door.”,the person may be________..A.giving an excuseB.hurting someone’s feelingC.illD.asking you a question( )5.The rule of the game of language is probably .A.“Always say what you mean”B.“Don’t disagree with people.”C.“Never say exactly what you’re thinking.”D.“Be polite.”BI’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of is Mother sat wriging letters. Standing by her chair,looking at the ink bottle, pens,and white paper,I decided that the act of writing must be a most be a most wonderful thing in the world.Years later,during her final illness,Mother kept different things for my sister and brother.“But the desk,”she said again“is for Elizabeth.”I never saw her angry,never saw her cry.I knew she loved me;she showed it action. But as a young girl.I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened.And a gulf opened b etween us. I was “too emotional（易动感的）”.But she lived“on the surface（表面）”.As years passed and I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.My hope tumed to disappointment,then little interest and, finally,peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it,and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.But the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to,that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work.. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside-a photo of my father and a one-page letter,folded and refolded many times.It was my letter.“In any way you choose,Mother,you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.”( )6.The writer began to love her mother’s deskA.after Mother diedB.before she became a writerC.when she was a childD.when Mother gave it to her( )7.The passage shows that .A. Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughterB.Mother was too serious about her daughter in wordsC.Mother wrote to her daughter in careful wordsD.Mother wrote to her daughter in cardful words( )8.The word“gulf”in the passage means.A. deep understanding between the old the youngB. different ideas between mother and daughterC. free talks between mother and daughterD. part of the sea going far in land( )9.What did Mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness?A. She had never received the letter.B. For years,she often talked about the letter.C. She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her lif e.D. She read the letter again and again till she died.( )10.What’s best title of the passage?A.My Letter to MotherB.Mother and ChildrenC.My Mother’s DeskD.Talks between Mother and me三、任务型阅读理解仔细阅读下面的短文，按要求完成短文后的问题What will the future be like?It’s possible that we may often fly up into space! Out of all the coolest inventions of the year,Time chose Spaceship One as the best. Spaceship One is a 6-meter-long white spaceship. On June 21,American pilot Mike Melvill flew it to space and back-about 100 kilometers up into the sky.（1）Some might say it’s not a big deal.You know,people went to the moon years ago.Well, Spaceship One is special because（2）it is the first spaceship that wasn’t made by the government.It was built and launched（发射）by a private US company.Lots of people want to travel in space.But it’s too expensive.American milliomaire DennisTito paid almost US $ 20 million to become the first space tourist to visit the International Station in 2001. So private companies began to think of making their own spaceship to take other tourists up into space.（3）飞船一号的成功是一个好的开端。

（⼗⼀）To find out whether bees（蜜蜂）can see colours, the following experiment is made. A round table is put in a garden, and on the table is a piece of blue cardboard（硬纸版）with a drop of syrup（糖浆）on it. After a short time, bees come to the syrup. The bees then fly to their hive（蜂房）and give the syrup to other bees in the hive. Then they return to the feeding-place which they have found. After a while, the blue cardboard with the syrup on it is taken away. Instead of this card, a blue card is now put on the left side of the first feeding-place and a red card to its right. These new cards have no syrup on them. Very soon bees arrive again, and fly straight to the blue card. None go to the red card.Picture 11. How many cards do you need to prepare for the experiment?A. Two: one blue and one redB. Three: two blue and one redC. Three: one blue and two redD. Four: two blue and two red2. If Picture 1 below shows the table top during Step 1 of the experiment, which of A, B, C, D in Picture 2 shows the table top during Step 2?Picture 23. During Step 2 of the experiment, the bees go to ________.A. the blue card with syrup on itB. the new blue card with no syrup on itC. the empty space where the original（原先的）blue card wasD. the new blue card with syrup on it on the left of the red card4.

They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（⼤⽓）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（⽓象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（⽐较）them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.1. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space2. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere?

They have four chances（机会）to move the ball ten yards（码）. They can carry it or they can throw it. If they move the ball ten yards, they can try to move it another ten yards. If they move it to the end of the field, they receive six points（点）.It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the ball. If he does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball the other team.Each university wants its own team to win. Many thousands of people come to watch. They all shout for their favourite team. Young men and women come on the field to help the people shout more. They dance and jump while they shout.Each team plays ten or eleven games each season.The season begins in September and ends in November.

With a smile, the teacher drew two circles（圆）. Within（在……⾥⾯）the larger one is my knowledge of things, and within the smaller one is yours. Out of the circles is still unknown to both of us. Since mine is larger, as you can see, the line that marks out the circle is longer. That makes it clear that who has more chances（机会）to face something still unknown.1. The great learned man believed that ________.A. a teacher has more questionsB. a student has more questionsC. both a teacher and a student have questionsD. everyone, except a teacher, has more questions2.

You play the Lottery each day and there are two choices: each you hit the jack pot and your life changes totally or you lose and you have to rening. It’s known that if you don’t risk, you can’t win. So the best solution is always to think over your decisions, and to see what they can represent in your future. Only afterwords is proper for you to make up your mind.
It’s simply your own choice if you don’t want to study, go to college or have a career. It really doesn’t matter if your parents threaten you, punish you or scold（责骂）you all the time. If you stick to be yourself and you think you know it all, then these are useless.
If you fall in love with a man from the very first moment you set your eyes on him and you don’t want to meet somebody else, to see how they are, it’s your wish. If you get married and the marriage ends in a year’s time, you can’t blame the rest as they all have told you to be careful and never to takehasty（轻率的）decisions.
You are the one who decides what job to have, in which city or country to live. It’s your choice and your responsibility. The moment you get hurt or something goes wrong, you blame yourself, and you start everything from the very beginning.
A. our character B. our existence
C. our personality D. our way of perceiving reality
2. The underlined word “miserable” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”
You are the only architect（建筑师）of your future. The best are only workers who help you create your own dream.
1. All the following build up our way of being EXCEPT __________.
初三英语阅读理解三
Most of us say that God, or destiny or whateversuperior forcethat may exist in this universe（宇宙）is what makes us our future and guides us throughout our existence.
You consider that you can’t find your place in your own country, so you risk the comfortable but modest（谦虚的）life you have with your parents and you go abroad. Maybe there will be moments when you can’t stand any more the loneliness, the strangers around you, or your job. But remember that nobody made you take that decision, so you have to take a deep breath, and then go on, as it’s very difficult to find a guilty person when you know it well that you are the only one to be blamed.
