But without saying anything, he wrote in the sand (沙子), “Today my best friend slapped me in the face.”They kept on walking until they found a lake, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in some thick sand and started drowning (溺水), but his friend saved him.? After that, he wrote on a stone, “Today my best friend savedmy life.”The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, “After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand, but now, you write on a stone. Why?”The other friend replied, “When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness (原谅) can take it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must keep it in stone where no wind can ever blow it away.”It is easy to get upset at others, even our good friends, when they say or do things that hurt us. But if we hold onto these upset feelings forever, they will just hurt us. On the other hand, when someone does something nice for us, holding onto the feeling of thankfulness can give you a lifetime of inner peace.?( )1. How did the person who got slapped react?A. He slapped the friend back.B. He had an argument with his friend.C. He wrote about his upset feelings in the sand.D. He pushed his friend into a lake nearby.( )2.

The members of the club called themselves the “Stranglers (扼杀者)”.To level up their literary (写作) skills, some women who were interested in writing at the university started a club of their own.? The members called themselves the “Wranglers (看护者)”.The members of the “Wranglers” also gave their opinions about each others’ literary works. But the feedback (反馈) from the members was much softer, more positive and more encouraging.? Every effort (努力) from a member was encouraged by all.After 20 years, one of the students was doing a study of his classmates when he noticed a huge difference in the writing world of the Stranglers and the Wranglers.Among all the brilliant young men in the Stranglers, none had made any major achievements. But the Wranglers had several successful writers.The groups were equally (相等地) talented and educated. There was not much difference between them. The Stranglers strangled each other, while the Wranglers gave each other a lift (鼓舞).

He had left their home for a faraway land and she hadn’t heard from him for a long time. 1A tramp (流浪汉) would always come to take the bread away. As he left, he would always say, “The evil you do remains with you. The good you do comes back to you.”The woman felt irritated. “Not even a word of thanks,” she said angrily.This went on, day after day.Finally, the woman became so angry that she decided to add poison (毒药) to the loaf!2 As she was doing it, her hands shook. “Look at what I’ve done!” she said. She immediately (立刻) threw the bread away and made another loaf.As usual, the tramp came and picked up the bread.That evening, there was a knock on the door. Amazingly (神奇的是), the woman’s son was standing in the doorway. He was tired and weak. “Mom, it’s a miracle (奇迹) that I made it back home! As I got closer, I started to feel so hungry that I almost gave up. But then, an old tramp came up to me and gave me a loaf of bread. He said he got it from a nice lady.”The woman’s face turned pale at once. 3The tramp’s words suddenly came back to her: “The evil you do remains with you.

He had no other skills and his boss (老板) was very nice, so he worked for his boss one year after another. After 10 years of working for the same company, he finally got fed up with it and decided to quit (辞职). He wanted to try something new.However, after hearing this, his boss asked him to help with one final job before he left the team. He asked him to build one final house. Although the carpenter didn’t want to do this kind of work anymore, he still agreed. He built the house, but his heart wasn’t in it. He used cheap materials (材料) and rushed to finish the job quickly. It turned out to be the worst house that he had ever built.?When he finished, his boss came to see him one last time. Seeing the house, he said nothing. He paid the worker for building the house. He then said, “I wanted to do something special for you to say thanks for your 10 years of hard work. You know, you have built so many beautiful and grand (宏伟的) houses for other people these years but not one for yourself ... so I’m giving you this house as a gift.”Surprised, the carpenter was speechless.

中考英语阅读理解专项训练(七)
中考英语阅读理解专项训练（七）(A)The earth is about 4,600 million years old. Modern man has lived on the earth for only 35,000 years, but during that time, we have changed our planet in many ways. Many of the things that we have done are good, but more are not good for the earth.Water pollutionA lot of people, birds and fish die each day because of water pollution. Factories have polluted the land and the water. As a result, many rivers and lakes are now dead.Air pollutionIn big cities, factories, as well as cars, trucks and buses are the main cause of air pollution. Many people in cities now have serious health problems. For example, Mexico city used to be a beautiful sunny capital, but today it is always covered by thick brown clouds.Soil pollutionIn order to have a good harvest, most of the farmers use chemicals too much in their fields. That’s bad for the soil. But this kind of pollution is difficult to stop.Hope for the futureThese problems are very serious for our future, so all of us should do something to improve our environment. If we can stop pollution, our planet will become more and more beautiful and our health will be better. Let’s be greener people!( )26._____ have made the earth change a lot.A.Human beingsB.AnimalsC.PlantsD.People in other planets ( )27.There are _____ kinds of pollution in this passage.A.twoB.threeC.fourD.five( )28.Pollution isn’t a big problem now, is it?A.Yes, it is.B.No, it isn’t.C.Yes, there is.D.No, there isn’t.( )29.Which sentence is NOT right according to the passage?A.Most of things that we have done are good for our planet.B.We must stop the factories from pouring waste water into the rivers and lakes.C.Because of water pollution, many rivers and lakes are now dead.D.Water pollution is very serious nowadays.( )30.Which sentence is RIGHT?A.Though Mexico city is always covered by thick brown clouds, it’s still a beautifulsunny capital.B.Air pollution can make people sick.C.Now fewer farmers use chemicals in the fields.D.Factories, cars, trucks and buses are the main cause of soil pollution.(B)Stop and listen! What do you hear? You may hear many different sounds. Some of those sounds may be noise. Noise is a loud or unwanted sound.Noise can be caused by many kinds of machines, such as motorcycles, jet planes (喷气式飞机), farm tractors, and power motors. And, to some people, rock music is also a noise.What happens to people who live near noisy machines or use them over a period of time? Doctors have found that these people have trouble in sleeping. And most importantly, constant (连续的) loud noise can cause loss of hearing.Scientists use a unit of measure called a decibel(分贝) to measure the loudness of a sound. The sound of a quiet room, for example, measures 35 decibels. Talking measures between 40 and 65 decibels. Sounds from traffic and from some rock bands measure over 120 decibels. Noise at such high level causes the greatest hearing loss.根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。

2021年外研版中考英语总复习专项训练：阅读理解7 科技说明
阅读理解(七)科技说明AAir pollution is a big problem for cities in most countries. Many people are dying from it. But how can we tell the air quality is good or bad?In a tree next to a river in Amsterdam, a tiny birdhouse glows(发光) bright green when the air is clean. If you’re standing nearby, the birdhouse will also give you a free Wi-Fi connection —but only if pollution level is low enough. The designer is Joris Lam. His birdhouse tells you about the air quality.Joris’ birdhouse is called TreeWifi. It can be put on a tree around your house to test the air quality. People can see a screen with information about the local air quality and how to improve it.TreeWifi is a simple way for people to know about the air pollution around them. If the birdhouse does not glow, people should care more about the environment. It reminds them to change their lifestyles. For example, to protect the air, they can ride bikes or just walk instead of driving cars.“Imagine if trees gave free Wi-Fi, people would plant more trees like crazy. It’s a pity that they only give us the oxygen(氧气) we breathe,” Joris said.The birdhouse doesn’t work as a home for birds now. Joris and his team are trying to make some changes to it. In the future, they hope birds will live in the birdhouse and the heat of its green light will be used to keep birds warm in winter.1.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

It can provide a new kind of sustainable fuel(可持续燃料). Nopalimex, a company in Mexico, has made one of the world’s first cactus-powered factories. The idea came to Sosa in Nopalimex when he was looking for ways to save money for his food factory. He now powers his factory with cactus gas(气体). The cost to produce the gas is half the cost of electricity.Soon, the gas produced by Nopalimex will also be used in cars. Nopalimex’s gas is made by using the prickly pear(刺梨)—a kind of cactus. To make the gas, the prickly pear is mixed together with manure(肥料). Then the mixture produces the gas that can be used as fuel.Why cactus? Fuel can be made from other plants such as corn, but there are a few reasons why cactus is a better choice. First, prickly pears need very little water and very little care, and grow well in hot temperatures. Today, these characteristics are key. Also, unlike corn, prickly pears don’t need space that could be used for other food plants. They can grow in areas where many food plants can’t grow. Last, after making gas from prickly pears and manure, their byproducts(副产品) can be used to help grow food.Scientists still need to do more research on making and using prickly pear gas. As projects like Nopalimex show, we have the possibility to produce more sustainable fuel to power our lives.1.How can cactus help the world? ( )A.By saving farmers’ money.B.By providing a new kind of sustainable fuel.C.By taking the place of corn.D.By producing a lot of electricity and gas.2.Why does Sosa power his factory with cactus gas? ( )A.Because he wants to save money for his food factory.B.Because he has grown a lot of cactus and corn in his town.C.Because he wants to be well-known around the world.D.Because he wants to grow cactus instead of corn.3.What does the underlined word “mixture” in Paragraph 2 refer to? ( )A.The Nopalimex company.B.The manure.C.The prickly pear and manure.D.Cactus.4.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? ( )A.How cactus is used to produce gas.B.Where we can grow a lot of cactus.C.What Nopalimex does with cactus.D.Why cactus is a better choice to make fuel.C [2020·乐山]Do you know 5G?It is the fifth generation(代)of mobile network technology. These new networks are coming.China just issued commercial licenses(发放商用牌照)for 5G on June 6, 2019.This means that China’s telecom companies will be able to offer 5G networks for mobile phone users.Each mobile network generation is faster and more powerful than the one before it. 1G let us talk to each other. 2G let us send messages. 3G gave us data and the Internet. And 4G made all of these things faster. What’s special about 5G?5G has a very short delay between sending and receiving information. Now, 4G takes about 100 to 200 milliseconds(毫秒) to send and receive data. But 5G will get it down to 1 millisecond or less—this is almost real-time.This big change will not only make our mobile Internet faster, but also deeply change our lives. Read on to find out how.5G+entertainment(娱乐)5G networks are about 100 times faster than 4G. This means you can download a movie in seconds using 5G.Also, virtual reality(VR) games will become more popular with 5G. The short delay of 5G will make the games feel even more real.5G+transport5G will also bring us safer self-driving cars. These cars can send signals(信号) to each other. They also talk to traffic lights and road sensors(传感器). 5G will allow cars to react(反应)even faster than human drivers.5G+smart homes5G also makes the Internet of things possible. Internet of things is a large network that connects everything to the Internet.
