This sentimentality(多愁善感) toward home is something that has come down to us from the past. Many modern people do not have it, and I think it is a good thing that they do not. In the old days, life was difficult.

I lived in England for three years, and I noticed that boys and girls left their parents' homes and lived in places of their own. There they could just telephone and ask an agency to provide them with a house or an apartment, which was their home. How has the meaning of this word word ““home home”” been changed by such activity? What does home mean to those people or to families who often move about, living in first one hotel and then another? I believe that for them home means a place where they can have privacy. As for me, the atmosphere and surroundings of the place where my parents live have no sentimental attachment(依恋). Home is where I can shut the door and be by myself. When I left my parents several years ago, I was anxious to leave. You might call it unfeeling, but that was the way I felt.

2021~2022学年广东广州荔湾区广州市西关外国语学校初三下学期期中英语试卷-学生用卷一、完形填空1、There are two kinds of opinions on“the life in the past and the life today”.Someone thinks that the life today is quite from that in the past.On the one hand,the significant technological developments do help people solve a lot of problems.However,on the other hand,the life in the past more happiness to people than that does today.The life was in the past.As the of the world is getting larger,competition is getting fiercer(更加激烈的)now.If you are not able to do your job well,someone will you soon.While others think the life today is much better than that in the past.There are manynew that make our life easy and comfortable.The rice cookers,gas stoves and microwave ovens are of great to many housewives.The rice cooker is a real time-saver.It is so simple to use that even a child can rice with it. There are some other machines which the long hours of doing housework for the house wives.There are many other inventions which help make our life better.For example,the help people get in touch with each other more conveniently and the Internet makes people’s life more colorful.【小题1】【小题2】【小题3】【小题4】【小题5】【小题6】【小题7】【小题8】【小题9】【小题10】二、阅读单选2、The Mogo Wildlife Park,an Australian zoo,saved all of its animals facing danger from bush fires(林区大火),thanks to a zookeeper,who brought monkeys,pandas,and even a tiger to his home.The Mogo Wildlife Park is located in the South coast.It is just10kilometers from Bateman’s Bay,a popular tourist place that has been seriously influenced by the fires,The fires have made thousands of people leave their homes and at least eight people die.The zoo houses nearly200animals,including Sumatran tigers and southern white rhinos.Chad Staples, the director of the zoo,told the Broadcasting Company that zookeepers were well-prepared to protect the animals as bush fires broke out over the New Year’s Eve.“Thanks to the amazing staff here and a plan, no one is hurt,not a single animal,”Sara Ang from the wildlife park told BBC Radio5that some of the smaller monkeys and red pandas were moved into Staples’home.Staples told the ABC that zookeepers felt it was safer to keep larger and more dangerous animals including lions and gorillas in their night enclosures(圈地)where they would feel more comfortable as bush fires burned around them.Staples told The Times that the team on-site fought against fires at the65-acre park for several hours.He thanked his staff for working tirelessly to protect the animals because they“love them like their own family”.The zoo confirmed on Tuesday that every animal was“safe and in wonderful care.”【小题1】What can you know from the first paragraph?【小题2】What does the underlined word“houses”in Paragraph2probably mean?【小题3】Which one is the best title for this passage?3、Many people take running as a way to keep fit.They like to run in hot weather and enjoy the feeling of being wet through with sweat while running.Cold weather during winter months,with low temperatures and freezing cold winds,may keep many people from running in the open air.However,a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run.In fact,running in cold weather helps improve one’s performance.Many runners might find it easier to run in winter than in hot weather.Lower temperatures reduce stress on the body.When you run in cold weather,your heart rate is lower. And the body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather because the levels are lower in winter than in warmer conditions.John Brewer is a professor of applied sport science at St.Mary’s University in London.For this study,he and other researchers put a group of people into a room where summer and winter weather conditions are recreated.The test subjects were asked to run10,000meters under both conditions and their biological measurements were recorded and studied.From the study,every movement runners make produces heat.The heat can be really damaging unless the body can lose it.One way in which people lose heat is by sweating.The body loses heat through droplets of sweat.The body also loses it by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin and it puts more stress on the heart,particularly in hot conditions because it’s much harder to lose heat when the outside environment is warm.As the result shows,running in hot temperatures results in6percent higher heart rates.When running in cold conditions,the body does not have to work hard to pump blood to the skin’s surface.Therefore,it requires less energy.The most important thing for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing.Keep as dry as possible when exercising in low temperatures.Wear mittens (连指手套)on your hands instead of gloves(分指手套).Wear more than one layer of clothing to keep sweat away from your skin.So,don’t let winter weather keep you indoors.Simply get ready for the low temperatures and start running.【小题1】Why do most people dislike running outdoors in winter?【小题2】Why did John Brewer make a group of people run in a room?【小题3】What should people wear while running in cold winter?【小题4】What’s the purpose of the passage?4、Vacation Packages in Los AngelesA Disney in Los AngelesEnjoy a fantastic and magical adventure in the Los Angeles area with A Disney in Los Angeles,which includes a four-night stay and a1-day Disneyland Park Hopper(通票)with transport which will help you set up a perfect experience to Disney.Details:4nights’stay in one of over85hotels of your choicel-day Disneyland Park Hopper with transportDescription:People of all ages

the area and come back to your freshly-made bed for all five nights of your stay.You’ll be able to enjoy every moment of your vacation whether in your room or out in the town.【小题1】Which place should you go to when you would like to take exciting rides?【小题2】What can you do in the Experience of the Hollywood Stars vacation package?【小题3】In which part of the newspaper can you read the text?【小题4】If you want to enjoy the hotel service in Los Angeles as much as possible,which vacation package should you probably choose?5、Working from home is more and more popular as a means of escaping the nine-to-five office life.Why do you work under the eye of your boss when you can work in front of the TV in your slippers?Armedwith all the necessary things—telephone,computer,e-mail and fax,many workers believe they can work as effectively as their colleagues in the office.Being able to work wherever you like:from a busy city to a village,and not having to stand the daily things,make working from home an attractive choice.If you wish, you can even work on a river boat.So what will become of the office tomorrow?It is possible that many could go into computer space creating a new wave of virtual(虚拟的)offices.To minimize office in inner-city areas,companies will have a work force made up of a network of home,workers linked by an advanced communication and information system.A central processing computer would be controlled by the manager who sends out work schedules and oversees(监视)the activity of each employee.A video screen would be created,as the need for e-mail or telephone becomes greater.Seeing the mood and expression of work colleagues,mangers would have the ability to view several employees at once on their screen.Employers would be encouraged to feed any information that may be useful to fellow workers into the computer to make the company work more effectively.As the company’s lifeblood,the computer would contain a record of all conversations and communication for future reference and hold secret information such as accounts in password(口令)protected areas.【小题1】Why does the author say“If you wish,you can even work on a river boat.”in the first paragraph?【小题2】According to the passage,which of the following things is NOT necessary for a virtual office?【小题3】From the passage we can learn that__________【小题4】Which one is the best title for the passage?三、阅读还原5选56、Everyone knows that fish is good for health.The fats in fish are thought to help us keep away from heart disease.However,it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home.Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of each person a year,but we eat twice as many fish in restaurants as at home.Buying, keeping,or cooking fish isn’t difficult.It just requires a little knowledge.【小题1】When buying fish,you should first smell it.Fresh fish should smell sweet:you should feel that you’re standing by the ocean.【小题2】Do not buy it.When you have bought a fish and arrived home,you’d better keep the fish in the fridge if you don’t cook it immediately.Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.【小题3】There are many common methods used to cook fish.Is there anything better than a piece of properly cooked fish?【小题4】Here are some steps to teach you how to steam fish in a rice cooker.First,clean it and mix it with your choice of spices(调料).Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for8to10minutes if it weighs about one pound.(A larger one will take more time.)【小题5】Be careful when opening the steam pot.Hot steam will come out once you open the pot and it can easily burn you.四、语法选择7、Take a piece of hair from your head.Ouch!It may be long,it’s not very wide.Three scientists spent over30years machines that are about a thousand times than the width of one piece of your hair.Theyare small that they can only be seenunder microscope(显微镜)!They nanomachines(纳米机器).Because of their hard work,the three scientists won the2016Nobel Prize in Chemistry.They are

Pick it up and put it in your bag.” Thomas said , “it isn’t worth the trouble.” His father said nothing but he picked it up himself. When they got to a nearby town, they had a rest. There the farmer sold the horseshoe and with the few pennies he bought some cherries (樱桃).The farmer and the son continued their way . The sun was up in the sky , and there wasn’t a house or even a tree where they couldn't have a rest. Thomas felt too thirsty to walk on. At this time , his father dropped a cherry on the ground and Thomas picked it up quickly and ate it.

An average person, hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way thanto stay in a burning building.Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may have leaked into the room.On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are these which open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement(水泥)might end with injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.46.
