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)。

Miss Li was telling the children what water was like. After that, she asked her students, “What is water?” No one answered for a few minutes. Miss Li asked again, “Why don’t you answer my question? Didn’t I tell you what water is like?”Just then, a boy put up his hand and said, “Miss Li, you told us that water has no color and no smell. But where to find such kind of water? The water in the river behind my house is always black and it has a bad smell.” Most of the children agreed with him.“I’m sorry, children,” said the teacher, “our water is getting dirtier and dirtier. That’s a serious problem.”根据短文内容,回答问题。

But many wild animals are facing the danger of dying out, because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. For example, their living area has become smaller and smaller because of pollution and the development of cities. They have no room to live in except the zoo. And many of the wild animals now can’t find enough food to eat. At the same time, man is killing off animals just for getting their fur, teeth and meat.People should realize how serious the situation is and something should be done to protect the animals. We should set up some nature reserves so that animals can live freely. And people shouldn’t be allowed to kill the endangered (处于危险中的) animals. We should also do something to make our world cleaner. Fresh air, clean water and green grass are all important for animals. The death of the endangered animals will bring a disaster (灾难) to human beings.根据短文内容,判断正(T)误(F)。

冀教版九年级英语阅读理解练习七(含解析)Pollution inside homes and other buildings kills more than 4 million people each year.Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood﹣powered of coal﹣powered stoves.One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun.Crosby Menzies,a solar power expert in a South African company,described his latest solar cooker called the“Sol.4”,”It is four square meters of mirrors,six to eight meters in length.It is quite a large cooler.”T he“Sol.4”works by reflecting light from the sun off large mirrors.The mirrors direct the light at a cooking pan.Then the light heats the pan with solar energy.Within two minutes,the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions.In just four minutes,water can be boiled.That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity.The cooker is also much“friendlier”than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it.And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal.Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.At present,the cooker only works when the sun is shining.But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight.Each cooker costs about $2000,which is a large amount of money for most Africans.To solve that problem,Crosby Menzies has crated a non﹣governmental organization called solar Cookers for Africa.It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment.1.This passage is mainly about A.A.solar cookersB.smoke pollutionC.solar power expertsD.breathing illnesses2.The“Sol﹣4”is mainly used to D.A.shorten the time of cookingB.reduce the cost of making cookersC.raise money through donations to help African peopleD.reduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke.3.The underlined word“individuals“most probably means“C”A.cookers B.mirrors C.people D.experts4.Which of the following about the“Sol﹣4”is TRUE?DA.It is six to eight square meters of mirrors.B.It can work in any weather condition nowC.It can also heat the pan by lighting firewoodD.It is more environment﹣friendly than other cookers.5.From the passage,we can infer that B.A.the“Sol﹣4”will be designed in a smaller sizeB.more African can use the solar cookers in the futureC.the“Sol﹣4”is the first product of the south African companyD.the African government will provide poor people with solar cookers.1.答案:A.主旨大意题.根据One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun.Crosby Menzies,a solar power expert in a South African company,described his latest solar cooker called the“Sol.4”,”联系全文内容可知本文是介绍一种新型的太阳能灶具,能够减少污染对身体的伤害,故答案是A.2.答案:D.细节理解题.根据Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood﹣powered of coal﹣powered stoves.One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun.Crosby Menzies,a solar power expert in a South African company,described his latest solar cooker called the“Sol.4”可知Sol﹣4主要是用于减少因有害气体引起的死亡,故答案是D.3.答案:C.词义猜测题.根据.And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal.人们可以不必收集柴火或花钱买煤做饭和后面的would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.不太可能有来自于有害烟雾引起的呼吸病.individuals作为主语,表示人不可能得病,故选C.4.答案:D.细节理解题.根据The cooker is also much“friendlier”than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it.And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal.Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke可知这种新灶具比其他灶具更环保,故选D.5.答案:B.推理判断题.根据To solve that problem,Crosby Menzies has crated a non﹣governmental organization called solar Cookers for Africa.It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment.可以推断将来越来越多的非洲人会用上太阳能灶,故答案是B.。

九年级中考英语阅读理解专练第(一)篇Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey(土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends .Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends.

If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name.Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married.One’s courtesy name often had something to do with one’s given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean “carriage (马车)”. Zhuge Liang’s given name was Liang, which means “bright”.

Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. “I’m also disabled and I want to do something for them with my music,” said Ma.Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the “colorful” music through sound and emotion.Ma’s mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.“After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises,” said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, “As I’ve been practicing so long, it’s hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practicing.”In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the CentralConservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing.

What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and itbecame quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying (伴奏) instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally (口头地), there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians (历史学者) usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).1.

With the great excitement of winning an Olympic gold medal still fresh in his mind, Su wrote a letter to the president, telling him how lucky he felt to have made his dream come true.Su still remembers what Xi wrote in the reply, “The new era is the time for young people to realize their dreams.”“I have always kept those words in my mind,” Su said.“When I made up my mind to be a professional(职业的) snowboarder, I know there is a big gap between my performance(表现) and that of the top sportsmen in the world. But I have been working hard to realize my dream.

Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, and usually far way from cities. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.The National Parks in England are called “England’s Breathing Spaces” because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems too. First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.How can people help? All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment.

They are hard-working and professional in their work, and use sign language to communicate with each other from time to time.Bach’s Bakery lies in Changsha City, Hunan Province. It is run by a German couple, Uwe Brutzer and his wife Dorothee Brutzer, who started it up ten years ago with the purpose of creating more jobs for those disabled in the neighborhood. So far, Bach’s Bakery has trained around 30 hearing disabled people. While some skilled workers found jobs in other bakeries and hotels and have been able to live on their own, several of them have stayed to work atthe bakery after they completed the training.The Brutzers’ work has won the support of many people in China. With the spread of news about the bakery, many Internet users learned about Bach’s Bakery and its inspiring story. As a result, many local people in Changsha as well as visitors from other parts of the country come to buy their products, Uwe said that public attention has encouraged them a lot and helped grow the bakery’s business, resulting in workers getting higher pay. However, what he values more is that, through media (媒体) reports, more people have come to understand that disabled people can work as well as other people when they are given chances.Now, as they are preparing to return to Germany, they have found a German couple teaching in China as the new managers, and handed over the bakery to a public welfare (福利) organization.

The Rules of Bach’s Bakery第(九)篇Scientists are looking for ways that we can effectively use the light and heat from the sun. One idea that has caught their imagination is solar roads. They are expected to produce clean and renewable energy.With solar panels on the surfaces, solar roads cost more than traditional roads. However, besides the functions of traditional roods, they have the panels to receive sunlight and change it into the energy to supply power to homes, factories and street lighting. There are four layers in a solar panel:•Base layer: It is made of insulation material and forms a good grip with the road below this layer.•Middle layer: This is the most important layer. It holds all kinds of power lines connecting all the solar parts in the panel, like LED lights and the heating system.•Top layer: This layer is super-strong glass. It allows the panel to hold the weight of the heaviest vehicles.•Capping: This is the topmost layer used to offer extra protection to the solar parts in the panel. The layer must be rough enough to provide the traction for the safety of vehicles.With the smart design, solar roads can successfully charge the vehicles on them. And the roads have inbuilt LED lights to replace the traditional rood signs and lines, which are usually painted and harmful to humans. What’s more, the heating systems in the solar roads can take care of the snow and ice on the roads for drivers.Test solar roads have been built in several countries (France, China, USA, etc.) since 2014. The first word solar road project, Metrics of Watt Way in France, was set up by a French company called Construction Colas. It was an example of low effectiveness. In the first year, it had been expected to produce around 767 kWh of energy a day, but it only produced 409 kWh. Even so, the production could increase with design improvements. Of course, more time is needed before this technology is put into use.Solar roads may not be widely used in the near future, but they are indeed great for an environment-friendly and energy-saving world.1. Solar roads ________.A. offer power to homesB. get energy from factoriesC. keep the sunlight awayD. cost less than traditional roods2. Which of the following about the layers of a solar panel is TRUE according to the passage?A. The base layer is the most important layer.B. There are many power lines in the middle layer.C. The top layer lies on the top of the solar panel.D. The capping should be smooth enough for drivers.3. The first world solar road project ________.A. was set up in China in 2014B. showed high effectiveness as expectedC. was started by a US companyD. could get better with design improvements4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Solar Roads: A Widely Used InventionB. Solar Roads: A Safety Guard for DriversC. Solar Roads: A New Idea for Clean EnergyD. Solar Roads: A Way to Produce LED Lights5. Which part of newspaper may you read this passage?A. HistoryB. FashionC. SportD. Environment第(十)篇Steven Spielberg is the world’s most famous director.

2020年中考英语复习【阅读理解题】专题训练卷7姓名25.Around 200years ago,a well﹣known English poet called John Keats attacked science.He said that British scientist Isaac Newton had unweaved(拆解)the rainbow.Newton explained how light forms a rainbow.For Keats,this explanation meant rainbows could no longer be beautiful.This is just one example of many.We often hear people talk of problems with science,or say that it is boring.Some people,like Keats,also say that science takes away the beauty of the world.But is this fair?First of all,science helps us get things done.We need to study science to produce certain kinds of people.After all,where would we be without engineers and doctors?When you are studying science in school,remember that one day you might be using that knowledge to build a bridge,or save a life.Next time you use your phone to send a message,remember that this is possible thanks to science.When Keats criticized(批判)Newton,the very paper he wrote on was created through science.Beyond helping society and getting things done,science also makes us think in a certain way.It asks us to believe things only through evidence.It teaches us never to trust our assumptions(假设).It teaches us that sometimes,the truth is stranger than fiction.When you study science,remember what it means.Science has changed the world,and it can change you too.Humans once looked up at rainbows,and said that they were beautiful.Science explained them,and they were no longer recondite to us.But discovery never stops.Through science,we can find new rainbows:mysteries that lie beyond the stars themselves.1.Why did John Keats criticize Newton around 200years ago?A.Because he was angry that Newton didn't like rainbows.B.Because he didn't believe what Newton said about rainbows.C.Because he thought Newton's explanation took away the beauty of rainbow.D.Because he thought rainbows would disappear because of Newton's explanation.2.Which of the following is the way science makes us think?A.Believing things only through evidence.B.Believing what we see with our eyes.C.Believing what is said in books.D.Believing things are beautiful.3.The underlined word"recondite"in Paragraph 4means"".A.secretB.famousC.beautifulD.powerful4.The best title for the passage can be.A.How Can We Get the Truth?B.The History of Natural ScienceC.Why Should We Study Science?D.The Things We Need to Do for Science.26.A thief entered the bedroom of the 30th President of the United States,who met him and helped him run away from punishment.The event happened in the early morning hours in one of the

was a severe (严重的)scar (伤疤)that covered nearly the whole right side of her face.可知男孩的妈妈是丑陋的.又根据第二段At the meeting,the people were impressed (留下深刻的印象)by the kindness of his mother with the scar,在家长会上她的善良给人留下深刻印象,及下文中男孩的妈妈向老师讲述她从火灾中救出男孩的事情,可知男孩的妈妈虽然脸上有伤疤,但是非常善良的,故选择D.34.B.推理判断题.根据To the little boy's dismay (沮丧),his mother said she would go.可知小男孩起初是不想让妈妈去参加家长会的,故选择B.35.D.主旨大意题.根据文章大意可知小男孩因为妈妈脸上有伤疤不愿意她去参加家长会,后来从妈妈和老师的谈话中得知她是为了救自己才有伤疤的,所以无论我们的父母长相如何我们都应该尊重他们.故选择D.【点评】本文是一篇故事类记叙文,主要讲述了一个小男孩因为妈妈脸上有伤疤不愿意她去参加家长会,后来从妈妈和老师的谈话中得知她是为了救自己才有伤疤的故事.文章篇幅短小,内容浅显易懂,只要认真阅读文章,都可在文中找到相对应的答案或者依据.28.Einstein

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? ( )A.The birdhouse.B.Air quality.C.Air pollution.2.People can get a free Wi-Fi connection when .( )①people are standing nearby②the pollution level is low enough③the air quality is low enoughA.①②B.②③C.①③3.Joris designed a screen for the birdhouse to . ( )A.receive the free Wi-Fi connectionB.protect the birdhouse from the rainC.show information about the air quality4.In the future, the birdhouse will also be used .( )A.as a home for birdsB.to tell us the weatherC.to give us the oxygenB [2020·淄博]How can cactus(仙人掌) help the world? 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. Smart homes are part of it.For example, your toaster can automatically(自动地) start making breakfast after your alarm rings. And if its sensor feels the air becoming dry, a smart sprinkler(洒水器) could water your plants by itself.1.What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the third paragraph? ( )A.To explain 5G is the best of all.B.To share his knowledge about 5G.C.To encourage people to use the new network technology.D.To show the development of mobile network technology.2.What does the underlined word “delay” in Paragraph 4 mean in Chinese? ( )A.卡顿B.延时C.暂停D.掉线3.Which of the following ways is not mentioned that 5G will change people’s lives? ( )A.Health care.B.Entertainment.C.Transport.D.Smart homes.4.What will people do possibly with 5G according to the passage? ( )A.Download a movie in minutes.B.Put everything onto the Internet.C.Make self-driving cars safer.D.Make food more easily and faster.5.What’s the main idea of the passage?

专项训练七 节假日活动时间:8~10分钟/篇 分值:2分/小题Passage 1(2018福州)In Britain, Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th, which is the following day after Christmas Day. However, strictly speaking, Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is a public holiday. This means it's a nonworking day in the whole of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday.The exact origin(起源) of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas Box was placed by a priest (神父) on each ship. Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box. It was sealed_up and kept on board until the ship came home safely. Then the box was handed over to the priest in the exchange for the saying of a Mass of thanks for the success of the sailing. The priest wouldn't open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.One more thought is about the “Alms Box” placed in every church on Christmas Day. Worshippers (做礼拜的人) put gifts for the poor into it. These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas, that is why that day became known as Boxing Day.Today, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating (捐赠) their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping families in need. Besides, spending time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now.( )1. If Christmas Day is on a Saturday, Boxing Day will be celebrated on ________.A. December 25thB.

At the moment we're staying near Uluru—that's the aboriginal(土著) name for Ayers Rock. On the first day, we took a balloon tour over the rock, and I was surprised at how big it was: 3.6 kilometers long and 384 meters high. The colors of the rock are fantastic, and at different times of the day, they change from purple to red. The Aborigines are the first people of Australia, and the ancient aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world. Uluru is a center of Aboriginal culture.The Australians have many British relatives. That's why they're like us in many ways. Their family life is similar to ours, and they enjoy the same food and hobbies. The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes, lamb, ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country. They love all sports, but football is the most popular. Most Australians live near the coast, so they also love going to the beach, swimming and surfing.Although it's December, it's summer over here. The sunshine is very bright, and near the coast the countryside is very green. There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills, but the outback(澳洲内陆) is more like a desert, full of rocks and sand.The next day after we arrived at Uluru, we went on a camel(骆驼) ride. The camel that I rode had a bad temper. When I sat on its back, it became very angry and refused me. So everyone else thought it was very funny that my camel kept lying down...Finally, later this evening, we're taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home, it's been a fantastic trip!Tony( )1.

It's a good chance to work on different activities that you don't have much time to do during the rest of the year.We asked about 2,000 people what they would do during the summer vacation. Most of the surveytakers agreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax.Alexis said, “At school, I'm really tired, so during the summer vacation I can read books and do many outdoor activities.”Amy is in high school. After school, she sometimes works in a cafe. She told us, “It's a chance to relax after a hard school year—sleep more, and see my friends more.”We also asked them if they would be too busy or kind of bored. About half (52%) of the surveytakers said they would be busy during the summer vacation but still have time to relax. And that is exactly how it should be.But not everyone said their summer vacation would be the right balance (平衡) between being busy and relaxing. Many thought that they would be too bored.How bored or busy people feel during the summer vacation depends on how old they are. Surveytakers in their early teens were more likely (可能的) to be bored.

2020中考英语复习方案 第三篇 中考题型集训 阅读理解07 科技说明试题 人教新目标版
阅读理解(七) 科技说明A[2019·泰安]Earlier this year, China achieved a new milestone(里程碑) in space research. On January 3,2019,Chang’e—4 became the first lunar probe(月球探测器) in history to successfully land on the far side of the moon。
The Earth’s gravity(重力) slows the moon’s rotation(自转),matching it to the speed of its orbit(公转). Therefore, the far side of the moon is almost “dark" and has never been seen. It's this sense of the unknown that makes the far side of the moon such an interesting place for scientific and space research. Being blown by solar(太阳的)winds, the far side may have the special minerals(矿物质). For this reason, Chang’e—4 will study the effect of solar winds on the lunar surface and any mineral found by the spacecraft. Chang’e-4 is also carrying flower seeds, potatoes and silkworm eggs to see whether life is possible on the moon.If it is, then the moon will become a possible choice for space travel in the future.However, research of the “dark" side isn’t easy。
