Whenever my child caused me to change my schedule(计划), I thought to myself, “We don’t have 31 for this.”So, the two words I most commonly spoke to my child were: “Hurry up”. But my promise to slow down was made almost three years ago, and I began my journey to grasp (领会) what 32 in life.My younger daughter is my living reminder of why I must 33 trying to slow down.The two of us had taken a bike ride to the supermarket. After buying an ice cream for my daughter, she sat down at a table 193419 looking at the ice cream she held in her hand. Suddenly a look of worry came across her 35 . “Do I have to rush, Mama?”I could have cried. Perhaps the pains of a hurried life don’t ever completely disappear, I thought sadly. As my child looked up at me waiting to know if she could take her time, I 36I had a choice. I could sit there in sorrow (悲伤) thinking about the number of times when I rushed my child through life…or I could celebrate the fact that today I’m trying to do things differently. I chose to live in today.“You don’t have to rush,” I said gently. Her whole face immediately brightened and her shoulders relaxed. And so we sat side-by-side talking. There were even 37 when we sat in silence just smiling at each other.When she got to the 38 bite (一口), she held out a spoonful of ice crystals (冰晶) and sweet juice for me. “I 39 the last bite for you, Mama,” my daughter said proudly. I realized I just got the deal of a lifetime. I gave my child a little time… and in return, she gave me her last bite and reminded me that things taste sweeter and love comes 40 when you stop rushing through life.31.

My friends and I were taking photos in the street of Vienna, trying to record the beauty of a foreign country. The change in climate had made my contacts (隐形眼镜) dry out quite often, so I was wearing my glasses.But I didn’t think the glasses looked good on me, so for any photo I was in, I would take them off. When I took them off in front of Vienna State Opera, I heard a tiny “ping!”—a screw (螺丝) fell off my glasses and they separated in half.Hurriedly, my friends and I began to search for the tiny screw. We looked everywhere, but it was nowhere to be found. I was close to tears. How could I enjoy the rest of my trip if I could see nothing clearly?!Just at that moment, my friend saw a store with a sign in German whose windows were full of various pairs of glasses. To try our luck, we raced into the store. Not speaking any German, we did our best to explain the situation. A friendly old man smiled gently and took my glasses into the back of the store.After a while, he came back into the room. Smiling softly, he handed me my glasses, fully fixed. I tried to ask the man how much it would cost. However, the man just smiled at me and said, “For you? I will do it for free.”That is the kindest thing a stranger has ever done for me. While I was in a foreign country and unable to even speak his language, this man, with a business to run, still gifted me that tiny, necessary screw—thus the ability to see for the rest of my trip and also a memory to be treasured.24．What happened in front of Vienna State Opera?A．The writer fell to the ground.B．The writer’s contacts dried out.C．The writer made new friends.D．The writer’s glasses broke apart. 25．How did the writer feel when she found the store?A．Regretful.B．Hopeful.C．Interested.D．Disappointed. 26．The writer will treasure the memory because ________.A．she was moved by a stranger B．she was gifted a set of screwsC．she liked the view in Vienna D．she picked up a new languageMost kids know it’s wrong to shout at or hit someone. But what if that someone is Alexa—an AI (Artificial Intelligence人工智能) speaker, or Roomba—a robot cleaner?A new study by Teresa Flanagan, a developmental psychologist from Duke University, found that kids aged four to eleven felt neither Roomba nor Alexa should be shouted at or attacked. However, that feeling weakened as kids grew into their teens.Flanagan was inspired to do the research after watching some movies about robots. “In those movies, we see adults interacting with robots in terrible ways,” said Flanagan. “But how would kids interact with them?”Flanagan invited 127 children aged four to eleven to take part in the study. The kids were asked to watch a video of the two devices (设备) and then answer a few questions, like whether it was wrong to attack AI devices and how smart and sensitive they thought Alexa was compared to Roomba. Flanagan studied the survey data and found something encouraging.Overall, kids decided that both Alexa and Roomba, unlike humans, probably weren’t ticklish (怕痒) and wouldn’t feel pain when they got hit. However, they gave Alexa, but not Roomba, high marks for mental and emotional abilities, such as being able to think or getting upset when someone was mean to it.“Young children think Alexa, even without a body, has emotions and a mind,” Flanagan said. “But they don’t think Roomba does—maybe that has something to do with Alexa’s ability to have verbal(语音的) communication.”Although they believed the two intelligent devices had different abilities, children acrossall ages agreed it was wrong to hit or shout at the machines. However, the older kids got, the more they reported it would be more acceptable to attack devices.The findings offer new ideas about the changing relationship between children and intelligent devices and raise important questions about how we are supposed to treat them in general and as parents. Should adults, for example, model good behavior for their kids by thanking AI devices for their help?For now, Flanagan is trying to understand why children think it is wrong to attack intelligent devices.27．Why does Flanagan mention some movies in Paragraph 3?A．To present how robots influence children.B．To stress the importance of AI technology.C．To explain where the research idea came from.D．To show the popularity of children’s TV shows.28．What can we learn from the passage?A．Adults set a good example on treating AI.B．Flanagan studied the data with the help of AI.C．Alexa has more physical feelings than Roomba.D．Younger kids hold a friendlier attitude to AI devices.29．What will Flanagan probably do next?A．Examine what good manners kids show toward AI.B．Test whether Alexa is much smarter than Roomba.C．Survey how adults interact with intelligent devices.D．Study why kids think AI is worthy of nice treatment.Awe is the feeling of amazement and respect mixed with surprise. Research shows that awe experiences decrease stress and anxiety and increase positive (积极的) emotions and overall satisfaction in life. It can also improve our relationships, making us more likely to help others and more supported.Most of us connect awe with something unusual and beautiful: nature, music or a spiritual experience. But ordinary people can bring about awe too. Research shows we can be awed by our nearest and dearest—the people sitting next to us, or talking on the other end of the phone. Psychologists call this interpersonal awe.B．try to get a full picture of other peopleC．watch carefully how others do their jobsD．learn from an expert in positive psychology32．The writer would probably agree that ________.A．awe often comes from senses of satisfactionB．awe moments are usually very difficult to createC．nature provides the most awe in our everyday lifeD．recalling awe experiences strengthens relationships33．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．Respond to Awe in Everyday LifeB．Spread Awe to People AroundC．Express Thanks to Awesome PeopleD．Take down Awesome Moments五、阅读回答问题阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

This becomes a problem, because most families love home cooking! The food tastes good and warm, and a family meal brings everyone together. In some families, meals are often the only times everyone sees one another at the same time.Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying (满足) a child’s sweet tooth. She or he is sending a message. The message says, “I care about you enough to spend an hour making cookies that you will eat up in 15 minutes if I let you.”There is also something about the smell of home cooking. The smell of home cooking pleases people of all ages. It makes most of us feel good and loved—even if we are the ones doing the cooking! Next time you smell a cake making, stop for a moment and pay attention to your mood (心情).1．Why do fewer people cook now?A．Many people are too busy. B．Because they are too tired to cook.C．Many people don’t like cooking. D．They don’t like family meals.2．The writer thinks a family meal .A．is a waste of time B．makes children happyC．is difficult for people to cook D．can bring family members together3．A parent spends an hour making cookies .A．only to send a message B．often to show her or his loveC．jus t to satisfy her or his child’s sweet tooth D．to let a child eat up in 15 minutes 4．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A．Many people have no time to cook these days.B．The smell of home cooking makes most of us feel good.C．It becomes a problem that most families love home cooking.D．There are quite a few reasons that people love home cooking.5．What’s the main idea of this passage?A．How to make cookies.

（共26 分，每小题2 分）ANothing sounds better than a swim on a hot summer day. However, many teens, including some who are good swimmers drown each year. Whensomeone is drowning,it’s often silent and happens very quickly. Butit can be prevented ( 预防).Here are some tips on how to preventdrowning when you go for a swim.21 You should go swimming with adultsand make sure that they are able to keep you safe. It’s important to have an adult nearby watch for danger.22 Go in feet first so that you can know how deep the water is. Swimming in unsafe water can lead to serious injuries ( 伤害).Warm up before swimming. Take some time to stretch ( 拉伸) your body before you enter the water. Get your body prepared and safety will surely follow.23 Many schools and training centers now offer classes to learn these skills. CPR is one of the lifesaving skills that can help others who are near drowning.Choose swimming areas carefully.Don’t go to the swimming areas that you don’t know well. Choose the areas with safety facilities ( 设施).Remember:it’s always important to call for help first in a dangerous situa tion! All in all, keep swimming safety in mind when you are in and around the water.A. Learn lifesaving skills.B. Let’s swim on a hot summer day.C. Enter the water carefully and feet first.D. Never swim alone — even for a moment.BThis was our last trip before high school. I had been looking forward to it for weeks. But at the roller coaster, my stomach felt too tight to say anything at all.The big girl beside us was Tasha, my best friend Dan’s sister.She was a singer. She was fantastic on the stage. Just the image ofher up there made me think she was so cool.Our roller coaster car pulled up, and my friends rushed forward, I felt my legs couldn’t move. All I could think about was the roller coaster might fly off into the sky.Without a word, I turned, ran out of the line. I knew what people were saying about me, but I didn’t care. I just kept moving past the crowd, found a bench ( 长椅) near the bathrooms to sit down and put my head in my hands.“Hey! Steve! Are you okay? ” I looked up. It was Tasha!“Oh, uh, yeah, I just started feeling, um, sick.” I responded.“You know, it’s okay if you were scared. Everyone gets scared.” She said.“You don’t.” I said in a low voice. “I’ve seen you on that stage. You were fearless.”“I’m glad it looks like I’m not scared!” Tasha smiled. “But that’s not true. I get really scaredand nervous before I perform.”Before I noticed she was on the bench by my side, her words moved on.“Hey, look, singing is important to me. And I want to share what I love wi th my people. So, even if I’m scared. I do it anyway. I push through the fear and just get up and do it. Is taking roller coaster important to you?”“Yeah, it is. And I want to be able to look back and remember having fun with my friends. I don’t want to remember running away and sitting alone by the bathrooms.”“Everyone gets scared, but brave people don’t let fear control them.” She looked into my eyes.

However, eating too much junk food can harm your body,especially if you’re between the agesof 10 and 19. “Junk food shapesteenage brains in ways that harm their abilityto think, learn and remember.It can also make it harder to control impulsive ( 冲动的) behaviors,” saidAmy Reichelt, at Western University, Canada. “It mayeven raise a teen’srisk of mental ( 精神上的) problems.”Reichelt and two other researchers reviewed more than 100 studies,about how poor food choices can affect teenage brains. They found teenagers are more sensitive ( 敏感的) than any other age group to foods with a lot of fat and sugar as their brains are not yet fully formed.Teenage brains are still developing the ability to notice risks and control actions. The prefrontal cortex ( 前额皮质) is the part of the brain that tells us we shouldn’t eat chips all the time and helps us contro l ourselves. However, this part doesn’t fully develop until we are in our early 20s.Meanwhile, teen brains get more excited from rewards ( 奖励). The parts of the brain thatmake us feel good when we do something enjoyable — like eating tasty foods — are fully developed by the teen years.In fact, these parts are even more sensitive when we are young. That’s because dopamine ( 多巴胺), a natural chemical that makes us feel happy when we experience something good, is especially active in teenage brains.Therefore, the teen brain has two attacks against it when it comes to saying no to junk food. “It has an increased drive for rewards and reduced self-control,” said Reichelt.Reichelt and her team did their own study using mice, whose brains develop much like our own. They discovered that “teenage” mice that had high-fat foods performed worse on memory tests than those eating normal foods. Researchers said the high-fat foods may make the mice’s prefrontal cortex work less effectively.S o, what’s the best way to say no to junk food? The answer is exercise. When we exercise, the brain becomes less sensitive to food, besides this, it also helps our brains grow and become better able to make wise decisions and control our behaviors.27. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?A. What problems are caused by junk food.B. What junk food teenagers like most.C. How junk food harms teenage brains.D. How junk food shapes teenage brains.28. What can we learn from the studies mentioned in the passage?A. Teenagers are less sensitive than any other age group to junk food.B. Junk food may make people’s prefrontal cortex work less effectively.C. Dopamine helps our brains become better able to make wise decisions.D. The prefrontal cortex makes us happy when we do something enjoyable.29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Teenage BrainsB. Healthy Food for TeenagersC. Food for ThoughtD. Exercise: the Best for BrainsDHumans are getting away from the nature gradually becauseof the developing technology. But now Digital ( 数字的) Technology is offering us an opportunity to listen tothe sounds in the nature in powerful ways, making us get closer to the worldsof animals and plants.All around the nature, there are sounds that we struggle to pick up andunderstand. Elephants, for example, communicate with each other using infrasound, a sound farbelow our human hearing range. Coral ( 珊瑚) in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves, with one purpose of attracting baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow. This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears!To pick up sounds humans are normally unable to hear, scientists have placed listening devices ( 装置) in these environments. Researchers have attached ( 连接) tiny microphones to honeybees ( 蜜蜂) and turtles, and stuck listening posts that can receive different sound waves from coral reefs ( 礁) and trees. These devices are controlled by computers and networked with digital sensors and satellites. When interconnected, these digital devices work like a hearing aid ( 助听器): enabling humans to observe and record nature’s sounds beyond the limits of our own listening ability. After the sounds are recorded, AI is then able to determine their meanings.With this technology, humans can not only understand the animals, but also communicate back to them. For example, a team of researchers in Germany decoded the honeybees’ behavior with AI. Then they taught tiny robots how to do the honeybee dance. Using these dancing machines, the scientists were able to order the honeybees to stop moving, and to communicate where to fly to collect a specific nectar. In addition to the possibility of speaking with animals, the research could also be used to create a form of healing for animals and plants. That’s to say, in the near future, scientists might be able to get coral to grow in certain areas by playing “healthy reef” sounds, which could help some of the damage we have caused to become healthy again.Now, Digital Technology provides a new way for humans to listen to the lively sounds all around us. The dream of allowing humans to communicate with different animals and plants throughout the nature is being on its way.30. Which of the following is NOT true about listening devices?A. AI can help to explain the meanings of nature’s sounds.B. The hearing aid collects the sounds from the animals or plants.C. Scientists need to connect the devices with computers and networks.D. The devices can record nature’s sounds beyond people’s listening ability.31. The word “healing” in Paragraph 4 probably means “”.A. feedingB. killingC. repairingD. designing32. What can you infer from the last paragraph?A. Scientists are likely to discover a new way of recording.B. Humans will have better communication with the nature.C. It’s possible for people to dance with the honeybee together.D. Digital Technology can be used to communicate with anything.33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To discuss how to control listening devices.B. To compare different ways for communication.C. To introduce a technology to get closer to the nature.D. To suggest how to improve people’s listening ability.2022年北京市燕山区中考二模英语试题三、阅读单选Exercise responsibly During the pandemic (疫情), you’d better exercise at home.

As she stood in front of 5th grade class on the very first day of school, she told her students that she loved them all the same.But that was impossible because Teddy Stoddard sat in the front row. Mrs. Thompson saw the little b oy at school the year before. She noticed that he didn’t play well with other children. His clothes were always messy and he needed a bath. Teddy could be unpleasant.So, she was surprised when she read Teddy’s first grade teacher’s record, “Teddy is a br ight child with a cheerful laugh.” His second grade teacher wrote, “Teddy is an excellent student. He is troubled because his mother is sick. Life at home may be hard.” His third grade teacher wrote, “His mother’s death has been hard on him.” Teddy’s fourth grade teacher wrote, “Teddy is lonely and doesn’t show much interest in school.”By now, Mrs. Thompson saw the problem and felt bad for judging Teddy. That day, she didn’t teach reading, writing or math. Instead she started teaching her students how to be kind to each other.Over the school year, Mrs. Thompson paid lots of attention to Teddy. His mind seemed to come alive and his grades improved. By the end of the year, Teddy was doing better in school. He also had more friends than before.Years later, Teddy wrote to Mrs. Thompson. “Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for making me feel important and showing me that I could make a difference.”Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, replied, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taugh t me that I could make a difference. I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.”24．What surprised Mrs. Thompson when she read Teddy’s first record?A．Teddy grew up without parents. B．Teddy was slowly making progress.

They are often sold at 10% to 30% of the market price,” Liu said. “More impor tantly, most of them are from big brands(品牌). Why wouldn’t I love them?”Liu is among the increasing number of Chinese people who enjoy buying near-expired food at much cheaper prices. According to the latest report by iiMedia Research, the near-expired food industry had a market size of over 30 billion yuan in 2020. 47.8% of the consumers (消费者) are aged between 26 and 35.Unlike the traditional thinking that buying such goods makes them feel shy, more and more young people consider it as a kind of sustainable consumption (可持续消费) that can help reduce food waste.“I don’t care much about the date as long as I can eat it before its expiry. It meets my needs while saving resources and protecting the environment, which is a good thing,” Wu Lin, a19-year-old college student and a fan of near-expired food, told Xinhua.Actually, food waste is a great challenge for China and other countries. According to a 2020 report from the National People’s Congress, about 18 billion kilograms of food is wasted every year in China’s urban catering industry (城镇餐饮业).“As more Chinese people choose to buy near-expired food, the food waste will be reduced,” said Liu.According to CGTN, China had the tradition of saving food leading to the 1990s.As people’s lives improved greatly, many began to make or order more food than could be consumed, CGTN reported. But the trend (趋势) of buying near-expired food may suggest that the Chinese virtue (美德) of frugality (节约) is coming back.“I’ve been very frugal all my life. Living through a serious famine (饥荒), I’m used to saving every grain and every penny,” a woman born in the 1950s, told CGTN. “I’m happy to see more young people joining our group.”27．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Old consumers don’t like near-expired snacks or drinks.B．Most of food from big brands is at cheaper prices in Sanlitun.C．Liu Fang goes to Sanlitun to sell near-expired food every week.D．More Chinese people enjoy buying near-expired food at much cheaper prices now. 28．What is the influence of buying near-expired food in China according to CGTN? A．Young people won’t buy expensive things.B．People don’t like caring about the production date.C．More and more people won’t buy food at right prices.D．The Chinese virtue of frugality may return to our daily life.29．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The Chinese traditional virtue of frugality.B．The success of the near-expired food business.C．A new shopping trend among young consumers.D．Different opinions about buying near-expired food.Visit a middle or large size of company these days, and you’re likely to find the staff (全体职工) members sharing a large, open space. Instead of having personal offices with doors and walls, most workers sit in cubicles that are half open. Whenever workers talk on the phone, other members of staff nearby can’t simply shut their doors. In fact, sometimes they can’t help but overhear everything that’s said. At times, the best way to focus in this ty pe of office is to reach for one’s headphones and listen to music.The open office idea is not new. It was created by a team of consultants (顾问) from Hamburg, Germany, in the 1950s. Called the office landscape (景观) plan, the idea was created to improve communication and the exchange of ideas. The design also encouraged managers and their teams to work near each other, making it easier for managers to guide projects. Now, the open office idea is often used as an excuse for companies to save money on building costs, paying no attention to the effect on working performance.Many start-ups have a great interest in the open office idea. Take Chartbeat for example, the company’s 50-plus staff members get to choose their desk and chair styles, and everyone shares an open space with the CEO sitting in the middle. The office space has both single workstations and informal meeting areas where workers can relax themselves on sofas. While this design may be perfect for workers in start-ups, it may not be convenient for workers who have a great need of personal space.In 2011 Matthew Davis, an organizational psychologist (心理学家), checked over a hundred studies about office environments. He found that, to staff in open offices, it was harder to stay focused and more likel y to get higher stress than those working in traditional offices. What’s worse, a study in Denmark found that workers in open offices took more sick days than those working in traditional offices.Even though open office plans present hidden problems on worker health and personal needs, businesses probably won’t return to traditional offices. Modern office workers tend (倾向) to need both time to focus and time to work together with others. So designing offices that account forboth needs may be the best way forward.30．What is mainly discussed about the open office in paragraph 1?A．The benefit. B．The problem. C．The history. D．The management. 31．What was the purpose of the office landscape plan at the beginning?A．To save space. B．To reduce cost.C．To improve working conditions. D．To encourage communication. 32．What does the underlined phrase “account for” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Include. B．Record. C．Forget. D．Translate. 33．What can we learn from the passage?A．Working in open offices can reduce higher stress.B．The writer suggests working in traditional offices.C．Staff members like wearing headphones to listen to music in the open offices.D．The open offices are good for managers to guide projects and work with the staff.2021年北京市燕山区中考二模英语试题三、阅读单选Don’t you think robots are a part of your life? In factories, robots put together everything from toys to cars. Some homes have robots that sweep floors or mow the lawn (剪草坪). And more robots are soon to come.Like a Human Robots don’t expect any thanks for all the work theydo for us. After all, they don’t have feelings. But that may bechanging with Nexi, a robot created by scientists at theMassachusetts Institute of Technology. Nexi can move its face toshow anger, happiness or sadness. It can also raise its eyebrows ( 眉毛) to show surprise.Household Helpers How would you like a robot to help clean upyour toys, or one that plays hide-and-seek with you? Nao can beprogrammed to do both those activities, and more. A two-foot-tallrobot, Nao was designed by a company in France to be a helper andcompanion ( 伙伴). It can talk, walk and even remember faces,voices and places.Robots at Work Need a lift out of bed? RIBA, short for “Robot forInteractive Body Assistance”, will lend its helpful arms! Somepatients at hospitals and nursing homes have a hard time getting inand out of bed. RIBA can gently lift a patient out of bed and helphim or her into a wheelchair ( 轮椅).Water Bots Robots that work in water—and look like sea creatures( 生物)—are making news lately. One of them is a robotic fish.Researchers built the robotic fish to swim in water to find outpollution. There’s even a robotic penguin ( 企鹅) called the AP,which can move in water in all directions.21．By moving its ________, Nexi might show its anger, happiness or sadness.A．head B．face C．arm D．leg22．If a patient needs a lift out of bed, which may be a good helper?A．Nexi. B．Nao. C．RIBA．D．AP. 23．According to the passage, a robotic fish might be used for ________.A．discovering fish B．picking up rubbishC．studying sea creatures D．finding out pollution“It’s a waste of time,” I said when my mom told me to join Madcaps, a mothers and daughters club that helps charities ( 慈善). When she told me I had to volunteer at a homeless shelter ( 收容所), I thought that things could not get worse.We got there late and walked to the dirty homeless shelter, where we saw a lady yelling(叫喊) at the security guard. He dealt with her and then led us to the kitchen, where we ran into our five fellow Madcaps mothers and daughters.Then homeless people started to walk in and a little girl, around five years old, walked up and pointed to the food I was handing out. I handed her a cold sandwich and she nodded to say thanks. She then walked over to her parents, who were seated at a large table.As she walked away, I thought about how much I had. I go to one of the top schools in San Diego, I have a great house by the water, and I have a warm meal every night. Then I thought of how little she had. She probably didn’t go to school, and that is where she sleeps and eats every day. That little girl makes me realize just how lucky I am.After that moment, I had a change of heart. Now, I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting.I have little trouble socializing with others and now have many friends to play and chat with.I believe that if you have an open mind about things, you can learn a lot about yourself and the people in your community. You can make new friends and realize how lucky you are. I believe you can make a difference just by doing something that you don’t want to do.24．What did the writer see in the shelter when she arrived?A．The shelter was full of homeless kids.B．A lady was yelling at the security guard.C．A little girl was waiting for her sandwich.D．There were only mothers and daughters in the shelter.25．Comparing with the little girl, the writer realized that ________.A．she should study hardB．she was a lucky personC．she actually had a poor lifeD．she should take part in more school clubs26．What happened to the writer after her experience in Madcaps?A．She didn’t miss anybody from the club.B．She didn’t worry about her life anymore.C．She became more open-minded about life.D．She found it easy to communicate with homeless people.Chocolate-there’s nothing quite like it, is there? Chocolate is simply delicious. What is chocolate? Where does it come from?The history of chocolate goes back to the discovery of cacao beans. About 4,000 years ago, the Americans made cacao beans into a drink and they took it as a gift from nature.In 1519, the Spanish explorer Hernando Cortex visited Mexico in America. He saw people drink cacao mixed with spices (香料). Cortex took some cacao home as a gift to the Spanish King Charles. Since then, people in Spain began to drink cacao. However, the nature taste of cacao was too bitter for most people.To sweeten it, Spanish added sugar and honey to it. As a sweet drink, it became popular in Europe. By the 17th century, rich people in Europe began drinking cacao drink as a fashion.In 1828, a Dutch chemist, Conrad J. van Houten started using a new process to remove the fat from cacao beans. He made a machine that pressed the fat from the beans. The resulting powder ( 粉末) mixed better with water than cacao did. People called van Houten’s cacao powder “Dutch chocolate”-it is the beginning of modern chocolate.After that, chocolate makers started trying new recipes ( 配方) with Dutch chocolate. First it was mixed with sugar. Then butter was added to the sweetened chocolate to make chocolate bars. In 1849, an English chocolate maker successfully made the first chocolate bar. In the 19th century, the Swiss started making milk chocolate by mixing powdered milk. Milk chocolate has not changed much since this process was invented.Today the United States buys most of chocolate in the world, but the Swiss eat the most chocolate per person. The most chocolate eaten today is sweet milk chocolate, but people also eat white chocolate and dark chocolate. Chocolate has become a worldwide snack and also a popular holiday gift.27．What did the Americans think of cacao drink about 4,000 years ago?A．It was easy to make. B．It was too bitter to drink.C．It was a gift for the rich. D．It was treasure from nature.28．Who invented milk chocolate?A．The Swiss. B．Hernando Cortex.C．An English chocolate maker. D．Conrad J. van Houten.29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The United States buys and eats most of chocolate in the world.B．People called Conrad J. van Houten the father of “Dutch chocolate”.C．Chocolate became popular in Spain when Cortex took some cacao home.D．People like to eat sweet milk chocolate, white chocolate and dark chocolate today. 30．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The tastes of chocolate. B．The history of chocolate.C．The makers of chocolate. D．The benefits of chocolate.As online learning becomes more common. Now more and more resources (资源) are convertedto digital (数码的) form. Some people have suggested that public libraries should be shut down and, in their place, everyone should be given an iPad with an e-reader subscription (订阅).Supporters of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns money because the operating costs of libraries are expensive. They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they won’t have to travel to a library to get a book. They can simply click on what they want to read and read it from wherever they are.However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with tablets (平板电脑). First, digital books and resources are related to less learning and more problems than print resources. A study done on tablet vs book reading found people read 20-30% slower on tablets, keep 20% less information, and understand 10% less of what they read compared to people who read the same information in print.Second, it is not open-minded to state that the only service libraries offer is book lending. Libraries have lots of benefits, and many are only usable if the library has a physical location. Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to commu nicate。

She had been looking forward to this day for weeks, and nothing could dampen her spirits （影响兴致）. As she and her classmates walked through the zoo, they came across a group of monkeys.Lily was attracted by the monkeys and started taking pictures with her phone. As she was about to move on, she noticed one monkey that seemed different. It wasn’t moving around or playing with the others. Instead, it was sitting alone, looking sad and lonely.Lily couldn’t help but feel sorry for the monkey. She wondered why it was alone and why it seemed so sad. As she walked away, the image of the lonely monkey stayed with her, and she couldn’t shake off the feeling that something wasn’t right.The next day, Lily decided to do some research about monkeys and their behavior. She learned that monkeys are social animals and need to be with others of their kind to be happy and healthy. She also learned that many monkeys in captivity （圈养）suffer from loneliness and depression.Lily couldn’t stop thinking about the lonely monkey in the zoo. She knew she had to do something to help. She reached out to the zoo and asked if there was anything they could do for the monkey. The zookeeper explained that they were aware of the monkey’s situation and were working on finding it a monkey for company.Lily was less worried to hear that the zoo was taking actions, but she didn’t stop there. She started an event at her school to raise money for the zoo to build a monkey sanctuary （保护区）. She talked to her classmates, teachers, and parents, and everyone was eager to help.Within a few weeks, Lily had raised enough money to build a monkey sanctuary at the zoo. The monkey from the zoo was moved to the sanctuary and was soon joined by othermonkeys, and they all seemed happy and satisfied.24．What drew Lily’s attention when she took pictures?A．Monkeys’ behavior.B．Her smart phone.C．A sad and lonely monkey.D．A group of monkeys.25．Why did she do some research about monkeys and their behavior?A．To know more about monkeys.B．To help the zookeeper.C．To start an event at her school.D．To raise money for the zoo. 26．From Lily’s experience, we learn that she ________.A．cares about animals B．hates field tripsC．loves money-raising D．likes to take photosStudents may feel a little bit nervous when they are faced with an exam. They may start to sweat and grow short of breath. They may even become so fearful that they can’t focus or think. This is known as test anxiety, which can stop students in their tracks.Stress causes different levels of anxiety. Good stress causes just enough worry to get someone to focus on a task and do it well. Bad stress, however, does just the opposite. Instead of helping someone to focus, bad stress may make a person not able to think or focus clearly. This stress response hurts more than it helps. So students should learn how to deal with anxiety and do well on exams in different ways.The first step involves keeping good stress from turning into bad stress. The best way to do this is to prepare the mind and the body. Instead of treating a test as a big challenge, you can use it as a motivator（动力）to learn. Prepare by making sure you understand what you will be tested on. This will help you do well.The next step is knowing about your body and recognizing the signs of anxiety before it happens. Metacognition can help you achieve this. Metacognition is self-awareness of what the mind and body are up to in the moment. One way to think of it is by placing yourself on a “mental balcony” and evaluating yourself as if observing from above. Recognizing your own stress signals can help you figure out how to keep from experiencing increased anxiety.Relaxation fights anxiety. If you find yourself really panicked （惊慌失措）, take a moment to step back. Stop and close your eyes. Take deep breaths and think of a peaceful place to calm yourself down. As you relax, remind yourself that you have prepared and that all will be well.Remember, we all experience anxiety at times. Whether you’re taking a test, performing, or competing, you can apply anxiety—reducing strategies to keep cool. Using stress as a motivator instead of an obstacle can keep you from getting overly anxious. Coping with anxiety effectively will help you be your best for the test and for any other challenges you face.27．According to the passage, which of the following would reduce test anxiety? A．Keeping questions in mind.B．Placing yourself on a balcony. C．Allowing yourself to calm down.D．Focusing on your task all the time. 28．What can we learn from the passage?A．Stress signals can keep away test anxiety.B．Bad stress prevents a person from focusing or thinking.C．Using stress as an obstacle helps you do well in exams.D．Treating a test as a big challenge can reduce test anxiety.29．What is the passage mainly about?A．The ways to reduce test anxiety.B．The importance of having exams.

However, less is known about its effects in teens who are struggling to develop their characters and plan for their future, according to the study led by educational psychology professor Kaylin Ratner.“Teens who scored high on purposefulness were more satisfied with their lives and experienced more positive emotions and fewer negative emotions, ” said Ratner. “When these teens felt more purposeful than usual, they also tended to experience greater wellbeing.”The project also examined some behavioral and cognitive （认知）patterns related to these teens’ sense of purpose in life and their overall happiness.Each day for 70 days, the participants—teens ages 14—19 in a 10-week Learning Challenge project of their choosing—were asked to rate how purposeful they felt, how satisfied they were with their lives and the levels of positive and negative emotions they were五、阅读回答问题阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
