The more people, the more pollution. Air pollution is the most serious. It's bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only kind of pollution. Water pollution kills fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.()1.The world is becoming smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication.()2.Water pollution is the most serious pollution.()3.Two kinds of pollution are mentioned in the passage.()4.Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.()5.SO2 in the air pollution mainly comes from heavy traffic.B [2015·成都]We are collecting more news for our school English newspaper.

Besides, most of my classmates did not like to play with him because his hands and shirts were always dirty. I told him several times a day to wash his hands. I tried to let him know the importance of being clean. But he just could not hear. I really disliked him. But I didn't know how to change him.One day, our teacher Miss Hsieh walked to Ted.

16年中考英语复习专题练习《阅读理解2》及答案

2016年中考英语复习专题练习《阅读理解2》及答案2016年中考英语复习专题练习《阅读理解2》“Please take my penny,” said Maggie to old Dan, the fisherman, who sat on a bench repairing his nets. Her brother Andrew drew her back, whispering, “Maggie, he is not a beggar (乞丐)!” But Maggi e paid no attention. “Please take it,” she said again. Old Dan smiled, and took it. “Thank you, little miss,” he said, “It is kindly meant.” After that, Maggie went to the beach to gather shells. She never thought how fast the hours were passing until being tired, she sat down on a rock beside a little pool. Soon she was scared by a noise near her, and Dan?s large dog Rover jumped down from a rock! He licked her hands and made a loud noise, and then began gentlyto pull her coat. “Rover wishes me to com e away, I see,” she said, and she rose from the rock and began to go home. However, that was not so easy as she had expected. She found the places she had gone down easily very difficult to climb up, and as the tide (潮水) had been coming in for some time. She found some of the stones wet and smooth. What could poor Maggie do? She felt sad and cried, but the waves made a much louder noise than she could make, and perhaps she would have been drowned (淹死) without good wise Rover. Rover jumped upon a big stone and raised his loud bark until even the waves could not drown it. The fisherman had taken his nets to the top of the cliffs (悬崖), and was laying them out in the sun when he heard the loud barking of a dog. He felt sure that it was Rover, and Rover in trouble, so, going to the edge of the cliffs, he looked over. There he saw itall—Rover barking for help, and the little child standing beside him. “Bless her! It is the little one that was so kind-spoken to me this morning!” he cried, and he hurried to his sons? home. “Quick, boys, quick!” he said. “Get to the boat, and row fast to the bay (海湾). There is a poor child there just waiting to be drowned.” The fishermen lost no time, and soon little Maggie and Rover were rowed safely to land! Old Dan was waiting there to lift her out, and give her into her mother?s arms. “It was the penny that did it, madam,” he said to Mrs. Weston later. “I saw Rover looking at her when she put the penny so kind-like into my hand—just as if he would have said, ?Rover will be your friend now, little girl.? And I am thinking he had been looking after her all the day, for he never came near me after that.” Some years later, Rover came to Maggie?s home with a little note, in which waswritten—“Will Maggie help Rover?—his mast er is dead.” 1. Which word can best describe Maggie? A. Funny. A. Rover. B. Helpful. C. Creative. D. Silly. D. Andrew.2. Who rowed Maggie to land safely?B. Old Dan.C. Old Dan?s sons.3.

Maggie became Rover?s master at once after she was saved4. What can we learn from the passage? A. One kind act brings another. B. You should act and speak the same—kindly. C.

That day was the first day of a three-day national holiday marking the Tomb-Sweeping Day. Two people died in a local hospital where nine others are being treated. Another person died after treatment failed in a larger hospital in Wuxi where 22 remain hospitalized, Changzhou traffic police updated on its official microblog account at The accident happened at the Changzhou section of the highway linking Shanghai and Nanjing. It drew public attention as people began posting photos and videos on Chinese social media WeChat and Weibo. Images showed dozens of trucks, buses and cars crashed into each other. People were standing on top of the vehicles. Local police toldXinhua Press that at least two trucks, three buses and 20 cars were involved. Rainy and foggy weather caused poor visibility and slippery roads. What?s more, it was difficult for ambulances (救护车)to get to the scene of the accident because the life emergency lane was filled with vehicles, which delayed the rescue of the injured. The Ministry (部长) of Public Security told traffic departments nationwide to keep a look out for vehicles using the emergency lane occupancy. All highways in China leave the right lane as the emergency lane. Some drivers, however, pay no attention to this rule. Therefore, the police call on drivers to follow the rule strictly and offer the injured more hope of being saved. The ministry also asked the police to watch the traffic more carefully so as to quickly discover the potential (潜在的) danger. The police have decided to addelectronic monitoring instruments to catch the violations (违规者) and heavily fine drivers for it. 1.This passage is most probably taken from ________.A.a novel B.a play C.a news report D.a speech 2.Which of the following might be the cause of the traffic accident?

B.They want to catch as many violations as possible. C.They want to leave the injured more hope of being saved. D.They have received orders from Chinese social media WeChat and Weibo. When you make a mistake, big or small, treasure i t as it’s the most valuable thing in the world. Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, and get mad at ourselves. And that’s only natural: Most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, and we should try to avoid mistakes. We’ve been punished when we make mistakes —at home, school and work. Maybe not always, butprobably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction(无意识的反应). Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be treasured and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world: They make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible. By test and error —trying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes — we have found out how to make electric lights, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, and to fly. Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, and make works of genius(天才) possible. Think about how we learn: We don’t just get information about something and know it at once or know how to do it. You don’t just read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, orplaying the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from watching usually ... then you set a model in your mind ... then you test it out by trying it in the real world ... then you make mistakes ... then you correct the model based on the results of your real world experiment ... and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you’ve pretty much learned how to do something. That’s how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something new —because if you succeed in something, it’s probably something you already knew how to do. Y ou haven’t really grown much from that success —at most it’s the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey is made up of mistakes, if it’s a good journey. So ifyou value learning, if you value growing and improving, then you should value mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world full of wonders possible. 1. According to the passage, how should we treat mistakes? A. We should try to avoid making mistakes. B. We should owe great inventions mainly to mistakes. C. We should treat mistakes as good chances to learn. D. We should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction. 2. The underlined word “toddler” in Paragraph 6 probably means ________. A. a small child learning to walk B. a kindergarten child learning to draw C. a primary pupil learning to read D. a school teenager learning to write 3. We can learn from the passage that ________. A. most of us can really grow from success B. growing and improving are based on mistakes C. we learn to make mistakes by test and error D. we readabout something and know how to do it right away 4. The author wants to tell us ________. A. what you should do when meeting with difficulties B. where you can find your mistakes C. how you can avoid making mistakes D. why you should celebrate your mistakes My husband Mike had been working in Florida for five months.Our 9-year-old daughter Kallie missed him very much.So Kallie and I were flying to Florida to spend a week with him.The plane was full.Because we did not get our boarding passes (登机牌) until we arrived at the gate,Kallie and I could not get seats together.Kallie was nervous about the trip and had counted on me reading to her the whole way.The passengers next to me got to their seats,and I asked if they would change places with Kallie or me.They all said no.Meanwhile,a mother and her two children several rowsahead of us also met the same condition.The mother could hold her baby,but her 6-year-old son had to sit with strangers.And nobody offered to help her.At that time,I saw a group of students on our flight.The students’ leader stood up and said to the woman,“Ma’am.I think we can help you.”He spent five minutes rearranging (重排) his group so there was space for the family to sit together.A smil e came on the mother’s face.Suddenly,the man sitting next to the leader turned around to me and asked,“Would you and your daughter like our seats ?”We changed seats and being together made our trip so much better.Would that man have offered us his seat if the leader hadn’t done so for the mom and her children? I’m not sure.But I do know that kindness is contagious (传染的),and good deeds cause more good deeds! 1.Whatproblem did the writer meet after boarding the plane?A.She didn’t get her boarding pass on time.B.She and her daughter couldn’t sit together.C.There wasn’t an empty seat left for her.D.Kallie was too excited about the trip.2.What does the underlined phrase“counted on”in Paragraph 2 mean?A.远离B.责怪C.期望D.动员3.The correct order of the following events is.a.The students’ leader rearranged his group’s seats.b.A man offered his seat to the writer.c.The mom and her kids sat together.d.The writer and her daughter got seats next to each other.A.a—c—b—d B.a—b—c—d C.b—d—a—c D.c—a—b—d 4.We can infer that from the passage.A.the writer and her son went to Florida to spend one-weekholiday B.most of the passengers liked to change seats with the writer C.another mother with two children met the same problem as the writer D.the writer was sure that the man could help her after the leader helped another mother 5.What is the author’s main purpose in writing this story?A.To criticize the coldness of some passengers.B.To compare two different kinds of people.C.To tell us that we should put children first.D.To show that good deeds lead to more good deeds Francesca picked up her son from school one afternoon.Isaac proudly showed his mother a card made out of brightly colored construction paper.“It’s for Father’s Day.“Isaac explained.The card was cut into the shape of a man’s dress shirt with a drawing of a man’s dress tie.Inside the card,Isaac had written the words“Happy Father’s Day”.Francesca wasn’tfamiliar with Father’s Day as it wasn’t celebrated in her home country.So she asked her neighbor Genny about it.Genny told her that Father’s Day,like Mother’s Day,is a holiday in the United States.It is always celebrated on the second Sunday in June.People give fathers cards or presents,go out to eat at a restaurant,or do something special that day.“It’s a day to show gratitude to your father,”Genny explained.Francesca understood,but she also felt a little bad.While Isaac’s card was made nice,Isaac’s father,Tim,never wore a dress shirt or a tie.He wore a uniform to work.On his days off,he liked to dress casually and comfortably.The most dressed-up he got was by wearing a polo shirt.Francesca had an idea.She went shopping the day before Father’s Day to get her husband a surprise.On Father’s Day morn ing,she and Isaac gave Tim a box wrapped up innice paper.“Happy Father’s Day.”Francesca and Tim shouted.When Tim unwrapped the box,he laughed.In side the box was the Father’s Day card Isaac made in schoo1.Also inside the box were a dress shirt and a tie.They were the same color as the card Isaac made.Tim,Francesca,and Isaac went next door to Genny’s house for a barbecue (户外烧烤).Tim wore the dress shirt and tie 1.Which is the best description of Isaac’s Father’s Day card?A.When you open the card, a song about fathers plays.B.The card has a picture of Isaac and his dad fishing.C.The card is cut in the shape of a man’s dress shirt.D.The card is shaped like a golf club.2.Father’s Day is celebrated on.A.the first Sunday in June B.the first Saturday in JulyC.the second Sunday in June D.the second Sunday in July 3.Which of the following can not be done on Father’s Day?A.Give their fathers cards.B.Give their fathers presents.C.Go out to eat in restaurants.D.Only spend time with their fathers.4.Which word best describes Isaac’s father’s style?

Tobacco(烟草) is the biggest factor, causing 23% for cases in men and % in women, says the Cancer Research UK report. Next comes a lack of fresh fruit and vegetables in men?s diets, while for women it is being overweight. Lead author of the report, Professor Max Parkin, said: “Many people believe cancer is related to fate(命运) or ?in the genes(基因)?, and that it depends on luck whether they get it or not. Looking at all the evidence, it is clear that around 40% of all cancers are caused by things we mostly have the power to change.” For men, the best advice appears to be: stop smoking, eat more fruit and vegetables and cut down on how much alcohol you drink. For women, again, the best advice is to stop smoking, but also watch your weight. In total,14 lifestyle and environmental factors, such as where you live and the job you do, cause 134,000 cancers in the UK each year. Some risk factors are well founded, such as smoking?s link with lung(肺) cancer. But others are less well realized. For stomach cancer, a fifth of the risk comes from having too much salt in the diet, data suggests. Some cancers, like mouth and throat cancer, are caused almost mainly by lifestyle choices. But others, like gall bladder cancer(胆囊癌), are largely not related to lifestyle. Public Health Minister, Anne Milton, said: “By making small changes you can cut your risk of serious health problems—giving up smoking, watching you drink, getting more exercise and keeping an eye on your weight.” 1. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to ______.A. changeB. lifestyleC. cancerD. weight2. According to Professor Parkin, he thinks that ______. A. cancers are caused because of genes B. some cancers may be avoided mainly C. most cancers are caused for no reason D. men can keep an eye on their weight to avoid cancers3. According to this passage, stomach cancer can be brought on by ______.A. working overtime C. lack of exerciseB. taking in too much salt D. smoking too much 4. Which of the following can be learnt from the passage? A. Smoking is the only cause of lung cancer.B. Drinking a small amount of wine is good for health.C. Some cancers may not be caused by lifestyle choices.D. About 134,000 people die of cancer in the UK each year. On March 14, math and science lovers around the world celebrated a special day: Pi Day. Pi is equal to about , but the number goes on endlessly. It is sometimes written in Greek,π. With the help of computers, mathematicians have been able to calculate(计算) pi out to over a trillion (万亿) decimal (小数的) places, but there is still no end to the number. This makes pi puzzling, even for the most famous scientists and mathematicians. Pi Day is celebrated around the world on March 14, since how we write this date, 3/14, looks just like the number pi. For some people, the appeal(感染力) of Pi Day goes far beyond math and science. Pi shows up throughout popular culture. You can see it in movies, comics, music and more. “In modern movies, any ti me the filmmaker wants to produce a sense of mystery(神秘), often the symbol pi is used,” says David Blatner, Jewish American writer of The Joy of Pi. People also love trying to memorize the digits (数字) of pi and competing against others to see who can remember the most.Many teachers hold class contests to see how many numbers their students can memorize. The Guinness World Record for reciting the most digits of pi is held by LüChao of China, who successfully recited pi out to nearly 67,890 decimal places. Above all, Pi Day is about having fun with the number. People celebrate Pi Day by eating or throwing pie and with fun pi-related games and activities. This year, Princeton, New Jersey, held a birthday party for Albert Einstein whose birthday also falls on March 14. There was also a “Walk a Pi Event” where people walked miles together. Just like the number itself, the possibilities for Pi Day are truly endless. 1. The following about Pi Day is true EXCEPT. A. it?s on March 14 B. it?s a day just for scientists C. Pi?s Greek form is π C. not clear to the understanding D. of great help B. represent thesubject of math D. describe something mysterious B. Activities about pi in class.D. Albert Einstein?s birthday. B. Pi is equal to about A. attractive B. exciting A. represent a long number 2. What does the underlined word “puzzling” in Paragraph 2 mean? 3. In modern movies, the symbol pi is often used to _____. C. describe something boring A. Fun activities on Pi Day. C. Walk a Pi Event. When you make a mistake, big or small, cherish (珍视) it like it?s the most valuable thing in the world, because in some ways, it is. Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, get 4. What does the last paragraph talk about? mad at ourselves. And that?s only natural. Most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, and we should try to avoid mistakes. We?ve been blamed(责备) when we make mistakes—at home, school and work. Maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious (无意识的) reaction. Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world. They make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible. By trial and error—trying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes—we have thought about how to make electric light, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, to fly. Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, and make works of talent possible. Think about how we learn: We don?t just use up information about something and know it at once or know how to do it. You don?tjust read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, or playing the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from watching, then you build a model in your mind...then you test it out by trying it in the real world...then you make mistakes...then you make a mistake and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you have pretty much learned how to do something. That?s how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something new—because if you succeed at something, it?s probably something you already knew how to do. You haven?t really grown much from that success—at most it?s the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey is made up of mistakes, if it?s a good journey.So if you cherish learning, if you cherish growing and improving, then you should cherish mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world of great brightness possible. 1. According to the passage, what is the right attitude (态度) to mistakes? A. We should try to avoid making mistakes. B. We should treat mistakes as good chances to learn. C. We should connect a great invention with lots of mistakes. D. We should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction. 2. The underlined word “toddler” in Paragraph 6 probably means ________.A. a small child learning to walkB. a primary pupil learning to readC. a school teenager learning to writeD. a kindergarten child learning to draw 3. We can learn from the passage that ________. A. most of us can really grow from success B. we learn to make mistakes by trial and error C. growing andimproving are based on mistakes D. we read about something and know how to do it right away 4. What is the best title of this passage? A. Cherish Mistakes.B. Mistakes Make Things Possible.C. Try to Avoid Mistakes.D. Life is a Journey Full of Mistakes. [来源:Z§xx§][来源。

仁爱版英语中考阅读理解专项训练试题及答案(1)AIf you like to put on your earphones and listen to your favorite music, your parents must have told you that “Turn that down before you go deaf!” Well, they have a point. Loud noise from your earphone can hurt your hearing both temporarily and permanently. Hearing loss means a person can’t hear clearly any more. For some people, that even means not being able to hear at all.If the noise around you is so loud that you have to shout to make other people hear you, you may get your ears hurt. Temporary hearing loss can happen after you listen to some loud noise for 15 minutes. If you have temporary hearing loss, you won’t be able to hear as well as you did before. Luckily, these signs will usually go away and your hearing is likely to return to normal. But if someone listens to loud noise for too long every day, permanent hearing loss can happen. This means the person’s hearing won’t be as good as it was before. That’s why some factory workers need to wear ear protection. Listening to loud music a lot can cause ear damage, especially if you use earphones.However, you can help keep your hearing good, if you’re going to a concert and you know the music is going to be loud, consider wearing earplugs to protect your ears from the noise.

It stood around 8 feet tall.At Dinosaur State Park, there are many things to do. You can even take the tracks home with you! The Park allows visitors to do something called casting.

阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。

The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish(西班牙语)at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain(西班牙) to visit their relatives and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits(益处)of knowing more than one language.One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you’re more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other’s problems.The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.( ) 1. What is the purpose of giving the experience of the Vieira family?A. To discuss the needs for teaching a new language.B. To show the problems of speaking only one language.C. To introduce the passage’s main characteristics to the readers.( ) 2. According to the passage, what can you do if you speak more than one language?A. Find a better job.B. Make more friends.C. Communicate more independently.( )3. What does the underlined phrase “multi-language speakers” means ?A. People who know a new languageB. People who know their mother languageC. People who know more than one language( ) 4. Based on the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?A. Not knowing another language.B. Forgetting one’s mother language.C. Refusing to learn another language.( ) 5. What is the passage mainly about?A. The benefits of learning other languagesB. The reason why people come to AmericaC. The importance of learning English.参考答案1—5、BCCBA(选自2016中考模拟题中的阅读理解)。

The more people, the more pollution. Air pollution is the most serious. It's bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only kind of pollution. Water pollution kills fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution.

Besides, most of my classmates did not like to play with him because his hands and shirts were always dirty. I told him several times a day to wash his hands. I tried to let him know the importance of being clean. But he just could not hear. I really disliked him. But I didn't know how to change him.One day, our teacher Miss Hsieh walked to Ted. She said nothing. She took Ted to the washroom. Miss Hsieh washed his hands slowly and told Ted that he should keep himself clean. She did that every day for one week. Finally, Ted understood what Miss Hsieh wanted him to do.Miss Hsieh's love gave me a good example. When I am doing my job, I always teach my students by showing them the right ways to do things. I always remember to give them more time to learn and to grow up. I'd like to say thanks to Miss Hsieh because I learn a lot from her.()1.We always had to guess what Ted was saying because he spoke too fast.()2.Sometimes Ted's hands and shirts were dirty.()3.The writer and Miss Hsieh told Ted to keep himself clean, but Ted refused to do so.()4.At last, Ted could understand what Miss Hsieh wanted him to do.()5.Miss Hsieh is really a good teacher.题组2回答问题根据短文内容回答问题。

What do you do if you don't get into your first choice of university? That's the question that faces thousands of students in Britain every year.Many students turn to Clearing, an education agency that helps find university places for students at the last moment. If students don't have enough marks to get into their first choice of universities, Clearing tells them about places available at other universities, though they might have to study another subject.But this year has seen a record number of students who want to study in universities. This means that there's been a fiecer competition for university places than usual. Education officials say six students competed for one place. It’s said almost 190,000 students still don't have a place in a university.

中考复习(一)---阅读理解【阅读理解】(一)Anger is a kind of feeling. Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry.Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger.For example, you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.In fact, it's not good to hide your anger, and it's normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself. When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It's helpful to talk about your anger with an adult, such as parents, a teacher, etc.When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend; count from 1 to 100; give someone a hug ; go for a bike ride; think about good things, etc.Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse. Don't let your anger control you.1.

The head of the Community, Zhao Fuqin, said, “ The first Sunday, only eleven people came, but we picked up over seven big bags of rubbish from the sidewalk and street. The next weekkend, twenty people came, and filled eight rubbish bags. Now the neighborhood really looks great!”The Neighborhood Watch ProgramThe neighbors on Green Park began this program to look for problems in the neighborhood and to call the police if necessary. The neighbors all say the watch has already helped.Sun Yan, aged 60 , a retired teacher, said, “In the past, I felt afraid at night. Now I know my neighbors are watching for trouble.” According to the police, there are fewer problems in Green Park. “ Calls to 110 went down last month. Criminals knew that the people in Green Park were watching , so they stayed away,” said a policeman.The Neighborhood Fitness ProgramA Health Club was built last month, where the neighbors can do different kinds of sports like basketball, ping-pong, tennis, etc.. “Every morning you can see groups of neighbors running, dancing and playing Taijiquan. We have come to realize the importance of taking exercise,” said Chen Jinliang, a businessman of 45.The community has more plans. “We plan to start the Kids Care Program for children.

Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan.Things like these are called electronic waste, or e-waste. Dealing with them is not an easy job. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. What is worse, at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really g one in the earth.Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them.This town is named as “the e-waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poisons in e-waste find their way into the environment. An environmental group has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted.Luckily, the Chinese government wants to change the situation. This year, China passed a new environmental protection law. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. Hopefully, the problem with e-waste will be solved in the near future.( )1. The e-waste found in Hong Kong last month was from _____.A. FranceB. JapanC. GermanyD. Australia( )2.

Is it good for them? We interviewed some students. Here are some different opinions.Kids in China are now less independent. Usually they can’t live alone without their parents. But studying abroad is a good way to improve their self-care ability, because they can depend on one but themselves when they stay abroad. – He WeiI’ve always wanted to study in the UK. I think there is a completely different culture waiting for me to learn about. Although we may learn about it from textbooks and the Internet, I still think it is much better to look and feel by ourselves. – Wu TingtingSome studetns want to study abroad because they don’t like the senior high school entrance exam, but they need to study hard and keep a good habit. Although the exam brings students pressure, it helps. If not, some of them may relax too much and learn little. – Li Hua China has a long history, and I am a big fan of it. As a Chinese, I think we should learn about our history and culture first and then compare it with others. On the other hand, there are too many new things in foreigh countries. Lots of students may pay more attention to them and forget about their study. – Wang Li( ) 1 He Wei thinks kids will learn to be ________ when they study abroad.A independentB carefulC lonelyD relaxed( ) 2 Wang Li is interested in _______.A British cultureB English textbooksC senior high school entrance examD Chinese history( ) 3 ______ thinks exams can push studetns to study harder.A He WeiB Wu TingtingC Li HuaD Wang Li( ) 4 Wang Li disagrees to study abroad because students may ______.A forget Chinese historyB compare themselves with othersC pay less attention to studyD not like the exams( ) 5 Which of the following is TRUE?A Li Hua thinks students will learn little if there is too much pressure.B Wu Tingting thinks learning from experiencing is better than from textbooks.C Wang Li thinks studetns may pay more attention to study in foreign countries.D He Wei has great interest in Chinese culture and history.(五)To us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade(遮蔽) against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use : it became a symbol of honor and power(权力). In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the use of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it became a symbol of power.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors.( )1. Ancient people first used umbrellas as ____.A. a symbol of honorB. protection against the sunC. a symbol of powerD. protection against the rain( )2.

If we have good social skills we can become confident and happy. Of course a person with good social skills can live a relaxing life as well.Then what do social skills means? Cooperation is one of them that is to say working with others. We also call it teamwork. If you do your work in an active way when you work with others you do teamwork well. The following skills are important for you to work well with others.CommunicationIn order to communicate well with others you should be polite and some times you need gestures and eye contact.And having a sense of humor is also necessary.RespectingRespecting yourself and others is good for successful teamwork.

Well, the Chinese government does this too---it writes the Government Work Report.Every year in spring, the National People’s Congress (全国人民代表大会) meetings are held in Beijing, and big issues (议题) of the country are discussed. At one meeting on March 5th, Premier Li Keqiang brought out this year’s Government Work Report. This year is quite special because 2016 is the beginning of the 13th Five-Year Plan. Thus, this report lays out (制定) a big plan, which China will follow over the next five years.Goals for the economy are always one of the most eye-catching parts. For a long time, Chinahas seen fast economic development. Both the country and its people have been becoming richer and richer. But last year, China saw the slowest economic growth speed in the past 25 years. The report pointed out that people don’t have to worry because China is welcoming a “new economy”. Goals for the economy are always one of the most eye-catching parts.China used to rely(依靠)a lot on industries like making clothes and toys, which don’t need much science or technology. But now China is changing. It will focus more on developing high-tech companies and service industries like tourism, according to the report.The report also plans to help people have better lives. The government needs to make sure that city air is clean 80 percent of the year. China will also help more people get good medical care, and they want to increase the average person’s lifetime b y one year.Although facing different kinds of problems, the report believes in a bright future for China. “From the start, China has been developing while dealing with challenges.

Well, you might just want to try it. Here are some Americans talking about slow food.Jenny: I had the best lunch with my friend Susi in the slow food snack bar last Thursday. I had the great tomato and cheese salad-much better than a pizza and a Coke. A farmer came to our school to tell us about slow food, which I had never heard of before. And now I want to go onilne to find out more about it. I think it’s really a good idea. I hope they will open more slow food restaurants soon.Karen: I’m very excited because I have startd to run my own business – a new snack bar called Good Food. It is special because we only have slow food. What is slow food? Well, it is more than just healthy food. Slow food is also about growing food in a good way so that environment is not hurt.

A recent study by the Chinese University of Hong Kong has discovered another saying: An apple a day keeps old age away.The study involved fruit flies(g果蝇), as they share many genes(基因) with humans. Researchers gave one group of fruit flies normal food, and another group of fruit flies got the same food including apple.The results showed that flies that ate apple lived an average of 55 days longer than the flies that didn’t eat apple. The study also found that apple-eating flies were more able to walk, climb and move about as they became old, the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry reports.The researchers believe that the antioxidants (抗氧化剂)found in apples are good for health. In another experiment, researchers studied the diets of thousands of women. They found that those women who often ate apples were 20 percent less likely to have heart disease.Scientists have recently discovered the apple’s genetic code(基因代码). This allows scientists to make new kinds of fruit that are healthier. Researchers are already using this information to grow apples with added antioxidants. Antioxidants help to keep eyes and joints (关节)healthy and protect against heart attacks and cancer.Apples that help people lose weight may be in supermarkets in just four or five years. They are said to be “extra healthy” apples that can stop people from overeating.( )1 The study by The Chinese University of Hong Kong finds that _____.A apples make doctors lose their jobsB apples keep people healthierC apples make people live longerD apples keep people happier( )2 Fruit flies were used in the research because _____.A they love to eat applesB they look like human beingsC they are easy to catchD they have similar genes to humans( )3 By studying the diets of many women, researchers ______.A found they are healthier than menB helped them to lose weight successfullyC discovered the genetic code of the appleD proved apples were good for people’s health ( )4 The underlined word “diets” might mean _______ in Chinese.A 饮食B 锻炼C 治疗D 休息( )5 From the passage, we can infer that ______.A people who eat apples are protected from heart diseaseB women like to eat apples more often than menC apple’s genetic code is similar to other fruitsD scientists are studying a new type of apples.(十)Most Recgnized Buildings Aroung the WorldWhen you think of a city, the first thing that pops into your mind may be its architecture(建The leaning Tower of Pisa, Pisa, ItalyThis tower is famous because it leans. Some people say that it leans because it was built on unsuitable ground in the 14th century. Scientists used many ways to make the tower stable(稳定的). According to experts, the tower can now be safe for the next two to three hundred years.The Emipre State Building(帝国大厦), New York, the USWhen you see this pencil-shaped building, you’ll know you are in New York. The Empire State Building has 102 floors, which is about 443 meters tall. It stands out from many other skyscrapers(摩天大楼)in the city. It took only 410 days to build it, and it was complete in 1931. The building showed the ambition(抱负) of humans to build a tower that could reach for the sky.Eiffel Tower, Paris, FranceThe Eiffel Tower stands for French people’s great imagination. It was built for a world fair in 1889. At that time, many people thought the tower was a monster. But it had great use in wireless technology, and as time went on more and more people turned out to love it.The Sydney Opera House, Sydney, AustraliaCompleted in 1973, it is the symbol of Sydney and Australia. Its unique sail shape attracts visitors around the world.Every year, two millio music lovers come here to watch performances. It is now the soul of Sydney. Together with the New Year Day’s firework show every year, it gives the city an artistic and romantic atmosphere.( ) 1 If you see the Empire State Building during the trip, you know you are in ______.A ItalyB the USC FranceD Australia( ) 2 If you were born in 1430 , you might visit _______.A the Leaning Tower of PisaB the Empire State BuildingC Eiffel TowerD the Sydney Opera House( ) 3 Which of the following is NOT true about Eiffel Tower?A It ws not popular among French people at the beginning.B It has great use in wireless technology.C It was built in the late 19th century.D It is the tallest tower in the world.( ) 4 The Sydney Opera House has the following things to attract visitors EXCEPT_______.A its unique shapeB its musical performanceC its long historyD the New Year Day’s firework show( ) 5 You might read the passage _______.A in a travel magazineB in a textbookC in a novelD in a science report(十一)Take a look at teenagers around, dressed in baggy-pants (宽松裤), drinking soft drinks such as coke, reading Japanese cartoons. Whether you are in Beijing, Wuhan or Hong Kong, you will get the same impression. But should we copy others or should we maintain (保留) our differences?It sounds convenient that people around the world speak the same language, dress in the same style, eat the same food and play the same games. If the world was like this, you won’t feel strange in any corner of world. But just imagine living in such a strange world. How dull and colorless it would be!Different kinds of food that people can taste, the colorful and fashionable clothes that we dress in and different languages we speak are all part of the different cultures that our ancestors left us. These differences represent their creativity and talent. And we all enjoy different cultures in our daily lives. When you travel to other places, you want to see different things. When you talk to foreigners you expect to listen to interesting stories. These differences in culture are what make life colorful.But the whole world is shrinking into a small village as globalization (全球化) takes effect and many different cultures are disappearing. In most big cities around the world people wear the same clothes. Fast food stores are everywhere. Hollywood movies are kicking traditional performing arts out of our lives. The colors of our life are disappearing.There is joke that even the panda and zebra want to live a colorful life. So let’s take action to protect our colorful culture before it becomes as simple as black and white.It’s not difficult. Learning some folk songs, trying on a traditional clothing and even eating local food instead of going to KFC can help. And we’re sure you will enjoy it.( ) 1.The passage is written to _______.A.explain cultural differences B.convince readers to maintain cultural differencesC.predict the future of globalization D.show some cultural phenomena(现象) ( )2.The author thinks that cultural differences _______.A.make the world colorful B.make communication difficult C.only exist in food and clothing D.will never fade away( )3.The author starts the argument by ________.A.mentioning certain cultural phenomena B.mentioning his view at the very beginningC.mentioning the opposite view at the very beginning D.giving examples of cultural differences( )4.The underlined word “shrink” probably means “_______”.A.expand B.disappear C.become smaller D.grow in number ( )5.The author talks of all the following cultural phenomena except _______.A.food B.clothing C.language D.architecture。

中考题型集训(二) 阅读理解(一)选择型A [2015·青岛]When he was a teenager, Hunter Adams was very unhappy and he spent many years in a special hospital for people with mental(心理的)health problems.When he left the hospital, Adams decided to become a doctor, so he went to a medical school in Virginia, USA. But when he was there, he did things in a different way. For example, he didn't like the doctors' white coats, so he wore shirts with flowers on them when he visited his patients and he tried to make them laugh. The doctors at the medical school didn't like Adams because he was too different.But Adams believed that people in hospital need more than medicine. He saw unhappy and lonely people, and he tried to help them as patients, but as people too. He spent a lot of time with children in the hospital and often dressed up like a clown to make the children laugh.When he finished medical school and became a doctor, Adams opened his own hospital, called “The Gusundheit Institute”, together with some other doctors. They wanted it to be a place with a different way of working with sick people.Hunter Adams became famous during the 1980s, and in 1998,Universal Pictures made a film about his life.

Why do your teachers use songs to teach you English? It seems there is a scientific reason for this.Researchers are now studying the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They find that remembering words in a song is the best way to remember even the most difficult language.“Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are used in a catchy and meaningful way,” said Dr. Karen Ludke. The findings may help those who have difficulties learning foreign languages. On his blog, Dr. Ludke writes, “A listen­and­repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area.”Many language teachers know the value of using and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington, D. C. depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese. She says, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use English songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics. So it's easy for them to start because they know the music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for the kids.”“Sometimes, I think if I were taught English that way, maybe I would speak much better English than now,” Hua Zhuying adds.Our brain likes music, especially for remembering. So, if you're still struggling in learning a language, why not try singing it out?( )1. According to the passage, the best way to remember a foreign language is to ________.A.read and write moreB.listen to the teacher carefullyC.copy the words many timesD.remember words in a song( )2.The underlined word “catchy” probably means “________”.A.令人激动的B.悦耳易记的C.枯燥乏味的D.震耳欲聋的( )3.Dr. Ludke believes that foreign language learning can be supported by________.A.using the listen­and­repeat singing methodB.listening to all kinds of famous musicC.writing songs with the languageD.reading the lyrics again and again( )4.From the passage, we know that Hua Zhu­ying ________.A.is interested in writing English songsB.teaches children English by using musicC.teaches Chinese in an American schoolD.is a researcher in a language school( )5.The passage mainly tells us that________.A.many researchers realize the importance of language studyingB.your brain remembers a language better if you sing itC.many language teachers know the value of famous musicD.you will never learn a language well unless you can singC[2014·湖州]( )1.George says that the Internet helps him to ________.A.play computer games with friendsB.keep in touch with his family and friendsC.make phone calls easilyD.buy clothing from around the world( )2.Why does Wang Lin think electricity is the most useful?A.Because it isn't really an invention.B.Because people love Alessandro Volta very much.C.Because Benjamin Franklin learned how to use it.D.Because many inventions cannot work without it.( )3.For Wendy, the air conditioner is the most useful because ________.A.she has to work a lot B.she lives in a very hot placeC.she often gets sick D.she studies very hardA[2015·广安]Mary is an African elephant.

Why do you seem to learn faster in some classes while more slowly in others? One reason you may not know is that people have different learning types. Scientists say there are three different learning types: Visual(视觉型), Auditory(听觉型), and Kinesthetic(动觉型).Visual learners learn best by seeing. If you seem to easily remember information from pictures, graphs(图表), and videos, you are probably a visual learner. You're not good at copying down what the teacher says in class. Never mind. You can draw graphs or pictures instead, if you find that works better for you.Auditory learners learn best by hearing. If you seem to easily remember things by hearing them, then you are probably an auditory learner. You must listen carefully while the teacher is speaking because it's the easiest way for you to learn. Sometimes you may find that taking notes stops you from listening carefully. After class, you can write down what you remember or borrow your friend's notes to copy.Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing. If you seem to learn best by working with your hands, you are probably a kinesthetic learner. Taking notes by writing can make you pay close attention to information as you receive it. Of course, you can learn best by making full use of labs or other class activities.Hope you learn better by knowing what your personal learning type is.( )1.

Have you been doing Internet shopping rather than going to the stores?A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of the adults are so lazy that they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs.Just over 2,000 people were quizzed by independent researchers in the Britain's largest health center. The results were very surprising.About one in six people who were asked said if their control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up.More than one third of those asked said they would not run to catch a bus. Worryingly, of 654 respondents(离婚被告) with children, 64% said they were oftentoo tired to play with them.We know that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are very fat before they start school.Dr Sarah, Dauncey, medical director of the center, said, “People need to get fitter, not just for their own health, but for their families, friends and pets, too.”“If we don't start to take control of this problem, a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most basic tasks.”And Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, was shamed as the laziest city in the UK, with 75% asked thinking they do not get enough exercise, followed by Birmingham and Southampton, both with 67%.So there are some problems for the National Health Service, where fatness­related (相关的) illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on an increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year.( )1.

But touching things can help you to see them better.Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass ball is. When you learn all these about the ball, you really see it well.With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two different coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand too. You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.All children soon learn what“Don't touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up.

You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a hard floor. All feel different under your feet.Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show.There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin.

They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fidlds for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo(舒缓的节拍).“Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nervous system(神经系统) and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study, “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added.The volunteers said they felt better emotionally(情绪上) and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxationor sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart's violin pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an intelligence test.

Simple passwords are easy to be stolen.A password is like a key to your home. If someone steals it, he'll get chances to steal something else. We use passwords everywhere in our life. We are so used to passwords that we don't pay any attention to them until we lose or forget one.A study of 28,000 passwords recently stolen from a popular website showed that people often do the easy thing. It found that 16% took a first name as a password. Another 14% used the easiest keyboard combinations such as“12345678” or QWERTY. 5% of the stolen passwords were names of television shows or stars popular with young people. 3% of the passwords expressed feelings like “I don't care,”“Whatever,”“I love you” or their opposite, “I hate you.”Robert Graham, who did the study, advises peo­ple to choose a password that is longer than eight characters with one capital letter(大写字母) and one symbol.Of course, safe passwords don't mean those hard to remember. Forgetting your password is sometimes a big headache for you. Maybe, the perfect password is easy for you and hard for others.( )1. The underlined word “password” in Paragraph 1 means “________”.A.标志B.护照C.密码 D. 口诀( )2. About 40% passwords are easily stolen because the users are ________.A.busy B.lazy C.stupid D.careful。
