It 21 our teacher’s orders. ““Hopping is useful, but when you can fly, it is no longer 22 .” said the eagle.“Tell us more, “ said the grasshoppers.The eagle began telling them what the world 23 he grass fields was like. It was a world that included mountains, rivers and oceans(海洋).Then the eagle took one 24 grasshopper in his powerful talon()K) to the sky. The grasshopper could see the mountains, rivers and oceans that the eagle had 25 .After the eagle landed, he saw a spark (闪光) in the grasshopper’s eyes.

A. imagined B. created C. changed D. describedANo one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting(天气预报).For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints(关节) hurt is a sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.26. Which of the following can be used here to replace(取代) the underlined phrase “on theway”?A. awayB. goneC. disappearingD. coming27. When you see the stars twinkle clearly at night, the weather will be_________.A. warmB. rainyC. clear and fineD. cold28. Which of the following signs can tell the weather will probably be rainy?A. A rainbow appears in the morning.B. Some birds fly high.C. The stars twinkle clearly at night.D. Fogs appear in the morning just above a river.BDear Amy,I couldn’t read your two e-mails until today because my computer was broken. I’m sorry tohear about your problem, but I’m glad you’re feeling better and are recovering(康复). I’m surprised that in China someone’s liver(肝脏) matched yours! This is really a moving story–a stranger donated part of his liver to a girl he doesn’t even know!You’re right. We shouldn’t care too much about our weight. I’m happy you stopped taking those weight-loss pills. From your photo I can see you are now looking very well in the hospital. To keep slim is important, especially for an actress, but nothing is more important than health. Your doctor’s advice is indeed very good– exercise for at least half an hour every day and eat lots of fruit and vegetables.It’s not only in your country. It’s the same here with us Chin ese– many people are always going on diets or taking weight-loss pills, which are often dangerous. But in fact, some of them are not overweight(超重) at all. I hope these people can learn something from your story. Hope you will leave hospital as soon as possible.LoveXXX29. Who does “a girl” in the letter refer to?A. The writer of the letter.B. Amy.C.

Amy has probably just received an operation on liver.B. Amy is now probably in hospital recovering.C. A Chinese man donated part of his liver to Amy.D. Amy is now still going on diets or taking weight-loss pills.CWhen I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to be point out my shortcomings(缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with(忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark thepoints that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be helpful to you. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.”Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure(珍惜) all your life!32. What did the writer’s father do after he heard her complaints(抱怨)?A. He agreed with her “enemy”.B. he let her continue to put up with her “enemy”.C.

One【2016届上海市虹口区初三英语二模试题】D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)The art of acting in a theatre and writing plays for thetheatre is known as drama (戏剧). Most dramatic eventstake the form of actors acting out a story by a writer, calleda playwright or dramatist.Because this is usually done on a stage in a theatre, drama is also called theatre. The stories acted in the theatre are called plays. Drama is very much like literature(文学) , but is not written only to be read from books. In a way it is a kind of literature brought to life in the form of a play.Some drama is not written down, but is made up by the actors as they go along. This is called improvisation(即兴创作). Another form of drama is mime. In mime, the actors do not say anything, but use their movements and facial expressions to tell the story. In mime make-up and costume is important to show the kind of character that the actor is playing.The first recorded play was performed by the ancient Egyptians around 2700 BC. The beginning of drama as we know it, however, was in ancient Greece, where it used to be part of a religious ceremony(宗教仪式). The Greek plays were performed in semi-circular theatres. These outdoor theatres could often hold over 20,000 people. The church in the Middle Ages also used drama as part of its worship. As time went by, groups of actors were from town to town with a mobile stage to put these plays on.Soon, actors and playwrights found new subjects for their plays.Towards the end of the 15th century, the Italians developed the art ofcomedy.A hundred years later, in England, William Shakespeare(1564-1616) was writing many plays on historical subjects.Nowadays, plays have as many different subjects as novels do andthere are dramatists in many countries writing all kinds of plays.88.

He was taller by nearly 1.5 inches (3.81 cm) when he landed on Earthafter his 340-day space mission on the International Space Station (ISS).His change in height, which lasted about two days, raised the question: What are the effects of a long-term stay in space?As you probably know, there is no gravity in space. This not only causes difficulties in everyday actions like eating, walking and sleeping, but also problems for the human body.The first problem is the air. Without gravity, carbon dioxide cannot spread during breathing, but gathers around the body and causes headaches. More than that, human feelings of movement are affected, which could make people feel sick.The body’s fluids(液体) don’t work well in weightlessness, making blood flow upwardinstead of down to the lower legs, and astronauts’ faces become fatter than normal. Gaps between bones also become larger because humans cannot stand up straight. The spine(脊柱) can also get bigger in zero gravity.In addition, human bodies become weaker because of the lack of gravity and space to move around in. Some astronauts said that after they returned, their muscles hurt and their skin became very sensitive(敏感的). Kelly said during his first press conference, “It was almost like my body was on fire wherever I sat or lay or walked.”However, the research into the effects of long-term space flight on human bodies and minds never stops. There are many actions that astronauts can take in space. They can take vitamin D for bone growth, wear special belts on their legs to keep blood in their lower bodies and do strength coaches’ exercises. The fans in the ISS also help spread carbon dioxide around. “We will do further research.” NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said, “I believe it will be meaningful to human-being.”88. Something occured to Kelly’s body when he finished his space mission, didn’t it?__________________________________________________________________________.89. People may _____________, if carbon dioxide cannot spread during breathing.90. What will happen to astronauts’ faces in space?__________________________________________________________________________. 91. Why did Kelly feel burned when he was sleeping according to the text?__________________________________________________________________________. 92.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)Venus(金星)has long been one of the most misunderstoodplanets. Like the earth, Venus has its own atmosphere. However,the atmosphere is much thicker than that of the earth, which makesit difficult for modern scientists to study. There is much we still donot know about what this planet is like. However, using special machines, scientists have unlocked many of the long-hidden secrets in recent years.Venus is in many ways the earth’s sister planet. It is almost the same in size and chemistry as the earth. In other words, Venus is made up of almost the exact same types of materials as the earth, in about the same amounts.In the early days of Venus’ 4-billion-year-old life, it would have appeared very similar to the earth. The two would have been almost the same. However, over a period of a few million years ago, Venus took a very different course than the earth. Venus lies much closer to the sun than our planet. It has made Venus terribly hot.Since it is closer to the sun, Venus’ temperature should be a little warmer than that of the earth. As the planet warmed, water which can be used to form oceans, lakes and rivers, evaporated (蒸发). This increase in water vapor (水蒸气) began a cycle of global warming. Water vapor is a very effective greenhouse gas. It caused the temperature to rise and more water to evaporate. The temperature then climbed still further. Today it is likely t hat all of Venus’ water has evaporated into the atmosphere. This atmosphere effectively keep s the sun’s energy and makes the surface to burn much hotter than it naturally would.If you happen to find a way to survive the extreme heat on the surface of Venus, you will quickly notice something strange about the days. Venus rotates (旋转) very slowly, so that a day on Venus actually lasts longer than a year. Instead of the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, the sun would appear to rise in the west and set in the east when you are on Venus.88. Both Venus and the earth have their own atmosphere, don’t they? (1分)____________, ________________________________________________________.89. How can the scientists finally get to know more about Venus in recent years? (2分)_____________________________________________________________________.90. Why is Venus considered the earth’s sister planet?(2分)_____________________________________________________________________.91. What has caused Venus to become completely different from the earth? (2分)_____________________________________________________________________.92. Please list some other strange natural phenomena(现象) on Venus besides the heat. (2分)_____________________________________________________________________.93. In recent year, the earth faces the similar situation which makes Venus very hot. What do wecall this kind of situation and what caused the problem on the earth? (3分)_____________________________________________________________________. Keys: 88. Yes, they do.89. By using special machines. / They used special machines.90. Because it is almost the same in size and chemistry as the earth./Because it is almost the same in size and is made up of almost the exact same types of materials as the earth, in about the same amounts./Because they two are very much alike in many ways.91.

As a boy, I always thought people simply bought whatever theyneeded. Whether Grandfather knew this, I didn’t know. One day he said, “Come, I have something for you.”I followed him to a workroom. “You should have a toy boat. You can sail it at Storvassdal,”he said. “Great,” I thought, looking around for the boat. But there was none.Grandfather pointed to a block of wood. “The boat is in there,” he said. Then he handed me some tools and showed me how to use them properly. “It’ll be a fine boat, and you’ll make it with your own hands,” he said, “No one can give you what you do for yourself.” The words rang in my head as I worked. The boat was finished. It wasn’t much to look at, but I was proud. Then I sailed it at Storvassdal.We had to return to America. “You cannot bring that boat home with you,” my mother said.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)We often hear people say, “Life is not perfect.” But when problems really come to you, what do you do? Are you able to get through hard times?Liang Jiaxiang has a story to tell. The 13-year-old Beijing boy once took part in the election (竞选) for class monitor. But he failed, which made him feel frustrated (懊恼). “All the books and TV shows say that as long as you work hard toward your goal, you will make it,” said Liang. “But why didn’t I make it? Does it mean hard work is useless?” He spent some time thinking, but still felt upset for he didn’t get any answers. Then he decided to talk to his classmates to find out why he was not chosen. “Through the talks, I learned problems with myself that I never noticed before,” said Liang. “I cheered up again, since I saw what to improve. I will fight for the next vote.”Like Liang, Cao Yuhan, a 12-year-old Beijing girl, used to have difficulties, too. It all started when she was told to learn how to swim. Cao hated swimming. She didn’t practice, so one time she fell into the pool and nearly drowned (溺死). Feeling frightened, the girl said she suddenly felt challenged to learn the sport. “I told myself that I should beat swimming so that I would never drown again. Now I’m an excellent swimmer. If I had given up then, I would never have learned how much I could enjoy the sport.”A positive (正面的) attitude helps make bad things turn good, says Hou Ying, a psychological counselor (心理咨询师) at Beijing Bacui Bilingual School. “Students at my schoolcome to me with different problems,” she says. “Some are angry. Some are worried. Some blame (责备)their problems on others. I always advise them to face their problems, accept them and fix them. It may sound it is very hard to do, but once you choose to face them, it becomes easier.”88.

Many of the activities were already full, but I made a decision to join the Cooking Club because at least that way I would get a snack to eat.Tuesday, April 7It was the first time to be here. Like many of my ideas, joining the Cooking Club made sense at first but was turning out to be a disaster. Most people have been in the club for more than a year, so they already know what they‘re doing. And since they all know each other, they weren‘t exactly interested in a newcomer.Thursday, April 9What a terrible day! How could I know that if a recipe says to beat cookie batter (糊), you couldn‘t do it with your fists (拳头)? I thought the other kids would never stop laughing.

Now I know that chocolate mousse is a dessertand it isn‘t spelled m-o-o-s-e. ―Mousse‖ and ―Moose‖ (驼鹿) sound exactly the same. So I don‘t think my question about whether vegetarians(素食者) can eat chocolate mousse was really that silly.Monday, April 13One of my bright ideas worked out for a change! Everyone laughed when I handed out the chocolate ―moose‖ cookie that I made yesterday, but this time I was laughing, too. The peanut butter antlers(鹿角) were a huge hit.

Reading comprehension(阅读理解)(共50分)A.Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)(12分) Alfred Nobel was a Swedish chemist who lived from 1833 to 1896. Alfred and his brother made explosives (炸药), but in 1864 there was an accident in the laboratory and Alfred‘s brother was killed. Alfred then decided to spend his life trying to make explosives safer to use.One of the strongest explosives at that time was nitroglycerin (硝化甘油). This explosive, which looks like oily water, is very dangerous to use or even to carry. Nobel wanted to study nitroglycerin so he could finds a way to make it safer, but the Swedish government would not let him make any more explosives in his laboratory. It was too dangerous. Nobel had the idea of taking nitroglycerin out on a boat in the middle of a lake and working with it there.When Nobel wanted to take the nitroglycerin he was working with from one place to another, he put it into small boxes. Then he put the small boxes into a larger box made of clay. One day, when he opened the large clay box, he found that nitroglycerin was coming out of one of the small boxes. To his surprise, the large clay box was still dry. This gave him the idea of mixing clay with nitroglycerin. The clay would take the oil out of nitroglycerin and make it safer. He called this new explosive ―dynamite‖.Dynamite was very useful. Alfred Nobel made and sold so much of it that he became a very rich man. In his will he gave a lot of money to the Swedish Academy of Arts and Science (瑞典艺术和科学学院). He wanted the money to be used to give prizes to people who did excellent work.

Some very famous people have won the Nobel Peace Prize, including Nelson Mandela of South Africa. The United Nations Peacekeeping Forces won the prize in 1988.

Reading comprehension(阅读理解)(共50分)A.Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)(12分)Touch is one of the most important of our five senses. It is one of the first senses we develop. One of the most commonly accepted forms oftouch among people is also one of the first experiences we have in theworld---A hug!There is no better way to understand the importance of hugs than to lose them. For those who have experienced the loss of hugs, you will know how important they are to share.A recent research has shown that when people hug, the brain releases the chemical which increases our willingness to trust and reduces fear. It has also shown that hugs are great for your heart.In 1995, a pair of newly born twins was being cared for in hospital. While one of the twins seemed quite healthy, her sister was not. After trying different medical treatments, the nurse on duty, Gayle Kasparian, placed the twins in bed together. The twins immediately snuggled (依偎) up to each other. As one placed her arm around the other, the weak baby became better gradually. How great the power of a hug is!The need for hugs doesn‘t disappear as we grow older, though it seems we are less willing to give them. Research on people of all ages has proven that a hug is necessary for physical and emotional health.Without hugs we can become sad. A hug provides safety and gentleness.

Well, there is the technology to help you do this-to produce even a whole house!3D printers might be the size of a suitcase, or even a small room, depending on the object they are made to produce. You make a 3D design on your computer and send it to the printer. Inside the machine, the object you have designed is made as one object.So how is this being used?

The young man never felt like he had a real interest in these jobs. He wanted to do something unusual with his life. Finally, in 2010, Dothan left his own city of New York and began working as a travelling pianist. He first travelled to some other cities in USA, then farther to more cities abroad.Of course, his life is by no means easy. Moving a 5-pongd piano is really hard. Dothan once had his piano fall on his hand, which broke two of his fingers. His can was broken into in Mexico.。
