We first have to understand what leaves are and what they do.Leaves are the world's food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots(根)and take CO2 from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and CO2 into glucose (葡萄糖), a kind of sugar. Plants use it as food for energy and growing.A chemical called “chlorophyll” in the leaves gives plants their green color. As summer ends and autumncomes, the days get shorter and shorter, and trees “know” it's time to get ready for winter.During winter, there is not enough sunlight and water. Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. As the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, we begin to see yellow and orange leaves.The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in autumn. In some trees, like maples(枫树), sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn the glucose in the leaves into the red color. And we can enjoy the beautiful red leaves during autumn.1. What do plants use to turn water and CO2 into glucose?A. Air.B. Sugar.C. Sunlight.D. Wind.2. The underlined word “chlorophyll” probably means“________”.A. 叶绿素B. 脂肪C. 蛋白质D. 淀粉3.

During winter trees live on the food they store in summer.C. During winter we seldom see yellow colors in the leaves.D. Trees begin to stop making food in summer.Passage 12(2020原创)为什么会打哈欠?You just need to yawn(打哈欠). But why does it happen?The scientists do not know what a yawn is for. What we do know is that yawning happens to just about every kind of animals. It happens when an animal is tired. Yawning can also take place during the time of disagreement and stress. And that wide-open mouth can be contagious(感染的), especially in social animals such as humans and wolves. Watching someone yawn—even reading about yawns—can lead you to yawn yourself. Why? The research on humans tells us that people who are more empathetic(有同理心的) may be more likely to get contagious yawning.Is yawning contagious for dogs, too? In 2011, UK biologists tested for contagious yawning between people and dogs. Although 5 of the 19 dogs they studied did yawn in reply to an unfamiliar person's yawn, the researchers couldn't prove the yawns were contagious.In 2013, scientists at the University of Tokyo once again tested contagious yawning in dogs while controlling for stress. This time the researchers found that dogs were more likely to yawn in reply to a familiar person. They concluded that d ogs can “catch” a yawn from humans and that yawning is a social rather than a stressbasedbehavior.This finding suggests some dogs find human yawning stressful and others do not. More research is needed to find out whether yawning is contagious between humans and dogs or not.So we don't know the real reason of yawning. Try an experiment at home: Yawn and see if your pet yawns back.素材选自可可英语网1.

Scientists are not sure whether yawning are contagious or not so far.C. Yawning is a stress-based behavior according to the research in Tokyo.D. If you yawn at home, your pet must yawn back.5.

I didn't want to eat my vegetables. I didn't want to go to bed on time. I didn't want to work in the garden. I would much rather read books than help my mom and grandma with the boring housework. Being the youngest of three sons, I probably said “no” a lot more than I s hould have.As I grew up, I began to say “yes!” a lot more. I can remember making the bed and sweeping the floor. I felt really happy to help my parents. I can remember studying hard to get good grades in school and the pride in my parents' eyes when I got into college.

2020年中考英语阅读理解专题复习(含答案)

2020 年中考英语阅读理解专题复习(名师详细剖析解题技巧+实战训练,建议下载保存)(绝对精品文档,价值很高,值得下载打印)一、解题技巧英语阅读理解是综合语言运用能力的一个重要方面,阅读理解题是占篇幅最长的、最耗时间的、生词最多的、单题分值最高的题型,当然,阅读理解也成为了学生们头疼的题型,下面就是初中英语阅读理解难点分析及高分秘诀,希望能助力同学们取得更好的成绩!初中英语阅读理解难点分析1. 单词不认识很多同学都有这种感觉,平时课本上的单词自己都掌握了,为什么遇到阅读还是有很多看不懂呢?这类问题被归结为单词量不够。
要解决这个问题,就是要多背单词,除此之外还要摸索规律。
第一、人名、地名没必要较真。
英语中有大量的词总是大写第一个字母的,而他们也大多属于专有名词,表示人名,地名,事件。
如Adela 、Manchester 、NATO 。
遇到这类词完全可以视若罔闻。
2. 前缀、后缀有规律英语中有些词通过前面或者后面加一些字母,就会变成另一个词。
如,regular-- irregular ,kind--kindness ,前者通过加-ir 变成起否定形式,后者通过在后面加-ness,变成了名词。
归纳起来,一般说前缀变词义(如肯否定),后缀变词性。
只要记住这个原则,平时在学习时有意识地去检验,积累各种加前后缀的形式,就不至于稍加变化就不认识了。
3. 有的词是需要摸索的在阅读题中,有的词是在文章中有提示的,因为英语写作有个潜在的规则,词语若非不得已,不要重复。
秉承这个原则,我们可以在文章的结构平行处找线索。
或是反义词,或是近义词,根据文章的具体情况,同学们不难做出一个比较有针对性的选择。
4. 考纲单词必须熟记。
大纲要求的单词、平时做题总是遇到的单词,生活中会经常遇到的单词,这些词是同学们发挥才智,施展所有做题技巧的基础。
没有特别好的方法,就是有恒心一直背:把单词表上的词分类,单独把不会的列出来,分批背,平时总是遇到又不认识的,用一本笔记本把他们都记下来,天天反复天天背。
