A large numbers of emojis (表情符号) are sent online every day.Emojis are pictures used in texts and web pages. Since emojis were inventedin the late 1990s, they have been used as a modern international languages.We like emojis for different reasons. A written message is always blackand white, but emojis show meanings beautifully. Sometimes emojis also change the way we write. The more emojis we use, the fewer words we use.There are many emojis with different meanings. They are easy to understand. For example, a smiling face means “I’m happy”. A cake with candles means “Happy birthday”. When we want to say “Goodbye”, we use a smiling face with a waving hand. When we are in a terrible situation but we have to laugh to cheer ourselves up, we can use a “cry laugh” emoji.Now emojis have great influence on us. Sometimes, emojis can be helpful to people from different countries in understanding each other. And when we are feeling exchange. Then the invention of emojis helps change the situation.

Though times have changed, falling asleep in class is still a common occurrence (常事) among teenagers.Why do students sometimes fall asleep in class? An obvious reasonis lack of sleep. However, there are also causes for getting too little sleep.Homework is a daily occurrence for most students, one that can take threeto four hours per night. A teenager who wants to be able to take part inany activity besides homework must stay up late to fit everything in. Clubactivities, sports, computer-game playinig, and TV viewing, for example,all contribute to(促成) teens having less time For both homework and sleep. Sometimes teens lacksleep because of after-school jobs that are taken on to earn extra money for college, family expenses,orsimply for clothes.Physical problems are another factor that can cause students to fall asleep in class. For example,insomnia, which may keep a student up at night, causing exhaustion(疲惫不堪的) during class hours.is a serious problem that may require medical attention. Medical evidence also supports the idea thateach person has a body clock that helps to decide his or her sleep pattern. Unluckily, these body clocks do not always work according to school timetables.The effects of falling asleep in class can be quite serious. First of all, sleeping in class is nota good way to endear(使受喜爱) yourself to teachers. In addition, it is highly possible that other students may make jokes about those who sleep in class. However, the most harmful effect of sleepingin class is missing out on important points. In the long run, sleepers may end up failing classes.Since teens are probably not going to deal with the problem, falling asleep in class will probably remain an all-too common occurrence. It will continue until more teens find a way to balance their personal and social lives with school and work, while still finding enough time to sleep.三、江苏省连云港市2019年中考英语试题任务型阅读（共5小题; 每小题1分，满分5分）请阅读下面短文，在短文后表格中的空白处填上适当的单词（注意：每空1个单词）。
What would you do if you felt anxious（焦虑的）？Would you feel better if someone else could share his or her experiences with you? In the United States, two teenage girls set up amental health camp called "Healing（治愈）Hearts" to help people deal with anxiety.The idea of creating the camp came from Dinah Martinez, 17, and her schoolmate Janet Martinez, 18.

She stopped talking to her friends, stopped going to school for three weeks and stayed at home.Janet Martinez was anxious in elementary school. Things got even worse in junior high. "Itwas a lot of pressure（压力）I put on myself. I would wake up in the morning and it was like my heart was racing," she said.The girls' camp idea got support from Girls Leading Our World (GLOW) in the US. The organization awarded them $ 5,000 to put on the camp for other teenage girls.The "Healing Hearts" camp was created to "help deal with anxiety, especially with girls inhigh school because that’s when they are the most vulnerable（脆弱的）, "Janet Martinez said.On the first day of the camp, 10 girls were there. Experts at the camp talked about anxiety. They helped girls who were experiencing anxiety. The girls learned how to calm themselves when they are anxious.

Istudy at Walsh Jesuit High School in Cleveland, Ohio, US. ILike reading, traveling and listening to music. I'm glad to sharemy experience with you.Have you ever wondered what PE classes are like in othercountries? In China, PE tests are required to graduate fromboth middle school and high school. To get good grades on thePE tests, Chinese students will need to practice running as well as doing sit-ups and pull-ups. However, this is not the way that PE classes work in US high schools.In my high school, we are required to take two terms of PE to graduate. We play real sports during PE classes, such as basketball and volleyball. There are also some other typical American sports that we often play, such as kickball and dodgeball(躲避球).I didn't know the rules of kickball and dodgeball when I first came to the US. The teacher allowed me to sit on the sidelines and watch how other students played it in order to let me find out the rules.We also learn some useful life skills in PE. Last year, I learned how to do CPR(心肺复苏), which is a life-saving skill. We were also taught how to provide first aid to someone who is choking(窒息).These skills are a large part of the final grade for the PE class in my high school. Self-defense(自卫)is taught in PE class as well. This includes some tae kwon do(跆拳道)and karate(空手道) skills, as well as Chinese kung fu. It is practical. I prefer PE classes in the US to the ones in China. I think they are more fun and useful. What do you think?26. The writer learned the rules of kickball and dodgeball through ·A. a teacher's instructionB. watching others playC. playing the sport herselfD. watching online videos27. Which of these things did the writer NOT learn about in PE classes at Welsh Jesuit High School?A. How to play sports.B. Life–saving skills.C. Self-defense skills.D. How to treat burns.28 .The story is written to .A. introduce the writer's favorite sportsB. explain what US PE classes are likeC. show why US students don't like PE classesD. suggest that China should change its PE classesDIt was nearly seven o'clock, when a man walked into a bar, ordered a drink and turned to watch the television.The seven o'clock news was on and it was showing a man standing on top of a tall building. He was looking down at the crowd of people below.On the ground, a police officer with a megaphone(扩音器)was trying to tell him not to jump."Let's talk about your problem," the police officer was saying. "Perhaps we can help you."The man turned to the bartender(酒吧侍者)and said, "I bet you a hundred dollars he doesn't jump.The bartender looked at him. "You're offering me a hundred dollars if he jumps? Is that right?""Yes. I don't think he'll jump."The bartender smiled. "OK. You've got a bet."The man turned back to the TV and watched it carefully. The bartender, however, did not seem to be very interested. He continued washing glasses and serving the other customers.Then, after about five minutes，the man on the building threw himself off the building and fell to the ground.The man in the bar turned to the bartender."He jumped," he said. "You win."He held out a hundred dollar bill to the bartender, but the bartender would not take it."I can't take your money," he said. "I knew I couldn't lose. That story was on the six o'clock news. I saw him jump.""Well, yes, so did I," the man said, "but I didn't think he'd do such a stupid thing twice."29. Where did the man see the news the second time?A. At the bartender's house.B.

The note told Greg his mother was _____.A. not at homeB. in the gardenC. washing the dogD. making afternoon tea22. What did Greg's mother ask him to do first?A. Brush the cat.B. Go outside.C. Have afternoon tea.D. Change his clothes.BWe wake up very early to go to school, maybe even earlier to meet with a teacher, complete our extracurricular(课程以外的) activities, come home to have a quick dinner, talk for eight minutes with our parents and do homework until we fall asleep. But then we remember we have to look at the American College Test(ACT) exercises one more time. Half asleep, we run downstairs to get the ACT books, and start studying. After this we finally get to turn off the lights and drift away to sleep. And then six hours later, we do it all over again.In my health class, my teacher told us that teenagers need at least eight to nine hours of sleep each night. The sad truth is, with so much to do every day, high school students cannot keep to this sleep schedule(安排).Let me ask you all a question: Doesn’t it seem more humane(人道的) to give a teenager perhaps two hours of homework each night? This would allow us to have the eight to nine hours of much needed sleep. Or does it seem better to pile students with five hours of work a night? It leaves us very little time to relax, therefore reducing the time that we can sleep.In my opinion, the present structure(结构) of the junior year of high school doesn’t work well. Junior year of high school is a time for growth. By this time many students have the ability to think creatively, and solve challenging problems. Homework is important for a student’s growth. But do we really need to spend countless hours a night doing it? Too much homework can only lead to too little sleep and too low an ability. I do think it is time to change the structure, so that we sleep at home and learn at school.23. In the first paragraph the writer gives _____.A. a picture of the present daily life of high school studentsB. an example of an ideal daily life of high school studentsC. a reason for high school students to live a busy daily school lifeD. a suggestion of what high school students should do to pass ACT24. From the last paragraph we know that the writer thinks _____.A. junior year of high school is the most important growth periodB. challenging problems are needed for a teenager’s g rowthC. the ability to think has nothing to do with homeworkD. the present structure leads to students often sleeping in class25. Why does the writer write this article?A. To prove the role of enough sleep in teenagers’ growth.B. To complain about the problems in the system of the ACT.C. To ask for a change for less homework and more sleep.D. To discuss the relationship between sleep and homework.CAfter a while attention to Tom ended, and the usual school murmur(嗡嗡读书声) rose upon the boring air once more. Now the boy began to steal secret glances(偷看) at the girl. She noticed it, made a face at him and gave him the back of her head for the space of a minute. When she slowly faced around again, an apple lay before her. She pushed it away. Tom gently put it back. She pushed it away again, but with less animosity(敌意). Tom patiently returned it to its place. Then she let it remain. Tom wrote on his paper, “Please take it. I got more.” The girl glanced at the words, but made no sign.Now the boy began to draw something on the paper, hiding his work with his left hand. For a time the girl refused to notice, but her human curiosity soon began to show itself by hardly noticeable(明显的) signs. The boy worked on, seemingly not aware. The girl made some non-committal(含糊的) efforts to see, but the boy did not display that he was aware of it. At last she couldn’t bear it and whispered:“Let me see it.”Tom partly uncovered the picture of a house with some smoke rising from the chimney(烟囱). Then the girl’s interest began to fasten itself upon the work and she forgot everything else. When it was finished, she gazed a moment, then whispered:“It’s nice! Draw a man.”The artist created a man in the front yard. She was satisfied, and whispered:“It’s a beautiful man---no w draw me in it.”Tom drew an hour-glass(沙漏) as the body, a full moon as her head and some arms added to it. The girl said:“It’s ever so nice. I wish I could draw. No one has ever taught me that.”“It’s easy,” whispered Tom, “I'll teach you.”“Oh, will you? When?”“At noon. Do you go home for dinner?”“I’ll stay if you will.”“Good, that’s a deal. What’s your name?”26. What probably happened in the classroom before this passage?A. The girl introduced herself to the boy.B. Something noticeable happened to the boy.C. They had a lesson on how to draw.D. The boy drew an apple for the girl.27. What most probably happened to the apple finally?A. Eaten by the boy because the girl didn’t accept it.B. Eaten by the boy because it was the last one he had got.C. Eaten by the girl because they finally became friends.D. Eaten by the girl because the boy was drawing all the time.28. What in this passage made Tom succeed in making friends with the girl?A. Using her curiosity.B. Showing off his drawing ability.C. Teaching her how to draw.D. Inviting her to dinner.DFrom Asia to America and everywhere in between, Swing---an energetic form of dance that includes six-step and eight-step rhythms(节奏)---has takenthe world by storm. Making a recent comeback, swing dance floors havepopped up all over the world. Many clubs make fans of Swing happy byholding nights when swing music is played, and sometimes even offeringclasses to attract customers.Though Swing is now popular worldwide, it first appeared alongside the jazz movements of the 1920s and 1930s in New York City. While listening tojazz, the young black people of that time developed the movements of the LindyHop---a style of dance that is best known for a break away or “swing out” mov eand sudden improvisation(即兴表演).It was reportedly given this name when a reporter was interviewing a person at the dance hall who was watching other couples dance. When asked what that dance was called, the watcher looked at a newspaper next to him that had an article about Lindbergh---the first person to fly alone across the Atlantic(大西洋)---which was titled, “Lindy Hops the Atlantic”. Then the watcher announced that the “Lindy Hop” was the name of the dance, and it has stuck since then.In 1926, the Savoy Ballroom was the first large business to offer a place for people to listen to swing music and dance. With its huge dance floor, the Savoy became a big success overnight, attracting some of the best dancers and musicians in the New York area.Within ten years, the Lindy Hops was sweeping through the United States and became a symbol of unity, as young people of all racial(种族的) backgrounds crowded into dance halls to swing the night away. Traditional dance teachers did not welcome it because they thought it was not even a real dance and were quite sure about its demise but Swing has proved them wrong; it continues to be one of the world’s most fun dances.29. The writing purpose of this passage is __________.A. to describe the special moves of a danceB. to discover the fun secrets of a danceC. to tell stories about an energetic danceD. to introduce a popular form of dance30. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to “demise”?A. Challenge.B. Change.C. Development.D. Death.31. What can we learn about Swing?A. It’s a lively dance with strict rules.B. It has a close connection to a pilot.C. It has a history of around 90 years.D. It attracts mostly young black people.32. What can we infer(推断) from the passage?A. The dance style will soon be accepted by traditional dance teachers.B. The name was changed from “Lindy Hop” to “Swing” in the 1940s.C. The movements of different Swing dancers always look the same.D. The dance might have become unpopular sometime in its history.三阅读理解A B ADC BCA DDCA昆山5月质检第三部分阅读理解（共12小题；每小题2分，满分24分）请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Jo was tall and thin and she was a tomboy.. Their home was always busy and full of noise and people. Next to them lived old Mr. Laurence and his grandson, Laurie. They lived in a very large and comfortable house. But it was a house without life.One day, Joe saw Laurie standing at an upstairs window in his house and looking down at their garden. Jo’s sisters were playing in the snow there. They were throwing snowballs and having a lot of fun. But Laurie’s face was very sad.“Poor boy!” Jo thought. “He’s all alone. He needs some friends.” She couldn’t stop thinking about him. She wanted to go and see him, but how could she go to the house without an invitation?Then one snowy afternoon, she saw Laurie’s grandpa go out. This gave her an idea. She took a broom from the kitchen.“What are you going to do, Jo?” asked her sister Meg.“To clear the garden path.” Answered Jo.When Laurie saw Jo from the window, a big smile changed his pale, sad face.Jo laughed and shouted, ”How are you? Are you ill?”Laurie opened the window and said,” I’m better now, thank you.

What's up with ice-cream headaches? Here are answers to these and other questions about our bodies.Why do I get a headache when I eat ice cream too quickly?Scientists aren't exactly sure what causes the brain freeze when we eat ice cream or other super cold foods too quickly, though some believe it's the result of changed blood .flow in the nervous system. Blood vessels in the head tighten to stop the loss of body heat and then relax to let blood flow rise; that sudden rush of blood is what causes the headache. You can improve an ice-cream headache by rapidly rubbing your tongue across the roof of your mouth to help warm up things.What causes my stomach to make a low continuous noise when I'm hungry?Actually, your stomach makes noise whether you're hungry or full; you just hear it more clearly when you're hungry. Think of your digestive tract（消化道）as a really long tube lined with smooth muscle tissue. These muscles move food, fluids and gas through your digestive tract. ____________________________. It can make you feel embarrassed尴尬的）but is nothing to worry about.Why do I blush when I'm embarrassed?When you're embarrassed, your brain releases a shot of adrenaline（肾上腺素）, whichmakes your heart race and blood vessels become larger in size. All this happens to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout the body in a fight-or-flight reaction（对抗反应）. There are a lot of tiny blood vessels in your face, which turn noticeably redder from this sudden rush of blood. As for the actual function of blushing, researchers are still trying to find that one out.Why are yawns contagious?Have you ever yawned in front of someone, only to have them yawn right back? It's a common thing, but researchers don't have a good explanation for it. They do, however, know this happens only with humans and chimpanzees(黑猩猩）. A bigger question puzzling scientists is why we yawn at all. It used to be thought that yawning showed that oxygen to the brain was not enough, but that's just a myth. A growing body of research now shows that yawning is nature's way of keeping our brains cool.42. What is the meaning of the underlined word tighten?A. 变松B. 变紧C.变短D. 变长43. Which of the following sentences can be filled in the blank?A. And that's what you're hearing when your stomach makes noise.B. And that's why you're so hungry when your stomach is emptyC.

Our Amazing Feelings四、江苏省淮安市2019年初中毕业暨升学考试CThe Garbage (垃圾) Project started at the University of Arizona in 1973. Since then, the students and teachers in it have studied the modern garbage in different cities.To study the garbage, the students had to travel to landfills (填埋场) , the places where cities bury (填埋) their garbage. While the students were studying the garbage they wore special clothes. Students were very careful when they opened bags of garbage.One important thing the students have learned from studying the garbage is that the garbage in landfills disappears very slowly. That was surprising to both the students and many scientists who had thought that about 70 % of the garbage in landfills would disappear quickly. Even in cities where it rains a lot, the students found newspapers from 1948, 40-year-old hot dogs, and vegetables from 1970. And the students also found many more empty bottles of cola than they expected.How to dispose of our garbage well depends on what kind of garbage it is: regular(普通的) garbage, dangerous materials, or recyclable materials, such as newspapers and glass bottles. Regular garbage goes to regular landfills. Dangerous materials are harmful to people's health andthe environment. They shouldn't go into regular landfills.Homes are full of dangerous waste. One kind of the dangerous waste in homes is batteries. When batteries are buried directly（直接地）in a landfill, they often break open. The poison inside them moves through rain water to the bottom of the landfill. Then it can pollute the natural water in the ground.Another dangerous waste from homes is motor oil. When people pour old motor oil on the ground or throw it in the garbage, it pollutes the environment.Our garbage problem is not new, but as the world's population continues to grow, it will become a bigger and bigger problem.41. The Garbage Project started at the University of Arizona in _______________.A. 1973B. 1970C. 1948D. 194042. To study the modern garbage, the students had to do many things except ____________.A.

Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. There are only two kinds of dangerous waste in homes.B. Scientists thought about 70 % of the garbage in landfills would disappear slowly.C. The students found empty bottles of cola were not as many as they expected.D. Batteries often break open when they are buried directly in a landfill.五、2019年苏州市初中毕业暨升学考试试卷CEvery day there is less and less space on Earth for rubbish. Yet every day we make more and more rubbish. What can we do? We can recycle some of our rubbish. Recycling means that the rubbish will be made into something that can be used again.Recycling helps Earth. And it saves space in rubbish dumps. Half of everything that we put into landfills could be recycled instead. In fact, most things made of paper, metal, glass and plastic can be recycled.Paper can be broken into small pieces and made into new paper. Steel and aluminum cans（金属雄）can be melted down（熔化）and made into new cans. The same is true of glass bottles. This can be done aver and over again. Recycling doesn't take as much energy as making these things the first time. So we can use less of Earth's fuel resources.Plastic can be melted down, too. Then it can be formed into park benches, playgrounds and so on. Some people call plastic the "wood" of the future. Things made of plastic will last about400 years-even if they stay outside in the weather. No wood can do that!27. The underlined word "landfills" in Paragraph 2 probably means _____________.A. bench factoriesB. places for rubbishC. green mountainsD. recycling centres28.

Like LeoTolstoy, the famous Russian writer, many people ask these difficultquestions. Tolstoy spent his whole life trying to answer these difficultquestions.As a young man, he thought people could achieve perfection if they tried hard enough. So he worked very hard to be the best in everything.He thought that he would find meaning and truth in success.In 1850s. Tolstoy wrote his first stories. He wrote about his life in the army. He also told stories about his childhood. These works were published and Tolstoy became a well-known writer.He earned the respect he always wanted. Many rich and smart men met and talked with Tolstoy. Some of them were writers like him. They talked a lot about faith ( 信仰) and the meaning of life. But soon Tolstoy recognized that these men were not perfect. Now he knew they could not answer his questions about faith.So in the 1860s, Tolstoy tried a different way to find the meaning of life. He opened a school for the children of his serfs-the people who worked on his land. These workers were very poor. He wanted to help them because he thought they were more honest than the rich people he knew.Tolstoy learned a lot from his workers. He understood how they worked hard to support theirfamilies. He began to believe that marriage and family would give his life meaning. So in 1862, Leo Tolstoy married a young woman named Sonya Behrs.The next 15 years were the best years of Tolstoy's life. It was during this time that he wrote his most famous books-War and Peace and Anna Karenina. Many experts say that War and Peace is one of the greatest books ever written. In these books, Tolstoy believed humans should live a simple life and take care of their families. Tolstoy thought this would satisfy him and bring him happiness.Leo Tolstoy is still a very respected writer today. His faith and writings have influenced many people all over the world.41. Which is the correct order of the following events?①Tolstoy served in the army. ②Tolstoy got married.③Tolstoy wrote War and Peace. ④Tolstoy opened a school.⑤Tolstoy became a well-known writer.A.①⑤③②④B.⑤①③②④C.①⑤④②③D.⑤④①③②42.

He asked me to go to the cemetery and lay some stones. For some reason, it had to be done that day. I agreed. I hadn't been there for a long time.When I got there, I found a woman in front of one of the graves I would lay a stone on.As Ibent to lay it, I heard her whisper“ Thank you”.

" But, where’s your father? He was always the one to leave the stone.”I told her that my father was ill but he asked me to do this. It seemed important to him.“Your father’s kindness means more to me than anything else. When my child died, I came often to see him. It is our custom to leave a stone. It tells the one who is here that he is thought of. But, then we moved away from here.. so many painful memories.. I was so afraid that he would be alone.

Painful Memories, UnforgottenDTrees in cities "live fast but die young" compared to forests in the countryside, warns a new study.Researchers found that trees in cities die younger than ones in the countryside because of the higher levels of CO2. City-living trees suffer(遭受) a loss of carbon storage(碳储量). That means trees produce less energy from the air.Now researchers say more must be done to deal with the situation. Ian Smith, a PhD student of Boston University in the United States, said, “Cities are in the important position in fighting against rising temperatures and increasing CO2.”. “We find that tree planting alone may not be enough to keep and increase city canopy cover(树冠覆盖率).

Five Tricks to Improve Your MemoryRemembering things, like names, dates, and other fine details is a skill that you can sharpen .Here are five memory tricks everyone can learn.Imagine what you want to take before you get itThere’s something about walking into another room or passing through a doorway that changes our short-term memory and makes us forget what we went there for. If you imagine your purpose before you leave the present room, you’ll increase your chances of remembering what you want.Learn the chunking technique(组块技术)We can only store a limited number of things in our short-term memory—about four to seven different items, according to most estimates. The chunking technique can help us get past this limitation: Group several items into a larger whole.Make good use of the power of musicWe forget names and numbers so easily, except our favorite songs or nursery rhymes from childhood. Music helps us memorize things well. If you want to learn a foreign language, try training with music videos with words of this language. Generally speaking, singing can help improve our brain.Create mnemonic pegs(助记符) to remember long listsEven without the music background, you can use rhyme and rhythm to remember things like shopping lists or lists or all the US capitals. You can build a connection between the items and the things that rhyme.For example,1 is a gun (imagine the first item being fired from a gun), 2 is a shoe, imagine the second item inside a shoe, and so on.Take care of your health and learn new skillsSadly, our memory falls as we get older. Taking care of our basic health, though, can go a long way towards optimizing(优化) our health. That means reducing the stress in your life, exercising and staying fit, and keeping your brain healthy too by learning new skills.Find a trick that works for you and keep using it. You can strengthen your memory.五、任务型阅读（共10小题，每小题1分，计10分） 56.improve/ strengthen 57.getting58.why59.helpful/good/ useful 60.power 61.general 62.connect 63. older64. healthily/ better / properly /well 65. stronger/ better / strong / good江都区二模五、任务型阅读(共 10 空；每空 l 分，计 l0 分) 阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。

(本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分)We all need physical exercise. Exercise uses up food we eat and keeps the body energetic. If you exercise several times a week, you will stay happy and healthy.Some Western countries, such as the United States, have problems with exercise. In the US, many people don't have enough exercise because it is hard for them. People have to work from morning to late afternoon, so they don't have time to take exercise. They work in office buildings sitting in chairs all day long in front of computers. It is impossible for them to get much exercise in this way.Some Westerners can get exercise walking from their homes to work. However, most of people cannot do this. It is too far from their homes to their offices. They have no choice but to drive to work. In fact, some have to drive one or two hours to their offices. This is not good in two ways. First, these people don't have a chance to exercise because they are sitting in their cars for two to four hours each day. Second, driving is challenging especially in rush hours and needs too much attention. It makes a person very tired. So, when these people arrive home at night, they don't want to take exercise after work.Today, many people in the West are overweight which causes health problems for them. Doctors say exercise can help people both lose weight and improve their health. So many people are trying to get more exercise.
