Masks that helped save lives during the coronavirus pandemic are proving to be dangerous for wildlife, with birds and ocean creatures trapped in a large number of waste facial masks littering animal habitats.Worm once, single-used surgical masks can take hundreds of years to decompose (降解).“Face masks aren’t going away any time so on --- but when we throw them away,these items can harm the environment and the animals who share our planet,” Ashley Fruno of animal rights group PETA told AFP.Macaques have been seen chewing the straps off old masks in the hills outside Malaysia’s capital Kuala Lumpur. And in an incident that captured headlines in Britain, a seagull was saved by RSPCA after its legs became tangled in the straps of a waste mask for up to a week.The biggest influence may be in the winter. More than 1. 5 billion masks made their way into the world’s oceans last year, accounting for around 6,200 extra tonnes of ocean plastic pollution, according to environmental group Oceans Asia.Already there are signs that masks are worsening threats to ocean life. Conservationists in Brazil found one inside the stomach of a penguin after its body washed up on a beach, while French companies Operation Mer Propre found a dead crab trapped in a mask in a saltwater lagoon near the Mediterranean in September.Masks and gloves are “particularly problematic” for ocean creatures, says George Leonard, chief scientist from US-based NGO Ocean Conservancy.“When those plastics break down in the environment, they form smaller and smaller particles (颗粒),” he told AFP. Those particles then go into t he food chain and influence the whole ecosystems, he added.Campaigners have encouraged people to bin them in a proper way and snip (剪断) the straps to reduce the risk of animals becoming trapped. Oceans Asia has also called on governments to increase fines for littering and encourage the use of washable masks.B)根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,并将答案填写在答题卡标号为66-75 的相应位置。

The Dyslexia WeekAlbert Einstein (1879-1955), Walt Disney (1901-1966), and Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) have something in common. They were all extremely clever, brilliant and creative-and they all had dyslexia. Today, around six million people in the UK have some degree of dyslexia. Yet many people don't understand the condition or even realize they have it.Dyslexia Awareness Week (DAW) aims to change that. Starting on 3 October, dyslexia charities across the country will be encouraging conversations about it, giving people advice and support.What is dyslexia?Dyslexia is not an illness or a disease. It is a condition that affects the way a person learns. It doesn't mean that person isn't intelligent, it just means that their brain works a little differently. Just like people have different skin, hair and eye colours, the way our brains see the world and handle information can be different too. This is called neurodiversity.How does dyslexia affect people?Dyslexia affects people differently. Each person has a unique experience. Some people may have problems with reading, writing and spelling. For example, a person with dyslexia might write the word "pests" as "pets" because their brain confuses the order of letters. They might find it difficult to match letters to sounds or to remember how to spell words.How might the condition affect daily life?Dyslexia isn't just about reading, spelling and writing. It can affect concentration (专注力), coordination (协调性) and memory, which can make everyday life tricky. Dyslexic people might find it hard to copy down lots of notes from a board or to organize written work. They may find it tough to follow lots of instructions or rules when playing a game. However, dyslexia can be discovered by special tests. This is the important first step for people getting the help and support they might need.What are the positives of having dyslexia?People diagnosed (诊断) with dyslexia might worry how others see them, but thinkingdifferently can be a superpower. Many people with dyslexia often have strong logical skills and great imaginative ideas. They can be good at spotting patterns and solving problems. They can be super creative too-there are many authors, actors and inventors from every corner of the world who thrive with the condition. Dyslexia is nothing to be afraid or ashamed of. It's part of you.The Dyslexia WeekIntroduction ● Many people are diagnosed as dyslexia, including some successful ones in56 .● Many of them are not clear about it or even not 57 of their own conditions.● The Dyslexia Week starting on 3 October will work to change it, helping and58 people with dyslexia.Explanations ● Dyslexia shouldn't be 59 for an illness or a disease.● It's a condition that makes people learn 60 as a result of the way their brains see the world and handle information..● It can be discovered by taking special 61 .62 ● Dyslexia makes people have trouble reading, writing and spelling.● I makes s people 63 concentrated, coordinated ad affects their memory.Positives People with Dyslexia may have super power like strong logical skills, great 64 and super creativity.Conclusion It's 65 to be afraid or ashamed of having dyslexia. Just accept it and enjoy the life.2022年江苏省南京市玄武区中考二模英语试题七、阅读填表阅读下面短文,根据所读内容,在文章后第1—10 小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

Poverty (贫困) is a big problem around the world. But China has done a good job of dealing with it. China has found its own way to fight poverty. Ordinary people and good partnerships play a big role. Here are three model examples of them.Zhang Guimei, 64Principal of the Huaping Senior High School for Girls in Lijiang, YunnanAs a teacher, Zhang was heartbroken when she saw her students quit school after finishing senior high school. It was possible for many of them to go to college. However, they couldn’t it so because their families couldn’t afford it.So in 2008, Zhang set up free school for poor girls. Since then, Zhang has been busy asking for donations to provide money for the school. She has succeeded in making parents send their daughters back to school. The school has sent more than 1, 800 students to universities and colleges.Mao Xianglin, 62Village head of Xiazhuang village, Wushan county in ChongqingIn 1997, 38-year-old Mao started to work as the Party secretary of his village. Around the village there was only one pathway out of the village for many years. It took villagers three days to walk to the nearest town. Mao led more than 100 villagers to build a road with their hands. They hung from ropes and used hammers and drills to create the road. Six of them died from falling rocks.It took them seven years to build an eight-kilometer road. But their work has improved people’s lives. It now takes just one hour to drive to the nearest town.Mao then encouraged the villagers to grow oranges. Last year, their orange yield (产量) wasnearly 40 tons. Young people have returned to the village to sell oranges online.By the end of 2019, 269 villagers had been lifted out of poverty. The personal income (收入) reached 12,670 yuan, while 316 yuan in the 1990s.Minning townYongning county, Ningxia Hui autonomous regionHave you seen the hit TV series Minning Town? It tells the story of people who move from mountains in Ningxia to build new homes on the plains( 平原) in the 1990s. They learn to grow mushrooms from experts from Fujian. In the end, they get rid of poverty.The show is based on a true story. It is a good example of China’s “pair-up” practice. In 1997, Fujian and Ningxia paired up as partners to fight poverty. The name Minning comes from the short nicknames for Fujian(Min) and Ningxia(Ning). Since the work started, Fujian has sent 183 officials and around 2,000 experts in science and technology, education, and medical care to Ningxia, according to the local government. In 2020, the personal yearly disposable(可支配的) income of its people came to about 15,000 yuan.B)根据短文内容和首字母提示,填写所缺单词Sometimes, we remember our childhood neighborhood just as well, or even better than, our childhood homes. For both children and adults, neighborhoods are a p 66 to play, learn, and make memories.In the majority of US suburbs ( 市郊), a 67 everyone on the block knows each other. Coming home together on the bus is usually just the b 68 of neighboring children spending time together. While playing soccer or running after each other around on bikes, kids can enjoy the sunlight and fresh air outside. When it’s hot, children can jump in a pool together. And when it’s c69 , they can have snowball fights with one another.Adults also take advantage of l 70 in a community by taking care of their neighbors. It’s convenient for neighbors to become friends because they live so close together. Neighbors will often babysit or dog-sit for each other.If someone holds a party, neighbors might lend some space for g 71 to park their cars in. And if a postman m 72 up the mail, neighbors are more than happy to return it to its rightful owner. Having kind and caring neighbors can make a world of difference in what a person thinks of their home. To some people, a home may not be j 73 the house they live in, but also the community they are a part of. Neighborhoods, just like homes, come in all different shapes and s 74 . Some neighborhoods may have over 100 people, while o 75 may only have a few people. But whatever the size, neighborhoods can be a powerful and memorable part of our lives, filled with neighbors we’ll always remember.答案:56. examples57. built/ran/started58. managed59. helped60. death61.

2020-2021中考英语英语阅读理解专题练习(含答案)一、英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Now too much CO makes the Earth warmer and warmer, and brings bad effect to people. To save our Earth, a new lifestyle called low-carbon life becomes popular. Low carbon means low energy and no waste. It is necessary for everybody to learn to live a low-carbon life.To live a low-carbon life, we'd better save as much energy as we can. For example, turn off the lights and TV when you don't use them, use cold water to wash clothes or dishes: take a short shower and try to take a cold one when the weather gets warm: don't do the cooking with electricity.To live a low-carbon life, we should eat less meat. Being a vegetarian can help reduce (v)one and a half ton of carbon dioxide a year, but keeping animals for food produces even more carbon dioxide than all the cars do in the world.To live a low-carbon life, we should plant more trees. Trees are very important for us. They can not only produce oxygen for us to breathe and keep the air clean. But also take in the harmful gases from the air. To protect trees we should stop people from cuing down trees and plant as many trees as we can.If we can keep them a habit in our daily life, the earth will become a safer planet for us to live on.(1)Why does low carbon life become popular?A.Because it can protect animals.B.Because it can save the earth.C.Because It can protect trees.D.Because it can clean water.(2)How many kinds of way of living a low-carbon life are talked about in the passageA.ThreeB.FourC.FiveD.Si x(3)What can we do to make carbon dioxide become less?A.We can use cold water in our life.B.We can try to use less water.C.We can eat too much meat.D.We can take a bath.(4)What does the underlined word "them" refer to?A.The ways to protect treesB.The ways to keep animals for foodC.The ways to live a comfortable lifeD.The ways to live a low-carbon life(5)Where can we read this passage?A.In a fashion magazineB.In a newspaperC.In a travel guideD.In a history book 【答案】(1)B(2)A(3)B(4)D(5)B【解析】【分析】文章大意:本文主要讲述了太多的二氧化碳使地球变暖,为了拯救我们的地球,应提倡低碳生活,本文主要介绍了几种低碳生活方式,如节约能源、少吃肉、多种树等。

AThe master of wuxia is taking on the spy genre. Zhang Yimou, whose wuxia masterworks House of Flying Daggers and Hero helped catapult the Chinese martial arts film to the global stage, is back with his first film since 2018’s Shadow, and his first-ever espionage movie. Cliff Walkers is a snowy spy thriller set in the puppet state of Manchukuo in the 1930s and follows four Communist party special agents on a secret mission. Watch the Cliff Walkers trailer below.26. The following films are directed by Zhang Yimou except ____________.A. ShadowB. Cliff WalkersC. House of Flying DaggersD. The Bravest27. Which is TRUE about Cliff Walkers according to the website?A. It will be shown on screen only in China.B. It will be shown on Tuesday, April 13th, 2021.C. It is Zhang Yimou’s first-ever espionage movie.D. It is based on the story which took place in the U. S. .BThe branches swingThe leaves swayThe roots stand their groundThrough night and dayThe wisdom beneathThe great oakIs one so powerfulIt’s never been spokeThe light the oak gives Brings joy to us allWe play every day Like it will never fallBut soon comes along The heavy blade Goodbye Great OakHow I’ll miss your shade28. What do you know about the “oak” after reading the poem?A. A kind of light.B. A kind of tree.C. A kind of animal.D. A kind of insect.29. After reading the poem, we can infer that _________________.A. the poet likes the oak best.B. the poet only likes the oak’s shadow.C. the poet has a wonderful time with the oak.D. the poet is excited to say goodbye to the oak.CChinese scientist Yuan Longping, famous for developing first hybrid rice strain that pulled countless people out of hunger, passed away at 91 at about 1p. m. , May 22, 2021.On China’s Twitter-like Sina Weibo, the news has been viewed 950 million times so far. “Three times a day, when we enjoy the fragrance of rice, you will be dearly remembered. ” said a comment (评论)that has been liked more than 600,000 times.Yuan once said he had two dreams --- to “enjoy the cool under the rice crops taller than men”and that hybrid rice could be grown all over the world to help solve the global food scarcity.Having spent over five decades in hybrid rice research, the academician with the Chinese Academy of Engineering has helped China work a great wonder --- feeding nearly one-fifth of the world's population with less than 9 percent of the world's total land.Since the 1980s, Yuan’s team has offered training courses in dozens of countries in Africa, the American and Asia --- providing a robust food source in areas with a high risk of famine. Globally, more than 820 million people were hungry in 2018, according to a UN report. And if hybrid rice is planted in half of the world’s 147 million hectares of paddy fields, the additional yield alone can feed another 500 million people, said Y uan.Now the focus of Yu an’s hybrid rice project has changed from increasing output to green and sustainable development. In September 2017, a strain of low-cadmium indica rice (低镉籼稻) developed by Yuan’s team and the Hunan provincial academy of agricultural sciences was able to reduce the average amount of cadmium in rice by more than 90 percent in areas suffering from heavy metal pollution.30. In paragraph 2, the writer gave the example of a comment to show that ____________.A. China’s twitter-like Sina Weibo has got a lot of clicks.B. Chinese people are used to having rice for three meals.C. many people enjoy making comments on the news they view.D. people will always remember the scientist for his great help.31. The underlined word in paragraph 3 may be similar to ______________.A. safetyB. shortageC. pollutionD. development32. Which of the following is suitable for the title of the news report?A. Make two dreams come true.B. Help China work a great wonder.C. Father of hybrid rice passes away.D. Yuan solved the problem of hunger.DEvery week, two converted blue buses packed with children’s books carefully drive along the streets of Kabul, avoiding areas where deadly explosions ( 爆炸) are common. These travelling libraries stop off at schools in different parts of the city, delivering a wealth of reading materialdirectly to youngsters who have limited access to books.“A lot of schools in our city don’t have access to something as basic as a library,” says Freshta Karim, a 27-year-old Oxford University graduate who was inspired to start Charmaghz, a non-profit (非盈利的) organization, in her home city having grown up without many books herself. “We were trying to understand what we could do to promote critical (批判的) thinking in our country. ”While for commuters, a bus or train journey presents a rare opportunity to get stuck into a book. In some cities public transport is being used as means of getting books to communities that need them most. Vehicles are being reimagined and upcycled (升级改造) not only to spread the joy of reading, but also to educate and improve lives.Afghanistan, for example, has one of the world’s lowest literacy (读写能力) rates, with only three in 10 adults able to read, according to UNESCO. The majority of public schools in Kabul do not ha ve libraries and the city’s libraries do not offer many children’s books.For Karim, buses were a cost-effective, efficient way to get books to children.

WorriedE(an excerpt from The Story of Mу Life)I had now the key to all languages, and I was eager to learn to use it. Children who hear acquire language without any particular effort, while the little deaf child like me must trap them by a slow and often painful process. But whatever the process, the result is wonderful.At first, when my teacher told me about a new thing, I asked very few questions. My ideas were not clear, and my vocabulary was inadequate. But as my knowledge of things grew, I learned more and more words. Sometimes a new word revived an image that some earlier experience had engraved (雕刻) on my brain.I remember the morning that I first asked the meaning of the word, “love. ” Thi s was before I knew many words. I had found a few early violets in the garden and brought them to my teacher, Miss Sullivan. She put her arm gently round me and spelled into my hand, “I love Helen. ”“What is love?” I asked.She drew me closer to her and said, “It is here,” pointing to my heart, whose beats I was conscious of for the first time. Her words puzzled me very much because I did not then understand anything unless I touched it.I smelt the violets in her hand and asked, half in words, half in signs, a question which meant, “Is love the sweetness of flowers?”“No,” said my teacher.Again I thought. The warm sun was shining on us.“Is this not love?” I asked, pointing in the direction from which the heat came.It seemed to me that there could be nothing more beautiful than the sun, whose warmth makes all things grow. But Miss Sullivan shook her head, and I was greatly puzzled. I thought itstrange that my teacher could not show me love.A day or two afterward I was stringing beads (串珠子) of different sizes in symmetrical groups. I had made many mistakes, and Miss Sullivan had pointed them out again and again with gentle patience. Finally, I noticed a very obvious mistake in the sequence and for an instant I concentrated my attention on the lesson and tied to think how I should have arranged the beads. Miss Sullivan touched my forehead and spelled with decided emphasis, “Think” In a flash I knew that the word was the name of the process that was going on in my head. This was my first conscious understanding of an abstract (抽象的) idea.For a long time I was still trying to find a meaning for “love” in the light of this new idea. The sun had been under a cloud all day, and there had been brief showers, but suddenly the sun broke forth in all its southern splendor (光辉).Again I asked my teacher, “Is this not love?”“Love is something like the clouds that were in the sky before the sun came out,” she replied. The she explained in simpler words. You cannot touch the clouds, you know, but you feel the rain and know how glad the flowers and the thirsty earth are to have it after a hot day. “You cannot touch love either, but you feel the sweetness that it pours into everything. Without love you would not be happy or want to play. ” The beautiful truth burst upon my mind --- I felt that there were invisible lines stretched between my spirit and the spirits of others.37.
