These are the necessary tasks bottle, the voluntary（自愿的）tasks bottle and the happiness bottle.Every day, we spend time filling the necessary tasks bottle with useful things, like making money, doing housework, buying food and paying bills. We then fill another bottle with voluntary tasks. These are things that we do for others, but we may not enjoy them. This bottle gets filled with tasks like taking children to activities, cooking family meals, and doing laundry. Those bottles are very important. If we don’t fill them each day, our family won’t run properly.However, we often forget to fill the third bottle ---- the happiness bottle that we fill with activities that make us happy. Is your happiness bottle sometimes empty at the end of the day? Between doing all the necessary and voluntary tasks, time flies by, and before we know it, it is time for bed. We all have days like that.This is why each day we have to make an effort to fill our happiness bottle. I fill mine by going to the dancing class. And I always leave classes more happily than when I enter. This week, I had the pleasure of taking part in a guitar practice in my neighborhood. We show our musical talent and practice music for charity. It was a time of fun, friendship and music-making. At the end of the evening, my happiness bottle was filled to top.Will your activities bring joy to your life? Or are the other two tasks eating up all your time? Try to find ways to achieve a balance between how you fill your three bottles. At the end of the day, hopefully we’ve done all we can to make sure that our happiness bottle is filled.任务型阅读66.way 67.full 68.paying 69.voluntary 70.taking71.family 72.happiness 73.go 74 .achieve 75.hopeful东台市第二联盟B. 阅读下面的短文，完成表格中所缺信息，每空一词。
（共10题，每题1分，计10分）Beyond its influence on health, not getting enough sleep can lead to car accidents or other mistakes. Here are what sleep researchers have found about how to sleep.How much sleep do we actually need?It is known that all of us naturally need no less than eight hours of sleep per night. When we sleep below six hours per 24. we're at an increased risk of health problems. Some of us think we can make up any of those hours lost during the week on the weekends. Sadly there is no storage system for sleep in the brain.Can we train ourselves to need less sleep?As a study in 1964, a 17-year-old boy named Randy Gardner stayed awake for 264 hours. How many people could do anything close to that without dying?When you are reading this, you might say you usually get six hours of sleep and feel just fine. Sleep experts often compare people without enough sleep to drunk drivers: They don’t get behind the wheel thinking they're probably going to kill someone.Can we drink coffee instead of sleeping?Coffee can keep us awake. Remember, too much coffee may throw off our sleep and energy cycles. So limit coffee and avoid caffeine for four to six hours before bedtime.Does a sense of purpose connect to sleep quality?A new research suggests a kind of strong connection between purpose in life and sleep. People who have a greater sense of purpose usually have better physical and mental health, which in turn explains their higher-quality sleep. Perhaps developing a sense of purpose in life could be as useful at improving sleep as the healthy habits above.66. cause 67. sleep 68. needed/ necessary 69. increase 70. impossible71.fine 72. problems 73. time 74. connected 75. better东台市第四联盟五、任务型阅读(共20分）A．阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息，每空一词。

After listening to his story, Third Brother told other brothers what had happened. They made a 15 to go to help their brother get the treasure.The next day, the five brothers worked together and with great 16 , they got the treasure from the dragon in the lake.

Terry and Kate are among them. Most Chinese idioms have four characters. For example, qingchuyulan (bluer than indigo), and houjibofa (success comes with time and effort). Terry and Kate are now reading stories behind the Chinese idioms they have learnt recently.21．Which of the following best describes the first story?A．B．C．D．22．What is the second story mainly about?A．Going travelling on horses together.B．Going through difficulties together.C．Trying to finish tasks on one’s own.D．Putting all hearts into making boats. 23．Which is a similar point of the two stories?A．They happened on sunny days.B．They happened in big mountains.C．The people got success in the end.D．The people got help from animals.How can we stop climate change? How can we stop air pollution? How can we live on a green planet? One way is to use clean energy. Clean energy does not harm the Earth. It never runs out. Energy from the Sun is clean. We just need to learn how to get and store more of it.Plants use energy from the Sun. They use it to turn water and air into sugar. The sugar can be used as food. Scientists know a lot about how plants make food. Some scientists want to get energy from the Sun like plants do. They want to make a machine that can use sunlight to make fuel (燃料) from water.Water is made up of two different parts. Breaking water into its parts is hard. Plants do it all the time, though. It is part of how they make food. With energy from the Sun, the new machine will break water into its parts. One of the parts will be used as fuel. Then the fuel is used to make electricity (电). The electricity can power cars, houses, and so on.This fuel is better for the Earth than gasoline (汽油). It does not pollute the air. Plants canhelp us learn how to make clean energy!24．How does the writer start this article?A．By telling stories.B．By asking questions.C．By comparing facts.D．By giving examples.25．What will the new machine do?A．Break water into its parts.B．Make some food from plants.C．Turn water and air into sugar.D．Produce sugar as new energy.26．In which part of a magazine can we read the article?A．Health.B．Society.C．Science.D．History.Taking Root.How many kinds of plants are there in the world? Lucy Braun wondered that as a child. She showed great interest in plants at a young age. She often had energetic walks with her family through the nearby woods. Some plants and wildflowers seemed to shout at her with their wild colours. Others hid behind rocks.Lucy looked at the shapes of leaves as she walked in the woods. She kept a record of what she saw. She also learnt to draw what she saw. Then she could compare all kinds of plants. Later, Lucy grew more and more interested in botany, the study of plants.Branching OutAt university, Lucy took classes in geology, or the study of rocks and minerals. Her work with geologists changed how she looked at the natural world. She continued her studies in botany as well. Lucy also took classes in ecology (生态学). Lucy believed that plant life in some are as was able to move to other places over time.In Full BloomIn 1917, Lucy began to teach botany at a university. She lived in a house near the woods. Lucy collected plants from all around the country. She took many photos of them, too. Colour photography was still new then. Because of that, people enjoyed her lessons and photos a lot.The ▲ of Labour (劳动)Later in her life, Lucy wrote many field guides. In 1950, she published her most important guide. It describes the plants in the forests across the country. Ecologists still use it to study changes in the forests over time.Today, Lucy has a few plants named after her. One of them is Lucy Braun’s snakeroot, which is now in danger. Lucy’s work in the protection of nature may help prevent its disappearance.Lucy Braun lived to be 81. In her years as a botanist, Lucy collected nearly 12,000 plants! 27．What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph 1?A．The plants appeared to be full of life.B．The plants could talk just like humans.C．The plants seemed to be angry with Lucy.D．The plants were looked after well by Lucy.28．What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A．The reason why Lucy liked plants.B．The way Lucy studied plants.C．The time when Lucy noticed plants.D．The special plants Lucy collected. 29．Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ” in the last part?A．Causes B．Records C．Flowers D．Fruits30．What can be the best title for the passage?A．The Protection of the Plants B．The Collection of the PlantsC．The Story of a Great Scientist D．The Lesson by a ScientistIt was half past seven on Monday morning: time to get ready for school. Jay Stone rolled out of bed. He did a couple of quick wake-up exercises and then he went over to his mirror (镜子) and looked at himself.“Not bad, Stone, not bad,” he said to himself and smiled. Maybe he wasn’t ready for Hollywood, but with his dark brown eyes and his thick brown hair, he had the looks that turned girls’ heads. He moved closer to the mirror and smiled, checking his teeth.“Perfect,” he thought. “Good enough for a toothpaste ad.”As his eyes moved down to his strong arms, he smiled again. The hours he spent in the gym and doing sit-ups have paid off.But suddenly, the smile froze. His eyes moved from the upper part of his body down to his legs. His legs were short. Not just short, but far too short for his body. He had the upper body of a six-footer, but because of his legs he was much less than six feet! Six inches less! Sitting, he was as tall as almost anyone. Standing, he had to look up at most of the boys and even many of the girls.Why didn’t his legs grow with the rest of his body? He was one of the shortest boys in his class. He was the shortest in his own family, he was even shorter than his “little” sister—by three inches! Where did his legs come from?He certainly didn’t get them from his parents. They were both quite tall. Looking through old family photos, he found the answer. It was his grandfather on his mother’s side. His short legs were a gift from Grandpa Tuttle.Thanks a lot, Grandpa!Of course, the kids at school all noticed Jay’s short legs and they had a nickname (外号) for him: Stubs! Almost no one called him by his real name; they all called him Stubs. Stubs Stone, Jay didn’t like his nickname, but he had to accept it. He had no choice.But Jay couldn’t see in the mirror what his legs could do. They were quick and strong. He was the youngest player on the Brewer High football team. He could run faster than anyone else in the team and, like a rabbit, he kept going and going. Even at basketball, where the other players were much taller than him, they were still afraid of him because of his speed.Jay shook his head. “Stubs, Stubs Stone, the kid with stubby legs. Yeah, that’s me,” he said to himself with a little smile. Suddenly, he heard his mother’s voice.“Jay! It’s breakfast time!”31．What did Jay do after he got up on the Monday morning?A．He did some housework.B．He took some family photos.C．He watched TV for some time.D．He did some wake-up exercises. 32．What can we learn about Jay in paragraphs 2—4?A．He was satisfied with his looks.B．He wanted to be a film actor.C．He once played a role in an ad.D．He found it useless to do sit-ups. 33．What does the underlined word “froze” probably mean in paragraph 5?A．Spread.B．Stopped.C．Continued.D．Returned. 34．Which of the following best describes Jay?A．Strict and serious.B．Clever and helpful.C．Funny and confident.D．Patient and hard-working.35．What does the writer mainly want to tell in the passage?A．Teenagers like to play tricks on each other.B．Teenagers should have dreams in their hearts.C．People’s legs usually grow with other body parts.D．People can turn their weak points into advantages.阅读下面短文，从所给选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺，结构完整，其中有一项是多余选项。

江苏省盐城地区上学期九年级英语12月月考试卷分类汇编：任务型阅读(含答案)
盐城地区2019-2020年上学期九年级英语第一次月考试卷分类汇编任务型阅读第一初级中学HANGZHOU-Chinese internet giant Alibaba opened a hotel on 18 December 2018, loaded with artificial intelligence (Al) and robo ts, automating(使自动化) a series of steps such as check-in, lights control and room service.The hotel, opened in Hangzhou, capital of East China's Zhejiang province, where Alibaba is headquartered, is known as the company’s first “future hotel”. It is named FlyZoo Hotel, which sounds close to “Facebook” and can be translated as “staying here is a must”. The hotel has opened for business after two years’ preparation.Customers can check into the hotel by simply scanning their faces. The facial recognition system set up in the hotel also enables customers to use their faces as key cards to open doors and get other hotel service. Users can also control the lights, televisions and curtains in the room through their voices. Hotel bookings and check-out can also be done with a few clicks on mobile devices through an app.Like the future restau rants and bookshops of Alibaba, most of the future hotel’s service staff are robots. The robot waiters can be found here and there in the hotel. They wait for orders to offer dishes, cocktails and coffee. They guide the guests by providing recorded voice messages and are with them during their stay.“The Al-based solution can help customers save time and relieve hotel employees from repetitive work,” said Wang Qun, CEO of FlyZoo Hotel. “We want to install a 'smart brain' for hotels.

When they are asked this question, students and parents usually answer that music is nice, but not very important. It is often considered only as fun, but it’s not chosen firstly for education. This opinion is shortsighted. In fact, music education is necessary and important for all.Music tells us who we are. Music shows people’s thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. Just as Mozart’s music represents a lifestyle, rock music also represent s a lifestyle.Music provides a kind of ability for people to know the world in a different way. Science explains how the sun rises and sets. Music studies the emotive(情感的) meanings. We need every possible way to discover and respond(回应) to our world because no one way can get it all.Music is a form of thought, as powerful as science. It is a way we human beings “talk” to each other. Through the language we express our feelings, our discoveries, our ideas and our hopes so that they can be shared with others. When we do not let our children receive good music education, we take away the meanings that music expresses. Science does not tell us what it means to be humans. Music does.So music education is much more necessary than people generally realize.Title: Music Education is of Great 66Outline Detailed informationOpinions ●Shortsighted opinion: Music is a way of fun, not the first 67 for education.●Truth: Music 68 is important for all.Reasons Telling who we are●Music not only shows the social environment it camefrom but also expresses people’s 70 and values.69 the world●Music makes people be 71 to know the world in adifferent way.●Music studies the emotive 72 .Communicatingwith each other●We use music to 73 our feelings, discoveries, ideasand hopes.●Music, 74 from science, tells us what it means tobe humans.Conclusion Music education is both important and 75 .66. importance 67. choice 68. education 69. knowin g 70. thinking 71. able 72. meanings 73. express 74. different 75. necessary东台市第二联盟Do you know when World No Tobacco Day is?

This article gives us some suggestions on how to give an effective speech.So, you have to give a speech-- and you’re terrified. You get nervou s, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, it’s over. I’m just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again. ”Cheer up! It doesn’t have t o be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points clearer. Never forget your audience. Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience respectfully. They will like your thoughtfulness.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to -person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet.
