2．阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出最佳选项。

What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.

When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic control. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality.

Three-dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic.

They build the object layer by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-

made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop, the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive.

So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.

（1）What is the passage mainly about?

A. Environmental protection.

B. The world of tomorrow.

C. Advantages of technology.

（2）What do we learn from the passage?

A. Some people think technology development may bring new problems

B. 3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap.

Fresh green grass, Hundreds of colorful wild flowers. Water running into little pools. Birds making their homes in boxes. The 9, 500-square-metre Augustenborg Botanical Garden may look

just like any other well-organized park but there's a difference. It lies on the roofs （屋顶） of industrial and office buildings in the city of Malmo in Sweden.

Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a modern city have endless black surfaces with no life or water. Perhaps that's why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more and more people.

Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in the summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What

is more, they play a part in making the cities hotter than the countryside around them, causing

the "urban heat-island effect". On a green roof, however, with its plants and water, temperatures change only a little, as they do in a park. This can greatly cut the costs of heating and cooling in

the building below.

Also, a green roof takes in rain water, and protects the city drainage （排水）system. ▲ And small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this, the city

may become part of nature, rather than something completely separate from it.

While the cost of building such a roof can still be higher, it can be cheaper in the long term as a result of energy savings. And wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden high above the city's noise and traffic, whether you're at school or in an office or just at home in a ten-

floor block?

（1）With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Garden, the writer wants to explain ________.

A. how wildlife is protected

B. what a green roof is like

C. how to organize a good park

D. what to do with a spare roof

（2）The underlined word "moderate "in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to "________".

A. raise

B. check

C. record

D. control

（3）Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?

A. A green roof is alive.

B. A green roof stops pollution.

C. A common roof is noisy.

D. A common roof increases the cost.

（4）The purpose of the passage is to ________.

A. discover the problems with green roofs

B. introduce the change of green roofs

C. show the amazing beauty of green roofs

D. describe the advantages of green roofs

【答案】（1）B

（2）D

（3）A

5．阅读理解

Sun bears（马来熊）are the smallest of the world's eight bears species（物种）. They have a black coat and a white or golden colour on their bodies. Their homes are in the tropical（热带雨林）of Southeast Asia. They live in trees and eat both plants and animals. They can grow to be 1.4 metres in height and 65 kilograms in weight. They usually live alone and are happy to spend most of their time by themselves.

Scientists studied sun bears in the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Center. They found that although sun bears live alone, they have developed a surprising social skill. They can copy （模仿）other sun bear's facial expression （面部表情）as a form of communication. They can even copy exact muscular （肌肉的） movements that other sun bears make— such as making a face.

The ability to copy facial expressions is found in humans, gorilla's （大猩猩）, some monkeys and some other animals. But until now, only humans and gorillas have the ability to exactly copy facial expressions. However, scientists found that sun bears can copy facial expression as well as humans and gorillas. This surprised them because sun bears are alone and they have no close relationship with human beings.

Although they live alone in the wild, the sun bears in the study often played gently with each other. Sometimes they played with faster actions as hitting and biting. Scientists are still not sure what messages the sun bears were sending to one another.

（1）According to the passage, where do sun bears usually live?

A. In caves.

B. In trees.

C. By the river.

D. On the ice.

（2）From the passage, we can learn something about sun bears EXCEPT that _______________.

A. they like to live alone in the wild and only eat animals

B. they can copy other sun bears' facial expressions for communications

C. they can copy exact muscular movements of other sun bears

D. they have no close relationship with human beings

（3）Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?

A. A warm home on the earth

B. A brave animal in the forest

C. A new friend of human beings

D. A surprising skill of sun bears

【答案】（1）B

（2）A

（3）D

【解析】【分析】文章大意：文章主要介绍了世界上八个熊类物种中最小的马来熊的栖息

环境，生活习性以及他们所拥有的能力。虽然马来熊在科学研究中经常表现得很文静，有

时候会快速的击打撕咬，但是科学家仍然不知道他们如何传提信息。

（1）细节理解题，根据 They live in trees ，可知马来熊生活在树上，故答案是B。

（2）细节理解题，根据 They live in trees and eat both plants and animals. 可知马来熊既吃动

物也吃植物，并不是只吃动物，故答案是A。

（3）标题判断题，根据文章的第二段可知，马来熊有着令人吃惊的社交技能，故答案是

D。

【点评】考查阅读理解，本文涉及到了细节理解题和标题判断题，细节理解题一般比较简

练句式，得出正确结论。

6．阅读理解

Athletics vs. Gardening

The students of Southside School were asked to give their opinions about whether the school should run an athletic program or start a vegetable garden.

An athletic program is hatch better than gardening. How are we ever going to win anything at the Inter-School Athletics without proper training? At the moment,

we only do athletics for one tam and the teachers train us. We need experts（专家）to teach

us things like throwing and high jump.

I know lots of kids say they're not interested in competitions, but that's because they've

never won anything. If they got better training and started winning things, they'd soon change their minds.

People always say kids don't get enough exercise. Just because you do gardening outdoors doesn't make it exercise, so I don't see how it matters.

Athletics is much better for fitness and lots of kids can have a go at the same time. I don't think there would be enough jobs for everyone in a garden.

In fact, I think a garden is a really bad idea. I don't know why we're even considering it.

Liz, Grade 8

I think a vegetable garden is a great idea. We already do hours of sport, including athletics. And not everyone likes sport.

Gardening is a great way to get exercise without worrying about whether you're any good at it, or whether you're going to win. And you really do gel exercise when you garden. There's digging, weeding and watering Even picking things can be hard work – pumpkins aren't light you know!

There are lots of kids around here who don't have gardens so they can't grow things even they want to. If you really want to do more sport, you can join a club.

And think about it: What helps you to be good at sport? You need to eat lots of fruit and vegetables. If we learn to cook all the things we grow, the garden will keep us all fit and healthy and then we'll be better at sport.

Sam, Grade 8

A. Kids should take exercise.

B. Kids should eat vegetables.

C. Kids should try to win more.

D. Kids should be outside more.

（2）What is one reason Liz gives for saying "a garden is a really bad idea"?

A. Some students don't like getting dirty.

B. Some students don't enjoy being outside.

C. Some students already know how to garden.

D. Some students may have no chance to garden.

（3）Why does Sam say, "And think about it.: what helps you to be good at sport?"

A. To change the subject.

B. To introduce his next reason.

C. To support Liz's idea.

D. To find an answer to the question.

【答案】（1）A

（2）D

（3）B

【解析】【分析】短文大意：这篇短文就学校应该经营体育项目还是开始蔬菜种植园进行讨论。

（1）细节理解题。根据 People always say kids don't get enough exercise. Just because you do gardening outdoors doesn't make it exercise, so I don't see how it matters. 和Gardening is a great way to get exercise without worrying about whether you're any good at it, or whether you're going to win. 可知这两人都认为孩子们应该锻炼。故选A。

（2）细节理解题。根据 I don't think there would be enough jobs for everyone in a garden. 可知不是每个学生都有机会去花园。故选D。

7．阅读理解

When you enter my home for the first time, you will always be impressed with a small and white envelope（信封）. No name, no address. It has hung on our Christmas tree for about 10 years.

It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas. He didn't hate the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial（商业的） way of it, spending too much on the usual Christmas gifts, such as rushing into a store to buy a tie for Uncle Harry.

Knowing he felt this way, I decided not to buy the usual gifts, such as shirts and sweaters. I reached for something special for Mike. The idea came in an unusual way.

Our son Kevin, 12, was wrestling（摔跤） at the school. Before Christmas there was a match against a team helped by a city church, mostly poor kids. As the match began, I was surprised to see the other team wrestling only wearing the old clothes because they couldn't afford the wrestling uniforms, while our boys in their blue and gold uniforms. Of course, we ended up with beating them.

Mike, seated beside me, shook his head sadly," I wish just one of them could have won. In fact, they could if they had worn the uniforms. They have talent for wrestling, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them."

Mike loved kids-all kids and he knew them, having trained kids football and baseball. At that time, I thought of the idea for the gift.

That afternoon, I went to a store and bought some wrestling uniforms and sent them to the

city church for the kids without leaving my name.

On Christmas Eve, I put the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Mike what I had done and telling him that this was his gift from me. His smile was the greatest thing about Christmas that year and the next years.

You see, we lost Mike now. But every Christmas Eve I would put an envelope on the tree, and in the morning, three more joined it. Each of our children had secretly put an envelope on the tree for their dad.

Mike's spirit, like the Christmas spirit, will always be with us.

（1）Mike hated Christmas because he .

A. disliked receiving the same gifts every year

B. didn't like people spending too much money on gifts

C. didn't understand the true meaning of Christmas

D. hated rushing into a store to buy a tie for Uncle Harry

（2）We can infer（推断） from the passage that the writer is a（n） .

A. brave and outgoing man

B. loving and patient man

C. strict and serious woman

D. understanding and kind woman

（3）The sentence underlined in Paragraph 5 means .

A. they didn't have talent because they lost the match

B. they wouldn't accept the result because of the old clothes

C. they might lose heart after they were badly beaten in this way

D. they tried to cheer themselves up even if they failed in the match

（4）It can be learnt from the passage that .

A. the writer sends gifts to children every Christmas

B. the children now prefer new toys to the envelope

C. the white envelope was a gift from the poor kids

D. Mike's spirit will have a strong influence on his children forever

【答案】（1）D

8．阅读下列短文，从每题所给的（A、B、C和D）四个选项中选出最佳选项。

In 1901, Karl Landsteiner, an Austrian scientist, discovered that there are four types of blood. These four blood types were named A, B, AB and O. People have one of these four types. Blood type O is the most common around the world. Blood type A is the second most common, and type AB is the least common. If people with type A blood are given type B blood, or people with type B are given type A blood, they will probably die.

In 1927, a Japanese doctor Furukawa Takeji, carried out research and came up with the idea that people with different blood types also had different personalities. He said that people with type A blood are usually calm and serious; people with type B blood are curious, cheerful and outgoing; and people with type O blood are generous and honest; while those with type AB blood are often caring, original and careful.

More recently, a doctor in the United States wrote a book that links blood types and what people cat. For example, his book suggests people with type O blood should cat more meat and less bread A diet for people with type A blood includes more vegetables His book, Eat Right for Your Type, has been a hit with people who want to lose weight. However, Dr. Peter D'Adamo believes that eating food that matches a person's blood type can do more than help them lose weight. He thinks it will make the person healthier in other ways, too.

9．根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

Even in early time, people could realize the importance of dreams and knew that dreams gave meaning to life. Every great achievement has been the result of years of dreaming. If a person has a dream and holds fat to it, he or she will find a way to bring it into reality（现实）.

Children do not have much experience or knowledge. However, they are natural dreamers. We should not laugh at them for being naive. Many great men were dreamers when they were children.

Teenagers and young people should also be encouraged to dream. The world is full of successful teenagers and young people. They dreamt big and their dreams changed their lives and even the world. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are the good examples. They have developed technology and brought great progress to human besides making money for themselves Older people should believe that it is never too late to dream and that human mind is never too old to make dreams tum into reality. Colonel Saunders realized his dreams at the age of 67 and set up the biggest fried chicken company （KFC） in the world. To dream is a wonderful ability which can lead to wonderful results. Olympic records were broken by players who were brave enough to dream. No one is too young or too old to dream and to make dreams come true.
