2024年中考英语新热点时文阅读-科普知识01（2022秋·江苏宿迁·九年级统考期中）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 mode m city have endless black surfaces(表面) with no life or water. Perhaps that’s why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more people.Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in 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 heatingand cooling in the building below.Also, a green roof takes in rain water, and protects the city drainage system(排水系统). ________ 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 as 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．what a green roof is like B．how wildlife is protectedC．what to do with a spare roof D．how to organize a good park2．The underlined word “moderate” in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to “________”.A．raise B．check C．control D．record3．Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?A．A common roof is noisy.B．A green roof is alive.C．A green roof stops pollution.D．A common roof increases the cost.4．The purpose of the passage is to ________.A．introduce the change of green roofs B．solve the problems with green roofsC．show the amazing beauty of green roofs D．describe the advantages(优点) of green roofs02（2023·辽宁朝阳·统考中考真题）Chinese researchers reached the top of Qomolangma on May 4, 2022. They set up the world’s highest automatic(自动的) weather station at an altitude(海拔) of 8,830 meters. This helps them to study the influences of climate change on the environment.It is the highest automatic weather station in the world now. It has taken the place of the station sitting at an altitude of 8,430 meters on the south side of the mountain, which is the second highest now. This allows Chinesescientists to directly collect data(数据) for the first time from the top of the world’s highest mountain.Collecting and studying data from Qomolangma is not easy. But the data will give valuable information about the condition of local glaciers(冰川) and mountain snow. It will also help scientists study and understand the global monsoon(季风) system, so experts can make proper decisions about climate change.Yao Tandong, a famous expert, said Chinese scientists had set up eight weather stations from 5,200 to 8,830 meters above sea level. Half of the stations were set up at an altitude higher than 7,000 meters. “Along with strong government support and hard work by scientists, China has become a global front-runner in fields such as climate change.” Yao said.5．What is the altitude of the highest automatic weather station?A．5,200 meters.B．7,000 meters.C．8,430 meters.D．8,830 meters.6．What does the underlined word “It” refer to(指代) in Paragraph 3?A．Reaching the top of Qomolangma.B．The influences of climate change.C．The data from Qomolangma.D．The highest automatic weather station.7．How many weather stations were set up at an altitude higher than 7,000 meters?A．Two.B．Four.C．Six.D．Eight.8．Which statement(陈述) is NOT right according to the passage?A．Chinese scientists can directly collect data from the top of Qomolangma now.B．It is hard to collect and study data from Qomolangma.C．The second highest weather station is on the north side of the mountain.D．China has made great achievements in fields such as climate change.9．In which part of a newspaper can we find the passage?A．Science.B．Sports.C．Travel.D．Health.03（2022秋·山东济宁·九年级统考期末）Music plays an important role in the lives of people all over the world. That is why many wonder what influences their tastes in music. Could your music list show something about your personality?One study by Heriot-Walt University offered a possible answer by an experiment. Here are the results it found: Pop Music. Fans of top 40 pop hits are likely to be outgoing and honest. While pop music lovers are hard-working and have high self-esteem(自尊), researchers suggest that they may be less creative and easy to get worried.Rap or Hip-Hop Music. People usually believe that rap lovers are more aggressive(好争斗的), but researchers have found no such connection. They say rap fans are likely to have high self-esteem and are usually outgoing.Rock or Heavy Metal Music. Although sometimes rock or heavy metal music seems aggressive, researchers found that fans of this style of music are usually quite gentle. They can be creative, but are often shy and have low self-esteem.Classical Music. Classical music lovers are typically shyer but also feel comfortable with themselves and the world around them. They are creative and have a good sense of self-esteem.Though personality alone does not explain musical preferences, this experiment helps you know yourself and others better.10．What’s the purpose of the study?A．To know what kind of music people like most.B．To tell people the importance of listening to music.C．To show people which kind of music they should listen to.D．To test the relationship between a person’s personality and his or her music list.11．How might a person’s personality be if he or she is a fan of pop music?A．Quiet and shy.B．Serious and strict.C．Friendly and polite.D．Outgoing and honest.12．What kind of music does Mrs. Green like listening to if she feels relaxed about the world around her?A．Pop music.B．Rock music.C．Classical music.D．Rap music.13．What’s the best title for the text?A．Music and hobby B．Music and personalityC．Fans and music D．Researchers and music04（2022秋·湖北襄阳·九年级统考期中）My blood type (血型) is AB, which only 7 percent of Chinese have.

If so, you’ve experienced “hangry (饿怒)” —some people get angry easily as they are hungry. The reason for this lies in what happens inside your body when it needs food.Everything you eat would be changed into different kinds of nutrients (营养物质) in your body. These nutrients would enter your blood and be passed to every part of your body and be used for creating energy. As time passes after your last meal, these nutrients in your blood drop. Also, your blood glucose (血糖) drops. Unlike other parts in your body, your brain totally depends on blood glucose to do its job. You’ve probably already noticed that simple things can become difficult when you are hungry and your blood glucose levels drop. You may find it hard to pay attention. For example, you may make silly mistakes in your study and homework. You might also have noticed that you can’t even speak clearly when you’re too hungry.Another thing that happens when you’re hungry is behaving impolitely and can’t control yourself, such as snapping at others. In that case, even though you may already try your best to avoid conflict (冲突) with important friends, you may still be too angry to control yourself when you are staying with the people you are most relaxed with. That’s why you may find yourself being impatient with your parents or friends.So what should we do to avoid being hangry? The easiest way is to eat something before you get too hungry. The best choice is to have some nutrient - rich and natural foods that help deal with hunger quickly and can be kept in our body as long as possible, but not fast food. The final way is to suggest that difficult situations should be dealt with after a meal, not before.17．When does “hangry” usually happen?A．When the body needs food.B．When nutrients enter your body.C．When the blood glucose levels drop.D．When it’s hard for you to pay attention.18．What does the underlined words “snapping at” mean in Chinese?A．称赞B．呵斥C．嘲笑D．帮助19．Which paragraphs tell the influence of being hangry?A．①②B．②③C．③④D．④⑤20．Which is one of the ways to deal with hunger?A．Eat something after you get too hungry.B．Stay with people you are most relaxed with.C．Deal with difficult situations after meals.D．Eat a little junk food before you are hungry.21．Who is the text written for?A．Doctors.B．Teachers.C．Parent.D．Students.06（2022秋·山东菏泽·九年级统考期中）Have you ever thought about why you are the way you are? And what does your personality（性格）connect with? Recent research has showed that the position（位置）in which we are born in our family plays a very important role in forming personality.The eldest childBeing the only child, the eldest enjoys all their parents’ attention. However, new parents usually expect to see their child do well. And the eldest child tries to meet these expectations. As a result, the eldest children are usuallypolite and traditional. The problems come with the birth of another child. Suddenly the attention they’re used to receiving becomes weaker. Then, they don’t feel safe and will try to do all they can to make their parents happy.The second childThe second child has no experience of life without a brother or sister, so they never know how their brothers or sisters feel when they suddenly have to share the attention. The second children are often more outgoing and always looking for ways to get attention. One of the most common ways to achieve this is by making people laugh and the second children are often the jokers of the family. Again, problems can appear when another baby arrives. Suddenly, the second child becomes the middle child and may lose a clear sense（意识）of where they are.The third childWith the birth of their third baby, parents will often feel this is their last chance to bring up a child. This means the youngest child, more often than not, is spoilt（溺爱）with attention and love. This can lead them to be very self-centered, believing that the world moves around them. They are always treated as the “baby” of the family so they don’t do as well as they could do. They like doing things in unexpected ways, so they are also likely to be creative. 22．What influences people’s personality according to the text?A．Birth place.B．Birth weight.C．Birth order.23．What does the underlined word “they” refer to in the text?A．The eldest children.B．The second children.C．The parents.24．Compared to the first child, the second child is _________ according to the text.A．more polite and traditionalB．more humorous and outgoingC．more creative and confident25．According to the text, if Tom thinks mainly about himself and always has new ideas, he might be _________.A．the eldest child B．the second child C．the third child07（2022秋·山东菏泽·九年级统考期中）It is said that tea can improve creative power(力量) of the literary(文学的) artists in ancient China.According to Lu Yu’s Cha Jing, tea-drinking in China can be traced back(追溯) to the Zhou Dynasty—tea was discovered by Shen Nong and became popular as a drink in the State of Lu because of Zhou Gong.Tea-drinking in China has a long history of four thousand years. As the legend(传说) has it, Shen Nong tasted hundreds of wild plants in order to prevent people from eating the poisonous plants. It is said that he was once poisoned but was saved by eating some leaves of an evergreen(常青的) plant with white flowers. Later, people called the leaves that saved his life “cha”.In modern times, people still keep tea-drinking as one of their everyday activities. According to the study, tea can also influence some modern illnesses. To those who have to work with computers for a long time, drinking tea can help them to recreate a new balance(平衡) in their bodies. And to those old people, drinking tea is also a good way to make them have a longer life.26．Tea-drinking in China can be traced back to ________.A．the Zhou Dynasty B．the Xia Dynasty C．the Tang DynastyA．供饮用的B．美味的C．有毒的28．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us?A．The birth of tea.B．Tea became popular.C．Shen Nong was once poisoned.29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Tea can improve creative power of the computer workers in ancient China.B．Tea became popular as a drink in the State of Lu because of Zhou Gong.C．People don’t keep tea-drinking as one of their everyday activities.30．What is the main idea of this passage?A．The legend of Shen Nong.B．The history of tea-drinking in China.C．Tea can influence some modern illnesses.参考答案：1．A 2．C 3．B 4．D【导语】本文讲述介绍了绿色屋顶，并介绍了其好处。

Sometimes the water comes from underground spring s.The water that finally forms a river collects in an area called the watershed .(分水岭) You would probably need rubber boots to walk in a watersed in springtime . The ground would be wet with spring rains or melted snow . Watersheds are usually high up on hills or mountains . Rain and melting snow flow through the watershed and form tiny streams .（溪）As the streams flow downhill. They join together . The place where a river begins is called its headwatersRivers get bigger when stream flow into them . These streams are called tributaries .（支流） A smaller river also can be a tributary of a larger river . A big river and its tributaries form a river system .Have you ever seen a flood ?

They worked outside the Tiangong space station for nearly 8.5 hours. With the help of space equipment (设备) and a team on Earth, they successfully completed many tasks during their spacewalk, including some difficult fixing tasks. Now they have returned to the Wentian lab module (实验舱). The third crew member, Li Cong, stayed inside Tiangong to provide support.The Shenzhou-18 crew has set a new record for the longest single spacewalk by Chinese astronauts.This marked Ye’s second time to have a spacewalk, and his first spacewalk was in the Shenzhou-13 mission, but this is the first time for Li Guangsu to start a spacewalk.The mission will include many tasks. First of all, the three members will do a series of space science experiments (实验) and many necessary tests. And then, they will carry out more activities and do some fixing work outside the space station. The three astronauts will work on board Tiangong until late October, according to the CMSA．So far, Chinese astronauts have successfully carried out 15 spacewalks in all. On September 27, 2008, astronaut Zhai Zhigang in Shenzhou-7 mission made history as China’s first person to take a spacewalk, which lasted about 19 minutes.The Shenzhou-15 crew has achieved a milestone (里程碑) by having 4 spacewalks, marking the highest number of spacewalks by a single Chinese astronaut crew.The Shenzhou-17 members completed, for the first time, the repair work to keep the equipment in good condition during their second spacewalk, which lasted about 8 hours.1．What is the news mainly about?A．Li Cong provided support inside the space station.B．The Shenzhou-17 crew started to carry out new tasks.C．The Shenzhou-18 crew completed the first spacewalk.D．Ye Guangfu worked outside the space station for 8.5 hours.2．What is the new record set by the Shenzhou-18 crew?A．The longest single spacewalk.B．The most difficult fixing tasks.C．The most successful experiments.D．The highest number of spacewalks.3．What will the three members do in their mission according to the passage?A．Planting some fruits.B．Giving lessons to students.C．Receiving education.D．Doing many necessary tests.4．Which of the following is TRUE according to the last 3. paragraphs?A．The Shenzhou-17 crew has completed 4 spacewalks in all.B．China has made great achievements in Space Technology so far.C．Zhai Zhigang made history by taking a spacewalk for 190 minutes.D．The Shenzhou-15 crew completed the repair work for the first time.5．Where can we read the article?A．In a novel.B．In a newspaper.C．In a fashion magazine.D．In a film guide.03（24-25九年级上·黑龙江哈尔滨·期中）So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites (卫星) and spaceships into space. However, many people don’t know many traditional Chinese cultures have an influence on our space science.Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’ e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Change I. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.Kua Fu Runs After the Sun (夸父逐日) is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to“visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission.Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2,000 years ago. His discovery made space studytake a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology.1．In China, space scientists get ideas from ________ when naming satellites.①old stories②traditional projects③ancient famous peopleA．①②B．①③C．②③2．What do we know about Chang’e I according to the passage?A．It moves around the moon.B．It protects the Jade Rabbit.C．It is the world’s first man-made satellite.3．How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 4?A．By listing numbers.B．By comparing facts.C．By giving an example.4．Which is the right structure (结构) of the passage?(①= Paragraph 1 ②= Paragraph 2,...)A．B．C．5．What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing the passage?A．To spread the traditional Chinese culture.B．To explain how our scientists develop the space industry (太空产业).C．To tell how traditional Chinese cultures influence our space science.04（24-25九年级上·江苏盐城·期中）Space tourism (太空旅游业) is no longer a thing of science fiction. There are lots of companies planning tosend people into space in the next few years. Space X is one of the most famous companies offering trips to space. So far it has had over 100 customers. And in April, 2022, it sent 4 people into space. Now what can space tourists do while in space?Here are some examples:See the Earth from SpaceSeeing the Earth from a distance has always been a dream. It gives most people a sense of both achievement and wonder, just like people climb the highest mountain and dive the deepest sea on the earth.Stay in a Space HotelHotels are directly connected with tourism, right? So if there’s space tourism, there might also be space hotels up soon. Orion Span has been planning to send tourists to stay in their “space hotel”.Eat in SpaceEating is not easy in space. Even drinking water is difficult. Oh, a quick fact! You aren’t allowed to burp (打嗝) in space! Bubbles will come out of your mouth and it might be dangerous to leave them around.Visit the Moon and Other PlanetsSpace tourism companies are racing to launch (发射) the first tourist flight to the moon. Although there might be a long way to go before common people can step on the moon, we will probably see it in our life-time. And who knows.With the industry rapidly developing, space tourism is around the corner, and it might come much faster than we think. Who knows what the future might be like?

2024年中考英语新热点时文阅读—音乐与舞蹈
2024年中考英语新热点时文阅读-音乐与舞蹈01（2024·四川成都·一模）Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes. Here, let’s look at the following two.Music and HearingA recent study by researcher Nina Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can make a person’s hearing ability become better. In the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group weren’t. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.Think about violinists in a show. When they play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and leave out the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise.Music and SpeakingGottfried Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. Dr. Schlaug was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to finally speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn’t sure. Music seems to help patients to use the brain again.From the results, we can know that music is a good influence on concentration, the ability to focus on one thing. It works on listening and speaking skills as well. Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school as well. So music is not only enjoyable, it’s also good for us in many other ways.1．Which two groups of people took part in Nina Kraus’ study?A．Noisy people and quiet people.B．Musicians and non-musicians.C．Violinists and other musicians.2．Why are the violinists mentioned (提及) in paragraph 3?A．To describe what they did in a show.B．To show how important they are in the study.C．To better explain why musicians hear more clearly.3．How does Gottfried Schlaug help stroke patients speak?A．By playing music for them.B．By asking them to sing words.C．By getting them to play an instrument.4．What’s the passage mainly about?A．Music makes people listen carefully and hear well.B．Music can be well used in medical research.C．Music helps with people’s language abilities.5．In which magazine might we read this passage?A．B．C．02（2024·陕西西安·一模）The Zeng Houyi Chime Bells (编钟) were uncovered from the Zeng Houyi Tomb in Suizhou, Hubei Province in 1978. They are historically important treasure of China.The Zeng Houyi Chime Bells are hung at three levels and are set in eight groups. There are 19 bells in three groups at the top level, 33 bells in three groups at the middle level and 12 bells in two groups at the bottom level. Besides, there is a much larger bell used to adjust pitch (调节音高). The bells in each row are different from one another in shape and size.The Zeng Houyi Chime Bells are hung on two sets of wood racks (架子), One rack is 7.48meters long and 2.65 meters wide. The other rack is 3.35 meters long and 2.73 meters wide. The two racks are perpendicular to each other, which forms an angle of ninety degrees.The Zeng Houyi Chime Bells weigh a total of 5 tons. The biggest bell is of 153.4 cm in height and 203.6 kg in weight while the smallest bell is of 20.4 cm in height and 2.4 kg in weight.Five musicians were needed to play the instrument in the past. These bells have no clappers (铃舌) and are sounded by striking. Because of their shape, each bell could produce two different tones (音色)—one if struck at theside, the other at the center. The whole set of chime bells is able to produce all the tones of a modern piano. 6．How many bells does the whole set of chime bells have in all?A．45.B．52.C．64.D．65.7．Which picture shows that two lines are “perpendicular” to each other?A．B．C．D．8．What does the fifth paragraph mainly tell us?A．How these bells were played in the past.B．How many musicians were needed to play the bells in the past.C．Why the chime bells have no clappers.D．How many tones each bell could produce.9．The following paragraph can best go after ________.In brief, there are more than 2, 800 Chinese characters relating to music and the making of the instrument on the bells. Instruments of such a scale and such fine craftsmanship (工艺) were quite rare (稀有的) in the world at the time.A．Paragraph 1B．Paragraph 3C．Paragraph 4D．Paragraph 503（22-23九年级下·湖南长沙·期中）What do you usually use memes (表情包) for? Two young women have turned fun memes into dance moves. They’ve gained about 800,000 fans with their funny performances.Asuan, 26, and Lidawang, 29, are two graduate students of Beijing Dance Academy. They wanted to create something different from the beautiful stage performances that they learned in school.“We gradually found our own styles—funny memes, cartoons, or games, we take these periods of young people’s pop culture and recreate them,” said Lidawang.However, being funny doesn’t mean they don’t put their heart into the dance moves. Memes are popular becauseof their expressiveness (表情丰富), and recreating that expressiveness with dance can be very challenging. It usually takes them one to six months to create a two-minute dance video. To improve their moves they would record their rehearsals (排练) and then look at their moves over and over again.Asuan even made a teaching video for one of their most popular dances—“the Yellow Alien”, based on the meme from the Spanish song Dame Tu Cosita. She worked out how to act like aliens—the relaxed shoulder, the deep squat (深蹲) move and the surprised but childish eyes. As many fans send them “homework” videos, their meme dances are becoming new memes themselves too.“The nature of dance is to express and communicate. What we communicate and pass on to others is happiness and entertainment (娱乐),” said Lidawang.“We’re happy to call ourselves ‘comedians in the world of dance’,” added Asuan.10．What do we know about Asuan and Lidawang’s dance style?A．It is popular among the students at Beijing Dance Academy.B．It is based on what they learned at school.C．It comes from the pop culture of young people.11．Why are their dances challenging?A．Because it is hard to find enough popular memes.B．Because it is difficult to recreate the expressiveness with dance.C．Because each move needs one to six months to check and discuss.12．“The Yellow Alien” in the passage is ________.A．a Spanish song B．a popular dance C．a teaching video13．Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?A．The two girls express the nature of dance in a special way.B．The two girls become very popular without making much effort.C．The two girls just take the memes from Chinese culture.14．What is the passage mainly about?A．Memes based on funny dances.B．Popular dances among young people.C．Two dancers and their special dances.04（23-24九年级上·山东聊城·期末）68-year-old Xu Lili stands out in a group of young people. She goes square dancing every night with her friends in the center of Harbin, Heilongjiang. Their dancing has strong music and great movements, making it more like disco than the slow traditional Chinese square dancing. Xu is the organizer and the only old one in the group. Most dancers are in their 20s. “Grandma Xu may be old, but we all learn from her,” says Zhang Dongkai, 23. “She is our leader.”Most of her friends are young people. She has danced with them for more than 10 years. She doesn’t like slow dance. Dancing is the happiest part of her day. It not only keeps her healthy, but also makes her happy. Her dancing makes her famous on the Internet, with many people speaking highly of her dancing.Not looking after grandchildren, now more elderly Chinese are enjoying their own lives. Wang Y un, 72, goes to a dance class for the old people every week at Harbin University. It is one of the earliest universities for the elderly in China. Hundreds of old people have taken lessons there in the past thirty years. The age of Wang’s dance class is over 60.

There are top educational resources (资源), world famous teachers and outstanding students in this university. If we spend years studying there, we surely will get a good job and live a better life in the future. However, there must be a lot of challenges and difficulties on the way. So I will accept (接受) the wolf father‟s strict educational style if it can really make my dream come true.Liu Boyu, 15:I would accept a wolf father because I really need a strict person to help me control (控制) myself.

I believe under his strict control I can study better and go to one of the key universities.NOShi Yunting, 16:I will not accept a wolf father. I don‟t think I can get used to his educational style. It would make me too tired to enjoy the golden moments of my childhood. Besides, entering Peking or Tsinghua University doesn‟t mean that I will certainly have a bright future. I think studies should be a pleasant thing. We should study in the way that we like.Liu Jiahui, 16:I don‟t believe life is only made for studying. There are many meaningful things to do in life. Studying is one of them. So I will say no to the wolf father‟s educational style. Even if I don‟t enter a university as good as Peking or Tsinghua University, I would still be very happy because I would be going to a university as a person, not a learning machine.Strange syndrome turns teen into a real Sleeping Beauty现实中的“睡美人”。
