She was very curious and went to find out. A boy was sitting under a tree. He was playing music. He had blue eyes and red cheeks(脸颊). A squirrel and two rabbits were watching him and listening to the music. When he saw Mary he said, "I'm Dickon. I know who you are. You are Miss Mary. " He took out a parcel(包裹)"Here are the garden tools. I bought some packets of seeds(种子), too. ""Please show them to met" said Mary."If you like," Dickon said, "I can plant them for you. Where's your garden?""Can you keep a secret?" she said"I keep secrets all the time," Dickon laughed."I stole a garden," Mary said quickly. "Nobody wants it. Perhaps everything is dead in it already. I don't know. " She began to cry."Where is it?" asked Dickon."Come with me," she said.She took him along the path to the wall with the ivy(常春藤)on it. Then she unlocked the door and they went in together."Here it is," she said. "It's a secret garden.”Dickon's blue eyes opened wide in surprise as he looked at the garden."It's very pretty," he whispered. "It's like being in a dream. In the spring there are going to be loads(大量的)of birds' nests here. ""Are the roses alive or dead?" Mary asked him. He went up to an old tree and pointed at the branch(树枝). It was dry and grey but there was a small green bit growing on it."This bit's alive," he explained. "But there's a lot of old wood that is dead. We must cut it off.There are going to be lots of roses here this summer." They went from bush to bush and from tree to tree. He was very strong and clever with his knife. He knew how to cut off the dry and dead wood"There's a lot of work to do here," he said."Can you come again and help me?" Mary asked him. "Please, Dickon!""Yes, every day if you like," he answered."Please, please don't tell anyone about the secret garden, Dickon," she said."Of course not," answered Dickon.

Have you ever hiccupped so hard that you had to stop what you were doing? The hiccups is a problem that almost everyone has experienced.The reasons for getting hiccupsPeople get hiccups for some reasons. Hiccups might result from eating or drinking too much or too quickly. A sudden change in the stomach’s temperature, such as drinking hot water immediately after drinking cold water, mayalso cause hiccups. They may even happen because of being excited or being under a lot of stress.Making hiccups go awayIdeas on how to stop hiccups have been created, shared, and tried for years. However, what works for one person may not work for everyone. Perhaps the most common method people use is to hold their breath for a few seconds. If this doesn’t work, you can try swallowing (吞下)hard while holding your breath. There are also some strange-sounding ways, like drinking a lot of water. Someone might even try to scare away hiccups.Ideas for curing (治愈)hiccups often include things found in the kitchen. Some people put sweet and sour things into water. Many people believe that eating some sugar can make hiccups go away.Award-winning methodIn 2010, a young girl named Mallory Kievman couldn’t make her hiccups go away. None of the ideas that she knew worked for her. So she decided to find her own cure for hiccups. She knew that sweet and sour things were commonly used to cure hiccups, and she knew that swallowing hard could also help. She decided to use the two ideas to make a special lollipop(棒棒糖). She experimented with different things in the kitchen. After she failed many times, Mallory invented a lollipop that worked by putting water, sugar and vinegar (醋) together. She named her invention Hiccupops.Mallory wanted to find out whether her lollipops would help others. She gave her lollipops to friends. Most of them were cured of their hiccups after eating the lollipops.Mallory entered a competition with her lollipop and won three awards for her creative idea.1.Why does the writer begin the passage with the ideas in Paragraph 1?A.To make the time of getting hiccups clear.B.To suggest what it feels like to have hiccups.C.To explain to us why people have trouble curing hiccups.D.To interest us in a subject that many people have experienced.2.In which situation will you probably get a hiccup? .A.Y ou are going to take an exam without preparation.B.Y ou drink a bowl of soup slowly.C.Y ou swallow some medicine.D.Y ou eat a Hiccupop.3.The way people use most to stop hiccups isA.holding the breath for a few secondsB.swallowing hard while holding the breathC.drinking a lot of waterD.eating some lollipops4.Which of the following is TRUE about Mallory Kievman?A.It was not easy for her to invent her lollipops.B.The ingredients (材料)of her lollipops aren’t easy to find.C.Her lollipops can help everyone get away from hiccups.D.She won three competitions with her lollipops.D16、There are plenty of possible reasons why you don't have any flow-ers near you. Perhaps, you just don't like them. Or maybe someone nearby doesn't. Maybe you're at work, and flowers are not allowed. Assuming(假定)the problem is simply that you don't have time to go out and get flowers, you may be surprised to learn just how easy it actu-ally is.It's good to get flowers for yourself, but even better to be given them. I'm sure you know this, just as I'm sure there's someone special in your life who feels the same way. So why not take the chance to make someone happy, and get them some flowers? I know, you would, but it's just too much trouble. Well, that's where you're wrong!It' s a good excuse, and while it might have worked in the past, I'm afraid it doesn't work any more. Perhaps you are really too busy to go into town and get some flowers. On the other hand, the fact that you are reading this clearly shows that you have enough time to go online. Nowadays, you can buy pretty well anything online, and yes that includes flowers. By the way, there's another point to consider here. Price. I'm sure you've noticed that you can usually get things cheaper if you buy online, and flowers are no exception(例外). For the same price as a few roses, you could have a full bouquet of flowers picked and arranged by an expert.So why are you still here? Go online, and hunt down some flowers! There are plenty of flower shops available(可得到的),and you should have no trouble finding one thatdeliversnear you, espe-cially if you live in a city or large town. Then you're just a few clicks away from a beautiful bouquet.根据材料内容选择最佳答案,将其标号填入题前括号内1.This passage mainly tells us that______.A.there are few flowers around us nowB.flowers are not allowed in the workplacesC.people don't like flowers any moreD.how we can get flowers when we're busy2.From the third paragraph, we can know that______.A.we can get flowers with the help of the InternetB.it is very difficult for us to get more flowersC.everyone used to be very busy with their workD.we are too busy to surf the Net3.The underlined word "delivers" in the last paragraph means____.A.买B.邮寄C.预订D.传授4.The following reasons why you don’t like flowers are talked about except A.Y ou don’t like the flowersB.The flowers are expensiveC.Y ou’re at workD.Flowers aren’t allowed5.What's the purpose of the author's writing this passage?A.To advise people to buy flowers online.B.To explain why people don't buy flowers.C.To list the advantages of buying flowers online.D.To share some information about a flower shop.E17、1.Theabove material is probably from a .A.Newspaper B.Textbook C.Website D.magazine2.Who is the above material especially for?A.Science B.Doctors of chemistryC.Animal lovers D.Middle school students3.Which part doesn’t include a listening material?A.MAGIC WORLD B.OUR WORLDC.SCIENCE STUDY D.SCHOOL TIME4.You can read about the following information EXCEPT in SCIENCE STUDY.A.What people find in the human body B.A kind of animalC.The secret of names D.Chemical colors5.If you want to learn something about the customs in a foreign country, you can read .A.MAGIC WORLD B.OUR WORLDC.READING & WRITING D.FRONTPAGEF18、Saying “thank you” is probably the first thing most of us learn to do in a foreign language. After all, we’re brought up to be kind and polite.So, what exactly are you supposed to say when “thank you” is only the 20th most popular way to express gratitude (感激)? According to a recent report, 19 other ways of expressing gratitude finished ahead of “thank you” in a poll (投票) of3,000 people.Pollsters found almost half those asked preferred the more informal (非正式的) “cheers”, while others liked to use such expressions as “ta”, “great” and “nice one”.So, just what is the right form of words to express your thanks?Luckily, the answer is in the langu age itself. “Cheers” is considered an informal way to say thank you. For example, when going for a drink with friends, a smile and a “cheers” by way of thanks is not only acceptable to the situation, it is also culturallyaccurate.“Ta” was the second-most popular expression of thanks, and is also commonly used in informal situations, along with phrases such as “nice one”, and “wonderful”.Interestingly, one word that didn’t make it into the top 20 was “thanks”. But “thanks” can be useful, as it is able to bridge the divide between “thank you” and the downright relaxed “cheers”.Certain words can double as an expression of thanks as well as delight. For example, words like “awesome”, “brilliant” and “you star” can tell both your pleasure at someone’s action, as well as serving to express your thanks. If you are on the receiving end of a “new” thank you, you can reply with a simple “no problem”, or “sure”.Of course, a simple wave, nod or smile may be all right. For example, if a car driver slows down to let you cross the road, simply raising your hand is enough to show that you are thankful for the driver’s consideration.Sometimes, formality is necessary, and “thank you” is still the best choice in such situations. But students should not worry about when exactly to use certain expressions.Many people in western countries are worried that good manners are in decline (衰退). People are tired of seeing their acts of kindness and service pass without any feedback. So don’t think that your “thank you” was useless o r too formal. The chances are, if you said “thank you”, you made someone’s day.1.(小题1)We can tell from the result of the poll that ______.A.people are worrying about politeness nowadaysB.there are many kinds of expressions of gratitudeC.“thank you” is the most popular expression of gratitudeD.there are more formal expressions of gratitude than informal ones2.(小题2)What does the underlined word “accurate”in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Clear and exact.B.Simple but strange.C.Short and informal.D.Informal but popular.3.(小题3)Which of the following can express gratitude as well as pleasure?A.Sure. B.No problem. C.Ta. D.Y ou star.4.(小题4)In the last paragraph the writer encourages people to ______.A.help others behave wellB.show their gratitude to othersC.continue their language learningD.stop worrying about social activitiesⅤ.书面表达19、临近毕业,学校在学习小组内开展了初中阶段自评和组评活动,假设你是Moonlight 小组的组长,请根据下面表格中的信息和提示,为你的组员Tommy 进行综合素质的评价,写一份素质报告.要求:1、表达清楚、语法正确、上下文连贯;2、要点必须包括所有相关信息,并作适当发挥;3、词数:100 词左右;4、不得使用真实姓名、校名和地名等Tommy is a member of my team called Moonlight.参考答案Ⅰ. 单项选择1、B2、A3、C4、C5、D6、B7、B8、C9、D10、CⅡ. 完形填空11、1.C2.B3.D4.A5.B6.C7.B8.A9.B10.DⅢ. 语法填空12、1.feel 2.began 3.have paid 4.are doing(do) 5.will improve Ⅳ. 阅读理解13、1.B2.B3.B4.A5.C14、1.A2.B3.A4.D5.C15、1.D2.A3.A4.A16、1.D2.A3.B4.B5.A17、1.C2.D3.D4.C5.B18、1.B2.A3.D4.BⅤ.书面表达19、Tommy is a member of my team called Moonlight.

You can also see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.” Mason, a volunteer said.National V olunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity(机会)to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations. Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.The following tips can help if you have some of these worries.★ Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life.★ Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.★ Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.★ Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can help you increase the confidence (自信)and completely understand the organization’s expectations.★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity.Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “little things can change a person’s life for the better.”4.What can volunteering help people with?A.Making a decision.B.Seeing the world clearly. C.Thanking other people.D.Making people’s life better.5.Which of the following can help people to be a volunteer?A.Start out quickly.B.Organize a training meeting.C.Invite a friend to be with them.D.Join in a group with different values. 6.What does the underlined word “veteran” in Paragraph 7 mean?A.experienced B.strict C.young D.polite 7.Why does the author write this passage?A.To encourage people to start their volunteering.B.To tell people to make changes in their lives.C.To introduce how to make achievements in volunteering.D.To tell people how to keep on volunteering.Did you know magnets (磁铁) are all around you? Magnets help you do amazing things! Keep reading! See if you think magnets have surprising uses.Magnets Push or PullLook closely and you will see. Magnets can be found in a fridge. The magnet attracts or pulls the metal to make the door closed. Do you know how? A magnet pulls things made of metals called iron and steel. But it will not pull other things, such as a wooden pencil or a plastic toy, which means it does not attract all.Magnets Have Two Poles (磁极)You have shown magnets can pull some things to them. Why is this true? The two ends of a magnet are its poles. Every magnet has a north pole and a south pole. Have you ever played with trains that have magnets? Sometimes, you try to put two train cars together, but push away from each other. Then you turn one of the cars around. The two cars attract each other rapidly. When the train cars push away, two of the same poles are facing each other. However, if you put the north and south poles together, they will be together immediately.Scientists are using magnets in new ways. There is a new train that uses powerful magnets to travel more quickly. Magnets lift the train above the track (轨道) and push the train forward. The train appears to be moving as fast as wind! They are much faster than thetrains we know. Besides, in medicine, the powerful magnet is used to help patients produce heat to kill cancer cells without harming their body.

Experts say it can be used to write essays and even solve computer coding(解码).So far, it has been used by more than 1 million users after it first appeared on November 30, 2022. Gina Homolka, a food blogger, got it to write a recipe for healthy chocolate-chip cookies. Riley Goodside, a film-maker, asked it to write the script(剧本)for a Seinfeld episode. Roxana Daneshjou, a researcher at Stanford University, asked it some professional medical questions. New research found that the chatbot GPT-3 was able to pass the final exam for the school’s Master of Business Administration (MBA) program and even got a “B”.However, there were other voices about the use of ChatGPT. A large number of students are using ChatGPT for homework assignments, creating challenges around cheating and learning. 89% in the survey report that they have used it to help them finish the homework.In the United States, public schools in New York and Seattle have decided to stopChatGPT from their devices and WiFi networks. In France, the famous Sciences Po university in Paris has also just announced a strict ban(禁令)on its use.Actually, it’s too soon to say what kind of influence ChatGPT will have on our lives.

The whole world has made great efforts to improve the situation. Especially, the trees planted in China are playing an important role.A report published in Nature shows that CO2 absorption (吸收) in two new forest areas in China is more than we thought. The two areas are located in China’s southwestern and northeastern provinces. They make up over 35 percent of China’s carbon sinks. Carbon sinks are natural systems that absorb and store CO2 from the air. The main natural carbon sinks are trees and other plants.According to Paul Palmer, these provinces have been working on rapid forestation (造林) in large areas. Over the past 10 to 15 years, the forest areas have kept increasing by 400—4,400 square kilometers per year.China is one of the world’s biggest countries of human-produced CO2, ________. In 1978, China began a national-level forestation project. Many trees have planted in the areas of northern China to act as windbreaks. For example, about one third of the Kubuqi Desert in Inner Mongolia is now covered with trees. In 2019, Alipay’s Ant Forest program planted 122 million trees and won the UN Champions of the Earth award for helping 500 million people live low-carbon lives.China’s goal is to reach carbon neutrality by 2060. Carbon neutrality refers to removing as much CO2 as one puts into the air. If China’s goal is achieved, it will lower global warming by around 0.2 to 0.3℃ alone, according to Climate Action Tracker (CAT).19.China’s two new forests areas ________.A.play an important role in tree-planting B.are in the southwest and northeast of ChinaC.cover more than half of China’s carbon sinks D.mainly absorb and store trees and other plants20.In Paragraph 3, Paul Palmer shows China’s achievement in forestation by ________. A.using numbers B.asking questions C.giving examples D.comparingfacts21.Which of the following can be put in the ________ in Paragraph 4?A.and it has caused serious environmental problemsB.so the government will take steps to stop air pollutionC.though most of Chinese people are living low-carbon livesD.but our country has been working on reducing its climate influence22.The passage mainly talks about ________.A.what causes global warming B.what China does to lower global warmingC.how China produces so much CO2D.how trees absorb and store CO2 from the airStress(压力)has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. When I was a kid, I stressed over some news reports. Why were there so many bad things happening in the world? And every age and stage comes with new problems; exams, friends, love, loss, job, family and death. One night, while I was facing a writing deadline, I could feel the worry setting in. Was it possible that stress was making me feel good?As a psychologist(心理学家), Catherine Jackson, PhD, says, “In fact, stress is a must for people to live.” Good stress is known as “eustress” and it comes with various advantages. Many studies have shown that “eustress” will help people to keep healthy and energetic.Dr. Jackson finds stress can also increase your power and creativity to complete a task. “Another advantage is improved performance,” she adds. Low levels of stress can make a good influence on brain power and improve memory and learning abilities in short time.Dr. Jackson suggests reconsidering the word “stress” as “pressure”. This could change how you go on to do with the situation. But it's important to tell the difference between them. “Stress nearly takes people's breath away, and the goal is to reduce it,” Dr. Jackson explains, “but pressure is having something depend on your performance for a good result.”I changed the mind about stress that night. For the first time in my life, I was actually considering stress differently. In my case, my deadline finally had a good result. It was almost as if this pressure helped me get the job done. I might never be able to make bad stress disappear completely, but I can change my thoughts, and that's a step in the right direction. 23.The writer was stressful when he was little because of ________.A.news B.exams C.love D.friends24.According to paragraph 2, “eustress” can help people ________.A.stay fit B.get high scores C.find good jobs D.increase creativity25.The underlined word “pressure” in paragraph 4 means something that ________. A.takes your breath away B.changes your mindC.pushes you forward D.makes you nervous26.Which of the following shows the structure of the whole passage?A.B.C.D.The next day would be Christmas, and Della had only $1.87 to buy a gift for Jim. Now, there were only two possessions (财产). One was Jim’s gold watch from his grandfather. The other was Della’s hair.She went to the street with tears. Then she saw a sign, “Hair Goods.”“Will you buy my hair?” asked Della.“I buy hair,” said the woman, “Take your hat off.”“Twenty dollars,” said the woman.“Give it to me quickly,” said Della.The next two hours, she was searching through the stores for Jim’s gift. She found a watch chain (表链) at last. As soon as she saw it she knew that it must be Jim’s although it needed $21.At about seven, Jim got home. “Jim, darling,” she cried, “don’t look at me that way. I had my hair cut off and sold. You don’t know what a nice gift I’ve got for you. Let’s be happy.”“You’ve cut off your hair?” asked Jim.“Cut it off and sold it,” said Della. “Don’t you like me just as well, anyhow?”Jim took out a package and threw it upon the table.“Don’t make any mistake, Della,” he said. “I don’t think there’s anything that could make me like my girl any less. But if you open that package, you may understand.”After opening it, she burst into joy but then she cried. For there lay the set of combs (梳子) that Della had always wanted. They were expensive, she knew. And now, they were hers, but her hair was gone.But she hugged him and said, “My hair grows fast, Jim!”Jim had not yet seen his beautiful gift. She held it out to him. “Isn’t it wonderful, Jim? You’ll look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it.”But Jim put his hands under the back of his head and said, “Let’s put our gifts away. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs.”From The Gift of the MagiBy O·Henry 27.Which is the correct order of the following events?a. Jim came back home at seven.b. Della decided to sell her hair.c. Jim sent a set of combs to Della.d.

浙江省杭州市滨江区2021-2023年中考英语一模试题分类汇编:阅读理解(含答案)

浙江省杭州市滨江区 2021-2023年中考英语一模试题分类汇编 阅读理解 2023年浙江省杭州市滨江区中考一模英语试题 第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。 A Spend the holiday of a lifetime-in a cave! If you like a different kind of holiday, then you'll find these historic caves (山洞) are just what you are looking for. HOW TO GET THERE Fly to the city of Granada, drive to Guadix, and step into a different world. WHAT YOU'LL FIND You probably think caves are primitive (原始的). Well, you haven't seen these caves. A cave house in Guadix can be anything from a small country house to an expensive cave hotel. Come and enjoy the peaceful environment. You'll be surprised to find everything you need — electricity, phone, hot water. Some caves even have a WI-FI connection and others have a Jacuzzi (按摩浴缸)or a swimming pool. YOU WON'T WANT TO LEAVE! Here are a few more reasons to visit Guadix! You'll enjoy the temperature in the cave. It's around 18-20℃, even on a summer day! Cool! You'll see that every cave is. They all have their ow beauty and character. You'll sleep better in the cave than in a normal hotel. You won't believe how relaxed you'll feel. 16. How can you get to the cave hotels from China? A. By air and car. B. By ship or car. C. By train and bus D. By plane or ship 17. What is special about the cave houses? A. They are not as convenient as modem hotels B. They stay cool even during hot summer days. C. The swimming pool is a must for hotels there D. They are in the same size with different styles. 18. In which part of a magazine can you read this text? A. Photos of the week. B. Travel and holidays C. This week's big news. D. Science and technology. B ChatGPT was released (发布) late last year by company OpenAI. The technology chats in a conversational way, answering questions from users. The online chatbot (chat robot) has been trained on lots of information from the Internet - it can have a human-like conversation answering questions, admitting (承认) mistakes and refusing to answer improper questions. Experts say it can be used to write articles, stories, poems and even solve computer problems. But there are limits (限制) to what it can do, which OpenAI admits. Sometimes it writes answers which are incorrect or don't make sense, and it sometimes guesses what the user has asked it instead of asking more follow-up questions to understand the questions better. ChatGPT is getting mixed opinions from people. Some think students might use it to cheat, while others think they should use the tool in the classroom to help children learn. Some people believe that _______▲_______. In their opinion, just like when Google was created, people were unsure at first, but if teachers introduce the technology and teach students the advantages but also the disadvantages, that can help with their learning. In the USA, the New York City education office didn't allow ChatGPT to be used at school and its Internet. They did so because of "bad influence on students' learning, and worries that the answers from ChatGPT are probably not safe or correct". ChatGPT's ability to answer questions caused some users to wonder if it might take Google's place. Others asked if news reporters' jobs were at risk. ChatGPT and other AI systems, have also raised a number of social risks, according to Carly Kind of the Ada Lovelace Institute, an independent research center to make sure AI works for people. Among the possible problems of Al, Ms. Kind mainly worries that Al might store the false information forever. AI has a long way to go, and big ideas yet to discover. We will fall over along the way, and learn a lot from getting in touch with the real world. 19. What do we know about ChatGPT? A. It gives perfect answers to meet users' needs. B. It's a chatbot that can answer questions from users. C. It asks follow-up questions to chat better with users D. It looks like humans and chats with users as a servant 20.Which of the following can be put in the “_______▲_______” in Paragraph 2? A. the chatbot might do harm to teaching B. the chatbot should be welcomed C. the chatbot has no meaning to students D. the chatbot might be better than Google 21. Which of the following questions does this text answer?

Was it very different to life now? What didpeople do? How did they live? Let’s find out!◎The KingsFrom 1700 until 1100 BC, the area of China around the Yellow River was ruled by a family of kings called the Shang. They were rich and very powerful. The king and his family lived in large palaces, decorated with beautiful objects. They had many servants who made them food and did all the work in the palace. When a king passed away, they buried him in an underground tomb and filled it with expensive objects—jewellery (珠宝), works of art and weapons.◎The PeopleThe richest people of ancient China were priests (僧侣) and warriors. They lived in cities with very high walls. The houses were large and made of wood or brick. They wore beautiful clothes.Other people lived outside the walls, in houses made of mud. They were businessmen and craftsmen, so they worked for their living.Most of the people during this time were farmers. They lived in villages in the countryside. They worked in the fields with tools made of stone, grew rice, and kept animals. The best place for farming was by the Yellow River. Here the warm, wet conditions were perfect for growing rice. Farmers lived in small houses made of mud or bamboo. Inside, there wasn’t any furniture, and they slept on the mud floor. They were very poor and lived a very hard life.◎During the time of Shang, there were some interesting inventions. The Chinese discovered how to make bronze, by mixing other metals together. Bronze is an important metal because it is strong and lasts for a very long time.But perhaps the most important development was writing. Once a civilization can write, people can pass on information about themselves, their lives and what they believe. Although the Chinese started writing at this time, they didn’t have paper yet, so people wrote on animal bones, on stones, on bamboo, and even on turtle shells!So far, life for people in ancient China was quite different from our lives today. 19.What does the underlined word “servants” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Plants.B.Animals.C.Persons.D.Buildings. 20.If a man did business during the time of Shang, what kind of house did he live in?A.A house made of brick.B.A house made of mud.C.A house made of bamboo.D.A house decorated with beautiful objects.21.Which of the following can be put in the ________?A.Good Education B.Varied ClothesC.Colorful Cultures D.Important Developments 22.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The Shang family lived an uneasy life.B.The Chinese learned to make bronze objects.C.People wrote and passed on information on the paper.D.The farmers grew rice by the Yellow River because of the perfect soil.Can you imagine a sea of sand three times bigger than India? This is the Sahara Desert, the largest desert in the world. It covers 11 countries in North Africa and is over 9 million square kilometers. That’s more than 25% of Africa.In the Sahara, temperatures are very different during the day and at night. It is much hotter during the day than at night. During the day, the hottest time is between 2 pm and 4 pm, when temperature rises to 33℃. But it is very cold at night—the coldest time is at 4 am, when temperatures fall to -1℃. The Sahara is very dry. The average precipitation (降水) in a year is only 70 millimeters.How to stay alive in the Sahara Desert? Marco Rivera, our survival expert, has some tips.Take warm clothes and a blanket. You will need a hat, long trousers and a woollen jumper to keep you warm at night. During the day, cover your body, head and face. Clothes protect you from the sun and keep water in your body. You will also need a warm blanket at night. It can get cold very quickly. When the temperature drops, it can be a shock and make you feel even colder.A car is easier to see than a person walking in the desert. You can also use the mirrors from your car to signal to planes and other cars. You can use your car tyres to make a fire. A fire is easy to see. It will help people find you and it will keep you warm at night.Try to drink some water at least once every hour. You need your water to last as long as possible. Drink only what you need. When you talk, you lose water from your body. Keep your mouth closed and do not talk.If you eat, you will get thirsty and drink all of your water more quickly. You can eat a little, but only to stop you from feeling very hungry. Eat very small amounts of food and eat very slowly. You can live for three weeks with no food, but you can only live for three days without water.23.The writer leads the topic in Paragraph 1 by ________.A.telling stories B.listing numbersC.giving examples D.making a survey24.According to Paragraph 2, which of the following is RIGHT?A.B.C.D.25.How many pieces of tips does Marco Rivera offer?A.Three.B.Four.C.Five.D.Six. 26.Who would be interested in reading this passage most?A.Someone who likes music.B.Someone studying history. C.Someone good at taking photos.D.Someone studying geography.It was the final part of the 2016 World Triathlon (三项全能) Series in Mexico. With just 700 meters to go, Alistair Brownlee was in third place and his younger brother, Jonny, was in the lead. Alistair pushed himself towards the finish line in the burning heat, but as he came round the corner, he saw his brother about to fall onto the track. Alistair had to choose—brotherly love, or a chance to win the race?For Alistair, the choice was clear. His brother was in trouble. He had to help. Alistair ran towards Jonny, caught him and started pulling him towards the finish line. Alistair then pushed his brother over the line. The move put Jonny in second place and Alistair himself in third. It was an unexpected end to the race, but Alistair did not want to discuss it with the media. He just wanted to see his younger brother, who had been rushed to the medical area.The Brownlee brothers have been doing triathlons since they were children. “Obviously, when your older brother is doing it, you think it’s a cool thing to do,” says Jonny. Alistair says that they encourage each other as much as they can when they train. Despite arguments over “stupid things” now and then, Alistair agrees that having a brother is an advantage. “Throughout my entire life, I’ve had my brother trying to beat me at everything I do. It has been an enormously positive force.”Watched by millions, the ending to the race has divided opinions: should the brothers have been disqualified or highly praised for their actions? But for Alistair, his decision was easy to explain, “Mum wouldn’t have been happy if I’d left Jonny behind.” At that moment, he was no longer an athlete aiming for a medal—he was just a brother.27.From Paragraph 1, we can get the of the story.A.background B.development C.climax (most exciting part)D.ending28.What is the result of the competition?A.Alistair won first place.B.Alistair won second place.C.Jonny won first place.D.Jonny won second place.29.We can infer (推断) from the underlined sentence in Par. 4 that Alistair’smother .A.loves Jonny betterB.will be proud of Alistair’s choiceC.will hate Alistair for losing the gameD.thinks the competition is more important than family love30.The best title for the passage can probably be .A.People’s Opinions B.A Difficult ChoiceC.Just a Brother D.A Bad Decision三、多句选词填空用方框中所给词语的适当形式填空。

But for this seven-year-old girl, gardening isn’t just about fruits and vegetables. It’s about people. “My favorite thing about growing food is doing it with my family and friends.” she says.Kendall began gardening at the age of three, when her grandmother gave her some potatoes, Grandma told her. “Don’t throw away the small ones, because if you put them in the ground, they will grow back.” Kendall tried it and was amazed when the small potatoes grew new leaves.

Today, her garden has grown to include sixty plant beds and twelve trees! When the vegetables and fruits are ripe(成熟的), Kendall says, “I pick them, then I do a food sale so other kids and families can have some.” People who don’t have enough food are invited to take what they need.Kendall is an inspiration to other kids too.

My name is Adam. I’m 12 years old, and I live in Timmins, Ontario, Canada. I’m a huge fan of yours. It’s too bad that the Lions lost in the final game last year. I saw you crying when the game ended, and I started to cry too.

Peoplepredict that electric cars might be more common in the future. Butaccording to a 2021 survey by Pew Research Center, more than half of U, S, adults like gas-powered cars better. They say electric cars are expensive and charging(充电) them is a big problem. For now, most people plan to stick with gas-powered cars. We ask young readers what they think about electric cars.Henry, 12 years old, San FranciscoI think we should all have electric cars. This would cut down air pollutionand allow us to breathe better. Cleaner air also means there will be feweranimals dying. Think of all the lives we have lost by destroying our environment.Some people think electric cars are pricey. But their prices are coming down. What’s more, gas costs a lot more than electricity. Once you use the gas, it’s gone. Anyway, I think we’re going to run out of gas at some point. This will make electric cars a need. Also, do you know that electric cars can travel 33 miles for about a dollar? You can’t say that for gas. All cars should be electric!Sandy, 13 years old, New YorkI don’t think all cars should be electric. First of all, charging stations areless common than gas stations. This makes electric cars a lot less convenientfor long trips. What’s more, cold weather does harm to the batteries (电池).They can’t work well as usual. And electric cars are also more expensive thancommon cars. A new electric car usually costs around $ 11, 000 more than a new gar car. True, electric cars help slow climate change. But throwing batteries away can hurt our planet. 42.Over half of the American adults agree that electric cars ________ according to the survey.A. have no problem in chargingB. are bad for the environmentC. are expensive and less convenientD. can work better in cold weather43.The underlined word “pricey” probably means “________”.A. fastB. slowC. cheapD. expensive 44.Sandy develops her idea mainly by ________.A. telling storiesB. listing factsC. asking questionsD. using sayings 45.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Should all cars be electric?B. Will cars be common in the future?C. Can electric cars help slow climate change?D. Are gas-powered cars bad for the environment?四、任务型阅读(本题有5小题,每小题1分;共计5分)阅读以下对话,从六个选项中选择五个填入空白处(其中一项是多余选项),使对话通顺、合理,意思完整。
