time you slowed down and enjoyed a meal with a friend. Try to get away from fast food and choose slow food. For years, the pace(节奏)of life has increased for many people. They are too busy to cook.Luckily, there are business people who take the chance to provide a “fast ” way to deal with the problem. You can go to the supermarket and buy cooked food. All you have to do is to heat it and you can enjoy your meal in 10 minutes. Still too slow ? OK, just go to a fast-food restaurant , order your meal and within 5 minutes it will be made for you. The problem is health. Fast food has much more fat, sugar,salt, oil and calories (卡路里), and far fewer vitamin's(维生素)than homemade food. And so, since people have always wanted to live longer,a small but growing population is choosing not only fresh food, but also organic(有机的)food. Another reason for changes in eating habits is social. Over the centuries,mealtime has been used to visit , laugh and learn. However, today most of us are having a very different lifestyle! Some people have realized it and they are looking for ways to return to that. Goodbye, McDonald’s. Finally, it m akes you feel good to plan your meal, cook your meal and see your meal looking like the picture in your cook book. So if you’re too busy, maybe it’s time you slowed down and enjoyed a homemade meal. 46. Why do many people buy cooked food in the supermarket ? A. It’s delicious. B. They think it’s a fashion to eat it. C. It saves them time. D.it save them money. 47. The writer thinks we just have to wait _____ minutes at most for our meal in a fast food restaurant. A. five . B.fifteen. C.eight. D. fifth 48. Fast food is low in _________ ? A. salt . B.calories . C.sugar. D. vitamins . 49. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 5 mean ? A. Eating in a fast-food restaurant . B. Visiting friends. C. Having a different lifestyle. . D.Enjoying
slow food. B Last month I went to Kate’s school in the UK.It was really different from my school in China. Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie. Some of Kate’s lessons were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were quite some old words like “thou” and “thee” to mean“you ”. In history we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing a foreign side of history-and hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names! Classes were also a lot more relaxed than in China . Teachers were called “sir ” or “miss”,everyone shouted answers and raised their hands in classes. It was more like a debate than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class. At break we bought potato chips and cookies in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China at 1 o’clock.We had big plates of pie with carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called rice pudding. It was good that I’d had an excellent lunch, because at Kate’s school Monday afternoons are taken up with sports. I played my first game of netball― a bit like basketball, but with some differences. Luckily I’d had a quick look in the rule book before I tried to join in th e game.

D.Strange Lesson in Kate’s School . C Last Tuesday Lucy did a survey on how often the students do the housework at home. Most of students’answers are HARDLY EVER,because their parents do everything for them. Well, it’s necessary to teach your children the importance of doing the housework when they are at an early age. By encouraging your children to do the housework, you not only help them learn the basic life skill that they will need as adults, but also make them feel like they are a necessary part of the family.Christine Field, the writer of Life Skills Kids, says it’s important for parents to ask children to take part in the household chores. “When my son Daniel was about two years old, he loved to be with me when I was doing some washing,”Jane, a full― time mom said to the newspaper. “He couldn’t help me ,but I still gave him towels to wash. Now Daniel is four years old.and he’s our “towel man”! He feels like he is needed.” Letting your children help you with tasks is also helpful for to get close to your kids and understand them well. 54. What can we learn from the paragraph ? A. The writer doesn’t think it is necessary to ask kids to do the housework. B. Most parents do little for their kids. C. The writer did the survey last year.
D. Most students don’t do the housework. 55. Children will be glad to do the housework when . A. They feel like they are needed B. Their friends like doing it C. Their parents are busy D.
Teachers say it is important 56. The und erlined word “basic” means__________ ? A. 专业的 B. 高难度的 C. 完美的 D. 基本的57. Which of the following is TRUE ? A. Housework helps children with their study. B.Teachers ask children to do the chores for their parents. . C.Daniel could fold the clothes when he was two years old. D. Parents should let their children help do the housework. .
D Class, In less than two months , Junior 4 students will take the big exam and graduate.What are they doing to look back on their past four years? Wang Lin,15, from Shanghai ,said that in her class students are writing good bey messages for each other. They are also exchanging each other’s photos. “ Even our English teacher has a project,”said Wang. “ She plans to store the photos of all the students and the English compositions we have written in a CD and give each student one copy”.

2019年广州二模英语试题 A The country is India. A large dinner party is being given in an up-country station by a colonial official and his wife. The guests are army and government officers and their wives, and an American naturalist. At one side of the long table, a spirited discussion springs up between a young girl and an army officer. The girl insists women have long outgrown the jumping- on- a- chair -at-the-sight-of-a-mouse era, and that they are not as anxious as their grandmothers were. The officer says they are, arguing women haven't the actual nerve control of men. “A woman's reaction in any crisis, "the officer says, “is to scream. And while a man may feel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has." The American scientist does not join in the argument but sits and watches the faces of the other guests. As he stares, he sees a slight, though strange look of anxiety come over the face of the hostess. With a small gesture she summons the servant standing behind her chair. She whispers to him. The servant's eyes widen. He turns quickly and leaves the room. No one else sees this, nor the servant when he puts a bowl of milk on the balcony outside the glass doors. The American understands. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing. It is bait for a snake. He realizes there is a cobra in the room. The American's eyes move across the room but he sees nothing. He realizes the snake can only be in one place-under the table. His first reaction is to jump back and warn the others. But he knows any sudden movement will frighten the cobra and it will strike. He speaks quickly, the quality of his voice so arresting that it quietens everyone." I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will count three hundred-that's five minutes-and not one of you is to move a single muscle. Now! Ready!"

第I卷 第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） 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，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。 A Many people would love to leave their jobs behind and have a life-changing adventure overseas. They imagine lying under palm trees as the sun goes down. However, life overseas is not always easy, and many are not prepared for the shock of living in an alien culture. The honeymoon period At first, for those who actually decide to move abroad, life is an exciting adventure. They enjoy exploring their new surroundings, and life seems like an extended holiday. They don’t mind trying the local cuisine and discovering the local culture. They can even afford to practice their foreign-language skills without fear of making mistakes. Trouble in paradise In many cases, when people consider moving to another country, they often fail to realize how different life will be. As time goes by, they become frustrated when language and cultural misunderstandings become a daily headache. In this stage, the visitors begin to withdraw from life in the host country and avoid spending time with local people in favor of mixing with others from their own cultural background. The road to recovery Gradually, most visitors realize they must accept the differences and not fight against them. This change encourages them to improve their language skills and slowly they manage to do the things they could easily do at home, such as opening a bank account. This new-found confidence enables them to see a side of life which very few tourists get to witness. Adjusting to life abroad can often be a real problem. The secret to overcoming it is to stop trying to change your host country: you will not succeed. If not, you risk losing your dream and having to return to the old life you wanted to leave behind. 21. Why do people moving abroad feel excited at first? A. They find foreign living much easier. B. They have the necessary language skills. C. They love the adventure and exploration. D. They enjoy meeting people from different cultures. 22. According to the author, what is the main problem many people moving abroad face? A. Homesickness. B. Culture shock C. Health problems. D. Lack of employment. 23. What would the author suggest people moving abroad do? A. Study the local language. B. Go on holidays frequently. C. Learn how to open a bank account. D. Seek out people from their home country. B Australia loves interesting money. In 1988, it was the first country to replace paper money with special plastic banknotes. Now it’s introduced a new five-dollar bill so technologically advanced that many experts are calling it the money of the future! At first glance, the new note looks much like the old one. It has the same pink colour and main pictures on the front and back. But look closer, and you will notice a clear window running down the middle, surrounded by images of the yellow Prickly Moses, a type of Australian plant. Tilt（使倾斜）the note a little and you will see the Eastern Spinebill, an Australian bird, beating its wings as if trying to fly away. Turn the bill from side to side, and you will notice the picture of a small building at the bottom of the note spins, and the image of “5” changes position. While these moveable features are impressive and entertaining, that was not the reason Australian government officials spent ten years developing them. Their primary purpose was to make it impossible for criminals to produce their own fake notes. The new five-dollar note also has something to help blind people easily identify the money. It has a raised bump alongside the top and bottom, enabling blind people to quickly determine its value. The credit for persuading the Australian government to add this all-important bump goes to 15-year-old Connor McLeod. The blind Sydney teenager came up with the idea in 2014 after being unable to tell how much money he had received for Christmas. Connor says he was so embarrassed at not being able to see the difference between notes that he only carried coins to pay for food at the school cafeteria. To
