Passage 9
He has millions of students from all around the world. They listen to his classes online but never see his face on the screen. Salman Khan, 39, from the US, is the founder of the learning website Khan Academy.
Unlike other online courses that film teachers giving classes, Khan’s videos only use his voice and a digital blackboard for writing. He says he doesn’t want a human face to distract students. Khan also makes hi s classes as short as 10 to 15 minutes so students don’t lose interest. They can also earn (获得) points from taking these classes.
The courses are translated into more than 36 different languages including Chinese. About 80 teachers from the world’s top universities are now also teaching on the website. But all this started nine years ago with just one man－Salman Khan. These kinds of special courses make Khan Academy one of the world’s most popular online education websites.
In 2006, Khan made homemade videos to help his seventh grade cousin with math. He posted the videos online and got thousands of views. This encouraged Khan to make more videos and create his own website Khan Academy.
As a Bangladeshi-American (孟加拉裔美国人), Khan understands that many kids, especially those in developing countries, cannot get a good education. He himself has three degrees (学位) from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and one from Harvard. He wants to
use his knowledge to help more people. Thus, his
courses are all offered for free. “Our mission (任
务) is to provide a free, world-class education for
anyo ne, anywhere,” he said.
Khan’s website has not only become very
popular worldwide but has also won a lot of
respect. Even Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft,
is one of his fans. Gates donated over $1.5
million (9.6 million yuan) to support Khan and
named him the “teacher to the world”.

Passage 10
On Tuesday, there will be a tiny salt shaker(小盐瓶) symbol on menus in some restaurants in New York City. It warns certain meals are high in sodium(钠). The first US city is taking the step to fight against heart disease and stroke(中风).
Any menu item with more than 2.3 grams of sodium in it must have the emblem of a salt shaker in a black triangle. Many scientists give us the advice: A person shouldn’t eat more sodium than the daily limit every day, which equals about one teaspoon of salt.
“It’s not hard to get 2.3 grams of sodium into your mouth,” said Dr Howard Weintraub from New York University Langone Center(预防中心). A study found New Yorkers eat more than 3,200 mg of sodium each day on average(平均), the health department said.
For most Americans, eating in the restaurants such as Chipotle(小辣椒) and Subway(赛百味)is thought to be more healthy. The new menu symbol may be an eye-opener for people who go to eat in these restaurants. Until Tuesday, they may haven’t noticed that there is 2,790 mg sodium in a Chipotle loaded chicken burrito(双层鸡肉卷). And a foot-long spicy Italian sub(香辣三明)has 2,980 mg sodium in Subway.
Getting New Yorkers to start watching their sodium intake is a first step. And people should do more to improve their health. “Things are not going to work out great if all you do is just not eat salt,”Weintraub said. “But maybe, just maybe, they’ll start to watch how much they eat, maybe they will get off the subway a stop earlier and walk, instead of taking the elevator, they will walk two flights, there will be some weight loss.”
1. What’s the symbol on the menus like?
A. A white bottle in the red circle.
B. A tiny salt shaker in a black triangle.
C. A capital letter P in a yellow circle.
D. A coffee cup in a white triangle
2. A Chipotle loaded chicken burrito has ________ sodium more than the daily limit.
A. 490 mg
B. 900 mg
C. 2,790 mg
D. 3,200 mg
3. We can infer (推断) from the passage that __________.
A. all restaurants across the US will use the salt shaker symbol
B. New Yorkers eat one teaspoon of salt each day on average
C. eating too much salt can cause heart disease and stroke
D. New York will ban (禁止) smoking in public places
4. The underlined word “eye-opener” i n the passage probably means “__________”.
A. 喜悦
B. 愤怒
C. 失望
D. 震惊
5. According to Weintraub, which is a healthy life style?
A. People should eat no salt when they are old.
B. Jim takes the elevator up and down.
C. Lucy climbs a long flight of stairs.
D. We should eat meals which are high in sodium.
高盐一直是许多重大疾病的诱因，因此纽约市开始在所有连锁餐厅的菜单上，对钠含量超过2300毫克的食物加上带有小盐瓶的黑色三角形警告标志。科学家们认为让纽约市民意识到自己的钠摄入量是第一步，接下来人们应该采取更多措施提高自身健康意识。1—5 BACDC

Passage 12
Many of us love stories of time travel, aliens, and the future. But Chinese sci-fi (科幻小说) has not seen much attention until now. One work from a Chinese writer made it a hit around the world.
On Aug 23, Liu Cixin, 52, won the world’s top sci-fi prize. He’s the first Asian to ever win the Hugo Award. Liu received the award for Best Novel through his book The Three-body Problem (《三体》).
Liu’s winning work takes the reader back to China in the 1970s. In the book, scientists found a planet with three suns. The aliens on the planet created their own civilization (文明) called “three-body”. The aliens planned to invade (入侵) Earth, but humans on Earth started to form camps to protect themselves from danger.
Liu uses his professional background in computer engineering to write the book. His work is seen as “hard science fiction”, which aims for scientific accuracy (准确). Some say this is why Liu’s novels stand out among other similar Chinese books.
The Chinese culture in Liu’s work also makes his book special. For example, Liu’s work talks about filial piety (孝顺). This is a theme Western sci-fi doesn’t pay much attention to. According to Liu, China is growing quickly and is full of temptations (诱惑). This makes it the perfect time for sci-fi. Most importantly, Liu’s work, like many successful works of science fiction, is popular with people who are unsure of the future.
“People nowadays are locked in this small box of reality, but science fiction is a way to broaden our minds,”said Liu.
1. According to the article, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Liu Cixin is the first Asian to win the world’s top sci-fi prize.
B. The Hugo Award is an award for science fiction.
C. Liu Cixin wrote The Three-body Problem with his friend.
D. The Three-body Problem is a story set in the past.
2. In The Three-body Problem, _____.
A. there was one sun in the system
B. humans and the aliens were friends
C. the aliens wanted to invade Earth
D. humans gave up fighting against enemies
3. What makes The Three-body Problem different from Western Sci-fi?
A. It is based on scientific accuracy.
B. Readers can find Chinese culture in the book.
C. It includes some uncertain parts about the future.
D. It can broaden people’s minds.
4. According to the passage, who will love The Three-body Problem?
A. Jim who never wins the Hugo Award.
B. Lucy who was born in the 1970s.
C. David who doesn’t get on with his parents.
D. Lily who doesn’t make sure what will happen in the future.

Passage 13
Do you love the city life or the life in the countryside? Many people want to move from the country to the city because they think that life in the city is more exciting and better than in rural areas, especially younger people who like new, modern things.
Often people like to be fashionable and feel they can find the latest styles only in the city. Other people are interested in technological（技术的）things and high tech jobs and think they can find them only in a big city. If they want to find a job, especially a good position in a company,
they feel they have to live in a city. To enjoy these jobs, they are willing to put up with many of the disadvantages of city life such as crime, high traffic, and pollution.
However, it is now possible to enjoy a higher quality of life in the countryside and still enjoy some of the advantages of living in the city. Nowadays, travel is fast and information is available on the Internet, so many people are able to do their work in home offices.
Because they have e-mail and personal computers, they don't have to be in big cities to do their business. It is not important where they actually work because the results of their work can be sent everywhere. So, why should they put up with all the disadvantages of the city any longer? Now they can escape noisy city life to enjoy life in the countryside and still be able to do good business and successful careers.

初中英语阅读理解常见题型及答题技巧 从近几年的中考阅读理解情况看，短文体裁多样，题材各异，文章涉及科学知识、社会文化、政治历史、人文环境和日常生活等方面，充分体现其时代性、实用性。短文难度逐年加大。常见题型有主旨题、细节题、推断题、猜测词义题和正误判断题。 做阅读理解练习应先看问题，弄清考点。在阅读短文之前，快速浏览问题，以便在阅读短文时做到心中有数，快速、准确地捕捉所要信息。先易后难。做题时不必拘泥于书中所呈现的语篇顺序，应遵循先易后难的原则。如可先做细节题再做推断题，因为细节题大多能直接从文中找到答案，而推断题则需对短文进行深层理解，再作判断。 （一）主旨题 主旨题主要考查学生对短文中心思想或作者意图的掌握。做此类题时，应通读全文，理解文章大意，充分理解主题句的意义。短文往往围绕主题句展开，主题句通常出现在短文第一句或最后一句。 （二）细节题 细节题是用来进一步表达主题，体现中心思想的，往往针对短文某个细节来设题。做此类题时，应快速捕捉信息，可能是一些事例、数字等，阅读时要有针对性。 （三）推断题 推断题就是根据某个事实推断结论，主要考查学生的理解力和推断力。这类推断通常包括：数据事实推断、常识推断以及作者的写作目的、态度和倾向等的推断。做此类题时，应根据短文中的相关语句，对与事实有关的细节加以分析，找出线索，悟出字里行间的意思，反复比较，从而作出合乎逻辑的判断。 （四）猜测词义题 猜测词义题主要考查学生根据上下文正确判断灵活变化的词义能力。一般情况下，推断词义的题目中所出现的单词，大多数是学生未曾见过的生词，学生需要在该词出现的上下文中去寻找线索。通过阅读上下文，断定该词的真正含义，然后将这个释义代入文中，检查是否贴切，仔细比较直到得出该词的确切的含义。 （五）正误判断题 正误判断题主要考查学生对文章的具体事实、信息的理解能力。一般是根据文章的事实或细节，给出一个句子，判断其正误。这类题比较直接，难度相对较小。做此类题时，应先看题，后带着“问题”快速阅读短文，寻找所需要的信息。初中英语阅读理解题已成为评估学生英语水平的重要测试题型，在中考英语试卷中所占比重较大。阅读理解题主要是考查学生综合运用所学语言知识的能力，包括细节理解能力、词义判断能力、归纳概括能力及逻辑推理能力等。大致来说，阅读理解题主要针对如下方面：（1）个别词语或句子；（2）某一细节或情节；（3）主题；（4）背景知识；（5）结论或结局；（6）内涵隐意或寓意等。下面本人就根据阅读理解题的题型特点，来谈一些答题技巧。 一、直接理解题 这种题目比较简单，只要通读全文，了解文中所叙述的重要事实或细节就可以解答出来，有的甚至可以从文章的原句中直接找到答案。此类题目的出题形式很多，例如：

That's how thousands of people start their day at Laughter （笑声）Clubs around the world and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy. The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria. "Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day," says Dr. Kataria.
