I felt very happy,because we went to the Shanghai Waterworks Museum.First,we went to a grey building. It was built more than fifty years ago and it has a long history. We entered this building and saw a large fish bowl in the wall. However, there were only five plastic fishes in it. It means that we will no longer see real fishes if we waste water.After that,we went upstairs. There we saw a big and blue poster. At the top of the poster there was a water tap. It told us we must save water.We can't live without water just like animals can't live without air.On the left side was the NO.3121 water supply station Two women were washing the clothes.In the water there was sands and stones.

When we learn that a villager loses his life on his way to look for water for other villagers, when we hear that an old lady drinks dirty water to say alive, when we see cracks at the bottom of dry lakes, when we see Asia’s biggest waterfall, Huangguoshu get narrower, when we know some villagers in Yunnan are travelling for three hours to try to find water in valleys, our hearts are filled with sorrow.We Chinese must take action and unite once again. The army has been sent to help fight againest the water shortages. And lots of people raise money to help the people there. Luckily there has been rain these days. Though a day or a week of rainfall is not enough to end the drought, at least there is water coming to the dried-up land, which can help a lot.The severe drought is not a good thing, but through it, we can learn how important the environment is to this world. We should stop polluting the air right away. Besides, we should take measures to protect the forests and plant as many trees as possible.

And with all those cars for every person. And with all those cars on the road, people have to spend plenty of time stuck in the traffic.Now imagine every Sunday, major roads in city areas were closed off to cars, and people were invited to spend time wandering through their neiborhoods by bike. It may sound like impossiblie in such a car-heavy city. But a small group of activists called cicLAvia wants to make this car-free day become reality.“Air pollution is awful and children are too heavy now,” siad cicLAvia member Jonathan Parfrey. “But building new parksfor people to exercise can be much too expensive. We want to create public space that was already have—our roads.”The idea isn’t new. It was born in the Colombian city of Bogota 30 years ago. Bogota is a city with heavy traffic and air pollution. But every Sunday in Bogota major streets are shut down to cars. So cicLAvia wants to follow that success in Los Angeles.Although it may seem like a great challenge in such a city, the members of cicLAvia are confident. They are taking steps to make it happen, including a recent meeting with Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. And a charity group has agreed to provide $20,000 to support this event. And the event may happen in 2010.( )1. What does “so park poor and so car rich” mean?A. It means that there are more parks and fewer cars in Los Angeles.B. It meas that Los Angeles is rich.C.

I”ll try my best to take good care of her,” I said. I even volunteered to say that I would wait for Jenny at the school gate every morning to give her a familiar face.On the next Monday morning, I waited at the school gate to meet Jenny.

2020年人教版新目标英语中考阅读理解、完形填空试题及答案1Do you know some of English expressions about clothes? Let me explain some to you.People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say that people who are nervous have ants in their pants. They might also fly by the seat of their pants. They use their natural sense to do something instead of their learned knowledge. Sometimes, people may get caught with their pants down. They are found doing something they should not be doing. And, in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say she wears the pants in the family.Pants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can burn a hole in your pocket. Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to tighten your bet. You may have to live on less money and spend your money carefully.Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes.

He said that you couldn’t be happy until you gave up your “racket”. My racket was lying. I lied about a lot of things to make myself happy. I always succeeded in lying to others. I felt happy when people told me I was such a convincing liar. However, I felt sad when I heard a girl say that she hated liars that day.On Saturday, many teenagers started to change. One of my new friends returned the toy bear he had stolen the day before to its owner. He told me that he had never felt so relaxedbefore, and he suggested that I try giving up my “racket”.One Friday morning my parents drove me to a three-day self-help seminar for teens called the Landmark Forum. When we arrived, my parents left me there.When I got home from the Landmark Forum, I tried to stop lying and started to take part in ball games and other activities at school. Now I don’t hate life any longer. I love it! I never knew I could be so happy. That seminar actually changed my life.There was once a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to say what something was too quickly. So he sent them each to go and look at a pear tree that was quite far away.The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall. When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to tell him what they had seen.The first son said that the tree was quite ugly. The second son said that it was covered with green flowers. The third son said that it was covered with flowers and looked beautiful. The last son disagreed with all of them. He said that there were many fruits on it.The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but only one season. He told them that they cannot say what a tree or a person was like by only one season. “If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, and the fruits of your fall.”Hold on through the difficult days and better times are sure to come sooner or later.

They will no longer wonder how to wear in the right fashion trend. The parents also save the money from buying the fashionable clothes for their children because they wear uniforms on most weekdays.Last but not least, uniforms help the student to feel more about their school.

At first we made a reservation for a journey to Luxor, Egypt, for the autumn of 1997. The trip was cancelled because of a terrorist attack, which took place in Luzor, so we need to change our plans. We wanted sun, ancient buildings and all for less than $500 a week. We did not have a lot of choices, and so we decided to travel to Tunisia. At last we felt it was not at all a bad decision.When we left for Tunisia we did not have any “deep” understanding of the country, its history or its culture, but once we got there we found it very interesting. We saw ruins from the Roman Empire and the ruined towns. With a little time, these places offer a lot to see. Best of all, most of the place allow visitors to walk around the ruins.

It was a beautiful morning, so he went to the window and looked out. He was surprised to see a neatly dressed, middle-aged professor, who worked in the university just up the road from Mr Jones’s house, coming from the directionof the town. He had grey hair, wore a hat and thick glasses, and was carrying an umbrella, a morning newspaper and a bag. Mr Jones thought that he must have arrived by the night train and decided to walk to the university instead of taking a taxi.Mr Jones had a big tree in his garden, and the children had tied a long rope to one of its branches so that they could swing on it.Mr Jones was surprised to see the professor stop when he saw the rope, and look carefully up and down the road. When he saw that there was nobody, he stepped into the garden, put his umbrella, newspaper, bag and hat neatly on the grass and took hold of the rope. He pulled it hard to see whether it was strong enough to take his weight, then ran as fast as he could and swung into the air on the end of the rope, his grey hair blowing all around his face.At last the professor stopped, straightened his tie, combed his hair carefully, put on his hat, picked up his umbrella, newspaper and bag, and continued on his way to the university, looking as quiet and correct and respectable as one would expect a professor to be( )1.

Let me tell you about it.The word jeans comes from a kind of material that was made in Europe. The material, called jean, was named after sailors from Genoa in Italy, because they wore clothes made from it. In the 18th century jean cloth was made completely from cotton and workers at that time loved wearing itbecause the material was very strong and it did not wear out easily. In the 1960s, many university and college students wore jeans. Designers made different styles of jeans to make the 1960s’ fashion: embroidered jeans, painted jeans and so on. In the 1970s more and more people started wearing jeans because they became cheaper. In the 1980s jeans finally became high fashion clothing, when famous designers started making their own styles of jeans, with their own labels on them. Sales of jeans went up and up. But in the 1990s the worldwide economic situation got worse, and the sale of jeans stopped growing.

For example, there are about 350 kinds of sharks that live in oceans around the world. All of the sharks are carnivores, but most of them don’t eat people. Some sharks are very small—the smallest shark is about 6 inches long—about as long as your hand. But some sharks are very large. The largest kinds of sharks may be 60 feet long and weigh 15 tons.Unlike many other kinds of fish, sharks do not have bone. Their bodies are made of a kind of white flexible material. Sharks do not have ears. However, they “hear” sound and move ments in the water. Any sound or movement makes the water vibrate. Sharks feel these vibrations and they help the sharks find food, too. Most sharks see best in low light. They often hunt for food in the evening, or in the middle of the night.Nowadays, scientists want to learn more about sharks for several reasons. For example, cancer is common in many animals, including people. However, it is rare in sharks. Scientists want to find why sharks almost never get cancer. Maybe this information can help people prevent cancer too. ( )1. A. ponds B. cities C. lakes D. oceans( )2. A. and B. so C. but D. or( )3. A. tall B. long C. far D. wide( )4.

Then she came up to me and said. “Dad, I want to have my head shaved!”“Shelly, why don’t you ask for something else?

But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). “Now our class is quieter,” said Wu. “What’s more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It’s a better way to study.”Li Yu liked it, too. He said, “Group members first discuss, and then show ourselves in front of the whole class. It makes us believe in ourselves.” It was part of a reform (改革) at Li’s school. The school made this reform because they wanted to provide students with easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. “Our school hopes it can improve students’ abilities (能力) to study by themselves and work in groups,” said Zhang Ming, an English teacher.However, the reform has demanded (要求) more from teachers.

One day, the king was walking through the palace hallway and saw the 2 of his ancestors(祖先). He thought that one day his children would also walk in the same hallway and remember all the ancestors 3 these paintings. He wanted his children to remember him, too. 4 he invited many famous artists to his palace.All of the artists began to 5 the king's physical disabilities(生理缺陷). How could his painting be made very beautiful? It was not 6 . They weren't sure what his painting would be like. So one by one, they all started to politely refuse to make a painting of the king.But suddenly one artist raised his hand and said he would make a very nice painting of the king. The king became happy hearing that. Then the artist started painting. After a long time, the painting was 7 .When the artist showed the painting, everyone was 8 . In the painting, the king was sitting on a horse, on the one-leg side, holding his bow(弓箭) and aiming(瞄准) something with his one eye closed. The king was very happy and gave him lots of money.As we all know, no one is 9 . So we should try to focus on others' advantages 10 their disadvantages.

They were asked to get a good night's sleep for two nights.A week later, they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row. The researchers took make-up free(素颜) photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep.Next, they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge(评价) them on attractiveness, health, and sleepiness, as well as asking them,“How much would you like to make friend s with this person in the picture?”The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low.The strangers also said they wouldn't want to socialize with the tired students. The researchers say this is natural for people. An unhealthy-looking face makes people run away. In other words, people don't want to hang around with people who might be ill.Dr.Brewer, an expert at the University of Liver-pool said, “Judgement of attractiveness is often un-conscious(无意识的), but we all do it, and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy. This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us.”11.When did the researchers take make-up free photos? ( )A.After two nights' good sleep.B.After two nights' bad sleep.C.Before the experiment.D.After both two nights' good sleep and two nights' bad sleep.12.The researchers asked the strangers to do the following except .

( )A.Beauty Sleep, More AttractiveB.More Sleep, More FriendsC.Less Sleep, Fewer FriendsD.No Attractiveness, No FriendsPassage 2What do you want most after playing football or a great deal of physical exercise on a hot afternoon? A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful of what you are drinking. Something that looks cool m ay not be good for our health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.15.The reasons why many people like drinking energy drinks are the following EXCEPT that .( )A.they have beautiful colors and cool namesB.they are said to be helpful to healthC.they can keep them awake and better at sportsD.they have lots of caffeine16.The main reason for people not to drink too much energy drinks is that they may cause .( )A.heart problemsB.nervousnessC.sleeping difficultyD.possible health dangers17.Which of the following can take the place of the underlined word “discouraged”?( )A.encouragedB.stoppedC.helpedD.disliked18.From the passage we can know that .( )A.advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinksB.energy drinks are helpful to teenagers' studyC.sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinksD.energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers19.The best title of the passage is . ( )A.Energy Drinks Are UsefulB.Energy Drinks Help TeenagersC.Energy Drinks—Be carefulD.Energy Drinks—Good for HealthⅢ.回答问题In a tree in a forest, there lived a lot of birds.Before the rainy season, the birds tried their best to do things to make their home safe.Some of the birds collected branches and leaves while other birds built their nests. They also stored some food for their children. They kept themselves busy preparing for the difficult times.Soon the rains came. It was followed by thunder and lightning. But the birds were not afraid of them because they made full preparation. One day, a monkey that got wet in the rain came into the forest. He sat on a branch, shaking with cold.The poor monkey tried his best to get shelter(庇护), but failed. The leaves were not enough to protect him from the rains.The birds were watching what had happened to the poor monkey. They felt sorry for the monkey bu t there was little that they could do for him. One of them said, “Brother! Our small nests are not big enough to give you shelter.”Another bird said, “All of us prepared for the rainy season. If you had prepared for it, you would not be in this bad situat ion.”“How dare you tell me what to do?” said the monkey. He angrily tore up the bird's nest and threw it on the ground.The poor bird thought, “Fools never value good advice. It is better not to give them advice.” Then the bird flew, leaving the monkey alone in the cold rain. No one knew what would happen to the monkey.20.What did the birds try their best to do before the rainy season?(不超过 15 个词)21.Why weren't the birds afraid of the rains?(不超过 10 个词)22.What can we learn from the whole story?(不超过 15 个词)【参考答案】Ⅰ.1—5 CBADA 6—10 BCDCAⅡ.Passage 1 [主旨大意]本文是一篇说明文,研究表明“美容觉”是真的:据研究人员表示,睡眠不足的人在他人面前会显得魅力不足。

Since late January, China has put off (1) the new school semester and encouraged students to study at home over safety concerns.The Ministry of Education issued(发布)a guideline for universities to organize online classes, with 22 online platforms (2) 24,000 courses to students.

To stay on track with your online course, always (7) what you hope to complete by the end of it.Make a goal. Predict how much time each task will (8) to complete. Keep detailed notes and review them often. A study plan is important to online learning.First, you need to plan ahead with a good calendar system. Online learning needs (9) . Create a study calendar (10) will help you remember all the important dates like online exams or deadlines for your tasks. A to-do list is useful to prioritize(优先处理)your study plan and to stay on track with your studying.When you feel yourself (11)concentration, consider taking a short break or stopping for the night. It is better to wait until you are able to start afresh (12) waste your time trying to focus.Taking online courses can be very convenient for many people. However, online learning (13) time management skills, self-discipline, willpower and motivation, as it may be challenging for online learners to successfully complete their online courses.(14) American author John C.

As a foreign teacher here, I'm wondering how it (2) and what are the results. You can spend more money without being effective.One of my biggest questions is: Why do children in the USA stay in school 2-3 hours less each day, have very (3) homework, no weekend classes and still do well in education in comparison to most Chinese students?Now, in my opinion, Chinese students are smart,very intelligent, I know. I teach them. They know how to study hard and for long hours. They know how to stand long classes. Children in the USA wouldn't sit (4) a class of over an hour. 40-50 minutes for most classes at most in the USA.When Chinese students attend university in the USA, their success rate is nearly 100%. Very, very rare does a Chinese child fail in the USA. Why? The answer is the same—they know how to study hard.So, (5) to Chinese children, American children get far less classroom instruction and far less homework at night. Yet there are over 200,000 Chinese college students (6) schools in the U.S. and that number is growing by 25% annually. In 3 years, there will likely be over 400,000 Chinese students studying in the USA.Now, I can reason and reconcile (7) Chinese students want to attend college in the USA. But in my year and a half here, I've met parents (8) children are in middle school and the parents want to send them to the USA. It seems to me that in China, long hours, extra hours and extra days of classes is realized as better education. Schools I've taught at here, (9) adding classes and oftentimes, longer classes. In the West, parents, teachers and students would never permit this. They wouldn't think of sending their children to school on Saturday or Sunday. However, in China, it is very common.I honestly and sincerely don't know the answers to these questions. If Western education is THAT much better, then, shouldn't Western styles of teaching (10) in China?

After she began school in August 2016, White started a channel on the video-sharing website YouTube. It records her daily life on campus. Now she has more than 270,000 subscribers to her channel.In her videos, the 22-year-old gets up at 6:30 am and goes to bed at 10:30 pm every day. In (2) , she balances studying, cooking, house cleaning and exercising. Sometimes she finds time to meet up with friends and speak to her family online.A similar case (3) college students in China. Months ago, the official Tsinghua University microblog account showed pictures of students’ plans, study notes and daily schedules. In one of them, an undergraduate tightly arranges his daily life. He usually goes to bed at 1:00 am and gets up at 6:00 am. Although he only takes 10 classes a week, the rest of his day will be fully booked. He starts his day bypre-reading his textbooks at 6:40 am, and (4) a summary of his studies. When he feels like it is hard to stick to his schedule, he writes encouragements to himself, like, “You’re the best”, and “Go for it”.Both students’ hard work(5) certainly paid off. White was at the top of her 152 other classmates; and the Chinese undergraduate won (6) scholarship four years in a row. The two have something in common. They have regular schedules and get up early to study. They squeeze as (7) into the schedule as they can. More (8) , they learn a way of managing time well and efficiently.Some may wonder how they can (9) exhaustion, stress and burnout. White’s video Time Management & Organization Tips All Students Should Know may provide an answer. She advises to write our tasks in a set order on a to-do list. We should also know how to avoid and release stress because, “Mental health is as important as our physic al health.” To White, dancing is something she takes as a reward after completing everything on the list.

The problem he has is how to (1) an artist once he grows up.”This is both encouraging and discouraging: The fact that we were all born to be artists is certainly exciting, and yet the reality has proven that remaining one is a task that many of us have failed. (2) , some people have seen the problem and want to solve it.Western educators have suggested that we (3) the thought of “STEAM” instead of “STEM” –traditional “core majors” including science, technology, engineering, and math –since the “A”,(4) stands for “arts”, is just as important. And on April 11, China’s Ministry of Education issued a guideline. Colleges and universities are required to provide more art-related courses and students need to earn a certain number of art credits in order to graduate.These efforts came after many scientific studies (5) that art education helps students (6) self-confidence and teamwork skills, as well as habits of mind such as problem solving and critical thinking, according to The Washington Post. It’s true that (7) of these skills target specific jobs. But as former US ballet dancer Damian Woetzel told The Atlantic, the purpos e of art is “to give kids the tools to become adults (8) creative, adaptable, and expressive – capable of having their eyes and ears and senses (9) ”.And we can now see how we lost track of our born “artist self” on our way to growing up: We (10) to keep our capabilities to see, hear and feel, and became blind, deaf and insensitive adults.

He began to think and tried to find out why the apple fell. Then he discovered how the sun, moon, and stars are kept in their places.A boy named James Watt sat quietly by the fire, watching the lid of the kettle move upand down. He wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the lid. From that time he went on thinking and thinking. And when he became a man, he improved the steam engine(蒸汽机)so much that it could easily do the work of many horses.James Ferguson was a poor boy. Once, seeing the inside of a watch, he wondered. “Why should I not make a watch?” But how could he get the materials to make the mainspring(钟表的主发条)?He soon found he could make it with whalebone(鲸骨). He then made a wooden clockwhich kept good time. His motto(座右铭)was “I will think of it.” And he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world.Boys and girls, when you have a difficult lesson to learn, don’t lose heart, and don’t ask someone for help before helping yourselves.

The article was about kids who helped out their communities, and she thought it would be really cool to help her own town, Harvard.The only problem was that she wasn’t sure how to help. In the article, the kids had grown food for people who needed food, but it was winter. She couldn’t start a garden.

How cold they must be! That gave her an idea! She could collect winter coats, hats and gloves for people who needed them.She shared her idea with her mom, who thought it was great. But how would they spread the idea to get plenty of winter clothing? Amaya decided to talk to her teacher, because then she could share her idea with her classmates at least.Ms. Monroe agreed when Amaya talked about her idea. They decided to call the project Hats in Harvard. Then they wrote a letter explaining the project. Ms. Monroe even said she could help Amaya talk to the headmaster about it so they could get the whole school to join in it. They met with the headmaster during lunch time. He was excited about the idea, and said he would make sure copies(复印件) of the letter went home with all the students.They collected enough winter clothing in only one week. Then they left the clothes around two parks, so families who needed clothes could get them there. Three days later, Amaya and her mom went shopping again.

2020年人教版新目标英语中考阅读理解、完形填空试题及答案Betty Jameson was an important woman in the world of sports. In 1950, she and twelve other women set up the Ladies Professional Golf Association. They made rules of the group.Jameson was born in 1919 in Norman. Oklahoma. She grew up In Dallas, Texas. She began playing golf at a very young age. She was very good at the sport and won many competitions. In 1932, Jameson won the Texas competition. Two years later, she won the Southern Championship.Jameson began playing professional golf in 1945. She won many prizes. She finished her career in the Ladies Professional Golf Association with thirteen big victories.That may not seem like many wins compared to women’s golf today.

The organization succeeded in making women’s golf famous as a professional sport.Jameson was accepted into the Hall Fame of Women’s Golf in 1951. But in her late years, she was forced to live a simple life because of little money. Jameson died in 2009 when she was"If mom finds out that I'm going to the beach, I'll be in big trouble."

I saw the ball was only a few feet from me, but I couldn’t get it. I had no more energy. “I should obey Mom,” I thought. Just then, I saw two young men having a boat race. I cried for help, but they didn’t hear me. I started to faint and later I didn’t know what happened.When I woke up, I was in bed in the hospital.

The head teacher Brian Walker at the West Park School in Derby runs two-hour detention sessions after school on Fridays. He forces his students to listen to Mozart and other classical music. He also makes them copy his favorite poems and they have to watch educational videos. Mr. Walker says his main aim is to stop noisy pupils having a bad effect on lessons for other students who want to study.Brian Walker believes the detention reminds students that education is something to value. He thinks students actually learn from being kept behind after school: "Hopefully, I open their ears to an experience they don't normally have and…don't want to have again, so it's both educational and acts as a deterrent." Music has had success elsewhere in reducing bad behaviour. In 2004, it reduced crime on London’s subway by 25 per cent. Researchers from a Belfast university found it helped stop misbehaving. However, one West Park student called Kieran said: “An hour of Mr. Walker's music is a real killer.”1. Mozart was a bad student at school and was punished a lot. T / F2. A teacher forced students to write poetry and listen to classical music. T / F3. Music on London’s subway system cut crime by a quarter in 2004.

This was my first time to go abroad, so it really made me excited.There were quite a lot of interesting places in England such as Oxford. When we walked around this city, we saw quite a lot of ancient buildings on the two sides of the streets. One of the most famous tourist sights in Oxford is Christ Church. It is one of Oxford University’s 39 colleges.Another place I visited was a place called Stratford-upon-Avon. It was a small town. Maybe you haven’t heard about it, but I’m sure you have heard about William Shakespeare. William Shakespere was born there and he spent his early years there. It was a very old and traditional house. Its sitting room, hallway(走廊), bedrooms, and kitchen were in 16th-century style. I also went to see the Shakespeare Exhibition. It told us Shakespeare’s life in both Stratford and London in picture s. It included a first edition of Shakespeare’s collected plays and a model of London’s Globe Theatre.I really enjoyed this nice trip to England. From this trip I learnt a lot.

The largest is called the Great Pyramid. It was built by apharaoh Khufu as his tomb. The ancient Egyptians believed that they would have another life after death. To prepare for this life after death, their bodies had to be specially treated. Their organs were taken away and their bodies were dried. These treated bodies are known as mummies.The Great Pyramid took about twenty years to build. It was completed around 2,480 BC. When it was finished, the pyramid was 145.75 metres high. Now, it is about ten metres shorter.As its bottom, the pyramid has four sides. They are 229 metres long each. The structure is made of large blocks of stone—2,300,000 of them! Each of these blocks weighs over 2,000 kilograms. During construction, the workers did not have any special tools to do the work.

There are three main types of educational institutions: primary school, secondary school and universities.State schools are free, and attendance is compulsory. More school begains at nine o’clock and lasts until five past four. School opens five days a week.On Saturday and Sundays, there are no lessons. There are holidays at Christmas. Easter and in summer. In London as in all cities there are two grades of states schools for those who will go to work at fifteen: primary schools for boys and girls between the ages of five and eleven, and secondary schools for children from eleven to fifteen.The lessons are reading, writing, the English language, English literature, English history, geography, science, nature study, drawing, painting, singing, woodwork and physical training..Many people now think that teachers give students too much homework. They say that it is unnecessary for children to work at home in their free time. Moreover, they argue that most teachers do not properly plan the homework tasks they give to students. The result is that students have to repeat asks which they have already done at school.Most people agree that homework is unfair. A student who can do his homework in a quiet and comfortable room is in a much better position than a student who does his homework in a small, noisy room with the television on. Some parents help their children with their homework.A teacher should suggest suitable tasks for parents to do with their children. Parents are often better at teaching their own children.Officials from Museums of 16 countries held a meeting in Cairo in April, 2010. They tried to get back their treasures in history.

Then everybody walked outside toward the barbecues grill.One of the players from the other team was standing near the picnic table. He said to Dave, “Hi, I’m Miguel,”“Hi,” Dave replied, looking down at the ground.“You guys played great,” Miguel said. “I didn’t think we were going to win.”Dave was surprised. Miguel was not bragging at all. “Thanks for the compliment,” Dave said to Miguel. “You guys played great, too.”Dave felt happy. He was grateful the Miguel had not bragged about his team’s victory.

But she was moving from a house with a little garden so her son would have space to play. The distance was probably too short to call a removal company(搬家公司), but it was long enough to make carrying all the stuff a real pain.But we didn't have to. A neighbor offered the use of her truck. She drove it up to my daughter's front door, and then went home while we loaded it up. Then she came out, drove it to the new house and walked back home for a cup of tea while we unloaded. Then she did it again and again.We decided to thank her, but she didn’t want anything from us. My daughter got her some flowers later as a “thank you”.Before I left, I stopped by the woman's house, just to thank her for being such a help to my daughter, as she really didn’t have to help. It's not like they were such close friends or anything “It’s what neighbors should do,” she said.“It’s what neighbors used to do,” I said.“Well, let’s bring it back then,” she smiled. I thought she was right. Neighbors often helped each other in the past, but now we don’t do that so often as we did before.“Let’s bring it back,” I said sincerely in my heart.It’s good to have neighbors like her.( )1.

Perhaps your child loves art, and you want to encourage that interest, but you just don’t know where to begin. Maybe you’re ready to start drawing, too. Then this website is for you.At Art Made Easy, I’ll take through what you need to know to help your children create their own works of art.I’ll also tell you what you need to buy to get them started, and provide you with prices soyou’ll know what to expect before you go to the store. You’ll find free lessons to try with them, and along the way, I’ll explain all kinds of art terms to you.How old should a child be before starting art? As a Mom and an art teacher, I’ve found that any age is a great age to begin creating. My son was drawing little circle when he was just one old, and my grandma didn’t begin her painting career until she was in her seventies! The complexity of the art work will change according to the age of the artist, of course, but a face composed of a circle and two big eyes by a child can be as much of an achievement as a fine oil painting by an adult.Drawing may not come naturally, but it’s a skill that can be learned. The tips and lessons on this site are meant to be studied and tried together with your child! Remember, as with anything new that you learn to do, you improve with practice.

Like the planets, they go around the sun.But comets are not made of solid rock like planets. A comet is a ball of dust, stones, and ice. Many people call comets dirty snowballs.The “snowball” may be only a few miles across. But when the sun heats the “snowball,” much of it is changed to gases. The gases expand and form the comet’s head, which may be thousands of miles across.A comet moves fast in its trip around the sun. But when we see it, the comet does not seem to move. That’s because it is so far away. The moon moves fast, but when you look at it, you can’t see any motion. That’s because the moon is far away.So comets do not streak across the sky. You cannot see any motion. But if you look night after night, you can see that a comet changes position among the stars. If you watch the moon night after night, you’ll see that it also changes position.Each year astronomers discover new comets. Some of them are seen only once. They make one trip around the sun and then go way out into space. The sun’s gravity cannot hold them.Other comets, like Halley, keep returning. They have been captured by the sun. Halley’s earliest visit was probably 3,000 years ago. It may keep returning for another 3,000 years.But every time a comet goes around the sun, the comet loses part of itself. Gases and dust are pulled out of the comet. That’s why Halley is now dimmer than it used to be. Next time it visits us, in 2062, it may be even dimmer. Each visit it may get dimmer and dimmer, until it finally disappears.( )1. What is this passage mostly about?A. Comets and the sun.B. Why comets are like snowballs.C. Who discovered the first comet.D. Facts about comets.( )2. According to the passage, what does a comet travel around?A. The sun.B. The moon.C. Other comets.D. other planets( )3. Why do comets look as if they are motionless when we see them?A. They are very small.B. They are very far away.C. They move very slowly.D. They move only at night.( )4. How does the author help the reader understand what a comet looks like?A. By telling about a famous one.B. By explaining how far away it is.C. By describing how fast it moves.D. By describing it as a dirty snowball.( )5. What is the most likely reason the author wrote this passage?A. To give information about comets.B. To tell readers about famous comets.C. To explain the importance of comets.D. To convince readers to look for comets.Long ago all of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was just a light in the s1 . And others thought it was a big ball of cheese! Then telescope was made. And men s 2 that the moon was really another world. They wondered what it was like. They dreamed of going there.On July 20th, 1969, that dream came t 3 . Two American men landed on the moon. T 4 names were Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. The first thing the men found was that the moon is covered with dust. The dust is so thick t 5 the men left footprints where they walked. Those were the fist mark a living thing had ever made on the moon.The two men walked on the moon f 6 hours. They picked rocks to bring back to e 7 for study. They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know. Then they climb b 8 into their moon landing craft. Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon. They joined Michael Collins in the spaceship that w 9 for them above the moon. Then they were off on their long trip back to earth. B 10 them they left the plains and tall mountains of the moon. They left the machines they had set up. And they left footprints that may last forever.1. sky2. saw3. true4. their5. that6. for7. earth8. back9. waited 10.BehindRead Allen's diary and answer the questions( )1. What does “PTA Day” mean?A.

Perhaps your child loves art, and you want to encourage that interest, but you just don’t know where to begin. Maybe you’re ready to start drawing, too. Then this website is for you.At Art Made Easy, I’ll take through what you need to know to help your children create theirown works of art.I’ll also tell you what you need to buy to get them started, and provide you with prices so you’ll know what to expect before you go to the store. You’ll find free lessons to try with them, and along the way, I’ll explain all kinds of art terms to you.How old should a child be before starting art? As a Mom and an art teacher, I’ve found that any age is a great age to begin creating. My son was drawing little circle when he was just one old, and my grandma didn’t begin her painting career until she was in her seventies! The complexity of the art work will change according to the age of the artist, of course, but a face composed of a circle and two big eyes by a child can be as much of an achievement as a fine oil painting by an adult.Drawing may not come naturally, but it’s a skill that can be learned. The tips and lessons on this site are meant to be studied and tried together with your child! Remember, as with anything new that you learn to do, you improve with practice. So get busy creating art and have fun! ( )1. A. physics B. maths C. art D. P. E.( )2. A. interest B. skill C. diet D. habit( )3. A. finish B. start C. continue D. stop( )4.

Like the planets, they go around the sun.But comets are not made of solid rock like planets. A comet is a ball of dust, stones, and ice. Many people call comets dirty snowballs.The “snowball” may be only a few miles across. But when the sun heats the “snowball,” much of it is changed to gases. The gases expand and form the comet’s head, which may be thousands of miles across.A comet moves fast in its trip around the sun. But when we see it, the comet does not seem to move. That’s because it is so far away. The moon moves fast, but when you look at it, you can’t see any motion. That’s because the moon is far away.So comets do not streak across the sky. You cannot see any motion. But if you look night after night, you can see that a comet changes position among the stars. If you watch the moon night after n ight, you’ll see that it also changes position.Each year astronomers discover new comets. Some of them are seen only once. They make one trip around the sun and then go way out into space. The sun’s gravity cannot hold them.Other comets, like Halley, keep returning. They have been captured by the sun. Halley’s earliest visit was probably 3,000 years ago. It may keep returning for another 3,000 years.But every time a comet goes around the sun, the comet loses part of itself. Gases and dust are pulled out of the comet. That’s why Halley is now dimmer than it used to be. Next time it visits us, in 2062, it may be even dimmer. Each visit it may get dimmer and dimmer, until it finally disappears.( )1. What is this passage mostly about?A. Comets and the sun.B. Why comets are like snowballs.C. Who discovered the first comet.D. Facts about comets.( )2. According to the passage, what does a comet travel around?A. The sun.B. The moon.C. Other comets.D. other planets( )3. Why do comets look as if they are motionless when we see them?A. They are very small.B. They are very far away.C. They move very slowly.D. They move only at night.( )4. How does the author help the reader understand what a comet looks like?A. By telling about a famous one.B. By explaining how far away it is.C. By describing how fast it moves.D. By describing it as a dirty snowball.( )5. What is the most likely reason the author wrote this passage?A. To give information about comets.B. To tell readers about famous comets.C. To explain the importance of comets.D. To convince readers to look for comets.Long ago all of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was just a light in the s1 . And others thought it was a big ball of cheese! Then telescope was made. And men s 2 that the moon was really another world. They wondered what it was like. They dreamed of going there.On July 20th, 1969, that dream came t 3 . Two American men landed on the moon. T 4 names were Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. The first thing the men found was that the moon is covered with dust. The dust is so thick t 5 the men left footprints where they walked. Those were the fist mark a living thing had ever made on the moon.The two men walked on the moon f 6 hours. They picked rocks to bring back to e 7 for study. They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know. Then they climb b 8 into their moon landing craft. Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon.

If you want to learn more about a sport, you might ask your mum or dad about camps or programs that introduce kids to know how to play.Gym classes at school also can be a way to try new sports with lots of kids. Another way to learn about a sport is to watch education videos or DVDs, or check out library books. They can all explain the rules and offer suggestions to kids when they are learning to play new sports.If you have an older friend or family member who is good at a sport, you might ask him or her to help you practice.( )1.

In the past, we often got together at our home every Sunday. My grandparents, parents, aunt, uncle and my cousin, Jane, would have a wonderful time playing games, swimming, relaxing and sharing stories.On one sunny summer Sunday when I was 5, my cousin Jane thought it would be funny to push me into the swimming pool we had in the backyard. I couldn’t believe Jane had done this to me, so I decided to put a big pout on my lips until I found some sympathy. Wet and unhappy, I sat next to my grandpa on a nearby picnic bench. When he asked me what was wrong, I told him what Jane had done.“Well, just push her back!” he said.After hearing my grandpa’s suggestion, I watched Jane’s every move until she was in jus t the right position beside the pool. I then pushed her into the pool. She was good at swimming and didn’t get hurt.Soon after that year, Grandpa moved from Ohio to Florida, so I didn’t get to see him much before he died when I was 11. I will never forget the valuable lesson my grandpa taught me during the short time we had together. When someone or something is pushing you in the wrong way, push back!( )1.

I asked John why the pig had them. He said, “One day, while I was checking the tire of my tractor, the tractor suddenly started to move slowly and then I was trapped under the wheel. Just then Pinky, the pig, saw it. It ran back to the house, fastened its teeth on my wife’s dress and pulled her out. Then my wife helped me get out of the wheel.”“That’s amazing, but that still can’t explain why Pinky has the artificial legs,” I said.“Well, let me tell you another accident. Once my son hit his head on a stone while swimming in a lake. Pinky jumped into the water, swam to him and pulled him up onto the blank,”John said.“Most pigs can’t swim, but Pinky can!” I said with surprise. “Pinky is actually a special pig, but I really want to know why it has three artificial legs,” I said.“Well,” said John, “Pinky is so good that we can’t eat it up at one time,( )1.

That’s why it’s important to follow these safety rules all the time.1The adult who’s taking care of you needs to know where you are at all times. That means telling your mom or dad, grandmother, or whoever is keeping an eye on you where you are and when you’ll come home.2It’s more fun and safer to do things with friends. Take along a friend when you walk to school, bike around the park, or go to the store. Travelling with a friend whenever you can is agood idea, and travelling with several kids is even better.3What are safe spots? Safe spots are places where you can stop if you need help, like the house of kids you know, your parents’friends’houses, stores, restaurants, police stations, libraries, and fire departments. When you’re walking or riding your bike, remember the safe sports along your route. You’ll know where they are when you need help.4Be sure to keep away from places where no one is around, like the small, dark streets.5It’s nice to help people. But remember: Strangers should ask adults, not kids for help. If a stranger asks you for help—such as giving directions, finding lost money—don’t help. Don’t even give an answer. You should walk the other way at once. If you’re not near a safe spot, try any store or restaurant. If you feel you’re in danger, call for help.A lot of people like to play their records as loudly as possible at home. The result is that the other members of the family and the neighbors often complain since they don't like the music. One answer to this problem is to wear headphones, but headphones are usually uncomfortable.An armchair has just been made by a British engineer, Stepen Court. It has a record-player system. The armchair looks like an ordinary armchair with a high back. However, each of the two sides of the chair has three loudspeakers inside to make middle and high sounds. Low sounds are made by a pair of loudspeakers in a hollow space under the seat. Anyone who sits in the chair hears sounds coming from all round his / her head. Because we cannot tell where low sounds come, it doesn't matter that they come from underneath or behind. It is the higher sounds coming from the side of the chair that create a stereo effect. These sounds travel only a few inches to reach the listener's ears. Consequently, it takes only a little power to make the music sound very loud. Only a small amount of sound leaks out from behind the chair into the room to disturb others. Most of the sound is absorbed by the listener.( )1. A. class B. family C. group D. team( )2.

Others are machines or something to make our lives more comfortable.The ideas of these inventions may come from everyday life. Take the popular game, Monopoly, for example. In 1930, the American economy fell down. Millions of people lost their work. Among them was Charles Darrow. They had no money to go on vacation. Darrow said to his wife, "If I were rich, I'd take you to the best hotel in Atlantic City and I would buy the hotels, all the houses and streets and the railroad for you." Then an idea grew in his mind. He cut houses and hotels into wood. He made cards with names of places on them. He used buttons for tokens, a pair of dice and lots of play money. The game was called Monopoly.Another example was the cat’s-eye reflector. Percy Shaw got his idea while driving along the side of a hill. That day, he ran into thick fog(雾). He couldn't see the road clearly. At that very moment, the car lights had been reflected in the eyes of a cat and he could see where the side of the road was. He began to think of inventing reflectors that shone like cats' eyes and setting them in the middle of the road. His invention has contributed a lot to traffic safety.( )1.

The idea was especially interesting to two French brothers, Jacques and Joseph Montgolfier. In the late 1700s, they made experimenting with hot-air balloons.Their first experiment was to fill small paper bags with smoke. They found that the bags would rise in the air. At first, the two brothers believed that the smoke made the bags rise. But later, they realized it was the hot air, rather the smoke that caused the bags to rise.The Montgolfier brothers continued to experiment. In 1783, they put a hot-air balloon in the air for eight minutes. The balloon carried a cock, a sheep, and a duck! They came back to earth safely after history’s first real balloon f light. Later that year, they made a bigger balloon and the two people rose over 300 feet into the air. Their flight lasted 25 minutes.By 1784, ballooning had become very popular in France. People traveled for miles to see balloons take off and come down again. One year later, two men flew from France across the English Channel to England. It took two hours.Today, hot-air balloons are very popular. To fly a balloon, the pilot burns wood or gas to make hot air, which makes the balloon rise. The balloon rises into the air as more hot air is produced. To lower the balloon, hot air is released.( )1. Jacques and Joseph Montgolfier made experimenting with hot-air balloons in___.A. the seventeenth centuryB. the eighteenth centuryC. the seventh centuryD. the eighth century( )2.

What does the underlined word “released” mean?A. 产生B. 增加C. 吸收D. 释放( )5. This passage mainly tells us ____A. how balloons were inventedB. how balloons carried animalsC. when balloons flew across English channelD. when balloons carried peopleFor most of us, the holidays are a great time to gather family, but your holiday experiences can be quickly forgotten with time because of the limitations of memory. You might therefore want to think of ways of recording those experiences. One very useful way of recording those experiences is by keeping a holiday journal.An important advantage of keeping a holiday journal is that it allows you to record changes that have happened to you and your family members. As you go through your journal, you’ll see how everybody has grown, the directions they have taken in life, friends who might have joined your family on the holidays and so on. These changes can be recorded by photographs as well.However, writing about your holiday experiences allows you to record several details about them which a photograph can not. This does not mean that photographs are not important. The best, of course, is for your journal to include both photographs and writing in order for it to be rich in detail.Another important benefit of a holiday journal is that it can give you an opportunity to appreciate your family members. Perhaps, you have made the mistake that most of us do, namely forgetting how important family members are and taking them for granted. As you you’re your holiday journal, however, you might feel like you want to reconnect with your loved ones and re-establish your relationship with them.( )1. What can be quickly forgotten with time?A. Training one’s memory to be good.B. The holiday journal you are making.C. The holiday experiences you have had.D. Having celebrations on holidays.( )2. How can one record one’s holiday experiences?A. By keeping a diary of them.B. By writing to an academic journal.C. By thinking carefully about them.D. By regularly discussing them.( )3. Why do family members become less close to each other? Because they __________.A. don’t write to or call each other oftenB. immigrate to different countriesC. forget to be thankful for each otherD. have poorly managed schedules( )4. Which advantage of a holiday journal is NOT mentioned by the author?A. It helps us to understand better how we’ve developed over time.B. It gives us a chance to be grateful to our family members.C. It helps us to relive our experiences in a more detailed way.D. It can become a family treasure for the next generation to read.( )5. What is most likely the tone of the writer?A.

The rain was drumming on the car roof as George and Marie Winstons drove through the empty country roads. They were going to their friend’s house, where they were going to attend a party. As they drove, they listened to the local radio station, whichwas playing classic music.They were about five miles from the Harrison s’ house when the music stopped. Then they heard a news announcement:“There’s a murder called John. He has just escaped from the police station. He is a big and strong man and he is extremely dangerous. People in this area must keep their doors and windows locked. If you see someone who acts strangely, call the police at once.Marie was so frightened. “A crazy killer,” she said. “He’s out there somewhere. That’s scary.”“But we have something more serious to worry about,” George said. “Something is wrong with our car. It might lose power and stop.”As he spoke, the car slowed down and stopped.“Bad luck!” George shouted angrily. “We’ll have to walk in the rain.”“But I have my new dress on,” Marie said. “The rain will make it dirty.”“Which is important, your dress or your life?” asked George. “It’s a dangerous place here. We can get a new dress again, but we have only one life.”At last, they walked in the rain to the Harrison’. Maybe that’s their best way in that case.”( )1. Where were the Winstons going?A. Home.B.

There are some tips for you.1If you’re trying to buy gifts for a large family, one of the easiest ways to reduce the cost of holiday shopping is to start a gift exchange. Each member of the family draws a name for a gift and buys it for that person only.2 .Instead of buying a new bottle of Old Spice or Uncle Greg this year, try suggesting the whole family get together for a special event or a nice meal and give up the gifts.3.Instead of buying gifts for each other, get together with your family and agree to do a public service project together for the holidays. Donate time at the local homeless shelter or soup kitchen, volunteer at your local animal shelter, or agree to do yard work and clean the house for an elderly couple in your neighborhoold.4。

2020年人教版新目标英语中考阅读理解、完形填空试题及答案6A coin collection usually starts from unexpected beginnings. For example, you may have coins in your purse from a trip to another country or you may find old coins in an old shop. You can have your collections about the country, year or subject. If your friends travel to many other countries, you would find it easy to collect coins of different countries. You may also choose a foreign country that interest you, like France or India, and collect coins of that country. You’d better collect your own nation’s coins if you want to know more about collections!Some coin collectors collect faulty coins such as coins with over dates, off-center coins and so on. But there are few faulty coins. This makes them even more interesting. You can also collect by material, gold or silver.You can pick up interesting coins during the international travel, and you can also get them at local shops, markets and coin shows.It’s great to collect coins, but where are you going to store them?

Airports and airplanes let people travel to different countries easily, so there are more foreigners here than there used to be. Also, there are fewer farms than there used to be because now farmers can grow more food by using machines. But the biggest change has probably been how people live their lives at home. In the past, people had to wash their clothes by hand, which usually took about 1 or 2 hours from start to finish. Now, washing machines can do the same work in less than 40 minutes! Cooking and cleaning the house used to take many hours every day, too. Modern people have much more free time than people used to have. But his is not always a good thing. Many people get bored more easily than people in the past did. When they have free time, they just surf the Internet or listen to the radio.

People who want to act in plays come from all over the world hoping to get a job as an actor. They want to become rich and famous on Broadway.But one group of actors in a new Broadway play is happy to perform for just a snack. These actors are dogs. They perform in a musical show called Chitty Bang Bang. The dogs do a great job in the play, thanks to their trainer William Berioni.Berioni did not plan to become an animal trainer. In college he studied acting and learned how to put on plays. But Berioni was also interested in animals. He often brought homeless animals to his house.Berioni combined his love for plays with his love for animals. He began training a dog to be in a Broadway play. He found just the right dog for the play at an animal shelter. This is a place that takes care of homeless animals. The dog became famous as Sandy in the play Annie. The dog performed onstage for seven years. This is the longest any animal has been in a Broadway play.Berioni hopes the dogs will be in the play for a long time. When the play finally ends, the dogs will stay on a farm with Berioni and his family. The dogs will have plenty to keep them busy. Berioni already has many other animals he takes care of on his farm.Aaron Conley, an 11-year-old boy, is a child actor. He has performed many kinds of roles. He has taken many years of acting, dancing, and singing lessons. If chosen for a part, the children must work hard.In fact, going to school became difficult when Aaron began receiving acting jobs in New York City. Many child actors were studying in private schools that allow them to have flexible time tables. These schools were expensive, so Aaron’s mother let him study in a public school. But the time table there was very difficult to follow since Aaron sometimes needed to leave in the middle of the school day for play practices. Finally his mother decided to teach Aaron at home.Children actors and their families make many sacrifices. One of the biggest sacrifices that Aaron’s family has made was moving from Mississippi to New York City. Aaron needed to live close to his acting jobs. This meant leaving behind family and friends. Also, because of his busy acting time table, Aaron isn’t always able to take part in activities, which makes it difficult to make friends in a new place.Night after night, show after show, Aaron Conley understands the difficulty of his job, but heloves what he does.( )1.

She walked as if each step was painful.After walking around the store for a moment, she stopped in front of the rows of canned vegetables. She picked up one, and looked at the label strangely. I went over to her and asked her if she needed any help.“Are you looking for corn, madam?”“I’m hungry. I need some food,” she answered. “Any kind.”“Well, the corn is ninety-five cents,” I said in my most helpful voice.“I can’t pay,” she said.For a second, I want to say, “Take the corn.” But the employee rules flooded into my mind. I couldn’t do that. “I’m sorry; madam, but I can’t give you anything for free.”The old woman’s face turned red. She put the corn back, and went out sadly.Moments after she left, I rushed out the door with the corn, but I couldn’t see her. For the rest of that day, the image of the poor woman troubled me. I wish with all my heart that I had acted like a human being rather than a robot.81. An old woman. 82. Anything to eat. 83. Ninety-five cents. 84. The employee rules 85.

Others compete. Rock climbing can be dangerous. But there are many ways to keep a climber’s safety. Climbing takes strength, control and good balance. Climbers have to pull themselves straight up. So they have to be strong enough to carry their own weight. And climbers sometimes have to hold on to rocks by only their fingers or toes.There are four kinds of rock climbing. Traditional rock climbing is done outside. Climbers wear ropes as they climb. If a climber slips, a rope can stop him from falling.There is also indoor climbing. Rock walls have places for the climber's hands and feet. Ice climbing is exactly as it sounds. People climb glaciers or frozen waterfalls instead of rocks. They use special equipment for the ice. And then there is bouldering—climbing rocks between three and seven meters high. It is a quick climbing. Many climbers like bouldering because they can use less equipment. Climbers often need only special shoes and chalk. All climbers use chalk to keep their hands dry.Most rocks have holes. Climbers use these for footholds and handholds. Climbers use their legs to climb. Arms and hands are for position and balance. Climbers often need to lock their bodies to the rock with one small finger hold.( )1.
