The sun has great power in the tropics to draw up the water from the sea.Y ou know how the vapourrises into the air.The higher the temperature of the air,the greater the amount of moisture(⽔分)the air can hold.When the air cools,the vapour becomes clouds,or if it is near the earth’s surface,as mist(薄雾).When the air cools gradually(逐渐地),the rain drops are small and the rain is light. However,when the vapour drops suddenly in temperature,the drops are large and the rain is heavy.”“In some tropical countries,where the sun is always at work on large bodies of water,a very large amount of vapour collects in the air,and it may take days,or even weeks,to form rain drops and fall.It may then rain for days continually.When this happens,after two or three days,the water falls does not have the time to soak(浸泡)through the soil or be carried off in the streams;so it gathers on the surface,and then we have a flood.”When Tom got to the river,where the crossing was,he found the water rising rapidly.He thought about what his father had taught him about the floods,and decided to go back home at once and tell him the news.69.What did Tom’s father probably do?A.A geography teacher.C.A farmer.B.A scientist.D.A doctor.70.How long had Tom probably stayed at home?A.Ten days.B.Two days.C.Three days.D.Several weeks.71.The air can hold a lot of moisture when________.A.the air cools down suddenlyB.the air cools down graduallyC.the temperature is highD.the temperature is low72.Which order is RIGHT according to the passage?(1)The water from the sea rises into the air and became vapour.(2)When the air cools down,it begins to rain.(3)The vapour became clouds or mist.(4)Too much water gathers on the surface and becomes flood.A.(1)(2)(3)(4)B.(2)(1)(3)(4)C.(4)(1)(3)(2)D.(1)(3)(2)(4)73.What was the“news”in the last sentence?A.Maybe a terrible flood was coming soon.B.They could start to work on the farm immediately.C.The rain had caused a great loss to their farm.D.He had learned how the flood came into being.74.Tom was a________boy according to the passage.A.hardworkingB.generous/doc/50a21f45091c59eef8c75fbfc77da26925c596e7.html zy D.cleverB.Choose the words or expressions to complete the passage.(12分)Stan Lee,who helped create Spiderman,the X-Men,Iron Man,theIncredible Hulk(绿巨⼈),Black Panther(⿊豹),and many other comic bookheroes,has died.He was95.Stanley Martin Lieber was born in1922.When he was just17,he got a jobat a company that made comic books.As a writer,he started using the name“Stan Lee”(which sounded like his first name,Stanley).He wrote his first Captain America story in1941.It turned out to be popular.Before he turned19,hewas__75__all writing for the company,which became Marvel Comics(漫威漫画公司)in the1960s.At the time,most superheroes were shown as being almost perfect.They were strong and smart and always knew the right thing to do.However,after working with some artists,Mr.Lee came up with some new ideas.He made it okay for comic book heroes to have__76__.The Fantastic Four(神奇四侠)argued among themselves.The Incredible Hulk was a really nice guy until he got angry.

Scientists also think that the drug might l_____84____a child’s ability to grow and an cause troublesleeping.Another problem is that children can take too much of the drug.Some children like the way the drug makest_____85____feel,so they take more than they should.They know this is wrong,but they cannot stop,much the same as people who cannot stop smoking.A third problem is that doctors do not know if the drug is really safe or not.Doctors do not know what happens to children who take this drug for a long time.They do not know if these children show side effects after they grow up.Ritalin might help when children are young but are there bad effects l____86_____in life?Because nobody knows for sure,some scientists say that Ritalin should not be used.Today,some doctors and teachers say that there are better ways than drugs to help children with attention problems.One good idea is to give children better food and make sure they get more rest.Another way to help children with attention problems is to find teachers who have special training with a_____87____children.Such teachers know how to help these children learn.Another idea is for parents and teachers to simply be patient.Most children’s attention will improve naturally as they get older.Parents and teachers just have to give these children time to develop.D.Answer the questions(根据短⽂内容回答下列问题)It happened about one year ago.My mom wanted to visit her sister who lived in America.Since we lived in the Ukraine(乌克兰),my mom had to get agreement from our government to go to America.After she got the agreement to go and all of the paper work was done,she was ready to go.Then came the bad part.She had to be away from my dad,my two sister,and me for about three months.From our city,my mum had to go to New Y ork by plane.My sisters,my dad and I stood and watched the plane leave until we couldn’t see it any more.The next day,we got a call from our mom.She said that her sister met her in New Y ork and from there,they drove to the place where my aunt lived.She also said that it was really nice in America,but she missed her very much.It was really hard to live without my mom,without her help or her advice,but I got over it.After about three months my mom was coming home.My dad my sister went to pick my mom up from the airport.It was very far and my mom had a lot of bags.My younger sister and I waited for them at home.W e waited and waited,and then it was late,but they weren’t back.Then we got a call from our dad.He said that there was a big snowstorm in New Y ork and the plane couldn’t leave until the storm was over,so our mum would be late.When they finally got home,I was really happy.

You will often notice that there are three or four—especially boys who cannot sits s_____81____. They have trouble paying attention to the teacher for longer than a few minutes, and they seem to forget things the teachers tells them. What is the manner with them? Many doctors think they need medicine, so they give the children a drug c_____82____ Ritalin(利他林). It is supposed to help them settle down and pay better attention. It works, but it is also dangerous. Ritalin has some bad side effects, and it can even kill children who take too much. Because of the serious side effects of Ritalin, many people think it is not good for children.Ritalin seems to affect both a child’s mind and body. The drug does help children calm down and focus, but some scientists claim(声称) that Ritalin decreases the flow of blood to the b____83_____. This effects a child’s thinking and memory and makes it more difficult to learn. Scientists also think that the drug might l_____84____ a child’s ability to grow and an cause trouble sleeping. Another problem is that children can take too much of the drug. Some children like the way the drug makes t_____85____ feel, so they take more than they should. They know this is wrong, but they cannot stop, much the same as people who cannot stop smoking. A third problem is that doctors do not know if the drug is really safe or not. Doctors do not know what happens to children who take this drug for a long time. They do not know if these children show side effects after they grow up. Ritalin might help when children are young but are there bad effects l____86_____ in life? Because nobody knows for sure, some scientists say that Ritalin should not be used.Today, some doctors and teachers say that there are better ways than drugs to help children with attention problems. One good idea is to give children better food and make sure they get more rest. Another way to help children with attention problems is to find teachers who have special training with a_____87____ children. Such teachers know how to help these children learn. Another idea is for parents and t eachers to simply be patient. Most children’s attention will improve naturally as they get older. Parents and teachers just have to give these children time to develop.崇明区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷C.
