The songs of the bird filled the hippo with so much envy(羡慕) that he couldn't think of anything else. Every day he would think why he wasn't born to be a bird even though the bird told him many times he was so lucky to be so big and such a good swimmer.Finally, the hippo made up his mind that he would come out of the river, climb the tree, and start singing. However, when he tried to climb the tree, it was very clear that the hippo didn't 3二、阅读理解have wings, nor claws to climb with.Realizing that he would never climb up the tree, he angrily hit the tree until it came crashing on the ground. Then he stepped onto the leaves of the fallen tree, and began singing.Unfortunately, hippos can't sing, either. All that came from his mouth were terrible noises,and when the other animals heard this, they all came around to make fun of the hippo.He was so ashamed of this. He also felt bad about having knocked the tree over. He used all his strength to raise the tree back up again, and look after it until it completely recovered.A.had wings to flyB.could nest in the treeC.was good at building a nestD.could sing very wellThe hippo envied the bird because the bird .(1)A.he tried to climb it againB.he hit the tree angrilyC.he soon felt ashamed of himselfD.he ran away angrilyAfter the hippo realized that he couldn't climb the tree, .(2)A.b-c-e-d-a B.c-e-d-b-a C.b-d-c-e-a D.c-b-d-e-aWhich of the following is in the right order according to the passage?a.

Manypeople die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood-powered or coal-powered stoves.One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun. Crosby Menzies, a solar power expert in a South African company, described his latest solar cooker called the "Sol-4". "It's four square meters of mirrors, six to eight meters in length.It is quite a large cooker."4The "Sol-4" works by reflecting(反射) light from the sun off large mirrors. The mirrors direct (把……对准) the light as a cooking pan. Then the light heats the pan with solar energy. Within two minutes, the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions. In just four minutes, water can be boiled. That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity.The cooker is also much "friendlier" than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it. And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal. Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.At present, the cooker only works when the sun is shining. But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight. Each cooker costs about $2,000, which is a large amount of money for most Africans. To solve that problem, Crosby Menzies has created a non-governmental organization called Solar Cookers for Africa. It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment.A.a magazineB.a storybookC.a guidebookD.a textbookThis passage probably comes from .(1)A.B.C.D.The "Sol-4" is mainly used to .shorten the time of cookingreduce the cost of making cookersraise money through donations to help African peoplereduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke(2)A.cookers B.mirrors C.people D.expertsThe underlined word "individuals" most probably refers to .(3)A.B.C.D.How soon can water be boiled in the "Sol-4"?That is much faster than cooking with natural gas.Within two minutes.That is as slow as cooking with electricity.In only four minutes.(4)A.B.C.D.From the passage, we can infer that .the "Sol-4" will be designed in a smaller sizemore Africans can use the solar cooker in the futurethe "Sol-4" is the first product of the South African companythe African government will provide poor people with solar cookers(5) Young novelistSuzanne Todd has just won the Best New Writer Prize for her first book Roadrunner . The idea for the book came from her own travels-four years ago she decided to give up her job in a 5bank to go round the world on her own for a year."I was tired of doing the same thing every day and wanted to find some excitement before it was too late," she says. "It was fun getting ready for the trip, and thinking about all the things I would do. But when the day came to leave, I was suddenly afraid, and I didn't want to go. I kept thinking, what am I doing? What's wrong with me? I have no job, no money, and I am all by myself! I felt so worried sitting on the plane that I was counting the weeks until I could come back! But once the plane landed, I realized how exciting life was, and how lucky I was able to do this. I saw many wonderful things, and in India I met Richard, who is now my husband."Back home, she started writing Roadrunner . This novel is about Tara Roberts, who decides to give up her job and travel around the world, and it sounds like it is all a true story aboutSuzanne. "Tara goes to the same places as me and feels the same about them, but I don't have her crazy way of behaving or get into danger as she does," Suzanne explains.Suzanne's second book called Sailing , shows Tara in different funny situations, andunusually for a second book, is just as enjoyable as the first. This is even more surprising when you consider that since the birth of her son, Suzanne has had to find the time for writing while looking after him. "I have to plan things better now," she says.Roadrunner is going to be made into a film, a third and final novel about Tara is planned,and Suzanne is still only 29. How does she feel about her future? "I just take things as they come," she says with a smile.A.giving up her jobB.travelling around the worldC.meeting her husbandD.being a worker in a bank The underlined word "this" in Paragraph 2 refers to .(1)A.They have similar travel experiences.B.They have similar characters.C.Both write books about their journeys.D.Both lead dangerous lives.In what way are Suzanne and the character of Roadrunner similar?(2)A.B.C.D.How does the writer feel about Suzanne's second book Sailing ?He's not pleased Suzanne spent less time on it.He's surprised Suzanne can repeat her success.He's not interested in reading more about the same person.He's pleased she's included ideas about children in it.(3)A.B.C.D.What can we learn from the story?Suzanne Todd was a bank clerk after going around the world.Three novels about Tara are planned and one of them has finished.It tells us some background information about the book Roadrunner .Suzanne Todd won the Best New Writer Prize for her first film.(4)A.What kind of person is Suzanne?She is quiet and shy and doesn't take risks.(5)B.C.D.She does crazy things and gets into dangerous situations.She likes to plan things very carefully.She is happy and enjoys the challenge.Welcome to the Painting Competition for Woodlands StudentsThe International Anti-Drug (禁毒) Day this year is coming soon.

In the morning light, I could see the shadows that were etched (蚀刻) deep within the lines around his eyes.Each morning I walked this route with my daughter to her school. We were new to the neighborhood so I didn’t know many of my neighbors. On one beautiful auturnn morning, as we passed his house, my daughter called out to him, “Hi, Mr. Man!” Always the outgo ing child, I wasn’t surprised at her enthusiasm (热情). But her cheerfulness soon faded when the man didn’t look at her and say “Hi” back.As we continued on our walk to school, my daughter asked why the man didn’t want to say hi to her. Because I didn’t have an answer, I said simply, “Maybe he is having a bad day.” Later I knew that Bob lost his wife in a car accident.A few days later, as we approached Bob’s house on our way to school, my daughter called out “Hi, Mr. Man!” and as usual, he didn’t answer. Bu t then she ran onto his front garden and picked up a beautiful red auturnn leaf. She continued up one step and handed it to him. I held my breath.As she skipped back to me, she said, “See you tomorrow, Mr. Man!” This time, he made a reply. In a soft gentl e voice, he thanked her and said, “See you tomorrow.”From then on, Bob and my daughter exchanged greetings each morning. Our friendship with Bob continued for many years. But, the sweetest day was when Bob attended my daughter’s high school graduation. Bob gave my daughter a gift—a book on recognizing various plants and trees. There, collected in the pages that described an oak tree, was the leaf my daughter had given to Mr. Man when they met. He had dried and pressed it and kept it all these years.26.What puzzled the girl?A.The cause of the man’s sadness.B.The shadows in the man’s eyes.C.The man’s sitting still on the steps.D.The man’s not answering her greeting. 27.The underlined word “faded” in paragraph 2 probably means ________.A.continued B.improved C.increased D.disappeared 28.How did the writer feel when her daughter gave the red leaf to the man?A.She was nervous about what would go on. B.She was proud of her daughter.C.She felt happy to see the changes of the man. D.She felt it strange to do so.29.Why did Bob keep that little red leaf?A.It was a reminder of his painful days. B.It stood for the girl’s coldness.C.It was care and kindness from the girl. D.It showed his rich knowledge of trees.Cultures across the world have different ways for people to greet one another. In New Zealand, they bump noses! The goal of these actions is to make others feel welcome. However, some people would rather say hello orally. They don’t like being touched. Neither does the sensitive plant. Some people keep the sensitive plant as a houseplant because of its interesting behavior. When you touch the leaves of the sensitive plant, it releases (释放) water from its leaves and stalks. As water runs to the plant’s base, the leaves close and the stalks droop. This c auses the plant to look wilted (枯萎)!The sensitive plant draws back from physical contact because it doesn’t want you to touch it, of course! Just like people, this plant sends physical signals that you should leave it alone. This reaction to touch is a defense system. Many animals and insects eat plants, so the sensitive plant learned to move to scare away predators (捕食者). Frightened by the sudden wilting, hungry animals move away to find a different plant to cat. Additionally, wilted plants don’t lookmouth-watering. This encourages other nearby predators to look for their dinner elsewhere.If you touch the sensitive plant and it wilts, have no fear! It’s still a healthy plant. After a few minutes, it will send water back to its leaves and stand straight up again. However, it takes lots of time for the sensitive plant to refresh itself. Don’t touch the plant just to watch it wilt. It may seem like fun, but it’s not fun for its refreshment.It’s always important to pay attention to the body language of plant s, animals, and other people! We should never want to make other living things uncomfortable, and especially not for our own entertainment.30.What’s the main purpose of writing paragraph 1?A.To introduce the cultures across the world.B.To list the actions that can make others feel welcome.C.To compare different ways for people to greet one another.D.To lead readers to make a connection between people and the plant.31.We can infer that the sensitive plant may be also called _________.A.forget-me-not B.touch-me-not C.rose of sharon D.daughter of wind 32.The sensitive plant’s interesting behavior is actually a way to _________.A.protect itself B.entertain itself C.attract animals D.kill animals 33.In the writer’s view, _________.A.watching the sensitive plant wilt is funB.we should treat other living things kindlyC.body language doesn’t help us know each other betterD.it’s a good idea to keep the sensitive plant as a houseplantChicken eggs are just thin shells (壳) made of mineral (矿物), but you may be surprised how strong they are.What you need*Four eggs*A bowl*A pen*Scissors or a knife*A piece of paper*Some booksWhat to do① Use the scissors or knife to break a hole in the small end of each egg. Emptyout what’s inside into the bowl. Wash and dry the shells.② Draw a fine line around the widest part of each egg. Break away the shellbetween the line and the hole slowly.③ put shells in a square at the four comers of the piece of paper, with the roundend of the egg on top.④ Place books gently onto the four egg shells one after another, and see howmany books you can add before the egg shells break down!What happenedThe strength of an eggshell lies in its shape. It’s like a 3D arch (拱形) or dome,which is one of the strongest shapes. The shape of the eggshell spreads pressureall over the whole egg rather than at one point. In fact, the shape of the egg hell isseen in many types of architecture, including doorways and large windows. Thestrong walls of the shell will support the weak point. At right conditions, the thineggshell can even hold up 20kg weight!34.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A.show that eggshells are strong B.learn how to break eggshellsC.find out different kinds of eggshells D.test what eggshells are made of 35.Picture ________ is the right way to practice Step 3.A.B.C.D.36.From the passage, we know that the eggshell is strong because ________.A.the material of eggshell is special B.it puts the pressure at one pointC.it spreads pressure to the whole egg D.the weak point supports the strong onesBeing a teenager can be challenging, but it can also be exciting. You’re becoming more independent and making decisions for yourself. You are also learning to take risks and solve problems better. And changes are happening throughout your body, even in your brain.The changes in your brain are influencing how you develop into an adult. Imagine the structure(结构)of your brain is like a big road map. Lots of roads lead to different destinations (目的地). When you were a child, as you learnt new things, your brain created more and more roads to different destinations. By the time you become a teenager, many different roads lead to the most important places on the map. Now your brain's job is to make that map more efficient.As a result, your experiences as a teenager actually influence the way that your brain develops. If you spend hours playing video games, what skills do you use? You learn to see something with your eyes and respond to it with your hands. As you develop those skills, your brain is making sure that the roads leading to them are especially fast and efficient. So, your video-game playing could be preparing you for a career such as a pilot.This is a great time for you to practice new skills and discover what you're good at and try what you love doing. Go out and try different activities, and stick to them if you think they’re useful. Remember that with everything you do, you’re shaping your brain for the future. 37.What happens as children learn new things?A.Their brains make the maps more efficient.B.The structures of their brains are like big road maps.C.Their brains create more roads to different destinations.D.Many different roads lead to the most important places.38.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Your brain. B.Something you see. C.Your skill. D.Something you learn. 39.What’s the writer’s advice for teenagers?A.Teenagers should learn to be more independent.B.Teenagers should work harder and more efficiently.C.Teenagers should play more video games in order to be a pilot.D.Teenagers should experience more and stick to the useful activities.40.Which would be the best title for the passage?A.Making Decisions for Yourself. B.Developing Your Brain for the Future. C.Ways of Changing Your Brain. D.Changes Happening in Your Brain.2021年广东省广州市番禺区中考一模英语试题三、阅读单选Peking Opera (Beijing Opera) is one of the most ancient forms of drama in the world. The roles in it were Sheng, Dan, Jing, Mo, Chou, Wuhang, and Longtao during its early age. But with the development of Peking Opera, there are four main roles in it today: Sheng, Dan, Jing and Chou.26.The passage is mainly about ________.A.the roles in Peking Opera B.the development of playsC.different forms of dramas D.the history of Peking Opera27.________ belong to the same role type in Peking Opera.A.Wujing and Huadan B.Tongchui and JiaziC.Laosheng and Laodan D.Qingyi and Wuchou28.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Mei Lanfang created a type of Qingyi Hongsheng.B.Zhao Kuangyin and Guan Gong are two roles known as Xiaosheng.C.The Monkey King has a special position among Chinese Opera fans.D.Wusheng is the middle-aged or older general skilled in martial arts.Earthquake rescue robots have experienced their final tests in Beijing. Their designers say with these robots, rescuers will be able to buy more time to save lives during an earthquake.This kind of robot looking like a helicopter is a flying robot. It’s about 3 metres long, and it took about 4 years to develop the model. Its main functions are to collect information from the air, and send goods of up to 30 kilos to people trapped by an earthquake. It has a high-definition360-degree panoramic (全景的) camera. It can work day and night and is also able to send the latest pictures from the quake area.Dr. Qi Juntong, a researcher at Chinese Academy of Sciences, said, “The most important feature of this flying robot is that it doesn’t need a distant control. We just set the destination information on it, and then it takes off, and lands by itself. It flies as high as 3,000 metres, and as fast as 100 kilometres per hour.”This robot has a different function—it can change as the environment changes. Its main job is to search for any signs of life in places where human rescuers are unable to go. As well as a detector (探测器) that finds victims and detects poisonous gases, a camera is placed in the3-metre-long robot, which can work in the dark. Another use for the rescuers is the supply part, with its 10-metre-long pipe, people who are trapped in the ruins will be able to get supplies including oxygen and liquids.Experts have said that the robots will enter production and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team as soon as possible.29.According to Dr. Qi Juntong, what makes this robot mainly different from the others?A.It has more functions. B.It is tall and has a special shape.C.It has more advanced cameras. D.It can work by itself once given the information.30.What does the underlined word “which” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.A camera. B.A detector. C.A rescuer. D.A supply. 31.What can we learn about this robot from the passage?A.It is carried by the helicopter. B.It is a machine with a length of 10 metres. C.It weighs about 30 kilos. D.It hasn’t been put into production so far. 32.What is the passage mainly about?A.What the robot looks like. B.An introduction to a robot.C.How the robot is made. D.Information about earthquakes.When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how c ould what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older, I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have an y eyelids and the sun hurts their eyes...The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.33.Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?A.He could not catch a fish. B.His father was not patient with him. C.His father did not teach him fishing. D.He could not influence a fish as his father did. 34.What did the author’s father really mean?A.To read about fish. B.To learn fishing by oneself.C.To understand what fishermen think. D.To study fishing in many ways. 35.According to the author, fish are most likely to be found ________.A.in deep water on sunny days B.in deep water on cloudy daysC.in shallow water under waterside trees D.in shallow water under direct sunlight 36.After entering the business world, the author found ________.A.it easy to think like a customer B.his first boss’s sales ideas reasonableC.his father’s fishing advice inspiring D.it difficult to sell services to poor peopleImagine a vegetable garden that everyone can reach: one you don’t have to bend down to weed, that can follow the sun around in a small backyard and that won’t take up too much space. “Impossible!” you say think-again! A group of people living in suburb came up with a creative way to garden in small space.They all love growing vegetables but not everyone could do that when they just had conventional vegetable garden. To solve the problem, they added a movable vegetable patch (小块菜地). They turned an old hospital bed into a garden on wheels. The bed can be raised and lowered so everyone, including people in wheelchairs, can enjoy working in the garden. Their local greengrocer provided some containers, where they planted their vegetables. This perfect garden can be easily wheeled around to follow the sun!It is a great activity for Michelle, Marianne, Shelly, Jimmy and Ashley, who have a disability and are supported in their homes by people employed by the Department of Human Services. The garden is a joy to everyone and provides the vegetables for a lot of cheap and nutritious meals. “Our garden is coming along well,” says Michelle.“We’ve been eating lots of salad items lettuce, cucumbers, spring onions. Everyone loves them. Unfortunately, the strawberries were a failure. I think it was a bit too hot in the pots for them. We have plans for a potato crop next year, grown on newspapers and covered with straw and sheep manure. It is a very ‘no-dig’ way to grow them.”37.What does the underlined word “conventional” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Traditional. B.Special. C.Real. D.Large.38.What is the most obvious advantage of the new garden?A.It can save energy. B.It is environmentally friendly.C.It is quite cheap. D.It can be easily offered.39.Why may disabled people especially love the new garden?A.Because it offers a new career to them.B.Because it brings them a lot of pleasure.C.Because it encourages them to help other people.D.Because it helps them make some money.40.What can we learn from the passage?A.People need to get more fresh and cheap vegetables.B.It’s a joy for people to be in close touch with creative gardens.C.People want to make the best use of waste and old materials.D.It’s necessary for disabled people to eat vegetables planted by themselves.2020年广东省广州市番禺区中考一模英语试题三、阅读单选I am a music store owner. One day, when I was cleaning the instruments in my store, I saw an old man come in. “Is 77 too old to learn the banjo(班卓琴)?” he asked.“You can learn to play it well,” I replied, holding back my doubts. My mind told me I wa s giving false encouragement. I passed him the teaching schedule, the available time and the information that he would need. To my surprise and joy, the old man, Carl, began banjo lessons three days later with my most patient teacher.With nothing to do at home but practice, Carl made surprising progress. After breakfast he practiced for his required half an hour. While waiting for lunch he picked up his banjo again for just a couple of minutes. Since TV was difficult for him to see and hear, he often played the banjo in the evenings. Carl was always early for lessons so it was a surprise that he didn’t arrive one Tuesday.The next morning I listened to the answering machine with sadness. “Carl’s in hospital,” the voice recorded.Two months later, I shared the newspaper obituary with the banjo teacher. We both felt sad for losing a surprisingly clever banjo student.Several months later, a woman came into the store carrying a plant. “This is for Carl’s banjo teacher,” she said. “I’m his wife, Mary.”“Why did Carl want to play the banjo?” I asked. Mary took a deep breath and let it out slowly. “Carl was at a show when he was 10 years old. He came close to the stage to watch the performers. When they were packing up their instruments, the banjo player said to Ca rl, ‘You want to see this up close?’ Carl climbed up on the stage and from then on he wanted to play the banjo.” Carl had waited 67 years to realize a dream! Mary gave the plant to Carl’s banjo teacher. “Thank you for the best six months of his life,” she said.26.From the first 2 paragraphs, we can know the author ______________.A.gave Carl some help B.refused Carl indirectlyC.was sure of Carl’s ability D.taught Carl in person27.How did Carl learn to play the banjo well?A.By following the best teacher.

It is said that the emperor liked his drinking water boiled before he drank it, so that was what his servant did. One day, on a trip to a distant place, he and his army stopped to rest. A servant began boiling water for him to drink, and a dead leaf from the wild tea bush fell into the water. It turned brown, but it was unnoticed and presented to the emperor anyway. The emperor drank it and found it very refreshing. and tea came into being.The origin of tea as a medicine for staying awake is unclear. China is considered to have the earliest records of tea drinking, with recorded tea use in its history dating back to the first millennium (千年) B.C.The Han Dynasty (206 B.C.—220 A.D.) used tea as medicine. The use of tea as a drink for pleasure on social occasions dates from the Tang Dynasty (618—907 A.D.).The Tang Dynasty writer Lu Yu's (729- -804 A.D.) Cha Jing is an early work on the subject. According to Cha Jing writing, around 760 A.D, tea drinking was very popular. The book describes how tea plants were grown and how the leaves were processed. It also describes how tea was developed. The book also discusses where the best tea leaves were produced.At this time in tea's history, the nature of the drink and style of tea preparation were quite different from the way we experience today. Tea leaves were processed into the forms of cakes. The dried teacake, generally called brick tea was placed in a stone mortar (臼). Hot water was added to the powdered teacake and then enjoyed as a hot drink.31.From the first paragraph, it can be inferred that ______________.A.Shennong's servant first discovered tea leavesB.tea came into being only by accidentC.the emperor was angry at his servant's workD.the emperor won the battle after drinking tea32.What docs the underlined "it" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.The water.

D.Helping one stay relaxed.34.What can you find in Cha Jing?A.How to plant tea plants. B.How to make teacake.C.How to store the tea. D.How to tell different kinds of tea. 35.What's the best title for the passage?A.Away to prepare tea B.The person who discovered tea first C.The early history of tea D.The nature of teaA British man has learned the skills needed to perform Beijing Opera, making the audience enjoy his lively performance of the Monkey King.Ghaffar Pourazar, born in Iran, said he had been a big fan of Bruce Lee since he was a child and was full of interest about China. In 1993, he happened to watch Beijing Opera performed in London by professionals from Jingju Theatre Company of Beijing. Ghaffar said he fell in love with the beautiful voices, colorful costurnes, excellent shows and so on. So after one year, he arrived in China alone and became a student of Beijing Opera at a Beijing school.At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist. At the time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest problem. But he never gave up.Four years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King, a traditional character from the Chinese classic story Journey to the West. He said he arrived at the workroom an hour earlier than other performers and also bought books and CDs to better understand the character.Ghaffar today is not only good at speaking Beijing dialect ( 方言) but has also built a fame for Beijing Opera. He once got a top international prize for performing the Monkey King.To help more people enjoy Beijing Opera, Ghaffar often teaches the traditional art form in schools in the United States, Britain and other countries. When he found that the language was difficult to understand, he started to translate Beijing Opera song lyrics. Ghaffar took a group of actors to perform 66 times in a month and a half in the United States. He also took a 48-member team to perform in Malaysia. In the past 10 years, he has performed in more than 400 shows. 36.In the year of 1994, Ghaffar began to ________________.A.learn Beijing Opera in Beijing B.take an interest in ChinaC.make friends with Bruce Lee D.act the part of the Monkey King37.Why did Ghaffar buy books and CDs about Journey to the West?A.To learn the dialect.

Her bike was too 1 , and it needed repairing as well. As Christmas 2 , her dream for a bike seemed to disappear(消失), we thought, for she didn't say it again. We were busy 3 some beautiful story books, a doll house, a holiday dress and toys. Then to our surprise, on December 24, she said she really wanted a bike more than 4 .Now we didn't know 5 to do. It was just too late. We were busy with Christmas dinner and packing 6 presents, parents'presents, a brother's present and friends' presents till midnight. So there was 7 time to take to buy the "right bike" for our little girl. Thinking we were parents who would make their child unhappy, we felt sorry and 8 .Suddenly my husband had an idea. "What about making a little bike with clay (黏土) and writing a note that she could trade in (交换) the model bike for a real one?" So he spent the next five hours carefully 9 with clay to make a small bike.10 Christmas morning, we were so excited for Tracy to open the little box with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. She opened and read the 11 loudly. She looked at me and said, "So, does this mean I can trade in this bike for a real 12 ?" Smiling, I said, "Yes!" Tracy had tears in her e yes when she replied, ‘I would 13 trade in this beautiful bike Daddy made me. I 14 keep it than get a real bike.

The sun was shining and filled the kitchen with a warm light. It was a perfect day for having a picnic or going surfing. But in the Turners' kitchen, no one seemed to be paying attention to the 16 ."Okay, girls," said Mrs. Turner. "I can tell by the expressions on your faces that you have a pretty good idea of why we need to have this family 17 ." Linda and Kala exchanged looks and slowly nodded."Your mom and I have had many talks lately about the possibility of 18 ," said Mr. Turner. "We were hoping that it wouldn't come to this, 19 we don't have other choices.""But Dad," said Kala, "Kilauea has been an active volcano (火山)since 1983! Nothing has happened to us or to our house yet. I think we'll be 20 here.""But your dad and I care about all the recent warnings giving by the government. Even though we've been safe up to now, there is no way to guarantee (保证)that a larger eruption (喷发)isn't coming up," said Mrs. Turner."Mom, this is our 21 . I can't even remember living anywhere else!" Linda said, fighting back tears.Mrs. Turner put an arm around her daughter's shoulder. "This won't go 22 for any of us," she said. "Dad and I love this house, too. We have so many happy memories here. But we're tired of living with such uncertainty. The most 23 thing in the world to us is that our family stays safe."Mr. Turner 24 . "Girls, there are other places in Hawaii where we'll feel safer. We'll have to 25 our house, but you know home is wherever we go as a family. We'll make new 26 , and we'll find things to love about our new home."The girls were quiet for a moment as they considered 27 it would mean to move. "There are so many things I'll 28 here," said Kala quietly."We all will," said Mrs. Turner. "But one of the places that your dad and I have looked at is only a few minutes' walk to the beach."Kala and Linda couldn't help 29 when they heard that. They both spent every spare minute they had surfing. If their parents told them that they could actually live in the water, they would have been perfectly happy.Mr. Turner walked around to the other side of the table. He put one large hand on each of his daughter's shoulders. "I'm proud of you two," he said. "Thank you for trying to 30 why this is so important to your mom and me."Linda and Kala smiled.

Simard and her colleagues have made the major discovery that trees and plants really do communicate and interact with each other.Trees live on through their group work and support, passing around the resources such as nitrogen and carbon “depending on who needs it by miles of underground fungi(真菌)networks. This makes sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons(神经元)in our brains, and when one tree is cut down, it affects all.Simard talks about "Mother Trees". These are the largest, oldest trees that rise above the forest, a concept explained in the movie Avatar. These “Mother Trees" are connected to all the other trees in the forest by this network of fungi, and may manage the resources of the whole trees and plants in the forest. She explains how these trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important resources to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down "Mother Trees" without paying attention to these highly complex "tree societies” or the networks on which they feed, we are losing the chances to save the whole forest."We didn't take any notice of it,” Simard says sadly. “Mother Trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them a chance.” If we could send this message tothe forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.31.Trees can share resources with other ones by________.A.the help from animals B.underground fungi networksC.the communication with people D.neurons in the system of brains 32."Mother Trees" are very important because they________.A.bring wealth to the scientists B.pass on nutrition to young trees C.get more from the complex “tree societies”D.seem more likely to be cut down by humans33.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to________ .A.how trees grow old B.how "tree societies" workC.how young trees are saved D.how forestry industry develops 34.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Trees Are Rich in Resources B.Trees Are Good for Our Society C.Trees Are in Need of Protection D.Trees Are More Complex Than We Think Pollution inside homes and other buildings kills more than 4 million people each year.Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood﹣powered ofcoal﹣powered stoves.One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun.Crosby Menzies,a solar power expert in a South African company,described his latest solar cooker called t he“Sol.4”,”It is four square meters of mirrors,six to eight meters in length.It is quite a large cooler.”The“Sol.4”works by reflecting (反射)light from the sun off large mirrors.The mirrors direct (把…对准)the light at a cooking pan.Then the light heats the pan with solar energy.Within two minutes,the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions.In just four minutes,water can be boiled.That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity.The cooker is also much “friendlier” than other models because peo ple do not have to stand in the sun to use it.And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal.Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.At present,the cooker only works when the sun is shining.But engineers are working on a试卷第6页,总10页way to make it work without sunlight .Each cooker costs about $2000,which is a large amount of money for most Africans .To solve that problem ,Crosby Menzies has crated a non ﹣governmental organization called solar Cookers for Africa .It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment .35.This passage is mainly about . A .solar cookers B .smoke pollution C .solar power experts D .breathing illnesses36.The “Sol ﹣4”is m ainly used to . A .shorten the time of cooking B .reduce the cost of making cookersC .raise money through donations to help African peopleD .reduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke .37.The underlined word “individuals“ most probably means“ ” A .cookersB .mirrorsC .peopleD .experts38.Which of the following about the “Sol ﹣4”is TRUE ? A .It is six to eight square meters of mirrors . B .It can work in any weather condition now C .It can also heat the pan by lighting firewoodD .It is more environment ﹣friendly than other cookers . 39.From the passage ,we can infer that . A .the “Sol ﹣4”will be designed in a smaller size B .more African can use the solar cookers in the future C .the “Sol ﹣4”is the first product of the south African company D .the African government will provide poor people with solar cookers .My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3: @ kids FTF. ILNY, it's gr8.Can you understand this sentence? If you can't, don't feel too bad. Neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: thelanguage of computerized communication found on Internet or mobile phones. To newcomers, it may look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the ‘translation' of the sentence above? It means: My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York, it's great.Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students' writing. They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).Everyone should just relax, say linguists(语言学家). They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says, "Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents."Linguist James Milroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today's teenagers become tomorrow's parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become "corrupted"; they simply change to meet the new needs.However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, "I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it's important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future."Perhaps we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn't use text language in my homework. Texting is just for fun"40.What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?A.To give an example of a foreign language. B.To show an example of creative methods. C.To express worries about using Netspeak. D.To lead in the topic of Netspeak. 41.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Cynthia McVey points out teenagers can deal with Netspeak properly.B.Geoffrey Nunberg believes Netspeakers can write Standard English.C.David Crystal thinks Netspeak helps develop the habit of writing.D.James Milroy says that language is changing and improving.试卷第8页,总10页42.The expression "bet your bottom dollar" in Paragraph 5 means ________.

Though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance.Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She fell in love with music when she was young. She began to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the “colorful” music through sound and emotion.Ma’s mother Ha Chunyan, was a music teacher in a primary school and helped hermemorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.“After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises,” said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said,“As I’ve been practising so long, it’s hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practising.”In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow two famous musicians Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan from the Central Conservatory of Music and study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream, though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. “All my hard work has paid off. I’m proud of standing on the stage today.”29.How does the writer describe Ma’s difficulties in learning the violin?A.By questioning.B.By listing numbers.C.By offering advice.D.By giving examples.30.Which is the correct order according to the passage?a. Ma got a chance to study music in Beijing.b. Ma performed at the Beijing 2022 Olympic Games.c. Ma began to learn to play the piano.d. Ma went blind because of an illness.A.c-b-d-a B.a-d-c-b C.d-c-a-b D.b-d-c-a31.What does the underlined phrase “persist in” probably mean in paragraph 5?A.Keep on.B.End up.C.Take part in.D.Look forward to. 32.What does Ma’s story tell us?A.Handsome is as handsome does.B.There is no place like home.C.Practice makes perfect.D.A good friend is like a mirror.Even though we may believe that it’s important to say thank you, sometimes expressing gratitude (感恩) is easier said than done. We might find ourselves getting confused about the details of what to say or the best way to send the message. As a result, many times, we do not express our gratitude.According to new research, however, it’s possible that we might be making expressing thanks more complicated (复杂的) than it needs to be. In a paper published in a psychology magazine, researchers compared the effects of expressing thanks in person, over a video call, and by text. While people generally expect an in-person thank-you to be most effective, what happened in daily life was quite different—sending a thank-you by text was almost as useful and effective as expressing thanks in person. What’s more, texting may be a very good choice when we feel embarrassed about expressing our thanks.In one study, 219 college students took part in a gratitude activity in which they wrote about three things they were grateful for over a two-week period. After writing, the students were asked to actually thank the people. Some connected with the people they wanted to thank in person, others made video calls, and others sent messages. At the beginning and end of the two weeks, these students completed surveys sharing their feelings of well-being, connections, depression, loneliness, and happiness. The researchers found that people who expressed gratitude increased their well-being, with only a few differences between the different methods of gratitude expression. Overall, video calls were just as beneficial (有益的) as meeting in person. Texting was a bit less effective than video calling—it didn’t make people feel more connected and happy. However, participants who sent their thanks by text still experienced benefits: Texting improved their well-being and reduced their loneliness.Overall, the message is that we shouldn’t worry about finding just the “right” way to express our gratitude. In fact, you will probably feel better sending a quick thank-you today than waiting for the right time to plan an in-person visit. You can be sure to get many benefits of gratitude no matter how you send the message.33.What is the main reason that most people do not express their gratitude?A.They feel ashamed to express gratitude.B.They waste too much money before saying it.C.They think it is useless to express gratitude.D.They think too much about the best way to do it.34.What does the paper mainly show in paragraph 2?A.We have to learn how to express thanks to others properly.B.We had better express gratitude in person instead of texting.C.Different ways to express thanks have almost the same effect.D.Expressing thanks is a complicated task and makes us embarrassed.35.How does the writer develop paragraph 3?A.By comparing results.B.By listing numbers.C.By telling stories.D.By giving outlines.36.What is the writer’s advice on expressing gratitude?A.People should take video calling as their first choice.B.People need to think twice before they express thanks.C.It is better to make a good plan before paying others a visit.D.It is more important to take action than to worry about the methods.One out of every six deaths in 2019 were the result of pollution, according to a recent study published in The Lancet Planetary Health. The analysis, led by a team of scientists, shows that pollution played a role in 9 million deaths globally in 2019. This influence on health is higher than malaria, tuberculosis, HIV, drugs or alcohol.Though improvements were made in water pollution in recent years, a rise in air and chemical pollution means the death rate has been relatively unchanged since 2015.Air pollution alone resulted in almost 75% of the reported deaths. “Air pollution is similar to smoking. It damages the lungs, preventing us from taking in oxygen we need for life,” said Dr. Martin, one of the scientists.Another concern is the growing numbers in chemical and heavy metal pollution, especially lead poisoning. High amount of lead in the blood can cause problems with the heart, kidneys and brain. This type of pollution is a result of batteries and electronic waste, such as computers.Some high-income countries have made some steps to fight against pollution. Many low-and middle-income countries are facing the effects, as most of the deaths reported happened in these countries. But experts say pollution doesn’t know borders—and pollution in one countrycan lead to health problems across the whole world.The scientists who led the recent analysis hope the report will encourage actions from countries all over the world. Suggested methods for change include controlling pollution levels, spending more money on research, strengthening pollution control partnerships and highlighting this problem in the United Nations. Changing the use of fossil fuels—from coal, oil and gas—to clean, renewable energy sources is also highly suggested. In daily life, researchers call for people to control their carbon footprint, such as cutting meat consumption, avoiding waste, or walking or biking as a means of transport when possible.37.What do we know about the deaths in 2019 from the study?A.Water pollution did not result in any death.B.Air pollution played a main part in the deaths.C.People died mainly from diseases and alcohol.D.The death rate has been lower since recent years.38.What can we do to avoid lead poisoning?A.Deal with electronic waste properly.B.Take good care of the heart and kidneys.C.Stop smoking and do more exercise.D.Have a medical examination every year.39.What does the underlined word “borders” mean in Paragraph 5?A.Land types.B.Different languages.C.Dividing lines.D.Food differences.40.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To talk about the harmful effects of pollution.B.To introduce useful ways to deal with air pollution.C.To discuss the relation between global deaths and pollution.D.To advise people to work together to fight against pollution.阅读短文及文后A~E选项,选出可以填入1~5 各题空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

This was a very interesting story. I 1 thousands of classes since I started school nine years ago. But one class was 2 of all.It happened last term just after I had got a bad result in 3 exam. I was sad and had lost my confidence. I decided 4 to a class 5 can tell me how to be successful. The speaker walked into the room. 6 he did not start talking like a teacher. Instead, he held up a twenty yuan note!“Who wants this?” he asked. Unsurprisingly, 7 of us in the class held up our hands. The speaker smiled. Then he put up the note on the blackboard and asked the same question. Again, we put up our hands. The speaker kept 8 , but said __9_ . Suddenly, he threw the note onto the floor! Then he asked the same question for __10_ time.I didn't understand the speaker. Why was he asking the same question again and again? I didn't know 11 to do. I wanted the note, so I put my hand up again.“You have all just told me how to become successful.” He said to us 12 the note in his hand. “The note is worth twenty yuan.It is always worth twenty yuan, even though I throw it on the floor. You are like the note. No matter what happens to you, you still have your worth.”Hearing those words, I 13 deeply. Suddenly, I realized I was worth a lot.

(A)I am a music store owner. One day, when I was cleaning the instruments in my store, I saw an old man come in. “Is 77 too old to lear n the banjo (班卓琴)?” he asked.“You can learn to play it well,” I replied, holding back my doubts. My mind told me I was giving false encouragement. I passed him the teaching schedule, the available time and the information that he would need. To my surprise and joy, the old man, Carl, began banjo lessons three days later with my most patient teacher,With nothing to do at home but practice, Carl made surprising progress. After breakfast he practiced for his required half an hour. While waiting for lunch he picked up his banjo again for just a couple of minutes. Since TV was difficult for him to see and hear, he often played the banjo in the evenings. Carl was always early for lessons so it was a surprise that he didn't arrive one Tuesday.The next morning I listened to the answering machine with sadness.“Carl's in hospital,” the voice recorded.Two months later, I shared the newspaper obituary with the banjo teacher. We both felt sad for losing a surprisingly clever banjo student.Several months later, a woman came into the store carrying a plant. “This is for Carl's banjo teacher, she said. “I’m his wife, Mary.”“Why did Carl want to play the banjo?” I asked. Mary took a deep breath and let it out slowly. “Carl was at a show when he was 10 years old. He came close to the sta ge to watch the performers. When they were packing up their instruments, the banjo player said to Carl, ‘You want to see this up close?’ Carl climbed up on the stage and from then on he wanted to play the banjo.” Carl had waited 67 years to realize a dream!

It is said that the emperor liked his drinking water boiled before he drank it, so that was what his servant did. One day, on a trip to a distant place, he and his army stopped to rest. A servant began boiling water for him to drink, and a dead leaf from the wild tea bush fell into the water. It turned brown, but it was unnoticed and presented to the emperor anyway.

The use of tea as a drink for pleasure on social occasions dates from the Tang Dynasty (618—907 A.D.).The Tang Dynasty writer Lu Yu's (729- -804 A.D.) Cha Jing is an early work on the subject. According to Cha Jing writing, around 760 A.D, tea drinking was very popular. The book describes how tea plants were grown and how the leaves were processed. It also describes how tea was developed. The book also discusses where the best tea leaves were produced.At this time in tea's history, the nature of the drink and style of tea preparation were quite different from the way we experience today. Tea leaves were processed into the forms of cakes. The dried teacake, generally called brick tea was placed in a stone mortar (臼).
