九年级中考英语阅读理解专练第（一）篇Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey(土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends .Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends.

Take famous poet Li Bai for example. His family nam e, which came from his father’s name, was Li. His given name was Bai, and his courtesy name was Taibai.People used their given names when they were among family members. But in social life, they called each other by their courtesy names to show respect. This was mostly done among people of similar age. If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name.Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married.One’s courtesy name often had something to do with one’s given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean “carriage (马车)”. Zhuge Liang’s given name was Liang, which means “bright”. His courtesy name was Kongming, which means “very bright”.1. How many parts are there in people’s names in ancient China?A. three.B. four.C. five.D. six.2.

Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. “I’m also disabled and I want to do something for them with my music,” said Ma.Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started 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, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize 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 practicing so long, it’s hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practicing.”In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the CentralConservatory of Music, to 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.

What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and itbecame quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying (伴奏) instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally (口头地), there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians (历史学者) usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).1.

Little did he know that he would not only compete for his country but also take home gold. With the great excitement of winning an Olympic gold medal still fresh in his mind, Su wrote a letter to the president, telling him how lucky he felt to have made his dream come true.Su still remembers what Xi wrote in the reply, “The new era is the time for young people to realize their dreams.”“I have always kept those words in my mind,” Su said.“When I made up my mind to be a professional(职业的) snowboarder, I know there is a big gap between my performance(表现) and that of the top sportsmen in the world. But I have been working hard to realize my dream. Now my story shows the fact that hard work will pay off.” Su said.Su believes the sky is the limit. “Find the thing you love, believe in yourself and do your very best.

Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, and usually far way from cities. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.The National Parks in England are called “England’s Breathing Spaces” because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems too. First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.How can people help? All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.1.According to paragraph 1, what can we learn about the National Parks?A.There are only several national parks in the worldB.

They are hard-working and professional in their work, and use sign language to communicate with each other from time to time.Bach’s Bakery lies in Changsha City, Hunan Province. It is run by a German couple, Uwe Brutzer and his wife Dorothee Brutzer, who started it up ten years ago with the purpose of creating more jobs for those disabled in the neighborhood. So far, Bach’s Bakery has trained around 30 hearing disabled people. While some skilled workers found jobs in other bakeries and hotels and have been able to live on their own, several of them have stayed to work atthe bakery after they completed the training.The Brutzers’ work has won the support of many people in China. With the spread of news about the bakery, many Internet users learned about Bach’s Bakery and its inspiring story. As a result, many local people in Changsha as well as visitors from other parts of the country come to buy their products, Uwe said that public attention has encouraged them a lot and helped grow the bakery’s business, resulting in workers getting higher pay. However, what he values more is that, through media (媒体) reports, more people have come to understand that disabled people can work as well as other people when they are given chances.Now, as they are preparing to return to Germany, they have found a German couple teaching in China as the new managers, and handed over the bakery to a public welfare (福利) organization.

What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Silent BakeryB. A Special WishC. The Success of the DisabledD. The Rules of Bach’s Bakery第（九）篇Scientists are looking for ways that we can effectively use the light and heat from the sun. One idea that has caught their imagination is solar roads. They are expected to produce clean and renewable energy.With solar panels on the surfaces, solar roads cost more than traditional roads. However, besides the functions of traditional roods, they have the panels to receive sunlight and change it into the energy to supply power to homes, factories and street lighting. There are four layers in a solar panel:•Base layer: It is made of insulation material and forms a good grip with the road below this layer.•Middle layer: This is the most important layer. It holds all kinds of power lines connecting all the solar parts in the panel, like LED lights and the heating system.•Top layer: This layer is super-strong glass. It allows the panel to hold the weight of the heaviest vehicles.•Capping: This is the topmost layer used to offer extra protection to the solar parts in the panel. The layer must be rough enough to provide the traction for the safety of vehicles.With the smart design, solar roads can successfully charge the vehicles on them. And the roads have inbuilt LED lights to replace the traditional rood signs and lines, which are usually painted and harmful to humans. What’s more, the heating systems in the solar roads can take care of the snow and ice on the roads for drivers.Test solar roads have been built in several countries (France, China, USA, etc.) since 2014. The first word solar road project, Metrics of Watt Way in France, was set up by a French company called Construction Colas. It was an example of low effectiveness. In the first year, it had been expected to produce around 767 kWh of energy a day, but it only produced 409 kWh. Even so, the production could increase with design improvements. Of course, more time is needed before this technology is put into use.Solar roads may not be widely used in the near future, but they are indeed great for an environment-friendly and energy-saving world.1. Solar roads ________.A. offer power to homesB. get energy from factoriesC. keep the sunlight awayD. cost less than traditional roods2. Which of the following about the layers of a solar panel is TRUE according to the passage?A. The base layer is the most important layer.B. There are many power lines in the middle layer.C. The top layer lies on the top of the solar panel.D. The capping should be smooth enough for drivers.3. The first world solar road project ________.A. was set up in China in 2014B. showed high effectiveness as expectedC. was started by a US companyD. could get better with design improvements4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Solar Roads: A Widely Used InventionB. Solar Roads: A Safety Guard for DriversC. Solar Roads: A New Idea for Clean EnergyD. Solar Roads: A Way to Produce LED Lights5. Which part of newspaper may you read this passage?A. HistoryB. FashionC. SportD. Environment第（十）篇Steven Spielberg is the world’s most famous director.

When she finished middle school in a town, she wouldn't return to the poor place and found work in a shop there. She wanted to marry (嫁) a rich man. As she wasn't friendly to others, nobody would marry her. Five years passed and she became a twenty-seven-year-old girl. She had to marry Mr King who taught maths in a school.

It is still true that a dog is one of the most useful animals in the world, but the reason that one keeps a dog has changed. Long , long ago, a man met a dog and wanted it to help him fight other animals, and he found that the dog listened to him and did what he told it to. Later people used dogs for hunting(打猎) of other animals, and the dog didn't eat what they got until their master(主人) agreed. So dogs were used for driving sheep and guarding chickens. But now people in the towns and cities do not need dogs to fight other animals. They keep them to frighten thieves, but the most important reason is that people feel lonely in the city.

In the USA, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Canada. However, English is spoken all over the world; it is the main language in over 60 countries, such as India, Singapore and in many of the Caribbean(加勒比海的) and Pacific islands, In these places English is often a second language.English is also used as an important international language in many other countries, like china and Japan. People in these countries use it for business, and travelers to these countries use English when they get there. Other people many learn English because they enjoy reading looks in English, listening to British orAmerican music or watching English films.English has changed a lot over the years and still goes on changing. It is no longer right to talk about British English or American English if the speaker doesn’t come from those countries in Japan or Korea, for example, may use the American spelling but may not sound like Americans.English will be most widely used language in the world in the 21st century.

People communicate(交流) with words. But do you know people also communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears(眼泪) in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake(摇) your head and people know you are saying "No".You nod(点头) and people know you are saying "Yes".Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the busstop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on the doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed(注意) that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time ?People can communicate in many other ways. An artist (艺术家) can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, the blue seas and many other things.Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful things in the world and what other people are thinking about.根据短文内容，选择正确答案，并将其代号填入左边的括号内。

Our guide informed us that this was a Baobab treeand that they could live for hundreds of years．Compared with this tree, the elephant just looked like dwarfs (much smaller plants or animals)! We were informed that Tarangire was one of the best National Parks in Africato see so many Baobab trees．As we continued our drive through the park, we finally reached a watering hole．Our guide warned us that there were lions all around us．It took us all a while to find them, but there they were! Most of them are restingin the shade under bushes, but there was one that was drinking from the watering hole directly in front of us．We then noticed just to our right, there were a couple of fresh zebra bodies — it seemed as if the lions which wereresting had killed them! We were unlucky not to have seen the kill, as our guide had mentioned that the zebrabodies were fresh and the kill had happened within the last hour．Our final big sighting was one that none of us were expecting to see, even our guide! We stopped at a placewhere there were quite a many cars, with a sleeping leopard（美洲豹）there! We took photos and watched itssurprising body before returning to our hotel as it was getting late．So, I hope you enjoyed my description of Tarangire, and add this amazing park to your very own Tanzaniatravel route．（401）1.

Which country is better to study in?”We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world.It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may beeasier to find jobs.But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of timelearning another language and getting used to a different culture.Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well. Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard withhis Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympics. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, consider whether studying abroad is the right choice.1. Fro m the passage, we learn that many Chinese students dream about studying abroad to_______.A. taste a new lifeB. make a lot of moneyC. learn about the worldD. learn to look after themselves2.

You are driving along in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are.You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have nomobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. Itis a device（装置）which uses satellites to find the user’s position. It can find your position to within 20 meters.A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.GPS, which means Global Positioning System（全球定位系统）, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobilephone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in you pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. Wealso find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know whereyou are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in yourhand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. the second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. Thereceiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a networkof ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaperand more and more accurate（精确的）. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become likewatches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.( ) 1.According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people _________.A. can’t be lost in a new cityB. can’t find their way in different countiesC. can learn about the culture of an unknown placeD. can spend the least time getting to another place( ) 2.We can learn from the passage that ___________.A. there are three parts to the GPSB. a GPS can’t be put into a watchC. a GPS can help you start your carD. the GPS are becoming more and more expensive( ) 3.

"That's an old saying in English. It means other places often look better, more interesting than the place where you live. Some people worry that young Ch inese are beginning to feel that way. They see young Chinese ignoring Chinese culture and, instead, buying Japanese cartoon books, watching Korean soap operas and even celebrating Western holidays.Foreign books and soap operas are good, but Chinese writers and actors are just as good. As for holidays, Christmas is nice, but it can never have the meaning for Chinese that Spring Festival has, and the West has nothing to compare with Mid-Autumn Festival. And let's not forget the part of Chinese culture I like best: its friendliness. Not all countries are as warm as China.It's good to enjoy other cultures and to learn from them, but they cannot replace your own culture. It's good to look on the other side of the fence, but make sure you take a good long look. You will find that the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the fence.判断正误；正确写T 错误写 F( ) 1.The Spring Festival is more meaningful for Chinese people.( ) 2.The saying means the place where you live looks better than other places.( ) 3.Foreign culture can't replace Chinese culture.( ) 4.Some people worry that young Chinese ignore Chinese culture.( ) 5.

阅读理解大全(一)When you are learning English, you find it not clever to translate an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do " for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.Languages don't just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It's important to master the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order , the listener can't understand the speaker's sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn't change between the two pairs of sentences:"She only likes apples." "Only she likes apples.""I have seen the film already." "I have already seen the film."When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker does.( )1.From the passage we know that when we are learning English.A. we shouldn't put every word into our languageB. we should look up every word it the dictionaryC. we need to put every word into our own language( )2.We can learn from the passage that .A. if the order of words is different, the meaning of the sentence must be differentB. the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentenceC. sometimes different order of words has a different meaning( )3.

He must change his reading speed to fit his purpose and the material he is reading, just as a driver does fit the road situation. A good reader may be able to read a thousand words per minute (WPM) , but he won't use that speed for everything he reads. A good reader doing research reading in the library may read at the speed of 1,000 words per minute as he looks for materials for a report. But once he finds something that is useful to him, hemay need to slow down to 100 WPM . A good reader may read newspaper and magazine articles at 600 WPM . But it may take him 150 WPM to read his science or maths text .

It was about 15 miles away on the other side of the hill. There we felt sure that we would find a bed for the night . Darkness fell along the narrow road to the hill. As we climbed higher, it became colder and rain began to fall. It was difficult at times to see the road, so I asked my friend John to drive slowly.Now we traveled for about 20miles but we could not find the town. We were beginning to feel worried. Then the car stopped. We found we were out of petrol, so we decided to spend the night in the car.After eating some bread, I tried to go to sleep at once, but John, a poor sleeper, got out of the car after a few minutes and went for a walk up the hill. Soon he came running back. From the top of the hill he had seen the lights of the town in the valley below. We at once tried to push car to the top of the hill. In less than an hour we were in the town, and we found a hotel there easily.1. The car stopped because___________.A. they had traveled more than 20 milesB. it was broken.C. there was no petrol left.2.

John ______________.A. was a poor man.B. couldn't sleep wellC. didn't like to sleep in the carD. knew the town well（四）C A A C B(五)"Cool" is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. "Cool" can be used to express feelings of interest in almost everything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say. "It's cool." You may think,"He's so cool,"when you see your favourite football player.We all maximize(扩大)the meaning of "cool". You can use it instead of many words, such as "new" or"surprising".Here's an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her student to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. On the student's paper was just the one sentence,"It's so cool."Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏)of words. Without "cool", some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性).Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word "cool" I can. And I think they are also very cool.1.We know that the word "cool" has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningC. many different meanings2.In the passage, the word "express" means "_______".A. seeB. showC. know3.If you are ________ something, you may say,"It's cool."A. interested inB. angry aboutC. worried about4.The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried about5.In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word "cool"___________.A. can be used instead of many wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colorful(五)C B A A C(六)Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended."That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty is," said Cai Wenguo , the school's headmaster. The school says no cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas. "I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11."Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed, 99 said Hua Sha."I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed," Liu Qingxi said."I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want tocheck their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.( ) 1. The passage mainly talks about ______________.A. how to pass an examB. how to make students honestC. whether invigilators are needed in exams( ) 2. No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang held a no-teacher exam to _________.

What does Hua Sha think about no-teacher examsA. It's a good idea to have no-teacher exams but something must be done first.B. If there are no invigilators, the students will certainly get lower marks.C. Exams without invigilators will never be held since students are not honest. ( ) 5. In the sentence "And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens" "they" refers to (指)_____________.A. studentsB. headmastersC. invigilators(六)C B B A C(七)Do you wish you had a magic gourd (葫芦), to help you get everything you want You may think twice and say "no" after you watch the planned Disney film "The Secret of the Magic Gourd"!It's the first project Disney will co-produce in China.

The meeting, the Sixth World Trade Organization (WTO) Ministerial Conference (世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议), will be held from December 13 to 18.Poor countries say that the WTO's international trade rules are not fair. The rules allow rich countries, like the US and those of the EU, to give money, or subsidies (津贴), to their farmers. With the subsidies, farmers are able to sell their crops at lower prices.As a result, world prices go down. Farmers in poor countries that don't have subsidies get less money and even lose their livelihoods.Since China joined the WTO in 2001, for example, lots of subsidized US cotton (棉花) has been sold in the country. Cotton prices fell from about 6 yuan to less than 3 yuan per kg in 2001 and 2002.Every year, rich countries support their farmers with more than US$300 billion. During the coming Hong Kong meeting, poorer nations will ask the rich nations to get rid of the subsidies.Zhang Xiangchen, a senior official from China's Ministry of Commerce (商务部), said China believes that rich countries should end their subsidies by 2010.1. What problem will the Hong Kong meeting try to solveA. Air pollution.B. International trade.C. Agricultural modernization.2. Who might the meeting benefit (有利于)A. Farmers in rich countries.B.

According to the official, China believes _____.A. rich countries will never stop supporting their farmersB. rich countries should stop giving money to their farmers in a few yearsC. rich countries don't need to stop supporting their farmers5. It can be inferred from the story that _____.A. farmers in poorer countries are losing money .B. international rules are never fair for poor countriesC. there's too much cotton in the world now(九)B C A B A(十)First published in 1888, "A Little Princess" is still an enduring (持久的) classic.

It comers 5,385,700 square kilometers, making up 56.4% of Chinese land and is home to 230 million people.

It also has large grassland, ice and snow resources waiting to be developed. It is home to many animals and plants, and it gives us with important medicine resources.The Chinese leaders have decided to develop the western area. Jiang Zemin said, "Without development of the western area, how can we build the whole country, and how can China become an economic power "Since 1949, when the People's Republic of China was founded, it is not the first time for China to develop its western part.

We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.It’s always a good idea to put on your seat belt when you’re ina car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateb oard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won’t.It will fly through the air, hit the gro und and break.Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won’t go flying, it wi ll stay safely on the skateboard.Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts i n 1849.Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn’t enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear the m.Most newer cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly —in less than one second —to keep the people inside safe.。

Then one Friday morning I took part in a three-day self-help program for teenagers. Whether you believe it or not, that weekend changed my life.About 100 other teenagers were there. During the first two days I met a lot of great people. I was glad because I made so many friends there.On Sunday, the leader did an interesting exercise called “Chocolate or Toys”. He asked a girl which she liked better, chocolate or toys. She chose chocolate. Then he asked her to choose again between chocolate and chocolate. Of course, she didn’t have a choice.This exercise told us that sometimes we don’t have a choice in life, and that sometimes we have to accept something, rather than complaining(抱怨).A girl stood up and started talking about her mom who was a drug addict(吸毒者) and how much she hated her mother.“I want a new mom,” she cried.“Unluckily, you can’t have one,” the leader replied. “You have to accept the mother that you have.”This hit me hard.

Old men spend hours fishing from the banks of the river. They don’t catch many fish, but they don’t mind. They enjoy just being by the river. Many people spend hours walking along the river or relaxing under the old trees. It’s so pleasant to buy some cheese, some wine and a long loaf(条) of French bread and then have a picnic here on a sunny day. Sometimes you see an unusual sight, like a man padding a kayak(小艇) down the river. A bridge crosses the river to the Latin Quarter, which is the home of many artists and writers.根据短文内容，正确（T），错误（F）。

There are new rules about what children may be given for these lunches. The reason for this is to give children healthier food. There are many foods that children aren't allowed to eat and they're only allowed to eat small amounts of fatty or sweet food. If you were at a school there, you might hear this conversation as you wait for your lunch.Josh: What's for lunch? I want chips!Dinner lady: No chips today. You've had chips twice this week already.Josh: Oh! OK, I'll have a chicken pie with gravy.Dinner lady: No, sorry. You've had a pastry dish(油酥食品) once this week already.Josh: Really?Oh, yes, on Monday. Well, what can I have? I'd like pasta and sauce.Dinner lady: No, sorry. Pasta counts as a pastry dish. So you can't have that, either.You've had two pastry dishes this week---a meat pie and a pizza. You can havevegetables or salad. The meatballs are nice today.Josh: All right. I'll have meatballs and steamed vegetables. I hope they're tasty.Dinner lady: They're good for you!Josh:I miss my chips. They're my favorite. I used to have them every day, before these new rules came in.Dinner lady: Well, that's why these rules were brought in. Too many children were eating junk food, especially chips. Children like chips, but they aren't a healthy choice.Josh: I'll have an apple juice with that, please.Dinner lady: OK, but its only 150 ml. You aren't allowed more than that as juice has sugar in it. The new rules encourage you to drink water. No soft drinks at all.Students cannot have more than two portions (份额)a week of food that has been deep-fired. They must have at least three different fruits and three different vegetables every week. Whole grains such as brown bread are to be given,instead of "white" grains.These rules are to teach healthy eating and to stop children putting on too much weight. This will make sure that more people are healthy in the future.1.The new rules about given lunch are brought in to_____________.A .give children healthier foodB .sell fruit and vegetablesC .help students save money D. help students study2.What did Josh have for lunch in the conversation?A .Chips.B .A chicken pie with gravyC .Meatballs and steamed vegetables.

How do you solve them? Tom, a middle school student, would take out his smart phone, open a special app (应用) and search the problem. Answers soon appear on the screen.Nowadays, many students do homework with the help of the special apps like Tom. "It's convenient. You don't have to go out or wait for a tutor (家庭教师) at home," Tom said. "You also learn by seeing how others work them out. It's very helpful and improves students' abilities." said John, another student. He said it was especially true for new types of homework.John's Chinese teacher often asks students to give speeches on great writers. When it comes to John's turn, he usually searches online, picks out certain stories and makes PPTS (演示文稿)."I've become skilled at finding information online and using Microsoft Office." John said.However, many people think this trend (趋势) also brings up problems. Some students just copy the answers online without thinking. They become lazy.Head teacher Mr. Wang in Tom and John's school thinks that knowing how to use the Internet is important. The key is to have good self-control. "No matter how difficult the problem is, think about it by yourself first. Remember not to depend on the Internet too much." the teacher said.

If you don't have confidence in your self-control, ask your parents for help."1.If the students have problems in their homework,how do they solve them?A.take out their computerB.wait for a tutorC.search a special appD.ask for their teacher2.What is not the advantage of the app?A.convenientB.helpfulC.quickD.true3.What progress does John make?A.He can search online.B.He can picks out certain storiesC.He can make PPTs.D.He can become skilled at finding information online4.Why is Mr.Wang against using the app?A.The students have good self-control.B.The students understand the reasons behind the answers.C.The students copy the answers online without thinking.D.The students think about the problem by themselves first.5.What can we learn from the last sentence?A.Mr. Wang advised students not to depend on the apps too much when doing homework.B.Mr.Wang advised students to keep away from the app.C.Mr. Wang advised parents to help students with their homework.D.Mr. Wang advised parents to increase students' confidence in self-control.【答案】CDDCA（八）English learners shouldn't think that mistakes are bad. One language expert, Alex Poole, advises that language learners should see mistakes as signs of progress. “The goal is to be able to communicate. If you make a mistake, you shouldn't worry about it unless it causes communication stop, ”Poole said.When you are speaking with a native(本国的)English speaker, there are two. kinds of things you can do to look for mistakes. The first is to look for misunderstanding. For example, perhaps a person gives an unusual response(反应)to something you said. You can then ask them directly what the problem is. The second works if you' know w a native speaker well. You can ask them about the kinds of things that could cause communication problems.When it comes to writing, Poole suggests thinking about mistakes in a different way. He advises English learners to keep a list of common mistakes and think about the main ideas first when they write something. Then, he suggests thinking about how to put those ideas in order. Instead of thinking about grammar, he suggests you think about the big picture of what you arewriting about. After writing something, you can go back and use your list to look for mistakes. I know that I'm never going to be perfect, and so that shouldn't bother(困扰)me. But I should look for things which cause communication problems.1. If an English learner makes a mistake, he shouldA.correct it immediatelye it to make progressC.worry about it all the timeD. stop communicating and think about it2.When native speakers give an unusual response to what you said,you shouldA.ask them what the problem isB.repeat your wordsC.say sorry and continue your talkingD.write down your mistakes3. Which way does Poole think is good for writing?A. Checking your mistakes on grammar.B. Forgetting your mistakes while writing.C. Keeping a list of your common mistakes.D.Talking about your mistakes with your friend.4.The underlined word picture in paragraph 3 probably meansA.照片B.插图C.主题大意D.框架提纲5.What does the writer want to tell us from the passage?A. We should look for our mistakes all the time.B. We're not perfect learners because of mistakes.C. Don't be afraid to make mistakes while learning a language.D.Care about people's unusual response when we make mistakes.【答案】BACDC（九）On September 1,1659, exactly eight years after I had first left England, I left Brazil to goto Guinea.

There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same. To choose which camp is best for you, first you must do a bit of research.Maybe you’ve never thought about it before, but every great summer camp has the same main goals---opportunity, challenge and growth.Opportunity means you are given a chance to do something special. It also makes you special because other kids don’t have the same opportunity. For example, if you are interested in writing, then you can choose to join a journalism(新闻工作) camp. You may have the opportunity of meeting famous journalists there.Challenge means you are given a task. You must finish the task and succeed in overcoming the challenge. Then you will have a sense of accomplishment(成就). For example, you could take a lifeguard(救生员) course at some summer camps. If you pass the exam, then you will receive a certificate(证书) to became a real lifeguard.This also leads to the third and most important goal of every great summer camp---personal growth. It doesn’t mean growing taller and stronger or more beautiful. It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know or believe you could do before. It also means becoming more confident in yourself.So in the future when choosing your next summer camp, remember to ask yourself: is it a special opportunity? Is it challenge? Will I grow?But what about friendship, fun and joy? These will all happen naturally when you have the right goals at summer camps!1. Which is the writer’s opinion?A.

九年级期末题型突破13 阅读理解（C篇）阅读单选（C篇）一Smile Train is a charity (慈善团体) that helps the millions of children around the world, who suffer from a facial defect (缺陷). The defect happens when a baby’s top lip or mouth doesn’t form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these babies. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with it, new hope and a new beginning.Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed of them or cannot afford the operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to perform the operations.A Smile Train doctor from the UK said, “Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train. Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising. One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted (收养) by a passenger. This lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital. I did the operation and gave hope to the family. Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors. In this way we make sure that these operations will always be available.”1．Smile Train is a charity which ______.A．provides food and medical care for poor childrenB．raises money for all the doctors working in the UKC．offers free medical help to children with the facial defect.D．gives children without parents new hope and a new beginning.2．The underlined word “abandoned” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _____.

ASwimming and English LearningCan you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I'm afraid you'll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It's the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn't matter. Just be relaxed, try to catch every word.Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He's afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don’t be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important when there’s nobody to talk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It's interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make.Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we’re interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. Thi s is the most important.Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines.

What makes learning a new language so easy for some and so difficult for others?We each have our own preferred way of learning as a result of our cultural and educational backgrounds and our personalities.Experts have identified different learning styles.Visual Learners usually enjoy reading and prefer to see an image of the words they arelearning.They like looking at pictures and flash cards.Auditory Learners,on the other hand,prefer to learn by listening.They enjoy conversations and talking to others.They don’t need to see words written down.One study revealed that Japanese students tend to be Visual Learners,while English-speaking Americans,prefer the auditory learning style.Some people like to learn by using their hands to touch objects,while others like to move around and need frequent breaks from sitting at a desk.There are Analytical Learners,meaning they enjoy understanding how the language works.They love studying grammar rules and like to focus on details,whereas Global Learners are more interested in communicating their ideas and are not worried about whether what they say is grammatically correct.In spoken English,the Japanese tend to be Reflective Learners.They think carefully before they speak to ensure their message is accurate.They do not make so many mistakes but their communication is slower.European learners tend to be more Impulsive Learners.They speak more fluently and worry about how well they are communicating rather than how many mistakes they are making.So,to do well in a language,you should identify your style and try to find a class that will teach you the way you want to learn.For example,if you are a Reflective Learner,you may not do so well in a purely conversational class and as an Auditory Learner,you probably don’t want to do so much reading.In fact if you are an Auditory Learner,you are probably not enjoying yourself right now!( )16.The passage mainly talks about .A.the difficult learning styles of some peopleB.the easy learning ways of other peopleC.the different learning styles of the JapaneseD.the different learning methods of all the people( )17.Which of the following phrases isn’t connected with the learning style?A.The way people are taught to learn a language.B.The place where people are from.C.The size of people.D.The kind of person people are.( )18.Visual Learners like to .A.see thingsB.touch thingsC.hear thingsD.do things( )19.Auditory Learners like to .A.hear thingsB.buy thingsC.destroy thingsD.paint things( )20.Analytical Learners .A.are similar to Global LearnersB.never worry about mistakesC.love to study detailsD.do well in conversationEListening is an important part of learning English.

A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly, correctly and without thinking. Educators call it “automaticity(自动性)”.A child learns to read by sounding the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase(短语). With automaticity, he doesn't have to think about the meaning of words, so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.It can begin as early as the first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others, but also got better results in exams.According to Rossman, the key to automaticity is the amount(数量) of time a child spends reading, not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home.You can test yourself by reading something new that is suitable (适合)for your level. If you read aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, you need more practice.( )26.“Reading is the key to school success” means that reading.A.helps school develop fasterB.is a key to a successful schoolC.helps students go to a key schoolD.can improve students' learning results( )27.Children with “automaticity” can read faster because they.A.know how to read the wordsB.do not have to think while readingC.read by themselves without any helpD.pay attention to the meaning of the text ( )28.Rossman tells that any child who will possibly be an automatic reader.A.seldom turns off TVB.reads books by the word quicklyC.spends about an hour reading every dayD.gets the same grades as others in exams ( )29.T he underlined word “stumbles” in the passage means “”in Chinese.A.结结巴巴地读B.全神贯注地读C.心不在焉地读D.声情并茂地读( )30.The best title for the passage is“”.A.IQ Is the Key to the Automaticity Is Bad for Children's ReadingC.Automaticity Depends on PracticeD.Automatic Readers Will Be SuccessfulUnit 1 阅读理解专练2022—2023人教版英语九年级参考答案第一节短文理解。

The medicine that should be put into the pillow should be carefully chosen according to one's illness.Pillows filled with the skins of beans, seeds, dried flowers and wheat are good for the eyesight and keeping the mind clear, since their smell helps one go to sleep. Furthermore, in South China, a strange pillow has long been popular during hot seasons. Peasants collectsilk-worm excrement(排泄物) and fill pillows with it.

Others say if you own lots of money and success, you will be happy. However, money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. A famous a Greek thinker, Aristotle, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” That’s to say,we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future.

You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as readin g a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others.Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others.

According to the Ministry of Education, the introduction of the rule is a way of making sure of the safety, nutrition and health levels of school food.School leaders from kindergartens to high schools should get together with students during school meals. The plan will guide them to pay more attention to food safety at school.This move came after a list of school food safety problems in the past few years.

The new law introduced by Michelle Obama has pushedschools to make low-calorie(卡路里) menus.

In some films, they are stronger, faster and cleverer than people.In real life, robots are mainly used in factories. They do some dangerous and difficult jobs for humans.Robots also help disabled people, for example, blind people. Today may blind people have guide dogs to help them. In the future, guide dogs might be robot dogs.One kind of robot guide dog has wheels. It moves in front of the owner. It is very clever. It knows the speed of its owner's walk. The owner wears a special belt. This belt sends instruction to the owner from the dog, such as "Stop here", "Turn left" or "Turn right".In the United States, another kind of robot helps disabled people to take care of themselves in their daily life. The robot hears the sound of its owner's voice. It follows instructions such as "Turn the page" or "Make a cup of coffee"Robots are also used in American hospitals. They can do simple jobs.

The Chinese people are proud of him.He passed away on October 31, 2009 at the age of 98, but all the Chinese will remember him forever. His devotion to his country was expressed in his saying, “My career is in China, my success is in China and my destination is in China！” When someone said he could make much more money if he stayed in the United States, he laughed and said, “My family name is Qian, but I don't like qian”.

The next day, I wrote more thank ­you notes and the same feeling of happiness hit me again. I suddenly had the idea:Why not keep on doing this for every day of the year?To keep on task, I decided to pick out a different theme for each month. January was charity. February would be neighbors, I decided. And I thought of a number of names right away: the owner of our local bookstore, who let me and my little son in before the store opened and offered to play his favorite songs; our babysitter, who dropped off a bag of old board games for our kids to play; ...While writing the notes, I realized how often I had spent my time on the phone moving from app to app appreciating(欣赏) other people's lives. Writing thank­you notes allowed me the time to do something different, paying more attention to my own life.In the following months, I wrote to my friends, doctors, teachers and parenting role models. In July, m y “food” month, I wrote to Julie, who used to cook at my favorite restaurant. It went like this：Dear Julie，I've been finding myself missing you lately. Thank you for hosting me and cooking beautiful and thoughtful food. Jake and I will never forget when you sent out biscuits shaped into the number VI for our sixth anniversary(周年纪念日). We talk about it every year.Thank you. We miss you.Love，GinaI was happy to receive a note back from her. Julie replied, “I don't think I've ever received such a touching letter before. I'm going through a hard time right now, and this helps.”On December 31, I wrote my last card—to Jake, my husband, and our two kids. And I took a picture of us, so I could remember the feeling welling up inside me.

Will robots control our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen in 10—30 years from now, according to the BBC.Bionic(仿生的) eyesThey are no longer something only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to see things clearly—by wearing bionic eyes.A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see”the environment and send information to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes. A bionic eye with very clear pictures could be just in a few years away.Digital moneyWe used to pay with cash for everything we bought. Now when we use a Wechat Pay or Alipay to shop, money is spent without us seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. People only need to take a mobile phone wherever they go. Using these ways is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.It's reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be next.Self­driving carsUnlike a human driver, a self­driving car won't be influenced by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors(探测器) and cameras on the car would allow it to follow the rules of the road and keep a safe space from other cars. This would greatly make the number of road accidents smaller. You could even take a rest while the car drives itself. In the future, driverless cars would be widely accepted.(D)16.Which of the following payments is not mentioned in this passage?A．Cash. B．Wechat Pay.C．Alipay. D．Credit card.(A)17.Bionic eyes send information to the ________.A．mind B．cameraC．computer D．heart(C)18.From the report, we can learn some information about ________.A．industry and farmingB．traffic and journeyC．science and technologyD．culture and art(B)19.This passage tells us that ________.A．bionic eyes only appear in the science fiction filmsB．the blind wearing bionic eyes may see clearly in the futureC．self­driving cars will be influenced by something outsideD．there will be no accident at all if self­driving cars are used(A)20.We can infer(推断) that ________ from the passage.A．there would be a number of self­driving cars on the roadB．robots would control the worldC．the blind could use glasses to see things aroundD．we would live a hard life with digital money第二组A(2020山东济宁中考改编)ContentsIntroduction1Chinese Calendar3Emperors8Great Inventions15Art19Great Wall24Paper Money31Society42Trade60Yongle, the third emperor of China's Ming Dynasty (1368－1644), stayed in power for 22 years.

Running through the heart of London, there are also many galleries, markets, shops and activities to keep you busy along its banks. You will also see a strange round building. It looks very old and very different from all the others. This is Shakespeare's Globe Theatre(莎士比亚环球剧场)．The Globe Theatre was first built here in 1599. William Shakespeare was one of the most famous writers that ever lived. His plays were performed in the theatre for many years. However, in 1613, a fire broke out during a performance. The theatre was destroyed(毁坏), but the second was built the following year. It remained a theatre until 1644, and then it was pulled down to build houses. The modern(and also the third) Globe Theatre was completed in 1997, over 350 years later. This was done to honor Shakespeare, the most famous English writer. To this day, his many plays are performed there daily. He wrote around thirty­eight plays. They are comedies(funny stories), histories(about historical events and people), and tragedies(serious and sad stories). People come from all over the world to watch them at the Globe Theatre. They are performed in exactly the same way as they were hundreds of years ago.The building is round and made mostly of wood. There are simple seats on three different levels all around the sides.

You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he or she lives. So remember to be polite.The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come “around 3：00”， that means you can arrive a little bit after 3：00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend's house. This could be a box of chocolates for you to share, or maybe a CD that you can enjoy together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his or her house.When you visit your friend's house, you may also meet his or her parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. and Mrs. Smith. This will show them more respect(尊重) and then they may tell you to call them by their first names.

It is the fifth generation(代) of mobile network technology. These new networks are coming.China just issued commercial licenses(发放商用牌照) for 5G on June 6, 2019.This means that China's telecom companies will be able to offer 5G networks for mobilephone users.Each mobile network generation is faster and more powerful than the one before it. 1G let us talk to each other. 2G let us send messages. 3G gave us data(数据) and the Internet. And 4G made all of these things faster. What's special about 5G?5G has a very short delay between sending and receiving information. Now, 4G takes about 100 to 200 milliseconds(毫秒) to send and receive data. But 5G will get it down to 1 millisecond or less—this is almost real­time.This big change will not only make our mobile Internet faster, but also deeply change our lives. Read on to find out how.5G＋entertainment(娱乐)5G networks are about 100 times faster than 4G. This means you can download a movie in seconds using 5G.Also, virtual reality(VR)games will become more popular with 5G. The short delay of 5G will make the games feel even more real.5G＋transport5G will also bring us safer self­driving cars. These cars can send signals(信号) to each other. They also talk to traffic lights and road sensors(传感器). 5G will allow cars to react(反应) even faster than human drivers.5G＋smart homes5G also makes the Internet of things possible. Internet of things is a large network that connects everything to the Internet.

I was talking but he was looking over at someone.He walked over to a young girl who was crying. As he talked to her, I could see from his body language that he was trying to calm(使平静) her down. When I joined them, I realized that she had been homeless for some time. She told Shane that all she wanted was to go to her sister's house in another city.Some people would have handed her some money, wished her lunch or maybe allowed her to make a call. Shane did much more. He said, “Kelly, I can't leave her here like this. Sometimes people need someone not only to help them but to believe they're telling the truth.”It was a bit cold, so we had an idea to take her home.

The UN started the day in 1979.It is used to remind people not to waste food and to ask people to fight hunger(饥饿)．A big number of people in the world still don't have enough food to eat. Food shortage(匮乏) is a big problem in the world. Right now, there are more than 1，000 million hungry people in the world according to the UN. Many children go to sleep with hunger, and 15 million of them die because of hunger each year.There are several reasons why there are food shortages. First, there have been more droughts(干旱) and floods recently. Also, a growing population makes feeding everyone more difficult.Another big reason is food waste. Most people don't realize how much food they throw away every day. On average(平均), a person throws away 50 kilos of food every year. According to the UN, more than 1/3 of all food produced in the world goes to waste each year. The amount(数量) of food wasted in Europe can feed 200 million people, and the food wasted in Latin America can feed 300 million a year.So think twice next time you want to throw away food. If you try to avoid wasting food, you could save some food and help hungry children. Only order as much food as you can eat at a restaurant. If you can't eat all you order, take the rest home. Don't be too picky about food so that you don't leave any on your plate. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don't buy or cook too much.(D)6.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to(指代)?A．Food shortage. B．The UN.C．The year 1979.

It's a state of well-being, a pleasant or satisfying experience. Happiness is important to everyone. Happiness is important to everyone. Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Here are some tips about the discovering happiness in your life.Allow yourself to be human. When we accept emotions — such as fear, sadness, or nervousness — as natural, we are more likely to overcome them. Refusing our emotions, whether positive or negative, leads to sadness and unhappiness.Happiness mostly depends on our understanding towards the outside world, not on how much money we have. Mostly, our level of well-being is decided by what we choose to focus on and by our understanding of the things that happened. For example, do we see failure as the mother of success, or do we see it as a chance of learning?Simplify! We are, generally, too busy, trying to do more and more activities in less and less time. Yet sometimes the more we expect, the more we will lose. Sometimes we even lose our happiness by trying to do too much.Remember the mind-body connection. What we do — or don't do — with our bodies influences our mind. Regular exercise, enough sleep, and healthy eating habits lead to both physical and mental health.1.Do most people know how to find happiness?2.How many tips for happiness are talked about in this passage?3.What does happiness mostly depend on?4.How do we sometimes lose our happiness?5.What is the passage mainly about?答案：1.No./ No, they don't.2.4 / Four.3.Our understanding towards the outside world.4.Sometimes we even lose our happiness by trying to do too much.5.What happiness is and some tips about the discovering happiness in our life.（十五）What makes people happier: money, having happy friends or having happy neighbors?

And the smaller the distance between friends, the larger the effect they had on each other's happiness.For example, a person was 20% more likely to feel happy if a friend who lived within one and a half kilometers. Having a happy neighbor who lived next door increased the chance of being happy by 34%. The effects of friends' happiness lasted for up to a year.The scientists found that sadness also spread among friends, but not as much as happiness.People who took three degrees out of separation still had an effect on a person's happiness. Three degrees of distance meant the friend of a friend of a friend.The study showed that having an extra five thousand dollars increased the person's chance of becoming happier by about 2%. But the scientists found that the influenceof a friend of a friend of a friend could be greater than that. Another finding was that people who were married or worked together didn't have as much of an effect on happiness as friends did.1.Having a happy friend who lives within one and a half kilometers increases the chance of being happy by _____.A.45%B.50%C.34%D.20%2.The effects of happiness from friends _____.A.have a chance of 20% to make you happyB.are usually within 1.5 kmC.have a chance of 34% to make you happyD.can last for about a year3.What does the underlined word "separation" mean in the passage?A.间隔B.方向C.位置D.关系4.Which of the following has the greatest effect on happiness according to the passage?A.Money.B.The friend of a friend.C.Happy friends who live in another city.D.Happy neighbors.5.What's the text mainly about?A.Who's the happier?B.What's happiness?C.What makes people happier?D.How to make people happy?答案：DDADC(十六）On September 13th, I woke up in the best mood.

I was an unlucky nurse who had to work on such a beautiful festival. When I was complaining (抱怨) about it, three people appeared at my desk—a tired woman and her two children, a son and a daughter."Are you all sick?" I asked doubtfully because they seemed all right."Yes," the woman answered weakly and lowered her head.But when they started to present their problems, things became unclear. The daughter had a fever, but her temperature was OK. The son had an earache, but he couldn't tell me which ear hurt. It seemed that the mother was pretending (假装) to cough.Something was wrong. But I only explained that it might take a while before a doctor could meet them. "Take your time, please," said the mother. I checked their charts—no address. All of a sudden I knew they were homeless while the hospital was warm.The family huddled (蜷缩) together under the Christmas tree, smiling and talking with each other sweetly. Quietly, I went back to the nurses' station and told them what happened in the waiting room. It was just like God sending us a gift on this Christmas night. The nurses' station suddenly came back to life. All the nurses went into action for "a Christmas emergency (急诊)".。
