What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic control. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality.Three-dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic.They build the object layer by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop, the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive.So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.(1)What is the passage mainly about?A. Environmental protection.B. The world of tomorrow.C. Advantages of technology.(2)What do we learn from the passage?A. Some people think technology development may bring new problemsB. 3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap.C. The flying cars won't bring air traffic jam even when they become popular.(3)What is the correct structure of the passage? (P1=Paragraph1)A. B. C.(4)What does the underlined word "they" refer to?A. Car companies.B. 3D print.C. Body parts.(5)We can infer that the writer ________ about the future life with technology.A. doesn't careB. feels hopefulC. feels disappointed2.阅读材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

What subject do you worry about the most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can't sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful(压力大的)."For people who are worried about math, posture (姿势)makes a big difference," Erik Paper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That's right – sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math exam while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的)posture, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.Slumping over is a defensive(戒备的) posture. It can bring about bad memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly, Paper said.Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit(受益)from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult, Science Daily reported.Good posture isn't just helpful for taking math exams. Sportspeople, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more certain and focus better.(1)What posture can make people feel less stressed during math exams?A. Sitting up straight.B. Hanging your head.C. Lying on your back.D. Raising one hand.(2)What did the scientists ask the college students to do during the test?A. To do sit-ups.B. To count numbers.C. To think carefully.D. To sit in different postures.(3)How many students in the test benefited from the better posture?A. All the 125 students.B. Less than half of them.C. 56 percent of them.D. None of the students.(4)The fourth paragraph is written to explain .A. why slumping over makes exams harder to doB. why slumping over is bad for one's healthC. why some people slump over during examsD. why people are nervous during math exams(5)Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Slump over to Take ExamsB. Sit up to Do MathC. Better Posture for Nervous StudentsD. Good Advice for Better Exams【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)C(4)A(5)B【解析】【分析】本文介绍姿势不仅有助于参加数学考试。

精选初中九年级英语阅读理解专项练习1、阅读与表达(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)阅读下面短文,在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每空一词)Life is short. So live it to the fullest! Love whatever you have to do, thus you will always be able to do what you love and to love what you do.Live each day as if it’s your last! Today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present. Be present to enjoy the moment. Each day is a fresh start with chances just waiting to be explored, so what are waiting for?Accept everyone. Enjoy the company(陪伴) of others and show interest in their goodness. Don’t judge(评判) others and treat others as you would like to be treated.Be confident. Focus on(集中) good thoughts and good things will happen. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Blaming yourself won’t help anything. Take action to find the cause of any bad thoughts (fear, anger, doubt, hate…). Cancel out(消除) each one with a good thought:“I am brave!”“I know I can do it!”“I forgive and I do not hate!” You may not be feeling your best at the moment, but you will feel better when you think about good things.Enjoy the environment. Take a break sometimes and go for a walk. Take a fresh look at the clouds, the colours of the sky at sunrise and sunset. Look at the plants, trees and how they move when the wind blows. Look at water how it shakes. This exercise will clear off the dead memories that kill the joy of living.Besides, make a list of everything you’ve dreamed of doing and then make it happen. Dreams aren’t achieved by sitting around and waiting. They are achieved by getting up and working for them! Work hard and make your dreams come true. Work hard and play harder! You can always realize your dreams. If you really want something, find a way to achieve it!Be YOU bravely. Don’t be a shy person! You are who you are! Forget what others think and live your life! Do what you want because life is what you make it, and your life is yours! Nobodyelse is going to live your life, so it’s up to you.阅读表达. chances . causes enjoy realize/achieve courage2.任务型阅读(每题1分,共5分)There are many things you can do to keep friendship strong forever.Trust is very important in keeping any relationship strong and long lasting. If you trust the person whom you have a good relationship with and the other person also trust you in the same way, then you two have a good relationship.You can remember important dates of your friends such as their birthdays and wish them or give gifts to them on this special days. Many people say that money is the most important thing to consider, but remember friendship is not about money. You can find something small and inexpensive for their gifts or send online cards.A friend should also always help others even when it is not very convenient. So have a helping hand ready at all times.Sometimes distance makes relationships even closer. So, if you are far from your friends, there are many ways you can remain in contact. You can use email, chat programs, and you can also write a blog and share your daily life activities with your friends.If there is anything that makes you happy, share it with your friends. Listen to their thoughts as well. If they have achieved something noticeable, congratulate them and celebrate with them.I have seen good friendships and when there is unhealthy competition between two friends. Though this may not happen in many cases, it is better to keep this idea in mind since it may happen to you.As far as I have seen and experienced, it will be better not to either lend to or borrow money from your good friend. Of course, we have to do this with friends.

Though you may have difficulty realizing it, there are endless steps you can take to experience new things, gain knowledge, and appreciate (欣赏) what you already have.Learn to forgive others.If you often hate other people around you, then you won’t live a wonderful life. So learn to move forward and accept nobody is perfect and that everyone makes mistakes. If someone has really hurt you and feel it difficult to accept that person’s apology (道歉), then be honest about it. Don’t pretend (假装) that you’re okay and then go on complaining. This won’t get you very far.Volunteer to help others. It will not only be good for the people around you, but also make you able to connect with different people who can influence your life just as positively as you can influence theirs. You can work in a homeless shelter or help do the cleaning in your neighborhood.Try to be less wasteful. Trying to be not wasteful can help you become thankful and really appreciate the world around you more. You can use paper instead of plastic whenever you can. Don’t use too many products that can’t be used again. Go to somewhere on foot or by bike instead of driving. All these ideas can make you less wasteful.Get along well with your friends and family.No matter how busy you are, you should develop a habit of spending time with your loved ones and letting them know how much they mean to you. You can write thank-you cards to your friends and family members or call up you parents or grandparents regularly.
