中考英语阅读天天练21.The law says that women should have the chance of doing the same jobs as men and earn the same as them.The reality is very different. Women lose because, 25 years after the Equal Pay Act, many of them still get paid less than men.They lose because they do lower-paid jobs which men just won’t consider. And they lose they are the ones who interrupt a career to have children.All this is reported in an independent study ordered by the Government’s women’s unite.The biggest problem isn’t equa l pay in work places such as factories. It is a sort of work women do.Make a list of low-paid of jobs_ then consider who does them.Try nurses, secretaries, cleaner, clerks, teachers in primary schools, dinner ladies, and child care helpers. Not a lot of men among that group, are there?Yet some of those jobs are really important. Surely no one would deny that about nurses and teachers, for a start.So why do we reward the people who do them so poorly? There can be only one answer--- because they are women.This is not going to be put right overnight. But the Government, which employs a lot of them,, and other bosses have to make a start.It is disgraceful(可耻的) that we have gone into the 21st Century still treating women like second-class citizens.1.Women should have the chance of doing the same jobs and be paid equally as men ____.A. after 25 yearsB. according to the lawC. as a result of the Equal Pay ActD. because women are as strong as men2.We can learn from the text what the problem really matters is ____.A. that the women interrupt a career to have childrenB. what sort of work women doC. because they are womenD. what an unfair pay women get in workplaces.3.Which of the following best describes the writer’s idea?A. Women should get equal pay for equal work to that of men.B. Women should strengthen加强themselves.C. The Government ought to protect women against getting paid less than men.D. Some of the jobs that women do are of great importance.4.When the writer says “This is not going to be put right overnight”, he means ____.A. we must solve the problem very quickly.B. there is not completely fair thing all over the world.C. we need a long time to change the unfair reality.D. the problem that women lose will be solved soon.5.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?A. Work to give women a fair pay deal.B. Time to change the situation.C. Equal work, equal pay.D. Should women be treated like second-class citizens?2. The report came to the British on May 21,1949. The German battleship Bismarck, the most powerful warship(战舰) in the world, was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean. Her task: to destroy the ships supplies from the United States to war-torn England.The British had feared such a task. No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower. The Bismarck had eight 15-inch guns and 81 small guns. She could move at 30 nautical(海上的) miles an hour. She was believed to be unsinkable.However, the British had to sink her. They sent out a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck. On May 24, the Hood found the Bismarck.It was a meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see. His orderswere to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies, but to stay away from a fight with British warships.The battle didn’t last long. The Bismarck’s first torpedo(鱼雷) hit the Hood, which went down taking all but three of her 4,419 men with her.But in the fight, the Bismarck was slightly damaged. Her commander decided to run for repairs to France, which had at that time been taken by the speed and the heavy fog, they lost sight of her.For two days, every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismarck, but with no success. Finally, she was sighted by a plane from the air. The Bismarck was hit.On the morning of May 27, the last battle was fought. Four British ships fired on the Bismarck, and she was finally sunk.1.The Bismarck sailed into the Atlantic Ocean ____.A. to sink the HoodB. to gain control of FranceC. to cut off American supplies to BritainD. to stop British warships reaching Germany2. Many people believed that the Bismarck could not be defeated because she ____.A. was fast and powerfulB. had more men on boardC. was under Luetjens’ commandD. had bigger guns than other ships3. We learn from the text that on 24 of May ____.A. the British on the battle against the BismarckB. the Bismarck won the battle against the BritishC. the British gunfire damaged the Bismarck seriouslyD. the Bismarck succeeded in keeping away from the British4. Luetjens tried to sail to France in order to ____.A. have the ship repairedB. join the other GermansC. get help from the FrenchD. get away from the British5. Which of the following is the immediate cause of the sinking of the Bismarck?A. The British air strikes.B. The damage done by the Hood.C. Gunfire from the British warships.D. Luetjens’ decision to run for France.3. Do animals have a culture? What do we mean by “culture?” Lately social scientists have begun to ask if culture is found just in humans, or if some animals have a culture too. When we speak of culture, we mean a way of life a group of people have in common. Culture includes the beliefs and attitudes we learn. It is the patterns of behavior that help people to live together. It is also the patterns of behavior that make one group of people different from another group.Our culture lets us make up for having lost out strength, claws, long teeth, and other defenses. Instead we use tools, cooperate with one another, and communicate with language. But these aspects of human behavior, or “culture,” can also be found in the lives of certain animals. Animals can make tools, for example. We used to think that the ability to use tools was the dividing line between human beings and other animals. Lately, however, we have found that this is not the case. Chimpanzees(非洲小猩猩) can not only use tools but actually make tools themselves. Animals can also share knowledge with each other and use their own language to communicate. So it may be important for us to know that the line dividing us from animals is not as clear as we used to think.1.Choose the statement that best expresses the main idea.____.A. A chimpanzee can learn to use sign language to make sentencesB. Other animals can invent toolsC. Knowledge and communication are no longer signs of only human behaviorD. The line dividing human culture from animal culture is not as clear as we might think2. “Culture” refers to ____.A. book language of behavior we learnB. the patterns of behavior we learnC. traditional ideasD. people’s good habits3. A chimpanzee’s use of tools means ____.A. animals are the same as human beingsB. animals can be as clever as human beingsC. the dividing line between culture and animal culture no longer existsD. animals may have a culture like our own4. Which of the following statement is true?____.A. The ability to use language separates human beingsB. We can be certain that animals have a culture tooC. Social scientists doubt if animals have a culture tooD. Some traditional ideas about the difference between human beings and animals may be wrong5.The first sentence of the second paragraph “Our culture lets 7us make up for having lost our strength, claws, long teeth, and other defenses “ means ____.A. as a result of our culture, we have lost our strength, claws, long teeth, and other defensesB. our culture has enabled us even better though we have lost our strength, claws, long teeth, and other defensesC. our culture has brought back to us strength, claws, long teeth, and other defenses that we have lostD.our culture asks that we lose our strength, claws, long teeth, and other defenses which animals still have。

AA long time ago, there lived a wise man named Zun-Nun in Egypt. A young man came to visit him and asked, “Teacher, why do you dress in 1 a way?

The man was enjoying the new scenery(风景), when he suddenly remembered dying, and realized that the dog beside him had been dead for years, as had his horse. He wondered what was happening, and where the road was leading them.After a while, they saw a tall arch topped by golden letter "H" and a gate in the arch that looked like mother-of-pearl. The street that led to the gate looked like gold.He rode toward the gate and saw a man at a desk. Thirsty and tired out by his journey, he called out, "Excuse me, where are we?""This is Heaven, sir," the man answered."Wow! Would you happen to have some water?" the cowboy asked."Of course, sir. Come right in, and I'll have some ice water for you.""Can I bring my partners, too?""I'm sorry, sir, but we don't accept pets."The cowboy thought for a moment, then turned back to the road and continued riding, his dog running by his side.After another long ride, he came to a dirt road leading through a gate that looked as if it had never been closed. As he went closer to the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree and reading a book. "Excuse me," he called to the man. "Do you have any water?" "Sure, there's a pump right over there. Help yourself.""How about my friends here?" the cowboy pointed at the dog and his horse."Of course! They look thirsty, too," said the man.The three went through the gate, and sure enough, there was an old-fashioned hand pump with buckets(水桶)beside it. The cowboy took a long drink, as did his horse and dog. "What do you call this place?" the cowboy asked the man who was still standing by the tree. "This is Heaven." he answered."That's strange," the traveler said. "The man down the road said that was Heaven, too." "Oh, you mean the place with the shinning, gold street and fake pearly gates? That's Hell." "Doesn't it make you angry when they use your name like that?""Not at all.

If you live in the US and don't understand the sport, you can easily feel left out. Here are some tips to help you go from outsider to super fan.Pick a team to root forThere are 32 NFL teams. Cheering for your hometown team is always a possibility. But if youdon't have a team in your city, you can hop on another team's bandwagon(搭上另一队的顺风车). Although there are different opinions, you can feel the satisfaction of winning almost any given week this way. If you still cannot decide, just pick a team with a cool logo or uniform!Learn the basic rulesThere are two teams, each with 11 players on the field. The team on offense(进攻)aims to run with the ball to the competing team's end zone for a touchdown(触地得分)or kick the ball through the other team's goalposts for a field goal. The team on defense(防守)aims to stop these things from happening or take control of the ball for themselves. The team with the most points at the end wins.Get into the dramaIt's exciting to see powerful players moving the ball forward on offense—and equally powerful defensive players trying to stop them from getting points. The game sometimes causes serious damage to players' brains. "As long as no one gets terribly injured, the hitting is the best part," said Calvin White, a 16-year-old from New York.Watch the Super BowlThe Super Bowl is the annual championship game of the NFL. Nearly 110 million viewers will watch this game on TV. Even non-fans don't want to miss the stars show. It's not only a treat for US football fans, but also a global game.What things do football players have to wear?American football is a dangerous sport. Players tackle each other to get the ball.

But you might not know that sand is also auseful resource (资源).Sand is the second most-used resource in the world afterwater, the BBC reported. However, the UN said that sand isnot limitless and that we might be running out of it.Sand is made up of very small pieces of rock, soil and minerals (矿物质). It can take tens of thousands of years toform (形成). But now we are using sand more quickly than itis being formed.According to the BBC, we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year to build houses, roads andother things. That’s enough to build a 20-meter-high by20-meter-wide wall around the equator (赤道) every year.People also put sand in the sea to make new islands. Singapore, for example, is now 20 percent bigger than itwas in 1965. Palm islands are three large man-made islandsin Dubai, United Arab Emirates. They took 94 million cubicmeters of sand to build.If people keep using this much sand, it will run out in manyplaces. For example, Vietnam may run out of construction(建造) sand by 2020.Since people need so much sand, they are trying to mine(开采) more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may cause beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also, this mayaffect the habitats (栖息地) of many plants and animals.1.
