中考英语时事阅读第18期Passage 1：thinking of lifeAs the new coronavirus wreaks havoc worldwide, I, like thousands of millions of others –have been stuck at home. Lacking exercise as you can see, I’ve put on a few pounds, but I’ve also had the opportunity to think of several things, so today I’d like to share with you one thing for life.The disease has shown us is how fragile and fleeting life is. As the number of coronavirus cases has shot up, there’s been widespread fear of suffering and of death, however we also become aware that fear is as integral to life as joy, and within a single touch, illness can extinguish life，but next to the fire of life，fear is mere specks of ash.Doctors and nurses are all hardy souls who battle to save and protect life. In Wuhan the illness is not their only obstacle and not the only thing they have to fight with. When all the transport has been shut down, going to work is a major difficulty. But it is often in this time of hardship when solutions miraculously appear and human intentions are at their best.When a nurse is walking alone in the street to get to work in the morning, a taxi driver opens th e door for her voluntarily and refuses to get paid. Then there’s a cafe chain that delivers free drinks to the medical staff absolutely free of charge. In these moments, please don’t think of these small acts as products of happenstance or of divine intervention. Behind them lie important human qualities- resilience, persistence,trust and hope. Traits without which, human life as we know it simply could not continue.A few weeks ago President Xi Jinping exhorted us all to join in the fight against Covid-19, and he reminded us the importance to preserve and protect the life.It's as if our common goodwill has been turned into a huge machine producing the best things to encourage us all to pull through this together.However, despite our efforts, there are souls who unfortunately have to leave this world, but we have to remember their contributions. Among them was doctor Li Wenliang, who made huge sacrifices in saving others’ lives. Another was Ai Dong, a policeman who is fighting in the hectic front lines but died of a cerebral hemorrhage. Another was Xu Peng, a transporter trying to put medical equipment to Wuhan while unfortunately died of a traffic accident. In his last conversations, he reminded his son that “I’m off to battle the virus monsters.” Being d eath or living, the common human subject-life is always valuable and for that value to appear we have to master our inner motivation, never stop believing and trust ourselves and others.In this season I believed these grounds are covered and layered with pink, meadows of brilliant cherry blossoms. I believe this color emmited from this flower will always carry Wuhan- the city and souls with it forward.1：What did the disease tell us in author‘s opinion？2：Is the illness their only obstacle for doctors and nurses in Wuhan ？3：What‘s the important human qualities- resilience from para 3？4：what happened on “Xu Peng”during the Covid-19？参考答案：1：The disease has shown us is how fragile and fleeting life is2：No，it isn’t3：persistence, trust and hope.4：a transporter trying to put medical equipment to Wuhan while unfortunately died of a traffic accident.Passage 2：Life goes on in locked-down city of WuhanIt has been over two months the lockdown (封锁) of Wuhan. This might be the （long）holiday ever for the children in the city. But they have found new ways to make staying at home an interesting and （meaning） time. How do they spend their time? Are there any memorable (值得纪念的) moments in their lives? Let’s take a look!What is a ‘lockdown’?Wuhan has been on lockdown since Jan 23. No flights, trains or （bus）can leave or enter the city. People in Wuhan cannot take public transportation (公共交通）. Most of them cannot drive, . They have to stay at home.‘My mom is fighting the virus.I’m proud of her!’Since the lockdown, I’ve moved in with my grandparents. This is because my mom is a doctor. Her job is to intubate (给……插管) patients. When doing this, the virus might jump from the patients to her. It’s very （danger）. For my safety (安全), she asked me to stay at my grandparents’ house. We cannot meet until she beats the virus.When my mom is not here with me, I look myself. I always get up at 8 am. Then I begin to study by （me）I also play sports every day at home. Mom and I often have video calls on WeChat. Sometimes I see her wearing heavy protective suit . She must be tired, but she is saving people. I’m very p of her!My grandparents do not know how to shop online. But many volunteers (志愿者) come to help us. They send food and other goods to us. One day, I woke up at 6 in the morning. I （look）down through the window and saw them carrying big boxes. They work so hard!‘We pass on love to one another.’During this long holiday, I couldn’t go to school, so I took many online classes. My teacher is a （志愿者）from Peking University. I have learned a lot from him. An idea came into my mind: there are many students like me in Wuhan. They may also need my help. So I joined a (项目) called Chinese America Citizens Alliance (中美公民联盟) and became a volunteer. My job is to teach Englishfor grade 4 students online every week. In my class, I a the students’ questions, and I also teach them some new （知识）Helping people makes me happy.‘I’m always with you.’I’m a student from Wuhan. But this Spring Festival, I went to Jiangsu province to visit my grandparents.My friends and I talk about the virus in a QQ group. We share funny pictures and jokes. In this way, we encourage each other.On Jan 27, some people in Wuhan sang from their windows to cheer themselves up. I was (感动) by the news. So I drew a cartoon about it. I want to let more people know about our (英雄的) city.I also played the guzheng (古筝) for patients in Wuhan. I played Blue and White Porcelain (《青花瓷》) and made a recording (录音). My teacher helped me send it to a cabin hospital (方舱医院). Patients there can feel relaxed when （hear）it.Here comes springSpring is here. The flowers bring （happy）to everyone in Wuhan, especially the fighters on the frontline.

More and more people have started to shop online. Their new shopping habits are changing Chinese e-commerce (电子商务).Buy fresh food onlineXiao Wei from Nanjing has not been to the supermarket since the outbreak started, according to People’s Daily. Every day, she buys fresh vegetables, meat and fruit online. “It is convenient (方便的) and I’m less likely to be infected (感染),” shesaid.Fresh grocery (生鲜食品) e-commerce in China has seen quick growth during the outbreak. Missfresh (每日优鲜), a grocery delivery (递送) company, reported that sales (销量) were 3.5 times higher than those of last year during the Spring Festival holiday, while sales by JD Fresh were 2.15 times higher, Xinhua reported.People’s new shopping habits might change the future of e-commerce in China. According to a survey (调查) by US market research company Nielsen, nearly 50 percent of people said they would be more willing to buy groceries online even when the epidemic is over.Selling via livestreamingSelling things through livestreaming (直播) is not new in China. In 2018, sales of products through livestreaming totaled 100 billion yuan. On Singles’ Day in 2018, livestreaming seller Li Jiaqi sold 15,000 lipsticks (口红) within just 5 minutes.With most shops closed during the outbreak, shop owners are trying to find new ways to sell their products. Their offline business is starting to go online.On Taobao Live, for example, sellers working in traditional industries (行业) are now selling their products through livestreaming. Clothes and snacks (零食) are among the most popular products. “I like watching people eating and selling snacks,”a Taobao user told . “When I feel bored at home, I wa tch the streams and buy snacks. It makes me feel relaxed and happy.”Jiang Xinjie, assistant president of the Intime Retail Shopping Mall (银泰百货), said over 2,000 of the company’s sales teams will start livestreaming this year in order to sell more. “Livest reaming e-commerce is not only a way for malls to deal with emergencies (紧急情况), but also a way to upgrade (升级) their sales model,” Jiang said.1：Why does Xiao Wei shop online?A.

Online activities have boomed (急速发展) during the epidemic, from telecommuting (远程办公) and online education to online shopping and remote medical services.For employees, especially white-collar workers, telecommuting tools such as video conferences and online office software make working from home more feasible. According to China Daily, Alibaba’s all-in-one mobile workplace DingTalk has served more than 10 million enterprises (企业) and over 200 million people. Tencent Meeting can provide free use for over 300 participants per audio or video conference.Meanwhile, like DingTalk, many apps have been used by students and their teachers for online classes. “Cloud platforms” have also been provided by the Ministry of Education as an approach to continuing education among students across the country.Internet companies, such as NetEase, recently opened a full chain of contactless recruitment (招募) through online resume submission (提交) and online interviews. The candidates (候选人) can also sign contracts (合同), attend training workshops,and even begin work over the internet.Many museums and galleries in China have also been closed to visitors, but they have launched various online exhibitions to provide a creative touring experience for the country’s vast number of stay-at-home visitors.To help prevent possible cross-infection (交叉感染) during the fight against the novel coronavirus, virtual (虚拟的) hospitals have been established.

六、书面表达保护野生动物一、阅读理解Since December, there have been tens of thousands of COVID-19 cases both in and out of China, caused by a previously unknown virus: novel coronavirus (新冠病毒).It’s not the first time for viruses to make headlines. Viruses have brought big trouble to humans, with their potential to cause widespread disease and death.What are they? Viruses are considered to be non-living organisms (有机物). They can infect animals and plants, making them sick. They contain genetic materials like DNA and are protected by a coating of protein.Unlike bacteria (细菌), viruses can’t reproduce on their own. Instead, they invaded the cells of living organisms to reproduce, spread and take over. But the basic question is: where did viruses first come from?Until now, no clear explanation for their origin exists. “Tracing the origins of viruses is difficult,” Ed Rybicki, a virologist at the university of Cape Town in South Africa, told Scientific American, “because viruses don’t leave fossils (化石) and because of the tricks they use to make copies of themselves withi n the cells they’ve invaded.”Understanding the origins of viruses means fully understanding the history of their hosts—not only humans, but also bacteria, plants and other animals, which is a complicated task, says Nature.However, there are three main theories to explain the origin of viruses. First, viruses started as independent organisms, and then became parasites (寄生者). Second, viruses evolved (进化) from pieces of DNA or RNA that“escaped” from larger organisms. The third one is that viruses co-evolved with their host cells, which means they existed alongside these cells.For the time being, these are only theories. The technology and proofs we have today cannot be used to test these theories and discover the most plausible explanation. Continuing studies may provide us with clearer answers. Or future studies may find that the answer is even more mysterious than it now appears.1. What can we learn about viruses from the passage?A. They only infect animals and plants.B. They reproduce by finding a host cell.C. They are really small living organisms.D. They are more dangerous than bacteria.2. The underlined word “plausible” in the last paragraph probably means “______”.A. creativeB. effectiveC. reasonableD. unbelievable3. What can we learn from the passage?A. The author is confident about further virus studies.B. Viruses will become more like bacteria as they evolve.C. Viruses live longer in human host cells than in animals.D. It may take a long time to discover the origin of viruses.4. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Where Do Viruses Come from?B. Why Is COVID-19 a Terrible Virus?C. How to Stop the Viruses from Spreading?D. What Are the Differences Between Viruses and Bacteria?二、完形填空As the saying goes, “A hero is known in the time of misfortune（不幸）”.Zhong Nanshan is a hero like this.

They are the backbone (脊梁) of the force that is going to shape our future. Who are they? They are the young generation who were born after 2000.This year, several young athletes have shone brightly at the Beijing Winter Olympics, giving us a glimpse (一瞥) of their generation's nature.Obviously, the young generation is filled with "brave warriors (战士)" who want to challenge impossibilities and push boundaries. Freestyle skier Gu Ailing is a good example. After she finished strong in the first two jumps in the women's freeski Big Air event, it was certain that she could get a medal. But instead of playing it safe, the 18yearold skier pushed herself to the limit. On the last jump, Gu decided to attempt a difficult trick: a left double cork (左侧两周空翻转体) 1620－four and a half rotations (旋转) in the air－before landing.“I have never done the 'left 16' before. I hadn't prepared much for it apart from two days on the air bag," Gutold China Daily, “but I felt it was a chance to push myself to the limit”.But for these young athletes, the sport is never just about scores, but also about having as much fun as possible. Born in the US, Gu faced criticism and doubts for representing China in the Beijing Winter Olympics.When questioned by The Guardian at a news conference on F eb 8, the “post00” said bluntly (直截了当地) that she wasn't trying to make everyone happy.“I'm an 18yearold girl out here living my best life. I'm having a great time,” Gu said. “It doesn't really matter if other people are happy or not, because I feel I’m doing my best and I’m enjoying the entire process.”Gu's good friend, Chinese snowboarder Su Yiming also shares a similar attitude. He takes sports as a way to have fun.After he was judged to have lost the gold to Canadian athlete Max Parrot in the men's slopestyle (坡面障碍技巧) final, the 17yearold didn’t feel upset. Instead, he was happy to have the chance to pete with his idol.“When I was on the podium (领奖台) hugging Max Parrot, it felt unreal,” Su told China Daily. “All I did today was enjoy the runs and concentrate on my tricks. As long as I am on my snowboard I am happy.”This is young generation that dares to push the limits but also enjoys life.1. Which statement is wrong from the article?A. Gu Ailing is an American girlB. Gu Ailing is a “post 00”C. Gu Ailing is a Chinses athleteD. Gu Ailing is a girl who dares to challenge herself2.Why didn’t Su Yiming feel upset when he lost in the men's slopestyle?A. Because the Canadian athlete Max Parrot is his idol.B. Because losing to his idol is reasonable.C. It was his idol who won the gold.D. Because he thought he had a chance to challenge his idol.3.What’s the main idea of paragraph 3 and 4?A. Gu Ailing is an excellent athlete.B. Gu Ailing’s spirit of challengi ng impossibility.C. Gu Ailing´s enjoying her life.D. Gu Ailing’s good attitude to the Olympics.4. What’s the mon nature of this young generation according to the article?A. Enjoying adventure but also having delicious food.B. Challenging impossibility but also enjoying life.C. Making others happy but also enjoying themselves.D. Following fashion but also making lots of friends.二、阅读理解How has the munist Party of China (CPC) succeeded in leading the nation’s revolution (革命) and development since its founding 100 years ago? And in what way can it succeed in realizing national rejuvenation (复兴) in the future?From Nov 8 to 11, 2021, the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central mittee (中国共产党第十九届中央委员会第六次全体会议) took place in Beijing. The meeting was as much about the past as it was about the future. The mittee reviewed (审议) and passed a key resolution on the major achievements and historical (历史的) experience of the CPC’s 100 years of efforts.The resolution is only the third of its kind in th e Party’s 100year history. The previous (之前的) two were passed in 1945 and 1981 respectively (分别地). These resolutions unified (团结) the whole Party in thinking and action at key historical moments, as well as played a vital guiding role in advancing the cause of the Party and the people, according to the CPC.“Standing at a new historical starting point, we review the past and look to the future,” said Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central mittee. The timing (时机) of the third resolution has its own historical significance (意义), too.In 2021, the CPC realized its First Centenary Goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects (全面建成小康社会). Now it is leading the nation toward its Second Centenary Goal with a twostage strategic plan. In the first stage, from 2020 to 2035, we will see that socialist modernization is basically realized (基本实现社会主义现代化). In the second stage, from 2035 to the middle of this century, China will develop into a great modern socialist country.As the reso lution says, the Party’s past success came from, and its future success will continue to rely on, what the Party does. It includes upholding (坚持) the Party’s leadership, putting the people first, and following the Chinese path. The meeting also decided that the 20th National Congress of the CPC will take place in the secondhalf of 2022 in Beijing.1. When was the first key resolution of the Party passed?A. 1945B. 1981C. 2021D. 20222. What is the meaning of the third resolution?A. Set a goal of building a moderately prosperous society.B.

How long will it take to basically realize socialist modernization from now on?A. About 1 year.B. About 13 years.C. About 29 years.D. About half a century.4.

Where the Party came from.三、阅读理解On a school day, 60 students at Xishan Primary School in Shunde, Guangdong, are learning how to make corn soup (玉米汤) and fried pork (炸猪排) with cauliflower (菜花) in an afterschool cooking class. Working in groups of four or five, the little chefs take their responsibilities very seriously.Soon, they are showing off their own delicious dishes.Since last September, the school has set up afterschool classes forstudents, with cooking classes being the most popular, said Xinhua. It es afterthe “double reduction” policy (政策). The policy aims to ease the burdens(减轻负担) of too much homework and offcampus tutoring (课外辅导) for primary and junior high school students.The policy lists requirements in areas such as reducing the amount and difficulty of homework assignments (家庭作业), as well as improving the quality (质量) of education and afterschool services. For example, homework for junior high school students should take no longer than 90 minutes to finish. It allows students more free time to pursue (追求) their hobbies and interests. Also, offcampus tutoring has been further regulated (管理) to reduce the burden on students.“Our homework is clearly less than before,” said 13yearold Shen Yuzhe from Beijing. “We are not encouragedto buy workbooks anymore. The exercises are mainly from the textbook.” According to Shen, teachers have taught at a much slower pace (速度), which gives students enough time to process new information.In December, the Ministry of Education (MOE) reported on the progress made through the policy so far. Almost all primary and middle schools now offer twohour afterschool services on weekdays. More than 90 percent of students can finish their written homework in the set time. About 92.7 percent of schools have opened afterschool arts and sports classes. More than 80 percent of academic tutoring institutions (学科类校外培训机构) have closed down or turned to other fields of business.“With homework done at school, my child and I can read books and listen to music together in the evening, or we can go out to play badminton or skip rope,” said Lu Di, the parent of a fifthgrader in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang.1.

Supportive.四、阅读理解In May 2021, a video of a group of reality show fans pouring milk out of bottles and collecting the bottle caps (瓶盖) caught our attention online. They wanted the caps, which had QR codes printed inside. With each code standing for a vote (票), fans were able to vote for contestants (选手) in the show.This behavior is typical in fan quan, or “fan clubs”, which are organized groups of loyal (忠诚的) fans who share information about their idols. They voluntarily spend time and money to make their idols as popular as possible.According to China Daily, the rise of fan quan has played a key role in driving the entertainment industry (娱乐产业), but its social impacts (影响) have caused worries. For example, these people wasted a lot of milk. Moreover, some fans spread rumors (谣言) about other celebrities (名人). Different groups of fans sometimes also have online arguments. These misbehaviors will no longer be allowed. In June, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC, 国家网信办) started a twomonth nationwide campaign (行动) called “Clear and Bright” to clean up the online environment, especially fan clubs.Since then, many social platforms (平台) have started dealing with such misbehaviors. Douban, a movie review website, said its major focus is to stop those who lure (引诱) youngsters to raise money to support idols. Sina Weibo silenced (禁言) 100 accounts (账号) and removed (删除) 3,770 posts after an online “fight” between fans of two celebrities on Aug 23.In fan clubs, minors (未成年人) have played an important role. According to the China Internet Network Information Center, there were 183 million Chinese internet users under the age of 18 as of July 2021. Among them, about 8 percent are fans of celebrities, and most are middle school students.These youngsters lack (缺乏) social experience and are easily misled. The negative (负面的) fan culture isbad for forming healthy social behavior among teenagers, said China Daily. “Schools and parents need to provide more care for youngsters to help them support idols rationally (理智地),” Zheng Ning, an expert from munication University of China.New rulesOn Aug 27, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China made a notice covering 10 new requirements, aiming to stop irrational fan culture. Here are some of the requirements.Inte rnet platforms must remove fans’ improper (不合适的) posts in a timely manner. Otherwise, they will face punishment (惩罚).Online accounts of celebrities and their panies need to prevent fans from taking part in arguments, defamation (诽谤), or the dissemination (散播) of other harmful content (内容) on the internet.Luring fans to spend money on certain products is banned (禁止).

一、阅读理解（原创）The first public report on the novel coronavirus infection（传染）in China was the report of “unusual pneumonia (肺炎)” in Wuhan, Hubei province, at the end of December. At that time it was not identified as a coronavirus infection because it was a new disease.A diagnosis (诊断) is like a piece of detective work. Experts try to match patterns between what a patienth as and the patterns of known diseases. They then form a list of what is called “differential diagnoses”, andtests are conducted to confirm or refute (驳倒) certain diagnoses on that list.When something doesn’t fit anything at all, it could be a new dis ease or an unusual pattern of some known disease.Faced with (面对) a new disease, doctors face many difficulties and the task of diagnosing the disease is usually time- and energy-consuming（费时费力）.One can look to the Minamata disease, a neurological (神经学的) disorder, first discovered in Japan in 1956. At first, it was believed to be an infectious disease. Eight months later, it was determined that the disease was a result of mercury (水银) pollution in a river caused by a factory upstream (在上游).What this pandemic has taught us is the importance of cooperation (团结合作) among the people of the world. Assigning blame for the outbreak is not going to help in dealing with the crisis. International Cooperation in containing the spread of the virus and ultimately finding a cure is the answer.As John Donne, an English writer of the 16th century, once said, “No man is an island, entire of himself.” Imagine for a moment that those in the wealthier countries manage to contain the virus, and no help is given to those in the poorer countries. Because we are all interconnected, the virus would still spread back to those rich nations.China has initiated the overseas delivery of medical supplies and equipment to help fight the virus, only to earn suspicions of ulterior motives (别有用心).After World War II, the United States sent a lot of food aid to Asia. Was that done on humanitarian grounds or motivated by soft-power ambitions? Instead of pointing fingers at each other, we must operate as one people helping one another.If we don’t learn from our past mistakes, we are bound to repeat them. That would do great damage to the people of the world and be an affront (冒犯) to those who died in the pandemic.1.Why do we say the novel coronavirus may be a new disease?A. because it is hard to cure.B. because it spreads quickly.C. because it doesn’t match any known diseaseD. because many people infect it easily.2. The author takes the Minamata disease as an example to explain______.A. finding a new disease is not easyB．the novel coronavirus is an infectious disease。

"It was a special thing done through that committee(委员会)."Duncan and Garnett were also widely considered to be locks to be part of this class; they were both 15-time NBA All-Stars, and Bryant was an 18-time selection.Bryant's death has been part of a jarring start of the year for basketball: NBA commissioner Emeritus David Stern died on Jan 1, Bryant and his daughter Gianna were among nine who died in the crash in late January, and the NBA shut down March 11 as the coronavirus pandemic(新冠疫情) began to grip(影响) North America."Obviously, we wish that he was here with us to celebrate," Vanessa Bryant, Kobe's wife, said on the ESPN broadcast of the class announcement."But it's definitely the peak(巅峰) of his NBA career and every accomplishment(成就) that he had as an athlete was a steppingstone to be here. So we're incredibly proud of him."Duncan, Garnett and Bryant were similar in many ways as players: The longevity of their careers, the eye-popping numbers, almost perennial(永久的) inclusion on award lists. They also shared a dislike for showing off personal accomplishments.With Bryant, Duncan and Garnett as perhaps the top NBA trio (三大球星) to ever enter simultaneously, the Hall wanted to make sure that no inductee would be overlooked (忽视).1.

He supports e-commerce and the new economy, which create jobs that never existed before.Every day in China, about 16,500 new enterprises are established, and 40,000 people find new jobs in towns and cities.In total, China has created more than 80 million new urban jobs over the past seven years, equal to the entire German population.China now has the world's largest courier delivery service market, employing more than 3 million people, who send everything from meals to fridges around the country. Earlier this year, Xi paid a surprise visit to a tiny delivery station in Beijing and chatted with a group of deliverymen.This closeness to the people is not a singular event. For the past seven years, Xi has spent time with regular people before every Chinese New Year: giving them festival gifts, observing festive traditions such as food preparation, and asking about their lives and welfare."CPC members must wholeheartedly serve the people," Xi often reminds Party cadres.This connection with the people can be traced back to a time when Xi lived and worked in a remote village in Shaanxi province as an adolescent and young adult for seven years.He has said that he understands the hardships of the people because he once lived in an impoverished corner of the country. He has been known to check the toilets and washrooms of ordinary homes, offer advice on garbage sorting, and show concern for students' poor eyesight.In 2013, Xi put forward "targeted poverty alleviation"(定向扶贫) and set a goal to eliminate extreme rural poverty by 2020, a deadline that is 10 years earlier than the goal set by the United Nations.Over the past seven years, more than 82 million Chinese people left poverty behind. Xi said extreme poverty "would be historically solved in the hands of our generation".Kishore Mahbubani, a professor at the National University of Singapore, said the most outstanding achievement of China in the last 70 years had been the dramatic improvement in the living conditions of the people.Reviewing China's long history, Mahbubani said even at previous peaks of glory, the bottom 50 percent of the population had to struggle to make ends meet. But today even low-income people have access to nutritious food, education, healthcare, housing, employment and even the ability to travel."There is no doubt that, in terms of the living conditions of the people, the past 70 years have been the best years in China's history," he said.1.Why does President Xi say he supports e-commerce and the new economy?A. because e-commerce and the new economy is very completely new for us all.B. because they can offer lots of chances to get jobs for many people.C．because they existed before.D. because they can make people rich quickly.2.

一、阅读理解When Shanghai introduced a new garbage-sorting policy in July last year, the city’s residents (居民) took some time to get used to it. They joked that every time they took out their garbage, the staff (工作人员) standing by the bins would ask, “What kind of garbage are you?”Starting on May 1, Beijing joined many Chinese cities by introducing a new garbage-sorting policy, People’s Daily reported. Residents should sort their garbage into four groups: kitchen, recyclable, hazardous (有害的) and other waste.These groups are represented (代表) by four different colors of trash bins – green, blue, red and gray. Those who fail to sort their trash correctly may face fines of up to 200 yuan, Xinhua reported.The way Beijing sorts its trash sounds different from cities like Shanghai and Qingdao. These cities use four different groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. Although their names are different, the groups are actually the same. Wet garbage in Shanghai is, in fact, kitchen garage. And dry garbage is the same as other waste, China Youth Daily reported.There are other environmentally-friendly changes coming to Beijing too. Restaurants will no longer be allowed to provide disposable tableware (一次性餐具) like wooden chopsticks. Hotels and restaurants will not be allowed to provide disposable products such as toothbrushes.To help residents sort their trash correctly, the Beijing government is offering online guidelines. If people don’t know how to throw away garbage, they can search for it on the WeChat account Guanchenglishi (管城理市) to find out. By searching a key word or taking a photo, people can immediately find out which group their waste belongs in.1. What do we know from this story?A. Garbage-sorting started in Beijing on May 1.B. Garbage-sorting is being carried out nationwide.C. Beijing’s garbage-sorting policy is the same as Shanghai’s.D. Residents in Beijing are troubled by garbage-sorting.2. Kitchen garbage is the same as _____ in Shanghai.A. wet garbageB. dry garbageC. recyclable garbageD. harmful garbage3. If people don’t follow the garbage-sorting policy, _____.A. they will be forced to learn the policyB. they won’t be allowed to throw trash awayC. they won’t be noticedD. they may face fines4.Which of the following statement is right?A. Garbage-sorting in Beijing is the same as that in Shanghai.B. If you don’t understand how to sort Garbage, you will be fined 200yuan.C. . Residents in Beijing should sort their garbage into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.D. From the article ,we have known at least 3 cities have carried out the rules of garbage-sorting5. The last paragraph mainly explains _____.A. the government’s suggestions about garbage-sortingB. problems with Beijing’s garbage-sorting policyC. how to help residents sort their garbageD. actions we can take to protect the environment二、阅读理解Are you curious of looking up at the stars and wondering if there’s intelligent life out there? So isFive-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST, 500米口径球面射电望远镜), China’s mega-science (大科学) project and the world’s largest single-dish radio telescope.On April 28, FAST, nicknamed “China’s Eye of Heaven”, embarked on its search for extraterrestrial intelligence (ET, 外星生物).As the news went viral (走红) on social networking sites, someone commented saying: “Do not answer! Do not a nswer! Do not Answer!”It seems that The Three-Body Problem (《三体》), a science fiction novel by Chinese author Liu Cixin, has influenced minds so deeply that people are worried about the possibility of the Earth being invaded (入侵) by anadvanced extraterrestrial civilization.That worry is, at least for now, unnecessary. Of the 1,800 planets that have been discovered, less than 20 are capable of supporting life, and the nearest among them, Gliese 581, is 20.4 light-years away.According to Robin Ha nson’s Great Filter theory, there is less than a one in a million chance of any extraterrestrial life form evolving (进化) into higher intelligence or a civilization. And since their distance from China could even be millions or billions of light-years away, if they travel at the speed of light, it would take them at least millions of years to reach us.However, that does not mean FAST’s job is meaningless. As mankind’s most sensitive (敏感的) radio telescope, FAST can best collect signals from the universe. Researchers can distinguish even a 4 Hz difference in the signals received, meaning it can best distinguish between manmade and ET-made signals. Even the signals from a non-ET civilization are useful, because they might contain some hidden information leading to the discovery of new stars or planets.With FAST joining the cause, mankind can browse (搜索) the universe more deeply than ever before and increase knowledge about the universe. And whatever it achieves is the best evidence of China’s advanced technology in astronomy (天文学) and the study of the universe.1. What does the underlined phrase “embarked on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. endedB. beganC. releasedD. continued2. What does the “Do not answer!” com ment show?A. The popularity of Liu Cixin’s book.B. Excitement at the news about FAST.C. People worrying about being attacked by ETs.D. The influence of science fiction novels on people.3. What do Paragraphs 5-6 want to tell us?A. What makes a planet suitable for intelligent life.B. People tend to worry much more than they need to.C. Extraterrestrial life forms will not threaten life on Earth.D. There is a slight possibility that an extraterrestrial civilization exists.4. What is the main idea of the last two paragraphs?A. The importance of FAST’s job.B. How FAST distinguishes between signals it collects.C. How the FAST radio telescope works.D. China’s advanced technology in astronomy.三、阅读理解Humans and AI can work together to make art more interesting.A special copyright (版权) case has recently drawn attention because it is related to (和......有关的) artificial intelligence (AI). A court (法庭) in Shenzhen ruled that a news report written by Tencent’s AI enjoys copyright protection. A website broke the law because it used the article without permission (允许).This is the first case in China that has provided copyright protection to work done by AI. But what does it indicate (表明)? Will AI take the place of creative workers in the future?Probably not. AI is not yet able to write creative stories. The news report mentioned (提到) above is mainly about data. Since AI is good at processing (处理) data, it is often used to write financial (金融的) reports. Some newspapers also use AI to report on stories about natural disasters (灾害), which mainly require (需要) basic facts such as “where” and “when”. As Forbes wrote, instead of losing their jobs, journalists can make their work more efficient (高效的) by using AI so that they can focus more on storytelling and less on numbers.AI is actually being helpful in many creative fields. For example, Wayne McGregor, a British choreographer (编舞), is famous for using AI to create new dances. For him, AI is a powerful tool that can help choreographers break out of common movements (动作). McGregor is not worried that AI might replace human artists. “AI can’t judge (判断) the quality (质量) of the choreography,” he said.“It’s time to stop worrying about if AI can be creative,” according to Forbes. Instead, we should fo cus on how humans and AI can work together in ways that we have never dreamed of before.1. According to the copyright case related to AI, we know that _____.A. AI can also break the law.B. news stories cannot be written by AI.C. articles written by AI also have copyright protection.D. AI can copy others’ articles without permission.2. Which kind of stories might AI be good at writing?A. Sci-fi stories.B. Disaster reports.C. Horror stories.D. Poems.3. Wayne McGregor agrees that _____.A. AI helps him do creative workB. AI can create new dances by itselfC. AI might replace human artistsD. AI can teach people how to dance4. Which of the following might be the author’s view?A. Many jobs will disappear due to AI.B. We should make laws for AI.C. AI is difficult to use.D. We should work together with AI.四、完形填空“Ne Zha” first caught people's eyes on 26th July, 2019.
