There’s no homework over the weekendand on vacation.”“Being able to watch my favorite channel Star Plus, CartoonNetwork whenever I like.”“Eating as many ice creams as I want.”“Going for school tours. On ly 4th and 5th class students gofor tours. We 3rd class students are not allowed.”“Not getting up early in the morning.”Radhika Jain (8 years) “Doing what I like but should be right …”“I will never do anything bad against rules like corruption.”“I won’t go against the government rules only of the rulesare right. Out of 100 percent if 80 percent say a rule is bad then it isbad.”Saloni (11 years)“We can do anything we want, like not going to school.” “Everything should be free. We should not pay money to buy anything.” “Can go anywhere I want … to the playground when exams are on.” “Chatting on phone with classmates or friends as long as I want.” “In school being able to play sports and not study.”“Flying kites.”Arihant Jain (12 years)1.

I've been preparing for my exams now for thelast two weeks．That's why I haven't written for such a long time．Since the beginning of this year we've been doing a project called “World Class”．Have you heard of it? Not everyone in the class could take part，but luckily I could．The school chose a “twin school”in a different area of the world．Our head teacher chose a school in Uganda, a country in Africa．They gave us someone to write to from that school．For three months，I've written to a girl called Louisa，who is the same age as me．It's been so interesting to hear about her life．She's told me all about her school and described her daily life．I can't believe that her school doesn't have any electricity．She goes to school from eight o'clock in the morning until six o'clock in the evening．I can't believe how lucky we are here!I love it because it's the first time I've thought about what life must be like somewhere else．I can't believe people miss classes here when everything is so easy for us．I think more people should help out with projects like this．At the weekend we're going to have a sports day to help raise money to send to the school．Perhaps one day I'll be able to go to Uganda and meet Louisa myself — who knows?Lots of love，Suzanne1．Suzanne hasn't written to Estelle for long because she is _______．A．writing to a girl B．preparing for her examsC．busy doing a project D．choosing a “twin school”2．Suzanne felt _______ to take part in the Project “World Class”．A．strange B．surprised C．thankful D．lucky 3．Suzanne and her classmates will ________________ to help their twin school this weekend.A．write letters B．send clothes C．raise money D．go to AfricaB3（丰台）Charlie was about to climb into bed when he found there was a light on in his garden shed (工棚).

The policeman asked: “Are there any thieves (小偷)in your house?”Charlie replied “no” and explained what was happening.The police said: “All patrol cars (巡逻车) have gone out, and a policeman will go to your house when one is free.”Charlie hung up, waited 30 seconds, and then calledthe police again.“Hello, I just called a short while ago because therewere people stealing things from my shed. I want to let youknow that they’re not a problem anymore because I’ve justshot every one of them.”Charlie then hung up the phone.

Read the short passages below.10 million reptiles are killed every year. Their skin is used to make fashion items, like handbags and shoes.The main reason whales are in danger is that man kills them for their meat and oils.Orangutans live in rainforests. They want to live in peace,But people are cutting down the trees for wood and farming.This is a big problem because the trees are the orangutan’s homes.They are very difficult to find and study because they are shy animals. They are also our cousins!There isn’t enough bamboo for pandas to eat because man has cut down nearly half the bamboo forests. Research has shown that there are only about 600 giant pandas left in the wild in the world. Most of them live in China.Some people steal the turtle’s eggs to eat. The skin of the turtle is used to make some jewellery.In the Far East, rhinoceros’ horns are used to make medicines. They are also used to make ornaments.So what can you do to help protect them?●Try not to buy jewellery made from animals.●Try to keep the earth clean and free from pollution.●Tell other people about what you’ve learned.1. Reptiles’ skin is used to make __________.A. fashion itemsB. oilsC. some jewelleryD. ornaments2. There are fewer homes for orangutans because _________________.A. their eggs are stolenB. their horns are cutC. trees in rain forests are cut downD. half the bamboo forests have been cut down3. “________________” doesn’t belong to protecting animals.A. Keeping the earth cleanB. Eating wild animal meatC. Stopping pollutionD. Telling others not to kill animalsB5（通州）When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.Of course, he delivered (分发) more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write a note —“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”. Then she put the note and the empty bottles into the milk box. The next day, the buttermilk would magically appear.There was also a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box in the house, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time t aking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.I am sad that there is no home milk delivery today. Big companies produce cheaper milk, and milk is for sale everywhere. People may not need the milkman anymore.Recently, I saw an old milk box in the countryside and it brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and put it outside the door. My son’s friends always ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship with his milk.1. The milkman delivered milk to family _____ in the old days.A. by carB. by bikeC. on footD. by truck2. The writer’s mother put the note _____.A. into the bottlesB. into the milk boxC. in the kitchenD. in front of the door3. The writer brought back home an old milk box because he _____.A. missed the good old daysB. wanted to tell funny storiesC. needed it for his milk bottleD. wanted to give it to the milkmanB6（西城）A new museum about laziness has opened in Colombia’s capital, Bogota. But, you have to hurry if you want to find out about being lazy because the show lasts for only one week.The unusual show has displays (展品) that include things, such as sofas, beds, and anything that lets you take the weight off your feet. There are also plenty of televisions for visitors to watch while they walk around in the museum.The museum opened soon after the holiday season. The idea is for people to think about laziness, and perhaps change their behavior and lifestyle throughout the rest of the year.The museum’s keeper, Marcela Arrieta, said she wanted people to have a rethink about laziness and decide whether it really is a bad thing. She added, “We always think about l aziness as an enemy of work.” Ms. Arrieta may not be pushing for a shorter working week, but she could have a point in that we might require more free time than our jobs allow us. Avoiding the pressure (压力) of work and relaxing more may make us healthier and live longer.Try out her advice for yourself; take the weight off your feet, put your feet up, and think about being lazy.1. Visitors can ______ in the Museum of Laziness.A. repair sofasB. watch TVC. buy bedsD. get a job2. What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph 2?A. Relax yourself.B. Become excited.C. Lose weight.D. Take off your shoes.3.

But we were too busy to buy one. One day, Becky ran in, shouting, “Mom! Come to see my dog!” Her face wasred with excitement.I followed her to the bush and found a wolf! He was hurt. Seeingme, he stood up suddenly! I could see his teeth! God! My mouth feltdry. “Don’t be afraid. That’s Mom. She loves you, too,” Becky said.Then he became friendly. It was unbelievable!I rushed to find my husband and told him about the wolf. We should have killed the wolf, but Becky loved him. Besides, he was gentle to Becky. So we called the vet finally.Becky named the wolf Ralph and she carried food to him every day. Later, Ralph got well. They played together in the daytime. At night, Ralph would return to the mountains. Sometimes he disappeared but came back several days later.On Becky’s first day of school, we could see Ralph’s sadness. After the school bus left, Ralph lay by the side of the road and waited. When Becky returned, he got happy again. This continued throughout Becky’s school years.Twelve years passed. One day we heard that a wolf was killed. The other wolf was hurt and ran away. We were worried about Ralph. That night, Ralph returned with a wound(伤口). Becky held his head kindly and comforted him. We hope he could come through. However, he died.Becky cried. I noticed something strange in the bush---two little yellow eyes! Ralph’s child! Before he died，Ralph brought his child to us! He knew he would be safe here, as he had been. Ralph, Ralph… I was moved.“Don’t be afraid, Little…Ralphie. That’s Mom. She loves you, too.”1.

There are lots of reasons why they do this —mostly it is to find work, because all the big companies are in the cities and they need lots of people to work there. When there are lots of people living and working in a city, they need things like restaurants, shops, hospitals and schools, too. These are all more jobs that people need to do. There will be lots of transport in the city to move all the people around. Everything you could want will be found in a city: government offices, museums and art galleries, cinemas, big restaurants and parks.Unfortunately the city is much busier, more expensive, and more dangerous than the country. The air is not so healthy because of all the cars and trucks on the roads. There are so many people that it is not as friendly — you cannot get to know everyone as you do in the country, and people may get lonely. You do not have much room in the city — most people live in apartments — not houses, and they do not have gardens or lots of space, and because of all the people there is also a lot of noise.The country is much more friendly as everyone knows each other.It is much cheaper to live and there are less dangerous people thanyou find in cities. And perhaps the best thing is that you can have abig house with a garden and it will be very quiet. But there are notmany jobs or services there. There are also not many shops, schools orhospitals. And it is hard to get around.Every person is different, but more and more people choose to live in cities because there is so much to do there. What do you think about the city?1. Why do more and more people move to the cities?A.Because they want to find a job.B.Because they like to live in apartments.C.Because they want to make more friends.D.Because they like eating in big restaurants.2. Which sentence is true according to the passage?A.You can live a quiet life in the cityB.You can find a big house with a garden in the country.C.People can visit museums and art galleries in the country.D.Big companies in the country need lots of people to work there.3. The writer says the country is more friendly because __________.A. people can live quietlyB. people work togetherC. everyone has some friendsD. everyone knows each other参考答案B1:1. D 2. C 3.

It was 1st January, the first day of the year and a holiday for me. I thought of getting the bank work out of the way. The bank person just nodded to my 35 “Happy New Year” when I sat in front of him.He was busy at that moment. After a few minutes he took my form and started filling in my details. I sat there 36 why we had computerized banking if we were still filling in forms.After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all 37 of being impatient, I asked him if my work was done. He shouted even without looking at me, “Nothing is done, it will take time!”Just then I saw his morning cup of tea which had been lying there for ten minutes, untouched. The tea had turned 38 cold while he was doing his work. Suddenly I felt what this man must be feeling when customers 39 me came always in a hurry to get their work done. We did not even 40 the need to thank them for being there. He must be feeling so 41 that “here comes another person who will push me for doing his work first.”On an instinct(直觉) I told him, “Sir, please have your tea, I am not in a hurry.” He suddenly looked up at me and for the first time we had eye contact. I saw both of us sailing in the same boat. I felt that he was also 42 the small things in life like a cup of hot tea for a few more minutes. He gave me a smile and said, “It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but 43 else will come, who will be in a hurry.”He really touched my heart with his wise 44 . I felt that we had all put shields (盾牌) on our hearts like we put gloves on our hands. All this time I thought of him as a robot, someone who was there for my convenience, 45 today I suddenly felt a strange closeness with him. I promised to be more friendly with people who helped me and be 46 that they were there for me.35. A. sad B. angry C. polite D. honest36. A. requiring B. wondering C. expecting D. arguing37.

2013年海淀区中考英语一模解析四、单项填空（共13分，每小题1分）22. 【正确答案】B【解题思路】对人称代词的考察。

人称代词作主语或者宾语，根据主谓宾的结构可知，主语在谓语动词前，宾语在谓语后。

而此题谓语为：pass，空格出现在pass之后，所以填宾格me。

而C选项my＋名词＝D选项mine，此处根据pass sbsth得知不适合，故排除。

23. 【正确答案】D【解题思路】对介词（地点）的考察。

根据题意：著名的歌手将会在音乐会大厅中表演节目。

在。

里用介词：at。

此题与去年的北京中考真题里的介词题的at the office相似。

A 中的by表示方式，可加交通工具或者doing。

B中的of，表示所属关系，表示：的。

C中的on，在。

上，表示方位。

所以此题只能选D。

24. 【正确答案】A【解题思路】对连词的考察。

根据题意：前半句：格林先生不能去开会，后半句：他感冒得很厉害。

两者应该成因果关系。

所以A选项’因为’正确。

B选项’除非’，C选项’是否’，D选项’尽管’，都无法构成因果。

故排除。

25. 【正确答案】C【解题思路】对不定代词的考察。

看到了there be与wrong，很多同学会毫不犹豫的选择了A，叫做’ ….出了问题’。

但是前面写的是：电脑工作的很好，显然不是出现了问题，而应该是它的反义词：C。

电脑没问题才能工作的很好。

如果选B，D，那么电脑无法正常工作。

26. 【正确答案】B【解题思路】对形容词的级的考察。

标志的提示词在空格前面的much，还有空格后面的than。

much 修饰比较级,than是比较级两者比较的标志，所以答案就是B。

27. 【正确答案】C【解题思路】对情态动词的考察。

这一点我们从选项可以得知。

’当灯是红色的时候，你怎么样穿越马路’。

A表示能做某事，表示做事的能力。

B 表示必须。

C 禁止。

D 不必。

根据语意我们可知选择C。

28. 【正确答案】A【解题思路】对主将从现的考察。

我们看到了标志词：as soon as，前半句还有will＋do的结构，后半句肯定要用一般现在时了，故直接排除了B，C，D。

Joseph looked at the farmhouse that was now supposed to be his home. As he finished the last 35 , he noticed something metal shining in the rosy late-afternoon sunlight. He picked it up: a rusty old 36 . He put it in his pocket and walked down the hill. .Grandpa passed away last year, leaving the house and farm to his mother. Joseph had hoped that she would just 37 it and buy a house in the city. However, she chose to move to the farm. Joseph had been very 38 about leaving his friends and his school.In the city, dinnertime had always been an opportunity for conversation between Joseph and his mother. Here, though, he had 39 to say. He knew his silence hurt his mother, but surely it was better than the angry words waiting behind it.It was best to keep 40 . He quickly finished his food on the plate and wentto his room upstairs.Later, he went down the stairs to look for something to read. In the deep silence, his mother sat alone on the living-room sofa. On her lap lay a photograph album. Looking up, she smiled 41 and said, “See what I found? Here’s your g reat-grandfather. He’s about your age in this picture. Do you think you look like him?”Joseph stuffed his hand into his pockets and shrugged(耸肩). He 42 the old key.As he moved closer to look at the photograph, something else 43 his eye. “What’s that?” he asked, pointing to a painted wooden box on the coffee table.“It’s a silent music box, “ his mother said softly. “Years ago, when I wasa little girl, 44 brother, 2 years older than me, took the key away. He didn’t mean to lose it. But he dropped it out somewhere, we searched and searched but 45 found it.”Joseph sat down beside her and handed the rusty key to her.Suddenly his mother’s eyes sparkled. With trembling hands, she wound up(转动) the music box. As its sweet melody played, mother and son listened together.“it has been silent for a long, long time,” she said.“It’s so clear!” said Joseph. “It sounds as good as new.” The silence had been 46 .35.

Lucy took it up and threw it into the air, but her brother didn’t pay attention and ran off, so the kite fell down. “Try again, children,” I said.Lucy once more took up the kite. But John ran off so suddenly that the kite flew out of her hand and it fell flat as before. “Try again,” said I.They did, and with more care, but a side wind came suddenly. As Lucy let go the kite, it was blown against some bushes and the tail was caught. Meanwhile, I went to the kite’s assistance and set the tail free from the bushes. I told them to find a more open area and then try again.We found an open area. I threw the kite up as John ran off. It rose up and promiseda high flight. But John was so pleased that he stopped short to look upward. The string became loose. The kite shook and came down to the ground. “I won’t try anymore. The kite won’t fly.” said he angrily. I replied, “A few disappointments are not supposed t o discourage us. And now try again.”And he tried and succeeded, for the kite was carried upward on the breeze as lightly as a feather. He was very excited to enjoy the sight. John began to roll up the string slowly. “Shall we come out tomorrow and try again?”I smiled, “Yes, dear children. I wish to teach you the value of keeping trying. Whenever you fail, remember---TRY AGAIN!”50. How many times did they fly the kite?A. Five B .Four C. Three D. Six51.

We read about it in the news, and there’s talk of passing laws against trans fats. We are bombarded with the word. Unfortunately, most people don’t know that trans fats truly are and why they are so bad for us. A lot of food production companies want to get your dollars by printing “Trans Fat Free” on their label(标签). Sadly, they may not be telling the truth.So what is a trans fats really? A trans fat is a liquid(液体)fat that is turned into solid. Although there is a very small amount of natural trans fats in meal and dairy products, most of them are created by adding hydrogen to light fat. Food-makers do this because it makes the products last longer on the shelf. Have you ever wondered why cookies can stil l be crispy and “tasty” after six months to a year on a store shelf? It’s because of trans fats. Trans fats are typically found in things like donuts, French fries, cookies, microwave popcorn, and potato chips.Why are trans fats bad for you? Trans fats raise the bad cholesterol(胆固醇) in your body and lower the good cholesterol that the body needs. Fatty foods do cause overweight. Trans fats build up in the body and block book flow to the heart. People whose diet contains a high percentage of trans fats are at risk of heart disease and stroke.Why can the food-makers label trans fats free when it isn’t? Because of the way the nutrition labeling laws work, the FDA(Food and Drug Administration) has allowed that if a food has less than 0 .5 grams per serving (一份) it can be classifiedas trans fats free. Read the label and you may discover that the package actually contains 6 servings, and if you just are three of them, you might have eaten 1.49 grams of trans fats.Besides, in most fast food restaurants, ingredient and nutrition informationare not listed. You may be shocked if you know what you are eating. An article in Men’s Health magazine pointed that in KFC, hydrogenated(氢化的) oils appeared 91 times among the ingredients from the menu list.How do you really know if there are trans fats in the food you are eating? Oneway to truly understand what you are eating is to read the label. Another is to understand your ingredients. Anything on the label that says hydrogenated orpartially hydrogenated, even if the package says “Trans Fats Free”, has trans fatsin it. You had better not buy that product. Make a different choice, a choice for your health.53. The expression “are bombarded with” in Paragraph 1 probably meansA. are tired ofB. hear much ofC. are connected withD. know clearly about54.

Danger of Eating Trans Fats FoodB. Truths and Facts about Trans FactsC. Buy Trans Fats Free Products Now!D. Don’t Eat in Fast Food Restaurant!DThe “halo effect” is a classic finding social psychology. It is the idea that general evaluations(评价) about a person (e.g. she is likeable) influence judgments about their specific traits(品质)(e.g. she is intelligent). Hollywood stars givethe perfect example. Because they are often attractive and likeable, we naturally consider they are also intelligent, friendly and so on. That is, sometimes, not true.In the 1970s, well-known social psychologist Richard Nisbett set out to provethe fact that we actually pay little attention to our thought processes in general, especially to the halo effect.Nisbett wanted to examine the way students made judgments about teachers. Theyhad been divided into two groups to watch two different videos of the same teacher,who happened to have a strong Indian accent. One group watched the teacher answera series of questions in an extremely warm and friendly manner. The second groupsaw exactly the same person answer exactly the same questions in a cold and distantmanner. In one the teacher appeared to like teaching and students, and in the other he came across as someone powerful who didn’t like teaching at all.After each group of students watched the videos they were asked to evaluate the teacher on physical appearance, mannerisms and even his accent (mannerisms were kept the same across both videos). The same as the hale effect infers, students who saw the “warm” one evaluated him more attractive, his mannerisms more likeable and even his accent as more pleasing. This was unsurprising as it backed up the idea s on the halo effect. At the same time, for those who had seen the other video, the result was just the wrong way around.The surprise is that students had no clue why they gave one teacher higher evaluations. Most said that how much they liked the teacher had not influenced their evaluation of his individual traits at all.The halo effect is fascinating and now well-known in the business world. For example, books that have “Harvard Classics” written on the front can ask twice the price of the exact same book without it. The same is true in the fashion industry.So the next time you consider buying a pair of designer jeans or decide whether you like someone, ask yourself whether the halo effect is operating. Are you really evaluating the traits of the person? This simple check could save you wasting your money or refusing a royal friend. Or perhaps, even if you do check, you’ll still never know.56. Why does the author mention Hollywood stars in the first paragraph?A. To help us to evaluate others.B. To explain what the halo effect isC. To show us the background of the storyD. To tell us Hollywood stars are not truly friendly57. Which one do you think is NOT an example of the halo effect?A. You make friends with the people who have good judgmentsB. You prefer to buy the products advertised by a movie starC. You pay more for a simple T-shirt with a famous designer’s name on it.D. You believe your teachers are intelligent because they appear likeable58. What can we learn from the passage?A. People can do nothing to avoid the halo effectB. People use the halo effect widely in the business worldC. People often wonder how the halo effect works before shoppingD. People sometimes don’t realize the halo effect when they make judgments59. The passage is mainly aboutA. the cause of the halo effectB. the development of the halo effectC. the evaluation of the halo effectD. the influence of the halo effectI’ve been singing and performing poems since I was six years old. I used to sing for my mother’s friends.60I have written three books of poems and songs. I gave all the money from the books to children’s cha rities. 61 Money from the second book was spent on homeless children in Bosnia.I visit patients at a local hospital every Saturday morning. I talk and sing for them. I guess that’s what’s really fulfilling(令人满意的)to me when I sing to someone who is dying , and someone who is really sick and who doesn’t even know what’s happening.62Everyone can give love, and love is what everyone wants. That’s a really important lesson to me. 63 Making someone happy makes you happy, and they go on and make others happy and it’s like a chain(链). You change when you get older, but love is ageless. Love is the same when you are7, 13, or 102 years old.A. Love is a chain of givingB. But now I am singing for people in needC. I visit people in the old people ’s homeD. Money from my first look went to a school for deaf kids in MontanaE. I feel proud when I see a smile on that person’s faceLearning to understand your mother well is what you should do.
