I have forgotten what the argument was about, but Ihave never forgotten the lesson I learned that day.I believed that I was right and he was wrong, and Tony believedthat I was wrong and he was right. Our teacher, a kind and smart lady, decided to teach us a lesson. She brought us to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large and round object. I could clearly see that it was black. The teacher asked us what colour the object was. To my surprise, Tony answered “white” I couldn't believe he said the object was white!“Clearly, it was black!”Another argument started between Tony and me, this time about the colour of the object.The teacher told me to go and stand where Tony was standing and told him to go and stand where I was standing. We changed places, and now she asked me what colour the object was. I had to answer, “White. ”It was an object with two differently coloured sides—from his side it was white, while from my side it was black. “Boys, now, what do you say?”The teacher smiled at us.Tony has been my best friend ever since.My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: When you disagree with others, you'd better be in their shoes. That will help you look at the situation through their eyes, and truly understand their ideas and ways of thinking.24. What did the teacher do at first?A. She shouted at the boys.B. She called the boys' parents.C. She walked out of the classroom.D. She brought the boys to her desk.25. How did the writer feel when Tony answered “white” in Paragraph 2?A. Pleased.B. Surprised.C. Afraid.D. Thankful.26. From this lesson, the writer has learned that ________________.A. great minds think the same B burn the candle at both endsC. stand in other people's shoes D many hands make light workCKids are born for science. This idea may surprise you because science seems difficult to learn. Yet it really holds water and science learning is likely to make a great difference in kids' lives.The basic science is a mixture of thought and experiment called the scientific method. It's where you start with an idea, create a way to explain your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically (逻辑地)and carefully. These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins (维生素)to a developing mind.One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are intrigued by science because much of science is hands-on. It attracts most children. Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the “WOW!”of a great science showing.Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language—math! So, science encourages children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how. things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. As a result, studying science lends itself easily to studying history. And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report. So, writing becomes an important part of science.Science is the basic thing far much of our life. The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical (生物医学的) science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the future voters (选民), creators and officials, it is important to make sure they-are not only comfortable but also good at science.27. The expression “are intrigued by” in Paragraph 3 probably means“_____________”.A. are interested inB. are satisfied withC. are good atD. are busy with28. The writer probably agrees that ______________.A. children usually consider science boringB. science is too difficult for children to understandC. learning science can improve children's thinking skillsD. children who are good at writing can learn science well29. What is the passage mainly about?A. Why kids should learn science.B. How kids can make use of science.C. Why science is important for officials.D. What future voters should learn at school.DLike many writers, I'm a top master at procrastination (拖延症) .When I should be working on a task, with the clock ticking towards mydeadline, I'll sit there watching meaningless interviews or cat videos onthe Internet.According to the traditional thinking—I, along with my friend procrastinators, have a time management problem. By this view, I haven't fully understood how long my task is going to take and I'm not paying enough attention to how much time I'm actually wasting on videos. With better scheduling (时序安排), I will stop procrastinating and get on with my workIncreasingly, however, psychologists (心理学家) are realizing this is wrong.Researchers in the UK have showed that procrastination is a matter with managing our emotions, not our time. The task we're putting off is making us feel bad—perhaps it's boring, too difficult or we're worried about failing—and to make ourselves feel better in the moment, we start doing something else, like watching videos.One research to encourage the emotional view of procrastination was published by researchers at Case Western Reserve University. They first made people feel bad(by asking them to read sad stories)and showed that this increased their repeated habit to procrastinate by playing video games instead of preparing for the test they knew was coming. Following studies by another team also showed feeling down only makes people procrastinate more if they have fun things to divert (分做)their attention.This fresh view on procrastination is beginning to open up exciting new methods to reducing the habit A method, which is based on Acceptance. end Commitment Therapy (接纳与承诺疗法), seems especially proper. It argues that ordering choices and actions that help you get closer to get things done can keep you away from the unpleasant feelings. So the next time you're going to procrastinate, make your focus as simple as “What's the next action?”Focusing on this one-step question takes your mind off your feelings and onto easily achievable action. “Our research and lived experience show very clearly that once we get started, usually we're able to keep going. Getting started is “everything” .30. Traditionally, we think procrastinators are those who ______________.A. are usually responsible peopleB. have difficulty managing timeC. enjoy watching videos while writingD. can get work done with better organization31. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. how emotions lead to procrastination.B. procrastination improves your moodsC. Test-takers can not escape bad emotions.D. Procrastinators prefer games to sad stories.32. Why does the writer suggest focusing on one simple questionA Because it shortens the process.B. Because it may reduce unpleasant feelings.C. Because it can fix time management problem.D. Because it encourages the wildest imagination.33. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?A. To introduce new studies about procrastination.B .To compare different reasons for procrastination.C. To discuss what effect procrastination brings about.D. To explain how good time management matters in life.2022年北京市朝阳区中考一模英语试卷三、阅读单选During ancient times, children didn’t have smart phone, iPad or computer to have fun. Instead, they came up with interesting games to play in their childhood. Let’s take a look.Kites have quite a long history. The earliest kites weremade of wood. Now in China, the three most famous kites arethe Beijing kite, Tianjin kite and Weifang kite, each of whichhas its own characteristic.Diabolo is always made of wood or bamboo and is hollow（空心的）in the center. When juggled（抛接）on ropes, thehigh-speed rotating（旋转的）diabolo will make a sound.Playing diabolo is a very interesting game.The closest thing to watching a film or television duringancient times was watching a shadow play. People controlpuppets behind the screen while singing with music to tell astory. Shadow play was listed as a national intangible culturalheritage（非物质文化遗产）in 2006.Firecrackers have a history of more than 2,000 years. It issaid that people burnt bamboo joints to make it blast（爆炸）todrive away the beast named Nian in ancient China.

And he recognized the need to give something to his son so that he could take care of himself.One day, the man said to his son, “I want you to find the real purpose of your life.” Then he handed his son a map and asked him to find the treasure.The son set out the next day. Along the way, he met a lot of people. Some helped him with food, and some with shelter（住所）. Finally, after a long year, he reached the place. But he found nothing.On his way back, he went through the same places. But this time, he stopped to enjoy the beauty of nature. He learned how to hunt, cook, and protect himself from wild animals. He met the same people who had helped him earlier, and this time he helped them in return.When he reached home, he apologized（道歉）to his father for not finding the treasure.“There wasn’t any treasure, my son,” the man answered with a smile.“But why did you send me to find it?” he asked.Instead of answering the question, the father said, “how was your journey to the place?”“I didn’t enjoy it at all！Because I was in a hurry looking for the treasure. But I did enjoy the journey on my way back home. I made many friends and I learned so many skills, which made me forget the pain of not finding the treasure.”His father said to him, “now I think you have found your life’s true purpose. I want you to lead your life with a goal. But if you remain too focused（专注）on your goal, you will miss out the real treasure of life, that is, to just experience it and grow with it every single day.”24．The son set out on the journey because he wanted to _________.A．travel around B．experience life C．find the treasure D．help other people 25．When he returned home and saw his father, the son felt _________.A．excited B．sorry C．satisfied D．disappointed 26．The old man told his son the real purpose of life is to _________.A．live life to the fullest B．find many interestsC．develop skills to live in the wild D．never give up searching for treasure Sometimes a little self-criticism is not a bad thing. We all can learn much from our mistakes. However,too much of it may influence your brain and your life.Negative self-talk is that little voice in your head that judges you. It says you are not good enough. It reminds you of all your faults（过错）and mistakes.Dr. Hughes, an educator and a researcher on how the mind controls behavior, noticed that there are some students who are doing all the right things. They are good students. They show up for class. They do their homework. They study hard. But when it comes to taking a test, they do not do well. They may suffer（遭受）from something commo nly called “ test anxiety（焦虑）”.Lindsay was one of Hughes’ best students at a community college. She came to class early, took part in discussions and did all of her homework. However, she did poorly in exams. When Hughes asked her how she felt before a test, she told him she was very nervous. She wondered why she had trouble remembering what she had studied. She said she did not trust that she knew the right answers. This is an example of negative self-talk, which can influence a student’s grades.Dr. Hu ghes took Lindsay’s negative self-talks and turned them into positive （积极的）questions. Before a test, he told Lindsay to say to herself: Why am I so relaxed when I take an exam? Why am I so focused during my exam? Why do I remember everything I study for an exam? Why do I trust my answers?Lindsay took his advice. Two weeks later, she took an exam in another class and scored 15 points higher than she had on an earlier exam. Four weeks later, she earned an “A” on the final exam in Hughes’ class. Lindsay left community college and went to a four-year university. She continued to use the method of positive self-talk. When Dr. Hughes checked up on her a year later, she had good news to share: she had got straight As on all of her exams.Dr. Hughes saw student after student succeed with his method. More importantly, they got their self-confidence back. And he does not just help his students. He also encourages his friends and neighbors to get rid of （摆脱）negative self-talk gradually in their life. In a television interview, he said, “We can program ourselves for success in class or in life, or we can programourselves for failure.”27．What do you know about negative self-talk from the passage?A．It shows your good judgement.B．It harms your brain and your body.C．It helps you correct your faults and mistakes.D．It tells you that you are not excellent enough.28．Why does the writer use the example of Dr. Hughes’ student Lindsay?A．To prove that positive self-talk brings improvements.B．To show that negative self-talk has some bad influence.C．To stress the necessity of asking questions before exams.D．To introduce some good ways to help students and friends.29．Which of the following could be the title of the passage?A．Negative Self-talk Can Hurt YouB．Negative Self-talk Makes You FailC．Positive Self-talk Betters Your GradesD．Positive Self-talk Can Change Your GoalToday, the world is highly competitive. Governments, companies and individuals（个人）are all competing to be the best in the society. It is true that competition leads to better products and services; many people, especially parents, believe that being competitive is helpful for children because it prepares them for the modern world. However, is competition the first thing that our society needs?Schools teach students to compete for better grades, while in businesses, people are better paid for their competitive performances. However, none of them realizes the adverse effects competition has on the society. For two companies in a competition, one will surely lose then disappear, while the other remains stronger in the market. If this is popular in a country, the number of companies may drop, and then the economy（经济）gets worse. Besides, competition may result in distrust in society.Cooperation（合作）presents a different picture. Competition breaks relationships, while cooperation strengthens relationships. When we cooperate with others, we meet new people, we get to know new things, we share thoughts, we help each other and we succeed together.Cooperation focuses on the growth and development of everyone, as many people work together toward a common goal. This way, everyone is equally（相同地）developed.The processes of cooperation have played an important role in shaping the history. Let’s discuss the example of UN（United Nations）.The UN’s calling is to keep world peace and create harmony（和谐）.All nations have cooperated and will keep cooperating with one another to fight for a better future for the whole world.Sports also provide us with a best example of cooperation. Think about how all members of the team forget who they themselves are and work only for the benefit of the team. Although sports are competitive by nature, when there is cooperation between the members, they encourage and support each other, and they get a greater chance of winning.The development of both society and individual today depends on not just healthy competition but cooperation. Unfortunately, people are not taught cooperative skills at an early age, and this has encouraged a cultur e of competition in today’s society. The skills of cooperation should be included in the educational system for children in their early ages. This way, children grow up into adults who value and welcome cooperation, which brings out the best in us. 30．According to the passage,competition causes ________.A．helpful suggestions and ideas B．excellent products and services C．responsible children and parents D．confident performances and voice 31．What does the underlined word “adverse” in Paragraph 2 probably mea n? A．Supportive. B．Various. C．Confusing. D．Harmful 32．What can we learn from the passage?A．The economy can grow rapidly in competition.B．Kids should not just learn the skills of competition.C．UN was set up to call on people to create competition.D．Sportsmen should not be cooperative to win the game.33．The writer probably agrees that _________.A．people should value competition more than cooperationB．people can perform better in competition than cooperationC．people can benefit more from cooperation than competitionD．people should depend more on competition than cooperation2021年北京市朝阳区中考一模英语试卷The Blog of Zhao XinHow to Learn EnglishBy Zhao Xin April 6, 2021Hi!

He was a 12-year-old hero to all the people.Andrew was on the road with his mother, when a car drove into a metal barrier（金属屏障）. The family’s car fell down a hill into the canal, and landed with its wheels up. Andrew 12, then jumped into the water and swam towards the car. He saw the whole family was still in the car in the water. He took a deep breath and swam through a broken window to save first the boy Mike.Andrew freed Mike and then tried to get Rosie who was under the cold, cloudy water, in the car. Andrew had to feel for her seatbelt because he could not see anything. He took the seatbelt off her, and then went up for air. Finally he went back to pull her out of the car, and Rosie was saved successfully. The parents were badly hurt in the accident and were saved by the police.Andrew’s mother said: “After I got help on the phone and looked back, I found Andrew had gone. Then suddenly I saw him come up out of the water like a dolphin, and I could see he had the girl, I was so proud of my son.”Andrew said: “I didn’t think about it and only knew I had to get them out. I w as frightened, but it was all happening so fast. And I really had no time to think about the danger.”To Andrew’s mother, he was only a 12-year-old son, out to other people, he is the symbol of courage.24．Where was Andrew when the car drove into a metal barrier?A．In the car. B．In the canal. C．On the road. D．On the hill 25．How many people did Andrew save from the canal in the accident?A．1 B．2 C．3 D．426．What did people think of Andrew?A．Brave B．Honest C．Serious D．HardworkingDoes your sense of hearing, smell, and touch become better after you go blind? In the past, some philosophers (哲学家) said that blind people had “supernormal” powers of hearing andtouch. Today, it’s common in films to have a blind character with some ki nd of super-sense ability: one of the most famous is the blind superhero Daredevil, who hears birds flying miles away from him, and follows bad people with his super smell.So maybe it’s no wonder that this is a common question, according to L. Penny Rosen blum, the Director of Research for the American Foundation for the Blind. But, she says, the answer is no: “People who are blind do not have better hearing. Since they cannot depend on their eyes as the sighted people, they use hearing to compensate for th e loss of sight.”In other words, a blind person’s senses aren’t better than a sighted person’s. But a person feeling the world mostly through hearing and touch is better at simply noticing and identifying (辨别) different sounds and sensations (感觉). Having a walk in a busy street, a sighted person notices the bright flashing signs on nearby shops, the colors of people’s clothing and the size and shape of the buildings ahead of them-all of these tell them where they are, how fast they’re going, and what’s coming ahead. “On a walk down a city sidewalk, a blind person would probably notice the sounds of traffic (cars, trucks, motorcycles), the footsteps and conversations of the people, and the sounds from the buildings, says Deborah Atein, of the National Federation of the Blind of Illinois. Those sounds and textures achieve the same thing for someone who’s blind as colors and lights do for a sighted person.Think of it this way: if you’re sighted and have ever felt your way to the bathroom in the middle of the night, you might have noticed that all the sounds and sensations of the house seem much more noticeable in the dark, without your eyes distracting (分散注意力) you-the ticking clock in your room, the noise of the fridge through the hall. The cold tile (地砖) under your feet tells you that you’re in the bathroom. Finally, you go back to your bed successfully. You’ve guided all the way back without much help from your eyes-and without super-senses!27．The words “compensate for” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “ ________“.A．send for B．make up for C．stand for D．set off for 28．Which of the following can help a blind person walk down a city sidewalk?A．The conversations of the people. B．The shape of the buildings.C．The signs on nearby shops. D．The colors of traffic lights. 29．According to the passage, the writer probably agrees that ________.A．sighted people’s senses become worse after going blindB．sighted people guide the way with the help from hearingC．blind people’s senses are much better than sighted people’sD．blind people have no super powers of hearing and touchScientists know that our weight, mental health and immune (免疫) system are connected to our sleep habits. So are your grades-to a surprising degree, a new study finds. It showed that sleep caused for nearly one-fourth of the difference among students’ grades in a class. So even if you spend hours studying for a test but get too little and inconsistent (不一致的) sleep, you might still do poorly. And boys with poor sleep habits appeared to suffer (遭受) most.Jeffrey Grossman, a scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge wanted to test sleep in the real conditions. People’s sleep timetables are often disordered and unpredictable. He wanted to see if the sleep connects performance even when a study was done with people who kept regular timetables at home. To find out, his team turned to Fitbits. These wristbands can follow how long people sleep and how often they wake up.The researchers invited 100 around 18-year-old students. Each got a Fitbit to wear all term long. At the end of the term, the scientists looked at the st udents’ sleep data (数据). They paid attention to patterns (模式) in the days and weeks before exams. They then compared those patterns to the students’ test scores. The results showed the importance of sleep for students.As expected, teens who stirred (微动) a lot during the night were likely to perform poorly. The same went for those who didn’t get enough sleep. But how much someone slept the night before an exam didn’t affect that person’s grade. So, is pulling an all-nighter before the big test okay? No, it turns out. That’s because there was a third important factor: consistency of sleep a week and even a month before an exam. That means “a student who sleeps seven hours at night, every night, will do better than a student who sleeps 7. 5 hours one night and 6.5 another night,” Grossman says. That was true even when both students got the same amount and quality (质量) ofsleep.Sleep length, quality and consistency together caused 24.4 percent of the difference among the students’ test grades. And these factors appeared especially important for boys. Grossman’s team is not sure why. But boys who didn’t get enough sleep or regular sleep were likely to do worse on an exam than girls who had similar sleep patterns.Helping students get more sleep depends in part on schools starting their days later. But it also comes down to students making sleep a higher priority (优先权). That may require getting more sleep and limiting late evening use of phones and other screens. Even with extracurricular activities, schoolwork and a social life, you need to get your sleep.30．The researchers used Fitbits to ________.A．help the students sleep well B．predict the students’ sleep length C．improve the students’ grades D．collect the students’ sleep data 31．What can we learn from the research?A．Students with the same quality of sleep have no difference in grades.B．Students who sleep for more hours are likely to have higher grades.C．Boys with poor sleeping habits appear to suffer more than girls.D．Staying up before a big test can make a good result in grades.32．According to the writer, the students should ________.A．put sleep in the first placeB．wear wristbands to keep healthyC．pay more attention to test scoresD．compare sleep patterns to their performance33．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．Sleep: Is quality important? B．Sleep: Does it influence grades? C．Sleep: Is 7.5 hours enough? D．Sleep: Does it depend on schoolwork?答案：2023年北京市朝阳区中考一模英语试卷(A)21. C 22. D 23. B(B)24. D 25. B 26. C。

It is called the high definition television or the HD-TV. The main difference between an HD-TV and a normal television is the picture. It is more clear and detailed. This is because the HD-TV has many more points and lines that make a television image .Every color television picture contains thousands of red, green and blue points. They all come together as an image in the eye of the person watching .The points are organized in lines that go across the television screen. There are more than five hundred lines in a normal television .The HD-TV has two times as many .To get this clear picture, you must have a big screen .Experts say people using a small screen will see little difference. The HD-TV also has clear sound. It is like the sound on a CD. All these improvements make an HD-TV very costly. One kind in Japan now sells for more than twenty thousand dollars .A major problem with the HD-TV is its broadcast signal（传播信号）.The signal is bigger than normal because it carries more electronic information.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

I am now married and live in the US. So there is little possibility for me to go home for Christmas. Now I am able to get through Christmas with some moments of joy:First, you are advised to search your area for stores that carry items from your home country or town. Buy food, candles and some other things that mean something to you.Hold on to the traditions from your home that you think are important even if other people think they are stupid. But keep in mind to be open for new traditions from wherever you might be, because those traditions are as important to those people around you as yours are to you. For me that includes celebrating Christmas on the 24th.Call, write Christmas cards, buy gifts and mail them to loved ones, just as if you were there. If you try to pretend (假装) as if the holiday doesn't exist, you are just going to make it worse.Introduce your traditions to your loved ones, especially your kids. It will only enrich their celebration of the holiday to have some unique (独一无二的) traditions in their home. Little by little it will become their tradition and it’s fun for them to try something new.Find clubs, churches or organizations that are from your home country. Chances are that they will have some celebration with some of your traditions which you can join in.Food is one of the most important factors in any kind of tradition. Find the recipe (食谱) of that cake your grandmother used and make it your tradition to bake that particular cake.Call up your parents and get them to send you some of your favorite childhood ornaments (装饰品) for your tree.Pay attention to new traditions, talk to your family about which ones you want to make your own and stick with them. If you are far away from home, Christmas can never be the same as you experienced it before, but it is important to remember these traditions while appreciating the new ones. Keep an open mind and find a compromise between old and new traditions.1．The author spent his 14th Christmas ___________.A．unpleasantly in the US B．joyfully in the USC．unpleasantly in Europe D．joyfully in Europe2．Why does the author advise people to hunt in some special stores?A．Because people can buy some discounted goods there.B．Because people can feel less homesick there.C．Because it's an old Christmas tradition.D．Because they offer goods from the hometown of the people.3．Which of the following statements does the author agree with?A．It's great for children to have some unique traditions.B．People should join in all kinds of clubs to celebrate Christmas.C．People should give up traditions which are stupid in other people's eyes.D．It is popular to celebrate Christmas on the 24th around the world.4．The writer suggests giving a call to parents on Christmas mainly to __________.A．express love to themB．follow the traditionC．ask for some ornamentsD．set an example for childrenB14、Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people who worried about getting older.Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50. In fact, they said, by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old.The fndings came from a survey of more than 340,000 adults in the US. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of 18 and 85.The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness, sadness and worry. They also asked about mental or emotional stress.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25.The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties. Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. The people least likely to report feeling negative emotions were those in their seventies and eighties.The study also showed that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men.The findings appeared in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Researchers said they didn't know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.Professor Stone said the emotional patterns could be linked to changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry.The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age. 1．According to the survey of the Gallup Organization, people are most likely to become happierA．when they are 18 years old B．when they are in their twentiesC．when they come to their old age D．when they are between the ages of 18 and 852．You may have the highest level of stress when you are at the age of _____.A．20 B．25 C．35 D．403．According to Arthur Stone, old people may _______.A．control their behaviors better B．know how to spend money wiselyC．dream about good things every day D．have a positive attitude towards their life4．Who would probably show the greatest interest in the passage?A．Those who suffer from mental stress. B．Those who feel unhappy all the time.C．Those who are worried about getting old. D．Those who are single and unemployed.5．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A．The Older, the Happier B．What Makes the Elder Happy?C．The Young Are Happier Than the Old D．Women Are Easier to Be Happy in LifeC15、1．There are subway lines in the picture.A．2 B．3 C．42．Gina is at Belmont.
