⊙说理小品类Passage1Long long ago a man went to India and he had never been there before.When he got there,he saw a lot of fruit,but much of it was expensive because they couldn’t grow much because there was little water.Finally he saw a big basket of some very red and long fruit.And it was the cheapest in the shop.So he went up and asked,“How much each kilo?”and the shopkeeper said,“Two rupees(卢比).”Two rupees in India was nothing.So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it.But after he ate some of it:oh,my god! His eyes watered,his mouth watered and burnt,and his face became red.He jumped up and down,saying,“Ah!Ah!Ah!”But he still continued to eat the fruit!Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said,“You’re crazy,man.Those are chilies(辣椒)!You can’t eat so many!People use them as a condiment,but only a little bit to put into food for taste.You can’t just eat them like that.”But the silly man said,“No,I can’t stop!I paid money for them,and now I’ll eat them up.It’s my money!”And you think that man was silly,right?We sometimes do a lot of things like that.We spend money,time or effort doing something.And even though it’s been a long time,hard experience tells us it won’t work,and we know there’s no more hope,we still continue just because we’ve put money,time,effort and love into it. Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn’t stop because he didn’t want to waste the money he’d paid.So even if you’ve lost something,let it go and move on.That’s better than continuing to lose.1.The man chose to buy the red and long fruit only because_____A.he hadn’t eaten it beforeB.he was hungryC.it was cheap2.The underlined word“condiment”in Paragraph3probably means_____A.零食B.水果C.调料3.Which of the following sentence is TRUE?A.The man went to India to buy fruit.B.The man didn’t want to waste money.C.The man bought the fruit because it was expensive.4.From the passage,we can learn that_____A.letting something go is better than keeping on losingB.we shouldn’t eat chiliesC.we shouldn’t buy something cheap【文章大意】本文是一篇哲理故事。

More than 100 people attended the party. Local meat and fish were served to the guests and Bobi, who only eats human food.Mr. Costa owned several old-aged dogs in the past, but he never imagined any of his dogs would reach their 30s. What has helped Bobi’s long life? Mr. Costa believes the “quiet and peaceful environment” in which Bobi lives matters. Also Bobi has enjoyed a free and happy life in the nearby forest. But he thinks the most important reason is that the “very active” dog has never been lonely.Now in Bobi’s older years, he finds it difficult to walk. Just like old-aged humans, Bobi sleeps a lot. He lies down in bed at once after eating, although on cold days he chooses to take a short sleep by the fire. He refuses to walk in the forest. Instead he prefers to hang out at home in the yard. Only little Costa, Mr. Costa’s son, can ask him for a walk outside.Mr. Costa, now 38, was only 8 years old when Bobi was born. “Bobi is special because looking at him is like remembering the family members who have already left this world, like my grandparents.” Mr. Costa said.11．Bobi was born on May 11, ________.A．1981B．1992C．201412．What kind of food does Bobi eat?A．Human food.B．Dog food.C．Cat food. 13．According to Mr. Costa, which is the most important reason for Bobi’s long life?A．He lives in a quiet and peaceful environment.B．He’s lived a free and happy life in the forest.C．The “very active” dog has never been lonely.14．In Bobi’s older years, who can ask him for a walk outside?A．Mr. Costa.B．Little Costa.C．Mrs. Costa. 15．What is the best title for the passage?A．Bobi and His Owner Mr. CostaB．Bobi’s Happy Birthday PartyC．Bobi, the World’s Oldest DogPeople are getting more worried about the effect (影响) of fast fashion on the environment.Fast fashion is making clothes in large numbers at a low price. Factories make 100 billion (十亿) pieces of clothing every year. The fast fashion business is doing great harm to the environment. Many of the clothes end up in rubbish bins and are not recycled. A French scientist wrote: “Every year in Europe, four million tons of clothing ends up in the rubbish. Less than 1% of this is recycled.” Another bad effect on the environment is caused by the chemicals (化学物品) used to make clothes. These also cause health problems to people working in clothes factories.The way people buy clothes is making the problem of clothing waste worse. Many years ago, people went to stores and tried clothes on. They spent more time and thought more carefully before buying clothes. They also wore them for longer. Today, people order cheap clothes online. And if they don’t like them, they send them back. Some people buy clothes and never ever wear them. This is leading to a throw-away society.So next time before you buy new clothes, think carefully if you truly need them. If not, don’t buy them! Your action will make a difference to the environment.16．Fast fashion is making ________in large numbers at a low price.A．rubbish B．clothes C．books17．The French scientist wrote that ________of the clothing was recycled.A．less than 1%B．more than 10%C．about 20% 18．What’s the main idea of paragraph 3?A．The way of buying clothes causes a worse clothing waste problem.B．Some people nowadays like to order their clothes on the Internet.C．Some people like to buy lots of clothes but never ever wear them.19．What does the writer want people to do?A．To be more interested in making clothes.B．To buy clothes online instead of in stores.C．To think twice before buying new clothes.20．Which part of a magazine can we read the text from?A．Culture.B．Health.C．Environment.二、阅读回答问题阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

⊙说理小品类Cloze1Alicia was a young woman who liked to exercise for her health.In fact,she walked five kilometers before26every morning,and went swimming once a week at the swimming pool.She didn’t smoke and never27.She didn’t eat chocolate.She didn’t eat sweet and fatty food,28.She weighted herself every day.One day Alicia was on her daily walk when she saw a29sitting in a rocking chair under a tree.He looked very old and his hair was white.He looked thin and weak,and his hands were shaking,30he looked very happy.He smiled at her and said,“Good morning!Lovely day,isn’t it?”He had a wide smile31his face,and his eyes shone with happiness.But Alicia saw that he did not have teeth.“Good morning!”replied Alicia.“Yes,it is a lovely day.”Alicia thought he32very old and wise.She thought he must be at least90 years old!She decided to ask him about the33of a happy old age.“I hope you don’t34me asking,”she said,“but what is your secret for being so happy at your age?I hope I can look as happy as you do35I am your age.”The man in the rocking chair said,“My secret for36?I smoke twenty packets of cigarettes every week,and drink three bottles of wine every day.I eat hamburgers and chocolates whenever I want.I never eat vegetables.I never walkanywhere and I never play sports.I sit at home every day.”Alicia was37.She didn’t expect the man to give her an answer like that. She wondered how the man got to be so old when he did38wrong.She thought he should be39and unhappy.Perhaps she was wrong.Maybe,she thought,people could live a long happy life40eating well or doing lots of exercise.“How old are you?”she asked.“It’s my birthday today,”said the man.“I’m forty-seven!”26.A.lunch B.breakfast C.dinner D.supper27.A.exercised B.drank C.worked D.slept28.A.too B.also C.either D.still29.A.man B.woman C.boy D.girl30.A.so B.but C.and D.or31.A.in B.with C.at D.on32.A.saw B.looked C.listened D.found33.A.secret B.dream C.plan D.future34.A.stand B.mind C.allow D.enjoy35.A.when B.since C.though D.for36.A.health B.success C.happiness D.life37.A.surprised B.worried C.excited D.relaxed38.A.something B.anything C.everything D.nothing39.A.angry B.serious C.quiet D.sick40.A.through B.from C.without D.by【文章大意】本文讲述一个注重饮食健康、也爱好晨炼的女孩见到一个“老人”，年龄虽大，看起来却很快乐的。
通过交谈得知，这位不注重饮食和锻炼的“老人”却只有47岁。
【答案及解析】26.B由时间状语“every morning”及常识可知，她是在每天早饭前进行散步五公里。
27.B第一段中介绍Alicia健康的生活方式和饮食习惯，所以这一句的意思是“她不吸烟也不喝酒”。
28.C either用于否定句句末；too用于肯定句句末；also用于肯定句句中。
故选C。
29.A从下文的描述可知，he is a man。
30.B由上文：他看起来又瘦又弱，并且手一直在晃动，与后文的“happy”形成转折关系。
31.D on one’s face在某人的脸上，是固定词组。
32.B选B。
look系动词，看起来，old and wise做系动词look的表语。
句意“他看起来年纪很大而且很博学。
33.A从下文“but what is your secret for being so happy at your age?”可以判断用secret。
34.B句意：我希望你不要介意我的提问。
mind sb.doing sth.介意某人做某事。
stand意为“忍受、站立”，allow意为“允许”，enjoy意为“享受”，这三项都不符合句意。
35.A句意：我希望当我在你这个年龄时。
when当…时候，引导时间状语从句；since后面一般跟“过去时间”；“for+时间段”往往用于完成时；though引导让步状语从句。
36.C根据上一段第二句话“what’s your secret for being so happy at your age?”可以看出是“快乐的秘密”。
happy的名词形式为happiness.故选C。
37.A由下文两句话可知，对于“老人”的回答，她很惊奇。
38.C词义辨析。
根据倒数第四段中这位老人说的话，可以知道Alicia认为他做的每一件事都对身体不好。
39.D Alicia认为这位老人的这种生活方式、饮食习惯会使他生病或不高兴。
angry生气的，serious严肃的，quiet安静的，sick生病的。
40.C Alicia以为他90岁左右，她误以为不用吃的很好或不用进行很多的锻炼就能够生活长寿、快乐。
