Reading comprehension:(共50分)A.Choose the best answer: (12分)I used to hunt and killed quite a few deer. There was great excitement in waiting and shooting.One cold morning in winter, I went alone to a hillside. I carried my gun, some hot coffee, and three thick sandwiches.I found a natural hiding place, cleared the snow and settled down. It was very cold, but I had warm clothing on. I sat there waiting for about an hour. Nothing showed. I ate two sandwiches and drank a little coffee. The place was really quiet.Suddenly, a big beautiful buck(雄鹿)appeared less than 20 feet away from me. There was no cover near him. Surely I couldn't miss. The fact that I couldn't miss made me wait for him to realize I was there, I waited for him to run with a start.To my surprise, he came towards me! He was curious (妤奇的), I suppose, or maybe he was stupid. He must have known about men and their guns, for this was no youngster (幼小动物), but a fully grown-up one. However, this buck came closer, and I still waited. He kept putting one foot before the other. His big eyes never moved from my face. His wonderful head with antlers(鹿角)was clearly in sight.I was getting a bit nervous now. A big buck can do a lot of damage. Well, he walked right up to where I was sitting. Then he stopped and looked at me!What happened next is hard to believe. But it all seemed quite natural. I reached up (问前伸手) and scratched his head right between the antlers. And he liked it. That big, wild, beautiful buck bent(使…弯曲)his head. He actually asked for more.I scratched his head and body. His nose touched my shoulder. I fed him my last sandwich.Well, he finally went his way, down the hill. Shot him? Not me. You wouldn't have either, not after that. I just watched him go-a strong buck carrying a proud head.I picked up my gun, and started walking back. Suddenly, I heard the shots(开枪)-two of them. If you've hunted much, you know two shots, one after the other, which mean a kill. I had forgotten that there were other hunters around.You will understand why I gave up hunting from that day on.69. One cold morning, the writer hid in a ________ place to wait.A) clean B) warm C) quiet D) beautiful70. The underlined word ‘start' in paragraph 4 means .A) the beginning of the hunt B) a sudden movement of the bodyC) a signal to move D) something surprising71. When the buck came closer, the writer became a bit nervous because_________.A) it was his first time to see such a big buckB) it was a fully grown-up buckC) it knew a lot about the hunter and his gunD) it can do a lot of damage72. What made the writer feel hard to believe?A) The buck liked being scratched on its head by him.B) The buck didn't do any harm to him.C) The buck kept looking at him for a long time.D) The buck liked eating his sandwich.73. In the author's opinion, the two shots means ___________.A) there were other hunters around thenB) someone started hunting animalsC) the buck was killedD) some children were learning to shoot74. The best title of this passage is __________.A) The Day I Stopped Hunting B) An Unusual Hunting DayC) Great Excitement in Shooting D) To Give Up Hunting or NotB. Cboose the words or expressions and complete the passage: (12分)For thousands of years, no other country has been as mysterious (神秘的) to the world as this one. It makes you 75 what's inside the pyramids, how people made mummies and why the Great Sphinx stands there to guard the pyramids. This is Egypt, one of the oldest civilizations(文明世界) in the world.Built along the world's longest river, the Nile, Egypt is the second most populous(人口众多的) country in Africa. As a land rich in beauty, history and 76 , ancient Egypt left behind many treasures for the world.The solar calendar we use today actually came from Egypt Around 4000 BC, Egyptians used a calendar that was 365 days long. They had 12 months made of 30 days each. And they made the _ 77 _ five days a festival. .Egyptian characters are some of the oldest characters in the world. It looks similar to our oracle bone inscriptions(甲骨文).Their characters influenced many others _ 78 the Latin alphabet we use today.When it comes to medical science, Egyptians left us mummies, which we explore to see how they kept a dead body preserved(随腐的) for such a long time. Egyptians covered bodies with a special salt called natron. This makes the body 79 , which keeps it looking lifelike. Some mummies are more than 2,000 years old.Today, this land of mysteries still attracts many people. Most of them want to get a taste of the great pyramids. Scientists have found more than 130 pyramids in Egypt, according to National Geographic. The 80 is the Great Pyramid of Khufu in Giza. It is about 138.8m tall, which is almost as tall as 40-story building. The Great Pyramid of Khufu is the most famousancient wonder of the world that is still standing today.75.

Read the passage and fdl in the blanks with proper words: (14分)Self reflection means slowing down and calming yourself, including calming your mind. By being calm and going slowly you give your brain a chance to evaluate(评价)the input (输入) it has already r____81_____.Some people prefer to do these self reflections only in their mind. Others keep a journal(杂志) or written notes. Either method works, depending on your personal learning. Whether written or mental(精神上的), the process is the same.School t _____82_____are often divided into chapters and units of study. This makes it easier for someone to begin the process of self reflection. Look for the times when you complete a unit of study in the subjects you are leaming, such as math, social studies, science and art. Sometimes you know the unit is o_____83_____ because there is some kind of test or quiz. Use these natural breaks as chances to stop and reflect. Find a quiet place. You can even be sitting at your d_____84______ at school when you finish something early and the other students are still working. If you are going to take notes, take out paper or your reflection journal. Write down some notes on the new things that you l (85) in the unit. Let your mind think about the notes you have written and make some connections. Sometimes just pausing (暂停)to think deeply allows your brain to make connections. Having lots of connections allows your brain to q (86) retrieve(检索)information when you need it again.Next, think about things that you are unsure of. For example, maybe you learned a new way to solve a math problem, but you're not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help you remember to look for answers the next time you are working with the s (87) topic.Self reflection is an essential skill for a successful student. If you have never taken the time to reflect, try it now.D. Answer the questions: (12分)Mary Kay is a well-known American businesswoman.

2023中考英语逆袭冲刺名校模拟真题特快专递第二期专题04 阅读回答问题10篇(2022·上海普陀·二模)Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)Working as a part-time assistant in a shop is a way for young people to earn some extra money. For me, it is more than twenty dollars per hour.Like other eighteen-year-old girls, I chose to work in a clothing shop. On the first day, I was trained to fold and organize platform after platform of clothes. The work didn’t seem easy to me because everything had to be done in an accurate way. I felt a little impatient because I couldn’t get it right the first couple of times. The manager told me not to be impatient and taught me skills on how to finish the work well. After hundreds of tries, I had the clothes folded perfectly. Then it took me thirty minutes to get them all looking uniform. Now, I fold and organize clothes in the shop every day, and I am able to do them well. Through this experience, I’ve learned patience can help me in the work.Helping customers and connecting with them are the things I love most in the shop. About three weeks ago, I helped an old lady who was looking for a special dress. She told me exactly what she was picturing—a blue dress with long sleeves and a lace neck. We didn’t have any such dress, and when I explained that to her, she wasn’t very happy. Instead of getting impatient, I tried getting to learn about her interest first. We shared our love of the fashion show. I also asked her what the dress was for, so I could help her get the clothes she liked. Everything I did worked. She found other items she liked and finally bought some new blouses and jeans worth of $300. This experience has taught me how to meet customers’ needs.I’ve experienced frustrations and challenges in the work. To do well, I must learn to deal with them. The work experience changed me a lot and helped me in other aspects of my life as well.1.How old was the writer when she worked in a clothing shop?____________________________________________2.Why did the writer think the work was difficult?____________________________________________3.Who gave the writer a hand and taught her how to finish the work well?____________________________________________4.What was the old lady looking for at first?____________________________________________5.How did the writer manage to meet the customers’ needs in Paragraph 3?____________________________________________6.According to the writer, what changes could help her in other aspects of her life?(No more than 15 words)____________________________________________(2022·上海崇明·模拟预测)Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答问题)“I’m Captain Carter Harrison. I’m here to visit Mrs. Melissa Harrison,”said Mr. Harrison to the front desk. “Oh, Melissa has been asking about you all week. She is looking forward to seeing you. Here is your visitor ID,” the receptionist said. “She is in Room 3417.”The young man came to the door and slowly opened it. Inside, an elderly woman lying in bed slowly opened her eyes. “Daddy,” she said quietly.“Oh! Melissa has aged so much since I last saw her a few months ago!” Harrison thought to himself. Of course, a few months’ ship time means that years have passed on Earth.“How was your trip, Daddy? Did you bring me back anything?” Melissa asked. She welcomed him home excitedly – just like a little girl. “Sure. Look at these – a coin from Planet 8 and a diamond from Planet 173.” She smiled and nodded (点头示意) towards her shelf. Hundreds of small stones and statues lay across its top. He placed the objects with the rest of her collections.Melissa was sleeping now. Harrison pulled a chair up to her bedside. Warm tears filled his eyes. “I am sorry, Melissa,” he said softly, “Your grandparents brought you up to be a perfect young woman, but I missed your first steps. I was asked to work as a captain for only two years. However, we had lost so many men in the First Space War. I couldn’t just leave my soldiers. I must help protect our planet.”Harrison held her hand in silence for a long time. He knew this was possible the last time he would see his daughter alive. It would be five years’ Earth time before he came back from space again.There would be another 30 years before he retired, Harrison thought. He would lose hundreds of years of Earth time. And each time he returned, he would learn that his loved ones had died and new ones had been born.Harrison thought for a moment and wrote her daughter a note. It said, “ 6 ”. Then he kissed her and quietly left the room.Outside, he caught an air taxi. He took a deep breath and climbed into his taxi.7.The elderly woman was Captain Carter Harrison’s mother, wasn’t she?___________________________________________________________8.What did Harrison bring back to Melissa?___________________________________________________________9.Who took care of Melissa when she was a little girl?___________________________________________________________10.What did Harrison do during the time he was asked to work as a captain?___________________________________________________________11.How soon would Harrison come back to the Earth again?___________________________________________________________12.Harrison wrote her daughter a note before he left.

The author is Bill Bryson. Bryson returned to the US after 20 years in Britain and decided to get familiar with his native country by walking the Appalachian Trail(阿巴拉契亚山道).The trail, about 3,500 kilometers long, is popular with thousands of hikers. It goes from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mountain Katahdin in Maine. The story offers a landscape of silent forests and beautiful lakes. But as a writer with comic genius, Bryson also finds humor in the struggles that he and his old friend, Stephen Katz, went through.Lots of silly things happen along the way. At the beginning, Bryson reads about the dangers of the wild and stays awake for hours each night, because he is worried he will be killed by bears. Later the two middle-aged men try to climb a mountain but get caught in a snow-storm. They get lost more than once, but they always manage to find their way back to the trail. They also meet a lot of strange people.But the story is more than just a laugh-out-loud hike. Bryson also talks about acid rain(酸雨), the hunting ofbirds, and damage to the ecosystem(生态系统). It’s a mix of the silly and the serious, a fresh way of getting readers to actually care about the environment problems. As the website Book Browse said in a review, the book “will certainly become a modern classic of travel literature”.13.Bill Bryson comes from Britain, doesn’t he?______________________________________14.How long is the Appalachian Trail?______________________________________15.Why does Bryson stay awake for hours each night during his life on the trail?______________________________________16.What happens to Bryson and his friend when they try to climb a mountain?______________________________________17.What is the implied(隐含的)meaning of the underlined sentence?The book not only __________________, but also __________________.18.Please give a proper title for the passage.

Theykept telling me that their kids were the REAL superheroes.”Since it was Wonder Woman that created the idea. Rossi decided to focus on the superheroes that appear with her in the movie Justice League. To make the photos more meaningful, he matched each child with a superhero. They had the most in common.●Teagan Pettit was born with only half a heart. The nine-year-old loves and respects Superman. The photographer says, “Superman and Teagan both have hearts of steel!”●The second member was Kayden Kinckle. The five-year-old uses prosthetics (假肢) to walk. To Rossi, Kayden’s perfect superhero was Cyborg, who was a healthy boy before a terrible accident, forcing his father to keep him alive with robotic parts.●Simon Fullmer, who suffers from a rare type of nerve cancer (神经癌), is fond of Batman. According to his mom, the five-year-old never complains. Since the brave boy is dealing with his “enemy” like a true superhero, Rossi, thought he was the perfect Batman.19.According to the passage, who is a real superhero?________________________________________20.What did Rossi get from families with children who are fighting against diseases?________________________________________21.What’s Teagan Pettit’s trouble?________________________________________22.Why did Rossi think Kayden Kinckle was similar to Cyborg?________________________________________23.What does the underlined word “enemy” refer to?________________________________________24.Why does Rossi think Simon Fullmer is brave?

I couldn’t wait to tell my parents. Before I could open my mouth, my mother looked at my book and frowned (皱眉).“Another new book, Mia?” she said. “You should be spending more time doing maths. Something you can actually get good at.” Then she became homesick. “You know when I was your age, I used to attend my brother’s maths lessons...”Yesh, yeah, yeah. I didn’t have time for this.“I’m not you, Mom,” I yelled. The words came shooting out of my mouth, and my mom was shocked.“I’m sorry. I just mean... Maybe I like something else.”“Like what?” she asked. She put her broom down and crossed her arms. I bit my lip.“Like writing?”“English writing?” she asked, “like it was the most useless thing in the world, like I’d said basket weaving?”I nodded.“You gotta be native at English. And I’m sorry, but we are just not. You can, however, be native at maths.”“I don’t want to be native at maths...” I said. My mother frowned.“You’re not getting it, are you?” she said.

Talking to someone who listens but is not a close family member is very important.”What is a life coach?An athlete improves because he trains with a coach. A life coach can also guide you to success. A life coachencourages you to think not only about what you want, but also about how you are going to get it. Until now, life coaches have helped adults, for example business executives who need to make decisions or parents who want some advice on bringing up their children. Now it’s the turn of our young people.Life Coach Simone WaltzSimon Waltz, a former radio producer, set up her life coaching company five years ago. “I offer teenagers a place to talk, to decide on their future plans and to sort out problems, ” says Waltz.

Now she hopes to get into a top university. Irina now feels more confident about everything. She has even taken up exercise for the first time in years.Life coach Mo AhmedMo Ahmed has coached children as young as five years old, “It could be something as simple as leaning multiplication tables—asking them how they’re going to do it, how are they going to make it fun?” Mo has also helped teenager Regina who was having problems making friends when she moved to a new school. They talked together about the things Regina really enjoyed doing.

Sticky Fingers, an experienced burglar now serving a 6-year prison sentence, agreed to talk to our reporter.Reporter: Sticky, what do you look for before burglarizing a house?Fingers: Well, first, I make sure no one is home and no one is watching. I nose around neighbourhoods where people don’t seem to know each other very well. That way, I won’t be noticed. Next, I try to find a house where the people are on holiday and not likely to return soon. I do this by looking for houses with no lights on in the evening. Then I look at doorways. They’re a sure giveaway(暴露). When newspapers, mail, and deliveries are piled up, I can tell that people have been away from days. I can even count how many days from the number of newspapers.Reporter: 4 ?Fingers: Well, usually it’s easy and effortless. Lots of times people leave a window open, or doors and windows unlocked. Then I just slip in, when I have to break in, I look for a patio(露台) door on the first floor. They usually have weak locks and you can force them easily. I watch out for dogs, though.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The emotional stress that causes chest pains and breathlessness can occur in moments of joy as well as anger, grief and fear, a Swiss study suggests.Three-quarters of cases of takotsubo cardiomyopathy, a change in the shape of the heart’s left ventricle, which can be fatal, are caused by stress.The University Hospital Zurich study, in the European Heart Journal, suggests about one in 20 cases is caused by joy.The condition is normally temporary and people are generally fine afterwards.In the study of 1750 patients,researchers discovered heart problems caused by; a birthday party; a son’s wedding; meeting a friend after 50 years; becoming a grandmother; a favorite rubby team winning a game; winning a casino jackpot or a computerized tomography(CT)scan giving the all-clear from another condition.The study also suggested most cases were in post-menopausal women.Dr. Jelena Ghadri, one of the researchers, said : “ We have shown that the triggers for takossubo syndrome can be more varied than previously thought.“ A takostsubo syndrome patient is no longer the classic ‘ broken-hearted’ patient, and the disease can be preceded by positive emotions too.“clinicians should be aware of this and also consider that patients who arrive in the emergency department with signs of heart attacks, such as chest pain and breathlessness, but after a happy event or emotion, could be suffering from takotsubo syndrome just as much as a similar patient pressing after a negative event.”‘ More research needed’She said it was likely both sad and happy events shared a common “ emotional pathway” leading to the condition.Prof Peter Weissberg, the medical director of the British Heart foundation, said: “ Takotsubo syndrome is a rare event.“This study suggests that in a very few cases, the triggering event may be a happy one.“Much more research is needed to understand how such emotional events can trigger temporary heart damage in a few susceptible individuals.”48.What is the main idea of this passage?A. Some syndromes are difficult to treatB. Joy as well as sadness can bring harm to healthC. People are advised nor to encounter different emotionsD. Research is needed to explore the cause of mental illness49.What does takotsubo probably mean in the passage?A.The name of a diseaseB.The application of a diseaseC.The treatment for a diseaseD.The description of a disease50.Which of the following my NOT be the cause of takostubo?A.Being admitted to a universityB.Going to school every dayC.Witnessing a serious accidentD.Winning a lottery of 5 million(B)Women in most countries of the world today can vote and be elected to public office the same basis as men. But it took centuries of work on the part of individuals and organizations to achieve those rights, often against strong opposition.In England, women petitioned for the right to vote as early as the 15th century. But it wasn’t until the 19th that most formal women suffrage movements began to take place. New Zealand was the first country to grant women voting rights in 1863, followed by Australia in federal elections in 1902. Other countries did it in stages: Swedish women with property could vote in city elections in 1862, but weren’t given full voting privileges until 1921. Finland gave widows and unmarried women local voting rights in 1865 and granted universal suffrage to women in 1906.The United States and Britain paralleled each other in their suffrage movements. The United States passed the 19th amendment to its Constitution in 1920, giving women full voting privileges and Britain and Ireland followed suit in 1928. Ecuador became the first Latin American country to allow women to vote in 1929, with some restrictions. The United Nations accelerated the movement in 1945 when it signed the UN Charter, and international document that clearly defined equal rights for women.However, even today in some developing countries, women are looked upon as inferior and are still not given many of the same social benefits as men.51.The following countries gave the women full voting rights in the 1920s EXCEPT ___A.SwedenB. The USC. BritainD. Ireland52.The word “ petitioned” is closest in meaning to “ ___”A.waitedB.wishedC.suppliedD. urged53.What can we infer from the passage?A.Women can fight for the suffrage they are dreaming of.B.Women should have confidence in their pursuit of happinessC.Women were and are still denied equal rights to men in historyD.Women’s movement has gone through various stages without much promise(C)People all over the world listen to romantic music, read romantic stories and have romantic time. The team “ romantic” in this context usually refers to feeling of love. But Romanticism with a capital R refers to a period of major changes that affected the arts, philosophy and history for more than a hundred years, starting in the late 18th century.The Romantic Movement was a reaction to the ideas of the previous epoch-with its emphasis on reason. It was named after the so-called romance languages, such as French, Spanish and Italian, that were developed from Latin after the breakdown of the Roman Empire. The initiators of the Romantic Movement promoted a taste for folk tales, poetry and music, which had long been neglected in favor of polished classical art forms. In politics, too, people wanted changes so it was a revolutionary time in many countries. It was also a time when people needed heroes with the passion and power to create a new order on the ruins of the old world. Napoleon, who initially fought against the monarchy in France, was an example.In the arts, Romanticism was an epoch of great creativity, individualism and emotional intensity. Composers such as Schubert, Schumann, Weber and Chopin modified classical music forms to gain more freedom of expression, lord Byron’s Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables, and Alexander Pushkin’s Eurgene Onegn are typical examples of Romantic literature.54.Romantic is a word used to describe __A.a feeling of loveB.an experience of the beautifulC.a dream of the attainableD.a gratitude for others’ kindness55.According to the passage, Romanticism refers to ___A.great changes in historyB.what happened in the mid-18th centuryC.a period of major changes in many fieldsD.a special period in the history of literature56.Which of the following is NOT the concern of the Romantic Movement?A.SentimentB. ReasonC. InnovationD. Revolution(D)Entrepreneurs come in all shapes and sizes-the dynamic, the cautious and the greedy. But all of them hold an equal fascination for us. How do they do it? What’s their secret? Some of the world’s biggest corporations would like to know, too. For entrepreneurs is in and these days everyone wants to be an entrepreneur.But an entrepreneur is not what your are. It’s what you become, and real entrepreneur exist only in retrospect. At first, nobody takes them seriously. They’re crackpots, dreamers, unemployables. And by the time they’ve finally earned the respect of the business community, they’ve already made it. So cancel the classes on entrepreneurship and throw out your business plan, for the road to entrepreneurial success can’t be mapped our in advance. You get there one sale at a time. In the beginning, only the entrepreneur needs to see the goal, nobody else. And the goal is quite simple; you get an idea; you identify your customer. You make a sale. Then you make another and another and another until your office in the spare bedroom has turned into the tower block in Manhattan you always wanted. Forget about marketing strategy at this stage. What you need first is a steady cash flow. Bide your time, focus in the tittle things. That’s how it works. Big companies are just small companies that got bigger.Take Richard Branson, for instance. For the founder of Virgin, the first ten years were a struggle, with his company suffering some cash flow problems until as late as 1980. By then, the Virgin Group was running eighty different operations, none of them making large amounts ofmoney and some of them losing money hand over fist. Yet in 1992 Branson’s music business alone sold for€560 million.Or take Nicolas Hayek, the man who invented the Swatch and brought the Swiss watch-making industry back from the dead. Hayek took on Japanese market leaders. Seiko and Citizen, and beat them on quality and price. Today the Swatch Group, which includes many famous names such as Omega. Longines, Calvin Klein and Tissot,sells 114 million watches a year. With annual sales of over for billion Swiss frances and a twenty=five percent share of the global market, the group is now by far the largest manufacturer and distributor of finished watches in the world.The Swacth was a 20th century icon and some of the highly collectable early designs are now classed as art and fetch more than€20,000-not bad for a plastic watch.So what is it that makes a good entrepreneur on the scale of a Bill Gates, a Jeff Bezos or a Michael Fell? Clearly, not he same thing that makes a good manager. For good managers tend to some from fairly conventional backgrounds. They’re the bright kids everyone knew world do well, born organizers, who rise through the ranks to reach the top of large corporations. But the budding entrepreneur is more likely to be an outsider, a troublemaker, a rebel who drops out of college to get a job, discovers a fair for building companies from nothing, gets bored quickly and moves on. Most of all, the entrepreneur will be a master of risk-management. For risk doesn’t mean the same thing to the entrepreneur as it does to the res of us. The king of corporate raiders, Sir James Goldsmith, summed it up best: “ The ultimate of risk,” he said, “ is not taking a risk.” And that’s probably how he got to be a dollar billionaire.57.Which of following about entrepreneurs is TRUE?A.They have special skills in doing thingsB.They are inclined to keep feet on the ground at firstC.They are especially knowledgeable in marketingD.They usually seek suitable advice on business related58.According to the passage, __ is the most important factor in ensuring the smooth operation ofa business.A.A cash flowB.

Many experts have suggested redesigning classroom f 81 , but a Swedish school system wants to take things a step further. Vittra, which operates 30 schools in Sweden, is trying to make sure that learning takes place e 82 on campus by getting rid of classrooms altogether.The newest Vittra school, Telefonplan, opened its doors last August. Designed by the company, Rosan Bosch, the Stockholm-area campus seems more l 83 a creative space than a school. Students can work i 84 on their laptops while relaxing on one of the "sitting islands". If they need to work with other students on a project, they can take advantage of spaces like "the village"—a tiny house for group work—or the more open "organic conversation area".Jannie Jeppesen, the head teacher of Vittra Telefonplan writes on the school's website that the design is intended to develop children's curiosity and creativity and o 85 them opportunities for both teamwork and independent time.Vittra doesn't award traditional grades, either—students are taught in groups according to their level—so making full u 86 of different teaching and learning situations is a important.The open nature of the campus and the unusual furniture arrangements show the school's idea that "children play and learn on the basis of their needs, curiosity, and interest." That's t 87 for kids all over the world.D.Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分)He felt strange when he went back to his college in Oxford. He had left the college 25 years before, and he had never been back. As he walked up from station, he slowly began to feel the same excitement that he had felt when first went there as an 18-year-old boy. When he received the email inviting him to the reunion (重聚) for the people of his year at college, he had felt only happy and excited. Now, as he got nearer to the college, he was nervous, yes, definitely nervous. Perhaps his classmates had all been more successful than him, or at least earned more money than him.He was happy in his job as a university lecturer, but the others were probably all lawyers, accountants and cankers. Who would be there at the reunion? He wondered. He was proud that he had studied there and glad to be back, but at the same time sad that the college was no longer part of his life, sad that he couldn’t bring back those days which meant so much to him.The porter gave him a key to a room in the college. He couldn’t believe it. It was his old room. As he walked through the door, he was surprised to feel a tear rolling down his checks. He had never thought he would feel like this. He tried to remind himself that his times there had not always been happy, that there had been problems too. It was almost time for dinner, so he put on his black dinner jacket and bow tie and walked down to the dining hall, wondering if any of his old friends would be there.He walked into the dining hall, and there she was. She had changed a little. The smile which had made him fall in love with her was still the same. But she was sitting with the man she had chosen to marry, the man she had chosen to marry instead of him. He had thought the pain had gone, but it hit him in the stomach like a boxer’s punch. Was it wrong for him to have come back? Or should he ________?

上海中考英语强化阅读习题(一)The 17th-century Irish farmer Rober Cook was the most unusual person in County Waterford. he always wore white linen. His underwear, night clothes and shirts were all in white, and so were his suits, coats and hats. He became so famous for his clothes and his love for whitethat he was known all over Ireland as “Linen Cook”.He refused to have any brown cows in the field of his farm at Cappoquin and even his horses had to be the same pure white as his clothes.Cook was a eager vegetarian and refused to eat the flesh of any animal or to wear anything produced by an animal.A fox which attacked (袭击) his chickens was not killed when it was caught. Instead, he gave it a talk on the evils (罪恶) of murder, then offered it a sporting chance by making it run through a line of his farm workers, who had sticks.Cook had a long and healthy life and showed that “water for drink, vegetables for food and linen and other plant life for clothing were enough to live on.”He died in 1726 when he was over eighty years old and was buried in a white linen shroud (寿衣).1.

Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at ‘bed and breakfast’ houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.“We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.”I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought‘VACANCIES’ meant ‘holidays’, because the Spanish word for‘holidays” is ‘vacaciones’. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said ‘VACANCLES’, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said ‘NO VACANCLES’, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses wereall full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word ‘DIVERSION’ means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word ‘DIVERSION’ on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hold.English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris. when someone offered me some more. coffee, I said ‘Thank you’ in French. I meant that I would like some more, However , to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that ‘Thank you’ in French means ‘Mo, thank you.’1. My Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.A. learning EnglishB. finding places to stay in EnglandC. driving their car on English roadsD. going to England by car2. I suggested that they stay at bed and breakfast houses because ______.A. they would be able to practise their EnglishB. it would be much cheaper than staying in hotelsC. it would be convenient for them to have dinnerD. there would be no problem about finding accommodation there3. “NO VACANCIES” in English means ______.A. no free roomsB. free roomsC. not away on holidayD. holidays4. If you see a road sign that says ‘Diversion’, you will______.A. fall into a holeB. have a lot of fun and enjoy yourselfC. find that the road is blocked by crowds of peopleD. have to take a different road5.

They are part of a new addiction called Internet addiction. Internet addicts spend at l 82 thirty to forty hours online every week. The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug use. People lose control of the time they spend on the Internet. The use of Internet can be an addiction like drug use.For example, one college student was missing for several days. His friends were w 83 , and they called the police. The police found the student in the computer lab: he was surfing the net for several days straight.S 84 show that about 6% to 10% of Internet users become addicted. And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them. They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world of friends and family.Is "surfing the net" a h 85 or an addiction for you? You may have a problem if you have these symptoms:● You do not go to important family activities or you do not do school work because you like to spend hours on the Internet.● You can't wait for your n 86 online time. You plan to spend a short time online, but then you spend several hours.● You go out with your friends less and less.What is the s 87 ? There is advice to help Internet addicts. Some experts recommend that people set strict limits in their time for Internet use. You have to control it. The Internet shouldn’t control you.D. Read the passage and answer the questions:(12分)Playing is serious business for children. In fact, it’s what they do best! Ask them why they do it, and kids will probably say, “Because it’s fun!” But it’s much more than that. It’s also good for them.Studies show that from birth babies begin learning through play. They use their five senses to get to know their new world. Touching allows them to discover how different things feel. Brightly coloured toys and clothing help develop a baby’s sense of sight (视觉). When small children choose which toy to play with, they begin developing their abilities in making decisions.Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination (想象力). Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a high-tech (高科技) toy. That’s because a box can become anything a child imagines it to be.Crayons, paints and Play-Doh (彩色塑泥) are also good because they allow children to create. Traditional building blocks teach important pre-math skills.Playing doesn’t become any less important once children start school. Many valuable lessons about life are learned on the school playground. Kids learn how to share, take turns and play by the rules.Health officials give another good reason for why children should play. Kids need exercise, and playing is the most natural way to get. The average student spends several hours a day in front of a TV or computer screen. Playing outside is much healthier. And studies show that active children get better grades, too.Believe it or not, play is important for adults too. More and more companies are realizing the value of playful work environment. Pixar, for example, encourages its employees to relax their minds and bodies through play. The company provides its workers with a game room, a pool and other fun areas. Pixar believes playful employees are more creative. Who knows? Maybe the idea for the animated film “cars” started out in the game room.88.When do babies begin learning the new world?________________________________________________________________89.Why is an empty box sometimes more fun than a high-tech toy?________________________________________________________________90.What do kid learn when they choose which toys to play with?________________________________________________________________91.Studies show that playful employees are more creative in companies, don’t they?________________________________________________________________92.What is a playful kid like?________________________________________________________________93.What suggestions will you give to those parents with kids?(give at least two sentences)________________________________________________________________94.

Reading comprehension(阅读理解):(共50 分)A. Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案):(12 分)Benjamin Banneker was born a few months before another great American-George Washington. Benjamin was black, but he was not a slave. He and his mother and his grandmother were free. Benjamin's grandmother came from England. In America she got a job and worked for many years to pay for her boat trip across the ocean. After working many more years, she saved enough money to buy a farm. Benjamin lived with her for a while. She taught him to read and write and do arithmetic (算术).Benjamin's neighbors knew that he was clever. They were not surprised when he built a large wooden clock. He made each piece after studying a small pocket watch. The clock made him famous, for it was one of the first clocks built in America. People from other places began to send hard problems of all kinds for Benjamin to settle.Thomas Jefferson learned of Benjamin Banneker's ability to settle hard problems. He asked Banneker to help build the city that was to be the capital of the United States-Washington, D. C. Banneker worked hard on the plans for the city. He marked where the streets and buildings-the Capital (美国国会大厦), the White House, and many others? Should be built.Later, L'Enfant, the Frenchman who had designed the new city, had a quarrel, and went back to France in anger. He took all of the plans with him.

In order to create social trust and prevent scammers(骗子)from wrongly accusing good-natured people, the Chinese Health Ministry recently released a set of guidelines on how to deal with an elderly person who has fallen down.The guidelines state that i 81 of rushing to help them, you are supposed to talk to the person to see what is wrong and to look for head i 82 . However, some find this a bit strange as helping others in need in public isn’t very common. In fact, last month in Wuhan, an 88-year-old man slipped and fell in public. Over a 90-minute period, a crowd gathered but no one touched or helped him. The cause of death was seen to be preventable if anyone had helped him. So, why are people afraid to help those in need in China?S 83 , it’s unbelievable that the injured may accuse their helpers of causing the accident in the first place.This was the c 84 in Nanjing in 2006. A person helped an elderly lady only to be accused of pushing her down in the first place. The court ruled that the old lady would receive 40,000 yuan for the accident. On top of this, the Shanghai Daily recently did a survey a 85 people whether they would help an elderly person if they fell down. Ninety percent said no due to fear of legal problems.The biggest problem with helping others is the f 86 of legal trouble. With this in mind, the government should c 87 an environment that protects people from scammers. The laws favor the elderly in a way that allows a few greedy types to ruin it for everyone.D.Answer the questions. (根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12 分)Lee Ching loved tennis. He had a few old balls and an old racquet (球拍) that his grandfather had given him. Lee was the happiest when he was practising his shots against a wall at his house. He hoped that he would become a famous player one day.However, there was one problem—Lee’s family was very poor. This meant that there was not enough money to pay for tennis lessons, the white clothes or a new racquet and balls. Lee had tried playing with the other players in his town, but they had just made fun of his old racquet and shabby clothes. So, Lee spent his time watching them play and then practising exactly what he had seen them do, against the wall at home. The manager of the tennis courts, Mr. Song, had seen Lee watching the tennis, day after day, and decided to find out why. When he heard Lee’s story, he had pity on him and offered to give Lee tennis lessons.Through the lessons, Mr. Song realized that Lee knew a lot about tennis, so he asked him to coach the younger children’s tennis class; this time Lee was paid for his job. He was able to buy new clothes and a new racquet and soon people were asking him to join their games. His tennis skills were improving all the time.Lee became a very good tennis player. So good that Mr. Song invited him to play in a competition at the town courts. Lee did not know that Mr. Song had invited a world-class tennis coach, Mr. Wei, to watch Lee play. Lee played very well and won all his matches. Mr. Wei was so impressed that he offered Lee a place at his tennis school.For many years, Lee worked hard at his tennis. Then came the day when Lee played in his first world championship. The young man he would be playing against was the world champion. Lee was nervous. The young man played very well. He was too good for Lee to beat. So Lee came second in the competition. But Lee didn’t mind. There was plenty of time for winning in the future.
