What: Silent Dinner Parties （SDPs） were dreamed up by artist Honi Ryan as a studen t in Germany in 2007．The SDP is a normal dinner party, with one huge exception: Guests ar e asked not to use their voices, not to read or write, to try to make as little noise as possible, a nd to keep doing that for at least two hours．Ryan says, "It changes all the rules that we have in social situations．"Where: Ryan has held more than a dozen SDPs in Germany, China and Australia, all but one in private homes, some as arts festival events．"Everyone keeps silent．When we communi cate, there's lots of eye contact, hand gestures and walking around acting things out．We've had silent bands and people making little tableaux （造型） out of each other．It's a really great experience．"How: While the idea was artistic at first, Ryan says anyone can do it, and she'll offer encour agement using www．honi_edonics．com．au．"Ideas are free．If people want to have a si lent dinner party, they should just go for it．The more the better, I say．"（1）Which of the following can be done at a SDP？________A Singing a song．B Reading a poem．C Playing the piano．D Acting things o ut．（2）Where does Ryan usually hold SDPs？________A In restaurants．B In private homes．C At theaters．D At her school．（3）How can we get Ryan's help？________A Go to meet her．B Talk over QQ．C Visit her website．D Call her up．27.Pulling off a bandage is so unpleasant, and for certain patients, it's also dangerous．Babies a nd the elderly have weak skin, and pulling away bandages and medical tape can lead to serio us injuries （伤害）．In fact, each year, medical tape causes about 1.5million injuries in the US alone．"This is a problem that all doctors and nurses know well, "says Jeffrey Karp, a professor at Harvard Medical School．"They are waiting for new inventions that will not cause injuries．"That's why Karp and his lab are working on an improvement to make fewer injuries when b andages are removed．Traditional medical tape is simply something sticky on a backing, but Karp's invention has a middle layer （层）．This extra layer takes the most force of removing the tape, which avoi ds injuries．When it's time to pull away the bandage, it moves right off．All that's left is a s mall print that can be easily covered or simply rolled off the skin．Karp's tape isn't his only invention in medical technology．He wrote an article about a surgical （外科） bandage that could hold fast wounded parts of an operation．Even better, this bandage disappears over time, meaning that doctors never have to go back to remove it．If Karp's pain-free bandages come into being as well as his earlier breakthrough, future patients will be mu ch luckier．（1）When do usual bandages cause injuries to patients？________A When they are kept on．B When they are pulled off．C When they are put on．D When they are stuck hard．（2）How many layers are there in Karp's invention？________A One．B Two．C Three．D Four．（3）What is the greatest advantage of Karp's surgical bandage？________A It doesn't need to be pulled off．B It can hold fast wounded parts．C It makes op eration much easier．D It can be used as people's skin．28. As an anger-management specialist, it never stops to surprise me what people get worked up about these days．Mother Teresa got angry about being poor．Widespread hunger made Gandhi's blood boil．Martin Luther King was fired up by social injustice （不公）．Yet many people seem to fly into strong anger at all kinds of small things: trousers that only have small sizes, leaders who have made unimportant mistakes, families reported in the newspapers with ten kids．Are these things really worth the heated anger they seem to cau se? Or could it be that we have nothing better to get angry about any more?Anger, like all emotions, has played a valuable role in human history．The strong anger hel ped our ancestors live on thousands of years ago．If they'd never been worried about others stealing their food or animals trying to kill them, they wouldn't have taken necessary action． In fact, research suggests that the development of our anger response （反应） has been part of our evolution （进化）．If we're shown pictures of angry faces, for example, we're more excited and then choose something to make us satisfied．So anger makes us get the things we really need．Anger also helped us work in close social groups．Losing our cool showed that we were di spleased with others, and that they needed to make changes to their behaviour．However, life-threatening （威胁生命的） injustice is less likely to happen in our modern societies．The angry response, which pl ays no real role in keeping us alive, is still kept in our brain．It leads us to get cross about the smaller, unnecessary things．Recent examples include a road-anger incident （事件） that left a man dead and a fight that started with two trolleys accidentally running into each other in a supermarket．It seems that anger is becoming a usual communication metho d．Part of the problem is that where we were once worried about keeping a roof over our heads and having a warm meal, now all our basic needs are met and our expectations have risen ．We expect everything is prefect．When it isn't, we stamp our feet．The good news is that if we have known our anger is often over the top, we might be better able to deal with it．We can check the anger in our brain by asking a simple question: is this matter threatening my life? If not, we could forget it-by finding something really worth getting angry with instead．（1）What role did anger play in man's history？________A It once helped humans live on．B It brought man what he needed．C It threaten ed human beings life．D It caused troubles to our society．（2）What is the problem now，according to the passage？________A There are still many things making us angry．B Human being's evolution has not dev eloped well．C Anger has become a usual communication method．D We are very worried about our basic needs now．（3）How can we deal with our anger response？________A By trying to give up our expectations．B By studying why we get angry so easily．C By thinking quietly over the matter we face．D By finding something really worth ge tting angry．（4）The underlined sentence in the second last paragraph may mean________．A we put stamps on our feet．B we kick somebody else heavily．C we make marks with our feet．D we knock the ground with our feet．五、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有一项为多余选项．29. Almost everyone in the world uses oil in some way．Cars，buses，planes and many trains and ships also need oil．（60）________．Indeed the whole world would stop if there was no oil．Today there is a growing need for oil in the world．（61）________．They look for oil in deserts，in the mountains and under the sea．（62）________，but the search for oil always goes on．What are the largest oil producers in the world？The US，Russia，and countries of the Middle East．But China is catching up fast．Before liberation we used t o buy nearly all our oil from the US．Many foreign people said China was"oil-poor"．But since liberation oil has been found in many parts of the country．（63）________．Our oil will not only meet the great need in our country，but also be sold to other countries．A．Oil was too expensiveB．Even our bicycles need oilC．Quite often they find nothingD．So people are looking for it everywhereE．Today everyone agrees that China is rich in oil．六、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题．30. Researchers say that men and women have different communication styles （风格）．That's why they sometimes cannot communicate well with each other．Here are some differences between them．Men's communication style is more direct．They usually take a direct way to a problem and suggest a solution （解决办法）．Men often make decisions more quickly than women．They also like to make decisions by themselves．Women's communication style is to discuss problems and ask other people f or their opinions．Women like to talk with other people before they make a decision．The topics of conversation are also different between men and women．Women like to discu ss personal topics and talk about their feelings．Talking about problems is important in frie ndship for women．They can express what they think while talking about them．It is impor tant in friendships for women．Men，on the other hand，are less comfortable discussing their feelings．They like to talk about the latest news，business，and personal success．Men build friendships by doing activities together．On the other han d，women build friendships by sharing feelings．These differences of communication styles cause problems in their relationships．What are the causes？First，women may think it is important to discuss how they feel about a problem．Men，however，like to come to a solution．Second，men often think that women are complaining （抱怨），because women are always talking about their feelings．Men offer a solution to a problem，and then want to talk about something else．The third is that women often think that men d on't want to discuss things．In fact，they just want to discuss different things．As men and women learn more about their different communication styles，they can better understand each other．64．Do men and women have different communication styles？________65．Do women make decisions by themselves or with others'help？________66．What is important in friendship for women？________67．How do men and women understand each other better？________68．What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage？________．七、完成句子31. 我有空时喜欢与朋友聊天．I________with my friends in my free time．32. 恐怕你打错电话了．________ you have the wrong number．33. 为什么不再试一次呢？我相信你能做到．________try once more？I believe you can make it．34. 风太大，我都无法在路上骑车了．The wind is________I can't ride my bike in the street．35. 我们在学校不仅能学知识，还能提高能力．We can________our ability at school．八、文段表达根据中文和英文提示，写一封意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于50词的回信．信的开头和结尾已给出，其词数不计入所完成的回信内．所给英文提示词语仅供试用．请不要写出你的校名和姓名．36. 假如你叫林涛，你将在暑假去美国纽约参加夏令营．你的美国笔友Tom通过邮件询问你夏令营的相关事宜．请根据他的问题写一封回复．提示词语：three weeks，learn English，make friends，exciting2014年北京市朝阳区中考英语二模试卷答案1.

It shows people the details that are undetectable when they observe with their own eyes. Before using the microscope, please read the instruction below.Caution:Microscopes are both delicate and expensive, and must be handled with care.1. Always carry the microscope with two hands—one supporting the base and the other on the arm.2. Keep the stage clean and always use a glass slide for specimens, the things tested or examined.3. To avoid pressing the glass slide when focusing, begin with the lens （镜头） close to the specimen and gradually back off to focus.4. Keep the microscope covered to prevent the build up of dust while it is being stored.How to Use the Microscope:1. Plug in the lamp.2. Place a specimen on a slide.3. Adjust the mirror so it reflects light from the room up into the objective lens.4. Place your slide with the specimen directly over the center of the glass circleon the stage. If it is a wet slide, be sure the bottom of the slide is dry.5. With the LOW POWER objective lens placed over the slide, use the coarse focus knob to lower the lens to the lowest point.6. Look through the eye piece with one eye while closing the other eye. Slowly raise the lens until the focus is relatively clear.7. Use the fine focus knob to make very small changes to the focus.8.

I was afraid of being away from my family for the first time. Here I would have to make friends with strange people and perhaps also compete with them for grades in courses I would take. Were they smarter than I was? Could I keep up with them? Would they accept me?I soon learned that my life was now up to me. I had to set a study program if I were to succeed in my courses. I had to regulate the time I spent in my study and socializing. I had to decide when to go to bed, what to eat, and with whom to be friendly. These questions I had to answer for myself.At first, life was rough. I made mistakes in how I used my time. I also made mistakes in how I chose my first friends in college. Shortly, however, I had my life under control. I managed to get myself to class on time, do my homework and hand them in, and pass my first exams with satisfying grades. In addition, Ideveloped a circle of friends with whom I felt comfortable and could share my fears. I set up my own routine, one that really met my needs.As a result, I began to look upon myself from a different perspective（视角）. I began to see myself as a person responsible for myself and responsible for my friends and family. It felt good to make decisions and see them turn out to be wise ones. I guess this is what people call "growing up".What did life have in store for me? At that stage in my life, I was really uncertain where I would go and what I would do with the years ahead of me. But I knew I would be able to handle what was ahead because I had successfully overcome the major problem in my life: I had made the change from a person dependent on his family to a person who was responsible for himself.(1) The author was anxious about his college life at first because.A. he hated to get on with strangersB. he lacked some specialist knowledgeC. he was at a loss in the new surroundingsD. he was afraid of making mistakes in front of others(2) We can learn from the author's early experience at college that.A. he got used to the new life without much troubleB. he lost the ability to handle things independentlyC. he came to realize he should be in charge of his own businessD. he was a failure in many aspects except in school performance(3) The author's college life finally brought him a sense that.A. he became a person caring for othersB. he was smarter than his fellow studentsC. he brought confidence back in making decisionsD. he could deal with his personal matters independently(4) Which is the best title for the passage?A. Memories of My Time in CollegeB. College: A Turning Point in My LifeC. My Colorful College LifeD. College Life Brings Me Pressure19、【来源】 2014年北京朝阳区高三二模（C篇）第19题2019~2020学年北京西城区北京师范大学附属中学高一上学期期中（C篇）第48~51题8分(每题2分)How Much Exercise Do I Need?When it comes to exercise, less is not more—but it's certainly better than none. Physical inactivity accounts for as many as 23 percent of all deaths from major chronic（慢性的）diseases, yet almost one of every three Americans is sedentary （spending a lot of time sitting down）. According to the Centers for Disease Control, 29.4 percent of those surveyed（调查）report they have no free-time physical activity at all. City people tend to be more active than country folks, with 27.4 percent saying they are sedentary, compared with 36.6 percent of those in rural areas.Light activity can improve physical and mental well-being. While light activity is good, moderate （not very large or very small） activity is even better, and health experts encourage everyone to have at least 30 minutes a day of moderate physical activity. But you don't have to head to a gym. As recent studies have confirmed, "lifestyle"activities, such as walking, house cleaning and gardening, are as effective as a structured exercise program in improving heart function, lowering blood pressure and keeping or losing weight.In one study, overweight, sedentary middle-aged men and women who learned behavioral skills to make them more physically active, such as walking around airports or train stations while waiting for a departure, reduced their body fat percentage and improved their blood pressure and heart function as much as individuals participating in instructured programs at a fitness center. In another study, fat women ranging in age from 21 to 60 who adopted a more active lifestyle lost as much weight as women in a low-impact aerobics（有氧健身）program—and regained fewer pounds in the following year.Recognizing the value of different levels and types of activity, the American College of Sports Medicine has changed its recommendations on quantity and quality of exercise to include flexibility as well as aerobic and muscle exercise and to acknowledge that multiple short periods of exercise during the day are nearly as beneficial as one long session.(1) By saying that almost one third of Americans are sedentary, the authormeans.A. they take proper exercise to be healthyB. they know nothing about light activityC. they are very fond of physical activityD. they take little free-time physical activity(2) We can learn from the passage that.A. light activity is especially good for the middle-aged peopleB. people like light activity because it won't make them feel tiredC. people only need to do light activity three times a week to keep fitD. light activity promotes people's well-being physically and mentally(3) What do health experts suggest about moderate activity?A. No less than half an hour's moderate activity daily can do us good.B. Moderate activity is no better than light activity to people.C. "Lifestyle" activities don't belong to moderate activity.D. People may go to the gym to take moderate activity.(4) According to the passage, which of the following belongs to a structured exercise programA. Doing gymnastics at a gym.B. Taking outdoor activities.C. Walking.D. Gardening.20、【来源】 2014年北京朝阳区高三二模（D篇）第20~23题Is Positive Thinking Powerful?The $11 billion self-help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like "I never do anything right"into positive ones like "I can succeed". But was the positive thinking advocate Norman Vincent Peale right? Is there power in positive thinking?Researchers in Canada just published a study in Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have the opposite effect: it can simply stress how unhappy they are. The study's authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaine Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by using older research showing that when people get feedback（反馈）which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your friend who is not very clever that he has the potential of an Einstein, TAL#NBSP you're just underlining his faults. In the 1990s, a team including psychologist Joel Cooper of Princeton conducted an experiment. Theparticipants were asked to write essays opposing financial support for the disabled, expressing little sympathy for them. When these participants were later praised for their sympathy, they felt even worse about what they had written.In this experiment, Wood, Lee and Perunovic measured 68 students'self-respect. The participants were then asked to write down their thoughts and feelings for four minutes. Every 15 seconds, one group of students heard a bell. When it rang, they were supposed to tell themselves, "I am lovable."Those with low self-respect didn't feel better after the forced self-approval. In fact, their feelings turned significantly worse than those of members of the control group, who weren't urged to think positive thoughts.The study provides support for newer forms for psychotherapy（心理治疗）that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. In the fighting, we not only often fail but can make things worse. Meditation（静思）techniques, on the contrary, can teach people to realize their shortcomings from a larger, more realistic perspective. Call it the power of negative thinking.(1) What is the finding of the Canadian researchers?A. There can be no simple solutions to psychological problems.B. Encouraging positive thinking may do harm to people.C. The power of positive thinking is limited.D. Unhappy people cannot think positively.(2) The underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably means.A. you are pointing out the mistakes he has madeB. you are not taking his mistakes seriously enoughC. you are stressing the fact that he is not intelligentD. you are not trying to make him feel better about his faults(3) What do we learn from the experiment of Wood, Lee and Perunovic?A. Self-approval can bring a positive change to one's feelings.B. People with low self-respect seldom write down their true feelings.C. It is important for people to continually improve their self-respect.D. Forcing people to think positive thoughts may lower their self-respect.(4) It can be learned from the last paragraph that.A. people can avoid making mistakes through meditationB. different people tend to have different ways of thinkingC. meditation may prove to be a good form of psychotherapyD. the effects of positive thinking differ from person to person四、七选五21、【来源】 2014年北京朝阳区高三二模第21题2020~2021学年10月陕西西安雁塔区西安高新第一中学高一上学期月考第33~37题10分Different CulturesThe cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other alot.1The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are fostered by rivers—the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River inIndia.2Then in Tang Dynasty of China, the Chinese culture gradually went overseas to Japan, mixed into the Japanese society and shaped the Japanese culture nowadays. Though a bit different from the Chinese one, it belongs to the same system.When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain—the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome.3Like the Chinese culture, the European one also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn't distinguish from the European one a lot.4Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race difference counts as well. But what's more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference（干扰）from the other.The differences are everywhere.5But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle（障碍）to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.A. Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.B. One important thing is to learn about other cultures.C. And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.D. At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.E. This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.F. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.G. They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.五、书面表达22、【来源】 2014年北京朝阳区高三二模第22题假设你是英语科代表，请根据以下提示，通知你班美国学生参加学校为交换生举办的一次讲座。

C大兴Jim was good at playing football. His father was sent tickets during the football season and cheered for him. Although Jim was on the name list of the team, his coach always 35 him as a “walk-on” because he had a skinny, small build. As a result, Jim had no chance to play in a game. But he 36 missed any practice.At the end of the football season, Jim 37 a letter about his father’s death. He asked the coach if he could stop his practice and go back home. The coach put his arms around his shoulder and said, “Take the38 of the week off, you may come back at weekend.”During the third quarter of the game, which was not going well for their team, Jim quietly slipped(溜) 39 the empty locker room and put on his football clothes. As he ran onto the sidelines, the coach and his players were 40 to see Jim come back so soon. “Coach, please let me play. I’ve just got to play today,” said the young man. Before long, the coach, the players and everyone in the stands(看台) could not believe their 41 . This little unknown, who had never 42 before, was doing everything right. He ran, passed, blocked like a star. In the closing seconds of the game, Jim intercepted(拦截) a pass and ran all the way for the winning touchdown. His teammates 43 up and lifted him over their heads.After the game, the coach noticed Jim sitting quietly in the corner alone. He came to him and said, “Kid, I can’t believe it. You were44 !”He looked at the coach with tears in his eyes and said, “Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know my dad was blind? Dad came to 45 my games, but today was the first time he could see me play, and I wanted to show him I could do it!”The coach was deeply moved and 46 to accept Jim as a real player on his team.35.

It was then that I learned how 35 it is to have a passion in life.That day 1 went home in Mom’s car. When Mom 36 at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed 37 rags (破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, because I had seen many like him before. Those people usually 38 unhappy and hopeless.But this man was 39 in some way. He was not sitting down with a sad expression. Instead, he had a 40 in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious (珍贵的) thing he had.“Mo m, why does that man 41 a radio though he’s homeless?” I asked.“He 42 it.” She replied.“But why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He 43 for something that he didn’t need.”“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important.”That man must care so much about 44 for that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that 45 is the key to life.Since then I am always thinking of what is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes—these things are not 46 parts of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light in a dark day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.35.

We’re flooding!” he shouted and shook me by the shoulders. That woke 35 up! I ran downstairs to the basement. It was like a swimming pool. My mother and I immediately started to pick up things and take them upstairs. I had no 36 on, so my feet were quite freezing.Things got worse every minute. Within the next hour, we had moved everything that we could to the first floor. The computer, big-screen television and heavy boxes 37 with our most valuable things were taken to safety. 38 , our piano, sofa, washing machine and water heater were all still down there—being 39 . There was nothing we could do.That was the hardest part.

I say yes, they undoubtedly should.Some people worry that teens with after-school jobs will have difficulty finding time for schoolwork. Actually, having a job helps teens make better use of their time. Many jobs take only a couple of hours on weeknights. According to an article, 86 percent of high school students have an after-school, weekend or summer job and students who work between 10 and 20 hours per week during the school year get higher grades than those who do not work at all. Instead of considering working after school a hindrance, it should be looked at as real-world education.Other people think that work adds too much stress（压力）, which may be somewhat true, but whether having a job or not, there is always stress. Better to learn how to deal with busy schedules（日程表）in a controlled environment like high school than to be out on your own and alone in the future, experiencing stress for the first time. I personally would be worried about the teenager who has to become independent without having any experience of working.The biggest reason teens should work is that it is a healthy way of making money. There are many things teens need to pay for and they cannot do it if they don’t have a job. Not all parents can pay for these activities. My dad told me, “Having a job is a good way to save up for things you ar e going to need or want to do. You get a lot more out of things if you pay for them yourself.” The sooner kids make money, the sooner they can learn how to use money wisely. If they are not allowed to work in high school, they may have a hard time in the future. Teens should, without a doubt, be allowed to work on school nights.56. The word “hindrance” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.A. something that encourages teens to studyB. something that helps teens improve studyC. something that prevents teens from studyingD. something that makes teens lose interest in study57. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Teens are too busy with study to work at high school.B. Teens experience stress for the first time at high school.C. Teens are worried about being independent in the future.D. Teens who work will deal with stress better in the future.58. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Working makes teens get lower grades.B. Working teaches teens to spend money more wisely.C. Working helps teens to get on better with their parents.D. Working stops teens from taking part in after-school activities.59. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. What money means to teens.B. Why teens should work after school.C. Whether parents should help teens find jobs.D. How teens get money for after-school activities.BCDCElephants are social animals. They live with their families, give hugs andcall each other by using their trunks (象鼻) as trumpets. They also might knowhow to help each other.In a recent elephant study by researchers from the United States andThailand, pairs of huge animals learned to cooperate (work together) to getsome ears of corn. Perhaps the finding is not too surprising: scientists supposethat elephants may be among the smartest animals on the planet.Joshua Plotnik, who worked on the study, told Science News that the animals didn‘t just learn a trick (诀窍). Instead, the ways the elephants behaved show that they understand how working together brings benefits to everyone.To work out whether elephants can cooperate, Plotnik and Frans de Waal, a comparative psychologist at Emory University in Atlanta, built a test. The test was based on one that‘s been used t o study the behavior of primates (灵长类动物) for more than 70 years.In the case (案例) of elephants, they were trying to get to some delicious corn sitting on a stage. The rope ran around the stage. Animals received corn treats only if both pulled the rope ends at the same time with their trunks. This cooperation brought the stage close enough for them to reach the corn with their trunks.The scientists studied six elephants at the Thai Elephant Conservation Center in Lampang, Thailand. The elephants worked out how to get the corn, but Plotnik and his co-workers wanted to know if the animals had simply learned a trick, or if they understood some basic ideas about cooperation. So the researchers did more experiments. In one, a single elephant was led to the rope and stood, alone, waiting. The animal waited patiently for more than 25 seconds for another elephant to come along — the animals seemed to know that sometimes, you have to wait for help to get the job done.Sometimes an elephant waited as long as 45 seconds. ―That‘s a long time for an animal waiting for food,‖ Plotnik told Science News.So far, only elephants and primates have successfully cooperated to master this kind of pull-together test. But that doesn‘t necessarily mean other animals don‘t cooperate. Plotnik says many behaviors in the animal kingdom may be explained by cooperation, but perhaps human scientists don‘t understand the rules. Experiments like the simple pull-together test give scientists a way to begin to learn.56. Which of the following is true about elephants?A. They use their trunks as trumpets for fun.B. They probably know how to help others.C. They play with other animal families.D. They like eating ears of corn best.57. Why does the writer talk about the case of elephants?A. To explain why elephants are among the smartest animals.B. To tell us that elephants are patient enough to get the food.C. To show us how the experiments on elephants were organized.D. To suggest that elephants have some basic ideas of cooperation.58. What can we know from the passage?A. Many animals‘ behaviors are related to cooperation.B. Some scientists have found animals‘ rules of cooperation.C. Moststudies can prove the reason why animals cooperate.D. More experiments are needed to help know about cooperation.59. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Think of ―You‖ in WorkingB. A Way to Begin to LearnC. There‘s No‘I’ in ElephantD. No Match for ElephantTanzania Tarangire is a national Park which lies in Tanzania.The park itself covers an area of around 2,850 square kilometers, making it the sixth largest park of its kind in the country. I recently visited Tarangire to see what it was like.One of the first sightings upon entering the park which I foundwas a huge group of elephants.Our guide told us thatTagrangire was probably the best place in Tanzania to find large group of elephants, and that their population in the park was around 2,500.We continued to watch the elephants as they stood under treesand_scratched_themselves_against_the_trees_to_hit_the_spot_of_an_itch.To the right of the elephant group, we noticed a big tree! Our guide informed us that this was a Baobab tree and that they could live for hundreds of pared with this tree, the elephant just looked like dwarfs (much smaller plants or animals)! We were informed that Tarangire was one of the best National Parks in Africa to see so many Baobab trees.As we continued our drive through the park, we finally reached a watering hole.Our guide warned us that there were lions all around us.It took us all a while to find them, but there they were! Most of them are resting in the shade under bushes, but there was one that was drinking from the watering hole directly in front of us.We then noticed just to our right, there were a couple of fresh zebra bodies —it seemed as if the lions which were resting had killed them! We were unlucky not to have seen the kill, as our guide had mentioned that the zebra bodies were fresh and the kill had happened within the last hour.Our final big sighting was one that none of us were expecting to see, even our guide! We stopped at a place where there were quite a many cars, with a sleeping leopard（美洲豹）there! We took photos and watched its surprising body before returning to our hotel as it was getting late.So, I hope you enjoyed my description of Tarangire, and add this amazing park to your very own Tanzania travel route.（401）57.

Page from Tanzania Tourist Diary.B. Animals and Plants in Tarangire Park.C. A Visit to Tarangire National Park.D. Protecting Animals and Environment.MengtougouBEING an astronaut sounds cool, doesn’t it? In space, they get to do some pretty amazing things, like floating(漂浮) in zero gravity(重力).However, there are also plent y of things that astronauts can’t do because of their weightless environment, and that’s very sad. What’s worse, they can’t even let their sadness show, because it’s impossible to cry in zero gravity.Of course, astronauts can still produce tears(眼泪). But crying is much more difficult in space, according to The Atlantic(大西洋月刊) in Janu ary. Without gravity, tears don’t flow(流动) down out of the eyes like they do here on Earth. This means that when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to go — they just stick(粘) to your eyes.In May 2011, astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his spacewalks. “Tears,” he said, “don’t fall off of your eyes. They just stay there.”Besides making your vision(视线) unclear, this can also cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears are supposed to bring comfort to the eye s. But that’s not the case(情况) in space. The space environment dries out astronauts’ eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes, it can cause pain rather than comfort. “My right eye is stinging(刺痛) like crazy,” Feustel told his teammate during the walk.Since gravity doesn’t work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get rid of(除去) the tears. Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe(擦) the tears away. Another choice is to just wait —“When the tears get big enough, they simply break fre e of the eyes and float around,”astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic.There are lots of small things — things like crying — that we are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted until they become a problem in a totally different environment, like space. There, astronauts can’t talk to eac h other directly. They also can’t eat or drink in normal ways. They can’t even burp(打嗝), because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing up(呕吐) everything in their stomach, according to the UK National Space Center.Therefore, perhaps it’s only space explorers who can honestly say, “G ravity, you’re the best.”56. From Paragraphs 2 and 3, we can know that __________.A. astronauts are unable to feel sad in spaceB. astronauts produce fewer tears in spaceC. tears produced in space flow down more slowlyD. tea rs produced in space don’t flow downward57. What effect do tears have on astronauts?A. They cause physical pain.B. They bring comfort to them.C. They make their vision clearer.D. They float around and cause trouble.58. The underlined phr ase “take them for granted” in paragraph 7 means __________.A. find them importantB. consider them uselessC. need them during an emergencyD. fail to notice their presence59. Paragraph 7 is mainly about __________.A. suggestions of how astronauts can stay comfortable in spaceB. other basic things that are difficult to do in spaceC. why burping is impossible in space“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,”said David Belle, the founder of parkour (跑酷).Close your eyes and imagine you are living in the next two centuries or more. You'll b e living in a world filled with smart robots, which will be helping you to take care of your children, or your elderly parents in your home. You'll live much longer thanks to the medicine made by genetic (基因的) science. And mankind may be going farther in space than ever before-you will be living on the moon or Mars.How should we view the changes that wait for us in the future? Should we be optimistic (乐观的)about the years ahead, or worried about what the future holds? Some scientists and experts are having a discussion about how technology, science and society will develop in the future."I'm looking forward to the day when more technology will come to my life," says John Searle, a professor at the University of California Berkeley Philosophy, "because I think further research in such areas as genetics, physics, chemistry and medicine will help us to overcome poverty, improve health, and make life longer."Hugh Herr, at MIT's Biomechatronics Group, considers very powerful weapons as concern over the future. Another is the growing role of technology in our lives."Machines’ taking over what humans do is not a good thing," Herr says.That is a similar concern shared by Daniela Cerqui, a social and cultural scientist. "I am afraid that the long-term future we are building will have no space left for human beings," says Cerqui. "The main values of our society are related to information that must progress as quickly as possible, and computers are much better than humans in these tasks."56. The second paragraph mainly tells us ________.A. how science will develop in the futureB. how people will live in a modern societyC. what life would be like in the futureD. what computers will bring to our society57. From Paragraph 4 we can infer that ___________.A. John Searl is optimistic about the futureB. we should wait to see the changes in the futureC. John Searl worries much about what the future holdsD. further science research will be helpful for making life longer58. The underlined word "That" in the last paragraph refers to________.A. The poverty problem in the futureB. Machines’ taking over what humans doC. The technology of weaponsD. The health problem of humans59. The best title for the passage can be “___________”.A. The Future--Full of Hope or ConcernB. Great Changes Will Take Place in the FutureC. The Relationship Between Technology and HumansD. The Role of Robots and Computers in the FutureCABAYou are given many chances in life to choose to be a victim(受害者) or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, then internalizing(内化)your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are persons who might like to control their lives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的)moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same problems, yet their experience of life is different worlds. Victims are easy to be in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others--and even themselves--to feel like victims, too. Creators choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire（鼓舞）not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to decide the direction of their lives.In fact, all of us play the victim or the creator at different points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and go into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the sadness, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative strength in his life.In every moment and every situation, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear goal to change the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.56. What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?A. People and things around you.B. Chances and problems.C. Creators and their choices.D. Victims and their sufferings.57. What can we learn from the passage?A. Creators have the ability to predict future life.B. Creators deal with ups and downs of life wisely.C. Victims can influence more people than creators.D. Victims and creators face quite different things in life.58. The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that ________.A. strong feelings of sufferings in life pull people into victims.B. people need family support to deal with sufferings in life.C. it takes creators quite a long time to clear out their pains.D. one’s experiences de cide his attitude toward his life.59. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this p assage?A. To describe victims and creators.B. To compare victims with creators.C. To suggest changing from victims to creators.D. To explain the relation between victims and creators.ABACBig Brothers Big Sisters is based on the simplicity and power（力量）of friendship．It is a program which provides friendship and fun by matching vulnerable young people (ages 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a supportive friend.V olunteer tutors come from all walks of life—married, single, with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are not replacement parents or social workers. They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.A Big Sister and Little Sister will generally spend between one and four hours together three or four times each month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park, cooking, doing sports or going to a football match. These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop self-respect, confidence and life direction.Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations can be found throughout the world. It is the largest and most well-known provider of tutor services internationally and has been operating for 25 years.Emily and Sarah have been matched since 2008. Emily is a 15-year-old girl who has experienced some difficulties being accepted by her schoolmates at school. “ I was pretty sure there was something wrong with me.”Emily’s mum came across Big Brothers Big Sisters and thought it would be of benefit to Emily by “providing different feedback about herself other than just depending on schoolmates to measure(测量) her self-worth.Sarah wanted to get involved(使参与) in a volunteer program. “I googled it and found out how to be a part of it. I thought it would be fun for me to get involved in making time to do something because sometimes it is all work and no play.”Big Brothers Big Sisters has been of great benefit and enjoyment to both Emily and Sarah. They love and look forward to their time together and the partnership has certainly helped Emily be more comfortable in being the wonderful and happy girl she is!56．According to the passage, “vulnerable young people” are probably those who are _________.A．popular at school B．rather weak physicallyC．easily hurt emotionally D．confident in themselves57．A volunteer is usually expected to work within a year for at least______．A．72 hours B．48 hours C．36 hours D．24 hours58．Why did Sarah want to get involved in the program?A．She felt a bit bored with her life. B．She used to be a volunteer.C．She needed a part-time job. D．She wanted to get a difficult job.59．What is the purpose of Big Brothers Big Sisters?A．To offer students public services．B．To help students improve their grades．C．To organize funny sport activities for young people．D．To provide partnership and fun for young people．CCADA new study suggests that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression as young adults.The researchers used a national long-term survey of healthy young teenagers of about 13-16 to find out the relationship between media use and depression. They based their findings on more than4000 young teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 1995.As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio.Here was the result. The young people spent five and a half hours a day using media and more than 2 hours of that was spent watching TV.Seven years later, in 2001, more than 7% of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was 21. Brian Primack at the University of Pittsburgh medical school was the lead author of the new study. He says every extra hour of television meant an 8% increase in the chances of developing signs of depression.The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games or radio. But the study did find that young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount of media use.Doctor Primack says the study did not find out if watching TV causes depression directly. But one possibility, he says, is that it may take time away from activities that could help prevent depression, like sports and social activities. It might also prevent a person from sleeping well, he says, and that could have an influence.The study was just published in the Archives of General Psychiatry.In December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Researchers from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active, to read, attend social services and to vote.56. Who was in charge of the new study of depression?A. MarylandB. PittsburghC. Brian PrimackD. General Psychiatry57. What does the word “depression”mean? It’s a kind of _____.A. voteB. studyC. sportsD. disease58. In 2001, more than ______ young people in the research had got the signs of depression.A. 7B. 21C. 280D. 400059. What does the writer want to tell us?A. The scientific research can prevent people from having depression.B. People are sure to benefit from watching TV less while taking activities more.C. Giving up all the uses of media and this will make you become a healthy person.D. The researchers will stop the study as it’s too difficult to understand the relationship between media useand depressionCDCBIf you bought some candy months ago but never ate it, how can you tellwhether it’s still eata ble? The easiest way is to check the “expiration date (保质期)” printed on the wrapper. If that date has already passed, you’re likelyto throw the candy away. But is that really necessary?According to a new report from the US Natural Resources DefenseCouncil (NRDC), tons of food is wasted each year, largely because peopledon’t fully understand what expiration dates, or “use-by dates”, actuallymean.Food dating was introduced in 1970s because customers wanted moreinformation about the things that they were eating. When they first showed up, use-by dates only showed freshness because producers wanted their products to be tasted in their best conditions.However, most customers mistakenly believed that use-by dates showed how safe the food was, and they still largely do. But the truth is that these dates aren’t related to the danger of food poisoning(中毒), according to Time News. Eggs, for example, can still be eaten three to five weeks after being bought, even though the use-by date is much earlier. When their use-by dates pass, strawberry-flavored cookies may lose their crunch （松脆的口感）, but they are not harmful.“It’s an unclear subject, the difference between food quality(质量) and food safety,” said Jena Roberts, vice president of National Food Lab, a US food testing company. “Even in the food industry has workmates who are not sure about it.”This is why scientists are calling for a standard explanation to be printed following the use-by dates. “We want this to be clearly communicated so customers are not misinterpreting the information and wasting a lot of food,” said Dana Gunders, a staff scientist with the NRDC.But this won’t be a mistake that is easy to correct since people have believed it for so long. Another problem is that the quality levels of different foods change differently-some are still eatable long after their use-by date while others are not.As a result, food industry officials are now thinking of changing the use-by date to a date showing when food is most likely to throw away.56. What does the writer mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 1?A. When we throw the food away. C. How we check the expiration date.C. How we know if the food is eatable.D. Whether we have to throw the food.57. The underlined word “misinterpreting” probably means_________.A. paying attention toB. taking no notice ofC. making guesses aboutD. having a wrong idea about58. What can we learn from the passage?A. Most customers have a clear idea of what expiration dates mean.B. Most customers now care more about freshness than food safety.C. Even after their expiration dates pass, some foods are still safe to eat.D. “Expiration dates” were first used to show when food was likely to go bad.59. What is probably the best title for this passage?A. Customers and food.B. Food quality and freshness.C. Use-by-dates and quality levels.D. Expiration dates and food safety.People often say that the Englishman’s home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal to him. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them individual(个体的); they can paint them, and change them in any way they like. Most houses have a garden, even if it is a very small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of the individual.People usually like to mark their space. Are you sitting now in your home or on a train? Have you marked the space around yourself as yours? If you are on the train, you may put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you. If you share a flat, you may have one corner or chair which is your own.Once I was travelling on a train to London. I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us .The man put his briefcase on my side of the table. I was angry. Maybe he thought that he owned the whole table. I had read a book about non-verbal communication, so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his briefcase! When I did this, he stiffened and his eyes nearly popped(瞪出)out of his head. I had invaded(侵犯)his space! A few minutes later, I took my papers off his case in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table. Of course, it is possible that he just wanted to be helpful to me!If you are visiting another country, you may feel that you don’t have any private space. Hotel rooms look much the same in every country in the world. All day long, you share public spaces with other people. You see the local people in their private spaces and you fe el lonely and “outside”. Local people can create their private spaces by talking about things you don’t know about .And you even feel that they like you to be outside of them so that they will enjoy bein g inside even more! This is one of the difficulties of being a traveler! But if you understand it, then it helps you .Haven’t you enjoyed being part of a group and “owning” a bit of space?56. The writer was angry as he was travelling on a train to London because______.A. he had no place to sitB. someon e had invaded his “space”C. too many people shared a section with himD. some other people talked about things he didn’t know about57. you feel lonely and “outside” in paragraph 4 means that_______.A. you are alone outside the houseB. you feel lonely because you travel on your ownC. you are alone and therefore you go outside to have some funD. you feel lonely and you don’t belong to that place or that group of people58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. British people dislike marking their space.B. You always feel at home in another country.C. Most British people prefer living in hous es to flats.D. You can’t mark your private space in a foreign country.59. The main purpose of the passage is to tell readers to _______.A. own private spaces by living in housesB. have one corner of their own in public placesC. create their private spaces by talking with local people。

2014北京中考二模各区县阅读理解C篇汇总DongchengAt the age of sixteen, I went on my first volunteer program in West Virginia to repair or build homes for poor families. When we arrived, we discovered that the family we were going to help was living in a trailer（拖车式活动房）that was in poor condition, no bigger than two parking spaces. A group of people had been working on it for two weeks, but every time they finished one problem, another appeared.We soon decided that the only way was to build a new house. It was something unusual because normally our goal was to repair old homes. The family was pleased with their new house that was 20 by 30 feet with three bedrooms, a bath and a kitchen.On Tu esday of that week, I asked the family’s three boys, Josh, Eric and Ryan, “What do you want for your new room?” Kids in the families we had helped usually wanted toys or posters, so we were surprised when Josh, the oldest boy said, “We just want beds.” T he boys had never slept in a bed. That night we had a meeting and decided that beds would be the perfect gift. On Thursday night, a few adults in our group drove to the nearest city and bought beds and new bedding.On Friday when we saw the truck coming, we told the family about the surprise. They were very excited.That afternoon, while we were setting up the beds, Eric ran into the house to watch us with wide eyes. As Maggie, a member of our group, put one of the pillows on the bed, Eric asked, “What is that?”“A pillow,” she replied.“What do you do with it?” Eric went on asking.“When you go to sleep, you put your head on it,” Maggie answered softly. Tears came to our eyes as she handed Eric the pillow.“Oh . . . that’s soft,” he said, holding it tightly.Now, when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems very urgent（急迫的）, my dad always asks, “Do you have a pillow?” We know exactly what he means.53. Why did the writer’s group build a new h ouse for the family?A. Because it was their normal work.B. Because the family asked them to do it.C. Because the trailer could no longer be repaired.D. Because they thought it was a perfect gift for the family.54. What can we learn from the story?A. The family needed two parking spaces.B. The boys of the family wanted toys and posters.C.

Mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she said again, “ is for Elizabeth.”I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed in action. But as a young girl,between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”.But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed and I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace —it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.But the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside — a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times. It was my letter.“In any way you choose, Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.”53. The passage shows that __________.A.

With the coming of new technologies like computers and smart phone, writing by hand has become something of old skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful--both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology(心理学) at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children learn the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her workmates carried out a study that looked at the ability of students to complete different writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, people wrote longer articles and more complete sentences.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a s tudent’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to h ow well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us get our vocabulary, word meaning and ideas. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换) “those words in the mind into written symbols(标志) on paper or keyboard and scree n,” the study said. Seeing thenotice spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the choices given by the co mputer.”53.

What can we learn from the passage?A. Computers can help people with their choice of words.B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.C. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms.D. Spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.BDCHave you ever had a science class that you look forward to? It doesn’t happen often. But when you have a teacher like Mrs. Rheineck, it’s more than a science class. It’s a science class where learning is easy and fun. There is no getting down to a huge textbook or listening to a teacher about something you don’t care about.My experience with Mrs. Rheineck didn’t start with science class, but with her as my tutor（导师，家庭教师）. I was always a weak reader and wasn’t getting any better. My parents told me I needed to be tutored.One day after school, I went into the library with my mom for my first tutoring time. I had no idea who was tutoring me. My mom practically h ad to pull me into the library. The first thing we did was to play a game to get to know each other and get rid of the awkwardness (笨拙，尴尬). We didn’t even play a reading game.We also went around the library and I got to pick out a book I wanted to read. She didn’t make me read a boring textbook about something I didn’t care about. I didn’t even pick a book. I picked out a magazine about remote control cars. I thought to myself, how bad could it be? I got to read about remote control cars. She told me even though I was reading a magazine, I was still reading. After the first magazine, she picked out a book she liked. I would read a chapter(章) and then she would read a chapter to me, this way I didn’t have to read for long periods of time.As I got better and faster at reading, I was able to read two chapters in the same amount of time, which used to take me to read one chapter.Reading is one of the most important things in high school and college to be successful. If it wasn’t for her,I would not be the reader I am today and I thank her for that.53. Why was the writer tutored by Mrs. Rheineck?A. Because the writer was too shy to talk with others.B.

At the library, the writer __________.A. chose any book he was interested inB. played a reading game with Mrs. RheineckC. was asked to read one chapter after anotherD. had to read textbooks rather than magazinesDBAShunyiAre you carrying too much on your back at school? I’m sure lots of children of your age will say “yes”. Not only the students in China have this problem, but children in the United States also have heavy school bags. Doctors are starting to worry that younger and younger students are having back and neck problems as a result of school bags being too heavy for them.“It’s hard for me to go upstairs with my bag because it’s so heavy,’ said Rick Hammond, an 11-year-old student in the US.Rick is among students who have common school bags with two straps to carry them, but many other students choose rolling bags.But even with rolling bags, getting up stairs and buses is still a problem for children. Many of them have hurt their backs and necks because of the heavy school bags.But how much is too much? Doctors say students should carry no more than 10% to 15% of their own body weight.Scott Butch, a back doctor, said children under Grade 4 should stay with 10%, but it is also important that older children don’t stay with over 15%, because their bodies are still growing. “Children are losing their balance and falling down with their school bags,:”he said.Parents and teachers are starting to tell children to only take home library books they will be reading that night. Some teachers are using pieces of paper or thin work books for students to take home.One of the best answers is, as some children said, to have no homework at all!53. From the passage we can know that__________.A. only children in China carry too heavy school bagsB. only children in the US carry too heavy school bagsC. children in other countries don’t carry too heavy bagsD. both children in China and the US carry too heavy school bags54. If a child carries a heavy school bag, his___________ will be hurt.A. handsB. feetC. back and neckD. head and arms55.
