A（2019中考选练）Are you a good receiver? It might sound like a funny question but it is an important one that each of us should ask ourselves.Strangely, most of us are better givers than receivers. We give to our family, our friends and even charities, and opposite to what we might think, most of us are actually very good at giving. But receiving is another matter. We often feel a little uneasy when receiving, although it is not very noticeable. Even praise gets deflected （转向）when it comes our way. When someone praises us for helping him move or clean up the house, we will possibly say, “Ah, it was nothing.” When someone praises the coat we are wearing, we may mention how we bought it at a discount instead of simply enjoyi ng the praise. Actually, the praise is a gift to us, and when we don’t receive it properly, we are dishonoring the giver.Giving is easy, as there is much pleasure in giving, but receiving is an art that takes practice. To be a good receiver requires a sense of close relationship with the giver. It is always a pleasure for a giver to see the gift received in a pleasant way. And this is also the best way for a receiver to honor the giver and give him something back.Many relationships are not so good not because people are not giving to each other, but because they are not receiving from each other well. We should receive the love, respect the praise, and give thanks every time giving happens. We should practice receiving all the pleasures that happen to us every day, instead of taking them for granted. Think of how many simple everyday gifts we are being given all the time: thebeauty of nature, art and inspiring（激励人的）conversations. But are we truly receiving them when they happen to us, or are we busy with other matters, not noticing? We should master the art of receiving: accept the gifts life offers us and show our appreciation for them.We are taught that it is better to give than to receive. But this suggests that there is something wrong with receiving. There is nothing wrong with receiving. It is better to give and receive. Let life shower us with gifts, pleasures, joys, surprises, both large and small, and let us take notice of all these things and accept them happily and thankfully. The more we can receive, the more we can give back, but giving more does not necessarily mean receiving more. We must remember it is harder to receive than to give, and try to practice receiving. This practice will benefit us greatly, making us become good receivers as well as good givers.1. According to Paragraph 2, what do we possibly do when we are praised?A. Honor the giver publicly.B. Show our pleasure clearly.C. Receive the praise uncomfortably.D. Express our disagreement properly.2. The expression “taking them for granted” probably means “_______”.A. looking for them with expectationB. depending on them with satisfactionC. getting away from them without regretD. benefiting from them without appreciation3. What can we learn from the passage?A. People usually can receive more by giving more.B. People usually try to receive as much as possible.C. People should give a gift back when receiving one.D. People can improve relationships by receiving well.4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Be a Good Receiver and GiverB. Better to Give Than to ReceiveC. Better to Give, Better to ReceiveD. Be a Receiver Rather Than a Giver参考答案1. C 2. D 3. D 4.

They are both places with very cold temperatures and few people live there. However, the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine.The North Pole has no land, only thick ice. Temperatures seldom go above 32°F, at which water turns into ice. Most of the time, it stays below zero. In winter temperatures are usually as low as -30°F.Although conditions were very poor, people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole. About 100 years ago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties. They reached the North Pole on March 8th, 1909. It was really a hard trip for them.There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic(北极圈) on foot. People who stayed there may face many problems: very cold temperatures, sudden storms, and even hunger. Most of the area is uninhabited. Few people can live in such a difficult place.People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year, the ice would be thick and hard. However, this is not true in the Arctic. The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface. Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water(水道) called “leads”. Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes.1．This passage is probably from ___________.A． a book review B． a science bookC． a school report D． a computer magazine2．According to the passage, what happened about 100 years ago ?A． Two men succeeded in getting to the North Pole.B． Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32°F.C． The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse.D． The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures.3．What does the underlined word “uninhabited” probably mean in Chinese?A．气候恶劣的 B．充满危险的 C．困难重重的 D．无人居住的4．The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is _____________. A． that the temperature suddenly drops B． that the water under the ice is frozenC． that the ocean water under the ice moves D． that the surface is covered with lots of ice5．What does this passage mainly talk about?A． The thick ice in the North Pole.B． A difficult trip to the North Pole.C． The real situation in the North Pole.D． The differences between the North Pole and the South Pole.【解析】试题分析：本文是一篇科普文，介绍了北极点的有关情况。

A（2019中考教育类选练）The eyes are extremely precious(宝贝的) to us. That is why we say “Mind your eye!” when telling someone to be careful.Not only human beings and animals have eyes; many things also have “eyes” —the eyes of a ship, the eye of a needle, the eye of a typhoon（台风）, and so on. Some electric apparatuses（设备） also have an eye — a magic eye（电眼）. It is an electronic device that controls something like the automatic opening of a door.Our eyes have a completely dif ferent use from that of animals’ and the eyes of things. When you “have an eye to doing something”, it means you “plan to do it”. If you “see eye to eye with your friends in this respect”, it means you agree on that point. If you “have an eye for pictures”, you can tell whether they are good or not.The most important use of our eyes is “opening our eyes”. “To see with half an eye the truth of a situation” is to see if somebody is lying.1. What do you mean by saying “Mind your eye!”?A. Do you mind using your eyes?B. Take care of your eyes.C. Be careful.D. Can you see everything clearly?2. When we use “a magic eye”, in fact we use ____________.A. he automatic opening of a doorB. the eye of electric apparatusesC. the way to make something workD. the thing which controls something automatically3. What’s the Chinese for “have an eye for…”?A. 对……有鉴赏力B. 有一只看……的眼睛C. 能观察……D. 喜欢看……4.

If there werethings written or printed on the first paper，they disappear．Recycling keeps our planet healthy.It reduces waste and saves money.It a 10saves energy.You can do your part.So just remember the golden rule：always recycleyour products!1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. 7. 8. 9. 10.IAs you've just found out, opening a book doesn't require much effort. However,even that would be i 1 if you spent the night on the streets.After lying for hours on cold ground, with only a thin sleeping bag to protectyou from rain or ice, your fingers would probably be so numb(麻木的)that you couldhardly m 2 them. You'd most likely spend the day trying to find something to eatand somewhere to shelter from the freezing cold.You might be surprised to hear that the number of people sleeping rough(露宿)inLondon has doubled in the last five years and has i 3 by 30% across the rest ofthe country during the last two years.Once we bring a homeless person out of the freezing cold, we need your help togive him a w 4 welcome at St Mungo's very much.Will you please give a Christmas gift of £25, which could p 5 a homeless personwith a St Mungo’s welcome pack? It could have a towel, shampoo, soap(肥皂), so a homeless person can have a hot s 6 and a proper clean up. The difference you couldmake won't end there. You see, welcoming someone into warmth and safety is just theb 7 . You really could enable someone to change their life for good.For Harvey, it was losing his job that led to him becoming homeless. Since Harveywas welcomed into St Mungo’s, he has received t 8 for his health and so muchmore. After he took courses in useful life skills, he recently moved into his ownflat.With your gift, you could help us offer a warm welcome to someone I 9 Harveywho's come in from the freezing streets.

The answer is that you need to do so when you ask for a job.Some people believe that your blood group hides(隐藏) no secrets. It shows the “real you”. And the owners of certain blood groups might be particularly good or bad at certain tasks(任务). This is the very reasons of why you could be asked to offer your blood group before being given a job.The new idea was carried out first in Japan and now it has been brought over to other parts of the world. One important business company in Japan is quite special about this need:“For our office members, we must have 30 percent of group A and 15 percent of AB, 25 percent of O and 30 percent of B”.Do you happen to know your own blood group? It seems that if you belong to blood group O, you can get things done and sell the goods well. Blood group A are the thinkers, while blood group B are highly creative. And if you have problems, ask the ABs to solve them. So if you visited the Japanese company, you would find the O types out selling goods and A types keeping order in the office.1. According to the passage, __________.A. four types of the blood were discovered by JapanB. people of good blood might do their work very wellC. know your own blood group and you could get a good jobD. more and more countries have accepted the new idea about blood groups2. Creative persons, good salesmen, thinkers and problem solvers are the four kinds of persons needed by the Japanese company. The proportion mentioned in the passage is __________ respectively. A. 30%, 15%, 25% and 30% B. 30%, 30%, 25% and 15%C. 30%, 25%, 30% and 15%D. 25%, 15%, 30% and 30%3. People belonging to blood group B might be good at __________.A. sports and gamesB. smoothing away difficultiesC. doing office workD. painting and writing4. This passage seems to lead you to believe ____________.A. your blood group could affect your workB. blood types can never change your lifeC. the idea about blood groups has little scientific basisD. personality tests are exactly correct5. This passage is mainly about ___________.A. the origin of blood groupB. the effect of the blood group on personalityC. the secrets of blood groupsD. the new skill of hiring people参考答案1－5 DCDAB第三篇When you want to call a store or an office that you don’t call often, you may look the number up in a telephone book. You dial (拨) the number, and then you forget it! Your short-term (短期) memorylast about 30 seconds. However, you don’t need to look in the telephone book for your best friend’s number because you already know it. This information is in your long-term memory. Your long-term memory has everything that you remember through the years.Why do you forget things sometimes? There are several reasons. An important reason for forgetting something is that you didn’t learn it well in the beginning. For example, you meet some new peopl e, and soon you forget their names. You hear the names but you don’t learn them, so you forget them. You can help yourself remember better. Move information from your short-term memory to your long-term memory. You can do this if you practise the new information for more times.1. Why do you forget the telephone number that you don’t call often?A. Because the telephone number is too long.B. Because the telephone number is very strange.C. Because you look it up in the telephone book.D. Because you use your short-term memory to remember it.2. Which is easier to forget?A. Your best friend’s name.B. Something that you understand.C. The new information that you have practised a lot.D. Something that you didn’t learn well in the beginning.3.

The Dragon Head Raising Day(Longtaitou) is one of them. This special day is on the second day of the second month in the Chinese lunar calendar. It stands for the start of spring and farming. The dragon is important for Chinese people. We Chinese people call ourselves the “descendants (传人) of the dragon”. Therefore, people celebrate the Dragon Head Raising Day with many customs.On the day in ancient times, people put ashes in the kitchen. This was to “lead the dragon into the house”. People believed that with the help of the dragon, they could have a good harvest(收成) in autumn.Also, people eat special foods that day. The foods are usually named after dragons. For example, people eat “dragon whisker(细须)” noodles and dumplings called “dragonteeth”.Today, many customs have faded away(消退). But one that has remained is the cutting of hair. It is said that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to the uncles of the family—mainly mother's brothers. So many people have their hair cut on the Dragon Head Raising Day.根据上述内容，判断下列句子正误，正确的为“T”，错误的为“F”。

For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite. Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving .Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls.Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to US through satellites. Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location.We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another. They are usually 35，880 kilometers above the equator. Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place. This is because it is moving around the world at 11，000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates. A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae facing the earth. Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit，So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position .This usually happens about every five or six days.Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth. A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years. Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired. Often，very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbitthe Earth for a very long time. This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other.1.Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage?A. Sending information for weather forecast.B. Taking photographs of the Earth.C. Sending TV pictures.D. Providing food for airplane pilots.2.What’s the speed the earth rotates at?A.35,880 kilometers per hour.B.335,880 kilometers per hour.C.11,000 kilometers per hour.D.110,000 kilometers per hour3.Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates?A. In order to take photographs.B. In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit.C. In order to move away from its orbit.D. In order to send television pictures.4.What does the underlined word “This” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?A. A satellite.B.A little rocket.C. A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky.D. The satellite puts the rockets in the right position.5.Which is true of satellites?A.

They often crash into each other.参考答案BDDBA二、语法选择。
