A（2019中考选练）Everyone talks about the advantage of taking time out for “simple pleasures”. The idea is that we will be happier if we often do inexpensive, easy-to-do activities.However, the problem for many of us is that we don’t know what makes us happy.When I was in college, my mother gave me some wise advice. She said, “Before you get married and live with another person, you need to spend some time living by yourself. You ne ed to get to know yourself.”So I did exactly that. For almost two years, I lived by myself. I found that I loved to spend hours looking around in bookstores. I also loved to spend an afternoon just walking around the city. And every so often, I needed the moments of pure silence.But, of course, we all don’t enjoy the same things.A simple pleasure for me would be to spend an hour reading a book in my backyard. However, that same activity would give my husband no pleasure. We are all so different.Sometimes, we already know what makes us happy. However, as life gets busier and we get older, we put aside our simple pleasures.For example, I had to give up playing the flute（长笛）when I started working and had family responsibilities. Playing my flute seemed selfish（自私的）when no one else in my family could join, but three years ago I returned to playing the flute. I regret having ever stopped.Simple pleasures are neither simple nor universal（普遍的）.Our simple pleasures are a reflection（反映）of who we are. They are different activities that give each of us joy.Certainly there are some common topics—such as being out in nature, doing something creative, or enjoying music and literature—but beyond that, each of us has to find out what it is that feeds our souls（灵魂）.T hat isn’t always easy in a world in which we have to consider other people’s needs and opinions as well asour own, but enjoying simple pleasures is something that each of us deserves（应得）.Think of it as your right, and say to yourself, “Today, I’m going to discover what my simple pleasures are.”1.What is the writer’s opinion about simple pleasures?A.They change as we grow older.B.They can reflect our characters.C.It’s expensive to achieve them.D.People with no responsibilities can enjoy them.2.What does the writer want to tell by sharing her experience of living alone?A.Wise people often take their mothers’ advice.B.A couple don’t necessarily share the same interests.C.It’s necessary to live alone before getting married.D.It’s worth spending time alone enjoying simple pleasures.3.What can we learn from the writer’s experience of playing the flute?A.We should develop an interest that others can take part in.B.Making our family happy is better than making ourselves happy.C.Keeping our interests alive is a good method to make ourselves happy.D.Family responsibilities are more important than our own interests.4.In the last two paragraphs, the writerA.suggests readers pay no attention to others’ opinionsB.encourages readers to get simple pleasures activelyC.teaches readers to balance others’ needs with their own needsD.reminds readers to realize simple pleasures are the most important part of life 【参考答案】1—4、BDCBB隐形杀手——抑郁症Although we all want happiness and joy every day, sometimes we still feel blue. Most people can control this, but sometimes it can get worse and people fall into depression (抑郁).This year, the WHO chose“depression” as the theme of World Health Day. This aims to raise people's awareness (意识) of it. According to its recent report, about 322 million people suffered depression in 2015. This is more than 4 percent of the world's population.Depression is described as a mental disorder(精神疾病). It has several symptoms(症状) like sadness and loss of interest. In extreme cases, depression may lead to suicide (自杀)．There are three groups of people that are more likely to develop depression, according to WHO. One is old people, while another is women who are pregnant (怀孕的) or have just given birth. And young people are also one of the three groups.In China, depression among young people is on the rise, Zhu Zhuohong, a famous psychology professor told Xinhua. Competitions, especially in education, can cause a lot of pressure.Luckily, efforts are being made to solve this problem. Now several social organizations in China are trying hard to help those with depression. WHO also held the “Depression: Let's talk” campaign this month, aiming to make sure that people with depression seek and get help.1. People with depression even want to ________．A. seek and get helpB. have competitionsC. have pressureD. commit suicide2. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. Depression is a mental disorder.B. Pregnant women are more likely to develop depression.C. People with depression cannot go to work.D. Depression among young people is on the rise.3.

A（2019中考教育类选练）Do you consider failure as an ending? Do you often feel after a failure that you are good for nothing? Then be careful, you are one of them who have bad relationship with failure. And this is the only reason why people often keep themselves away from their success. The power of failure is that it helps us to learn fro our mistakes and missteps and we must consider a failure as an opportunity to grow rather than giving up.Let's discover the reasons why successful people believe that opportunity lies in every failure.Disappointment or failure shows that you are tryingThe best way to gauge（权衡）your progress at something is to see how many times you failed. In case you haven't failed yet, chances are that you haven't tried hard yet.Look at all successful men and women throughout our history, they all had one thing in common. That's to say they failed not once but several times before they achieved success. Let's take an example of Thomas Edison: he failed a lot of times to find right filament（灯丝）for his light bulb. Henry Ford had a stronger relationship with failure, which inspired him to quote this unforgettable saying “failure is the opportunity to begin again, more intelligently.”Achievement lies in looking at failure as an opportunityJust like every successful person had one thing in common, similarly all unsuccessful persons throughout our history had one thing in common --- their inability to use failure as an opportunity and a tool. If you feel your one failure is your ultimate （终极的）failure, and that feeling of sinking down is known as anultimate failure, you are pushing yourself away from your expected success. Achievement is all about finding out what mistakes you made, what is the main cause of that failure, and how you are going to make up for it.Success requires willpower, passion, hard work, intelligence, determination, but all of the above, success requires failure. Use your failure as an opportunity to learn, to become wiser and to reconsider your relationship with failure, the true key to success.1. According to the writer, why do people keep themselves away from their success?A. Because they don't set long-term goals.B. Because they haven't got enough time.C. Because they can't deal with failure properly.D. Because they are disappointed in themselves.2. Why does the writer take the example of Thomas Edison?A. To explain the reasons for failure.B. To prove the importance of failure.C. To take pride in Thomas Edison.D. To introduce the process of making a light bulb.3. What can you learn from the passage?A. Failure can build up your confidence.B. Successful people seldom failed.C. Failure is more important than success.D. Successful people use failure as a tool.参照答案1. C 2. B 3. DB歌剧版《红楼梦》You must have read or heard of the sad love story between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu. But can you imagine the two singing opera in English instead of speakingpoetic Chinese?Jia and Lin are two characters from the classic Chinese novel A Dream of Red Mansions(《红楼梦》), written by Cao Xueqin(1715－1763). Now the book has been made into an English language opera. The opera was first performed last September in San Francisco, US. This month it came to Beijing, Changsha and Wuhan.Many of the opera's creators have backgrounds(背景)in both Chinese and American cultures, including the director and playwrights. Their understanding of both cultures helped them to change a Chinese classic into a foreign-language opera.The book, which covers the rise and fall of the Jia family, has 120 chapters and hundreds of characters. But opera writer David Henry Hwang cut down the number of characters to just seven. Hwang, a Chinese-American, focused on the love story between Jia and Lin and tried to write a heartbroken tragedy(惨剧) that everyone would understand.The art director Timmy Yip, from Hong Kong, tried to help foreign people understand the characters using costumes(服饰) and stage settings(布景). He compared Lin to water and gave her a light green costume. When Lin shows up on stage, there is usually water around her on the stage.The creators consider it to be a meaningful job to introduce a Chinese classic to Western audiences. Hwang told China Daily he was happy to “have made a contribution to the land where my paren ts were born”．1. Who wrote the opera for the Chinese classic novel A Dream of Red Mansions?A. Lin Daiyu.B.

A（2019中考平时生活类训练）There are always times when your children get bored with studying. There are also moments when you are looking for something educational (教育的) yet funny and easy to do. With a few things and a little preparation, you can easily entertain (娱乐) and educate your children.Do you read any magazines with pictures? Keep them. They can make a funny family game.Sit with your children and look at the pictures. You can cut out interesting pictures and ask your children to lay (搁置) them out. Use as many pictures as possible. For example, if it is a picture of a book, cut it out; even if it is an action, such as washing clothes, cut it out. Try to get as many different pictures as possible.In this game, you are going to use the pictures to let your children make up their own stories. Then take any kind of table, even the kitchen table, and let your child lay out the pictures any way they wish. They don’t need to use all of them, just as many as they want.After they have laid out the pictures, have them tell a story. If some pictures don’t fit in with their stories, don’t use them. If they find a different picture to add another part to their story, let them do it. The more pictures you have, the more creativity (创建力) will come from your children.1. What’s the passage mainly about?A. How to enjoy pictures with children at home.B. How to entertain your children by drawing pictures.C.

But for some people, music is not fun at all. They have the illness that scientists call “amusia(失歌症)”. People with amusia are born without the ability to enjoy music. They often cannot tell the differences between two songs. As a result, songs sound like noise to them.Life can be hard for people with amusia. In fact, most people cannot understand what it feels like—just going to a restaurant or a shopping centre can beuncomfortable or even painful. That is why many people with amusia have to stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in social loneliness.“I used to hate parties，” says Elizabeth, a 70­year­old w oman who only recently discovered that she has amusia. By studying people like Elizabeth, scientists are finally learning how to identify(鉴别) this unusual condition. Scientists say that the brains of people with amusia are different from those that can enjoy music. The difference is complex(复杂的)，and it is not connected with poor hearing. People with amusia can understand other non-musical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding common speeches.Many people with amusia are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed(诊疗). For years, Elizabeth has felt embarrassed about her music problem. Now she knows that she is not alone. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No, thanks. I have amusia，'” says Elizabeth.1. People with amusia are those________．A. who like musicB. who have poor hearingC. who don't like musicD. who are born unable to enjoy music2.

Passage 1（2019中考教育类选练）Even kids know that we should wait for the traffic light to turn green before crossing a road, but not everybody follows this basic rule.“Chinese style road crossing” has become a hot expression recently. Chinese people “cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as（只要）they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo.A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road at a crossing in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.Many people say that they jaywalk（乱闯马路）because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings from 2008 to 2010. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore(忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can stand,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that half of the respondents（调查对象）believe that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard（忽视）rules.“I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,” wrote “Qixiaoe” on Weibo.Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum(最大量) can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too.

Do you ever try to make your dream real?Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop youfrom realizing your dream.In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.1. Which of the following isn’t mentioned in this passage?A.

A（2019中考选练）Everyone talks about the advantage of taking time out for “simple pleasures”. The idea is that we will be happier if we often do inexpensive, easy-to-do activities.However, the problem for many of us is t hat we don’t know what makes us happy.When I was in college, my mother gave me some wise advice. She said, “Before you get married and live with another person, you need to spend some time living by yourself. You need to get to know yourself.”So I did exactly that. For almost two years, I lived by myself. I found that I loved to spend hours looking around in bookstores. I also loved to spend an afternoon just walking around the city. And every so often, I needed the moments of pure silence.But, of course, we all don’t enjoy the same things.A simple pleasure for me would be to spend an hour reading a book in my backyard. However, that same activity would give my husband no pleasure. We are all so different.Sometimes, we already know what makes us happy. However, as life gets busier and we get older, we put aside our simple pleasures.For example, I had to give up playing the flute（长笛）when I started working and had family responsibilities. Playing my flute seemed selfish（自私的）when no one else in my family could join, but three years ago I returned to playing the flute. I regret having ever stopped.Simple pleasures are neither simple nor universal（广泛的）.Our simple pleasures are a reflection（反应）of who we are. They are different activities that give each of us joy.Certainly there are some common topics—such as being out in nature, doing something creative, or enjoying music and literature—but beyond that, each of us has to find out what it is that feeds our souls（灵魂）.That isn’t always easy in a world in whic h we have to consider other people’s needs and opinions as well asour own, but enjoying simple pleasures is something that each of us deserves（应得）.Think of it as your right, and say to yourself, “Today, I’m going to discover what my simple pleasures are.”1.What is the writer’s opinion about simple pleasures?A.They change as we grow older.B.They can reflect our characters.C.It’s expensive to achieve them.D.People with no responsibilities can enjoy them.2.What does the writer want to tell by sharing her experience of living alone?A.Wise people often take their mothers’ advice.B.A couple don’t necessarily share the same interests.C.It’s necessary to live alone before getting married.D.It’s worth spending time alone enjoying simple pleasures.3.What can we learn from the writer’s experience of playing the flute?A.We should develop an interest that others can take part in.B.Making our family happy is better than making ourselves happy.C.Keeping our interests alive is a good method to make ourselves happy.D.Family responsibilities are more important than our own interests.4.In the last two paragraphs, the writerA.suggests readers pay no attention to others’ opinionsB.encourages readers to get simple pleasures activelyC.teaches readers to bal ance others’ needs with their own needsD.reminds readers to realize simple pleasures are the most important part of life 【参照答案】1—4、BDCBB隐形杀手——抑郁症Although we all want happiness and joy every day, sometimes we still feel blue. Most people can control this, but sometimes it can get worse and people fall into depression (抑郁).This year, the WHO chose“depression” as the theme of World Health Day. This aims to raise people's awareness (意识) of it. According to its recent report, about 322 million people suffered depression in 2015. This is more than 4 percent of the world's population.Depression is described as a mental disorder(精神疾病). It has several symptoms(症状) like sadness and loss of interest. In extreme cases, depression may lead to suicide (自杀)．There are three groups of people that are more likely to develop depression, according to WHO. One is old people, while another is women who are pregnant (怀胎的) or have just given birth. And young people are also one of the three groups.In China, depression among young people is on the rise, Zhu Zhuohong, a famous psychology professor told Xinhua. Competitions, especially in education, can cause a lot of pressure.Luckily, efforts are being made to solve this problem. Now several social organizations in China are trying hard to help those with depression. WHO also held the “Depression: Let's talk” campaign this month, aiming to make sure that people with depression seek and get help.1. People with depression even want to ________．A. seek and get helpB. have competitionsC. have pressureD. commit suicide2. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. Depression is a mental disorder.B. Pregnant women are more likely to develop depression.C. People with depression cannot go to work.D. Depression among young people is on the rise.3.
