There are other expenses as well. Many students leave their homes to go to schools in other cities. They may live in dormitories or apartments ( flats), and they must pay for it. Finally, students must buy textbooks for their courses. Some families start saving money for their children’s education when the children are small. Many students work to save money for tuition.

girl.()A.the;anB.a;theC.the;aD.an;the【考点】定冠词(the);不定冠词(a,an).【分析】﹣﹣﹣看!树底下的那个⼥孩是谁?﹣﹣﹣哦,她是我妹妹.他是⼀位善良的姑娘.【解答】答案:A 联系汉语意思,根据under the tree可知,问句特指树底下的⼥孩是谁,应使⽤定冠词the.再根据Sheis_____honest girl可推测,此处泛指Kate是⼀位善良的⼥孩,表⽰"⼀个",应⽤a/an.⼜知a/an 的⽤法:a⽤于辅⾳⾳素开头的词前,an⽤于元⾳⾳素开头的词前,且honest是以元⾳⾳素/?/开头的,所以此处应⽤an.故选A.【点评】此题考查冠词的⽤法.做题时,先结合汉语意思,判断所缺部分是特指还是泛指,然后筛选出符合题意和⽤法的答案.22..﹣﹣﹣Why did Lucy look

him他,⼈称代词宾格,作宾语;himself他⾃⼰,反⾝代词,作句⼦宾语、表语以及同位语;his他的,物主代词;he他,⼈称代词主格;根据句⼦中"sorry"可知我不能和你去踢⾜球,原因是我⼩弟弟不能照顾他⾃⼰.look after oneself照顾某⼈⾃⼰,根据主语my 5﹣year﹣old brother可知,这⾥要⽤he的反⾝代词himself,故选:C.【点评】考查反⾝代词,理解句⼦的意思及指代对象,明确反⾝代词在句⼦的作⽤,结合语境,选择正确的答案.24..﹣﹣﹣Where is Marry flying?﹣﹣﹣She is flying to France soon.She will arrive___Paris____the morning of July

at/in到达,at后跟⼩地点,in后跟⼤地点,巴黎是⼤地点,应⽤in,排除选项A、B;在具体某⼀天或某⼀天的上午、下午、晚上要⽤介词on,故选D.【点评】本题考查⽅位介词和时间介词,先弄清各⾃的⽤法,再根据情景选择正确答案.25..﹣﹣﹣Roy never likes junk food.﹣﹣﹣Neither do I.That's probably why I'm becoming____now.()A.healthy and weakB.healthier and healthierC.weaker and weakerD.more and more healthily【考点】形容词的⽐较级和最⾼级.【分析】﹣﹣罗伊从不喜欢垃圾⾷品.﹣﹣我也不吃垃圾⾷品.那可能是为什么我变得越来越健康的原因.【解答】答案:B healthy and weak健康和虚弱的,形容词原形;形容词或副词⽐较级⽤and 来接,表⽰越来越…weaker and weaker越来越虚弱,more and more healthily越来越健康,这⾥healthily为healthy副词形式,修饰实义动词;healthier and healthier越来越健康,根据句⼦意思"我喜欢垃圾⾷品,那可能是我越来越健康的原因.",become为系动词后跟形容词.故选:B.【点评】考查形容词⽐较等级,理解句⼦的意思以及⽐较的对象和范围,正确运⽤形容词⽐较等级.26..﹣﹣﹣Jack,did you find our old school yesterday?﹣﹣﹣Yes,but with police's help,for it

police's help可知Jack已认不出⾃⼰的学校了,说明学校已⾯⽬全⾮了,故选C.【点评】本题考查副词的词义辨析,先弄清所给词的词义,再根据情景选择正确答案.27..﹣﹣﹣﹣Please look at these stamps.I_____them for five years.﹣﹣﹣﹣Wow,they are fantastic!()A.have keptB.have boughtC.borrowedD.kept【考点】动词词义辨析.【分析】﹣看这些邮票.我已经拥有他们五年了.﹣喔,它们好极了.【解答】答案:A;根据句中的时间短语for five years可知该句为现在完成时态,主语+have/has+动词的过去分词;瞬间动词buy不能和表⽰⼀段时间的时间状语连⽤,故⽤延续性动词keep.故选A.【点评】⽐较和分析四个选项的不⽤含义及其⽤法是解答该题的关键;还要根据句中信息正确推测该句句意,进⽽作出解答.28..﹣﹣﹣Could you help me_____the beef for dinner,Jean?﹣﹣﹣Ok,Mom.I'll do it right away.()A.take offB.knock offC.cut downD.cut up【考点】动词短语.【分析】﹣﹣Jean,为准备晚餐,你能帮我把⽜⾁切碎吗?﹣﹣好的,妈妈.我会⽴刻去做的.【解答】答案:D.take off起飞,脱掉;knock off下班,使减少;cut down减少,砍倒;cut up切碎.根据Could you help me_____the beef for dinner,可知这⾥的意思是为准备晚餐,你能帮我把⽜⾁切碎吗,cut up切碎.故选D.【点评】本题考查了动词短语的⽤法.解答时注意区分辨别句意以及所给选项的意思.29..﹣﹣﹣Where would you like to go on vacation this summer?﹣﹣﹣Brazil.Because the 31st Rio Olympic

summer,以及有关巴西⾥约奥运会的常识,可知举⾏该届奥运会是⼀个将来的事情,所以句⼦所使⽤的时态是⼀般将来时态;再根据主语The 31th Olympic Games是谓语动词hold(举⾏)的承受者,⼆者是被动关系,可知句⼦所使⽤的语态应该是被动语态;所以句中谓语动词使⽤的是⼀般将来时的被动语态.其构成为:will+be+及物动词的过去分词,故选A【点评】在做这类题型时,应根据时间短语判断所使⽤的时态是什么时态,然后再根据主语与谓语动词的关系判断使⽤主动语态还是被动语态.解答本题的关键是掌握⼀般将来时的被动语态的构成为:will+be+及物动词的过去分词30..﹣﹣﹣Have

禁⽌;can't不能;根据交通常识可知绿灯不亮是禁⽌过马路的,故选B.【点评】本题考查介词辨析和情态动词辨析,先弄清它们的含义及⽤法,再根据情景选择正确答案.32..﹣﹣﹣I've no idea where to go next month.﹣﹣﹣Why not____visiting Beijing?There are so many places of interest there.()A.suggestB.wonderC.considerD.regard【考点】动词词义辨析.【分析】﹣我不知道下个⽉去哪⼉.﹣为什么不考虑参观北京呢?那⼉有许多有趣的地⽅.【解答】答案:C;suggest建议;wonder想知道;consider考虑;regard考虑,把…看做;Consider:考虑,认为;多⽤于下结论或作决定;Regard:看作,当成,当作;多⽤于看待事物时的个⼈看法;根据句中信息Why

Peter"在复合句中作定语从句,由于先⾏词the boy为下⽂定语从句的逻辑主语,且指⼈,所以引导定语从句的关系代词⽤that或者who;第⼆个设空处根据后⾯的单数名词birthday 判断需要序数词ninth表⽰"第九个⽣⽇",作birthday的定语.故选A.【点评】本题考查定语从句的关系代词和序数词.做此题的关键是找准先⾏词,是⼈还是物,在从句中做什么句⼦成分,然后根据语法选择正确的引导词,另外注意序数词的正确拼写.34..﹣﹣﹣﹣Could you tell me___Zhang Aiping's hometown?﹣﹣﹣﹣The day after tomorrow,I think.()A.when will you visitB.when you will visitC.why you will visitD.how you will visit【考点】宾语从句.【分析】﹣﹣你能告诉我你什么时候访问张爱萍的家乡吗?﹣﹣我想后天吧.【解答】答案:B.根据Could you tell me,可知本句考查了宾语从句的⽤法.在宾语从句中所使⽤的语序应该是陈述句语序,选项A是疑问句语序,排除掉.再根据The day after tomorrow,可知这⾥表⽰的是时间,提问时间的话应该⽤when.故选B.【点评】此题考查宾语从句.考⽣在答题时要注意"宾语从句必须采⽤陈述语序",根据上下⽂语境确定合适的选项.35..﹣﹣﹣﹣Excuse me,can I sit here?﹣﹣﹣﹣_____.The old man who sat here will be back soon.()A.You're welcome.B.Yes,please.C.You'd better not.D.No problem.【考点】常⽤⽇常交际⽤语.【分析】﹣打扰⼀下,我可以坐这⼉吗?。

关键词:safety---扩展----food safety ⾷品安全Eat healthily 吃得健康补充:clothing/clothes/cloth辨析cloth 当“布料”讲时是不可数名词,但指“某种具体⽤途的布”时是可数名词。
a piece of cloth ⼀块布料 a table cloth ⼀张桌布clothes 指具体的⾐物时是复数,不能⽤a clothes,但a suit of clothes指“⼀套⾐服”。
Her clothes are of high quality.她的⾐服质量很好。
Yesterday her mother bought herself a suit of clothes.昨天她妈妈给⾃⼰买了⼀套⾐服。
clothing 是⾐物的总称,不可数名词,可⽤作an article of clothing(⼀件⾐物)。
Those people lack food and clothing.那些⼈缺⾐少⾷详解:此题,有些学⽣会排出A选项,因为⽼师常讲,food是不可数名词,不能加S。
其实,food作为⾷品的统称时为不可数名词,单数形式,指“⼀种⾷品时”可数,可以⽤复数。

2019-2020年中考英语《阅读表达》专题训练含答案理智使用网络Surfing the Internet can help open students' eyes and get more knowledge. As a teacher, I encourage my students to use the Internet. In class those students who surf the Internet understand lessons better than the others. Besides, people can use the Internet to write letters or stories and send emails. Many students communicate with their friends online. You can also make friends by chatting on QQ. It is cheaper than calling somebody far away and it's also much quicker. Nearlyone third of young people surf the Internet for fun. They like to listen to music, watch films, andgo to their favourite stars' websites. But can the Internet cause problems? Some of my students who used to study well at school are now failing exams. Because they spend a lot of time playing computer games.1. Surfing the Internet can help open students' eyes, can't it? (no more than seven words)2. What's the writer? (no more than seven words)3. How can you make friends on the Internet? (no more than seven words)4. How many young people surf the Internet for fun? (no more than seven words)5. What do you think of surfing the Internet?英语的发展变化How do we know what's right or wrong in English? Languages such as French and Spanish each has an official(官方的)organization that tells you what's correct. But there is nothing like thatin English. So what can we do?There is, of course, Standard English. This is the kind of English you read in newspapers or in formal letters. It is also the English you learn at school or in textbooks.However, Standard English is not official English. And unbelievably, linguists(语言学家)think Standard English is on the same level as all other types of English such as Cockney English,Yorkshire English, South African English, Australian English, Singaporean English... And according to linguists, there is no such thing as Standard Spoken English.English is changing all the time. Every year, new words appear and others disappear. Words change too. For example, for many years, the Latin word "agendum" was the accepted singular form and "agenda" was the plural form. However, these days, very few people use the Latin-sounding "agendum",with "agenda" being the accepted singular form, and "agendas" the plural.Newspapers each has their own style when they write certain things. For example, The Guardian puts dates like "21 July 2011" (with the day first,followed by the month and no commas).However, the news agency Reuters writes them like this "July 21,2011" (with the month first,and a comma(逗号)between the day and the year). Other newspapers have different ways of doing it too. So,as you can see, there's no one "correct" way-there's a variety of ways and eachone is acceptable.Next time someone tells you that something is wrong, tell them that it isn't wrong, it is just English.1. According to passage two, how many ways can you read or learn Standard English(no morethan four words)2. What is the plural form of the Latin word "agendum" in the past?(no more than four words)3. How does the news agency Reuters write "2016年1月20日"?( no more than four words)4. According to passage one, what languages have official organizations that tell you what iscorrect?(no more than four words)5. What should you do when you face the changes of English?肢体语言Body language is one of the most powerful means of communication, often even more powerful than spoken language. People around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitudes that they might never speak aloud. It is possible to read others around us, even if they do not want us to catch their unspoken communication. Of course, body language can be misread, but many gestures and actions are common.The most common facial expression is, of course, thesmile-its function is to show happiness and put people at ease.It does not always mean that we are truly happy, however.Smiles around the world can be false, hiding other feelingslike anger, fear or worry. There are unhappy smiles, such aswhen someone loses face and smiles to hide it. However,the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings.From the time we are babies, we show unhappiness or anger by frowning(皱眉头).In most places around the world, frowning and turning one's back to someone shows anger. Making a fist(拳头)and shaking it almost always means that someone is angry.How about showing that I am bored? Looking away from people or yawning will,in most cases, make me appear to be uninterested. However, if I turn toward and look at someone or something, people from almost every culture will think that I am interested.Being respectful to people is subjective, based on each culture, but in general it is probablynot a good idea to give a hug to boss or teacher. In almost every culture, it is not usually good to stand too close to someone of a higher rank(等级).Standing at a little distance with open hands will show that I am willing to listen.With so many cultural differences between people, it is great to have some similarities in body language. We can often be wrong about each other, so it is an amazing thing that we understand each other as well as we do !1. What is even more powerful than spoken language according to the passage? (no more than fourwords)2. What is the most common facial expression? (no more than four words)3. How do babies normally show their anger? (no more than four words)4. What is not good to do when you stay with someone of a higher rank? (no more than 13 words)5. What does the writer mainly want to tell us? (no more than 14 words)从失败走向成功Why are so many people so afraid to fail? Quite simply because no one tells us how to facethe failure(失败).In fact, failure can become experience that means growth. We forget that failureis part of the human condition and that every person has the right to fail.Most parents work hard to prevent failure or protect their children. One way is to lower standards. Nearly 60% of the parents choose this way. When a child finishes making a table, the mother describes it as "perfect" even though it doesn't stand still. The other way is to blame(责怪)others. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.There's a problem with the two ways. It makes a child unprepared for the real life if they don't meet enough failure. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time. The young should be allowed to experience failure.Failure never gives people pleasure. It hurts both grown-ups and children. But it can be really good to your life when you learn to use it.(Each answer should be no more than 6 words)1. What can failure become in fact?2. How many ways do most parents choose to prevent failure and protect their children?3. How do 60% of the parents prevent failure or protect their children4. What should young people be allowed to experience?5. What should you do when you face the failure?水稻People all over the world eat rice. Millions of people in Asia,Africa, and South America eat it every day of their lives. SomePeople eat almost nothing but rice.Rice is a kind of grass. There are more than 7,000 kinds ofrice. Rice is grown in many countries, even in the southern part ofthe United States and in eastern Australia.No one really knows where rice came from. Some scientiststhink that it started to be planted in two places. They think that onekind of rice was planted in southern Asia thousands of years ago.Someone in China wrote about it almost 5,000 years ago. Another kind was probably grown inWest Africa. Other scientists think that rice came from India,and Indian travellers took it to other parts of the world.There are two main ways to grow rice. Upland rice grows in dry soil. Most rice is planted inwet soil. People in many countries do all of the work of growing rice by hand. This is the sameway farmers worked hundreds of years ago. In some countries, people now use machines on their rice farms. The farmers all use fertilizer. Some insects are enemies of rice. Farmers poison them.People use every part of the rice plant. They make animal feed and rice oil from it. They also make baskets, brooms, roofs and others for their houses. They burn dry rice plants in fires for cooking.(Each answer should be no more than 9 words)1. In what countries is rice an important food?2. How many kinds of rice are there in the world?3. When was rice grown in southern Asia?4. How do rice farmers kill insects?5. Why do people say rice is important?铅笔的承诺Adam Bruan set up the organization(组织)Pencils of Promise in 2008. Its goal is to make sure all children have a chance for education. Six years later, the non-profit organization is building a new school somewhere every 90 hours.

I realized he had never beento school before, and that was the reality(现实)for 57 million children around the world, "Bruan said.Adam Bruan started working in finance(金融)after he graduated from college. But he never forgot the boy and the problem he realized."We live in a world in which every child can have a chance to get a good education, because we have everything necessary already. We are able to educate every child, So I promised to help change that world,"Bruan said.Mr Bruan raised money for his project. He paid for building the first Pencils of Promise School in Laos, five years ago. Since then, his organization has helped pay for more than 200 schools in the countryside of Laos, Nicaragua, Guatemala and Ghana.1. When did Adam Bruan set up the organization Pencils of Promise?

The healthy rice wasnot grown by farmers but by the students from a small primary school of only about fifty people.The idea of growing rice came from the school teachers. When making teaching plans, the teachers decided to teach students how to grow healthy rice on school land. They wanted the students to get closer to the land when doing the rice farming outside the classroom.What's better, the school made money from selling the rice and giving farming classes to the public. With the money, the school could help the students who wished to go to foreign countries some day. Today the dream is becoming real—the students are flying to Japan to share their special farming experiences, and have fun over there, of course!

It ran to warn everyone, "There is a mousetrap in the house!" and wanted to get some help from them.The hen raised its head and said, "Mr Mouse, this mousetrap is only for you. I won't be worried about it." The mouse turned to the pig. "I am sorry, Mr Mouse, but the mousetrap has nothing to do with me either! " the pig said. Then the mouse turned to the cow. "It sounds like you have a problem, not me, " the cow said. The mouse returned to the house with head down and it was very sad because no one would help it.That night the farmer's wife heard aloud sound and she rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness she could not see that it was a snake. The snake bit(咬)the farmer's wife. The wife caughta bad fever and the farmer thought the best way to treat a fever was chicken soup. So the farmer killed the hen for the soup. The wife got worse and her friends came to visit her. The farmer had to kill the pig to feed them. But the wife didn't get better and died.

With this spirit, people try hard to make their team the best of all. Everyone has experienced team spirit one way or another, whether they were part of a team or saw a group of people cheerfor their favourite player.There are different kinds of team spirit. One kind is the connection between a team of people because their efforts and cooperation(合作)are necessary in reaching a particular goal. The second kind is when a group of people support a person or a team. The third is people's natural love for and pride in their country, when a whole nation cheers for its country in competitions.Team spirit can also be seen in the workplace or in some activities.Team spirit creates various good effects. It creates friendship and trust between people who may not get along when they don't have such team spirit. There may also be bad effects. Too great team spirit may cause arguments or fights with other team members.Some people don't understand team spirit properly. They think team spirit means having to become an official member of an organization, team or fan club. In fact, team spirit can be built anywhere-between friends, coworkers or even between two people sitting next to each other. You don't have to be wearing the team spirit clothes. Anyone can show team spirit just by showing support for the goal.1. What is team spirit?2. Which kind of team spirit in the passage do you have in your group work in class?3.

As a result, we think we can see something that is not actually there or we ignore (忽视) things that actually are there.Scientists Daniel Simons and Christopher Chabris have researched this phenomenon (现象), which they call "change blindness". Their experiments show how we sometimes just do notsee what is in front of our eyes because 4Here is one of their most famous experiments. In this experiment, the participants (参与者) were shown a video of two groups of people (one group in white T-shirts and one group in blackT-shirts) who passed basketballs around in a hallway. Each group had three members. Simons and Chabris asked the participants to count how many times the white team passed the ball. While the two teams were passing their balls around, a person dressed up as a big bear walked through the group and stopped to look at the camera.

A lot of people still like to ride horses. And horse racing is also popular. So it is not surprising that Americans use this animal when they talk.Long ago, rich or important people rode horses which were very tall. Today, if a girl acts like she is better than everyone else, you might say she should get off her high horse.Yesterday my children wanted me to take them to the playground. But I had to finish my work, so I said, "Hold your horses. Wait until I finish what I am doing." My two boys like tocompete against each other and play in a noisy and not very careful way. I always tell them to stop horsing around or someone could get hurt.Last night, I got a telephone call while I was watching my favourite TV show. I decided not to answer it because wild horses could not drag (拖,拽) me away from the television. There was nothing that could stop me from doing what I wanted to do.Sometimes you get information straight from the horse's mouth.

'"I'm going for a swim," Ben said, "but you don't want to come. You want to work, don't you?It's much nicer!" Ben laughed loudly. Tom looked seriously at Ben and said, "What is work?What do you call work?""Isn't that work?" Ben asked."Well, no. Does a boy get the opportunity to paint a fence every day?

2020年中考英语阅读理解专题练习《热点话题》新科技Passage1(2019台州)Brooke wanted a doll house and some sugar cookies. So the 6yearold asked Alexa to get them. Alexa wasn't her mom or babysitter. It was a voiceactivated home assistant powered by AI(人工智能). And it made Brooke's wishes come true. A few days later, much to her parents' surprise, a $170 dollhouse and four pounds of cookies showed up. They ate the cookies and gave away the dollhouse to a local hospital. And that's not the end of the story. When a news reporter told the story of what happened on TV, Alexa devices(设备)in many listeners' homes woke up and tried to order dollhouses!Alexa isn't the only AI willing to serve you. Apple Homepod has Siri, Google Home has its Assistant, and the upcoming Galaxy Home device will have Bixby. People who have these devices use them mainly for listening to music, checking the weather, and setting timers. According to a report from The Information, nowadays voice shopping is rare. But many scientists predict a boom(增长) in voice shopping in the near future. Is that a good thing?________. You can shout out an order as soon as you think of it, even if you are cooking, cleaning, o r driving. In addition, people with disabilities who are unable to use a keyboard or mouse can shop without any help.But voice shopping has its disadvantages. Unwanted dollhouses aren't the biggest problem. It's usually very easy to cancel an order or return products. The thing t hat worries some people is that these assistants are always listening. They have to be able to respond when you want them. So they listen for “Alexa”or “OK Google”or another order. When they hear it, they start recording the conversation. Some have worried about what happens to these recordings. Should companies be allowed to use them to learn about people's shopping habits? And what if someone hacks(入侵) the device? The CIA found a way to hack smart TVs to turn them into spies that listen all the time. Others could do the same with any smart device.What do you think? Are you ready to start voice shopping?( )1.

Big companies like China Mobile and China Unicom will start to offer 5G. It is said that 5G promises download speeds 10 to 20 times faster than 4G. For example, we can download a film within just 1 second. But with a 4G network, it takes a few minutes. There will be much bandwidth(带宽) and we can get unlimited(无限的) information.Underwater cities will provide more space. The earth is becoming more and more crowded. We may turn to underwater homes, which will be built as low as 15 kilometers below the sea. And the different temperatures at the different depths(深度) of the sea can be used to provide power for the homes.__③__ For us common people on the earth, the dream of travelling around space will come true.

It is a term forthe Japanese words for “megaphone”and “translate”,which actually makes a lot of sense because it's a megaphone that can translate Japanese into several other languages in real time. When a user speaks Japanese into the megaphone, it recognizes(辨认) and translates what is being said immediately, and outputs the words in English, Chinese or Korean.It sounds amazing, and seeing it in action is wonderful, but Megahonyaku is not good enough. It cannot translate everything you say, as it only stores 300 common expressions, like “The train has been put off”or “Watch your step”. However, the Japanese company behind Megahonyaku promises to add new expressions regularly, which users can get on the Internet.The machine was designed to be used in places like transport stations, airports and places of interest, where quick and exact announcements are needed most. Around 30 Japanese organizations, including the police and guides, have been trying out Megahonyaku for about one year, but Panasonic says it will come onto the market on December 20th. Instead of selling these speech translators, Panasonic plans on renting(出租) them out for less than $183 a month on a threeyear agreement, and offering users future improvements and necessary services.Panasonic has also said that it may add support for other languages, like Russian, depending on customers' needs.

The computer or the machine with AI can think and learn. It is also a field of study that tries to make computers “smart”. John McCarthy, a scientist, came up with(提出) the name “artificial intelligence”over 60 years ago. Many things such as learning and problem solving can be done by computers, though not in the same way as people do.An unusual goal of AI research is to create special computer programs. They can learn, solve problems, and think logically(逻辑地). At present, AI can successfully understand human speech, recognize(识别) human faces, operate selfdriving cars and compete in some game systems like playing Chess. However, some people consider(认为) AI a danger to humans if it develops tooquickly. A famous British scientist also was not for this kind of technology.Math is the basic language of AI. If students are good at math, they will be more likely to become successful AI designers(设计者) in the future. We need not only bright students but also average(普通的) students. As for(对于) average students, if they get enough math skills, they can also become successful AI designers. Besides, a good knowledge of computer science is also necessary for AI designing.Scientists hope to create creative(有创造力的) and emotional(有情感的) AI. The AI can possibly understand human feelings or create art. Many ways and tools have been tried to discover this wide and exciting field.( )1. From Paragraph 1, we know that ________.A. all problems can be solved by computersB. machines with AI can think and learnC. AI has been around for only 60 yearsD. AI works in the same way as people( )2.According to the passage, what can't AI do at present?A. Understand human speech.B. Operate selfdriving cars.C. Compete in some game systems.D.

Paragraph 4 mainly tells us the scientists' ________ about AI.A. wishesB. worriesC. feelingsD. discoveriesPassage5(2019舟山)Fresh green grass. Hundreds of colorful wild flowers. Water running into little pools. Birds making their homes in boxes. The 9,500squaremetre Augustenborg Botanical Garden may look just like any other wellorganized park but there's a difference. It lies on the roofs(屋顶) of industrial and office buildings in the city of Malmö in Sweden.Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a modern city have endless black surfaces with no life or water. Perhaps that's why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more and more people.Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in the summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What is more, they play a part in making the cities hotter than the countryside around them, causing the “urban heatisland effect”. On a green roof, however, with its plants and water, temperatures change only a little, as they do in a park. This can greatly cut the costs of heating and cooling in the building below.Also, a green roof takes in rain water, and protects the city drainage(排水) system. ________And small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this, the city may become part of nature, rather than something completely separate from it.While the cost of building such a roof can still be higher, it can be cheaper in the long term as a result of energy savings. And wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden high above the city's noise and traffic, whether you're at school or in an office or just at home in a ten-floor block?( )1. With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Garden, the writer wants to explain ________.A. how wildlife is protectedB. what a green roof is likeC. how to organize a good parkD. what to do with a spare roof( )2. The underlined word “moderate”in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to “________”.A. raiseB. checkC. recordD. control( )3. Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?A. A green roof is alive.B. A green roof stops pollution.C. A common roof is noisy.D. A common roof increases the cost.( )4. The purpose of the passage is to______.A. discover the problems with green roofsB. introduce the change of green roofsC. show the amazing beauty of green roofsD. describe the advantages of green roofsPassage6(2019烟台)In 1987, a small company named Huawei was started in Shenzhen. After more than 30 years of development, the company has now beaten Apple and become the world's secondlargest maker of smartphones behind Korea's Samsung. It has also become the world's largest supplier(供应商)of 5G.But recently, Huawei faced some difficulties. The U.S. government ordered a ban(禁令)on its sales in America. American officials said Huawei gave information that it collected to the Chinese government. At the same time, the U.S. government planned to stop selling parts and services to Huawei, which was believed that Huawei's business would be hurt.“We have never received such a request from Chinese government and we have never tried to get into other system to collect information.”Ren Zhengfei, Huawei's founder and president said.“The ban from the U.S. would have little effect on our company. Huawei has enough ability to deal with the problems.”Ren added.In an interview several years ago, Ren Zhengfei said, “I started Huawei with only £4,000 at the beginning, but now it has become a $100 billion company.The__experience__was__not__as__romantic__(浪漫的)as__you__imagine.”Facing the ban of the U.S., Huawei is growing. Huawei's smartphone sales around the world rose 50 percent compared to a year earlier in the first three months of 2019. At the same time, sales from both Samsung and Apple fell. So far, Huawei has grown into the world's largest telecommunication equipment(电信设备)supplier, selling in 170 countries. It may beat Samsung as the largest smartphone maker in the near future.( )1. Which company is the largest smartphone supplier of 5G in the world?A. Apple.B. Samsung.C. Huawei.D. Nokia.( )2. Why did the U.S. order a ban on Huawei?A. Huawei's sales in America were growing faster than Apple.B. Huawei refused to supply services to the U.S. government.C. They didn't want Apple to sell parts and services to Huawei.D.

The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means________.A. Huawei's developing experience was hardB. it is romantic to start a company with £4,000C. the romantic experience was a large amount of wealthD. people can understand Huawei's developing experience easily( )5. What does the writer want to tell in the last paragraph?A. Huawei will grow slowly.B. Huawei is full of hope.C. Huawei's sales will be doubled.D.

High school graduates and workers with no special training are encouraged to study in higher vocational colleges. Li said that the number of the new students in higher vocational colleges in China should go up by 1 million this year. This is the first time the central government has a clear plan.This comes after the news of the large shortfall(不足) in highly skilled technicians, although China has millions of technical workers. China is expected to face a shortfall of 3 million skilled workers who can operate the newest machines by 2020. The shortfall will grow to 4.5 million by 2025. Also, vocational education is unsatisfactory(不令人满意的), although there are many vocational colleges in China. In some vocational colleges, the education methods and courses cannot meet the need of upgrading(升级) manufacturing(制造业). As can be seen from the job market, some companies still can't find highly skilled technicians even with high pay.To deal with the problem, some vocational colleges have worked with companies to teach students. They have hired skilled technicians from companies as teachers. With the rising of the skilled workers' social position and pay, it is believed the vocational education system in China will start to play a bigger role in the development of China.( )1. What's the main purpose of the development of modern vocational education in China?A. To train more highly skilled technicians for the job market.B. To help vocational college graduates get higher pay from their work.C. To ask more people to live on themselves with technical skills.D. To encourage more companies to upgrade manufacturing.( )2. What is one of the problems of Chinese vocational education according to the passage?A. Higher vocational college teachers are not well paid and valued.B. There are only a small number of higher vocational colleges in China.C. The education methods and courses in vocational colleges are unsatisfactory.D. Some of the vocational college teachers are skilled technicians from companies. ( )3. The writer believes China's future vocational education is________.A. hopefulB. doubtfulC. unsatisfactoryD. worryingPassage8(2019安顺)Millions of American soybean(大豆)farmers in 2019 are losing money because China is not buying their crops any more. But garlic(大蒜)growers in California are making more money.For many years, sales of garlic in California had been little because of the much cheaper garlic from China. This year, however, California garlic sales are rising because American government increases tariffs(关税)on Chinese products.Christopher, a garlic grower in California, is manager of his company and he said, “In a perfect world, we would love to see the tariffs on China.”Tariffs on Chinese garlic rose from 10% to 25% on May 9, 2019, and the reason is that U.S President Donald Trump increased tariffs on Chinese products worth of $200 billion. Since then, Chinese buyers have almost stopped buying soybeans from the United States and American soybean farmers are now getting worried.Not everyone likes the garlic tariffs in the U.S. Last July Christopher expressed his support on Trump's policy(政策). However, officials from McCormick and Company Inc. didn't agree with the policy. McCormick's CEO, Lawrence told Reuters(路透社)that without Chinese garlic America can't go. Actually, the trade war(贸易战)between China and America is a sign of American hegemony(霸权), and it will destroy American economy and U.S government will lose its trust from other countries in the world.( )1. From the passage we infer(推理)that ________.A. America is buying garlic from China as much as beforeB. American soybean farmers make money as much as beforeC. China is still buying crops from America as much as beforeD. Garlic growers in California are making more money than before( )2. Why is less Chinese garlic bought by America this year?A.

LawrencePassage9(2019福建)All over the world, thousands of animals are used for wildlife tourism. People travel to watch monkey shows, hug baby tigers and swim with dolphins. It might look like fun, but there are reports that animals are hurt now and again. The World Animal Protection(WAP) says that up to 550,000 wild animals are exposed(暴露) to ill treatment around the world; in Cambodia, for example, it's been reported that elephants have died after carrying tourists for long in hot weather. This is getting attention—over 100 travel companies have promised that they will no longer open up such__places. However, some people argue that animal tourism isn't always as bad as it seems. So what do you think?Group Yes●Animals weren't put on this planet for enjoyment. They should be free to live asthey choose.●The way animals are treated is often cruel and causes much pain. Even if treatedwell, they cannot act in the same way as they would in the wild.●We don't need wildlife tourism. We can see animals close up in their natural homein TV programs. There's no need to disturb(打扰) them in real life.Group No●It is enjoyable and educational for people to communicate with the wonderfulanimals. The more people know about them, the more they want to protect them.●Wildlife tourism brings money to poor areas and may be the only way for somepeople to make a living.●Not all animals are treated badly.

There were wolves and bears, many different kinds of deer and large wild cows. There were less than four million people. They lived in small villages protected by wooden walls from the animals outside.All this has changed, of course. Now the population of the United Kingdom has increased to sixtyfive million. Threequarters of Britain is covered with fields, towns or cities. Although 25 percent of land is countryside, new methods of farming mean that there are fewer birds and small animals living in fields than ever before. The United Kingdom is one of the few countries in the world that don't have a large wild animal that eats meat. In Scotland there are only 400 wildcats, but these are much smaller than wolves.Some people would like to change things, however! Some organizations and writers say that Britain needs to become more natural again. They suggest that trees and plants that grew in the UK before towns and cities were built should be allowed to grow again. They even say that large wild animals which have not lived in the UK should be helped to return and live wild. They call this “rewilding”.Not everyone agrees. In the last twenty years, over onemillion trees which at first grew in Scotland have been plantedand there are plans for more—but wild animals? Some peopleask if wolves will attack sheep or even humans. They are alsoangry that rewilding might mean an end to walking in the hills which so many people enjoy. So far there are no wolves or bears in Britain's forests—but soon there might be!( )1. What was the population of the UK thousands of years ago?A. About 25 million.B. Over 65 million.C. More than 61 million.D. Not more than four million.( )2. Why are there fewer birds and small animals in fields in the UK?A. Because more trees have been planted.B. Because there are more large wild animals.C. Because pollution is much worse than before.D. Because people use new methods of farming.( )3. Which paragraph gives opinions from “rewilding”supporters?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 3.D. Paragraph 4.( )4. What are some people against?A. Living closer to nature.B. Planting more and more trees.C. Helping large wild animals return.D. Building more villages and towns.( )5. What's the best title for the text?A. Making Britain wild againB. A trip to wild BritainC. An introduction to BritainD. Protecting the environmentComments:Should Museum Entry Be Free?With International Museum Day coming up, today we are asking readers: Should museums be free or should people have to pay for a ticket? Let us know ‘your view’.Museums are not only there for enjoyment; they are education. This is why they must be free. While museums need a huge amount of money to operate, let the wealthy pay for it. The idea of a person or child interested in art not being able to view it because of cost is wrong.Krista Chen (US)Age 15Free entry does not attract people or encourage them to appreciate art. Generally people respect things that are difficult or costly to get Museums should require regular visitors to pay a fee, but provide free tickets as prizes for highachieving students who can appreciate them more.Fred Smith (New Zealand)Age 14Museums teach people about their past. This is part of our shared culture that should be available to everyone, rich or poor. People should never be asked to pay an entrance fee.Rob Sanchez (Australia)Age 17There are no simple answers. Low ticket prices could help museums stay open. But companies and businessmen should also provide museums with more money and other support. They have a social responsibility too.Amber White (UK)Age 16I think museums and art galleries should all be free to the public. I do, however, think twice a year the museums should organize moneyraising events to help pay for the cost of staying open.Li Mishao (China)Age 15(A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 5.( )2.Who suggests museums should regularly hold special events to collect money?A. Krista Chen.B. Fred Smith.C. Rob Sanchez.D. Li Mishao.( )3. Why does Fred Smith believe that free tickets should be given to highachieving students?A. Students will then study harder.B.

His old jacket and shoes made him unusual that day.A young waitress named Mary watched him move towards a table by the window. She ran over to him, and said with a smile, “Here, sir. Let me give you a hand.”Without saying a word, he gave her a smile. She pulled the chair away from the table and helped him sit down. Then she put his cane against the table so that he could reach it. In a soft, clear voice, he said, “Thank you, miss.”“You’re welcome, sir,” she replied. “I’ll be back in a moment, and if you need anything, just wave at me!”After he had finished a good meal. Mary brought him the change. She handed him his cane, and walked with him to the front door.

You can talk to friends who have traveled to the places, you can go and see a colour film about them, or you can read a travel book. It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective(主观的) idea of travels which their writer has got himself. These books can be useful if the writers share their traveling experiences with others. The second kind are those books which give objective(客观的) information of things to be done and seen. If a cultured person has written such a book about the facts of a place, then it is more useful. The third kind are those books which are called “a guide” to some place or other. If they are good, they will describe and explain the place in detail. Like the first kind , they can be interesting and exciting, but their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most practical way.Whatever kind of travel book you choose, you must make sure that the book does not describe everything as interesting, exciting or fantastic. You must also keep an open eyes on its date of publication(出版) because travel is very practical matter and many things change quickly in the 21st century. Finally, you should make sure that it’s easy to find the useful information for you travel.41.

He walked around, showing off his power and pride.Each day Lion took a long lazy sleep under the shade of his favourite tree. He always dreamed of weaker animals bowing(鞠躬) before him.One day Mouse ran through the jungle and tripped over Lion’s huge paws. Lion woke up with a start. “How dare you wake me up! ” he shouted angrily. Lion grabbed Mouse with one paw. “O n the second thought, I’m in the mood for the snack, and you’ll make a delicious meal.”, he said.Mouse cried out, “King Lion, please spare(饶恕) me! If you let me live, I’ll always remember your kindness. And, some day, I might be able to help you.”“ How could such a powerless little mouse ever help me?” That thought made Lion laugh so much that he decided to let Mouse go. A week later, Lion was walking through the jungle on the way to his favourite tree when he stepped onto a hunter’s net. The net scooped him up. No matter how he twisted and turned, he couldn’t escape.When Mouse heard Lion’s frightened shouts, he raced to help. Mouse quickly chewed(咬)through the ropes to make a hole in the net.

They learned that rain forests are important because the plants and animals of the rain forest give us food, wood, and medicine.Destruction of the world’s rain forests is a serious problem. Unluckily, rain forests are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres per minute! As part of a class project, Myers’students bought three acres of rain forest in Central America. They paid $25 per acre. The students hope that the land they bought will be protected and not destroyed.

My story begins when an old sailor came to the inn(小旅馆)where I lived with my father. My father was the innkeeper.“Do many people came here?” the old sailor asked my father.“No,” my father told him. “It is a very quiet place.”“Good,” the old sailor said. “Then this is a place for me.”“And what’s your name, sir?” my father asked him.“Just call me ‘captain’”, the man said.He put some gold coins on the table. “Tell me when I have spent all these,”he said.Not long after he came to the inn, the captain said to me, “Do you want to earn some money?”“Yes, please,”I answered. I was only a boy at the time and never had any money. “What do you want me to do?”“Keep watch for a man with one leg.”he said, “Tell me as soon as you see him. Do that and I’ll give you a coin every week.”At first, the Captain was a very quiet man and did not want to talk to anyone. But there were nights when he drank a lot of rum.

Then father became ill, and Dr. Livesey came to see him. After giving my father some medicine, the doctor came into the inn. When the doctor waited for a man to bring his horse. The Captain started singing the same song again.The doctor asked him to be quiet. “There was a sick man here,”he said angrily. The Captain took out his knife and pointed it at the doctor.“Put that knife down, man,” the doctor said. “And if you keep drinking rum, you’ll soon be dead.”The Captain was very angry. He began to move toward the doctor.“Keep away from me. If you do anything bad, you’ll be in trouble.” said the doctor.Then the doctor’s horse came, and he rode away from the inn.

Some jokingly or seriously say that friends are made to be used. It makes me very sad.True friendship doesn’t mean that when you need your friend’s help,you will treat him to dinner,and when you have to protect yourself,you will put your friends in a difficult situation.In fact,true friendship is the communication and understanding of the hearts(心).True friendship is like water. Compared wish decent wine,water is tasteless,but is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don’t need to be with each other every day,but are connected in heart every minute.True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter,it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize you when others have a good word for you,not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head.True friendship has nothing to do with fame,power or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential,but come to you whenever you need their help. You’re not his stepping-stone to success,but are his crutch to live through difficulties.True friends make you complete. Many persons go along with you through your life ─your parents,your spouse,and your children,who take care of you and make your life happy. However,you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them,you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.True friends stay in your heart,rather than at your side;they know you more than yourself,and try to better you.Once you have found such a true friend,do treasure(珍惜)him. If your true friend disappears,how can you make the sound of your heart understood?()34.The writer feels sad because some people .A. don’t understand friendshipB. make wrong friendsC. don’t treasure friendshipD. blame their friends()35.The writer speaks of water because .A. it has no tasteB.it is important to our lifeC. it is easy to getD.it stays with us every day()36.The underlined word“influential”in Paragraph 5 means“”.A.busyB.quietC.helpfulD.powerful()37.According to the passage,true friends may help you .A. enjoy mental healthB. achieve successC.understand them betterD. live a happy life【2014南通】CThese days haze(雾霾)is around us here and there. In fact,everyone has the power to change their living habits to help reduce it. Many local governments call on their people to take action to make the air cleaner.Transport is one of the biggest contributors(促成物)to haze. When,where,how,why and what you drive all affect air quality. When one drives to work for one year,he uses as mush energy as a bus rider uses in 10 years. So walk or ride your bicycle to work or school whenever possible. If it is necessary,you can use public transport instead of your car. Each person using public transport for a year instead of a car can save nearly a tonne of pollutants,including CO2,from going into the atmosphere.Carpooling is another way to reduce carbon emissions(排放).Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. It immediately reduces your car’s emissions by half.What you do inside your living space can have a big effect on the air quality outside it. You can do a lot of things inside and around your home that will help you pollute less and save some money.A large amount of our energy supply comes from burning coal,another contributor to haze. By cutting down your electricity use,you are cutting down on haze. So you may try to reduce your use of electricity by turning off lights,using your air conditioner wisely during the summer months,or updating some of your electrical appliances to low-energy models. For example,you can use energy-saving lamps that require less energy and last 10 times longer than common bulbs.()38. Which does the writer think should play an important rode in reducing haze?A. City cleanersB. Haze producersC. Local governmentsD. Common people()39.We can infer(推断)from the passage that the writer thinks .A. cars can be used only when people have toB. cars should be given up as soon as possibleC. cars must be improved to reduce air pollutionD. cars may cause the most serious pollution of all()40. We should reduce the use of electricity mainly because .A. we can save a lot of money by using less energyB. coal is now becoming rarer and rarer on our planetC. harmful things come out while electricity is producedD. electrical appliances send out something harmful to our air()41. Which can be the best title for the passage?A.What are causing haze around usB.What you can do to reduce hazeC.How dangerous haze is to our lifeD.How important it is to reduce haze【2014南通】DFor 21 years,Georges Bwelle watched his ill father traveling to hospitals,which could not offer him all necessary help.Jamef Bwelle suffered only a broken arm at first,but it finally developed into a hematoma. That would affect him for the rest of his life. Bwelle spent years taking his father to overerowded hospitals.It was not easy. They would leave home at 5 a.m. and ran to the hospital to be the first. There were a lot of patients. Some people could die because they were waiting.The situation hasn’t changed much since Bwelle’s father died in 2002.In Cameroon,there is one doctor for every 5,000 people while in the United States there is one doctor for every 413 people. And even if they could see a doctor,many Cameroonians couldn’t afford it.When he saw his father and so many of his countrymen suffer,Bwelle decided to do something about it.He because a doctor himself.And he started an organization,ASCOVIME. It travels into the countryside on weekends to provide free medical care. Since 2008,he and his group of volunteers have helpednearly 32,000 people.Almost every Friday,his team jam into vans and travel to villages in need. In each trip they receive 500 people. Patients come on foot from 60 kilometers around the village for free treatment.The next morning,the team will do simple operations in a schoolhouse,town hall or home,and work into the early hours of Sunday morning.On Sunday,the team heads back to the city,tired but proud of their work. They know that their help can make a world of difference to those they help.For his devotion to his country and people,Georges Bwelle becomes one of the 2013 Heroes voted throughout the world.。

This passage is mainly about “________”.A. How to use ComputersB. Surfing on the InternetC. Information on the InternetD. Internet Safety RulesKey: D BCCDBDo you know why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their special colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of coloring is to protect t hemselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters (猎人). This is because they have the colors much like the trees.Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid (液体)when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over (散开), its enemies (敌人)cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.()1.From the passage we learn that locusts________.A. are small animalsB. are easily found by birdsC. are dangerous to their enemiesD. change their colors to protect themselves()2.How can pests with different colors from plants keep out of danger?A.

Because it is very and strong.B. Because the liquid it sends out can help it escape from its enemies.C. Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies.D. Because it swims faster than any other fish.()5.Which is the best title for this passage?A. The Change of Colors for Animals and PestsB. Colors of Different Animals and PestsC.

He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon(动画片) film for children. When Walt Dis ney heard Nash’s voice, he said”Stop! That’s our duck!”The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight – minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews(侄子). Soon D onald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a goody-goody like Mickey.In the 1930S, ‘ 40s and ‘ 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were no more new cartoons.Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today’s children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.()1. Who made Donald Duck film? ______A. Mickey Mouse.B. Clarence Nash.C. Walt Disney.D. Pluto.()2.

One day the queen had a baby daughter. When they saw their baby, they both cried out, “My goodness! How small it is! It’s hairless and toothless! It’s a monster!” They sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered them to prepare some medicine for her.“When she drinks your medicine, she must grow to the right size and have hair and teeth,” the king said, “If you don’t do this, you’ll have a beating.”The doctors thought it impossible, but they dared not say anything against the king’s order. Just then and old doctor stepped forward. “Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,” he said, “but it takes time. We have to dig a mineral from the KunLun Mountains when the snow melts for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years. So we need twelve years.”At last the king agreed and the doctors took away the little princess. On her twelfth birthday, they brought her back to her parents with long black hair and beautiful teeth.

He was so well known for his good knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came to learn from him. The great man taught his students whole-heartedly and answered their questions with great patience.One day a student asked him, “ My dear teacher, didn’t you say you yourself have many ,many more questions about things than we do? But I think we students have far more than you.”With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circles ,one as large as a big cake, the other smaller. Then he said , “Of course, I have learned much more. But it’s wrong to think that a teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the bigger one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is yours. Out of the circles is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger circle. That means I hav e more opportunities to face what is still unknown. And that’s why I myself have more questions than you do. The more you learn , the more questions you have. You will never learn enough ,you know.”()1.

They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their brain.()1.

But can also be very harmful. Fire can heat water warm your houses, give light, and cook food. But fire can burn things too. It can burn trees, houses, animals, or people. Sometimes big fires can burn forests.Nobody knows for sure how people began to use fire. But there are many interesting, old stories about the first time a man or woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man very, very long time ago. He went up to the sun by a rope and brought fire down.Today people know how to make a fire with matches. Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be very dangerous. One match can burn a piece of paper, and then it might burn a house. A small fire can become a big fire very fast.Fires kill many people every year. So you must be careful with matches. You should also learn to put out fires. Fires need oxygen. Without oxygen they die. There is oxygen in the air. Cover a fire with water, sand, or in an emergency, with your coat or something else. This keeps the air away from a fire and kills it.Be careful with fire, and it will help you. Be careless with fire, and it will burn you.()1. Which is true?A. We are not sure how people started to use fire.B. It is an Australian who started a fire.C. We know how people began to use fire.D. Nobody knows how to make a fire.()2.

We must be careful with fire, or it ______.A. can beB. warms our housesC. might burn usD. will help us()5. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Fire can help people in many ways.B. Fire can be both helpful and harmful.C. Fire can burn things and peopleD. We must be careful with matches.Key: 1.A 2.C 3.D 4.C 5.B。

Even on some special days sending flowers between them is hardly ever seen.Sometimes I really doubt whether there is lovebetween them. Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.One day, my mother was sewing a quilt(缝被子). I silently sat beside her.“Mum, is there love between you and Dad?” I asked in a very low voice.With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said,“Susan, look at this thread(线). It can hardly be seen, but it’s really there.It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love isinside.”I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my fathersuddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital fora month.After they were back, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the countryroad every day.
