They borrowed the money from their mother and sold pizza in a small house in their neighborhood. That's how they got the name of the business.

They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. Any decision could be the tu rning point of your life.I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3.Before I made that decision I wasn’t a good student. I didn’t listen to my parents or teachers, and my grades became poor. Then came the high school entrance exam.At the turning point of my life, my mom wanted to have a conversation with me. I felt impatient but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldn’t refu se. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, Mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard.Mom smiled and asked again, “I asked: what do you WANT to do?”I had never seriously thought about the question before. So, I kept silent.“Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society,” she went on, “it is your own decision. It should be made by yourself, not anyone else, including me. ” After saying that, she had tears in he r eyes.For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about my life, my future and what kind of person I wanted to become.It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in my life—I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that, I needed to study hard.The path to my future became clear to me. I didn’t act rebelliously (叛逆地) any more. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard.Now, I’m 17 and I’m in one of the best schools in my city, in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.Thanks to that decision, I have become what I am today.54.

Winborn’s just several miles up the road.” my father said, “Why don't y ou all get in the car and I’ll drive you there.”They thought for a moment then climbed into the car. They had no luggage(行李), only the clothes they were wearing.When they climbed in, my father said, “I saw Santa this morning, he was too busy. He asked me if he could leave your toys at my house. We'll just go to get them before I take you to the bus st op.” All at once, the three children laughed happily.All this happened a long time ago, but the memory of it remains（保留）clear.

Sir Charles Baskerville had no children, so his entire estate(财产) now pass to his nephew, Sir Henry Baskerville, who has been living in America for many years.” Dr. Mortimer took a letter out of his pocket which was given to him by Sir Charles just before his death 3 months ago. “ If I may, I should like to read the letter to you.”He adjusted hisglasses.“Baskerville Hall, 1742. To my sons, Rodger and John. The legend（传说，传奇）has been told by my father who was told by his father before him. It began 100 years ago in 1642 when this great BaskervilleHall was occupied（占有）by Hugo Baskerville ---a wild, ugly, cruel man.

In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make peo ple get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if educati on is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and maths need not be taught in detail, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach himto speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Educationis to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.58. The earliest education was probably to ______. .A. make a man lead a better lifeB. teach a man to write and readC. make people get a way of livingD. teach people to read good books59.The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “ ______“in Chinese.A. 圆满的B. 崭新的C．公平的 D. 全面的60. It is expected that educated people will be able to ______. .A. accept education as a way of livingB. take an interest in the whole worldC. develop their abilities to make playsD. learn subjects like language and math61.The passage mainly tells us that ______. .A. education should make a man improveB. people can get education in a short timeC. people should be able to get good paying jobsD. all subjects are so important for a way of livingDIn many –even most –space-themed films, whenever Earth faces a disaster, the solution is always fleeing the planet in spaceships. But the latestChinese sci-fi movie, The Wandering Earth, offers a different and moreambitious idea.In the film, based on a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Liu Cixin, Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun. In response, humans around the world work together to build a giant engine system that will push Earth away from the sun. Instead of abandoning Earth again –this time we’re taking it with us.This “ambition” didn’t come from nowhere. For thousands of years, “homeland” has had a soft spot in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. One old idiom is luoyeguigen, which means r eturning to one’s homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree. Or look to an ancient verse: “The season called the White Dew begins tonight/Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright”. These both show the tight bo nd that Chinese people have had with their homeland.This special cultural background is probably what sets The Wandering Earth apart from Hollywood-style space films.“What is Chinese sci-fi?” Guo Fan, the film’s director, said in an interview. “A vehicle thatcan really express our cultural and spiritual core can be called Chinese sci-fi. Otherwise, we’re just imitating others and telling the same American stories.”And the makers of The Wandering Earth may have chosen the best time to tell its Chinese sci-fi story. The film was released on Feb 5, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard journey back to their hometowns.So to them, there is only one possible way to tell the story: Earth goes wherever humans go, because it’s our home.62. What is the difference between The Wandering Earth and Hollywood-style space films?A. A different and more ambitious idea.B. Its Chinese makers.C.The story with great imagination.D. The specical cultural background.63. What does the underlined word ‘abandoning’ mean in Chinese?A. 抛弃B. 毁灭C. 依赖D. 索取64. The makers of this film choose Feb 5 to put on it probably because ________.A. it was the Spring Festival and many people have time to watch itB. many old people want to return to their hometown thenC. it can cause many people’s common feeling at this timeD. Chinese people usually celebrate together on that day65. What can we learn from the passage?A. This film was based on a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Guo Fan.B. This film tells us each of us should return to our hometown when we grow old.C. We should protect the Earth because it is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun.D. The director of this film thinks Chinese sci-fi should have our cultural and spiritual core.51-53. CBC 54-57.

We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War III. She’ll talk about my lack(缺失) of a bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.“Why can’t you be like my co-w orker’s son?” she bemoans all the time. Her co-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in t he community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of fame (名声) or salary(薪水).I understand why my moth er is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 a.m. and usually comes home around 5 p.m. or even 6 p.m. However, I want her to know that by becominga doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.54. Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?A. The writer’s studies.B. The writer’s future jobC. Dinner plansD. Wars around the world55. The underlined word “bemoans” in Paragraph 2 most probably means _____________.A. agreesB. shoutsC. complainsD. smiles56. Which of following statements is probably TRUE about the writer?A. He wants to be like his mother’s co-worker’s son.B. He wants to find a job in his community in the future.C. He doesn’t think his mother’s co-worker’s son is perfect.D. He wants to do something he really likes in the future.57. What do you think the writer will possibly be in the future?A . A doctorB A scientistC An engineerD A writerCYou are given many chances in life to choose to be a victim (受害者) or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, then internalizing (内化) your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are persons who might like to control their lives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred (神圣的) moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same problems, yet their experience of life is different worlds. Victims are easy to be in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others —and even themselves —to feel like victims, too. Creators choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire (鼓舞) not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to decide the direction of their lives.In fact, all of us play the victim or the creator at different points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and go into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the sadness, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative strength in his life.In every moment and every situation, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear goal to change the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.58. What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?A. People and things around you.B. Chances and problems.C. Creators and their choices.D. Victims and their sufferings.59. What can we learn from the passage?A. Creators have the ability to predict future life.B. Creators deal with ups and downs of life wisely.C. Victims can influence more people than creators.D. Victims and creators face quite different things in life.60. The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that ________.A. strong feelings of sufferings in life pull people into victims.B. people need family support to deal with sufferings in life.C. it takes creators quite a long time to clear out their pains.D. one’s experiences decide his attitude toward his life.61. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passa ge?A. To describe victims and creators.B. To compare victims with creators.C. To suggest changing from victims to creators.D. To explain the relation between victims and creators.DSome people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.Now , I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way somewhere, I would say,"sorry, I am a stranger here."Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps. I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting.When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!62.The writer always refuses to give people directions because .A. she's a stranger to the cityB. she doesn't know the peopleC. she has no time to help othersD. she's afraid of giving wrong directions.63.The Friendship Building is the place where the writer .A. livesB. studiesC. worksD. teaches64.The word "embarrassed" in the last paragraph means "_________" .A.尴尬B.困惑C.激动D.拮据65.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The writer is too shy to give others directionsB.The writer has a very poor sense of directionC.The writer never got lost when she was young.D.The man was quite nervous when he saw the writer.51-53 ADC 54-57 BCDD 58-61 ABAC 62-65 DCAB江都区邵樊片AGood news!

One of his short works, A Christmas Carol,is a simplestory but it has a strong social theme. Scrooge has a lot of money but henever shares any of it. He hates giving money to people even if they are introuble.At Christmas, presents are given and everyone is kind, but not Scrooge. He is an outsider (局外人) at Christmas. When people wish him a happy Christmas, he tells them the holiday is rubbish.Then on Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by some ghosts. The ghost of his businesspartner Marley tells him bad people are punished after they die. This is Scrooge’s last chance to be good.Then the ghost of past Christmases comes and shows him happy things he did in the past before he became so unkind. He remembers parties, dancing and delicious food.The ghost of the present Christmas shows him that people are happy on Christmas Day. His clerk (雇员), Bob Cratchit, does not have much to eat, but the family is happy, even the little boy Tim who is ill.The ghost of the future Christmases talks about a dead man. People are rather happy when he dies and do not go to his funeral (葬礼). Scrooge asks who it is. The ghost shows him a stone and on it is written: Scrooge.Scrooge learns the lesson. Money is not real treasure, but friends, love and helping people are. Scrooge’s behaviour is completely changed. H e does not think about money any more. He gives Christmas presents, sends a turkey to the Cratchits, and pays for medicine for Tim so that he stays alive and grows up strong and healthy.Dickens may not be considered a great thinker, but he is a good story-teller. And A Christmas Carol has been read by millions of people and watched on film by millions more.( )55. Who writes the story A Christmas Carol？。

扬州地区2019-2020年上学期九年级英语第一次月考试卷分类汇编任务型阅读梅岭中学Food waste is a world's problem. Every year, about 1.3 billion tons, or one-third of all the food produced is thrown away, according to a survey. Using just 25 percent of that wasted food could feed 870 million hungry people, which would end world hunger. The people of France wasted 234 pounds of food per person, which is much better than some other countries. In the past, France wasn't good at controlling food waste, but now the country takes the lead.A law was made by French government.

It is the color of grass, the leaves on trees and most growing plants. Sometimes, the word “green” means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished.For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the 15th century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horn had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the 18th century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today. Someone who has ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early 1990s. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.The Green revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains (谷物). The new plants produced much larger crops (庄稼). The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural (农业的) scientists who had green thumbs. Green is also the color used to describe the powerful emotion, envy. The green-eyed monster (怪物) is not a terrible creature (生物) from outer space. It is an expression used about four hundred years ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play “Othello”. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone else has something he wants. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or, the green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay rise and she does not.76 Main 77 means 78 experience 79 thumb 80 who81 development 82 through 83 describes 84 other 85 used江都区邵樊片Food waste is a world's problem. Every year, about 1.3 billion tons, or one－third of all the food produced is thrown away, according to a survey. Using just 25 percent of that wasted food could feed 870 million hungry people, which would end world hunger. The people of France wasted 234 pounds of food per person, which is much better than some other countries. In the past, France wasn't good at controlling food waste, but now the country takes the lead.A law was made by French government.

We are so used to them that we often do not even realize how many we see and hear in a day!What is an adver tisement? An advertisement provides information and uses creative languages and attractive pictures to encourage people to buy a product or service or believe in an idea. Newspapers, magazines, the Internet, radios and televisions are the most places to find advertisements. There are two main types of advertisements—commercial advertisements and public service advertisements (PSAs). A commercial advertisement is one which someone pays for to promote(提升) a product or service. PSAs are often placed for no money, and are to used to educate people about health, safety, or anything that affects public welfare(福利).Does an advertisement tell people the complete truth? China has strong laws to protect people from advertisements that lie or try to make people believe untrue promise about products or services. However, we still must care about the methods used in advertisements to try and sell us things. Even if an ad does not lie, it does not mean it tells the complete truth. One toothpaste ad says “Bright-teeth fights bad breath!” the advertisers want you to read the word “fights” and think that the toothpaste cures bad breath, but it does not say that! We must not fall for this kind of trick!Public service advertisements. Not all ads play tricks on us though. PSAs use some of the same methods, but they are made to serve the public. PSAs are meant to teach us and help us lead better lives. You have probably seen or heard some of them yourself, like “Yes to life, no to drugs” and“Knowledge changes life”. These ads deal with large social issues(问题). There are also PSAs that educate people about public service projects, such as Project Hope. All of these ads are meant to be helpful, and you can often get much knowledge by following the advice they give.Try to remember: think about why you should do or buy the things the ad suggests. We all want to be smart about what we believe, so treat advertisements smartly.76.

On the way back from work every evening, more often than not （往往）there would be a homeless man standing at the exit of the freeway （快车道）. He looked to be in his late 40s but was probably a lot younger. He had shoulder length straight black hair and a short beard.Every day after work I would remember to gather any spare change, and put it aside to give him if I saw him. A feeling of joy would come over me every time I saw him, while coming off the ramp（坡道）. So did he. Sometimes thered light would be on for a minute and we would ask each other about our day. His answer would always be the same, “I 'm blessed! ”Then one day I was called into my boss ' s office and was told that I was being laid off（解雇）. For the rest of that day all I could think of was “ how am I going to provide for my kids as a mother, how am I going to pay rent? ”It is clear that on my way home that day I was very sad and upset. I didn ' t remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready like I usually did. Yet there he was as always, as I turned the ramp. He set his eyes on me, while still smiling and waving at others as usual.While I was waiting for the red light to turn, he strolled （闲逛） over to my car. He had a big smile. He looked at me straight i n the eyes and said, “ Today I will give you a dollar. ” He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill.You see that day he taught me a valuable lesson more than a dollar bill. No matter what material things are taken from you, no one can take away your choice to be joyful. Every time I ' m faced with challenges, I think of thehomeless man' s valuable lesson and remember that I am blessed.1. Why did the writer feel sad and upset after out of the bo ss ' s office?A.

When Christie Andrews was born, she weighed less that half of one kilogram. Her heart was the size of a large coin. Her mother said Christie was so small that she could hold her in the palm of one hand.Christie couldn ' t breathe without a machine to give her oxygen. If she had been born 20 years earlier, she would probabl y have died at once. She needed two operations, but she survived without serious damage.Twenty years ago , 90% of all premature （早产） babies died. Today, doctors manage to save four out of every five, because they have better machines for breathing and better ways to feed thebabies.But saving Christie ' s life cost more than $ 400,000. In some cases, doctors spend 1 million dollars saving a single child. The parents usually don ' t have enough money to pay.T he government, an insurance company or the hospital picks up the bill. Even after a baby goes home from the hospital, it may require medical care.Some people think it makes more sense to spend money saving 10 adults who have cancer or other diseases than saving one small baby. But nobody wants to be the doctor who has to tell parents to their faces, “ Sorry, I won ' t saveyour new child. ”1. Parents don ' t pay their babies ________ 'hospital bills because .A. they don ' t have enough moneyB. they would rather save cancer patientsC. doctors don ' t care if the babies dieD. it makes more sense to have a bigger baby2.

The main idea of the article is _____________ .A. doctors must never decide whether to save babies or cancer patientsB. doctors are able to save premature babies, but the cost is very highC. having a premature baby was cheaper and safer 20 years agoD. Christie survived because the hospital paid her bills21. Scientists are placing robotic dogs in the homes of lonely old people to test whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, an expert （专家） in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-assisted study on the effect of robotic dogs on old people ' s depression （沮丧） , physical activity, and life satisfaction. In the study, the robot, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who livealone. Before placing AIBO in the home, scientists will collectbaseline data （数据） for six weeks. These old people willkeep a diary to note their feelings and activity beforeand after AIBO. Then, the scientists will review the datato test if it has produced any changes in the life ofits owner.“I talk to him all the time, and he responds tomyvoice, ” says a seventy -year-old lad “ When I 'm watching TV,he' ll stay in my arms until he wants down. He has his own mind. ”The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The scientists say they have some advantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns.“At the beginning, it was believed that no one would relate （与... 相关）to the robotic dog, because it was metal and not furry. ” Beck says. “Hopefully,down the road, these robotic pets could become a more-valuable health helper. They will record their masters ' blood pressure, oxygen levels or heart rhythms （心律） . AIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate（刺激） older people 's minds. ”1. _____________________________________________________ The purpose of Beck and Edwards ' study is to _____________________________________ .A. understand human-animal relationshipB. make lonely old people ' s life betterC. find the causes of old people ' s lonelinessD. improve the animal-assisted research2. In the research, the old people are asked to ____________ .A. note the activities of AIBOsB. keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeksC. record their feelings and activityD. study the collected information3. What does the underlined word “ removes” mean ?A. moves againB. is movableC. doesn ' t needD. need4.
