From September to February each year, Dazhong Mountain in Chuxiong, Yunnan is home to more than 50, 000, 000 migratory birds (候鸟). People used to call the mountain Daqueshan, which means bird-hunting mountain.The villagers used to hunt birds on the mountain. Then one year, they couldn’t hear birds singing. People started to worry if migratory birds would return again. In 1984, the Hongtupo Forest Police Station was set up. The officers worked on the mountain, trying to find migratory birds and stop people from hunting them. The job was really difficult. They might lose their way or meet dangerous animals.The officers also tried to tell villagers the importance of protecting birds and other wild animals. They visited the villagers door to door and helped them with farm work. They even organized activities in schools to get their messages across to children. Now, even children know that birds are to be loved. The mountain is greener, the water is clearer, and more and more animals come to live here. It has become abird-protecting mountain. Many people have opened bed-and-breakfasts (民宿) for birdwatchers.“The village has changed a lot, and we don’t hunt birds anymore,” people say. Since people have stopped hunting, the police station now mainly works to save injured (受伤的) wildlife.1．How many migratory birds live on Dazhong Mountain from September to February?2．What did the villagers on Dazhong Mountain use to do?3．What danger might the officers face on the mountain?4．What do you think we should do to protect the birds?

Obey the rules of British roadsBritish roads, some of the safest in the world. A study in 2018 compared more than 30 countries and found that 3.8 people per 100,000 died in traffic accidents in the UK. This number was lower than any other country. So, what did British drivers do to achieve this? What are they doing differently? Here are five top tips for drivers who are planning a trip to the UK.People in Britain drive on the left side of the road. In fact, a long time ago people drove on the left in most countries, but now only a few countries have this. Don't forget that this also means you must drive the other way around roundabouts （环岛） .British people feel that waiting should be fair for everybody. If you are in a queue of traffic, then don't try to push past the cars in front of yours. This is called "jumping the queue". You must wait for your turn; otherwise people may get angry with you.You must stop at the traffic lights when they are red. In many countries, it is OK to go past the red lights if you are turning a corner or if there isn't any other traffic around. In the UK you could have a lot of trouble if you do this.If another driver flashes （闪烁） his cars lights at you, he is probably trying to tell you that he will wait for you to go first. British people don't like to use their car horn （喇叭） much and they think people who do so are rude.If you get in an accident, don't try to pay the police. The police in the UK never take money, and if you try to offer them some, you could end your holiday visiting British prison.（1）How many tips are mentioned in the passage?（2）Which side do British people drive on?（3）If you jump the queue, how will other drivers feel?（4）What does the driver probably mean if he flashes his car's lights at you?（5）If you give the police money, what will happen to you?【答案】（1）Five.（2）On the left.（3）They may feel angry.（4）He will follow you.（5）You'll be in prison.2．根据短文内容，从下列七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

仁爱版英语中考阅读理解专项训练试题及答案（1）AIf you like to put on your earphones and listen to your favorite music, your parents must have told you that “Turn that down before you go deaf!” Well, they have a point. Loud noise from your earphone can hurt your hearing both temporarily and permanently. Hearing loss means a person can’t hear clearly any more. For some people, that even means not being able to hear at all.If the noise around you is so loud that you have to shout to make other people hear you, you may get your ears hurt. Temporary hearing loss can happen after you listen to some loud noise for 15 minutes. If you have temporary hearing loss, you won’t be able to hear as well as you did before. Luckily, these signs will usually go away and your hearing is likely to return to normal. But if someone listens to loud noise for too long every day, permanent hearing loss can happen. This means the person’s hearing won’t be as good as it was before. That’s why some factory workers need to wear ear protection. Listening to loud music a lot can cause ear damage, especially if you use earphones.However, you can help keep your hearing good, if you’re going to a concert and you know the music is going to be loud, consider wearing earplugs to protect your ears from the noise.

I found myself scared by the smiles of the copied boys when I looked at the picture again. To me, a world of cloned people is a world where the rules of nature are broken, which may bring a lot of problems we’ve never thought of.( )1. How did Gregory get this picture?A.

Now over 25 million people around the world use it to keep in touch with friends. People like Facebook because it makes them feel comfortable. On Facebook, they can share happiness or sadness by posting pictures and videos. Also, they leave message and give online presents to their friends. Now Facebook, like Ebay, is a place for people to sell things.The best part about Facebook is to help find old friends. For people, the only thing to do is sign in their real names.
