The carnival is at the end of August each year, and the main days are Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday.The festival started as a local West Indian event, but from a small procession (游行) through the streets of Notting Hill, it's a huge multi-cultural arts festival now. In fact, it is the largest street carnival (嘉年华会; 狂欢节) in Europe. Only the Rio Carnival in Brazil is bigger.At the heart of the festival is a spectacular (壮观的) parade (游行). The carnival route (路线) is three miles long and hundreds of groups move along it. There's music, decorated floats, elaborated costumes and dancing. There are also live stages where artists from all over the world perform, but there is a lot more to the festival than just music.

Normally grasshoppers don't travel in groups and so they do little harm. But when there are lots of them, their bodies and behavior change. That's when they become locusts. Locusts travel in huge groups, laying eggs along the way, which produce even more locusts. In a single day, a small swarm (群) of the insects can eat as much food as 35,000 people do.The locust swarms in Ethiopia and Somalia are the worst in 25 years. These locusts are desert locusts. They began swarming about six months ago. By moving with the winds, desert locusts can travel up to 90 miles a day or more.Locust swarms are more common when heavy rains follow a long dry period. The insects lay their eggs in the wet ground. This season, East Africa has had its heaviest rainy season in 40 years.When the insects swarm, one square kilometer of land can hold as many as 150 million locusts. There are 700 square kilometers of land covered by the insects in Kenya alone.The insects are a threat to lives in the region, where food is already in short supply. Already many farmers who keep animals are struggling because locusts have eaten out the plants the animals usually live on.In East Africa, farmers have been shooting into the air or making noises in the fields, but that doesn't work against so many insects. Experts say that spraying pesticides (杀虫剂) over large areas from airplanes is the only way to reduce the number of insects. The UN has released (释放) $10million to help deal with the locust problem. The UN says about $70 million is needed to truly control the locusts with pesticides.（1）Which is TRUE about locusts?A.Normally they don't travel in groups.B.A small swarm of locusts eat a lot of food a day.C.They lay eggs in the wind.D.They do little harm to the plants.（2）East Africa has got the locust problem because .A.the land is too dry to grow cropsB.farmers pull out all the grass thereC.poor people love to eat locusts as foodD.it has too much rain after the dry season（3）How many locusts are there in Kenya?A.About 150,000,000B.About 700,000,000C.About 1, 850. 00,000D.About 105,000,000,000（4）According to the passage, a "threat" probably can .A.bring good luck to peopleB.make people live a happy lifeC.cause danger in the futureD.help keep more animals（5）We can infer from the last paragraph that .A.farmers are trying to scare the insects offB.spraying pesticides can't solve the locust problemC.the UN thinks the locust problem isn't seriousD.East Africa has required no more help so far二、任务型阅读（共1题；共1分）5.阅读短文，从短文下面方框中的六个句子中选择五个还原到短文中，使短文通顺完整、衔接自然。

After a serious car accident, Felicia had to get used to getting around in a wheelchair(轮椅). But that didn’t stop her from following her dream of becoming a top horse rider.In early June 2011, 17-year-old Felicia got hit by a car. When she woke up in the hospital, she found both of her legs were missing. However, Felicia didn’t quit trying to achieve her dream. She wanted to get back on the horse. She had ridden as a little girl and decided in the hospital to try again. She wasn’t sure if she would be able to. But after ten weeks’ training, she could ride once again!“The horses have meant a lot to me,” Felicia said. “When I sit on a horse, I don’t feel like the disabled Felicia, I feel like the confident(自信的) Felicia.”She has won many competitions since taken part in competitions around the world, showing she doesn’t need legs to win.

According to local artisans（工匠）, the Weifang kite-making can date back to 2,000 years ago. At first, they were often used for measuring distances and communicating. During the Ming Dynasty（1368-1644）, kites started to be popular among ordinary people as entertainment. In 2006, the Weifang kite-making was included in the national-level intangible cultural heritage（非物质文化遗产）lists.Yang Hongwei, 56, was born in a kite-making family. Yang often saw kites with brightcolors and different shapes in her grandfather’s workshop. “Every time I see these beautiful kites, my sadness and down feelings go away,” said Yang. Yang started to learn the skill from her grandfather at the age of 16. After practicing the skill for 10 years, she started her own shop in 1992.On Yang’s kites, people can see not only common styles like butterflies and swallows, but also some prints telling Chinese traditional stories, legends and history. For example, she once made a kite showing a phoenix head（凤头）lined with paintings of 50 famous women in Chinese history on each side. Though the idea was cool, the process was not easy. Yang said that each woman had different characters in appearance, clothing and the make up style. To create their images, she spent much effort and time checking historical records or discussing the details with experts.In her spare time, she also travels to different countries including Germany, Australia, the US and New Zealand to tell people about Chinese stories seen on kites and the traditional ways of making kites. “I’m an inheritor of the culture. It’s also one of my important jobs to spread the heritage around the world and onto the next generation（一代人）.” she said. 11．According to the first paragraph, which one is true?A．The Weifang kite-making has a history of 3,000 years.B．Ancient people used kites to guide ways.C．Kites became popular only among ordinary people.D．People flew kites for fun in the Ming Dynasty.12．What can we learn from paragraph 2?A．Yang’s special connection to kites.B．When Yang started her own shop.

New research now suggests that has already happened over the past years.A study coming out in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science found that in most poor countries, higher temperatures are more than 90% likely to have resulted in a fall in economic output（经济产量）, compared to a world without global（全球的）warming. The influence has been less big in richer countries—with some even benefiting（获益）from higher temperatures.“We’re not saying that global warming created inequality（不公平）,” says Noah S. Diffenbaugh, the writer of the study and a professor at Stanford University who studies climate change. But “global warming has slowed down the improvement”. The poorest countries are facing the worst influence of rising temperatures—for which they are least responsible, he adds.The new study builds on past research. A 2015 study in the journal Nature predicted that the average income（平均收入））in the poorest countries will be 25% lower by 2100 compared to a world without warming, while some of the richest countries—like the USA—could experience an increase in income. And a report from IPCC, the UN’s climate science body, showed that if global temperatures rise more than 1.5℃ by the end of the century, poor countries will likely face very serious challenges, including the disappearance of whole communities and millions of early deaths. “They will suffer the most, as they are already,” said Mary Robinson, who used to be a UN Special Envoy on Climate Change and a president of Ireland.The influence is greater elsewhere, especially in Sub-Saharan, African countriesincluding Sudan, Burkina Faso and Niger, where climate change has driven the average income more than 20% lower. “There are a number of ways by which temperature influences economic activities,” says Diffenbaugh What’s clear is that, for poor countries, the news is all bad.16．According to the text, warmer temperatures ________.A．are mainly caused by poor countries B．can improve the poorest people’s health C．had no influence on the world before D．has slowed down the improvement of the world17．What does “suffer” underlined in Paragraph 4 most probably mean in Chinese?A．供应B．犹豫C．遭受D．谋利18．Which of the following will face greater economic problems caused by climate change? A．The UN B．The USA C．Ireland D．Burkina Faso 19．From the passage, which one is RIGHT?A．Climate change can cause millions of early deaths.B．We must take action to deal with climate change.C．Climate change will make poor countries poorer.D．People make good predictions about climate change.20．What’s the passage mainly about?A．The rising temperature.B．The influence of climate change. C．The bad influence of higher temperature to poor countries.D．Who can benefit from higher temperature?二、阅读还原6选5There are certain foods which should never be stored(储存)in the fridge. Some of them may surprise you.____21____ The cold temperature will make it hard. If you have made sandwiches with the bread, then you can store them in it.We all love to have tomatoes. ____22____ The cold air in the fridge stops theripening(成熟)process.

We will be more unlucky if we lose happiness,” Jim said calmly.Jack thought for a while and nodded. The next day, he followed Jim around the city and had a good time for a few days. During their stay in the city, they found by accident that people there decorated their walls with things that looked like what they used to make pots.

At first, the seller asked $100 for it, but I bargained with him until he agreed to take only $50. I thought I got a good deal, but my friend got an even better deal.

He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp（煤油灯）. Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult. It was common in his village. Many children left school for this reason, so they remained poor for the rest of their lives.Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university. He continued to worry about the kerosene lamp. By this time, he realized it was not just bad for schoolchildren but for the whole family. First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food. It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment. Yet Evans did not give up.One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar（太阳能的）light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization heard about this and provided money for him to build more solar lamps.Each lamp only cost $20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only earned around $34 a week, so Evans made sure he kept the cost down. First, Evans used recycled materials. Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free.Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference.16．What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A．Leaving school. B．Doing homework.C．Having eye problems. D．Having a bright idea.17．How many problems about kerosene lamps are mentioned according to Paragraph 2?A．6. B．5. C．4. D．3.18．Put the following information into correct order according to the passage.a. Evans went to a university.b. Thousands of people had safe light.c. His first solar lamp was invented. d. Kerosene lamps hurt Evans’ eyes.e. Recycled materials were used in the lamps.f. People from many countries gave away money.A．d-a-c-e-f-b B．d-f-b-a-e-c C．a-d-f-e-c-b D．a-e-c-d-f-b 19．Why does the writer give Julia’s example in Paragraph 5?A．To share J ulia’s experience.B．To show Evans’ influence.C．To describe Evans’ feelings.D．To introduce Evans’ invention.20．What is Evans like according to the passage?A．Polite, talented and humorous.

The horse has played an important role throughout human history all over the world. Horses were used for thousands of years as a means of transportation, a weapon of war and a plougher of fields(犁地农具), but "the horse was more than just a vehicle - it had more character than a car, a tank or a tractor," Clare Balding wrote for The Telegraph.In the Middle Ages in Western societies, the horse was a symbol of chivalry（骑士神）and nobility(贵族). In fact, the word "chivalry" comes from "cheval" in Old French, which meant horse. The idea of chivalry helped to fashion the19th-century "gentleman", which was about good manners, courage and honesty to friends.Nowadays, because of economic(经济) development, people in Western societies are less likely to see or ride horses. People living in cities, in particular, hardly ever experience horses except through movies, paintings or books. But horse racing, and betting .money on horse races, is still popular. The Kentucky Derby is one of the most popular sporting events every year in the US.In the UK, the royal police still go around the city on horseback and the Queen rides in a traditional horse-drawn carriage on "ceremonial occasions (正式场合)”．Some sayings about horses are still used in English today. For example, people still say "hold your horses" to mean “slow down". If someone seems too proud, people might tell him or her to "get off his or her high horse". And since horses are strong and energetic, there are expressions such as "as strong as a horse", "workhorse" and "horsing around". .Interestingly, the horse also appears in many Chinese sayings, such as Qianlima, which means a talented person. Other Chinese horse sayings include Madaochenggong (instant success) and Baimawangzi (prince charming).Besides their physical strengths, horses are smart and have "excellent memories", according to Discovery News. Maybe that's why Chinese people say, "An old horse never gets lost".Since the horse is honored as a symbol of many great qualities, people born in the Year of the Horse are said to share them.1．According to Chinese tradition, which year is welcomed best officially?A．the Year of the Snake B．the Year of the TigerC．the Year of the Mouse D．the Y ear of the Horse2．According to the passage, which is NOT the role of the horse nowadays?A．A weapon of war.B．The royal police's transportation to go around in the UK.C．Race horses.D．Animal actors in movies.3．If a friend of yours is overconfident, what are you supposed to tell him or her?A．Hold your horses. B．Get off your high horse.C．Be as strong as a horse D．An old horse never gets lost4．According to the passage, which is NOT the reason why people like horses?A．The horse has played an important role throughout human history all over the worldB．The horse was a symbol of chivalry and nobility in the Middle Ages in Western societies.C．Besides their physical strengths, horses are smart and have “excellent memories".D．Horses are only used as a means of transportation like a car, a tank or a tractor.5．From the passage we know that .A．Economy develops a lot, so people in Western societies hardly see or ride horses nowadays.B．The Kentucky Derby is one of the most popular betting events every year in the US.C．Qianlima in Chinese means a person who can run one thousand kilometers a day.D．Since the horse is honored as a symbol of many great qualities, people born in the Year of the Horse are said to be as strong as a horse.B14、Dragons are not real animals, but look like a combination (组合体) of many animals such as snakes, fish and deer. They have two horns (角) and a long moustache (胡子). With fantastic powers, they fly in the sky or swim in the sea. They can make rain, too. The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and goodluck. The emperors of ancient China loved dragons. Their clothes were covered with pictures of dragons.We a re proud to call ourselves the “descendants (传人) of the dragon”. In Chinese, “excellent”people are often called “dragons”. A number of Chinese sayings and idioms talk about dragons, for example, “Hoping one's child will become a dragon,” which means hoping he or she will be successful.It is said that people born in the Year of the Dragon have certain characteristics. They are creative, confident, brave and quick-tempered. There are some famous “dragons”who have done excellent things, for example, Deng Xiao ping, the famous businessman Li Jiacheng and the movie star Zhao Wei. They are all very successful.There are also some traditional festivals about dragons in China, such as Dragon Head – Raising Day and Dragon Boat Festival. We have different kinds of activities to celebrate them. These two festivals come every year, but the Year of the Dragon comes every twelve years. It was the year of the Dragon in 1976.The dragon is very important in Chinese culture. As the“descendants of the dragon”, it is necessary for us to know the views on dragons in our culture. It can help us understand why our parents always want us to be“dragons”.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

2022年山东省德州禹城市中考二模英语试题
2022年山东省德州禹城市中考二模英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读单选In 2021, the 35-year-old man, Han Qian took charge of recruitment (负责招聘工作) at the V olunteer Department of the Beijing 2022 Organizing Committee. Luckily, he was also a volunteer at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.“I’m happy to take part in two Olympics,” said Han. “Being a volunteer is different from organizing (组织)them, though both are great experiences. The love of volunteering work is necessary for the former (前者) while the latter needs more thinking and planning, especially as we’re facing many new challenges.”Because of COVID-19, volunteers needed to be quarantined (隔离) for two weeks before Feb 4, as well as after the Winter Olympics and Paralympics. This meant they had to give up more time for this job. As around 90 percent of the volunteers were university students, according to Han, this could influence their schoolwork. So Han’s team had helped schools to support the students as much as they could. Han’s team worked with schools to recruit students. “For example, volunteers from Tsinghua University take charge of the National Stadium, while those from Peking University take care of the National Aquatics Center,” Han said.The cold weather was another challenge, as some events would be held outdoors. The outdoor volunteers needed to have physical training, like 15-kilometer walks, to prepare for their work. The organizing committee also provided hats and warmer clothes for them.“Many volunteers have developed interest in winter sports because of this experience,” Han said. “I’ve seen them post pictures of themselves skiing and skating. I’m happy that the volunteering experience is giving them. Of course, so are we.”1．How old was Han Qian when he first became a volunteer of the Olympics?A．13B．22C．26D．352．What is necessary for organizing volunteers?A．facing many new challenges.B．The love of volunteering work C．thinking and planning D．more thinking and planning 3．Tang lan is a volunteer from Tsinghua University, where can she take charge of? A．The National Stadium B．Peking UniversityC．Tsinghua University D．The National Aquatics Center 4．Which of the following were mentioned about the new challenges?①COVID-19 ①cold weather ①physical training ①organizing volunteersA．①①B．①①C．①①D．①①5．If you want to read this passage on the Internet, which subject can you click?

Under the plan, the country would make it illegal(不合法的)for people born after 2008 to buy cigarettes(香烟)．The plan is made to keep young people from ever starting to smoke. And it won’t make a difference to people who are smokers now.Starting in 2023, people under the age of 15 would be banned from buying cigarettes. After that, the age for buying tobacco products(烟草产品) would be raised every year. By 2050, someone would have to be at least 42 years old to buy cigarettes. In short, the move will stop people born after 2008 from ever buying tobacco products.Tobacco products contain a drug called nicotine(尼古丁). Though nicotine is harmful, when people have a little bit of it, it can give them an exciting feeling. Over time, nicotine changes the body so people feel like they need more of it. They may feel sick if they don’t get more. Then people are unable to stop taking it. That’s why it’s so difficult for people to stop smoking.________. It’s one of the leading causes of deaths around the world. In New Zealand, about 5, 000 people die every year of illnesses connected with smoking. No country has ever tried an age limit-raising plan like New Zealand’s before. The government says studies show that cigarettes sales to young people drop when the age limit is raised. The new plan, which is expected to become a law next year, is the first of its kind in the world.11．What’s the purpose of the new plan?A．To prevent young people from smoking.B．To keep people from smoking.C．To stop people from buying cigarettes.D．To encourage young people to start smoking.12．Which word can replace the underlined word” banned”?A．allowed B．stopped C．encouraged D．agreed 13．What can we know about nicotine according to paragraph 3?A．It is a kind of medicine.B．It’s good for some sick people.C．It can make people feel nervous.D．It can bring people excited feelings. 14．Which of the following sentences can be put into the blank?A．It is very expensive to buy cigarettes in New Zealand.B．But sometimes cigarettes can make people relaxed.C．Do you want to know more about cigarettes?D．Smoking tobacco is very dangerous to human health.15．In which part of a newspaper may you read the passage?A．Health.B．Sports.C．Technology.D．School life.People expect to see all kinds of beautiful fish when they visit an aquarium (海洋馆). However, visitors to a Shanghai aquarium were surprised when they saw some bionic(仿生的) fish instead. This kind of bionic fish -- “whale shark” showed up in Shanghai in January, CGTN reported.Developed by Chinese researchers, the 4.7-meter-long “shark” has mechanical fins (机械鳍). It can swim, turn and dive like a real shark. It swims as fast as 0.7 meters per second and can go as deep as 10 meters underwater. What are these bionic fish used for?Bionic fish like this are not just for pleasing aquarium visitors. They can be used in different areas. According to iMedia News, maybe they can used in military(军事). Bionic fish produce almost no noise. They will not be found easily, which means they can swim around submarines (潜水艇) without being noticed. Compared to anti-submarine aircraft (反潜艇飞机), anti-submarine “fish” are cheaper and can work better.Besides military and research uses, bionic fish are helpful for underwater rescue (救援) and archaeology (考古). Smaller bionic fish can swim in and around sunken ships(沉船), sending all kinds of information back to people. With a 3D printer, people may even make models of sunken ships.Maybe most exciting, these fish can swim among real fish. With cameras, we can learn more about real fish behavior, such as how small fish swim together to avoid other big animals. If bionic fish are good at mixing in, we may also learn how other fish live in the ocean!16．What do we know about the “whale shark”?A．It moves just like a real shark.B．It is larger than a real shark.C．It was made to surprise visitors.D．It swims faster than a real shark. 17．What does the underlined word “dive” mean in Chinese?A．潜水B．捕食C．跳跃D．呼吸18．Bionic fish can be used in military areas because ________.① they are cheaper and better than anti-submarine tools① they make big noises in order to scare submarines① submarines can’t easily find them① they can avoid submarine attacksA．①①B．①①C．①①D．①①19．How can bionic fish help with rescues?A．They can bring things back from sunken ships.B．They can collect information of sunken ships for people.C．They can find where the sunken ships are.D．They can make models of a 3D printer.20．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The influence of bionic fish on humans.B．Sending bionic fish to school.C．The ways of creating bionic fish.D．Using bionic fish to study fish.二、阅读还原6选5阅读短文，从短文下面六个句子中选择五个还原到短文中，使短文通顺完整、衔接自然。

Nobody wants one shoulder to be lower than the other, and paining（疼痛）too. In India, most of us would look at the reduction（减少）of textbooks as a way out. But in a country like America, there are always more choices. A company called goReader has created a "school bag" which is the size of a laptop computer（笔记本电脑）, weighing about 2.5 kg. The goReader has a color screen and can "hold" all the textbooks that a student may need, says a report in 'The Asian Age' newspaper.The company plans to work closely with the publishers（出版商） of textbooks so that these books can be supplied on the Internet. All the students will have to do is to download（下载） their textbooks. Making notes and marking important parts of a lesson can be done just as lots of students have done on their textbooks before.At present, the plan is being tested out in a university. Richard Katzmann, the owner of the company is having his creation tested at Chicago's DePaul University, where he studied.

Instead, sport hosts will give the full Chinese name when they refer to the NBA – National Ba sketball Association. You also won’t hear any other English abbreviations（缩写式）on CCTV’s Chinese programs, such as GDP (gross domestic product) or WTO (World Trade Organization). You will hear their Chinese translations.CCTV received a notice from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, telling it to avoid using English-language abbreviations in their reports to protect the “purity” of the Chinese language. A few other TV stations also received the notice.Fu Zhenguo, an editor of People’s Daily, is one of the people who proposed （提议）the change. “Using English in a Chinese-speaking environment is against Chinese law,” he said. “Using English on Chinese TV programs is unfair to people who don’t understand English. It will have a bad language influence on kids and teenagers.”But some experts have a different opinion. Liu Yaoying, a professor at the Communications University of China, said the move shows cultural conservatism （保守主义）. “If Western countries can accept some Chinglish（中国式英语）words, why can’t the Chinese language be mixed with English?” Liu said.A lot of people have criticized the move, saying that it will cause problems for them.“I understand what CD, VCD and DVD mean when I hear them. But I won’t know what the TV programs are talking about if I hear those products’ full Chinese names,” a person wrote in a BBS post. Following the same post, another person wrote jokingly: “I’m not listening to my MP3 now. I’m listening to my Moving Picture Experts Group-1 Audio Layer 3.Some people also question why CCTV is keeping its logo, since it is also an English abbreviation.21．We can’t hear the English abbreviations from this month because___________.A． no one can say the abbreviationsB． the abbreviations are uselessC． Chinese translations are easier to be understood.D． the purity of Chinese should be protected22． Which of the following is an abbreviation of an organization?A． DVD B． WTO C． GDP D． VCD 23．What is the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “criticized”?A．阻止B．赞同C．表扬D．批评24．From the passage, we know that.A． Not all the people are satisfied with the move.B． All the people are pleased with the move.C． CCTV has given up its logo.D．The Chinese language can’t be mixed with English .25． The seventh paragraph showsA． a bad language influe nce on kids and teenagersB． it is unfair for our Chinese to use English abbreviations.C． problems caused by not using the English abbreviationsD． cultural conservatismMy teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. In this way he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and asked God for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked up（哽咽）and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son, but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school andnothing has worked. It’s out of my hands. ” For a moment there was silence on the other and of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he was even on the list of the best students at school. In his fourth year, I attended a parent –– teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”26． Which of the following has the similar meaning as the underlined word “withdrawn” in the first paragraph?A． Quiet and lonelyB． Relaxed and excitedC． Talkative and livelyD． Happy and easy-going27．According to the first report card, Karl ___________.A． often went to school lateB． failed in all the examsC． did a good job at schoolD．didn’t do well at school28．When the mother said “It’s out of my hands.” to the headmaster, she meant that she ___________.A．didn’t know what to do about her sonB． would drive her son away from the houseC． had no money to support the familyD． she would have to hang up29．Who was it that telephoned Karl’s mother that day?A． The headmaster.B． The school adviser.C． Karl himself.D． The passage doesn’t tell us.30． From the passage we can learn that _____________.A． children in single – parent families always have mental problems B．mother’s love plays an important role in teenagers’ lifeC． parents should give their children as much help as possibleD． school education still works well without support from parent三、根据句意填空综合填空阅读短文，根据短文内容及首字母提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单词。

The first chocolate was eaten by people in South America hundreds years ago. In those days, the people didn’t really eat chocolate. They used thecoca bean( 可可豆 ) to make a chocolate drink and they enjoyed it very much. Many years later, the coca bean was brought to other countries and people came to love the taste of chocolate.In 1824, John Cadbury opened a small shop in British. One of the things he sold was chocolate drink. In 1831, he opened a factory to make chocolate drink. He wanted to encourage people to drink chocolate instead of other drinks.A few years later, a man called Joseph Fry found a way to make chocolate bars( 条状巧克力 ), and so for the first time people had the chance to eat chocolate instead ofonly drinking it. But at that time chocolate was very expensive and only the rich people could buy it. Later, as more and more chocolate bars were produced and sold, it became cheaper.However, at first only plain chocolate (a kind of chocolate without milk and with very little sugar) was produced and sold. Milk chocolate came later andthis was made by adding milk to the chocolate. The first milk chocolate barwas made in Cadbury’s factory in 1897. Their most famous chocolate,Cadbury’s Milk Bar, was made in 1905. It has been the most popular chocolatein Britain and around the world for over 100 years. The Cadbury factory isstill in Britain and the chocolate produced there is eaten all over the world. Every year, thousands of visitors visit the factory in order to see how chocolate is made.1.

My favourite great book is The adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St. Petersburg, Missouri. He’s a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many excitingadventures( 冒险 ). He runs away with his friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days. With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he gets lost in a cave and finally theyfind a box of gold.My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinksTom is dead. He decides to go to his town funeral. He hides and watches for a time and then suddenly he appears. Everyone is surprised to see him but they’re also pleased to see him alive.Tom is the hero of the story, but there are another important characters. Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him . Becky is pretty with fair hair, Joe is Tom’s best friend and Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.The theme of the story is about children growing up. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom, social rules and how people are punished( 惩罚 )for bad behavior.Why do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876, but it’s still read and loved by people all over the world today. And although it’s only a story. Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19 th century, so it sounds veryreal. Today it’s thought to be one of the greatest books in Americanliterature. Go on--read it! I know you’ll enjoy it, too.1. Where does Tom run away with his friends?A . To a quiet street.B . To a small town.C . To an island. ________D . To a forest.2.
