1As large parts of the Amazon burn, weather experts are warning that rainfall is unlikely to put out the fires in the coming weeks. The Amazon is the world's largest rainforest. Brazil's National Space Research Institute reports that the number of fires has risen by 85 percent to more than 77,000 in the past year. That is the most since the research center began keeping records in 2013. The fires are not limited to Brazil. At least 10,000 square kilometers of land are burning in Bolivia, near its border with Brazil and Paraguay.Brazil's government has sent troops and military airplanes as part of firefighting efforts. But they will only be able to put out smaller fires and help to prevent new fires, experts say. The larger fires can only be put out by heavy rain.The rainy season in the Amazon usually begins in late September. It takes weeks to build to widespread heavy rains throughout the area. The little rain that will fall in the next 15 days will be in areas that need it the least, says Maria Silva Dias. She is a professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Sao Paulo. "The whole area needs it to rain more...and this will only happen around October," she said.Heavy rain has to fall in a short enough period to put out a fire. If there is little rainfall, the water changes from a liquid to a gas and rises in the air, Dias explained. She said it would take at least 20 millimeters of rain within 1 to 2 hours to put out a forest fire, with more required for the larger ones.1 . Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?A It is lucky that Amazon fires are just limited to Brazil.B Troops and military airplanes will put out most of Amazon fires.C There are big fires in large parts of the world's largest rainforest.D The number of Amazon fires has risen by 65 percent in the past year.2 . What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A The little rain will put out Amazon fires.B It takes months to build to widespread heavy rains.C Heavy rain around October may put out Amazon fires.D The rainy season in the Amazon will begin in early September.3 . According to the passage, __________ will completely put out a forest fire.A troops and military airplanesB little rain in a long enough periodC less than 20 millimeters of rain within 3 to 4 hoursD more than 20 millimeters of rain within 1 to 2 hours4 . The article mainly tells us _________.A how rain put out Amazon firesB there are many fires in AmazonC the rainy season in Amazon is comingD the rain will not put out Amazon fires for weeks CCDD2The American space agency NASA recently marked the 50th anniversary of the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing. For some people, the celebrations were a reminder that NASA is not currently sending astronauts into space from the United States. NASA aims to change that soon.NASA’s plans are taking shape in places like Huntsville, Alabama. That is where you will find NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. Inside, engineers and other experts are working on building and testing a new Space Launch System, or SLS.Jody Singer is the center’s director. “The Space Launch System is the only rocket capable of sending a fully equipped Orion, the astronauts, the supplies and the systems to the moon in one launch, and taking us deep into space,” Singer said. The Orion is one of NASA’s spacecraft. Mike Nichols is a lead testing engineer at the center. He has worked with NASA for over 20 years. On one recent day, he spoke with VOA about testing a new liquid hydrogen tank. Nichols said, “In order to prove that it’s strong enough to survive launch, they build this structural test article and send it t o us, then we install it in the test end.”NASA’s new moon program is called “Artemis.” The first mission is set for next year, without a crew. Artemis 2 plans to send astronauts around the moon in 2022. Artemis 3 is expected to touch down on the moon’s so uth pole in 2024.1 . The first paragraph is written to ___________.A introduce the topic to the readersB tell how NASA works on testing SLSC tell how NASA celebrated the 50th anniversaryD introduce NASA to the readers2 . Which of the following is NOT true about NASA’s new moon program “Artemis”?A There will be three missions by 2024.B Artemis plans to send an astronaut to the moon.C Artemis 2 is going to send astronauts around the moon in 2022.D Artemis 3 is expected to touch down on the moon’s south pole in 2024.3 . The Space Launch System will NOT send _______ to the moon in one lunch.A astronautsB suppliesC a spacecraftD goods4 . What is the main idea of the passage?A NASA is preparing a new Space Launch System.B NASA is about to send the supplies and the systems to the moon.C NASA is going to return to the moon.D NASA celebrates the 50th anniversary of the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing. ABDC3On July 4, America’s Independence Day, U.S. President Donald Trump asked more Americans to join the military. “To young Americans across our country, now is your chance to join our military and make a truly great statement in life, and you should do it,” Trump said in his speech at the Lincoln Memorial.The next day, Trump spoke to reporters outside the White House. He said he believed his statement would increase the number of young people joining the military. “Based on that, we’re going to have a lot of people joining our military,” he said.However, a 2016 Department of Defense report found that nearly 75 percent of young Americans are unable to serve in the military. The biggest problem is about 31 percent of young American are overweight. Other problems are lack of education, criminal history and drug use.By age two, 14 percent of American children are already fat. That percentage increases as children get older. In the 16-19 age group, 42 percent of Americans are overweight. Nearly 70 percent of overweight teens become overweight or fat adults. The problem is very serious in southern states, like Georgia and Alabama. These states provide a large number of military recruits, but also have some of the highest levels of fatness in the country.What’s worse, the number of young Americans interested in military careers is decreasing, the report found. This is partly the result of a strong national economy. There are many job opportunities for young people and that makes military careers seem less attractive, retired Army Major General Allen Youngman said.1 . Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A Nearly 14 percent of American adults are overweight.B Trump encouraged more Americans to join the military.C More and more American young people want to join the military.D Northern states have the highest levels of fatness in America.2 . According to the passage, which is NOT the reason why young Americans cannot join the military?A Lack of education.B Criminal history.C Playing computer games.D Overweight or fatness.3 . The underlined “that” in the last paragraph probably refers to ________.A many job opportunitiesB the weak national economyC Americans’ interest in milit ary careersD overweight or fat Americans4 . Whhat is the main idea for the passage?A More young Americans are interested in military careers.B More young Americans can’t join the military.C More young Americans are getting overweight.D America has a much stronger national economy.BCAB4Eating a diet of French fries, Pringles and white bread was enough to make one teenage boy lose his sight, according to a case study published in a medical journal. Scientists from the University of Bristol examined the case of a young patient whose extremely picky eating led to blindness, and have warned of the dangers of a poor diet.The boy patient told doctors he had only eaten fries from the fish and chip shop, Pringles potato chips, white bread, slices of processed ham and sausage since primary school. He first visited a doctor at age 14, complaining of tiredness. He wasn’t taking any medicine, had a normal BMI and height, and showed no visible signs of malnutrition. Doctors discovered low vitamin B12 levels and anemia, treating the patient with vitamin B12 injections and advising him to have a healthy diet.One year later there were signs of hearing loss and decreased vision symptoms, but doctors did not find the cause. The patient’s extreme diet led to nutritional optic neuropathy. He couldn’t see by 17 years of age, and doctors found vitamin B12 deficiency, low copper and selenium levels, a high zinc level, reduced vitamin D level and bone level density, according to a statement from the University of Bristol. By this stage, vision damage could not be recovered.Researchers from Bristol Medical School and the Bristol Eye Hospital examined the case and concluded that the patient suffered nutritional optic neuropathy. In developed countries it is rarely caused entirely by poor diet because food is easy to get.1 . The boy patient would not eat _________ according to the passage.A French friesB Pringles potato chipsC a lot of vegetablesD slices of processed ham2 . What did the doctor find when the boy first went to see a doctor? ①A normal BMI and height. ②Low copper and selenium levels. ③Low vitamin B12 levels and anemia. ④No visible signs of malnutrition.A ①②③B ①③④C ②③④D ①②④3 . When did the boy completely lose his sight?A At the age of 14.B At the age of 15.C At the age of 16.D At the age of 17.4 . The passage mainly tells us that __________.A a boy suffered nutritional optic neuropathyB a boy only ate Pringles, white bread and French fries since primary schoolC nutritional optic neuropathy is rarely caused entirely by poor diet indeveloped countriesD a boy became blind after only eating Pringles, white bread and French friesfor many yearsCBDD5Late blight is a common disease of plants such as tomatoes and potatoes, capable of wiping out entire crops on commercial-scale fields. Caused by a fungus-like pathogen, it first appears as black or brown lesions on leaves, stems, fruit or tubers. If conditions are favorable, it can quickly spread to other plants through wet soil and as wind-scattered spores.In the mid-nineteenth century, late blight famously caused the Irish potato famine. Today it still causes more than 6.7 billion dollars in annual losses worldwide. Small farms and organic growers are often the hardest hit, because they have fewer resources to identify and treat the disease.But farmers may have a new weapon to add to the arsenal. The technology, designed by researchers at North Carolina State University, relies on the science of subtle plant odors, and it can recognize sick plants early by employing a simple test strip that plugs into a reader on a smartphone.Plants emit signaling chemicals from their leaves, not unlike the pheromones released by humans. “If a plant is diseased, the type and concentration of these volatile organic compounds changes,” said Qingshan Wei, a biomolecular engineer at NC State University. By sampling a plant’s emission profile, a fa rmer can assess whether or not a sample of his crop is infected, Dr. Wei said.The research group also hopes to custom-make the technology for other crop pathogens, which continue to emerge as climate change and global trade increase the stress on agricul tural systems. “This is an important step in improving global food security,” Dr. Wei said.1 . According to the passage, late blight _______.A first appears as white or red lesions on leaves, stems, fruit or tubersB never spreads to other plants through wet soil and as wind-scattered sporesC famously caused the Irish potato famine in the mid-nineteenth centuryD still causes more than 6.7 billion dollars losses every month in the world2 . Which opinion might not Dr. Wei agree with?A The type and concentration of volatile organic compounds never changes.B Plants give out signaling chemicals from their leaves.C A farmer can assess whether or not a sample of his crop is infected with thetechnology.D The technology for crop pathogens is an important step in improving globalfood security.3 . The underlined phrase “a new weapon” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________ .A the diseaseB the technologyC the smartphoneD the research team4 . What’s the b est title of the passage?A A biomolecular engineer at NC State UniversityB A common disease of plantsC An Irish potato famine caused by late blightD A new way to fight crop disease with a smartphoneCABD6International health officials say two experimental drugs used to treat Ebola infections appear to be saving lives in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Dr. Anthony Fauci of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) called the early results “some very good news”. H e said the new drugs may be able to improve the survival of people with Ebola. The NIH helped support the research.The findings come from a study of four different drugs that started in November of last year. But an independent monitoring group recommended last week that all new patients should receive either of the two drugs that showed the best results.____________________The research was designed to test the effectiveness of the drugs on as many as 725 people infected with the Ebola virus in North Kivu and Ituri provinces. An outbreak of Ebola in those parts of the DRC has killed more than 1,800 people since August 2018. The recent study found that less than one-third of patients who were infected died when they took the two new drugs. Those patients who had low levels of the virus in their blood had even better results.Dr. Ryan of the WHO said he hoped the results would persuade more patients to seek care as soon as symptoms appear. “Getting people into care more quickly is absolutely vital,” he said. However, treating the disease is becoming more difficult because the affected areas of the eastern DRC face ethnic conflict.Jean-Jacques Muyembe, director general of the National Institute of Biomedical Research in DRC, helped lead the study. He said, “From now on, we will no longer say that Ebola is incurable.”1 . According to Dr. Ryan, we can know ________. ① Ebola is not incurable ② that some affected areas facing ethnic conflict made treating Ebola more tough ③ patients should seek care as soon as symptoms appear ④ Ebola has killed more than 1,800 people since August 2018A ①②B ②④C ③④D ②③2 . Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank in Paragraph 3?A When were the drugs tested?B Why were the drugs tested?C How were the drugs tested?D Who were the drugs tested by?3 . According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A The drugs were tested on less than 525 people infected with the Ebola virus.B Dr. Anthony Fauci thinks the new drugs may help more people with Ebolasurvive.C One-third of patients who were infected died when they took the two newdrugs.D Patients who had low levels of the virus in their blood had even worseresults.4 . What’s the purpose of the passage?A To tell us that Ebola has killed so many people in DRC.B To introduce two experimental drugs that are effective against Ebola virus.C To introduce a doctor from the U.S. National Institutes of Health.D To tell us that International health officials have done much about Ebola. DCBB7The world's oceans will likely lose about one-sixth of their fish and other creatures within 100 years if climate change continues on its current path. These are the findings of a wide-reaching, computer-based study by an international team of marine biologists.Every degree Celsius that the world's oceans warm, their biomass —or the total weight of all the marine animal life — is expected to drop five percent, the study also found. The study predicts that if there is no change in the rate of worldwide greenhouse gas production, there will be a 17-percent loss of biomass by the year 2100. But, if the world reduces carbon pollution, biomass losses could be limited to only about 5 percent.William Cheung is a marine ecologist at the University of British Columbia in Canada. He co-wrote the study, and told the Associated Press, "There are already changes that have been observed." Warming temperatures are the biggest issue, Cheung said. But climate change also produces oceans that are more acidic and have less oxygen. This also harms sea life.Marine biologist Boris Worm, who helped run the study, added that the building blocks of marine life —plankton and bacteria —may decline less heavily. Those marine animals that we use directly, and care about most deeply, are predicted to suffer the most, said Worm. He works at Canada's Dalehousie University. University of Victoria biology professor Julia Baum was not part of the study, but she said the findings make sense. She noted that the possible effects of the predicted losses of animal life are huge.1 . Which of the following may the international team of marine biologists disagree?A The possible effects of the predicted losses of animal life are huge.B Those marine animals that we use directly are predicted to suffer the least.C The world's oceans will likely lose about one-sixth biomass within 100 years.D Climate change also produces oceans that are more acidic and have lessoxygen.2 . What can we learn from the second and third paragraph?A William Cheung says greenhouse gas production is the biggest issue.B If the world reduces carbon pollution, biomass losses will be 17 percent by2100.C The building blocks of marine life — plankton and bacteria may increaseheavily.D Every degree Celsius the world's oceans warm, the biomass is expected todrop five percent.3 . The underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refers to _______.A climate changeB plankton and bacteriaC warming temperatureD more acidic and less oxygen4 . The passage mainly tells us ______.A ocean warming may greatly reduce sea lifeB marine biologist Boris Worm helped run the studyC much of the world depends on the oceans for food or workD biology professor Julia Baum said the findings make senseBDDA8Dehydration is a drag on human performance. It can cause tiredness and weaken the endurance among athletes, according to a 2018 study in the journal Frontiers in Physiology. Even mild dehydration can affect a person’s mood or ability to concentrate.Water is cheap and healthy. And drinking water is an effective way for most people to stay hydrated. The National Academy of Medicine recommends that adult women and men drink at least 91 and 125 ounces of water a day, respectively. But large quantities of water in the morning, at noon and night may not be the best or most efficient way to meet the body’s hydration requirements.“If you’re drinking water and then, within two hours, your urine output is really high and your urine is clear, which means the water is not staying in well,” says David Nieman, a professor of public health at Appalachian State University and director of the Human Performance Lab at the North Carolina Research Campus.Drinking water before or during a meal or snack is a good way to hydrate. “Drinking water with amino acids or fats or vitamins or minerals helps the body take up more of the water, ” he says. Some of his own research has found that eating a banana is better than drinking sports drinks when it comes to post-exercise recovery.For those hoping to stay optimally hydrated, drinking slowly and steadily and mixing water with a little food is a more effective method than knocking back full glasses of water betwe en meals. “Water is good for you, but you can drown in it too,” Nieman says.1 . In the first paragraph, dehydration is mentioned ________.A to support his viewB to advertise sports drinksC to introduce the topicD to explain why dehydration is bad2 . Lucy’s mother should drink at least _________ ounces of water every day.A 125 ouncesB 34 ouncesC 91 ouncesD 152 ounces3 . According to the passage, _________ is a better way to stay hydrated.A drinking full glasses of water between mealsB drinking little waterC drinking slowly and steadily and mixing water with a little foodD drinking lots of sports drinks4 . What’s the best title of the passage?A The definition of dehydration.B The reason of drinking water.C The better way of drinking water.D The importance of drinking water.CCCC9Do you have pounds to lose but don't have a weight loss plan? To get started on your weight loss journey, Mascha Davis, a registered dietitian and national spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, recommends looking at three areas of your lifestyle that might require changes: food, exercise and sleep.About the diet, you might start eating more vegetables and drinking more water. Being more physically active might involve simply getting up every hour if you have a desk job, taking the stairs instead of the lift and parking your car farther from your office.Going to the gym regularly is helpful, but don't expect it to make up for those morning doughnuts. Generally speaking, the amount of exercise required to make up for high calorie foods is huge, just thinking of walking fast for nearly two hours to burn off a 500-calorie piece of cake, which explains why diet is generally more important than exercise for weight loss.Since sleep influences the feeling of hunger and fullness, getting enough sleep is another lifestyle factor that can make or break your weight loss efforts. "Sleep is necessary for weight loss," Davis said. "I have clients who are doing all these great things with their eating habits and going to the gym, but they don't realize that a lack of sleep is really destroying their goals."If you're always tired and drinking coffee all day, you may need to make some changes. "Most adults need seven to eight hours of sleep and some need as many as nine. A lot of people are in short of sleep — but the less sleep you get, the higher your weight might be," Davis said.1 . According to Davis, which of the following is NOT the area of your lifestyle requiring changes?A Food.B Sleep.C Exercise.D Job.2 . The underlined word “doughnuts” in Paragraph 4 might refer to ___________.A a kind of lifestyleB a kind of exercise formC a kind of high calorie foodD a kind of low calorie food3 . Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?A Sleep has nothing to do with weight loss.B Most adults need less than six hours of sleep every day.C Diet is generally more important than exercise for weight loss.D It is not necessary to get up every hour if you have a desk job.4 . What’s the best title of the passage?A Lifestyle changes, weight losses.B Going to the gym regularly is helpful.C Start eating more vegetables and drinking more water.D The less sleep you get, the higher your weight might be.

2022年中考英语+时文阅读训练2(word版无答案)

2022 年中考英语时文阅读训练2Because of a sudden rise of COVID-19 cases in several Chinese cities, the country is making five COVID-19 antigen test kits (抗原检测试剂盒) available for self-testing, All made by local companies, the kits can be bought in stores and online.Antigen tests are used to test for COVID-19. But they work differently from the nucleic acid tests (核酸检测) that we are all familiar with. “Antigen is like the ‘clothes’ of the virus, while nucleic acid is the gene (基因) of the virus,” said Zhang Wenhong, head of the infec tious disease department (感染科) at Fudan University’s Huashan Hospital.The antigen tests are beneficial because they produce results faster, in around 15 minutes, and don’t require a lab. People can use them in their own homes at their convenience.But the y aren’t as accurate . “In the early stage of infection, the amount of virus can be verylow,” Zhang said. “The nucleic acid test can detect it but an antigen test cannot.”According to the National Health Commission, three categories of people will be able to take an antigen test. They are people who have had a fever or respiratory symptoms (呼吸道症状) within five days, people undergoing centralized or home isolation (隔离), and other people who just want to take a test.People who test positive with the antigen kits will be treated as COVID-19 cases and must contact local authorities immediately, said the State Council. They will need to undergo centralized quarantine (隔离) and have regular nucleic acid tests, reported China Daily.At this time, China is sticking to its zero-COVID policy. With the Omicron variant producing more asymptomatic (无症状的) cases, it is hoped that the introduction of antigen tests will help authorities to find infected people more rapidly, said Zhang.1．Antigen test kits are available to ________.A．reduce test costs B．speed up testingC．make the test more comfortable D．make results more accurate2．In Paragraph 2, Zhang Wenhong explains ________.A．how the antigen test kits workB．what kind of people can use antigen test kitsC．the advantages and disadvantages of antigen testsD．the difference between antigen tests and nucleic acid tests3．Compared with nucleic acid tests, antigen tests ________.a. produce faster resultsb. should be done in a labc. can be done on one’s ownd. are more accurateA．ab B．ac C．bc D．cd 4．According to China Daily, ________.A．COVID-19 cases can only be confirmed by nucleic acid testsB．a positive result from an antigen test might not be COVID-19C．positive cases from antigen tests will receive proper treatmentD．the results of antigen kits are completely trusted5．What is the purpose of using the antigen tests?A．To avoid the spread of the virus.B．To study the Omicron variant.C．To develop more medical products.D．To recover China’s connection with the world.02A Pioneer for all PeopleThough he was one of China's most famous scientists, Yuan Longping considered himself a farmer, because he worked the land to do his research.Known as “Father of Hybrid Rice (杂交水稻)”, Dr Yuan graduated from Southwest Agricultural (农业的) College in 1953. From then on, finding ways to grow more rice was his life goal. As a young man, he saw the great need for increasing the rice production. At that time, hunger was a serious problem in many parts of the countryside. Dr Yuan searched for a way to get more rice with the same size of the fields. In 1974, he became an agricultural pioneer in the world to grow rice that has high production and that is called super hybrid rice. In the 1980s, he went around the world and gave advice about growing rice to farmers in other countries. In 2004, he won the World Food Prize for his work.Dr Yuan was quite satisfied with his life. He would much rather keep time for his hobbies. He enjoyed playing the violin, swimming and reading. Spending money on himself meant very little to him, so he gave millions of yuan to help some researchers with their research in farming.Long ago Dr Yuan had a dream about rice plants as tall as sorghum (高粱) . With his hard work, he grew the rice that could feed more people. President Xi Jinping praised him for his great contributions (贡献) to China's food safety and world corn development.Answer the questions according to the passage.

2019届中考英语阅读理解50篇（含答案）2019届中考英语阅读理解50篇(绝对精品训练题，接近实战考题，值得下载练习)1When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock（码头）, feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal.Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bu ry our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest.Bernie was my father’s idea o f a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to da ngle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.For many years, I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.Well, I’ve relearned it. I ho pe I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw t he rest away.1. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______.A. relaxedB. worriedC. hungryD. proud2. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon?A. They ate it in a polite way.B. They only ate its best part.C. They ate every part of it.D. They shared only one piece.3. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______.A. was just a rich businessmanB. worked hard all the timeC. lived a rich but healthy lifeD. knew how to make money4.

There are only a few men in all of history, who havechanged the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased only because someone sa id he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work.But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. He tried to understand them, and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them.Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure.Edison could not understand how anyone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. “Work,” he answered, “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.1.According to Thomas Edison, what’s genius?A.Hard thinking.B.Hard work./doc/4d11903132.html,eful dreams./doc/4d11903132.html,eful inventions.2.After exploring the secrets of nature, Edison always tried to .A.write down what he had learntB.carry out a new experimentC.make them useful in lifeD.share them with others3.Edison could not understand .A.how anybody enjoyed lifeB.how anybody loved workingC.why anybody loved thinkingD.why anybody was tired of life4.The last sentence in the passage means that .A.Edison was born to be a great inventorB.Edison was able to live another 100 yearsC.Edison was ready to make his 100 th inventionD.life was too short for Edison to work for human beings答案：BCDD9I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she’d said again, “it’s for Elizabeth. ”I never saw her get angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any wayshe chose that she did forgive(原谅) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even g ot to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.1. The writer began to love her mother’s desk ______.A. after Mother diedB. before she became a writerC. when she was a childD. when Mother gave it to her2. The passage shows that ______.A. mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughterB. mother was too serious about everything her daughter had doneC. mother cared much about her daughter in wordsD. mother wrote to her daughter in careful words3. The word “gulf” in the passage means ______.A. deep understanding between the old and the youngB. different ideas between the mother and the daughterC. free talks between mother and daughterD. part of the sea going far in land4. What did mother do wi th her daughter’s letter asking forgiveness?A. She had never received the letter.B. For years, she often talked about the letter.C. She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.D. She read the letter again and again till she died.5. What’s t he best title of the passage?A. My letter to MotherB. Mother and ChildrenC. My mother’s DeskD. Talks between Mother and Me答案：CABDC10A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin(顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, sir?” he asked.Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it did co st you nothing? Sir, I wish…” He hesitated(犹豫). Paul thought of course he knew what the boy wanted, but what the boy said surprised him greatly. “I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, and then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love to,” the boy answered.After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Sir, would you mind driving in front of my house?”Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in abig car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(残疾的) brother. He sat down on the step and pointed to the car.“There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…t hen you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.She hurried to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.“And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman.“My brother Andrew has something bad growing in side his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”“I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an opera tion. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”“How much do you have?” asked the man. “$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.“Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers.”He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor.

Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this ￥100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.Then he said, “I am g oing to give this ￥100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it now?” The hands went back into the air.“Well,” he said, “What if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled bill and said, “Who still wants it?” Hands went back into the air.“My friends,” he said, “you have learned a valua ble lesson today. No matter (无论) what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value (价值). It was still worth ￥l00!”Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen。

英语9年级-时文阅读2(含答案)

7A doctor is praising a Minnesota state police who stopped her for speeding, but gave her N95 masks instead of a ticket. Dr. Sarosh Ashraf Janjua thanked State Police Brian J Schwartz for his act of kindness during the coronavirus pandemic in a Facebook post.Dr. Janjua, a cardiologist working in the area, explained she was pulled over after driving over the speed limit. Police Schwartz told her it was irresponsible for her to be speeding because it would take up resources if she got into an accident and she would not be able to help her patients.She waited to be slapped with a ticket, but instead, he let her off with a warning — plus five medical masks. They came from a supply that the state had given him for his own protection, according to Janjua. "I burst into tears," she said. "And though it may just have been the cold wind, I think he teared up a little as well, before wishing me well and walking away."Like many of her fellow health care workers and first responders, Dr. Janjua said she had been feeling fear for not having enough protective equipment and worried about what would happen if she fell sick far from home."This complete stranger, who owed me nothing and is more on the front lines than I am, shared his valuable masks with me, without my even asking," she added.

ADCD8At some point in our lives during childhood, we have been told to “jump more” in order to grow taller. A couple in China encouraged their 12-year-old son to jump 1,000 times a day. They had also offered him 10 yuan for every 1,000 jumps he did. Why would any parent want their child to jump a thousand times every single day? This kid is 145cm, and the average height for kids of that age is 152cm. As typical Asian parents, they want him to grow taller and they also believed that jumping could help.The boy’s father gave him a jump rope and managed to convince him to start jumping. From that day on, he used the jump rope every day unless he fell sick, and he even jumped up to 3,000 times per day. After one whole year of jumping, the parents rewarded a total of 4,000 yuan. However, the boy not only did not grow taller, but he ended up being the shortest student in his class.It turns out that he had been spending the money that he earned on unhealthy snacks like potato chips! This explained the mystery where he often lost his appetite at the dinner table and the “unexplainable” weight gain. His parents thought he was going through a hard time with study, but he was actually just snacking endlessly.So, this is a clear example of how jumping rope does not help kids grow taller. Parents should really just accept that height is mainly affected by the parents’ genes, and also a healthy, balanced diet.1. Why did the parents ask their kid to do more rope jumping?A To build up his body.B To let his kids lose weight.C To let his kids grow taller.D To give him more pocket money.2. What surprised the parents?A Their kid almost jumped every day.B Their kid fell ill because of jumping rope.C Their kid became taller and taller.D Their kid became the shortest one in his class.3. Why did the boy eat less at the dinner table?A Because he ate too many snacks.B Because he didn’t like the food at home.C Because he wasn’t good at his study.D Because he got hurt while jumping rope.4. What can we learn from the passage?A Exercise is important in the childr en’s growth.B It’s not right to ask the kids to jump rope.C Parents’ traditional thought turns out to be not correct.D The height of children mainly depends on sleep and diet.CDAC9At just the age of seven, Mikail Akar is already a famous name in the art world. His paintings sell for thousands of dollars around the world, and he has another name “Preschool Picasso”.Mikail was born in Germany. His talent for painting was found by mistake three years ago. His parents bought him a canvas and some paint and let him get creative with them. They had already bought him plenty of toys and cars, so they thought they would give him something different, but they weren’t expecting him to paint a fantastic one. But Mikhail did such a good job with his first canvas that his father thought his wife painted it.Mikail Akar does well in abstract works and he can punch the canvas while he is wearing his father’s boxing gloves. “When I’m older, I want to be a football player,” Akar said. “Painting is quite tir ing for me. Sometimes it can take a long time, especially with boxing gloves.”Last month, during a presentation of Akar's new work at a personal gallery in Berlin, one visitor was very surprised to know that the artist was just a child in a primary school. His parents say that they are careful not to push Mikail too hard. He only paints when he wants to, sometimes once a week, other times once every month. His son’s success as a painter has changed their lives, and they now live for art. Akar’s paintings now are popular among buyers from across the world. One of the works sold for $12,000, and the money was given to a charity for children.1. Who found Mikail’s talent?A Mikail Akar himself.B Mikail’s parents.C Mikail’s art teacher.D A famous painter.2.

Lately, however, Valerie Xu has focused on face masks. The 15-year-old from Addison, Texas, says she wanted to do something about the lack of protective equipment for medical workers during the coronavirus pandemic(冠状病毒大流行). So with wisdom and a teenager’s good wish, Xu raised donations, bought more than 10,000 protective masks and delivered them to a Dallas medical center. And she’s gathering more.The idea of donation started with a conversation that Xu had with a family friend, a Florida ER doctor who was forced to wear the same protective mask for several days. “This really amazed me in America,” Xu said. “We’re supposed to be considered the richest country in the world, yet doctors and nurses fighting on the front line cannot get proper protection.”Since Xu wanted to make a local influence, she started a GoFundMe online to buy masks for the UT Southwestern Medical Center, the largest hospital near her home. Ithas raised more than $3,800. Xu researched vendors in China and picked two suppliers, donating $1,200 of her own money to the cause. She said her activity so far has collected a total of 11,200 masks. Xu has received grateful messages from medical workers and others.“If there is one thing that I have learned from this experience, it is that people care and are willing to help our community, which is the truth of our American spirit," she said.1. Recently Valerie Xu has cared about _______.A friendsB homeworkC charity workD personal life2. What surprised Valerie Xu?A A Dallas medical center lost lots of masks.B Her family friend didn’t have face masks in hospital.C Her community didn’t have enough face masks.D American medical workers were short of protective equipment.3.

What has Xu learned from the experience?A People only care about their own community.B God helps those who help themselves.C People care about and help each other when in need.D A man’s will does not depend on the number of his age.CDDC11A mum felt tired because she was the only one to clean up around the house. So she came up with a new game to keep her happy as she goes. She put money under the litter with tape around the house, including toilet rolls and pieces of paper on the floor.When the money wasn’t taken away, she added the prize money. She said that anyone who decided to lend a helping hand could get a small fortune. Unluckily for her family, they don’t join in the litter picking, leaving only their hard-working mum to take back her own money.The mum posted the idea to Facebook with a photo of the toilet roll. It was lying on the bathroom floor, and showed it was there for full seven days. She wrote online, "Needing something to inspire kids and husbands to tidy up around the house? Clearly this game hasn’t worked here yet, maybe one day. For now, I’ll keep raising the prize money, knowing it’s coming back."One said, "My kids would probably pick it up, take out the money, throw it back on the floor and forget about the whole thing." A second replied, "No one will pick them up even if it saves their life." Another mum has used a way to get her child to lend a hand with chores around the house. After she changed her laundry area, she left a large sign to everyone else living in the home that reads,"Put your laundry away, or I'll beat you. Love mum."1.

With no work or money during the lockdown(封锁), Paswan and his daughter were struggling to make ends meet.

2019中考英语阅读理解20篇(含答案)

2019中考英语阅读理解20篇(含答案)阅读理解着重测试学生理解性阅读的能力。

这种阅读要求考生掌握事实、了解细节，同时也要求考生领会深层含义、把握主旨。

1．快读全文，掌握大意阅读理解与完形填空题一样，属“语篇理解”题型，宜先通读全文，初步了解短文的整体框架、主旨大意及作者意向，以获取主要信息和各段中心内容。

2．细读题目，有的放矢细读文后的题目在于审读这些题目是针对什么设计的。

带着问题进行有目的地阅读，可以边阅读边选出考查表层情况试题的答案，从而提高效率。

3．再读全文，掌握细节在初读文章和了解题目要求后细读全文，可用铅笔做标记，把有关的人物、事件、时间、地点、起因划出来。

例如，凡逢人物就圈起来，看后一数，有几个圈就是几个人，一目了然。

经过这样的处理，对文章的内容和细节便会胸有成竹，对事态的发生、发展和解决有了更深入的理解。

4．试选答案，先易后难对那些深度理解的题目(多为主观判断题)，应在查阅短文、找出依据、仔细推敲后，再确定正误。

在选择答案时，有些选项干扰性很强，这时可以采用排除法进行选择；有一部分试题的答案在文中无法直接找到，而要求考生根据已有的常识结合文章来进行判断。

考生在推理时，切不要加入自己的主观印象或加入自己的情感。

在未完全读懂文章时不要匆忙选定答案，抓紧时间在尚未读懂的地方细读几遍，力争通过上下文的联系理解文章再选定答案。

5．复读全文．核对答案要用全文的主题思想核对各题，上下对照，研究其内在的联系和逻辑关系，并依次审核各道题目的答案。

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.

'"I won't do it wrong. I'll be really careful. I'll give you my apple." Tom gave him the brush and paint with a sad face, but in his heart he was glad.

2019中考英语阅读理解：政治、经济、文化类一、阅读理解Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren’t many hooks, few people learned to read.Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don’t think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two meters high!1．What does the writer do before he goes to sleep’?A. He reads books.B. He reads newspapersC. He looks through magazinesD. He looks at the posters on the wall.2．When was paper first created?A. About 2.000 years ago.B. In the 19th century.C. About 1.000 years ago.D.

2019中考英语阅读理解（编二）含答案【实战训练】 A（2019中考日常生活类训练）Dear Sunday Globe,I am writing to tell you about your article Smartphones Make Life Easier in last Sunday’s newspaper. You did an excellent job explaining the good points of smartphones, but you didn’t talk about their bad points at all. So, I hope you’ll let me give your readers some advice on smartphone etiquette (礼仪). The first point I’d like to address is loudness. When you talk on your smartphone in public, please don’t shout. In fact, the microphones in smartphones are very sensitive (灵敏的). So, you can be heard even if you speak quietly.Another point is about personal space. I don’t think it is polite to make calls in small spaces full of people. This makes others uncomfortable and forces them to listen to your personal business. What’s worse, it stops many face-to-face conversations from ever beginning.Lastly, doing two things at the same time is dangerous. For example, making calls while driving is a bad habit. Pay attention to the road! Similarly, when staying with your friends, turn off your smartphone and enjoy their company.Yours truly,Amber Jala1. Amber Jala wrote the letter to ________ .A. find a goodjobB. provide adviceC. make her lifeeasierD. buy a smartphone2. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. 致函 B. 称呼 C. 陈述 D. 选址3. According to Paragraph 3, what makes people around you uncomfortable?A. Discussingface-to-face.B. Speaking quietly on your phone.C. Minding your ownbusiness. D. Calling in small spaces full of people.4. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. It is dangerous to drive on the road.B. It is easy to start a company with others.C. It is bad to turn off our phones while driving.D. It is important to use our smartphones properly.参考答案1B 2C 3D 4D【实战训练】 B2016中考英语阅读理解分类练习：记叙文Would you like to visit Britain one day? Our country would like to welcomeyou! Overseas travel can be expensive. But there are ways of visiting Britain cheaply. We hope that we can give you some good ideas.When to come? If you can avoid (避免) the busy months—July and August ,your visit may be cheaper. There will be smaller numbers of visitors. British weather is pleasant from April to the end of September. Of course, you can visit it in winter, but it is often dark by 4 p. m. Many places, such as large houses and castles (城堡), are closed early in winter. However, if you are interested in museums, art galleries or theatres, winter may be a good time to visit.Be prepared. If you are a student, it’s a good idea to apply for (申请) an International Student Identity Card (身份证).With this card, you can save a lot of money. You can get the card from your local student travel office, and you can also call (44)-08708-413224 to get it.

Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited( 限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks.

语法填空国学故事——见贤思齐焉，见不贤而内自省也A阅读理解Weekends,air conditioners(空调),takeouts…are all common things for modern people.Have you ever wondered if ancient people enjoyed the same lifestyles?Let’s take a look.No weekendsIn ancient China,there were no weekends because people did not use a weekly calendar.But they could still relax after work.During the Han Dynasty(206BC-AD220),officials(官员)took one day off every five days. During the Tang Dynasty(618-907),officials worked for10days and rested for one day.They usually bathed and washed their hair on their day off,which was called xiumu(休沐).There were also many public holidays in ancient times,such as Spring Festival,winter solstice and Mid-Autumn Festival.People like farmers and businessmen usually worked most of the year,but even the most hard-working people would take a few days off during Spring Festival.Smart ways of staying coolIn modern times,we can enjoy cold drinks in air-conditioned rooms to stay cool.In ancient times,though people didn’t have these things,they had their own wisdom to get through the heated summer.As early as the Zhou Dynasty,there was a special department(部门)called the“ice administration”whose workers were responsible for collecting ice blocks(冰块)in winter and storing them in an icehouse.When summer came,people could take the ice blocks home and use them to make their rooms cooler.The ice could also be used to make cold drinks.The“bingjian(冰鉴)”was a type of ancient fridge.It was a big box made of ceramic(陶),wood or metal(金属)filled with ice.People would put drinks inside and close the lid(盖子),and the drinks would become colder over time.There was a kind of pillow made of porcelain(瓷器)that felt pleasantly cool.It is said that Emperor Qianlong (1711-99)of the Qing Dynasty liked these pillows.Ancient people also wove reeds(芦苇)or bamboo into bed mats (垫子)to sleep on.They’re still used today.Takeouts not a new thingWith a takeouts app,you can order any dishes you’d like to eat and they just come to your door within minutes.In fact,takeout is not a new thing.There was takeout as far back as the Song Dynasty(960-1279).According to history books,Emperor Xiaozong(1127-1194)liked to order takeout late at night.His servants would go around the city to pick up dishes and bring them back to the palace.Ordinary people also ordered takeout.Restaurant waiters would go out into the streets and yell(吆喝)out which dishes could be ordered that day.People would then place an ter,delivery(递送)workers would bring food to their homes.In the famous Song Dynasty painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival (《清明上河图》),a takeout worker can be seen on a delivery with food in hand.People at the time even had special meal boxes for takeout dishes.It was a long wooden box with several layers.They also used warming plates made of two layers of porcelain(瓷).Hot water could be put between them to keep dishes warm.1.Why were there no weekends in ancient times?A.Because ancient people were more hard-working than modern ones.B.Because ancient people didn’t use a weekly calendar.C.Because the emperors didn’t allow their people to have a rest.D.Because ancient people wanted to make more money.2.How many ways are mentioned to stay cool in ancient China in the passage?A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.3.How did people in ancient times keep takeout dishes warm?A.They put hot water between plates.B.They lit candles under the dishes.C.They covered the dishes with thick cloth.D.They walked fast to deliver(送)the dishes.4.According to the passage,which of the following is TRUE?A.In ancient China,people like farmers and businessmen worked all year round.B.Ancient people used bed mats made of silk to stay cool.C.Along the River During the Qingming Festival was painted in Song Dynasty.D.Modern people still have the same lifestyles as ancient people.5.Where can we read this passage probably?A.In a novel.B.In a science book.C.In a history magazine.D.In a cooking book.【答案】1.B 2.C 3.A 4.C 5.C【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍古代人的生活方式。

Edward Kennedy (爱德华·肯尼迪参议员), who owns three Portuguese water dogs himself.“We couldn‟t be happier to see the joy that Bo is bringing to Malia and Sasha,” Kennedy said in a statement. “We love our Portuguese water dogs and know that the girls—and their parents—will love theirs, too.”Why Bo?Malia and Sasha have named the dog Bo, after a cousin‟s cat and in honor of Michelle Obama‟s grandfather, who was nicknamed Diddley. The name for the dog was an apparent (明显的) reference (参考) to the singer “Bo” Diddley.White House aides (助手) told the AP (美联社) that the office of the first lady arranged an exclusive (排他的,独家的) deal (交易) on the dog story with the Washington Post (《华盛顿邮报》).That’s top secret!Before the official announcement, many websites were abuzz with* rumors (谣言，流言) of the first famil y‟s selection; one website even claimed it had pictures of the first pet. Hearing the rumors, Obama joked to reporters: “Oh, man, now, that‟s top secret.”“That was a campaign promise,” Obama said in a talk show last month. The president made a lot of promises during his election campaign, but none more important than (没有比…更重要的) this one to his young daughters; he vowed to buy them a dog, win or lose.Now, he has fulfilled the promise.*water dog: 会游水的狗, (俚语) 老练的水手be abuzz with 热烈…(讨论)（材料二）假期在即，手头却有数不清的作业？试试“留在家里的假期”吧！最美的风景就在身边！Getting Away by Staying HomeWhat will you be doing for the Labor Day holiday? For many, the extra days off provide an ideal opportunity to go and see new places. This is a great way to spend your vacation. However, more and more people are starting to take a “staycation.” That is, instead of traveling, many people are opting (选择) to stay at home and enjoy local recreational activities.Conveniently termed in 2003 as “staycation,”this modern word is shorthand(简略表达) for “st ay-at-home vacation.” Opting for a staycation during your break is a great way to save money because there are no lodging costs (住宿费用) and minimal travel expenses. In addition, it is a great way to take the time to connect with your community and support local businesses. By taking the time to explore and admire the beauty and fun in your immediate (附近的) environment, you can discover cool places that you never knew before. As a result, your experience as a “staycationer” will cause you to have a greater appreciation (了解，欣赏) for your local area.Another attractive reason for going with a staycation during your break owes to (归功于) the lack of stress. As a busy student, it is important to have some time to rest, clear your mind, and “breathe” a little. Traveling, however, is full of packing (整理行装), long-distance travel, waiting in long lines, and tiresome navigation through unfamiliar territory(地域). As a result, traveling “vacations”become another energy-drainer (耗费精力的), piling on (累积) stress during a time when you should be free from it.So, as you contemplate(计划) what you would like to do for the Labor Day holiday, consider a staycation to relax, save money, and refresh yourself! Make sure that you are not tempted to* work at home due to (由于) easy access to e-mail and related materials. Remind yourself that this is YOUR personal time and make the best of (充分利用) it by exploring Shanghai, meeting up with friends, and taking your mind off (忘却) your busy schedule.* be tempted to do sth. 某人被诱惑做某事(被动)（材料三）被功课压得喘不过气，因为父母吵架感到害怕，或是和好朋友吵架了……这些问题应该去和谁聊聊呢？Talk to Your School CounselorIf you study in America or other western countries, a school counselor (顾问，辅导员) plays a very important role in your life.Counselors help you cope*School counselors know how to listen and help. They‟ll take your problem seriously and work with you to find a good solution. A counselor can help you deal with sadness when someone has died, as well as advise you on taking the right classes to get into your dream college. Whatever problem you have, your counselor has seen it before — and has lots of good advice on how to help you work through it.Student-Counselor MeetingsCounselors meet with students individually or in small groups. The most common setting is a private meeting just between the student and the counselor. Most school counselors have their own offices where you can sit and talk.School counselors probably ask you to visit him or her even if you don‟t have a problem. This helps you feel comfortable with the counselor in case you ever need to meet in a time of crisis. It‟s usually easier to talk about a tough issue or a problem when you already feel comfortable with the counselor.Sometimes counselors also meet students in groups. Group meetings can really help people who are dealing with similar issues. In these group settings, people can share their feelings and learn coping skills. Not only do you get great ideas in a group, but it can also help to know that other students are going through the same thing.It‟s just not possible to sort* through tough times alone. Problems can build up and you may lose sleep, find you can‟t concentrate on(集中于) homework, or even become depressed(抑郁的，消沉的). When you need to talk to someone, your school counselor can be a great place to start.*cope 对付(困难)，竞争/抗衡/对抗词组：cope withsort 分类；整顿，整理；分选，拣(sort out)（材料四）奥巴马欧洲之行“小试牛刀”，抛出橄榄枝，改善美国形象。

Several days went by and a knock came on the man’s door.To his surprise,a color TV was sent to his home.A special note read:Thank you so much for helping me on the highway.Because of you,I was able to make it to my dying husband’s bedside just before he passed away.Help those who need help.You will never know what it will bring to them.1.What happened to the woman’s car?（根据短文内容回答问题）2.Who helped the woman?（根据短文内容回答问题）3.How did the woman thank the man?（根据短文内容回答问题）4.从文中找出与下面句子画线部分意思最接近的单词。

初三英语时文阅读：听音乐关乎智商

(材料一)喜欢听什么音乐可不仅关乎品味，还关乎智商!Music vs. IQ (精读课文)Is music enjoyed simply for being a nice little tune? No, there are things far more important than whether you actually like the song.For one thing, you must consider whether the band or artist you are listening to is currently fashionable. After all, you wouldn't want to look out of touch. What's more, you need to make sure your favourite music doesn't mark you out as "dumb." A recent survey shows some interesting relationships between music and IQ. Want to know what your music says about your intelligence? Here's a list.Super intelligentBeethoven - The German composer comes top of the list. Classical music is often associated with intelligence.Quite intelligentU2 - The Irish rock band is the choice for people of moderate intelligence, who enjoy politically charged songs like Sunday Bloody Sunday.AverageColdplay (酷玩乐队) - The indie band is for those not looking for anything out of the ordinary.A little dumbKayne West - Never top of the class at school? This Chicago rapper should be right up your street.Very dumbLil Wayne - The US rapper comes bottom of the survey for intelligence, but still sells millions of records around the world. How come?This is the website for more details: http://musicthatmakesyoudumb.virgil.gr/. The results have already stirred much debate. Of course, to describe someone's music taste as dumb is to insult them. Anyway, don't take this survey too seriously. Enjoy any music you like!。
