the Internet and other new technology,there is no longer any need for school buildings,classes or teachers.Perhaps this will be true one day,but if the world has no schools,I can’t imagine how our society will be,In fact,we should learn how to use new technology to make schools better.We should invent a new kind of school that is linked to libraries,museums,science centers,labs and even companies.Technological companies should create(创造)learning programs for schools.Scientists or professors could give talks through the networks and local stations could develop programs about things students are actually studying in bs could set up websites to show new technology so students could see it on the Internet.Is this a dream?No.There are already many cities where this is beginning to happen.Here the whole city is linked to the Internet,and learning can take place at home,at school,and in the office.Businesses provide programs for the schools and the society.The schools provide computer labs for people without their own computers at home.Because everyone can be on the Internet, older people use it as much as younger ones.And everyone can visit distant(远处的)libraries and museums as easily as nearby ones.How will this new kind of school change the usual way of learning?It is too early to be sure,but it is very exciting to think about it.Technology will change the way we learn; schools will change as well;and we will all learn something from the Internet.36.In the writer’s opinion,.A.more schools should be builtB.schools are necessaryC.schools are not necessaryD.there should be fewer schools37.What does“a new kind of school”mean?A.A newly built school.B.There are many new students in the school.C.There are many new teachers in the school.D.A

passage?A.InternetB.SchoolC.New TechnologyD.will Technology Take the Place of Schools?B“Depend on yourself”is what nature says to every man.Parents can help you.Teachers can help you.Others still can help you.But all these only help you to help yourself.There have been many great men in history.But many of them were very poor in childhood,and had no uncles,aunts or friends to help them.They could’t epend on them for education.They saw it was,and began to work with their efforts(努力).To know something,they worked their own way up to fame(荣誉).One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupil,“I can’t make worthy men of you,but I can help you make men of yourselves.”Some young men are the best in anything,and they are so be pitied(值得同情的).They can never do things successfully if they don’t see their weak points and change their courses(做法).They are nothing now,and will be nothing as long as they live if they don’t follow the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on their own efforts.41.“Depend on yourself”in this passage means.A.depend on your own effortsB.depend on natureC.wait for others to helpD.depend on your parents42.Many of the

were poor when they were youngD.we can’t depend on our parents or teachers,but we can get advice fromthemCLast week I was in the boarding area of the airport,very excited about my trip home to see my parents.I had many plans for the weekend.But my daydream was interrupted by an elderly woman talking loudly into her cell phone.She kept asking the person to meet her where she was and was repeating the gate number into the phone.With each repeat she got a little louder.All the people around were trying to avoid laughing.Then I heard her say,“I’m sorry,I can’t hear you.There seems to be something wrong with my hearing aid.”As I waited for my turn to board,I noticed her tone was becoming increasingly frantic(狂躁的)as she tried to understand the person on the other end of the phone.It was almost my turn to board.I couldn’t stop looking back at the woman. It made me think how lucky I was to have my hearing.Then I realized I could do something to help.I walked over to the woman and shouted,“Let me help you hear.I’ll tell you what the person is saying.”The doubt that flickered(闪烁)across her face was quickly replaced with understanding,then relief（欣慰）.I took the phone from her,listen for a moment,and then told the woman that her husband was waiting for her in the baggage area as he could not enter the gate area.Then I pointed her in the right direction.It took me less than two minutes to help the woman,but my pride in having been able to help her remains strong.46.When the writer met the woman,he was.A.having a rest on the planeB.waiting for someone in the airportC.on a trip to visit his familyD.calling his family on the phone47.The woman spoke loudly and repeatedly on her cellphone because.A.there was too much noise in the airport.B.she did not have a good hearingC.she wasn’t wearing her hearing aidD.the person on the other end of the phone spoke in a low voice48.When the author offered to help the woman,her first reaction was oneof.A.joyB.thanksC.doubtD.anger2018年初中调研考试英语试卷第5页共8页49.What can we learn from the text?A.The people around were angry at the woman’s loud voice.B.The author became angry because his daydream was interrupted.C.The woman was going to spend her holiday with her husband.D.The woman and her husband were probably separated in the crowd.50.What is the best title for the text?A.The Noise AirportB.I Can’t Hear YouC.My First Flight On a PlaneD.The Woman in the Baggage AreaDRecently,a scientist did some experiments.He left a group of4-year-old children in a room with a bell and a candy.If they rang the bell,he would come back and they could eat the candy.If,however,they didn’t ring the bell and waited for him to come back on his own,they could then have two candies.In videos of the experiment,he can see the children kicking,hiding their eyes-trying to exercise self-control so they can wait and get two candies.The results are different.Some broke down and rang the bell within a minute, others lasted15minutes.The children who waited longer went on to get higher SAT scores.They got into better colleges and had better adult success．The children who rang the bell quickest were more likely to（有可能）have received worse teacher and parental evaluations（评价）10years later and were more likely to have drug problems at age32.The experiments are worth noticing because people spend a lot of time thinking about how to improve education,how to become rich.But when the result is not good,they will come back to ask“how do we get people to get the sort of self-control that causes success?”This is to enter the world of human nature.So these experiments along with everyday experience tell us that self-control is the most important.Young people who can sit through sometimes boring classes to get a degree can work hard in order to learn a language well.They can avoid drugs and alcohol．For people without self-control skills,however, school is a series of failed ordeals(煎熬).No wonder they leave schools and their later life is a group of foolish ideas,such as drug use,stealing and so on.51.The scientist did some experiments to.A.find good ways of training children to learnB.test children’s intelligence（智力）of ringing the bellC.test children’s self-control and later successD.prove that children’s education is important52.We can learn from the experiment that.A.the children have different self-controlB.some children didn’t get any candy in the endC.all the children tried to ring the bell for more candiesD.the last one to ring the bell is the most successful53.What will those without self-control do at school according to the text?A.Improving their education.B.Becoming very rich and successful.C.Working hard to catch up with others.D.Suffering a lot from boring lessons.2018年初中调研考试英语试卷第6页共8页EBamboo is one of the nature’s most surprising plants.Many people call this plant a tree,but it is a kind of grass.Like other kinds of grass,a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly.A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5meters in24hours!Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe.There are more than1,000kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains(平原).Not all bamboo looks the same.Some bamboo plants are very thin.They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than30 centimeters across.This plant also comes in different colors,from yellow to black to green.Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years.They often use bamboo for building new buildings.As a matter of fact,the cables(绳索)that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo.The bridge has been in use for more than1,000years,and is still holding strong.In Africa,engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money,and their fields often die from no rain and no water.It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use.Bamboo pipes and drills(钻)can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered.54.From the text we know.A.most people call bamboo plant treesB.a bamboo plant may grow4.5meters in three daysC.the bamboo plant changes its colors when it growsD.a bridge held by bamboo cable was built thousands of years ago55.Which of the following is NOT true?A.There are many different kinds of bamboo with different colors.B.Cables made of bamboo can last for over a thousand years.C.Bamboo can be used for buildings,bridges and watering projects(工程).D.Bamboo plants are able to grow well in any part of the world.四、七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
