dirt﹣poor farmer,left school early and went to work in a factory,for education was for the rich then.So,the world became his school.With great interest,he read everything he could lay his hands on,listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown."There's so much to learn."he'd say."Though we' re born stupid,only the stupid remain that way."He was determined that none of his children would be denied an education.Thus,Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day.Though,as children,we thought this was crazy,it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request.And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned.We would talk about the news of the day;no matter how insignificant,it was never taken lightly.Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment,always to the point.Then came the moment﹣the time to share the day's new learning.Papa,at the head of the table,would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine,ready to listen."Felice,"he'd say,"tell me what you learned today"."I learned that the population of Nepal is .."Silence.Papa was thinking about what was said,as if the salvation of the world would depend upon it."The population of Nepal.Hmm.Well…"he'd say."Get the map,and let's see where Nepal is."And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn.Dinner endedonly after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.As children,we thought very little about these educational wonders.Our family,however,was growing together,sharing experiences and participating in one another's education.And by looking at us,listening to us,respecting our input,affirming our value,giving us a sense of dignity,Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.Later during my training as a future teacher,I studied with some of the most famous educators.They were imparting what Papa had known all along﹣the value of continual learning.His technique has served me well all my life.Not a single day has been wasted,though I can never tell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.(1)What do we know from the first paragraph?A.The author's father was born in a worker's family.B.Those born stupid could not change their life.C.The town elders wanted to learn about the

(呼和浩特专版)2020中考英语复习方案阅读理解填词(01)人物故事说明介绍观点态度试题

阅读理解填词(一) 人物故事+说明介绍+观点态度AThere are many different methods for studying languages and learning new words. One man has come up with his own 1.w to understand the meanings of words—through rhyming(押韵). He uses words 2.t end with the same sound or a similar sound.Chris Strolin, an old man 3.f America, is working on an English language dictionary completely made up of limericks. A limerick is a short 4.p that has five lines that rhyme.Strolin says the idea for his dictionary started out as a joke when he 5.i it to some of his language-loving friends. His way was to use limericks.In 2004, he 6.d to start his own limerick dictionary online. He called it The Omnificent English Dictionary in Limerick Form. He started out with a limerick explanation of the word “a”. From there, he just kept going.Since the work is not 7.e , Strolin invited others to help come up with and add their own limericks to the dictionary. So far, 1,000 people have given their ideas. To date, more than 97,000 rhyming definitions(释义) have been created, with the number expected to 8.r 100,000 this year.The dictionary itself will be growing for many years to come. Strolin said his dictionary would not be 9.f finished until 2076.He said he hoped his grandchildren, or maybe 10.t children, would take over the work and finish it.B [2020·原创题]From deserts and beaches to playgrounds, sand is a common sight. But you might not know that sand is also a 1.u resource.Sand is the second most-used resource in the world after water, the BBC reported. 2.H , the UN said that sand is not limitless and that we might be running out of it.Sand is made up of very small 3.p of rock, soil and minerals(矿物质). It can take tens of thousands of years to form. But now we are using sand more quickly 4.t it is being formed. According to the BBC, we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year to build houses, roads and 5.o things. That’s enough to build a 20-meter-high by 20-meter-wide wall around the equator(赤道) every year.People also put sand in the sea to make new 6.i . Singapore, for example, is now 20 percent 7.b than it was in 1965.Palm islands are three large man-made islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. They took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build.If people 8.k using this much sand, it will run out in many places. For example, Vietnammay run out of construction(建造) sand by 2020, Live Science noted.Since people need so much sand, they are trying to mine(开采) more of it. But this is bad forthe 9.e . Mining sand may cause beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places10.c to the sea. Also, this may affect the habitats(栖息地) of many plants and animals.COur lives are flying byPaper cups, plastic bags and old newspapers. There are so many single-use products that we throw 1.a after using only once.But the 2.i of single-use is about more than just plastic and paper. According to newswebsite Quartz, we are now living in a “throw-away society”. Single-use has become a natural wayof life and can be seen 3.a everywhere.Every day, we see new memes(表情包) stories and internet slang(网络俚语) on social media. Withso many of them 4.c out all the time, the lifespan(寿命) of each becomes short—they become“single-use online products”. This 5.a means social media users are always searching forthe next big thing.You may 6.f frustrated when trying to keep up with these memes and slang, but you justcannot help 7.b keep scrolling(滚屏). The stream is endless—no matter whether it’s WeChat Moments(朋友圈), Sina Weibo or Facebook.While you view single-use content online, you also produce it as well. Since 2017 WeChat Momentshas allowed users to make only the last three days of their posts viewable. This encourages peopleto 8.s without thinking too much.Since it doesn’t take too much time and energy to 9.c anymore, we now even have disposable(用后即扔的) friendships, according to a story in Fast Company.A single-use way of life may give you quick pleasure. But without any deep thought behind it,the 10.p may not last for long. It only keeps us coming back for more. Maybe weneed to slow down and enjoy a more thoughtful way of life.【参考答案】A [主旨大意] 本文是一篇记叙文。

It is a fearful thing for travellers, especially if night falls, to hear the hungry howls(狼嚎) of the wolves as they get nearer and nearer.A Russian nobleman, with his wife and a young daughter, was travelling in a sleigh(雪橇) over a bare plain. At nightfall they reached an inn, and the nobleman called for more horses so that he could continue his journey. The innkeeper begged him not to carry on. “There is danger ahead,” he said. “The wolves are out.” The traveller thought that the reason that the man was telling him this was to keep him as a guest for the night. The nobleman replied that it was too early in the season for wolves, and ordered for the sleigh to be made ready to set off. Not caring about the repeated warnings of the innkeeper, the nobleman and his family left on their way.The driver had worked his whole life for the nobleman. He loved his master as he loved his life. The sleigh travelled quickly over the hard snow, and there seemed no signs of danger. The moon began to shine, so that the road looked like shiny silver. Suddenly the little girl said to her father, “What was that strange howling sound I heard just now?” Her father replied, “Nothing but the wind is blowing through the trees.” The child shut her eyes, and kept still for a while. However, in a few minutes, with a face pale with fear, she turned to her father, and said, “Surely that is not the wind! I hear it again. Do you not hear it too? Listen!” The nobleman listened, and far, far away in the distance behind him, he heard a sound of the wolves. His family and the driver of the sleigh did not know the sound.Whispering to the driver, he said, “They are after us. Get your gun ready. I will do the same. We may be able to get away from them. Drive on! Drive on!” The man drove as fast as he could, but nearer, ever nearer, came the howling which the child had first heard. It was perfectly clear to the nobleman that a pack of wolves had got their smell, and was running after them. Meanwhile he tried to calm his wife and child down.1.What is the fearful thing for travellers in the dark forests of Russia?()A.The snow.B.The hungry howls of wolves.C.The dark forests.D.The nightfall.2.What did the nobleman think of the innkeeper’s warnings?()A.He thought that the reason that the innkeeper was telling him was true.B.He thought it was too late in the season to meet wolves.C.He didn’t think the wolves weren’t out.D.He thought the innkeeper wanted to keep him as a guest for the night.3.What Chinese story is similar to that in Paragraph 2?()A.The story of Wu Song.B.The story of Li Kui.C.The story of Little Red Riding Hood.D.The story of Dongguo and Wolf.4.How did the wolves find the travellers?()A.The wolves got the smell.B.The sleigh travelled quickly over the hard snow.C.The wind was blowing through the trees.D.The girl’s whispering to the driver.5.Which statement isn’t mentioned in the passage?()A.The nobleman called for more horses so that he could continue his journey.B.The driver loved his master as much as his life.C.The nobleman was full of anxious fears.D.It was the little girl who heard the howls of the wolves first.CAs a new teacher in Denver, Kyle felt that there was something she didn’t know about her students. She thought up a lesson plan called “I Wish My Teacher Knew…”.For th e activity, Kyle’s students wrote down a thought for their teacher and shared something they’d like her to know about.The students loved this idea. Many of them were not only willing to include their names, but also enjoyed sharing it with the class.“I wish my teacher knew I don’t have pencils at home to do my homework,” one wrote.“I wish my teacher knew I don’t have friends to play with,” another shared.“I wish my teacher knew sometimes my homework is not signed(签名) because my mum is not around a lot,” read another.After she learned most of her students led heartbreaking lives, Kyle shared some of the notes on social media. She hoped other teachers would use the same lesson with their own students. Soon posts and photos of notes from other schools poured in(涌入) from around the world.“After one student shared that she had no one to play with at break, the next day during break I noticed she was playing with a group of girls. Not only can I support my students, but my students can support each other,” said Kyle.Kyle’s story won the hearts of many people.“I take my hat off to this teacher.

little girls because of her husband's friend.Not long ago,the friend arrived late for a meeting because his wife was out and he had to help with his daughter's hair braiding.However,he just looked at

things.One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money.In western countries,people did not use paper money until the 15th century.However,people in China began to use paper money in the 7th century.A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2000 years ago.He made it fromwood.He took the wood from trees and made it into paper.He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.Now paper still comes from trees.We use a lot of paper every day! If we keep on wasting so much paper,there will not be any trees on the earth.If there are no trees,there will be no paper.Every day ,people throw away about 2800 tons (吨)of paper in our city.It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper.This means that we are cutting nearly 48000 trees every day.Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow,we must start using less paper now.If we don't,we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place ofthose we use for paper.So how can we save(节约)paper?We can use both sides of every piece of paper,especially when we are making notes.We can choose drinks in bottles instead(代替)of those in paper packets.We can also use cotton handkerchiefs (手帕)and not paper ones.When we go shopping,we can use fewer paper bags.If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag,we can save it and reuse it later.Everyone can help to save paper.If we all think carefully,we can help protect trees.But we should do it now,before it is too late.(1)When he was in China,Marco polo.A.saw many wonderful thingsB.learned to make paperC.discovered Cai Lun invented paperD.told people about it(2)Which of the following is NOT the way of saving paper?A.To grow more treesB.To use the paper bags from shops more than onceC.To use cotton handkerchiefs instead of paper onesD.To use both sides of every piece of paper(3)Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.If we keep on wasting paper,we will have no paper to useB.The Chinese used paper money much earlier than the people in western countriesC.It is never too late to plant trees for paper.D.About 48000 trees can be used to make 2800 tons of paper.(4)Which is the best title (标题)of the passage ?A.The history of PaperB.Saving PaperC.Cotton Handkerchiefs Back AgainD.CaiLun ,the Great Inventor15.Hey,I'm Simon.I am a l4﹣year﹣old boy from America.My favourite animal is dogs.At home,I have a big and tall dog.His name is Bruce.He is my good friend.He likes playing with me.Sometimes he also follows my father to work in the field.Here,I'd like to tell a story to show how faithful Bruce is.One morning when my father worked in the field,he took off his coat and put it under a big tree.Then he turned to the dog and said,"Watch my coat,Bruce!"Bruce understood what my father asked him to do and sat down on the coat.Later,my father remembered he had to buy some food.So he hurried to the shop.After shopping,he went home immediately and forgot completely about his coat and the dog.In the evening,I looked for my dog everywhere in the house,but I couldn't find him.At this time,my father suddenly remembered his coat and the dog.So we went back to the tree at once.As a result,we found that Bruce was still sitting on the coat!(1)Simon is from.A.America B.England C.Australia D.India。

Now she has been taking pictures across Europe, all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg.“I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design (设计) on it. One day I had a sudden idea to get a chalkboard,” Gallagher said. “My mum and grandmother didn’t like the idea, but my friends liked it and told me to go for it, so I did.”Gallagher said people often stared when she was writing on her leg.

It is a fearful thing for travellers, especially if night falls, to hear the hungry howls(狼嚎) of the wolves as they get nearer and nearer.A Russian nobleman, with his wife and a young daughter, was travelling in a sleigh(雪橇) over a bare plain. At nightfall they reached an inn, and the nobleman called for more horses so that he could continue his journey. The innkeeper begged him not to carry on. “There is danger ahead,”he said. “The wolves are out.” The traveller thought that the reason that the man was telling him this was to keep him as a guest for the night. The nobleman replied that it was too early in the season for wolves, and ordered for the sleigh to be made ready to set off. Not caring about the repeated warnings of the innkeeper, the nobleman and his family left on their way.The driver had worked his whole life for the nobleman. He loved his master as he loved his life. The sleigh travelled quickly over the hard snow, and there seemed no signs of danger. The moon began to shine, so that the road looked like shiny silver. Suddenly the little girl said to her father, “What was that strange howling sound I heard just now?” Her father replied, “Nothing but the wind is blowing through the trees.” The child shut her eyes, and kept still for a while. However, in a few minutes, with a face pale with fear, she turned to her father, and said, “Surely thatis not the wind! I hear it again. Do you not hear it too? Listen!” The nobleman listened, and far, far away in the distance behind him, he heard a sound of the wolves. His family and the driver of the sleigh did not know the sound.Whispering to the driver, he said, “They are after us. Get your gun ready. I will do the same. We may be able to get away from them. Drive on! Drive on!” The man drove as fast as he could, but nearer, ever nearer, came the howling which the child had first heard.
