2015年北京市英语中考模拟试题专项阅读理解C篇汇编含答案
2015年北京市英语中考模拟试题专项阅读理解C篇汇编一、北京市朝阳区2015中考一模CWhere did that number come from?Eleven and TwelveThe reason behind the change in number naming is that eleven comes from the German term ainlif, which translates to “one left”. Twelve follows the same rule. It comes from twalif—“two left”. Why teen is used instead of lif for 13 through 19? There is something sadly lost in history.911 for US Emergency (急救) CallsEarly phones didn’t use phone numb ers—the operator had to connect your call by hand—and this led to the need for an emergency code (信号). But later phone numbers became popular, that changed. In 1967, 911 was chosen as the nationwide emergency call because it was easy to remember and could be quickly dialed (拨) on the phone.26.2 Miles in a Marathon (马拉松)The story began with an ancient Greek soldier ca rrying message from a battlefield (战场) in Marathon to Athens. The modern marathon was born as a flagship event in the first Olympic Games, in 1896, with a distance (距离) of about 25 miles (40 km), as long as the distance from Marathon to Athens. But race organizers for the 1908 Olympic Games in London wanted to add something special. The race began at Windsor Castle and ended at White City Stadium, with runners finishing only after passing the royal (皇室的) box. The distance was 26.2 miles (42.1 km). And since 1924 this distance has been kept in marathon.28 Days in FebruaryBefore using the Gregorian calendar that we use today, one of the first Roman calendars had only 304 days and ten months (March through December), with six months of 30 days and four of 31 days. The second king of Rome improved the old calendar. He added 50 days for January and February. To make the new months longer, he took one day from each of the 30-day months, making 56 days to divide between January and February (or 28 days each). Later January was given one more day to add up to 355 days a year, but February still had 28 days. That’s how it became the shortest month and it stayed that way ever since.48. Which language do eleven and twelve come from?A. English.B. German.C. French.D. Russian.49. When was the number 911 chosen for US emergency calls?A. In 1896.B. In 1908.C. In 1924.D. In 1967.50. The marathon distance was made longer at London Olympic Games because ______.A. the British was a little weak in mathsB. the British didn’t like the Greek storyC. the British loved the royal family very muchD. the British wanted to make the race different51. How many days were there in each month after the king improved the old calendar?A. 28, 29 or 31.B. 28, 30 or 31.C. 28, 29 or 30.D. 29, 30 or 31.二、北京市顺义区2015年中考一模英语CComets(彗星) are parts of our solar system（太阳系）.Like the planets, they go around the sun.But comets are not made of solid rock like planets. Acomet is a ball of dust, stones, and ice. Many people callcomets dirty snowballs.The “snowball” may be only a few miles across. Butwhen the sun heats the “snowball,” much of i t is changed togases. The gases spread out and form the comet’s head,which may be thousands of miles across.* * *A comet moves fast in its trip around the sun. But whenwe see it, the comet does not seem to move. That’s becauseit is so far away. The moon moves fast, but when you look at it, you can’t see any motion. That’s because the moon is far away.So comets do not rush across the sky. You cannot see any motion. But if you look night after night, you can see that a comet changes position among the stars. If you watch the moon night after night, you’ll see that it also changes position.Each year astronomers discover new comets. Some of them are seen onlyonce. They make one trip around the sun and then go way out into space. The sun’s gravity（重力、引力）cannot hold them.Other comets, like Halley, keep returning. They have been captured by the sun. Halley’s earliest visit was probably 3,000 years ago. It may keep returning for another 3,000 years.But every time a comet goes around the sun, the comet loses part of itself. Gases and dust are pulled out of the comet. That’s why Halley is now dimmer than it used to be. Next time it visits us, in 2062, it may be even dimmer. Each visit it may get dimmer and dimmer, until it finally disappears.54. What is this passage mostly about?A. Comets and the sun.B. Why comets are like snowballs.C. Who discovered the first comet.D. Facts about comets.55. According to the passage, some comets have been “captured by the sun.” What does the underlined phrase mean?A. The comets are rushing into the sun.B. The comets have been brightened by the sun.C. The comets are stuck in the sun’s gravity.D. The comets have been burned by the sun’s heat.56. How does the author help the reader understand what a comet looks like?A. By telling about a famous one.B. By explaining how far away it is.C. By describing how fast it moves.D. By describing it as a dirty snowball.57. What is the most likely reason the author wrote this passage?A. To give information about comets.B. To tell readers about famous comets.C. To explain the importance of comets.D. To encourage readers to look for comets.三、北京市燕山2015年中考一模CIt was a cold winter day. A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth. “I’m paying for myself, and for the six cars behind me,” she said with asmile, handing over seven tickets. One after another, the next si x drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead already paid your fare.”It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend’s refrigerator: “Practice random (随意的) kindness and senseless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed (使某人印象深刻) her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman saw the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why she’d ta ken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. Alice put it in the newspaper, saying that though she liked it, she didn’t know where it came from or what it really meant.Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.“Here’s the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence (暴力) can build on itself.”The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been encouraged to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours!48. Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?A. She had seven tickets.B. She hoped to please others.C. She wanted to show kindness.D. She knew the car drivers well.49. Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she ___ .A. thought it was beautifully writtenB. wanted to know what it really meantC. decided to write it on a warehouse wallD. wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom50. Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?A. Judy Foreman.B. Natalie Smith.C. Alice Johnson.D. Anne Herbert.51. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. People should practice random kindness to those in need.B. People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C. People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D. People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.四、东城区2015中考一模试题CAlexis Martin is a three-year-old girl from Arizona. She hasn’t started kindergarten(幼儿园)yet, but she has an IQ above 160, which is well above the average (一般的)people’s IQ. So, th ere is no wonder that sh e has become the youngest member of Mensa, the largest and oldest high IQ society in the world. Mensa is an international club whose members must have an IQ score in the top 2% of the world. Currently, Mensa has 3,300 members under the age of18 in the U.S. Alexis is one of them.The average people generally have an IQ score of 100 points, but Alexis scored 160 points, the highest score on the test. The doctors who tested Alexis said she scored so high that they couldn’t even work out her IQ exactly. They think she is even smarter than 99.9% ofthe world population. Actually, she matched the IQs of talents like Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking and Bill Gates.Ian Martin, Alexis’ father, said his daughter showed signs of some special abilities at the age of one and she began reading books for pupils when she was ju st two years old. Now at the age of three, Alexis is reading on a fifth gradelevel.“From 12 months old, we’d be driving around in the car and sh e would repeat her bedtimestories from the night bef ore,”he said. “She didn’t just repeat them. She could remember every word of them exactly.”Ian Martin thinks his daughter also stands out when it comes to learning new languages. “Anytime she learns a word and just picks it up through anything. She never ever uses it i n the incorrect situation, ever.”Ian said.While Alexis’s parents are proud that their three-year-old daughter has become a member in Mensa, they are also aware of the price that comes with every gift. The doctors say Alexis should never attend a normal school and children with her level of intelligence(智力) often experience high anxiety(焦虑) unless they’re around similarly gifted boys and girls. Her parents decide to follow the advice and try to look for proper ways to help her get involved into society.48. Mensa only accepts ____________.A. teenagers under 18 in the U.S.B. people with IQs above 160 in the U.S.C. talents in the world like Albert EinsteinD. people withIQs in the top 2% of the world49. From the passage, we know that Alex is’ IQ is____________.A. getting higher through trainingB. beyond the limit of the IQ testC. above the IQ of Stephen HawkingD. growing too fast to get an exact score50. One of Alexis’ special abilities is that____________.A. she could read stories at the age of oneB. she could write books for pupils at the age of twoC. she canremember every word of what her parents saidD. she can learn new words quickly and use them properly51. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Alexis is sure to experience anxiety in the future.B. Alexis’parents can’t afford the gift that she chooses.C. Alexis’parents won’t be able to find her a normal school.D. Alexis may feel it hard to get along with the average people.五、海淀区2015中考英语一模CNeed to buy something? Why go to a store? Buy it on the Internet! Need it now? Why wait? Ask for next-day delivery! Each day, more and more people try online shopping. In fact, online sales have doubled in the last ten years. But not everyone is excited. Some scientists now say that online shopping is bad for the environment.People are surprised to hear this. “They think, ‘I don’t need to drive, and the business doesn’t need to build a store, so there will be less pollution,’” says NuriaProst, an environmental scientist. “But it is not so simple. In fact, online shopping is wasteful. It also adds to air pollution.”In truth, the Internet is not always as good a friend to the environment as it seems. For example, most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials. But paper use increased by 33 percent between 1986 and 1997. “Online shopping could have similarly negative effects,” says Nevil Cohen, a professor of environmental science.Part of the problem is what people are buying these days. In the past, people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material, such as books and clothing. But now people also shop online for large, heavy products such as televisions, computers, and furniture. These products need to be packed in large amounts of plastic and paper. This creates a lot of waste.Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution. When customers buy products and ask for next-day delivery, companies often have to send them by air. Airplanes use much more fuel than cars and produce more carbon dioxide (CO2). When people buy a lot of different things from different online businesses, this creates even more travel by airplane.Online product returns are al so a problem. For example, an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes without extra pay if they are the wrong size. This doubles the packing material and number of airplane trips required to sell one pair of shoes.“If people want to protect the environment,they need to think before they shop,” says Prost. “People need to ask themselves: Is this exactly what I want? Do I really need it tomorrow, or can I wait?” Online stores can also charge（收费）customers for returns. This may make people shop more carefully. “Online shopping is fast and easy,” says Prost, “but we can’t forget the negative effects it has on the environment.”48. Why does online shopping create a lot of waste?A. Because companies charge more for product returns.B. Because people buy too many things they don’t need.C. Because paper use has increased by 33 percent from 1986 to 1997.D. Because large, heavy products require much packing material.49. What do companies do to meet the needs of the next-day delivery?A. Prepare more products.B. Get more workers to pack.C. Send the products by air.D. Open more stores in cities.50. Prost probably agrees that ______.A. people should drive to stores to buy thingsB. online shopping adds pollution to the environmentC. online shopping saves more than shopping in a storeD. people can buy things online without careful consideration51. What is probably the best title of the passage?A. A Good Deal to Make?B. A Different Lifestyle to Keep?C. A Cleaner Way to Shop?D. A New Business to Start?六、怀柔区2015年中考一模CThere are many online food shopping sites. This is very surprising. Things like CDs, books, and DVDs sell well online. But it is quite different to sell food online because people like to see food with their own eyes. It is very important for people to buy fresh fruit and vegetables. Customers like to choose their food by its colour. They also want to touch and smell it. But some people like to go to the same shop to buy food, because they think the food there has a very good quality. So if the food is always good, they may also feel comfortable buying it online.Boxes of fruits and vegetables have been delivered(递送) to homes around Britain for a few years now. Dried or canned foods are almost always the same, but things like apples are not. People may want to choose their own apples so they can take the ones that aren't bruised(碰伤)or the ones that look nice. Buying dried and canned food online is easier. A person can buy this kind of food on the Internet and then buy fruits and vegetables at a store or a market.Now people can also buy food through supermarket websites. There people can find most of the things that supermarkets usually sell. Other food websites sell different types of food. Some sell food from one part of the world such as Asia. Others sell food that is hard to find in supermarkets. There are also websites that sell sweet foods such as cakes and candies.The food is usually delivered by the next day or even on the same day. People still need to be careful, though. They must check to see if the food is fresh when they get it. It is a good idea for people to find out how far away the food is being delivered from. It is also a problem if the company does not use refrigeration when they deliver food that should be kept cold. If traveling long distances in the summer to deliver the goods, this is important.48.When people buy food, they usually __________.A. choose the colourB. don't touch or smell itC. go to different shops each timeD. want to see with their own eyes49. It is not so easy to buy________ online.A. CDs or DVDsB. apples or bananasC. dried or canned foodsD. books or magazines50. If fresh fruit and vegetables _______, customers will buy them online.A. look niceB. have a very good qualityC. make people feel comfortableD. have been put into boxes51. When customers get the food they buy, it's important for them to________.A. pay for itB. use refrigerationC. check itD. cook it七、门头沟区2014~2015学年度初三一模CLast week, my granddaughter started kindergarten(幼儿园), and certainly I wished her success. I was saying something that is not true. What I actually wish for her is failure. I believe in the importance of failure.Success is boring. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or do something correctly the first time, which can often be a problem for the future. First-time success is usually a fluke(侥幸). First-time failure, in fact, is the natural order of things.Failure means how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase(短语) describing a good cook as “she who has broken many bowls”. If you’ve spent enough time in the kitchen and have broken a lot of bowls, probably you know a lot about cooking. I once had a dinner with a group of cooks, and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much their failures gave them.My younger daughter is a dancer. She spent three years getting ready for an act. She did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change the act—but she did anyway. She said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored; and if she was bored, she couldn’t play well. So she changed the act. She risked failure in order to feed her heart.My granddaughter is a perfectionist. But I will also, I hope, remind her of what she learned, and how she can do whatever it is better next time. I probably won’t tell her that failure is a good thing, because that’s not a lesson you can learn when you’re five. I hope I can t ell her, though, that it’s not the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the beginning.48. What did the writer really wish for her granddaughter in the kindergarten?A. Success.B. Failure.C. Kindness.D. Care.49. The third paragraph mainly tells us .A. what “a good cook” meansB. a cook should often cookC. a cook must break many bowlsD. failure means how we learn50. Why did the younger daughter change the act?A. Because she didn’t do well in it.B. Because she was asked to change it.C. Because she wanted to feed her heart.D. Because she wanted to try a failure.51. What does the writer hope to tell the granddaughter?A. Failure is a good thing.B. She can’t fail any more.C. Failure is not the end of the world.D. Success is the end of the world.八、平谷区2014-2015学年度初三一模CYou probably know you should say "please" and "thank you" at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can't hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears. So even if you are alone when listening to our MP3 players, you shouldn't turn it up too high. Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 off and put it away. Libraries, and schools don't allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don't have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it doesn't make sense to listen on your MP3 player at event. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.Take One Out! Once in a while, it's okay just to take out one earphone and not other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it's not for you.It's Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.49. We shouldn't turn up the music too high because loud music ______________..A．is not enjoyable B．hurts our ears C．is bad for MP3 players D．makes us uncomfortable50. If we listen to music at a sporting event, ___________.A. it’s impolite to othersB. we’ll miss part of the movieC. we won’t know what’s going onD. the players will be angry51 . We should turn our MP3 off and put it away when ___________ according to the passage.A. we read in a library B . someone asks us the wayC. we’re reading booksD. a waitor comes52. The writer wants us to ___________________ by writing the passage.A. be polite at restaurantsB. respect our classmates.C. follow the rules of librariesD. have music manners九、石景山区2015年初三英语一模试卷CSoap is more popular in liquid form than in bars in the UK – but there are good reasons to stick with the old traditional way of keeping clean, says GarethRubin.According to market research company Mintel, 87% ofBritons usually buy liquid soap, compared to only 13% who buy bars of it.solid soap is losing the popularity. But why do some people still prefer traditional solid soap?1. It’s what they’ve always known.Some people are just traditionalists. According to Mark Constantine, he thinks it’s always lovely when we’re using something that’s been about for 3,000 years. Solid soap has got a hugehistory and they’re very beautiful.2. Solid soap is more pleasant.Smelling a plastic bottle doesn’t feel very comfortable, while you can get bars of different textures and smells – some bars have sea salt, nuts, fruits or flowers in them for a bit of a surprise. Others come in beautiful or even funny shapes and sizes. You can tie attractive bars of soap up in silk ribbons (丝带) and present them as a gift to a loved one – the effect i sn’t quite the same when you do this with a liquid soap.3. Less packaging (包装) is better for the planet.All those bottles has to come from somewhere and go somewhere. Recycling can only do so much, whereas typically a bar of soap comes in a little paper wrapper and that’s it. If you care about the environment, you can even buy bars of soap without paper around them. “And about 60% of the cost of a bottle of soap goes on the packaging and the pump (泵头).” says Constantine.4. The bottles are a little bit difficult.You can hold a bar of soap in one hand and it works. With the bottles you first have to use both hands to unlock the pump, and shut your eyes to the liquid slowly dropping the sticky thing onto your bathroom floor. When the bar of soap runs down, you can still use it until it is no more, but with the liquid soap it is a difficult task to get the last drop out of the bottom.【】48. According to market research company Mintel, ______.A. solid soap is as popular as liquid soapB. more people refuse to buy liquid soapC. solid soap is becoming less popularD. solid soap is better for the planet 【】49. Compared to solid soap, liquid soap ______.A. has less packagingB. has a much longer historyC. is more pleasant in smellsD. has less funny shapes and sizes【】50. What can you infer from the passage?A. Liquid soap is not worth the price according to Constantine.B. A bottle of liquid soap cannot be a present for a friend.C. More people will buy solid soap without silk ribbons.D. It’s impossib le to use up the liquid soap in a bottle.【】51. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. People’s preference to soap is changing.B. Liquid soap is still liked by many Britons.C. The advantages and disadvantages of solid soap.D. The reasons why some people still prefer solid soap.十、顺义区2015届初三第一次统一练习CSome people say that today, reading is not as important as it was. These days we h ave photographs, films, radio and television. Why read a description of something when you can look at a photograph? Why read a newspaper when the latest news is brought to us every hour on radio and TV?Photography was certainly a wonderful invention. Pho tographs can give a very clear idea of places and of people that we have never seen. An encyclopedia (百科全书) , for example, is always better when it has good illustrations. But we also need words to explain the photographs and drawings. A photograph of an elephant may give us a very good idea of what an elephant looks like, but it tells us nothing about the different sorts of elephants there are and where they are found, their exact size and weight, how they can be useful to man and so on.In the same way, a good film has action, movement, color, and maybe music.These are things we do not find on the printed page. But reading a novel has certain advantages over watching even an excellent feature film. Reading a novel requires imagination. Each of us imagines a story differently.Watching news on television can certainly be exciting. But we need newspapers as well. Some important news stories happen when there are no cameras around. More importantly, a newspaper does not just report the news. It explains why something has been happening. It also contains interesting articles on different subjects. Newspapers are an important part of our lives, if we want to understand what is going on in the places we live as well as in other parts of the world.Reading is very important for information and pleasure. We need to be good readers to enjoy a full life as human beings. Reading is a skill and like other skills, it needs practice. The more we read, the better readers we become. And the better readers we become, the more we enjoy reading! The secret is to get the reading habit. Read at least a little every day.48.According to Paragraph 2, photographs can give us __________.A. enough information about people and placesB. no information about thingsC. some information about things but not enoughD. the wrong information about things49. Newspapers contain __________.A. more information than televisionB. less information than televisionC. more news from other countriesD. less information about important events than TV50. What are the advantages of novel over a feature film?A. There are more interesting subjects in novels.B. We do not hear any music in a novel.C. Novels always explain what is happening.D. Novels make us use our imagination.51. What does the author think about reading?A. It is a wonderful invention.B. It is an important part of our lives.C. It requires no practices.D. It is not as important as television.十一、丰台区2014-2015学年度中考一模CLooking for an original way to raise money for charity? Has your school run out of clever and fun ideas? Don’t give up.

2015北京市中考英语一模阅读B篇汇编含答案一、北京市朝阳区2015中考一模BSpam (垃圾邮件) mail is a fact of Internet life. Some of it carries bad things, but the main problem with spam is that it is unpleasant because it fills your mail box with pointless messages.Most email programs have built-in filters (过滤器) that will discover unwanted messages and put them into a junk folder (垃圾文件夹). You can make the filter learn what you consider to be spam or block certain senders.Avoid letting your email address appear on websites—spammers search the Internet for email addresses. Be careful who you give your email address to, and if you need to send out several copies of an email, use blind copy instead to cover the other people’s addresses.Delete (删除) spam emails without opening them. Signs of possible spam are bad spelling in email headers, strange sender addresses, or emails sent at unusual hours. If you do open a spam mail, never reply to it or click on any pictures it may have.If you receive an unexpected email pretending (伪装) to come from your bank, credit card company or other suppliers, be very careful. If the email asks you to reply, don’t do it! Instead, call up these places or visit their websites.Consider setting up a second email address and keep one address for your personal use and another for your online communication.44.

These stories often have a lesson to teach, too. Here are the stories of some everyday household inventions.Canned Food and the Can Opener—Get It Right!Peter Durand invented canned food in 1810, but there was a problem. Durand didn't have a good way to open the cans. In 1858, Ezra Warner invented a can opener. It used a piece of metal to cut and remove the top from the can, but it was difficult to use. Finally, in 1870, William Lyman added a wheel to the can opener. The metal went around the top of the can and removed it easily. Finally, people were able to open cans without a lot of work. Canned food was soon popular.Frozen Food—A Little Good Luck Can Help!Clarence Birdseye had the chance to go on a trip to如e Arctic. When people there caught fish, they put the fish in a container (容器) of ice to freeze it quickly. When people cooked the fish later, it was still good! This gave Birdseye an idea. He thought people could also have this kind of food at home. In 1926, Birdseye invented frozen food. People were able to store food in freezers for a long time.Air Conditioning—One Answer to Two Problems!Printing companies make books, so they use a lot of paper. Sometimes, changes in the weather can hurt the paper. In 1902, Willis Carrier invented air conditioning to control the temperature inside his printing company. This saved the paper. People soon realized other benefits of air conditioning. They started to air condition their homes in the summer. Carrier's invention changed the world!44. When was canned food invented?A. In 1810.B.

However, putting your feet on the table, using iPads, eating and drinking may also take place in school. Americans are famous for their casual (随意的)style. I didn’t think it was a big deal until I arrived here.I was told sitting still is what you should do in middle school. That is a traditional Chinese way to show that we are paying attention to what the teacher is saying. Meanwhile, it doesn’tseem to matter in the US. When I first saw a student lying on a sofa, I was shocked and thought the teacher may feel angry, but she didn’t. She just smiled and kept talking. Then I got used to it, and enjoyed the relaxing and comfortable position (姿势) in class. Yet it’s really easy to fall asleep if I feel too comfortable.Also, we don’t have uniforms at school. We can wear whatever we want. And teenagers here feel free to eat breakfast, snacks, and drink soda while teachers are talking. Teachers won’t feel upset and may even eat with them. Once, my English teacher was secretly eating a bag of chips in her seat.American teachers chat with students in class. It makes us feel closer to them. Although it does mean we go off topic easily.

A九、平谷区2014-2015学年度初三统练（一）BSometimes people call ours a "throwaway society". That means that we're always throwing away old things and buying new ones. Many times, you no longer need something, but someone else may just need to buy one. For example, if your baby doesn't like his toy car any longer, why not give it to a nearly family who has a little kid? That's one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. It's also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy store.Here arc some other ways to help the society save resources (资源):★Use the other side of the paper so that less trees are cut down.★Use rechargeable (可再充电的) batteries for your electric toys, MP3 players, cell phones, and cameras.★ Choose reusable travel cups instead of disposable (一次性的) paper or plastic cups.★Take your own cloth shopping bags instead of using the plastic bags that are offered when you go shopping. ★ Drink tap water instead of buying bottled water.And there are some things you can exchange with your friends, for example, books, toys, even clothes. It's a way for everyone to get something new without spending any money and without throwing many things away.45. What does “throwaway society” mean according to the passage?A. we don’t like old things.B. we don’t buy new things.C. we’re always throwing away old things.D. we’re always throwing away old thi ngs and buying new ones.46.

It's good for us to throw away old things and buy new ones.D. We are supposed to give the things we no longer need to our neighbors.48. What should we do in our daily life after reading the passage?A. Try to throw as few old things as we can.B. Use as many disposable things as possible.C.

One such expression is to touch all bases.There are four bases in baseball – first, second, third and home plate. When a baseball player hits the ball, he must run to each base – in order – and touch it with his foot. It is the only way to get a point. If the player hits the ball and fails to touch all the bases, the point will not be counted.The importance of touching all the bases was shown at the start of the 1974 baseball seasons.Hank Aaron was a player with the Atlanta Braves team. He was trying to find the record for hitting the most home runs (全垒打). Aaron needed just one home run to be well matched with the record held by Babe Ruth, the greatest hitter in baseball history. Aaron got that home run the very first time he had a chance to hit the ball. That gave him 714 home runs – the same as Babe Ruth. After that day, baseball fans held their breath every time when it was Hank Aaron’s turn to hit. When would he hit home run number 715?The wait was not long. In the second week of the season, Aaron again hit the ball over the wall. He had b eaten Babe Ruth’s record. But first, he had to run around the four bases. The other players on his team watched carefully to make sure he touched each one.So, to touch all bases means to do what is necessary to complete an activity.The expression is used to business and politics. No business deal or political events are really complete until you discuss all the problems involved. Or, as it is said, until you touch all bases.【】44. When a baseball player hits the ball, he must ______ to get a point.A. run to each base freelyB. touch t he home plate firstC. touch all the bases with his handsD. run to each base in order and touch it with his foot【】45. When was the importance of touching all the bases shown?A. At the start of the 1974 baseball seasons.B. At the end of the 1974 baseball seasons.C. Before the baseball rules made.D. In the second week of 1974.【】46. Who hit home run number 715?A. Babe Ruth.B. Hank Aaron.C. Babe Ruth’s partner.D. Hank Aaron’s friend.【】47. What do es the expression “to touch all bases” mean?A.

(共10分，每小题2分)Why is Denmark the “kingdom of fairy tales”? Because it was the home of famous writer Hans Christian Andersen. But there might be other reasons, says a new study.Denmark is the happiest country in the world, according to the 2013 World Happiness Report by the United Nations (UN). The report ranks（排列）156 countries and regions (地区). All the top five happiest countries are from Europe, and three of them are from Scandinavia.What makes people there happy? The UN considered several reasons.Money is one. We are happy if we have money to cover our necessities. But extra (额外的) money cannot bring us more happiness. People in Northern Europe know this. From cars to mobile phones, from clothes to buildings, their designs are quite simple. Luxury (奢华) is not there.Another reason is health. Nordic (北欧的) people have a healthy diet. They love fresh food. “There is not a big fast-food culture and no ready meals. We sit down with our families to eat our meals,” said Trina Hahnemann, a Danish cook.A harmonious (和谐的) social life also makes us happy, according to the UN report. How about Nordic people? They live in harmony not only with people around, but also with nature. Night life is not popular in Scandinavia. People go home after work for some quality（高品质的） time with family members. Many families have a backyard. Father and child spend hours there each week, planting flowers and building swings.Do you want to be happy? Think about the Nordic lifestyle, and happiness is in your own hands.61. Where does Hans Christian Andersen come from?62. How many countries of the top five happiest countries are from Scandinavia?63. Do Nordic people love fresh food or ready meals?64. What can make people happy according to the passage?65. What does the writer want to tell us?2.【房山】Doctors say anger can be very dangerous. We have to learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a peaceful and reasonable way. Some people are so angry that they shout or cry to show their anger. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing(压抑性的) anger.In the past many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it.They said that when a person is angry, the brain produces the same hormones(荷尔蒙). Their hearts beat faster, blood pressure goes up. In general the person feels excited and to act.Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe if you express anger with wrong emotion, you may develop heart disease, and they believe if you keep the anger inside, you may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.Doctors say we have to learn how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to agree that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself peacefully and reasonably.”Doctors say that the best way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry.

No one can look bad if they smile.For long legs, point one leg into center of the frame and get the photographer to shoot looking up your body.For just leg shots, lie upside down and raise legs in the air for the best angle. And your legs will look thinner and be in better shape.Keep shoulders back.Always have mouth slightly open, enough to put a penny between your lips, as this will make your lips look fuller.Lower your eyes and then look up just as shutter (快门) is clicked for full eyes.Try to catch every perfect photogenic moment!61.What is the most important thing when you take photos?62.When is better to take photos outside?63.What should you learn when you practice in Photo Booth?64.What should you do with your shoulders when taking photos?65.

There are lots of reasons why they do this—mostly it is easy to find work, because all the big companies are in the cities and they need lots of people to work there. When there are lots of people living and working in a city, they need things like restaurants, shops, hospitals and schools. There are more jobs that people need to do. There will be lots of transport in the city to move all the people around. Everything you want will be found in the city: government offices, museums and art galleries, cinemas, big restaurants and parks.Unfortunately(遗憾地) the city is much busier, more expensive, and more dangerous than the country. The air is not as fresh as in the country because of all the cars and trucks on the roads. There are so many people that are not as friendly—— you cannot get to know everyone as you do in the country, and people may get lonely. You do not have much room in the city——most people live in apartments——not houses, and they do not have gardens or lots of space, and because of all the people there is also a lot of noises.The country is much cheaper to live and there are less dangerous people than you find in cities. Perhaps the best thing is that you can have a big house with a garden and it will be very quiet, but there are not many jobs or services there. There are also not many shops, schools or hospitals. It is hard to get around in the country.Every person is different, but more and more people are choosing to live in cities because there are so many jobs to do there. What do you think about the city?65.Are our cities getting bigger than before?66.Why do people move to the city?67.What is the best thing about the country?68.What is the problem with the country?69.What does the writer think about cities?7.【怀柔】Have you ever had problems in your life and don’t know how to be happy? If so, you will find Being A Happy Teenager by Australian writer Andrew Matthews is useful.Andrew Matthews is a writer, cartoonist and speaker. His books have been translated into 20 languages. He has been on over 2000 radios and TV programs.In his book, Matthews tells us how to have a happy life and answers the questions of teenagers.There are many topics such as parents and friends, and the book says we should stop being angry and forgive. The book tells us a lot of useful skills, such as how to put what you have learned into pictures of your mind to make your memory better. Many teenagers think that happiness comes from a good exam marks or praise from other people. But you can still be happy when there are no such “good” things. Success comes from a good attitude. If you learn from problems you will have success in the future.Some school boys have problems, such as being too tall or too short. But Matthews tells us happiness comes from thinking about thing in a positive way.If you are tall, people notice you and you can get a better view at the movie; If you are short, your clothes and shoes take less room in your bedroom.This is Matthews’most important lesson—you choose to be happy.61. Is Andrew Matthews a writer?62. How many languages have his books been translated into?63. What does Matthews tell the teenagers in his book?64. According to the writer, what does success come from?65. What is the passage mainly about?8.【门头沟】One morning, a blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held a sign which said, “I am blind. Please help me.”There were only a few coins in the hat. A man was walking by. He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it. He put the sign back so that everyone walked by could see the new words.Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, “Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?”The man said, “I only wrote the truth. I said what you said, but in a different way.” What he had written was, “Today is a beautiful day, but I can’t see it.”Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing? Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty of the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.The first sign simply said the boy was blind, while the second sign told people they were lucky that they were not blind. There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story. The first is: Treasure what you have. Someone else has less. Try your best to help those who need your help. The second is: Be creative. Think differently. There is always a better way.61. Did the boy need help?62. What did the man write on the sign?63. What happened after the man wrote something on the sign?64. Why did the man come back that afternoon?65. How did people probably feel when they saw the second sign?9.【石景山】Have you ever ridden a Ferris wheel lately? Can you imaginethe flying feeling as you are pulled up to the top and then moveddown to the bottom quickly again?Today a Ferris wheel is usually 40 to 60 feet tall. That seemsvery high when you are on the top looking down. But the firstFerris wheel was 264 feet high –taller than a twenty-story Ferris wheelbuilding! Can you imagine the view from the top of that?The first Ferris wheel was built for the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago. The people who planned the fair were looking for an attraction that would bring people to Chicago. George Ferris handed a drawing of a giant wheel that people could ride on. At first everyone laughed at his strange idea. But Mr. Ferris did not give up, and finally the idea was accepted. The ride opened in June of 1893. Today’s Ferris wheels have 12 to 16 seats, which each carry 2 o r 3 people. But that first one had 36 enclosed cars, each holding 60 passengers. When filled, it carried 2,160 people. During that summer in Chicago, about 1.5 million people rode the Ferris wheel.After the fair the ride was moved to a nearby amusement park built especially to show off the wheel. In 1904, it was moved again – to St. Louis for the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. After the fair there, the wheel stood unused. In 1906 it was finally sold to a company for scrap metal (废铁). Luckily a Chicago bridge builder, W.E. Sullivan, figured out how to make a smaller Ferris wheel that could easily be taken apart and put together. In 1906 he started the company that still makes many of the Ferris wheels used today.But, whenever you ride one, reme mber that it all began with George Ferris’s strange idea!61. How tall is a Ferris wheel today?62. What was the first Ferris wheel built for?63. What did people think of Ferris’s idea at first?64. How many people rode the first Ferris wheel during the summer in 1893?65. Compared with today’s Ferris wheels, what was the first Ferris wheel like?10.【东城】I love travelling so you can imagine my disappointment when I knew that my local train station would be closed for five months. Unfortunately I do not have a car but I realized that Icould start carpooling.Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. As a result, carpooling can be a cheaper choice than public transport because everyone in the car shares the cost of petrol（汽油）. I recently did carpooling for the first time and it was very easy to find a driver. I used a website which lists drivers’ descriptions and found someone who was going to the same place as me. The descriptions provided a lot of informati on such as the driver’s first name, age and gender as well as reviews from previous（以前的）passengers. I decided to travel with a lady who had very good reviews. I paid for my share of the petrol through the website and planned to meet her in the town center.It may seem quite dangerous to travel with a stranger but there are some safety actions. Firstly, the driver cannot receive your money until you text him or her a code（密码）at the end of your journey. This means that if you are unsatisfied with your trip, the driver will not be paid. Secondly, it is important to read quite a number of the drivers’ descriptions and reviews when you choose a driver. Lastly, I would suggest travelling with a friend so that you will feel safer and less lonely.I had a very good experience carpooling. Not only was the trip very cheap, but the driver and the other passengers were really friendly. They were all French so I had the chance to practice speaking some French. As train and petrol prices are rising, both drivers and passengers can benefit from this cheaper form of travel. More importantly, carpooling provides a fantastic opportunity to meet interesting people on your travels.61. How did the writer usually travel before starting carpooling?62. Who pays for the petrol when people do carpooling?63. When can the driver receive the money from a passenger?64. To keep safe, what does a passenger need to do when choosing a driver?65. In the writer’s opinion, what are the advantages of carpooling?11.【西城】Our views towards life change over the time. When I was around five years old, I was in a car accident. At that time, I did not realize the seriousness of it and how lucky I was to still be alive. As I look back to think what happened on that night, I now realize how lucky my family members and I were to not havegotten serious injuries.The day of the accident started out great. My brother, Troy, and I had spent the night before at JoAnn’s house, with Heather, and JoAnn’s husband Gary. The next day we spent playing inside the house, because it was cold, windy and rainy outside. At night, JoAnn told us we were going out and that where we were going was a surprise. The five of us climbed into an old car, and we set off for our surprise. It was still cold, windy, and raining cats and dogs outside when we left. Troy, Heather and I sat in the backseat together happily. The next thing I knew was that everything was chaos (混乱)! The road was so slick (滑的) that the car lost control. Glass was flying everywhere, and it sounded like there was noise all around us. Then it was totally quiet, except for the sound of the rain and wind. Troy, Heather and I were all lying on top of one another. The three of us were crying, not knowing what had happened. JoAnn and Gary were trying to calm (使平静) us down and kept asking us if we were all right. Luckily, none of us was injured, just a few cuts. After that I only remember sitting there in the cold, dark night waiting for Gary to get back with people to help us. We never got to the surprise that night. But at least we were able to go home in one piece.After my brother and I got home that night, I remember my parents let us stay up as long as we wanted to. I guess my parents were realizing just how close they came to losing us that night. As I think of the tragedy (悲剧) that could have happened on that night, I realize how precious (宝贵) life is. I treasure my family and friends, and hope that we will share a loving, caring, and rewarding lifetime together. Things seldom go the way I plan them to, butI take a deep breath, try to laugh, and make the best of it.61. Did the accident happen at night?______________________________________________________________ 62. What was the weather like when the accident happened?______________________________________________________________63. How did the accident happen?______________________________________________________________ 64. What was the writer doing when Gary asked for help?______________________________________________________________ 65. What is the passage mainly about?______________________________________________________________ Confidence is very important in daily life. It can help you to develop a healthy attitude （态度）. A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chance to make themselves successful. But how to be more confident? Here are some suggestions:·Speak loud When you are not confident, you can't do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can hardly hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you clearly. The high voice can help you become more confident.·Play sports Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed. A strong body helps you be full of confidence.·Encourage yourself Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you've done.·Get rid of fear Fear comes along with failure. But it's easy to overcome （克服）if you know that failure is part of your life. Don't hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. Try to start again and believe you can do better.·Pick up a hobby If you like singing, sing as much as you can. In some ways, a hobby can make you outstanding. And it will make you happy and confident.65．Is confidence very important in our daily life?66．How many suggestions can you get from the passage?67．Which can help you to be more confident, to speak in low voice or in loud voice? 68．How Can you encourage yourself?·69．What ‘s the main point of this passage?12.【顺义】13.【通州】When a letter appeared in the DEAR DOCTOR column(专栏) of a newspaper, the doctor’s reply was the following:Dear Mr. L.,I don’t think there is anything wrong with your blood. The key to the problem is the long nap(小睡) after dinner.If you didn’t sleep for hours during the early part of the evening, you should be more ready to sleep at bedtime. If you didn’t nap after dinner, you would not want to stay up so late, and you would not feel the need to take a sleeping pill. The pill is still working in your body when you get up in the morning. This helps explain the fact that you feel tired all day.You should get out of the habit of sleeping during the evening. Right after your evening meal, join some kinds of physical activity—a sport such as tennis, perhaps. Or get together with friends for an evening of cards and conversation. Then go to bed at your usual time or a little earlier, and you should be able to get a good night’s rest without taking a pill.If you can get into the habit of spending your evening this way, I am sure you will feel less tired during the day. At first it may be hard for you to go to sleep without taking a pill. If so, get up and watch television or do some jobs around your house until you feel sleepy. If you fall asleep and then wake up a few hours later, get up but do not take a sleeping pill. Read a while or listen to the radio, and make yourself a warm drink. Eat a sandwich or a cookie. Then go back to bed. Even if you get only a few hours’ sleep that night, you will feel better in the morning than you usually feel after taking a pill. The next night you will be ready to sleep at an earlier hour.65. Is the letter written by a doctor?66. What’s the reason that Mr. L. can’t sleep well?67. Why does Mr. L. feel tired all day?68. What should Mr. L. do if it is hard for him to go to sleep according to the letter?69. What are the things that the doctor suggests Mr. L. not to do?。

During summer vacations, I would volunteer at the pet rescue (救助) centre, so I could see a lot of dogs. Minnie was the funniest-looking dog I'd ever seen by far. Her body looked like a sausage. Her hair was too thin to 31 her body. Her eyes always seemed surprised, and her tail was so short that it looked like a rat’s tail.She looked so strange that her 32 didn’t want her any more. She was brought to the centre. But I thought, “Minnie was kind and sweet. No one should laugh at her strange looking.”So I gave Minnie a good bath and 33 her in the newspaper: “Funny-looking dog, kind and sweet, needs loving 34 .”Later, a boy called me, but I warned him that Minnie was 35 . However, the boy told me that his grandfather’s sixteen-year-old dog had just died. They wanted to keep Minnie very much. Hearing these words, I said that they could take Minnie away.
