It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance (救护车).

But after a little practice he found that he was becoming very skilled and soon he was making some of the finest tacks.Old Mr. Smith died and the son on account of the war lost all his goods. He had to leave home and wasforced to live in another country. It so happened that in this village there were many shoemakers who were spending a lot of money buying tacks for their shoes and even at times when they paid high prices they were not always able to get what they wanted, because in that part of the country there was a high demand for soldiers’ shoes.Our young Mr. Smith, who was finding it difficult to earn his daily bread, remembered that once upon a time he had learned the art of making tacks and had the sudden idea of making a bargain with the shoemakers. He told them that he would make the tacks if they would help to get him settled in the workshop. The shoemakers were only too glad of the offer. And after a while, Mr. Smith found that he was soon making the finest tacks in the village.“How funny it seems,” he used to say, “even making tacks can make money.

Then, some people learned to grow crops and raise animals for food. They were the first farmers.From the sixteenth century on, the word “farm” has meant agricultural land. But a much older meaning of the word “farm” is linked to economics. The word “farm” comes from the Latin word “firma”, which means an unchanging payment. E xperts say the earliest meaning of the English word “farm” was a yearly payment made as a tax or rent.Farmers in early England did not own their land. They paid every year to use agricultural lands. In England, farmers used hawthorn trees along the edges of houses. They called this row of hawthorns a hedge. Hedging fields was how careful farmers marked and protected them. Soon, people began to use the word “hedging” to describe steps that could be taken to protect against financial loss. Hedging is common among gamblers who make large bets. A gambler bets a lot of money on one team. But, to be on the safe side, he also places a smaller bet on the other team, to reduce a possible loss.You might say that someone is hedging his bet when he invests in several different kinds of business. One business may fail, but likely not all. Farmers know that it is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay has to be cut and gathered when it is dry. So a wise farmer never postpones gathering his hay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear. A wise person copies the farmer. He works when conditions are right.1.We can know from the 3rd paragraph that farmers in early England _________.A. had land of their ownB. paid to use hawthorn trees every yearC. used hedging fieldsD. often suffered from financial loss2.Which of the following is wise?A. A mother tries to sleep as soon as her baby is quietB. Hay has to be cut and gathered before it is dryC. Put off gathering hay when the sun is shiningD. Gather hay as it is rainy3.If a boy is carefully listening to his teacher in class, he learns to _________.A. become a wise farmerB. hedge his betC. gather his hayD. make hay while the sun shines答案：CAD6My grandfather is eighty years old. He always complains about how fast things have changed, and he often says that life used to be better."Families aren't what they used to be. A lot of families have broken up. If the husband and wife have problems with their marriage, they no longer stay together. And mothers used to stay at home and take care of their children, but now parents are both busy working. No one has time to look after children at home.And the cars! No one walks anymore. More and more people drive. We used to walk five miles to school on school days, even in winter. But now we don't. And in school, children don't have to think anymore. In math class, for example, we used to add, subtract, multiply and divide by using our heads. But now kids don't use their heads anymore. Instead, they use calculators.Most families have computers now. In the past we didn't have computers. We didn't even have lights. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen. But now we don't often eat home-cooked food.And people talk less to each other than before. They are too busy to talk, too busy to eat, too busy to think...Life used to be simple, but it isn't anymore."1. What does the grandfather think of the life now?A. It's as good as it used to beB. It's worse than it used to beC. It's better than it used to beD. It's the same as it used to be2. What does the underlined word "marriage" mean in Chinese?A. 生活B. 工作C. 婚姻D. 家庭3. What did the grandfather used to do?A. He used to use calculators in math classB. He used to drive to school in winterC. He used to go to school by bikeD. He used to walk five miles to school4. What changes have happened?①There are lights at home②People often eat home-cooked food now③Lots of families have computers④More and more people drive instead of walkingA. ①②④B. ②③④C. ①②③D. ①③④5. Which of the following is TURE?A. Life now is much simplerB. People have more time to talk with each other nowC. The grandfather only complains and pays no attention to the better life nowD. Lots of mothers still stay at home and look after their children.答案：BCCDC。

First, it,s very cheap to use a bike, and it,s quick too. You often wait for a bus for half an hour. When the bus comes, there are so many other buses and cars on the road that the bus moves very slowly. The underground train is quick but very expensive and often crowded.I traveled to work by bus for about four years. I often arrived at work late and tired. Then one day, about two years ago, a workmate said,“I go to work by bike, why don,t we travel together?”“Because my bike is old,”I answered,“and there are so many buses and cars on the road. I always feel frightened.”“You needn,t worry about this,”said my friend.“If you follow me and we ride slowly, you,ll be fine.”Although we went slowly, we arrived at work quickly. The bus ride took forty minutes and the bike ride took half an hour!The next day I bought myself a new bike. Now I don,t feel afraid. I love cycling to work, and I feel fit and well.Many people think in the same way as I do. That,s why you see a lot of bikes on the road. Who knows, perhaps in the future we,ll have roads for bicycles only. I hope so!1.What can we see on the road if we visit London now?2. The writer went to work three years ago.3.How long did it take the writer to go to work by bike?4.Is riding a bike good for our health?5. The writer hope we’ll have roads one day.。

阅读理解People used sundials(日晷) to tell the time in ancient times. It was very difficult to calculate time before the invention of clocks.The Chinese invented the first mechanical clock (机械钟) in 1088. One hundred andninety-five years later, the British invented the first clock in Europe. The Germans invented the alarm clock 67 years later.The Italians invented the first pocket watch in 1462. Early watches were different from today’s in two ways. First, they only had an hour hand. Second, you had to keep them in your pocket. People called them “pocket clocks”.The first wrist watches(腕表) came from Switzerland, 328 years after the first pocket clock was invented. But they did not become popular until a hundred years later.Digital(数码的) clocks and watches came from the US. Shops started to sell them in 1971. At that time, they were the newest invention in timekeeping.Today there are many kinds of watches. Some are very cheap, some are very expensive, and some can even speak and tell you the time! Clocks and watches have come a long way.1．The first clock in Europe was invented in ________.A．1383B．1293C．1283D．12732．The right match about the clock is ________.A．American— the alarm clockB．Germans—the first pocket watchC．British—The first wrist watchesD．Chinese—the first mechanical clock3．Which is true according to the passage?A．Chinese first invented the clock.B．The first pocket watch had two hands.C．The first wrist watches became popular very quickly.D．People used alarm clock to tell time in ancient times.4．The main idea of the last paragraph is ________.A．The watches are different in kindB．The price of the watches is differentC．Different people have different watchesD．The watches were invented in different countriesNumbers are used everywhere. In Chinese culture, some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese characters that the numbers sound similar to.For example, the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for “making a fortune”. So, people consider it a very lucky number. Some people will even spend a lot of money having 8s in their phone numbers or vehicle license plate（车牌照）numbers. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8:08 p.m. on August 8, 2008.The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors’ robes (龙袍) and Chinese myth held that the dragon had nine children. The number 9 also stands for “long-lasting”. That’s why a man always proposes to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.So what’s a “bad luck” number in Chia? It might be 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as a bad luck number because it sounds similar to the character for “death”.Because of this, many buildings skip the fourth floor and simply call it the fifth floor. In Hong Kong, some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4.5．Which is not the reason why the number 9 is a lucky number?A．It also stands for “long-lasting”B．It was connected to the emperors of China.C．A man always proposes to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.D．It based on the Chinese characters the number 9 sounds similar to .6．We may not see the floor number_______ in the building in HongKong.A．18B．9C．14D．207．_______numbers are mentioned in the passage from one to nine?A．Two B．Three C．Four D．Five8．The main idea of the passage is _______.A．Why numbers are used everywhereB．What the numbers sound similar toC．What the numbers are in Chinese cultureD．What the lucky or unlucky numbers based onTina graduated from college.

Tina was surprised that the boss was not the old man who interviewed her several days ago. The boss gave her a lot of reports to write. But when she began to write, she found that she had much trouble understanding the reports. She spent almost the whole day trying to do the work. At 5:30 p.m., it was time to go home.Although most of the reports weren’t finished, she got into the lift. On the 10th floor, she met John, the old man who interviewed her several days ago. “Tina!” he said, “Why didn’t you work with us today?” All of a sudden, Tina realized she mistook the 11th floor for the 10th floor. “Oh, my God!” she answered, “______” After hearing this, John couldn’t help laughing.9．The underlined words “green hand” most probably mean a person ______.A．who wears in greenB．caring about the environmentC．doing well in gardeningD．without experience10．Tina was surprised because ________.A．her colleagues were not friendly to herB．she was given too many reports to writeC．the young boss wasn’t the man who interviewed herD．she went to the wrong floor11．Tina spent almost ______ to write the reports.A．the whole nightB．the whole morningC．the whole afternoonD．the whole day12．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Tina’s friend admired her only because she got a new job.B．The girls sitting near Tina were unfriendly to her.C．Tina arrived at the company at 5:30 a.m. on her first workday.D．Tina went to the 10th floor on that day.13．“________” can be the missing sentence in the passage.A．I forgot the interview date!B．I have finished all the reports!C．I have been in the wrong office all day!D．I forgot to finish the task.Computers are useful machines.

Parents buy computers for their children. They hope computers can help their children improve their studies. But many of the children use computers to play games, watch movies or chat, instead of studying. Many teachers and parents complain that computers make children fall behind. So many parents don’t allow their children to play computers again.In some other countries, even some scientists hate computers.

It will be up to people themselves.14．Why do we say the computer is a useful machine?A．Because it can help us a lot.B．Because it can help us to find jobs.C．Because we can use it to play games.D．Because our country asks us to learn it.15．What do many teachers and parents complain about?A．Computers let them lose their jobs.B．Computers make children fall behind.C．Computes bring people a lot of trouble.D．Their students and children use computers to play games.16．In this passage we know computers ______.A．are hated by peopleB．also bring us troubleC．bring us happiness onlyD．are bad for people’s health17．What does the underlined word “complain” mean?A．抱怨B．赞赏C．考虑D．解释Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The programme works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at he machine and it will be able to tell who you are.The eye-recognition (眼睛识别) programme is already being tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon, this technology (技术) will take the place of (取代) all other ways of finding out who people are.However, scientists are working on other systems (系统). Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes, so the programme can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. Some programmes may only be right 51% of the time. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye. So smile!18．In the near future, we don’t need carry our bank card because ________.A．there is no need for us toB．the machine read our eyesC．our eyes are quite differentD．our eyes has a special ability19．How many ways of finding people are mentioned in this passage?A．3B．4C．5D．620．What is the advantage of eye-recognition ?A．Eyes will never get older.B．Eyes will often get dirty.C．Eyes will not get dirty easily.D．Eyes will always be changing.21．What is the passage mainly about?A．People are very afraid of the eye-recognition.B．People are very interested in eye-recognition.C．Scientists are doing something about recognition.D．Scientists are finding out new ways of recognition.Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean! Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings? Since then, when I wanted to judge someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.22．When the author couldn’t see the woman through the window, ________.A．he worried about her B．he was a little disappointedC．he thought she should have cleaned it D．he wanted to help her clean it23．The writer couldn’t see everything clearly through the window because _________.A．the woman’s window was dirty B．the writer’s window was dirtyC．the woman lived nearby D．the writer was near sighted24．The underlined sentence “It dawn on me” probably means _________.A．I began to understand it B．it cheered me upC．I could see myself in the window D．it began to get light25．What does the author want to tell us?A．One shouldn’t criticize others very often.B．One should often make his windows clean.C．One must judge himself before he judges others.D．One mustn’t judge a person through his dirty window.Now I am a businessman. When I was in high school, I lost my wallet. I needed gas for my old car. After I paid for the gas, I left my wallet on the bumper (保险杠) and drove away. After some time, the phone rang and a man asked me if I lost my wallet. I checked my bag and found it wasn’t there. Then he told me where to pick up my wallet and asked me to come to get it. I thanked him about 10 times for finding my wallet. While I didn’t want to insult (侮辱) him by giving him some money, I really felt like giving something. So I asked him if there was anything I could do for him,and he said, “Just pass it on.”It was about 10 years later that I picked up a wallet too. I almost stepped (踩) on it! It took me several days to find the owner of the wallet. It was a young man. He lived in another state, about 60 miles away from where I found the wallet. When I returned his wallet, he was surprised that his money was still in the wallet and he tried to hand me $2,000. I told him, “No, thanks, but just pass it on.” “Yes, I will,” he said.26．Why did the writer NOT give the man any money to thank him?A．Because the man was very rich.B．Because the man stole the writer’s wallet.C．Because the writer didn’t want to insult him.D．Because there was no money in the writer’s wallet.27．What does the man mean by “Just pass it on”?A．He wanted the author to take good care of the wallet.B．He wanted the author to give the wallet to him.C．He wanted the author to go home.D．He wanted the author to pass on the kindness to others.28．What happened to the writer about ten years later?A．He lost his car.B．He stepped on a wallet.C．He lost his wallet again.D．He picked up a wallet too.29．How long did it take the writer to find the owner of the wallet?A．Several minutes.B．Several hours.C．Several days.D．Several weeks.30．What can we know from the last paragraph?A．The writer accepted the young man’s money.B．The young man would help others like the writer.C．The writer was angry with the young man.D．The writer bought another wallet later.Known as “Super Dan”, China’s badminton player Lin Dan is one of the greatest badminton players in history. Four months ago, Lin announced (宣布) his retirement (退役) through his personal Weibo account. Here is what he wrote:From 2000 to 2020, I’ve been through four Olympics and I never thought about stopping my career before. But now it’s time for me to say goodbye. And it’s actually so hard for me.At nearly 37 years old, my physical condition won’t allow me to fight with my teammates anymore. In the future, I wish to spend more time with my family.I want to thank my country that nurtured (养育) me, my coaches (教练) who trained me, my family who always stayed with me, my fans who supported me and my opponents (对手) who encouraged me to be better.

When you think back on it, you might think of many of your happy times. But how do you store these things in your mind? By using your memory. Memory is the ability to remember things. Memorizing happens in a special area in our brain. When something happens, your brain records (记录) the important information and puts it in that area. That is what we call “memory”.Scientists say that there are two kinds of memory—shortterm memory and longterm memory. Your shortterm memory can only last for a few seconds to a few minutes. But longterm memory is able to save information for a long period of time. People usually remember with shortterm memory, and then forget things quickly after they experience them. They learn about something one day, but forget half of it the next day. A week later, they remember just a third of what they have learnt. So people forget things easily without memorizing again and again.Scientists agree that people remember things in different ways. Some remember things betterwith the help of pictures. Others remember better when they take in the information by hearing it. But one thing is for sure, if you remember things with different ways together, you can get a better result. For example, try imaging pictures with English words, and at the same time listening to recordings of the words. Maybe studying English won’t be a difficult thing.36．The underlined word “store” in Paragraph 1 means ________.A．keep B．carry C．discuss D．imagine 37．What can we learn about the long-term memory from the passage?A．Long-term memory is the most important way of memorizing.B．Long-term memory lasts shorter than short-term memory.C．Long-term memory can save information about one week.D．People can get long-term memory by memorizing again and again.38．According to the scientists, how can people remember things better?A．By connecting sounds with pictures.B．By taking in information with smell.C．By connecting pictures with English words.D．By remembering with the help of pictures and sounds.39．What is the passage mainly about?A．Some different types of memory.B．Some difficulties in learning English. C．Some interesting facts about memory.D．Some ways to improve memory.40．In which section of the newspaper would you probably read this article?A．Fashion.B．Sports.C．Science.D．Stories.参考答案1．C2．D3．A4．A【导语】本文主要介绍了钟表的起源和历史。

So many teachers and parents complain that computers can not help children to study but make them fall behind. So computers are locked by parents in the boxes.In some other countries, even some scientists hate computers.

初二英语阅读理解精选题

初二英语浏览懂得精选题(一)My class will put on a short play in English at the end of the year. Yesterday our English teacher gave us copies of the play.“Choose a character in the play whom you’d like to be, ”she told us. “This afternoon learn a few lines of thi s part for homework. Then tomorrow you can say those lines in front of the class. I’ll decide who play each part.”I wanted to have one of the bigger parts in the play, so I choose the part of the king. He has a lot of lines to say. I learned them by heart.This morning in our English lesson we had to say our lines. I acted the part of the king. When I said my lines, I put a lot of expression into my acting. I thought I acted really well.Everyone in the class read a part and then the teacher who would play each part.Many of the students in my class couldn’t act at all. They couldn’t even read without making lots of mistakes. I was sure that I would get a big part in the play.However, the teacher gave me the part of a soldier. He has only one lin e. It is, “Yes, sir!”I was very disappointed. At the end of the lesson I went up to her and asked her why I had such a small part.“You put too much expression in your acting,” she said. “Good acting is not big acting. It is acting the audience can be lieve in.”I think I know what she means.48. What did the boy want to do in the play?A. To get an important partB. To organize the playC. To get a large acting part.D.

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(船埠), feet dangling(摇摆), 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 bury 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 of 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 dangle 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 hope I have time left to en joy 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.46. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______.A. relaxedB. worriedC. hungryD. proud47.

UNESCO puts heritage items into three types:natural,cultural and intangible.Natural heritage items are amazing things we find in nature,like the Great Barrier Reef(大堡礁)in Australia or the Amazon in Brazil.The rainforests in the Amazon,for example,have many different types of life in them,including animals that can be found nowhere else.Cultural heritage items are man-made things that show the culture of a county or people. Places like Machu Pichu of ancient Peru and the Palace of Versailles(凡尔赛宫)reflect a particular moment in history.They tell us as much about the past as a history book.Intangible heritage is called“intangible”because it is more difficult to see or touch.It often refers to things people do,not make.For example,the Mediterranean diet(地中海饮食)can teach us many things about civilization,just as the city of Venice can.Whatever form it takes,it is good to know our world heritage is protected for generations to come.23．What does“They”mean in the first passage?A．the Grand Canyon B．the Great Wall of ChinaC．the Tango dance of Argentina D．world heritage24．What can we learn from heritage?A．Many lives.B．Civilizations.C．Earth movements.D．All of above. 25．Whet’s the meaning of the underlined word“intangible”?A．非物质的B．物质的C．可触的D．可见的26．Which of the following is true?A．The rainforests in the Amazon belongs to Cultural heritage.B．Machu Pichu of ancient Peru belongs to naturel heritage.C．The Mediterranean diet belongs to Intangible heritage.D．Our world heritage is protected for ourselves.Scientists have found that the ability of speaking a language is the key to understanding numbers.A research project found that deaf people cannot have a good understanding of numbers if they never learn language symbol（符号）for counting.They found that deaf people from Nicaragua created their own sign language（手语）.So they could talk with others in this unique way.In their research,the first test was asking them to answer that among a10-unit coin,a20-unit coin and a100-unit coin which one bad be most value.Theyknew their money very well because of their own language,so all of them could answer the questions.However,when they heard some bigger numbers,they had difficulty in making a correct gesture with their bands to express these numbers.Then,the researchers gave them some cards with different numbers and asked them to give gestures for the numbers.As a result,the numbers they could express were only up to three.Experts said the reason was that they didn’t study the“count list”of one to ten.Actually, most people learnt it when they were young.Without a set of meaningful words to guide deaf people in the study,they would have difficulty in understanding the logical（逻辑的）meanings of the numbers.For example,they could not understand that“eight”is one larger than“seven”. 27．Why did the deaf people knew their money very well?A．Because they learnt the meanings of money very hard.B．Because they created their own sign language.C．Because they learned language symbols for counting.D．Because they were able to understand larger numbers.28．The underlined word“unique”in paragraph2probably means“________”. A．interesting B．smart C．boring D．special 29．What can we know about the deaf people from this passage?A．They could always give the right answer in the test.B．The number they could express was only three.C．They could not give gestures to express the number five.D．They learned the“count list”of one to ten when they were young.30．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The key to understanding numbers.B．People who can talk to each other with sign language.C．The deaf Nicaraguan people who cannot understand numbers.D．The reason why people can’t understand each other.Susan was a quiet girl and she had few friends.She was a bit nervous when she went to high school,because she was going to live with someone she didn’t know in a town300miles awayfrom home.She had no idea how to make friends in the new environment.However,things were not bad in Susan’s high school life.In her first English class,the teacher asked all the students to talk about themselves.And the final question for each student was “What is your goal(目标)in this class?”.Most of the students said it was to get good grades,pass the exams or something like that,but Susan said that her goal was to make just one good friend.It was quite different.When most of the students sat quietly,one student came to Susan.He held out(伸出)his hand and introduced himself.He asked if she would be his friend,All of the students looked at Susan. She smiled and took his ter,the boy became Susan’s best friend.That day,Susan learned the power of asking for what she wanted,being honest and taking action.31．Susan felt a little________when she went to high school.A．nervous B．excited C．happy D．sad32．How far was it from her school to her home?A．30miles.B．300miles.C．30metres.D．300metres. 33．In the first English class,what did the teacher ask the students to do?A．Make friends.B．Take an exam.C．Talk about themselves.D．Read books 34．What did Susan want to do in that English class?A．Get good grades.B．Pass the exams.C．Make just one good friend.D．Make a lot of friends.35．Which of the following is TRUE?A．Susan had many friends before she went to high school.B．Susan had a plan to make more friends in high school.C．Susan didn’t make a new friend in that class.D．Susan learned the power of asking for what she wanted in that class.Yesterday,Danny ate lunch at a restaurant with his ter that night,he had food poisoning(中毒).He wanted to know how it happened.Danny learned about a few reasons(理由)for food poisoning(中毒).The first reason is bacteria in the food.Bacteria live in a lot of food and they live in meat,eggs and seafood most often.If you cook the food in a right way,you can make the bacteria die in it.Another way to get food poisoning is from parasites(寄生虫).They often live in meat,but could live on vegetables,too.If you don’t cook the food in a right way,these parasites may start living in your body.The third way that you can get food poisoning is by eating the food with toxins(毒素)in it. Sometimes the food gets toxins naturally,and sometimes the toxins come from insect spray(喷雾杀虫剂).So you must wash the food carefully before you eat or cook it.The last way that people get food poisoning is from allergens(过敏原).Some people are just allergic to some food,and they may feel very uncomfortable after eating it.Danny decided he would choose food carefully and cook it in a right way before he ate it in the future.That was important.He never wanted to feel this way again.36．What happened to Danny last night?A．He ate some bad food at a restaurant.B．He was late for a family party.C．He had nothing for dinner.D．He had food poisoning.37．The underlined word“bacteria”probably means“________”in Chinese.A．细菌B．营养C．蛋白D．药物38．How could you stop parasites living in your body from the passage?A．By eating only at home.B．By washing the food carefully.C．By cooking the food in a right way.D．By taking some medicine after meals. 39．Which of the following is TRUE from the passage?A．Parasites live on vegetables most often.B．You may feel excited after having allergens.C．Toxins in the food may come from insect spray.D．Allergens are the main reason for food poisoning.40．What’s the passage mainly about?A．Ways to choose food.B．Reasons for food poisoning.

However, when she first walked past the students in the school, her excitement turned to fear, and then to loneliness（孤独） over the next few days. "Why didn't anyone say 'hi' to me or invite me to his or her lunch table? Is it because of my clothes or my hair?" she wondered. Almost every day during the first week, Anna stayed alone, thinking that there must have been something wrong with her or that nobody saw her at all!What caused Anna's problem? The reason was that nobody knew her. Most people don't like talking with strangers. So it's your job to volunteer to make contact with people who you want to know. The easiest way to catch their attention is to notice them first. Make eye contact with them, and smile at them. When you smile at them, you are doing your best to show your kindness to them, and they are sure to understand that you are saying, "Hey, how's everything going?" In thisway, you are taking the first step towards the road to friendship.When Anna realized this, she started talking to her classmates. Guess what happened? It really worked. She had made two friends by the end of the month.In fact, saying "hi" or making friends with strangers is not hard. And the joy it brings you is really great.

The bike that the service company provides has GPS or Bluetooth on it, and those bikes can be easily unlocked with a smartphone and left anywhere in public. Bike-sharing allows people to borrow a bike from one place and return it at another place easily.In some cities, we can see more and more people riding this kind of sharing-bikes. It's very convenient to use the bikes if you have a smartphone. First, you have to download such an app on your smartphone. Then what you need to do is find a nearest hike through the app, scan the QR code on the bike or connect your phone with the bike over a Bluetooth wireless connection. You will find the bike can be unlocked itself. Then you can enjoy your trip. What's more, the greatest advantage of hike- sharing is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you need to pay one yuan. It doesn't cost so much, does it?At the same time, some people park the hikes in their own homes. Besides, some people don't value the bikes. Now service companies are trying to solve the problems like being stolen.Technology and science have changed our social lifestyles. We have to say bike- sharing brings us more convenience without doubt. And we also hope that people can not only enjoy it but also put it to good use.（1）From the first paragraph, we know ______.A. bike-sharing is invented in ChinaB. sharing-bikes are used by some peopleC. most people in cities don t driveD. sharing-bikes can be borrowed anywhere（2）II you want to use a sharing-bike, you must _________ first.A. have a smartphone and download an appB. download an app and pay for the tripC. unlock the bike and download an appD. find a nearest bike and borrow it from anyone（3）Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A.

Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.One day, my mother was sewing a quilt（缝被子）.I silently sat beside her."Mom, is there love between you and Dad? "I asked in a very low voice.With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said, "Susan, look at this thread（线）.It can hardly be seen, but it's really there. It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love is inside."I couldn't understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.After they were back, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road every day. They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.After two months my father still couldn't walk by himself."Dad, how are you feeling now?

Others grow up small and unhealthy. In search of food, hungry deer move closer to where humans live. They eatfarm crops, vegetables and even trees. Besides, increased numbers of deer near roads can cause traffic accidents.People admire the grace and fast speed of deer. Most people don't want these animals to be hungry and ill. Should people take action to control the growing deer populations?Should People Take Direct Action?Many people think that hunting（打猎） is the best way to control the animal populations. Wildlife managers will see if there's enough food in an area and decide its carrying capacity（容量）. Then hunters with licenses are sent to help control the number of deer. Hunting is usually not allowed in cities or suburbs, however.Some people have the idea to catch the deer and move them to other places. But this methodis expensive and requires finding another place that can accept the deer without breaking the balance of ecosystem（生态系统）.Scientists are also working to develop chemicals（化学药品） to control the birth rate（率）in deer populations. But this plan works for only one year at a time.Should People Take Indirect Action?Some suggest bringing in natural enemies of deer, such as wolves, lions and bears, to areas with too many deer. But these animals could also hurt dogs, cats, and even humans. Other communities have built tall fences（篱笆） around areas to keep out the deer. However, this is impossible for farmers.▲Some people are against any kind of action. They support leaving the deer alone. Animal populations in an area naturally go up and down over time. Doing nothing means that some deer will die of hunger or illness. But finally, the population will reach a size within the carrying capacity（容量） of the environment. So, let nature go its own way.（1）According to the passage, increased numbers of deer can bring to people in the area.A. water pollutionB. traffic accidentsC. serious illnessesD. growing populations（2）Which of the following is the best to fill in the " ▲ " in the passage?A. Should People Do Nothing?B. Should People Protect the Deer?C. Should People Take Special Action?D. Should People Drive the Deer Away?（3）The writer most probably agrees that .A. farmers can build fences to keep the deer outB. people should leave the deer alone in the wildC. hunting is the best way to control the deer populationsD. it's great to catch the deer and move them to other places（4）The writer organizes this passage by .A. telling storiesB. using numbersC. giving opinionsD. describing scenes （场景）7．阅读理解By Anna Matteo28 January, 2019A 3-year-old boy who was lost in the woods for two days is now safe at home with his family. But Casey Hathaway told his rescuers（救援者） that he was not alone in the rainy, freezing coldwoods.

Doctors at the medical center gave Casey some examination. He was then sent to his family on January 25.His mother talked with reporters and thanked everyone who joined the search for her son.

Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap （代沟）.Don't argue （争辩） with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something.You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person.

The answer is between 8 and 10 hours. If you don't get enough sleep at night, you'll have less energy the next day.But the researchers say many children have missed out on 4,500 hours of sleep by the time they are seven years old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms, and busy parents don't read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional “bedtime story” helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms were more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eight hours' sleep. Even losing one hour's sleep a night can mean that children do less well at school.German scientists think that your brain keeps working while you're asleep. To show that they were right, they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and the other group stayed awake. The result? The people who slept worked out the answer more quickly, suggesting their brains had been trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So, make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and you'll be at your best tomorrow!（1）What happens to children at school if they don't get enough sleep?A. They walk more slowly.B. They can relax.C.

You sleep better and get more sleep.C. You have less energy.D. Your brain works better.（5）What did the German scientists' experiment show?A. Sleep helps children learn to read.B. Losing sleep means children don't learn well.C. Your brain works while you are asleep.D. Parents should read bedtime stories.7．阅读理解More and more people pay attention to（注意） their health now. But how to keep healthy and live a healthy life? Here are the three things that you must do.Get enough sleep! Stop staying up late working, studying or playing games. Sleep is very important and it can have an effect on not only your happiness, but also your health. So enough sleep is necessary for us if we want to live a healthier lifestyle.Go outside and move.
