People in South Korea's Jeju Island show historical events with ______ .A.teddy bearsB. toy carsC. heroesD. pictures Passage 19In the eyes of many foreigners,Chinese are the best hosts(主人) and the worst guests in the world. They're not really bad guests, but because the guest host relationship in China is much different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And western hosts sometimes look rude (粗鲁的)in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home,there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife's mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, ''Is it OK if I smoke?" But, don't be surprised if they say, "No, you can't smoke. " In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.In China, you probably won't need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house,try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.( ) 1. Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the ______ in the world. A.best B. worst C. most natural D. most different ( )2. When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often ______ .A.buys some fruitB. feels like a godC. wants some giftsD. takes a cup of tea( )3. If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house,what will he probably Say?A.It's OK if you smoke here.B. Let's smoke together.C. Sorry, you can't smoke here.D. Smoking is a bad habit.( ) 4. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase "adapt to" in the passage ?A.think back toB. get used toC. look forward toD. keep close toPassage 20A new report shows what life might be like in 100 years from now. It describes skyscrapers that are much taller than today's buildings, underwater 'bubble' cities and holidays in space. The report is from a company. It asked experts(专家) on space and architecture, as well as city planners, to give their ideas on the life in 2116. They said the way we live, work and play will be totally different to how we do these things today. The experts used the Internet as an example.They said that 25 years ago, people could not imagine how the Internet and smartphones would change our lives. The Internet has completely changed the way we communicate, learn and do daily things. The experts said the changes in the next century would be even more unbelievable.Researchers questioned 2,000 adults about the prediction (预言) they thought weremost likely(很可能的)to happen in the future. They predicted that in the future, few people will go to an office but will work from home and have work meetings online. People will have highly developed 3-D printers that will let you download(下载)a design for furniture or a food recipe and then' print' the sofa, table or pizza at home. There will also be less need for visits to the doctor. We will all have a home health instrument that will tell us what the problem is and give us treatment. We will also be going into space for holidays and to get resources that we have used up on Earth. A prediction that is missing is whether people will need to study English.( )1. The writer uses the example of the Internet in Paragraph l to showA. the Internet was often usedB. the Internet has developed fastC. people will not believe the changesD. technology will change people's lives( )2. With the help of highly developed 3-D printers, a way to get a sofa in 2116 is to .A. buy one in a shopB. ask somebody to make oneC. download a design and s 'print' oneD. design and make one by oneself( )3.

I was in the eighth grade at the time,and we were having a final test. In the test, the girl sitting next to me said something to me, but I didn’t understand. So I got closer to her and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers could not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test paper had been turned in,the teacher asked me to stay in the classroom when all the other students were out. Then she began to talk to me about honesty and emphasized(重点强调) the fact that when people do something dishonest,they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had talked to me about all those things.The next day, I realized that the teacher thought I had cheated in the test. When she saw me talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen,but she said it seemed very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen when she talked to me after the test. She continued to believe that I had cheated in the test.(1)(2.5 points)The story took place exactly ______.A. in the teacher’s officeB. in the classroomC. in the playground(2)(2.5 points)Why did the boy get close to his classmate during the test?A.

They find other criminals by using science and their computers. When there is a bank robbery(抢劫),the police first look through their computers for the names of the bank robbers that they know about. Then they go and talk to any of these robbers who are not in prison(监狱).They ask them where they were when the robbery happened. If any of these people cannot give a good answer,the police will often use science to find out if one of them is the robber.Many criminals leave something of themselves at the places of the crimes like a fingerprint or a hair. Or they take something away on their shoes or clothes,like dirt or animal hair. If they leave behind some of their blood or their hair or a piece of skin,it will have their DNA inside it.Everyone’s DNA is different and their fingerprints are also different. So,if a criminal cuts himself during a robbery or leaves his hair,or even a small piece of skin,scientists can find out what his DNA is. The police can then ask the person they think is the robber to give them his hair or some blood and see if it has the same DNA. Many criminals are in prison today because of this kind of evidences.根据上文内容判断正误。

2020年中考英语专题分类卷题型二阅读理解(判断正(T)误(F)型阅读卷二)Passage 11The American writer Sally Seaman tells young students some smart ways to find friends. Sally says founding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed (种子) and take care of it to make it grow.First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient. For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend could listen to your complaints (抱怨)and do his or her best to help you. To make a friend, you can't be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives.But things can not always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. If he or she doesn't want to talk,you can write a letter. There are three steps to be friends again: Tell him or her how you are feeling, say what your friend has done wrong and explain(解释) why you did this or that.Remember that friendship is one of the most important things in your life.( )1. Friendship is like a tree.( )2.To make a friend, you should make each other happy and share your lives.( )3. A good friend should have money and good looks.( )4.

No. Before post cards, people liked sealed (密封的)letters.The idea for the first decorated(装饰) post card came to John P. Charlton in 1861. He thought a simple card with decorations would be a great way to send a note. Then in the late 1800s,post cards with pictures appeared. By law,people had to wnite their nol,e on the front-on the picture! The back was only for the address. Several years later, England allowed a divided-back post card. Then people could write their note on the back left side and put the address on the right. During the early 1900s,the golden age of post cards, picture post cards became a craze of the world. In 1908,Americans alone mailed over 677million post cards. Today,post cards are the third most popular collection in the world after stamps and coins.( )1.

A police car followed her, and the policeman in it saw her pass a red light without stopping.When Mrs. Jones came before the policeman,he looked at her seriously and said that she was too old to drive a car, and that her eyes had probably become weak with old age, so she had not stopped at the red light.After the policeman finished his words, Mrs. Jones, without saying a word, opened the big handbag she was carrying and took out her sewing(针线活). She chose a needle(针) with a very small eye, and threaded(穿线)it at her first try.When she had successfully done this, she took the thread out of the needle again and handed both the needle and the thread to the policeman,saying," Now it is your turn. You drive a car and you must see clearly. "The policeman took the needle and.tried to thread it. After trying for six times, he still didn't succeed, so Mrs. Jones wasn't punished.

The policeman said that Mrs. Jones was too old to drive a car.( )4. Mrs. Jones chose a needle with a big eye and threaded it at her first try.( )5.

Thang-ga paintings show Tibetan people's lives. In recent years, Thang-ga paintings have caught the public's attention. At the same time, the Chinese govemment has aLso tried hard to protect the art.The colors of Thang-ga paintings look wonderful and special. Because of the special environment of Tibet and the excellent skills of artists, the paints(颜料)used in Thang-ga paintings are different from other paints.

The skills of artists have been already lost, so it is difficult to find the traditionalThang-ga paintings.Passage 15As we know,all living things have to eat food. For a man,a tiger, a fish,a bird, or even a worm, food is necessary.Generally speaking, all living things are sure to die without food. In every part of the world,many different kinds of animals share living places and live in communities(群落) together. They are connected in a food chain(链) .Within a food chain, some living things are producers and some are consumers(消费者). Plants are producers because they use sunlight,soil and other things to make their own food. Animals are consumers because they have to eat other animals or plants.There are four different kinds of consumers in the animal kingdom. A carnivore is an animal that only eats other animals. An herbivore is an animal that only eats plants. An omnivore is an animal that eats both plants and animals. A scavenger is an animal that eats dead animals.Look at the picture.It is an example of a food chain. The food chain shows the order that animals eat each other in a community.In the picture, you can see what animal or plant is food for another animal. See?

" Mason, a volunteer said.National V olunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity ( 机会) to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization's expectations (期望). Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.The following tips can help if you have some of these worries:* Start out slowly, don't add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone's life.* Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.* Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.* Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization's expectations.* Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.* Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn't work, don't give up and you'll surely find the right opportunity.Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people's lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience,"...little things can change a person's life. "( )5.

' You have the wrong body for ballet,' it says,and at thirteen,you are too old. 'This was one of the most popular advertisements (广告) of 2014 and it describes American Ballet Theater's principal (主要的) dancer Misty Copeland.This was not a real letter. But Copeland says it is very similar to letters from her childhood. While many dancers start at the age of three, Copeland only began to study ballet in 1995 as a thirteen-year-old. People often told her that she was too old, or that she didn't have the perfect body type ( She is only 157 cm tall).Her family moved a lot, and it was sometimes difficult for her to attend ballet classes. But Copeland loved dancing and did not want to give up. She stayed withher ballet teacher during the week and spent Lime with her family only at the weekend.

【备战2024中考英语】中考英语考前冲刺重点题型专项突破专题02 阅读理解热点话题之中国传统文化中国元素20篇(含答案解析)精选2024年最新中考模拟试题Passage 1(2024·湖南长沙·二模)Sui Xin and her friends spent an afternoon roasting nuts and fruits around a coal stove (炉子) while enjoying freshly boiled white tea. This traditional practice of boiling tea has been described in many ancient Chinese art works. Recently, it has become a popular way for the young to run away from the busy life. It also gives young people of today a chance to get to know more about Chinese tea culture.Boiling tea over coal stove has always been part of people’s lives, especially during cold winters. To promote tea culture among the young, traditional teahouses have turned into new-style ones to meet the tastes of young people. The decoration (装饰) of some stores shows a combination (结合) of traditional Chinese styles and youthful design, such as Heytea’s Zhongguancun store in Beijing. Tea makers and modern teahouses are also trying to introduce tea culture to more people by creating new drinks and related (相关的) products to highlight local cultures and history. The drinks and products do catch a lot of people’s attention.Sun Xuling, a co-founder of Theatre Tea, noticed that there has been a clear increase in people’s understanding of Chinese tea in the past two years. To meet the need of young people, Theatre Tea is planning on building a tea experience store, which will give customers chances to try different ways of making tea and to learn more about tea culture.The exploration of new combinations between traditional tea culture, pop culture, and modern life is an exciting and important trend (时尚)in China.

The headdress is known as zanhua. Zanhua was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008.As a child, Huang Rongbing would watch his mother comb (梳理) her long and thick hair. After forming a bun at the back of her head, she would put colorful lowers into her hair, the 34-year-old recalled.The headdress inspired Huang’s career (职业) choice. In 2016, heand his older sister opened a salon. There, tourists can get their hair styled in the Xunpu tradition and have their photos taken. “We have been fully booked and now there are over 200 businesses offering services to dress tourists with a zan hua,” said Huang.The increase in tourist visits has made Huang happy. That’s because it not only keeps the business busy but also helps spread the history and culture behind zanhua headwear.After going through the full zanhua experience, Hu Titi, one of Huang’s customers, even brought zanhua culture to Paris in France last year. Under the Eifel Tower, she shot photos and videos of herself dressed in traditional Chinese clothes with a zanhua in her hair.Huang said the women of Xunpu are hard-working, warm-hearted and brave. They are famous for catching the best seafood. “When they put a zanhua on their head, they express their wish for happiness.

However, there are likely to be many surprises along the way. We would like to prepare you for, and even warn you of, the main differences between eating and drinking in China and in the West.Be prepared for your Chinese host placing food in your bowl, usually without even asking. The host will often put chicken legs or other parts of the meal in the guest’s bowl. Though Westerners may see this as interfering (干涉) with one’s independence and personal space, it is a sign of hospitality (好客) in China.Though in the West it is sometimes considered rude to put one’s elbows on the dining table, this is quite acceptable in China, especially when eating noodles. However, you may want to avoid this in some restaurants. Using your own antiseptic wipes (消毒湿巾) may help to put your mind at ease in some situations.In China it is also common practice to spit things out on the table or the floor. However, in more upper-market restaurants in China or in the West, people usually use one of the methods below rather than spitting. Using chopsticks, forks, or tissues (餐巾纸) is a polite way around the problem. You might want to ask for a side plate or an extra bowl for the bones (骨头), etc. Be warned if seeing piles of things that came out of someone’s mouth may put you off your food. You may want to order disheswith no bones.We realize Westerners usually come to China to experience things you don’t have at home. Our custo mers usually want to eat different things. If you want to enjoy Chinese food and experience the eating and drinking in China, see our recommended (被推荐的) China tours.9.What can we infer from the paragraph 2-3?A.It’s a sign of hospitality in China when the host puts a chicken leg in your bowl.B.Chinese hosts want to interfere with your personal space when they place food in your bowls.C.Westerners usually put their elbows on the table.D.Chinese always put their elbows on the dinner table.10.What does th e underlined word “spit” in paragraph 4 mean?A.扔掉B.吐出C.收拾D.发泄11.Which one is more unacceptable for westerners when eating something with bones?A.Asking for a side plate.

Can you guess what they are used for? Are they toys? Well, if you think so, think again. These cute “rabbits” are actually huabobo. It has been a popular traditional food in ShandongProvince for more than 300 years.Usually, huabobo is four or even six times bigger than mantou. It has become a necessary part of some important events. Local women use tools like knives, scissors and pens to shape the dough (生面团) into ducks, dragons, peaches, etc, before having them steamed. Then they color them. Their bright and beautiful colors are generally considered to express good wishes.For example, huabobo in the shapes of rabbits and tigers is usually given to children to express the wish that a boy will be as strong as a tiger and a girl as lovely and clever as a white rabbit. And huabobo in the shape of yuan yang represents the wish that a newly-married couple will live happily together to an old age.Huabobo is normally sweet in taste. The way to make huabobo has been passed down from generation (一代人) to generation in Shandong Province.Huabobo tastes good, but most huabobo shops only serve it locally. That detail caught the attention of Zang Chaiyuan, a 25-year-old girl from Yantai. She wanted to introduce huabobo to more people.Zang’s love for huabobo has also led her to create new shapes. She also uses natural fruit and vegetable juice to color huabobo. What’s more, she has found a way to store huabobo for over two months, making it more convenient to send it to other cities.Using her creative works, Zang has managed to breathe new life into the traditional huabobo, allowing more young people to understand and taste this traditional food.13.What purpose does Paragraph 1 serve in the passage?A.To introduce a new topic for discussion.

It can make them feel bad both in their bodies and minds. Some researchers wanted to see if Tai Chi, a special kind of exercise that uses slow movements to help both body and mind, could help people with fibromyalgia feel better. They studied 226 people with fibromyalgia for a year. Some did regular (常规) exercises, and others did Tai Chi, which can be done by anyone, no matter their physical limits.Before starting, the researchers checked how much pain and stress each person had.

The researchers checked on them every month. They also asked how much pain and other problems the patients had in the beginning, after 12 and 24 weeks, and after the whole year.The results showed that the Tai Chi groups, especially those who practiced for 24 weeks, had less pain than the regular exercise groups. The Tai Chi groups also felt less stressed and were better at dealing with their problems. They attended their Tai Chi classes more often.Tai Chi is about moving slowly to exercise all parts of the body.It helps with balance and controlling movements. It also helps with feelings and behavior. The researchers said, “Tai Chi helped patients with fibromyalgia feel better in their minds and bodies, which might be better for them in the long run.”Many patients have also said that Tai Chi helps them feel better.

But in the last 10 to 15 years, tastes and need for special and high-grade coffees appeared, especially from local growers and shops.

题型二阅读理解(任务型阅读)1-10Passage 1(河北)Artificial intelligence( AI)(人工智能)is growing rapidly. We are living in a world that depends more and more on AI. AI is a group of technologies that help machines get, understand and use information to do tasks.AI's recent developments have got a lot of social attention. Some people have welcomed AI because it makes things possible. For example, AI will have a big influence on areas like medicine and engineering. But this attention has also produced a lot of fear. Especially, many workers are worrying that AI could make them lose their jobs.According to a recent study, nearly five percent of jobs will disappear because of AI. In some industries,AI is already doing the work that people used to do, such as assembling (装配)cars, digging the coal and lifting goods. Self- driving cars and trucks controlled by AI will also take away the driver's jobs in the future.On the other hand, AI will also create many new jobs for people. More people will be needed to write programmes for AI systems(系统)and they will set up and work on them, too. Meanwhile, jobs that require feelings, excellent communication skills with people will not be replaced(取代)by AI. These includes jobs in fields like teaching, nursing and personal training.AI is here. It is changing how people live and work in many ways. That makes AI important to watch, not to fear.1、2题完成句子;3题简略回答问题;4题找出并写下第二段的主题句;5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。

最新英语中考英语阅读理解20(附带答案解析)(word)1一、初三英语阅读理解(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解"Without music, life would be a mistake, "famous German philosopher(哲学家)Friedrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some American schools have cut music classes to control budgets(预算).For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired over 1, 000 teachers. Among them, 10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That's partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn't tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often. However, learning music is beneficial(有益的)in many ways.When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth K. Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode(解码)them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music:Einstein played the violin and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.(1)Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ____.A. they were too difficult to learnB. students in the US weren't interested in musicC. the schools wanted to control budgetsD. there weren't enough music teachers in the US (2)In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined word "them" refer to(指代)?A. Students in Chicago.B. Public schools.C. Parents in Chicago.D. Fired teachers.(3)How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.(4)What's the writer's opinion according to this passage?A. Music is as simple as it looks.B. Music classes should be cut in some schools.C. Music is a big part of our lives.D. Music isn't a very important life skill for us.【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)B(4)C【解析】【分析】本文介绍了很多地区削减了音乐课以控制预算,这是不合适的,因为音乐在许多方面都是有益的。

2020年中考英语专题分类卷题型⼆阅读理解(判断正(T)误(F)型阅读卷⼀)(含答案)2020年中考英语专题分类卷题型⼆阅读理解(判断正(T)误(F)型阅读卷⼀)Passage 1(陕西)Now,it seems that artificial intelligence (⼈⼯智能)is becoming more and more popular in our life, and it has greatly influenced the ways we live, work and play. Can you imagine that you can play table tennis with a robot one day?Recently,a scientist has invented a special robot that can be a table tennis coach. That means people can practice table tennis not only with humans but also with a robot.Named Forpheus,the smart table tennis robot is quite special. It can study the movements of human players and the speeds of the ball. In this way,it can exactly judge(判断) the players' skill levels (⽔平) . Then it uses the information to change the ways to play. If the players are just beginners,Forpheus will play in a slow and easy way, but if the players are better ones, the robot will play in a faster and more difficult way. What's more, while playing, it encourages players to try their best with words like "Good job!", "Come on!" and so on. At the same time, it gives some good advice to improve their skills. So it is both a good partner and a clever coach.` Science and technology is developing quickly these days and it's hard to imagine what will happen in the future.

Or during a seating arrangement (安排)in your class,when you are afraid to sit next to someone you don't like,you end up sharing the desk with him or her.This is what Murphy's Law tells us: If things can go wrong,they will go wrong. But is it true?Of the studies about Murphy's Law,the most famous one is the buttered toast (烤⾯包⽚)phenomenon (现象) :One toast with butter falls,it lands butter- side down most of the time.To prove this, Robert Matthews did a lot of experiments with more than 1,000 British school kids in 2001.In the first experiment,each student put a piece of buttered toast on a plate,let it fall off 20 times and noted which side itlanded on. Of almost 10,000 experiments,toast landed butter-side down 62 percent of the time.But you may ask: Is it the butter that plays a role? Here comes Matthews' second experiment.This time,instead of butter,the toast had a letter "B"written on one side. It still landed 58 percent of the time on the B-side. This proved that Murphy's Law is true: If the toast can land butter-side down,it will do so.Matthews did another experiment. When students threw the toast from a height of 2. 5 metres,the toast landed butter-side down only 47 percent of the time."Toast lands butter-side down because humans aren't tall enough to let it land any other way," Matthews said.( )1. According to Murphy's Law,in an English class,if you don't want to be questioned by the teacher, you may end up failing answering the questions.( )2.In the first experiment of buttered toast, we know the toast landed butter-side down about 620 times.( )3. If the toast can land butter-side down,Murphy's Law is true.( )4. In the first two experiments,either the butter or the letter "B"plays a role.( )5. The passage is mainly talking about Murphy's Law depends on people's mentalstate (⼼理状态) .Passage 6(绥化)Do you have a nickname(呢称)? Most of us do by our looks, clothing, or personality. But for cities, the meaning of their nicknames has much more than that.Many big cities have nicknames, such as New York-The Big Apple,London-TheGreat Smog, and Rome-The Eternal(永恒的) City. Why do cities have such nicknames?In the 1920s,there were many races in New York. People called the prizes of these races apples. Writer John J. Fitz Gerald first called New York the Big Apple, because New York is the place that many people dreamed of going to for the biggest prize of all.For Rome, as the name suggests, the answer is simple, Romans believed that no matter what happened to the world, Rome would go on forever. Rome has been an important center of power for more than 2,000 years.As for London, in the Victorian period, it had problems with its air. Later in 1952,serious air pollution made 10,000 people fall ill. But now the air of London has become better.Does that sound interesting? Does your city have a nickname?( )1. Most of us get our nicknames only by our looks.( )2. The Great Smog is the nickname of London.( )3. The nickname of New York was given by Writer John J. Fitz Gerald.( )4. Rome has been an important center of power for 2, 000 years.( )5. Later in 1952,the air of London became better.Passage 7(陕西)Have you ever thought about making a bicycle that you dream of? Some creative people have invented some special bicycles. Here are three of them.BambikesBambikes are produced in a company in Philippines. They are made of an unusual kind of bamboo and other materials like metal and a local plant. They are very strong. And they are a perfect combination (结合) of the greenest building material and common bicycles. By making bambikes, the company offers jobs to the local people. Besides, it provides money for some students in its community to pay for their study. To continue the production, the company plants more bamboo than it cuts. The heaviest bicycleA German cycling lover, Frank Dose, has recently made the world's heaviest bicycle with big old wheels and lots of other waste materials. He created it just because of a bet (打赌) he made with his friend. The bicycle weighed l.08 tons.It broke the world record of its kind in weight. Frank said his bicycle was surprisingly easy to ride although it had a huge size and weighed a lot. He rode it in front of 5 ,000 people for over 100 meters to prove it.Twisted (变形的)bicyclesTwo brothers in France created a bike that looks strange to ride and twists in the middle. Riders can make tight turns (急转弯). The brothers say the bicycle is hard to ride so it can stop people from stealing it. In fact,it isn't as hard to control as you may think.It takes a day or two to get used to the crazy way of riding. It's amazing. So far,there have been 30 0f the bicycle,but theyare not for sale yet.( )1.

He always dreamed of weaker animals bowing before him.One day, Mouse ran through the jungle and tripped over Lion's huge paws. "How dare you wake me up! " he shouted angrily. Lion grabbed (抓住)Mouse with one paw. "I'm hungry now, and you'll be my delicious meal. " he said.Mouse cried out, "King Lion, please spare (饶恕) me!If you let me live, will always remember your kindness. And some day, I might be able to help you. "" How could such a powerless little mouse ever help me?"That thought made Lion laugh so much that he decided to let Mouse go. A week later, Lion was walking through the jungle on the way to his favorite tree when he stepped onto a hunter's net. The net scooped (勾)him up. No matter how he twisted and turned, he couldn't escape.When Mouse heard Lion's frightened shouts, he ran to help. Mouse quickly chewed (咬)through the ropes to make a hole in the net. Soon, Lion moved out and was free. Lion looked down at the little mouse. "Thank you for saving my life. " said Lion,smiling his widest smile. "I was wrong. You are not a powerless little mouse. You are a great friend ! " ( )1. Lion liked being King of the jungle best.( )2. One day, Lion grabbed Mouse with his two huge paws.( )3. Mouse said he could help Lion when Lion was in trouble.( )4.

But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful(压力大的)."For people who are worried about math, posture (姿势)makes a big difference," Erik Paper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That's right – sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math exam while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的)posture, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.Slumping over is a defensive(戒备的) posture. It can bring about bad memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly, Paper said.Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit(受益)from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult, Science Daily reported.Good posture isn't just helpful for taking math exams. Sportspeople, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more certain and focus better.(1)What posture can make people feel less stressed during math exams?A. Sitting up straight.B. Hanging your head.C. Lying on your back.D. Raising one hand.(2)What did the scientists ask the college students to do during the test?A. To do sit-ups.B. To count numbers.C. To think carefully.D. To sit in different postures.(3)How many students in the test benefited from the better posture?A. All the 125 students.B. Less than half of them.C. 56 percent of them.D. None of the students.(4)The fourth paragraph is written to explain .A. why slumping over makes exams harder to doB. why slumping over is bad for one's healthC. why some people slump over during examsD. why people are nervous during math exams(5)Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Slump over to Take ExamsB. Sit up to Do MathC. Better Posture for Nervous StudentsD. Good Advice for Better Exams【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)C(4)A(5)B【解析】【分析】本文介绍姿势不仅有助于参加数学考试。

Four.Passage 7(2018 .达州)In recent years, a number of Chinese technological innovations (科技~J新)have been making waves around the world. Among them, four stand out. They are known as "four new great inventions" of modem China. They have made our daily lives more convenient.High-speed trainsChina created its first high-speed railway line in 2008. Since then, the number of passenger trips has grown by over 30 percent every year. By 2016,more than 5 billion trips had been taken on China's bullet trains (高铁), according to Xinhua News Agency.China is currently working on the next-generation bullet trains that will have a top speed of 400 kilometers per hour. By 2020, one-fifth of the country's 150, 000-km railway network will be used by high-speed trains. This network will link more than 80 percent of major cities across China, said Xinhua.Mobile paymentMobile payment is turning China into a "cashless society" led by the third-party payment companies like Alipay. For example, instead of paying by cash,customers now pay for goods simply by typing a short password into Alipay app on their mobile devices.Users can also pay their bills through Alipay, such as their water and electricity bills. Alipay also supports cross-border (跨境的) online and in-store payment, which allows users to buy things on international websites and apps.Shared bikesShared bike services started in Western countries. But China has surprised the world with how quickly it has adopted dockless(无桩的)shared bikes.Unlike traditional bike-sharing method, dockless bikes allow users to simply pick up or park a bike on the street through GPS and smartphone apps.To unlock a bike, you just need to scan a QR code on a shared bike with a smartphone app. After you finish riding, you can park it at available parking areas, lock it and pay for ride through mobile payment services.Online shoppingWith around 751 million internet users, China has been the world's largest and fastest-growing online shopping market.Online shopping now accounts fo r 15.5 percent of total retail sales in China, according to Xinhua. Thanks to lower costs and fewer licensing requirements(执照要求) , it's easier for sellers to open an online shop in China than a brick-and-mortar shop (实体店) .It also helped to create jobs of rural areas.In 2016, online shopping created more than 20 million jobs in rural areas, with over 8.1 million running their own online shops, said Xinhua.( )5. What is known as "four new great inventions" of modern China?A. GPS, Smartphone apps, High-speed trains and Online shopping.B. Mobile payment, Shared bikes, Online shopping and High-speed railway network.C. Online shopping, Short password, High-speed railway network and Mobile payment.D.High-speed trains, Mobile payment, Shared bikes and Online shopping.( )6. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. After you use shared bikes, you can park them everywhere.B. When users pay their water and electricity bills, they only pay them by cash.C.

It is a scenic (戏剧的)art integrating music,performance,literature,aria,and face painting.Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modem play; in a dance drama, the dancer has no speaking role and does not sing either. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment which includes spoken parts, singing, dancing and acrobatics.In addition to its presence in China, Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mer Lanfang,one of the most famous performers (表演者) of all time, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries."You will be puzzled(困惑) all the way through and a little bored from time to time; but you will be charmed and interested.

拓展训练2020年中考英语专题分类卷题型二阅读理解(选择形阅读)16-20 Passage 16With the development of technology, WiFi is becoming more and more popular and important in people's daily life. But have you ever experienced it?Just imagine what life will be like if there is no Internet. Maybe you won't be able to talk with friends, play video games or search for information for your homework on the Internet.But in fact, only one third of the world's population are able to get information on the Internet.

They're not really bad guests, but because the guest host relationship in China is much different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests. And western hosts sometimes look rude (粗鲁的)in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife's mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, ''Is it OK if I smoke?" But, don't be surprised if they say, "No, you can't smoke. " In ourculture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.In China, you probably won't need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house,try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.( ) 1. Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the ______ in the world.A.bestB. worstC. most naturalD. most different( )2. When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often ______ .A.buys some fruitB. feels like a godC. wants some giftsD. takes a cup of tea( )3.

What is the meaning of the underlined phrase "adapt to" in the passage ?A.think back toB. get used toC. look forward toD. keep close toPassage 20A new report shows what life might be like in 100 years from now. It describes skyscrapers that are much taller than today's buildings, underwater 'bubble' cities and holidays in space. The report is from a company.
