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。

They serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help find out who you are or who you want to become.

一、中考英语阅读理解汇编1.阅读理解It's hard to turn down a tasty banana. They taste good and you don't have to wash them before eating them. However, British scientists say that the fruit may disappear by 2050.One reason for this is climate(气候) change. Scientists at the University of Exeter collected data(数据)from 27 countries and regions that produce 86 percent of the world's bananas. They found that climate change has improved growing conditions in 21 of these countries. In the past 60 years, the average yield(平均产量) has reached 1.37 tons of bananas per hectare(公顷).However, if temperatures keep rising, this advantage will disappear. Ten of the countries, including India, the world's biggest producer of bananas, will produce fewer bananas. By 2050, the fruit may die out.Shouldn't bananas grow more easily if it's hotter outside? In fact, the perfect temperature range for growing bananas is between 24 and 32 C. If temperatures get too high, they will stop growing.Diseases are another danger to bananas. Unlike other crops, the bananas we grow come from shoot cuttings(茎段)rather than seeds. This means that all banana plants have the same genotype(基因型). In other words, if a disease is able to kill one plant, it could kill them all.One serious disease is called Panama. Caused by fungus(真菌) in the soil, it spreads easily. It has spread across South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Australia. If one banana plantation(种植园)suffers from the disease, it will take 30 years until it is able to grow bananas again. Scientists have yet to find a cure for this disease.(1)What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. People's love for bananas.B. The taste of bananas.C. The convenience of eating bananas.D. The future disappearance of bananas.(2)What might happen if temperatures keep going higher?A. More countries will start to grow bananas.B. Bananas will grow better in most countries.C. Bananas will not be able to grow any more.D. Bananas won't be as tasty as before.(3)What does Paragraph 5 tell us?A. What diseases bananas may suffer from.B. How bananas are grown.C. How diseases can easily kill bananas.D. Which diseases can kill bananas.(4)The passage is written to ________.A. offer tips for growing bananasB. explain why bananas may die outC. show the difficulties of growing bananasD. describe bananas' growing conditions【答案】(1)D(2)C(3)C(4)B【解析】【分析】主要讲了香蕉可能消失的原因。

My parents, although sharing my love of music, didn't think it was a good choice that I took up music as a job. Considering my family background, this was understandable. My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years at Spring Hill College in Mobile, and though he was much loved by his students, he didn't earn(挣钱)enough to provide for his large family. As a result of this example in the family, my parents strongly asked me to go to the college instead of a conservatory(音乐学院) of music although I loved my violin and spent most of my spare time practicing.Before my graduation from Columbia, the family ran into some money problems and I felt it was my duty to leave college and take a job. That was why I took a business job, which I always think of as the wasted years. I went into it for money, for being able to help the family. Money is all I go out of it. It was not enough. I felt that life was passing me by.My wish was to save enough to quit(退出)and then go to Europe to study music. I continued to make money, and finally, bit by bit, I earned enough to make myself able to go abroad. The family got out of the trouble and ▲ . I felt like a free man and sailed for Europe. I stayed for four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working and enjoyed every minute of it."Enjoyed" is too soft a word. I walked on air. I really lived. When I broke away from business, it was against the advice of all my friends and family, but if I had stayed in business, I do not believe I would have made a success of living.(1)The writer presented his grandpa's example in order to .A. show how much his grandpa was loved by his studentsB. tell to be a musician wasn't a good choice for the writerC. explain why his parents disagreed him to take up music as a jobD. thank his parents' support for studying in the conservatory of music(2)How did the writer feel when he was taking his business job?A.

I earned so much to support my family.D. I got up early to practice the violin.(4)From the underlined sentence "I walked on air", it can be inferred that the writer .A. couldn't find his place in a new environmentB. couldn't make a success of livingC. felt free because he was doing what he lovedD. felt pity for beginning a new life【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)B(4)C【解析】【分析】文章大意:文章通过爷爷的故事告诉我们为啥他的父母反对他从事音乐工作,到后来真正的做了自己喜欢做的事。

What I always forget, though, is just how useful and powerful technology can be when we want to help others.There is not a single room in my house that does not have some electronic devices (设备)lying around in it. Whenever I am at home, I am almost always using at least one electronic device. If you walked into my living room on any given day, you would find that, first, I have the television on. At the same time, I usually have my laptop resting on my knee, or I will be using my mobile phone. Even when I'm not at home I am always using my phone, and at work or in cafés, I sit down and connect to the local wireless network on my laptop.I must say that I waste a lot of time on the computer and the time I spend on it could be much better spent if I were to take up a little online volunteering.The technology we carry about everywhere can have a great power to do good for the world and to help others and recently I discovered just how much online volunteering there is to do in the world. From using your language skills to do translations, to developing and managing projects and helping with IT work, there is so much that so many people can do to help people in their own countries and across the world. The United Nations, in fact, has a huge page with "Volunteers Recruited" on its website.This work can support the poor and help charities who cannot pay for staff members. Many organizations only require you to work an hour a week﹣some even less. And the support provided by online volunteers can really help make a difference to those in need.(1)From Paragraph 2, we can know that the writer .A. is a computer engineerB. works in a caféC. uses technology a lotD. likes modern music(2)The underlined word" Recruited" in Paragraph 4 means" ".A.

In the past, only a small group of people thought cycling a sport. Now more and more people discover the joy of it.________ Riders share their favourite routes and health tips about cycling on some apps like Xiaohongshu or Sina Weibo. On Xiaohongshu, there are more than 2.5 million posts (帖子) about cycling, and on Weibo, the topic about cycling has been viewed more than 700 million times. A bicycle company says the sales in one of its stores rose 20% to 30%, compared to the same period a year earlier. Cycling activities are also welcomed. According to the Chinese Cycling Association, at least 20 million people have joined in the sport.People turn to cycling as more people care about their health and their demand for outdoor exercise becomes stronger. For people who have begun cycling, the sport seems to provide a good way to run away from the busy city life. It also gives them a stronger sense of being part of the natural environment. Though the sport cycling sometimes costs a lot, many cyclists think spending money on their own bodies is more valuable than on other items. More peopletake part in cycling as cities in China are also planning to build more cycle-only lanes (车道). Several years ago, Beijing started building the city’s first cycle-only lane. Since its opening, the lane has seen a larger daily traffic flow.

That makes poems difficult to write but very interesting to read. They use colours, feelings, experiences, and images to paint a picture in your mind. Let’s have a look at the following Chinese classical poem:On the Stork TowerBy Wang ZhihuanThe sun along the mountain bows,The Yellow River seawards flows,You can enjoy a grander sight,If you climb to a greater height,Translated by Xu YuanchongIn Chinese classical poems, the form is very important: the correct number of lines and the number of words in each line. Poems often follow special models of rhythm(节奏)and rhyme. However, modern poets begin to reject traditional forms and structures(结构)for poems in the 20th century. As a result, most poems today are written in free style, with lines of different lengths.Today many Chinese people are becoming more interested in reading poems, no matter in what language they are written. Translations can be good, but being able to read in the original (最初的)language is best.1.What do the first two lines of the poem On the Stork Tower show?()A.Love.B.Sights.C.History.D.Feelings.2.What does the underlined word “reject” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?()A.Throw away.B.Carry on.C.Agree with.D.Take up.3.What does the writer of the passage probably believe?()A.It is much easier to write classical poems than modern poems.B.People should develop the habit of painting pictures after reading poems.C.Chinese classical poems should follow free style with lines of different lengths.D.No matter how well a poem is translated, some of the spirit of the original work is lost.(E)(2023·江苏宿迁·统考中考真题)Family is very important for everyone, no matter where you are from. So in both East and West, people have festivals to celebrate family reunions(团聚). These festivals include the Mid-Autumn Festival in China and Thanksgiving Day in the US. How are they celebrated and what are the differences? Let’s take a look.Sharing the moonlightThe Mid-Autumn Festival is the second most important traditional festival in China after the Spring Festival. It’s on the 15th day of the eighth month of Chinese lunar calendar. In ancient China, the day was considered as a harvest festival since fruits, vegetables and grain(谷物) had been collected from the fields. All the family got together and had a big dinner. They ate a special festival food-moon cakes and enjoyed the full moon.On that day, the moon is full. The full moon is a symbol for family reunions which mean tuanyuan in Chinese. Now people also celebrate the festival by getting together and having a big dinner.When it gets dark, people look up at the full moon, eating moon cakes and missing friendsand relatives who are far from home. “We wish each other a long life so as to share the beauty of this graceful moonlight, even though miles apart!” wrote Su Shi, a famous Song Dynasty poet.Showing thanksThanksgiving Day is one of the biggest holidays in the US. It’s on the fourth Thursday of November. People visit their friends and relatives to remind themselves that they are lucky to have happiness, health and family and also to have a roof over their heads.In 1621, about 100 English people took a ship, the Mayflower, and arrived in the northeastern US. The winter there was very cold and life was hard. As the American Indians helped them a lot, the English people asked them to have a big meal with then in order to express their thanks. The celebration lasted for three days.Today, people usually have a family meal on Thanksgiving Day. They enjoy delicious food such as pumpkin scorn and a big, golden turkey.There are other traditions on the day. For example, the turkey has a V-shaped bone in the breast. It’s called a wishbone. After roasting(烤), two persons each take one end of the bone. They make a wish and then pull it. If one gets the larger part of the bone, he or she will get good luck.The most important part of Thanksgiving Day is to say “thanks”— this is the spirit of the holiday. People also like to watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV.1.Why did people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in ancient China?()A.Because people could eat moon cakes.B.Because people enjoyed the full moon.C.Because people could get together with relatives.D.Because people had a good harvest from the fields.2.What does the underlined part “to have a roof over their heads” in the passage probably mean?()A.To have somewhere to live.B.To have food to eat.C.To have friends to talk to.D.To have clothes to wear.3.What is the spirit of Thanksgiving Day?()A.To pull the bone.B.To play American football.C.To say “thanks”.D.To watch the Parade.4.What’s the main idea of the passage?()A.The background to the two festivals.B.The introduction to the two festivals.C.The activities of the two festivals.D.The customs of the two festivals.1.Why do people cook toon shoots with eggs according to the passage?()A.To look more colorful.B.To make it taste sweet.C.To balance the strong taste.D.To make it healthy to people.2.What do toon shoots and Indian aster have in common (有共同点) according to the passage?()A.Both of them can be mixed with tofu.B.Both of them are very tender after guyu.C.Both of them are green herbs with usual tastes.D.Both of them can deal with high blood pressure.3.Which of the following dishes might improve people’s eyesight?()A.Toon shoots.B.Shepherd’s purse.C.Indian aster.D.Luhao. 4.What can we infer (推断) according to the tips in the passage?()A.Do not eat the wild vegetables in spring.B.Take the wild vegetables as a main course.C.Store the wild vegetables as long as possible.D.The unknown wild vegetables might be harmful.(G)(2023·江苏无锡·统考中考真题)Pet parrots that are allowed to make video calls to other birds show signs of feeling less isolated, according to scientists.The study, which involved giving the birds a computer that they could use to make video calls, found that they began to engage in more social behaviors including preening, singing and playing. The birds were given a choice of which “friend” to call on a touchscreen computer and the study showed that the parrots that called other birds most often were the most popular choices.Ilyena Hirskyj-Douglas, of the University of Glasgow and a co-author of the study, said that video calls had helped many people feel less isolated in the last few years. She added, “There are 20 million parrots living in people’s homes in the USA, and we wanted to explore whether those birds might benefit (受益) from video calling too. If we gave them the chance to call other parrots, would they choose to do so, and would the experience benefit the parrots and their caregivers?”Their study of 18 pet parrots suggested that there were, indeed, benefits for the birds. In the wild, many species of parrots live in large groups, but as pets they are, kept alone or in a small group. Living alone can cause birds, to develop mental problems, which include rocking, walking back and forth, or self-harming behaviors such as feather-plucking.The parrots first learned to ring a bell and then touch a photo of another bird on the screen of a computer to make a call to that bird, with the help of their owners. In total the birds made 147 calls to each other during the study, while owners took detailed notes on the birds’ behavior and the researchers later reviewed the video footage.Jennifer Cunha of Northeastern University said that the parrots “seemed to know” that they were communicating with other birds. “All the bird owners in the study said they valued the experience, and would want to continue using the system with their parrots in the future,” she said.“I was quite surprised at so many different behaviors,” said Hirskyj-Douglas. “Some would sing, some would play around and go upside down, others would want to show another bird their toys.”1.The main purpose of the study is to find out _________.()A.if parrots can learn to make video calls B.if parrots can benefit from video calling C.why parrots can have so many benefits D.why parrots can develop mental problems 2.What can we learn about the pet parrots?()A.Their way to communicate is singing.B.Most of them used to live in large groups.C.The most popular ones made most calls.D.They can make video calls bythemselves.3.Which word has the closest meaning to “isolated”?()A.amazed B.calm C.scared D.lonely4.The following paragraph can best go after ________.()Video calling could reproduce some of the social benefits of living in a group, according to Rébecca Kleinberger, of Northeastern University and first author of the study.A.Paragraph 1B.Paragraph 2C.Paragraph 3D.Paragraph 4参考答案:(A)1.B 2.A 3.C【导语】本文主要介绍了四种表演。

AHave you ever heard of Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park? It is our own “Amazon”. If you travel there, what can you enjoy?AnimalsThe park is home to Hainan gibbons (长臂猿). They look like monkeys,but have no tails. They eat fruits and leaves from over 130 kinds ofplants. In the 1980s, there were fewer than 10 gibbons in the park.In 2022, there were 36 because people protected their homes and plantedtrees.PlantsThe park is a “live museum”of plants. It is home also to 133 kinds ofnational key protected plants. Cycas hainanensis (海南苏铁) is an example.It has big, feather-like leaves. It grows slowly, but can live as long as 200years. It probably won’t grow flowers or fruits in North China. But inHainan, cycas hainanensis over 10 years old blossom (开花) and bear fruits almost every year.CultureMiao and Li people have lived in the park for generations (世代). Theirhouses look like upside-down boats. They are built above the ground tokeep away animals. Li people make clothes from bark (树皮). Theirhistory of tree bark clothing dates back to about 10,000 years ago. Somepeople clothing.26. What was the population of Hainan gibbons in the 1980s?A. Less than 10.B. More than 30.C.

Travel.C. Health.D. Sports.BBoth my wife and I are running lovers. I usually run onthe track in my neighbourhood. Most people walk on thetrack, so I am faster than them. My speed seems amazing to thewalkers and I often pass by them twenty or more times aroundthe track. This makes me feel proud.One day, a short man came. He didn’t look like much of a runner. I saw him get out of the car and warm up before running when I passed by two walkers. He started running a few metres ahead of me. He was fast but I sped up and managed to catch up with him. I had someone to compete with. But after a lap (圈) , I fell behind him and had great difficulty in breathing. After two laps, my foot began to hurt, so I had to slow down and began to run at my usual speed. This time I could breathe again without sounding like I had a lung disease (肺病) and the pain in my foot went away. In a very short time, he was far ahead. He was too fast for me to follow.That day, I learnt several lessons. In life, there will always be those slower and faster. Some have natural talent (天赋), and some have trained harder. Don’t judge (判断) the capacity of a person by how he or she looks.The point is that we each have our own speed. When we are trying to keep up, we often end up hurting ourselves and being out of breath. Slow down or speed up, but run your race to your best. Don’t run fast when you sho uld be running slowly. Don’t run at all when you should be walking. Don’t walk when you should be running.30. What was the author’s first impression of the short man?A. He was an amazing runner.B. He was an experienced driver.C. He wasn’t good at running.D. He was too proud of himself.31. What happened to the author when he slowed down?A. His breath became much heavier.B.

Keep fit through runningD. Enjoy your own speedCThe 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of Chinapoints out the importance of reading and calls on people to read morebooks, so shared bookhouses have appeared in many places. Readinghas become a trend in our country.A reading campaign (行动) took place in Shenyang in April,2023.Many people took part in it. Li Hong, a girl from a junior high school, said, “My mother and I took part in the campaign because both of us like reading. Books are our necessary furniture in our house. I know a lot about Chinese classic (经典的) works. Reading makes my life colourful and will change my dream into reality (现实). ”Reading is one thing, but knowing how to read and what to read is another.There are mainly three kinds of reading: recreational reading, study-type reading and survey reading. Recreational reading can bring you much fun. You can read at a relaxed speed. Study-type reading usually needs you to read the text very carefully to understand the ideas and details. Survey reading is a way of reading fast to get the main idea or find the information you need.What kind of books should you read? Emerson, a great writer and thinker, had three rules: never read a book that is not a year old; never read any but famous books; never read a book youdon’t like.Good books can lift you to a higher plane (境界). Whatever you read, read with interest, with the whole mind. Try to be a best reader. If you are getting the most out of a book, you will do things more confidently. Reading is rewarding (有益的)!34.

Luckily, I love gardening and my garden helps me relax.For a long time, I guarded the garden of peace and quiet. When the children followed me into the garden, I would expect them to be out of sight (视野). And I would hand out tasks.“Here: you water the tomatoes, you dig the hole, and …” Soon they would be tired, a nd they would leave me to myself.But during a recent spring, while I was working in the garden, my 13-year-old son, Josiah noticed me. He picked up a tool and began helping. Working as a team, we finished the job soon. I appreciated Josiah and kissed him, realizing that I’d enjoyed working with him.One day, when I was picking the peas (豌豆) and having a taste alone, Abby saw me and ran over. I put several peas into her mouth. She just loved how tasty they were.“Mum, I want the others to try them too.”Suddenly, I realized I had been wrong for long. I’d tried to keep the happiness of gardening to myself, and here was a child who couldn’t wait to share with others. “Sure, dear, let’s pick some. We’ll make a wonderful meal.”From then on, I enjoyed all of the garden’s beauties with the children. We brought the vegetables back home, preparing and cooking together, because we knew that everything was better when shared.30.How did Mary White make her garden peaceful and quiet?A.She offered her children some tasks. B.She kept her children digging holes. C.She served her children some tomatoes. D.She taught her children about gardening. 31.What does the underlined (画线的) word “appreciated” probably mean?A.refused B.thanked C.ordered D.educated 32.What do you know about Mary White from the text?A.She found that teamwork was difficult.

D.It is common.Would you try food made of rubbish? When world leaders got together at the UN for a meeting on climate(气候) change, they had a special lunch. The food was made from something that most of us would throw away. There was a salad made of vegetable scraps(剩菜叶). The leaders also had hamburgers made of fruit left over from juicing.The UN said this reminded people about food waste and the bad influence it has on climatechange. “F ood waste is not often noticed in climate change, and that is shameful when so many people are in hunger.” said a government secretary.Most people don’t even realize how much food they throw away every day. Sometimes they cook too much or they don’t use it in time. Every year more than one-third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste, according to the UN. Stop the waste, and the whole world could save $300 billion from wasted food. More importantly, it could also do less harm to the environment.Think about a bag of cheese(奶酪). Before we buy it at the store, people have to raise the cows, deal with the milk, and drive to the shop to sell the cheese. If you throw the cheese away, you have wasted energy, fuel(燃料) and water, which give out greenhouse gases that add to global warming.The UN said if we stop throwing good food away, we could cut down up to 17 million tons of CO₂. The good of that would be the same as taking one in every four cars off the road. 34.Why did the writer think the lunch was special?A.Because the vegetables were made into juice.B.Because the leaders had a salad and hamburgers.C.Because food was cooked from something thrown away.D.Because the lunch was prepared with different fresh fruits.35.What does food waste influence at last?A.Fuel. B.Cars. C.Cows. D.Climate. 36.What can you infer(推断) from the text?A.Even small actions can help make our world better.B.We should buy a bag of cheese from the supermarket.C.Most people have already paid attention to food waste.D.Saving food is more important than driving cars less often.37.Which of the following is the best title of the text?A.Cheese—Healthy for people B.A meeting—Traditional at the UN C.Food waste—Bad for the environment D.Greenhouse gases—Dangerous to the Earth2021年辽宁省沈阳市中考英语试卷三、阅读单选The Great Wall of China was begun in 214 B.C..It was built for preventing the enemies.It is the largest building ever built.

By the 1970s, they had already been endangered. What was causing the number of falcons to drop so quickly?In America, a pesticide, a chemical, called DDT was harming the falcon eggs. Luckily, DDT is no longer used. The number of falcons is rising now.One unusual thing about falcons is that they like to make their nests (巢) in high places. In nature, they often nest on mountaintops and on the sides of cliffs (悬崖). Falcons have also got used to life in cities. They nest on tall buildings and bridges in cities. The height of these nests is from 50 to 200 feet in the air.They also like to return to the same nesting place every year. Both the mother and father falcons help to raise the babies. The mother stays more time in the nest. The father hunts and brings back food for her and the babies.Many people all around the country work very hard to help falcons live to adulthood. There are even video cameras fixed up in many places. This way, people can make sure the birds and their eggs stay protected. Falcons are lucky to have so many people who keep an eye on them. 34.What does the underlined word “pesticide” mean in Chinese?A.流感B.杀虫剂C.枪支D.捕猎网35.According to the text, we know that ________.A.falcons fly so fast that nothing can hurt themB.falcons suddenly died out in the year 1970C.people can’t find falcons’ nests in citiesD.baby falcons are brought up by their patents36.What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of falcons?A.Nervous.

What subject do you worry about the most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can't sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. 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.

Allow me to share some with you.But first, let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States. Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris. It was a huge mistake! It rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley.I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky events. Life in Berkeley is very pleasant and everything is so easy compared to Paris. For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and made the lease(租约)agreement for a flat. What's more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very practical for me.The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class. They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class. In France, students respect the teacher's lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class.The local people in California are in general very nice, open and active. However, I am not totally used to their habits yet. Indeed, I was used to shaking my friends' hands every day in France. During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand of one of my classmates whom I had met th e day before and he told me “I think we already met!”Another funny story happened during the first party I attended: A girl that Imet before came to hug me, I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello. So I kissed her and she seemed a little bit embarrassed.I live a great experience at present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in a program at UC, Berkeley.( )1. According to the writer's advice, before students study in America, they should ________.A. make a lease agreement for a flatB. leave their warm clothes at homeC. pay attention to the local weatherD. prepare a phone as early as possible( )2. When the writer's classmate said “I think we already met!”, he meant ________.A. he and the writer had known each other in FranceB. Americans needn't shake hands when they met againC. he was not used to shaking hands with othersD. the writer had forgotten about their last meeting( )3. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A. His experience at UC, Berkeley.B. The relationship between classmates.C. His advice on studying abroad.D. The difference in attending a class.Passage 4(2018绵阳)Students who get tired of looking at the four walls of a classroom might like to take the nature course being offered by Carvel College again this summer. Groups of about a dozen students each, led by an experienced guide, will go on tenday camping trips to the mountains to study the plants and animals that grow and livethere.Students carry their own things, which include sleeping bags, warm clothing, food and water, and other useful tools. And what do the students do all day? Well, as soon as the sun comes up, they eat breakfast and start climbing up the mountain trail to the next campground, which is five to ten miles away. As the students take notes, the guide points out different plants and animals alongside the trail. The climb is usually over by early afternoon, so the group spends the rest of the day resting or swimming in a mountain lake. Before dinner each night, they all come together and discuss the day's activities.At the end of the course, the students write reports using the information they have collected. But they don't mind at all. What they do mind is leaving the beauty of the wilderness and the good friends they've made to return to their normal lives in the city.( )1. What can the course offer to the students?A. Better grades in tests.B. Free vacations in mountains.C. A different learning experience.D. Better chance to study in Carvel College.( )2. How far does a student have to walk throughout the course?A. About five to ten miles.B. About two hundred miles.C. About fifty to one hundred miles.D. About sixty to one hundred and twenty miles.( )3. What do the students have to do before dinner?A. Wash themselves up in a mountain lake.B. Attend classes by the experienced guide.C. Write about what they see along the trail.D. Review what they learn through discussion.( )4. What can we tell about the course?A. They will change campgrounds everyday.B. The students have to learn all by themselves.C. Pens and books will be useless in the course.D. Carvel College will provide everything for the students.( )5. From the last paragraph we know the students are ________.A. serious with the final reportB. unwilling to go back to the cityC. looking forward to returning homeD. too tired to stay in the course any longerPassage 5(2018漳州)As the saying goes, “If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.” Thisis never truer than when you are trying to master English. Lai Shixiong, a respected English master from Taiwan, has a story to share.Like many nonnative speakers, Lai failed when he first started learning English. When he was in high school, he once got an unbelievably low mark of 7 outof 100 on an English test. He almost gave up on English, but then he entered a military school (军校), where he met a classmate who was good at English.Amazed by his classmate's American accent, Lai decided to start learning English from the beginning. As he put it, “I saw myself as a baby who had juststarted to learn a language.” To correct his pronunciation, Lai practiced phonetic symbols(音标) hundreds of times every day using records.When he was able to pronounce words, Lai said he began to practice dialogues. Not being able to find someone to practice with, Lai created a learning atmosphere(氛围) on his own.“I just talked to myself as if I were in a dialogue,” he said.Lai also thought of ways to improve his skills. He used English to describe everything he saw. He even translated speeches when he went to class meetings at the military school. He also read and listened to English news to learn new expressions.“There is no shortcut to mastering a language. You have to practice,” Lai said. After all, Rome wasn't built in a day.( )1. What should we do if we want to master English according to the passage?A. Keep trying.B. Turn to a teacher.C. Share your story with others.D. Ask a classmate for help.( )2. What's the main idea of the second paragraph?A. Lai met a classmate.B. Lai entered a military school.C. Lai used to be weak in English.D. Lai learned English after school.( )3. Whom did Lai talk to when he practiced dialogues?A. Himself.B. His brother.C. A classmate.D. An English teacher.( )4. How did Lai improve his skills in English?A. By using an old dictionary.B. By reading and listening to English news.C. By pronouncing a new word a hundred times.D. By describing what he saw in English and Chinese.( )5. How do you like Lai Shixiong?A. Easygoing and wise.B. Helpful and successful.C. Kindhearted and honest.D. Patient and hardworking.Passage 6(2018陕西)Reading makes one wise, but many adults seldom read. They say they are too busy to have time to read. Sure. They have work to do. They have families to support. But these are only excuses. The fact is that they haven't got a reading habit. A reading habit isn't something natural. It needs to be trained. And it's never too late to develop a reading habit.Scientists believe proper books are very important for children to develop a good reading habit. A book in rich colours and with simple patterns(图案) such as lines and circles is a good choice for babies of three months old. When they reach six months, they will become interested in simple story books in rich colours.When children get old enough to read by themselves, it's necessary to buy books that are both interesting and right for them to understand. Books which are either too easy or too difficult are not good for kids to keep their reading habits.Only buying books for children isn't enough. For kids, parents are their first teachers. So parents should read books to set an example. Children will follow them. Scientists say imitating the adults is a born skill. And it is the most valuable way for children to learn. This will certainly help them develop a reading habit in the end.( )1. According to the writer, many adults seldom read because they ________.A. don't have enough timeB. have to work all the timeC. haven't got a reading habitD. have to support the family( )2. The underlined word “imitating” here probably means ________.A. copyingB. readingC. testingD. missing( )3. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. story books are better than books in coloursB. a reading habit comes from certain trainingC. a threemonthold kid likes simple storiesD. too easy books help keep a reading habitPassage 7(2018山西)Let children learn to judge(判断) their own work. A child doesn't learn to talk by being corrected all the time. If he is corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the differences between the language he uses and the language others use. Little by little, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's.In the same way, children learn to do all the other things without being taught —to walk, run, climb or ride a bicycle. They compare their performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them himself. We do it all for him. We thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him work out with the help of other children if he wants it.If it is a matter in math or science, give him the answer book. Let him correcthis own papers. Why_should_we_teachers_waste_time_on_such_daily_work?Our job should be to help the children when they tell us that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must learn, how to measure(估量) their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.Let them get on with this job in their ways. School teachers can offer help if they ask for it. Some parents and teachers are worried that the children might fail to learn something that they will need to get in the world. Don't worry! If it is important, they will go out into the world and learn it.( )1. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by ________.A. being always correctedB. following adults' adviceC. doing as other people do( )2. The writer thinks teachers in school should ________.A. encourage students to learn from each otherB. teach students how to get the answers directlyC. tell students what is wrong as often as possible( )3. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph means ________.A. teachers can't correct students' papersB. teachers needn't waste time teaching students in classC. teachers should help students improve their learning ability( )4. We can infer(推断) that ________ from the passage.A. students can face any challenge easilyB. students can learn a lot in the real lifeC. students can grow up without others' help( )5. The best title of the passage may be ________.A. Let Us Teachers Stop WorkingB. Let Children Learn by ThemselvesC. Let Parents Understand Their Kids专项训练六语言学习Passage 1 【主旨大意】本文是一篇应用文。
