Y ou don’t say!” I was 4 , I thought, perhaps this is not a 5 topic．Well, I’d 6 change the topic．So I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall?7 the way, have you ever 8 there?”“Certainly, everyone back home will 9 me if I leave China without seeing 10 ．It was great．”I said, “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world．It is a place of 11 ．” Soon I was interrupted again by his words, “ 12 !” I couldn’t13 asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn’t ask you to do 14 ”, he answered, gently surprised．I said, “Didn’t you say ‘You don’t say’?”Hearing this, the Englishman 15 to tears．He began to 16 , “‘You don’t say’ actually means ‘really?’．It is an 17 of surprise．Perhaps you don’t pay attention 18 English idioms．”Then I knew I had made fool of 19 ．Since then I have been more 20 with idioms．1.A.though B.when C.if D.as2.A.look B.meet C.pick up D.find out3.A.walk B.talk C.play D.go4.A.pleased B.angry C.afraid D.surprised5.A.proper B.strange C.safe D.polite6.A.to B.better C.not D.like7.A.On B.In C.All D.By8.A.gone B.visited C.seen D.been9.A.look at B.think of C.send for ugh at10.A.it B.them C.anything D.something11.A.fun B.interest C.business D.mountain12.A.Really B.Good C.You don’ t say D.You are right13.A.be B.help C.think D.do14.A.this B.so C.anything D.me a favorughed B.cried C.moved D.came16.A.explain B.shout C.prove D.say17.A.experience B.expression C.explanation D.example18.A.for B.to C.at D.in19.A.me B.myself C.him D.somebody20.A.helpful B.popular C.careful D.satisfiedAToo many people want to be their friends,but they don’t give friendship back.That is why some friendship don’t last long.To have a friend,you must learn to be one.You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules:be honest;be generous;be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts.Friends must be able to trust one another.If you do not tellthe truth,people usually find out.If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest,you may lose friend’s trust.Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow.You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes.Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feeling.These can be very valuable to a friend.They tell your friend what is important to you.By sharing them,you help your friend know better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and helping with a problem.Something may go wrong at school.Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve.Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem.So to be a friend you must listen and understand.You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are ever exactly alike.But all true friendships have three things in common.If you plan to keep your friends,you must practice honesty,generosity,and understanding.1.Some friendships don’t last very long because ________.A.here are too many people who want to make friendsB.some people receive friendship but don’t give friendship backC.those who give others friendship receive friendship from othersD.they don’t know friendship is something serious2.According to the passage honesty is ___________.A.something countableB.the base of friendshipC.as important as moneyD.more important than anything else3.Which of the following isn’t mentioned(提及) in the passage?A.Always tell your friends the truthB.Sharing your mind with your friends is of great valueC.Discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problemD.A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend4.The best title of this passage is __________.A.Honesty is the Best PolicyB.A Friend in Need is a Friend IndeedC.How to be FriendD.Three Important Points in LifeBMany Chinese students who have learnt English for more than ten years are still unable to speak English very well when they meet a foreigner. They seem to have mastered the basic language structure, but a conversation in English will make them feel uneasy. They are afraid that other people might find out their mistakes.I t’s uncommon that many students who are bad speakers of English can write English perfectly. This proves that they are unable to organize their ideas in English. The center of the problem is that they lack practice and confidence(自信).Why should you be afraid? Do you fear those foreigners with whom you are speaking? Don’t be shy, they will not laugh at you just for a little mistake you make. The best way to get rid of trouble is to learn to speak by speaking more. I am sure that constant practice will help you succeed.1.What’s the best topic for the passage?A.How to speak to foreignersB.How to study English wellC.How to organize the idea in EnglishD.Practise speaking English all the time2.Many Chinese students can write English very well,but they cannot speak English freely because_______.A.they seldom meet foreignersB.they seldom practise speaking EnglishC.they had no chance to speak EnglishD.they think it’s enough to master the basic language structure3.So many Chinese students are afraid to speak to foreigners because _________.A.they are afraid they can’t understand foreignersB.they don’t think their English is poorC.they worry about making mistakes in their speakingD.they didn’t like speaking to foreigners4.According to the passenger,which of the following is NOT true?A.We can speak English fluently by doing more speaking.B.If you can write English perfectly,you are able to organize your idea in English.C.If you can write good English composition,you can speak English very well.D.Many Chinese students can’t speak English freely because they are afraid of making mistakes.5.In the last paragraph,the expression “get rid of” means ________.A.throw awayB.set freeC.give upD.do withCThe Origin of WordsAbout three hundred words in the English language come from the names of people.Many of these words are technical words.When there is a new invention of discovery,a new word may be coined(杜撰) after the inventor or scientist.It is interesting to observe how many common words have found their way into the language from the names of people.Lord Sandwich,who lived from 1718-1792,used to sit at the gambling(赌博) table eating bread with meat in between.As the Lord was the only one among his friends who ate bread in that way,his friend began to call the bread “sandwich” for ter on the word became part of the English language.The word “boycott”means to refuse to have anything to do with somebody or something.It comes from a man called Captain Boycott.He was a land agent in 1880 and he collected rents and taxes for an English landowner in Ireland.But the Captain was a very harsh(苛刻的) man. He treated his poor tenants (佃户) very badly.His tenants decided not to speak to him at all.

The following are some of the new rules.Tell the truth.Have you ever copied someone else's work on an exam?Don't do it again!That's not something an honest student should do.If you have played computer games for two hours in your room,don't tell your parents you have done homework.Do more at school.Good students love animals and care for other people.April is Bird-Loving Month in China.Is your school doing anything to celebrate?

We don’t normally put them in a composition or a letter. Sometimes it is helpful if you know what common proverbs mean. Here are a few examples.1) “Once bitten, twice shy.” If a dog bites me, I shall be twice as careful in future when I see it. Thisproverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs. If you have been cheated at a shop, you will not go the same shop again.2) “A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” If I am a hunter, tryin g to catch birds, it is better tocatch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them. Thus this means that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able to get something bigger in future.3) “Too many cooks spoil the broth (soup)”. When too many people do something, they get in eachother’s way and do a bad job.4) “To pour oil on troubled waters” is to try to calm things down. Oil is lighter than water. If a ship is introuble at sea, another ship may come to help it. The second ship can send small boats to rescue people. However, it may first pour oil on the sea to make the sea less rough.5) “Don’t be a dog in a manger( 槽)”means“ Don’t be selfish.” In a stable ( 马房), the manger isthe place where the horse’s food is put. Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horse comes to get its food. The dog does want to eat the lay in the manger but it will not let the horse eat it.6) “He is sitting on the fence” means that somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan oragainst it. He is sitting on a fence between two opposing sides, perhaps waiting to see which side will win.7)“He who pays the piper calls the tune.” A piper is a musician. The man who employs or pays amusician can say what tunes the man will play. Thus this means that if a man provides the money fora plan, he can say how it will be carried out.8)“You can’t get blood out of a stone” means that you cannot get something from a person who has notgot any of the things you want. e. g. you cannot get a million dollars from a poor man.1. Peter has a bicycle which is much too small for him but he does not want to let his younger brotherride on it. His mother is angry and says to him: ______.A. You can’t get blood out of a stoneB. Don’t be a dog in a mangerC. The early bird gets the wormD. To pour oil on troubled waters2. Mr. and Mrs. Smith had a quarrel. Their friend, Mr. Brown, want to talk to them. When he came back,he told his wife that he had been trying to help the Smiths by ______.A. pouring oil on troubled watersB. getting blood out of a stoneC. being a dog in a mangerD. sitting on the fence3. Mr. Wang paid for a new school. Some people didn’t like the design of the school but they didn’targue with Mr. Wang because ______.A. he was sitting on the fenceB. once bitten, twice shyC. he who pays the piper calls the tuneD. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush4. Mrs. Lin wanted to buy a new dress. Her husband suggested that she buy it from a shop near theirhome. Mrs. Lin disagreed because she had been cheated by that shop. So she said :“I won’t go there again because ______.”A. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bushB. I am sitting on the fenceC. once bitten, twice shyD. too many cooks spoil the broth5. Mr. Brown had quite a good job in Hong Kong but he thought that if he went to Singapore, he mightget a muc h better job with more money and a larger house. His wife didn’t want him to leave his job in Hong Kong and she reminded him that ______.A. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bushB. too many cooks spoil the brothC. you can not get blood out of a stoneGFor the first time in Hong Kong’s history，an entertainer（艺人）has been written into middle school textbooks．He is considered one of the best actors in Hong Kong．Yes，he is Chow Yun fat．The example of his long hard struggle for success has been used in a chapter in a Hong Kong middle school textbook．Using his experience，students can learn to make the most of their time and to grab（抓住）every opportunity（机会）to succeed．On hearing about this，Chow said happily，“I really hope that my experiences can make young people understand that one should not be afraid of difficulties and setbacks（挫折），for they are the only way to success．”Indeed，Chow has travelled a long and difficult path to reach his success．In 1955，he was born into a poor family in Hong Kong．When he was 17，he had to leave school．He worked in a number of jobs—as a postman，camera salesman and taxi driver．These experiences paved the way for him to play all kinds of roles later in life．Chow broke into the film industry in the late 1970s．He was one of the hardest working actors and starred in a number of popular TV dramas and films including “Shanghai Bund”（《上海滩》）and “A Better Tomorrow”．Since 1985，he has won many awards including Taiwan’s Golden Horse Awards and Hong Kong Film Awards （香港金像奖）．In 1995，he went to Hollywood．Although he was already in his 40s，he had to learn English.He even put chopsticks in his mouth to practise pronouncing certain sounds．His film，“Crouching Tiger，Hidden Dragon”(卧虎藏龙)，began to gain him more fame and recognition around the world．In 1998，the mayor of Chicago set aside January 12 as “Chow Yun fat Day．”1.Chow Yun fat has been written into middle school textbooks mainly because ＿＿＿＿．A.he plays best in Hong KongB.he keeps on struggling for successC..his experiences are very specialD.he is well thought of2.What can we infer from the passage？A.Chow Yun fat is proud of his success．B.Chow Yun fat is popular both at home and abroad．C.Chow Y un fat prefers to make a living by selling cameras rather than by performing．D.Chow Yun fat has won more awards than other actors．3.The author wrote this passage to ＿＿＿＿．A.introduce Chow’s way to successB.praise Chow for his excellent performanceC.call on people to learn something from ChowD.show why Chow is popularHChinese are very generous (慷慨) when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.However, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap.Parents can see that their children’s skills vary, skilled in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that today’s children lack self-respect and self-confidence(自信).The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills they need to be confident, happy and clever.Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking demands patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence.Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not merely teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.1. Parents in China, according to this passage, _______.A. are too strict with their childrenB. are too rich to educate their childrenC. have some problems in educating their children correctlyD. are too poor to educate their children2. Generally speaking, children’s skills ______.e from their parentsB.have nothing to do with their educationC. may be differentD. have something to do with their marks in the exams3. The writer of the passage does not seem to be satisfied with ______.A. the parents’ ideas of educating their childrenB. the education systemC. children’s skillsD. children’s hobbies4. Doing some cooking at home helps children ______.A. learn how to serve their parentsB. learn how to become strong and fatC. benefit from it and prepare themselves for the futureD. make their parents believe that they are clever5. According to the last paragraph we can conclude that ______.A. broken radios and television sets are usefulB. one’s curiosity may be useful for his later lifeC. an engineer must fix many broken radiosD. a good student should spend much time repairing radios完形:1—5.

We sat and talked. “I remember when I coul d sit here and watch the fish swimming in the water,” he said. “Sometimes, they’d jump out and land beside me. I didn’t even need a fishing rod then.”“We have to be patient,” he continued. “The fish may come or may not. It doesn’t matter. We are out in the sun. It’s a beautiful day.

Without snakes, perhaps we would find mice everywhere, Most of us, however, woul d rather see a mouse than a snake, The poison argument( 毒性的争论)is a strong one, Some snakes are poisonous, and this causes people’s death , However, the poisonous snakes are only a small number. We can’t say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones. And what d o we do with the people who really like snakes? They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them. These people learn about them, find them out, and watch them carefully, Why? The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded, They are abl e to put asid e differences and welcome the snake as a friend.Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes d o something good in the circle of life.They would prefer to be left alone, and that is what we should d o, If you’re lucky, you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime, That would be fine with most of us.15．How d oes the writer d escribe the appearance of snakes?A．Something even without legs.B．Something not popular among people.C．A person who is neutral.D．A person who cares about nothing.16．Which of the foll owing shows that most peopl e dislike snakes?A．They wel come snakes as their best friends.B．They would rather see a mouse than a snake.C．They wonder why snakes can cause great fear.D．They learn about snakes and watch them carefully.17．Although some snakes are poisonous, _______.A．they cause many people’s deathB．they control the population of miceC．they are not dangerous to peopl eD．they are only a small number18．The last paragraph seems to tell us that the writer _______.A．dislikes snakesB．has the best luckC．l oves snakesD．prefers to be l eft al oneThe Westwood Mid dl e School has d ecid ed to hol d a blood drive (献血活动), and you can help.Help with The Blood DriveThe School is holding a bl ood drive for teachers, parents, and town people.

This is exactly what happened with Du Haotian, a student from Shaanxi province. The potato chips Du is making are called guoba, usually made of millet rice（小米）, but here Du chose col ored potatoes as the ingredients（原料）.Zhenba, in the south of Shaanxi, has been trying to sell high-quality（质量）potatoes. But the sales are at a l ow l evel. Du, a stud ent of Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, together with his team, introduced col orful potatoes and mad e them into crispy, fried potato snacks. After trying again and again, it gradually turned into a popular snack at Du’sunive rsity. At the end of last year, Du’s team set up their own factory in the village to plant and produce the snacks locally. At the beginning of this year, the production line was put into use.However, whil e helping the local community, Du was under pressure to graduate. Although he was supposed to graduate in June 2020, Du offered to put off graduation for one year. Du said the production line project was still on the way and he wanted to live up to the expectations of the villagers. “A lot of my friends a nd teachers told me not to do that. But if the factory is built but does not run well, it woul d be against my original intention（初心）.” Finally, Du’s teacher supported him.Recently, Du’s potato snacks took part in a college food competition. His product w as once in the first place with the support of many local villagers, which touched Du. “Rural revitalization（乡村振兴）depends on industrial revitalization. I want to make an effort with my hard work in this process.”22．What’s Du’s guoba made of?A．millet rice B．crispy corn C．sweet potatoes D．col orful potatoes23．How did Du’s team help potato sal es in Zhenba?A．They planted high-quality potatoes.

Well, some people can’t recognize this many because of colorblindness. If someone iscol orblind, that means he can’t see as many col ors as others –or, in rare cases, can’t see col ors at all.Thankfully, special glasses have already been made to help fix some types ofcol orblindness. Now, according to a recent research, scientists have brought this solution one step further. Karepov and Ellenbogen, engineers from Israel have found a way to apply this technology to contact lenses (隐形眼镜). This method is so creative because it can solve many different kinds of visual (视力的) problems.People are able to see color because of how the eye is structured. At the back of our eyes, there’re three different kinds of cells that absorb (吸收) light waves. When light waves are absorbed, the cells send a message to the brain for the image to be processed.If something is wrong with these cells, this can cause probl ems when the brain processes the image. One of the most common types of colorblindness is red-greencol orblindness. People who have this specific type of visual imperfection have difficulty telling apart the col ors red and green.“It would influence simple daily routines such as telling the col ors of traffic lights,” Karepov explained. He also stressed the importance of using this finding to create special contact lenses instead of relying on col or-correcting glasses.Whet her you prefer to wear glasses or contacts, it’s nice to know that people who are col orblind will soon be able to choose between the two, as well.31．The writer leads in the topic by _______ at the beginning of the passage.A．describing a fact B．listing a numberC．asking a question D．giving an example32．The second paragraph mainly tells us about _______ colorblindness.A．the main cause of B．the different kinds ofC．a simpl e tool to find D．a new method to fix33．The und erlined word “imperfection” in Parag raph 4 is cl osest in meaning to _______.A．experience B．weakness C．language D．examination34．The overall tone (总基调) of the passage is _______.A．personal and d oubtful B．sad but humorousC．scientific and promising D．informative but meaninglessOne of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. Peopl e d o this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to d o this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.1.” What’s the matter?” “I went to a party last night, so I…”2.”I feel so tired these days.” “I think you’d better…”3.”Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…”You can see from the above three examples that the context helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about.

Since many foreign tourists have known little about, here is some information about it.An end and new beginningBy the time of Shuangjiang. most of the harvesting (丰收) work is already completed in northern China .Farmers are now able to enjoy a period of rest.But in the south .the harvest is still in its best time, as farmers have to take home the sweet potatoes before they are destroyed by the coming frost.Across the country, after year of farming, now it is time to pl ow the fields and prepare the soil for next year.Enjoy the flaming red mapl e leaves (枫叶)Autumn might be the most col orful season in China with the leaves turning fromgol den yell ow to red. Activities like hiking become popular as people appreciate the bright red leaves.Nearly all the tourist websites list the best places for admiring the red maple leaves during this time, and many cities start to offer official routes for the best views of the leaves.Appreciating in the view an old tradition starting in ancient times .Du Mu ,awell-known poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) described the mountainous scenery in a poem :“ stopped the coach as charmed by the maple woods ; Frosted autumn leaves outshine February fl owers in redness.”Best time to adjust (调整)to a healthy lifestyl eIt is said that Shuangjiang is the best time to adjust to a nourishing (营养的) life, which reflects the belief that this is an important time to focus (关注) on health.

These imports also include solid waste, such as plastics, paper and metals. They mainly come from countries like the United States, the United Kingd om and Japan.These goods will no l onger be imported next year. China will ban(禁止) all imports of solid waste starting from Jan 1, 2021, said the Ministry of Ecol ogy and Environment(MEE).Why d oes China import this waste? In 1980, China’s economy(经济) was gradually taking off because of the reform and opening-up policy(改革开放政策). The country’s factories didn’t have enough raw materials(原材料) at that time. Therefore, China began importing solid waste. After being processed, it can be turned into materials that are used to make other products.For years, China has been the worl d’s largest importer of solid waste, with about 45 million tons arriving each year. Countries that send this waste to China pay about $25(163 yuan) to $50 per ton for recycling, China News Agency reported.Although the waste has helped develop China’s economy, it has brought more risks than benefits. Waste that can’t be used is either burned or buried(填埋). The water used to wash the waste is all owed to fl ow into nearby rivers. This has polluted the air, soil and water, posing a risk to public health, China Daily reported.China has made some efforts to ban waste since 2017. From 2017 to 2019, imports of solid waste fell by 68 percent, dropping from 42 million to 13 million tons, Xinhua reported.What about China’s waste?China can produce enough raw materials to support its economy now. However, it is also producing a rapidly-increasing amount of waste.In 2019, the government worked out a guideline for the creation of zero solid waste programs. These programs have been carried out in 11 cities and five districts(区域), including Shenzhen in Guangdong province and Weihai in Shandong province.50．After Jan 1, 2021, what will no l onger be all owed in China?A．Importing plastic products from abroad.B．Buying solid waste from abroad.C．Selling metals to other countries.D．Producing solid waste.51．What d o we know from Paragraphs 3 and 4?A．Many factories used to use solid waste to make products.B．About 45 million tons of waste are processed worl dwide each year.C．China has made a l ot of money by importing waste.D．It costs very littl e money to recycl e solid waste.52．What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A．How solid waste has helped China’s devel opment.B．What we can do to protect ourselves from waste.C．What risks solid waste brought to China.D．How solid waste should be dealt with.53．According to the last paragraph, which word d escribes China’s efforts to ban waste?A．wasteful B．effective(有效的) C．chall enging D．expensiveBeijing Opera, also called Peking Opera, is our national opera. It came into being (形成) after 1790 and has a history of over 200 years. Its music and singing came from Xipi and Erhuang in Anhui and Hubei. The Guangxu Emperor (帝王) and Empress Dowager Cixi were also crazy about Beijing Opera and helped d evelop the art form.There are four main rol es in Beijing Opera: Sheng, Dan, Jing, Chou.

Sometimes they are afraid and worried. Then they find a way to make peace with (与……讲和) each other. Everyone is usually happy in the end.Beijing Opera is an important part of Chinese culture. In China it used to be popular with old people while young people didn’t like it very muc h. However, more young people arebecoming interested in it nowadays.

Teenager need nine to ten hours. And pre-school children needmore than 10 hours of sleep a night.Experts say the quality(质量)of our sleep becomes poor as we grow older. This happens because the brain unit that controls sleep begins to weaken slowly as we age.Experts say the change starts in our 30s. By the time we reach our 50s, a person may have lost 50 percent of their ability to have a restful sleep.These people have trouble failing and staying asleep through the night. From middle age on, these problems only get worse, and they can have a bad effect on their health. Signs that show you may not be getting enough sleep.You’re always hungry or you’ve got unwanted weight. If you are in short of sleep, certain chemicals in your body will not work well and tell your brain in time that you have eaten enough.You have trouble making decisions.

This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70%of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97%of that is sea water or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3%of fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground and so on. And we can not even use all of that because some of it has been made dirty.Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember how important water is. The water that we use is the most important natural resource on the earth. Today we face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too.How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First they pollute the air. Then when it rains, the rain water makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain（酸雨）, is also bad for plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won't have enough dean water. We have to learn how to stop wasting water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water i~ used only once and then sere out into a sewer system（下水道）. From there it returns to the sea or goes underground.But even though every large city reused its water, we would still not have enough. So we should make use of sea water by removing the salt in it. If we can take these steps, fresh water won't be used up.1. The world is thirsty for water because______.A．we don't have enough fresh waterB．a lot of water goes into sewer systemsC．only 70% of the earth's surface is waterD．sea water is widely used rather than fresh water2. The underlined word "face" means"______".A．turn the face downB．turn the face upC．turn the face toD．turn the face back3. From this passage, we know acid rain________.A．is only bad for living thingsB．is not bad for buildings and factoriesC．can be produced in factoriesD．is bad for people, animals, plants and buildings4. One difficult way we can solve the problem is to ______.A．use the water with salt in itB．remove the salt from sea waterC．get water from undergroundD．reuse the water in cities5. What is the best title for this passage?A．Fresh water and sea waterB．A thirsty countryC．The importance of waterD．The world's water problem参考答案ACDBD【实战训练】 E（2019中考选练）Your computer has been playing music for years, one CD at a time. Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC if they' re in the MP3 format (格式).What is it?MP3 compressed(压缩) music into small computer files. You may download MP3 music several ways: Music can be downloaded from websites that have turned wide music libraries into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive, you can play it through your computer's speakers, "burn" it onto blank CDs or swap(交换) MP3 files with friends using e -mail.How much?Software needed to play and convert MP3 music is often free. Compact portable MP3 players start at around $ 40 and c an hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.AdvantagesMP3 turns your home PC into a jukebox(自动唱机) . Small MP3 players are the size of a deck of cards(一副牌), making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.DisadvantagesYou may find that some websites only allow you to listen but you can't download music. Others let you download music but can't be copied to MP3 players. And a growing number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.1. How can you get MP3 music?A. By turning your home PC into a jukebox.B. By taking your own music or songs with you.C. By copying songs to a PC through the speakers.D. By downloading from websites, which have turned music libraries i nto MP3.2. What is the closest meaning of the underlined word "burn"?A. Copy.B. Play.C. Store.D. Change.3. Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. MP3 music is often free.B. MP3 music can be "burned" onto blank CDs or be swapped with friends by e -mail.C. MP3 music can be taken along while traveling.D. A growing number of new CDs make it possible to copy songs to a computer.4. How much will you pay for a compact portable MP3 player?A. Free.B.

【人教新目标】2019年中考英语二轮复习专项练习：阅读理解(二)附答案
2019年中考英语阅读理解编习题（二）附答案【能力选练】 A（2019中考选练）If you want to become a fluent(流利的)English speaker you should take some advice: There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meanings of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it_As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.1. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?A. Reading and writing.B. Reading and listening.C. Writing andspeaking. D. Speaking and listening.2. The underlined phrase "come across" in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by "_______".A. meet byaccident B. discoverC. find on purposeD. look for3. The author seems to agree with the view that_______.A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every dayB. you needn't practice listening if you keep on reading every dayC. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listeningD. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing4. The passage is mainly about how to_______.A. choose suitable listening materialsB. deal with new words in readingC. read as many English books as possibleD. become fluent in speaking and writing English参考答案BACD【能力选练】 B中考英语阅读理解****浪费可耻Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源), we are short of(缺乏) others, for example, fresh water(淡水). It is reported that we will have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources,what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps(水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.◆根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。

Since late January, China has put off (1) the new school semester and encouraged students to study at home over safety concerns.The Ministry of Education issued(发布）a guideline for universities to organize online classes, with 22 online platforms (2) 24,000 courses to students.

(4) what has been arranged by your schools as your study routine, what can you gain from online learning? Online courses can offer you a good experience for self-learning.To (5) learn online, you need to dedicate(奉献）a significant amount of your time, consistently attend the program, concentrate(专心）while studying and fully （6）your learning process, just as you would do for a regular course. To stay on track with your online course, always (7) what you hope to complete by the end of it.Make a goal. Predict how much time each task will (8) to complete. Keep detailed notes and review them often. A study plan is important to online learning.First, you need to plan ahead with a good calendar system. Online learning needs (9) . Create a study calendar (10) will help you remember all the important dates like online exams or deadlines for your tasks. A to-do list is useful to prioritize(优先处理）your study plan and to stay on track with your studying.When you feel yourself （11）concentration, consider taking a short break or stopping for the night. It is better to wait until you are able to start afresh (12) waste your time trying to focus.Taking online courses can be very convenient for many people. However, online learning (13) time management skills, self-discipline, willpower and motivation, as it may be challenging for online learners to successfully complete their online courses.(14) American author John C. Maxwell once said, “Success doesn’t just happen. You have to be intentional about it, and that takes discipline.” Take Maxwell’s (15) and make full use of online learning for self-improvement.( )1.A.to start B.starting C.started D.start( )2.A.offer B.offering C.provide D.providing( )3.A.please B.satisfy C.meet D.give( )4.A.Besides B.Except C.Beside D.Except for( )5.A.succeed B.successful C.successfully D.success( )6.A.stick to B.stick into C.stick on D.stick out( )7.A.keep up with B.keep in mindC.keep away fromD.keep in touch with( )8.A.spend B.cost C.take D.pay( )9.A.to organize well anizing wellC.to be organizing wellD.well organized( )10.A.what B.who C.that D.where( )11.A.losing B.to lose C.lost D.lose( )12.A.instead of B.rather than C.instead D.than( )13.A.requires B.requests C.regrets D.replies( )14.A.Like B.As C.Because D.Since( )15.A.advises B.suggestion C.advice D.advices(B)A wonderful article here on China Daily said that spending for education increases annually (1) about 20%. As a foreign teacher here, I'm wondering how it (2) and what are the results. You can spend more money without being effective.One of my biggest questions is: Why do children in the USA stay in school 2-3 hours less each day, have very (3) homework, no weekend classes and still do well in education in comparison to most Chinese students?Now, in my opinion, Chinese students are smart,very intelligent, I know. I teach them. They know how to study hard and for long hours. They know how to stand long classes. Children in the USA wouldn't sit (4) a class of over an hour. 40-50 minutes for most classes at most in the USA.When Chinese students attend university in the USA, their success rate is nearly 100%. Very, very rare does a Chinese child fail in the USA. Why? The answer is the same—they know how to study hard.So, (5) to Chinese children, American children get far less classroom instruction and far less homework at night. Yet there are over 200,000 Chinese college students (6) schools in the U.S. and that number is growing by 25% annually. In 3 years, there will likely be over 400,000 Chinese students studying in the USA.Now, I can reason and reconcile (7) Chinese students want to attend college in the USA. But in my year and a half here, I've met parents (8) children are in middle school and the parents want to send them to the USA. It seems to me that in China, long hours, extra hours and extra days of classes is realized as better education. Schools I've taught at here, (9) adding classes and oftentimes, longer classes. In the West, parents, teachers and students would never permit this. They wouldn't think of sending their children to school on Saturday or Sunday. However, in China, it is very common.I honestly and sincerely don't know the answers to these questions. If Western education is THAT much better, then, shouldn't Western styles of teaching (10) in China? Again, I'm seeking reasonable and intelligent objective answers.( )1.A.to B.by C.at D.in( )2.A.is spent B.spent C.is taken D.took( )3.A.a little B.little C.a few D.few( )4.A.for B.over C.through D. in( )paring pared C.to compare pare( )6.A.joining B.taking C.attending D.joining in( )7.A.why B.how C.what D.where( )8.A.whom B.who C.of which D.whose( )9.A.take up B.take in C.take pride in D.take on( )10.A.be adopted B.adopt C.allow D.be allowed(C)How many times have you complained, “There aren’t enough hours in the day!”?Holly Gabrielle White, a vlogger who graduated from University of Cambridge, probably (1) . After she began school in August 2016, White started a channel on the video-sharing website YouTube. It records her daily life on campus. Now she has more than 270,000 subscribers to her channel.In her videos, the 22-year-old gets up at 6:30 am and goes to bed at 10:30 pm every day. In (2) , she balances studying, cooking, house cleaning and exercising. Sometimes she finds time to meet up with friends and speak to her family online.A similar case (3) college students in China. Months ago, the official Tsinghua University microblog account showed pictures of students’ plans, study notes and daily schedules. In one of them, an undergraduate tightly arranges his daily life. He usually goes to bed at 1:00 am and gets up at 6:00 am. Although he only takes 10 classes a week, the rest of his day will be fully booked. He starts his day bypre-reading his textbooks at 6:40 am, and (4) a summary of his studies. When he feels like it is hard to stick to his schedule, he writes encouragements to himself, like, “You’re the best”, and “Go for it”.Both students’ hard work(5) certainly paid off. White was at the top of her 152 other classmates; and the Chinese undergraduate won (6) scholarship four years in a row. The two have something in common. They have regular schedules and get up early to study. They squeeze as (7) into the schedule as they can. More (8) , they learn a way of managing time well and efficiently.Some may wonder how they can (9) exhaustion, stress and burnout. White’s video Time Management & Organization Tips All Students Should Know may provide an answer. She advises to write our tasks in a set order on a to-do list. We should also know how to avoid and release stress because, “Mental health is as important as our physic al health.” To White, dancing is something she takes as a reward after completing everything on the list. Then enough sleep to rest her body and get ready to do a good job the next day.Indeed, things must be carefully planned before we act, then “(10) can be reached with half the effort”, as the old Chinese saying goes.( )1.A.agrees B.disagrees C.agreed D.disagreed( )2.A.between B.among C.all D.both( )3.A. was happened to B.took place inC.happened toD.was taken place in( )4.

The problem he has is how to (1) an artist once he grows up.”This is both encouraging and discouraging: The fact that we were all born to be artists is certainly exciting, and yet the reality has proven that remaining one is a task that many of us have failed. (2) , some people have seen the problem and want to solve it.Western educators have suggested that we (3) the thought of “STEAM” instead of “STEM” –traditional “core majors” including science, technology, engineering, and math –since the “A”,(4) stands for “arts”, is just as important. And on April 11, China’s Ministry of Education issued a guideline. Colleges and universities are required to provide more art-related courses and students need to earn a certain number of art credits in order to graduate.These efforts came after many scientific studies (5) that art education helps students (6) self-confidence and teamwork skills, as well as habits of mind such as problem solving and critical thinking, according to The Washington Post. It’s true that (7) of these skills target specific jobs. But as former US ballet dancer Damian Woetzel told The Atlantic, the purpos e of art is “to give kids the tools to become adults (8) creative, adaptable, and expressive – capable of having their eyes and ears and senses (9) ”.And we can now see how we lost track of our born “artist self” on our way to growing up: We (10) to keep our capabilities to see, hear and feel, and became blind, deaf and insensitive adults.

2020年人教版新目标英语中考阅读理解、完形填空试题及答案6A coin collection usually starts from unexpected beginnings. For example, you may have coins in your purse from a trip to another country or you may find old coins in an old shop. You can have your collections about the country, year or subject. If your friends travel to many other countries, you would find it easy to collect coins of different countries. You may also choose a foreign country that interest you, like France or India, and collect coins of that country. You’d better collect your own nation’s coins if you want to know more about collections!Some coin collectors collect faulty coins such as coins with over dates, off-center coins and so on. But there are few faulty coins. This makes them even more interesting. You can also collect by material, gold or silver.You can pick up interesting coins during the international travel, and you can also get them at local shops, markets and coin shows.It’s great to collect coins, but where are you going to store them?

Airports and airplanes let people travel to different countries easily, so there are more foreigners here than there used to be. Also, there are fewer farms than there used to be because now farmers can grow more food by using machines. But the biggest change has probably been how people live their lives at home. In the past, people had to wash their clothes by hand, which usually took about 1 or 2 hours from start to finish. Now, washing machines can do the same work in less than 40 minutes! Cooking and cleaning the house used to take many hours every day, too. Modern people have much more free time than people used to have. But his is not always a good thing. Many people get bored more easily than people in the past did. When they have free time, they just surf the Internet or listen to the radio.

After that you should be able to search for an mp3 player that suits your particular purpose. It is easy. You put “mp3 player” in a search engine like Google or whichever one you use and you will find many websites. However, some links could be fake, so be careful. And my last piece of advice is definitely read other people's comments. Those comments are written by people who have already bought and used the product, so they can help you much more than this article.Finally, I would like to say that there are a lot of different ways of getting the mp3 that you want.

People who want to act in plays come from all over the world hoping to get a job as an actor. They want to become rich and famous on Broadway.But one group of actors in a new Broadway play is happy to perform for just a snack. These actors are dogs. They perform in a musical show called Chitty Bang Bang. The dogs do a great job in the play, thanks to their trainer William Berioni.Berioni did not plan to become an animal trainer. In college he studied acting and learned how to put on plays. But Berioni was also interested in animals. He often brought homeless animals to his house.Berioni combined his love for plays with his love for animals. He began training a dog to be in a Broadway play. He found just the right dog for the play at an animal shelter. This is a place that takes care of homeless animals. The dog became famous as Sandy in the play Annie. The dog performed onstage for seven years. This is the longest any animal has been in a Broadway play.Berioni hopes the dogs will be in the play for a long time. When the play finally ends, the dogs will stay on a farm with Berioni and his family. The dogs will have plenty to keep them busy. Berioni already has many other animals he takes care of on his farm.Aaron Conley, an 11-year-old boy, is a child actor. He has performed many kinds of roles. He has taken many years of acting, dancing, and singing lessons. If chosen for a part, the children must work hard.In fact, going to school became difficult when Aaron began receiving acting jobs in New York City. Many child actors were studying in private schools that allow them to have flexible time tables. These schools were expensive, so Aaron’s mother let him study in a public school. But the time table there was very difficult to follow since Aaron sometimes needed to leave in the middle of the school day for play practices. Finally his mother decided to teach Aaron at home.Children actors and their families make many sacrifices. One of the biggest sacrifices that Aaron’s family has made was moving from Mississippi to New York City. Aaron needed to live close to his acting jobs. This meant leaving behind family and friends. Also, because of his busy acting time table, Aaron isn’t always able to take part in activities, which makes it difficult to make friends in a new place.Night after night, show after show, Aaron Conley understands the difficulty of his job, but heloves what he does.( )1.

She walked as if each step was painful.After walking around the store for a moment, she stopped in front of the rows of canned vegetables. She picked up one, and looked at the label strangely. I went over to her and asked her if she needed any help.“Are you looking for corn, madam?”“I’m hungry. I need some food,” she answered. “Any kind.”“Well, the corn is ninety-five cents,” I said in my most helpful voice.“I can’t pay,” she said.For a second, I want to say, “Take the corn.” But the employee rules flooded into my mind. I couldn’t do that. “I’m sorry; madam, but I can’t give you anything for free.”The old woman’s face turned red. She put the corn back, and went out sadly.Moments after she left, I rushed out the door with the corn, but I couldn’t see her. For the rest of that day, the image of the poor woman troubled me.

It was hard to leave, but Taj kissed his mother goodbye and headed off to school.When Taj arrived at school that morning, a new student named Berto was in class. Mrs. Grant ask ed, “Who will be Berto’s helper?” Taj raised his hand. He wanted a chance to help this new boy just as some other children had helped him. One month ago Taj was the “new kid” from a faraway country.Berto was from Puerto Rico. He spoke Spanish and English. Taj showed him around the classroom. Mrs. Grant let them go out for a school tour. Berto smiled often, asking many questions on their walk around school. Taj thought, “Maybe I have a new friend!”Berto was lively. His long legs always seemed ready to run. Later, Berto and Taj joined a soccer game. Sports looked like fun Taj played, but his mind and body didn’t work well together.

Others compete. Rock climbing can be dangerous. But there are many ways to keep a climber’s safety. Climbing takes strength, control and good balance. Climbers have to pull themselves straight up. So they have to be strong enough to carry their own weight. And climbers sometimes have to hold on to rocks by only their fingers or toes.There are four kinds of rock climbing. Traditional rock climbing is done outside. Climbers wear ropes as they climb. If a climber slips, a rope can stop him from falling.There is also indoor climbing. Rock walls have places for the climber's hands and feet. Ice climbing is exactly as it sounds. People climb glaciers or frozen waterfalls instead of rocks. They use special equipment for the ice. And then there is bouldering—climbing rocks between three and seven meters high. It is a quick climbing. Many climbers like bouldering because they can use less equipment. Climbers often need only special shoes and chalk. All climbers use chalk to keep their hands dry.Most rocks have holes. Climbers use these for footholds and handholds. Climbers use their legs to climb. Arms and hands are for position and balance. Climbers often need to lock their bodies to the rock with one small finger hold.( )1.

Sometimes it ishelpful if you know what common proverbs mean. Here area few examples.1)“Once bitten, twiceshy.” If a dog bites me, I shall be twice as careful in future when I see it.This proverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs. If youhave been cheated at a shop, you will not go the same shop again.2) “A bird in the hand is worthtwo in the bush.” If I am a hunter, trying to catch birds, it is better tocatch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them. Thus thismeans that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able toget something bigger in future.3) “Too many cooks spoil the broth(soup)”. When too many people do something, they get ineach other’s way and doa bad job.4) “To pour oil on troubledwaters” is to try to calm things down. Oil is lighter than water. If a ship isin trouble at sea, another ship may come to help it. The second ship can sendsmall boats to rescue people. However, it may first pour oil on the sea to makethe sea less rough.5) “Don’t be a dog in a manger( 槽)”means“ Don’t be selfish.” In a stable ( 马房), the manger is the place where the horse’sfood is put. Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horsecomes to get its food. The dog does want to eat the lay in the manger but itwill not let the horse eat it.6) “He is sitting on the fence” meansthat somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan or against it. Heis sitting on a fence between two opposing sides, perhaps waiting to see which side will win.7)“Hewho pays the piper calls the tune.” A piper is a musician. The man who employs or pays a musician can say what tunes the man will play. Thus this means that if a man provides the money for a plan, he can say how it will be carried out.8)“Youcan’t get blood out of a stone” means that you cannot get something from a person who has not got any of the things you want. e. g. you cannot get a million dollars from a poor man.1. Peter has a bicycle which is much toosmall for him but he does not want to let his younger brother ride on it. His mother is angry and says to him: ______.A.

Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to thebest schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia. They alsowant their children to take extra-course activities where they will eitherlearn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes that will give them ahead start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an educationis, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.However, whatmost parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give theirchildren is usually very cheap.。

A阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案，In Western society，especially in the English﹣speaking world，the chance for young people to see the other countries and experience life is considered important．Many young people，when they finish school at the age of 18，take a gap yearbefore they go to university．Parents often want their children to grow up a little and see what the real world is like when they finish school．Although they are worried about their safety，many think that the advantages of independenceand experience are worth the worries．Children are encouraged to be brave，independent and to explore the world on their own or with friends．Young people also want to experience freedom and see what life is like on the other side．This other side could be the other side of the world or just the other side of life．For example，if they have a rich life，they may want to see how people in poor areas live．A gap year after school is also an important chance for young people to spend time thinking about what they want to do with their lives．A little bit of growing up and experience will help them make their important career decisions，especially when they are unsure about what they want to study．Another reason for going straight after school is to get a break from studying before they start the next few years of university．So anywhere you travel in the world，you will meet young European people exploring the world．So much of the world has been travelled and explored．The young people are now looking for more worthy experiences．Some of them work as volunteers to do something for the country they are visiting．Many gap year volunteers are now spending a few months teaching English in Thailand，helping feed giant pandas in China or building a well（井）in a village in Africa．These young people’s wish to explore the world is an expression of the values of the societies that they are part of．Both discovering the world and making a positive difference in it are important parts of the Western mind．37．Which is NOT a reason for young people to take a gap year？DA．Young people want to take a break from studying．B．Young people want to be sure about what to study．C．Parents encourage them to be brave and independent．D．Parents encourage them to live a free and wealthy life．38．Now a gap year volunteer mightdosomething more valuable like B．A．experiencing different culturesB．helping protect rainforests in BrazilC．making friends with more peopleD．enjoying traditional local food39．By taking a gap year，young people may C．A．stay with their parents all the time B．make money for their further studyC．help change the world for the better D．change the Western mind completely40．The purpose of writing this article is to B．A．show different opinions about gap yearB．offer readers information about gap yearC．discover new ways to take a gap yearD．tell young people when to take a gap year．【考点】社会文化类阅读．【分析】翻译：在西方社会，特别是在讲英语的世界，看年轻人到其他国家和体验生活的机会被认为是重要的．很多年轻人，当他们完成学业，在18岁的时候，上大学以前的这年间隙．当他们完成学业，父母想要自己的孩子长大一点去看看真实的世界是什么样子．虽然他们很担心他们的安全，许多人认为独立和经验优势是值得担忧的．鼓励孩子勇敢，自己或与朋友独立探索世界．年轻人还想体验自由，看看生活是什么样的，另一边的世界是什么样的．另一边或是生活的另一边，例如，如果他们有富有的生活，他们可能希望看到穷人的生活方式．学校的一个空隙年也是年轻人花时间思考自己想做什么的重要机会，有点成长和经验会帮助他们做出重要的职业决策，特别是当他们不确定他们要学习什么时候．另一个去学校的原因是，在未来的几年里，你可以从学习中获得一个休息的机会，所以在世界上任何地方旅行，你都会遇到来自欧洲的年轻人．世界上许多的人已经在旅行和探索．年轻人正在寻找更多值得借鉴的经验．其中一些志愿者工作，为他们所访问的国家做一些事情．许多空隙年志愿者现在花几个月在泰国教学英语，在中国帮助喂养大熊猫或在非洲的建立一个村庄．这些年轻人希望探索世界是一个社会的价值观的表达，他们是世界的一部分，并在这方面的积极的差异是西方精神的重要组成部分．【解答】37．D．根据语境Parents often want their children to grow up a little and see what the real world is like when they finish school．可知父母鼓励孩子们过自由富足的生活是不对的．故选：D．38．B．A表示不同国家的文化经验；B表示在巴西帮忙保护雨林；C表示和更多的人交朋友；D表示享用当地传统美食．根据语境和汉语意思在巴西帮忙保护雨林属于志愿者活动．故选：B39．C．根据语境The young people are now looking for more worthy experiences．可知在间隙年，年轻人有助于改变世界．故选：C40．B．根据语境Many young people，when they finish school at the age of 18，take a gap yearbefore they go to university．可知文章说的是间隙年的事．故选：B【点评】本题考查的是一篇社会文化类阅读理解，首先要通读全文，了解文章大意，再熟悉题干和选项，然后根据语境逐一选出答案．最后在检查一遍，查缺补漏．BAre you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids to?

AImagine one day, the water taps(水龙头) in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn’t enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family’s shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?Probably not. But that’s what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply(供应). Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told Times: “In a good week we’ll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water—at very high prices. “A lot of people can’t afford it,” she said.The average (平均) person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic（立方）meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty(贫困) line of 1,000 cubic meters.The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.1．_____________ is the name of the capital city of Yemen.A. SanaB. LahejC. HannanD. Times2．A report shows that Sana will have ____________ as early as 2025.A. enough drinking water to useB. no drinking water to useC. no private companiesD. more water pollution3．What does the underlined word “shortage” in the third paragraph mean in Chinese?A. 充足B. 短缺C. 干旱D. 需求4．We can infer(推断) from the passage that _____________.A. the poor don’t have to worry about the water supplyB. the 18-year-old boy is from a poor familyC. private companies make a lot of moneyD. Lahej is a beautiful place5．Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?A. How to Save WaterB. How to Make Use of SeawaterC. How People Use Water FullyD. Yemen is Facing Serious Water Shortage【答案】1．A 2．B 3．B 4．C 5．D【解析】试题分析：这篇短文给我们讲述了现在水资源的缺乏，尤其提到了也门这个国家，根据一项报告，也门的首都萨那到2025年的时候，就将没有饮用水了。
