2020年广东省中考英语阅读理解B篇专练(10篇)有答案

2020年广东省中考英语阅读理解B篇专练(一)Researchers have studied left-handedness for at least 150 years.However, what makes a person become left-handed remains unknown, although there are many theories about it.A recent UK study of unborn babies found that handedness might develop before their births.About nine out of ten unborn babies preferred to put their right hand into their mouths.Another finding is that mothers who are over 40 at the time of a child’s birth are 128% more likely to have a left-handed baby than a woman in her twenties.Since about 90% people are right-handed, left-handed people do go through some difficulties.As our writing runs from left to right, it is hard for a left-handed person to write without smudging (模糊) the ink.What’s more, most tools such as scissors and kitchen knives are designed for use with the right hand.It can be dangerous if they are operated with the left hand.In the past, left-handed children were forced to use their right hand.Luckily, now fewer people have a bias against left-handers.Left-handed children are no longer looked down upon in school.Some shops sell products for left-handers, such as left-handed guitars and even a left-handed computer mouse.Since 1976, there has been an unusual day for left-handers. International Left-Handers Day is celebrated on August 13th every year.It draws people’s attention to the challenges left-handers face in a world full of right-handers.More and more people have realized left-handedness is nothing strange.Some of the most famous left handed people include Mark Twain, Winston Churchill, Barack Obama and Bill Gates.( )1. A baby may develop left-handedness when ____________.A.nine out of ten babies do soB.his mum is in her twenties at his birthC.his mum gives birth to him at an older ageD.he puts his right hand into his mouth often( )2. One problem for left-handed people is that ____________.A.their handwriting is awfulB.people think they are dangerousC.kitchen knives are too big for their left handsD.many things are made only for right-handers( )3. The underlined word “bias”means ____________ in Chinese in this passage.A.态度B.偏见C.恐惧D.偏好( )4. From the passage, we know that left-handed children ____________ in the past.A.lived a comfortable lifeB.were not considered normalC.were very popular at schoolD.could use products for left-handers( )5. The best title of this passage is ____________.A.International Left-Handers DayB.Challenges for Left-handersC.Left-handedness, Nothing StrangeD.Reasons for Left-handedness(二)Your house may have an effect on the shape of your body.Experts say the way you design (设计) your home could play a role in whether you put on the pounds or keep them off.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.Here are some ways to change your home into part of your diet plan.Open the curtains (窗帘) and turn up the lights.Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less awkward (尴尬的) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lights and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors.Research suggests warm colors make us eat more.In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed (消化) 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing , while cold colors make us feel less hungry.So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock—or the radio.People who eat slowly seem to consume about 70fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals.Begin paying attention to the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes.And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat.If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes.Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake (摄取量) jumps by 14 percent.And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid (液体) into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny (极瘦的) glass.( )1. The passage is especially helpful for those who care about ____________.A.house buyingB.their body shapeC.healthy dietsD.their home comforts( )2. A home environment in blue can help people ____________.A.take in food betterB.burn more caloriesC.reduce food intakeD.feel less awkward( )3. The underlined word “appetizing”probably means ____________ in the passage.A.精致的B.恶心的C.饱腹的D.开胃的( )4. People are advised to ____________ at mealtimes.A.eat quicklyB.play fast musice smaller spoonsD.turn down the lights( )5. The best title for the passage is ____________.A.Ways of Serving DinnerB.Is Your House Making You Fat?C.Effects of Self-awarenessD.Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?(三)Animals can move from place to place,but plants cannot.When an animal is under attack,it can run away or fight back.Plants certainly cannot run away,and they have no teeth or claws (爪子).But plants can protect themselves in both physical and chemical ways.Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away.For example,the leaves of the holly (冬青) have sharp prickles (刺) that discourage grass-eating animals.Holly leaves on lower places have more prickles than leaves on upper places.This is because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach.Some plants,such as the oak trees (橡树),have thick and hard leaves that are difficult for animals to eat.Some grasses may contain a sandy material,and eating such grasses wears down the animals’teeth.Many plants also have chemical defenses.Some plants produce chemicals that taste bitter (苦) or cause an unpleasant reaction.Some plants may fight against an attack by increasing the production of these chemicals.When a worm bites a tobacco leaf (烟叶),the leaf produces a chemical smell.Many plants depend on both physical and chemical defenses.A certain plant in China,for instance,has prickly leaves,and each prickle has poisonous water (毒液).Only one experience with this kind of plant will teach an animal to stay away from it in the future.( )1. A plant ____________ when it is under attack.A.can protect itselfB.can run awayC.can fight backD.must die( )2. According to the passage, the leaves of the holly have sharp prickles because ____________.A.they are beautiful to watchB.they stop people from pickingC.they stop grass-eating animalsD.they are lower( )3. An oak tree can protect itself because ____________.A.it has leaves with sharp pricklesB.it has leaves with a sandy materialC.it has thick and hard leavesD.its leaves taste bitter( )4. What does the underlined word “sandy”mean in Chinese?A.含盐的B.坏掉的C.含沙的D.腐烂的( )5. The main idea of this passage is ____________.A.holly has its own ways to keep animals awayB.some plants’leaves can protect themC.several ways to protect plantsD.plants can protect themselves in their own ways(四)A caterpillar (毛毛虫) that eats plastic bags could hold the key to solving plastic pollution,scientists say.Researchers at Cambridge University have discovered that the caterpillar which eats beeswax (蜂蜡),can also degrade (降解) plastic.Experiments show the insect can break down the chemical bonds (键) of plastic in a similar way to absorbing beeswax.Each year,about 80 million tons of the plastic are produced around the world.The plastic is used to make shopping bags,food packaging,one-off raincoat and other things,but it can take hundreds of years to degrade completely.However,caterpillars can make holes in a plastic bag in under an hour.“The caterpillar will be the starting point.We need to understand the details under which this processoperates.We hope to provide the technical solution to cutting down the problem of plastic waste,”the scientist said.And the scientists who discovered it want to speed up the process of discovering the chemical secrets behind the natural degradation of plastic.They think something in the caterpillar—as well as the insect itself—might play a role in breaking down plastic.If the chemical process can be found out,it could lead to a solution to managing plastic waste in the environment.“We are planning to use this finding in a practical way to get rid of plastic waste,working towards a solution to saving our oceans and rivers,”said the scientist.“However,we should not feel good to dump plastic on purpose in our environment just because we now know how to degrade it.”( )1. Scientists think the caterpillar hold the key to solving plastic pollution because ____________.A.it is fed on beeswaxB.it can be done experimentsC.it can degrade plasticD.it makes no waste( )2. Plastic is used for ____________.A.making shopping bagsB.food packagingC.one-off raincoatsD.all of the above( )3. The key point of the solution is that ____________.A.the caterpillar is a key point of the researchB.the chemical process which degrades the plasticC.the caterpillar plays a key role in breaking down plasticD.how to speed up the discovering of the chemical secrets( )4. The underlined word “dump”means ____________ in Chinese.A.购买B.售卖C.扔掉D.降解( )5. What is the best title of this passage?A.How caterpillars degrade plasticB.Scientists are working towards plastic degradationC.Scientists have found the chemical processD.Caterpillars may help to solve plastic pollution(五)What is the worst disease in the world? Many people might say it is cancer (癌症).Cancer will kill about 9.6 million people in the world this year, according to the World Health Organization.Scientists have been working to find ways to beat cancer.A lot of progress has been made in this field.James P Allison from the US and Japanese researcher Tasuku Honjo discovered a new kind of cancer treatment that earned them the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in October.The new treatment can make our immune systems (免疫系统) strong enough to effectively fight cancer cells.It is hoped that this treatment can be used to treat most cancers in the future.This is not the only recent improvement in cancer treatment.In November, the US Food and Drug Administration approved a new cancer drug called Vitrakvi.Instead of being effective only for treating specific types of cancer, this drug can be used to treat 17 different kinds of cancer, including lung cancer and breast (乳腺) cancer, USA Today reported.Finding cancer as early as possible is the best way to beat it.To check people for cancer, doctors must collect tissue (组织) from a patient’s tumor (肿瘤) and test it.This process can take a long time.But in December, scientists from the University of Queensland in Australia developed a simple cancer test that can detect (检测) cancer in a patient’s blood.The test takes less than 10 minutes.The test is about 90 percent accurate , the Guardian reported.With all of these treatments, cancer can be effectively controlled.Honjo believes most kinds of cancer will become treatable by 2050.“Even if we cannot completely eliminate (消除) the tumor, we can survive while still having part of a tumor,”Honjo said at a press conference in Stockholm, Sweden, in December.( )1. ____________ won the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.A.James P AllisonB.Tasuku HonjoC.VitrakviD.James P Allison and Tasuku Honjo( )2. Which of the following is TRUE about the new cancer treatment?A.It was discovered in October, 2018.B.It can be used to treat all the cancers in the future.C.It is the only recent improvement in cancer treatment.D.It can make our immune systems strong enough to effectively fight cancer cells.( )3. The underlined word “accurate”probably means ____________ in Chinese.A.有风险的B.准确的C.错误的D.有误差的( )4. According to the passage, the best way to beat cancer is to ____________.A.find it as early as possibleB.eliminate the tumor completelyC.detect it in the patient’s bloodD.discover a new treatment( )5. The passage is mainly about ____________.A.the great progress made to beat cancerB.a new cancer treatmentC.the best way to beat cancerD.two famous scientists(六)For us humans, one of the greatest experiences is to taste all kinds of delicious food.But for penguins, they cannot get a taste of this happiness.That’s because penguins can’t actually taste the delicious flavors (味道)of their favorite food—fish!Scientists from the University of Michigan examined the genome (基因组)of five species of penguins.They found that no one can taste umami (鲜味),the flavor of meat or fish,the BBCreported. Many animals have five basic tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter and umami.But according to genetic data, penguins are believed to have only sour and salty tastes.These findings are surprising and puzzling.And scientists don’t have a good explanation for them.But they have a few ideas.First, one of the umami genes doesn’t work in cold temperatures.“It’s about zero degrees when they eat cold fish,”Zhang Jianzhi,the lead scientist, told the Daily Mail, so even if the penguins had a functional (功能的)gene, it might not work when they needed it.Second, penguins’tongues (舌头) are very special which may have something to do with their lack of taste.Instead of being covered with taste buds which help to taste food, penguins’tongues are very spiky .This is better for them to hold slippery (滑的) fish than tasting them.One study even showed that some types of penguins don’t even have taste buds (味蕾).However, penguins seem to be managing just fine.“Their behavior of swallowing food whole, and their tongue structure and function, suggest that penguins need no taste perception,”said Zhang.( )1. How many tastes do penguins have?A.Four.B.Three.C.Two.D.Five.( )2. From the passage, we can learn that ____________.A.temperatures can decide the umami genes of penguinsB.the umami genes in penguins would work when neededC.penguins’umami genes work well in cold temperaturesD.penguins’tongues are very slippery( )3. The underlined word “spiky”means ____________ in the passage.A.圆滑的B.美味的C.钉子似的D.软绵绵的( )4. All of the following decide that penguins need no taste perception EXCEPT ____________.A.they always swallow food wholeB.they live in cold temperaturesC.their tongue function is differentD.their tongue structure is special( )5. The study finds that ____________.A.different penguins have their own favorite fishB.penguins have different genomes for the five tastesC.penguins don’t have any of the five basic tastesD.penguins can’t taste the flavor of fish(七)Artificial intelligence (人工智能), or AI in short, is the science of giving computers and machines ability to think and work like humans.AI scientists and engineers have made a lot of cool technologies.AI is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces.As a result, facial recognition (识别) is used a lot in the world.Chinese police use this technology to identify criminals (罪犯).Once they caught a criminal when he attended a concert.It also checks the ID of ride-hailing (网约车) drivers and lets people pay for things with a smile.AI is also used in self-driving cars, which are believed to be the future of driving.Most drivers may wave or nod at passers-by to let them cross the street, but self-driving cars don’t have this ability.Car makers are testing a light signal system to help them “speak”to humans.The system can show what self-driving cars will do.For example, if a driverless car is yielding (让路), it will flash two white lights side to side.A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up.Service Robots also show you how powerful AI is.Imagine this—you come back home from school and your robot housekeeper is waiting for you at the door.After dinner, he teaches you to play the piano, just like a real music teacher.Such thoughts will soon happen in the real world.In the future, more and more service robots will become good home helpers.AI is so powerful that it can help human beings and even replace us in many jobs.( )1. According to the passage, facial recognition is used for ____________.A.driving carsB.making people smileC.calling the policeD.checking people’s information( )2. The underlined word “identify”probably means____________ in Chinese.A.减少B.鉴定C.消灭D.帮助( )3. In the future, a self-driving car may communicate with humans by ____________.A.waving to themB.speaking to themC.nodding at themD.flashing lights( )4. Which technology is used in real life according to the passage?A.Service Robots at school.B.Robots as ride-hailing drivers.C.Facial recognition for payment.D.Light signals for self-driving cars.( )5. What can we learn from the passage?A.People use AI in many different ways.B.AI will take the place of human beings in all jobs.C.Self-driving cars will be able to talk like humans.D.A criminal was caught for inventing facial recognition.(八)Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone?If yes, you’re not alone.These days, many people are facing the stress in the use of mobile phones.They reach for their mobile phones when they wake up in the morning, and keep checking their social media apps to get the latest updates (更新).A report from Google shows that 70 percent of people don’t want to spend much time on their phones.This is why Google introduced an app called Dashboard for the new Android operating system (安卓操作系统).This new app includes functions (功能) that help users manage the time.For example, users can see how many times they’ve unlocked their phone, how many times they’ve checked their social media apps, and how much time they spend on each app every day.Once the users see this information, they’ll be able to make some changes.With the App Timer (计时) function, users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day.After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to use the app until the next day.And with another function, the app gets incoming calls silent when the user puts the phone face down.If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours on their phones, these new functions are just one way of doing that.After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps? The easiest answer would be just to use your willpower.( )1. The users’stress comes from ____________.A.too many updates of the appsB.too many functions of the appC.too much information they receiveD.too much time they spend on the phone( )2. Which of the following is NOT included in Dashboard’s functions?A.It stops the users from using their willpower.B.It checks how much time the users spend on apps.C.It lists how many times the users have unlocked the phone.D.It shows how many times the users have checked social media apps.( )3. The underlined word “limit”in Paragraph 4 means ____________ in Chinese.A.目的B.标准C.许可D.限制( )4. What does the writer think of Dashboard?A.Its design is perfect.B.It may be helpful to some people.C.It needs more functions.D.It has too many functions.( )5. What’s the main idea of the passage?A.How to use your mobile phone correctly.B.To introduce a new app to help users manage the time.C.How to manage your time on phone.D.Many people are facing the stress in the use of mobile phones.(九)Now more and more people have cars.The car makes our life more convenient,and does some bad to us as well.Driving for more than two hours a day negatively (消极地) affects IQ levels,scientists warned.A recent study found that long time behind the wheel could speed up the effects of age on the brain.It might come as bad news for middle-aged drivers.The researchers said that the results could be explained by the fact that the mind is less active on long car journeys.The big project studied more than half a million British people aged from 37 to 73 over a period of five years.Out of these about 93,000 of them drove more than two or three hours a day.Researchers found that not only did these people have lower brainpower (脑力) to begin with but their IQ score went down more rapidly over the course of the study than those who did little or no driving.Bakrania,a medical expert at the University of Leicester,said,“We know thatregularly driving for more than two or three hours a day is bad for your heart.And this research suggests it is bad for your brain too,perhaps because your mind is less active in those hours.”Previous studies have found that long time of inactivity has a bad effect on brainpower.Dr.Bakrania’s research shows similar results for those who watched more than two hours of television a day.But the study also found using computers actually raised people’s cognitive (认知) skills, leading the scientist to suggest another possible factor for driving’s negative effects.( )1. Driving for a long time causes the brain to run slower because ____________.A.driving for long makes you tiredB.driving for long will kill more brain cellsC.the mind is less active on long car journeysD.the mind gets excited and happy on long car journeys( )2. ____________ people in the study drive more than two hours a day.A.9.3%B.18.6%C.81.4%D.90.7%( )3. The underlined word “inactivity”means ____________ in Chinese.A.活跃B.消极C.不活跃D.积极( )4. According to the passage,____________ is as bad for your brain as driving for long.A.reading for over two hoursing computers for less than two hoursC.sitting for over two hoursD.watching TV for over two hours( )5. What is the best title of this passage?A.Driving for long has bad effects on your brain.B.People who drive for long are usually stupid.C.You can be smarter if you never drive.D.Driving for long makes you less clever.(十)Getting the chance to hold a butterfly is a truly magical experience.Butterflies are shy, so you should consider yourself lucky if you get one to stay on your hand.Holding butterflies requires great care.Wash and dry your hands.Chemicals will do harm to butterflies’scales (鳞片), wings and bodies.So if you put on any sunscreen (防晒霜) before you go off to catch your butterfly, wash it off under the running water before touching them.Use sugar water.Butterflies have a sweet tooth.You may be able to get a butterfly to land on you without a net by making butterfly nectar (花蜜).You can make butterfly nectar by mixing 4 parts water and 1 part sugar together.While watching butterflies near flowers or plants,put a little bit of the sugar water on your hand.They may soon be attracted by the sweet smell and fly to your hand to feed.Remain very still.Butterflies are very skittish and will get frightened (惊吓) easily.If you want one to land on your hand and stay there for a while,be still and avoid any sudden movements.Be careful when holding a butterfly.While the butterfly is sitting on your hand,avoid petting it.Just try to watch its beauty without touching.Butterfly’s wings are covered in tiny scales.These scales give them their wing patterns (图案),and make them more aerodynamic (流线型的) when flying.When you touch their wings, they lose scales.If they lose these scales, they can still fly.However, the more scales they lose, the less aerodynamic they will be when flying.( )1. How many suggestions does the writer give on holding a butterfly?A.Three.B.Four.C.Five.D.Six.( )2. You should wash hands before holding a butterfly because ____________.A.butterflies like clean handsB.it can stop people getting sickC.sunscreen keeps butterflies awayD.sunscreen is harmful to butterflies( )3. The underlined word “skittish”means ____________ in Chinese in the passage.A.仔细的B.谨慎的C.胆小的D.速度快的( )4. What is important for a butterfly to fly aerodynamically according to the last passage?A.Scales.B.Wings.C.Wing patterns.D.Body.( )5. What can be the best title of this passage?A.Magical Experience with ButterfliesB.Advice on Holding a ButterflyC.Fun of Playing with ButterfliesD.Ways of Holding a Butterfly参考答案一:CDBBC 二:BCDCB三:ACCCD 四:CDBCD五:DDBAA 六:CACBD七:DBDCA 八: DADBB九:CBCDA 十:BBCAB。

2023年广东中考英语阅读理解B篇专题训练

2023年广东中考英语阅读理解B篇专题训练

2023年广东中考英语阅读理解B篇专题训练AJerry is a world-famous mountain climber. He has climbed many high mountains in the world. Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure (探险) in South America, covering 7,800 miles. He was even named adventurer of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2018.Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn't feel fulfilled. He asked himself,“Is it enough to climb the highest mountains? Am I doing something helpful? How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world?”Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples(样本) from places far away to do research.But scientists can't get there themselves as such places are hard to reach - only the bravest adventurers can make it.Jerry thought he could do something to help.He then came up with an idea.He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for scientists.By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life on MountQomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped scientists learn how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions.For Jerr y, this kind of adventure is most satisfying, “Such adventures have made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn’t important for me.What matters is doing something helpful while climbing mountains. There is still much more we can do.” Jerry said to a newspaper.1.What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?A.Jerry’s friends.B.Jerry’s achievements.C. High mountains.D. A geography magazine.2.What does the underlined word “fulfilled” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Satisfied.B.Lonely.C.Patient.D.Worried.3.Why did Jerry set up a team of top adventurers?A.To make friends.B.To help scientists.C.To study plants.D.To train scientists.4.Jerry’s and his friends’ adventures have changed.A.their hobbiesB.their friendshipC.their understanding of lifeD. their living conditions5.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.Dangerous Mountain ClimbingB.Important Scientific DiscoveriesC.Plants Found on High MountainsD.Adventures Turned into Something GreaterBAccording to a research. more than 130 billion pounds of uneaten food go to waste in Laura’s county each year. That is about 30% of the yearly food supply(供应). It is a sad fact, especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every day. she came up with an idea. She started a project tohelp her school dining hall to give away uneaten food to homeless shelters (庇护所) in her community. In the past three years, the same protect has spread to other schools and some fast food restaurants throughout the city. The project is calledFeed&Find, and has already fed thousands of people in her city.How does it work? Through an app, Feed&Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide. When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, theycan use the app to share the information about the food. A truck driver working for the project is then sent to pick it up and take it to a shelter.Pretty cool, right? It's not surprising that people in other cities have got in touch with Laura, to hoping that she could help develop similar projects for their communities.Some people, however, have concerns about the safety of the uneaten food. They think such food may not be clean enough.

Give yourrobot sensors (传感器):light sensors( eyes ), touch sensors (hands), chemical sensors(nose),hearing sensors(ears) and taste sensors (tongue).Movement A robot needs to be able to move around its environment. It can move on wheels,walk on legs or be driven by small engines(发动机). A robot can move either the whole body or just parts of it.Energy A robot needs to be able to power itself. Some robots might power itself with sunlight,some might wi th electricity, while others with the battery(电池).

Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away. That fish might not be so big after all! It’s jus t because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!What’s more, in deeper water, colors just don't seem as bright. In fact, it looks as if some colors are missing. Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths(波长) of lightthat are reflected(反射) from its surface. And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater. Let's take a bright red, yellow, and blue wet suit as an example. These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water. Watch carefully the changes in color as youdescend in the water. The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths, the longest among these three colors, are missing. As you go down deeper, thesame thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part. Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater, you will look terrible, like a ghost(鬼怪)!And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again!( )1. You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because_________.A. your eyesight is quite poorB. you arc not quick enoughC. it is not as close as it seemsD. it disappears very quickly( )2.The example of the wet suit is used to explain the change of_________ofan object underwater.A. the sizeB. the colorC. the positionD. the weight( )3.The underlined word “descend” probably means_________in Chinese in this passage.A.上升B. 漂浮C. 屏息D. 下潜( )4.Which of the following is true?A. A four-meler-long fish looks three meters long underwater.B.The wavelengths of red light arc longer than those of blue light.C.Much water will be taken in by the swimmer deep in the waterD.You will see a ghost if you go as deep as 6 to 9 meters into the sea( )5. The best title of this passage is_________.A. The Standard of Color UnderwaterB. The Direction of Light UnderwaterC. The Brightness of Color UnderwaterD. The Behavior of Light UnderwaterFPeople often think of the North Pole and the South Pole as similar frozen (冰凉)wastelands.They are both places with very cold temperatures and few people live there. However,the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine.The North Pole has no land,only thick ice. Temperatures seldom go above 32 F, at which water turns into ice. Most of the time, it stays below zero. In winter temperatures are usually as low as -30 F.Although conditions were very poor, people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole. About 100 yearsago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties. They reached the North Pole on March 8th,1909.It was really a hard trip for them.There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic(北极圈)on foot. People who stayed there may face many problems:very cold temperatures, sudden storms, and even hunger. Most of the area is uninhabited. Few people can live in such a difficult place.People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year, the ice would be thick and hard. However, this is not true in the Arctic. The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface. Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water called “leads”. Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes.( )1.This passages is probably from .A.a book reviewB. a science bookC. A school reportD. a computer magazine( )2.According to the passage, what happened about 100 years ago ?A.Two men succeeded in getting to the North PoleB.Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32 FC.The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worseD.The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures.( )3.What does the underlined word “uninhabited” probably mean in Chinese?A 气候恶劣的B 充满危险的C 困难重重的D 无人居住的( )4.The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is .A.That the temperature suddenly dropsB. that the water under the ice is frozenC. That the ocean water under the ice movesD. that the surface is covered with lots of ice( )5.What does this passage mainly talk about ?A.T he thick ice in the North PoleB.A difficult trip to the North PoleC.The real situation in the North PoleD.The differences between the North Pole and the South PoleGWhen people talk to each other, write letters or make phone calls, words of the spoken form of the written form can send any message they want to pass on.But besides words, do you know any other ways you can use to communicate with people? Rich expressions on your face can be one of them. A smile on your face shows that you are happy. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad or excited. Body languages can do the same job. When you put your hand up in class, the teacher knows that you want to say something or you may have some questions to ask. You shake your head from side to side and people know you are saying “no” or refuse others’ requirements. When you nod, people will understand that you are saying “yes” or agree to others’ opinions or suggestions.Other forms can also carry different messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop gives passengers on which bus to take. The flag language made by soldiers can pass different orders. Sound from the school bell tells the students and teachers when to begin or end a class. A photographer can use the photos he has taken to tell others about what he thinks of the world around him. Music and films also convey the feelings and ideas of the musicians and the directors. So next time when you see a piece of art or listen to some music, take it as communication with its creator and try to get the meaning behind it.( )1.When people want to use the words to communicate with others, they ______.A. write lettersB. cry aloudC. keep silentD. make friends( )2.According to the passage you just need to______ if you agree to others’ suggestions.A.close your eyesB. put up your handC.move your head up and downD. shake your head from side to side( )3.Through a photo we may know______.A. which bus can be takenB. what the orders mean for soldiersC. how the photographer sees the worldD. when the students should have a class( )4.The underline world convey probably means______in the passage.A. 掩饰B. 传递C. 克制D. 爆发( )5.The best title for the passage may be______.A. Spoken and Written LanguagesB. Forms of CommunicationC. Facial Expressions and GesturesD. Suggestions on CommunicationHIt is reported that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computes to China.Such a thing can be founded every day although it is against international laws. Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones send from Japan.Things like these are called electronic waste, or e-waste. Dealing with is not an easy job because dangerous poison like mercury(汞)and lead (铅)can be found in them. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be deal with safely. But at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really goes in the earth.Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong province is one of them. This town is named as”the e-waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5mllion kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million years. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poison in e-waste find their way into the environment. Plastic is burned outdoors and chemical water is poured into rivers, Greenpeace, an environmental group, has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted.The Chinese government wants the country to develop, but in a way that doesn’t do harm to the environment and people’s life. This year,China presents a new protection law, the strictest one we have ever had. Computer complies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. This is because the complies that make computers know best to deal with them safely.Hopefully, the problem with e-waste will be solved in near future.( )1.The e-waste found in Hong Kong last month was from________.A.FranceB.JapanC.GermanyD. Australia( )2.The underlined word buried probably means ______in the passage.A.焚烧B.障碍C.回收D.掩埋( )3.The town of Guiyu in Guangdong Province_________.A.is the e-capital of the worldB.has serious e-waste pollutionC. Deals with e-waste safelyD.speeds much money on e-waste( )4.This year,the Chinese government__________.A.tried to change people’s lifeB.closed some computer companiesC.make a new environment protection lawD.asked people to hand in their old computers( )5.The passage is mainly about________.A.the way in deal with e-wasteB.the cost of burning e-wasteC.the e-waste problem in ChinaD.the need to pass a law against e-wasteITo us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade(遮蔽)against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And therewas a strange thing connected with its use : it became a symbol of honor and power(权力). In theFar East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was incommon use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrellaas protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the useof the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century.And again it became a symbol of power.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors. ( )1. Ancient people first used umbrellas as ____.A. a symbol of honorB. protection against the sunC. a symbol of powerD. protection against the rain( )2. According to the passage, the umbrella was probably first used in ancient ______.A. Egypt .B. BabylonC. RomeD. China( )3. The underlined word royal might mean in Chinese.A.皇室的B.富裕的C.中产的D.平民的( )4. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. The ancient Greeks used the umbrella in their daily life.B. Europeans hardly used the umbrella during the middle ages.C. The umbrellas for women were made colorful in ancient times.D. The style of the umbrella hasn't changed a lot since it was invented( )5. This passage is mainly about ________.A. the sales of the umbrellaB. the differences among umbrellasC. the invention of the umbrellaD. the history and the use of the umbrellaJIn nature, you may see many insects (昆虫)and animals of different colors. Have you ever wondered why?Locusts are super delicious food for birds,but it is not always an easy job for birds to catch them.It is neither because locusts are good jumpers or runners nor because they are smarter than their enemies. The reason is that the colors of locusts change with the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are young,locusts look green. But when autumn comes, locusts change to the yellow and brown color as crops do.Brown bears,tigers and other animals move quietly through forests. They can’t be seen easily by the ir enemies. This is because they have colors similar to the trees. For the same reason, polar bears that live on a land of snow and ice are white. Butterflies and bees living among the flowers are colorful like flowers. Soil insects are mostly dark-colored and they live under the soil(土壤)in a dark and wet environment. However, insects with colors different from plants can easily be found and eaten by others. So in order to survive,they have to hide themselves in the daytime and appear only at night.Have you ever noticed some even stranger acts? The ink fish in the sea can send out some very black ink when it faces danger. As the ink spreads over , its enemies will find themselves suddenly in a dark world. At the same time the ink fish immediately swims away. That is how it keeps itself safe though it is not strong at all.( )1.It is not easy for birds to catch locusts because____________. .A .locusts are good runners B. locusts can jump very highC. locusts are smarter than birdsD. locusts can change their color( )2.According to the passage, most soil insects_________A.do not have bright colorsB. change their colors with the soilC. do not live in a dark and wet environmentD. eat colorful insects like butterflies and bees( )3.What’s the meaning of the underlined word”survive” in the passage?A. 繁殖B. 产卵C. 觅食D. 生存( )4.The ink fish_______so that its enemies will not see it .A. changes its colorB. makes the water around it blackC. appears only at nightD. hides itself in the sea rocks( )5. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Some insects and animals have different skills.B. Some insects and animals are clever than we think.C. Some insects and animals use colors to protect themselves.D. Some insects and animals can get used to the environment easily.。

阅读理解BLanguage students often think they have memory problems. They worry because they can't remember words. In fact, the problem usually isn't with their memory. The problem is with how they study.To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short­term and long­term. When you see, hear, or read something, it goes first into short­term memory. But short­term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long­term memory. Your long­term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. And like a library, it's organized(有条理的). When you put away a book—or memory—you can't just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can invent a little story about the word, with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is height, you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make th e meaning of words stronger in your long­term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it.1. In the writer's opinion, students can't remember words because ________.A. they are too worriedB. they don't use a proper wayC. they have memory problemsD. they don't like to study2. The underlined word long­term means ________ in Chinese.A. 长的学期B. 长期的C. 长的术语D. 长的条款3. The long­term memory ________.A. lasts for only a few secondsB. is like a very big lake with lots of fishesC. is like a very big library with many, many booksD. is bad for students' study4. According to the passage, you can memorize vocabulary by ________.A. reading as often as possibleB. writing e­mails to the people you knowC. taking many photos about themD. making pictures in your mind with the words5. This passage mainly tells us about ________.A. how to improve ways to remember wordsB. language students' problems in studyC. shory­term and long­term memoryD. how to make the meaning of words stronger三、【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。

广东中考试题研究英语(人教)第三部分话题3一阅读理解B

Passage 1(201旷州)Getting electricity has always been a problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa,a small village in Peru, South America. However, things went from bad to worse in March 2015 after heavy rains damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce.Luckily, researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lima,Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful solution. Theymade a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which canbe easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. Thelamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it tolight up an LED light bulb.While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the sciencebehind the idea is quite simple. As plants create their food(using thesun's energy, water and chemicalsfrom the soil), they also produce wastewhich they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste andthey produce electrons — the building blocks of electrical energy. The UTteam put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep itin the lamp's batteries for later use. The researchers say a single chargecan power a 50watt LED light for two hours —enough time for localvillagers to get their eveningwork done.The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the villagers of Nuevo Saposoain October 2015. So far, they have been a huge success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially small rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.1.What are the problems of oil lamps according to Paragraph 1?A.They are difficult to use and create pollution.B.They are expensive to buy and easily damaged.C.They are difficult to repair and produce little light.D.They are expensive to use and can be bad for health.2.The electricity made by the Plant Lamp comes from—A.plant foodB. plant wasteC. the soil's heatD. the sun's energy3.What is true about the Plant Lamp?A.It can be made by local people.B.It is much easier to use than oil lamps.C.It can produce all the electricity the village needs.D.The things it needs to make electricity are easy to find.4.The Plant Lamp's inventor believesit could be most helpful for.A.rainforest communitiesB. carsC. poor people in citiesD. farmers5.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To report on a new invention.B.To explain a new scientific theory.C.To describe how electricity is made.D.To discuss the problems of poor villages.Passage 1【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。

2020年广东中考英语阅读理解B篇专练试卷 (有答案解析)

2020年广东中考英语阅读理解B篇专练试卷 (有答案解析)

2020年中考英语阅读理解B篇专练从每小题所给的四个选项中, 选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

(一)English has become a language that is most widely used in the world. So which country, not including English-speaking countries, speaks English best? And where does China rank (排名)?Swedish language education company EF published their 2017 English Proficiency Index (熟练度指标). The Netherlands ranked first, followed by Sweden and Denmark. The rankings are based on English reading and listening test results.According to the index, the English proficiency in China is still low, ranking 36th. Out of the whole country, people in Shanghai are the best English speakers. They speak better English than Italians and French. Hong Kong and Beijing follow Shanghai as China’s next best English-speaking cities.“Shanghai and Beijing rank high because they are international cities, ”EF senior manager Christopher McCormick said. “However, across China, proficiency in English is different from east to west. ”China has 400 million English learners, reported China Daily. However, the teaching of English in some areas is not very good. According to People’s Daily Online, there are seven primary schools in She Tianqiao town in Hunan, but only one English teacher. Many students still learn English by rote memorization .Sebastian Magnusson, an officer at the Swedish embassy (大使馆)in Beijing, gave some advice. Swedish people speak English well and Magnusson himself is also fluent in Chinese. He said TV programs, movies and even computer games could be learning tools. “Do not limit it to textbooks. What matters most is to use what you’ve learned, ”Magnusson said.( )1. _____ ranked first in the 2017 English Proficiency Index.A. SwedenB. The NetherlandsC. DenmarkD. The United Kingdom( )2. The underlined words “rote memorization”probably mean _____ in the passage.A. 死记硬背B. 查漏补缺C. 联想记忆D. 分类记忆( )3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Half of the Chinese population is learning English now.B. Chinese people have high English proficiency levels.C. Some Chinese schools are short of English teachers.D. Rote memorization is the best way to learn English.( )4. From Magnusson’s words, we can learn that _____.A. English is difficult for younger students to learnB. learning English from textbooks is not a good methodC. learners should put what they have learned into practiceD. learners should get help from their teachers and parents( )5. The passage is mainly about _____.A. which country speaks English bestB. the English proficiency in ChinaC. the English teachers in ChinaD. the best English speakers in China(二)Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all! It is said that our body movements communicate about 50 percent of what we really mean while words only express 7 percent. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying…Arms. How you hold your arms shows how open you are to the people you meet. If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way. Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies. If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you’re unhappy!Head. When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are a monitor in class, you can also take on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little.Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous ortelling lies. If you are at interviews, try to keep them still!Posture (姿势). A good posture makes you feel better about yourself. If you are feeling down, you normally don’t sit straight. This makes breathing more difficult, which can make you feel nervous or uncomfortable.Mouth. When you are thinking, you often shut your mouth. You might also use this position to hold back an angry comment(评论)you don’t wish to show. However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know you’re not pleased.( )1. When someone is keeping his arms behind his back, he tries to tell you that _____.A. he is outgoingB. he is angryC. he is not afraidD. he is cool( )2. The underlined word “upsets ”probably means _____ in Chinese.A. 喜爱B. 崇拜C. 讨厌D. 惹恼( )3. If you want to appear confident, you should_____.A. move your arms a lotB. keep your head levelC. move your head a littleD. cross your arms behind( )4. _____ tells someone is nervous.A. Shutting your mouthB. Sitting very straightC. Moving your legs around a lotD. Keeping the arms to the sides of the body( )5. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. Body Language and WordsB. Arms Tell More Than LegsC. Facial Expressions Tell the TruthD. Simple Movements Show Your Thoughts(三)Many Chinese people will wonder what presents to get for their moms on Mother’s Day, but not many know Mother’s Day is actually a festival from overseas.Mother’s Day originated(起源)in America during the early 20th century. The festival spread to China as early as the 1980s and was widely accepted.Why did a foreign festival become popular in China? In fact, Chinese traditional culture has always encouraged filial devotion to parents. There are many stories which show filial respect in ancient China.For example, the story of “Taste Liquid(液体的)Medicine for Mother”tells us the filial virtue(美德)of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty. His mother had been sick for three years. He often stayed up by her bedside and cared for her day and night. He tasted the liquid medicine first before she drank it. Also, mother’s love is a repeated subject in Chinese ancient poems, like Song of the Parting Son by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Now this poem is still a must in the school textbooks. Children in China are brought up with the education of filial devotion.On special days, people often use roses or forget-me-nots to express love. Carnations are considered as the perfect flowers for mothers around the world, but few know that China has its own for mothers—the tiger lily.Love for mothers can have different ways of expression. What matters most is love, not the festival itself. What mothers truly want is perhaps just a simple expression of love from their children.You may find it difficult to make the plan now. Don’t worry. All you need is just a rough(粗略的)one. Once you enter the senior high school, you’ll get a chance to make it better with the help of your teachers. And your personal growth plan may change with your age, your interests and the social development. So take your time and I believe you will grow into an excellent young man.Best wishes!Yours,Li Fang( )1. Mother’s Day spread to China _____.A. in the 1920sB. in the 1980sC. in the Western Han DynastyD. in the Tang Dynasty( )2. The poem of Song of the Parting Son is mainly about _____.A. the filial virtue of Emperor WenB. caring for the oldC. traditional Chinese medicineD. a mother’s love for her son( )3. Mother’s Day is popular in China mainly because of _____.A. its wide spread in many countriesB. our ancient stories of respecting parentsC. our traditional cultural valuesD. its simple way of expressing love( )4. What does the underlined word “filial ”mean in Chinese?A. 孝顺的B. 叛逆的C. 诚实的D. 服从的( )5. What a mother truly wants on Mother’s Day may be _____.A. a big dinnerB. a celebration partyC. greetings of the festivalD. expensive presents(四)In Britain, Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th, which is the following day after Christmas Day. However, strictly speaking, Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is a public holiday. That means it’s a non-working day in the whole of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday.The exact origin (起源)of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas box was placed by a priest (神父)on each ship. Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box. It was sealed and kept on board until the ship came home safely. Then the box was handed over to the priest in exchange for the saying of thanks for the success of thesailing. The priest wouldn’t open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.One more thought is about the “Alms Box”placed in every church on Christmas Day. Worshippers (做礼拜的人)put gifts for the poor into it. These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas. That is why that day became known as Boxing Day.Today, many companies, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating (捐赠)their time, services and money to food banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping families in need. Besides, spending time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now.( )1 . If Christmas Day is on a Saturday, Boxing Day will be celebrated on_____.A. December 25thB. December 26thC. December 27thD. December 28th( )2. Sailors dropped money into the Christmas box in order to_____.A. save the poorB. pray for the priestC. discover new landD. pray for sailing safely( )3. The underlined word “sealed ”probably means _____ in Chinese in the passage.A. 密封B. 悬挂C. 归还D. 传递( )4. The following activities can show the traditional spirit of Boxing Day EXCEPT_____.A. to offer gifts to the poorB. to support families in needC. to spend time with familyD. to give money to food banks( )5. The purpose of the passage is_____.A. to praise the kindness of priestsB. to introduce the origin of Boxing DayC. to call on people to help the poorD. to compare Boxing Day with Christmas Day(五)The first true railway is thought to have been made at Broseley in Shropshire, England before 1605. The railway would carry coal(煤炭)for James Clifford from his mines, and would push others like Huntington Beaumont to create his own railway, which was able to pull 280—330 pounds of coal with a single horse. These rails continued through the 18th century, and would become more common as the years went on.Steam power created the first train, and thus the modern railroad was born in 1784. James Watt, who was a Scottish inventor, made improvements to Thomas Newcomen’s steam engine, which was used to move water out of mine. With these improvements, he could create smaller and smaller engines, finally patenting(申请专利)the design for the steam locomotive(机车)in 1784. The first working railway steam locomotive was made in the United Kingdom by Richard Trevithick in 1804. The world’s first railway journey took place on February 21st, 1804.In 1812 Matthew Murray created the first rack(齿轨) railway which was able to hold a train, and was followed in 1813 by Puffing Billy, made by Christopher Blackett and William Hedley and these were the first financially(经济上)successful trains. This led to easier transportation of goods and became one of the most important things of the Industrial Revolution(工业革命).( )1. _____ on the first true railway.A. Steam engines and trains ranB. Horses pulled coalC. James Clifford built coal minesD. Huntington Beaumont rode a horse( )2. James Watt was _____.A. the inventor of steam enginesB. the improver of steam enginesC. the designer of modern railroadsD. the creator of the first train( )3. Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened?①Steam locomotives were made.②A true railroad appeared in England.③The world’s first railway journey took place.④Railways became able to hold trains.A. ②①③④B. ①②③④C. ②①④③D. ②④③①( )4. The underlined word “transportation ” in the third paragraph means _____ in Chinese.A. 制造B. 研发C. 运输D. 销售( )5. Which may be the best title of the passage?A. The First Railway in the WorldB. Steam Engines and RailroadsC. The Birth of Modern RailroadsD. The Development of Railway(六)When you are curious(好奇)about something and want to know more about it, you can use the way of asking questions. Asking questions is the first step to make discoveries and find interesting answers. The following steps can guide you during the research.Step 1:Write down the subject that you are interested in on a piece of paper. Just get themain idea down. For example, you might write:Discover more about robots.Step 2:Stop and think for a moment about what you have already known about your subject. List what you have already known like the sentences below:The first robot appeared in the USA in 1959. A robot can do housework and act as a teacher. Sometimes a robot catches viruses and causes a lot of problems.Step 3:Ask and write down questions about the robots on the paper. What might robots be like in the future? What other things can robots do for people? What kind of power will robots possibly use in five years?Step 4:With your list of questions, you can now go to the nearest library or computer to begin your research. As you learn more about your subject, you will probably discover some new questions. For example, you might discover that robots can help scientists explore dangerous places, like the sea and outer space. How? What happened? Asking new questions can help you research your subject more widely.Remember that learning more always brings more questions.( )1 . What does the writer advise us to do when we’re curious about something?A. To read more books about it.B. To look it up in the dictionary.C. To turn to the teacher for help.D. To ask questions and find the answers.( )2 . In this passage, the writer tells us how to do research by giving us an example about_____.A. robotsB. librariesC. questionsD. scientists( )3. What does the underlined word “viruses ” possibly mean in Chinese?A. 主人B. 未来C. 病毒D. 理想( )4. You will probably discover some new questions if you _____.A. write down your subjectB. learn more about your subjectC. go to the libraryD. begin to ask questions( )5. What might be the best title for this passage?A. Doing Research On ScienceB. Finding More ProblemsC. Asking Good Questions While Doing ResearchD. Having Interesting Answers While Doing Research(七)Birth order—does it matter? Are you different because you are the first, second, or third child in your family—or maybe the last of nine?A study showed that first-borns have an average(平均的)IQ that is three points higher than people who fall into a different place in the birth order, perhaps because first-borns often help younger brothers and sisters, which improves their own skills. In 2007, an international organization of CEOs found that 43% of them are first-borns, 33% are middle children, and 23% are last-borns. First-borns are more likely(可能的)to be doctors and engineers and get higher pay.If first-borns are more successful, last-borns are generally more friendly. They are also more likely to be funny, possibly to get attention from all the bigger people at the dinner table. Mark Twain and Stephen Colbert were both the youngest in large families, and Jim Carrey was the youngest of four. According to a 2007 Time magazine article, “The Power of Birth Order”, last-borns are more likely to be artists and successful businessmen.Then there are the middle children. Many middle children experience less one-on-one(一对一)time with their parents. They often feel short-changed:The oldest gets more rights, and the youngest is “spoiled(宠坏的)”. Though they may be ignored(忽视), middle children are more likely to grow into outgoing adults.Many factors(因素)make us who we are, but if the research is correct, birth order may be one of the most important factors.( )1. _____ is most likely to be a CEO.A.

At the party, someone hoped to give America a special gift for the country’s hundredth birthday in 1876. Bartholdi was interested in the idea and suggested a big statue of some kind. Back home, he thought about it for the next six years.By 1871, Bartholdi had planned most of the details of the statue. It was going to be a lady called Liberty, who held a torch(火把)high over her head in her right hand and a book close to her body in her left hand. It seemed that she was lighting the way to freedom.But it was such a huge project that a large amount of money was needed. And also, for many reasons, Bartboldi and his team couldn’t finish it on time. The big statue wasn’t finished until June 1884. On July 22, 1885, it arrived in New York from France by water.

This was nearly a century before Christopher Columbus first set sail on his journey of discovery to America. His travels are so important that they are still studied today.Zheng He was born in Yunnan in 1371. He rose to become a trusted official of the Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.The emperor ordered Zheng He to visit and explore the land outside China. His task was to build relations and set up trade routes (路线)with foreign countries. In a few years, he built several treasure fleets. They were big enough to carry 25, 000 people as well as a very large number of goods. And they were one of the largest fleets to explore different regions (地区)of the world.From 1405 to 1433, Zheng He went on seven trips and visited Southeast Asia, the Middle East and even the east coast of Africa. It seemed that nowhere was too far for him to visit. These trips allowed China to trade valuable goods like gold, silver and silk. At the end of each journey, Zheng He returned with many things that had not been seen in China before, such as a giraffe from Africa.

Passage 1(2016广州)Getting electricity has always been a problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa, a small village in Peru, South America. However, things went from bad to worse in March 2015 after heavy rains damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce.Luckily, researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light up an LED light bulb.While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the science behind the idea is quite simple. As plants create their food(using the sun's energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons —the building blocks of electrical energy. The UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in the lamp's batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can power a 50-watt LED light for two hours —enough time for local villagers to get their eveningwork done.The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October 2015. So far, they have been a huge success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially small rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.1. What are the problems of oil lamps according to Paragraph 1?A. They are difficult to use and create pollution.B. They are expensive to buy and easily damaged.C.

The electricity made by the Plant Lamp comes from________.A. plant foodB. plant wasteC. the soil's heatD. the sun's energy3. What is true about the Plant Lamp?A. It can be made by local people.B. It is much easier to use than oil lamps.C. It can produce all the electricity the village needs.D. The things it needs to make electricity are easy to find.4. The Plant Lamp's inventor believes it could be most helpful for________.A. rainforest communitiesB. carsC. poor people in citiesD. farmers5. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To report on a new invention.B. To explain a new scientific theory.C. To describe how electricity is made.D. To discuss the problems of poor villages.Passage 1【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。
