The immune system is the body's defence system that protects you from illness and disease caused by the pathogens.The immune system is made up of non﹣specialized defences such as skin, tears and the acidic juice produced by the stomach,keeping you from the pathogens. It also has some highly specializde defences, which are different kinds of immune cells,grouped into phagocytes and lymphocytes.Phagocytes are a type of white bloodcell .They are swimming around in your blood stream ,always on the lookout for antigens ﹣the pathogens that have entered your bodies . Whenever they see one, ther will eatit . However, some antigens are hard to find and kill.Then lymphocytes, which are also white blood cells and the main types are B cells, T helper cells and T killercells , Will be the killers of the sncaky antigens.B cells , T helper and T killer cells work together to find and kill these antigens . B cells produce substances, called antibodies, which stick to the antigen. Whenthat happens, it will tell the T helper cells to come over and either : 1. help the B cells kill the antigen, or 2 . call the phagocytes or T killer cells to move in for thekill. Once a B cell or a T cell attacks an antigen, they create cells to"remember"it . Those"memory cells"hang out in your blood if they see the sameantigen again , they quickly recognize, it so your immune system can act faster atkilling it.The immune system is more powerful than you probably imagine. Scientists from the University of Pennsylvania recently took immune cells from three patients withleukemia,then genetically cheanged them into"serial Keller"cells to attack cancer cells . The study was small but the results were groundbraking . The modified immune cells increascd at least 1, 000 times in the body and killed all the cancercells . Therefore,more"memory cells"were created.The immune system can be developed. Eating lean protein food〔 beef , beans〕and food rich in vitamins A, C, and E 〔 sweet potatoes, carrots〕,taking a 30﹣minute walk every day and reducing your stress levels, etc .will help you achieveit .37. What can the immune system do?A. Keep you from antibodies.B. Protect you against antigens.C. Make your bodies werk and sick.D. Help microbes enter your bodies38. How are the sneaky antigens found and killed?A. Phagocytes , B,T helper and T killer cells work togetherB. Skin , tears , acidic juice and immune cells work togetherC. B cells create"memory cells"to swim around in the bloodD. B cells produce antibodies to tell T helper and T killer cells39. What does the underlined word"it"in the last paragraph refer to?A. The immune system can be made more powerfulB. Less antigens can be killed by the immune systemC. White blood cells act less quickly in the immune systemD. The immune system can be changed into the"serial killer"40. This article is mainly about.A. the types of white blood cellsB. a research report about human healehC. the cause of illness and discaseD. an introduction to the immune system.四、词汇运用( 此题有 15 小题,每题 5 分,共 15 分) A. 用方框中所给的单词的适当形式填空。

浙江省温州市2018年中考英语真题试题一、单项填空1。

-—-Will you go to _____ school-leavers' party tomorrow?-—- Certainly。

I’m going with my parents.A。

aB. anC. theD。

/【答案】C【解析】句意:—--你明天会去参加离校生的派对吗?---当然。

我要和父母一起去。

这里指的是“那个”离校生的派对,不是随便的某一个派对,是特指,故选定冠词the,选C。

2. —--What was the _______ of the football match last night?——- AC Milan won the game。

A。

valueB. resultC。

choiceD。

decision【答案】B【解析】句意:——-昨天晚上的足球比赛的结果是什么?——— AC米兰赢得了比赛。

从答句可以看出前者是在问比赛的结果,选项A“价值”,选项B“结果”,选项C“选择",选项D“决定”,故选B。

点睛:本题是名词辨析类型的题目,这类题的破题点在于前面句子中的关键词,本题看到“football match”、“won”就直接能知道在讨论的是比赛的结果,就能直接得出答案(result)。

3。

The cheese cake ______ so good that I can’t wait to eat it.A. tastesB。

feelsC. soundsD。

smells【答案】D【解析】句意:这块奶酪蛋糕闻起来很好所以我迫不及待要吃了它.选项A“尝起来",选项B“摸起来",选项C“听起来”,选项D“闻起来”。

“so…that"是“如此…以至于”,这里说蛋糕闻起来很香以至于我迫不及待要吃,说明一开始并没有吃,只是闻了闻。

故选D。

点睛:本题是感官类系动词的考察,但只要对这类词的意义有着清晰的认识也能轻松破解.本题的关键在“so …that",既然是“以至于…"就说明前面的动作貌似对后面的“吃”产生了影响,所以前面没吃,不选taste(尝起来),选D。

Protect the national parks.28. Before getting Yosemite's Junior Ranger Badges, they should complete ____________.A. four stepsB. five stepsC. six stepsD. seven stepsBLima, the capital of Peru, is located in the central coastal part of the country, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. With a population of more than 9 million, Lima is one of the largest cities and the only capital in South America that faces the ocean.Lima has a long history. The lost Inca civilization ,is thought to be a mystery. There are many museums, where you can learn: how the ancient American Indians founded the Inca Empire and built Machu Picchu, a famous ancient city in the Andes Mountains; what happened in 1532 and why over 90% of Peruvians speak Spanish. Visiting the historic center, a World Heritage Site* you may find you are communicating with both the past and the present.Lima is also a place where you can find the lifestyles and fashions, created by its people and culture. You will see Peruvian clothes, dances, and taste their delicious foods and drinks. You can see buildings in different styles, enjoy the fantastic sunset over the ancient ruins, climb the mountains, fly over the ocean, or sit in the restaurants and bars to experience Peruvians’ relaxing life.You may have heard "It never rains in Lima. " In fact, the special geographic feature makes itnot as dry as it is said to be and it is warm all year round. Though it seldom rains in summer, it sometimes drizzles on early winter mornings. The drizzle and the wet air "water” the ground, which makes the crops and the plants grow. Moreover, modern technology helps to bring water from the snow and ice on the top of the Andes (over 6. 000m high) for the city to use. People there never waste water.Lima is such an amazing city that it is worth a visit.29. According to the passage, where is Lima on the map?A B C D30. Most people in Lima speak______________.A. IndianB. SpanishC. EnglishD. Inca language31. The underlined word "drizzle" probably means _______________.A. warm airB. sea waterC. snow and iceD. very light rain32. Lima is a city ________________________.A. which is rich in water resourcesB. where people can learn Inca cultureC. which is the largest in South AmericaD. where the houses are in the same styleCMost viruses can be found and killed by our immune system as soon as they enter our bodies. However, some viruses, for example, thecoronavirus, are sneaky. They are difficult to recognize and find. Theseviruses can cause deadly diseases, like COVID-19. Human-to-human transmission can easily occur, and pandemic* will therefore break out. Vaccination is by now a simple, safe and effective way to protect us from the diseases.__▲Vaccines are something that "looks" exactly the same as the viruses, mainly made from the viruses that are weakened or killed. They will not make us really ill. They only stimulate and activate * our immune system to work, telling it something harmful is coming in. The immunesystem will know what the "viruses" look like, and send B cells(lymphocytes) or antibodies to find and kill them. Meanwhile» B cells will remember them for the next kill. A vaccine may also give us passive immunity by providing B cells taken from an animal or a human to play the same role.Scientists have developed more than 180 vaccines to fight against COVID49. The technical approaches * of these vaccines can be a little different, but their aims are the same.Take the inactivated vaccine as an example. In an inactivated vaccine, the coronaviruses are already killed or made into the ones unable to produce more new viruses. When the immune system "sees" them, it will try to kill them. The question is: without eno ugh these viruses• how can B cells remember them? That's why we need to take the vaccine more than one time. Though this vaccine is safe, it might not be as effective as it is expected to be.The live-attenuated vaccine is different. In this vaccine, the viruses are weakened, but they are alive. They can produce enough new viruses to train the immune system to kill and remember them, so people only need to take the vaccine once. The live-attenuated vaccine is considered the most effective, but there is a worry: what might happen once these viruses wake up?Therefore, although vaccination is by now one of the best ways to protect us from COVID-19, it can be better.33. The coronavirus can ___________________.A. not be killedB. not be foundC. cause deathsD. stop pandemic34. Which of the following can be the best topic sentence of Paragraph 2?A.

I was really disappointed* until one day, in London» when I saw performance by Cirque du Soleil. "These guys took some run-down * entertainment, and put it to the highest possible level of performance art. M Inspiration lighted me up, “Why can't we do the same with the newspapers. We started to redesign the newspapers, one by one.We used our imagination. We treated the whole newspaper as one piece, one composition —like music.Music has a rhythm, has ups and downs. Design is responsible for this experience. Flipping * through pages was readers* experience» and I was responsible for this experience.The front page became my personal channel * to talk to the readers. My approach was simple and direct. I wanted to show my understanding of art, and of reality. I wanted to make posters, not newspapers. Not even magazines: posters.We had determination, and we kept on trying. We experimented with type, with illustration* and with photos. We kept asking: Why do we do it? What's our goal?Design was not only about the front page. It was a part of the process. To be good was not enough. The process we made was about improving the product completely.We adjusted the content accordingly. We improved everything to what our readers thought it should be and how they liked reading it. We kept improving • a nd we had fun.Soon in Poland , our pages were named "Covers of the Year" three times in a row.
