常州市中考英语英语任务型阅读理解试题(附答案)(1)一、英语任务型阅读1.根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
The population of the world continues to increase, but in some areas the population is falling. This is true in Europe and especially in Eastern Europe. In Russia, the population is going down by about 100 people EVERY HOUR! Russia's population could fall by ONE THIRD by the year 2050! And in Poland (波兰) the population is also going down because people are leaving to work in other countries.One of the main reasons is a change of lifestyle. All over Europe people, especially educated women, have a different attitude(态度) to children than their parents. "I have one child and she is enough for me," said Galina Tereschkova, a doctor from Moscow. "My husband and I both work full—time. We can't imagine having more than one child." Many women decide to have children later in life or not to have children at all. "I don't want to have any children until I have worked for at least 10 years," said 19-year-old student Hana Markova from Prague. Her opinion is typical of 18~24 year old women everywhere in Europe.In Poland, the population is going down for a different reason. A lot of people, usually aged between 20 and 30, are leaving the country to work abroad. Poland joined the European Union in 2005 and since then more than half a million people have moved to Britain, Germany, Spain and Italy. Even so, the population of those four countries and many other countries in West Europe is also going down.Many governments are now encouraging people to have larger families. In France, women now receive nearly $1,000 a month for a year if they have a third child. Austrian women receive $700 a month for three years when they have their first child.(1)Where in the world is the population getting smaller?(2)How many children does Galina Tereschkova want to have?(3)What does Hana Markova want to do before she has children?(4)Why is the population in Poland going down?(5)How does the French government encourage people to have larger families now?【答案】(1)In Europe and especially in Eastern Europe.(2)One.(3)She wants to work for at least 10 years.(4)Because a lot of people, usually aged between 20 and 30, are leaving Poland to work abroad./ The change of lifestyle.(5)By giving women nearly $1000 a month for a year if they have a third child.2.阅读下文并回答问题。

常州市中考英语英语任务型阅读理解试题(附答案)一、英语任务型阅读1.根据短文内容,回答下列各题。
Do you obey the rules in your school? How do you like your school rules? A lot of school rules are similar around the world, but some are different. Every school has their own rules.There are some rules in Japanese schools. The students are not allowed to dye(染) their hair and should keep the hair Japanese black colour. They are not allowed to wear earrings, either. Almost all schools required students to wear uniforms in the past but now half of the schools require uniforms. The students feel happy to wear all kinds of clothes. The students mustn't be late for school. If they are late, they can't get into the school gate because the school gate is closed. In Japan, students are not allowed to have part-time jobs because they may not concentrate on their study.American schools have their own rules. For example, in Morton High School, students are not allowed to choose their own clothes. They must get to school and leave school on time. They must wear sports shoes in gym class. They should keep quiet in the school bus. In America, the students can have part- time jobs in their free time.(1)Why are the students not allowed to have part time jobs in Japan? (不超过8个词) (2)What must the students in Morton High School wear in gym class? (不超过5个词) (3)There must be some rules in your school. Give one example, please. (请自拟—句话作答) 【答案】(1)Because they may not concentrate on their study.(2)They must wear sports shoes.(3)You must be quiet if you enter the school building. (言之有理即可)【解析】【分析】大意:世界上很多学校校规相似,但一些学校的校规却不相同,本文着重介绍日本学校一些校规和美国学校的一些校规的不同。

Here are a few examples, in order of time it takes people to learn them.Latin languages (about 600 hours)The popular Latin languages —Italian, French, Spanish and Portuguese —require about 600 hours to learn. Of these, Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn. They are followed by Portuguese and finally French.Latin languages share many words with English. However, those shared words look or sound similar, but have different meanings over time.Greek (1,100 hours)Modern Greek is maybe the easiest language to learn that uses a different alphabet( 字母表). It is also a language that has contributed many words to English. Indeed, the president of Greece once gave two speeches at an international meeting that included just Greek loan words(外来词) as well as the unavoidable basic English.Japanese (2, 200 hours)Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin (like “roads”), small and round (like “apples”), thin and flat (like “sheets of paper”), and hundreds more examples.What Japanese you speak also depends on your gender(性别). There’s a “rough” language for men and a more “ladylike” language for women, but you must understand both.Chinese (2, 200 hours)Each Chinese written word is hardly understandable when spoken between a Mandarin (普通话) speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Guangdong. If you think that's strange, consider our number system: the symbol “2” is widely understood but it’s pronounced “two” in English and “duex” in French.23.For an English speaker, which of the following is the easiest to learn?A. Japanese.B. French.C. Greek.D. Italian.24.What can we learn from the passage?A.The same word in two languages always has the same meaning.B.The English language and the Greek language use the same alphabet.C.Objects are counted differently in Japanese according to their shapes.D A Mandarin speaker and a Cantonese speaker write Chinese differently.25.The purpose of this passage is to tell English speakers .A.how to learn some foreign languagesB.why they must learn a foreign languageC.some information on the difficulty of foreign languagesD.not to choose an Asian language to learn as it is too hardInfluenza, or flu(流感), is a type of virus. It spreads from one person to another quickly. When someone who has the flu coughs or sneezes, little droplets from their lungs ( 肺) spread out into the air. Anyone nearby can get sick. Even a person who touches something with the virus and then touches his or her mouth, eyes, or nose, can become infected(感染).The outbreak of the 1918 influenza infected about 500 million people worldwide. It killed from 20 million to 50 million people. It was first seen in Europe, the United States, and parts of Asia. It then spread quickly around the world. Many people who became sick were young, healthy adults. At the time, no treatments worked in the prevention of the spread of the killer flu. People were ordered to wear masks. Schools, theaters and other public places were closed.When the first wave(波〉in the spring of 1918 hit, it didn't seem serious. People who were infected felt the usual flu symptoms(症状), which are chills, fevers, and feeling tired. Those who got sick generally got better after several days. Not many died. However, a second, highly contagious(传染的)wave of influenza appeared in the fall of that same year. Victims died shortly after they were infected —within hours or days. Their skin turned blue and their lungs were filled with liquid(液体), making it very difficult to breathe.By the summer of 1919, the flu pandemic(大流行病) came to an end. Sick people had either got well or died. Almost 90 years later, in 2008, researchers announced they’d discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly. The flu virus inflamed (使…恶化)the lungs, causing them to fill with liquid.Since 1918, there have been several other influenza pandemics, although none has been quite as deadly.26.What information about the 1918 flu is mentioned in the passage?A.The reason why it was so deadly.B.The reason why it ended.C.The change it caused to medical research.D.The place in which it was last seen.27.All the people that were infected with the 1918 flu .A.had blue skin that led to their deathB.had touched someone with the virusC.died as their lungs were filled with liquidD.had the virus in their bodies that made them sick28.Which of the following statements about the 1918 flu is TRUE according to the passage?A.Wearing a mask was the best way to treat it.B.A younger person had a lower risk of being infected with it.C.People expected the coming of its second wave, but couldn’t stop it.D.It was deadlier than any other influenza pandemic in modern h istory.“What’s wrong, Carina?” Collin asked. “Homesick again?”His sister nodded.“Yeah, me too.” Collin sighed(叹息).Their family had moved to the new place nearly four months ago. The new place was housed inside a huge transparent dome (透明的圆屋顶). It still didn't feel like home.“I miss my friends,” Carina said sadly. “And green grass and swimming, and everything. I even miss the sound of rain on the roof(屋顶).”“Worst of all,” Carina continued, “my birthday is in two days, and I don't think Mom and Dad are planning anything special. They're too busy.”“She's probably right,” thought Collin. Life here was very busy for sc ientists like their parents. He doubted if they had time to plan a party. And how could they anyway? Things such as balloons and birthday candles didn’t exist here. They didn't even have enough materials to make a cake.“Don’t worry.” Collin put an arm aro und Carina's shoulder.Collin walked toward the agricultural center, where his mom worked. He found her taking notes on some tall tube-like plants.“What are those?” he asked.“Bamboo plants,” said Mom. “They’re strong and grow fast. They make good building materials.”“May I have a piece?”“Sure.” Mom handed one to him and made a note on her notebook.The next day, Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails(钉子)into each hole. He poured a handful of pebbles(鹅卵石) inside and covered the open ends.Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home. He hid it behind his back and opened the front door. To his surprise, Mom and Dad were home early from work. Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake.He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon(肉桂皮) sugar. A real treat, on the Moon.Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod. “Happy birthday!”“What is it?” Carina asked, looking at it curiously.“A rain stick,” said Collin. “Whenever you turn it over, the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain.”Carina turned the stick, and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof.“It’s Moon Rain!” she said. “It makes me feel like I’m home.” She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.29.What may be the best title of this passage?A. Bamboo PlantsB. Moon RainC. Homesick Again!D. United Family30.What can we know from the passage?A.This passage is part of a science fiction written for scientific research.B.The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing.C.Their new home was on a dry land on the earth far from their old one.D.Carina didn’t think her parents would plan anything special for her birthday.31.Which of the following can best describe Collin?A Careful and brave. B. Caring and creative.C. Generous and intellectual.D. Romantic and popular.Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside. You may not know exactly where you are, what bird is making that strange sound, or what the hill ahead of you is called, but that’s part of the fun of it. You don’t need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature.Of course, if you do know your birds, trees and local history, a walk can be more attractive. Yet such knowledge comes slowly. It is picked up through experience. A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone. Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen. Would that enrich your dreamy walk or ruin(毁灭) it?Braggarts enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge, for example, about baroque(巴洛克风格的) paintings. In fact, apps in museums try to provide on-screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings.It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon-fed(灌输) amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate(欣赏) it. Our first experience of a work of art should be raw(自然状态的), unguided, and a bit puzzling, like following a path in the woods. Later, you might choose to do some personal research into the work. It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it. Yet it is best done when you’re away from the art itself, so that even when you return, the work still feels fresh.Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong. We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art. Let the paintings flow in; let your intuitions(直觉) fly off. Art is a journey in the wilderness or it is nothing at all.32.What does the writer mainly want to say?A.Art is best with the help of apps.B.Art is best when hidden in mystery.C.Art is nothing compared with nature.D.Art is nothing when details and facts are known.33.The underlined word “braggarts” refers to(指) .A.people who like showing offB.people who like baroque paintingsC.those who are good at appreciating artD.those who are good at painting with phones34.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?A.How to appreciate a work of art.B.How to personal research into a work of art.C.How to keep your feelings about a work of art fresh.D.How to be spoon-fed amazing facts about a work of art.35.what can we infer(推断) from the passage?A.Because of apps, art will be ruined in the future.B.A good piece of art is usually made about nature.C.Research work and intuitions can both help understand art.D.Museums are not supposed to allow the use of mobile phones.四、阅读表达阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

piece?”“Sure.”Mom handed one to him and made a note on her notebook.The next day,Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails(钉子)into each hole.He poured a handful of pebbles(鹅卵石)inside and covered the open ends.Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home.He hid it behind his back and opened the front door.To his surprise,Mom and Dad were home early from work.Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake.He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon(肉桂皮)sugar.A real treat,on the Moon.Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod.“Happy birthday!”“What is it?”Carina asked,looking at it curiously.“A rain stick,”said Collin.“Whenever you turn it over,the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain.”Carina turned the stick,and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof.“It’s Moon Rain!”she said.“It makes me feel like I’m home.”She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.29.What may be the best title of this passage?A.Bamboo PlantsB.Moon RainC.Homesick Again!D.United Family30.What can we know from the passage?A.This passage is part of a science fiction written for scientific research.B.The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing.C.Their new home was on a dry land on the earth far from their old one.D.Carina didn’t think her parents would plan anything special for her birthday.31.Which of the following can best describe Collin?A.Careful and brave.B.Caring and creative.C.Generous and intellectual.D.Romantic and popular.Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside.You may not know exactly where you are,what bird is making that strange sound,or what the hill ahead of you is called,but that’s part of the fun of it.You don’t need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature.Of course,if you do know your birds,trees and local history,a walk can be more attractive.Yet such knowledge comes slowly.It is picked up through experience.A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone.Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen.Would that enrich your dreamy walk or ruin(毁灭)it?Braggarts enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge,for example,about baroque(巴洛克风格的)paintings.In fact,apps in museums try to provide on-screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings.It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon-fed(灌输)amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate(欣赏)it.Our first experience of a work of art should be raw(自然状态的),unguided,and a bit puzzling, like following a path in the ter,you might choose to do some personal research into the work.It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it.Yet it is best done when you’re away from the art itself,so that even when you return,the work still feels fresh.Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong.We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art.Let the paintings flow in;let your intuitions(直觉)fly off.Art is a journey in the wilderness or it is nothing at all.32.What does the writer mainly want to say?A.Art is best with the help of apps.B.Art is best when hidden in

on our hands during lockdown,many of us have entertained the idea of knowing more about the world.Learning a foreign language is a good choice.Here are a few examples,in order of time it takes people to learn them.Latin languages (about 600 hours)The popular Latin languages ﹣Italian,French,Spanish and Portuguese ﹣require about 600 hours to learn.Of these,Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn.They are followed by Portuguese and finally French.Latin languages share many words with English.However,those shared words look or sound similar,but have different meanings over time.Greek (1,100 hours)Modern Greek is maybe the easiest language to learn that uses a different alphabet(字母表).It is also a language that has contributed many words to English.Indeed,the president of Greece once gave two speeches at an international meeting that included just Greek loan words(外来词)as well as the unavoidable basic English.Japanese (2,200 hours)Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin (like "roads"),small and round (like "apples"),thin and flat (like "sheets of paper"),and hundreds more examples.What Japanese you speak also depends on your gender(性别).There's a "rough" language for men and a more "ladylike" language for women,but you must understand both.Chinese (2,200 hours)Each Chinese written word is hardly understandable when spoken between a Mandarin (普通话)speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Guangdong.If you think that's strange,consider our number system:the symbol "2" is widely understood but it's pronounced "two" in English and "duex" in French.(1)For an English speaker,which of the following is the easiest to learn?DA.Japanese.B.French.C.Greek.D.Italian.(2)What can we learn from the passage?CA.The same word in two languages always has the same meaning.B.The English language and the Greek language use the same alphabet.C.Objects are counted differently in Japanese according to their shapes.D.A Mandarin speaker and a Cantonese speaker write Chinese differently.(3)The purpose of this passage is to tell English speakers C.A.how to learn some foreign languagesB.why they must learn a foreign languageC.some information on the difficulty of foreign languages D.not to choose an Asian language to learn as it is too hard解析:本文讲述了学习一门外语是一个不错的选择.以下是几个例子,按照人们学习这些语言的时间顺序排列.参考答案:(1)D 细节理解题.根据"拉丁语"部分:Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn.西班牙语和意大利语是讲英语的人最容易学的.结合选项可知,对于一个说英语的人来说,意大利语最容易学.故选D.(2)C 细节推测题.根据"日语"部分:Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin (like "roads"),small and round (like "apples"),thin and flat (like "sheets of paper"),日文中计算物体的数量取决于它们是长而细(像"路"),小而圆(像"苹果"),薄而平(像"纸").可以推测出,在日语中,物体根据形状的不同而计数.故选C.(3)C 推理判断题.根据首段Learning a foreign language is a good choice.Here are a few examples,in order of time it takes people to learn them.学习一门外语是一个不错的选择.以下是几个例子,按照人们学习这些语言的时间顺序排列.结合全文可以推测出,这篇文章的目的是告诉说英语的人关于外语难度的一些信息.故选C.点拨:先浏览所给的问题以及选择项,然后带着问题在通读原文的基础上快速地找到答案,然后再回过头来检查一遍,确保万无一失13.(6分)Influenza,or flu(流感),is a type of virus.It spreads from one person to another quickly.When someone who has the flu coughs or sneezes,little droplets from their lungs (肺)spread out into the air.Anyone nearby can get sick.Even aperson who touches something with the virus and then touches his or her mouth,eyes,or nose,can become infected(感染).The outbreak of the 1918 influenza infected about 500 million people worldwide.It killed from 20 million to 50 million people.It was first seen in Europe,the United States,and parts of Asia.It then spread quickly around the world.Many people who became sick were young,healthy adults.At the time,no treatments worked in the prevention of the spread of the killer flu.People were ordered to wear masks.Schools,theaters and other public places were closed.When the first wave(波>in the spring of 1918 hit,it didn't seem serious.People who were infected felt the usual flu symptoms(症状),which are chills,fevers,and feeling tired.Those who got sick generally got better after several days.Not many died.However,a second,highly contagious (传染的)wave of influenza appeared in the fall of that same year.Victims died shortly after they were infected ﹣within hours or days.Their skin turned blue and their lungs were filled with liquid(液体),making it very difficult to breathe.By the summer of 1919,the flu pandemic(大流行病)came to an end.Sick people had either got well or died.Almost 90 years later,in 2008,researchers announced they'd discoveredwhy the 1918 flu was so deadly.The flu virus inflamed (使…恶化)the lungs,causing them to fill with liquid.Since 1918,there have been several other influenza pandemics,although none has been quite as deadly.(1)What information about the 1918 flu is mentioned in the passage?AA.The reason why it was so deadly.B.The reason why it ended.C.The change it caused to medical research.D.The place in which it was last seen.(2)All the people that were infected with the 1918 flu D.A.had blue skin that led to their deathB.had touched someone with the virusC.died as their lungs were filled with liquidD.had the virus in their bodies that made them sick(3)Which of the following statements about the 1918 flu is TRUE according to the passage?DA.Wearing a mask was the best way to treat it.B.A younger person had a lower risk of being infccted with it.C.People expected the coming of its second wave,but couldn't stop it.D.It was deadlier than any other influenza pandemic in modern history.解析:本文主要讲了流感的传播方式以及1918年全世界流感爆发的详细情况.参考答案:细节理解题.(1)A.题目问在文中有关1918年流感提到了什么信息,根据第四段Almost 90 years later,in 2008,researchers announced they'd discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly.可知文中提到了1918年流感致命的原因,故选A.(2)D.题目意为感染1918流感的所有人_____,根据第四段By the summer of 1919,the flu pandemic(大流行病)came to an end.Sick people had either got well or died.Almost 90 years later,in 2008,researchers announced they'd discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly.The flu virus inflamed (使…恶化)the lungs,causing them to fill with liquid.可知感染了这种病毒的人使得肺部恶化,因此判断得1918年流感的人都感染了这个流感病毒.故选D.(3)D.题目问根据文章有关1918年流感的陈述哪一项是正确的,根据最后一段Since 1918,there have been several other influenza pandemics,although none has been quite as deadly.可知自从1918年以来也出现过一些其他的流感,但是都没有这次致命,因此判断自从1918年以来,即现代历史中它比其他任何一种流感都要致命,故选D.点拨:通读全文,理解文章大意,阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容,仔细核对,选择符合原文原意的答案,完成后再次阅读并检查.14.(6分)"What's wrong,Carina?" Collin asked."Homesick again?"His sister nodded."Yeah,me too." Collin sighed(叹息).Their family had moved to the new place nearly four months ago.The new place was housed inside a huge transparent dome (透明的圆屋顶).It still didn't feel like home."I miss my friends," Carina said sadly."And green grass and swimming,and everything.I even miss the sound of rain on the roof(屋顶).""Worst of all," Carina continued,"my birthday is in two days,and I don't think Mom and Dad are planning anything special.They're too busy.""She's probably right," thought Collin.Life here was very busy for scientists like their parents.He doubted if they had time to plan a party.And how could they anyway?Things such as balloons and birthday candles didn't exist here.They didn't even have enough materials to make a cake."Don't worry." Collin put an arm around Carina's shoulder.Collin walked toward the agricultural center,where his mom worked.He found her taking notes on some tall tube﹣like plants."What are those?" he asked."Bamboo plants," said Mom."They're strong and grow fast.They make good building materials.""May I have a piece?""Sure." Mom handed one to him and made a note on her notebook.The next day,Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails(钉子)into each hole.He poured a handful of pebbles(鹅卵石)inside and covered the open ends.Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home.He hid it behind his back and opened the front door.To his surprise,Mom and Dad were home early from work.Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake.He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon(肉桂皮)sugar.A real treat,on the Moon.Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod."Happy birthday!""What is it?" Carina asked,looking at it curiously."A rain stick," said Collin."Whenever you turn it over,the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain."Carina turned the stick,and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof."It's Moon Rain!" she said."It makes me feel like I'm home." She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.(1)What may be the best title of this passage?B A.Bamboo PlantsB.Moon RainC.Homesick Again!D.United Family(2)What can we know from the passage?DA.This passage is part of a science fiction written for scientific research.B.The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing.C.Their new home was on a dry land on the earth far from their old one.D.Carina didn't think her parents would plan anything special for her birthday.(3)Which of the following can best describe Collin?BA.Careful and brave.B.Caring and creative.C.Generous and intellectual.D.Romantic and popular.解析:文章主要讲了Carina想家,Collin弄了一场月亮雨缓解她想家的情绪.参考答案:(1)B 主旨大意题.根据"It's Moon Rain!" she said."It makes me feel like I'm home." She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again"是月雨!"她说."这让我有家的感觉."她对科林笑了笑,又把雨棍翻了一遍,结合文章内容,可知文章主要讲了Carina想家,Collin弄了一场月亮雨缓解她想家的情绪,B月亮雨,符合题意,故答案为:B.(2)D 细节理解题.根据"my birthday is in two days,and I don't think Mom and Dad are planning anything special.They're too busy.再过两天就是我的生日了,我想爸爸妈妈并没有什么特别的计划.他们太忙了,可知卡琳娜认为她的父母不会为她的生日安排任何特别的事情,故答案为:D.(3)B 细节归纳题.根据"A rain stick," said Collin."Whenever you turn it over,the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain,结合文章内容,可知Collin因为关心妹妹,为妹妹制作了一场月球雨,可见他很关心妹妹,而且很有创造力,故答案为:B.点拨:阅读理解题通常从细节,文章主旨,推测词组大意几个方面考查学生对文章的理解,做题时注意找到文章出处,做到有理有据.15.(8分)Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside.You may not

greatest artistic types in Chinese culture.It is not only a competitive event of the mind,but also a board game of entertainment.Created in China more than four thousand years ago.Go was introduced to Korea and Japan over 1,000 years ago,and has since become a favorite activity of many people there.Today,Go still serves as a way of cultural exchange among the people inmany Eastern and Western countries,as players in these countries take part in many international games every year.A game of Go has many implications(含义)for real life.It represents a square world of round pieces in black and white.There are 181 black pieces and 180 white ones in total.While the board is fixed,the pieces can be placed in millions upon millions of different ways,just as life in the real world may take many turns.The proper placement of each tiny Go piece is similar to how one might solve a difficult problem in life.Go pays much attention to peaceful competition and coexistence (共存).In a game of Go,the players do not wipe out (消灭)each other's pieces.Instead,they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side some space.However,in chess and Chinese chess,the players try to wipe out as many of the other side's pieces as possible.The one who forces the other side's commander(主帅)into a dead corner then wins the game.Therefore,Go carries deeper cultural and philosophical connotations(哲学内涵).Wu Qingyuan(1914﹣2014),a modern Go talent,believed that the final purpose of the game was to try to achieve peace.Instead of fighting as enemies,the two players work together to play an excellent game.Title:A game of wisdom and peaceMain Parts DetailedInformation Introduction The game ofGo is knownas one ofChinesegreatestartistictypes.It is acompetitionof the(1)mind,anda game

ago,and has since become a favorite activity of many people there."可知围棋起源于4000多年前的中国,从那时起便传遍了全世界.句子是现在完成时,结构为have\hasdone.故答案为spread.(3)role.考查名词.根据第二段句子"Today,Go still serves as a way of cultural

2020常州市中考英语试题和答案
C“What’s wrong, Carina?”Collin asked. “Homesick again?”His sister nodded.“Yeah, me too.”Collin sighed (叹息).Their family had moved to the new place nearly four months ago. The new place was housed inside a huge transparent dome (透明的圆屋顶). It still didn’t feel like home.“I miss my friends,”Carina said sadly. “And green grass and swimming, and everything. I even miss the sound of rain on the roof (屋顶).”“Worst of all,”Carina continued, “my birthday is in two days, and I don’t think Mom and Dad are planning anything special. They’re too busy.”“She’s probably right,”thought Collin. Life here was very busy forscientists like their parents. He doubted if they had time to plan a party. And how could they anyway? Things such as balloons and birthday candlesdidn’t exist here. They didn’t even have enough materials to make a cake.“Don’t worry. ”Collin put an arm around Carina’s shoulder.Collin walked toward the agricultural center, where his mom worked. He found her taking notes on some tall tube-like plants.“What are those?”he asked.“Bamboo plants,”said Mom. “They’re strong and grow fast. They make good building materials.”“May I have a piece?”“Sure. ”Mom handed one to him and made a note on her notebook.The next day, Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails (钉子) into each hole. He poured a handful of pebbles (鹅卵石) inside and covered the open ends.Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home. He hid it behind his back and opened the front door. To his surprise, Mom and Dadwere home early from work. Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake.He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon (肉桂皮) sugar. A real treat, on the Moon.Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod. “Happy birthday!”“What is it?”Carina asked, looking at it curiously.“A rain stick, ”said Collin. “Whenever you turn it over, the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain.”Carina turned the stick, and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof.“It’s Moon Rain!”she said. “It makes me feel like I’m home.”Shesmiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.29. What may be the best title of this passage?A. Bamboo PlantsB. Moon RainC. Homesick Again!D. United Family30. What can we know from the passage?A. This passage is part of a science fiction written for scientific research.B. The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing.C. Their new home was on a dry land on the earth far from their old one.D. Carina didn’t think her parents would plan anything special for herbirthday.31 Which of the following can best describe Collin?A Careful and brave.B. Caring and creative.C Generous and intellectual.D. Romantic and popular.DLooking at art should be like walking in the countryside. You may not know exactly where you are, what bird is making that strange sound, or whatthe hill ahead of you is called, but that’s part of the fun of it. You don’t need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature.Of course, if you do know your birds, trees and local history, a walk can be more attractive. Yet such knowledge comes slowly. It is picked up through experience. A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone. Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen. Would that enrich your dreamy walk or ruin (毁灭) it?Braggarts enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge, for example, about baroque (巴洛克风格的) paintings. In fact, apps in museums try to provide on-screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings.It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon-fed (灌输) amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate (欣赏) it. Our first experience of a work of art should be raw (自然状态的), unguided, and a bit puzzling, like following a path in the woods. Later, you might choose to do some personal research into the work. It can furtherincrease your enjoyment and appreciation for it. Yet it is the best done when you’re awayfrom the art itself, so that even when you return, the work still feels fresh.Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong. We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art. Let the paintings flow in; let your intuitions (直觉) fly off. Art is a journey in the wilderness or it is nothing at all.32. What does the writer mainly want to say?A. Art is best with the help of apps.B. Art is best when hidden in mystery.C. Art is nothing compared with nature.D. Art is nothing when details and facts are known.33. The underlined word “braggarts”refers to (指) __________.A. people who like showing offB. people who like baroque paintingsC. those who are good at appreciating artD. those who are good at painting with phones34. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?A. How to appreciate a work of art.B. How to do personal research into a work of art.C. How to keep your feelings about a work of art fresh.D. How to be spoon-fed amazing facts about a work of art.35. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?A. Because of apps, art will be ruined in the future.B. A good piece of art is usually made about nature.C. Research work and intuitions can both help understand art.D. Museums are not supposed to allow the use of mobile phones.四、阅读表达(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

满分5分)阅读下面短文,在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格词数不限)The Internet has changed our habits, including our habit of sending greeting cards. There are many e-card websites that make it so easy to find the right greeting cards. They have greatly changed the way we send greetings to each other.Our lives have become so busy that we have limited personal time. These e-card websites have allowed everyone to easily share their feelings and emotions(感情) with the people they love. They contain(包括) plenty of greeting cards that can be used immediately. The users can choose any card they like, from festival greetings to birthday wishes. In fact, e-cards are perfect for any event. That’s why more and more people like to send e-cards. If the users are interested in making their own greeting cards on the internet, they can create a card within only a few minutes.Another benefit(好处) of e-card websites is that they have made it possible for you to send top quality cards to your beloved (心爱的) ones and surprise them with cheerful greetings. They allow you to send your greetings on a specific(特定的) date. So you can plan for the occasion(场合)when you want to send the card. For example, you can send your e-card on a certain day and then visit the person with some flowers the next day. This will surely create a good impression(印象)on the person you love.We have never forgotten the importance of saying sorry to our beloved ones. But sometimes we fail to do so because, we are not brave enough to face those we hurt. Some e- cards on these websites allow us to express our feelings in a more thoughtful way.Although some people still would rather buy traditional cards in the shops for the persons they love, especially when they want the cards to last a long time, more and more people are choosing to send greetings on the Internet.Title: Sending E-cards on the Internet(2010)阅读表达(共5小格;每小格1分。
满分5分)阅读下面短文,在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格限填一词)We’ve come a long way from blackboards and chalk. Modern technology (技术) has provided us with lots of ways we can make learning more interesting. Perhaps most importantly of all, it’s also more interactive (互动).Some kinds of tools (工具) have been developed. They make the 21st century learning experience much more interactive and interesting. Attracting the attention of students is always difficult, but these tools have made a big difference in how pupils learn.For example, an interactive whiteboard is different from a traditional chalkboard. It allows the teachers to show images and provide sound as well. If you imagine a large computer screen with colorful images and sound added in, you can see why so many pupils are drawn in by what they see and hear in a modern classroom.Various audio (声音的) tools also help to make sure that everyone can hear what the teacher has to say. In the past, if a teacher said something that a child missed, perhaps the child was too timid (胆小的) or nervous to ask them to repeat it. Now they are less likely to miss out simply because they’re sitting too far away from the teacher to hear them.The 21st century classroom is able to teach pupils more than one thing. For example, imagine a history lesson is given in a modern classroom. How is it different from a classroom setting in the past? The answer is simple. The students will not only learn about history itself, they will also learn how to use the modern equipment (设备) that helps the teacher get their message across.Modern technology can make teaching and learning easier. Student response (应答) system makes everyone able to express their opinions or answers without having to speak up. Since everyone can do it, the teacher can see who needs more help in other ways.It’s clear that this kind of classroom technology is making a great difference in modern classrooms.(2011)阅读表达(共5小题;每小题1分。
满分5分)阅读下面短文,在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格限填一词)The way in which we communicate with others can be greatly improved by building a better vocabulary. In our personal life,we communicate and share experiences with others. However, how well we do it depends on(取决于)our ability to express ourselves through spoken and written language. Luckily,increasing(增加)our word power can make us own the skills we need to communicate better with others and can also help us get better results in our study.When you see a new word,whether through reading or hearing someone say the word,just be ready to take out your dictionary and look it up-learn about the word and anything that relates(与…相关)to it. If you understand the word, you’ll hopefully remember it well.Meanwhile, you’d better write down words to learn. You can go through the dictionary,magazine and newspaper or even take down the unknown words you hear. Try to revi ew them every day-look at the words and speak them out loudly. Copy the words over and over again,along with their meanings,and you will surprisingly remember themn in no time.You can also do word searches,crossword puzzles or other word games. Playing these games,you are more likely to come across new words, and when you are caught in new words, study them. The more words you have in your brain’s word bank,the better you will become at these word games. You will be remembering,learning and having fun,too.Finally, reading is also believed to be an excellent way to learn new words and build up your vocabulary. Read things you are interested in,because in this way,you are less likely to become bored. But dont skip over(忽略) those words you don’t know. Instead, you should remember and use them in your own daily conversations. Use them more, and you’ll surely have a better chance of remembering them.Topic:Increasing Your V ocabulary(34)__________of building up vocabulary ●Improve your ability to express yourselves and communicate better with others.●Be (35)___________to your study.Suggestions on remem bering new words 1.Remember every new word you meet with by(36)__________it.●Learn about the word and anything that relates to it by looking it up in your dictionary.2.Make a (37)__________of new words to learn.●Review the words every day by looking at and speaking them out loudly.●Copy the words and their meanings over and over again.3.Do word games.●Play these games,come across new words and study them with fun.4.Learn words through reading.●Read things you(38)__________.●Do not skip over new words,but remember and use them more.(2012)阅读表达(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
