As entrance into college has become more difficult, colleges have looked more at what skills you have. Taking part in after-school activities is a great way.High School ClubsMost high schools offer a lot of clubs and activities, so it is easy to find something that you are interested in. Colleges look for students who will also be active other than test scores. There are many clubs in school, such as the drama（戏剧）club and a book club. You may even be able to find a club related to a future job, such as Future Teachers of America.High School SportsIf you want to go to college and want to take part in sports at a college level, then this fact just might give you a chance. It is a good idea to focus on one single sport. If you want to study in a college on sports and need the college scholarships（奖学金）, it would be better if you decide which sport to do. In this way, you will have enough time to build your skills. High School Publications（出版物）Another smart way to be active in high school and show colleges that you are interested in activities more than academics（学术）is to be a part of your school newspaper or magazine. There may be an actual class you can join or you may join a club. Being in high school publications can be very helpful if you want to major in language（主修一门语言）or education in college.（1）Now in the US, colleges have focused more on the students' ________ during the selection process.A good gradesB family backgroundC skills（2）After-school activities include all of the following except ________.A joining a clubB doing a part-time jobC working on school's newspaper（3）Joining a club may help students ________.A learn a language betterB get higher scores in school subjectsC know more about their future jobs（4）Being ________ is important if you want to major in education in college.A an editor of school newspaperB a basketball player in school teamC a waiter in the school canteen（5）This passage is probably written for ________ to read.A teachersB studentsC parents4.Children across the world are taking pictures of their school meals. They are sending these pictures over the Internet to a young girl in Scotland. Then she shares the pictures and stories with people around the world.The girl's name is Martha. She likes to write. So Martha decided to start her own blog（博客）. Every day, Martha writes on the Internet about the meals she eats at school. She also takes pictures of the food. Martha is very honest about the food. She does not just describe the food. She judges（评价）the taste of the food. She also judges how healthy the food is.Sometimes she likes the food, and sometimes she does not. Now, other people send pictures to Martha. Students around the world share their pictures of their school food!Martha also started her blog for another important reason. She began to raise money for the organization Mary's Meals. Mary's Meals works in the East African country of Malawi. It provides food for children in schools. Martha encourages her readers to send money to Mary's Meals to help build a kitchen.Martha hoped to raise about 10,000 dollars. But the total（总共）reached 100,000 dollars and still keeps on growing!Martha's blog has also helped to improve meals at her school. Martha and her school friends found their meals improved since she started writing her blog.No one knows what will happen to Martha's blog in the future.

Many people seldom find time to just sit back and read a book – not to mention get to know the people behind the literary works.This may change, though. The documentary series Everyday Life of Literature debuted (首映) on Youku on April 16 and offers viewers a glimpse into the lives of writers.Each of the five episodes (集) focuses on a specific writer and includes commentary (评论) from other guests, including a literary critic and an artist. Director Wang Shengzhi is seen observing their conversations over two or three days.“Each author has a different personality,” Wang said. “But they have one thing in common – they all instinctively (本能地) distance themselves from the camera because they don’t want to ‘act’.”One episode is on Ma Yuan, 67, a novelist who rose to fame (成名) in the 1980s for his creative narrative (叙事的) skills. Ma left Shanghai in 2008 after being diagnosed with cancer and has lived in a small village of the Hani ethnic group in Yunnan province since.“Today’s people really show themselves on social media. They have gone far from the nature of life,” Ma says in the episode. “I’m not a hermit (隐士) ... I’m only living in a way that is like the essence (本质) of literature, unadorned (简朴的) but poetic.”A similar situation is noticed in the episode on Alai, 61, an author of Tibetan ethnicity who’s based in Chengdu, Sichuan province, and is best known for his novel, Dust Settled Down. He does not use WeChat and Wang had to persuade him to appear in the documentary.When Alai recalls his experience of the devastating (灾难性的) magnitude-8.0 earthquake in Sichuan in 2008, he gets emotional. For Alai, it was a bitter yet inspirational time to consider the matter of life and death on a deeper level.It took him a decade to begin writing his novel on the catastrophe (灾难), Diary in the Clouds (《云中记》), which is narrated from a Tibetan monk’s (僧侣的) perspective to reveal (揭示) not only pain but also awe (敬畏) of nature.“The authors talk about hometowns ... life and death, and many themes concerning all of us,” Meng Yan, producer of the documentary, said. “Audiences will be led to notice some subtle emotions in life, which can be easily neglected ... We canthink of our own pains and explore what is a really interesting life.”1.What is the purpose of the documentary series Everyday Life of Literature?A. To show people the value of literary works.B. To tell people about the lives of writers.C. To share books some famous people have read.D. To introduce less well-known writers to viewers.2. What do we learn from Ma Yuan’s example?A. It’s good to become known at a young age.B. He hopes people can live a simpler life.C. Living in small villages helps people stay healthy.D. He loves writing poems about small things in life.3. What happened to Alai after experiencing the earthquake in 2008?A. He wrote about it in Dust Settled Down.B. He was away from his hometown for 10 years.C. He gained a new way to look at life and death.D. He spent a decade recovering from his suffering.4. What does the underlined word “subtle” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. unnoticeableC. positiveB. strongD. similar阅读理解BAn old lady in a plane had a blanket（毯子）over her head and she did not want to take it off . The air hostess spoke to her, but the old lady said, “I have never been in a plane before , and I am frightened. I am going to keep this blanket over my head until we are back on the ground again !”Then the captain came. He said, “Madam, I am the captain of this plane.

The 9, 500-square-metre Augustenborg Botanical Garden may look just like any other well-organized park but there’s a difference. It lies on the roofs(屋顶) of industrialand office buildings in the city of Malmo in Sweden.Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a modem city have endless black surfaces with no life or water. Perhaps that’s why a gardenon a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more and more people.Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The hightemperatures on common roofs inthe summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What ismore, they play a part in makingthe cities hotter than the countryside around them, causing the“urban heat-island effect”. On a green roof, however, with its plants and water, temperatureschangeonly a little, as they do in a park. This can greatly cut the costs of heating and cooling in the buildingbelow.Also, a green roof takes in rain water, and protects the city drainage(small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this, the city may become part of nature, rather than something completely separate from it.While the cost of building such a roof can still be higher, it can be cheaper in the long term as aresult of energy savings. And wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden highabove the city’s noise and traffic, whether you're at school or in an office or just at home in aten-floor block.10. With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Garden, the writer wants to explain ____.A. how wildlife is protectedB. what a green roof is likeC. how to organize a good parkD. what to do with a spare roof11. The underlined word “moderate” in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to “____”.A. raiseB. checkC. recordD. control12. Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?A. A green roof is alive.B. A green roof stops pollution.C. A common roof is noisy.D. A common roof increases the cost.13. The purpose of the passage is to ____.A. discover the problems with green roofsB. introduce the change of green roofsC. show the amazing beauty of green roofsD. describe the advantages of green roots。

Their son, Ryan, 17, has been watering in the garden since he was 8. He owned his own tools with the help of his parents. Now he has saved $7,800. Besides, he bought a bike and a wonderful sound system. And he is going to buy a car next year.Money skills are an important part of becoming a successful adult. David Brady manages a company toward children and young adults. “They shouldn’t be always thinking of spending money.” Brady warns. Instead, they should understand basic rules for making money, saving money, and managing money.That knowledge is greatly needed. Over the past ten years, most Americans aged 18 to 24 borrowed nearly $3,000 on credit card(信用卡). Among high school seniors, four out of five have never taken a class about money.Giselle Lopez, 17, of New York City, learned the hard way. She owed(欠) $2,000 on her first credit card. Her parents refused to pay, so Giselle got a job. Then she paid the money off slowly by herself. “Now every time I use money, I know that it comes from my own pocket,” Giselle says. “That gives me a sense of responsibility for my actions.” Different kids will have different styles when it comes to money. Teaching them how to use money doesn’t have to mean setting strict rules. When children like Ryan and Giselle have their own money to consider, they can learn to set those rules themselves.6．What is the goal of most parents about money?A．To set kids’pocket money.B．To get money to spend.C．To teach kids how to deal with money wisely.7．What is the best way to teach about money in The Tidier family?A．To buy expensive things.B．To give kids some money.C．To let kids make some money.8．What did Ryan buy with his own money?A．A car.B．A bike.C．Watering tools 9．How much money did Giselle owe on her first credit card?A．$2,000.B．$3,000C．$7,800.10．How did Giselle pay the money of she owed?A．By credit card.B．By her parents.C．By herself.On August 30, 2021, the Chinese government announced that kids would not be allowed to play online games Mondays to Thursdays. On weekends and holidays, kids would be limited(限制) to an hour a day of online gaming. “Recently, many parents have reported that playing games crazily among some youths and children is seriously harming their normal study, life and health.” the Chinese government said online. This news got us thinking. Should the government be responsible for limiting how much time kids spend online? Here are some students’opinions.Esme McNeely, 11The government should not set screen-time limits. That decision should be up to parents. Some children need to use screens for homework. And during the COVID-19, one of the only ways to talk to friends was online. Government limits would not be fair to people who are careful with their screen time.Lucas Barone, 11The government should not limit screen time. A 2021 study from the University of Colorado Boulder says screen time might be less harmful to kids than people think. Some parents worry that children online too much won’t make friends. But the study reports that screen time can actually improve kids’friendships. In fact, screen time can be educational. I use websites to read and to learn math.Xiuhan Zhu, 9I think the government should take action and limit screen time for kids. Too muchscreen time can lead to tiredness and less social time. People who use smartphones are more likely to get into car accidents. Electrical products like computers can also be harmful for kids. If kids aren’t careful with the websites they use, criminals can get important information.Ning Li, 10Most people spend too much time on their phones and TVs. They hurt their eyes and waste their time. And watching a lot of TV or playing games can influence kids’ learning and social skills. If the government limited screen time, people would be encouraged to spend more time with their family. They might join a sports team in their neighborhood. 11．When are kids allowed to play online games for an hour a day?A．On Mondays.B．On Wednesday.C．On weekends. 12．Who is against screen-time limits?A．Esme McNeely.B．Xiuhan Zhu.C．Ning Li.13．What does the study from he University of Colorado Boulder show?A．Screen time might do no harm to kids.B．Screen time can improve kids’ friendships.C．Screen time won’t help kids make friends.14．What are Ning Li’s opinions about screen-time limits?A．Too much screen time can lead to tiredness.B．Criminals can get important information easily.C．People are encouraged to spend more time with their family.15．What is the article mainly about?A．Screen time can be educational.B．Screen time can lead to less social time.C．Whether the government should set screen-time limits.Smart, Social AnimalsRecently, researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people. Dolphins talk to one another with whistles(口哨) and calls. Scientists have known that the animals also use unusual whistles to name each other. They had thought that dolphins only heard each other’s voices. However, the scientists didn’t know that dolphins listen for their names too.To test this idea, the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls. Thescientists then copied each dolphin’s voice. When the changed recordings were played, the dolphins replied strongly to the names of their relatives and group members. They paid no attention to the names of dolphins they did not know.Dolphins live in large groups that grow and change. Each dolphin’s unusual whistle helps it quickly find a friend or a family member, or call for help. Understanding their calls requires learning. It’s a skill that’s seen in very few animals, which include humans, elephants and bats.Elephants, for example, communicate with sound. Their sounds can be heard by other elephants miles away. Dolphins, too, communicate with each other by making sounds like this.Elephants also communicate by moving their head, feet and trunk. In much the same way, dolphins communicate by their movements. They often touch each other to express friendship.Unlike dolphins, elephants also communicate by their great sense of smell. They can recognize other elephants by the smells they have.Why do dolphins and elephants share the gift of communication? Scientists think it may be because they are social and smart animals. Both have strong family relationship. Now, whether they also have nicknames is another question!16．What have researchers found about dolphins recently?A．Dolphins know their own names.B．Dolphins only hear each other’s voices.C．Dolphins talk to one another not much like people.17．Just before the researchers recorded dolphins’name calls, they ________.A．copied dolphins’ voiceB．caught 14 dolphinsC．trained the dolphins to whistle18．When a dolphin gets into trouble, what will it do?A．It will call for help.B．It will turn its head.C．It will touch another dolphin.19．What are the differences between dolphins and elephants in communication? A．Elephants can communicate by smell.B．Elephants can communicate by sound.C．Dolphins can communicate by movement.20．What does the underlined word “recognize" mean in Chinese?A．驱逐B．认出C．触碰二、阅读还原6选5阅读下面的短文，从所给的A~F六个选项中，选出正确的答案填空，使短文通顺，内容完整，其中选项中有一项是多余的。

There are many different opinions. Some people say that the people of ancient Egypt invented it, some say the Romans invented it and some say Lu ban's wife invented it in ancient China. There's even an interesting story about its invention in China.Luban was the most famous craftsman（工匠）in ancient China. One day, Luban and his wife were taking a walk and enjoying the beautiful view. Suddenly it began to rain. Both of them were soaked when they got back home. Lu ban's wife said, "If there is something that can protect people from the rain when they are walking outdoors, it will be wonderful." Then Lu ban said, "That's easy. I will build many pavilions（亭）." His wife replied. "That's a good idea, but it is not convenient. Is it possible to make a movable（可移动的）pavilion, which could always follow the people?" She thought all day and all night. One day, she saw some kids playing in the rain, and each kid held a big lotus leaf（荷叶）over the head to protect themselves from getting wet. That gave her a great idea. Then, she made the first umbrella in ancient China.Since the umbrella was invented, it has been part of people's life in every corner of the world.

The school is James Madison High School in Houston. It has made it clear that if parents wear pajamas, hair rollers, leggings（睡衣、卷发器、打底裤）and other clothes that are not proper for school, they will not be allowed to go in. Headmaster CarlottaOutley Brown sent parents a letter and told them about the dress code this April. The school hopes to help create a good learning environment. But some parents aren't happy with the new code. Once a mother was asked to leave the school because she wore a short T-shirt dress and a headscarf. She felt she was insulted. In Tennessee, a lawmaker（立法者）also suggested that parents and some other visitors to schools should follow a dress code just like the school staff and students do.In the UK, parents are being encouraged to be careful with what they wear, too. Back in 2016. the head of a primary school in Darlington wrote to moms and dads to warn them not to send their children to school while wearing pajamas.

2020-2021年中考英语阅读理解知识点总结及经典习题(含答案)一、初三英语阅读理解（含答案详细解析）1．根据短文内容选择正确答案。
BWhen you're not at home, many worries may start to crowd your mind. Did I turn the coffee maker off? Did I lock the door? Are the kids doing their homework or watching television? With a smart home, you can quiet all of these worries.A smart home is a home with a communication network. This network connects devices （装置）,such as lights and TV sets, and allows them to be controlled from far away through electrical wiring, mobile phone communication or WiFi over the internet.More and more people may start to consider owning a smart home, because it makes life much more convenient. It can help keep your room at a certain temperature. It can record what happens inside the home and send the video to your phone. When you are on vacation abroad, you can use a smart home controller to switch on or off the electricity when necessary. Some smart homes can receive a visitor, allowing him to come in and offering him a drink. They can even feed the cat and water the plants.Besides, smart homes are easy to fix. Most smart home technology and devices are wireless and can be set up with a minimum of tools, using only the guiding information. When a problem appears, you can deal with it yourself without paying a professional.However, for home-users, the smart home technology is far from perfect. It can be rather expensive to own the technology and the devices. Also, because the smart home system（系统）allow its owner to get home information from anywhere, it leaves the home easy to be attacked by hackers（黑客）,who may secretly use or change the information in the system.Now, many scientists are excited at the future of smart home technology.

Science, on the contrary, is becoming more open. And this “open science” is already making a difference.Soon after the epidemic started in China, a research team from Fudan University in Shanghai successfully sequenced (测定序列) the DNA of the virus. But they didn’t keep the information to themselves. Instead, they placed the sequences on GenBank,an open-access data platform, so researchers around the world could download them for free and start studying the virus.Due to this openness, pharmaceutical (制药的) companies across the globe are now able to work simultaneously (同时地) to develop a vaccine. “There may be room for multiple different vaccines for different purposes and different age groups,” Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security in the US, told Al Jazeera. “The bigger menu we have of vaccines, the more resilient (有适应力的) we’ll be against coronavirus outbreaks in the future.”Major drug companies around the world are also sharing their study results. Remdesivir, a drug originally developed by US company Gilead Sciences to treat Ebola, is found to be promising in fighting against the novel coronavirus. Currently, two trials of the drug are already underway in China, and the results might be available as soon as April, according to The Verge.This openness in science is going to be even more crucial (关键的) in the future. “With climate change, increasing globalization, and population shifts, epidemics will not go away, and might even become more frequent,” Dan Barouch, a Harvard Medical School professor, told Harvard Magazine.He said, “No one group can do everything. It has to be a coordinated (合作的) approach. But I do think that the world has a greater sense of readiness this time to develop knowledge, drugs, and therapeutics (疗法) very rapidly.”Every epidemic is indeed a crisis, but it can also be a learning opportunity. One redeeming (补偿的) factor of the COVID-19 outbreak is that it is helping science adapt for the better.1.What does the article mainly talk about?A. Coordinated efforts to fight the epidemic.B. Something positive we’ve learned from the epidemic.C.The significance of openness and sharing of scientific knowledge.D. What needs to be done to prevent future epidemics.2.What is the positive effect of the research team from Fudan University placing thegenetic sequence of the virus onto GenBank?A.They alerted the world to the danger of the virus.B. They helped remove people’s fear of the virus.C.They showed the world how to produce a vaccine.D.They invited collective efforts worldwide to develop a vaccine.3.What is the author’s purpose of mentioning remdesivir in the text?A.To introduce a possible cure for the epidemic.B. To compare the treatment of Ebola and the novel coronavirus.C.To prove that many drug companies readily share their discoveries.D.To show that the novel coronavirus will soon be contained.4.Which of the following would Dan Barouch probably disagree with?A.Epidemics will be less frequent thanks to scientific development.B. The world is becoming better prepared to deal with epidemics.C.No single group can fight against the epidemics independently.D.The increase in globalization may worsen future epidemics.阅读理解BWhen my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules isthat young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words.By Jack5.Jack brought the couple their food very fast because _______.A. the manager asked him to do soB. he respected the elderlyC. the couple wanted him to do soD. he wanted more pay6. When Jack called the couple “elderly”, they became _______.A. nervousB. satisfiedC. unhappyD. excited7. In Jack’s hometown, _______.A. people dislike being called “old”B. people are proud of being oldC. many people reach the age of seventy or eightyD. the elderly are the first to get food in restaurants8. After this experience, Jack _______.A. lost his job in the restaurantB. made friends with the coupleC. no longer respected the elderlyD. changed his way with older people9. Which of the following is TRUE?A. The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got.B. Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.C. The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.D. From this experience, Jack learned more about American culture.阅读理解CMark Zuckerberg, who starts the social network Facebook, often wears jeans and a T-shirt to work, including to important business meetings. Not everyone agrees with him. Some people say he doesn't look serious this way.Harvard Business School researcher, Franccsca Gino, has a different idea. While most people seem to think that dressing differently from those around you generally has a bad influence, she believes it can actually have a positive(积极的) effect. And she’s done experiments to support her idea. When her researchers, wearing sportswear, visited the expensive shops an Italy, they were usually viewed as wealthier and more important people than those who were well-dressed in designer clothes.Do people always view less formal(正式的) clothing more positively? Researchers in France took their research out into the street, to the general public. The video they made shows an actor dressed in a well-cut suit and shiny shoes. While walking along the road, he begins to cough badly, stops to catch his breath and falls down. Before he even calls for help, people rush to help him. In another video, the actor appears at the same crowded place and repeats the actions in exactly the same way. But this time, no one comes to help. What’s the difference? He’s wearing untidy clothes and looks like a homeless person. In a situation like this, the clothes you’re wearing could mean the difference between life and death.It seems that our clothing doesn’t only change the way others view us, but also the way we see ourselves. In an experiment testing students’ ability to pay attention to details(细节), the group wearing white lab coats did the best. Why? Researchers toldthem that they were wearing the doctors coats. The experiment didn’t show whether such influences would last long. More experiments are needed in the future before we decide to make the doctors’ coats a must of fashion.10. Mark Zuckerberg is not considered serious by some people because ____.A.he does not listen to others’ adviceB. he sets up a network of video gamesC. he wears jeans and a T-shirt to workD. he often plays jokes at business meetings11. Which of the following is Gino’s opinion according to Paragraph 2?A. It is necessary to buy expensive clothes.B. Wearing less formal clothes is in fact good.C. I t is bad to dress differently from people around you.D. Wearing sports clothes makes you look less important.12. In Paragraph 3, the writer proves(证明) his ( her ) opinion mainly ____.A. by giving reasonsB. by using picturesC. by comparing factsD. by listing numbers13. What can we learn from the passage?A. What we wear makes a difference.B. Formal clothing makes a wise man.C. Our value depends on what we wear.D. Our clothing influences our characters.。

AChina’s unbelievable high-speed rail networkAt the beginning of the 21st century China had no high-speedrailways. Slow, crowded and often uncomfortable trains ran across thisvast country, with low average speeds making journeys such as Shanghai-Beijing a test of travel.Today, it’s a completely different picture. With 37,900 kilometers of lines, linking all of its major big cities. China has the world’s largest work of high-speed railways. Half of that total has been completed in the last five years alone, with a further 3,700 kilometers due to open in the coming months of 2021. The network is expected to double in length again, to 70,000 kilometers, by 2035.21. How were the trains in China at the beginning of the 21st century?A. Fast.B. Comfortable.C. Crowded22. How many kilometers of lines are due to open m the coming months of 2021?A. 3,700.B. 37,900.C. 70,000.B23. 41.0% of kids aged _______ use the Internet.A. 5—9B. 10—13C. 14—1724.

Send or receive instant messages.C材料选自：https:///p-99457732078.htmlCan a green machine help the worl d’s p oorest kids learn better? Nicholas Negroponte thinks so. He and his team of scientists have invented a new type of computer. Asa result, many children who live in poverty (贫穷) will have their ownlaptop computers!Negroponte works at a university. He started a group called OneLaptop Per Child(OLPC). The people at OLPC don’t work for money.They work to help children learn. OLPC makes computers that don’t cost a lot. Then they sell the machines to governments of countries that have many people live in poverty. The governments then give the computes to kids for free.The XO Laptop computers are made for school-aged children in developing nations. Many of these children live in faraway areas and go to schools with classrooms. In order to work, the laptops have to be lasting and student-friendly.The machines have many fun characters like a built-in video camera, voice recording, and games. The WiFi lets students share information on the Web and read e-books. They also can make music and chat with friends.Another great character is that it can last for a long time. It can be hand charged and also can be recharged by connecting to a solar panel. Because of these characters the XO laptops make learning fun while helping the environment.The computers have a colorful name—“the green machine”. Negroponte thinks they could make a difference in the lives of millions of kids. He says, “Every problem you can think of—poverty, peace, the environment—is solved with education.”OLPC plans to give out over ten million computers in the next few years. Kids in Thailand, Nigeria, Brazil, and Argentina will get most of them. China and Egypt also want to take part in theprogram. After that, Negroponte hopes to sell computers to other countries with high poverty.26. Negroponte thinks his laptop computers will help the world’s poorest kids to _______.A. work at homeB. go to school on timeC. learn better27. What can we know about the people at OLPC according to Paragraph 2?A. They work for money.B. They give computers to kids for free.C. They sell computers to governments with many people living in poverty.28. Why do XO laptops make learning fun while helping the environment?A. Because they are lasting and student-friendly.B. Because they are made for school-aged children.C. Because they have a colorful name.29. What does the underlined word “charged” mean in Chinese?A. 携带B. 充电C. 使用30. Who will get most of the computers in the next few years?A. Kids in Thailand.B. Kids in China.C. Kids in Egypt.DDogs might have the latest tools in the fight against cancer (癌症);their noses! Researchers at California’s Pine Street Foundation(PSF)say they have trained five dogs to smell cancer on a prison’s breath. Thiscould be exciting news.A dog’s sense of smell may be 10,000 to 100,000 times strongerthan ours. But can dogs really smell illness? PSF researcher Michael McCulloch says yes. “Wewere very surprised by how exact they were,”he said.“They were telling who had cancer, and they were alsosaying who didn’t.”McCulloch and his team asked four healthy peopleand one with cancer to blow into plastic tubes (塑料管).Special materials in the tubes kept the things of eachbreath. The tubes were then placed one yard apart.Finally the dogs were allowed to smell the tubes. Eachdog had been trained for three weeks to sit when it smelled cancer. Ninety-nine percent of the time, the dug sat next to the tubes blown into by patients with lung cancer. The dogs were right 88 percent of the time about breast cancer.No lab test for cancer has given more correct results than this test. The results are so amazing that many experts question the dogs’smelling power. They wonder if there were other reasons why the dogs did so well. For example, they thought the way the dog trainers behaved could have influenced how the dogs acted. However, most experts agree that this study is important. The information could help scientists create a simple breath test for cancer in the future. Once again humans may be getting a helping paw or nose—from their best animal friends.31. What’s the latest tool a dog might have in the fight against cancer?A. Tooth.B. Nose.C. Ear.32. What happened first in the Pine Street Foundation test?A. The dogs were trained.B. The tubes were placed one yard apart.C. The dogs smelled the tubes.33. What was a dog supposed to do when it smelled cancer?A. Smell again.B. Turn around.C. Sit down.34. Look at the chart. How many times did the dogs keep standing when they smelled the breath from healthy persons?A. Less than 10 times.B. Almost 600 times.C. About 700 times.35. Why do many experts question the dog’s smelling power?A. Because no lab test for cancer has given more correct results.B. Because the dog trainers influenced how the dogs acted.C. Because they don’t think this study is important.EWhat do you do with your rubbish? Thro w it out? You don’t know what you’re missing! Look closely at the two figures on your left. They were madefrom things most people throw away. The figures were made from usedbottle caps. Those two bottle-cap figures were exhibited (展示) in a museum.Folk art is art made by common people who have not been trained asartists. Their work is often based on traditions in their culture. Fine art, on the other hand, is usually made by people who have had training in art. Works of fine art are valued for their artistic beauty. They are supposed to be looked at but not used. Works of folk art, however, are often made for everyday use.There were more than 800 pieces of folk art from nearly 50 countries in the exhibition. All of the pieces were made from used metal, wood, cloth, and plastic. The artists come from many different cultures. Still, they all share one thing. They take objects that are normally thrown away and change them into objects that are beautiful, useful, and fun. The artists may not think of what they do as recycling, but that’s exactly what it is. Fine artists might work with expensive materials. They might use expensive tools to shape these materials into works of art. On the other hand, in poor countries rubbish might be the only material folk artists and toy makers can afford. The exhibition shows that a rich imagination is very important when there are only poor materials. Recycled art began long before people began to think about recycling. Some of the objects in the exhibition date from the 1930s.Even if you don’t create art out of rubbish, it’s good to save our natural resources. Remember the three Rules: reduce, reuse, recycle. If you reduce waste, true things instead of throwing them out, and recycle materials such as paper, plastic, and glass, you will protect the environment. 36. Which idea belongs in the empty box?Conclusion (结论) DetailsArt based on cultural traditionsArt made for everyday useArt made with used materialsA. Folk art is made by people who are not trained artistsB. The artists come from many different culturesC. Recycled art began long before people started recycling37. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. There was more than 800 pieces of fine art.B. Folk artists can’t shape expensive materials into works of artC. Poor materials also can be made into works of art38. What is the same thing of the pieces in the exhibition share?A. They are all woks of fine art.B. They are all made from used materials.C. They are all made by the trained artists.39. What can we do to protect our environment?A. Throw away used materials.B. Only use expensive materials.C. Recycle materials.40. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Used Bottle CapsB. The Art of RecyclingC.
