collar (项圈).Who would be so careless?I went inside and brought out a can of fish.The cat hungrily ate it up and then walked right inside the house.I wanted to get him out,but I hesitated.Our family never owned pets,but I had always wanted one.Just then,the cat meowed and jumped up onto my leg.Well,he seemed to like me!Maybe I didn't have to give him back after all!The cat kept me owing a lot.I knew I had to go to the store and get some cat food.On my way out,I saw a sign on the telephone pole:Black and white,very friendly.If you find him,please call us at 617﹣58463302.We are worried sick."Hmm,"I thought."If you were so worried about your kitten,maybe you should have taken better care of him!"When I walked into the pet store,I saw a group of kids hanging up notices about thissame cat there."I can't believe I lost my cat!"a little boy in a wheelchair cried to his parents."I couldn't get to the open door in time!"I looked at the notices on the wall.It was surely the cat I had back at home.Then the truth of the situation hit me:I had stolen a little boy's cat!Now I realized there was a lot I didn't understand.I tried to explain why I should keep the cat by convincing myself the owners deserved to lose him.Now I saw that it was all a big mistake.I walked to the little boy."I have your cat,"I told him."I'm sorry.I just found him and fed him.He's at my house."The little boy began to cry with laughter.He blew his nose and gave me a great big hug."Thank you so much!I was just about to put a new collar on him when he ran out of the door.I couldn't chase him!Because of my…you know…my legs.""I'll be right back,"I told him.I ran home to get the cat and reunite owner and pet.44.What did the writer think of the cat's owner at

too soon.C.Too often we enjoy cats as good company.D.Everyone should help people in trouble.25.(8分)Need to buy something?Why go to a store?Buy it on the Internet!Need it now?Why wait?Ask for next﹣day delivery!Each day,more and more people try online shopping.In fact,online sales have doubled in the last ten years.But not everyone is excited.Some scientists now say that online shopping is bad for the environment.People are surprised to hear this."They think,‘I don't need to drive,and the business doesn't need to build a store,so there will be less pollution,'"says Nuria Prost,an environmental scientist."But it is not so simple.In fact,online shopping is wasteful.It also adds to air pollution."In truth,the Internet is not always as good a friend to the environment as it seems.For example,most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials.But paper use increased by 33percent between 1986and 1997."Online shopping could have similarly negative effects,"says Nevil Cohen,a professor of environmental science.Part of the problem is what people are buying these days.In the past,people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material,such as books and clothing.But now people also shop online for large,heavy products such as televisions,computers,and furniture.These products need to be packed in large amounts of plastic and paper.This creates a lot of waste.Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution.When customers buy products and ask for next﹣day delivery,companies often have to send them by air.Airplanes use much more fuel than cars and produce more carbon dioxide(CO2).When people buy a lot of different things from different online businesses,this creates even more travel by airplane.Online product returns are also a problem.For example,an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes without extra pay if they are the wrong size.This doubles the packing material and number of airplane trips required to sell one pair of shoes."If people want to protect the environment,they need to think before they shop,"says Prost."People need to ask themselves:Is this exactly what I want?Do I really need it tomorrow,or can I wait?"Online stores can also charge(收费)customers for returns.This may make people shop more carefully."Online shopping is fast and easy,"says Prost,"but we can't forget the negative effects it has on the environment."48.Why does online shopping create a lot of waste?A.Because companies charge more for product returns.B.Because people buy too many things they don't need.C.Because paper use has increased by 33percent from 1986to 1997.D.Because large,heavy products require much packing material.49.What do companies do to meet the needs of the next﹣day delivery?A.Prepare more products.B.Get more workers to pack.C.Send the products by air.D.Open more stores in cities.50.Prost probably agrees that.A.people should drive to stores to buy thingsB.online shopping adds pollution to the environmentC.online shopping saves more than shopping in a storeD.people can buy things online without careful consideration51.What is probably the best title of the passage?A.A Good Deal to Make?B.A Different Lifestyle to Keep?C.A Cleaner Way to Shop?D.A New Business to Start?26.(8分)"You expect your friends to see you in a positive manner,but they also are observers of the personalities that could cause you an early death,"said Joshua Jackson,an assistant professor of psychology in Arts & Sciences.Published in the journal Psychological Science,the study shows that your personality at an early age can predict how long you will live across 75years and that close friends are usually better than you at recognizing these traits."Our study shows that people are able to observe and evaluate(评价)a friend's personality exactly enough to predict early death years down the road,"Jackson said."It suggests that people are able to see important characteristics related to health even when their friends were,for the most part,healthy and many years from death."While other studies have shown that a person's view of his or her own personality can be helpful in evaluating death risks,there has been little research on whether a close friend's personality evaluation might also predict the chances of a long life.To explore this question,Jackson and colleagues analyzed data(数据)from a longitudinal study that in the 1930s began following a group of young people in their mid﹣20s.The study included wide﹣ranging data on participant(参与者)personalities,both self﹣reported and as reported by close friends.Using information from follow﹣up studies and searches of death certificates(证书),Jackson and colleagues were able to record dates of death for all but a few study participants.Peer(同龄人)evaluations of personality were stronger predictors of death risks than were self﹣evaluations of personality."There are two possible reasons for the advantage of peer evaluations over self﹣evaluations,"Jackson said."First,friends may see something that you miss;they may have some insight that you do not.Second,because people have several friends,we are able to average the characteristics of any one friend to get a more trustworthy evaluation of personality.With self﹣reports,people may miss certain sides of themselves and we are not able to counteract(抵抗)that because there is only one you,only one self﹣report."The study also shows some gender differences in self﹣evaluation:Men's self﹣evaluations of personality were somewhat useful in predicting their lifespans(寿命),whereas the self﹣reports of women had little predictive value."This is one of the longest studies in psychology,"Jackson said."It shows how important personality is in influencing important life outcomes like health,and that information from friends can play a critical role in understanding a person's health issues.52.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A.People's health is related to their friends.B.Friends can predict lifespans better than us.C.An early personality evaluation helps us live longer.D.The study shows most people can live across 75years.53.The underlined word"insight"in Paragraph 6probably means"".A.adviceB.influenceC.imaginationD.understanding54.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.People with more close friends have better personalities.B.Self﹣evaluations have advantages over peer evaluations.C.Men predict their lifespans more exactly than women.D.The findings are based on participants'disease data.55.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Friends'personality evaluations can help recognize health risks.B.Best friends play an important role in treating certain diseases.C.Psychology studies may influence personality development.D.Personality has little important effect on people's health.五、阅读短文,根据短文内容,从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.每个选项只能用一次.27.(10分)The Same But

the United States,the numberhas grown by 25% in recent years.People in other countries are also doing aquatic exercise more frequently.Aquatic exercise has many benefits.First of all,it feels easier than exercising on land.Why?You weigh about 90% less in the pool.It is also better for your knees than running or walking.Aquatic exercise feels easy,but you still burn calories(卡).Water is 1,000times thicker and heavier than air.In the same amount of time,you can burn more calories in the pool than in the gym.That's because it takes more energy to move in the water.But what if you are scared of the water?No problem!There is nothing to worry about.Aquatic exercise is safe and easy to learn.It doesn't require any special skills.For most kinds of aquatic exercise,you don't even need to know how to swim.In fact,most people say they feel more relaxed in the water.They stop thinking about the things that make them anxious.The cool and quiet environment makes them exercise more.Aquatic exercise is suitable for everyone.You can do it at any age.It can even help people who have been hurt in accidents.With aquatic exercise,they can move in ways they can't on land.For example,some people who can't walk can walk and even run in the water.So are you looking for a fun new way to improve your health?Why not try?Join the millions of people who are burning calories while keeping cool in the pool.61.Where do people do aquatic exercise?62.Why do people burn more calories while doing aquatic exercise?63.Is it difficult to learn aquatic exercise?64.Who is aquatic exercise suitable for?65.What is the passage mainly about?.七、书面表达29.(15分)根据中文和英文提示,写一段意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于50词的回信.信的开头和结尾已给出,其词数不计入所要完成的回信内.请不要写出你的校名和姓名.假如你叫李华,你的美国朋友Emily通过邮件想了解使你发生改变的人.请你谈谈她/他是谁,发生了什么令你改变的事,以及你的感悟.2015年北京市海淀区中考英语一模试卷参考答案与试题解析一、听力理解1.(1分)【解答】略2.(1分)【解答】略3.(1分)【解答】略4.(1分)【解答】略5.(1分)【解答】略6.(2分)请听一段对话,完成第6至第7小题.6.What's

very much.()A.him B.her C.us D.you【解答】答案:B 根据My sister Jane可知,下文喜爱的是上文提到的妹妹,放于动词之后应使用宾格,表示"她".又知him是宾格,意为他;her是宾格,应为她;us是宾格,意为我们;you是宾格,意为你(们).所以此处应用her,故选B.13.(1分)Mother's Day is ______ May 10th this

prepareC.are preparingD.prepared【解答】答案:C根据现在进行时常见的特征词:Look"看",可知接下来描述的动作是正在进行当中的,故用现在进行时,现在进行时的结构为is/am/are+动词的现在分词,再根据该句中的主语是girls为第三人称复数,故填are preparing,故选C17.(1分)﹣______ do you play the guitar?﹣Three times a week.()A.How much B.How old C.How long D.How often【解答】答案:D 根据答语Three times a week可知,此句是频率短语,上文应该是就频率提问.又知how much多少(对不可名词的数量进行提问);how old 多少岁(对年龄提问);how long多长时间(对段时间进行提问);how

of lessons ______ on the Internet these days.()A.give B.are givenC.gave D.were given【解答】答案:B根据句中时间状语为these days"如今,现在"可判断句子为一般现在时,主语Lots of lessons 是谓语动词give 的承受者二者是被动关系,故用被动语态,所以空处为一般现在时的被动语态,一般现在时的被动语态的结构为is/am/are+及物动词的过去分词.故选B.21.(1分)﹣Could you tell me ______ the Great Wall?﹣The day after tomorrow.()A.when will we visit B.when did we visitC.when we will visit D.when we visited【解答】答案:C.根据Could you tell me ______ the Great Wall?结合选项可知你能告诉我我们什么时候将参观长城吗?﹣The day after tomorrow后天.可知句子是一个宾语从句,结合回答语The day after tomorrow"后天."是一般将来时的标志词,所以从句应用一般将来时,排除BD;从句里的疑问词是表示时间的when,宾语从句的语序应用陈述句语序,排除A.故选C.三、完形填空.22.(15分)The LakeThe day when Robert was born was the happiest day of my life.Unfortunately my wife decided she

More and more I expected visits from other kids in the hospital, who were quickly becoming my friends.One girl came to visit me 50 . Every time she came, she brought flowers. She was recovering from cancer and felt she should come back and 51 the other patients.She still had no hair, and she was swollen from medications she had been taking. I would not have given this girl a second 52 before. I now loved every inch of her and looked forward to her 53 .Finally, I was improving and soon I went home. My leg was still swollen, 54 I was walking, and I had my foot! When I would go back to the hospital, I often saw my friend. She was still visiting people and 55 good cheer.

Her first experiments began with Alex. Alex was a one-year-old African grey parrot and Irene taught him to produce the sou nds of the English language. ―I thought if he learned to communicate, I could ask him questions about how he sees the world.‖At the time, most scientists didn’t believe animals had any thoughts. They thought animals were more like robots but didn’t have t he ability to think or feel. Of course, if you own a pet you probably disagree. But it is the job of a scientist to prove this and nowadays more scientists accept that animals can think for themselves.―That’s why I started my studies with Alex,‖ Irene said, ―Some people actually called me crazy for trying this.‖Nowadays, we have more and more evidence that animals have all sorts of mental abilities. Sheep can recognize faces. Chimpanzees (黑猩猩) use a variety of tools and even use weapons to hunt. And Alex the parrot became a very good talker.Thirty years after the Alex studies began. Irene was still giving him English lessons up until his recent death. For example, if Alex was hungry he could say ―want grape‖. Alex could count to six and was learning the sounds for seven and eight. ―He has to hear the words over and over before he can correctly say them.‖ Irene said, after pronouncing ―seven‖ for Alex a few times in a row. Alex could also tell the difference between colors, shapes, sizes, and materials (e.g. wood and metal). Before he finally died, Alex managed to say ―seven‖.Another famous pet that proved some animals have greater mental skills was a dog called Rico. He appeared on a German TV game show in 2011. Rico knew the names of 200 different toys and easily learned the names of new ones. When Rico became famous, many other dog owners wanted to show how clever their pets were. Another dog called Betsy could understand 300 words.One theory for dogs’ ability to learn a language is that they have been close companions to humans for many centuries and so their ability to understand us is constantly evolving (进化). While animals can’t do what humans do yet, some scientists believe that examples like Alex and Rico prove that evolution develops intelligence, as well as physical appearance.56. Irene wanted to find out __________.A. what a parrot thinksB. why a parrot can speakC. how parrots make soundsD. if parrots speak English57. Alex learnt new words by __________.A. singing themB. reading themC. writing themD. rehearing them58. The two dogs mentioned in the article could _______.A. understand some wordsB. recognize strange voicesC. copy human gesturesD. tell different colors59. The article concludes that ___________.A. our pets understand what we sayB. dogs may speak to humans one dayC. humans are related to chimpanzeesD. mental ability can evolve in animalsCoaches are the base of my life, next to my mother who raised me when my dad left us. I have been into sports since I was six years old. I have known many coaches and heard hundreds of their tips, but they usually focused on drills to develop my skills and reach the next level of play.When I was in Senior Two, I met the new school basketball coach, Brian Pawloski. I thought I was certain to be selected for the school team since I had been in it the year before. I showed up to the tryouts and put out about 90% effort since I thought I’d make it with no problem. That was a big mistake.Brian Pawloski is the hardest-working coach I have ever met. He didn’t expect 100% effort, he expected 200% effort. One example: he once made us do 40 suicide drills for the 40 lay-ups (投篮) we missed in a game. Some think this is crazy, but it isn’t. After this conditioning practice, as we were getting a cup of cold water to drink, I said, ―coach, that was the best practice I ever had.‖ I was completely sincere. This man was and is the person who influenced me most at my high school. He expects us to be excellent not just on the court but in the classroom. If I am not working on basketball, I am reading a book that he thinks will help us better understand life’s challenges, including Wooden, Coach, and The Screwtape Letters.In the first two years I slacked off, not putting forth my full potential. Now, unlike the coaches of my youth, this man was interested in how he did off the court. He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted. I can honestly say that on other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball, but more importantly, in life. My school is lucky to have such a great person to teach, coach and influence their students. I will always remember my high-school basketball days as one of the hardest times I have ever worked in my life not only in basketball but in my growth as an individual.60. Different from other coaches, Coach Brian ________.A. concentrated on skill trainingB. trained the team to the edge of deathC. expected the team to do well in their studiesD. asked the team to do more reading than training61. The underlined phrase ―slacked off‖ in the last paragraph probably means ________.A. paid no attentionB. showed no interestC. had less passionD. made less effort62. In the author’s eye, Coach Brian is ________.A. strict and helpfulB. hardworking and honestC. skilled and cruelD. professional and seriousAs we grow old, we realize that we have so little time to read and there are so many great books that we’ve yet to get around to. Ye re-readers are everywhere around us. For certain fans, re-reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually. One friend told me that Jane Austen’s Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times.New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading. Journalist Rebacca Mead, a long-time Englishwoman in New York, fir st came across George Eliot’s Middlemarch at 17. Since then, she has read it again every five years. With each re-reading, it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life, it has resonated (引起共鸣) differently. Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeat reads, but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spines. These kinds of books grow with us.Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re-reading. Research conducted with readers in the US found that on our first reading, we are concerned with the ―what‖ and the ―why‖. Second time round, we’re able to better appreciate the emotions that the plot continues to express. As researcher Cristel Russell of the American University explained, returning to a book ―brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers.‖It’s true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if we’re fond of making notes on the pages). These texts can carry us back to a time and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then. We’re changed not only by lived experience but also by read experience –by the books that we’ve discovered since last reading the one in our hand.More so than the movie director or the musician, the writer calls upon our imaginations, using words to lead us to picture this declaration of love or that unfaithfulness in life. A book is a joint project between writers and readers, and we must pour so much of ourselves into reading that our own life story can become connected with the story in the book.Perhaps what’s really strange is that we don’t re-read more often. After all, we watch our favourite films again and we wouldn’t think of listening to an album only once. We treasure m essy old paintings as objects, yet of all art forms, literature alone is a largely one-time delight. A book, of course, takes up more time, but as Mead confirms, the rewards make it adequately worthwhile.63. The two books are mentioned in Paragraph 1 mainly to __________.A. attract the attention of readersB. introduce the topic of the passageC. provide some background informationD. show the similarity between re-readers64. The underlined expression ―crack their spines‖ in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.A. recite themB. re-read themC. recall themD. retell them65. It can be learned from the passage that __________.A. reading benefits people both mentally and physicallyB. readers mainly focus on feelings on their first readingC. we know ourselves better through re-reading experienceD. writers inspire the same imaginations as film directors do66. The purpose of the passage is to __________.A. call on different understandings of old booksB. focus on the mental health benefits of readingC. bring awareness to the significance of re-readingD. introduce the effective ways of re-reading old booksEvery day we are exposed to images, videos, music and news. In this age of visual and aural hyper-stimulation, the medium of radio is making a great comeback.―We’re at the beginning of a golden age of audio,‖ said US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald. In the last month alone, 15 percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast (播客). These statistics, released by Edison Research, show the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the pres ent day’s digital podcast format. The term ―podcast‖ was invented in 2004, but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years. With the sharp increase in consumer demand for smartphones and tablets, podcast sales have jumped.The appeal of the podcast partly lies in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities (功能). You can listen during those extra minutes of the day when you’re walking to the shops, waiting in a queue or riding the subway. Similar to television shows, podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week.Donna Jackson, 22, Sydney University media graduate, listens to podcasts two or three times a week, via iTurns. ―I listen while I’m wandering around the house doing something else. It makes completing a boring task much more enjoyable… And it’s an easy way of keeping in touch with what’s going on in the rest of the world,‖ she said, ―I mainly listen to BBC podcasts, but recently I’ve also been listening to This American Life and Serial. They have a special skill to really draw you in.‖Unlike television and music, the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers. Blumberg says this owes to the podcast’s ability ―to create close relationship and emotional connection.‖ Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust, majoring in social work and arts, agrees. ―When you’re listening, it feels as if the voice of the podcast’s storyteller is talking directly to you. It’s comforting, ‖ said Proust.It seems the age-old tradition of verbal storytelling is very much alive and well.67. From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that ________.A. traditional broadcast has come backB. Americans love listening to the radioC. podcasts have become very popular todayD. smartphones sell well because of podcasts68. The writer mentions Donna Jackson mainly to ________.A. tell how young people relax themselvesB. explain why young people like podcastsC. introduce what programs podcasts are presentingD. show how popular podcasts are presenting69. Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________.A. the influence of radiosB. the advantage of podcastsC. readers’ impression on radiosD. people’s reaction to the medium70. What is probably the best title of the passage?A. Return of RadioB. Opinions of PodcastC. Features of RadioD. Technology of Podcast第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)House SittingIn many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting. It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.In Australia, many people travel. After people retire, they might buy a van and travel all over the country. 71 So if someone wants to travel or go away for some reason, they might want someone in their home to care for it and keep the gardens tidy. House sitters might have to care for pets. Also, quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yard and they need cleaning. 72 I feel it is a great way of seeing the country, because you go and stay in a new city, get to meet new people, and have time to go sightseeing in a new area.73 There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel, and by replying to the advertisement, you can make arrangements to go and look after their home.There are some requirements to be a house sitter. You must be a trusted person, so that the home owner knows you will not steal anything. You must be able to go when the house owner wants you to go, so you need lots of free time. 74 You need to be good with pets, able to care for cats and dogs, or other pets they may have.Some house sitting jobs are just for a few days or a couple of weeks while the house owner have a short holiday. Sometimes it is for much longer. We have had one house sit for six months, while the home owner travelled to Europe.75 Then you can travel to many different countries and stay there. One of the important things to get are references from the home owners where you have stayed. A reference is a written letter to say that you are trustworthy and have looked after their home well. You can show these letters to prospective house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job.A. I have done house sitting many times.B. Thousands of people do this all the time.C. It is also possible to do house sitting in other countries.D. Generally you have many opportunities to get a house sitting job.E. You must take a little care over what your description says about you.F. This is an international house sitting service for all city and country areas.G. You must have a good car, so you can travel to different parts of the country.第四部分:书面表达(共两节,35分)第一节(15分)假设你是校图书馆馆长的学生助理李华,图书馆要进行网络系统升级,请在阅览室向在场的留学生口头通知相关事宜,并请他们转告其他留学生。

I hesitated about whether to join in the game or not. Linda came to me and told me not to worry. Then I decided to join them. While running, I could hear my heart beating fast and I could hardly breathe. Just when I wanted to give up, I heard someone cheering on me and found that it was Linda. I regained my strength and kept running to the finishing line.With Linda’s encouragement and trust, I practiced running every day after school from then on.

On June 30th, there'll be ______ in our school.A. a school tripB. some visitorsC. a school concertD. some football matchesBAll students have to face their own problems when they are growing up. You may not think that having a good family is a problem. But for me, it was. I had to face the problem of being the youngest of the Smith girls.We live in a small town in Pennsylvania, US. There are three girls in the Smith family, Amanda, Theresa and me. People often say things to me, like" Oh, the three of you, you' re such nice girls. Your sisters are so pretty and so thin! You' re really nothing like them. "That made me sad.At school, all of my teachers had taught my sisters. On the first day of school, they said" Oh, the youngest of the three ! I hope you' re just like your sisters. They' re such wonderful students. "People always compared me with my sisters. So I couldn't help comparing myself with them, too. Theresa was smarter, Amanda was prettier. I began to work hard to be more like them. Whatmy sisters did, I did, too. At last, I became drum major(主鼓手)of our school's marching band. Both Amanda and Theresa had been drum majors. I became editor of the school' s newspaper. Theresa had been the editor two years before.But last year, Amanda went to college, and Theresa went to high school. Now I'm by myself at junior high. Everyone knows me, because I' m the drum major and the newspaper’s editor.Now I don' t feel like a Smith girl any more, I feel like myself. I' m proud of doing all of the same great things that my sisters did. But the best thing I did was to learn to stop comparing myself with them.( ) 4.

To be yourself.B. Stop working hard.C. Learn from the older.D. Do what others say.CDifferent weather makes people feel different. It influences (影响) health intelligence(智力)and feeling.In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ ( 智商) of a group students were very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% below. The wind can help people more intelligent. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).Weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.Low air pressure (气压)may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is a word "good weather" for people’s feeling and health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18 centigrade.Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful or unhappy today? It may be the weather's problem. ( ) 9.__________can have a bad effect on health.A. Hot and wet weatherB. Good weatherC. Warm weatherD. High intelligence( ) 10. People may have more intelligence when ________comes.A. a rainB. very hot weatherC. a strong windD. low air pressure( ) 11.In "good weather" of 18 centigrade,________.A. people are very forgetfulB. people can't do their work wellC. thin people feel coldD. people are in better health( ) 12The writer wants to tell us that_________.A. hot and cold weather influences all people in the same wayB. weather influences people's livesC. IQ never changes during weather changesD. there is a good kind of weather for people's work and health阅读还原I often hear some students say that English is difficult, and it gives them a headache so they can’t learn it well. But English is very easy for me. __1__. I’m very glad to tell you something about how I study English.__2__. When I started Grade 3 in primary school, we had a new subject—English. I was interested in it, so I worked hard at it. Soon we had an English exam and I got a very good mark. How happy I was! __3__.Second, I think English is a foreign language.

Good friendship has many benefits. It offers companionship, improves self-worth and promotes good health. There are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town, or changed our jobs or schools. Such changes often leaves us without a friend. Making new friends comes easy for some people. But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends.Associate with othersThe first step to making friends is associating with other people. You can go to public places to meet new people. Besides, you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places.Start a conversationStarting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends. Do not wait to be spoken to. You can always start the conversation. Being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people.Do things togetherChoosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together. Hanging out will always be a pleasant experience.Let it growIt is a good thing to stay in touch. However, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend. So you will need to give your friend time to react to you. The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally.Enjoy your friendshipThe best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves. Try not to find fault with your friends. Try not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be. Become the kind of friend you will want your friend to be to you.1. Is friendship very important for everyone?2. How do you associate with others?3. Why is choosing friends with common interests important?4. What will you do to enjoy your friendship according to the passage?5. What’s the passage mainly about?书面表达假如你叫李华,Tom是你初中阶段最要好的同学。
2015北京中考16区一模英语C-D阅读汇编.doc
2015(13区)初三一模英语---阅读汇编C,D篇1.【朝阳】CWhere did that number come from?Eleven and TwelveThe reason behind the change in number naming is that eleven comes from the German term ainlif, which translates to “one left”. Twelve follows the same rule. It comes fro m twalif—“two left”. Why teen is used instead of lif for 13 through 19? There is something sadly lost in history.911 for US Emergency (急救) CallsEarly phones didn’t use phone numbers—the operator had to connect your call by hand—and this led to the need for an emergency code (信号). But later phone numbers became popular, that changed. In 1967, 911 was chosen as the nationwide emergency call because it was easy to remember and could be quickly dialed (拨) on the phone.26.2 Miles in a Marathon (马拉松)The story began with an ancient Greek soldier carrying message from a battlefield (战场) in Marathon to Athens. The modern marathon was born as a flagship event in the first Olympic Games, in 1896, with a distance (距离) of about 25 miles (40 km), as long as the distance from Marathon to Athens. But race organizers for the 1908 Olympic Games in London wanted to add something special. The race began at Windsor Castle and ended at White City Stadium, with runners finishing only after passing the royal (皇室的) box. The distance was 26.2 miles (42.1 km). And since 1924 this distance has been kept in marathon.28 Days in FebruaryBefore using the Gregorian calendar that we use today, one of the first Roman calendars had only 304 days and ten months (March through December), with six months of 30 days and four of 31 days. The second king of Rome improved the old calendar. He added 50 days for January and February. To make the new months longer, he took one day from each of the 30-day months, making 56 days to divide between January and February (or 28 days each). Later January was given one more day to add up to 355 days a year, but February still had 28 days. That’s how it became the shortest month and it stayed that way ever since.48.

How many days were there in each month after the king improved the old calendar?A. 28, 29 or 31.B. 28, 30 or 31.C. 28, 29 or 30.D. 29, 30 or 31.D“The world has never been a better place to live in” says science writer Matt Ridley, “and it will keep on getting better.” Read on to see how Ridley mak es his case. Right or wrong? You decide.Compared with 50 years ago, when I was just four years old, people now make nearly three times as much money, eat one third more food and expect to live one third longer. In fact, it’s hard to find any areas of the world that’s worse off now than it was then, even though the world population has more than doubled over that period.One reason we are richer, healthier, taller, cleverer, longer-lived and freer than ever before is that the four most basic human needs—food, clothing, fuel and shelter—have grown much cheaper. Take one example: In 1800, a candle providing one hour’s light cost six hours’ work. In the 1880s, the same light from a lamp took 15 minutes’ work to pay for. In 1950, it was eight seconds. Today, it’s half a second. In these terms, we are 43,200 times better off than in1800.In the United States, rivers, lakes, seas and air are getting cleaner all the time. A car today produces less pollution traveling at full speed than a parked car did from leaks (泄漏) in 1970.Although the world population is growing, the rate (率) of increase has been falling for 50 years. Across the world, national birth rates are lower now than in 1960, and in the less developed world, the birth rate has almost halved. According to a research report from the United Nations, population will start falling once it reaches 9.2 billion in 2075. After all, there are already seven billion people on earth, and they are eating better and better.In 1970s, there were 550 billion barrels (桶) of oil reserves (储存) in the world, and in the 20 years that followed the world used up 600 billion. So by 1990, reserves should have been overused by 50 billion barrels. Instead, it is reported there are 900 billion today. They will last for many years and people will find something in place of oil long before they run out.The more we develop, the more we can develop. The more we invent, the more inventions become possible. For 200 years, pessimists (people who believe that terrible things will happen in future) have had all the headlines—even though optimists have far more often been right. There are some reasons for pessimists. No charity (慈善机构) ever raised money by saying things are getting better. No journalist ever got the front page writing a story abo ut how terrible things won’t happen. Don’t be a pessimist—dare to be an optimist!52. Today, providing one hour’s light costs ______.A. 6 hours’ workB. 15 minutes’ workC. 8 seconds’ workD. 0.5 second’s work53. Which of the following is true, according to the passage?A. Things we used to need were much cheaper than they are today.B. The pollution today is much more serious than it was long ago.C. Population problem has nearly made the world stop developing.D. It’s not necessary to be worried abo ut oil reserves in the world.54. What does the word “optimists” in the last paragraph mean?A. People who are brave enough to face anything terrible.B. People who can always tell good things from bad ones.C. People who have hopeful and happy feelings about life.D. People who don’t easily believe what they’re told about.55. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Never Give UpB. Cheer UpC. Don’t Be SadD. Think Out2.【房山】CUsually, when your teacher asks a question, there is only one correct answer. But there is one question that has millions of correct answers. The question is “What’s your name?” Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct.Have you ever wondered about people’s names? Where do they c ome from? What do they mean?People’s first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used. Some parents choose the name of a well-known person. A boy could be named Gorge Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.Some people give their children names that mean good things. Clara means “bright”; Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; Donald means “world ruler” ; Leonard means “as brave as a lion”.The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names. A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near a brook.; someone who was called Longstreet probably on a long, paved road. The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.Other ear ly surnames came from people’s occupations(职业). The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron(铁) or other metals. The ancestors(祖先) of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors. The Carpenter’s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses or furniture.Sometimes people were known for the color or their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities. When there were two who were named John in the same village, the John with the gray hair probably became John Gray. Or the John who was very tall could call himself John Tallman. John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.Some family names were made by adding something to the father’s name. English – speaking people add -s or – son. The Johnsons are descendants (后裔) of John. Irish and Scottish people add Mac or Mc or O. Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the O’Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.48. According to the passage , a girl is named Helen Keller Jones because .A. her family lives near Helen KellerB. she loves Helen KellerC. her parents admire Helen KellerD. she looks like Helen Keller49. An English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest, their family name is probably .A. SmithB. CarpenterC. LongstreetD. Greenwood50. The surnames in the passage do NOT cover .A. places where people livedB. people’s educationC. talents that people ownedD. people’s occupations51. According to the passage , Jackie Speaker is probably .A. a person who runs fastB. a person who listens moreC. a person who has black hairD. a person who is talkativeD.Have you wondered why you have two eyes and why they are set close together on the front of your face?The reasons are simple and important.Your eyes are like two small cameras. A camera catches an image(影像) of an object and records it on film. Similarly, when you look at something, each eye takes in what it sees and sends this image to the back of the eyeball. Because your eyes are set close together, they see the world from about the same height but from a little different angles(角度). While your right eye sees an object a little to the right, your left eye sees the same object a bit to the left. Working as a team, the eyes send the images to your brain, then your brain put them together and you see a single image in the center.Seeing in stereo means seeing with two eyes working tighter, which is called stereoscopic sight. This allows you to see the world in 3-D. Seeing depth(深度) helps you to judge how far it is between you and the objects you see, and then adjust(调整) to the changing angle so that you can see something clearly when you move closer or farther away. If images are coming from only one eye, however, height and width(宽度)—can be perceiced. So if you see with one eye, you will get a 2—D image, as in a photograph.Now consider why your two eyes are on the front of your face. Think of other animals just like you. They are all hunting(猎杀) animals, like lions and tigers. This provides a field of sight about 180 degree wide, which is called binocular sight. On the other hand, animals that are hunted have eyes on the sides of the head, which provides nearly 360—degree field of sight. However, they don’t have stereoscopic sight. It is difficult for them to judge how far a danger is.With both stereoscopic and binocular sight, humans and hunting animals share the ability to see from side to side and to judge how far it is from other objects. If you think it would be great to have another kind of sight, perhaps with hundreds of tiny eyes like many insects(昆虫) do, think again! Each tiny insect eye sees only a tiny part. Besides, what if you needed glasses? Be glad for the eyesight that you have.52. In Paragraph 2, the writer wants to .A. tell us how our two eyes worksB. show the importance of eyesC. compare our eyes with camerasD. suggest using two eyes properply53. The underlined word “perceiced”in Paragraph 3 means .A. setB. takenC. seenD. made54. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that “seeing in stereo”.A. is similar to the way a camera worksB. is an ability humans are lucky to haveC. would be better for a wilder field of sightD. helps people to have better sight than animals55. What is probably the best title for this passage?A. Seeing in stereoB. Protecting your eyesC. Treasuring your eyesD. Seeing with eyes3.【燕山】CIt was a cold winter day. A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth. “I’m paying for myself, and for the six cars behind me,” she said with a smile, handing over seven tickets. One after another,the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead alreadypaid your fare.”It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend’s refrigerator:“Practice random (随意的) kindness and sense less acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed (使某人印象深刻) hertollboothso much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman saw the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why she’d taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. Alice put it in the newspaper, saying that though she liked it, she didn’t know where it came from or what it really meant.Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was ina restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning itaround in her mind for days.“Here’s the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do itrandomly.” Her fantasies include painting the c lassrooms of shabby schools, leavinghot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence (暴力) can build on itself.”The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been encouraged to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours!48. Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?A. She had seven tickets.B. She hoped to please others.C. She wanted to show kindness.D. She knew the car drivers well.49. Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she ___ .A. thought it was beautifully writtenB. wanted to know what it really meantC. decided to write it on a warehouse wallD. wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom50. Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?A. Judy Foreman.B. Natalie Smith.C. Alice Johnson.D. Anne Herbert.51. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. People should practice random kindness to those in need.B. People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C. People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D. People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.DNo one else knew about the extra (额外的) club in Zach Nash's golf bag. It belonged to a friend, and Zach forgot it was there as he played his way to win in a junior tournament (锦标赛) this summer in Wisconsin, US.The 14-year-old accepted his medal, and celebrated with grandparents who had come from a long way to watch. But when he stopped by his country club to share the news, a professional player noticed something wrong. "Count your clubs," he told the teenager.Fifteen —one more than allowed. Zach's eyes filled with tears.If Zach had just won a basketball or a soccer game and someone had discovered an offence (违反) after the win, it would not have mattered.Bending the rules has become acceptable, if not encouraged, in many sports. It is nothing unusual for soccer players to make a turtle dive (假摔) in the hope of breaking rules.Golf is different. In a win at all costs world, the game holds itself to a higher standard.Golf isn't a game where referees (裁判) watch closely. In golf tournaments, dozens of competitors are spread across acres of land, so officials cannot hope to see each shot. Competitors call punishments on themselves. Players feel the weight of history. Golf began at least the 15th century, but it became popular as a pastime for the wealthy who seemed to always have strict rules of behavior, even when it came to shooting at each other in rights. "It was a sport for gentlemen, not laborers, and gentlemen did not care about winning. They cared about doing the right thing," said Robert Simon, a golf coach at Hamilton College in New York.Honesty became a symbol of honor. When one of the game's early stars, Bobby Jones, was praised for calling a penalty on himself at the 1925 US Open. He replied, "You might as well praise a man for not robbing a bank." So even the error had no effect on Zach's final score —he never used the extra club, the teenager packed up his medal and dropped it in the mail. "But this was golf, and rules are rules. I just knew what I had to do," he said. Then came another tournament. Before teeing off, Zach counted his clubs four times.52. Zach Nash returned the medal he won in the junior tournament because________.A .he was caught cheating by a playerB .he decided to follow the rules of golfC .he used another player's club by mistakeD .he made a mistake counting his final score53. Which of the following statements about golf is TRUE according to the passage?A .In golf, honor comes before win.B .Early golf players didn't care about the rules.C .Golf players usually do whatever it takes to win.D .Golf referees watch each shot and call punishments.54. The underlined phrase "teeing off" in the last paragraph probably means "____ ".A .getting startedB .getting caughtC .leavingD .winning55. What is probably the best title of the passage?A .Zach's medal.B .The history of golf.C .Honesty counts in golf.D .Golf is rich men's game.4.【丰台】CLooking for an original way to raise money for charity? Has your school run out of clever and fun ideas? Don’t give up. There are several ways to support your favorite charity and enjoy yourselves at the same time. clubs medalHow about holding a bean bath competition? “How does this help?”you may ask yourselves. Well, it’s very simple really- you agree to sit in a bath full of baked beans,then for every minute you stay in it, people pay money! The longer you stay in the bath,the more money you collect for the charity your school has chosen! It’s extremelymessy, but it’s good fun! Just a piece of advice, though. Let your parents know what you’re doing. Wear old clothes because they’re going to need washing after the competition!Here’s another idea that we used at my school: organize a car wash. Everybody who has a car sooner or later washes it or has it washed. So why don’t you and yourclassmates do the job? The money the car owners pay for having their cars washed willgo towards your charity. When we did it, we had an amazing time! At first, some of uswere worried about getting wet or dirty and it’s true. But we also had fun, and at the end of the day it was really worth it!On the other hand, if you don’t feel like getting wet or messy, but have some musical talent, how about organizing a street concert? Street musicians can make a lotof money and so can you if you’ve got the talent and courage it takes to play in front ofan audience. You just need to find a suitable place (make sure you’re allowed to playmusic in that public place), practise for a few hours with your friends first, and give it a try!I hope all these ideas have helped you a bit, and if you’ve got any other great suggestions, we would love to hear them. We can publish them, so other people can use them, too. Good luck!48. Holding a bean bath competition, you would______.A. ask yourselves many questionsB. sit in a bath full of baked beansC. put on old clothes after the bathD. ask your parents to wash the clothes49. What did the writer think of the car wash?A. He thought they could have fun.B. He was upset about getting wet.C. He thought many students were too worried.D. He thought it was an easy way to collect money.50. From the passage we can know the writer is a ___________.A. parentB. studentC. driverD. singer51. The writer writes this passage to_____________.A. ask readers to do something funny for charityB. tell readers about charity events they can go toC. suggest fun ideas for people to raise money for charityD. show some ways for people to organize charity eventsDFor me, Facebook is about staying in touch with friends, whether that means writing on someone’s ‘wall’or sending them a private message. It’s a useful website forfinding long-lost friends, arranging parties and sharing photos. But that’s not all:Facebook is now being used by all kinds of people for all kinds of reasons!Do you want to play computer games? Log on to Facebook. There are now thousands of entertaining gamesand puzzles to help you pass the time. Do you want to find cafés, cinemas and bowling alleys in your area?Log on to Facebook pages that you can join and ‘like’, which makes it very easy to search for fun things to do near you. I think it’s brilliant to have all the information that you want on just one website!People are now joining Facebook to make professional connections too, either with people who do the same kind of work, or with businesses that are looking for new people to work for them.It’s a pretty good idea since so many people use Facebook these days, especially young people! Even students log on to Facebook to look for summer or part-time jobs.And that’s not all! Now there are hundreds of pages about sports te ams, TV programmes and pop stars to look at on Facebook. However, I believe the main reason most young people use Facebook is because it’s so easy to let the world know what you think about different things or people, whether it’s abouta new film at the cinema or whether you prefer Rihanna with long or short hair. You can even writecomments directly on other people’s Facebook pages including some stars’ pages. But you have to be careful because giving your opinion online can be dangerous.We mustn’t forget that Facebook is meant to be fun and shouldn’t be used for saying bad things about people around us. I recently read a news article about a student who had to leave school because she made rude and unfair comments about a teacher on her Facebook wall. Several other school students have been in trouble for similar comments and opinions. In fact, it really annoys me when I see somebody has writtenIt’s true that Facebook is becoming more and more part of ou r daily lives for many different reasons, and it can be really helpful as well as being a lot of fun. But, as with all websites, we must be careful about how we use it.52. What does the writer think of the Facebook?A. It is easy for finding a long-lost friendB. It is dangerous for giving one’s opinionC. It is mainly used for business reasons these days.D. It is useful for finding entertainment information.53. Why does the writer think young people like Facebook so much?A. It’s a goo d place to read TV programmes reviews.B. They can have conversations about their interests.C. It’s the best place to find information about sports.D. They like having the chance to give their opinions.A. criticalB. privateC. unpleasantD. impolite55. What is the best title of the passage?A.

The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing(缝纫)or reading.After several months had gone by, I beg an to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible(可见的). Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing(批评)her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings(缺点)? Since then, whenever I wanted to judge(评判)someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.54.The writer was surprised that______.A.the woman was sitting by her windowB.the woman’s window was cleanC.the woman did cleaning in the afternoonD.the woman’s window was still terrible55.“It dawned on me”probably means“_______”.A.I began to understand itB.it cheered me upC.I knew it grew lightD.it began to get dark56.It’s clear that_______.A.t he writer had never met the woman beforeB.the writer often washed the windowC.they both worked as cleanersD they lived in a small town57.From the passage,we can learn that______.A.o ne shouldn’t criticize others very oftenB.one should often make his windows cleanC.one must judge himself before he judges othersD.one must look at others through his dirty windows(D)Farmer Ed Rawlings smiles as he looks at his orange trees. The young oranges are growing well in Florida’s weather. Warm sunshine and gentle rains, along with Ed Rawlings’ expert care, will produce a good crop(收成)of oranges this year.However, Ed has to guard against Florida’s changeable winter weather. In January and February, temperatures can destroy Ed’s entire orange crop. Having farmed in Florida for the past 35 years, Ed is preparedfor the frost(霜). When temperatures drop below freezing, Ed tries to save his crop by watering his orange trees. The water freezes and forms a thin layer(层) of ice around the trees. Strange as it may sound, this thin layer of ice actually keeps the fruit warm.What happens is simple. When the trees are watered, the water loses heat and becomes ice. The warmth of the heat it loses is taken in by the fruit and keeps its temperature at a safe level. Ed has effectively used this method to save many orange crops.But Ed still faces difficulties. The trees must be watered at the exact moment the temperature drops to the freezing point. Also, just the right quantity(数量)of water must be used. Too much water can form a thicker layer of ice that will break the tree’s branches(树枝). Another difficulty is that wind blows away the heat, so Ed has to worry about not only when but also how often his trees should be watered, and how much water should be used.Computer techn ology may help Ed with some of these worries. With equipment(设备), air and soil temperatures and wind speed can be measured. The information is fed into a computer which can calculate(计算) when the temperature will drop below freezing. The computer can correctly decide the quantity of water to be used and how frequently( ) the trees should be watered. Ed finds looking after his orange trees a lot easier with the help of a computer, and, his customers will have the benefits(利益) of computer—age oranges.58.The passage is mainly about______.A. a farmer expert cares for his orange treesB.the different uses of computersC.growing oranges in Florida’s changeable weatherD.different ways of frost protection59.Ed tries to protect his crop by______.ing a wind machine to drive away the cold airB.equipping his orange trees with a computerC. watering it at the proper timeD picking his fruit at the first sign of frost60.According to the passage, the computer technology______.A.removes the need for frost protectionB.prevents temperature from droppingC.tells farmers why outdoor temperatures changeD. helps the farmer get a better harvest7.【怀柔】CThere are many online food shopping sites. This is very surprising. Things like CDs, books, and DVDs sell well online. But it is quite different to sell food online because people like to see food with their own eyes. It is very important for people to buy fresh fruit and vegetables. Customers like to choose their food by its colour. They also want to touch and smell it. But some people like to go to the same shop to buy food, because they think the food there has a very good quality. So if the food is always good, they may also feel comfortable buying it online.Boxes of fruits and vegetables have been delivered(递送) to homes around Britain for a few years now. Dried。

The LakeThe day when Robert was born was the happiest day of my life. Unfortunately my wife decided she no longer wanted to be married to me. My little boy and I had to 31 , only getting to see each other every other weekend.One day, I decided to go fishing with my son, who was about 5 years old, at a nearby lake. We arrived at the lake early. Getting out of the car, we brought out all of the fishing equipment and our life jackets and the cooler that had our tasty lunch in it. I could just 32 the day in my mind in hopes that it would never end. We both went out onto the dock(船坞)and I thought, “Do I put his life jacket on first or load the boat first?” I saw him skipping rocks on the water, so I decided to load the boat first.I was just finishing up when I heard the splash. I turned and looked quickly expecting to see Robert 33 standing there, but I did not see him anywhere. I jumped into the water to save my son immediately. I searched and searched but found him nowhere. I came up for a breath hoping to see him above water, now wondering how I could find him in the murky(浑浊的)water. I finally decided to go all the way to the bottom and 34 around, not coming up until I found him.Finally, there on the bottom he was, his arms wrapped around the wooden pole that holds up the dock. I brought him to the 35 and put him on the bank. While both of us were coughing and spitting out water, I just hugged him and was 36 that I had found him in time.When things finally calmed down, I asked one simple question, “Robert, why were you 37 onto that pole on the bottom of the lake?” He looked at me with the most innocent and loving eyes and simply replied, “I was waiting for you, Daddy. I knew you would come to 38 me.”I thought that I could not be any 39 or any madder at the same time and I just told him, “I sure do love you, sweetheart.”He replied, “I love you too, Dad.”There is no amount of money or cars or jobs or any material thing that could replace being loved and 40 someone so much. I am lucky to have the ability to love on such a high level, and the ability to forgive on the same level.31. A. back B. part C. argue D. move32. A. picture B. enjoy C. show D. spend33.
