二、阅读理解[2019四川凉山州中考]
At about 6 p.m. on Saturday, a forest fire broke out in a village in Mu Li, Liangshan. The local government acted quickly and 689 people were sent to put out the fire. Fire groups were fighting the fire on Sunday when a sudden change of wind direction caused "a huge fireball". 27 firefighters and 3 locals lost their lives. Most of the firefighters were in their twenties and two of them were less than twenty. Their death touched our hearts all over China. There is enough reason to regard them as heroes. President Xi Jinping, Premier Li Keqiang and many other leaders cared for the heroes and expressed condolences(慰问) to the heroes' families and friends.
We should remember all the heroes and their spirit, bravery showed in fighting the fire. As the old saying goes: a nation is lost without its memories. Forest fires are common in spring; rules to prevent(阻止) fires have come out in Liangshan. Many experts believe there are some reasons for forest fires. The first reason is weather change. Warmer and drier weather leads to dangerous fire conditions(状况). Next, lightning is another reason. Dry grass and trees easily catch fire. Finally, hot winds add to the possibility(可能) of forest fires. The wind can make a fire spread quickly. However, 90% of forest fires are caused by humans, according to a report. Forest fires can burn at over 900 °C and reach heights of more than 50 meters. Forest fires can move at speeds of up to 23 kilometers an hour, burning everything ----trees, brush, homes, even people... Experts remind people to be careful during the holiday of Qingming, known as Tomb Sweeping Day. Millions of people travel to their homes during the holiday, so the risks of fires in mountains are high.
In order to keep the heart-broken lesson in mind, we should stop fires from happening again.
1. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. All the firefighters who lost their lives were in their twenties,
B. About 700 people were sent to put out the fire.
C. A sudden change of wind direction led to "a huge fireball",
D. The death of the heroes touched our hearts around China.
2. All of the following can cause forest fires except ____ in the passage.
A. weather change B. lightning and hot winds
C. human behavior D. Tomb Sweeping Day
3. What does the underlined sentence mean in this passage?
A. We should remember the reasons for forest fires, including the conditions from nature and humans.
B. We should remember the heroes and their spirit, bravery showed in fighting the fire.
C. We should remember the number of the heroes that lost their lives in fighting the fire.
D. We should remember to be careful during the holiday of Qingming, known as Tomb Sweeping Day.
4. What is the character of forest fires from the passage?
A. Forest fires can burn at more than 900C and reach heights of over 50 meters.
B. Forest fires can move at speeds of up to 23 kilometers an hour.
C. Forest fires can burn everything ---- trees, brush, homes, even people.

Healthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice on healthy eating.
Eating with others. It can help you see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.
Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty --sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.
Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.
Eat healthy snacks like fruit, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn't mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.
Don't eat dinner late. With our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8--10 hours.

I'm a virus for the common cold. It has been a long time since I infected humans last time. Today I tried to infect a boy in a primary school all day.
His name is Sam. I waited on his desktop, and when he touched the desk I jumped on his finger. Unluckily, Sam didn't touch his eyes, mouth or nose. Then, right after class, he washed his hands. Now I’m full of soap and sitting in a sink!
Tuesday, January 22nd
This morning I jumped into the nose of Sam's best friend, Bill. Unluckily, the mucus in his nose caught me. I thought it was over for me, when suddenly Bill sneezed while he was talking to Sam.
I knew that would send me right into Sam's face! However, Sam quickly gave Bill a tissue, and Bill sneezed into that instead! Infecting people is harder than I imagined.
Wednesday, January 23rd
I’m feeling very unhappy today. Some scientists caught my friend Harry and put him under a microscope. Harry is a flu virus and he's a dangerous little guy. Besides, Sam ate all his vegetables today. He's exercising, and he's getting eight hours of sleep every night. His body is too strong for me!
Thursday, January 24th
I tried to infect Sam again today, but he washed his hands five times and never touched his face! He also gave tissues to every student in his class who was sneezing. It's impossible to give him a cold! So I have to give up and I'm moving to another school.

Every year, people from every corner of the world travel to Australia to meet the kangaroo -- the lovely, unusual and special Australian animal that jumps all over this sunburnt continent(大陆). There is a young kangaroo that is lucky to be alive today, thanks to meeting a pair of New South Wales teenagers.
Nick Heath and Jack Donnelly were riding their motorbikes in the bush outside Sydney on Sunday when they came across a kangaroo stuck in the mud(泥). The boys were lucky enough to see the head of the animal sticking out of the mud at Agnes Banks near the Nepean
River in southwest Sydney.
The animal was clearly in pain but the boys couldn't reach it so they raced home to get a rope. When they returned, Mr. Donnelly tied the rope around his waist(腰) and walked into the thick mud to get hold of the kangaroo while his friend then pulled them about 30m to
safety.
Appearing on Today this morning, the young men retold their story.
"The kangaroo's life was important to us, so we pulled out all the stops to rescue it." Mr. Heath said. "We're proud of what we did. If we see something like that again, we'll do it all over," Mr. Heath added.
The animal, which was not in great health after being saved, was handed to Wildlife Rescue Organization. It's believed that it's very hot and the kangaroo was likely searching for water in the dry conditions when it got stuck in the mud,
As for the heroes of the story, they're glad to have been in the right place at the right time to help the animal and don't care about the attention it's brought.
" Yeah we liked it, something different," Mr. Donnelly told the reporters.

A young lady was driving a family car home with her father when they were caught in a heavy storm. The young lady was a little afraid and asked her father, "What should I do, stop or keep driving?"
Her father said," Keep driving."
After driving a few kilometers, the storm was becoming heavier and heavier. The young lady noticed that some cars and big transport trucks were pulling over(靠边停) to the side of the road. The young lady asked her father again if they should stop. But her father said nothing. So, she had to keep on driving.
Ten minutes later, the storm started to become small and she could see a little more clearly. After a couple of kilometers, she drove out of the storm. Moreover, the sun came out and the road ahead was dry.
Her father told her to stop and get out of the car.
"But why now, Father?" she asked in surprise.
Her father said, "When you get out, you can look back at all the people in cars and big trucks that gave up and they are still in the storm. Now, your storm is over because you didn't give up."
Don't give up, even if the stronger do. If you keep going, soon your "personal storms" will be over. The sun will shine on you again and the road ahead will be dry and clear.
