Ⅲ.阅读理解(每小题2分,共10分)
A
An Mingzhong, a 12-year-old boy from Sichuan, used to be lazy. In his own words, he rarely did any housework. But now, things have changed. Washing the dishes, cooking and making the bed... all of these tasks have become part of his daily life.
This big change is the result of a new program at his school. Starting from last term, Dazhou No. 1 Middle School has made housework part of its students, homework to improve their life skills. At the beginning of each month, every student gets a list of housework to do every weekend.
Their parents help them keep track of(掌握……的进展情况) their performance. Some of the tasks are quite specific(具体的), such as cleaning out closets, washing cups and cooking food. On holidays like Mother’s Day, students are asked to prepare gifts for their mothers.
Wang Yixi, 13, has learned several life skills through the program, including cooking. “I used to be afraid of fire,” she said. But she tried to overcome(克服) her fear and complete her cooking tasks. At the same time, she also learned how tired her mother gets after doing housework every day. On Mother’s Day, she made a cake for her mother to show her thanks. “I’ve begun to better understand my parents and want to help them more,” she said.
Other schools in Sichuan are also developing programs to teach their students life skills. On May 2, Qinghe Middle School in Huaying held a life skill competition. Students had to complete many tasks, including cooking and folding clothes. They showed their skills and proved(证明) that they are growing up.
21. What does the underlined word “rarely” mean in this passage
A. Often. B. Sometimes. C. Usually. D. Seldom.
22. When do the students in Dazhou No. 1 Middle School get a list of housework to do every weekend
A. At the beginning of each week. B. At the beginning of each month.
C. On Mother’s Day. D. On May 2.
23. What did Wang Yixi do on Mother’s Day
A. She made a cake. B. She cleaned out closets.
C. She washed cups. D. She made a list of housework to do.
24. According to the passage, why did Qinghe Middle School hold a life skill competition
A. Because students had to complete many tasks about housework.
B. Because it could teach students life skills and prove that they are growing up.
C. Because the competition could help students learn how tired their parents are after doing housework.
D. Because it wanted to help parents keep track of students’ performance.
25. After taking part in the programs, students in the passage may NOT ______.
A. decide to share the housework with their parents
B. cook food for themselves when parents are out
C. clean up the living room together when they finish a party
D. sit down in front of the TV all the time on weekends
B
“Do the dishes. Take out the rubbish.” Do your parents say these words to you Of course they do. Why Well, someone has to do them. They are chores—small everyday duties. You may get money for doing a chore or you may not. Parents and other people don’t always give commands(命令). Sometimes they ask. How do you ask politely(礼貌地) In English, the word “could” is used for requests(请求). You must remember it when your friend invites you to her party or the time you ask your parents if you might stay up late. If you use “could”, it’s a nice way of asking for permission. And when your mom says, “Could you make your bed ” she is asking you “politely” to do a chore.

IV.任务型阅读(每小题2分,共10分)
Most students do not enjoy doing housework. Some of them think that cleaning the bathroom or cooking dinner for the family is boring. However, housework is not as boring as you think; here are some useful ways for you to try.
Learn to do small things. You should learn to do small things. For example, you can do the dishes, sweep the floor or make the bed. Part of growing up is to learn to take care of yourself. Doing some small things around the house shows that you are becoming responsible(有责任感的). Divide(划分) housework among the family. In fact, it’s too tiring for one person to do all the housework alone. It’s good to divide housework into different parts. All the family members will do the housework together. Dividing housework among all the family members will make everyone’s job much easier.
Make it fun. Cooking is one part of housework.
Cooking can be very fun if you put your heart into it. If you learn how to cook your favorite food, you will also be satisfied with yourself.

Ⅷ.
Last weekend, I got up early and cooked noodles for my parents. First, I boiled some water. Then I put some noodles into the pot. About five or six minutes later, I placed them in the bowls and added some salt and oil. When my parents got up, they were surprised and praised me with a big smile.
It was the first time that I cooked for them. A little bit tired but happy, I felt proud of myself because I could take care of my parents. From this unforgettable experience, I’ve also got a deeper understanding of my parents.
I think it’s our duty to share some housework. Besides, doing some hard housework is a kind of physical exercise. As teenagers, we should take action to help around the house!
