Ⅵ.阅读理解 (1)
COVID 19 has made people think harder about their relationship with nature.It has also raised questions about our lifestyles.The sharing economy(经济),working in open offices,living in crowded apartments and the food industry's use of reusable products have made the perfect storm for a pandemic(大流行病).
It's cheaper to rent than to own,so the sharing economy might be good,but sharing spaces and objects is a great way to spread the virus(病毒).How does one keep away from others when they are expected to share cars,bikes,apartments and even the same offices
The trend of using open offices,which can save space,is working against us.In this type of office,workers don't have their own desk—everything is shared.Sometimes,computers and chairs are also shared,which is not hygienic(卫生的).Fortunately,more workers are working from home during the pandemic,but that won't last forever.
Reusability is a common practice in the restaurant industry.Reusable cups and chopsticks are often used.Unluckily,reusable products increase the chance of spreading disease.For example,a coffee company recently stopped refilling customers' reusable cups in order to stop the spread of the virus.
People like to be social.But the virus has made this more dangerous.We have to be careful about how we interact(交往)with others from now.Perhaps we need to rethink about our lifestyles to reduce the spread of future pandemics.
( )1.According to the writer,an advantage of the sharing economy is that ______.
A.it lasts longer B.it costs less C.it's popular D.it's hygienic
( )2.The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to “______”.
A.the trend of using open offices B.everything being shared
C.the hygienic problems of open offices D.workers working from home
( )3.According to the writer,restaurants can spread the virus easily because ______.
A.everything is shared in many restaurants B.they use too many cups and chopsticks
C.many restaurants have poor hygiene D.cups and chopsticks are often reused
( )4.The writer probably agrees that ______.
A.we need to change some of our lifestyles B.the sharing economy won't last forever
C.no one can stay out of the sharing economy D.we shouldn't stay away from shared products

Hello listeners!This is Penny Lane on Radio K.I.D.I am bringing you the midday news.
Yesterday,a badly injured ten year old child was rushed to hospital after an accident in a fun run at a local school.The fun run event is part of the fitness program being organized at Clara Primary School to improve the health of children at the school.The event began on the playground,went into a park at the back of the school,and finished under trees near the school office block.Late in the race,Jai Smith,a student at the school,fell down because of a rock.“I was just running as fast as I could.While I was passing the finishing line,I fell over the rock,” Jai told our reporter Jack.A teacher at the scene(现场)said,“We had checked the whole racing course for the run just before the gun went off.It looks like a rock was put there just after we checked.Young Jai had a good chance of winning before he was hurt.”
Who put the rock at the end of the race?Whose responsibility(责任)should it be?Teachers at the school may be asked to give a report to the police.
( )1.Which of the following is the right order of the events
a.A rock was found on the way.

c.The teachers checked the racing course.
d.Jai was interviewed by the reporter.
A.c-b-a-d B.a-b-c-d
C.b-c-a-d D.d-b-a-c
( )2.What's the main reason for the accident
There were too many rocks on the racing course.
B.Someone fell on the top of Jai when Jai was on the ground.
C.The teachers didn't check the racing course before the race.

( )3.Which of following would be the best title
A.Who Put the Rock on the Way in the Race
B.How Did the Accident Happen in the Race

There's much to see under the sea,but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air.The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are.You might find yourself reaching out to touch something but completely missing it.
Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface,too.Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away.The fish might not be so big after all!It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!
What's more,in deeper water,colors just don't seem as bright.In fact,it looks as if some colors are missing.Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths(波长)of light that are reflected from its surface.And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.
Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater.Let's take a bright red,yellow,and blue wet suit as an example.These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water.Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water.The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths,the longest among these three colors,are missing.As you go down deeper,the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part.Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater,you will look terrible,like a ghost!And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again.
Do you have a better understanding of the behavior of the light underwater?We need to care about the objects around us and explore(探索)their mysteries by ourselves.
( )5.You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because ______.
A.your eyesight is quite poor B.your hands are not quick enough
C.it is not as close as it seems D.it disappears very quickly
( )6.The underlined word “descend” in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”.
A.move up B.move on water C.stop breathing for a while D.go down
( )7.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.A four meter long fish looks three meters long underwater.
B.Much water will be taken in by the swimmer deep in the water.
C.The wavelengths of red light are longer than those of the blue light.
D.You will see a ghost if you go as deep as 6 to 9 meters into the sea.
( )8.What does the passage mainly talk about
A.The standard of color underwater. B.The direction of light underwater.
C.The beauty of color underwater. D.The behavior of light underwater.

COVID 19 has made people think harder about their relationship with nature.It has also raised questions about our lifestyles.The sharing economy(经济),working in open offices,living in crowded apartments and the food industry's use of reusable products have made the perfect storm for a pandemic(大流行病).
It's cheaper to rent than to own,so the sharing economy might be good,but sharing spaces and objects is a great way to spread the virus(病毒).How does one keep away from others when they are expected to share cars,bikes,apartments and even the same offices
The trend of using open offices,which can save space,is working against us.In this type of office,workers don't have their own desk—everything is shared.Sometimes,computers and chairs are also shared,which is not hygienic(卫生的).Fortunately,more workers are working from home during the pandemic,but that won't last forever.
Reusability is a common practice in the restaurant industry.Reusable cups and chopsticks are often used.Unluckily,reusable products increase the chance of spreading disease.For example,a coffee company recently stopped refilling customers' reusable cups in order to stop the spread of the virus.
People like to be social.But the virus has made this more dangerous.We have to be careful about how we interact(交往)with others from now.Perhaps we need to rethink about our lifestyles to reduce the spread of future pandemics.
( B )1.According to the writer,an advantage of the sharing economy is that ______.
A.it lasts longer B.it costs less C.it's popular D.it's hygienic
( D )2.The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to “______”.
A.the trend of using open offices B.everything being shared
C.the hygienic problems of open offices D.workers working from home
( D )3.According to the writer,restaurants can spread the virus easily because ______.
A.everything is shared in many restaurants B.they use too many cups and chopsticks
C.many restaurants have poor hygiene D.cups and chopsticks are often reused
( A )4.The writer probably agrees that ______.
A.we need to change some of our lifestyles B.the sharing economy won't last forever
C.no one can stay out of the sharing economy D.we shouldn't stay away from shared products

Hello listeners!This is Penny Lane on Radio K.I.D.I am bringing you the midday news.
Yesterday,a badly injured ten year old child was rushed to hospital after an accident in a fun run at a local school.The fun run event is part of the fitness program being organized at Clara Primary School to improve the health of children at the school.The event began on the playground,went into a park at the back of the school,and finished under trees near the school office block.Late in the race,Jai Smith,a student at the school,fell down because of a rock.“I was just running as fast as I could.While I was passing the finishing line,I fell over the rock,” Jai told our reporter Jack.A teacher at the scene(现场)said,“We had checked the whole racing course for the run just before the gun went off.It looks like a rock was put there just after we checked.Young Jai had a good chance of winning before he was hurt.”
Who put the rock at the end of the race?Whose responsibility(责任)should it be?Teachers at the school may be asked to give a report to the police.
( A )1.Which of the following is the right order of the events
a.A rock was found on the way.
b.Jai fell on the ground.
c.The teachers checked the racing course.
d.Jai was interviewed by the reporter.
A.c-b-a-d B.a-b-c-d
C.b-c-a-d D.d-b-a-c
( D )2.What's the main reason for the accident
A.There were too many rocks on the racing course.

( D )3.Which of following would be the best title
A.Who Put the Rock on the Way in the Race
B.How Did the Accident Happen in the Race

There's much to see under the sea,but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air.The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are.You might find yourself reaching out to touch something but completely missing it.
Objects under water will appear larger than they would on the surface,too.Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away.The fish might not be so big after all!It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!
What's more,in deeper water,colors just don't seem as bright.In fact,it looks as if some colors are missing.Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths(波长)of light that are reflected from its surface.And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.
Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater.Let's take a bright red,yellow,and blue wet suit as an example.These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water.Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in water.The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths,the longest among these three colors,are missing.As you go down deeper,the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part.Even at a place of about 6 to 9 meters underwater,you will look terrible,like a ghost!And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again.
Do you have a better understanding of the behavior of the light underwater?We need to care about the objects around us and explore(探索)their mysteries by ourselves.
( C )5.You miss the object underwater when you want to touch it because ______.
A.your eyesight is quite poor B.your hands are not quick enough
C.it is not as close as it seems D.it disappears very quickly
( D )6.The underlined word “descend” in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”.
A.move up B.move on water C.stop breathing for a while D.go down
( C )7.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.A four meter long fish looks three meters long underwater.
B.Much water will be taken in by the swimmer deep in the water.
C.The wavelengths of red light are longer than those of the blue light.
D.You will see a ghost if you go as deep as 6 to 9 meters into the sea.
( D )8.What does the passage mainly talk about
A.The standard of color underwater. B.The direction of light underwater.
C.The beauty of color underwater. D.The behavior of light underwater.

What Happened to Jack
This morning,we found that Jack's eyes were red.What happened to him?We guessed.
Some of the boys thought that he might play mobile games all night,because he always spent a long time doing that.But some girls didn't agree.They believed that he might do his homework very late.
Others thought that he was watching TV the whole night,because there was an NBA game last night.But I didn't agree with them.His parents were very strict with him,so he couldn't play games or watch TV.
Then,we asked him during the break,and he said he caught a bad cold and didn't sleep well.Poor Jack!
