It was in the room at the end of that building. The lamps gave poor light. I opened the door. To my horror, there were two dead people lying on both sides, with white clothes on their faces. I was very much frightened. My hair stood on end. I thought if one of them came back to life, he or she would catch hold of me and would say, “I’m not dead.” What would happen But I had another thought. I should be brave enough. I had to take the stethoscope for my teacher. So I shut my eyes and walked quietly towards the desk. I took the stethoscope in my hand and rushed out as fast as I could. When I handed it to my teacher, he said I had brought him the wrong one. I had to go back again. This time I was not as frightened as before. When my teacher saw the stethoscope, he smiled and said, “You have passed your examination.”

The 17th-century I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rish farmer Rober Cook was the most unusual person in County Waterford. He always wore white linen(被单). His underwear, night clothes and shirts were all in white, and so were his suits, coats and hats. He became so famous for his clothes and his love for white that he was known all over Ireland as “Linen Cook”.

Cook was an eage ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r vegetarian（素食者） and refused to eat the flesh of any animal or to wear anything produced by an animal.
A fox which ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )attacked (袭击) his chickens was not killed when it was caught. Instead, he gave it a talk on the evils (罪恶) of murder, then offered it a sporting chance by making it run through a line of his farm workers, who had sticks.
Cook had ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a long and healthy life and showed that “water for drink, vegetables for food and linen and other plant life for clothing were enough to live on.”
He died in 172 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )6 when he was over eighty years old and was buried in a white linen shroud (寿衣).

A computer can ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )get very hot when it works on a lot of programs. It can cost a lot to cool the computer. So some scientists want to know what would happen if the heat from the computer could be used.
Large Int ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ernet companies such as Google and Microsoft have thousands of computers. As these computers deal with information, they produce lots of heat, so they need huge cooling systems. These systems send the heat into the air.
A company in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Holland (荷兰) thinks paying to make the computers work and then paying again to cool them are a waste of energy. So the company developed a special device—the e-Radiator.
Boaz Leup ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e, head of the company, says that e-Radiator works as a heating system and saves money. He explains that the energy is used twice—once to heat the home and once to cool the computer and that the users don’t have to pay to cool their computers.
Five homeow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ners in Holland are testing the heating system in their homes.
“We pay ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )for the computer using, so, in that way, homeowners get heating for free.” Boaz says.
Jan Visser ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is one of the homeowners. “If you use the computer more, the e-Radiator producers more heat, ”he says, “It cannot provide enough heat if you don’t use your computer often.” But he is ready to try it. It’s a great help for his family.
The c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ompany says e-Radiators produce heat temperatures of up to 55℃. It says the system could save its users about $440 a year.
41. Before the e-Radia ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tor appears, usually the heat of a computer ______.
A. is sent into the air B. helps the five homeowners
C. is used twice D. makes the computer work better
42. The e-radiator is mainly used _____.
A. to help Microsoft B. to provide heat
C. to heat the computer D. to drive the computer
43. The Chinese mea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ning of the word “device” in this passage is probably “____”.
A.节能 B. 实验 C. 开关 D. 仪器
44. How much could the system save its users a month
A. About 20 dollars. B. About 440 dollars.
C. About 36 yuan. D. About 36 dollars.
45. The best title of the passage may be “_____”.
A. An Environment Problem B. The Future Computers
C. A New Way to Heat Homes D. The Energy to Be Wasted

“I love you” might ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )be one of the most important sentences in the English language. It shows the closeness among family members and friends.
In Chinese, “I love ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )you” translates as “我爱你”, but the way it's used in China might be a little different, and Chinese are wondering why.
The Global Times r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eports that two online videos showing children telling their parents "I love you" have been widely spread in China. The first, filmed by an Anhui TV station, shows a number of college students telling their parents they love them. The answers are mixed. “Are you drunk ” asked one parent. In another similar video, a father even said— “I am going to a meeting, so cut the crap(少废话).”
Even the posi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tive attitudes make it clear that the words are expressed rarely(很少地). “I am so happy you called to say that. It is the happiest thing that happened to me in 2014,” one parent answered.
However, Chinese fa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )milies hardly use those words. “The parents’ answers show that many Chinese are not good at expressing positive feelings,” Xia Xueluan, a Sociologist from Peking University, told the Global Times. “They are used to educating children with negative language.”
This isn't the fi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rst time that China has done some soul-searching about familial love — last year China Daily asked a lot of people if they said 'I love you' to their parents, lovers, and children. “I have never said ‘I love you’ to my family, and I don't think I will in the future," one 56-year-old told the paper, "Saying it aloud is embarrassing for me.”
Still, that do ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )esn't mean that love can’t be expressed. In another article, China Daily spoke to Zhao Mengmeng, a 31-year-old woman who said she had never told her father she loved him face-to-face. Sometimes actions speak louder than words, however — Zhao gave her father, a photo album featuring photographs of them together on every one of her birthdays in June 2012. The pictures were popular online, being forwarded hundreds of thousands of times on Weibo. Her father was very excited when he heard about it.
42. What can we infer（ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )推断） from the parents’ answers in Paragragh3 and 4
A. Some parents don’t love their children.
B. Parents in China are too busy.
C. Most C ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hinese students rarely express their positive feelings to their parents.
D. Children in China are always taught negative language.
43. What wil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l that 56-year-old person feel if he/she says “I love you” to the families
embarrassed B. excited C. proud D. unhappy
44. Why did Zhao gi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve her father a photo album instead of saying "I love you"
A. The album is more expensive.
B. His father likes the album better.
C. She thinks actions speak louder than words sometimes.
D. She hates saying "I love you" to her father.
45. What’s the best title for the passage
A. I Love You B. A Photo Album

【2016中考模拟】阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳的答案。
English is the m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ost widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mails are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.
However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.
And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham If the plural (复数) of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites（相反） How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
16. According to the passage ______.
A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different things
B. there should be egg in an eggplant
C. pineapples are the apples on the pine tree
D. boxing rings should be round
17. Which of the following is the correct plural
A. Beeth. B. Geese. C. Meese. D. Tooth.
18. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning
A. A wise man and a wise guy. B. Overlook and oversee.
C. Quite a lot and quite a few. D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.
19. The underlined words “wind up” in the last paragraph probably mean “______”.
A. blow B. roll up C. get hurt D. finish

When you’re not at ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 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 hom ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e 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 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )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, sm ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )art 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-u ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sers, 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 allow its owner to get home information from anywhere, it leaves the home easy to be attacked by hackers, who may secretly use or change the information in the system.
Now, many scientis ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts are excited at the future of smart home technology. Imagine being able to get fashion advice from your mirror, or receive food shopping suggestions from your refrigerator. While there are others who worry that those smart devices will make people lazier and lonelier. Whatever it is, one thing is for sure---smart home technology will change the way we live and work.

When was the last time you wrote a letter
A recent survey ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of 1,000 teenagers around the world found that a third of today’s teenagers had never written a letter, half had not written a thank-you letter, around 83 percent had never written a love letter, and a quarter had not even written a birthday or Christmas card. In fact, 58 percent of teenagers complained that handwriting was “too slow” and 17 percent believed it was “outdated”.
These results have cau ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sed worries that the art of handwriting may one day die out, even though many people still think it is an important skill.
“Handwriting ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is one of the most creative art forms we have and should be given the same importance as other art forms such as sketching(素描)，painting，or photography，”Jonathan Skyrme, general manager of BIC UK &Ireland, told the Daily Mail.
The New York ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Times explained that a handwritten letter sends a message in a way that online messages can never do. “When you get an e-mail, you can never be sure that you are the only person to have received it—or even that it was written by the person who sent it,” said the newspaper.
As US author Simon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Garfield once wrote，“E-mails are a poke(蜻蜒点水), but letters are a loving touch.”
So imagine the power ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ful message you will send if you actually write out your thoughts for another person by hand, buy a stamp, take your note to a mailbox and wait days for your special someone to receive it. Their smile at your thoughtfulness will say it all.
31. What can we learn from Paragraph 2？
A. Most teenagers hadn’t written a love letter.
B. The art of handwriting may disappear one day.
C. 300 teenagers of today’s had never written a letter．
D. Over half teenagers thought handwriting was out of date．
32. The New York Times and Simon Garfield may both agree that_______．
A. letters have some advantages over E-mails
B. letters and E-mails have their own advantages
C. Handwriting is as important as other art forms
D. letters and E-mails send a message in the same way
33. Which is true according to the last paragraph
A. It is funny to post a letter. B. It’s boring to wait for a letter.
C. People are glad to receive a letter. D. It’s a waste of time to write a letter.

Wild ducks and ot ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )her birds could be important carriers of deadly bird flu, researchers say. Even so, experts say there is no solid basis for killing wild birds to protect poultry （家禽） and reduce the risk of human infection.
The European team researching into the global spread of the H5N1 bird flu says certain duck species may be infecting wild bird populations. Geese and water birds are also possible vectors （带菌者）of the virus, the team says.
The team’s study was led by Bj rn Olsen of Umea University in Sweden. Olsen runs Europe’s largest wild-bird flu monitoring program.
Studies have shown that bird flu viruses in lake water, generally passed through bird waste, can stay infectious for up to 30 days. The migration or feeding behavior of dabbling ducks could at least partly explain the spread of the H5N1bird flu, the researchers add.
This group of duck species includes mallards, pintails, and others that feed at or near the surface, where viruses in water are most likely to be picked up. Perhaps as a result, dabbling ducks have the highest known rates of bird flu infection, the study says. For instance, nearly 13 percent of mallards tested positive for bird flu. Other species tested include the American black duck （18.1 percent）, and northern pintail （11.2 percent）.
However, it seems that bird flu viruses existing in ducks doesn’t usually lead to severe illness and death. “Dabbling ducks are for sure the most important hosts for such viruses,” said study co-author Ron Fouchier, a scientist at the Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam, Netherlands. “But the big question is, how can we make sure that those low-risk viruses won’t become very dangerous ones in the future ”
In poultry bird flu viruses can change into more dangerous strains（型）, including H5N1. If this virus then finds its way back into wild populations, the birds could then spread the disease through migration （迁徙）.
Some scientists have argued that wild birds infected with H5N1 would be too ill to migrate. Swans, for instance, appear to be particularly vulnerable to H5N1. “Swans apparently drop dead quite easily, but they are unlikely to be the vector because they are not going to fly very far if they are dead,” Fouchier said.
But the study team says that some birds that have been purposely infected in the research show that wild birds can survive H5N1. “For some reason H5N1 has adapted so it no longer kills dabbling ducks,” Fouchier said. This means the ducks may be able to spread the virus over a wide area.
The study team says geese may also be vectors, because they often feed in huge groups, a practice that could encourage the spread of the virus.
Wild ducks, the researchers add, “could provide an intercontinental bridge” for bird flu to North America, which has not yet had any known cases of H5N1.
26. According to the experts, ________.
A. it’s important and necessary to kill wild ducks
B. there are already cases in which humans are infected
C. there’s not enough evidence to support killing wild birds
D. bird flu viru ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ses in the lake water can be easily picked up by poultry
27. Swans are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )used as an example in the passage to show that ________.
A. they should be protected from bird flu
B. H5N1 is very dangerous to some wild birds
C. swans are as dangerous as ducks in spreading bird flu
D. infected wild birds may not be able to spread H5N1 too much
28. One of the r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )easons why dabbling ducks may be able to spread H5N1 widely is that ________.
A. they often feed in the water
B. viruses will not change among them
C. H5N1 is no longer deadly to them
D. viruses are passed through bird waste
29. What’s the pos ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sible meaning of the underlined word “vulnerable ” in Paragraph 8
A. Easily attacked or hurt. B. Severe and serious.
C. Powerful but sensitive. D. Dangerous and frightening.
30. It can be inferred from the above passage that ________.
A. bird flu virus ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es can only survive a very short time once they leave the birds
B. there is a ri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sk that birds in North America will be infected with H5N1
C. geese play the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) most important role in spreading H5N1 among poultry

Nowadays ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )people care little about their health and refuse to go to the doctor’s for a check regularly.

And they don’t have another choice but to ask for help from doctors.
The result ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of this is that some people may discover they have a very dangerous disease which is hard to cure.

Are we humans alone i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n space Scientists have been working on this question for a long time. And recently, new discoveries offer more hope that some form of life existed on Mars in the past, and perhaps is still there at present.
According to a new r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eport in the book Science, the Mars Explorer Curiosity has found more methane (甲烷) in the Martian air. It might suggest the possibility of life.
During the las ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t 20 months, Curiosity has found methane many times, and four of them, it tested at a level 10 times higher than usual. “It’s a great increase,” said Christopher Webster, the lead scientist.
This new fin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ding has made a big change. In September 2013, Curiosity found almost no sign of methane on Mars. Just weeks later, however, the explorer picked up the gas.
Methane is a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lso found in Earth’s air, and comes from animal and plant life, as well as from the environment itself. If there’s methane in Mars’ air, where is it coming from Scientists aren’t sure.
“There are many possi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ble sources, such as actions between water and rock,” guessed Sushil, a scientist of the Curiosity team.
But the scientists h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ave left the possibility open that microbes (微生物) could be the methane’s source. Also, for the first time, Curiosity found other organisms (有机物) in the rocks of Mars. Organisms are thought to be the basis to form life. Scientists aren’t sure where these organisms come from. They could either have formed on Mars or landed on Mars by meteorites (陨石).
For the next thr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ee years, Curiosity will keep looking for more organisms in rocks and exploring Mars.

Does money make people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) happier Studies show that it does－when people at the poverty level are suddenly paid more. Other studies also show that people who lose the money they are used to having become very unhappy. But the most important thing seems to be that people are happiest when they make more than other people. Perhaps one secret of happiness is just to think about people who don’t have as much money as you. Sadly, however, the opposite is also true. When you compare yourself to friends and neighbors who have higher incomes, this may make you unhappy.
Poor people need e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nough food to feed themselves but what happens when people suddenly become very rich This is the case in China right now where people have become much better off, but can only have one child. The result is an army of “little emperors”: fat, spoiled children. A child measures(衡量) happiness in love, not food, and there’s nothing good about overfeeding a child.
Richard La ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )yard, director of the London School of Economics, says, “The six key factors(因素) now scientifically established to affect(影响) happiness most are: mental health, satisfying and secure(安定的) work, a secure and loving private life, a safe community, freedom, and moral values” It is quite interesting that only one of these has to do with making money. People who realize this think that it is better to be paid in something other than money, for example, time.
Many people are now ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) starting to take time off in different ways. Rather than saving up their vacations for a rushed trip once a year, people are taking a day or so here and there to have smaller, quieter vacations. In some cases, people are going in the other direction and taking vacations of several months or even a year. On these vacations, they don’t generally just lie on a beach. Instead, they might volunteer in another country or learn a new skill like a foreign language.
81. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. newspaper re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ports B. studies by experts C. neighbors and friends D. unhappy people
82. People seem to be happiest when __________.
A. they make more m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oney than others B. they make less money than others
C. they think of ot ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )her rich people D. they compare themselves to friends
83. “to be paid in so ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mething other than money” in the third paragraph means _________.
A. to be given more money than anything else
B. to give up your job but make a lot of money
C. to work longer hours and make more money
D. to be given something more satisfying than money

A. Being rich is only good for rich people.
B. People in China are much better off now.
C. A child measures happiness in love, not food.

“When I reached ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the bus station, I got to know that the bus to your town couldn’t come, so I returned here. I just can't leave you here,” she said, “Get in my car and I will take you back to your home.”
“It is a long way.”I said.
“Come on, sir,”she said, “Let’s go.”
On the way ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) she told me a story. A few days ago, there wasn't gas(汽油）in her car . An old man drove her up to a gas station and then back to her car.
When we got to m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y home, I wanted to give her some money to thank her, but she didn't accept her. “I only want to help others and do something nice for somebody. Pass it along.” She said.
