Passage A
（2019中考科普环保类选练）
Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives. For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite. Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving .Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls.
? Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to US through satellites. Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location.
? We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another. They are usually 35，880 kilometers above the equator. Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place. This is because it is moving around the world at 11，000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates. A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae facing the earth. Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit，So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position .This usually happens about every five or six days.
? Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth. A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years. Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired. Often，very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time. This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other.

Do you know that a fast reader can get the ideas better than a slow reader can? Of course, you save time by reading fast, but this is not the main reason for fast reading. The main reason is that you understand better what you are reading when you read fast.
As your eyes move along the line of point, they make fixations (固定) or pauses (暂停). It is important that you see several words at a fixation. It is also important that your eyes leave a group. The numbers of letters or words that you see at a fixation are called your eye span (视跨). Pay more attention to improving your rate of reading. With practice you can learn to read faster than you usually read.
The way in which you read always depends on (取决于) what you are reading and for what purpose. You should know the different ways of reading so that you can apply whatever method is necessary. Here are four ways of reading:
(1) Skimming is an important kind of reading. This method can be used when you wish to review something that you have forgotten. You can skim to get the main points.
(2) Rapid (快速) first reading and then rereading certain parts carefully is important. You may use this type of reading to study a science lesson or a history lesson.
(3) You need to do careful reading and rereading sometimes. This type of reading is necessary for making an intensive (细致的) study of your school subjects, solving maths problems or reading directions.
(4) Rapid reading is used when reading stories for enjoyment. You may also do rapid reading when reviewing materials that you already know well.
42. The main reason for reading fast is that you can ________.

Passage D
意外的惊喜
On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her change purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small generous act(举动) would change their lives.
Sarah didn't realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the next morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, but also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had.
Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page(网页) to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85，000 and there seems to be no end yet.
That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets. And that's not all—Thanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris who he had been unable to find for 27 years.
All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing—returning something that did not belong to him.

Passage E
Fast-food workers in 58 cities in the USA did not go to work on Thursday. They went on strike because they want more money. The workers these years get paid the lowest wage (工资). This was set at $7.25 in 2009 and has not changed since then. Many workers say they cannot afford to live on that. The price of everything has gone up but their wages have stayed the same for five years. The workers want $15 an hour, which is double their wage. Julio Wilson, a cashier at a pizza restaurant, told the BBC he earns $9 an hour. He said that wasn’t enough to support himself and his five-year-old daughter. He said: “I know I may lose my job by doing so, but it’s my right to fight for what I deserve (应得的).”
?? McDonald's and Burger King both spoke about the strike. They said they did not make decisions about how much to pay workers in most of their restaurants. They said each restaurant is independent and the manager decides how much to pay the workers. McDonald’s?profits?were over $5.5 billion in 2011. The burger giants (巨人) did say that an increase in wages would mean more expensive hamburgers. America’s National Restaurant Association (协会) said the wages were low because the staff are young and have little work experience. It said: “Only five per cent of restaurant employees earn the lowest wage and they are mainly working part-time and half are teenagers.”
(?? ) 1. Workers strike because __________.
?????? A. They didn’t like fast food.???? B. They wanted more money.
?????? C. They got new jobs.????????? D. They wanted more food.

What’s the meaning of “dark horse”? It’s someone who wins when no one expects it. Han Xiao’peng took China’s first gold on snow. He became an Olympic “dark horse” last Thursday by winning the gold medal in men’s freestyle aerial skiing(自由式滑雪空中技巧) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before, let alone(更不用说) in the Olympics!
“I never thought this would happen,” said the 23-year-old. “I feel like I’m in a dream.” It’s China’s second gold medal at the Turin Olympics. But more important, Han’s gold was the country’s first ever in a snow sport. In 2002, China’s Yang Yang won the gold for speed skating at the winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, US. Just because Han’s win was unexpected doesn’t mean that he didn’t work hard.
Han grew up in Jiangsu Province. Before he started his training on snow, he used to be an acrobat(杂技演员) at a circus. In 1995, a coach found his talent(才能). The coach, Yang Er’qi, said Han had the agility(灵活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. When Yang first took the 12-year-old to northern China, the boy couldn’t swim, skate or ski. But he wasn’t afraid of the high platform(跳台) and kept on training.
Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake Games. In that Olympics he only got 24th. “I was hopeless at that time, but my family and the coach stood firmly(坚强地) behind me, helping me through,” he recalled.
??? Han Xiaopeng worked so hard that he won the gold medal in the Olympics at last. Because of his success, more and more people in China are becoming interested in skiing. We are proud of him and we hope he will have another big success in the next winter Olympics.
1. What does ‘dark horse’ mean? It means _____________.
?? A. a horse which is dark???????????????? ????????????? B. someone who is expected to win

The earthquake was the most powerful one to hit Japan in the country’s history. But Japan’s reaction( 反应 ) to the accident has shown that it is the most earthquake-prepared country in the world. The calm the Japanese showed during and after the quake has impressed the world.
This is because Japan has “an earthquake culture”. Japanese people are taught how to prepare for and react to earthquakes from a young age.
Schools in Japan organize earthquake practices every month. They make students become familiar with being in an earthquake.
Japan also has a good earthquake warning system(警报系统 ). Warning were broadcast on television, radio and mobile phones nine seconds after experts( 专家 ) first knew about the quake on March 11.
The warning system is unable to predict earthquakes. But it can usually alert people about 15 seconds before they feel the effects. Even 15 or 20 seconds can be enough time to save people’s lives.
53.How did Japanese people react when the big earthquake hit Japan on March 11?

Do animals have a culture? What do we mean by “culture?” Lately social scientists have begun to ask if culture is found just in humans, or if some animals have culture too. When we speak of culture, we mean a way of life a group of people have in common. Culture includes the beliefs and attitudes we learn. It is the patterns( 样式 ) of behavior that help people to live together. It is also the patterns of behavior that make one group of people different from another group.
Our culture lets us make up for having lost our strength, claws, long teeth, and other defenses. Instead we use tools, cooperate with one another, and communicate ( 交流 ) with language. But these aspects of human behavior, or “culture,” can also be found in the lives of certain animals. Animals can make tools, for example. We used to think that the ability to use tools was the dividing line between human beings and other animals. Lately, however, we have found that this is not the case. Chimpanzees( 黑猩猩 ) can not only use tools but actually make tools themselves. Animals can also share knowledge with each other and use their own language to know that the line dividing(区分 ) us from animals is not as clear as we used to think.
57.When we talk about “culture”, we mean________.
A. book language of behavior we learn B. the patterns of behavior we learn
C. traditional ideas D. people’s habits
58.We thought ____________ was the biggest difference between human beings and other animals.
A. cooperating with one another B. communicating with language
C. using tools D. losing long teeth
59.It’s ___________ that animals have a culture too.
A. sure B. unbelievable C. possible D. important
60. The main idea of the passage is ___________.
A. chimpanzees can learn to use sign language to make sentences
B. other animals can invent tools.
C. knowledge and communication are no longer signs
D. the line dividing human culture from animal culture is not as clear as we might think

Alan, a boy from India went to study in the UK two years ago. He found a part?time job in a restaurant. Many British students also worked there. Their job was washing the dishes. It was an easy job, but the boss said, “You must wash every dish seven times.” At first, Alan was careful. The boss was happy with him. After one month, he found that the boss didn't check very often. He thought there was no difference between five times and seven times. So he just washed five times. He worked very fast. The boss was even happier. One day, a British student asked him why he could wash so fast. Alan told him the secret. The British student was surprised but didn't say anything. A few days later he told the boss about it. The boss fired(解雇) Alan.

（2019中考教育类选练）
Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended.
"That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty (诚实) is," said the school's headmaster. The school says no cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas.
"I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11.
"Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed,” said Hua Sha.
"I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed," Liu Qingxi said.
"I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.
Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.
(?? ) 1. The passage mainly (主要地) talks about ______________.
A. how to pass an exam??????????? B. how to make students honest
C. whether there is cheating in exams?? D. whether invigilators are needed in exams

For several years, Americans have enjoyed tele-shopping—watching TV and buying things by phone. Now tele-shopping is starting in Europe(欧洲). In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things.
Tele-shopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example. The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made ＄100 million. In France there are two tele-shopping channels, and the French spend about ＄20 million a year to buy things through those channels.
In Germany, until last year tele-shopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then the government allowed (允许) more tele-shopping. Other channels can open for tele-business, including(包括) the largest American tele-shopping company and a 24－hour tele-shopping company. German businesses are hoping this new tele-shopping will help them sell more things.
Some people like tele-shopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason. But at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They call tele-shopping “junk (垃圾)on the air”. Many Europeans usually worry about the quality (质量) of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.
The need for high quality means that European tele-shopping companies will have to be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.
1. Tele-shopping is _____in Europe.
A. not popular B. growing C. not possible D. cheap
2. People like tele-shopping because it is _____.
A. American B. cheaper C. easier D. more popular
3. Some Europeans don’t like tele-shopping because they _____ .
A. don’t like to buy things
B. don’t watch TV
C. believe the things sold on TV are expensive
D. think the things sold on TV are bad quality
4. In Germany, tele-shopping may _____ .
A. help businessmen get more money B. keep the shops open longer
C. have fewer buyers D. bring better TV programs
5. The best title of this passage is _____ .
A. American Tele-shopping B. Tele-shopping Companies
C. Tele-shopping in Europe D. Tele-shopping — Junk on the Air

美丽的标记
My six?year?old granddaughter, Mary, found a small freckle(斑点) on her left arm. She didn't like it and tried to pick it off.
I told her, “Oh dear, that's a beauty mark. Don't pick it off.” She took another look at it. “It's not beautiful. I want to pick it off，” she cried.
“Each of us is born with special marks. Some of them can be seen, but some of them are invisible(看不见的)．”
“What kind of mark is invisible？” she asked.
“Well...a mark of kindness, even the mark of a loving heart. We can't see them, but they are very special marks.”
“Why can't mine all be invisible？” she asked.
“I can see many of your special marks, such as the color of your eyes, the shape of your nose and the smile on your face. Nobody else in the whole world has the same things as you. Special marks, inside and outside, are the things that make each of us different and special.”
She didn't understand all of my words, but she stopped crying. The next morning, Mary ran into the kitchen. She said to my husband, “I have a beauty mark. Do you want to see it？”
“I sure do，” my husband laughed.
“I didn't like it yesterday, but now I do.” she said.

Britain says it will send ten war ships to Gibraltar on Monday. The ships will make a stop there on their way to the Middle East.

Spain then said it might start charging 50 euros (about $67) for people to travel across the border between Gibraltar and Spain.

【****北京市门头沟区】C
When someone wants to have a new life, he/she is more willing to make some changes in his/her life and in his/her outlook(人生观). Actually slight(微小的) changes can make one’s life different.
Those slight changes are more easily to put into action. To change the small parts rather than carry out a big plan for a series of big stuff can make people more likely to focus on(集中) it. Take changing the hair style for example. It is a pretty easy task to finish. When I feel happy, I am more willing to change the sheets, clean out some clutter(杂物) to make my house look better and so on. After doing that, I can feel more control over my life.
The small changes we achieve can also give us more confidence to achieve the big goals. The good results we get from the small changes can bring us a taste of successful completion. Once a behavior has been developed into a habit, we are more likely to do it unconsciously(无意识地). So start with small goals, for example to read five to ten pages of the book you think boring but really useful for you every day rather than force yourself to finish it in one day. That’s a wiser way to achieve the big goal.
On the other hand, by making small changes, we may ask ourselves, “How can I apply(应用) this process to the bigger thing that I want?” and then keep on going, especially when we find those changes can make us feel the power to make positive(积极的) changes.
Start with a small decision. Who knows where we will go far in the end?
54. Why does the author advise us to make slight changes first if we want to lead a new life?
A. Because slight changes are more important.
B. Because slight changes are easy to carry out.
C. Because slight changes don’t need planning.
D. Because slight changes are only half a success.
55. The author takes reading a book for example to show readers __________.
A. reading is an important task B. how to become wiser by reading
C. how a hard task can become easy D. reading is very interesting and useful
56. The author mainly tells us to __________ if we want some changes in our life.
A. start with small changes B. read more books every day
C. make a difference in the future D. make great progress at a time
参考答案 C 54. B 55. C 56. A.
第三篇
【****北京市门头沟区】D
”Most experiences of absent-mindedness, forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just went into a room, are caused by a simple lack(缺乏) of attention,” says Schacter, a scientist from New York University. “You’re supposed to remember something, but you haven’t encoded(编码) it deeply.”
Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impression(印象) on recalling(回想起) it later. Failure to encode properly can create troublesome situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don’t pay attention to what you did because you’re involved(参加) in a conversation, you’ll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your cupboard. “Your memory itself isn’t failing you,” says Schacter, “Rather, you didn’t give your memory system the information it needed.”
Lack of interest is another reason which can lead to absent-mindedness. “A man who can recite(列举) sports statistics from 30 years ago,” says Zelinski, another scientist from New York University, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.” Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory depends on just that.
”Visual cues(视觉提示) can help prevent absent-mindedness,” says Schacter. “But be sure the cue is clear and available(有用的).” If you want to remember to take a medicine with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen table—don’t leave it in the medicine box and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket.
Another common experience of absent-mindedness is: walking into a room and wondering why you’re there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. “Everyone does this from time to time,” says Zelinski. “The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and you’ll likely remember.”
57. The writer of the passage thinks that encoding properly is very important because ________.
A. it helps us to get back to where we were
B. it slows down the process of losing our memory
C. it helps us understand our memory system better
D. it makes us able to recall something from our memory
58. One possible reason why women have a little better memories than men is that __________.
A. they rely more on the environment
B. they have a wider range of interests
C. they have an unusual power of focusing their attention
D. they are more interested in what is happening around them
59. The passage is mainly about __________.
A. the memory system of persons
B. a way of encoding and recalling
C. the causes of absent-mindedness
D. the impression of the environment on memory
参考答案 D 57. D 58. D 59. C

面貌识别技术
The Spring Festival travel rush started on Friday Jan.13, in 2017. It is the biggest thing for Chinese to travel in the Spring Festival. It has become the world's largest human movement every year.
During those days, billions of trips were made by travellers. On Friday, 8.55 million trips were made on railways, 58 million by roads, 0.59 million by waterways and 1.3 million by air across the country, according to the Ministry of Transport. New services were offered during this year's spring rush to improve passengers' travel speed.
A few major train stations, such as Guangzhou and Changsha, used face recognition(面貌识别) technology for the first time. The technology could shorten passengers' travel time. It was convenient for train station staff who checked train tickets and ID cards.
The technology compared passengers' faces with the photos on the ID cards. Passengers at those stations only needed to stand in front of a camera for a few seconds after putting their ID cards into a machine. Many passengers experienced the technology at Guangzhou South Railway Station. They described the technology with “convenient, fast and wonderful”.
根据上述内容，判断下列句子正误，正确的为“T”，错误的为“F”。
1. It is very difficult for Chinese to travel in the Spring Festival.
2. Most trips were made by air across the country during the Spring Festival.
3. The train stations in Guangzhou and Changsha used face recognition(面貌识别) technology for the first time.

? ??Being attacked by killer bees usually only happens in thriller movies or nightmares (噩梦). For a couple in Texas, the nightmare turned into reality (现实) on Wednesday night. Kristen Beauregard, 44, and her boyfriend were in their garden exercising their two ponies (小马). Ms Beauregard told reporters that everything was normal until one of the ponies started kicking and jumping. The animal was very frightened about something. Suddenly she saw a dark cloud in the sky and she realized it was a large group of bees. She said: “It got all dark, like it was night time, there were so many bees.” The bees attacked the couple and their horses.
??? Luckily they had a swimming pool, so the couple jumped in. Ms Beauregard was stung over 200 times by the bees. Her boyfriend counted over 50 stings on his arms, neck and head. The pool probably saved their lives because the bees could not attack them under the water. Kristen explained how terrifying (令人恐惧的) it was. She said: “We were trying to stand up in the water but every time we stuck our heads out for air, they would cover us and start stinging us. We were trying to breathe and they were stinging us on the face and on the nose.” Unluckily, the two ponies could not escape (逃离) from the bees. They got stung thousands of times. One died on the farm, the other passed away at the vet's clinic (兽医门诊) later that evening.

第一篇
（2019中考科普环保类选练）
You can not see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes. Some of the things you see give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are examples that can be seen by their own light. Such things are luminous. Most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. The moon, for example, does not give off any light of its own. It is non-luminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of it reflects in our direction. So moon light is only second hand sunlight.
When you look at a book, it sends to your eyes some of the light which falls on it, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light for the book to reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open.
Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is so short as if there were no time at all. Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380 000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a second.
1. You can see the book because_______.
A. your eyes are close to it ???????? B. it reflects some of the sunlight
C. it has light of its own?????????????? D. your eyesight can get to it
2. The underlined word “luminous” means_______.
A. visible??????? B. all colors?????????? C. giving off light????????? D. sunlight
3. Light traces about _________ kilometers per second.?????????
A.?380 000?? B.?300 000????? C.?400 000?????? D.?190 000
4. Which of the following is true?
A. The moment you open your eyes the light from the book travels to your eyes.
B. Light from the book is much shorter than that from the moon.
C. All the things you can see give off light.
D. Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read.
5. What is the main idea of the passage????????????
A.??You can see and read a book because you open your eyes.
B.???Some objects are luminous, some not.
C.???You can see things because of light.
D.???Light travels very fast so you cannot notice it.

龙抬头
China is a country with many colorful days and festivals. The Dragon Head Raising Day(Longtaitou) is one of them. This special day is on the second day of the second month in the Chinese lunar calendar. It stands for the start of spring and farming.
The dragon is important for Chinese people. We Chinese people call ourselves the “descendants (传人) of the dragon”. Therefore, people celebrate the Dragon Head Raising Day with many customs.
On the day in ancient times, people put ashes in the kitchen. This was to “lead the dragon into the house”. People believed that with the help of the dragon, they could have a good harvest(收成) in autumn.
Also, people eat special foods that day. The foods are usually named after dragons. For example, people eat “dragon whisker(细须)” noodles and dumplings called “dragon teeth”.
Today, many customs have faded away(消退). But one that has remained is the cutting of hair. It is said that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to the uncles of the family—mainly mother's brothers. So many people have their hair cut on the Dragon Head Raising Day.
根据上述内容，判断下列句子正误，正确的为“T”，错误的为“F”。
1. The Longtaitou is on the third day of the second month in the Chinese lunar calendar.
2. We Chinese call ourselves the “descendants of the dragon”.

第一篇
（2019中考选练）
If you want to become a fluent(流利的)English speaker you should take some advice: There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
??? Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meanings of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it_
??? As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.
??? For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children.? Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.
??? If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.
1. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?
??? A. Reading and writing.??? ??????????????? B. Reading and listening.
??? C. Writing and speaking.??? ???????????????????? D. Speaking and listening.
2. The underlined phrase "come across" in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by "_______".
??? A. meet by accident??? ??????????????????????????? B. discover
??? C. find on purpose??? ?????????????????????? D. look for
3. The author seems to agree with the view that_______.
??? A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day
??? B. you needn't practice listening if you keep on reading every day
??? C. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening
??? D. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing
4. The passage is mainly about how to_______.
??? A. choose suitable listening materials
??? B. deal with new words in reading
?? ?C. read as many English books as possible
??? D. become fluent in speaking and writing English

Have you ever thought about making a bicycle that you dream of? Some creative people have invented some special bicycles. Here are three of them.
Bambikes Bambikes are produced in a company in Philippines. They are made of an unusual kind of bamboo and other materials like metal and a local plant. They are very strong. And they are a perfect combination(结合) of the greenest building material and common bicycles. By making bambikes, the company offers jobs to the local people. Besides, it provides money for some students in its community to pay for their study. To continue the production, the company plants more bamboo than it cuts.
The heaviest bicycle A German cycling lover, Frank Dose, has recently made the world's heaviest bicycle with big old wheels and lots of other waste materials. He created it just because of a bet(打赌) he made with his friend. The bicycle weighed 1.08 tons. It broke the world record of its kind in weight. Frank said his bicycle was surprisingly easy to ride although it had a huge size and weighed a lot. He rode it in front of 5，000 people for over 100 meters to prove it.
Twisted(变形的) bicycles Two brothers in France created a bike that looks strange to ride and twists in the middle. Riders can make tight turns(急转弯). The brothers say the bicycle is hard to ride so it can stop people from stealing it. In fact, it isn't as hard to control as you may think. It takes a day or two to get used to the crazy way of riding. It's amazing. So far, there have been 30 of the bicycle, but they are not for sale yet.
根据上述内容，判断下列句子正误，正确的为“T”，错误的为“F”。
1. Frank built the world's heaviest bicycle with the materials that his friend bought for him.
2. Some students in the community can get money from the bambike company to pay for their study.
3. Bambikes are made of a special kind of bamboo and other materials.
4. The two brothers rode their bikes in front of some people to show how to use them.
5. 30 twisted bicycles were made and sold out.
【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了三种特制的自行车。第一种车是由菲律宾一家公司使用竹子和其他一些材料结合而制成，但是它们非常坚固；第二种车是由德国一名骑车爱好者使用大型废旧车轮和其他废料制作而成，是世界上最重的自行车；第三种车是由法国的两兄弟制成，他们把车的中间部分弄弯，让一般人骑不了这种自行车，防止自行车被人偷盗。这些奇妙的自行车，展示了人们非凡的创造性思维和动手能力。
1. F 【解析】细节理解题。题干意为：弗兰克用他朋友给他买的材料制造了世界上最重的自行车。从“The heaviest bicycle”一栏中的第一句“A German cycling lover, Frank Dose, has recently made the world's heaviest bicycle with big old wheels and lots of other waste materials.”可知，一位德国自行车爱好者弗兰克，最近用大的旧车轮和很多废料制造了世界上最重的自行车。故本题描述错误。
2. T 【解析】细节理解题。题干意为：社区中的一些学生可以从竹子自行车公司拿到钱来支付他们的学习费用。从“Bambikes”一栏中的第六句“Besides, it provides money for some students in its community to pay for their study.”可知，此外，它还为社区里的一些学生支付学费。故本题描述正确。
3. T 【解析】细节理解题。题干意为：竹子自行车是用一种特殊竹子和其他材料而成的。从“Bambikes”一栏中的第二句“They are made of an unusual kind of bamboo and other materials like metal and a local plant.”可知，它们是由一种不寻常的竹子和其他材料制成的，比如金属和当地的一种植物。故本题描述正确。
4. F 【解析】推理判断题。题干意为：两兄弟在一些人面前骑他们的自行车来展示怎样使用它们。从“Twisted(变形的) bicycles”一栏中的第三句“The brothers say the bicycle is hard to ride so it can stop people from stealing it.”可知，两兄弟说这辆自行车很难骑，所以可以防止人们偷它。所以他们演示的是这辆自行车很难骑，以便让其他人望而生畏。也可从“The heaviest bicycle”一栏中的最后两句“Frank said his bicycle was surprisingly easy to ride although it had a huge size and weighed a lot.He rode it in front of 5，000 people for over 100 meters to prove it.”可知，弗兰克说他的自行车特别容易骑，虽然它尺寸很大并且非常重，而且他在五千人面前骑了100米向人们证明了这点。因此，在别人面前骑车是弗兰克做的而不是两兄弟做的。故本题描述错误。
5. F 【解析】细节理解题。题干意为：三十辆变形自行车被制造出来卖掉。从“Twisted(变形的) bicycles”一栏中的最后一句“So far, there have been 30 of the bicycle, but they are not for sale yet.”可知，到目前为止，已有三十辆这样的自行车，但是它们不用于销售。故本题描述错误。

????? Reading or writing text messages (文本信息) while you are walking is dangerous. A new study says it is more dangerous than texting while driving. The study is from the University of Buffalo (布法罗) in the USA. Researchers found that there are more injuries per kilometer to texting?pedestrians?than there are to texting motorists (开车人). Their report says walking is not as easy as we think it is. We need to focus on many things at the same time to walk safely in a straight line. The research team said that people forget how to walk properly (恰当地), so dangerous things happen to them. They bump into walls and other people, walk into cars, fall over things in the street, and even fall into holes or down stairs.
????? A University of Buffalo professor said walking is a complex (复杂的) action. He said there are several reasons why texting stops people from walking properly. One reason is that they cannot see the path ahead of them. Another is that they are focused on their fingers on their mobile phone keyboard instead of their feet on the street. A final reason is that their minds are somewhere else and not on thinking about walking from A to B safely. The professor said over 6,000 people visited his hospital last year because they were injured while texting. He said the worst cases are head injuries (受伤). When a pedestrian is thrown into the air after being hit by a car, he/she has nothing to protect the head, and the damage can be serious.
(?? ) 1. Texting while walking is more dangerous than texting ________.
?????????? A. while running????? ?????? B. when you are laughing
?????????? C. while driving?????? ?????? D. when you are studying

In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water (自来水) before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill（续杯）.
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
Serving(一份) in restaurants is often large, too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.
Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.
Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.
28. Which statement is true?
A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know.
B. You may find bread and coffee is free.
C. American people never sit with people they don’t know.
D. American people won’t light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.
29. What do American people always do when servings are too large for them?
A. They take the food home with a “doggie bag” for their dogs.
B. They leave the food on the table and go away.
C. They take the food home with a “doggie bag” and enjoy the food later.
D. They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them.
30. What can you learn about “tips” according to the passage?
A. Customers often add tips to their check.
B. Tips are supposed to be left on the table when customers leave.
C. People don’t need to pay tips .
D. The price of the meal usually includes the tip.

【****四川省】
Driving a car at a high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You need only to follow the bright traffic signs beside the highways and it will take you to where you wish. But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver has to have not only skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the smaller road to the most popular bar around. He has to be at service of all kinds of passengers at all times.
A certain London taxi driver told of his job as follows.
During the night it is quite usual for him to stop two or three times for some refreshments (提神). He said, “I never drink when I’m working --- I would lose my license.”
He usually goes home between 2 and 3 o’clock in the night. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, “That’s the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don’t make any money, no one is going to give it to you.”
London taxi drivers not only “take” but also “give”. Every summer hundreds of children from London will go for a day at the sea --- by taxi! Their rides are paid by the taxi drivers, and these all go to the “London Taxi for Underprivileged Children”. At the sea, they are met by the mayor (市长), and a lunch party is also held in honor of the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day running around the sea beaches and visiting the markets, the children go home again --- by taxi, and free of charge (支出), of course!
34. From the first paragraph, we can see that________.
A. highways are developing very fast and there are more and more taxis.

? A new report from the American Heart Association says fitness (健康; 身材适中) levels in children are lower today than they were 30 years ago. The researchers (研究员) looked at the result from the past 46 years. The surveys were on more than 25 million children in 28 countries. The research team found that on average, today’s children run one kilometre about one minute slower than their parents did thirty years ago. The results were almost the same for boys and girls. The distance (距离) a child can run is becoming a bit shorter by about 0.5% every year. One of the biggest reasons for the slowdown in children's running ability is obesity. Kids are overweight because they are eating too much and not exercising enough.
????? The researchers say their report is worrying. If children are becoming fatter and less fit, they will be unhealthier in the future. The researcher Dr Grant Tomkinson said: “If a young person is unfit now, then they are more likely to get illness, like heart disease later in life.” Dr Tomkinson said: “We need to help to make children and young people to develop fitness habits that will keep them healthy now and into the future. They need to choose a few physical activities they like or think they might like to try, and they need to get moving.” He added: “Young people can be fit in different ways. They can be strong like a weightlifter (举重的人), or flexible (灵活) like a gymnast (体操运动员), or skillful like a tennis player.”

平凡女孩的哈佛之路
Not only kids of Tiger Moms go to Harvard.
Dawn Loggins of Lawndale, N．C., is on her way to Harvard, one of the eight world?famous universities in the eastern US. Nobody encouraged her to study or paid for her special classes. This girl created her own future.
The teen was abandoned by her family last summer, when her parents and two sisters moved to Tennessee. She found herself homeless and had to spend the night on friends' sofas.
The school bus driver learned about Dawn's situation and invited Dawn to move in with her family. Soon, Dawn had a job at Burns High School. She worked from 6 a．m. to 7：40 a．m. before the first school bell rang. She swept floors and picked up trash again in the afternoons, before diving(跳水) into her studies in the evenings.
Dawn's hard work paid off. She finished school with a 3.9 GPA and scored 2，110 on the SAT.

Passage E
A new report says less than ten per cent of Britain's engineers are women. This shows that Britain has the fewest women engineers of all European countries. Vince Cable, the UK Business Secretary (秘书), told reporters that this would be a “very big problem for years to come”. He said one of the biggest areas work that needed more women was in computer science. Many women graduate from university with degrees in computer science, so Mr Cable did not understand why there were so few women computer engineers. He said that many companies had a “psychological barrier (心理障碍)” against women becoming engineers. He said: “Half of all state schools don’t have a single girl doing physics. That’s the problem.”
?? The British government has started a new activity to get more women into engineering. It is called “Tomorrow’s Engineers Week” and started on November the 4th. Mr Cable said at the meeting: “Engineering will play a very important role in the future of UK industry (工业). It is important that we act now to make sure that the students are learning good skills, so that our businesses will grow with them.” A spokesman for Siemens (西门子) UK said Britain needed to “help young people understand how an engineering (training programme) can be a rewarding (报酬丰厚的) career”. The website of the activity said it would “show all the exciting businesses and industries…that rely on (依赖于……) the work of creative engineers.”
