Passage B
Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country road in their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you. When you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you can't always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
(　　)1、Those who have big houses may often feel ______.
A．happy B. lonely

Passage C
（2019中考科普环保类选练）
Think of all the things you throw away：juice bottles，soda cans，candy covers．It? adds up．How much rubbish do you produce?

Passage D

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.

Passage F
There was a kingdom long，long ago. It was ruled by a king who loved riddles. Once a year the king made a new riddle. He gave a prize to the person who could solve the riddle.
There was a baker who also lived in this kingdom. Everyone agreed that he baked the finest breads. The baker had almost everything he needed except for a horse. If the baker had a horse，he could sell his fine breads from one end of the kingdom to the other.
One year the king made a new riddle that puzzled everyone. “I will give a prize to the person who can solve my riddle，” the king said. “Whoever wins will have the pick of one of my strongest horses.” He then drew a line down the middle of the courtyard. “Make this line shorter without erasing(清除) any part of it，” the king challenged.
People came from far and wide. They looked at the line and squinted at it. They even put their noses to the ground and scratched their heads.
“How can you make a line shorter without erasing any part of it？” the people in the crowd asked each other. Some of them tried. The dressmaker kicked dirt(泥土) over the line to hide it. The farmer poured water over the line to make it disappear. None of these efforts worked，and the people went home disappointed. Everyone was puzzled about how to solve this new riddle.
A week passed，and nobody had any new ideas. Then one day the baker came into the courtyard with a bag of flour(面粉)．
“Your Majesty，” the baker said to the king，“I can make your line shorter without erasing any part of it.” Then the baker opened his bag of flour. He poured out a line of flour right next to the king's line. The line the baker made was longer than the king's line.
“Now，good king，” the baker smiled，“your line is shorter.”
The people were amazed. The king laughed and clapped his hands.“You have won the prize. I will give you a horse of your choice.”
The baker was excited. Now he could sell his breads from one end of the kingdom to the other.

Passage H
（2019中考选练题）
The first time I ever really noticed a disabled person， I was studying in the third grade. I saw some disabled people before， but I never really knew or cared about what those persons go through.
When a new student arrived in my third grade class， I thought it would just be a common student， but this student was different. His name was Derek and he had autism . He sometimes had random outbursts(随意发作) during class and we would stand there， doing nothing because we didn't know why he was doing that. When he sat down at desk， we would try to get away from him. After class， we would play jokes on each other， imitating(模仿) Derek， and laughing about it.
Then one day，Derek's mom came to our class and talked with us. She told us that Derek wasn't just having random outbursts--he was trying to communicate. Then she chose a volunteer and filled that person's mouth with soft sweets. When we found the volunteer had great trouble in trying to speak， the mother explained that was what Derek was going through every day. We all understood her meaning.
After this talk，no one tried to make fun of Derek or run away from him. We accepted his outbursts in class and he became one of our friends. Having a class with Derek has taught me to have an open mind to those who are different from us. My experience in having an autistic classmate has provided me with a good lesson.
Now whenever I meet a family with a child who's behaving differently，I always remember what I have learned in my third grade clams and go up to him or her.
