12．（2020九下·北京开学考）阅读理解
Height is just one of the thousands of
features your genes(基因) decide. In fact, because
you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands
somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall,
then most probably you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how
tall you're going to be, ask your doctor if 'he or she can help you find it
out.
But genes don't decide everything. For
example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full
potential(潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough
exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
No doubt you're wondering how fast you should
grow. It depends. There's no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids
grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when they
start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up).
Your doctor will know how your growth has been
going over the years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not nearly as
important as the height you're at now, how you've been growing up to this
point, and what other changes your body may be going through.
Don't be scared if you seem to have grown a
lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt(高峰) during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls
and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later—between 7 and 13 for
girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You'll usually begin to notice that you're
growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first
changes of puberty.
（1）If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow, ______.
A．you should have enough exercise
B．you can ask doctors for help
C．you should save the environment
D．You can record your growth during puberty
（2）After reading this passage, we can explain______.
A．how good it is to be a doctor B．how much sleep time we need
C．why genes can't decide everything D．what healthy diet is
（3）Which is NOT mentioned in the passage
A．Your height most probably depends on how high your parents are.
B．Girls age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys'.
C．The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed.
D．You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast.
【答案】（1）B
（2）C
（3）C
【知识点】科普类；议论文
【解析】【分析】文章大意：这篇短文主要讲述了人的身高问题，通过短文我们可以知道，你的身高大部分依赖于你父母的身高，女孩的青春期一般比男孩子早，你可能有时对于自己长得过快感到惊讶。
（1）细节理解题。根据But if you have questions about how tall you're going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find them out.描述可知如果你想知道自己能长多高，可以去请教医生。故选B。
（2）细节理解题。阅读短文But genes don' t decide everything可知，这篇短文告诉我们身高与基因相关，但并不是决定因素，读了这篇文章我们知道了为什么基因不能决定一切，故选C。
（3）细节理解题。阅读短文可知，这篇短文Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes decide主要讲述了你的身高大部分依赖于你父母的身高，The age for starting puberty is about 10for girls and about 11for boys. But it can be earlier or later, between 7and 13for girlsand9and15 5for boys.女孩的青春期一般比男孩子早，Don' t be nervous if you seem to have grown a lot in very short time你可以有时对于自己长得过快感到惊讶。没有提到The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed.第一次生长发育的改变的时间，故选C。
【点评】做这类题材阅读理解时要求学生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据。
13．（2020九下·北京开学考）阅读理解
A study showed that the experiences children
have in their first few years are important. These experiences affect the
development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have
higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things,
which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a
hundred trillion (万亿) connections in the brain
of a three-year-old child.
Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good
newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers
produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns.
For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern "A-B-B".
Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern "A-B-C". The images
showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during
the "A-B-B" pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference
between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in
the order.
Gervain is excited by these findings because
the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. "Position is key to language,"
she says. "If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big
difference: 'John caught the bear.' is very different from 'The bear caught
John.'"
Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl
have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet,
or smartphones - no matter how educational - doesn't appear to be enough for
children's brain development. They carried out a study of nine- month-old
American babies. They expected the first group who'd watched videos in Chinese
to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face
with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the
second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as
native listeners. But the other babies - regardless of whether they had watched
the video or listened to the audio - learned nothing.
（1）What makes connections in a baby's brain
A．Having a higher IQ. B．The connection with other babies.
C．The baby's early age. D．Experiencing new information.
（2）What did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment
A．Babies can well understand different words.
B．Word order is relevant to meaning.
C．Babies identify different sound patterns.
D．A certain brain region processes language.
（3）What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3
A．Grammar is important in learning languages.
B．Words have different sounds.
C．Different languages have different grammar.
D．Different orders have different meanings.
（4）What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl
A．Social communication improves babies brain' development.
B．Listening to different languages develops babies' brain.
C．Foreign languages help babies' brain develop.
D．Babies shouldn't watch a lot of television.
【答案】（1）D
（2）C
（3）D
（4）A
【知识点】科普类；议论文
【解析】【分析】文章大意：主要科普了婴儿的大脑发育与前几年接受的信息有关。
（1）细节理解题。根据第一段Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain.接受新信息使得大脑的不同部分之间连接，故选D。
（2）词义推断题，根据第一段This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns.这表明婴儿能够分辨不同的模式，故选C。
（3）理解推断题，根据前面the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar可知不同的顺序有不同的意义，故选D。
（4）理解推断题，根据最后一段They expected the first group who'd watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies-regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio-learned- nothing.可知面对面社会交际提高婴儿的大脑发育。故选A。

14．（2020九下·北京开学考）阅读理解
Garbage sorting has become a hot issue around
China, especially after Shanghai began carrying out a regulation on July 1.
Beijing, as a forerunner in environmental
protection, has thus been expected to follow suit. The capital of the country
has long been campaigning for sorting and recycling household waste, as part of
its environmental drive for sustainable growth, local media reported.
The current regulation gives garbage sorting
responsibilities to government departments, property management groups and
other organizations. It also gives rules for companies, outlining how they're
responsible for waste collection, transportation and treatment. Only
individuals are not subject to responsibilities.
The long— awaited revision will soon change
the situation, "Taking out the trash without sorting it properly will be
illegal," said Sun Xinjun, director of the Beijing Commission of Urban Management.
In Shanghai, violators are now fined up to 200 yuan ($30) for trash-sorting
violations. The maximum fine in Beijing will not be less than that, he said.
The Beijing city government first set out to
promote garbage sorting in 2009. Authorities have since called on citizens to
sort their household waste into four types——recyclable waste, kitchen trash,
dangerous waste and others—and leave it in a corresponding dustbin or trash
can. Blue-colored dustbins signify items within are recyclable, green
represents kitchen trash, red corresponds to dangerous materials and grey to
other waste.
To promote the awareness of garbage sorting and
expand the base of participants, authorities have employed workers to help
residents on the spot. With intelligent devices, those who throw in recyclable
waste at given sites will be rewarded with bonus points, which can be used to
buy daily goods. At some communities, there are no color—coded dustbins.
Instead, a scheduled garbage collection service is offered to help improve the
environment. In other communities, workers offer a door-to-door service to collect
recyclables or kitchen waste.
Beijing Environmental Sanitation Engineering
Group has been promoting new garbage sorting facilities such as recycling
cabinets and smart kitchen waste trash cans since 2016, Xinhua News Agency
reported. Nearly 26,000 metric tons of household waste is generated across
Beijing on a daily basis and 29 terminal garbage disposal facilities are
working at full capacity. Nearly 9.3 million tons of household waste was
processed in the city last year.
（1）According to the passage, which dustbins should some used coke cans be thrown into
A．Grey-colored dustbins. B．Blue-colored dustbins.
C．Green-colored dustbins. D．Red-colored dustbins.
（2）We can learn from the passage that_______.
A．Beijing carried out a more severe rule on garbage sorting than Shanghai
B．the amount of household waste in Beijing is far from something disturbing
C．the change of the current regulation has annoyed citizens
D．new technology has been applied to help deal with garbage
（3）What is the best tile for the text
A．How to Sort Garbage in China B．Garbage Collection in Beijing
C．The Current Regulation in Beijing D．Waste Recycling Project Counts
【答案】（1）B
（2）D
（3）B
【知识点】社会现象类；议论文；细节理解；推理判断
【解析】【分析】文章大意：主要介绍了垃圾分类已经成为中国各地的一个热点问题，尤其是在上海7月1日开始实施一项规定之后。

important as the height you're at now, how you've been growing up to this

A study showed that the experiences children
have in their first few years are important. These experiences affect the
development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have
higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things,
which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a
hundred trillion (万亿) connections in the brain
of a three-year-old child.
Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good
newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers
produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns.
For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern "A-B-B".
Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern "A-B-C". The images
showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during
the "A-B-B" pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference
between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in
the order.
Gervain is excited by these findings because
the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. "Position is key to language,"
she says. "If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big
difference: 'John caught the bear.' is very different from 'The bear caught
John.'"
Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl
have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet,
or smartphones - no matter how educational - doesn't appear to be enough for
children's brain development. They carried out a study of nine- month-old
American babies. They expected the first group who'd watched videos in Chinese
to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face
with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the
second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as
native listeners. But the other babies - regardless of whether they had watched
the video or listened to the audio - learned nothing.
（1）What makes connections in a baby's brain
A．Having a higher IQ. B．The connection with other babies.
C．The baby's early age. D．Experiencing new information.
（2）What did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment
A．Babies can well understand different words.
B．Word order is relevant to meaning.
C．Babies identify different sound patterns.
D．A certain brain region processes language.
（3）What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3
A．Grammar is important in learning languages.
B．Words have different sounds.
C．Different languages have different grammar.
D．Different orders have different meanings.
（4）What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl
A．Social communication improves babies brain' development.
B．Listening to different languages develops babies' brain.
C．Foreign languages help babies' brain develop.
D．Babies shouldn't watch a lot of television.

Garbage sorting has become a hot issue around
China, especially after Shanghai began carrying out a regulation on July 1.
Beijing, as a forerunner in environmental
protection, has thus been expected to follow suit. The capital of the country
has long been campaigning for sorting and recycling household waste, as part of
its environmental drive for sustainable growth, local media reported.
The current regulation gives garbage sorting
responsibilities to government departments, property management groups and
other organizations. It also gives rules for companies, outlining how they're
responsible for waste collection, transportation and treatment. Only
individuals are not subject to responsibilities.
The long— awaited revision will soon change
the situation, "Taking out the trash without sorting it properly will be
illegal," said Sun Xinjun, director of the Beijing Commission of Urban Management.
In Shanghai, violators are now fined up to 200 yuan ($30) for trash-sorting
violations. The maximum fine in Beijing will not be less than that, he said.
The Beijing city government first set out to
promote garbage sorting in 2009. Authorities have since called on citizens to
sort their household waste into four types——recyclable waste, kitchen trash,
dangerous waste and others—and leave it in a corresponding dustbin or trash
can. Blue-colored dustbins signify items within are recyclable, green
represents kitchen trash, red corresponds to dangerous materials and grey to
other waste.
To promote the awareness of garbage sorting and
expand the base of participants, authorities have employed workers to help
residents on the spot. With intelligent devices, those who throw in recyclable
waste at given sites will be rewarded with bonus points, which can be used to
buy daily goods. At some communities, there are no color—coded dustbins.
Instead, a scheduled garbage collection service is offered to help improve the
environment. In other communities, workers offer a door-to-door service to collect
recyclables or kitchen waste.
Beijing Environmental Sanitation Engineering
Group has been promoting new garbage sorting facilities such as recycling
cabinets and smart kitchen waste trash cans since 2016, Xinhua News Agency
reported. Nearly 26,000 metric tons of household waste is generated across
Beijing on a daily basis and 29 terminal garbage disposal facilities are
working at full capacity. Nearly 9.3 million tons of household waste was
processed in the city last year.
（1）According to the passage, which dustbins should some used coke cans be thrown into
A．Grey-colored dustbins. B．Blue-colored dustbins.
C．Green-colored dustbins. D．Red-colored dustbins.
（2）We can learn from the passage that_______.
A．Beijing carried out a more severe rule on garbage sorting than Shanghai
B．the amount of household waste in Beijing is far from something disturbing
C．the change of the current regulation has annoyed citizens
D．new technology has been applied to help deal with garbage
（3）What is the best tile for the text
A．How to Sort Garbage in China B．Garbage Collection in Beijing
C．The Current Regulation in Beijing D．Waste Recycling Project Counts
