After his death, my mother moved back to Louisville, Kentucky, where 35 had grown up. We lived in a small house with her older sister, Marion, and their mother. This was a time when being a single 36 was still considered unusual. When I was small, there was a children's book called The Happy Family, and it was a real piece of work. Dad worked all day long at the office, Mom cooked in the kitchen, and brother and sister always had friends sleeping over. The image of the family in this book was typical(典型的)of the time. It looked 37 like my family, but luckily that wasn't the way I heard it. The way my Aunt Marion read it to me made the story really 38 . Kind-hearted and open-minded, my aunt was the one who played baseball with me, who took me horseback riding, who took me to the father-son dinners and who gave me lessons on how to drive. Believing that anything 39 was probably good for me, she 40 to get a loan(贷款)so that I could go to Africa to work as a volunteer, which was my most 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 3 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 important experience. As a young girl, Aunt Marion always planned to have a large number of children of her own, but she never got married. This 41 that she was free to spend all her time taking care of me. Many people say we have a lot in common. She always 42 me to do my best. She never 43 to make me believe that I could do anything with my life that I wanted, if I only tried hard enough. For more than sixty years, Aunt Marion didn't and still doesn't think of herself. 44 she is forced to come up to the front, my aunt will stand in the back in family photos, and she doesn't think that her efforts have made much 45 . I honor my aunt, who taught me the things my 46 couldn't. So every June for the past 40 years, in growing thankfulness to my Aunt Marion, I've sent her a Father's Day card. 35.A.I B.she C.he D.we 36.A.man B.family C.parent D.child 37.A.nothing B.anything C.everything D.something 38.A.surprising B.boring C.sad D.funny 39.A.interesting B.pleasant C.impossible D.unusual 40.A.decided B.afforded C.offered D.prepared 41.A.said B.meant C.proved D.showed 42.A.allowed B.expected C.invited D.forced 43.A.hoped B.agreed C.stopped D.failed 44.A.Unless B.Although C.Since D.Before 45.A.difference B.progress C.trouble D.sense 46.A.teachers B.mother C.father D.friends 阅读理解(共 24 分) 五、阅读理解(共 24 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读下面的三篇短文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中, 选择最佳选项。 A Here’s the content(目录)of a book. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 4 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 47.If you're interested in music, you can read “________”.

A.predicting by title B.understanding attitude C.understanding main ideas D.guessing meaning of new words B When you cough or sneeze, you'd better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say, “Excuse me”. This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this. Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth. One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. If not, they will be passing those germs(细菌)along to everything and everyone they touch. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 5 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through. After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students. Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go a long way toward helping students realize how to be polite and thank others. Once they've been told, they're halfway there. When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right. That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the moving stairs. When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter. After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways. I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan. In both places, people made effort to make way for others. On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left. On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter. 51.When you cough or sneeze, you should ________. A.touch everything B.cover your mouth C.point out to the kids D.pass the germs to others 52.If you come to a door and someone is following you, you'd better ________. A.hold the door B.pass through C.close the door D.stand to the side 53.From the passage we can know the writer is a ________. A.doctor B.traveler C.parent D.teacher 54.The passage is mainly about ________. A.the rules of behaviour in public B.the ways of communication C.the acts of kindness among people D.the knowledge of social life C It's 2009.You feel sick, so you go to the doctor. She checks your fever, looks at your throat, and asks what you've been thinking about lately. When you leave, she gives you some medicine, but also a list of thinking skills that you are supposed to practice daily. She says that the way you think is causing some of your illness. Doctors and other scientists who study the human mind and try to explain why people behave in the way that they do, called psychologists. are starting to believe it. You know that your brain is connected to every part of your body through your nervous system(神经 系统). Now scientists have proved that how you think and feel can have an influence on the health of your body. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 6 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Stress(压力,紧张) is caused whenever there is a problem or a change in your life. Of course, everybody has stress more or less; nobody's life is perfect. In fact, stress is necessary. Without stress, wa would never learn anything or grow or change. We would probably be bored to death. But too much stress can hurt you. It can weak-en your body's protection so that you are more likely to catch diseases. It can even make you more likely to have an accident. When you feel stress, your brain sends a message to your body to produce a chemical called adrenaline(肾上腺素). Adrenaline speeds up your breathing and your heartbeat. Today you have a different kind of stress. Problems like endless home-work or troubles with your family are the kind of things you can't fight or run away from, so you don't use up all that adrenaline. It just stays bottled up inside you, and that's what can do something bad to you. What can you do about stress? First, you can try to find ways to change things so you aren't under so much stress. You can set up a plan to finish homework or go to a doctor or a psychologist to try to work things out with your family or your friends. But sometimes you can't change a stressful situation. Sometimes you don't even want to. A big change might be a good change, but it will still be stressful. The link(关联) between your body and brain works in two ways. Your body can help your mind deal with stress. If you are under stress, you need to take especially good care of your body. It's important to get enough sleep and eat nutritious meals. Some people take a vitamin-mineral pill every day. Another thing that you can do is daily exercise. If you go walking or do aerobic dancing or work out at the gym, you give your body a chance to burn up some of that adrenaline. Of course, a person who isn't used to much physical activity should start slowly. Anyone with a continuing physical problem should check with a doctor before starting any exercise programs. 55.A psychologist is a person who may help you with your ________. A.illness and abilities B.thoughts and behaviour C.mind and nervous system D.physical activity and daily exercise 56.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A.You shouldn't go to the gym if you are under stress. B.One can do his homework to burn up adrenaline. C.Diseases and accidents are caused by stress. D.Everyone needs stress to improve himself. 57.From the last sentence of Paragraph 5 we can infer that ________. A.it's difficult to change a stressful situation B.it's not stressful when a good change takes place C.a big change will cause another stressful situation D.a stressful situation can't be changed without any effort 58.What is probably the best title for this passage? A.The Body-Brain Link B.The Causes of Stress C.The Advice on Health D.The Nervous System 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 听力理解(共 8 分) 六、听对话,记录关键信息。对话读两遍(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 7 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 请根据所听到的对话内容和卡片上的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在答题卡的相应 位置上。 Lost and Found Full Name: 59.________ Things Lost: 60.________ Colour: 61.________ Time to come in: 62.________ 语言知识运用(共 10 分) 七、完成句子(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 根据中文意思完成句子。 63.很抱歉今天不能陪你去购物,明天怎么样?

They can 70 most of their time in swimming, camping and traveling with their parents. The most enjoyable place is the seaside. Some children are lucky enough to live near the 71 , but for those who live far from the sea, their parents will take them to the seaside for the holidays. Why do children 72 spending their holidays at seaside? It's because they like the sand, the sun, the 73 wind and the salt water there more than anything else. Of course, there are lots of new things to see, nice things to eat 74 exciting things to do. 九、阅读与表达(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读短文,根据其内容回答问题。 One cool April 22 morning, people started the day as usual. Yet it was not a normal day. What's so special about April 22? The answer is simple. It is Earth Day. People all over the world celebrate this important day. The idea of having a special day to celebrate Earth began in the 1960s. Life was very different then. Few people talked or even thought about the environment. Most people had no idea how dirty our air and water were. On April 22,1970, twenty million(百万) Americans joined 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 8 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 the first Earth Day activities. They showed that people really did want to do something about the environment. Since then laws have been passed to protect the air, water, land, and animals. The vehicles such as cars and buses you ride in must pass tests to make sure they don't cause too much pollution. Thanks to this law, cars today release(排放) about half as many bad chemicals as cars did back in 1970.As a result, the air we breathe is cleaner than it once was. Rivers and lakes are also cleaner today than they were in the 1970s. It's a good thing because they needed a lot of help. The Cuyahoga River in Ohio was so polluted that rubbish and oil on the river even caught fire! Today, the river is cleaner. It no longer burns. It's healthy enough for birds, fish, and other animals. Now the celebration has spread to other countries. More than 175 countries take part each year. In 2007, people in China paid much attention to a big problem. People were throwing away 27 million plastic bags a day! People had “Bye-Bye Throwaway Culture Week.” They wanted everyone to see how polluted it was to throw away so many plastic bags. In 2008, China passed new laws against them. Every April 22, millions get together to clean and protect Earth. They also celebrate how far we have come.Our job is to put this knowledge to work. You can help keep our planet healthy too! 75.Is Earth Day on April 22? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.What caught fire on the Cuyahoga River? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.How many countries take part in the celebration each year now? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.Why did Chinese people have “Bye-Bye Throwaway Culture Week”? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.What are the purposes of celebrating the Earth Day? ___________________________________________________________________________ 书面表达(15 分) 十、文段表达(15 分) 根据中文大意和英文提示词语,写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。所给 英文提示词语供选用。请不要写出你的校名和姓名。 80.某英文报纸就家务劳动(Housework)话题征文,请你投稿。 每个家庭都有许多家务,人人都应该学做一些。谈谈你经常帮父母做哪些家务,有什么 体会,并打算在暑假为家里做什么。 提示词语:every family,lots of housework,learn to do,help,parents,be/feel proud of 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 9 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 2 2009 年北京市海淀区中考英语一模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 听力理解(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片(每段对话读两遍)(共 4 分,每小题 1 分) 1. 2. 3. 4. 二、听对话和短文,选择正确答案。每段对话或短文读两遍(共 14 分,每小题 1 分) 听下面一段对话,回答第 5—6 小题。 5.What does the man want to buy.?

No card came with it. Calls to the flower shop were not 35 at all. After a while I stopped trying to 36 the sender's name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper. However, I never 37 imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest 38 were spent day dreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these imaginings. She'd ask me if there was someone for whom I had shown special 39 Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I'd delivered during the winter.

But my mother, despite her own sadness, would not let me 43 any of those things. She wanted her children not only to be lovable but to feel 44 . In truth, my mother wanted her children to see 45 much like the gardenia —lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery(神秘). My mother died ten days after I was married.

And it's interesting because they are not the same in every country. In England, Mothering Sunday is in March. In America and Germany and other countries, it's one Sunday in May. Father's Day is in the middle of June. How do you celebrate Mother's Day and Father's Day? Let's learn something more about it from the following introduction. In England,we call Mother's Day Mothering Sunday,because it's always on a Sunday. I don't really know the origin of it but I remember that my mother had a cup of tea early in the morning. And then we would go to church. And at the end of the church service,the children would collect a daffodil(水仙花)and take it back and give it to our mother who would normally be sitting in the service in the church. And really that's all we did to celebrate the day. As Ann said. I remember taking cups of tea to my mother. The idea in general is that the washing-up would be done;perhaps some cooking would be done on Mother's Day. We would try to relieve her of all those jobs to make it a special day for her,so that whenever she looked around,there was something to eat, something to drink,or something to read,or something interesting for her to do. Father's Day is always in June,a Sunday in the middle of June. On Father's Day, the idea is to find something fun that the children could do with their father together. I remember going to baseball games.

D.How to understand Mother's Day and Father's Day. B Ever since I was a child, my mouth has caused me trouble. I'm not a bad person; I have a hard time learning when to keep my mouth closed. My mom has told me again and again, “Robert, your constant bad words are hurting me. If you continue to be this rude, you will get into big trouble.” It's been a problem at school several times too when teachers have told me something I didn't want to hear. I used to feel it was my duty to stand up for myself. One day in English class I began working on my homework until I heard a classmate talking behind me. It was Nathaniel, talking to himself as usual. I said ever so nicely, “Nathaniel, would you be quiet?” Nathaniel continued talking to himself. I quickly shouted “Nathaniel, shut up!” For the next five minutes, we threw hurtful words back and forth at each other. “At least I don't have an ugly lazy eye like you!” I shouted. I knew this would upset him deep inside. It would hurt his feelings and shut him up. What I said filled him with anger. He tried to reach over my seat and grab me as he shouted, “That's it ! That's it !” Surprised at his reaction, I sat back in my seat. Never had I seen Nathaniel act like this before. Later on, we were taken to the principal's office. There, Mr. Black, the principal, told us to discuss the matter. It wasn't until then that I finally found that when I hurt someone physically, the wounds eventually heal. But when I hurt them with my words, sometimes the pain(痛苦) never goes away. At the end of the discussion, I said sorry to Nathaniel. When I headed back to my room, I spent some time praying. I began to think about how often what I said hurt others. But I believe that as I keep praying and asking God to help me, he'll tell me when to keep my mouth closed. 51.What's the writer's name?

Our feelings of well-being at any moment are decided to a certain degree by genes. However, of all the factors, wealth and age are the top two. Money can buy a degree of happiness. But once you can afford to feed, clothe and house yourself, each extra dollar makes less and less difference. Researchers find that, on average, wealthier people are happier. But the link between money and happiness is complex(复杂的). In the past half-century, the aver-age income (平均收入) has sharply increased in developed countries, yet happiness levels have remained almost the same. Once your basic needs are met, money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends, neighbors and colleagues. “Dollars buy status(social position), and status makes people feel better,” say some experts, which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways, scientists or actors, for example, may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs. In a research, Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires(欲望), not just for money, but for friends, family, job, health, rose furthest beyond what they already had, tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap(差距). Indeed, the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than income alone. “The gap measures just blow away the measures of only income.” says Michalos. Another factor that has to do with happiness is age. Old age may not be so bad “Given all the problems of aging, how could the elderly be more satisfied?” asks Professor Laura Carstensen. In one survey, Carstensen interviewed 184 people between the ages of 18 and 94, and asked them to fill out an emotion questionnaire. She found that old people reported positive emotions just as often as young people. Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it, or they're more realistic about their time running out. Older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that don't. “People realize not only what they have, but also that what they have cannot last forever,” she says. “A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of 85, for example, may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20.” 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 15 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 55.Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobs ________.

It became popular some twenty years ago and has remained a favorite way of keeping fit for lots of people. One of the main advantages of jogging over many other sports is that it can be done anywhere. People jog in parks, in the country side and even in urban areas. No special equipment is required—no costly hats, or balls, and no expensive sports kit. Good quality running shoes are advisable. Special jogging suits are widely available these days and can be bought quite cheaply but are not necessary. In addition to being able to jog anywhere, you can also jog at any time, in any season! It's not unusual to see joggers exercising in the height of summer or in the depth of winter! The act of jogging doesn't require any special training or skill. You do need to be basically healthy and then, after a few basic warm-up bends and stretches, you are ready to begin. You simply start running, gently, and then build up to a steady speed. Do not over-tire yourself by trying to go too fast. It is best for you to run at a steady and comfortable speed. Jogging is a single sport. You don't need to wait until you have gathered a team or found a partner. You can jog alone. A few words of warning however: lone women joggers should be especially careful when choosing jogging routes, particularly at nighttime. Jogging is excellent for keeping fit. It's good for the lungs, the heart and the circulation. It's easy and it's convenient. Why don't you try it? If you require more information, talk to one of the instructors at the sports centre. We are only too happy to help. Please remember: if you do decide to jog, talk to your doctor first if you have any health worries.

Dad doesn't get home 36 midnight and he gets up every morning at 6:00. In the morning, my dad wakes me up. Then he goes downstairs to make lunch for us. He makes sure we get off to school and is there to give us a 37 if one of us misses the bus. After that, Dad goes to work; he spends eight hours staring at a computer screen. When he returns home, Dad usually 38 has an hour or so before he has to leave for his other jobs. I help by fixing dinner, but sometimes he doesn't even have time to 39 . On the weekends, you would think that Dad would want to 40 , but he's still up at the crack of dawn. What is he doing? He's either working in the yard 41 making repairs to the house. Every once in a long while Dad will stop and rest. He'll 42 to a nice family dinner or lounge in his big comfortable chair to watch football or channel surf. At these times my dad gets the energy he needs to keep up his lifestyle, sacrificing(牺牲) all his 43 for the family. My dad is a real 44 of what you can do for your family if you really love them.

B The oldest stone buildings in the world are the pyramids. They have stood for nearly 5000 years, and it seems likely that they will 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 22 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 continue to stand for thousands of years yet. The most famous of these are the “Step” pyramid and the “Bent” pyramid. Some of the pyramids still look much as they must have done when they were built thousands of years ago. Most of the damage(破坏) has been at the hands of men who were looking for treasure or, more often, for stones to use in modern buildings. The dry climate of Egypt has helped to preserve the pyramids, and their very shape has made them less likely to fall into ruin(废墟). These are good reasons why they can still be seen today, but perhaps the most important is that they were planned to last forever. It is most likely that plans were made for the building of the pyramids because the plans of other large works have fortunately been preserved. But, there are no writings or pictures to show us how the Egyptians planned or built the pyramid themselves. As a result, we are only able to guess at the methods used. However, one thing is certain: there must have been months of careful planning before they could begin to build. The first thing they had to do was to choose a suitable place. You may think this would have been easy with miles and miles of empty desert around, but a pyramid could not be built just anywhere. Certain rules had to be followed, and certain problems had to be overcome. The pyramid had to be on the west side of the Nile, the side on which the sun sets. This was for religious reasons. The pyramid also had to stand well above the level of the river to protect it against the regular floods. The pyramid could not be too far from the Nile, however, as the stones to build it needed to be carried in boats down the river to the nearest point. Water transport was, of course, much easier than land transport. The builders also had to find a rock base which was not likely to crack under the great weight of the pyramid. Finally, the pyramid had to be near the capital, or better still, near the king's palace so that he could visit it easily and personally check the progress being made on the final resting place for his body. 51.Most of the damage to the pyramids has been caused by ________. A.stones B.rivers C.weather D.men 52.What's the meaning of the underlined word preserve? A.Damage. B.Protect. C.Build. D.Cover. 53.What was the first thing people had to do before they could begin to build? A.To follow the rules. B.To draw the pictures. C.To choose the fight place. D.To find the workers. 54.To protect a pyramid from floods they could have built it a long way from the Nile, but ________. A.it bad to be built on the west side of the river Nile where the sun sets B.it was difficult to find a large enough rock base so far from the fiver C.this would have been impossible because of religious reasons D.this would have made it very difficult to transport the materials C “Track!” said my master. Like any good tracker-dog who has received the command(命令) he most loves, I gave a bark of excitement, put my nose down to the ground and sniffed. The ground was rich with smells. Even in the high-class housing area where we were working, the stones held traces 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 23 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 of many sole and confusing scents (smells). As I searched for the scent that would give me a clue to the tail of the guilty man, my tail wagged slowly, thoughtfully, delightedly. Work was like play to me; I enjoyed it. A small group of people gathered behind us. Among these onlookers was the old caretaker of the building next door to ours. He spoke in a scornful voice, “You actually think your dog might catch a thief three days after the event?” My master said nothing, but I'm sure he must have smiled. I did not turn to look. I knew he would not speak unless it was to give me a new command. I needed to concentrate. My task was difficult. I had to pick out one scent among the many that lay about and then tracked it to its source. “You're wasting your time,” said the caretaker. I looked at him without raising my head. He was running his hand over his fat stomach. His rough palm and smooth shirt combined to make a slight noise. It was part of my training to be aware—often it is only a little whisper of a noise that alerts(提醒)you to be drawing of a weapon. But of course the aging caretaker was going to do no such thing. There was no smell of fear or nervousness about him. He was merely being clever and talkative. “I've seen many tracker-dogs in my time,” said the caretaker to the onlookers. I served with the police years ago. We would never have thought of using a tracker-dog to find a car thief. Impossible. Everyone knows that dogs are useless in such matters. In a sense he was right. I'm sure there's no need to tell you that, just as a dog's hearing is much better than a human being's, so his sense of smell tells one thing from another far better than a great detective. If Sherlock Holmes could work out that a man had had an egg for breakfast by seeing the yellow stain on his mouth, a trained dog could tell you whether the hen that laid the egg was healthy or not. I know it sounds funny and I mean it to be. But I'm not exaggerating. A dog can tell you—if you understand a dog’s way of communicating—all this and more without even setting eyes on the man he is investigating. 55.Who do you think the dog was tracking? A.The thief. B.The caretaker. C.The master. D.The onlookers. 56.How did the dog react to the command to track? A.It thought for a while and did what was asked. B.It was happy, even though it wasn't trained for the task. C.It was angry because there were so many smells. D.It was excited because it took pleasure in tracking. 57.In the dog's opinion, its sense of smell ________. A.can give us fewer details about what a human has already discovered B.can achieve more than what a human's only if the smell is not hidden C.is particularly trained to pick out one scent among hundreds D.is better than its sense of hearing when it does tracking 58.According to the passage, the dog is ________.

The most widespread mistake of all is that colds are caused by cold weather. They are not. They are caused by viruses (病毒) passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold weather causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated Arctic regions explorers(探险者) have reported 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 25 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 being free from colds until coming into contact again with the outside world by way of packages and mails dropped from airplanes. During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches, cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds. In the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp, naked and starving, were extremely surprised to find that they seldom had colds. At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in the experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty rooms. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. No tone of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose. If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent (often) in the winter? Despite the most painstaking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on. No one has yet found a cure for colds. There are drugs and pain suppressors such as aspirin, but all they do is to relieve the symptoms(症状). 75.Are the common colds caused by cold? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.When may Arctic explorers catch colds? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.How many kinds of people does the writer mention when explaining his idea? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.Why are the colds more frequent in the winter? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.What is the key point of this passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 十、书面表达(共 15 分) 请你阅读你的加拿大网友 Tommy 的 e-mail,根据 e-mail 的内容,给他写一封回信。 注意:1.字数不少于 60。 2.所给的开头句和结尾不必抄写在答题纸上。 Dear Li Lei, I haven't heard from you for a long time.

Outside the windows the freezing cold of winter ruled. The train was filled with cold, tired passengers. Suddenly a little boy 35 his way through the grown-up's legs and sat down by the 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 30 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 window. He was all alone among the unfriendly grown-ups. What a brave child, I thought. His father 36 to stay by the door behind us. The train began to move slowly into a tunnel (隧道). Then something very 37 happened suddenly. The serious little boy slid(滑) down from the seat and leaned(斜靠) his hand on my knee. For a moment, I thought that he wanted to 38 me and returned to his father, so I helped him to stand up. But instead he leaned forward and held his head 39 to-wards mine. He wanted to say something to me, I thought. I lowered my head to receive the 40 . Wrong again! What I received was a loud kiss on the face. The boy quietly returned to his seat, leaned back and continued looking out of the window. I was so surprised. What just happened? A child kissed an 41 grown-upon the train. How could anybody want to kiss such a man that had so much beard(胡子) ? Nervous and a little surprised, we smiled at the father. 42 he saw our questioning looks as he got ready for his stop, he offered a clue(some information). “He's so happy to be alive,” the father said, “He has been very sick.” Father and son 43 into the crowd moving toward the exit. Then doors closed and the train went on. On my face I could still 44 the child's kiss—a kiss that has started some soul-search (深思) inside me. How many grown-ups go around kissing each other 45 the joy of being alive? How many even give much thought to the special right of 46 ?

A.Plaza Center B.WAL ★ MART C.SUPER SALE D.PRODUCE DEPARTMENT 48.How many hours is it open every day? A.Seven. B.Eight. C.Ten. D.Fourteen. 49.Which is NOT on sale according to the advertisement? A.Oranges. B.Cheese. C.Pizza. D.Apples. 50.What does it mean by “Super Food-Super Prices”? A.Our prices are very high. B.We have a wonderful store. C.We sell good food at good prices. D.Our store is more than just a supermarket. B What are emotions? As far as we know, human beings have always had emotions. Poets write about them, singers sing about them, and lovers and friends talk about them. We know that we can ‘control' emotions, ‘express' emotions and ‘feel' emotions. Is it possible that we can smell emotions? Are we able, like some animals, to smell fear? Sometimes you can see what emotions a person is feeling. When people are happy, they smile; when they are sad, they might cry; when they are angry, their faces might turn red; when they are feeling shy, they might sweat(出汗). These are all physical reactions(反 应), so can we say that emotions are physical reactions to something in our lives? The problem is that emotions don't always include physical reactions that we can see. Some people are good at hiding their emotions, and different people can have different physical reactions to the same emotion. Some people's faces, for example, go white when they are angry and some people's faces turn red. Some people go quiet when they are angry and some people shout. Sometimes there is a physical reaction that we can't see. For example, a person might be nervous and feel sick inside, but other people might not be able to see that. We might be able to see or smell emotions, but we can't touch them. Can we describe them? In one 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 32 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 way we can describe emotions. Everybody has some idea what ‘happy' and ‘sad' mean. But in another way it is difficult to describe emotions. Is the way you ‘love' your pet, your family, your friend, or your husband and wife the same? I always think it is strange in English that we often write ‘love' at the bottom of a Christmas card or a letter to a relative we hardly know or hardly ever see. We might write ‘love' at the bottom of a letter to someone of the opposite sex(性别) who is just a friend, but we wouldn't write ‘love' at the bottom of a letter to somebody of the same sex even if we know that friend much better. Some people say that emotions are just a chemical reaction, but I don't want to believe that. I don't know what they are, but life would be boring without them. 51.According to the passage, because you can ‘express' emotions, ________. A.your face might turn red when you feel shy. B.you might know it when you're in danger. C.you might smile when you're happy. D.you are good at hiding your emotions. 52.Which reaction is NOT mentioned when people are angry? A.Their faces turn white or red. B.They don't seem to like to talk to others. C.They often talk to people in a loud voice. D.They write to their friends or relatives. 53.Which of the following is TRUE? A.Emotions only include physical reactions. B.We can hardly see a person's feelings from his face. C.We might smell or see emotions, but we can't touch them. D.We write ‘love' at the bottom of the letter to our closest friends. 54.In the writer's opinion, what is ‘emotion'? A.It's hard to say what it is. B.It is just a chemical reaction. C.It's a physical reaction to something in our lives. D.It can be controlled, felt, expressed and known easily. C According to a survey(调查) by CIF, there's room for improvement all over Britain. Cleaning our home, love or hate it, is one job you have to work on. But that is not to say everyone spends the same amount(量) of time or effort on making their places tidy. A new survey by CIF—experts on making cleaning jobs easier—shows that when it comes to washing windows or cleaning the oven(炉), where you live in the UK may show how much effort you put into the job. BATHROOM 25% of men have never cleaned the toilet, but those in Wales are the worst. Nearly four in ten Welsh men said they never cleaned anywhere in the house. Hate cleaning the shower head? You are not alone—a quarter of a million British people say the same. 20% of Scottish people regard window-cleaning as their most hated job. KITCHEN 36% of people in the southeast say cleaning the cooker is their hated task. 68% of those 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 33 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 in the northeast spend more than six hours a week cleaning their homes, especially the kitchen. In sharp contrast(强烈的对比) to that, 49% of Welsh people put their hands up to cleaning for under an hour. BEDROOM 18% believe cleaning starts here: that's the percentage of women who clean wearing their dressing gowns(a kind of clothes). 51% of women in the northwest may be staying in bed and giving their husbands a cuddle(拥抱)as a “thank you” for helping them clean. In other places, there are far fewer helpful men. LIVINGROOM 32% of women in the northeast turn up the CD player to help make the cleaning more fun. Almost six in ten women agree, however, that cleaning is seriously energetic exercise. ★ SHIFT (除掉) THE DIRT WITH CIF! ★ It's no secret that the right cleaning products will cut cleaning time and effort in half and no one knows that better than CIF. For all your cleaning needs, here are some of CIF's top tips: ·Stop a lot of build-up on your shower head. Give it a quick squirt(喷) with CIF bathroom spray(喷剂) once a week. ·Stainless steel(不锈钢) tools seem to need endless cleaning. The CIF Wild Orchid Oxy-Gel lifts dirt easily and leaves the kitchen smelling fresh and clean. ·Cooking outside? CIF cream will get your barbecue (烧烤) completely clean, ready for those long, lazy summer evenings. Perfect! 55.The main purpose of this passage is to ________. A.tell us the results of a certain survey B.advertise a certain cleaning product C.show us which is the hardest job at home D.advise men to do more cleaning housework 56.From the survey we can know that people in different parts of Britain ________. A.have different ways to do housework B.like to do different kinds of housework C.have so many different kinds of tools on house cleaning D.spend different amounts of time and effort on house cleaning 57.According to the survey, ________ spend the most time cleaning their homes. A.people in Wales B.people in the northwest C.people in the southeast D.people in the northeast 58.CIF in the passage probably refers to ________. A.an organization doing research on housework B.some experts who give advice on doing housework C.a company providing advice and products on cleaning D.a TV show about providing cleaning products 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听独白,按要求完成下面的听力任务(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的内容和提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在下面的横线上。 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 34 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 Age: Experience: Language: Requirements: www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 A Salesman is wanted by LEGO Between 1.________ and 40 At least 3 years’ experience 2.________ in world markets 3.________ and one other Asian language ·4.________ for about six months in a year in other countries ·Know how to sell in old markets and find new ones ·Know how to make more money 二、语言知识运用(2) (共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 根据中文提示完成句子。 5.别怕犯错误,没人会嘲笑你。 Don't ________ making mistakes.Nobody will laugh at you. 6.北京机场三号航站楼长 2,900 米,宽 790 米。 Beijing Capital International Airport Terminal 3 is ________. 7.她不会介意帮我们完成这项工作的。 She won't ________ the job. 8.我认为冬天总是关着窗户不利于你的健康。 I don't think it ________ in winter. 9.托尼经过和老师长时间地反复讨论之后,托尼才下定决心尝试这个新想法。 Tony ________ discussing it with his teacher again and again. 三、阅读短文选词填空(共 7 分,每小题 1 分) expensive, down, famous, visit, leave, shopping, thought New York is one of the most exciting cities in the world.

As they got to the bookstore, they saw a young man walking down the stairs. In his hurry, he missed the last two steps, and fell to the ground. He tried hard to get back to his feet while people around him laughed. Luckily, he seemed to be OK. Mary was worried. She found Huihua smiling a little and was not comfortable about it. “Tell me, Huihua, how could people laugh when someone fell like that? Do they care at all? Shouldn't they go up and ask the young man whether he was hurt?” “They knew he wasn't hurt too much. ”Huihua said. “But I still don't understand. A fall is a fall. In my culture, people would do anything 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 35 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 but laugh!” Chinese Perspective(观点) This is an example in which the Chinese and the westerners explain a smile differently. Very often, the Chinese people would also laugh or make a joke to ease the embarrassment (缓解尴尬) when they are caught in the embarrassing situation. However, if someone gets hurt seriously, it will not be a laughing matter any more. People will help him instead. North American Perspective A westerner would explain laughter in such a situation as a sign of either insensitivity (不关心) or, worse, pleasure that the person falling had hurt himself because that person was disliked. A westerner's reaction would have been to rush over, help the person up, and to ask him, “Are you OK?” If a westerner fell, he, like a Chinese person, might probably make a joke out of the incident(事件) if he was not hurt. If two close friends are walking together, and one trips but clearly isn't hurt, a common joke is to say“ Have a nice trip”. However, this joke would be made only between two people who knew each other well. 17.Did Huihua help the young man after he fell down in the bookstore? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.How did Mary feel about Huihua's attitude towards the young man? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.In a westerner's opinion, what does the laughter in an embarrassing situation show? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.What does the underlined word “trip” mean? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What is the main idea of the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、写作(共 15 分) 22.根据中文大意和英文提示词语,写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。 所给英文提示词语供选用。请不要写出你的校名和姓名。 暑假期间,一些外国朋友将到你校参观访问。学校准备进行一次英语征文活动。征文内 容:向外国朋友简要介绍你学校的生活以及一个/件你最难忘的人/事,并表达你对学校生 活的感受。 提示词语:my school,busy,activities,after class,once,help,encourage,give up 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 36 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 5 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 2009 年北京市西城区中考英语二模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 听力理解(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片。每段对话读两遍(共 4 分,每小题 1 分) 1. 2. 3. 4. 二、听对话或独白,根据对话或独白的内容,从下列各题所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中,选 择最佳选项。每段对话或独白读两遍(共 14 分,每小题 1 分) 请听一段对话,回答第 5 小题。 5.How long did the woman spend cooking the dinner?

Every once in a while she would bring home a new book. She'd sit with it on her leg, looking at the meaningless black marks without moving the eyes and cry. She was not stupid. She simply had not had the 35 to learn to read. Her parents were sharecroppers in Florida in the 1920s. Sharecroppers did not own the 36 they farmed. Instead, they gave a part of their crops(plants grown on farms for food)to the owner. It was quite a hard way to 37 , and both of Bertha's parents worked hard in the fields. Often Bertha had to leave school to help. Before she was a teenager, Bertha's schooling was 38 . Bertha Ingram didn't learn to read 39 her early married life, either. She wanted to, but she was always too busy. She worked all day. Bertha Ingram's mind was sharp(敏锐地). As a housekeeper for other people, she had to memorize telephone messages. She became a good cook too, but she had to 40 everything she did because there was no cookbook she could read, and she couldn't write down what she had done. In 1978 Bertha Ingram became very ill with a stroke(中风). This illness 41 her to lose the use of one arm and both legs. It also weakened her ability to speak. 42 she began to get better, she had a 43 thought—for the first time in her life. Because she couldn't work, she had the time to learn to read. In her town there was a special program that taught adults to read, but Bertha In-gram was quite nervous. Would people laugh at her? Would they 44 to teach her?It didn't happen that way. She had a teacher who worked very hard with her. After the first day Ingram could 45 wait to get to the library. As she learned to read, Ingram got more and more confidence(信心) in herself. She became a reader at religious(宗教的 1) services, joined neighborhood groups, and 46 at meetings in city hall. Finally she wrote a book telling about her life.

He was swimming in the sea one day. As he opened his mouth, his false(not real) teeth fell out and floated(漂) away. The following year, Mr. Jones returned to the same town. When he was having dinner in a lo-cal café one evening, he mentioned the story of his lost teeth to the manager. The manager looked surprised. He explained that he had found a set of false teeth on the beach last month. Then he asked Roy Jones if he wanted to try them on. “OK,” said Mr. Jones. “I suppose it won't do any harm.” When the manager brought him the teeth, Mr. Jones put them into the mouth, and laughed and laughed. They were his! In 1987, an American couple called Jane and Robert Bentley went for a picnic on a beach in California. When they returned home, Mrs. Bentley realized that she had lost her wedding ring(结婚戒指). It wasn't expensive but it was valuable to Jane. The Bentleys drove back to the beach and searched for the ring for three hours, but couldn't find it. A few months later, Mr. Bentley went fishing off the same beach. As he pulled a large crab(螃蟹) out of the sea, he noticed that there was something on one of its claws(爪). It was his wife's wedding ring! 47.Mr. Jones was ________ when he lost his false teeth. A.having dinner B.laughing on the beach C.talking to someone D.swimming in the sea 48.Jones' teeth were found ________. A.in the sea B.in a local shop C.by the manager of a café D.by Mr. Jones himself 49.Jane Bentley found something missing when ________. A.she got home B.her husband was fishing C.she was having a picnic D.she drove back to the beach 50.What did Mrs. Bentley lose on the beach? 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 41 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 电话:010-58302509 www.longwenedu.com B While it is expected that students come to university with the ability to take a good set of notes, this is not always the case(情形). High school may not have asked for it, so good listening and note-taking skills may need to be developed. TRY HOW? TRY HOW? TRY HOW? TRY Being a possible,active listener. Sit down in front and do not read or talk. Pay special attention during the second 20 minutes(when you probably lose it)and to the last minutes when a summary (总结)might be given. Being a confident,active learner. Come to class with an interest in the material(材料)and with questions to be answered. You can develop these by thinking about and preparing for the lesson and by pre-reading the text(This is especially helpful if you find yourself having difficulties keeping up with the material). Getting correct notes,with special attention to the main ideas. There may be an overhead projector(投影仪);if so,get that material down. Besides,look for important points—from the teacher’s verbal(文字)language, or careful reading of his notes. If you still feel you're missing the main points, try showing your notes to classmates or to the teacher. Leaving lots of space between ideas. 续表 WHY? Because you want to continue to add notes in your own words; this will help you learn the material on a deeper level by integrating(整合) it with what you already know. Also, more space will make it easier for you to find material when you are studying. TRY Going over new notes— 10 minutes for each class— within 24 hours. WHY? Because you lose 50% —80% of the material if you don't. TRY? Setting your notes up so you can study effectively( 有 效 地 ) from them. HOW? Leave wide left space at the side of page; here you will write questions from which to study your notes. Leave the back of the page empty, so you can fold(折) the page, cover the notes and answer the questions when studying. 51.During a listening lesson, ________. A.students prefer to talk to each other B.most students might be absent-minded C.the students might lose interest after 20 minutes 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 42 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 D.students don't have to pay attention to the last part of the lesson 52.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A.You should learn to go over your lessons often. B.Taking notes in class can help you master the main idea better. C.Pre-reading what you read might help you understand the material better. D.The writer is not quite satisfied with high school education. 53.The article is probably written for ________. A.high school students B.English teachers C.university students D.grown-ups 54.The best topic of the passage should be ________. A.How to Learn English Well B.How to Be a Confident Learner C.Being an Active Listener D.Listening and Note-taking C Imagine that you are the first person ever to see Hawaii. What would be the first thing you would set foot on? The beach, naturally. There are hundreds of miles of beaches on the twenty islands of Hawaii. These islands cover 1,600 miles and are about 2,300 miles west of California. Most of them are covered with fine white sand. They are thought to be among the finest beaches in the world. Another wonderful thing about the beaches of Hawaii is the water temperature. The year-round average(平均) temperature of the water at the famous Waikiki Beach is 23℃! The same is true of air temperature. In fact, there are no real seasons in Hawaii. There is a difference of only two or three degrees between the hottest day of summer and the coldest day of winter. That's why the Hawaiians don't have a word for weather in their language. Perhaps the nicest thing about Hawaiian beaches are the waves. The earliest settlers(定 居者) in Hawaii, the Polynesians, quickly learned how much fun it was to ride the waves. They developed a sport which is now very popular on the islands called body surfing. You go out into the ocean, wait for a big wave to come towards you, jump on it, and ride it all the way to the beach. Now imagine once again that you are the first person ever to set foot in Hawaii. What do you think would be the second beautiful thing you would notice? Would it be those strange triangles(三角形状物) rising out of the water hundreds and hundreds of meters high? What are those beautiful things? They are volcanoes(火山), of course. These volcanoes are not just a part of the islands. They made the islands at first. Because of them the islands are still growing. The most famous volcano on Hawaii is Mauna Loa. It is the world's most active volcano. It has been erupting(喷发) for thousands of years. Even when it isn't erupting, smoke comes out of the earth from a thousand little holes. In 1950 Mauna Loa erupted for twenty-three days. That erupting produced the greatest amount of lava(熔岩) in modern history. In 1960 it erupted again. That time it added a kilometer of beach to the island. Because Mauna Loa has erupted so often, it has become the biggest(but not the tallest) mountain in the world. These volcanoes could be dangerous to the population of Hawaii. In fact, Hilo, the second 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 43 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 largest city in Hawaii, is built just under Manna Loa. The volcano could erupt at any time. Most people believe that it will erupt sometime in the next twenty-five years. But the people of Hilo do not seem worried. They live with the danger as part of their lives. 55.According to the passage, what are the two most beautiful things in Hawaii? A.Waves and cities. B.Beaches and language. C.Volcanoes and beaches. D.Volcanoes and people. 56.Which is NOT the reason why the Hawaiians don't have a word for weather in their language? A.There are no real seasons in Hawaii. B.The temperature of the water at one of the beaches is always 23℃. C.The Hawaiians feel almost the same in the hottest day and coldest day. D.There is not much difference in air temperature all the year round in Hawaii. 57.What should be the meaning of “body surfing”? A.Riding waves. B.Body-building. C.Sea bathing. D.Jumping into the sea. 58.It can be inferred that ________ according to the passage. A.volcanoes are more active because the area of the island is enlarging B.the visitors to Hawaii can probably see more than one active volcano C.Mauna Loa is the tallest mountain in the world because it has erupted so often D.people in Hilo are sure that more visitors will come because of volcanoes 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听对话,按要求完成下面的听力任务。对话读两遍(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的内容和表格中的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在下面的横线上。 type:类型 transport:交通方式 anniversary:周年纪念日 Tele Message Name: 1.________ Room Type: 2.________ Special Requirement:The fifth anniversary Transport: 3.________ Arrival Time: 4.________ o'clock,Friday night 二、语言知识运用(2) (共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 根据中文提示完成句子。 5.很高兴我的英语取得了很大的进步。 ________ I've made great progress in English. 6.请你在父亲节给爸爸最美好的祝福。 Please ________ on Father's Day. 7.你的饮食习惯越好,你的身体就越健康。 ________ your diet is,________ you will be. 8.为了保护环境,我们去超市购物时最好带上购物袋。 We ________ the supermarket ________ the environment. 9.这个小镇过去污染很严重。人们既看不到蓝天也呼吸不到新鲜的空气。 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 44 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 电话:010-58302509 www.longwenedu.com The pollution in this town used ________ people ________. 三、阅读短文,选词填空(共 7 分,每小题 1 分) jobs map look useful took how part What do you know about a robot?

Whether you can be alive or not is decided by preparation. Here are some tips that could save your life. 1.Getting through the first hour ·Choose an out-of-town person that each family member can call after the disaster if you become alone. Besides, choose two nearby places where family members know to meet. One should be close to your home. The other should be outside your neighbourhood. Keep your important papers at the bank or another safe place. ·Leave a disaster-supply kit(一套装备) (see Part 5) near the front door. Make sure you keep it filled with fresh food and water. ·If you are advised to move to the safe place, leave the area right away. 2.The disaster-ready home You may have some time to prepare before certain types of disasters. Take hurricanes (飓风) as an example. ·Bring in anything that could fly around or blow away. ·Prepare your car for leaving. ·Fill bottles with drinking water. ·Keep your radio on for weather information. 3.The safest places ·Hurricane: stay in an inside space with no windows. Glass could break and hurt you. ·Earthquake(地震): get under the nearest heavy desk or table. This will protect you from falling things. 4.Preparing for the worst—do this now! ·Hurricane: during the hurricane season, keep a two-week supply of drugs. Have wood and nails(钉子) ready to cover windows. ·Earthquake: move beds away from windows, heavy pictures or mirrors. Place large and/or heavy objects on lower shelves. Learn how to shut off the electricity and water. 5.Your disaster-supply kit ·First-aid(急救用的) kit and drugs; spare clothes; a radio; car keys; important phone numbers. 17.Should you leave when you are asked to move? 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 45 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.What do you know is a deadly mistake from the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.Why should you keep your radio on before certain types of disasters? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.Where can you stay to keep safe when hurricanes happen? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What can you do to prepare for the earthquake according to the passage?(At least 3 points) ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、写作(共 15 分) 22.根据中文提示和英文书信内容,写一封意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的回信,信 的开头和结尾已给出,其字数不计入所完成的回信内。 假设你叫李阳,是英国中学生 Mike 的朋友,你收到了他的一封电子邮件。请根据他来 信的内容写一封回信。针对他的困惑,谈谈你的看法,同时提出一些建议。 Dear Li Yang, How are you? I had a very good time with you and your family in Beijing last month. It impressed (留下深刻印象) me a lot that many students went to school by bike. I like cycling, and have a bike which my uncle bought me for my birthday. I want to ride to school too, but my parents don't agree. I'm 15 years old now, but they keep driving me to school and picking me up every day. These days, I am always angry with them because they just allow me to ride in the park on weekends. Last night I went out to ride my bike after they fell asleep. It was so cool! I'm thinking of riding to school in the morning before they get up. Do you think it's a good idea or not?

If anybody was passing by out on the road, 38 would either change her mind or just give me a few light touches. Thinking about it now, I feel certain that just as my father supported me for being 39 than the other children, my mother gave me more shout for the 40 reason.

But there are still some people who don't believe family life can be an enjoyable experience. Some people already accepted the idea of the “me generation” so they fail to understand that there is a time in life when they have to give up their time to something more valuable. At a time when adults need to think about the needs of their family, they will be doing other important things. Some people will spend too much time working for amore powerful car or a bigger house so that they can proudly say that they have them. Some will be doing dangerous things so that they may tell their stories to their friends, and others will recite things like “I must become the best I can be” or “I don't want to be at the bottom.” The needs of their family will be forgotten and they never seem to have time for the family. Many people have not experienced a strong helpful perfect family life, so they have never discovered its worth. Many people have always experienced family life as a fight, so they can't find time and energy for work. But it is really very important that we all expect good family relations. We need to realize and value the importance of what can be achieved by loving each other in the family. It is also important for our society to encourage family members to create happiness. 51.What does the writer expect family life to be like? A.Happy experience. B.A strong society. C.Too much work. D.A fight. 52.What is meant by “me generation”? A.I will do whatever the family want me to do. B.Nothing is more important than myself. C.I always agree with people around. D.The generation is my age group. 53.Why haven't some people discovered the worth of family life? A.They are not married. B.They grow in a happy family. C.They don't live with the family. D.They have never enjoyed family life. 54.What is the writer's purpose of writing the passage? A.To ask people to study family life. B.To tell people to work hard for the family. C.To advise people to create happy family life. D.To give people some examples of family members. C The oil resources which are left will not last very long. This means that all vehicles such as cars, trains, buses, planes and ships that need oil to work will not be able to run. So it will be necessary to develop a new method of transport which doesn't use oil. Electric vehicles are one possibility. In England, most families have at least one car and this car is used every day. It could be that only one person in the family drives the car to work or for shopping. The number of cars on the road perhaps helps to explain why the oil is used up so quickly. The family car is a very useful form of trans-port but it is also a great waste of energy, especially if it is compared with buses or trains which use less petrol per person than a car. A car traveling at 80 kilometers an hour uses only half as much petrol as a car which is traveling at 120 kilometers 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 51 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 an hour. Clearly, it would be better if there were fewer cars on the road and more speed limits so that the oil which is left will last as long as possible. About 25% of England's total consumption(消耗) of energy is domestic—it is used only in the home. Just over 20% is used for transport. Most of the energy is used in industry. It is difficult to suggest any possible energy conservation(保护) in industry because many of the suggestions would mean that some people would lose their jobs. It is important that industry produces the same amount of products using the same amount of workers. Clearly, conservation is not going to be the answer to the energy problem. The most it can do is to give more time for a better method to be found. The more time we have to develop new sources of energy, the better it is because there is still a lot of work to be done in order to find suitable, safe methods of producing energy. 55.What does the word “domestic” mean in paragraph two? A.Producing energy. B.Fast driving. C.On the road. D.For family use. 56.Why will all vehicles that need oil to work not be able to run? A.Oil resources which are left will be used up soon. B.A new system of transport will be developed. C.They will be replaced by electric vehicles. D.They waste a lot of energy. 57.Which is true according to the passage? A.A car running at 80 km an hour uses more oil than 120 km an hour. B.Family cars can save much more energy than buses and trains. C.It is possible for English people to develop vehicles.

Olympic Festival. “I wasn't afraid of running; I was afraid I might die,” said Joyner-Kersee. “I said ‘Don't be afraid... just hold on.'” So, what is asthma? It's a health condition that causes difficulty in breathing. Although it comes and goes, once you have asthma, you have it for a long time. Different treatments are used for asthma. There are very strong drugs that can be taken for a long time with few side effects. Today, even people with serious asthma can take part in sports. Joyner-Kersee has had problems with asthma for many years. She said, “I didn't have this as a little girl. It wasn't until I went to California that I noticed it, and then I didn't want to accept it. When I start feeling good, I stop taking the medicine. It will be all right I hope.” The race was supposed to start at 5:35 p. m. At 5:00, she began to have trouble breathing. She was given a breathing test and treatment by a doctor. She said she thought about not running. She was out of breath. “It's just hard running with asthma,” she said. “When I experienced this in practice I couldn't breathe. It was really hard for me.” She said the problem with asthma is that you don't know when it will happen. She was fine when she arrived at the stadium. The breathing treatment helped her. Joyner-Kersee's experience shows that medical treatment is important. First, if you think you have asthma, see a doctor. Asthma drugs can protect your lungs. Second, pay attention to your health. Tell your doctor immediately if you wake up and have trouble breathing. This means the condition is getting worse. Many people don't want to be known to have asthma, and then they must go to the hospital. Most importantly, remember that with asthma, you can have a normal life. You can even win an Olympic gold medal. 17.Did Jackie Joyner-Kersee run at the 1994 U. S.

A.a popular interesting story B.a new school subject C.a new teaching program D.a teacher's experience 48.Mrs Elizabeth Blackmer and Miss Linda Ferrier are probably ________. A.students B.teachers C.workers D.programmers 49.They have planned for people of ________ different languages. A.24 B.42 C.100 D.5,000 B People usually use modern machines to produce things in large numbers. This method lowers the cost of their products(产品) and the price of these products in the markets is lower, too. Thus they give us better values. At the same time, new technology and science are always at work, improving the quality of products. In this way, better quality products at good values are one after the other being brought to the people of all income groups. As an example of how this works, when facial tissues, pieces of thin soft paper that you use to blow your nose, were first put on the market in 1924, they were made in small numbers and sold at 60 cents per box of 200. People liked these facial tissues immediately and began asking for them when they went into different stores. Because there was such a market for the product, producers began making tissues in larger and larger numbers. Because the producers were making tissues in greater numbers, the costs were lowered, so that the cost of tissues went down. At the same time, the quality of facial tissues was improving, because more producers went into the business of making tissues, and each producer tried to make his product better than his competitors(竞争者). Today, instead of costing 60 cents, a box of 200 facial tissues costs around one third of that price, and they are both softer and stronger. When people are free to compete, when they are free to make more things and make them better, we all feel much better. 50.How do the makers cut the cost of their products? A.They cut the price of their products in the supermarkets. B.They have many different machines in their factories. C.They improve the quality of their products. D.They produce things in large numbers. 51.How much does a box of 200 tissues cost today? A.80 cents. B.60 cents. C.40 cents. D.20 cents. 52.Why does the writer of the passage set facial tissue as an example? A.To show how the price of tissues becomes lower. B.To show how the quality of tissues becomes higher. C.To tell the readers how the tissues are made. D.To tell the readers how the tissues are sold. 53.Which is true according to the passage? A.The more products they make, the better quality the products will be. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 59 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 B.The lower the price of the products is, the more value we can get. C.The more products they sell, the less money they make. D.The freer you are, the better you feel. C Many people have talked about whether or not computing machines can think. Can they or can’t they? Almost certainly, a machine can do any work in thinking that a person can do—if the correct way for doing the thinking work can be told exactly. Besides, many programs have been made to direct machines so that they work in very clever ways. Machines have been taught to play chess and to learn from what happens in the games so as to make their play better and better. Machines can beat many persons who play chess. Machines can translate from one language to another. They can prove statements in geometry(几何) as taught in school. Machines can notice printed marks on paper, so that a person is no longer needed to look at the marks. Computers can be used in many ways, such as business, science, industry, and government. Computers study oilfield examinations made by airplanes; they keep record of oil sales; they study the working condition of the machines; they help in planning and producing oil; and much more. If people cannot tell exactly the correct way to do certain work in thinking, it is still a question how much of this work a machine can do. Suppose a person is “teaching” the machine and telling the machine “yes” when the machine is right, and “no” when the machine is wrong. Then the machine can keep on searching among possible ways for solving a problem—until the machine can do as well as the person, and perhaps much better. But, what is thinking? People can agree about much that is thinking, and much that is not thinking; but they can’t reach agreement because the word “think” is not a scientific word with an exact meaning. A lot of the discussion is wasted breath because the persons are using different meanings of the word “think”. People, however, have only had experience with machines that appear to think since 1944. It would be too early to say that after the next 200 years, machines will not be thinking. And to consider that machines can think gives people a big push to give to machines more and more work in thinking. 54.The underlined part in paragraph three is about computers used in ________. A.Education. B.Government. C.Sports. D.Industry. 55.What does “this work” mean in paragraph four? A.Thinking. B.Teaching. C.Searching. D.Telling. 56.What is the main idea of paragraph five? A.There is much to say about thinking. B.People discuss a lot about thinking. C.There is no answer to what thinking is. D.People already know what thinking is. 57.What does the writer want to say in the passage? A.A machine will do any work in thinking like a human being. B.A machine can do better translation than human beings.

But be careful what you pour down your throat; 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 61 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of so-called energy drinks on the market. Most of them have an attractive color and cool name. But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have high levels of caffeine. These drinks are specially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine raises your heartbeat. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited their use. The amount of caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as high as in a strong cup of coffee or strong tea. Research by Australian scientists has found that many teenagers are affected by caffeine. The results of their study show that 27 percent of boys aged 8-12 take in more caffeine than their parents. There are hidden health problems connected to energy drinks. Just one can of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart attacks. “Teenagers should not be encouraged to have drinks with high level caffeine in them,” a scientist from the Australia Nutrition Foundation said. 75.Are all the drinks that look cool good for health? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.What kind of drinks has high level caffeine? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.Who are these drinks for? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.Who made the research on the drinks with high levels of caffeine? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.Why should teenagers not be encouraged to have drinks with high level caffeine in them? ___________________________________________________________________________ 十、书面表达(共 15 分) 80.根据中文提示和英文内容,写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。请不要写 出你的校名和姓名。 请你阅读下面有关奥运冠军费尔普斯的文章节选部分,然后以中学生李华的名义给费尔 普斯写一封信,简述他的行为和你的看法,然后给他提出有效缓解压力的建议。 文章节选: Phelps Apologizes to Fans Olympic champion Michael Phelps has apologized(道歉)to Chinese fans the Internet for taking marijuana,a kind of drug. “As many of you know,I recently did something that was not what people expect from me.” Phelps said. with his words printed in Chinese. “The past few days have been hard for me,but I’ve received support and encouragement online from so many Chinese friends.” Dear Phelps, I am Li Hua, a middle school student from Beijing. _________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 62 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Best wishes, Li Hua 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 63 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 8 2009 年北京市朝阳区中考英语一模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(选择题 共 70 分) 听力理解(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片。每段对话读两遍(共 4 分,每小题 1 分) 1. 2. 3. 4. 二、听对话或独白,根据对话或独白内容,选择正确答案。每段对话或独白读两遍(共 14 分,每小题 1 分) 请听四段对话,完成第 5 至第 8 小题。 5.What’s the date today?

But mostly it’s for love. I had not believed this until a student, who was called Mark, gave me a wonderful gift one Christmas. Mark was an 11-year-old orphan(孤儿) who lived with his aunt, a middle aged woman greatly annoyed(使烦恼) with the burden(负担) of 35 for her dead sister’s son. I had not 36 Mark especially until he began staying after class each day to help me tidy up the room. We did this quietly, not speaking much, but enjoying the time of the day. When we did talk, Mark spoke mostly of his 37 , who had always spent much time with him before she passed away. 38 Christmas came near, however, Mark failed to stay after school each day. I 39 him one afternoon and asked why he no longer helped me in the room. “I was making you a 40 ,” he said confidently(有信心地) in a low voice. “It’s for Christmas.” With that, he left the room in a hurry. He didn’t stay after school any more after that. Finally 41 the last school day before Christmas. Mark walked slowly into the room late that afternoon. “I have a present,” he said. “I hope you like it.” He held out his hand, and in it was a tiny wooden box. “It’s beautiful, Mark. What’s in it?” I asked, opening the top to look 42 . “Oh, you can’t see it,” he replied, “and you can’t touch it, or taste it or feel it, but mother always said it makes you feel good all the time, warm on cold nights, and safe when you’re 43 .” 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 66 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 I looked into the 44 box. “What is it, Mark,” I asked, “that will make me feel so good?

Do these women really like working? Women live longer than men, so they have to save more money for their retired(退休的) lives. Women earn(挣) less, so they save less. And they work few years because they have to look after children or elderly parents. How can we help women find a way to retire when they want to? Here are some thoughts: (1)Right now only 47% of working women take part in a company retirement plan. American business can do much more to help that number grow. (2)Knowledge is power(力量). 53% of women who have a retirement plan said they would increase their income(收入) if they had a chance to receive financial(财经的) education. (3)Nonworking women can invest(投资) up to $ 5,000 every year to increase their income. These ideas can help women work longer, not because they have to but because they want to. You can learn more about this topic and join in the discussion at www. wsj. retirement. com. 47.Many women over 65 keep working because ________. A.they like working B.they have to save money C.they can work long D.they have nothing to do. 48.How many working women have taken part in a company retirement plan? A.About one third. B.About 5,000.

D.On the Internet. B On a cloudy afternoon last September, Rubio watched Texas National Guard soldiers help passengers off planes at a small airport near College Station. All of them were running away from Hurricane(飓风) Ike. They had something else in common as well. Each passenger wore a bright yellow wristband(腕标), RFID, developed by Rubio’s company. The wristband had a computer chip(芯片), which allowed the state’s emergency response center(急救中心)to follow the person who wore it. “The wristband really made a difference,” says Rubio, adding that thousands of families who called the state’s emergency response center during the hurricane were able to find loved ones. The wristbands also made a lot of money for Rubio’s company. That’s a goal Rubio could not have imagined even a few years ago, as a 36-year-old stay-at-home mum with three kids under ten and a husband who traveled for work five days a week. “All I wanted was to have my family back together,” she says. Rubio considered doing something different after the birth of her third child and returned to work. A friend suggested the technology of RFID. It wasn’t new but was mainly used to find packages. Rubio began imagining wider use of RFID, and in 2005 the wristband appeared at a business conference and did a good job. In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the company further used the technology, and later during Ike about 27,000 people were successfully saved. “I’m a mum with three kids or a woman in a technology field. I’ve succeeded and got confidence(信心).” Rubio also achieved something else. She finally has the family life she always wanted. 51.People wore wristbands during Hurricane Ike in order to ________. A.protect them from being hurt B.be allowed to get on the planes C.lead their way to a safe place D.be found easily by other people 52.Rubio decided to return to work because ________. A.she wanted to make money B.she liked the new technology C.she needed a change in life D.she was used to hard work 53.How did the wristband work according to the passage? A.Very well. B.All right. C.Not well. D.Very badly. 54.What does Rubio think is the most important? A.Usual business. B.Family life. C.Great success. D.Social position.. C When punctuation(标点) began, it was mainly to help people read out loud. Until a few hundred years ago, not many people were taught to read, so there was a lot more reading out loud by the few people who could. To help those reading out loud in the old days, sign(符号) known as “points” were added to 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 68 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 pages of writing. Punctuation comes from the Latin word punctus, meaning “point”. These points told readers when to pause(暂停) or take a breath, and what to emphasize(加重). In Europe from the early centuries AD, these points were widely used although not everybody used the same points for the same thing. When printing was invented, printers had to be made more clearly about what to put where, so that everyone was doing the same thing. Since that point, all sorts of punctuation rules have been discovered and invented. Speech marks “...” Speech marks or quotation marks are used to show that someone is speaking. The sort we have in English today began to be widely used during the 18th century. Before that readers simply understood from the way a sentence was written that someone was speaking although sometimes spoken words were underlined. Comma , colon: period(full stop). All three of these sorts of punctuation marks were given their Greek names by Aristophanes, a librarian who lived in Byzantium in the 2nd century BC. They were marks on the page, each with a message to the reader. Comma meant a short pause. Colon meant a medium(中等的) sized pause. Period meant a long pause. Exclamation mark! In the early days of punctuation, if you saw this sign, you were supposed to pause. Some people think the exclamation mark began as what the Greek word IO looked like if it was turned 90 degrees. This word means “Oh, gosh!” With the I on the top and the O under it, the sign as we know it today was developed. Question mark? In the middle age, a squiggle(圆弧) above a full stop was sometimes used to show the sentence was a question and that a person’s voice should go up at the end. By the 17th century it had turned into what we call a question mark. The shape may have come from the letter Q short for that Latin quaestio, meaning “question”. Writers make choices about punctuation because they think differently about sentences and words. It’s part of the personality of their writing. Some writers hate punctuation, but others love punctuation. So whether you love or hate punctuation, the best advice may be to just enjoy it, play with it, think about it and use it. It belongs(属于) to the language and it belongs to you. 55.When did punctuation begin to be widely used, according to the passage? A.In the 17th century. B.In the 2nd century BC. C.In the 18th century. D.In the early centuries AD. 56.All punctuation rules were discovered and invented in order to ________. A.help people read out loud B.meet the need of printing C.guide the way of writing D.mention the spoken words 57.Which of the following is true? A.A long pause comes after question mark. B.Speech marks were named by a librarian. C.Question mark comes from a Latin word. D.The shape of a word makes exclamation mark. 58.What’s the problem about punctuation today? A.People have completely different ideas about it. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 69 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 电话:010-58302509 www.longwenedu.com B.Not many people are taught to use it correctly.

They used to mend their clothes and reused them until they wore out. When they bought things, they used to carry shopping baskets. But now we don’t reuse things well and more rubbish has been produced. We throw away 25 million tones of waste in our dustbins(垃圾箱) every year. That means one family throw away about one thousand kilos of waste. We have a strong reason to take it as a serious problem! The fact is that lots of rubbish we throw away could be reused or recycled(回收利用). The so-called rubbish isn’t really rubbish. The UK is one of the worst recyclers in Europe. In other words, in the UK, they’re recycling only about 8% of their everyday waste. That’s much less than many other countries. Germany recycles 10%, while Japan recycles 40%. The government has set a goal of recycling 30% of their everyday waste by the year 2010. But it looks that it is not easy to teach it. As we know, some habits are difficult to change and some collection plans are expensive to carry out. At present, the movement called Recycle Now in the UK tries to change that situation. The Top designer(设计师) Oliver Heath is a strong fan of the movement. In 2005 he designed the first home built completely from recycled things, including metal cans and glass bottles. “It always makes me excited when I make good use of those recycled things,” he said, “Maybe in the near future, you can also make something from recycled computer printers, plastic bags, bottle tops or CDs.” When his story was reported on TV, more and more people begin to try his ideas. Some local(地方的) governments have set up recycling centres where it’s easy for families to take their empty bottles and old newspapers. Instead of throwing away the so-called rubbish, some families start doing more about it. With the effort of the whole country, we are happy to see some progress in some places in the UK. 75.Do people produce more rubbish than before.? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.Why does the writer think rubbish is a serious problem? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.Which country recycles more than 10%, Germany or Japan? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.How does Oliver Heath feel when he turns recycled things into something useful? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.What conclusion(结论) can you get about the recycling work in the UK? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(15 分) 根据中文提示和英文书信内容,写一封意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的回信(信 的开头和结尾已给出,其字数不计入所完成的回信内) 80.假设你叫玛丽,是校刊英语角的主持人,你收到了一位同学迈克的来信。请你根据他的 来信内容写一封回信,针对他的烦恼,谈谈你的看法,同时提出一些建议。 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 71 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Dear Mary, It seems that some of my classmates are so lucky that they can get everything they want.

Through the years I would 35 at the correct answer. When I was younger I thought 36 was very important to us as humans, so I said, “My ears, Mum.” She said, “No. Many important people are deaf. But I’d like you to 37 thinking about it and I’ll ask you again soon.” Since making my first attempt(尝试), I had often thought over the question. So this time I told her, “Mum, it must be our eyes.” She looked at me and said, “You are 38 fast. Eyes are the windows of our heart, but the answer is not correct because there are many blind people who are very successful.” Over the years, mother asked me a couple more times and always her response(答复) to my answers was, “No, but you are getting 39 every year, my child.” Then last year, my grandpa died. 40 was heartbroken and was crying sadly. My mum looked at me when it was our 41 to say our final goodbye to Grandpa. She asked me, “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?” I got terribly 42 when she was asking me this at that time. I always thought this was a 43 between her and me. She saw the puzzlement(困惑) on my face and told me, “This question is very important. It shows that you have really 44 your life.” She went on with tears in her eyes, “My dear, the most important body part is your shoulders.” “Is it because they 45 up my head?” I asked. “No, it is because on them a crying friend or loved one can rest his head. I 46 hope that you have enough friends that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it,” she said.

B Jackie Heinricher’s love with bamboo started in her backyard. “As a child, I remember playing among the golden bamboo my dad had planted, and when it was windy, the bamboos sounded musical. It was my favorite place.” A biologist(生物学家) by training, Heinricher, 47, planned to work in a company in Seattle, 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 76 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 where she lived with her husband, but she found it too boring. Her garden gave her the idea for a business. She would plant bamboo on their private farm. Heinricher started Boo-shoot Garden in 1998.She realized early on what is just now beginning to appear on the rest of the world. Bamboo is useful as well as earth-friendly. It can be used to make skateboards, buildings, furniture, floors and even clothing. Bamboo takes in four times as much carbon dioxide(CO2) as hardwood trees and gives out 35% more oxygen(O2). First she had to find a way to produce a lot of the plants. It was a hard task since bamboo flowers create seed(种子) only once every 50 to 100 years. And dividing a bamboo plant too often kills it. “People kept telling us we’d never succeed,” says Heinricher. “Others had worked on it for 27 years ! I believed in what we were doing, though, so I just kept going.” After a nine-year experiments, she found a way to grow millions of plants. The number of workers in her company increased from 5 to 55. Now she is working on all kinds of bamboo and selling them all over the world. “We are at the wonderful moment,” she says. “It takes me a lot of time to decide where to pay my attention. Producing bamboo products? Selling plants to gardeners? Educating farmers about the economic(经济的) and environmental value of bamboo forests? Or asking the government to line roads with bamboo?” 51.When did Heinricher begin to love bamboo? A.When she was a child. B. When she was 47. C.Twenty-seven years ago. D.About ten years ago. 52.Bamboo is earth-friendly because ________. A.it can produce musical sounds B.it can be used widely C.it can make our city beautiful D.it can help clean the air 53.What does the passage mainly talk about? A.Heinricher’s bamboo garden. B.Heinricher’s bamboo company. C.Heinricher’s bamboo story. D.Heinricher’s bamboo products. 54.What is Heinricher’s work like now? A.It’s still in great trouble. B.It has been successful. C.It’s in perfect condition. D.It has begun to go easily. C Once very surprising, now very important, women astronauts(宇航员) explain what’s so cool about zero-g, and what 50 years exploration(探索) has taught the world. Peggy Whitson Age: 48 Astronaut since: 1996 Space time: Two six-month tours on the International Space Station, in 2002 and 20072008. “Mind is a lot more important than body. So is your ability to think in 3-D and imagine how to move things in a different way than on earth. The second time I went to the station, it felt like coming home.

Many 68 go to school for education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and math. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make money.

He teaches them how to read and how to 70 . So, much more is to be learnt 71 school by the students themselves. It’s always more 72 to learn how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or rules. Great scientists, like Newton, Galileo and Edison, didn’t get 73 from school, but they were all successful.

To find out, ask yourself some questions: Do I exercise regularly? Do I ever walk places instead of driving my car? Do I ever play sports for fun? Do I ever take the stairs instead of the elevator? If you answered no to any or all of the above questions, you are probably out of shape and need to start a fitness program. Exercise is very important. It improves your strength and blood circulation(循环). It gives you more energy. It can help you relax and sleep well, and it can help control your weight. In fact, the U. S. Surgeon General says that exercise can help prevent heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and osteoporosis(a disease that weakens the bones). The first step is to make a program. A good fitness program should be fun. It should involve (包含)both your arms and your legs, and it should help you to build endurance (the ability to do exercise for a long time). To make a good program for yourself, first you should think about the types of activities you like to do, what you think you are able to do, and when you will have time to do it. A good exercise program will involve cardiovascular activities, such as running, biking, swimming, roller skating, playing soccer or tennis, or jumping rope. It will also involve weight-bearing exercise, such as weightlifting, and stretching activities. Also, daily, low-intensity activities such as walking, gardening, dancing, and climbing stairs are good for your physical health. So what are you waiting for? Get off of the sofa and start exercising. Sign up for yoga, tai chi, or pilates. Join a gym or a running club, or just start walking a half an hour every day. Every little bit helps! 51.We can learn from the passage that ________. A.exercise can prevent all kinds of diseases B.a good exercise program should be exciting C.exercise can help you control your weight D.it’s not necessary to make an exercise program 52.A good exercise program should involve ________ types of activities. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 85 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 A.two B.three C.four D.five 53.Which of the following is low-intensity activities? A.swimming B.jumping rope C.weightlifting D.climbing stairs 54.What does the writer mainly tell us? A.Exercise is important and should be part of your daily life. B.A good exercise program can help you a lot to keep healthy. C.Exercise can improve your strength and blood circulation. D.Start to make an exercise program when you are out of shape. C A prairie is a type of grassland. Prairies are made up of a complete interdependent ecosystem. This means that all kinds of plants and animals in a prairie region depend on one another for survival(生存). The members of a prairie ecosystem include grasses, flowering plants, animals, soil(土壤), sand, and fire. You may look at a prairie and think there’s nothing there but grass, but that’s not true. Most of the prairie’s living things are below the ground. Underneath the prairie’s surface are roots and bulbs(根茎). The roots of the prairie flowers and grasses run deep. Some of them are as deep as 3.5 metres below the ground. It is important for the roots to run deep because fires are a part of the prairie ecosystem. When a fire burns through the prairie, plants with shallow(not deep) roots can not survive. Plants that have deep root systems are able to survive the fires. When fire burns across a prairie, it burns dead plants from the top and returns those nutrients(养料) to the soil. This adds to the richness of the prairie soil. Prairies have some of the richest soil in the United States. This cycle of growth and burning has been going on for thousands of years. Big bluestem is the plant that gives parts of the prairie the name “tallgrass prairie”. Big bluestem has very deep roots, and its stems(茎) are often 2 metres tall. The American bison(野牛) or buffalo, is the country’s largest land animal. Its home is on the prairies. In 1830, there were an estimated 30 million to 60 million bison in the United States. By 1889, Americans had made the bison population to fewer than 1,000 animals. Through great efforts, bison are being reintroduced to the prairies. They are also kept in zoos. The bison population has grown to several hundred thousand today. Humans have put the prairie ecosystem in danger. Through constant farming, building, fire prevention, and ignorance(not knowing) of how the prairie works, the United States has lost much of its natural prairie. Through education and other work, we can hope to save some of it. 55.A prairie is a type of ________. A.plants B.animals C.grassland D.soil 56.What is the meaning of “interdependent ecosystem” in the first line? A.All things in a prairie region depend on one another. B.Animals live on plants in a prairie region. C.Fire plays an important role in a prairie region. D.Soil has a close relationship with a praide region. 57.By 1889, the bison population was ________.

She came to China last year for her “The Best Damn Tour” concerts. The pop/rock princess(公主) played at Guangzhou first on September 27, followed by other 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 87 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 cities including Chengdu(September 30), Shanghai(October 4) and Beijing(October 6). Lavigne performed her most popular hits in the concerts, including Complicated, Girlfriend, and My Happy Ending. Lavigne has been on the music scene for six years. She has proven that she is not simply another pretty face. Lavigne prefers to wear loose(宽松的) trousers, old T-shirts and a frown (皱眉). That’s not like the tight clothes and sweet smiles of many pop stars. Lavigne knew that she could never be like Britney Spears. In her high school days, “I was only around guys,” she said. “I hung out with guys, playing hockey(曲棍球) and sometimes getting in fights. My band members were all guys.” It was not until she got older that she started acting more girly. “From then to now, I look really different—but that’s called growing up,” she said. Lavigne was only 15 when she was discovered. At that time she had no idea how to make an album. “A career(职业) just came early for me. I was trying to figure out this life,” she said. “My friends still don’t know if they want to be a teacher or a doctor. When I talk to them, they’ll tell me they have exams the next day.” So what does Lavigne think about life? “Life is like a roller coaster(过山车). Live it, be happy,” she said. 75.Where is Avril Lavigne from? __________________________________________________ 76.Has she ever been to China? ___________________________________________________ 77.Was she like a boy or a girl when she was in high school? __________________________ 78.How old was she when she began to be famous? ___________________________________ 79.What’s the difference between her life and her friends’? _____________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 80.假设你叫 Liu Yan,初中三年,你与同学们在一起学习、参加各种活动,相互帮助,彼 此之间建立了深厚的友谊。校园网的英语论坛开辟了“Thank you letter”专栏。请按下面 的要求给你的同学 Ling Feng 写一封感谢信。 注意: 1.这封信要表达你对 Ling Feng 的感谢; 2.信中要简述感谢 Ling Feng 的原因,适当举例,并谈谈自己的感受或想法; 3.词数:不少于 60 词。 4.文中不能出现真实姓名及校名。 提示词语:thank you,at the end of,kind,forget,help…with,stay in touch Dear Ling Feng, 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 88 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Yours, Liu Yan 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 89 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 11 2009 年北京市崇文区中考英语二模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(选择题 共 70 分) 听力(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片。每段对话读两遍(共 4 分,每小题 1 分) 1. 2. 3. 4. 二、听对话或独白,根据对话或独白的内容,选择正确答案。对话或独白读两遍(共 14 分, 每小题 1 分) 听下面四段对话,完成第 5 至第 8 小题。 5.How old is Betty?

This is about the family standing ahead of us. The family had eight children. Their clothes were not expensive but 35 . The children were well behaved. They stood in line, two by two behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly talking about the clowns(小丑), elephants and other acts they would see that night. You could 36 that they had never been to the circus before. The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He 37 replied, “I want eight children’s tickets and two adult tickets please, so I can take my 38 to the circus.” The ticket lady quoted(报) the price. The man’s wife let go of his hand. The man’s lip started to quiver (颤抖). He leaned 靠) toward 39 and asked again, “How much did you say?” The ticket lady quoted the price again. The man didn’t have 40 money. How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight kids that he couldn’t take them to the circus? My dad put his hand into his pocket, pulled out a $ 20 bill and 41 it on the ground. (And we weren’t rich! ) Then he 42 down, picked up the bill, tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir, this 43 out of your pocket.” The man knew 44 was going on. He looked into my dad’s eyes, held my dad’s hand in his, and took the $ 20 bill. With a tear in his eye, he replied, “Thank you, thank you, sir.

It grows three times as much as 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 93 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 China. Which country drinks the most tea? It’s neither China nor Japan. It’s Great Britain. In the wild, tea plants may be 30 feet tall But a plant grown for market is pruned(修剪). Pruning keeps the plant only three or four feet tall. This is an easy height for tea picking. Only the two top leaves and bud of each new shoot are picked. So to make money, tea plantations must be huge. In general, there are two kinds of tea. Black tea and green tea. Black tea is fermented(发酵). In the process, the tea loses nearly all of its healthy qualities. Green tea is steamed(蒸炒) right after the leaves are picked. Green tea retains its healthy qualities. For example, it may prevent heart disease. How did we get tea bag? The answer: by accident. Tea merchants(商人) used to send samples in tin boxes. This was costly. One merchant thought of a cheaper way. He sent samples in small silk bags. Customers would cut open the bag. They would brew the leaves as usual. One customer put the bag into a pot. Then he just poured(倒) hot water over it. And the tea bag was born. Shen Nong was the first to drink tea.(Shen was a Chinese emperor.) This was about 2737B. C. Shen had bad digestion. So he drank several cups of hot water daily. One day something happened. Leaves from a wild tea tree fell into the hot water pot. The next cup was poured. The water was now colored. Shen sipped it. He liked it. He drank it all. Shen was proud of his new drink. He served it to his guests. Word spread. People thought this way. Tea is good enough for the Emperor. So it must be good enough for the people. Tea became the drink of China. 51.The best title for this passage should be ________. A.Black Tea B.Tea Plant C.About Tea D.Tea Bag 52.One difference between green tea and black tea is that green tea ________. A.must be pruned B.has a better taste C.is fermented D.is much healthier 53.What does the underlined word “retains” mean? A.Keeps. B.Makes. C.Produces. D.Loses. 54.We can learn from this passage that ________. A.tea bag was invented by a merchant B.tea is better than any other drink C.tea is popular in many countries D.tea only grows in warm climates C Geography is the study of Earth and its climates. Scientists use it to study global(全球的) warming and track(跟踪) the weather. Governments use it to learn where people live and work and to plan what to do with the land. It is now easier than ever to use geography because of a science called space technology. The United States launched its first satellite in 1958. Some space missions(使命) that followed were geographical studies. In fact, earth science is a big part of the work of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA). Astronauts looked out of the space shuttle(航天飞机). They decided to take photographs of Earth from their vantage point. Over the years, picture quality improved. Shuttle photography now shows land features, such as rivers. It can even show the streets of large cities. Photos of the same places at different times show how the land is changing. NASA does not use just photographs, though. In 1958 it launched TIROS(the Television 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 94 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Infrared Observation Satellite). This first use of a satellite to study Earth was effective(有效的) in giving weather forecasts. It led to the creation of new space tools to use in geography. The Landsat Program began in 1972. This satellite sent detailed(细致的) views of Earth from space. The pictures were so precise(精确) that scientists could count the number and kinds of crops in a field. Landsat showed where Earth’s surface had faults along which earthquakes might happen. This information helped in the planning of new cities and factories. Landsat also made discoveries. In Antarctica it located ranges of unknown mountains. It pinpointed small lakes in Virginia that were not on maps. Landsat, now more advanced, still flies today. Another space tool is Earth Observing-1(EO-1). This spacecraft flies right behind Landsat. It takes pictures of the same sites. The two sets of pictures, viewed together, show how cities grow and how other places, such as rain forests, become smaller over time. This helps scientists learn how people affect(影响) geography. One of the newest space tools is the Geographical Information Systems (GIS). GIS is computer software that helps scientists to study Earth. GIS is different from earlier space tools. Businesses, schools, and even average people—not just the government—can use it to show them how changes in the planet might affect them. 55.Why do governments study geography according to the passage? A.To improve the environment. B.To make the land use plan. C.To make new discoveries. D.To count the crops in a field. 56.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A.The U.S. satellite program began in 1972. B.Landsat was able to take pictures of other planets. C.TIROS was successful in giving weather forecasts. D.GIS can only be used by the government. 57.EO-1 takes photographs of the same places as Landsat because ________. A.the two groups of pictures can show the changes of Earth B.EO-1 is practicing for future photography missions C.Landsat is out of date and new pictures are needed D.Landsat can’t send detailed views of Earth from space 58.From the passage, we can infer that ________. A.GIS is the newest computer to study Earth B.NASA only depends on photos to study Earth C.satellite pictures can give more detailed imformations D.recent U.S. satellites are as advanced as the old ones 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 50 分) 一、听独白,按要求完成下面的听力任务(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的独白内容和表格中的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在答题卡的位置 上。独白读两遍。 Our Class Number of students 59 All students like 60 Number of subjects 61 Programs in the party 62 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 95 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 二、根据中文意思完成句子(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 63.12 点半了,该吃午饭了。 It’s half past twelve.________________ lunch. 64.我这周很忙,下周二怎么样?

These comforts have something in common: they all need energy to work. Energy has many different forms. One form, electricity, comes mostly from steam-powered generators(蒸汽发电机). Steam is made by burning coal, oil, or natural gas. Gasoline(汽油) is another form of energy. Gasoline is made from oil. Oil has many other uses. Paints, fertilizers, and plastics are made from it. We even use it to heat buildings. Coal, oil, and gas are natural resources(资源). We take them from nature to make our lives easier. We can classify(分类) natural resources as either renewable or nonrenewable. Coal, oil, and gas are nonrenewable. They take millions of years to form. Some scientists predict that we will run out of oil and gas in 50 to 100 years. Coal is more plentiful. So it may last for hundreds of years. Resources such as wood and water are renewable. They can be grown or recycled naturally. They can, however, become limited from overuse. We have developed some alternate(替代的) sources of energy. But these sources have disadvantages. For example, hydroelectric power, or energy from running water, affects the ecology(生态) of surrounding areas. Nuclear power(核电), another alternate source, presents the threat(威胁) of nuclear accidents. There are also problems related to the storage(储存) of nuclear wastes. Solar and wind energies aren’t consistent. We can’t depend on them. Geothermal 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 96 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 energy, caused by heat from inside the earth, is tapped by drawing steam and hot water from pools and geysers. This energy source, like most others, isn’t fully developed. It’s time to get serious about energy. We must find practical, alternate energy sources. If we wait too long, it will be too late. We will run out of coal, oil, and natural gas. Then we won’t have the resources to make alternate energy sources. 75.Does oil have many uses? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.How long may coal last according to the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.Why are wood and water renewable resources? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.What can be problems with nuclear power.? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.What’s the main idea of the passage?. ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 根据中文提示和英文书信内容,写一封意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的回信。 (信 中不能出现真实姓名或校名) 英国学生 TONY 在 DIARY 网站上发了一个帖子。假如你叫 Henry,请根据其内容做出 回复。要针对他的问题谈谈你的看法,同时提出一些建议。 Dear Diary, I’m a 14-year-old boy, and in the eighth grade.

My belief began when I was just a kid. I 35 becoming a doctor. My mother was a servant. Through her work, she found that 36 people spent a lot more time reading than they 37 watching television. She told my brother and me to watch only two to three pre-selected TV programs during the week. In our free time, we had to read two books from the Detroit Public Library and 38 written book reports to her. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a trick because my mother was uneducated. When I entered high school, I was an A-student, but not for 39 . I wanted the brightly coloured clothes and I wanted to hang out with the guys. I went from being an A-student to a 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 100 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home after 40 her various jobs and I complained about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, “Okay, I’ll give you all the money I 41 this week by scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy the family food and pay the bills. With everything paid off, you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want.” I was very 42 with that arrangement but once I got through allocating(分配)money, there was 43 left. I realized my mother was a great woman to be able to keep a roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, let alone buy clothes. I also realized that immediate satisfaction wasn’t going to get me anywhere. Success required intellectual preparation. I went back to my 44 and became an A-student again, and at last I 45 my dream and I became a doctor.

Cherie Blair, the wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair, said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school? Japan High schools have canteens, which serve everything from noodles to rice, but not burgers and chips. Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles and vegetables. Students take home a menu for the coming month containing notes on nutrition(营养) value. Twice a year parents are invited to have a taste of the food. The class with the fewest leftovers(剩饭) at the end of the month receives a prize. The United States 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 102 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 A typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary allowances(定量) of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium , and calories(卡路里). Australia Meat pies, sausage rolls and hotdogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the nation pays more attention to children’s health, healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus. Many schools have used a traffic light system. The sale of red-labelled foods, including pastries, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Healthier green-labelled foods such as sushi, sandwiches, corn and watermelon, however, are served every day. In some schools, students have a choice of up to 89 foods to choose from, including popcorn and rice. South Africa Most of South Africa’s schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30 p.m. and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches. Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children. But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition. Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge with vegetables, such as cabbages, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes. 51.What does the underlined word “obesity” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Allowances. B.Sadness. C.Nutrition. D.Overweight. 52.We can infer from the passage that ________. A.a typical menu from a US school is made up of enough nutrition B.most students in South Africa eat their lunches at home C.many schools in Australia have traffic lights outside their schools D.you can have whatever you like in school canteens in Japan 53.What is the main idea of the passage? A.Food served in the US is the best of all. B.Schools should try to satisfy the needs of students. C.Schools serve different foods from country to country. D.School children all over the world dislike their school food. 54.Who is the article meant for? A.School lunch suppliers. B.Headmasters. C.Students. D.Nutritionists. C Jeanne Calment took up skating at age 85, made her first movie appearance at age 114, and held a concert in the neighborhood on her 121st birthday. When it comes to long life, Jeanne Calment is the world’s recordholder. She lived to the ripe old age of 122. So is 122 the upper limit(限制) to the human life span(寿命)? If scientists come up with some sort of pill or diet that would slow aging, could we possibly make it to 150—or beyond? 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 103 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Researchers don’t entirely agree on the answers. “Calment lived to 122, so it wouldn’t surprise me if someone alive today reaches 130 or 135,” says Jerry Shay at the University of Texas. Steve Austad at the University of Texas agrees. “People can live longer than we think,” he says. “Experts used to say that humans couldn’t live past 110. When Calment blew past that age, they raised the number to 120. So why can’t we go higher?” The trouble with guessing how old people can live to be is that it’s all just guessing. “Anyone can make up a number,” says Rich Miller at the University of Michigan. “Usually the scientist who picks the highest number gets his name in Time magazine.” Won’t new anti-aging techniques keep us alive for centuries? Any cure, says Miller, for aging would probably keep most of us living until about 120. Researchers are working on treatments that make the life span of mice longer by 50 percent at most. So, if the average (平 均) human life span is about 80 years, says Miller, “adding another 50 percent would get you to 120.” So what can we learn from this little disagreement among the researchers? That life span is flexible(有弹性的) , but there is a limit, says George Martin of the University of Washington. “We can get flies to live 50 percent longer,” he says. “But a fly’s never going to live 150 years.” Of course, if you became a new species(物种), one that ages at a slower speed, that would be a different story, he adds. Does Martin really believe that humans could evolve(进化) their way to longer life? “It’s pretty cool to think about.” He says with a smile. 55.What does the story of Jeanne Calment prove to us? ________ A.People can live to 122. B.Old people are creative. C.Women are sporty at 85. D.Women live longer than men. 56.According to Steve Austad at the University of Texas, ________. A.the average human life span could be 110 B.scientists cannot find ways to slow aging C.few people can expect to live to over 150 D.experts aren’t sure how long one can live 57.Who thinks that a scientist will become famous if he makes the wildest guess at longevity? A.Jerry Shay. B.Steve Austad. C.Rich Miller. D.George Martin. 58.What can we infer from the last three paragraphs? ________ A.Most of us could be good at sports even at 120. B.The average human life span cannot be doubled. C.Scientists believe mice are aging at a slower speed than before. D.New techniques could be used to change flies into a new species. 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听对话,记录关键信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的对话内容和表格中的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在下面的表格 中。对话读两遍。 Information Sheet The witness’s(目击者)name: 1._______________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 Date:2.Monday,_______________ Place:3._______________ The course(经过)of the accident: 4.______________________________ 得分 104 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 得分 得分 得分 二、完成句子(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 根据中文意思完成句子。 5.多好的天气啊!去“鸟巢”怎么样?

But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street? Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction,but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 105 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it.Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it. “Children as young as seven have the ability to find theirway around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.” Jim Martland also says that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions: ●If you are using a map, turn it so it connects with the way you are facing. ●If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route. ●Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks to help you. Now you need never get lost again! 17.Could some people find their way across the Sahara without a map? 得分 _______________________________________________________ 18.When do we get a sense of direction according to the passage? _______________________________________________________ 得分 19.Why don’t some people have the sense of direction? _______________________________________________________ 得分 20.What does the underlined word “landmarks” mean in English? _______________________________________________________ 得分 21.What does the passage mainly talk about? 得分 _______________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 根据中文提示和英文内容,写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。 22.假如你叫 John。今天你在网上看到了下面的帖子。请根据帖子内容,谈谈你的经历或 看法,并针对作者的困惑提出一些建议(不少于三条)。 注意:不要写出真实校名和姓名。 Post: What shall I do?

When she was a teenager, she dreamed of going to the United States. Most of what she knew about American 35 was from the textbooks she had read. “I had a 36 in mind: Daddy watching TV in the living room, Mummy baking cakes and their teenage daughter off to the cinema with her boyfriend.” Atsuko 37 to attend college in California. When she arrived, however, she found it was not her 38 world. “People had difficulty in doing something and often seemed uneasy,”she said. “I felt very lonely.” One of her hardest 39 was physical education. “We played volleyball,” she said. “The other students were good at it, but I wasn’t.” One afternoon,the instructor asked Atsuko to 40 the ball to her teammates so they could knock it 41 the net. No problem for most people, but it frightened Atsuko. She was afraid of losing face 42 she failed. A young man on her team realised what she was going through. “He walked up to me and said, ‘Come on. You can do that.’” “You will never understand how those words of 43 made me feel... Four words: You can do that. I felt like crying with happiness.” She made it through the class. Perhaps she thanked the young man;she is not 44 . Six years has passed. Atsuko is back in her country, working as a salesclerk. “I have never forgotten the words,” she said. “When things are not going so well, I think of them.” She is sure the young man had no idea how much his kindness 45 to her. “He probably 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 110 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 doesn’t even remember it,” she said.

C.Climbing and skating. D.Basketball and badminton. B If you stay in an Indian home, bring something from your home country as a gift.Although it is not expected, it would be much pleasant. But find out the social position and religion of your hosts before you choose the gift. A bottle of foreign whisky would be the perfect gift for some, but not at all suitable for others. If you know the people you are going to stay with, it is a good idea to ask them what they would like.Some things are just not available in India. It is not necessary to bring a gift when you are invited to dinner. After all, you are the honored guest. Several years ago, it was almost unpleasant to bring sweets or a bottle of wine. But this is not true today. Nowadays it is a custom which is becoming popular with many Indians. Fruit, flowers or a box of sweets are perfect gifts, and will make no one unhappy. In all classes of society, both in the city and in the country, food is only taken to the mouth with the right hand. This is the most important part of the etiquette(礼节)of eating in India. When you watch Indians eat something, you will see that they keep their left hands on their legs. If you want to find a conversation topic in India, talk about families. Another useful subject to start with is cricket(板球). But once you get to know a person better,any topic is acceptable. Indians love to talk about politics and religion. They enjoy heated discussions. Conversation is an art form and people take the time to really talk. 51.If you are invited for a meal at an Indian home, ________. A.you should offer to pay for the food B.you will hurt your hosts if you take anything C.it is fashionable to take flowers or sweets D.it is traditional to take whisky 52.Indians love interesting topics and they ________. A.only talk about family matters B.prefer to have heated discussions C.don’t like talking about themselves D.get away from religion and politics 53.The underlined part in the first paragraph means ________. A.you can buy these things easily in India B.they don’t make these things in India C.they never avoid these things in India D.you can’t get these things in India 54.According to the passage, all of the following are true except that ________. A.your choice of gift will depend on who your hosts are B.playing cricket with left hand is popular in India C.Indians normally use their right hands for food they eat D.Indians like to talk about serious things with guests C When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 112 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 computer, the TV or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual, because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology. Point 1.The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist (存在), would she have anything to talk about? Point 2.The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue. Point 3.The mobile removes our secrets. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went. Point 4.The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near, but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks !” Point 5.The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers at the same time on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldn’t know what to talk about). We can talk across the world.We can even talk to astronauts while they’re spacewalking. And, with the phone line connected with the computer, we can access(进 入) the Intemet, the biggest library on Earth. 55.How do you understand Point 1— “The telephone creates the need to communicate”? A.People don’t communicate without telephone. B.People communicate because of the creating of the telephone. C.People communicate more since telephone has been created. D.People communicate more because of more traffic. 56.Which of the following best shows people’s attitude towards mobile phones? A.Mobile phones can help to save people’s lives. B.Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged. C.Mobile phones bring convenience (便利)as well as few secrets to people. D.Mobile phones can be used to talk to astronauts while they’re spacewalking. 57.Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people’s life? A.Point 3 and Ponit 4. B.Point 4 and Point 5. C.Point 1 and Point 3. D.Point 2 and Point 5. 58.The best title for the passage would be ________.

My school is not 68 , but it’s very beautiful. There is a broad road in the center of the school. On both sides of the road, there are many green trees and beautiful flowers. On the left of the road, there 69 two teaching buildings and a meeting hall. Teachers often 70 together in the meeting hall every Monday afternoon. There are about 24 classrooms in our school, including two computer rooms and an Art room. We like computer studies very much. We can surf the Internet and play computer games, and sometimes we write emails to each other. On the right of the road, there is a 71 . There are many kinds of books in the library.

The life in my school is 74 and interesting. The teachers are kindly; the students are lovely and friendly. I like studying in my school. I love my school. I think you’ll like it, too. 四、阅读与表达(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读短文,根据其内容回答问题。 The computer makes doing schoolwork easier for me than it was for my mom and dad. For example, when writing book reports and stories, I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after my teacher edits my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing. And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time. For English class, We’re reading The Outsiders, by S. E. Hinton. As a prereading assignment(作业), my teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Internet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and finally found an article on Time. com. For a geography assignment on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different, what states it runs through, and what kinds of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its economy(经济). For example, the river’s 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 114 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 trade paths,the number of fish caught in it, and the tourists it attracts directly influence Southerners’ jobs and incomes(收入). I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my parents work,getting to the library isn’t always easy. For a big assignment or research project, I used to stay at the library to read, or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Now being able to find the information in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias(百科全书) also save time. Sometimes, I think the computer spoils young people because it’s so easy—at least physically. But computers are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have to use your mind. I prefer using a computer. Easy, fun, and fast. 75.Does the computer make doing schoolwork harder for the writer? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.What does the writer use when he writes book reports and stories? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.How does the writer complete a big assignment or research project? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.What does the underlined word “spoils” mean in English? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.What’s the main idea of this passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 根据中文提示和英文内容,写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。 80.假如你是一所国际学校校办英文杂志的学生编辑。你看了下面这封信后,想写一篇关于 该信的读后感,内容要点包括:你对此事件的看法;解释你的理由并提出你的建议;向 受害者表达尽快康复的祝愿。 (注意:1.不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。2.可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直接 引用原文中的句子) Dear editor, I ’m writing to tell you about food safety. Several days ago ,my neighbor family ate something bad from the market. After the meal, they had stomachaches and brought up what they had eaten. Fortunately, another neighbor passed by and saw the accident and immediately called the ambulance(救护车). It carried them quickly to hospital. After several hours, they were saved. From this all of us have realized the importance of food safety. And I do hope the whole society shall begin doing something to protect people’s life safety.

I did a business course when I was at university and during my four years there, I was active in raising money for charity. I worked on several big charity projects(方案)at university and one year, my team and I managed to raise over $ 200,000 for Oxfam and Asia Hope. I decided to work with Asia Hope because it offers many different kinds of work and it allows people to choose the projects they want to work on. Since my university course was in business, I decided that I would be best at helping the institution to raise money. On joining the Donations and Fundraising Department, I met many people and I learnt a lot in a short time. The work was hard and the hours were long. We had to get to the office by 7:30 every morning and we usually worked until late at night. Asia Hope is quite a new institution; many people have not heard of it yet. Asking people to give money to an institution they have not heard of is hard work, and quite often, people are very unfriendly when I speak to them on the phone. However, there are still some good points about the job. For example, I enjoy going out to meet people, especially important business people. I like talking to them and telling them about the good work done by Asia Hope. I explain how their money is used, and they are usually very kind and give a lot. I am not sure if I will still be doing this ten years from now but what I do know is that I love my work at the moment, and I know that I am doing my bit to help the world. 51.What does Asia Hope do? A.Help children. B.Help businessmen. C.Develop business course. D.Do university research. 52.Why did the writer want to work for Asia Hope? A.Because she liked children very much. B.Because it could improve her business. C.Because she raised money for it at university. D.Because she could choose the projects she wanted. 53.According to the writer, which of the following is the good point about the job? A.She can start work early. B.She can go out to meet people. C.Asia Hope is a new institution. D.She doesn’t have to work for long hours. 54.What can we infer from the passage? A.People are unfriendly to the writer. B.The writer is not happy with her work now. C.The writer may not work for Asia Hope in ten years. D.The writer raised $ 200,000 after the university studies. C In North America if you are 16 or 17, living away from home without money, you may be able to get social assistance under the OW program. This kind of assistance is short-term help for your day-to-day needs. It helps pay for things like food, clothing and medicine. You may have to show that your parents will not let you live at home, or that, it is harmful for 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 120 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 you to live there. The OW worker must be sure that your parents can not or will not take care of you financially(在经济上). You must also be going to school or training program provided by OW (unless a serious medical condition or other problem makes this impossible). Even if you are a single parent of 16 or 17 years old, these requirements are necessary when you ask for this social assistance. If you are under 16 years of age, you are not allowed to get social assistance on your own. Keep in touch with the OW office near where you live. You have the right to ask for the assistance even if you are told that you may not be allowed. An OW worker will plan to meet with you. If possible, take at least one piece of identification(身份证明) to show the worker, and a report that shows you are in school or a training program. The OW worker will probably meet with your parents. If your parents have hurt your body, like head or arms, they should not be visited. Tell the worker that you have reason to fear your parents, and why. If your parents say they are willing to let you live with them, you have to show why this is not a good idea. If you can, get a letter from a social worker explaining why you should not live at home. The OW worker may require a family assessment(评估) before deciding whether you can get the assistance. If you are afraid that meeting with your parents will place you in danger, tell the worker. If you have reason to be afraid, the OW worker may meet you and your parents in different times. If the worker wants to see where you live, you will not get the assistance if you refuse his or her visit. 55.What does the underlined word “assistance” mean in Paragraph 1? A.help B.money C.education D.advice 56.Which of the following might get social assistance from OW program? A.A 15-year-old boy, whose parents never give him money. B.An 18-year-old girl, who left home because her parents drank too much. C.A 17-year-old girl, whose parents won’t let her in because she has a baby. D.A 16-year-old boy, who left home because his parents wanted him to be in school. 57.What can decide if you can get the OW social assistance? A.The bad situation in your family. B.Your family assessment and living place. C.Your medical condition and identification. D.Your school record and fear of your parents. 58.What’s the passage mainly about? A.What is the OW Program. B.Why the social assistance is set. C.Who can get the social assistance. D.What the social assistance is and how to get it. 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听对话,记录关键信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的对话内容和卡片上的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在相应位置上。 (对话读两遍) 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 121 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Jack Smith’s Trip plan Trip time: 59.from ________ to May 10th Where to go: from Houston to Chicago What to do: 60.________ How to go: 61.________ Cost for trip: 62.totally$ ________ 二、语言知识运用(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 根据中文意思完成句子。 63.放学后一块去滑冰怎么样? ________ going skating after school? 64.他和他哥哥一样高。 He is ________ his brother. 65.晚上冷,你最好带上外套。 It’ll be cold in the evening. ________ bring your coat. 66.昨天下午我直到写完作业才回家。 I ________ go home yesterday afternoon ________ I finished my homework. 67.他太虚弱了,让他一直在电脑前工作是不可能的。 He is ________ in front of the computer. 三、阅读理解(共 7 分,每空 1 分) 阅读短文,选词填空。 first,like,English,moved,kind,missed,fast I’m a ten-year-old school boy from Beijing.

If you take the Eurostar, you can leave London Warterloo at 4 o’clock on a Friday afternoon and be in the centre of Paris at 6: 35, in time for dinner. The train also goes to other places, such as Calais, Lille, Disneyworld Paris, and Brussels. One of the most exciting things about Eurostar is that it goes through a tunnel under the sea. This is called the Channel Tunnel, and goes between Folkstone in England and Sangate in France. The tunnel is 31 miles long, and cost $ 21 billion to build. This part of the journey takes about 20 minutes and you don’t really notice what is happening, but some people choose not to travel by 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 122 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 the Eurostar because the idea of it worries them. The tunnel has been made safe enough, however, and there are two other tunnels that people can get out of quickly if there is a fire or an accident. It is also possible to drive through the tunnel, but this takes much longer than the high-speed train. The trains have a top speed of 180 mph(300 kph), and run on special tracks(轨道). These tracks allow the train to go much faster. The trains are very comfortable, just like all the other trains, and you can also buy plenty of food and drink in the restaurant car. There is just one thing that many people might feel a little pity—the train travels so fast, especially on the French side where it speeds up quite a lot. You can’t really see anything out of the window. 75.Does the Eurostar travel between London and Paris? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.How long is the Channel Tunnel? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.How many tunnels are there to help people get out of if there is a fire? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.What makes the Eurostar go faster through the tunnel? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.What’s special about the Eurostar? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 根据中文大意和英文提示词语,写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。所给 英文提示词语供选用。请不要写出你的真实校名和姓名。 80.中学生活是丰富多彩的,尤其是学校里的课外活动,如打篮球,集邮,参加书画、电脑 小组等。你最喜欢哪一项课外活动?活动中你都做什么?说说你的理由和想法。 提示词语:take part in,activity,after class,be interested in,think,important,grow up... 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 123 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 15 2009 年北京市石景山区中考英语二模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 70 分) 听力(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片。每段对话读两遍(共 4 分,每小题 1 分) 1. 2. 3. 4. 二、听对话或独白,根据对话或独白的内容,从下列各题所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中,选 择最佳选项。每段对话或独白读两遍(共 14 分,每小题 1 分) 请听一段对话,回答第 5 小题。 5.What subject does Lucy like best?

B Recycling is one of the best environmental success stories of the late 20th century. Recycling means using things again, and not wasting things like plastic, paper, and glass. It should not just be a popular thing to do—we need to do it. The Japanese are very good at recycling because they live in a very small place with a lot of people in it. They do not want to share that small space with rubbish. But even so, the Tokyo area alone is thought to have three million tons of rubbish right now. In 1996, the United States recycled 57 million tons of rubbish. People used 7,000 recycling programmes—where rubbish is collected and recycled, and recycling centres—where people take things that can be recycled. Recycling also helps to keep the environment clean. In Rockford, a city in Illinois, US, the grovement chooses one house each week and checks its rubbish. If the rubbish does not have any newspaper or metal drink cans(罐,听), then that house gets a prize of at least $ 1,000. In Japan, some cities give children recycled paper in return for collecting newspapers for recycling. In one year Britain recycles: ●1 out of every 3 newspaper. ●1 out of every 4 glass bottles and jars. ●1 out of every 4 shirts, trousers and other types of clothes. ●1 out of every 3 metal drink cans. In China, Hong Kong SAR transported(运送) millions tons of rubbish to the mainland for recycling in 1999. And around 535,000 tons of rubbish were recycled in Hong Kong SAR of China itself. Over half the things we throw away could be recycled. That means we could recycle 10 times as much as we do now. However, recycling needs a lot of planning and special machines. Also, there is not much use for some recycled things. People need to think of more ways to use things they recycle. 51.How many countries are mentioned in the passage? A.2. B.3. C.4. D.5. 52.Where can people get a big prize if they do well in recycling? A.In Hong Kong. B.In Rockford. C.In New York. D.In Tokyo. 53.Which things get recycled most in Britain? A.Cans and newspapers. B.Glass bottles and cans. C.Glasses and clothes. D.Newspapers and clothes. 54.What does the writer think of recycling? A.All recycled things are quite useful. B.Too much paper and glass is recycled. C.Recycling is just a popular thing to do. D.We need to find more ways to use recycled things.

Now this is not considered cool in town and the word “trains-potter” in Britain seems to have some relations with the word “geek” or “nerd”(someone who seems very funny or foolish). But is it fair to think about the trains-potter in that way? First of all, let’s see what train spotting is. It is said that there are some 100,000 train spotters in the UK. Exactly as the word “trains-potting” suggests, they spot trains, that is, they stand in train stations, look at the number of each train that leaves and arrives and write it down. Their real final goal is to have seen every train in the country. Being crazy about railways and trains is not modern and it dates back to 1804. As the number of trains grew and they got faster and faster, so did the interest in them grows. Is this any stranger than people who love cars or dogs? So, what do you need to be a train-spotter? Well, all you really need is a pen or pencil and a notebook to write down the train numbers. Other things you need may include hot tea in a thermos, a camera and some sandwiches for those long afternoons spent on train stations when you don’t want to make yourself unhappy with the railway station food. It’s interesting to note that although the train-spotting has the “bad name”, there have been famous railway lovers in history, such as Alfred Hitchcock, who filmed them often, especially The 39 Steps. There is evidence(证据), too, that being a trains-potter is not necessarily a strange thing in Britain. Just take a look at the US train stations, it should be enough to make you believe that train-spotters there are alive and well. In America, they try to call rail lovers “train-fans” and talk of “train-fanning”. Don’t let this fool you—these people themselves are train spotters and there are a lot of them. Each month, two million pages are visited on the website TrainWeb. org. 55.According to the writer, what is train-spotting? A.Some kind of hobby. B.Some kind of sport. C.A strange research. D.A serious social problem. 56.What do train-spotters usually do? A.They keep a careful record of every train. B.They buy the trains passing in front of them. C.They number each railway line they’ve seen. D.They produce films about trains with cameras. 57.The writer writes this passage to ________. A.introduce some famous train-spotters. B.present a true picture of train-spotting. C.describe the environment in trains-potting. D.encourage readers to do more trains-potting. 58.What can we infer from the passage? A.Train-spotting is a dangerous way of life. B.Train-spotters in the UK always fool people. C.Train-spotting is more acceptable in America. D.Train-spotters are much stranger than car lovers. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 129 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 电话:010-58302509 www.longwenedu.com 50 分) 一、听独白,记录关键信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的独白内容,将所缺的关键信息填写在相应位置上。 (独白读两遍) For your protection 59.You cannot have an open ________ at your campsite. 60.It’s best to keep your ________ locked in your car. 61.Children ________ without a parent or other adults. 62.Call Johnson at ________ if there are some questions. 二、语言知识运用(共 10 分,每题 2 分) 根据中文意思完成句子。 63.十点钟了,该睡觉了。 It’s ten o’clock now. ________ go to bed. 64.你今天看起来很疲惫,怎么了?

However, the real movie capital is Mumbai, in India. Mumbai used to be known as Bombay, and so the film industry there is called “Bollywood”. Bollywood makes twice as many movies each year as Hollywood—more than 800 films a year. The movies from Bollywood are very different from Hollywood movies. For one thing, Bollywood movies are much longer than most Hollywood movies. Most Bollywood movies are more than three hours long, and include singing, dancing, action, adventure and romance(but usually no kissing.) Because Bollywood films have so many different features(特征), this kind of film is sometimes called a “masala” film.(“Masala” is an Indian word for many kinds of features being put together.) Another big difference between Bollywood and Hollywood movies is the way the movies are 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 130 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 made. It takes much longer to make a movie in Hollywood than in Bollywood. In fact, filming may begin on a Bo11ywood movie before the play is even finished. The director and writers can make up the story while the film is being made. Sometimes they will even write the play by hand instead of taking time to type it. Bollywood actors are very popular and some are in high demand(需求). They may act for several films on the same day using the same clothes. Since most Bollywood movies follow the same kind of story, the scenes(布景) and clothes for several films at the same time are not big problems for actors or directors. These help keep the cost of Bollywood movies lower than the cost of Hollywood movies. The normal Bollywood film, with a plan of only two million U. S. dollars, seems very cheap compared to the normal cost of sixty million U. S. dollars for a Hollywood film—thirty times as much! 75.Is Hollywood the real movie capital of the movie world? ___________________________________________________________________________ 76.Which makes more movies each year, Hollywood or Bollywood? ___________________________________________________________________________ 77.Why are Bollywood films sometimes called “masala” films? ___________________________________________________________________________ 78.What helps keep the cost of Bollywood movies much lower? ___________________________________________________________________________ 79.Why are the movies from Bollywood very different from Hollywood movies? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 80.编者按:本期刊出英国中学生 Lucy 的来信,欢迎读者就信中谈到的问题展开讨论。假 设你是第一中学(No.1 Middle School)初三 4 班(Class 4,Grade 3)的刘华,请在来 稿中先简要介绍自己的个人信息,并针对 Lucy 的问题谈谈你的看法,同时提出一些建 议告诉她应该怎么做。来稿不少于 60 词。 Dear Sir.

One day he was handed a piece of paper, a block of wood and four wheels; he was told to go home and 33 them all to “dad”. However, Gilbert’s mom knew that his dad wasn’t good at making things and decided that she would read the 34 and let Gilbert do the work. A few days later the block of wood was turning into a car that Gilbert 35 named“ Blue Lightning”. Then he and his mother went to a car race together. But when they 36 there, Gilbert found that his car was the only one that had not been made by a“ father-son” partnership(合作). The race began. One by one the cars were knocked out until it 37 to the final between Gilbert and Jimmy. Just before the race, Gilbert asked 38 they could stop for a minute so that he could make a wish. After a long minute, Gilbert said that he was 39 . People cheered as the race began. Jimmy stood with his father and watched their car racing down the road while Gilbert was surprised at the great 40 of his car as it rushed over the finishing line less than a second 41 Jimmy’s. Gilbert jumped up and down with 42 . Soon the club manager came over and asked him, “So, Gilbert, your wish was to 43 , right? Oh no, sir,” he replied. “I just wished that I wouldn’t cry if I lost.” Children sometimes 44 adults with unexpected ideas. When Gilbert first saw the other cars, he didn’t cry out, “Not fair! Other children had their fathers’ help!” Gilbert didn’t wish for victory in the race; instead he wished for courage. 33.A.send B.return C.lend D.give 34.A.instructions B.passage C.message D.explanations 35.A.easily B.carefully C.proudly D.kindly 36.A.lived B.got C.met D.passed 37.A.ran B.moved C.came D.rushed 38.A.whether B.why C.when D.where 39.A.sure B.ready C.tired D.sorry 40.A.effort B.energy C.speed D.value 41.A.past B.over C.after D.before 42.A.excitement B.enjoyment C.agreement D.achievement 43.A.change B.break C.leave D.win 44.A.satisfy B.surprise C.please D.encourage 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 134 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 阅读理解(共 22 分) 五、阅读理解(共 22 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读下面的三篇短文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中, 选择最佳选项。 A What does the sign(标识)say? 45.What time does the university park open in March?

That’s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world—and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy. The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr Madan Kataria. “Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing—it’s the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1 300 worldwide. Many doctors are also interested in the effects(效果) of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%. So, what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest—I wasn’t interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha”, while looking at each other. However, our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 135 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Surprisingly, it works!

C Each year Ben is glad when school is closed on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Ben knows that this day honors an important man, but Ben does not feel connected to him. However, the small-world theory (理论)connects Ben to Dr King. Ben’s mom (0)has a close friend, Amy (1). Amy’s uncle, Mark(2), once met and spoke to John Carter(3), the son of President Jimmy Carter(4). Jimmy Carter knew Dr King(5). In a way, Ben is only “five people away” from Martin Luther King Jr. The small-world theory says that everyone in the world is connected through a short chain (链条) of people they know. Another name of this chain is degrees of separation. Each degree is a step that separates a person from someone he or she does not know. There are zero degrees of separation between a person and the people he or she knows directly. This means that there are zero degrees between Ben and his mom. There is one degree of separation when just one person separates someone from a person he or she does not know. Ben knows his mom, but he hasn’t met her close friend Amy. Therefore, Ben is one degree away from Amy. As the chain continues, Amy’s uncle, Mark, is two degrees. John Carter is three degrees, and his father is four degrees. Dr King is five degrees away from Ben. The theory says that there are no more than six degrees of separation between any two people in the world. The small-world theory has a lot to do with math. The theory assumes (假定)that each person knows 100 people. Each one of those 100 people knows 50 different people. Each of those 50 people knows another 50 people, and so on. When someone continues the calculation to six degrees, it is like this: 100×50×50×50×50×50 =31.25×109. This number is greater than 31 billion (a billion = a thousand million).There are over 6 billion people in the world. These numbers show it is possible that six degrees of separation could include everyone in the world. Does the small-world theory work? No one has ever proved it. Maybe the theory just invites people to think a little more about their places in the world. 52.Ben is two degrees away from ________. A.Jimmy Carter B.John Carter C.Amy D.Mark 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 136 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 53.What is the meaning of “degrees of separation” in paragraph 2?

A.How far Ben is away from Dr King. B.How many people one can get to know. C.How people are connected in the world. D.How the degrees of separation are set up. 55.We can learn from the article that ________.

Most of the world’s fresh water is here and the forest plants clean the Earth’s air every day. Chico was born near the Amazon town, Brazil, in 1944 and started working when he was very young. Like the rest of his family, the boy got the money by taking a little rubber from the trees in the forest.(The trees are not hurt when the rubber is taken.)The forest and its people lived together comfortably and peacefully. But some people think too much about themselves and never think about the future. In 1980, the forest was burned to build roads, houses and factories. Chico was angry; he wanted to save the forest! He talked to the government workers, but they didn’t listen to him. They were still clearing the rainforests to make quick, easy money. “Many voices are stronger than one,” he thought, so Chico held group meetings. He discovered that hundreds of people agreed with him. His hope grew. More people came together to try to stop the work of the forest clearers. Large areas of the forest were saved. Later he traveled to many other countries for international help. People soon became very much interested in this brave Brazilian. In the next few years Chico’s name became famous all over the world.

The doctor asked if we had found the tip of Timmy’s finger. He said there was a small chance of 33 it if we could get it to him quickly. Pulling myself out of a daze, I ran back to the bathroom. 34 , it had already turned blue. I knew from the look on the doctor’s face that it was too late. I felt helpless, unable to take the pain away from my little boy. Then a(n) 35 came to me. I whispered in his ear, “Timmy, did you know that lizards grow their tails 36 and little boys can grow their fingers back too?” Timmy’s soft green eyes grew wide with 37 . “They can?” he asked, obviously surprised by the thought. “And 38 ?” I told him,“ Inside your head you have a little voice telling your finger how much you love it and how much you 39 it.” I could see Timmy’s little face focused in deep concentration. Then I continued, “Now just say, grow for me finger, grow. I love you and I need you.” A few days later, Timmy said to me quietly, “I’m talking to my finger every day, 40 it well.” Weeks later, with a joyful burst of 41 , Timmy ran towards me. “See,” he said, “it’s growing back really good!” A year later, Timmy’s finger grew back and became well again just as any finger 42 be. Timmy remains forever in my heart as a constant reminder of the 43 of miracles. He also inspires me to 44 beyond the accepted knowledge of the times, and to remember that all things are possible if you truly believe. 33.A.putting B.saving C.keeping D.losing 34.A.Unfortunately B.Clearly C.Possibly D.Strangely 35.A.plan B.idea C.dream D.answer 36.A.long B.short C.back D.up 37.A.interest B.pleasure C.wonder D.excitement 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 142 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 38.A.how 39.A.thank 40.A.getting 41.A.hope 42.A.should 43.A.chance 44.A.work B.why C.when D.where B.give C.help D.need B.wishing C.making D.knowing B.speed C.energy D.mind B.could C.might D.would B.strength C.importance D.possibility B.look C.reach D.think 阅读理解(共 22 分) 五、阅读理解(共 22 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读下面 A、B、C 三篇短文,根据其内容,从每题所给的四个选项中,选择最佳选项。 (A) 45.If you want to be a tutor, you can call ________.

A.tutor B.musician C.cleaner D.dancer (B) I am an eighth-grade student at Central Middle School. In my three years at the school, I have played soccer, basketball, and baseball. I love sports and really enjoy being part of a team. Playing on our school sports teams has been the best part of middle school for me. I know I’m lucky that I’ve had this opportunity. Some kids have not been so lucky. In fact, many kids who love sports don’t have the chance to play on a school team. That’s because, to make a team, you have to try out. The idea is that kids who are good at sports will do well in tryouts and make the team. But what about the kids 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 143 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 who don’t do well during tryouts? Maybe they are ill that day, or nervous, or are just having a bad day, so they don’t play their best. They don’t make the team, and that is too bad. Also, there are kids who really don’t have the skills to play well. They never make a team, and that isn’t fair either. How will kids ever learn the skills if they don’t have a chance to play? Remember, this is the school and students are here to learn. All kids should have the chance to learn sports skills and teamwork by playing on a school sports team. There are other reasons why every student should have the chance to play sports. Sports are important for good health and fitness. They help kids feel good about themselves and their school. They build friendships among teammates. Coaches are good role models, and students who play team sports learn good sportsmanship. And, most important, team sports are fun! Players have fun playing, and their parents have fun watching and cheering for the team. So, sports bring kids and parents together, too. By now you know how I feel. Every kid who wants to play on a school sports team should have the chance. These teams are for fun and fitness—they’re not professional teams! Let’s change the rules for making a team. Let’s get rid of tryouts. Let’s give every student at Central Middle School the chance to wear a team uniform. 48.How many kinds of sports has the writer played in the three years at school? A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five. 49.The writer believes that tryouts are ________. A.fun B.hard C.useful D.unfair 50.Which of the following is NOT true according to the fourth paragraph? A.Sports bring kids and parents together. B.Sports build friendships among teammates. C.Sports help kids feel good about themselves. D.Sports are fun and make students study better. 51.The writer’s main purpose for writing this article is to ________. A.advise kids not to try out for a school team B.tell about exciting moments on sports fields C.make people believe all kids should play team sports D.share his opinions of playing team sports with readers (C) Ever since we became pen pals, Julien has sent me strange things. Once, she sent her sneeze in a jar.(“I have a cold, can you tell?” she wrote.) Then she sent her fingerprint.(“So you’ll recognize me in a crowd.”) Julien sent me breakfast, all right: cornflakes. Soggy, milky, grainy, crumbly, limp cornflakes scraped from the bottom of her cereal bowl. I lost my appetite, but I read the letter. Dear Caitlin, These cornflakes were so nutritious that I wanted to share this high-fiber, low-so-dium, just-three-calories, balanced breakfast with you. Enjoy, Julien P. S. Next week I’m sending you a sunset. “She’s mistaken,” I told my mom. “No one can send a sunset, not even Julien. It’s 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 144 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 impossible.” “I don’t know,” Mom said. “Julien might find a way. After all, she did send you her sneeze.” A week later I checked the mail and found a box with air holes and the words “FRAGILE—THIS SIDE UP” printed in bold black letters on the top. It was from Julien. I stroked the box with my fingers. It was perfectly dry. I smelled it. It didn’t smell. I held my breath and started opening the package. What if sunbeams spring out and hit me in the face like those fake snakes in a can? I thought. My hands shook as I lifted the last flap and peeked inside. Where in the world was the sunset? All I could find was a letter and a twisty, gray, papery shell. It looked like a submarine. I read the letter. Dear Caitlin , The sunsets at my house are so beautiful that I had to give you a piece. I counted at least five different colors in one yesterday. Can you find more? Hugs and smoochies, Julien I looked again at the gray shell. That’s no sunset, I thought. “You must mean the submarines at your house, Julien,” I said. Without reading the postscript, I laid the letter and the submarine on the kitchen table. Then I left the room to find a pen so that I could cross out “sunset” and write “submarine” above it. When I returned, I stared in shock at the submarine. A creature was oozing out of it! Was it a sea monster? I looked closer. It was a winged creature... an insect... a butterfly. An orange, blue, purple, red, and gold butterfly. It looked like... a sunset! While the sunset opened and closed its wings to dry them, I read Julien’s postscript. It said, “P. S. Next week I’m sending you Japan.” 52.What does the underlined word“ oozing” probably mean? A.Moving. B.Jumping. C.Swimming. D.Flying. 53.What did Julien really want Caitlin to see in the fourth mail? A.The setting sun. B.Colors of a sunset. C.A colorful butterfly. D.A new submarine. 54.We can learn from the passage that Julien was ________. A.strange and clever B.honest and friendly C.creative and giving D.funny and inventive 55.What can be inferred from the passage? A.Caitlin was from Japan and had never seen Julien. B.Caitlin’s mom thought Julien’s gifts were fantastic. C.Caitlin was pleased with the cornflakes that Julien sent. D.Caitlin was expecting another unusual gift from Julien. 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 听力理解(共 8 分) 一、听下面一段独白,记录关键信息。独白读三遍(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的独白内容,填写表格中所缺关键信息。 注:freshman 新生 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 145 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Freshman Connection Morning session Monday—1.________ 8:30-12:30 *Get to know 2.________ *Learn study skills *Study high school math and English Afternoon session Tuesday&Thursday 12:30-3.________ *Go on field trips *Learn about clubs *Play sports *4.________ Deadline:May 18.2008 语言知识运用(共 17 分) 二、根据对话内容,用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空(共 7 分,每空 1 分) good,homework,study,and,party,flower,listen M: What are your plans for the weekend, Gina?

Irfan Essa works at the computer lab there. He has developed a computer system that can look at you and recognize your mood. He calls it the “Expression Recognition System”. Essa says, “We are trying to get computers to act like a human brain. But the human brain is not like one computer, it is like many working together.” In Essa’s system, many computers work together. First, a camera in the bedroom takes a picture of your face. The camera feeds the image to a computer. In the computer’s memory, there are pictures showing how the muscles of your face move when you are in different moods. For example, cheek muscles move in one way when you are happy and smiling and in another way when you are nervous and tense. The computer compares your picture to the face—muscle images stored in its memory. It tries to find the best match. That’s how it figures out your mood! Then the computer sends messages to other computers in the system. If you look happy, a computer may put on lively music. If you look tired and discouraged, a different computer may turn on the TV for you. How could the “Expression Recognition System” help us in important ways? Essa thinks that the system can help us create computers that are better teachers. Many people learn new skills through computer programs. “When I teach, I look at people’s faces,” Essa explains. “If my students look confused, I know they didn’t understand. With this technology, a computer can also know if a student is learning.” Today, this new technology can be found only in labs, but Essa predicts we’ll see it out of the lab in a few years. So get ready. One day, you might walk into a room that will soon become your best friend. 1.Can the new computer system look at you and recognize your mood? ____________________________________________________________________________ 2.What happens first in the bedroom in Essa’s system? ____________________________________________________________________________ 3.Will the computer put on lively music or turn on the TV if you look happy? ____________________________________________________________________________ 4.How does the “Expression Recognition System” make computers better teachers? ____________________________________________________________________________ 5.What will future rooms be like? ____________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 还 记 得 发 生 在 你 身 上 最 难 忘 的 一 次 经 历 吗 ? 某 英 文 报 纸 正 在 以 An Unforgettable Experience 为题进行征文活动。请你写一篇短文,描述一次难忘的经历并谈谈你的感想。 注意:文中不得出现真实的校名和姓名; 词数不少于 60。 参考词语:remember,help,wonderful,feel,think An Unforgettable Experience Everyone has some unforgettable experiences. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 147 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 18 2008 年北京市海淀区中考英语二模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 听力理解(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片。将代表图片的字母填写在相应序号的括号内。 每段对话读两遍(共 6 分,每小题 1 分) 请看第一组的四幅图。听三段对话,完成第 1、2、3 小题。 1.

I don’t want Mrs. Palmquist to be upset with me and I like to get good grades in school. There is a student in our class who never does his homework. His name is Bobby. He 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 151 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 always says that he forgot what to do. None of us understood why he didn’t do his homework. It wasn’t hard and it didn’t take long to complete. The week before our winter break, Mrs. Palmquist gave us homework passes, so we did not have to do homework one night without any trouble. Some of us were surprised when Mrs. Palmquist gave Bobby a homework pass. Why would she give him one? Bobby didn’t do his homework and he was being rewarded(奖励). That wasn’t fair. The next day Bobby didn’t come to school. Mrs. Palmquist told us that Bobby had been very sick. He went to the doctors, but it didn’t help. Then he was put in the hospital so that they could help him get better. We were all very sad. The class decided to help Bobby with his homework problem. During our free time we made Bobby cards. Each card had a special gift inside. Every student gave Bobby his or her homework pass. Mrs. Palmquist had tears in her eyes when she realized what we had done. She told us that she was very proud of our actions and cancelled homework for one week. A few months later, Bobby returned to school. He was better. The doctors helped cure Bobby of his illness. Every day after his return, Bobby completed his homework. He didn’t need our gifts after all. Mrs. Palmquist told us that he used our passes every day when he was sick. I learned a lot in Mrs. Palmquist’s class that year. My mom says I learned more than I realized. Adults sure are funny! 48.The writer does her homework every day ________. A.to give a gift B.to learn from her teacher C.to help Bobby D.to get good grades 49.With the homework passes, the students ________.

A.Bobby didn’t do his homework because of his illness. B.Bobby’s classmates were sad when they knew he was ill. C.Bobby used his own homework passes to get out of trouble. D.Mrs. Palmquist didn’t give her students homework for a week. 51.Which is probably the best title for the passage? A.A Sick Student B.The Special Gift C.A Funny Teacher D.Bobby’s Homework (C) It’s hard to believe how times have changed since the first modern Olympics were held in Athens, Greece, on 6th April 1896. Over one hundred years ago, there was very little reliance (dependence)on modern technology. There were no landing mats(海绵垫), no stopwatches and no photo finishes. In fact, cameras and stopwatches were not used until the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, the USA. Today technology has completely revolutionized(changed) sports. Take sports equipment (装备)for example. Starting blocks are now equipped with electronic pressure sensors(传感器), 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 152 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 which provide exactly correct race time and also help to catch runners who “jump the gun”. As athletes cross the finishing line, special digital cameras can also easily decide the winner. The clays of “dead heats” are gone. Athletes have also benefited(受益) from technological developments. Body-hug-ging suits, which reduce(减少) wind drag, can help cut up to one-tenth of a second from runners’ race times. Top athletes are even provided with tailor-made sports shoes. These shoes are made to fit the athlete exactly—and there are even air compartments in the shoes that can be filled to meet each runner’s individual needs. Technology has also changed the way that many sports are performed. Take one example—the pole vault(撑杆跳). The inclusion of a landing mat obviously made a big difference to the vaulting style(方式)as athletes no longer needed to worry about hurting themselves as they fell. Without these worries, athletes could obviously jump higher. These days, polevaulters do not even need to worry about the crossbar as the uprights are now fitted with light-emitting diodes(LEDs) that measure(测量) how high the athlete vaulted. Technology has even been to the advantage of swimmers.New pools have been designed to reduce wave interference and sports scientists have even developed a new style of swimming that increases buoyancy and reduces drag in the water. The increasing importance of these technological developments has led many sportsmen to suggest that the “Olympic spirit” is being lost in a rush to break records and win medals. Many developing countries say that technology has become too important in sport and that athletes from developing countries that cannot afford such technology are disadvantaged. There are no easy answers but one thing is sure—we cannot turn back time. Technology cannot go backwards. 52.How many pieces of high-tech sports equipment are mentioned in paragraph 2 and 3? A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four. 53.The underlined phrase “dead heats” means “________”. A.sports equipment which was out of date B.runners who jumped the gun while running C.diseases which killed runners in hot weather D.races in which runners finished at the same time 54.What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph? A.LEDs can measure the speed of swimming. B.The pole vault was not quite safe in the past. C.Polevaulters jump higher with landing mats. D.New pools have changed the style of swimming. 55.The purpose of the writer in writing this article is ________. A.to suggest we should keep up with the times B.to show us the future of modern Olympics C.to prove that the athletes have done better D.to introduce high-tech sports equipment 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 听力理解(共 8 分) 一、听下面一段对话,记录关键信息。对话读三遍(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的对话内容,填写表格中所缺的关键信息。 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 153 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Television Survey Personal information Name:×× Age:24 Job:1.________ Television viewing Hours(per week) :2.________ Likes: Sports and action programs.

Only a week later, it saved his life. He was hit by a car while riding home from school in Tucson, Arizona. His bike was broken into pieces in the accident, but Scan was alive. His helmet protected him from serious head injury(负伤). “I used to think helmets were unnecessary. I 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 154 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 thought I would never get hurt,” Scan said. “But it can and will happen to you if you’re not careful.” Scan later spoke before the Tucson City Council about the need of bike-helmet laws. This led to a new Arizona law that requires people under the age of 18 to wear a bike helmet while cycling. Fifteen-year-old Mike Jones of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, knows about safety. Two years ago, he was seriously hurt in a car accident. Mike hurt his head badly when he was thrown from a van. “I don’t know why I didn’t wear a safety belt that day. Now I always wear it,” Mike said. Today, he can still think of that experience. “I used to love sports, but I can’t do them anymore. I can’t risk(冒险) getting another serious injury,” he said. Like Mike, many people around the U.S. are becoming more safety-wise. “Parents can’t watch kids every minute. Kids must know how to be safe. It’s in their control and power,” says Susan Gallagher, director of the Safety Network. New technology is also helping to prevent injuries. More people than ever before use products such as smoke alarms in their homes and seat belts in their cars. Most cyclists know that they should use bike helmets. New laws, such as the bike-helmet law Scan Aiken helped pass, are also making more people use these products. The number of serious injuries caused by car accidents and fires has gone down over the years. Kids are taking action to help prevent injuries. Like Scan Aiken and Mike Jones, they know that safety works. 1.Did the helmet save Scan Aiken’s life? ____________________________________________________________________________ 2.What does the new Arizona law require? ____________________________________________________________________________ 3.Why was Mike Jones seriously hurt in a car accident? ____________________________________________________________________________ 4.What things are mentioned to prevent injuries in the passage? ____________________________________________________________________________ 5.What is the main idea of the passage? ____________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(15 分) 一家英文报纸在开展“合理安排周末体育活动时间”的征文活动。你对你班 40 人作了调 查,结果如下。请你根据图表和提示词语描述调查结果,介绍你个人周末体育活动情况,发 表看法并说明理由。 注意:1.请不要写出真实姓名和校名。 2.词数不少于 60(不包括所给的开头部分) 。 提示词语:play sports,do exercise,practice running,spend,think,because,like...

He was working in the city and. suggested we meet for dinner. But more pleasing and surprising to me was the way we had the dinner. For this time he didn’t spend the whole time giving advice I didn’t 33 . He talked with me. I walked him to the bus station. While we were waiting, he stood against the wall. My father had 34 been a strong and heavy man. Now I saw how thin and weak he was. He then told me something that surprised me. He said he still 35 , inside his head, like a young man, and couldn’t believe he’d passed sixty. “You don’t know, at your age, how fast time goes,” he said. “If I never really talked with you boys as much as I’d have liked to, it was because there was so little time and so much I had to teach you. I just didn’t want you to make all the mistakes I had made. I wanted to 36 you from some of the troubles I had.” I wanted to say, “Thank you, Dad, for telling me that.” I knew at last I was a 37 to my father. We could talk with each other. But I was too 38 by the evening to say how I was feeling. It was the last 39 we ever had. I was in Florida on a business trip when I 40 home. Dad had a stroke(中风)last night, after coming home from work. He’d always said he wanted to work till the day he died. He got his wish.

And are you nervous about the idea of 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 159 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 being at a social situation in another country? Don’t worry—we can help you! You needn’t worry about situations like these if you have good social skills. And they are easy to learn. Here are a few ideas to help you. ◆Learn how to do small talk Small talk is very important and prepares for more serious conversations. Be prepared! Have some low-risk(低风险) conversation openers ready. For example: ●think of a recent news story—not too serious, e. g. a story about a film star or sports star ●think of “safe” things you can ask people’s opinions about—music, sport, films, etc. ●think of topics that you would avoid if you were talking to strangers—and avoid talking about them! That way, you don’t damage your confidence! ◆Develop your listening skills Listening is a skill which most people don’t have, but communication is a two-way process (过程)—it includes speaking and listening. Always remember—you won’t impress(留下印象) people if you talk too much. Here are some ideas to make you a better listener: Do... ●show that you are listening by using encouraging noises and gestures——smiling, nodding, saying “uh-huh” and “OK”, etc. ●keep good eye contact(交流) ●ask for more information to show your interest Don’t... ●look at your watch ●look away from the person who is talking to you ●change the subject ●finish other people’s sentences for them Always remember: Talk to a man about himself and he will speak to you for hours! ◆Learn the rules If you go to a social situation in another country, remember that social rules can be different. In some countries, for example, you have to arrive on time at a party; in other countries, you don’t need to. In most places, you don’t have to take a gift to a party—but find out first! 48.We can encourage the speaker to go on talking by ________. A.saying“ uh-huh” B.avoiding eye contact C.looking at the watch D.changing the subject 49.To develop our listening skills, we’d better ________. A.think of a news story about a sports star B.remember the social rules are different C.look away from the person talking to us D.smile from time to time to show our interest 50.What does the underlined sentence tell you about people? A.Men like to show off through stories. B.People are more interested in topics about themselves. C.Men are good at being good listeners. D.People will speak if they know each other very well. 51.Where might you read a passage like this? 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 160 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 A.In an English teaching book on how to help students talk. B.In a business course on how to make people happy. C.In a book which tells you what to do at social situations. D.In a book which helps you prepare for an opening talk. (C) Fashion always keeps at least one eye on the future. Now scientists are lending a hand, developing tomorrow’s super-powered(超能)clothing such as coats that can recharge(再充电) your MP3 player and make you stronger. For example, electronics could get recharged in the future simply by plugging(插上插座) them into your outer wear, because Australian researchers are designing clothing that can collect energy from a person. The coats would include small things that change vibration energy(动能) from a person’s movements into electricity. High-tech fabrics(纤维品)would carry this energy to batteries(电池). “It will look like an ordinary(common)coat but have super energy,” said Adam Best, an Australian head research scientist. “This kind of technology has important uses for soldiers in the field and could mean they no longer need to carry heavy batteries,’’ Best added. “Above all, they’d be wearing the battery, not carrying it.” Besides helping soldiers, these coats could also have common uses for common people, such as powering radios, mobile phones, MP3 players or medical things. Solar-powered handbags could do the same thing. Thanks to self-cleaning fabrics developed by scientists working for the U. S. Air Force, underwear and sports clothing could go weeks without washing. The general idea of clothes that never get dirty can be found in the 1951 film The Man in the White Suit. The new technology helps keep off water, oil and bacteria(细菌). High-tech fabrics could also help serve as protection. For example, future fabrics could lead to soft helmets(头盔)that turn hard in an accident. Not all the possible fabrics of tomorrow are necessarily high-tech. For example, chicken feathers(羽毛) and other things of the farming industry could get changed into wool-like fabrics or cotton-like ones, helping use fewer fabrics made from oil. Scientific development is also creating wool that doesn’t become bigger or smaller after washing. And future clothing could help soldiers shoulder heavy bags and help people walk. But not all electronic coats have such uses—some might serve as video game players with high technology and the latest fashion joined together perfectly. The world of fashion is set to be taken by high-tech clothing that works as you wear! 52.“This kind of technology” means “________”. A.clothing that makes you stronger B.self-cleaning clothing C.clothing that helps people walk D.self-powered clothing 53.How can high-tech fabrics protect people from danger? A.We will no more get hurt because of heavy batteries. B.High-tech fabrics serve as a kind of protection for soldiers. C.A soft helmet will become strong when you hit into something. D.Future clothing keeps us away from dirty things and bacteria. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 161 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 54.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?

D.The future high-tech clothing will be used only for soldiers. 55.What would be the best title of the passage?

For me, it was the occasion(a time when something happens), a few weeks ago, when I was able to save someone’s life by being in the right place at the right time. I was at the public swimming pool, and I was going to get dressed and go home. Because it was a cool, cloudy afternoon and beginning to get quite late, the pool was almost empty. The life guard was nowhere to be seen, and the only other swimmer was an eight-year-old girl. As I got out of the pool and began to dry myself, the girl dived into the water again. After thirty seconds or more she still didn’t come to the surface, so I began to worry. I ran to the deep end of the pool, where I saw her struggling(挣扎)wildly underwater. I dived in to help her, and found that her long dark hair was caught in the drain(排水管)at the bottom of the pool. I tried to help her get free, but failed—and, of course, she was dying from being under water for too long. I swam to the surface and shouted for help, but there was no one there. Then I noticed an empty Coke bottle on a table near the pool. So I climbed out, smashed (to break) the bottle and dived back into the water with a piece of the broken glass. Using the sharp edges of the glass, I was able to cut through the girl’s hair and set her free. I managed to get her to the surface. She coughed out lots of water before she finally began to breathe normally again. Then the life guard arrived on the scene and checked that the girl was all right and called her parents. When they heard what had happened, they kept thanking me for saving their daughter’s life. I was relieved(松了一口气)that she was OK, and I felt very proud of myself. After all, wouldn’t you have felt the same if you’d been in my place? 17.Were there many people at the public swimming pool at that time? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.What happened to the girl? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.Was the phone call to the girl’s parents made by the life guard or the writer? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.How did the writer save the girl? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What does the writer think of “saving the girl”? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、写作(共 15 分) 根据中英文提示,写出内容完整、意思连贯、符合逻辑的文章。 (词数不少于 60,英文 提示词供选用) 我校正举办题为“迎奥运,作贡献”的英语征文活动。请你根据自己的经历,谈谈你做过 些什么,有何感受,并打算…… 文章开头已给出,不计入总词数。 think, teach English, help, pick up the litter, from now on The 29th Olympic Games are coming soon and we’ll welcome lots of visitors. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 163 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 20 2008 年北京市西城区中考英语二模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 听力部分(18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片。每段对话读两遍(共 6 分,每小题 1 分) 听第一段至第三段对话,完成 1~3 小题。 1.

Not long ago, I had one that l would like to share. I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway 33 we realized we were hungry. Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand-new $ 20 bill. I was so 34 because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on food seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line. 35 I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I 36 I had not handed any money to the cashier(收银员). I had just walked out, and 37 had noticed. I felt terrible. My conscience(良心)opened its mouth and swallowed(吞)me in one big bite. I couldn’t 38 over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and pay for my stolen pizza. I was so upset (不安的) that I 39 to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream for 40 that someone would say, “Hey, Jeff. Why don’t you use the change from the pizza instead of that nice, new $ 20 bill?” I was not so 41 of my cash now. For the next two years, whenever the “pizza thing” came into my mind, I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it...” I have learned two things from this 42 . Maybe I was a fool giving in to my conscience, and being too stupid to have a free pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will 43 you. This goes with the saying, “A coward(懦夫) dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies one.” I was a coward and have felt terrible 44 that at least a thousand times. If I had been a “hero” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice. 33.A.before B.while C.after D.when 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 166 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 34.A.excited B.satisfied C.interested D.relaxed 35.A.Immediately B.Luckily C.Finally D.Easily 36.A.noticed B.thought C.knew D.realized 37.A.nobody B.somebody C.a teammate D.the cashier 38.A.look B.get C.turn D.think 39.A.wanted B.hoped C.refused D.meant 40.A.hope B.surprise C.anger D.fear 41.A.sure B.pleased C.proud D.upset 42.A.experience B.story C.thing D.mistake 43.A.get to B.catch up with C.go away from D.fall behind 44.A.of B.for C.with D.at 四、阅读理解(共 22 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读下面 A、B、C 三篇短文,然后从其后各题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。 (A) Internet Activities About 63% of American adults go online.

A.5 B.10 C.20 D.25 (B) A worldwide food shortage is getting more and more serious for the lives of millions. The period of cheap food is over. In Cameroon, 24 people have been killed in food riots(暴 乱)since February. In the past month, there have been food riots in eight other countries. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 167 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Ban Ki-Moon said that higher food prices risked(冒险)sweeping away progress towards solving poverty(being poor)problems and could harm the world’s growth and safety. WHAT CAUSED THE PRICE RISES? The rise in the price of crops may result from many things. For example, the sudden need of food crops for use in biofuels(生物燃料), in both Europe and the United States. The rice growing land in countries such as the Philippines is being lost to industrialization and urbanization(城市 化), while the growing need for meat and dairy products is leading farmers to give up rice growing. Flooding and cold weather in riceproducing countries have also hit production. WHO IS WORST INFLUENCED? The food price rise hits the poor hardest. Food makes up about 10 to 20 percent of home spending in developed countries, but as much as 60 to 80 percent in developing countries. The World Food Programme has warned that we could be living in a world of food supply imbalances(不平衡)until 2010 at least. WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT? In the short term, farmers in the developed world are likely to be attracted(吸引)by high prices and try to grow more crops. The signs are that Europe’s farmers will grow 13 percent more crops this year. In the developing world, things are less certain, because the poorest in Africa and India have been selling their tools and their animals just to buy food. For the poorest, recovery(恢复)is more difficult and help will be needed. The balance will finally be repaired—nearly half of the world’s possible fanning land is unused. 48.What worldwide problem is the passage talking about? A.There’re food riots in nine countries. B.24 people have been killed since February. C.There’s no enough food for millions of people. D.Industrialization makes people give up rice growing. 49.Which is NOT the cause of food price rises? A.Developed countries need crops for biofuels. B.Urbanization uses more farming land. C.Bad weather makes less food production. D.The farmers don’t like to grow rice. 50.In most Chinese families, ________ percent of the home spending is on food. A.10 B.20 C.30 D.70 51.What can we learn from the passage? A.Europe’s farmers will become much richer because of higher prices. B.The higher food prices may harm the world’s growth and safety. C.The food supply problem will disappear soon in the poorest countries. D.We need buy and store much food for the future at the moment. (C) Around twenty years ago I was living in Seattle and going through hard times. I could not find a satisfying job and I found this especially difficult as I had a lot of experience and a Master’s degree. To my shame I was driving a school bus to make ends meet and living with friends. I had been through five interviews with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 168 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 did not get the job. Later that afternoon, while doing my rounds through a quiet neighborhood I had an internal (inside)wave—like a scream(尖叫)—come up from deep inside me and I thought “Why has my life become so hard?”... Immediately after this internal scream I pulled the bus over to drop off a little girl and as she passed she handed me an earring saying I should keep it in case somebody looked for it. The earring was stamped with words “BE HAPPY”. At first I got angry. Then it hit me. I had been putting all of my energies into what was wrong with my life rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a list of 50 things I was thankful to. At first it was hard, then it got easier. One day I decided to up it to 75. That night there was a phone call for me, asking if I would do a one-day training for 200 hospital workers. I said yes and got the job. My day with the hospital workers went very well. I got a standing welcome and many more days of work. To this day I KNOW that it was because I changed my attitude(态度)to gratitude. By chance, the day after I found the earring the girl asked me if anyone had looked for it. I told her no and she said “I guess it was meant for you then.” I spent the next year doing training workshops all around the Seattle area and then decided to risk everything and go back to Scotland where I had lived before. I closed my one man business and bought a plane ticket. One month later I met my wonderful English wife and best friend of 15 years now. We live in a small beautiful house in Scotland. “THE ONLY ATTITUDE IS GRATITUDE” has been my motto(座右铭) for years now and yes, it completely changed my life. 52.What is the underlined word it in the passage? A.To make a list of things he was thankful to. B.The words“ BE HAPPY”. C.To forget that his life became so hard. D.The special earring the girl gave to the writer. 53.The word gratitude means “being ________”. A.thankful B.open C.careful D.kind 54.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A.The writer made a list of 75 things he was thankful to. B.The writer’s wife has been his best friend for 15 years. C.The writer has lived in Seattle since 20 years ago. D.The writer did the training for 200 hospital workers. 55.What would be the best title for the passage?

Did you know that surfing has 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 170 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 been around for more than 200 years? At first the sport was rougher(粗野的)and harder than it is today. For one thing the early surfboards were heavy. They weighed as much as 150 pounds. A surfer needed great strength(力量) just to get the board from the beach to the water! Also the early suffers didn’t ride standing up. They rode just lying on their stomachs. That was the only way to control the large boards. Those surfers lived in the islands of Polynesia, in the South Pacific. In 1778 the surfers took the sport to Hawaii. There surfing quickly became popular. The beaches and waves of Hawaii are perfect for surfing. In 1907 George Freeth was the first person to ride a wave in the United States. He surfed in Redondo Beach in California. For years the sport of surfing spread slowly. In the 1950s surfing was known as a young people’s sport because mostly young people seemed to enjoy it. In 1961 rules for surfers were written. The surfers themselves, along with some surfboard companies, made up the rules. Today surfers are looked upon as sportsmen. Southern California is still the surfing center of the United States. Thousands of people surf there. Thousands more are fans of famous surfers. Surfing is here to stay. Surfers must still be strong. To surf, a person should be able to swim well, both on top of and under the water. A surfer must also be able to float(漂浮) for a long time. A good suffer must keep his or her eyes open at all times, even underwater. 17.Was surfing an easy sport at first? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.How did the early surfers control the surfboard? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.Why did the sport of surfing quickly become popular in Hawaii? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.Who made up the rules for surfers? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What is the main idea of this passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、写作(共 15 分) 根据中英文提示,写出内容完整、意思连贯、符合逻辑的文章。 (词数不少于 60,英文 提示词供选用) 有些学生不爱吃学校的午饭,常到校外去吃他们所喜欢的食物。但有些食物并不利于他 们的身体健康。“英语角”打算针对这个问题展开讨论。请你准备一篇讨论稿,谈谈你的看法 和建议。 参考词汇:not like,go out of school,be afraid,be back,more delicious,offer _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 171 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 21 2008 年北京市东城区中考英语一模试卷 第 I 卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 第一部分听力(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片,将代表图片的字母填写在相应的序号后的括号 内。每段对话读两遍(共 6 分,每小题 1 分) 请看第一组的四幅图片。听三段对话,回答第 1~3 小题。 ⒈( ) 2.

In it was his dream. But he was too nervous to 33 it. He put the envelope into his 34 and caught the school bus. Eduardo arrived at 35 , walked past his classmates and sat down in the school library. He took a deep breath, drew the envelope out of his pocket and carefully opened it. As he read the words,“ Congratulations... 36 have been accepted,” he was already in tears. He remembered the long hours working in the fields, picking strawberries and beans. During those years, Eduardo was much more than a child 37 . After work every day, his tired friends drank coffee or slept. Eduardo went to the evening school. He studied, read, and wrote poems and short stories. Although he 38 some classes, he became the best student. When he was thirteen, Eduardo 39 one of his dreams—to fly on an airplane for the first time. He wrote a poem that won a prize—a trip to San Francisco. As he flew, he promised himself to become a pilot. He loved to 40 . Even though Eduardo worked to help his family, his father 41 encouraged him to go to school. So, while he worked, he also studied. Many days, he thought it was 42 , too tired to read his books. But his father just smiled and told him he could 43 it. So, now, Eduardo knew his dream of becoming a pilot was not 44 . He knew that it was his father’s dream, too. He would soon become a pilot, flying every day to all the exciting areas in the world. 33.A.open B.know C.answer D.write 34.A.car B.mailbox C.desk D.pocket 35.A.home B.school C.the airport D.the post office 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 174 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 36.A.I 37.A.worker 38.A.watched 39.A.wanted 40.A.fly 41.A.also 42.A.careless 43.A.take 44.A.planned B.we C.you D.they B.writer C.waiter D.pilot B.missed C.took D.left B.found C.realized D.thought B.dream C.study D.work B.still C.sometimes D.always B.hopeless C.uninteresting D.unimportant B.stop C.make D.work B.needed C.done D.lost 第三部分 阅读(22 分) 五、阅读理解(每小题 2 分) 阅读下面的三篇短文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中, 选择最佳选项。 (A) David works for a popular newspaper.

He always took a five-dollar bill with him in his top pocket. He jogged into the park and went to the shop by the lake. He always bought himself a coffee and a hamburger. One day he jogged into the park and another jogger knocked into him. For a few moments he didn’t think about it, then he suddenly thought, “Hey! This man might be a pickpocket!” He felt for his five-dollar bill in his pocket. It wasn’t there! The other man had taken it! He thought, “There is too much crime(犯罪)in New York! I always say honest people must fight crime!” The man was only 30 meters ahead. Brian ran after him, hit him on the shoulder, and said,“ Give me the money!” The man said,“ OK! Just stay cool! Take it easy! Take it easy!” Then the man gave Brian a five-dollar bill. Then the man ran away as fast as he could! Brian felt really good and ran to the shop. He had fought crime. He had got his money back again. He bought himself a coffee and two hamburgers. Then he ran home. His wife was waiting. She was shaking her head. “Oh dear! Oh dear!” she said. “You’ve had a bad morning, haven’t you?” “No! Why?

The Games have become a huge international event. People will come from around the world to watch many athletes from many countries compete to take home the gold. It takes years of work and billions of dollars to prepare for the Olympics. But it hasn’t always been that way. The ancient Olympics The first recorded Olympics, in 776 B. C., were an important religious festival. But they only included athletes from about a dozen cities. Even after 200 years, the ancient Games only included Greek men from about 100 cities around Mediterranean. Unlike today, the ancient Games were always at Olympia, in Greece. Olympic sports have also changed a lot in the last few thousand years. The ancient Games began with just one 192-metre race. In later years, the Games grew to include a total of six sports to test skilled soldiers. These included races where runners wore fighting equipment and the pankration—a violent sport with few rules. The modern Games Even the modern Olympics were once far smaller than they are today. The first of the modern Games, in 1896, once had 241 athletes from 14 countries. Moreover, the early modern Olympics were not an independent event. Until 1908 the Olympics were part of the world’s fair! At the first modem Olympics, there were 43 events from ten sports. Many of the sports from the early modern Games are no longer part of the Olympics. These include the sports of golf and tug of war. There has always been a lot of disagreement over changing Olympic sports. The number of Olympic sports has constantly increased throughout history. At the Beijing Games, athletes will compete in 302 events from 28 sports. Despite all the changes over the years, some ancient sports are still part of the modern Games. These include running, boxing and wrestling. The Olympics continue to grow and change, and they encourage us all to work harder, go faster and be stronger. 52.What is the best title for the passage? A.The History of the Summer Olympics B.The Changes of the Olympic Sports C.The Growing Events of the Olympics D.The Increasing Sports of the Summer Olympics 53.The ancient Olympics were held ________. A.as important religious festivals B.only at Olympia, in Greece C.in 776 B. C. at Olympia, in Greece D.in about 100 cities around Mediterranean 54.Which of the following is NOT true?

Different advice in recent newspapers appears to be against the old “8-a-day” advice we all grew up with. Is it necessary to drink down eight glasses of water daily, or is this already out of date? We’ve heard for years that eight glasses of water daily is necessary for a person to keep healthy. Your weight loss and health depend on it. Drink eight glasses of water daily and see clearer skin, better sleep, and improve eyesight. We’re warned of losing water without at least eight glasses. But, there are some new ideas of examining your daily diet, including what you eat, as well as what you drink. The answer is... you need what you need! If it’s summer, you need more. If you’re exercising, you need more. If you’re a “normal” inactive person, and not exercising more than 15~20 minutes daily, you need no more than four glasses of water daily. Most drinks can be counted as part of your daily water intake. Although the World Health Organization suggests that eight cups, the old “8-a-day” rule is based on studies on people under difficult situations, including soldiers at high altitude and hospitalized patients, what you and I need is different. 17.Is the writer surprised if you don’t know how much water you need? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.What does the old “8-a-day” advice mean? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.Whom is the old “8-a-day” rule for?

It was a street with two rows of about twenty small houses, and there were three lamps on either 34 . The lamp nearest the child’s house could be seen clearly, but the others were almost hidden by the smoke air. A 35 passed the end of the street and its lights showed faintly, but clearly enough to show the smooth skin of a 36 face. The car disappeared as the woman, wrapped up in 37 coat, reached the doorway of the child’s house. She put a key in the lock quickly, pushed the door open and 38 inside, then closed the door without looking round. She began to breathe hard.

She told her father that she would really love to break the world’s long-distance running record for women. Her father did everything to help Patti to realize her dream. He checked the Guiness Book of World Records and found that the farthest any woman had run was 80 miles. He told Patti to make a careful plan. As a freshman(her first year) in high school, she said publicly that she was going to run from Orange County up to San Francisco(nearly 400 miles), and the next year, as a sophomore, she would run to Portland, Oregon(over 1500 miles). As a junior she would run to St. Louis(about 2 000 miles) and as a senior, to the White House(more than 3 000 miles away)! 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 183 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 At the start of her first year in high school in 1975, she and her dad ran the 100 miles from La Palma to San Diego. In that same year, as a freshman, she completed her run to San Francisco wearing a T-shirt that read, “I Love Epileptics.” Her dad ran every mile at her side. Her mom followed them in a motor home in case anything went wrong. In her sophomore year, Patti’s classmates got behind her. They built a giant poster that read, “Run, Patti, Run!” On her way, she fractured(broke)a bone in her foot. A doctor told her she had to stop her run and put a east(铸件) on her foot, but she didn’t listen. The doctor had to wrap her foot up instead of putting it in a cast. She finished the run to Portland, completing her last mile with the head of Oregon. You may have seen the headlines:“ Super Runner, Patti Wilson Ends Marathon for Epilepsy on Her 17th Birthday.” After four months of almost continuous running from the West Coast to the East Coast, Patti arrived in Washington, D. C. and shook the hand of the President of the United States. She told him, “I wanted people to know that epileptics are normal human beings with normal lives.” 48.Patti Wilson completed her run to San Francisco when she was in ________.

A.to run with the governor of Oregon B.to become a super runner of the world C.to shake hands with the President of the United States D.to prove epileptics are normal people with normal lives (C) A new rule for the quick settlement of minor traffic accidents has worked amazingly well in improving traffic in Beijing. Traffic jams have become less since the new rule was started on July, 1.The jam caused by accidents dropped nearly 60 percent from last year. One of the city’s biggest headaches, traffic overcrowding is talked about daily. The local government has done many things trying to solve the problem, including building new roads and crossovers, sending out more policemen and employing assistants to keep the order on the road. But these actions did not result in success. The new rule for minor traffic accident settlement allows car owners to reach an agreement about the responsibility and payment in these accidents, instead of waiting for the police to support their agreements. The agreements are acceptable by the insurance companies. Compared with constructing new roads, this new rule is only a change in traffic accident settlement procedures that does not cost taxpayers any money, but it has greatly lessened traffic jams. This change actually allows all car owners to have the right to deal with the accident as long as there is no serious harm, damage or losses. In this way, the public has now become an active 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 184 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 part in traffic management. The management becomes much better and the traffic is improved. This is an enlightening example. The improvement of traffic depends not only on building new roads, but also on the method, system and detailed deals in the traffic management. 52.What does the underlined word “headaches” probably mean? A.New roads. B.Traffic lights. C.Accidents. D.Problems. 53.What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A.The traffic in Beijing is improving quickly. B.An example is given for better agreement. C.Building new roads depends on road system. D.Management is important in improving traffic. 54.What can we infer(推断)according to the article? A.Car owners can find the answer to traffic problems. B.You must call the police when the accident happens. C.It took a long time to work out a small traffic accident. D.The new rule for the quick settlement is difficult to follow. 55.Which of the following might be the best title of the article?

Some people even go to the rain forests to spend some of their time trying to make friends with the plants and animals there. The scientists are actually hard at work studying the plants that grow in the very top level of a rain forest. Rain forests are one of the richest environments on Earth. They are home to millions of species of plants and animals. The red research raft provides scientists with a platform from which to study life in the treetops. Scientists can even sleep on the raft, so they can stay up in the treetops for days at a time. Rain forests cover only about 6 percent of Earth’s land surface. However, they contain more than half of the plant species on Earth. Many of these plants provide useful medicines to use against human diseases. In fact, about 25 percent of prescription medicines in the United States are based on chemicals from rain forest plants. Scientists think that many new medicines might be developed from plants that are yet to be discovered. Unluckily, rain forests are disappearing. Rain forest trees are being cut down for wood. Huge chunks of the forests are cleared to provide land for farm animals and crops. Scientists haven’t identified all the plants in these forests yet. Some scientists think thousands of kinds of plants that we’ll never even know about are being destroyed each year. 17.Is it difficult for scientists to study the rain forest plants? ___________________________________________________________________________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 186 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 18.Where probably is the red research raft? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.How much of Earth’s land surface do rain forests cover? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.What do many of the rain forest plants mainly provide? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.Do you think that scientists will be able to know all about the rain forest plants?

Realizing his three-year-old brother, Nathaniel, was sleeping in the house, Antonio protected his head with his hands and rushed inside the wooden house. “I was so afraid to see the flames(火焰) on the roof, but when I heard my brother crying, I just closed my eyes and rushed in,” says Dan Boy, who stopped schooling two years ago to look after his younger brothers. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 191 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 He found his brother sitting in the corner of the room, shaking and crying. Nathaniel was disoriented(迷惑的) from the smoke, so Dan Boy caught him with his right hand. “Don’t worry, Kuya(big brother) is here,” Dan Boy said as he protected Nathaniel from the flames with his own body. Just as they reached the front door, Nathaniel stopped. A nail(钉子)had caught his shorts. Flames reached the upper part of the door as Antonio tried to get his brother free. With one last, hard pulling, they ran into the yard as the house was finished. For what he had done, Antonio received a special prize from the government and a university in the city offered to help him go back to school. “I would have done the same if Nathaniel were not my brother, ”says Dan Boy. 48.When did the fire break out? A.In the morning. B.In the afternoon. C.In the evening. D.In the night. 49.Who is the oldest child in the family? A.Antonio. B.Ken. C.Billie. D.Nathaniel. 50.How was Nathaniel after the accident?

(C) As we become richer and richer, we are producing more and more rubbish. The Asian Development Bank(ADB) says that our largest cities produce 760 000 tons of solid waste every day. It predicts(预料) that there will be an increase—to 1.8 million tons—by 2025. It seems too much to deal with. “The growing waste is simply trying to cover our cities,” says Michael Lindfield, a specialist of ADB in Manila. The proper treatment of rubbish is beyond the financial resources(金融资源)of many countries. The World Bank says some governments are spending as much as half of their budgets (预算) dealing with rubbish. And even so, it is common that half of all the waste goes uncollected. Much of the added difficulty is packaging from consumer(消费者)products and the products themselves—all of which need years, even centuries to decompose(化解). Lindfield believes that four of every five products we buy are thrown away after a single use. It all makes the work to deal with solid waste much more expensive. The rubbish is more than just an environmental problem—it also influences national economies(经济) by disturbing the world market, discouraging tourism and slowing down industrial development. Lots of rubbish also influences the look of our cities. As he walks to work from his home in Bangkok every day, Chatchat Mutita, a 36-year-old advertising specialist, must pass a lot of ugly, smelly rubbish that isn’t collected until late at night. He says things get worse when it rains because some yellow water will stream from the rubbish to the sidewalk. The most serious problem is open dumps(垃圾堆), which are more than eyesores. Ground 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 192 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 water is being polluted, explosive(易爆的) gas is being created and disease-beating animals are growing fast. Modern technology can make the problems of open dumps less serious. But Chettiyappan Visvanathan, a professor at the Asian Institute of Technology in Pathumthal, Thailand, believes that there are no engineered facilities(设备) in nine of every ten dumps all over the country. Some countries depend on most solid waste to produce energy, but there’s a growing problem of air pollution. Burning is far more dangerous than open dumps. The ADB says the growing rubbish must be dealt with by the “3Rs” —reducing the waste, reusing things that are being thrown away and recycling materials. 52.What’s the main idea of the passage? A.What our environment looks like. B.How important to clean our cities. C.What a serious problem we have. D.How difficult to remove rubbish. 53.Which of the the following can be the most serious problem rubbish brings to us? A.It causes a lot of difficulty cleaning up our cities. B.It stops our nation economies from developing. C.It makes our environment uglier and dirtier. D.It brings air pollution, water pollution and diseases. 54.What does the underlined sentence mean in the passage? A.Many countries are short of proper methods to deal with rubbish. B.Many countries are not rich enough to deal with rubbish properly. C.Many countries are short of proper resources to deal with rubbish. D.Many countries are not wise enough to deal with rubbish properly. 55.Which of the following is true, according to the passage? A.There are both hope and difficulty in our future. B.It’s impossible for us to make our cities clean. C.We may find some ways but things will be worse.

What would happen if we were shopping online (网上) carelessly? Tony, a 2S-year-old student in Malaysia, decided it was time to give up his old phone and look for a new one on the Internet. Although it was his first time, Tony—like millions of other young people, who spent more and more money shopping online—felt comfortable while doing that. Surfing eBay, the popular website, last March, he found a new phone with a price of $464. The seller, who used the name “Boy”, told Tony in a telephone conversation that he could buy the phone with $ 400. Boy asked Tony to send him $ 200 online first, and then after the phone arrived, the other $ 200 would be given. “I trusted him because he told me I could report to the police if the phone didn’t arrive the next day,” Tony says. On the second day, Tony tried telephoning Boy to ask for the phone, but there was no answer. He called the number 20 more times with no luck. When the phone didn’t arrive on the third day, Tony realized that it was an Internet fraud. “This kind of incidents(事件) are often reported to us,” says Elfren Meneses, the man of the Malaysian police, “But many incidents are not reported because people always feel uncomfortable to come forward.” That was true for Julia, a law student. Although she knew a lot about shopping online, she lost $ 1 000 for a computer that never arrived. “Nobody knew that I had got into such a kind of incidents,” she says. “Since 2000, the number of this kind of stories in Malaysia has more than doubled,” says Elfren Meneses. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 194 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 17.Was it the first time for Tony to do shopping online? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.What did Tony think about shopping online at first? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.What did Tony do immediately after the phone conversation? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.Why didn’t Julia report the incident to the police? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What does the writer mainly want to tell us in this passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 2008 年奥运会即将来临,全国人民都在为奥运会而努力。某家英文杂志特邀你撰稿。 内容包括:你的心情如何?你做了什么有意义的事?奥运会结束后,你打算怎样继续弘扬奥运 精神? 注意事项:1.内容完整、意思连贯、符合逻辑,可适当发挥。 2.英文提示词语供选用,词数不少于 60。 提示词语:Olympic Games,learn a lot,work hard,ready,help,develop _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 195 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 24 2008 年北京市朝阳区中考英语二模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 听力理解(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片,将代表图片的字母填写在相应序号后的括号内。 每段对话读两遍。 (共 6 分,每小题 1 分) 请看第一组的四幅图片,听三段对话,回答第 1~3 小题。 1.

These kids were only five or six years old, but they were playing a real game—two teams, complete with coaches and parents. I didn’t 33 any of them, so I was able to enjoy the game without worrying about winning or losing—I wished the parents and coaches could have done the same. The teams were completely matched. I will 34 call them Team One and Team Two. Nobody scored in the first period, but they didn’t 35 to care. They were having fun. In the second quarter, the Team One coach pulled out what must have been his first team and 36 in the scrubs(替补队员), except his best player who now guarded the goal(球门). The game took a big turn. I guess winning is 37 even when you’re five years old. Because the Team Two coach left his 38 players in, and the Team One scrubs were no match for them. Team Two came around the little kid who was now the Team One goalie(守门员). He was an excellent player, but he was no match for three or four who were also very good. The lonely goalie gave it everything he had, trying to 39 the incoming balls. Team Two scored two goals soon after that. It infuriated(使大怒) the young boy. He shouted and ran. After the fourth goal, the little boy became quite desperate(希望渺茫的) and then he 40 . When the boy went to his knees, I saw the father come and carry him 41 the field, and I heard him say, “Scotty, it doesn’t matter how many times they scored on you. I want you to go back there and finish the game. In my eyes, you are the winner! Go on, now. ”The little kid ran back onto the field, and they scored two more times, but it was 42 Now in all viewers’(观众 的)eyes, he was the winner. When you’re 43 , and you’re getting scored on, and you can’t stop them, even if you are angry—it doesn’t matter to those who love you. In their eyes, so long as you don’t 44 up, you are the winner. And they are always proud of you. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 198 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 33.A.see 34.A.just 35.A.want 36.A.brought 37.A.possible 38.A.best 39.A.keep 40.A.smiled 41.A.over 42.A.OK 43.A.tired 44.A.get B.find C.meet D.know B.also C.still D.again B.like C.seem D.try B.put C.took D.set B.useful C.necessary D.important B.oldest C.cleverest D.healthiest B.stop C.leave D.cut B.laughed C.cried D.shouted B.off C.across D.round B.good C.all D.nothing B.weak C.alone D.angry B.turn C.stand D.give 阅读理解(共 22 分) 五、阅读理解(共 22 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读下面 A、B、C 三篇短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选择最佳选项。 (A) With school back in the new term, here are some suggestions from Oxford Learning for students to pass the exams.

(B) When she turned ten, my daughter decided I was no longer good enough to provide input on anything useful. Then, in high school she took a parenting class. “Mum, I need your idea,” she told me. “What are the skills you need to be a good parent?” 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 199 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 she asked, pencil pointed over her homework. Skills? I’d always thought of parenting as requiring patience, understanding and kindness. And I was pretty sure those were characteristics(性格), not skills. “Hang on, I know this one,” I told her, thinking fast. Looking at the wall calendar(日历), I noted that my next seven days included two appointments(约会), 20 minutes each, three forms to hand in at two different schools and a cover for the pool to pick up. “Organizational(组织的) skills,” I answered. “It also helps if you can drive—and have the ability to be in two places at once.” “Got it,” she said. “What else?” I thought about the school year: school fees(学费), class pictures, running shoes. Not to mention weekly shopping—the bill for which was growing as fast as the kids. “Financial(理财的) skills, ”I said. “You’ll have to plan your money—especially if you end up with two birthdays in one pay period. You must be good at math, too.” “Money and math make sense,” she said. “Anything more?” “You also need a good memory,” I continued. “At any given time, you may remember birthdays, names of people and who likes apples or who can’t stand grape juice.” I talked and talked. My daughter’s pencil moved quickly as she tried to keep up with what I was saying. Her homework finally finished. My daughter told me about a new parenting-skill project(项目). “We’re getting dolls programmed to cry from time to time. We have to keep them with us all the time and take care of them. It’s to show us how hard it is to be a parent.” I thought if students would come up with a doll that throws things around and shouts at the top of its voice, that might give them an idea of the patience, understanding and kindness that parenting requires. 48.The daughter asked her mother for advice because ________. A.she was interested in the topic B.she wanted to be a parent herself C.she was not happy at home D.she had to finish her homework 49.The mother first talked about ________. A.patience B.kindness C.organizational skills D.good memory 50.What did the daughter do with her mother’s words? A.She looked them over strictly. B.She wrote them down carefully. C.She listened to them patiently. D.She thought them over quickly. 51.What did the mother think of the parenting-skill project? A.Excellent. B.Good. C.Not perfect. D.Very bad. (C) Is the world warming up? According to many reports the answer is yes. Eleven of the hottest years since 1850 appeared between 1995 and 2006. Last year, the United Nation’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) reported the earth was about 0.75℃ warmer 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 200 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 than it was in 1850. While this doesn’t sound like a lot, a small difference in average(平均) temperature can make a big difference in climate(气候). During the last Ice Age, the planet was only about five degrees colder than now. It’s all about the speed at which temperatures are changing. In the past, temperatures moved up or down step by step. But in the 20th century, especially since 1976, temperatures have likely risen more quickly than during any century in the last 1 000 years. Warming may bring improved harvests(收获) to northern countries such as Canada and Russia. However, many species(物 种) won’t like these conditions. They begin moving towards cooler places and cause lots of trouble to human world. The IPCC reported that human activity is very likely responsible(负责任的), by increasing the greenhouse effect(效应). Some gases cause the air to take in heat energy. Without the greenhouse effect, the earth’s average temperature would be -18℃ rather than the present comfortable 14.6 degrees. The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide(CO2), water vapor (蒸汽) and some other gases. Burning oil, coal and waste adds to the carbon dioxide, and it has increased 35% since 1850. Many researchers have found that natural forces alone don’t explain the temperature increases over the last 30 to 40 years. Their study shows that as carbon dioxide goes up, temperatures will rise too. But some scientists don’t agree. They think the effect of human produced greenhouse gases is very small compared to the normal changes that the climate causes. When asked whether humans are causing the world warming, Carl Wunsch, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology says, “It seems very likely from what I’ve seen. Is it 100% sure? No. There’s something to do with natural changes. ”Does that mean we should have a“ wait and see” attitude(态度)? Not according to Wunsch. He points out we buy house insurance(保 险) not because we are sure our homes will be on fire, but because it’s a danger we’d rather avoid. 52.The writer’s purpose here is ________. A.to introduce a scientific study B.to report a serious problem C.to teach an important subject D.to describe an unusual fact 53.What’s the earth’s average temperature in 1850? A.0.75℃. B.-18℃. C.14.6℃. D.13.85℃. 54.Which of the following is responsible for the earth’s warming-up? A.Human activities rather than natural changes. B.Natural changes rather than human activities. C.Both human activities and natural changes. D.Neither natural changes nor human activities. 55.What’s the best thing we should do next? A.Wait for new scientific findings. B.Work hard on further study. C.Leave things as they normally are. D.Take more action and talk less. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 201 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 共 50 分) 一、听一段独白,记录关键信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 听下面的一段独白,根据题目要求在相应题号后的横线上记录关键信息。独白读三遍。 (注:生词 manners 礼貌,礼节) Where When What to do In China Visiting a Chinese family 1.________ at the door first.

She “just kept going to see how far I could get by myself.” Six days and 2575 kilometers later, she arrived in Lhasa, the Tibetan capital. Happy and tired, she wrote an article and put it on the Internet after she had a good sleep, talking about her travel experience to Lhasa with photos. As people become richer and richer, new car prices are falling down quickly, and the government builds new ways, many Chinese people think it is enjoyable to have their own cars instead of bicycles. The large number of cars has started a new revolution(革命), changing the life and society just like what happened in America 50 years ago. In Shanghai, more and more cars have appeared on the roads since 2002.At rush hour, a taxi ride from one side of Huangpu River to the other can take more than an hour. Although the 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 202 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 government has done a lot to make the traffic condition better and prevent more traffic accidents from happening, the number of cars on the roads is multiplying(成倍地增加). Private cars have brought about a new class of society, who drive to their offices from large, modern homes in the suburbs(郊区). “I enjoy the drive,” says a big company manager, of the 30-minute-trip to his office in the centre of Shanghai. “I know the cost of driving is much higher than travel by bus,” he said. “But this way, I feel more comfortable and it is much faster.” 17.Did Li Yang go to Lhasa by herself? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.What did Li Yang talk about in her article? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.Who think it is enjoyable to have their own cars according to the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.What is the traffic like in Shanghai now? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What are the disadvantages(缺点)of driving cars in Shanghai? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 根据中英文提示,写出内容完整、意思连贯、符合逻辑的文章。 (词数不少于 60,英文 提示词语供选用) 一家英语俱乐部准备在假期组织同学们去国外举办夏令营,请你就此发表自己的意见。 内容包括:你是否愿意参加本次夏令营,你对夏令营的活动有哪些建议,以及你的理由。 提示词语:be glad,hear the news,would love,take part in,the summer camp(夏令营), hold parties,visit,relax,help _______________________________________________________________________________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 203 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 25 2008 年北京市崇文区中考英语一模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 听力(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片,将代表图片的字母填写在相应序号后的括号内。 每段对话读两遍(共 6 分,每小题 1 分) 请看第一组的四幅图片。听三段对话.回答第 1~3 小题。 1.

Painted fans were drying on the chairs beside Ann. “What are you doing?” Kenji asked. Ann held up a white fan that she had just started to work on. In one corner was a small and beautiful pink flower. “I’m painting fans to sell at the fair on Saturday,” she said. Then she shrugged(耸肩). “But I’m sure no one will buy them.” Kenji picked up one of the finished fans. He smiled. “I think you’re wrong,” he said. “This is beautiful! I agree!” Mr. Sato cried. He had just come into the kitchen. “Your work is lovely, 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 207 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Ann!” Ann smiled at her father’s words. “Thanks, Dad,” she said. “I hope other people think so too.” Two days later Kenji and his friend Nick went to the crafts(手工制作) fair. The school gym was filled with rows and rows of tables. Each hopeful seller had covered a table with hand-made things. There were paintings, jewelry, clay pots and dishes, paperweights, colorful boxes, hats and much more. It took Kenji and Nick some time to find Ann. She was sitting behind her table. There were only a few fans spread out in front of her. Kenji looked puzzled. “Where are the rest of your fans?” he asked. “I sold them!” she said. Kenji smiled at her. He picked up a fan to show his friend. “Oh, that fan is very beautiful!” a woman behind him said. “It is pretty, isn’t it?” Kenji said, handing it to her. “My sister painted it!” he added proudly. “Your sister is quite an artist!” the woman said as she quickly opened her handbag. 48.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “fair” in the passage?

C ORLANDO, FLORIDA—Is it hard for you to get up early and get ready for classes? Some students at Winter Park High School just roll out of bed in their pajamas(睡衣) and go to class in their own bedrooms. Of course, their teachers and classmates do not see them because all their class work is on the computer. The Florida High School, the state’s only online school, has 250 students who are taking classes at home by computer. “I’m a lot more comfortable at home,” says Luke Levesque, a 16-year-old boy who is taking a computer class online. He thinks the school’s computer lab is so noisy that he can’t study well. “Home is much better,” he says. Students in this first online program take classes in algebra(代数), American government, chemistry, computer, economics, and Web-page design. They also have to go to a regular school to attend other classes. When a student is ready to begin a class, he or she turns on the computer, reads the teacher’s 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 208 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 instructions, and begins working on the lesson for the day. What happens if a student has a question for the teacher? Or the teacher wants to say something about the work a student is doing? The student and the teacher talk to each other every day through e-mail or he or she calls the teacher. For example, when Luke opened his daily e-mail from the teacher, it contained(包含) her instructions for the day’s computer lesson. When he finished, he e-mailed the work back to her for grading. Is it easy for students to cheat on tests when they’re working at home? The teachers have already thought about this. They make students take their final exams in person in the classroom. “You see most of the same things online that you see in a regular classroom,” says teacher Linda Hayes. “You get to know the students online.” If this first online program goes well, in three years Florida high school students will be able to take all their classes by computer. When that happens, students will be able to get their high school diplomas(毕业证书) without having to set foot in a classroom. 52.Which of the following is Not true according to the passage? A.The students take some of their classes online. B.The students have to go to their classrooms to take final exams. C.The teacher can correct the students’ work through e-mail. D.The teacher can know the students better online than in a classroom. 53.What does the underlined phrase “in person” mean according to the passage? A.Themselves. B.Online. C.By others. D.Through e-mails. 54.What might happen in three years in Florida? A.Students can take some of their classes online. B.Computers will be widely used by students at school. C.Students will be able to finish their high school education at home. D.Students sometimes have to go to their classrooms to get their diplomas. 55.What’s the passage mainly about? A.Students may cheat when they take exams on computers. B.It’s possible for students to take classes by computer. C.It’s more comfortable to study at home than at school. D.It’s easy for the teachers to give lessons by computer. 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听对话,记录关键信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的对话内容和表格中的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在下面的表格 中。对话读三遍。 Telephone Message Who called:1.____________________________________________ What to do:2.____________________________________________ When:3.at six o’clock Where:4.his home, Washington Street 二、词汇考查(共 7 分,每小题 1 分) 请根据对话内容,选择方框中的单词,用它们的适当形式填在相应的横线上。 big, like, teacher, borrow, can, go, library A: Which school are you in? 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 209 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 B: I’m in No. 6 Middle School.

It is the highest place on the Earth. The climb made Samantha the youngest foreigner to climb the world’s greatest peak. A 15-year-old Sherpa girl from Nepal was the youngest ever to climb the mountain. Samantha reached the top of the 8 844.43-meter mountain with her father. “I was really happy to be there and I was happy to be going down too,” Samantha says. Samantha has climbed the highest peaks in the world with her father. These include Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa when she was 12. Samantha is the youngest person to conquer(征服)all the seven highest peaks of the seven continents(大洲). She broke a 2006 record set by a young British man Rhys Miles Jones, 20 when he did it. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 210 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 “There were a lot of difficult moments.

There was a pair of $ 230 shoes I really wanted. But I could only 33 them through the window because I didn’t have the money for them. I decided to get a part-time job in a store to 34 enough money to buy them. My mother agreed I could take the job, 35 warned: “If your grade starts to 36 because of the job, then maybe you should give it up.” I wasn’t too 37 school, because I am a top student. I could take it. I got that wrong. I usually wake up at 5 am because my mother 38 early for work and I need the ride to school. So even before I took the job, my days were 39 . But work made my life exhausting(筋 疲力尽的). I would walk into school feeling half-dead. I had no 40 left in my body at all. One day I kept nodding off(打瞌睡)in class. Teachers asked 41 I’d gone to bed the night before. I didn’t tell them I’d only got four hours of sleep. I was 42 until one o’clock doing my homework. After school, it was time for work. I was on my feet for five hours. I was sure that I would be able to balance(平衡)school and work. But I feel so 43 these days. I’m beginning to have my doubts. It is wonderful to earn money and spend it on whatever you want. But maybe no pair of $ 230 shoes is worth 44 your education over or your sleep. 33.A.look at B.look for C.put on D.pay for 34.A.work B.take C.find D.make 35.A.so B.but C.and D.or 36.A.drop B.move C.grow D.pass 37.A.busy with B.afraid of C.serious about D.worried about 38.A.arrives B.leaves C.hurries D.starts 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 214 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 39.A.easy 40.A.problem 41.A.how 42.A. up 43.A.great 44.A.changing B.busy C.full D.long B.energy C.money D.spirit B.where C.when D.why B.in C.away D.over B.excited C.tired D.sad B.getting C.taking D.losing 阅读(共 22 分) 五、阅读理解(共 22 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读下面的三篇短文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中, 选择最佳选项。 A Please answer the questions about the prices of the two hotels.

Will it be much better than it is now? And what will we be able to do in 2020 or 30 years’ time? Genetic engineering(基因工程)may help us make the perfect human. Babies may grow up to play basketball like Yao Ming or look like Cecilia Cheung. Also, we may be able to bring the dead back to life. Maybe people will be able to meet and talk with their dead family members. Over the next 20 to 50 years, it will become harder to tell the difference between humans and machines. Perhaps we will be able to make copies of ourselves, so we will appear to be alive long after we are dead. People may be able to find ways of putting the life of a person into a new body. Narobots(纳米机器人)will be important. We will use them when we are sick. For example, when we have a stomachache, we will swallow(吞下)a narobot and it will travel through our stomach, taking a video of what’s happening there. The video will help the doctor heal(治愈)us. In the future, computers may have their feelings. They may be able to think better than us. We may be more and more interested in computers and the Internet, spending all our time in front of computers. Perhaps we will forget our real needs. Perhaps we will become super couch potatoes weighing 250kg! 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 215 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 48.________ may help people make the perfect human.

Every day his restaurants welcome crowds of customers(顾客)all over the world. He studied to be a cook, but he sees now that his success is the result of a lifetime education. When he opened his first restaurant, all of a sudden his schooling knowledge, the history of his family and the ethics(道德准则) of his father came into play. It made him a person who studied and explored(探究) the secret in the food business. Waiter’s learning never stops. He says, “The food business is one where you need to stay on top. Cooks should be trained. You have to keep on studying or you will be left behind. ”So he spends more time in reading. Every time he gets new ideas from the book, he brings them into his work. Walter also has a clear understanding about success. That is he would like to be remembered as a person who is innovative(创新的), who believes in the Italian cooking culture in America. Food is like a bridge connecting to the past, to the family and to the country. He says, “Success to me is not how much money I make, but if at the end of the day I am able to make fifteen or twenty customers happy. I’m a happy man.” 52.The underlined phrase “came into play” means “________”. A.played a role for him B.came into his mind C.gave him much help D.told him how to cook 53.The last paragraph is mainly about ________.

Brazilian football star Ricardo Kaka’s performances make the point well. He is one of the top scorers in the UEFA Champions League(欧洲冠军杯). Kaka helped AC Milan beat Manchester United 3-0. Kaka, in great form, scored a goal. The win took Kaka and AC Milan to the finals of the UEFA cup in 2007. Like many Brazilian football players, Kaka is now world famous. But he is not like most Brazilian players. Most of his pals were once poor. Football made them famous and rich. The 26-year-old Kaka is a different kind of star. He was born to a rich family and enjoyed a comfortable early life. He joined Sao Paulo club at eight and signed as a professional(职业的)player at 15. Three years later, he was the best player in the team. “I plan my career(事业)by setting myself goals,” he explained. “My goals drive me; they are what I fight for.” And his next goal is to help the poor children. “When I was with the national team, we went to play in some of the poorer areas,” he said. “You see children who don’t have enough to eat.” Kaka believes he can do something. Since November 2004, Kaka has been an Ambassador (大使) Against Hunger for the UN World Food Program. 17.How old is Kaka? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.Was Kaka born to a rich family or a poor family? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.Was Kaka the best player in his team when he was 18? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.What is Kaka’s next goal? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What’s Kaka like according to the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 根据中文大意和英文提示词语,写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。所给 英文提示词语供选用。不能出现自己的真实姓名。 英文报的 Aunt Lisa 栏目是专门帮助学生解决问题的栏目。假如你是王力,现在给 Aunt Lisa 写一封信,按要点提示,谈出你的问题和烦恼并寻求帮助。信的开头已给出。 要点提示:在校乐队拉小提琴 没时间做作业 如继续下去考试会不及格 请求帮助 play, the violin, band, practise, four times a week, teacher, warn, keep, pass Dear Aunt Lisa, I have a problem now. ________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 218 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 219 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 27 2008 年北京市宣武区中考英语一模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 第一部分 听力(共 18 分) 一、听对话,选择与对话内容相符的图片,将代表图片的字母填写在相应序号后的括号内。 每段对话读两遍(共 6 分,每小题 1 分) 请看第一组的四幅图片。听三段对话,回答第 1~3 小题。 1.

I volunteered about thirty to forty hours a week during the summer. Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any 33 , and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there 34 his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he replied to me with only a very gentle moving of his fingers. Mr. Gillespie was still in a coma(昏迷). I left for a week to vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr.Gillespie was 35 I didn’t have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year. Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a 36 face. When I realized who it was, my eyes were filled with 37 He was alive! I asked him if his name was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an 38 look on his face, he replied, “Yes.” I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking with him in the hospital. With tears in his eyes, he gave me the warmest hug (拥抱)I had 39 received. He began to tell me how, as he 40 there comatose, he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel, not a person, who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had kept him 41 . Then he told me about his 42 and what happened to him to put him in the coma.

A.a travel guide B.a Chinese newspaper C.a Chinese report D.a magazine on shopping (B) Fish have ears. Really. They’re quite small and have no opening to the outside world carrying sound through the body. For the past seven years, Simon Thorrold, a university professor, has been examining fish ears, small round ear bones called otoliths(耳石). As fish grow, so do their otoliths. Each day, their otoliths get a ring of calcium carbonate(碳 酸钙). By looking through a microscope and counting these rings, Thorrold can tell the exact age of a young fish. As a fish gets older, its otoliths no longer get daily rings. Instead, they get yearly rings, which can also be counted, giving information about the fish’s age, just like the growth rings of a tree. Ring counting is nothing new to fish scientists. But Thorrold has turned to a new field. They’re examining the chemical elements(元素) of each otolith ring. The daily ring gives us the time, but chemistry tells us about the environment in which the fish swam on any given day. These elements tell us about the chemistry of the water that the fish was in. It also says something about water temperature, which decides how much of these elements will get together within each otolith ring. Thorrold can tell, for example, if a fish spent time in the open ocean before entering the less salty water of coastal areas. He can basically tell where fish are spending their time at any given stage of history. The Atlantic croaker is a popular saltwater food fish. Thorrold and his assistant have successfully followed the traveling of young fish from mid-ocean to the coast, a journey of many hundreds of miles. Of course, this is important to managers in the fish industry because they know nearly nothing about the whereabouts(行踪) of the young fish for most food fish in the ocean. Eager to learn about his technology, fish scientists are now lending Thorrold their ears. 49.Why does thewriter compare the fish to trees? A.Trees get a growth ring each day. B.Trees also have otoliths. C.Their growth rings are very small. D.They both have growth rings. 50.Why is it important to study the chemistry elements of otolith rings? A.The elements of the otoliths can tell the history of the sea. B.Chemical elements of the otoliths can tell how fast fish can swim. C.We can know more about fish and their living environment. D.Scientists can know exactly how old a fish is. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 224 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 51.How can you understand “fish scientists are now lending Thorrold their ears”? A.They want to know where they can find fish ears. B.They lend their fish to Thorrold for chemical studies. C.They are very interested in Thorrold’s research findings. D.They wonder if Thorrold can find growth rings from their ears. (C) LONDON—A morning’s train rides away, across the Channel. English kids talk about Liverpool’s soccer team in a Paris pub. Some Parisians have even started to go to work in London. In the 19th century, Charles Dickens compared the two great rival cities, London and Paris, in A Tale of Two Cities( 《双城记》 ). These days, it might be A Tale of One City. These days Parisians probably smile in sympathy at a visitor’s broken French and reply in polite English. As it became harder to find jobs at home over recent years, perhaps 250 000 Frenchmen moved across the Channel. With an undersea tunnel, they could travel between cities in three hours. The European Union freed them from immigration and customs. Paris, rich in beauty, is more attractive. But London feels more full of life, and more fun until the pubs shut down. “For me, the difference is that London is real, alive,” said Trevor Wheeler, a banker. Chantal Jaouen, a professional designer, agrees. “I am French, but I’ll stay in London.” she said. There is, of course, the other view. Julie Lenoux is a student who moved to London two years ago. “I think people laugh more in Paris,” she said. In fact, London and Paris, with their obvious new similarities, are beyond the old descriptions. As the European Union gave them more and more freedom, Londoners flocked into Paris to shop, eat and buy houses. “Both cities have changed beyond recognition,” said Larry Collins, a writer and sometimes a Londoner. Like most people who know both well, he finds the two now fit together comfortably. “I first fell in love with Paris in the 1950s, and it is still a wonderful place,”Collins said. “But ff I had to choose, it would be London, Things are so much more ordered, and life is better.” But certainly not cheaper. In fancy(high price) parts of London, the fee paid for an accommodation can be twice that on Avenue Foch in Paris. Deciding between London and Paris asks for a lifestyle choice. Like Daphne Benoit, a French journalism student with perfect English, many young people are happy to be close enough so they don’t have to choose. “I love Paris, my little neighborhood, the way I can walk around a centre, but life is so structured,” she said. “In London, you can be who you want. No one, cares.” 52.The underlined word “flocked” probably means “________”.

For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant there. We had five children, Matthew, Marvin, Helen and the twins, Alisa and Alan. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden. We didn’t have much money or time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much. I’d have to say, “Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know.” Finally, all five children finished high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking about having a garden again. I wasn’t sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living with very little. Then, one morning in spring, on Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I heard cars outside. I looked out of the window and saw a new tree planted right in my yard. I knew it was a weeping willow(垂柳), because I saw things blowing around on all of its branches (树枝). Then I put my glasses on and I couldn’t believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard! I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped(绑) all over the tree. I could buy many flowers with one hundred dollars. There was also a note: “I still do something for you. Love, Marvin.” Marvin kept his words, too. He dug up a nice flower bed for me. My other children bought me tools, and other things to help me such as gardening books. That was three years ago. My garden is now very pretty. It is just the way I wanted it. When I go out to take care of my flowers, I don’t seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they are right there with me. 17.Did the woman have five children? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.Did the woman want a flower garden or a money tree? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.What did the woman see in her yard on Mother’s Day? 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 227 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.Why did Marvin give his mother a tree with much money in it? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What does the sentences “Do you see a money tree outside?

Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of 33 through which I learned lessons from his experiences. This has largely 34 my life. Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have had enough time to spend together because my father was very 35 . I believe the mountain-climbing is good for us. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep contemplation(沉思)as well as develop my patience. I 36 climbing mountains, to get away from the 37 and pollution of the city, and I could breathe the fresh air. One time we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I 38 the fresh air, the birds’ singing, and the beautiful 39 of nature; but as time passed, I wanted to 40 climbing. Actually, I 41 it at that moment, but my father said to me, “Spring is a season when everything comes to life again. The mountain and the fields where we are standing are embroidered with(被……装 饰) flowers and trees. You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain. Only there 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 231 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 at the top can you 42 all of those things, just like in life.” At that time, I was too 43 to understand his thoughts, but after that, I got new hope and confidence. Finally, I found myself standing at the top of the mountain. And there I could see the whole of my sky, which was as 44 as crystal(水晶). 33.A.conversations B.discussions C.explanations D.arguments 34.A.instructed B.happened C.encouraged D.influenced 35.A.busy B.strange C.special D.lazy 36.A.wished B.loved C.disliked D.supported 37.A.noise B.brightness C.business D.coldness 38.A.smelled B.felt C.touched D.enjoyed 39.A.drawing B.dances C.scenes D.waving 40.A.continue B.stop C.keep D.try 41.A.wanted B.enjoyed C.hated D.lost 42.A.know B.watch C.find D.look 43.A.foolish B.proud C.old D.young 44.A.clean B.clear C.light D.tidy 第三部分 阅读(共 22 分) 五、阅读理解(共 22 分,每小题 2 分) 阅读下面的三篇短文。根据短文内容,从短文后所给的四个选项中,选择最佳选项。 (A) We surveyed 300 young people on what they like to do at weekends. One hundred people are from the ages of 11~18, one hundred 19~26 and one hundred 27~35. The following shows their answers: 45.How many people enjoy playing computer games in the 11~18 group? A.20. B.50. C.60. D.75. 46.The people of 19~26 enjoy ________ most.

B.Playing computer games and taking a walk. C.Watching TV and going to the cinema. D.Going to the cinema and taking a walk. (B) Most people may not think that there are any problems with watermelons, but some Japanese 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 232 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 sellers do. There is often wasted space when they store watermelons because round watermelons do not sit nicely on shelves. So some clever farmers have solved the watermelon problem. They make their watermelons grow in square glass boxes so the watermelons become square. The only problem now is the price. The square watermelons cost about 80 dollars each. Many people know the saying “Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet and so are you”. Well, today the poem needs to change to “Roses are red, roses are blue”! Australian scientists have just recently discovered that when they put a chemical from a blue flower into a rose, they can create a nearly 100% blue rose. Some of scientists’ inventions are beautiful, not just useful! Since the mid-1990s, many Chinese farmers have had amazing rice harvests. For many years Chinese scientists have been working on developing new kinds of stronger rice and now they have produced a new kind, called super rice. Super rice not only can protect itself against insects(昆 虫)and diseases, but it also produces more than any other kind of rice. Today farmers can grow almost one and a half times more rice than they could grow in the past. Doctors might be able to use vegetables to fight cancer(癌) now. The US scientists have discovered a way to put a chemical into tomato plants while they are growing. When cancer patients eat the tomatoes, the tomatoes will fight the cancer in their bodies. These cancer-fighting vegetables are not yet for sale because scientists have not finished testing them. If study finds no problems with the tomatoes, then patients can begin to use this easy and delicious new treatment. 48.The square watermelons look like 49.________ find a way to make blue roses. A.Chinese scientists B.Australian scientists C.American scientists D.Japanese farmers 50.Which of the following is true? A.Super rice can keep itself from insects. B.Blue roses are more beautiful than red ones. C.The tomatoes can fight all kinds of diseases. D.The square watermelons cost less than ordinary ones. 51.This passage mainly tells us ________. A.how scientists discover new plants B.how science makes plants produce more C.how science has changed plants and people’s lives D.how technology makes our world more beautiful (C) You are from a middle-class family, and live in a normal-size home which isn’t very rich, but the consumption(消费)of some of the neighbors is surprising to you.This begins to bother your 6-year-old son, you are worried that he wants to live as they do, and wonder if you should move to another place. Sometimes big pocket money, joyful birthday parties, special playrooms, and super-big houses tell you that your neighbors probably have more money than you do, and that they’re not 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 233 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 as you are with money, but you may find that they cook and dig in the garden with their children just as often as you do, talk with them as freely and read to them every night. Or you may find that some of these parents stay in one wing of their big house while their child plays by himself, way off in a wing of his own. In that unfortunate case, he is basically growing up alone without being looked after properly, but this can happen to a child who lives in a normal-size house, too, if he has a TV, a computer and a few video games in his room. Even the most caring parent doesn’t walk in and out of it to see what show her child is watching, what Internet site he has found and if he’s still playing that video game. Too much uncontrolled screen time may lead to a certain loss of innocence(天真), but mostly this child will lose the sense of unity and satisfaction that comes from being in a family. A neighborhood should also provide you with a sense of unity and satisfaction, and if it doesn’t, you might decide to move. Don’t judge your neighborhood too harshly(严厉地), though. There are some things that are fight with almost any neighborhood and some things that are wrong with the best of them—like those super-big houses. The wealth of their owners—and the way they throw money around—may make your son feel sorry for himself, unless you help him understand that you and his dad save some of the money, give some to people who don’t have enough and use the rest to pay for whatever the family needs. Children want—should be provided with—explanations when their parents don’t give them what they want. 52.What is the problem with the worried parent in the text? A.Her house isn’t as big as her rich neighbors’. B.Her son is left alone without anyone in charge. C.She cannot provide her son with a special playroom. D.She worries about the effect of her neighbors on her son. 53.In paragraphs 2 and 3, the author seems to agree that parents should ________. A.spend more time with their children B.give their children more freedom C.work hard to lead a richer life D.set an example to their children to follow 54.By saying“ throw money around”(paragraph 5), the author means that rich people ________. A.spend money carelessly B.save money for their children C.help the poor people happily D.leave money all round the house 55.What is the main idea the writer aims to express in this passage? A.Children are unfortunate to have poor parents. B.Children should enjoy their comfortable life. C.Children need proper guidance from their parents. D.Children feel ashamed of themselves in a rich neighborhood. 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听短文,按要求完成下面的听力任务(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 请根据所听到的短文内容和表格中的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在下面的表格 中。短文读三遍。 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 234 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Information Sheet Time now:1.________________________________________________ Suggested ways of transportation: 2.__________________________________________________________ Affection(影响)to schools: Some schools in the countryside 3._______________________________.

On the first day of class, he gave us a talk about an animal called “birdcat”, which died out during the Ice Age. He passed around a skull(头骨) as he talked. We all took notes carefully and later we had a test. When he returned my paper the next day, there was a big “X” through each of my answers. I 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 235 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 had failed! There had to be some mistakes! I had written down exactly what Mr. Harris said. Then I learned that everyone in the class had failed. What happened? Very simple, Mr. Harris said. He had made up all that “birdcat”. There had never been any such animal. The information in our notes was, therefore, incorrect. Did you think you would get good marks for incorrect answers? Needless to say, we felt that was unfair. What kind of a test was this? And what kind of a teacher? We should have figured it out, Mr. Harris said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the “birdcat” skull, in truth a cat’s, hadn’t he been telling us no other findings about this animal except the skull? He had told us many unbelievable things about the animal, such as the size, the colour, the strength... but none of us had questioned. Mr. Harris said he hoped we would learn something from this lesson. Teachers and textbooks are not always correct. In fact no one is. He told us not to let our minds go to sleep and to speak up if we ever thought he or the textbook was wrong. Up to now I haven’t made any great scientific discoveries, but Mr. Harris’s class gave me and my classmates something just as important: to look people in the eye and tell them they are wrong. 17.Did Mr. Harris teach fifth-grade science? ___________________________________________________________________________ 18.Did this story happen on the first day or the second day of class? ___________________________________________________________________________ 19.What does “figure it out” mean in English? ___________________________________________________________________________ 20.Why did the writer fail in the science test? ___________________________________________________________________________ 21.What can we learn from this passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 五、书面表达(共 15 分) 根据中文大意和英文提示词语。写出意思连贯、符合逻辑、不少于 60 词的短文。所给 英文提示词语供选用。 假如你是李雷。你想加入你所在学校的“爱心俱乐部(Helping Hands Club)”,请用英 语写一封自荐信,写出你的“爱心”具体表现,并说明为什么要参加。你的想法是什么?

Well, Holly’s someone I grew up with, so I’ve known her for years. W: Yeah, but when we walk around the school together, you seem to know everybody. They can’t all be friends from your childhood. M: No, of course not. I’ve met a lot of people in my classes. And at the beginning of the term, I joined a couple of clubs, so I’ve been meeting a lot of people that way. W: Well, I envy you. But you know, it must be something special about you. I go to my classes and the gym and all that, but I don’t seem to meet a lot of people. I think you’re just a lot more popular than I am.

W: Hmm. That’s really nice of you, Jim, but I get kind of nervous at big parties... 12. Good morning, everyone. I’m Zhang Wei from Happy Community. I’m happy to be here to talk about young volunteers. Here are some suggestions for you. You need to think about your interests first. What kinds of things do you get excited about? Do you love to teach kids, work outdoors, or help people in need? Your interests may help you do volunteer activities better. Then consider your skills. Are you good at something like sports or computers? Most volunteer groups are looking for people with skills and abilities. Try to be active in thinking. With all the choices, you may find a volunteer chance that has never happened to you. Your effort could lead to something surprising. Do research. You’ll be surprised at the numbers of volunteer groups out there. And you can start by asking family and friends about the ones they know, or do some research on the Internet. Then follow up by calling or writing to the groups directly. Oh, here are two more suggestions for you. Don’t be angry if you don’t get the job you want right away. Your first volunteer job may be less than perfect but it can still be a good learning experience. Don’t try to do more work than you can. If you can’t manage the work you volunteer to do, it can be difficult for your group and make you feel uncomfortable. If you want to get more information about young volunteers, you can visit our website: www.youngvolunteers. com. Thank you for listening! Good luck! (第Ⅱ卷 听力) 六、听对话,记录关键信息。 13.W: Hello.

Some people think the 7-day holiday is very important. Firstly, we could have a good rest and refresh ourselves after several months of hard work. Secondly, we could spend more time staying with our family. Thirdly, we will be able to use the one-week vacation to travel to some farther places such as foreign countries. However, other people hold the opposite view. They think it causes a lot of problems. It may lead to traffic jam and visitors will not enjoy themselves if the travelling spots are over-crowded. As a student, I prefer a 7-day holiday. Not only can I sleep well and do exercise, but also I can read some interesting books. How I wish a 7-Day holiday would come soon! 附:听力测试录音稿 Conversation 1 W: What do you want to be when you grow up? M: I want to be a policeman. Conversation 2 W: How did you go to Xinjiang?

M: I think so. 听短文,回答第 15~18 小题。 Hi, here we are back. Let’s talk. Today we are talking about ways to say good-bye. Here are four very common ways of saying good-bye. Those four ways are, “See you later. Take care. Bye. So long.” It’s common in Britain when you say good-bye to someone and also say when you’ll see him next time, unless of course if you work in the same company. For example, if you say “good-bye” to a friend, you’ll often say, “See you in a few days.” Or you might say, “See you 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 242 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 tomorrow.” “See you next week.” or “See you later.” Those are all very common ways of placing a period of time next to your “good-bye”, so it doesn’t seem so final. Now I’d like to ask you, “how do you know when it is polite to leave someone’s house?” It’s not easy. In Japan after dinner you have tea. When they bring tea the second time, then you know it’s time to leave. In America it’s easy because either person can say “I have an early class tomorrow, I need to go now.” Or the host may say “I know you have to be somewhere early tomorrow, so I don’t want to keep you too long.” Or they might even say “I have a tennis lesson, I’ve got to go now.” And both parties are perfectly happy with that. It’s polite. So don’t feel bad if you’re in America or with a foreigner and they say to you “I need to go to bed now, because I have to get up early tomorrow morning.” You shouldn’t feel bad. It’s a just natural way of closing an evening. 请打开第Ⅱ卷,听短文,记录关键信息。 This is Harry Williams and I’ll be with you throughout the night here on FM 1180.

All of them are beautiful and well-known to the world. Great changes have taken place in Beijing since we successfully held the 2008 Olympic Games. People pay more attention to the environment. More trees and flowers have been planted. For the traffic, it is very convenient for people to travel around Beijing because several new subway lines have been built.

Some people believe that one of the first artists to design a Christmas card was John Horsley. In 1843. he was asked to design a Christmas card. These cards were printed in black and white and colored by hand. It is said that about 1,000 of them were sold in London that year. At about the same time,another English artist,William Egley,designed a card and had it printed. He had one hundred of them sent to his friends with the greeting “A Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year”. Soon printing machines began to improve. The new ones were much better than the old ones. and could be printed much more quickly. Printing became much cheaper,and the printers began to sell Christmas cards.

I was sitting out in the garden; reading the Sunday newspaper and expecting a couple of hours of peace and quiet. I heard a bus arriving at the end of the garden, and then I heard a loud knock on the door. I went out, and there were about twelve elderly ladies wearing their best Sunday clothes, looking very happy and friendly. They said, “Well, we’ re sorry. We hope we are not late, but we couldn’t find the house easily, and clearly thought it was the right place to be.” And then one of them said, “Well, your husband was very kind in inviting us to tea.” So I thought, “My God, my husband must have been mad and forgot to tell me.” So I asked them into the house and they sat down and started talking happily. But when my husband appeared, they didn’t speak to him. I thought this was surprising and my husband looked a bit surprised to see them all sitting there. And then we quickly discovered that it was the wrong husband and they were expected at a house on the other side of the street. 请打开第Ⅱ卷,看第一大题听力试题。该试题需要在第Ⅱ卷第一大题的相应位置上作答。 一、听对话,按要求完成下面的听力任务。对话读两遍 请根据所听到的内容和表格中的提示词语,将所缺的关键信息填写在下面的横线上。 M:Hello.

I’m really honoured to be invited here. If you ask me what the key to success is. It is a long story. But there are some keys that we can share this afternoon. First of all, live life “on purpose”. When you live your life on purpose, you will think more of what you do, so there is chance for you to succeed. The second thing is that you should write out a plan. Trying to do anything without an action plan is like driving around the world without a map. The wasted time, energy and money will 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 255 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 cause you to give up. The next is to be ready to pay the price. If you want a big house, or a very expensive car, you have to pay enough money. Successful people find out what it costs to make their dream come true and make it happen. The last one is never to give up. Giving up isn’t even a choice. You must be willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen. Spend as much of your day as you can achieving dreams. Those are only some of the key points you have to keep in mind. The most important I think is to work hard. 7.2009 年北京市东城区中考英语二模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷) 1.B 2.C 3.A 4.B5.B 6.A 7.A 8.A 9.B 10.C 11.C 12.B 13.A 14.C 15.A 16.C 17.C 18.B 19.A 20.A 21.C 22.D 23.D 24.D 25.B 26.B 27.C 28.A 29.D 30.C 31.B 32.A 33.D 34.C 35.C 36.D 37.B 38.A 39.B 40.D 41.A 42.C 43.D 44.B 45.C 46.A 47.C 48.B 49.B 50.D 51.D 52.A 53.B 54.D 55.A 56.C 57.A 58.B 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷) 六、听对话,记录信息 59.Robert 60.Single 61.72 62.watching TV 七、根据中文意思完成句子 63.I am glad(that) 64.asked me for 65.They have already got ready for 66.He kept me waiting 67.Lily not only likes drawing pictures herself but ales spends much time in teaching me how to draw sometimes after school 八、阅读短文,选词填空 68.their 69.health 70.sad 71.hopeful 72.discuss 73.wish 74.and 九、阅读与表达 75.No. 76.Most energy drinks. 77.For young people, students, busy people and sports players. 78.Australian scientists. 79.Because these drinks are bad for health./Most energy drinks have high level caffeine.

Remember to leave them where you find them after you have finished reading. Put everything in good order. You are not expected to talk loudly in here. So keep quiet for others and you will find it a good place to read. As for the open hours,it is open from 7:00 early in the morning to 8:00a. m. And then it is open again during the lunch time from 12:00 to 1 :30 p. m. in the afternoon. The third time it opens is in the afternoon after you finish school. It is from 3:30 p. m. to 5:30 p. m.

I’ve experienced lots of different cultures and people. One thing that I always remember is that I am a guest and not there to change or break any rules. In North America, the gift-giving rules are very simple. If you are invited to one’s home for dinner, bring some flowers or a small gift from your country. Among family and business partners, they don’t give gifts to each other except on someone’s birthday and Christmas. However, the Japanese give gifts quite often, often to thank others, such as a teacher or a doctor for their kindness. And there are many rules for everything from the colour to the time of giving the gift. Europeans don’t generally give business gifts. They do follow some rules when visiting homes, such as bringing flowers. But the colour of flowers, however, can carry special meaning, depending on which European country we are in. So, be careful when you give flowers to Europeans. 第Ⅱ卷 一、听对话,记录关键信息。将所缺的关键信息填写在卡片中的相应位置上。对话读两遍。 W:Hello, Spencer’s Travel Agency. Can I help you?

Now, if you’ve got nothing to do today, why not go to the east part of the city and get to your game. That’s the message from No. 1 Senior High School, which is organizing a tree-planting event near east mountain. No. 1 Senior High School is a member of the environmental group of the city. In order to improve the environment education of its students and get more people organized, the school is planning to plant a total of 1,400 trees provided by the government over the next few days. They are hoping to plant half of them today, and they are looking for the volunteers to come along and help. No experience is necessary as there will be experts to give direction and equipment will be provided, but if you have any tree planting tools, please do bring them along in case a lot of people come and want to start digging at the same time. Everyone is welcome to come along any time between 10 to 4 o’clock. Because yon’ll be working in the mountains, I don’t think you need my advice about what sort of shoes or clothes you have to wear. And of course gloves will be useful to protect your hands if you are actually doing the digging. So it could be really a nice day out for all the families. Enjoy your day. 第Ⅱ卷 一、听对话,记录关键信息 Alice was the witness to an accident. A policeman was interviewing her and asking her some questions. M:What’s your name? W:My name is Alice, A-L-I-C-E.

First, let’s talk about the daily shows. I think the best show is on Channel Six from 6:00 to 7:00 every evening. Johnson has read the news on this show for many years. He and his team always do their difficult job well. The same channel is good for late night watching. At 11:30 every night, Ted talks with famous people on his 90-minute show “Nighttime”. He always has interesting people on. This week, three beautiful movie stars are going to talk about their new films. In the afternoon, only Channel Eleven has a good children’s show, “the Children’ s Room” at 3:30. This show has educational cartoons. They keep children happy and entertained for hours. Channel Three has the best game shows, and then watch this one. They ask interesting questions and give away a lot of money. It’s a good way to learn about the world, too. 第Ⅱ卷 一、听对话,记录关键信息 W:Shall we go to see a movie this weekend,Peter? M:Good idea! What’s the movie for this week? W:Let me see... Oh, it’s Titanic.

Please remember that we do want you to enjoy your stay. These rules are for your protection. First of all, you cannot have an open fire at your campsite. It’s fine to have a campfire, but you need to use the fire-pits. Every campsite has a fire area. Build your fires there. And don’t cut your own firewood. We sell firewood at the camp shop, so please, buy it there and don’t cut your own. Also you shouldn’t leave out your food. Don’t leave it on the picnic tables, for example. It’s best to keep your food locked in your car. We have a lot of animals in the park who would love to take your food, mostly smaller animals like hares or squirrels. There are some beautiful hills in the park. When you go climbing, always go with another person. It’s easy to get lost. The other thing is the swimming area. Children cannot swim alone. They must be with a parent or other adults. So, those are the basic rules. If you have any questions about the rules, I’d be glad to answer them. You can also call me at 800679. I do hope you enjoy your stay here. 2008 年北京市中考英语试卷及部分区县模拟试卷 16.2008 年北京市中考英语试卷(课标卷) 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 1.A 2.D 3.C 4.D 5.A 6.B 7.A 8.C 9.C 10.B 11.B 12.C 13.A 14.B 15.A 16.B 17.D 18.C 19.A 20.B 21.D 22.B 23.D 24.A 25.C 26.D 27.C 28.A 29.D 30.D 31.C 32.B 33.D 34.A 35.C 36.B 37.C 38.A 39.B 40.C 41.D 42.A 43.D 44.B 45.D 46.B 47.C 48.D 49.C 50.A 51.A 52.D 53.A 54.C 55.B 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听对话,记录关键信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 1.May 10 2.Tom White 3.Six/6,One/1 4.Five/5,West 二、选词填空(共 7 分,每小题 1 分) 5.too 6.family 7.five 8.do 9.and 10.like 11.farmers 三、完成句子(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 12.You’d better 13.Why not 14.What’s wrong with 15.too busy to 16.it’s necessary to make them stop to have a rest 四、阅读与表达(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 17.Yes,he was. 18.By taking a little rubber. 19.Three. 20.On December 22,1988. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 283 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 21.He protected the forest and changed the world’s ideas. 五、书面表达(15 分) 22.One possible version: Lin Hao is a student.

Next, we’ll go to the library. I think you’ll be very much interested in the great collection of books. Then we’ll have a look at the gym. You’ll find a lot of fun there. And finally, we’ll go to the cafeteria where you’ll probably spend a lot of time communicating with each other at least until your classes begin. The numbers of the rooms for your classes will be in the guide book you get in the office building, and it’ll be up to you to find those rooms yourselves.

It’s someone who will help you if you need help, who’ll listen to you when you talk about your problems... someone you can trust. Then, what do you mean by a friend, Robert? M:Someone who likes the same things that you do, who you can argue with and do not get angry, even if you don’t always agree about things. You can just sit together and not say very much sometimes. Just relax. I don’t like people who talk all the time. W:Are you very good at keeping in touch with your friends if you don’t often see them? M:No, not always. I’ve lived in lots of places, and, to be honest, once I move away,I don’t often call them. And I’m not a very good letter writer, either. But I know that if I saw those friends again, I’m sure the friendship would be just as strong as it was before. How about you? W:Well, several of my friends have moved away and gone abroad, things like that. One of my friends lives in another neighborhood now and I admit I don’t see her or hear from her as much as I used to. When I phone her, she always seems busy. But that’s an exception. I write a lot of letters to my friends and get a lot of letters from them. I have a friend I went to school with and seven years ago she moved to Canada, but she still writes to me every month, and I write to her just as often. 第Ⅱ卷 听力 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 288 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 一、听下面一段独白,记录关键信息。独白读三遍 Attention,9th Graders !

Okay, what should your project be about? You can work on either the environment or sports. If you choose the environment, the topic is, “How serious is pollution in Beijing?” If you decide on sports, then the topic is, “What sports are people in our city interested in?” After deciding on a topic, you will need to collect information. What research methods should you use? Well, if you pick the sports topic, I suggest you interview young people and their parents. Going to a fitness center or a gym to get some first-hand information may be a good idea. If you prefer the other topic, the one about the environment, you’ll need to make a questionnaire or survey, and do a lot of document research, in the streets, and shopping malls, as well as the Internet. I’ll let you have a month to collect information. On May 18, I would like you to hand in the plans for your research. On June 17, you must finish your survey and have your homework ready. The project can take the form of a written report or a video show. The written report must be at least 1 000 words long. If you have a video show, the recording should last no longer than 10 minutes. I will arrange for your group to show it in the classroom during lunch. Any questions? 第Ⅱ卷 听力 一、听下面一段对话,记录关键信息。对话读三遍 W:Excuse me, sir. I’m a student from No. 22 Middle School.

Sleep takes one-third of time in one’s life. Good sleep is needed for good health. The advice can help you get a good night. Make sure your room is dark. Let no light of any kind in. Before you go to sleep,ask your family not to turn on the light. Light breaks the sleep rhythm. Once broken,it’s hard to get the sleep clock running right. As a result, you will not sleep well. If you don’t sleep well, you will wake up tired. A hot bath just before bed is good. It makes you relax. This starts the feeling for sleep. During the day, get some exercise. Even a mild program will show good results. How about a good long walk or having a picnic with your friends in the sun? It’s not a good idea to stay at home instead of going out to breathe the fresh air. This will get your body to work. You will find that towards evening you will get that nice, tired feeling. Sleep will then come easily. In addition, exercise is good for your health. 第Ⅱ卷 听力 一、听对话,按要求完成下面的听力任务 W:Excuse me. M:Yes? W:I work for a company, and I’m doing some research. It’s for a new magazine.

She wanted to buy her a present that would be nice and useful but not expensive. A week before her mother’s birthday, she went shopping after a quick and simple lunch. After she had been looking for the umbrella for half an hour, she found a shop that was selling cheap umbrellas, and decided to take a black one, since her mother had lost hers the month before. She thought that her mother could carry it when she was wearing clothes of any colour. So she decided to buy a lovely black umbrella and she took it back to the school with her until her classes had finished. On her way back home in the train that evening, she went to the toilet, leaving the black 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 296 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 umbrella above her seat, but when she got back, it was gone! When she left, there were no other passengers there, but now there were three. Sally began to cry when she saw that the umbrella was no longer there. The other passengers felt sorry for her and asked what the matter was. After they learned what had happened, they asked her for her mother’s address so that they could send the umbrella to her if someone had taken it by mistake. The next week, Sally heard from her mother. She said, “Thank you very much for your lovely presents, but why did you send me three black umbrellas?” 第Ⅱ卷 听力 一、听独白,按要求完成下面的听力任务 Millions of children in the United States ride safely to and from school on school buses each day. Although taking school buses is the safest way to get them to school,each year about 33 school-age children die in traffic accidents which are to do with school buses. Most of those killed are between five and seven years old. They are hit in the danger area around the bus, either by a passing car or by the school bus itself. Young children are most likely to be hit because they hurry to get on or off the bus, act before they think and have little experience with traffic. They believe that drivers, will see them and will wait for them to cross. And they don’t always stay within the bus driver’s sight. Therefore, more and more attention has been paid to the safety of the school buses and children are warned to obey the traffic rules and be careful all the time. 21.2008 年北京市东城区中考英语一模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 1.D 2.A 3.B 4.C 5.A 6.D 7.B 8.B 9.B 10.A 11.C 12.C 13.A 14.C 15.B 16.D 17.D 18.C 19.A 20.B 21.D 22.B 23.C 24.A 25.D 26.C 27.B 28.A 29.D 30.D 31.A 32.D 33.A 34.D 35.B 36.C 37.A 38.B 39.C 40.A 41.D 42.B 43.C 44.D 45.B 46.A 47.A 48.B 49.C 50.D 51.C 52.A 53.B 54.C 55.D 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听短文,记录信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 1.night 2.Traffic 3.public places 4.16/sixteen 二、词汇运用(共 7 分,每小题 1 分) 5.your 6.middle 7.wife 8.staying 9.came 10.photos 11.everything 三、根据中文意思完成句子(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 12.too young to go/do 13.used to 14.How about/What about 15.as soon as he arrived in 16.so interested in, that he spends 四、阅读与表达(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 17.No. 18.It means you need 8 glasses of water every day. 19.It is for people under difficult situations such as soldiers and patients. 20.It depends.

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao has visited the “left-behind” children whose parents are working in cities before Children’s Day. During the visit to northwest China’s Shanxi Province, Wen visited the home of Yang Saike, a primary school boy in a village of Xingping City. Yang, whose parents were working in Fujian, thousands of kilometers away, was cared for by his grandparents. His parents failed to go home even once a year. The Premier held Yang in his arms and looked through his exercise book and praised him for his hard work. 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 306 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 Wen talked with many children and asked them many questions about their schooling and life. “You are so pretty,” Wen said to Liu Mengqi, a seven-year-old girl living with her grandmother. Liu’s parents were also working in the city. “Have you been to school yet?” Wen asked two other girls. “We are going to the pre-school class,” said one. “Mom and Dad at home?” Wen asked. The children shook their heads. “Children cannot see their parents very often, which is a new problem in the countryside. We should give them more care and love,” said the Premier. “With fast economic development, more people in the country chose to work in cities and left their children with grandparents back home,” said Wen. The Premier asked local governments to do something to protect and care for such children at home and freeing their parents in cities from worries about their children. (第Ⅱ卷听力) 一、听一段独白,记录关键信息 Different countries and people have different manners. Here are some examples. If you visit a Chinese family, you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you should not move before the host says, “Come in, please.” Before coming into the house in Japan, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even if your shoes are very dirty, this is not done. In England, a guest always finishes the drink or the food to show that he enjoys it. This will make the host very pleased. 25.2008 年北京市崇文区中考英语一模试卷 第Ⅰ卷(机读卷 共 70 分) 1.D 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.B 6.D 7.A 8.C 9.B 10.C 11.A 12.B 13.C 14.A 15.B 16.D 17.D 18.C 19.C 20.D 21.C 22.B 23.C 24.C 25.A 26.B 27.D 28.C 29.C 30.B 31.D 32.A 33.A 34.C 35.B 36.D 37.A 38.C 39.D 40.A 41.B 42.B 43.C 44.D 45.A 46.C 47.D 48.A 49.B 50.D 51.A 52.D 53.A 54.C 55.B 第Ⅱ卷(非机读卷 共 50 分) 一、听短文,记录关键信息(共 8 分,每小题 2 分) 1.Jack 2.go to a birthday party 3.on Sunday evening 4.No. 82 二、词汇考查(共 7 分,每小题 1 分) 5.big 6.teachers 7.library 8.can 9.borrow 10.go 11.like 三、根据中文意思完成句子(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) 12.It’s hot here.

Sport is also a way of relaxing! It stops you thinking about your problems and helps you to sleep better. Three people were interviewed to find out why they do not or did not do any sport when they were younger. (A man)“I never had the time to do sport. I was always too busy. I had to work very long hours and I couldn’t finish earlier. Oh, no. It was impossible for me to do all that jogging.” (A woman)“But isn’t sport bad for my heart? One doctor told me I had to rest because of the problems I have with my heart. I couldn’t do any sport when I was younger because I became tired very easily. I think it’s too late now, isn’t it?” (Another man)“I’m not the sporty type. I’m too fat to do sport. I was always fat as a child so I couldn’t play fast games with my friends. I had to do slower activities and rest more.” (第Ⅱ卷听力) 一、听对话,记录关键信息 W:Hello. This is Mary. M:Hello, This is Jack. May I speak to Jim? W:I’m sorry he’s just out. Can I take a message? M:Yes, please.

In the afternoon, we will walk again and then our bus will pick us up and bring us back to school. Another choice is a visit to Shanxi.

In my opinion, politeness is very important to us all because it can help us not only get on very well with each other, but also make the society better and warmer,especially in the year of 2008, when the 29th Olympic Games will be held in Beijing.

You can speak foreign languages. W:Exactly. You see, what I’d really like to do is to practise my French and Spanish. It would help me a lot at work. M:Mm, but that’s no use to me.

I understand that some of you hope to visit us. We opened the centre six years ago and organize holidays for people of all levels of experience. Let me tell you about a normal day’s programme. You’ll probably be pleased to know we don’t make you get up too early! After breakfast at 8:30 we begin at about 10 o’clock by getting the horses ready. You need to make sure you have the right equipment before the ride begins at about 11:30. For the first few miles we go quite slowly, breaking for about an hour at midday,near a beach or lake where you can swim or sunbathe. We arrive back at the centre at about 4 o’clock. Everyone has to wear a hard hat and these are available free of charge at the centre. Trainers are no good for riding, I’m afraid. Strong shoes or boots are the best. Warm clothes, such as 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 314 www.longwenedu.com 龙文教育--教育是一项良心工程 www.longwenedu.com 电话:010-58302509 jeans and sweaters, a small shoulder bag for carrying a packed lunch, are useful. All our accommodation is in double rooms with bathrooms. We have a television room and a game room and there is a safe area in the garden for children to play in. In the local area there are lots of things to see and do. Both golf and fishing are available and there is an excellent museum not far away. And now for the price. Well,a four-day holiday is £ 292 per person, including the riding, the equipment, the room and all food. If you have any questions, I’ll be happy to answer them now. Thank you.

Forty-two music students, aged 10 to 13, from Oak Hill High School in Boston,five teachers and two bus drivers were on the overnight trip to Canada. They were to take part in a band concert. Andrew, a 12-year-old boy who was on the bus, said that all the children were asleep at the time of the accident. The police said the bus went down a hill and landed on its side. Two girls and two boys were killed and several other people were thrown from the bus. Thirty-six people were treated at hospitals but most are now out of danger. The school remained open on Friday.
