Love whatever you have to do, thus you will always be able to do what you love and to love what you do. Live each day as if it’s your last! Today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present. Be present to enjoy the moment. Each day is a fresh start with chances just waiting to be explored, so what are waiting for? Accept everyone. Enjoy the company(陪伴) of others and show interest in their goodness. Don’t judge(评判) others and treat others as you would like to be treated. Be confident. Focus on(集中) good thoughts and good things will happen. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Blaming yourself won’t help anything. Take action to find the cause of any bad thoughts (fear, anger, doubt, hate…). Cancel out(消除) each one with a good thought:“I am brave!”“I know I can do it!”“I forgive and I do not hate!” You may not be feeling your best at the moment, but you will feel better when you think about good things. Enjoy the environment. Take a break sometimes and go for a walk. Take a fresh look at the clouds, the colours of the sky at sunrise and sunset. Look at the plants, trees and how they move when the wind blows. Look at water how it shakes. This exercise will clear off the dead memories that kill the joy of living. Besides, make a list of everything you’ve dreamed of doing and then make it happen. Dreams aren’t achieved by sitting around and waiting. They are achieved by getting up and working for them! Work hard and make your dreams come true. Work hard and play harder! You can always realize your dreams. If you really want something, find a way to achieve it! Be YOU bravely. Don’t be a shy person! You are who you are! Forget what others think and live your life! Do what you want because life is what you make it, and your life is yours! Nobody

(英语)九年级上册英语阅读理解的基本方法技巧及练习题及练习 题(含答案) 一、阅读理解 1.阅读理解 "Without music, life would be a mistake, "famous German philosopher(哲学家)Friedrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some American schools have cut music classes to control budgets(预算). For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired over 1, 000 teachers. Among them, 10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That's partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn't tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often. However, learning music is beneficial(有益的)in many ways. When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth K. Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode(解码)them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time. Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music:Einstein played the violin and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano. (1)Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ____. A. they were too difficult to learn B. students in the US weren't interested in music C. the schools wanted to control budgets D. there weren't enough music teachers in the US (2)In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined word "them" refer to(指代)? A. Students in Chicago. B. Public schools. C. Parents in Chicago. D. Fired teachers.(3)How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. (4)What's the writer's opinion according to this passage? A. Music is as simple as it looks. B. Music classes should be cut in some schools. C. Music is a big part of our lives. D. Music isn't a very important life skill for us. 【答案】(1)C (2)D (3)B (4)C 【解析】【分析】本文介绍了很多地区削减了音乐课以控制预算,这是不合适的,因为音乐在许多方面都是有益的。 (1)细节题。根据some American schools have cut music classes to control budgets可知美国的一些学校停课,因为学校想控制预算,故选C。

2020初三英语阅读理解及答案

2020初三英语阅读理解及答案 下面有一篇文章,希望同学们用10分钟将此题做完,然后对照讲解找到准确的答案。 Passage 1 If you look at the sky one night and see something moving and shining that you have never seen before, it might be a comet (彗星). A comet sometimes looks like a star. Like a planet, a comet has no light of its own. It shines from the sunlight it reflects (反射). Like the earth, a comet goes round the sun, but on a much longer path (轨道) than the earth travels. If a comet isn’t a sta r, what is it then? Some scientists think that a large part of a comet is water frozen into pieces of ice and mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock. When sunshine melts (融化) the ice in the comet, great clouds of gas go trailing after it. These clouds, together with the dust, form a long tail. Many people perhaps have seen a comet. However no one knows how many comets there are. There may be millions of comets, but only a few come close enough for us to see. An Englishman named Edmund Halley, who lived from 1656 to 1742, found out a lot about the paths that comets take through the sky. Some comets move out of our sight and never come back. Others keep coming back at regular times. A big comet that keeps coming back was named after Halley because

上学期九年级期中考试英语阅读训练 (使用须知:本试卷供本次九年级期中考的模拟阅读训练,附有详细答案及讲解,教师可在周末布置学生这项作业,然后可在课堂上评讲阅读文章中还未学过的一些知识,也算是中考前的一次复习) 第一题 有些人为了要扩张耕地和工地面积,试图把湿地变成农田,变成建筑,可是这是决不行的!因为湿地对我们人类来说是十分重要的。 There are many wetlands(湿地)in China and some of them have become the world‘s important wetlands. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng,Jiangsu Province. They are home for many different kinds of birds and animals. The world’s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve(自然保护区)is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely there. There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world,but every winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands. The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine,too. They are really good places for wildlife(野生生物)。Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent flood. But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife. Luckily,more and more people are beginning to realize the important of wetlands and wildlife. Every year,on February 2nd,many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands. 根据以上短文内容,然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。 1. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are in the _______ of China. A. east B. south C. west D. north 2. Usually the weather in the wetlands is _______. A. hot B. pleasant C. cold D. dry 3. The World Wetlands Day is on _______. A. April 22 B. June 25 C. February 2 D. March 22 4. We must protect wetlands because _______. A. they are home for wildlife B. they can prevent flood C. they can offer food to the animals and birds D. all of the above 5. The best title for the passage is _______. A. China‘s Wetlands Have All Entered the World’s List B. Wetlands—Home for Wildlife and Human Beings C. Special Animals in the Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands D. Wetlands—Valuable Recourses(珍贵资源)of Land on the Earth 「答案与解析」 1. 选A.从第1段的句子The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in
