I live in a large neighborhood. I have lived here since I was born. I have a lot of neighbors. My favorite neighbor is Mr Chan. He is 85 years old. I enjoy visiting Mr Chan because he often tells me exciting stories about Hong Kong in the past. He also shows me old photos. Yesterday, I visited Mr Chan after school. I asked him when and why he moved here. This is what he told me:

"I have lived in the neighborhood since 1993. Before I moved here, I lived in a small village called Pak Mong on Lantau Island. There were many people living in the village when I was young. Now, there are only a few families left. Most families moved to the city for work. I left the village in 1993, when my son moved to the city.

Pak Mong is an old village. There are watchtowers (瞭望塔) around the village. In the old days, soldiers used to stand in the watchtowers and keep guard (站岗). Here is a photo of my school. I went to that school a very long time ago. The school has been closed since 1985.

Now, I enjoy going to the Kowloon Walled City Park, because it makes me think of my old village. I have visited the park three times since 2004. Would you and your family members like to go to the park with me next week?"

三．根据短文内容，完成下面的句子，每空一词。（每小题2分，共10分）Do you like coke? Do you know we can cook chicken with it? And does it have anything to do with our mobile phones? The latest cell ph one, the “Coke Phone”, by the Chinese designer Daizi Zheng is a surprise.

Daizi Zheng is a famous designer in England. The Nokia company asked her to design a phone that is not bad for the environment. As a result of her research, she found that normal phone batteries are expensive and bad for the environment. It also uses many good resources（资源）to make a normal battery. So she wanted to design a battery that is green. Then a Nokia cellphone that drinks coke was born.

The cell phone has a bio-battery（生物电池）.It gets power from sugar. So users only need to pour a glass of coke into it, and then watch the coke turn into power. Once the battery dies, only oxygen and water are left. Bio-batteries can last three to four times longer than the usual batteries. In fact, Zheng said that not only coke but also soda（苏打）with sugar can be good resources to power the cell phone.

If so, you may never look at a can of coke in the same way again.

Nadya Vessey was born with an illness and her legs would never grow. At the age of 16, both of her legs below (低于) the knees were cut off. Nadya Vessey hasn’t let that destroy her. She recently changed herself into a mermaid (美人鱼).

It was a little boy that started Nadya’s change. One day a little boy saw her take

off her prosthetic (修复术的) legs and asked her why she didn’t have any legs. After thinking quickly, she asked him whether he had heard of The Little Mermaid. He said "Yes", so Nadya told him that she was a mermaid. Nadya said, "He was surprised and said 'wow, that’s cool’ and ran off to tell his dad".

The idea of a mermaid became clearer and clearer in Nadya’s mind. After thinking it over, she wrote to the Weta Workshop two years ago, asking if they could make her a prosthetic tail (尾巴). She was surprised to get the reply that they agreed. The Weta Workshop’s director was happy to make it happen and wanted Nadya to be beautiful. It took the Weta Workshop two years to make a special suit for Nadya. After practicing in the local swimming pool, Nadya went to the open sea and tried out her mermaid suit. Nadya was pleased with it.

It is really surprising. It’s wonderful to watch Nadya swim and to see her dream come true.

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

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
