They sometimes have different ideas about living, working and playing. But in one special program in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way.Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group. Everyone works several hours each day. They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and enjoyment in work. Some teenagers work in the woods or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things like tables and chairs and build houses. The adults teach them these skills.There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too. During the free hours some of the teenagers learn photo taking or painting. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to spend his free time.When people live together, rules are necessary. In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the program goes before the whole group. They talk about it and ask, “Why did it happen? What should we do about it？”One of the teenagers has this to say about his experience, “You stop thinking only about yourself. You learn to think about the group.”5In one special program in New York State, young people and older people Adont work well togetherBteach one another new ways of building housesCare friendly to one anotherDspend eight weeks together, working as farmers6All the members work some time every day mainly to Alead a busy lifeBlearn new skills of farmingCget used to the life on the farmsDfind value and pleasure in work7Living together, Athe teenagers dont have to obey the rulesBthe teenagers have to obey the rules the adults makeCthe members have no free time on weekendsDthe members are not allowed to break the rules they make together8The last paragraph shows that the teenager thinks his experience in the program is Aunpleasant BtiringChelping DboringC(xx安徽中考)Dear Sunday Globe，I am writing to tell you about your article Smartphones Make Life Easier in last Sundays newspaper. You did an excellent job explaining the good points of smartphones, but you didnt talk about their bad points at all. So, I hope youll let me give your readers some advice on smartphone etiquette(礼仪)The first point Id like to address is loudness. When you talk on your smartphone in public, please dont shout. In fact, the microphones in smartphones are very sensitive(灵敏的). So, you can be heard even if you speak quietly.Another point is about personal space. I dont think it is polite to make calls in small spaces full of people. This makes others uncomfortable and forces them to listen to your personal business. Whats worse, it stops many facetoface conversations from ever beginning.Lastly, doing two things at the same time is dangerous. For example, making calls while driving is a bad habit. Pay attention to the road! Similarly, when staying with your friends, turn off your smartphone and enjoy their company.Yours truly，Amber Jala9Amber Jala wrote the letter to .Afind a good job Bprovide adviceCmake her life easier Dbuy a smartphone10What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A致函 B称呼 C陈述 D选址11According to Paragraph 3, what makes people around you uncomfortable?ADiscussing facetoface.BSpeaking quietly on your phone.CMinding your own business.DCalling in small spaces full of people.12What can we learn from the last paragraph?AIt is dangerous to drive on the road.BIt is easy to start a company with others.CIt is bad to turn off our phones while driving.DIt is important to use our smartphones properly.D(xx广西贵港港南二模)Chris Hughes is a 24yearold man from the United Kingdom. He often wears the same clothes for many days in a row because he doesnt know how to use a washing machine.This is not a joke. Hughes is far from the only young person who doesnt have basic life skills. According to a recent study by You Gov, a UK market research firm(公司), todays young people in the UK are less capable(有能力的) than older generations(同代人) when it comes to basic life skills.For example, about 35% dont know how to sew(缝) on a button and 11% dont understand how to change a light bulb(电灯泡) or iron(熨烫) clothes.This problem is shared by young people in the United States as well. According to Forbes(福布斯), many young people in the US are losing the skill of cooking, as they are much more likely to order takeout food. Technology may be the main reason for this. Born and grown in a digital age(数字化时代), young people are more familiar(熟悉的) with using phones and computers. For example, with GPS always at hand, young people have no need to learn how to read physical maps.However, this does not mean that younger generations are unable to complete basic everyday tasks. The Mirror showed that as their lives have changed, the major life skills that they are good at have changed as well.The study results show that although only 45% know how to pay their water and electricity bills after leaving home, 72% could help set up a WiFi network in a new house.13Why does Hughes often wear the same clothes for many days?ABecause he has developed it as a habit.BBecause his clothes wont get dirty.CBecause he likes to play jokes on others.DBecause he doesnt know how to wash them.14According to You Govs study, young people cant iron clothes?A11% B35% C45% D72%15What could be the main reason for this problem?ATechnology in the digital age.BToo much homework every day.CParents love for their children.DThe convenient use of GPS.16.According to The Mirror, most young people today Adont need to learn basic life skillsBare developing new basic life skillsCcant complete basic everyday tasksDare good at setting up new houses17Whats the best title of the passage?AThe Story of ChrisBHow to Sew on a ButtonCTechnology SkillsDBasic Life Skills Are Dying OutE(xx安徽中考)There was once an old and deep well. People got water by dropping a bucket(木桶) tied to a rope. The rope passed over a wheel just above the well. On the other side of the rope was another bucket.A strong pull brought one bucket to the top while the other down to the water. They always passed each other on the way up and down, but never had time to speak.At last, the rope became worn. So a new rope had to be put in its place. While this was being done, the two buckets were left standing together near the well.“What a boring life we have！” said one bucket to the other. “I am quite tired of it. No matter how full we come up, we are always sent down empty.”But the other bucket laughed and said, “What a funny way you have of looking at things! Dont you see that whenever we are sent down empty, we always come up full？”Boys and girls sometimes talk like these two buckets. You may hear one of them say, “Just as we are having a good game, we are made to stop and go to work again.”“Yes，” the other will reply, “but as soon as work is over, we always get to go out and have fun again.”There are two ways of looking at things. If you want to be happy, look at the bright side.18What were the buckets tied to?

In 1271, at age 17, Marco went on a trip with his father and uncle to China. Today people often travel to different places around the world. But it was very hard for people from Europe to visit China then. After three and a half years, the Polos reached China on 1275.While he was there, Marco Polo worked for Kublai Khan, the emperor(皇帝) of China. He was able to learn and experience many things that were new to Europeans. In his diary, he wrote, “Kublai Khans palace is the greatest Ive ever seen. The streets of the new capital, Daidu, are so straight and so wide.” Paper money also took him by surprise, since it was not yet in use in the West at that time. Homes were heated with “black stones. which burn like wood.” These stones were coal, and most of the Europeans knew little about it then.After 17 years in China, Marco and his family finally returned to Venice in 1292. After he returned home, Marco completed a book about his trip, full of facts about his wonderful experiences in China.5How was Marco Polos threeandahalfyear journey to China?AExpensive.

Luckily, a wildlife rescue group saved her and left her in the care of Brantley Harrison and her family in South Carolina. The Harrisons often look after wild animals and later send them back into the wild.The Harrisons named her Bella. With three other squirrels, Bella stayed in Brantleys care until spring. During her stay, Bella acted similarly to the other squirrels. In April xx, the squirrels were sent back into the wild. Bella, however, wasnt ready to leave her human family. Within days of being released, she started visiting them, looking for treats. Brantley said that the other squirrels also came back over the first few days, but within a week they stopped coming by and began to avoid people.“Bella usually sits at the front door, waiting for someone to notice her. She comes almost every day，” said Brantley. Her husband John often brings Bella nuts as she is usually waiting by the door for him. Actually Bella has become a member of the family.For nine years, she continues to visit them. Brantley said, “If Bella can teach at least one person to care for all living things, no matter how big or how small, then we have done what we have set out to.”9From the passage, we know that the Harrisons Adont like wild animalsBsaved an owl in xxCare very kind to animalsDcannot help Bella out10The underlined part “being released” means “ ”Agetting hurt Bdropping byCbeing saved Dbeing sent into the wild11What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?ABella wants to get more attention.BBella becomes a member of the family.CNuts are Bellas favorite food.DIts not easy for the Harrisons to find Bella.12Whats the best title for the passage?ATo Save SquirrelsBWays of VolunteeringCThe Harrisons and Their PetsDA Squirrel and Her Human FamilyD(xx湖北黄冈中考)Beauty sleep is a real thing, researches have shown that people who have enough sleep look more attractive(有魅力的) to others.A few bad nights is enough to make a person look “especially” more ugly, their sleep experiments show.The researchers asked 25 university students to join in their sleep experiment. They were asked to get a good nights sleep for two nights.A week later, they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row.The researchers took makeup free(素颜) photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep.Next, they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge(评价) them on attractiveness, health, and sleepiness, as well as asking them: “How much would you like to make friends with this person in the picture？”The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low.The strangers also said they wouldnt want to socialize with the tired students. The researchers say this is natural for people. An unhealthylooking face makes people run away. In other words, people dont want to hang around with people who might be ill.Dr. Brewer, an expert at the University of Liverpool said, “Judgement of attractiveness is often unconscious(无意识的), but we all do it, and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy. This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us.”13When did the researchers take makeup free photos?AAfter two nights good sleep.BAfter two nights bad sleep.CBefore the experiment.DAfter both two nights good sleep and two nights bad sleep.14The researchers asked the strangers to do the following except Atelling who looked healthierBtelling who didnt have many friendsCtelling who missed a lot of sleepDtelling who was attractive15What kind of friends did the strangers like to make?AThe people who were tired.BThe people who were sleepy.CThe people who were unhealthy.DThe people who were attractive and energetic.16What does the underlined word “socialize” mean in Chinese?A合伙 B玩耍C交往 D共事17According to the passage, which of the following is the best title?ABeauty Sleep, More AttractiveBMore Sleep, More FriendsCLess Sleep, Fewer FriendsDNo Attractiveness, No FriendsE(xx贵州遵义桐梓模拟改编)It is said that more than four million people die each year from smoking.
