沪教版2019-2020年英语中考英语模拟试卷（二十四）D卷姓名:_ 班级:_ 成绩:_一、 阅读理解 (共3题；共28分)1. （8分） For many years scientists have said that the earth is getting warmer. Now they have found something new-hot cities! In the southern US, they have found that cities become very hot in summer. For example, the city of Atlanta in Georgia has roof(屋顶) temperature of up to 50oC while it is 27 in the streets! At night, the outside of buildings stays so hot that the heat of the city causes storms over the city!China also has the same kind of problems. Every year more farmland is used for factories or offices. More housing is needed, too. As people become richer, they buy more cars. New roads are needed and new car parks are built in the city centers. This all makes cities hotter.It isnt easy to change the situation. City planners say that we should plant more trees in the middle of cities. Every new street should have trees on both sides, they say. Trees make the temperature lower, so we should have more trees in our parks and squares. We should also paint our roofs white. If we do this, they do not become so hot. Every roof in a hot and sunny country should have solar(太阳的) roof panels. The electricity from these can be used to run the air conditioners (空调)in the buildings.People continue to cut down forests around the cities. This makes the problem worse. Cities are growing faster and faster. By the year 2025, four fifths(五分之四) of the population will be living in cities. If we go on like this, there will not be enough farmland to feed everyone in the world（1）The scientists have found .A . cities become very hot in summerB . Atlanta is the hottest city in AmericaC . there are not as many storms as beforeD . it is not as hot on the roof as in the street（2）The way to make the city cooler is to .A . plant more treesB . try to use air conditioners moreC . build more parks and squaresD . paint the roofs of all the white buildings（3）What will probably happen in the future according to the fourth paragraph(段落)?A .

Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid(流体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle(拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been, we could never fly.（1）What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story?A . It was trying to make a cocoon for itself.B .

Patient but cruel.B . Careful and wise.C . Kind but unwise.D . Brave and funny.（4）What does the last paragraph(段落) tell us?A . Sometimes struggles are necessary in our life.B . Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it.C . Every good deed will come back with good result.D . The greatest happiness in the world is to help others.（5）What is the best title for the story?A . The Love for the CocoonB . The Joy of Helping Each OtherC . The Lesson of the CocoonD .
