二、阅读理解
(2015·山东东营中考)There are many colors in nature. But do you think that a color has weight? I think you'll say “no”. But I'm afraid you are wrong. If you don't believe it, you may do a small experiment(实验).
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Third, wrap(包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other one with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different

weights in man's mind. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind.
The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for(代表) a kind of light with a certain wavelength(波长). It reaches our brain through sense organs(器官).
According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you'll be nervous or even get ill. For example(例如), you like blue and hate red. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpaper and furniture(家具) for two hours, you'll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you'll feel you have been there for only an hour. And, if a person walks out of a blue room and into a red room, his temperature will rise. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.
1.From the experiment, we know that .
A.the two boxes have the same weight
B.colors can change the weight of an object
C.the red paper is heavier than the white paper
D.colors have different weights in people's mind
2.From the fourth paragraph, we can infer(推断) .
A.the smell of colors is changeable(可变的)
B.people can sense the light from colors
C.people can smell the colors through the nose
D.all the colors have the same smell for the blind

3.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.White color is heavier than red color.
B.People may get ill if they refuse the colors they don't like.
C.People can stay longer in red rooms than in blue rooms.
D.People's body temperature will change with different colors.
4.We can infer from the last paragraph that .
A.red color is bad for our health
B.people may get nervous in a red room
C.blue color can raise(提升) our body temperature
D.colors can influence our mood(情绪) and health

阅读短文,根据要求完成下面各小题。
(2017·山东淄博中考)You see people in movies celebrating a white Christmas in England or the United States. But Christmas in Australia is different.
The holiday, celebrated on Dec. 25, comes at the hottest time of the year in Australia. The temperature is usually about 30℃ in most cities and can even be over

40℃. There is certainly no white Christmas in Australia.
Because it is so hot, the tradition is to have a lunch outside and to swim in the pool or beach. Most people have a oneweek holiday during this time, so they will travel to meet their family for Christmas lunch. Christmas lunch is usually a big meal of ham, turkey, salad and fresh seafood. Family members all cook something different to bring to the big meal. I always enjoy Christmas lunch because there are lots of good cooks in the family. One year my aunt even made a delicious gingerbread house(姜饼屋) that we ate for desert.
Children get presents from “Santa Claus” and are always excited to play with them. It is a fun time to play or swim in the pool with the other members of your family.
The sport of cricket(板球) is very popular in Australia and another tradition is to play a game of cricket in your backyard. I always enjoyed playing with my uncle and cousins when I was growing up.
So Australia might not have a white Christmas. But it is still a very exciting and fun time of the year.

五、 According to a survey, we know most middle school students sleep less than 8 hours each night. This is because the students have too much homework. They have to spend long time finishing the homework, so that they can't go to sleep early. Second, many students would rather play computer games late than go to bed early.
Without enough sleep, many students feel sleepy in class, it will get in the way of their study. As a result, their grades drop. What's more, some students can get ill easily.
Enough sleep is important for students' development. We must do something to make sure the students can have enough sleep. First, less homework should be given to the students by teachers. Second, students need to keep away from mobile phones

for at least an hour before sleep. Reading books or listening to some smooth music are helpful to students.
