Today, it is a symbol of France. Take a closer look at the country’s “Iron Lady”. There are 120 TV and radio antennas at the tower’s top. The tower is made of iron and concrete.

B Why is music an important subject that every child should study? First of all, music helps us when we are unhappy, and gives us pleasure when we are happy. There are many different types of music: slow and fast, serious and relaxing. We can choose the music to match our feelings. And second, music is fun. Everyone enjoys playing a drum and using their energy! Scientists say that music helps children with language learning. Singing simple songs is good for young children. Music improves the ear --- and we know that children who have studied music can learn foreign languages more easily and pronounce them far better. Students who have learnt to play music are also better at mathematics (Maths). This is not surprising, as music is mathematical, with notes (音 符) in order. Playing music with other people also teaches children to work together. People who can play musical instruments always have something they can do at a party. Older children who play in school bands and orchestras (管弦乐队) enjoy school more and do not drop out of school early. You need a lot of practice to play an instrument, and it can be difficult to make your child spend hours at the piano or playing the guitar. So music practice should be a daily habit-for example, every day after school, but do not make the practice too long. Parents should listen to their child playing and tell him or her that they enjoy it. Practice should also be fun. It is also a good idea to finish the practice with a piece of music the child likes, and so learning music will be a pleasant part of the day. 29. Which of the following is NOT the reason for children to learn music? A. Music can help children to work with others. B. Music is fun and it can make children happy. C. Music can help children learn language more easily. D. Music can help children put notes in order more easily. 30. Parents should to help them learn to play musical instruments. A. tell children to love music B. practice with their children C. listen to their children playing D. make their children practice long 31. What is the best title for the passage? A. Music helps learning B. Music gives pleasure C. Music develops a habit D. Music helps the young C When you wear something, you are often saying, “Look at me!” Your clothing communicates to the world what you want the world to think of you. For example, when you go on a job interview, you might choose clothes that make you seem sincere. When you go to a party, you might choose clothes that make you look exciting. __1__ In Scotland and parts of the countries of East and Southeast Asia, men as well as women wore skirts. In Turkey and China and among the Inuit, both men and women wore trousers. But in ancient Greece, men who wore trousers were thought to be savages (野蛮人). In the United States today, both men and women wear pants. __2__ Over the centuries, anthropologists (人类学家) have learned that the clothing people wore was connected to the position they held in society. In most societies, important people put on special clothing to show their power. In the 18th century, kings and queens wore special clothing, often specially made and difficult to keep clean. Since poor people could not afford to wear this kind of clothing, it became a symbol of wealth. __3__ Today some people still wear clothing that represents their position in life. Sometimes clothing clearly shows the organization that a person works for. Postal workers, airline attendant and some factory workers wear uniforms. Others wear expensive clothes that show their social position as wealthy people. __4__ Now many teenagers and adults buy clothes from a certain designer or company. They may like the good name of the designer or the company and want to share that name. But one basic reason for choosing clothes is the same as it has always been. People choose their clothes to tell others who they are and what they like. 32. The sentence “In different civilizations (文明) at different times, different kinds of clothes have been acceptable (可接受的).” can be put in Blank . A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4 33. Why do some people buy clothes from a certain designer? A. They like the designer’s good name. B. They work for the designer’s company. C. They want more people to know the designer. D. They think it makes it easier to choose clothes. 34. In the sentence “But one basic reason for choosing clothes is the same as it has always been.”, “one basic reason” probably refers to (指的是) . A. their work B. their wealth C. their appearance D. their position 35. According to the article, you may believe that . A. people might not look attractive in new clothes B. each new period brings some changes in clothing C. clothes from good designers or companies sell well D. people who belong to organizations must wear uniforms D Could you live without a TV for one year? What would you do with all that spare time? Philippa Carling wanted to see if it was possible and persuaded (说服) her family to give theirs up for one whole year. “I live with my husband and our two children,” explains Philippa, “and I realized just how much time we spent sitting in front of the TV. The children turned it on first thing in the morning and again when they got back from school. My husband and I were no better. We’d spend the evening together talking about very little but what programme was on at that time. Then the family decided, after lots of arguments (争论), that we would try to do without it for one year. We had the Internet and everyone was allowed to watch some of the recorded programmes if they had a good reason for doing so.” And so, on 24th July last year, the Carling family sold their TV. Eleven months have now gone by and Philippa believes the experiment (实验) has been a great success. As she explains, “We were all surprised at how easy it was. The immediate result was we all started to read a lot more, including the children. We spend time together after dinner playing board games around the table and the children finish their homework a lot quicker than before. We talk about what will happen when the year comes to an end and the children have always said they want the TV back. But they’ve also agreed that life has been good without it.” So will the TV return when the year comes to an end next month? “We’re not sure,” says Philippa. “We might decide to buy a new one or we might not. The important thing is we’ve all learnt that life can carry on without one. It can even be fun!” 36. What is the writer trying to do in this text? A. To warn parents about the dangers of TV. B. To argue that TV programmes are boring. C. To explain how a family lived without a TV. D. To persuade readers to give up their TVs for a year. 37. What do we learn about Philippa’s family? A. Their TV was on all day long. B. They all agreed to try the experiment. C. She and her husband didn’t watch much TV. D. They argued about which programmes to watch. 38. The family used the Interent . A. to watch recorded TV programmes B. to find good reasons for not having a TV C. to find out which programmes they were missing D. to chat with others who were doing the same experiment 39. What does Philippa say about the experiment? A. The children’s school work has improved a lot. B. She was surprised at how much free time they had. C. The children now read more than her and her husband. D. It wasn’t as difficult to live without TV as she had thought. 40. What might Philippa say about TV? A. Life doesn’t come to an end without a TV. B. Children find it too hard to live without TV. C. It’s best to watch TV when you have spare time. D.

No other animal has feathers. Other important features for birds are wings and hollow bone. Birds fly by flapping their wings and using air pressure (压力) to create lift under their wings. Just like airplanes do. The peregrine falcon is one of the fastest birds. It can reach speeds of over 100 miles per hour when diving. Feathers are important to birds because they keep them warm, help them to fly, and provide camouflage (伪装). Hollow bones also help in flying because they help make the bird light enough to fly. Although an important characteristic of most birds is flying, not all birds fly. Some birds that don’t fly are penguins, kiwis, and ostriches. Penguins actually spend much time in the water where they are swimmers. Ostriches on the other hand are very fast runners. An ostrich can outrun a horse! There are all sizes of birds. Hummingbirds are some of the smallest birds, while ostriches are some of the biggest. Different types of birds eat different things. Some birds feed on plants, some birds eat insects, and still others eat other animals like fish, snakes, mice or rats. Birds are also known for their migrating (迁徙) patterns in large groups. Some birds will travel long distances each season to stay in a climate that is good for their survival. Birds are sometimes kept as pets. The most popular birds for pets are tropical (热带的) birds like parrots. Birds also have a history of helping out humans in different tasks. They can carry messages (homing pigeons) and help hunt (falcons).

C 双重所有格的考察，“我朋友的其中一个”，of 后使用名词性物主代词。 10. D 根据“I have to return to get it”判断出前面的事情对现在有影响，符合现 完的第一条定义，在南京中考中一过和现完都对的前提下，通常都选择现完。 11. C mistake 是一个及物动词，后面不会直接跟介词，故判断出应使用被动语态，使 用句意判断亦可。根据后面的时间标志词 sometimes 判断出应该使用一般现在 时。 13. B 构词法，尤其是合成词的考察近两年特别常见。除 snowman 与 handbag 一样均为 合成词外，其他三个选项均为词根加词缀的形式。 14. D 近两年中考中阅读的细节题、猜词题等都会提前到单选部分考察。根据句意“这 个房子很大但没人喜欢住里面”可以猜测出这个短语的意思为“大而无当”、 “华而不实”。 二、完形填空 16. A 根据 school sports 和 children 可判断这里的关系应该是“教育”，突出了体 育锻炼的重要性。 23. C 通过 and 可判断这里的词义应与上文一致，上文有 better，对应的动词应为 improved。 25. A 最后一段是在讲跑步中的注意事项，比如下文说如果身体前倾会伤到背部。这里 如果填 run 则已经涵盖了整个话题，与分列式的结构不服。根据“放松肩颈，身 体挺直，抬头挺胸。”可以判断这是方便“呼吸”。 三、阅读理解 29. D 根据文章第三段倒数第四行“Playing music with other people also teaches children to work together.”可知 A 正确；根据第二段第一行“music helps us when we are unhappy, and gives us pleasure”可知 B 正确；根据文章第三段第一行“Scientists say that music helps children with language learning.”可知 C 正确；故选 D。 40. 根据全文可知，Philippa 家的生活没有电视更加丰富多彩，另外最后一段也 提到“The important thing is we’ve all learnt that life can carry on without one. It can even be fun!”没有电视的生活可以继续，更加快乐。A 选项意为“如果没有电视的话， 生活不会毁灭”，故选 A。 五、阅读填空 任务型阅读 56. different 释义词，说明文文章大意看首段。No other animal has feathers。除了鸟类别的动 物没有羽毛，说明羽毛使鸟类最为与众不同，different。 57. use 转化词，对应原文第二段第一句。注意原文中 using 与 by 共同构成介宾短语， 但表格中充当谓语，通过连词 and 与前文同为谓语的 flap 判断应使用一现。 58. because 原文词，定位第二段最后一句。注意原文的 because 为原因状语从句的连词，但 表格中有 of 与 because 共同构成介词短语。 59. swimming 转化词，定位原文第三段到数第三句 they are swimmers，说明他们擅长游泳，be good at doing sth. 60. Types 原文词，定位原文第四段第二句。注意首句中 size 并不能概括整段大意，all size 属于 different types。 61. list 释义词，原文说有些鸟吃植物、昆虫，有些鸟吃鱼、蛇、老鼠等等。换言之，提 到的这些都在鸟类食物的“列表、名单”里，on the list of。 62. far 释义词，定位原文第四段 Some birds will travel long distance...，long distance 变为 一个副词词即为 far。 63. pets 原文词，定位原文第四段 Birds are sometimes kept as pets。 64. facts 总结词，原文最后四条打箭头的都是关于鸟类的事实，而且比较冷门有趣，故填 facts，注意用复数。 65. speed 释义词，定位打箭头的第一条，run as fast as 43 miles per hour 描述的是鸵鸟的速 度，使用短语 at a/the speed of。 首字母填空 66. subjects 根据 and other 判断出该空与上文构成包含关系，是 Latin, Greek, literature 的上一 次“学科”，other 后应使用复数 subjects。 67. married 根据后文 They had three children 依照动作发生的先后顺序，“生孩子”之前应该是 “结婚”。 68. sometime 因为该空不填并不影响句子结构，且修饰的是一句话，故判断词性为副词。莎士 比亚在 1586 年的某个时候去了伦敦，故填 sometime。 69. theater/theatre 根据下文 he liked to watch performance on the stage there 可以判断出他 worked 的 地方应该是“剧院”。 70. roles 根据原文 when the company needed extra actors“当剧院需要额外的演员时”，he took on“他就接手了”，说明下文的词应是 actor 的近义词，故填 roles“角色”，注 意词形应与 actors 保持一致。 71. as 上句和下句句子结构都已完整，故应使用连词。根据前后时态一致，推断出连词 为 as“一边…一边…”。 72. called 上文的 historical play 和下文的 Henry VI 是指的同一件事，两者构成同位语关系， 可知后者是前者的名字，故填 called。 73. until 前文句子结构已完整，因此此空应与后面的名词 1608 共同构成介宾短语。1608 为年份，应作时间状语，因此填 until。 74. returned 此空充当句子谓语，故使用动词，时态与全文保持一致，使用一过。上文说莎士 比亚去了伦敦，这里提到了故乡，因此填 returned，“回到”。 75. greatest 这句话句子结构已完整，且此空在名词前充当定语，因此词性为形容词。根据最 后一句 more often than those of any other playwrights，比较级表最高级可判断这里 应使用 greatest。
