山东省临沂市2019届中考英语押题卷(二)
Once a king got two nice falcons(猎鹰) from his son. He had never seen such beautiful falcons before. He loved them so much and he ordered the best falconer to train them to fly.
After several months, the king came to see how the training was going on. He found that one falcon had already been able to fly high in the sky, while the other one was staying on the branch(树枝) of a tree quietly without moving.
The king called all his falconers together and ordered them to try every way they could to make it fly. But none of them succeeded. One day, while the king was taking a walk in the forest, an idea came to his mind. He decided to find someone who knew the natural environment well to solve the problem. Then he sent for a farmer who lived in the forest into his palace to train it at once.
The next morning, the king saw the other falcon flying above in the sky freely. "It is unbelievable!" shouted the king. "How could you make it happen?"
The farmer replied, "It's very easy. I just cut off the branch where the falcon rested."
It is always the same to humans. We all have "two flying wings in our hearts as well, but we often seem not to notice them and stay where we feel safe and comfortable. We won't realize we can fly so high and freely until the "branch" we are resting on breaks.
Giving directions in different places
If you ask people of different countries "Could you tell me the way to the post office?", you will get different answers.
In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} The post office is across from the bus stop."
In Kansas, America, there are no towns or buildings within miles. So instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. For example, people will say, "Go north two miles {#blank#}2{#/blank#}".
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions. They will often say, "Follow me." {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Sometimes if a person doesn't know the answer to your question, he or she, like a New Yorker, might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don't know". {#blank#}4{#/blank#} They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. A visitor can often get lost in Yucatan!
{#blank#}5{#/blank#} You might not understand a person's words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually point to the correct direction. Go on in that direction and you may find the post office!
A. Turn east, and then go another mile. B. But one thing will help you everywhere. C. People there think "I don't know." is not polite. D. Turn left at a big hotel and go past a fruit market. E. Then he or she will take you through the streets of the city to the post office. F. Sorry, I don't know, I'm a stranger here. |
What are they doing for holiday?
They are happy because they are on holiday.
Mary is visiting her aunt in Paris. She is very excited to be in Paris. It is a very famous city. And it is a good place to go shopping!
Tom is fishing in the lake. Because the water is very clean, there are so many fish in the lake. Tom is having a good harvest (收获).
Simon and Bill are good friends. They are usually very busy with their study every day. So they want to do something different. They are going bike riding together in the beautiful countryside (农村,乡下). It's relaxing.
Jesse is taking some photos in the park. The park is very beautiful in autumn, and it's a good place to take photos.
Everyone gets tired sometimes. It's important to have a rest. And it's good for your health. It can help you work or study better, too. I hope everyone is having a good time.
