山东省菏泽市2021年中考英语真题试卷

阅读理解

Like most kids, Landon Kenstrick, 5 years old, has a favorite animal. However, his favorite animal is quite different from other kids'. He loves pangolins.

Pangolins have small heads and long, broad tails. They are toothless. They have small ears, but their hearing is good.

Their sense of smell is well-developed, too. But their sight is poor. When they feel frightened, they roll up into a ball to protect themselves. "My favorite thing about the pangolin is the scales (鳞片)it has on its body. They look cool, "Landon said.

Landon first learned about pangolins from a TV show, Wild Kratts. Knowing that pangolins are facing the danger of dying out, Landon quickly decided to take action to protect them. He wanted to tell everyone he knew about them. On Halloween, he had his parents carve (雕刻)a pangolin into their pumpkin (南瓜), so that when people asked what it was, he could tell them all about his favorite animal. When Christmas came around, Landon had only one wish: to save the pangolins. His parents had him "adopt (领养)" a pangolin in Landon's name. They also came up with a good idea. They helped Landon make Christmas gifts to sell to help raise money for the pangolins at a market. So far, he has raised $ 400.

If you think a 5-year-old boy is too young to save the pangolins, you'd be wrong. Landon told us nobody's too young to save anything.

 以下是一篇短文,请阅读全文,并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文的意思完整、连贯。

A. When he's not sure whether he's loved or not,

B. It's also a good idea to set an example for your kids.

C. parents still need to lead their kids to form the habit of not lying.

D. As kids get older,

E. Actually, they don't need to worry.

F. They could do a lot for their kids.

Most parents are worried the first time they catch their kids out lying. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

According to the child and teen psychiatrist Gayani DeSilva, "Kids lie for many reasons, and it is normal for them to lie. People are not born with the knowledge of communicating with others and getting their needs met. They must learn how to communicate those needs in proper ways. They'll experiment with different communication styles and skills until they find the ones that work best for them. Lying is one of these skills."

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}they become more aware of how their actions affect others, and many will lie less frequently because they know it could hurt someone else's feelings. In spite of this, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} According to DeSilva, when children lie, look at them directly and ask what they need. After they tell you, gently remind them that telling you directly will be more effective(有效的)than lying.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}If you want them to have good behavior. In other words, don't lie to your children.

In some cases, lying is a sign of a deeper problem. A child who is neglected will lie more than a child who has attentive and responsive parents. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}he may lie to please others. The same goes for a child who has experienced something unpleasant. By paying attention to the reasons behind a lie, parents can know what needs to be done. For example, while Jack might lie about finishing his homework in order to play video games, he might also be trying to avoid negative feelings connected with homework. "And this is just where parents should start," says the therapist Gideon Javna.
