浙江省丽水市2024年中考英语一模试卷
My brother Cody and I were in the back seat playing the guessing game I See when the snowstorm started.
"I see something green," Cody said. "The green highway sign?" I guessed, although it was hard to read it. I looked around. "The green hat on the girl in the car behind us?"
"Yes!" Cody laughed. "Your turn."
Dad spoke to Mom. "I don't like the looks of this. It's getting harder to see anything."
Suddenly, Dad stopped the car. We found the car nearly hit the tree on the roadside. Nobody talked. Cody and I stopped playing I See. It was like we were all helping Dad by holding our breath.
"We need to get off and wait out this storm," Dad said. "But I can hardly see the road, not to mention an exit (出口)."
Just then, I saw a red, blinking light high in the sky. "I see something red!" I shouted.
"Not now, Kenny," Dad scolded.
"I hey were red words," I continued.
"Let's forget about the games," Mom said.
But I had seen it. "It was like one of those really tall signs that flash GAS or FOOD like we've seen near exits."
"You're right. There's an exit!" Mom cried, pointing ahead. Dad carefully drove the car toward it. Finally we could see the red sign clearly enough: EAT HERE. Dad let out a big breath. We slipped and slid our way into the parking lot. Then we got off and moved into the small restaurant. A moment later, another family came in behind us. I saw the girl with the green hat.
"We followed your car's taillights here," her mom told us. "We would never have found this place without you."
"We wouldn't have found it either," Dad said, winking at me, "if we weren't riding with someone who's very good at I See."
Here is some cool information about the world's population（人口) .
| It took 12 years for the world's population to grow from 7 billion to2022's 8 billion. But it will take about 15 years for the population to reach 9billion. That's because fewer babies are born now. In 50 years, this can slow the growth of the world's population. |
| The day on which the world's population grows by one billion is important. The United Nations chooses a baby born on that day as the symbolic (象征的) baby. For example, the world's population reached 8billion on November 15,2022. Vinice Mabansag was born on that day and she became the symbolic 8 billionth baby. |
