贵州省贵阳市2019年中考英语试卷

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出最佳选项。

    What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.

    When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic control. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality.

    Three-dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic.

    They build the object layer by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop, the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive.

    So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.

(1)、What is the passage mainly about?
A、Environmental protection. B、The world of tomorrow. C、Advantages of technology.
(2)、What do we learn from the passage?
A、Some people think technology development may bring new problems B、3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap. C、The flying cars won't bring air traffic jam even when they become popular.
(3)、What is the correct structure of the passage? (P1=Paragraph1)
A、 B、 C、
(4)、What does the underlined word "they" refer to?
A、Car companies. B、3D print. C、Body parts.
(5)、We can infer that the writer ________ about the future life with technology.
A、doesn't care B、feels hopeful C、feels disappointed
举一反三

     Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you know was in trouble—and he was? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP.
     ESP stands for(代表) Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.
     Here is an example: A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she screamed, “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair!” Just then. a telegram came. The woman's father had died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.
     There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages. Here's another example—one of hundreds of dreams that have come true.
     A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, “There's room for one more.” The man felt the driver was dead, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus. The bus driver said, “There's room for one more.” Then the man saw the driver's face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn't get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!
     Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences. Others, including some scientists say that ESP is true. From studies of  ESP, we may some day learn more about the human mind.



 Choose the best answer.

Daniel Olin was 11 years old when his parents moved to Canada. He liked his new school and made friends there,but then things at home started to change. His mum and dad began to argue and the arguments got worse and worse until one day,Daniel's mum left. With his father working long hours,to run away. And that's what he did. 

Very early one terribly cold morning when the snow was deep on the ground,he packed a bag with some clothes,some chocolate and a map of Canada and set off to a forest. He ran and ran until he could hardly breathe. His feet were heavy with the snow but he still walked on through deep snow, not even watching where he was going.

Then,disaster struck. A rock hidden by the deep snow caught his feet and Daniel fell to the ground. He had broken the bone. He was very cold and was starting to feel tired,but he knew that if he fell asleep in the snow, he would certainly die from the cold.

A tree shook ahead. From within the branches(树枝),a pair of yellow eyes watched Daniel. The puma had been following him. A puma is a large wild cat with claws that could tear(撕开) Daniel into pieces. But instead of moving in for the kill,arms and legs. Daniel was too frightened to move,but soon the warmth of the animal reached Daniel and he began to feel better. From time to time(口鼻) against Daniel and rocked his head gently. Clearly,the puma knew that Daniel must not fall asleep. This animal should have been a real danger to Daniel and yet the boy began to feel safe. 

They remained like that for several hours until Daniel and the puma heard voices. The rescue (援救) team had found them. 

 Cloze Test.

I see a photograph in a magazine. A male lion is sitting on the 1 . Beside him is a baby lion, 2 the baby lion is giving him a painful bite on the back. But papa lion doesn't get angry, and he doesn't even try to 3 the baby away. He just sits there and allows 4 to be "attacked (攻击). "This is what dads do-they endure (承受) all the 5 .

A few years ago, at a baseball game in America, a/an 6 lost control of his bat. The 32-ouncewooden bat flew into the stands (看台). 7 hid (躲藏) under their seats to protect themselves except for one young boy--he hadn't been paying 8 . At the last moment, a 9 reached out and knocked the bat away 10 the boy's head. It was the boy's father. This is what dads do--they protect their children. 

I don't have 11 kids, but my brother has two daughters. They both have jobs and live away from home. One day, his elder daughter had a flat tyre while 12 on a busy highway. It was a/an 13 place for something like that to happen, but she didn't have to think twice about whom to call for help. My brother dropped what he was doing and drove 20 miles to 14 the tyre. This is what dads do--they help their children throughout their lives. 

Thanks to all the dads who endure, protect and help. They are the everyday 15 that their children need.
