广东省深圳市2019年初中英语毕业生学业考试仿真卷(三)
If you have no special plans for your holidays, why not spend your time helping others? Don't listen to people who say that young people today often think of themselves. It's not true at all. More and more young people in the USA volunteer to spend their school holidays working for others. And they don't do it for money. Here are some of their stories.
Alice, 17 I'm going to help the forest center build new hiking paths in the mountains. It's going to be terrific. I will spend the whole summer living in a tent and breathing the fresh mountain air. I'm going to sleep under the stars. It will be a nice sport, and I will be able to do something good at the same time! |
Jason, 18 This summer, I will volunteer with Special House Program. They build good, low-cost houses and sell them to the poor. They'll teach me what to do, so I am going to help people and also have a chance to learn how to build houses. |
Trish, 16 I'm going to teach children who have trouble in reading. I'll work for a program called Reading for Life. Every day, I'm going to help children choose and read books that they like. I want to be a teacher, and I love children and reading, so this is going to be a great experience for me. |
How much do you know about "tigers"?
The "tiger" with the most beautiful sound The tiger with the most beautiful sound is Chunyu,an ancient musical instrument(乐器).If you want to visit it,you can go to Shifang Museum,Sichuan Province.It has a tiger﹣shaped handle(手柄).At the very beginning,Chinese people used Chunyu in wars. Then people used it in parties. The most expensive "tiger" In 2010,a tiger painting by a Chinese artist Qi Baishi was sold at a price of $3.6 million in Hong Kong.Among only several tiger paintings made by Qi,this one was a birthday gift to his good friend Yang Hu.It is different from most China's tiger paintings because Qi painted this tiger from its back.But people can still feel how strong the tiger is without seeing its face. The loveliest "tiger" Tiger﹣head shoes are the traditional shoes for children in China.The name comes from the toe cap(鞋头) because it looks like the head of a tiger.In the north of China,people also call them cat﹣head shoes.They are mostly red and yellow.Chinese people make the tiger﹣head shoes for the kids and hope that their kids can be as strong as tigers. |
