广东省深圳市2021年中考英语模拟冲刺试题(一)

阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Nidhi Arora used to be the HR manager of a large Indian company. After sitting on lots of job interviews, she noticed a serious problem. Today's young people are very clever. They do well in exams. However, they know little about current affairs(时事). This is because they almost never read newspapers.

In Arora's opinion, understanding what is happening around the world is important. It helps young people know what they need to do: What does the world need? Could I create that?

However, there was another problem. The newspapers adults read use difficult language. None could be given to a child. Arora decided to make a four-page paper for kids on her own. With encouragement from many mothers, the Children's Post was born in 2017.

The paper covers a wide number of topics, including international affairs, environment, technology and history. Readers can also find puzzles, poems, short stories and cartoons in the paper. Arora has managed to put together a team of seven editors. The editors decide the content. Sometimes, they ask their readers what they want to read more of and change accordingly. The completed copy then reaches Arora for further edits. She makes sure the facts and grammar are correct and that the language is simple.

Today, the Children's Post is the only daily newspaper for children in India. More than 3,500 copies are sold every day. Arora is always thinking about improving her paper. She hopes every kid in India could develop the habit of reading newspapers.

(1)、What did Nidhi Arora find after sitting on lots of job interviews?
A、That many children were not interested in school. B、That there was no newspaper for children in India. C、That many young people were having difficulty finding good jobs. D、That young people knew little about what was happening around the world.
(2)、Why does Arora think understanding current affairs is important?
A、Because it can help young people focus on their studies. B、Because it can help young people know what they need to do. C、Because it can help young people invent new things. D、Because it can raise young people's interest in new technologies.
(3)、What does the underlined word "content" (in Paragraph 4) probably mean?
A、The level of difficulty of the articles. B、All the things that the paper includes. C、The number of pagers that the paper has. D、The quality of pictures that the paper uses.

With the two sessions (两会) opening in Beijing, it is time for Chinese to discuss big things happening in the country. What are the most important things when it comes to running a country? We interviewed some students at home and abroad to share their ideas. 

Rule of law

Respecting the rule of law makes sure that all people follow the law. It can protect the freedom of all people. It is also key to economic growth(经济增长) and social order. It's the starting point for a country to keep growing. 

Telesia Tanaai, 16, New Zealand

Fairness

Be fair to everyone and protect everyone's rights. It encourages people to take an active role in their country and build their future. When a country is fair, it brings people together. 

Bai Yifan, 15, Jiangsu

Putting people first

There is an old saying in China: People are the foundation (基础) of a country. So a country's government needs to try its best to serve its people. Since the late 1970s, around 800 million Chinese people have lived a -better life. This shows the country's tradition of serving the people. 

Cui Luoyao, 14, Beijing

Education

I believe that education is what makes a country strong. If people are well-educated, they can use what they have learned to do good things for their country. With good education, the country will become better. 

Zhu Yuhan, 17, US

Public welfare (公共福利)

Good public welfare means that people can live a good life with good healthcare and social services. When people's lives are improved, their. happiness grows as a result. When the government helps everyone, this makes a peaceful and friendly society. 

Lee Chulkyu, 16, South Korea

The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics was a great success. China has kept the promise to hold a green Olympics. Many green actions made it possible, like providing environmentally friendly smart beds, using new energy(能源) cars, supporting sporting places with 100% clean energy and reusing rain and snow water.

Take making ice as an example. China didn't use R507, a common material to make ice, because it isn't friendly enough to the environment. Through 18 months' hard work, China independently developed the CO2 direct cooling technology.

A net of tubes runs under the ice. High-pressure liquid(液态) CO2 goes through them to create heat(热) exchange. The CO2 evaporates(蒸发) under the ice surface. The evaporation takes in heat and turns water on the surface into ice. And the CO2 goes into another circle. This technology helps to make ice better and faster. And above all, it is much greener because there's no new CO2 produced. Among all the 15 ice sporting places in the Winter Olympics, 7 used the CO2 direct cooling technology to make ice. As a result, much less pollution was caused.

Beijing did so much more to save energy. Beijing built the new sporting places with green materials. As for the old ones, Beijing used new glass walls to take the place of traditional walls to let more natural light in. 70% of the waste heat was also reused to keep warm and dry. And a large number of new energy cars were used at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.

The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is the first to truly achieve carbon neutrality(碳中和), and it has set new standards in green technologies. Some newspapers say China has set an example for the world in environmental protection and green development.

Li Shizhen, a well-known medical scientist of the Ming Dynasty, is seen as a great master of medicine in China. He put all his time and heart into 1 , only to save the dying and cure the sick.

Li was born in 1518 in Hubei. Both his grandfather and father were doctors. Li's grandfather was a country doctor who travelled from place to place with a bag of herbs (药草). Such doctors were called Lingyi (bell doctors), because they could show their arrival by 2 a bell. Li's father was also a famous doctor in their 3 area. So it was easy for the people there to find the doctor. 

From childhood, Li went to the mountains with his father to 4 herbs, gaining wide knowledge about animals, plants and medicine. Although Li's father hoped his son could get a government job, Li failed the exam three times. He then turned his 5 to medicine.

At the age of 33, Li became 6 for curing Prince Zhu Houkun's son. A few years later, he was invited to work at the Imperial Medical Institute (太医院) in Beijing. During that time, he 7 many ancient medical texts, and noticed a mess in the naming and categorization (分类) of herbs. To 8 it, he decided to leave his job to write a book about herbs.

After that, Li travelled to many places and got much first-hand experience. He also read hundreds of medical books and different kinds of herbs. After 27 years of efforts, his first draft (初稿) of Ben Cao Gang Mu was 9 in 1578. The book is highly detailed and well-organized and is considered one of the greatest scientific 10 of China.
