初中英语文中细节试题

People depend on plants． We use plants for food， cloth， shelter （住处）， and even the air we breathe （呼吸）．

Plants keep our air and water clean． Green plants give us oxygen （氧气）． Oxygen is part of the air we breathe．

Plants are also part of the water cycle （水循环）． Most of the water that a plant takes in goes back into the air．

Plants give us a lot of the food on the earth． Fruits， vegetables， and grains （谷物）come from plants． Without plants， we would not have bread， rice， carrots， apples， oranges，or bananas! Many people are growing plants to eat in their own gardens at home． Having your own garden helps the earth as well．

When you grow your own fruits and vegetables， you help cut down on pollution because big trucks don't need to take your food to shops． You also help reduce the amount of rubbish because you don't need to use bags for packing your food． You can just pick it out of the ground or off a plant and put it into a basket!

Trees are an important plant resource （资源）． Trees provide wood to build homes and furniture． Trees are used to make lots of things around your home and at your school． And trees provide fruits that are good for you． Without trees， the earth would be a very different place．

New Zealand offers free school lunches to thousands of kids

WELINGTON， Feb． 20 （ Xinhua） ﹣"Thousands of children have begun receiving a free lunch on schooldays under the government's free and healthy school lunch program，" Prime Minister （首相）Jacinda Ardern said on Thursday．

"The program is for 7 ，000 students at 31 schools right now． The number will extendto 21 ，000 students in 120 schools by the start of 2021 ，"Ardern said while she was serving up lunch at a school in Hawke's Bay．

"A full stomach makes all the difference to a child's learning，" Ardern said．

"Providing a free and healthy lunch at school is one way to help New Zealand become the best place in the world for school children． And people can see that difference right away，" she said． She added that providing these lunches was also a great way for local families to have jobs．

"The program is one of 75 plans from New Zealand's CYWS （ Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy）． It started last year and developed with the money from 10 ，000 New Zealanders including 6，000 young people ，"said Education Minister Chris Hipkins．

（1）What kind of writing is it？

D．	Invitation．

（2）The underlined word "extend" here means " 　　"．

B．	giving lunch to the school children
C．	thinking how to provide jobs for local families
D．	collecting money from New Zealanders

People use languages to communicate．Any language has its ways to express people's minds．One of the ways in common is the use of idioms．An idiom is a group of words．It has a special meaning that is different from the usual meaning．For example，under the weather is an idiom meaning ill．So when people say "I'm under the weather，" they are saying that they're not feeling well． Another example， in all weathers means in all kinds of weather． So， "There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all weathers" tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot．

Different languages may have different ways to make idioms． For people who are learning a foreign language，idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless headaches． On the other hand，if things are done right， idioms can also be a fun way of looking into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk．

Metaphor （比喻） is often used in idioms． Let's read the following two examples：

●It makes my blood boil （煮沸） when people litter．

●The night was dark and quiet； my blood ran cold when I heard a strange noise outside at dark night．

In neither situation above， our blood can reach the point so high or so low in temperature．Yet， with the situations the two sentences created， it is not difficult to work out the unhappy feelings of really angry in the first example and very afraid in the second．

Of course，not all idioms are this easy to understand．When we come to idioms of a foreign language，a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested．

（1）This passage tells us something about 　　in the English language．

A．	grammar
B．	writing
C．	reading
D．	idioms

（2）If your brother breaks your computer， you can say to him， " 　　"

A．	I'm under the weather
B．	I'm there in all weathers
C．	You've made my blood boil
D．	My blood runs cold

（3）What is the writer's advice when you come to an expression like under the weather？ 　　

A．	We should look it up in a good idiom dictionary．
B．	We should try to express our minds with it．
C．	We should find an interesting way to learn it．
D．	We should create situations to guess its meaning．

These days， teenagers are heavily influenced by the media．Many of them have watched thousands of hours of TV．That's more time than they spend with teachers at school．And we haven't yet considered the hours they spend using the Internet and reading newspapers．

However， several studies have shown a serious problem： today's teenagers lackmedia literacy（媒体素养）． In other words， they have difficultly critically thinking about the information they see． One study that was done on middle school students showed that more than 80 percent of them couldn't tell the difference between real stories and ads that looked like news．

Standford professor Kevin John teaches a class called Media Effects． He tries to help his students learn media literacy． The professor gave an example that shows why media literacy is important． In the example， two news stations report a snowstorm． One focuses on（关注）the terrible road conditions． The other focuses on kids playing in the snow． "With a news story． news stations tell you what they feel are the important details（细节）． These details mostly depend on the opinions of the news director．" said John． "A person who has media literacy would realize that each story is about one side at this time． There is more going on．"

Some experts think school is the best place to teach media literacy． Other believe everyone﹣from parents to reporters﹣should help teenagers learn the skills．

As for the best time to start learning media literacy， many experts suggest the age of 12． But some basic ideas can be taught even earlier． "It's never too early to start learning media literacy，" John said．

（1）From the first paragraph， we can learn that teenagers today spend more time 　　．

A．	using the Internet than watching TV
B．	watching TV than studying at school
C．	studying at school than reading newspapers

（2）The underlined word "lack" in Paragraph 2 probably means 　　．

A．	缺乏
B．	质疑
C．	误解

（3）The example shows that a person who has media literacy 　　about a news story．

A．	should have the same opinions as others
B．	could think about is good and bad sides
C．	must know about all the important details.

（4）Professor Kevin John would agree that 　　．

A．	everyone is supposed to help children learn different sills
B．	children should be taught media literacy as early as possible
C．	news directors should report the news children are interested in

（5）The main idea of the passage is 　　．

A．	how to develop teenagers' media literacy
B．	where teenagers should be taught media literacy
C．	why teenagers are supposed to have media literacy

The COVID﹣19（新冠肺炎）outbreak is changing people's traditional habits such as greetings and customs． People in different countries have had some new and creative choices． Knowing about this could help us understand their cultures and communicate with each other．

France Newspapers have been filled with advice over how to replace（取代）handshaking and kissing on the cheek．Now looking into a person s eyes can satisfy as a greeting．

Romania Martisor Festival marks the beginning of spring when the flowers and talismans（护身符）are handed out．But the government has told people to hand over the flowers and talismans without kissing．

Iran A video has become popular．It shows that three friends are meeting．Two of them are wearing masks（口罩）．Hands in their pockets， they tap their feet against each other as a greeting．

China People are called on to greet each other through the Internet and not to get together if possible．They can join their hands together in a sign of greetings instead of shaking hands when they meet．

Australia People are not advised to shake hands．And instead，they can give each other a pat on the back．"I won't say 'Don't kiss'， but you could be exercising a degree of care with whom you choose to kiss，" said an officer．

（1）How are Chinese people called on to greet each other？ 　　

A．	By greeting online．
B．	By handing out talismans．
C．	By tapping feet．

（2）In which country are people advised to pat on the back？

B．	Iran．
C．	Australia．

（3）Which of the following is TRUE？ 　　

A．	Nobody wears masks in the video from Iran．
B．	Shaking hands is not advised in China or France．
C．	People in Romania welcome spring with only flowers now．

（4）What may be the common traditional greeting way in some European countries？ 　　

A．	Kissing on the cheek．
B．	Joining hands together．
C．	Looking into the eyes．

（5）According to the passage， what influence can COVID﹣19 have on people's life？ 　　

A．	People might change their social behavior．

How do you feel about nature？After spending hours indoors，do you feel better when you visit your local park？Most people think that nature is good for our bodies and brains．However，humans are spending more time inside and less time outside．For example，the number of visitors to Canada's national parks is getting lower every year．And in countries such as the USA，only 10% of teenagers spend time outside every day．Many doctors feel that this is a problem in the twenty﹣first century．

As a result，some doctors are studying the connection between nature and health：one example of this is the work of Dr Matilda in Sweden．The doctor gave people a maths test．During the test，their heart rates（心率） were fast．After the test，one group of people sat in a 3D﹣virtual﹣reality（虚拟现实） room for fifteen minutes with pictures and sounds of nature．Their heart rates were slower than people's in the other group．

The virtual touch with nature helped them feel more relaxed．Another good example of how nature is good for health comes from Canada．In Toronto，researchers studied 31，000 people living in the city．In general，they found that healthier people lived near parks．

Because of studies like these，some countries and cities want nature to be part of people's everyday life．In Dubai（迪拜），for example，there are plans for a new shopping mall with a large garden so shoppers can relax outside with trees，plants and water．In Switzerland，"forest schools" are popular．Schoolchildren study their subjects in the forests and do lots of exercise outside．And South Korea（韩国） is another good example：it has new forests near its cities and around 13 million people visit these forests every year．So after building cities for so long，perhaps it's now time to start rebuilding nature．

（1）What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about？ 　　

A．	Teenagers' problem in the 2lst century．
B．	How much time we spend outdoors．
C．	Visiting your local park．
D．	Feeling about nature．

（2）Match the countries or cities with the information and choose the right answer． 　　

①the USA          a．Children study in the forests and do lots of activities outside．

C．	①﹣a ②﹣c ③﹣d ④﹣b
D．	①﹣d ②﹣c ③﹣b ④﹣a

（3）What do the results of the studies show？

B．	The maths test is difficult and makes people nervous．
C．	Nature can help people feel more relaxed and be healthier．

B．	Country life is healthier than city life．
C．	People have lived in the cities for so long．
D．	Nature should be part of people's daily life．

Some people ski（滑雪） down mountains．Others climb huge rocks or photograph dangerous animals．Why do people enjoy risky activities like these？

Some people take risks simply because it makes them feel good．Psychologist（心理学家）Marvin says that this kind of explorers（探险者） are always looking for change and excitement．When people do something new or risky，a chemical（化学物质） in the brain creates a pleasant feeling．They love this feeling and want to experience itas often as possible．

Other people don't take risks for the feeling of excitement but to achieve a goal．For example，Mike Fay went on a dangerous 2，000﹣mile special journey in central Africa．He worked to help save the wildlife there．Fay's expeditionshelped create 13 national parks．

For other people，such as extreme athletes（极限运动员），taking risks is part of their job．Sports psychologist Shane says extreme athletes see the world differently．In a dangerous activity，most people probably do not feel in control．Extreme athletes are different：they feel in control in dangerous situations．The danger can even help them．For example，skier Daron Rahlves says that being afraid makes him try harder to succeed．

Most of us are not extreme athletes or explorers．However，we still take risks in our lives．Some of us take social risks，such as speaking in front of a large group of people．Sometimes，we take financial risks，such as buying a house．And sometimes we take career risks，such as leaving a job or starting a business．Most people take risks in some areas of life，but not in others．What kind of risk﹣taker are you？

（1）What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to？ 　　

A．	The brain．
B．	Something new．
C．	A chemical．
D．	A pleasant feeling．

（2）What does the underlined word "expedition" in Paragraph 3 mean？ 　　

A．	Much money．
B．	A journey with a special goal．
C．	A great idea．
D．	A plan for a dangerous journey．

（3）How many kinds of extreme athletes or explorers are mentioned in the passage？ 　　

A．	Three．
B．	Four．
C．	Five．
D．	Six．

（4）Which of the following is true according to the passage？ 　　

A．	Mike Fay is a professional risk﹣taker．
B．	Most people don't take risks in their daily life．
C．	Extreme athletes deal with danger better than others．
D．	Daron Rahlves takes risks mainly for change and excitement．

In 2007，Barrington Irving became the youngest person to fly alone around the world．He was just 23 years old﹣and he built the plane himself．How did he achieve this？

Irving's interest in flying started when he was 15．He was working in his parents' bookstore in Miami，Florida．One of the customers was a pilot，Gary Robinson．One day，Robinson asked Irving if he was interested in flying．lrving didn't think he was smart enough．But the next day， Robinson took Irving to an airport．He showed Irving inside the cockpit（驾驶舱） of a Boeing 777．That experience changed Irving's life．

Irving really wanted to fly，but flight school was expensive．To achieve his dream，he worked different jobs．He washed airplanes and cleaned swimming pools．At home，he practiced flying on a video game．In the end，he got enough money for flight school．

At flight school， Irving achieved his dream of learning how to fly．But he wasn't finished．Next，he planned to build his own plane and fly alone around the world．

Building the plane was difficult．Irving asked more than 50 companies for airplane parts．Most said no，but he persisted（顽强地坚持） in asking．Three years later，he had parts worth ＄ 300，000．Columbia，an airplane company，agreed to build a plane using the parts．Soon，his airplane was ready to fly．

On March 23，2007，Irving began his round﹣the﹣world trip．After 97 days﹣with 145 hours in the air﹣he landed back in Miami．A cheering crowd of people was there to welcome him．

Irving saw many young people in the crowd，and this had a powerful effect（影响） on him．He wanted to use his experience to help other young people achieve their own dreams．

"Everyone told me what I couldn't do，"says Irving．"They said I was too young，that I didn't have enough money．But even if no one believes in your dream，"he says，"you have to pursue（追求） it．"

（1）Why was Gary Robinson important in Irving's life？

Cait， 11， was trying to fall asleep when her 8﹣year old brother， Doug，came into her room．He looked around， but seemed really out of it．Then Doug went back into the hallway and stood there looking straight up at the light．This was really strange．Cait didn't know what to do．Just then，Cait's father appeared and explained Doug was sleepwalking．

Not all sleep is the same every night． We experience some deep， quiet sleep and some active sleep，which is when dreams happen．You might think sleepwalking would happen during active sleep， but a person isn't physically active during active sleep．It usually happens in the first few hours of sleep in the period called deep sleep．

The truth is that not all sleepwalkers walk．Some simply sit up or stand in bed or act like they're awake when， in fact， they're asleep! Most，however，do get up and walk around for a few seconds or for as long as half an hour．

Sleepwalkers' eyes are open，but they don't see the same way they do when they're awake．They tend to go back to bed on their own and won't remember it in the morning．

You also might have heard that sleepwalkers can get frightened if you wake them up．That's true，so what do you do if you see someone sleepwalking？You should call for a grown﹣up who can lead the person back to bed．And once the sleepwalker is tucked back in bed， it's time for you to get some sleep， too!

"Are you listening， Simon？"Simon's teacher asked．It was a pretty usual question．

Simon shook his head， smiling．He hardly listened or tried hard in class．Talking was so much fun．He wanted to be heard rather than listen．

"Listen， and you'll learn something．Mrs. Jacobs tried every day， but Simon never paid attention．

That evening，his throat really hurt．The next morning，when he opened his mouth to say "Good morning"，nothing came out but a croak．

Simon's mother looked at him．"Honey，you've lost your voice．"

"Can I stay home？"He tried to ask， but words didn't come out．Instead， his mother checked him for a fever and decided it was good for him to go to school， even if he couldn't talk．

When he got to school， Mrs. Jacobs said "Hello" to him，and he just nodded．When his friends asked him what TV show she watched last night，he just shrugged．By the time the bell rang for class，almost everyone was looking at him as if he'd grown a third eye．

Penny raised her hand．"Mrs. Jacobs， why isn't Simon talking？"

"He never stops talking，"Richard said worriedly．

Everyone started talking at once．They were excited， worried，and surprised．

Simon sat in class， bored．He watched them talk to each other as if the teacher wasn't there，but he couldn't even do that．In math class he could hold up fingers if the answer was less than 10， but that wasn't fun．He decided to try to pay attention．

He could do his homework that night．It gave him TV and game time with his work all done．

The next day， even though his voice was coming back， he stayed quiet again．The third day，he could talk fine，but he listened and raised his hand to speak．

What a difference that one day made!
