初中英语文中细节试题

The winter holiday is usually a good time to sleep in． But Gao Yuqi， a 14﹣year﹣old boy from Anhui， got up at 7： 00 am to run at least 2 kilometers every day during the holiday． In fact，this exercise was part of this homework．

Gao was not alone． Many schools across the country required students to exercise during the winter holiday． Part of the reason is that physical education test scores are now worth more on the senior high school entrance examination （ 中考）． And the score is now worth up to 60 points．

Because of this， Gao's school now asks students to run when the weather is nice， and exercise indoors if it is bad． Students have to post（公布）exercise photos in their classes' QQ groups． At the Golden Apple Jincheng No． 1 Middle School in Chengdu， students have daily exercise plans． For example， they have to skip rope（跳绳） for two minutes and do three sets of sit﹣ups（仰卧起坐） each day． Their parents sign off（签名）on their plans when they finish exercising．

This has been a big challenge for many students， but has also helped to make exercise a bigger part of their lives． Many students like Gao used to hate running， but now they are able to run for over half an hour every day． They fell in love with exercise during the holiday．

（1）How many kilometers did Gao Yuqi run every day during the holiday？ 　　

A．	At least one kilometer．
B．	At least two kilometers．
C．	At least three kilometers．
D．	At least four kilometers．

（2）What did the schools require the students to do during the winter holiday？ 　　

A．	To exercise．
B．	To be volunteers．
C．	To have a rest．
D．	To do a survey．

（3）What do the students have to do when they finish exercising in Gao's school？ 　　

A． To call their tea．

A．	To put their plans online．
B．	To ask their parents to sign off on their plans．
C．	To post exercise photos in their classes' QQ groups．

（4）Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage？ 　　

A．	Skipping rope．
B．	Swimming．
C．	Sit﹣up．
D．	Running．

（5）What is the passage mainly about？ 　　

A．	How to exercise during the winter holiday．
B．	Exercising is a big challenge for many students．
C．	Physical education test scores are important now．
D．	Exercising is becoming part of students' homework．

Imagine a perfect day： the weather is good and everything seems fine． When， suddenly， your mobile phone loses its signal， the television has no programs， and you can't get online with your computer．

What has happened？ These are just the types of problems a solar storm（太阳风 暴）might cause． You may not think of storms as putting our society in danger． But today， a solar storm is as serious as other bad events， such as earthquakes．

A solar storm is caused by solar flares（太阳耀斑）： large explosions（爆炸）near the sun that can give off lots of energy． The strong energy can stop the satellite systems（卫星系统）that control our computers， telecom networks and so on． These storms can even cause the power to go out for weeks or months．

In the past few months， scientists have recorded some of the strongest sun flares in years． The most recent one happened around Valentine's Day， 2011． It caused radio and satellite signals to go down in some northern cities in China．

"Solar flare activity is going to be much worse than what we've seen in the past． We're not talking about a few cities losing power， it could be half of the country， maybe more．" SolarStorm Warning．com， a US website about space weather， warned．

Scientists say that little can be done to predict such a storm． Governments around the world are trying to work together before the next storm， although they are not sure when that may happen．

Once there was a famine（饥荒）．A rich cook sent for twenty of the poorest children in the town and said to them， "In this basket there is a piece of bread for each of you．Take it and come back to me every day at this hour for more．"

Her mother was very worried ，and said， "Take the money back to the cook at once．The silver must have fallen into the dough（面团）by accident． Hurry up， Mary．"

When the little girl gave the rich man her mother 's message， he said， "It was no mistake．I had the silver pieces put into the smallest bread for you as a prize． Always be as satisfied， peaceable and thankful as you now are． Go home now， and tell your mother that the money is yours．"

My mother used to ask me what was the most important part of the body． Through the years I would guess at what I thought was the correct answer．

When I was younger， I thought sound was very important to us as humans． So I said， "My ears， Mommy．" She said， "No， many people are deaf． But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon．"

Several years had passed before she asked me again， Since making my first try， I had thought over the correct answer． So this time I told her， "Mommy， sight（视力） is very important to everybody， so it must be our eyes．" She looked at me and told me． "You are learning fast， but the answer is not correct because there are many people who can't see．"

Over the years， Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was， "No， but you are getting smarter every year， my boy．"

Then last year， my grandpa died． Everybody was hurt． Everybody was crying at the funeral （葬礼）． My mom looked at me when it was our turn to say our final goodbye to grandpa． She asked me， "Do you know the most important body part yet， my dear？"

I was shocked when she asked me this now． I always thought this was a game between her and me． She saw the confusion （团惑） on my face and told me， "This question is very important． It shows that you have really lived your life．" I saw her eyes in tears．

She said， "My dear， the most important body part is your shoulder．"

I asked， "Is it because it holds up（抬起） your head ？"

She replied， "No， it is because it can hold the head of a friend or a loved one when they cry． Everybody requires a shoulder to cry on sometimes in life， my dear． I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you require it．"

Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish （白私的） one． It is Sympathetic （体谅的） to the pain of others．

Recently， my husband and I had the chance to do something good for two people who were complete strangers to us． It made us feel so good to be able to do it that I thought I should share， We were traveling to Thailand on New Year's Day with our family． Since I travel a lot for work， we have had enough flying miles to become the VIP （very important person．） of the flight to enjoy first class（头等舱） seats．

As we were sitting in the very first two seats in the first row of first class waiting for the plane to take off， I heard one of the flight attendants （航班服务员） telling the others that there was a young couple sitting in the back of the plane that had just been married several days before and were going on their honeymoon（蜜月）． They had ordered their flight eight months before but， for some reason， had not been able to get seats together． No one else on the plane wanted to move and the bride（新娘） was in tears．

I turned to my husband and told him what I heard． We agreed without thinking twice and I called the flight attendant over to tell her that we would be happy to give up our seats for this young couple， The flight attendant seemed shocked and amazed and said． "Really？ Are you sure？"

We said． "Sure!"

So， we moved to the back of the plane， I was in a middle seat in the back part and my husband，who is 63， in the window seat of the last row of the plane．

   The flight attendants were very thankful for what we had done and cared for us carefully even though we were no longer sitting in first class， and we both made friends with the people sitting around us and had a great flight． I had to go back to the front of the plane to get a forgotten object back during the flight and noticed that the young couple were sitting very close together， happily sipping champagne （品尝香槟）．

Some cool inventions are listed in Science Magazine's 25best inventions of 2018． They are "making the world better， smarter and in some cases a little more fun"， according to the magazine's website． Do you want to lean more about some of the inventions？ Let's find out．

   ● Spark

Spark is a new type of drones （飞行器） made by a Chinese company （公司） in Shenzhen called DJI． It can help people take photos and videos． Spark might be the smallest drone ever made． When folded， it is as small as a can of cola （可乐罐）． The coolest part is that users can control the small drone just by using hand gestures（手势）． For example， if you wave （挥动） your hand from left to right， the drone will fly in the same direction． When you want it to land， you just put your hand out． The drone will come to you and land on your hand．

   ● Social Robot

Robots may not be good communicators． But Jibo， made by US company Jibo Inc， may be different． With a big， round head and round， fat body， Jibo looks like a cartoon character． As soon as you say， "Hey， Jibo．" It will giggle（咯咯地笑）， dance and turn to face you． When it talks to you， it moves its head and body naturally to communicate with you． Although it has no eyes or mouth， Jibo uses animated icons （生动的表情）， such as a smile icon， to show emotions． Right now Jibo can only do some basic things， like taking photos or reading the news to you． But it may learn to do more in the future．
