Ⅲ.阅读理解

(2018·河北保定二模)I was watching the evening news on TV in my house when I heard someone shouting outside. What happened? I looked out of the window. The dark smoke told me the story.

There must be a fire not far from my house. I called 911 for help once.

When I ran out I heard some people shouting “Fire! Fire！”. Following them for a few minutes, I ran to the house in the corner of the street. It was on fire. The smoke was coming out from the kitchen. A woman was shouting loudly to neighbors for help.

People came quickly. Some helped to bring out the things from the house. Others ran to get water. I joined them at once. All the people worked very hard to put out the fire. A young man climbed with buckets on the top of the kitchen. Suddenly the top fell down and he fell over and got hurt. Then firemen came. They asked all the people to keep away from the burning house.

About ten minutes later, the fire was put out. No one got hurt except the young man. The house owner just lost some things in the kitchen. People helped to save most things in the house.

Ⅳ.任务型阅读

阅读短文，并按要求完成1～5题。

(2019·预测)Learning to understand your mother well is what you should do. Here are the best ways towards a better relationship with her. They are not necessarily surprising, but they have worked for many people. Try them.

• Remember your mother's age

As children, we often forget our mother's age. Knowing our mother's age, not just in numbers of years but in terms of her psychological(心理的) and physical state, often helps us to understand her better.

• Listen to your mother

I have found that sometimes the things my mother told me long ago are pretty useful. If you respect(尊重) her point of view, even if you do not share it, it will help your mother feel close to you.

• Ask your mother about your childhood history

If you are lucky enough to have a living family, think of your life as a jigsaw puzzle(拼图游戏) and ask as many questions as you can to put the picture together. Understanding your childhood history can help you know more clearly who you are, as part of a family which you share with your mother.

Trying to understand our mother is the topic of how we understand ourselves. We should follow the way of her life. When we are able to accept our mother—with all her failings, we can understand her better and it can also help us to know about our shortcomings. Remember that understanding our mother is really about understanding ourselves.

Ⅴ.词语运用

根据短文内容及所给提示，在文中空白处填写一个正确的单词。

(2019·预测)Are you a top student 1. an average(中等的) student? Have you ever admired(羡慕) someone who does everything far 2. (well) than you? Maybe you wondered how he or she could get much more 3.k and skill than you. So you want to be like him or her and try their ways. However, you shouldn't copy their own ways 4. (direct). You must make some changes according to your 5.o situation.

Whatever ways you try, you should remember this. These ways of learning are just something the “top students” often do. Yet you must get to know the 6.t meaning that lies behind them.

Another thing I want to mention is that we must be 7.p . Everything 8. (take) time. No plant can grow into a big tree 9. two or three days. You need to treat it as a seed(种子) or a plant, spend more time on them and stick to them. Don't give them up until you make some 10. p ．

Ⅶ.　　Hi, I'm your neighbor, Janet. I am really sorry to bother you, but I feel very terrible. These days you always sing and play music loudly at midnight. I find it very difficult to fall asleep. Last night you even played loud music until 3：00 in the morning. While you were having fun, I was counting stars and having a bad headache. Now I am studying for an important test. If I can't sleep well at night, I will be very sleepy in class and I can't concentrate on studying. That influences my study a lot. I have no other ideas but to tell you the above. I wonder if you can keep quiet at night. Please understand me and forgive me. If you need any help, call me at any time when I am at home. I am happy to be your neighbor and I hope we can help each other from time to time.

Sincerely，

Janet
