2022年中考阅读冲刺练习8A)Every year landslides cause 25 to 50 deaths and $2 billion in damage in the United States. And in December, a single event killed more than 2000 people in the Philippines. Sending workers to stabilize mountainsides using steel bars can help a lot, but it introduces new difficulties because of dust and loosen heavy, dangerous debris from the work. “It’s a quite dangerous job,” says Giorgio Pezzuto of D’ Appolonia, working with eight other companies. Now there may be an answer: a three-ton robot called Roboclimber.“The idea is to operate a machine far away that can do the stabilizing job without a human being near,”says Pezzuto, manager for the project, which is supported by a European organization. Engineers say that the machine will be faster and cheaper than manual labor. The robot, a large radio-controlled four-legged spider, has cost at least $2 million so far. It should be able to climb mountainsides, drill holes and insert steel bars there. Testing should begin in May.1.

If you live near a water park, you may think about getting a season pass. This way you can go as often as you like. Check to see if there are any water parks around you. The prices are usually low. For example, one ticket to Water World, a water park, is only $6. On Saturday and Sunday, just half of the price.Some teenagers like to get a part time job during the summer to make some pocket money. Older teenagers don’t have much trouble finding jobs. You can walk dogs, bring in the newspapers, feed the cats, collect rubbish, water flowers, etc. Because it is summer, many people go on vacation and someone do look after their houses while they are away. You can also think about other jobs you can do for them.Teenagers love freedom. So you would like to go to these places like the mall, movie theaters, the zoo, the beach, picnic, bowling and amusement park instead of staying at home all summer. Then a summer bus pass will be helpful. Such a pass costs only $ 10 for the whole summer. The price is reasonable and also your parents don’t have to always drive.6.

Different windy weather makes us enjoy a different life. You can feel the wind because the air is moving. The faster the air moves, the stronger the wind becomes. When the wand is very strong, it causes a typhoon.In China, the name typhoon has the same pronunciation (发音) as taifang in Putonghha, while in the east of Northern Pacific Ocean, people call it hurricane (题风). Usually people decide the name of a typhoon by is landing (登陆) place.Last month, the 22nd typhoon in 2018 called Mangkhut first came to Philippine and attacked southern China. Very heavy rain came through Gungdong Province, and trees and even buildings fell down in the strong wind. People could hardly go outside, and of course schools were closed for safety reasons. So what can we do if typhoon comes?First, we must know the latest information about a typhoon. Then, we must close the doors and windows closely and remember not to go outside or too far from home. Third, when staying outdoors, always stay far away from the trees. While saying indoors, stick fastening tapes (贴加固胶带) to the windows so that the strong wind will not break the house. Finally, call 110 for help when you are in danger. In fact, people are friendly to nature. For example, they grow trees everywhere and make the land green and so on. So, if we learn more about different disasters (灾难) and remember the skills of keeping ourselves safe, we can live happily with the nature!11.

Like a planet, a comet has no light of its own. It shines from the sunlight it reflects (反射). Like the earth, a comet goes round the sun, but on a much longer path (轨道) than the earth travels. If a comet isn’t a star, what is it then?　   Some scientists think that a large part of a comet is water frozen into pieces of ice and mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock. When sunshine melts (融化) the ice in the comet, great clouds of gas go trailing after it. These clouds, together with the dust, form a long tail.Many people perhaps have seen a comet. However no one knows how many comets there are. There may be millions of comets, but only a few come close enough for us to see.　　An Englishman named Edmund Halley, who lived from 1656 to 1742, found out a lot about the paths that comets take through the sky. Some comets move out of our sight and never come back. Others keep coming back at regular times. A big comet that keeps coming back was named after Halley because he was the one who worked out when it would come back again. Maybe you have ever seen Halley’s Comets because the last time it came close to the sun and the earth was in the year 1986. Then people all over the world were outside at night to look at it. You will probably be able to see Halley’s Comets when it comes near the earth again.16. A comet is like ________.A. sun B. moon C. sunlight D. the earth17.
