四、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）
阅读下面的材料，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
There are many heartwarming stories on the Internet. Recently, a restaurant owner was surprised to see sweet and encouraging messages with an online order. We also saw the news that a kind customer left a tip (小费) for each of seven workers at his favorite restaurant. In another such unbelievable act of kindness, a girl made a birthday cake for her lonely neighbor. The sweet story of the girl will surely leave you smiling. Take a look at it here.
A post (帖子) was shared on the Internet by Genien, who is a food blogger in Chicago. Her post received thousands of likes and hundreds of comments (评论).
In the post, Genien shared the story of how her daughter came up with the idea of surprising their next door neighbor, who lived alone. Her daughter Danya went over to talk with the neighbor when he mentioned his birthday. Danya then added it to her calendar. She planned to make a cake for him for several weeks.
On the neighbor’s birthday, Danya bought the ingredients (原料) for the cake before heading to school. After school, she made the cake and took it over to him. The smiles on both of them were enough to light up a room! “I’m so proud to say she’s my daughter,” wrote the proud mother in the post. “I hope more people can join in helping others.”
There are many different ways for us to pass on a little kindness. The way we decide on how to show kindness will be up to ourselves, but the results will be the same—we will be passing on joy, love, and lifting spirits!

The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics were more than a sporting event. They were also a show for science and technology. They are helping athletes (运动员) become “faster, higher, stronger” and offering you a great game-watching experience with the support of 5G. Let’s look at some technologies behind the Beijing Winter Olympics.
The fastest ice
The National Speed Skating Oval is said to have “the fastest ice”, as 12 new Olympic records and one world record were set there. The secret is new ice-making technology. Liquid carbon dioxide (液体二氧化碳) is put under the ice to keep temperature changes on the ice surface in half a degree. That keeps the ice a level surface and it is easier to skate on.
“Seeing” the wind
In events like freestyle skiing and ski jumping, the direction and speed of the wind can have great influence on an athlete’s performance. A Chinese research team developed a system to measure wind. The system uses AI technology. It allows athletes and coaches to “see” wind with real-time data (数据) on their
High-speed cameras
During the speed skating race, athletes can reach speeds of up to 18 meters per second. To catch every exciting moment of the competition, Lie Bao has been used for the event.
Lie Bao, is a 4K high-definition (高清) camera system developed by China Media Group (CMG). It can record speeds of up to 25 meters per second. It closely follows the athletes' movements and catches different scenes during speed skating, according to Shanghai Plus.

In this modern age, most of us have forgotten to be patient and get angry very quickly over minor things like a traffic jam, a baby crying and such things. It often seems so easy to get what we want right away that when we have to wait even a little while, it seems like we are waiting for ages. We used to be happy to wait 10-15 minutes it took to reheat food in the oven (烤箱), but now we’re impatient when waiting two minutes it takes in the microwave.
With the convenience provided by modern society, is patience still a virtue (美德) in the fast-paced world? To begin with, I’d like to share the meaning of the word “patience”. Generally it means being able to tolerate delay without getting impatient. However, it isn’t necessarily a passive activity. It takes an active behavior, knowing when to take action and when not to.
So I would argue that patience is still-and always-a virtue. Sure, I used to be one of those who often stared at the microwave for the full two minutes it took to heat my food. And in the end, the food tasted bad. If I had had the patience to heat the food properly in the oven, I would have enjoyed a delicious meal.
Actually the benefits of patience go beyond just heating up our food. Patience is an exercise in self-control which shows that we can exercise good judgment. Lack of patience can cause us to make wrong decisions that negatively affect our health and happiness, waste our time, put us under a lot of stress and affect our relationships in a very negative way.
Everything in life happens for a reason. Sometimes we face an obstacle (障碍) because we need to grow in ways we didn’t realize. It’s not always obvious when that was happening, but with patience we will soon see clearly why it occurred (发生) and what we were meant to learn from it.
Taking time to think about our actions and being patient are a small price to pay when we determine the best possible solution to any problems.
36. The author uses the example of reheating food to show that ________.
A. more people lack patience now B. high technology brings more benefits
C. people have no time to enjoy the meal D. the fast-paced life makes people stressed
37. The underlined word “convenience” in paragraph 2 probably means “________”.
A. 谈话 B. 便利 C. 竞赛 D. 优势
38. What could be inferred from paragraph 4?
A. People under stress are more likely to get angry. B. Patient people are less likely to meet difficulties.
C. People with self-control are easier to succeed. D. Patient people tend to make better decisions.
39. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 5?
A. A wise man learns from experience.
B. A brave man is not afraid of challenges.
C. A man should be patient to deal with difficulties.
D. A man should find out reasons for things occurred.
40. What can be a suitable title for the text?
AThe causes of impatience B. Is patience really a virtue?
C. Ways to exercise patience D. What does the word patience mean?

Different gestures (手势) mean different things in different countries. Sometimes a gesture that is polite in one country is not polite in another and should not be used. Different meanings of gestures can also cause problems in understanding what another person is trying to say. A gesture that many people do not understand is one that uses the thumb. Most westerners will sometimes show that they like something by holding out a closed hand with the thumb lifting in the air. This is called give someone or something “the thumbs up". Often, only one thumb is used, so it should be “the thumb up”.
The usual explanation (解释) for the origin of this gesture is not really correct. It says that in ancient Roman times, when people were pleased with the way a gladiator (角斗士) had fought, they showed their thumbs up. When they were not pleased, they gave the thumbs down. When a gladiator was given the thumbs up, the emperor allowed him to live. When a gladiator was given the thumbs down, the emperor ordered him to be killed.
The truth is, however, it was translated into a wrong meaning by mistake. If people wanted to save the gladiator they put out their hands and hid their thumbs in their hands. If they wanted the gladiator to die, they pointed their thumbs straight at him.
56. Westerners lift their thumbs when they ___________.
A. want someone to die B. like something
C. want to go to a playground D. want someone to live
57. Most people think that in ancient Rome, “thumbs up” meant that __________.
A. the emperor could die B. the people wanted the gladiator to live
C. the fighting could continue D. the people were not pleased
58. In fact, if people wanted a gladiator to live, they __________.
A. hid their thumbs B. pointed their thumbs down
C. lifted their thumbs up D. pointed their thumbs at him
59. From the article we know that ___________.

B. a friendly gesture is always the same in different countries
C. the meaning of “thumbs up” is the same both now and the past
D. we should often use the thumbs

阅读下面的材料, 从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Good evening, parents, grandparents, uncles and friends!
Thank you all for coming on this very special day for every student on this stage. I know how proud you must be. As we have grown over the years, there are many steps and stages we all have gone through. From learning our shapes and colors, to getting our first progress in middle school, or how we explained to our parents why we skipped school （逃课） because the headmaster called home. As we remember these days, things that we’ve done will be with us forever. But this is only the start of our journey. To graduate is one more step we’ve taken in our lives.
Now I would like to thank everyone who has helped me get this far. First of all thank you to all the teachers. None of us would be here without you always pushing our studying abilities to the fullest. My elder brother Johnson always said "If anyone is mean to you, I'll take care of it." My mom, thank you for always believing in me and putting up with（容忍）me. And last but not least, my dad, for proving to me that I always need to take responsibility（责任） for my actions and deal with the results. Thank you all! I love you. And I will never fail to be thankful to the people around me.
Lastly, I want to give some advice to all my classmates! The end of junior high school is the beginning of a new life. Many of us may think, "This is as good as it gets!" but the future holds a bigger plan for all of us. We will make mistakes along the way, but the key is to learn from our mistakes and never give up. So good luck and congratulations to the class of 2020. We did it!

Nowadays, many young people enjoy communicating with others online. They do this through social networking websites. However, the internet may be a dangerous place, and these young people may not even realize it.
The key to being safe online is to keep certain pieces of information private. If you do any banking online, for example, it is important to note that your date of birth may be used by banks to identify （识别）you. Banks need to know your ID number and your address as well, but to check your identity, they might ask you for your date of birth. If a criminal were to gain access to（进入） your account（账号） at a bank, the one thing that he would not have would be your birth date. These days, however, a lot of people put their dates of birth on social networking websites so that their friends will wish them a happy birthday. Unluckily, doing so could end up getting them into trouble.
Another way people share too much information is by mentioning inappropriate （不合适的）things that they have done. For employers who worry about the reputation （声望）of their company, they would prefer not to see photos publicly posted of their employees doing anything inappropriate. However, many young people today enjoy gaining attention by posting some pictures that may not be completely acceptable on the internet.
So the key to being safe online is to limit what you share. Remember that the whole world can see it if you post your private information online.
51. According to the passage, what is the key to being safe online?
A. Avoiding doing banking online B. Checking your identity regularly.
C. Keeping certain information private D. Stopping using social networking websites
52. A lot of people put their dates of birth online in order to ___________.
A. Have fun B. receive birthday greetings
C. do banking D. save money

A. Banks hardly ask you for your date of birth.
B. All employees are worried about their company’s reputation.
C. It is safe to share as much information as possible online with your friends.
D. A criminal cannot gain access to your bank account without your date of birth.
55. By writing this passage, the writer mainly wanted to suggest that people should ___________.
A. limit the information they share online B. keep their home address secret
C. never trust their employer D. stay away from social networking websites

There are many heartwarming stories on the Internet. Recently, a restaurant owner was surprised to see sweet and encouraging messages with an online order. We also saw the news that a kind customer left a tip (小费) for each of seven workers at his favorite restaurant. In another such unbelievable act of kindness, a girl made a birthday cake for her lonely neighbor. The sweet story of the girl will surely leave you smiling. Take a look at it here.
A post (帖子) was shared on the Internet by Genien, who is a food blogger in Chicago. Her post received thousands of likes and hundreds of comments (评论).
In the post, Genien shared the story of how her daughter came up with the idea of surprising their next door neighbor, who lived alone. Her daughter Danya went over to talk with the neighbor when he mentioned his birthday. Danya then added it to her calendar. She planned to make a cake for him for several weeks.
On the neighbor’s birthday, Danya bought the ingredients (原料) for the cake before heading to school. After school, she made the cake and took it over to him. The smiles on both of them were enough to light up a room! “I’m so proud to say she’s my daughter,” wrote the proud mother in the post. “I hope more people can join in helping others.”

The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics were more than a sporting event. They were also a show for science and technology. They are helping athletes (运动员) become “faster, higher, stronger” and offering you a great game-watching experience with the support of 5G. Let’s look at some technologies behind the Beijing Winter Olympics.
The fastest ice
The National Speed Skating Oval is said to have “the fastest ice”, as 12 new Olympic records and one world record were set there. The secret is new ice-making technology. Liquid carbon dioxide (液体二氧化碳) is put under the ice to keep temperature changes on the ice surface in half a degree. That keeps the ice a level surface and it is easier to skate on.
“Seeing” the wind
In events like freestyle skiing and ski jumping, the direction and speed of the wind can have great influence on an athlete’s performance. A Chinese research team developed a system to measure wind. The system uses AI technology. It allows athletes and coaches to “see” wind with real-time data (数据) on their
High-speed cameras
During the speed skating race, athletes can reach speeds of up to 18 meters per second. To catch every exciting moment of the competition, Lie Bao has been used for the event.
Lie Bao, is a 4K high-definition (高清) camera system developed by China Media Group (CMG). It can record speeds of up to 25 meters per second. It closely follows the athletes' movements and catches different scenes during speed skating, according to Shanghai Plus.

In this modern age, most of us have forgotten to be patient and get angry very quickly over minor things like a traffic jam, a baby crying and such things. It often seems so easy to get what we want right away that when we have to wait even a little while, it seems like we are waiting for ages. We used to be happy to wait 10-15 minutes it took to reheat food in the oven (烤箱), but now we’re impatient when waiting two minutes it takes in the microwave.
With the convenience provided by modern society, is patience still a virtue (美德) in the fast-paced world? To begin with, I’d like to share the meaning of the word “patience”. Generally it means being able to tolerate delay without getting impatient. However, it isn’t necessarily a passive activity. It takes an active behavior, knowing when to take action and when not to.
So I would argue that patience is still-and always-a virtue. Sure, I used to be one of those who often stared at the microwave for the full two minutes it took to heat my food. And in the end, the food tasted bad. If I had had the patience to heat the food properly in the oven, I would have enjoyed a delicious meal.
Actually the benefits of patience go beyond just heating up our food. Patience is an exercise in self-control which shows that we can exercise good judgment. Lack of patience can cause us to make wrong decisions that negatively affect our health and happiness, waste our time, put us under a lot of stress and affect our relationships in a very negative way.
Everything in life happens for a reason. Sometimes we face an obstacle (障碍) because we need to grow in ways we didn’t realize. It’s not always obvious when that was happening, but with patience we will soon see clearly why it occurred (发生) and what we were meant to learn from it.
Taking time to think about our actions and being patient are a small price to pay when we determine the best possible solution to any problems.
36. The author uses the example of reheating food to show that ________.
A. more people lack patience now B. high technology brings more benefits
C. people have no time to enjoy the meal D. the fast-paced life makes people stressed
37. The underlined word “convenience” in paragraph 2 probably means “________”.
A. 谈话 B. 便利 C. 竞赛 D. 优势
38. What could be inferred from paragraph 4?
A. People under stress are more likely to get angry. B. Patient people are less likely to meet difficulties.
C. People with self-control are easier to succeed. D. Patient people tend to make better decisions.
39. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 5?
A. A wise man learns from experience.
B. A brave man is not afraid of challenges.
C. A man should be patient to deal with difficulties.
D. A man should find out reasons for things occurred.
40. What can be a suitable title for the text?
AThe causes of impatience B. Is patience really a virtue?
C. Ways to exercise patience D. What does the word patience mean?

Different gestures (手势) mean different things in different countries. Sometimes a gesture that is polite in one country is not polite in another and should not be used. Different meanings of gestures can also cause problems in understanding what another person is trying to say. A gesture that many people do not understand is one that uses the thumb. Most westerners will sometimes show that they like something by holding out a closed hand with the thumb lifting in the air. This is called give someone or something “the thumbs up". Often, only one thumb is used, so it should be “the thumb up”.
The usual explanation (解释) for the origin of this gesture is not really correct. It says that in ancient Roman times, when people were pleased with the way a gladiator (角斗士) had fought, they showed their thumbs up. When they were not pleased, they gave the thumbs down. When a gladiator was given the thumbs up, the emperor allowed him to live. When a gladiator was given the thumbs down, the emperor ordered him to be killed.
The truth is, however, it was translated into a wrong meaning by mistake. If people wanted to save the gladiator they put out their hands and hid their thumbs in their hands. If they wanted the gladiator to die, they pointed their thumbs straight at him.
56. Westerners lift their thumbs when they ___________.
A. want someone to die B. like something
C. want to go to a playground D. want someone to live
57. Most people think that in ancient Rome, “thumbs up” meant that __________.
A. the emperor could die B. the people wanted the gladiator to live
C. the fighting could continue D. the people were not pleased
58. In fact, if people wanted a gladiator to live, they __________.
A. hid their thumbs B. pointed their thumbs down
C. lifted their thumbs up D. pointed their thumbs at him
59. From the article we know that ___________.

C. the meaning of “thumbs up” is the same both now and the past
D. we should often use the thumbs

Good evening, parents, grandparents, uncles and friends!
Thank you all for coming on this very special day for every student on this stage. I know how proud you must be. As we have grown over the years, there are many steps and stages we all have gone through. From learning our shapes and colors, to getting our first progress in middle school, or how we explained to our parents why we skipped school （逃课） because the headmaster called home. As we remember these days, things that we’ve done will be with us forever. But this is only the start of our journey. To graduate is one more step we’ve taken in our lives.
Now I would like to thank everyone who has helped me get this far. First of all thank you to all the teachers. None of us would be here without you always pushing our studying abilities to the fullest. My elder brother Johnson always said "If anyone is mean to you, I'll take care of it." My mom, thank you for always believing in me and putting up with（容忍）me. And last but not least, my dad, for proving to me that I always need to take responsibility（责任） for my actions and deal with the results. Thank you all! I love you. And I will never fail to be thankful to the people around me.
Lastly, I want to give some advice to all my classmates! The end of junior high school is the beginning of a new life. Many of us may think, "This is as good as it gets!" but the future holds a bigger plan for all of us. We will make mistakes along the way, but the key is to learn from our mistakes and never give up. So good luck and congratulations to the class of 2020. We did it!

Nowadays, many young people enjoy communicating with others online. They do this through social networking websites. However, the internet may be a dangerous place, and these young people may not even realize it.
The key to being safe online is to keep certain pieces of information private. If you do any banking online, for example, it is important to note that your date of birth may be used by banks to identify （识别）you. Banks need to know your ID number and your address as well, but to check your identity, they might ask you for your date of birth. If a criminal were to gain access to（进入） your account（账号） at a bank, the one thing that he would not have would be your birth date. These days, however, a lot of people put their dates of birth on social networking websites so that their friends will wish them a happy birthday. Unluckily, doing so could end up getting them into trouble.
Another way people share too much information is by mentioning inappropriate （不合适的）things that they have done. For employers who worry about the reputation （声望）of their company, they would prefer not to see photos publicly posted of their employees doing anything inappropriate. However, many young people today enjoy gaining attention by posting some pictures that may not be completely acceptable on the internet.
So the key to being safe online is to limit what you share. Remember that the whole world can see it if you post your private information online.
51. According to the passage, what is the key to being safe online?
A. Avoiding doing banking online B. Checking your identity regularly.
C. Keeping certain information private D. Stopping using social networking websites
52. A lot of people put their dates of birth online in order to ___________.
A. Have fun B. receive birthday greetings
C. do banking D. save money
53. According to the passage, some employers do not want to see their employees post anything about ___________ online.

C. the company D. their dates of birth
54. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Banks hardly ask you for your date of birth.
B. All employees are worried about their company’s reputation.
C. It is safe to share as much information as possible online with your friends.
D. A criminal cannot gain access to your bank account without your date of birth.
55. By writing this passage, the writer mainly wanted to suggest that people should ___________.
A. limit the information they share online B. keep their home address secret
C. never trust their employer D. stay away from social networking websites
