（2018·湖南株洲·统考中考真题）Copenhagen is one of the best places in the world to be a bicyclist but there is a downside — thousands of parked bicycles. Sometimes it gets out of control.
In 2014, when Copenhagen got its Cycle Snake — a new bicycle-only bridge — the city edged even closer to being a cyclists’ paradise.
There are in fact more bicycles in Copenhagen than people, five times as many bicycles as cars, and 400 km of cycle lanes — not shared with cars or pedestrians (行人) — for a city of about 600,000 people.
This has many advantages, such as cleaner air and physical fitness. If only more thought had gone into what happens when riders get off. Cycle parking is a big problem here.
Bikes are often parked on the pavement, taking up pedestrian space and blocking(堵住) entrances to shops and restaurants.
Outside Copenhagen’s central train station, where people often leave their bikes for the weekend, plenty of cyclists are fed up. “There just isn’t enough space,” says Kirsten Hoeholt, a famous artist.
While 95% of cyclists in the city are happy with conditions for cyclists overall, only 29% are satisfied with cycle-parking facilities-down from 40% in 1996.
One of Copenhagen’s is that it has been growing rapidly. About 12,000 people are moving to the city each year, while only 7,000 new cycle parking spaces have been created over the last eight years.
One Dutch idea on its way to Copenhagen is taking away the bikes that are parked in the wrong areas. Leave your bike in the wrong place and you could find that it has been moved to nearby bicycle facilities.
A few years ago, “bike-butlers” were introduced in some areas. The butlers pick up bicycles that have been knocked over, pump air into flat tyres and give the bike-chains a bit of oil, to thank people for parking properly.
6．The last “paradise” in the fourth line means ________.
A．factory B．company C．heaven
7．There are about ________ people in Copenhagen.
A．120,000 B．600,000 C．700,000
8．Which of the following is NOT true?
A．There are in fact more bicycles in Copenhagen than people.
B．Only 29% are satisfied with cycle-parking facilities.
C．About 7,000 people are moving to the city each year.
9．The last paragraph tells us to ________.
A．punish the bicyclists
B．encourage the bicyclists
C．take away the bikes
10．What does the passage mainly tell us? ________
A．The parking of the bikes in Copenhagen.
B．The repairing of the bikes in Copenhagen.
C．The creating of the bikes in Copenhagen.

（2018·广东深圳·统考中考真题）Shenzhen, Jan 1st, 2018-Shenzhen has become the world’s first city to make all its public buses, about 16,359, run on electricity. A total of 12,518 taxis, or 62. 5 percent of all the taxis in the city are electric ones. “We will replace（替换）the rest of the taxis with electric ones by 2020,” said Mr. Chen from the government.
“I have been a driver for twenty years,” said Mr. Zhang, a driver who started to drive e-buses a month ago. “We had several rounds of training and passed strict exams before we were allowed to drive the e-buses.”
The city has built 8,000 charging poles（充电柱）and 501 bus charging stations. “A bus can be fully charged within two hours and the charging poles can serve 300 buses a day at our station. Since the replacement, the bus terminal has become quiet, even as the e-buses are entering and exiting the station,” said Mr. Guan, the manager of Qinghu Bus Station.
The use of e-buses and e-taxis plays an important role in improving air quality. In a year, the e-buses use 72.9 percent less energy than the traditional ones. The e-taxis will save the energy of 119,000 tons of standard coal.
Shenzhen was one of the first 13 cities to take part in the National New-energy Vehicle Program（NNVP）. In 2017, the city spent 3.3 billion yuan on e-buses and the charging equipment. The city also encourages people to buy new-energy cars or e-cars by reducing their payment.
11．How many e-taxis were there in Shenzhen in January, 2018?
A．8,000 B．12,518 C．16, 359 D．11,900
12．What is the influence of the replacement according to Mr. Guan?
A．It saves 72. 9 percent energy. B．It helps to improve air quality.
C．The bus station has become quiet. D．People will pay more if they buy e-cars.
13．What can we infer（推断）from the passage?
A．It is not easy to be an e-driver. B．Shenzhen is the first to use e-taxis.
C．13 cities are in the NNVP besides Shenzhen. D．There are 300 charging poles at each bus station.
14．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．E-buses and e-taxis can save more energy in Shenzhen.
B．Shenzhen took part in the National New-energy Vehicle Program.
C．It is fast and convenient for the e-buses to be changed in Shenzhen.
D．Shenzhen is replacing its public buses and taxis with electric ones.

（2017·浙江湖州·统考中考真题）To the Editor(编辑)
The Smaller, the Better!After reading the article” The Benefits(益处) of Living Small”, I decided that my husband and I should sell our 2500 square-foot home to move into a 300 square-foot home.
We have no children, yet we have five bedrooms, three bathrooms, two kitchens, and a huge living room. We can never afford to take time off from work to enjoy the things in life that we really want to, because our bills are so high. But when we downsize, I will be able to leave my job, and won’t have to spend hours each week cleaning!
I’m sure our new little home will encourage us to get outside more often, spend more time with friends and family, and make our world more beautiful by using less energy and preventing further urban sprawl(城市扩张). I think all owners of large homes should consider going smaller!
From Jane Adams
        ________
I disagree entirely with the one-sided article you published last month, “The Benefits of Living Small”.
Little homes such as the ones the writer wrote about in the article cost a small part of what normal family homes cost, and our economy(经济)is sure to feel the influence of this. Many educated people will experience brain drain(人才外流)，not to mention all the construction workers who will be left jobless.
The “simple way of life” the writer speaks of in his article is nothing but simple. However, working hard and living in large, comfortable homes is something people all around the world try their best for. Before we give up the American dream, I suggest all readers reconsider selling off their biggest possession!
From John Baker
15．________ made Jane Adams decide to sell her big home.
A．The environment B．An article
C．John Baker D．An editor

（2017·辽宁沈阳·统考中考真题）As an exchange student, I must admit (承认) that at first America was a big culture shock for me.
I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host parents organized a lot of activities in my spare time so that I wouldn’t miss home or feel lonely.
However, life was hard to get used to. My main problem was with the language. I failed to understand much in the first few weeks because everyone spoke so fast. Though I managed to get used to it, I still have problems because they used a lot of idioms(习语).
Another difference was with the food. My host family always had bread, potatoes and salad for meals. I really miss the dumplings, rice and delicious dishes from home.
School was a big shock too. They do not require students to wear uniforms, so students can wear almost whatever they like. Some students have strange hairstyles (发型) as well. Some students even have pink or purple hair!
— By Brad Li
My dream was to see some real snow, so during the Christmas holiday, we took our passport (护照) and flew over the Pacific to Calgary, Canada. We took a bus to a ski resort in the Canadian Rockies. As the bus climbed through the mountains, we saw the thick snow on the trees. I was dying to get out and play with it. At last, we reached the resort and quickly jumped out of the bus. This was our first experience with snow. We were like little children — we made snow balls, and threw them at one another. Then we check in at the hotel.
The next day, we put on our ski suits and gloves, took our skis and went outside onto the snow. Our instructor took us to a gentle slope (斜坡), and showed us some basic skills. To be honest, the first lesson was not a great success. I kept on falling over, and I had to hold on to a rope to keep my balance(平衡).
However, the next day, I only fell over a few times, and I managed to do a few rapid runs. I felt pleased with myself, and my instructor told me I was doing much better. Although it was very cold, I spent most of my holiday skiing. I had a wonderful time.
