What is kindness then? To be exact, kindness is the quality of being friendly. If we give up our seats on the bus, help a classmate solve a math problem, or welcome a new member into a group activity, we are showing kindness. Actually, these acts are done without expectation of reward (回报). We begin to realise that while helping others, we’re in fact helping ourselves. Showing kindness benefits us in different ways. It helps us know about ourselves. It develops our problem-solving skills. It also gives us the chance to be thankful. We can never imagine the power of one simple act of kindness. It may change our day. And that day may change our week. That week may change the rest of the year—or even our whole life. In short, we rise by lifting others. Here are some teenagers’ acts of kindness. Linda: I sat next to a new student at lunch. I was pleased because I made her day. Kayla: In order to raise money and protect wild animals, I held a singing competition. Iwas proud of it. Peter: I opened the door for an old lady. I felt happy because I could help other people. 1．What is kindness according to the text? 2．List two benefits of showing kindness. 3．What did Linda do to show her kindness? 4．What do you think of Peter’s act of kindness? Write 30 words or more. （二） （2023·辽宁鞍山·中考真题）阅读短文，根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 Nowadays, more and more service robots have become a part of people’s daily life. According to a recent report, the average annual (年均的) growth of the Chinese robotics industry (机器人行业) over the past five years has reached 22 percent. Many Chinese companies have made robotic dogs. For example, one company in Hangzhou made a robotic dog and it could carry 3 kilograms of things and it could serve as a running partner for its owner. In 2021, a company also made a robot that was able to “see” and “sense” its environment with face and body recognition (识别) technology. The robot could follow its owner and avoid obstacles (障碍) automatically (自动地). Robots are now helping people in many ways. They are widely used in houses, acting as people’s personal helpers, such as robot cleaners and cooking robots. In education, robots are used as great teachers and coaches. Recently, a board game robot was used in Guangzhou. Besides teaching students to play Chinese chess, it could also tell the culture and rules of the game. Robots are also used in elderly (年长的) care. Some products that could improve old people’s self-care have already been in use on the market. Now, service robots are made to offer more convenient and intelligent services. Our life will be different with the help of these robots in the future. Do you think so? 5．What percent has the average annual growth of the Chinese robotics industry reached over the past five years? 6．Is there a robot that can “see” and “sense” its environment? 7．According to Paragraph 3, what can robots do in houses as people’s personal helpers? 8．In which ways can robots be used according to the passage? 9．What do you think of service robots? （三） （2023·辽宁朝阳·中考真题）根据短文内容，简略回答所提出的问题。 Li Huanying(李桓英) was honored as “The most beautiful female striver (最美巾帼奋斗者)” in 2022.

After she had practiced the skills for 10 years, she started her own shop in 1992. On Yang’s kites, people can see not only common shapes like butterflies and swallows (燕子), but also some prints telling ancient Chinese tales and history.

In her spare time, she also travels to different countries including Germany, Australia, the US and New Zealand to tell people about Chinese stories seen on kites and the traditional ways of making kites. “I’m an inheritor of the culture.

It is the Year of the Rabbit this year. Because rabbits are gentle and smart, they are very popular with people from all over the world. In China, rabbits are considered to be a lucky sign. That’s because rabbits can have many babies in the nature, even in terrible conditions. In the past, people thought the more children they had, the better their life would be. The rabbit can make people think of the moon. Ancient Chinese people believed a rabbit was living on the moon. It is called the Moon Rabbit and helps Chang’e, a goddess who is widely known in China, to make medicine. Similarly, rabbits are seen to be lucky in Western culture. There are some traditions about how to get the rabbit’s good luck for yourself. For example, a rabbit’s foot is one of the most famous symbols of good luck and the person who holds it is supposed to be lucky. Also, people usually say the word “rabbit” on the first morning of every month. They’re looking forward to bringing themselves good luck for this whole month. Now it’s the Year of the Rabbit.

Have you ever wondered why your favorite food tastes so delicious? The answer is about your tongue（舌头）and nose. There are some taste buds（味蕾）on your tongue. They give you the sense of taste. How do the taste buds work? In fact, there are many tiny hairs on the taste buds. These tiny hairs send messages to your brain about how something tastes. In this way, you know whether it is sweet, sour, bitter or salty. A person has about 10,000 taste buds. They keep working all the time when we enjoy our food. The taste buds don’t always stay the same. They are replaced（更新）every two weeks or so. However, as a person gets older, some of these taste buds don’t get replaced. The old may only have 5,000 working taste buds. That’s why some foods may taste stronger for you than they do for the old. Besides your tongue, your nose also helps you learn about the taste of food. Sometimes,  strong smells can even confuse（使困惑）your sense of taste. Try holding an onion under your nose while eating an apple. What do you taste? So next time you enjoy salty pizza and sweet ice cream, thank your tongue and your nose. Without them, you won’t have any sense of taste at all. Without the sense of taste, life will be boring. 41．Why does your favorite food taste good? 42．How do the taste buds work according to the passage? 43．How often are the taste buds replaced? 44．Does only your tongue help you learn about the taste of food? 45．How will people feel if they don’t have the sense of taste? （十） （2022·辽宁大连·中考真题）阅读下面短文，根报短文内容，回答下列问题。 Seeing changes in China ①It was a warm spring day in 2021.

One Sunday morning, they walked in the forest and found a big, deep hole. Mike looked at it and said, “Wow! That looks deep.” “It sure does,” said Dave. “Let’s drop some stones into the hole. We can count until we hear the stones hit the bottom.” They threw some stones and waited. There was no sound. Mike said, “Wow! That is really deep. Let’s throw some big rocks down there. Those should make a noise.” So they picked up a few soccer-sized rocks and threw them into the hole. Again, they heard nothing. They looked at each other in surprise. Mike found a big log (木头).

The story of silk started in China over 4, 000 years ago. One story says a silkworm’s cocoon (茧) fell into a woman’s teacup. It then opened into a single, unbroken thread (线). This was an important discovery. The Chinese learned they could use the cocoons to make cloth that was both beautiful to look at and soft to touch. Making silk was a protected secret in China for many years. In other countries, silk was very valuable. Often it was worth more than gold. It was said that the secret was finally given away when a queen left China for India. In her hair, she secretly carried many silkworms. By the year 1 A．D．, silk was sold as far west as Rome, and all along the Silk Road. Finally, around the year 300, silk also travelled from China to Japan. In 1522, the Spanish brought silkworms to Mexico. Today people around the world still make many beautiful things from silk. But silk isn’t only beautiful. It looks easy to break, but actually it’s very strong. For example, people have already used it to make bicycle wheels. And some doctors even use silk threads in hospital.

Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river flowing through. That plays an important part in the lives of its people. Most rivers begin in mountains and end in the oceans. Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the USA is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation. Ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. The greatest of all for navigation (航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it. Besides transportation, rivers give food to eat, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun and recreation for people who live along their banks. In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and create a lake from behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their field but also to make electricity for their homes and industries. However, large cities and industries that are located upon rivers often make problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits of the natural resources. 9．How many rivers does almost every country have flowing through? 10．How long have people used water for transportation? 11．Why do engineers sometimes build a dam and create a lake? 12．Do you think it is important to protect water resources? Why or why not? Write 30 words or more. （四） （2024·辽宁沈阳·三模）阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 Jackie,14 ★Sofia Marconi, my friend Bia’s Mum, is probably the most amazing person I know. She’s also extremely brave.

They devoted (献身) themselves into the development of our country. It’s they who brought us today’s peaceful life. As modern young people, we all have our own dreams. And it’s our passion that drives us forward. I have a friend who loves music and often posts his own works on the Internet. He receives lots of followers and praise. He can not only develop his interest, but also have an influence on others. And I realized that millions of young people like him are now bravely chasing (追逐) their dreams. At the same time, we have to take up our social responsibility. No matter when a big accident happens, there are always armed police officers around the country fighting there. Among them, some are even 00s. In addition, it’s touching to see many people offer help online by donating money and clothes. Young people have a sense of responsibility to stand up in the face of difficulties at any time. By being passionate and responsible, we should show the world that under the leadership of the CPC, Chinese youth will certainly shoulder the heavy task of national development. 17．What did millions of brave people bring us about 100 years ago? 18．What does the writer believe youngsters should do according to Paragraph 2? 19．How does the writer feel about people donating money and clothes? 20．What spirit do you think we Chinese youth should have?

I recently spoke with four American students, Caden Sorensen, Chandler Stark, Fatima Abdi and Noelani Velasco Polley, to get their thoughts on this question. In 2045, the kids think, humans will be able to live on Mars. They suggest that everyone should spend a few years on the red planet to give the Earth a “rest”. “And when we come back, we must try not to pollute as much,” says Stark. But Mars is not yet ready for human habitation (居住). The kids agree that immediate action must be taken to clean up the Earth. “It’s time to fix it now,” says Sorensen. “It’s not going to fix itself.” The kids do not just care about progress in space exploration. They are also interested in the future jobs. Stark hopes to compose (创作) music for TV shows one day. Abdi wants to be a business owner. Sorensen dreams about becoming a lawyer. Polley wants to be a scientist. “I don’ t think there will be a lot of fast-food jobs,” said Abdi. She also thinks that everything is going to get a lot more expensive. “People will have to look for higher-paying jobs.” Many jobs, the kids predict (预测), will be replaced by robots. “There’ll be no more factory jobs because robots can just do everything,” says Stark. But they believe the power to shape the future is in human hands. The world will be a better place, but of course, “we need to work hard, and we all need to learn to be kind to others.” 21．In the kids’opinion, where will humans be able to live in 2045? 22．What is Sorensen’s idea about the Earth? 23．Why does Stark say there will be no more factory jobs? 24．What do you think the world will look like in 2045?

Earthquakes, typhoons (台风), and floods are common natural disasters that can cause terrible damage (破坏) and bring serious threats (威胁) to safety. Earthquakes suddenly shake the ground, often without warning. To stay safe during an earthquake, people had better “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops. You can find a strong table to hide under and hold on. Typhoons, known as hurricanes or cyclones in other parts of the world, can lead to strong winds and too much rain. Before a typhoon arrives, storing necessary things like food, water, and batteries is important. Floods can happen when rivers run over because of too much rain. To prepare well, avoid building homes in the areas where floods often happen and place important electrical appliances (电器) up off the ground in your home. Having an emergency plan is also a must. By understanding these disasters and taking action, communities and people can reduce the risk of harm and recover (恢复) more quickly after disasters happen. 25．How many kinds of natural disasters are mentioned in the text? 26．Why are people advised to “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops? 27．What can typhoons cause according to the text? 28．Which other disaster do you know and how can you keep safe in it?

It’s easy to tell that kindness is very important. What is kindness then? To be exact, kindness is the quality of being friendly. If we give up our seats on the bus, help a classmate solve a math problem, or welcome a new member into a group activity, we are showing kindness. Actually, these acts are done without expectation of reward (回报). We begin to realise that while helping others, we’re in fact helping ourselves. Showing kindness benefits us in different ways. It helps us know about ourselves. It develops our problem-solving skills. It also gives us the chance to be thankful. We can never imagine the power of one simple act of kindness. It may change our day. And that day may change our week. That week may change the rest of the year—or even our whole life. In short, we rise by lifting others. Here are some teenagers’ acts of kindness. Linda: I sat next to a new student at lunch. I was pleased because I made her day.

Think about your favorite food. Have you ever wondered why your favorite food tastes so delicious? The answer is about your tongue（舌头）and nose. There are some taste buds（味蕾）on your tongue. They give you the sense of taste. How do the taste buds work? In fact, there are many tiny hairs on the taste buds. These tiny hairs send messages to your brain about how something tastes. In this way, you know whether it is sweet, sour, bitter or salty. A person has about 10,000 taste buds. They keep working all the time when we enjoy our food. The taste buds don’t always stay the same. They are replaced（更新）every two weeks or so. However, as a person gets older, some of these taste buds don’t get replaced. The old may only have 5,000 working taste buds. That’s why some foods may taste stronger for you than they do for the old. Besides your tongue, your nose also helps you learn about the taste of food. Sometimes,  strong smells can even confuse（使困惑）your sense of taste. Try holding an onion under your nose while eating an apple. What do you taste? So next time you enjoy salty pizza and sweet ice cream, thank your tongue and your nose. Without them, you won’t have any sense of taste at all. Without the sense of taste, life will be boring. 41．Why does your favorite food taste good? 42．How do the taste buds work according to the passage? 43．How often are the taste buds replaced? 44．Does only your tongue help you learn about the taste of food? 45．How will people feel if they don’t have the sense of taste? 【答案】41．Because of your tongue and nose. 42．There are many tiny hairs on the taste buds. These tiny hairs send messages to your brain about how something tastes. 43．Every two weeks or so. 44．No. 45．They will feel bored. 【导语】本文介绍了关于味觉的相关信息。 41．根据“The answer is about your tongue and nose. There are some taste buds on your tongue. They give you the sense of taste.”可知，是因为舌头和鼻子，它们可以帮助我们品尝食物。故填Because of your tongue and nose. 42．根据“In fact, there are many tiny hairs on the taste buds.

Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river flowing through. That plays an important part in the lives of its people. Most rivers begin in mountains and end in the oceans. Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the USA is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation. Ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. The greatest of all for navigation (航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it. Besides transportation, rivers give food to eat, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun and recreation for people who live along their banks. In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and create a lake from behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their field but also to make electricity for their homes and industries. However, large cities and industries that are located upon rivers often make problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits of the natural resources. 9．How many rivers does almost every country have flowing through? 10．How long have people used water for transportation? 11．Why do engineers sometimes build a dam and create a lake? 12．Do you think it is important to protect water resources? Why or why not? Write 30 words or more. 【答案】9．At least one. 10．Since the beginning of history. 11．To/In order to increase the supply of water for crops. 12．Yes. Because water is the source of life. Without water, there would be no life. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了河流对于人类生活生产的重要性。 9．根据“Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river flowing through.”可知，几乎每个国家都至少有一条河流流经。故填At least one. 10．根据“Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation.”可知，自历史开始以来，人们就使用河流进行运输。故填Since the beginning of history. 11．根据“In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and create a lake from behind the dam.”可知，工程师有时建造大坝和湖是为了增加农作物的供水量。故填To/In order to increase the supply of water for crops. 12．开放性题目，答案合理即可，参考答案为：Yes.

I recently spoke with four American students, Caden Sorensen, Chandler Stark, Fatima Abdi and Noelani Velasco Polley, to get their thoughts on this question. In 2045, the kids think, humans will be able to live on Mars. They suggest that everyone should spend a few years on the red planet to give the Earth a “rest”. “And when we come back, we must try not to pollute as much,” says Stark. But Mars is not yet ready for human habitation (居住). The kids agree that immediate action must be taken to clean up the Earth. “It’s time to fix it now,” says Sorensen. “It’s not going to fix itself.” The kids do not just care about progress in space exploration. They are also interested in the future jobs. Stark hopes to compose (创作) music for TV shows one day. Abdi wants to be a business owner. Sorensen dreams about becoming a lawyer. Polley wants to be a scientist. “I don’ t think there will be a lot of fast-food jobs,” said Abdi. She also thinks that everything is going to get a lot more expensive. “People will have to look for higher-paying jobs.” Many jobs, the kids predict (预测), will be replaced by robots. “There’ll be no more factory jobs because robots can just do everything,” says Stark. But they believe the power to shape the future is in human hands. The world will be a better place, but of course, “we need to work hard, and we all need to learn to be kind to others.” 21．In the kids’opinion, where will humans be able to live in 2045? 22．What is Sorensen’s idea about the Earth? 23．Why does Stark say there will be no more factory jobs? 24．What do you think the world will look like in 2045?

Waste will be given a second life. 【导语】本文介绍了四位美国学生认为2045年的世界将是什么样子。 21．根据“In 2045, the kids think, humans will be able to live on Mars.”可知，孩子们认为，到2045年，人类将能够在火星上生活。故填On Mars. 22．根据Sorensen说的“‘It’s time to fix it now,’ says Sorensen. ‘It’s not going to fix itself.’”可知，Sorensen认为是时候解决问题了，地球不会自我修复。故填It‘’s time to fix it now.

Earthquakes, typhoons (台风), and floods are common natural disasters that can cause terrible damage (破坏) and bring serious threats (威胁) to safety. Earthquakes suddenly shake the ground, often without warning. To stay safe during an earthquake, people had better “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops. You can find a strong table to hide under and hold on. Typhoons, known as hurricanes or cyclones in other parts of the world, can lead to strong winds and too much rain. Before a typhoon arrives, storing necessary things like food, water, and batteries is important. Floods can happen when rivers run over because of too much rain. To prepare well, avoid building homes in the areas where floods often happen and place important electrical appliances (电器) up off the ground in your home. Having an emergency plan is also a must. By understanding these disasters and taking action, communities and people can reduce the risk of harm and recover (恢复) more quickly after disasters happen. 25．How many kinds of natural disasters are mentioned in the text? 26．Why are people advised to “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” until the shaking stops? 27．What can typhoons cause according to the text? 28．Which other disaster do you know and how can you keep safe in it?
