Zhao Chengnan is one of them. When her 22nd birthday was coming, she decided to celebrate it in a special way. She wanted to climb China’s five great mountains in five days. When Zhao was a middle school student, she had an interest in sports and started to ride bikes and climb mountains. So when she talked about climbing the five mountains, her family thought it was a good idea. On April 25, Zhao reached the top of Mount Hua after a four-hour climb. Then she took trains and buses, and even had a two-hour night climb on Mount Song. She then climbed Mount Tai in Shandong and Mount Heng in Shanxi. The most difficult part was climbing Mount Heng in Hunan. “It wasn’t difficult to climb, but I was really exhausted at that time,” Zhao said. She didn’t have enough time to sleep. After getting to the top of Mount Heng, she quickly got back to school. Zhao said planning the trip wasn’t an easy job, either. She needed to book (预订) tickets and leave enough time to rest before the next climb. However, she sounded pretty happy when she described the excitement of travelling under the stars, watching the amazing sunrise, and enjoying free winds at the top of the mountains. “The trip is also a gift for my mum, who brought me into this world and has been there for me all these years,” Zhao said. 1．What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?

About ten kilometers away, we visited Simatai. It also has many watchtowers with lovely names. One part of this section is called Ladder to Heaven. It was tiring and difficult to climb, but when we finally got to the top, we were surprised by the beautiful views there. It felt like walking through a Chinese painting. If you want to experience the greatness of the Great Wall away from the noisy crowd, go to Jinshanling or Simatai. You definitely won’t be disappointed. 1．When did the writer visit Jinshanling and Simatai? A．Last month. B．Last week.

Maybe your answer is yes. Here is an interesting story. Let’s have a look at it together! One morning, Betty was not able to do her work. She felt too tired. She put down all of her books, yawned and felt much better. Betty looked up. Had the teacher seen her? To her surprise, the teacher was yawning, too. He took a deep breath and opened his mouth wide. He closed his eyes a bit and let out his breath in a big, slow yawn. Then Betty heard other yawns. The teacher said, “Betty yawned because our doors and windows are closed. And the room is warm. Her body needed more air. Maybe she yawned because she was tired. Or she just needed to move a bit. Do you feel better now, Betty?” he asked. “Yes,” said Betty. “Yawns wake us up,” the teacher said. “When you yawn, you can stretch (伸展) many parts of your body. That stretching makes you feel good.” There were more yawns in the classroom. “People do not know why they yawn,” the teacher said. “But if you see a yawn, hear one, or even read about one, you may yawn too. And once your yawn starts, you can’t stop it at all. You may close your mouth to stop it. But the yawn will still come at once.” The teacher stood up and said, “Let’s open the windows and let fresh air in. You may also go out for a drink. A cold drink or water on your face helps to stop yawns. Betty may go first.” How do you feel now after you have read this story? Did you yawn? Watch a friend read this.

During the stay, I learned a lot about German. A year before that, my German friend, Maurice, had come to China, and we spent a weekend together. That experience was unforgettable. Maurice couldn’t speak English very well, and he was very shy, so it was hard for me to talk with him. On my way to Berlin, I was a bit nervous that I would face the same difficulties again. But things went smoother (更顺畅的) than I had expected. I tried my best to use my poor German to communicate with his family. Maurice had a younger sister, Emily, and a younger brother, Felix, who were very outgoing and cute. I talked to them about China, but sometimes I needed to use Google Translate. The family also had two dogs, who always crawled up (爬上) on my legs and played with me. A few days later, we got familiar with each other. On the weekend, we walked a long way to Siegessäule also known as Berlin Victory Column. Maurice’s father shared many stories of the Wars of German Unification, which gave me a new understanding about Germany. Though we didn’t know each other’s languages well, we still had a wonderful time together. 1．The writer felt a bit nervous on his way to Berlin because ________. A．he was too excited to see Maurice B．he was afraid of cultural differences C．it was his first time to travel to another country D．he couldn’t speak German well 2．Which of the following is TRUE?

When it was too dark to see outside, I read a book. After a while, one of the train workers came to make up our beds. Soon it was time to brush my teeth and get into my pajamas (睡衣).

With the emergence of fire prevention warnings, Saihanba (塞罕坝), known as a “miracle on earth”, begins to come into view. In October, the cold wind blowing from Siberia has dyed (染色) Saihanba golden. In Mongolian, Saihanba means beautiful high mountains. However, Saihanba was a desert of “yellow sand covering the sky and flying birds without inhabiting trees” 62 years ago. Whenever the north wind blows, the windy sand located in Inner Mongolia will drive southward, reaching Beijing and Tianjin. After more than half a century of forest plantation, people who have come to Saihanba can hardly imagine the arid (干旱) scene. Occasionally, a gust of wind passes by, and they would just sigh and shout how strong the wind is, but they would not feel sandblasted (喷砂). On Oct 9, watchmen Liu Jun and Wang Juan were observing the surrounding forest area on a watchtower in Saihanba Forest Farm in Hebei province. Liu is in charge of the observation and Wang keeps recording. “Spring and autumn are the critical fire prevention periods for our forest farm. We need to stay here for three months, have three meals a day, work and live in the building,” says Liu Jun, who has been engaged in observation for 13 years. Simple as it looks, the job is quite the burden on their shoulders. Only by enjoying loneliness can they keep this forest safe and sound. Saihanba today is not only a “green Great Wall” for windbreak and sand fixation(固化), but also a timber (林木) source. Many people would doubt why the trees that have grown up here are to be cut down in a planned way. Liu explains that most of the trees here are planted forest, and the forest species are relatively single, unlike natural forests that can adapt on their own and survive the fittest. The selective cutting of plantation forests is more like thinning when farmers plant crops. Only in this way can the nutrient area be expanded and diseased plants also be removed to ensure the healthy development of the forest areas. 1．What can be learned about Saihanba from the first three paragraphs? A．It is suffering from a cold wind. B．It is weathering a sandstorm. C．Its desertification is under control. D．Its climate is beyond expectation. 2．Which of the following best describes the watchmen? A．Bored but attentive. B．Lonely but committed. C．Tired but engaged. D．Simple but responsible. 3．Why are some trees in Saihanba cut down? A．To prevent potential fire. B．To study its disease prevention. C．To promote its biodiversity. D．To ensure its healthy development. 4．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．The Green Guardian B．The Sand Wasteland C．The Timber Farm D．The Golden Miracle 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了塞罕坝从沙漠变为“绿色长城”的历程，以及林场瞭望员的工作和树木合理砍伐的情况 。 1．细节理解题。根据前三段可知，62年前塞罕坝是沙漠，经过半个多世纪植树造林，现在人们感受不到喷砂，说明其沙漠化得到了控制。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据“Only by enjoying loneliness can they keep this forest safe and sound.”可知，瞭望员忍受孤独但坚守岗位，选项B“孤独但尽责”符合对他们的描述。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“Only in this way can the nutrient area be expanded and diseased plants also be removed to ensure the healthy development of the forest areas.”可知，砍伐树木是为确保林区健康发展。故选D。 4．最佳标题题。文章围绕塞罕坝的绿色守护，包括治沙、瞭望员守护、合理砍伐保障森林健康等，选项A“绿色守护者”适合作为标题。故选A。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题02 阅读理解（记叙文） 主题01 人与自我——生活与健康 Passage 1 （24-25八年级下·宁夏银川·期中）Tom’s Healthy Journey Tom was a 14-year-old boy who loved playing video games.

That accident almost killed me and it made me stay in hospital for half a year. During the boring long days, I didn’t feel happy to be alive (活着的). I was wondering (想知道) how I could live without my favourite sport. It all started on an evening after nine to five o’clock. I was sitting on the sofa when an ad (广告) came on the television—try skydiving. The next day, I went to the skydiving school in my town. At the end of the day’s lessons, I knew I found the right sport for me. I would never forget my first jump. Five of us walked to the runway and got into a plane. I was afraid, but the others were talking and joking, and I started to feel a little relaxed. It was a beautiful, sunny day and the sun was just going down. Soon it was time to jump.

With the emergence of fire prevention warnings, Saihanba (塞罕坝), known as a “miracle on earth”, begins to come into view. In October, the cold wind blowing from Siberia has dyed (染色) Saihanba golden. In Mongolian, Saihanba means beautiful high mountains. However, Saihanba was a desert of “yellow sand covering the sky and flying birds without inhabiting trees” 62 years ago. Whenever the north wind blows, the windy sand located in Inner Mongolia will drive southward, reaching Beijing and Tianjin. After more than half a century of forest plantation, people who have come to Saihanba can hardly imagine the arid (干旱) scene. Occasionally, a gust of wind passes by, and they would just sigh and shout how strong the wind is, but they would not feel sandblasted (喷砂). On Oct 9, watchmen Liu Jun and Wang Juan were observing the surrounding forest area on a watchtower in Saihanba Forest Farm in Hebei province. Liu is in charge of the observation and Wang keeps recording. “Spring and autumn are the critical fire prevention periods for our forest farm. We need to stay here for three months, have three meals a day, work and live in the building,” says Liu Jun, who has been engaged in observation for 13 years. Simple as it looks, the job is quite the burden on their shoulders. Only by enjoying loneliness can they keep this forest safe and sound. Saihanba today is not only a “green Great Wall” for windbreak and sand fixation(固化), but also a timber (林木) source. Many people would doubt why the trees that have grown up here are to be cut down in a planned way. Liu explains that most of the trees here are planted forest, and the forest species are relatively single, unlike natural forests that can adapt on their own and survive the fittest. The selective cutting of plantation forests is more like thinning when farmers plant crops. Only in this way can the nutrient area be expanded and diseased plants also be removed to ensure the healthy development of the forest areas. 1．What can be learned about Saihanba from the first three paragraphs? A．It is suffering from a cold wind. B．It is weathering a sandstorm. C．Its desertification is under control. D．Its climate is beyond expectation. 2．Which of the following best describes the watchmen? A．Bored but attentive. B．Lonely but committed. C．Tired but engaged. D．Simple but responsible. 3．Why are some trees in Saihanba cut down? A．To prevent potential fire. B．To study its disease prevention. C．To promote its biodiversity. D．To ensure its healthy development. 4．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．The Green Guardian B．The Sand Wasteland C．The Timber Farm D．The Golden Miracle / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
