第21課時(shí) 九年級(jí)下冊 Modules 58一、閱讀理解(xx山東淄博臨淄第一中學(xué)模擬)What will man be like in the futurein 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on the average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively(相對(duì)地) short period of time, so we may suppose that man will continue to grow taller.Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity(容量). As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more and finally we shall need larger ones! It is possible to bring about a physical change too. The head, especially the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are being used too much. In fact, we use them so much that very often they bee weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend(有的趨勢) to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive(敏感的) because they are used a great deal in modern life.What about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both men and women are probably to be hairless!Perhaps, all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive(有吸引力的) person to look at! This may well be true. All the same, besides these changes, future man will still have a lot in mon with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and feelings similar to our own. 1Future man is probably to be different from us in ways.Atwo Bthree Cfour Dfive2Future mans head will grow larger because .Ahe will use his brain more and more as time goes on Bhe makes use of only 80% the brains capacityCthe other 80% of his brain will grow fasterDhis brain has grown larger over the past centuries3What will be probably TRUE about the man in the future?AHe will have smaller eyes and will wear better glasses.BHis fingers will grow weaker because he wont use them.CHe will be hairless because hair is no longer useful.DHe will think and feel in a different way.4What does the writer write the article for?

On the way the young man was bragging(吹噓) about himself, 1 the wise man didnt say a word. When they got to a peak(山峰), the wise man asked, “Look down. What do you see?”“I see trees, farmland, houses and people as 2 as ants working in the fields,” the young man said.“What do you feel?” the wise man asked.“Everything is 3 me. I feel I rule the world,” the young man answered.The wise man said 4 . After a minute, he asked the young man to look up “What do you see this time?” the wise man asked.“I see 5 flying around high mountains, the white clouds on the mountains and the blue sky above the white clouds,” the young man answered.Then he asked the wise mans feelings.“I feel small and powerless,” the wise man answered . “A person who knows to look upward can 6 understand his position(位置). When a person knows the blue sky is always overhead, he wont be so 7 as to believe he rules over the world or other people.”The young man felt foolish(愚蠢的) for his 8 . From then on, 9 he began to feel as if the world owed(虧欠) him something, he looked up at the sky and remembered 10 small he really was. Try to look upward when you feel too good about yourself.1A.if Bbut Cso Dor2A.fat Blight Csmall Dstrong3A.below BaboveCbetween Dagainst4A.everything BanythingCsomething Dnothing5A.monkeys Btigers Cchicks Dbirds6A.badly BangrilyChardly Dclearly7A.clever Bsmart Csilly Duseful8A.pride Bsuccess Cluck Dsmell9A.whatever BwheneverCwherever Dhowever10A.why Bwhere Chow Dwhat三、詞匯應(yīng)用閱讀下面的短文,用括號(hào)內(nèi)所給詞的適當(dāng)形式填空,必要時(shí)可加助動(dòng)詞。(xx山東濰坊中考改編)Today many Chinese people wants to improve their English in different ways. 1.

In Britain, table manners are important. But how do you show good table manners in Britain? Here is some advice:How to sit: You should sit up straight in your chair. When you eat, dont pick up the bowl. This is called very bad manners. Noises at the table: It is never a good idea to make a noise at the table.Using your fingers: Usually we dont pick food up with our fingers when we are eating main dishes. But there are some foods such as pizza, sandwiches, chips and fruit we can eat with fingers. Passing things: If someone asks you to pass something like the salt, only get it if you are the closest person to it. Never lean(傾斜, 傾倒) across someone elses food. Its more polite not to use it yourself firstpass it directly to the person who asked, and then use it later. Its best to taste your food before you put salt in it. Your mouth: It is not polite to talk with your mouth full of food, nor to eat with your mouth open. How much to eat: It is polite to eat up the food that you have been offered, so a clear plate is a good plate. It shows that you enjoy the food. If you cant finish everything and you can leave a little, that is okay. You could say something like “That was very nice, thank you.”1How should you sit when you eat in Britain?(根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題) 2Please translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 into Chinese.(請把第6段中畫線句子譯成漢語) 3What shows that you like the food?(根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題) 4Please give a suitable title for the passage.(請給文章擬一個(gè)合適的標(biāo)題) 參考答案一、14 DACA二、15 BCADD610 DCABC三、1.Recently2.entered3fortable4.first5mens6.them7.better 8to speak9.have heard10.learning四、1.You should sit up straight in your chair.2滿嘴都是食物說話是不禮貌的,張嘴吃東西也是不禮貌的。3Eat up the food that you have been offered.4Good Table Manners in Britain
