49533. （2024•高新一中•四模） The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one of the great works by Mark Twin.The book is so interesting.
    Even today，it is quite popular among kids.Although I am in my thirties，the book remains one of my favorites.After re-reading the book recently，I learned an important lesson from Tom Sawyer.
    In our daily life，we are often given some boring or tiring tasks.What's in your mind you're your mom tells you to clean the floor？Have you ever wanted to complain（抱怨）？I think most people have.
    Tom Sawyer，however，thought differently when he was given a boring task.One Saturday morning，Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence.Tom's friend Ben Rogers happened to walk past.Instead of complaining，Tom told Ben that he felt "excited" about the task. "Only one in a thousand maybe even two thousand boys can do this!"Tom said.
    Tom's words made Ben interested in the task.He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a chance to paint the fence.If Tom had thought about nothing but complaining，he would have had a bad day painting the fence.
    This story teaches me a valuable lesson：Complaining is useless.The next time you are given a boring or tiring task，don't complain.Unlike what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer，it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you.However，without complaining，you'll feel better and perhaps do a better job.

（1）According to the writer，what is most people's immediate reaction（即时反应） to a boring task？
A.Accepting it.
B.Refusing it.
C.Complaining about it.
D.Putting it off.
（2）Why did Tom say the underlined sentence to Ben in Paragraph 3？
A.To express his sadness.
B.To catch Ben's interest.
C.To ask Ben for help.
D.To show his anger.
（3）What does the writer learn from Tom Sawyer？
A.It is no use complaining.
B.Refusing is the best choice.
C.Waiting is the only way out.
D.Do a better job with complaints.

    How did Pi Day start？Interestingly，scientist Albert Einstein was also born on March 14.In 1988，an American scientist thought that people should remember this day.Then the holiday was established.In 2009，the US made Pi Day a holiday.

49732. （2024•铁一中学•一模） Every year，with the Spring Festival on its way，it's time to start thinking about everyone's favorite topic：gifts！More specifically（确切地）（1）
   This means that each place has different gift habits due to its culture.I have found gift-giving to be quite different in China from my home country.
   One example is the time of when to open a gift.The person who gives a gift is called the "gifter".The person who gets a gift is called the "giftee".In the US，（2）       .The gifter wants to see the giftee's reaction of excitement and joy.In China，however，it's more polite to thank the gifter for the gift but open it later in the giftee's home.
   （3）       .Although people in the US might give money to their children，it is usually done very secretly with the money put in a card and not discussed out loud.In China，it is much more open.For example，kids get lucky money from parents during the Spring Festival.
   Finally，the value of the gift can play a big role in China.（4）       .An expensive gift in the US is usually greeted with great excitement.But in China，it can make the giftee feel embarrassed because of a sense of having to return the favor in the future to the gifter.
   As the old saying goes，"When in Rome，does the Romans do."（5）       .So，next time you give a gift to somebody，remember that culture and meaning are part of every action we take.

A.This is different from the US
B.they're the types of the gifts you will give
C.the gifter will often want to see the giftee open the present at once
D.it's the giving of gifts and the culture behind them
E.You'd better not break the rules where you are staying
F.It's necessary to know the different traditions about giving gifts
G.Also，I find the difference is the openness and directness of giving money

50659. （2023•师大附中•九模） Have you watched the recent TV Three-Body？Changed by Liu Cixin's science book The Three-Body Problem，the show is very popular with people.One of the most exciting parts must be Operation Guzheng.
    In order to find the important information of a huge ship，people plan to cut the ship into pieces.They set up many thin strings （线） across the river，which are made by high technology.Looking like Guzheng，the strings quietly cut the steel ship into pieces as if the ship was soft tofu!
    Is it possible to cut ships with thin strings in real life？In fact，strings are very good at cutting.For example，the egg cutting machine uses thin strings to cut eggs into pieces.A kite line can easily hurt people if it gets circle around their necks.This is because the thin strings have a very small contact area，leading to a high intensity of pressure（压强） when they cut things.
    In the program，the strings are as thin as human hair.To cut the ship，the pressure needs to be 200 MPa.How strong is that pressure？Imagine an elephant standing on a string!In real life，scientists won't be able to make such thin strings that wouldn't easily break，at least for years to come.The cutting will also create lots of heat.We don't have the things to bear（忍耐） that high temperature while it's also thin enough to cut through.It's still far away from the technology in the program.

（1）What is the purpose of Operation Guzheng in the program？
A．To find a huge ship.
B．To cut the ship into pieces.
C．To get important information.
D．To turn the ship into soft tofu.
（2）How does the writer tell us "strings are very good at cutting"？
A．By telling stories.
B．By giving examples.
C．By showing numbers.
D．By explaining rules.
（3）What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 want to tell us？
A．Making thin strings is easy.
B．People break strings with machines.
C．Cutting things must use strings.
D．People need strong pressure to cut ships.
（4）Which part of the newspaper may this passage be taken from？
A．Science &Technology.

50894. （2023•曲江二中•一模） Bogre met Frederico in New York City.In 2014，they started a project to make the first public records of every language in the world.They've already recorded more than 350 languages.
   "When humans lose a language，we also lose the greater diversity（多样化）in art and traditions，"said Bogre.Between 1950 and 2010，230 languages disappeared.Today，a third of the world's languages have fewer than 1，000 speakers left.Every two weeks a language dies with its last speaker，and 50% to 90% of them are said to disappear by the next century.
   Volunteers have been asked to film local speakers talking in their mother languages.Local speakers are asked to share their stories.One volunteer recorded a language that had never been studied by language researchers before.Another volunteer found a speaker of Ainu，a language in Japan that has nothing to do with any other known language.
   A lack（缺乏）of protection is the reason for diminishing（削弱）the language diversity.For much of the 20th century，governments across the world made some local people use official languages.More than 100 languages in Australia have disappeared since Europeans arrived.However，most languages die today because of other things.The weather change and urbanization（城市化）greatly result in the disappearance of languages.

（1）What do Bogre and Frederico want to do together？
A．Test people's language levels.
B．Offer language lessons to people.
C．Find out the reasons for language loss.
D．Record all the languages in the world.

（3）How do volunteers help protect languages？
A．By writing down local speakers' stories.
B．By learning languages from local speakers.
C．By improving the living conditions of local speakers.
D．By videoing local speakers talking in their languages.

50978. （2023•西工大附中•八模） Have you ever thrown a camel？Camels are large and heavy animals，so it would be hard to do so.But in the French-speaking Democratic Republic of the Congo， "to throw a camel" is a way of saying "to make a spelling mistake".In the past，a phrase like that was not accepted by the French government as an official French term.But recently，the French Ministry of Culture worked on a new kind of dictionary that accepts the idea that many people in other countries and regions speak the language.The language has changed over time and is different in places like Ivory Coast in West Africa or Quebec in Canada，compared to how it is in Paris.
   The new online French dictionary includes new French words from around the world.It was released（发布） on March 18- just in time for International Francophonie Day on March 20.After its release，it is updated（更新） on a regular basis.It now contains about 600，000 terms.The French Culture Minister says the dictionary is not just for France's 67 million citizens，but for the 300 million French speakers worldwide.
   Supporters say the new dictionary is more democratic （大众化的） than earlier French dictionaries that only showed the way highly educated French people spoke.Official dictionaries produced by the French Academy in Paris were first published hundreds of years ago and are，regularly updated.The online dictionary，however，has a new part you cannot find in a book.If you live in Senegal，for example，you can search the dictionary，and it will give you the meaning of a word based on its use in that country. "The French no longer have a monopoly（独占） on French，" a French magazine that supports the dictionary wrote recently. "And that is good news".
（1）How is the online French dictionary different from other dictionaries？
A．It needs updating regularly.
B．It is mainly for non-French speakers.
C．It takes in worldwide French usages.
D．It includes few official French terms.
（2）What do the supporters think of the dictionary？
A．It helps spread standard French.
B．It'll attract more people to learn French.
C．It'll benefit（使受益）French's development.
D．It brings 300 million French speakers..
（3）In which section of a newspaper may this text appear？
A．Culture.
B．Opinion.
C．Technology.
D．Lifestyle.
