2011年内蒙古呼和浩特市中考英语试卷（解析版）

Teachers say buying homework answers online is not many in schools, but an interview with school students shows only 10% are willing to finish their holiday homework by themselves.
Their main complaint is that the homework is too much for them to finish.
“As far as ！ know, many of my students have to go to all kinds of training classes during the holiday. These lake away much of their time for doing homework.”
But as for the parents  who are sending their children to these training classes  they also say they’ve got no choice. Here’s a view from a student’s father.
"All the other kids in the neighborhood are learning extra things. You know parents sometimes compare their kids. I’m afraid my kid will be less successful than the others in the future."
In order to do with this situation of students copying each other’s homework, some schools have even dropped the idea of holiday homework. Instead, they organize some interesting outdoor activities.
Educational experts say students love to learn through games or activities that they can be a part of‘ They suggest schools drop the current (目前的）homework format (设计)，and turn to homework that encourages kids to get involved (参与).This way, they would no longer want to copy from each other or buy answers through the Internet.
Answer the following questions according to what you read.
Why do students copy or buy homework answers?
   What do students spend much time on during the holiday?
Most parents want their kids to be successful, don’t they?
   How do some schools deal with the problem of students copying homework?

Skin-diving(潜泳) is a new sport today. This sport take you into a wonderful new world. It is like a visit to the moon! When you are under water, it is easy for you to climb big rocks, because you are on longer heavy.
Here, under water, everything is blue and green. During the day, there is plenty of light. When fish swims nearby, you can catch them with your hands.
When you have tanks(罐) of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. But you must be careful when you dive in deep water.

Which of the following statements is NOT true ?

Skin-diving is a useful and interesting sport because __________.

Do you know why different animals or pests(昆虫)have their special colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters(猎人). This is because they have the colors much like the trees.
Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid(液体)when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌人)cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.

A man came home from work late, tired, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
“Daddy, how much money do you make each hour?”
“If you must know, I make＄20 each hour.”
“Oh,” the little boy answered, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said, “Daddy, could you lend me ＄10?”
The father was furious, “If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, the go straight to your room and think about why are you so selfish (自私)！”
The little boy went to his room no words and shut the door. After a short while, the father calmed (平静) down, and started to think, “Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn’t really ask for money very often.” So he went to the little boy’s room.
“Sorry！Maybe I was too hard on your just now.” said the man, “Here’s ＄10.”
“Oh, thank you Daddy！” he said happily. Then the boy took out some coins. When the father found that the boy already had money, he got angry again.
“Why do you want more money since you already have some?” the father shouted angrily.
“Because I didn't have enough, but now I do.” The little boy replied, “Daddy, I have ＄20 now. Can I buy one hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you. ”
How much does the boy’s father make one hour?

B．he did not have enough money at that moment

Monkeys are clever and lively, but they are naughty and greedy (贪婪的) as well. Whenver they find delicious food, they will eat enough.  What’s more, they will take it when they leave. They have suffered (吃亏) a lot because of this. But they never change this way.
In India, people use monkey’s greed to catch them. Do you know how they can catch monkeys? Here are some instructions.
◆              Make a hole in a big pumpkin (南瓜). The hole must be just right     ----neither too big nor too small.
◆              Put some jujubes (枣) in the hole.
◆              Leave the pumpkin under a tree. Make sure there are some monkeys in   the tree.
◆              Hide yourself and watch the monkeys.
As soon you leave, the monkeys can’t wait to come down to the pumpkin. When they find a hole in the pumpkin, they don’t know what’s in it and one of them can't help putting its hand into the hole to find what on earth there is. When it touches the jujubes, it will clench (攥紧) some of them in its hand. As a result, it isn’t able to take its fist (拳) out of the hole. You can’t come close until this time. Will the monkey drop off the pumpkin? Don’t worry. It prefers the pumpkin than its life. It will run with the pumpkin, clenching its fist more tightly. In the end, it is caught helplessly.
Monkeys haven’t changed their way of doing with nice food because they are
    .

“The hole must be just right” means it is     .

Seeing the hole in the pumpkin, a monkey will     .

Which of the following is true according to the passage?

What should we learn from the passage?

I felt very sad not to be able to get the ticket for the film Titantic last Friday. I learned in the newspaper that ticket could be bought at the cinema box office (售票处) in Richland Hill every day between 10:00 and 4:00. Because I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the cinema was during my 45-minute lunch time. It is a pity that the cinema is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round(往返) trip in 45 minute.
Last Monday I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes, waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip---- so I had to go back to the office. The same thing happened on Wednesday. On Thursday my luck changed, I got on a bus right away and arrived at the cinema in twenty minutes. But when I got there, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for fifty-five minutes. I found that I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and went back across the town.
By Friday I understood my only hope was to make the trip by car.it was not cheap,but I felt it would be worth ot to see the film. The trip by car only took 10 minutes, but it felt like one hour to me. When I reached the cinema, I was delighted to see that nobody was waiting in line. But quickly found out that it was because they had already sold all the tickets.
It seems that the writer of the story works     .

He tried to go to the cinema bo buy a ticket but really got there     .

The underlined word “delighted” means     .

Which of the following is true according to the story?

What’s the title of the story?

The word “sport” first meant somethin that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting (捕猎) wild animals and birds.
About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their spare time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best one can earn a lot of money.
For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than ＄3000 a year. The starts earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions (网球锦标赛) can make more than ＄50000 in a year. Of course, only a few sporsmen can earn as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals (个人的) like golf, tennis and motor-racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is that: the star can earn more money from advertising than from sport. An advertising for sports equipment (设备) does not simply say “Buy our thing”. It says “Buy the same shirt and shoes as…”. Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their name or a photo of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.
根据上文内容判断正（T）误（F）
A “professional” sportsman is someone who likes sports very much.
The word “sport” now usually means “organized ” games.
An advertisement for sports equipment just says “Buy our thing”.
The sport stars can earn as much money from advertising as from sport.
This passage mainly talks about sport and money.
