The small red house on D Street was old enough. It had a blue roof. But Corita liked it. She was born in that house. Corita was seven and a half years old. One day her mother hugged her tight and said, “I have something to tell you. We have to move to another house.”

Corita cried a little, but she got over it. She put all her toys into a box. Not her dolls, though. She held on to the dolls. The movers (搬家工人) came. They took the furniture and clothes. They took Corita’s box of toys. “We’ll meet you at the other house,” they said.

Corita and her mother got on a bus. Corita held her dolls on her lap. The bus ride was long. After the bus ride, Corita and her mother walked two blocks. They came to a yellow house. It was old and little. The movers were there.

They all went into the house. Corita’s mother showed the movers where to put things. She showed them the room for Corita’s toys.

“Will this room be mine?”

“Yes,” said her mother.

“What makes it so nice and bright?”

“Look up. Look toward the roof.”

Corita looked up, “There is a window in the ceiling!”

Her mother smiled, “That’s called a skylight. See the blue sky?”

Corita put her dolls on the bed. Then she took her toys out of the box. “I like this house,” she told her mother. “This house is so nice.”

“Were you afraid it wouldn’t be nice?”

Corita laughed, “Well, my dolls were. But of course, they didn’t know the skylight!”

Life is like a skylight. Only if we find the light things in our life, we will be always happy.

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And thay can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is Venus Flytrap(捕蝇草).

Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly, so the fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly and slowly eats it.

Why do plants do that? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn't have all these important things, especially nitrogen (氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let's hope that bigger plants don't get the same idea!

A.plant B.animal C.food D.meat

2.Venus flytrap grows in______.

科目:初中英语 来源:2020年江苏省泰州市附属初级中学中考三模英语试卷 题型:回答问题

It's common to play video games as a way to reduce stress. We play games for fun, relaxation and even to kill time. However, one student has found a much more creative way to use video games.

Wu Hele, 17, a Senior 3 student from Jinling High School, Nanjing, has been preparing a gift for his high school - a recreation(重建) of his own school in the game Minecraft《我的世界》.

It is a game that allows players to design landscapes and buildings in all different types of locations with different materials.

For Wu, recreating the school was not just a sudden idea. During Wu's first time visiting the school, he found that it was perfect for rebuilding. "The landscape of the school is regular, and buildings all had a symmetrical, aesthetic feeling, which is suitable for rebuilding with Minecraft," he told Modern Express《现代快报》.

After his first visit to the school, Wu decided to rebuild it. However, this was not an action that could be done in a day. During his three years in high school, Wu has effectively organized his time. After finishing his homework or exercises, he always walked around the school with a notebook. "I measured all the corners by eyeballing(目测) or counting footsteps. I also drew sketches(草图). When I played the game, I would build the school based on my sketches," he told the Bejing Evening News《北京晚报》.

Wu experienced several challenges as he recreated every detail of the school. One of the most difficult challenges was building the gym. At first, he didn't know how to rebuild the shape. Then, Wu learned the conic curve formula(圆锥曲线公式), which was used for the building.

His hard work has paid off. Almost all of the scenes of Jinling High School have been rebuilt in the game. The gate, the teaching buildings, the unique corridor with the wisteria(紫藤长廊)- every tree and flower has been exactly rebuilt. The player can visit the classrooms, gyms and office buildings and view the detailed decorations inside. In addition, their school's pet cat can be seen running downstairs in the teaching building just like in real life.

"I'm the first one who rebuilt our school in this way. I've cherished(珍惜) the three years I've spent here, and I have learned a lot during the whole process," Wu told Nanjing Daily《南京日报》.

回答下面5个问题,每题答案不超过7个词。

1.Which grade is Wu Hele in? ______________________________________

2.Where did Wu rebuild his school? ______________________________________

3.How did he measure all the corners in his school? __________________________________

4.When did Wu decide to rebuild his school? ______________________________________

5.What do you think of Wu’s recreation of Jinling High School? _________________________
