閱讀短文,回答下列問題

Winter is a time for many exciting sports: sledding (乘雪橇), skating and skiing. Skating and skiing need lots of skills. Sledding gives you good exercise and is lots of fun!

A sled looks like a boat. It can move easily over snow or ice. Early sleds were made of wood. Now some better sleds are made of glass.

Sleds can be pulled(被拉)by animals. In some very cold parts of the world, people make animals like dogs, horses, and reindeer (馴鹿) pull(拉) goods(貨物) or people in sleds.

People also sled for sports and fun. Driving a sled does not need much skill. The driver gives a kick(踢) in the snow to start the sled. He or she can also ask someone else for help. In a sled, there can be one person(人) or several(幾個(gè)).

Usually, you have to lie on your back, feet first in a sled. As you travel, you move your body and feet to keep it in the right direction (方向).

There is a special sled called the skeleton sled (骨架雪橇). It’s very different.

On a skeleton, you lie on your stomach and drive the sled in a head-first way. It is very fast! Many people are afraid to ride it. But once they try it, they want to do it again!

1.What were early sleds made of?

_____________________________________________.

2.What kind of animals can pull sleds?

___________________________________.

3.Besides(除...外) pulling goods or people, what are sleds also used for?

__________________________________________________.

4.How many people can stay in a sled?

_____________________________________.

5.How do many people feel when they ride a skeleton?

______________________________________________.

科目:初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2016屆浙江杭州蕭山南片九年級(jí)12月質(zhì)量檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

On the way back from work every evening, more often than not there would be a homeless man standing at the exit of the freeway (快車道). He looked to be in his late 40s but was probably a lot younger. He had shoulder length straight black hair and a short beard.

Every day after work I would remember to gather any spare change, and put it aside to give to him if I saw him. A feeling of joy would come over me every time I saw him, while coming off the ramp (坡道). So did he. Sometimes the red light would be on for a minute and we would ask each other about our day. His answer would always be the same, “I’m blessed!”

Then one day I was called into my boss’s office and was told that I was being laid off. For the rest of that day all I could think of was “how am I going to provide for my kids as a mother, how am I going to pay rent?”

Needless to say that on my way home that day I was very sad and upset. I didn’t remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready like I usually did. Yet there he was as always, as I turned the ramp. He set his eyes on me, while still smiling and waving at others as usual.

While I was waiting for the red light to turn, he strolled (閑逛) over to my car. He had a big smile. He looked at me straight in the eyes and said, “Today I will give you a dollar.” He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill.

You see that day he taught me a valuable lesson more than a dollar bill. No matter what material things are taken from you, no one can take away your choice to be joyful. Every time I’m faced with challenges, I think of the homeless man’s valuable lesson and remember that I am blessed.

1. The writer would have a short conversation with the homeless man when .

A. she waited for the red light to turn

B. she gave spare change to him

C. she had a good time that day

D. she wanted to know how he lived

2. Why did the writer feel sad and upset after out of the boss’s office?

A. Because she was criticized by the boss.

B. Because a new job was offered to her.

C. Because she was laid off by the boss.

D. Because there was something wrong with her job.

3.What is NOT true about the homeless man from the passage?

A. He would be seen at the exit of the freeway.

B. He usually smiled and waved at others.

C. He had a deep impression on the writer.

D. He felt joyful only when money was offered to him.

4.The homeless man gave the writer a dollar because .

A. he had collected a lot of money B. he wanted to pay back her

C. he knew what she experienced D. he wanted her to be happy

5. The writer learned from the story that .
