“O Miss Roberts! What coarse-looking hands Mary Jessup has!” said Daisy Marvin, as she walked home from school with her teacher.

“In my opinion, Daisy, Mary’s hands are the prettiest in the class.”

“Why, Miss Roberts, they are as red and hard as they can be. How they would look if she were to try to play on a piano!” exclaimed Daisy.

Besides, they wash and dress the children, they mend their toys and dress their dolls, yet, they find time to bathe the head of the little girl who is so sick in the next house to theirs.

“I shall never think Mary’s hands are ugly any more, Miss Roberts.”

When you read an article you will understand and remember it better if you can work out how the writer has put the ideas together. Sometimes a writer puts ideas together by asking questions and then answering them. For example, if the article is about groundhogs(土拨鼠), the set of questions in the writer’s head might be:

What does a groundhog look like? Where do groundhogs live? What do they eat? …

In the article, the writer might answer those questions.

Sometimes a writer writes out his questions in the article. These questions give you signals. They tell you what the writer is going to write next. Often a writer has a question in his head but he doesn’t write it out for you. You have to work out his question for yourself. Here’s a sample reading for you to practice this method:

Earthworms

Do you know how many kinds of earthworms there are？There are about 1800 kinds in the world! They can be brown, purple, green. They can be as small as 3 cm long and as large as 3 m long.

初三年级 英语学科模拟试卷 第5页 共8页

The best time to see earthworms is at night, especially a cool, wet night. That’s when they come up from their burrows(地洞) to hunt for food. Earthworms don’t like to be in the sun. That’s because they breathe through their skin, and they can’t breathe if their skin gets too dry. Earthworms must come out of the earth if it rains a lot, because they can't breathe in their flooded burrows. What a dangerous life!

Earthworms don't have eyes, so how can they tell when it's dark? They have special places on their skin that senses light. These spots tell whether it’s light or dark. If you shine a flashlight on an earthworm at night, it will quickly disappear into the ground.

Earthworms don't have ears either, but they can hear by feeling movements in the earth. If you want to hear like an earthworm, lie on the ground with your fingers in your ears. Then have a friend stamp his or her feet near you. This is how earthworms feel birds and people walking near them.

Earthworms are useful. Farmers and gardeners like having lots of earthworms in their land because the worms help to make better soil when they dig. That digging keeps the soil loose and airy(通风的). In one year earthworms can dig up as much as 23,000 kg of soil in an area about the size of a football field．

37. What’s the purpose of reading Earthworms? A. To show the special life facts of earthworms. B. To explain the differences from the groundhogs. C. To put the writer’s idea into real use.

D. To make the readers think more clearly.

38. Which question CANNOT be answered in the passage? A. How do earthworms help with gardeners? B. What life are earthworms living with? C. When may people observe earthworms? D. Why can human listen like earthworms?

39. How can you understand Earthworms better according to this passage? A. Read, ask and answer questions in your own head while reading. B. Read to work out all the questions in the writer’s head while reading. C. Read and check all the things that are not clear to you again and again. D. Read for general ideas and discuss or compare with other similar topics. 40. What’s the best title for the passage? A. One way to help with understanding B. One way to practice with a new idea C. One way to learn to be a wise writer D. One way to be clearer about worms 四、词汇检测（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
