【2016中考模拟】阅读下列材料,从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳的答案。 (文章来自杭州市教研室2015年4月2日优质课材料,题目原创。) Katie 82
When I was a teenager, I was more responsible than today’s teenagers. After school, I had to do lots of jobs at home. My parents were really angry when I didn’t do my chores. Today’s teenagers are lazier. They come home from school and then play computer games for the rest of the day. Sarah 45
Young people nowadays aren’t better or worse than young people in the past. Teenagers today have the same problems that we did. They’re worried about finding their own identity(身份) and their own place in the world. I once read this quotation: “Children nowadays just love the easy life. They’re bad mannered, have no respect for authority or for older people, and they make their teachers mad.” Do you know who said that? It was Socrates(苏格拉底). He lived about 2,400 years ago. Patty 52
In the media, they always say that teenagers have easy life. They say they’re lazy and irresponsible. But I work with young people and lots of them are responsible and hard-working. I also meet teenagers who are opposite. Isn’t it the same with adults? Perhaps teenagers have more money now. And they have lots of modern gadgets like MP3 players. But those things don’t always make life easier or make you happier! Ned 23
Who says teenagers have an easy life? Exams are harder now than in the past. It’s more difficult to get a job so your marks need to be higher. The media make us worry about our appearance nowadays too; so a lot of teenagers aren’t happy. They think they should be taller or thinner, like the people they see on TV. Maybe the problems are different from the past. But that doesn’t make life easier. It’s probably the opposite!
16. Who thinks “Teenagers nowadays have a harder life than teenagers in the past”? A. Katie B, Sarah C. Patty D. Ned
17. What does the underline word “opposite” mean in Paragraph 3? A. irresponsible and lazy B. responsible and hard-working C. lazy and responsible D. hard-working and irresponsible 18. What’s the meaning of “quotation” in Paragraph 2 ?

In a nice house there lived an old man. Behind the house there was a big garden. He planted many plants there. He took care of his flowers all the time, watering and fertilizing (施肥) them. One day a young man went by the garden. He looked at the beautiful flowers, imagining how happy he could be if he lived in such a beautiful place. Then, suddenly he found the old gardener was blind. He was very _________ about this and asked, “You can’t see these flowers. Why are you busy taking care of them every day?”
The old man smiled and said, “I can tell you some reasons . First, I was a gardener when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, although I can’t see these flowers, I can touch them. Third, I can smell the sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s you.” “Me? But you don’t know me,” said the young man.
“Yeah, it’s true that I don’t know you. But I know that flowers are angels that everybody knows. We enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”
The blind man’s work opened our eyes and pleased our heart, which also made his life happier. It was just like Beethoven, who became deaf in his later life and wrote many great musical words. Beethoven himself couldn’t hear his wonderful music, but his music has encouraged millions
