Everybody can buy takeaway food,but sometimes we’re not aware how cheaply we can make this food ourselves.”

The eight-part series(系列节目),Save Money:Good Food,follows in the footsteps of ITV’s Save Money:Good Health,which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market.

With food our biggest weekly household expense,Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week.In tonight’s Easter special they come to the aid of a family in need of some delicious inspiration on a budget.The team transforms the family’s long weekend of celebration with less expensive but still tasty recipes.

Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years,but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers,small,tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other.Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago,when the world had just five to ten million people,they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.

Soon afterwards,many of those people started settling down to become farmers,and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number.In recent centuries,trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education,especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades,all have caused many languages to disappear,and dominant languages such as

English,Spanishand Chinese are increasingly taking over.

At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number (中位数)of speakers is a mere 6,000,which means that half th e world’s languages are spoken by fewer people than that.

Alredy well over 400 0f the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction (消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the Unitde States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Auatralia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.

28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times? B

A.They developed very fast.

B.They were large in number.

C.They had similar patterns.

D.They were closely connected.

29.Which of the following best explains “dominanr” underlined in paragraph 2? C

https://www.sodocs.net/doc/452368405.html,plex.

B.Advanced

C.Powerful.

D.Modern.

30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present. B

A.About 6,800.

B.About 3,400.

C.About 2,400.

D.About 1,200.

31.What is the main idea of the text? C

A.New languages will be created.

B.People’s lifestyles are reflected in languages.

C.Human development results in fewer languages.

D.Geography determines language evolution.

D

We may think we‘re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shony and new,but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices (装置) well after they go out ot style,That’s bad news for environment – and our wallets – as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things，

To figure out how much power these devices are using,Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life – form when its minedals are mined to when we stop using the device.This method provided a readout for how home energy use evolved since the early 1990s.Devices were grouped by generation.Desltop computers basic mobile phones,and box-set TVs defined 1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smart phones, and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002, before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.

As we accumulated more devices,however,we didn’t throw out our old ones.”TheLiving-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kid’s room ,and suddenly one day,you have a TV in every room of the hou se,said one researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in

2007.We’re not just keeping these old devices-we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbin’s team,old desktop monitors and box TV’s with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions(排放) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window.

So what’s the solution(解决方案)?The team’s data only went up to 2007,but the re searchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one

function ,such as tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They found that more on demand entertainment viewing on tables instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.

32.What does the author think of new devices?(A)

A.They are environment-friendly.

B.They are no better than the old.

C.They cost more to use at home.

D.They go out of style quickly.

33.Why did Babbin’s team conduct the research?(D)

A.To reduce the cost of minerals.

B.To test the life cycle of a product.

C.To update consumers on new technology.

D.To find out electricity consumption of the devices.

34.Which of the following uses the least energy?(B)

A.The box-set TV.

B.The tablet.

C.The LCD TV.

D.The desktop computer.

35.What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?(A)

A.Stop using them.

B. Take them apart.

C.Upgrade them.

D.Recycle them.

Color is fundamental in home design-something you’ll always have in every room. A grasp of how to manage color in your spaces is one of the first steps to creating rooms you’ll love to live in. Do you want a room that’s full of life?Or are you just looking for a place to relax after a long day?____36_(B)_____,color is the key to making a room feel the way you want it to feel.

Over the years, there have been a number of different techniques to help designers approach this important point.___37__(A)___,they can get a little complex. But good news is that there’re reallly only three kinds of decisions you need to make about color in your home:the small ones, the medium ones,and the large ones.

_38__.They’re the little spots of color like throw pillows,mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms.Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa,small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable.

Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas,dinner tables or bookshelves.__39___.They require a bigger commitment than smaller ones,and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space.

The large color decision in your rooms concern the walls,ceilings,and floors.Whether you’re looking at wallpaper or paint,the time,effort and relative expense put into it are significant.___40___

While all of them are useful

Whatever you’re looking for

If you’re experimenting with a color

Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar with

It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color pieces

So it pays to be sure,because you want to get it right the first time

Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two maior ways

广东省2018年中考语文试题及答案

初中语文的学习方法 1、必须熟读每一课。到了初中，老师可能不会抓那么紧，课文不如小学时精简，学生很可能只在上课时粗略浏览一边课文，认为无大碍。但是我要特别提醒的是——到了初三，语文考试中判断读音与字形、成语使用正确的是哪一项，很多取材于课本，不熟读很可能模棱两可。 2、文言文要熟记。课本上选取的文言文最适合学生阅读与记忆，很多典型字词。如果忽视这些而一味去课外找题，事倍功半。 3、古诗词要理解透彻。很多时候考试默写古诗词并不是给出半句让你写另一句，而是给出提示语。提示语有时是表现作者思想感情、有些是一定语境。 4、阅读题首先要掌握学术语。任何答题都需要一定框架，如赏析句子是修辞（写法）+内容+感情，如果没有规定标准，老师改卷就完全主观，不能保证公平公正。这些老师会讲地很清楚。那么这里说一下我三年才懂得的技巧——答案不在你的脑子里，而在文中。任何题目首先一定要联系上下文寻找答案，最后再调动大脑思考。这点特别注意。 5、语文课本单元末的综合性学习要认真听，认真记。不可大意。最好把相关俗语与故事简要记录。 6、作文要保证每周一练。不管老师是否布置。并且要编辑成册——分初一、初 二、初三三个阶段。到了初三，进入复习阶段，作文可能没有那么多时间细心琢磨，所以初一初二的基础就特别重要。在训练作文的时候要分为三个板块。一、结构。a.标题.好的题目会让人眼前一亮，激发阅读兴趣（这点也是很多阅读题赏析标题的答案之一），不妨化用典故；数字、符号、文字结合；巧用修辞等。 b.题记.简短。 c.小标题.小标题要整齐而富有文采。二、内容。我的建议是每次分别训练不同题材——情感（如亲情、友情、师生情）、历史人物（如李白、司马迁、杜甫、苏轼）、自然（如给人启示的小草、昙花、树苗）。记叙文最易得高分，散文次之（因为需要有一定文学功底），议论文不建议初中生写（没有思想的深度）。三、文字。文字这条路没有捷径可走，只有一对流转的眼与一双勤奋的手——必须经常阅读与练习。可以买一些作文杂志如《课堂内外》、《作文与考试》。 7、方法说到这里，贵在坚持。 机密★启用前 2018年广东省初中毕业生学业考试 语文 说明： 1.全卷共6页，满分120分，考试时间为120分钟。
