篇十五(2021苏州中考真题)
Resting my head on Helen's shoulder, I put my arms round her waist (腰). She drew me to her, and we
rested in silence.
We had not sat long before another person came in.
Some heavy clouds, swept from the sky by a rising wind, had left the moon bright; and her light, coming
in through a window near, shone full both on us and on the coming person, Miss Temple.
"I came on purpose to find you, Jane Eyre, "said she. "I want you in my room, and as Helen Burs is with
you, she may come too. "
We followed Miss Temple to her apartment. It had a good fire, and looked cheerful.
Miss Temple told Helen Burns to be seated in a low arm-chair on one side of the fire place, and herself
asking another, she called me to her side.
"Is it all over? "she asked, looking down at my face. "Have you cried your sadness away"
"I am afraid I never shall do that. "
"Why? "
"Because I have been wrongly accused (指责), and you and everybody else, will think me a bad girl. "
"We shall think you what you prove yourself to be, my child. Continue to act as a good girl, and you will
satisfy us. "
"Shall I, Miss Temple? "
"You will. "said Miss Temple, "You have been accused of lying when you were little. Tell us the truth,
but add nothing and exaggerate(夸大)nothing. "
I made up my mind that I would be most modest and most core. Having thought for a few minutes about
where to start, I told her all the story of my sad childhood.

A. Dishonest. B. Impatient. C. Caring. D. Humorous.
47. What does the underlined paragraph imply(暗示)?
A. Miss Temple was going to punish Jane.
B. Helen would rather leave Jane alone.
C. Nothing could make Jane happy again.
D. Jane's luck might change for the better.
48. According to the passage, which of the following is true about Jane?
A. She chose to trust Miss Temple. B. She didn't mind being accused.
C. She made up her childhood story. D. She once behaved as a bad girl.

篇十六(2021苏州中考真题)
Everybody has a brain, but not many people know how the brain works. Some people believe that the
brain is like the hard disk of a computer. We use it to store files 一pictures, language (words, texts, sounds)
and so on. Others compare the brain to a huge cupboard with lots of shelves and boxes in it. We put
information into these boxes and hope to find it again later.
The brain is not a computer disk, and it isn't a cupboard. Look at the picture here. It looks a hit like weeds
(杂草)in a garden, doesn't it? The picture actually shows a child's neocortex— a part of the brain that
controls sight and hearing. You can guess what happens 一 more "weeds" grow as the child gets older.
Scientists call these neuronal (神经元的)networks. The networks grow around our neurons. What makes
them grow? "Learning! Learning is brain change, "says Professor James Zull from Case Western University
in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. "Without learning, nothing changes in the brain. For every new word you learn in
your English lesson, every problem you solve in maths, every new song you learn to sing, a neuronal
network grows in your brain and the brain changes."
The more neuronal networks we grow, the better we can think and the better we remember. You may
wonder if there is anything you can do to make the networks in your brain grow better. Professor Zull says
yes, there is. He says that brain change is strongest when a) you are interested in and like what you are
learning, b) you are in control of what you learn and c) you get challenging tasks that make you think hard.
Understanding a challenging task makes you feel good and develops your brain.
49. What's the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. The brain — a fantastic computer.

D. Our brain 一 a growing system.
50. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Learning makes our neuronal networks grow.
B. Seeing a challenging task develops our brain.
C. We remember better when things are easy.
D. There's nothing we can do to make us smarter.
51. What's the best title for the passage?
A. Interest is the best teacher. B. Meeting life's challenges.
C. Never too late to learn. D. Learning is brain change.
