人教版2019-2020学年初中英语九年级上册期中考试模拟试卷（4）C卷姓名:_ 班级:_ 成绩:_一、 阅读理解 (共3题；共28分)1. （10分）阅读理解 What are the basic ingredients(要素)of good manners？A strong sense of fairness is one of them. A friend once told me an experience that he had. When he was driving along a onelane(单行小路), unpaved(未铺路的)mountain road, the car ahead of his produced clouds of choking dust(呛人的尘土), and it was a long way to the nearest paved main road. Suddenly, the car ahead stopped at a wider place on the road. My friend thought there must be something wrong with the car ahead. He stopped and asked if anything was wrong. No, said the other driver. But youve endured my dust so far. Ill endure yours the rest of the way.Another ingredient is empathy(同情心). It makes a person see into the mind or heart of someone else. Recently I happened to read such a story in a book. A man was having dinner alone, and he was trying to open a bottle. But he failed. Then he asked a waiter for help. The waiter took the bottle, turned his back and opened it without difficulty. Then the waiter closed it again and turned back. He pretended(假装)to make a great effort to open the bottle without success. Finally he took it into the kitchen and returned very soon. He told the man that he managed to open it, but only with a tool. Yet another ingredient is the ability to treat people alike(一视同仁). No matter who he is and what he does, everyone is worth respecting. （1）The driver in the car ahead stopped to_. A . repair the carB . have a restC . ask the wayD . let the back car go（2）The underlined word endure probably means_ in Chinese. A . 原谅B . 容忍C . 抱怨D . 谴责（3）In fact the waiter opened the bottle_.

They dont have enough time to relax or to stay with their family.Work hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1,646 hours a year at work. In Japan, however, people work about 2,159 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.Why do people work so many hours?

Some people think its their duty to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they dont work more hours.Many people say that their holidays are too short.
