Different types of maps have different uses. Tourist maps, for example, have signs to show places of interest in an area. When tourists read these maps, it is easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place and it is easy for them to go and find their ways to these places.

Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long journeys. Different types of roads are given different numbers. For example, if you want to go to Wood Green, you just follow No. 621 Road and keep looking at the road signs.

Distribution maps(分布圖) use colors or signs to show facts about an area. For example, where different languages are spoken, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water.

Some maps, such as railway maps, use straight lines to show everything. This is easy for people to read. Trains are fast. People don’t have to think about small places they go past. They just need to know the two ends of their trips.

1.Jim is visiting the Summer Palace. Which map does he need most?

A. A tourist map. B. A railway map.

C. A distribution map. D. A road map.

2.How can you tell different roads on road maps?

A. By using different colors. B. By finding the numbers.

3.Which of the following can distribution maps tell us?

A. How to get to Lakeside. B. How to plan a long journey.

科目:初中英語 來源:2014-2015學(xué)年江蘇蘇州中考英語模擬英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

閱讀理解,閱讀下列短文,從每小題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng).

In Western society,especially in the English﹣speaking world,the chance for young people to see the other countries and experience life is considered important.Many young people,when they finish school at the age of 18,take a gap yearbefore they go to university.

Parents often want their children to grow up a little and see what the real world is like when they finish school.Although they are worried about their safety,many think that the advantages of independenceand experience are worth the worries.Children are encouraged to be brave,independent and to explore the world on their own or with friends.

Young people also want to experience freedom and see what life is like on the other side.This other side could be the other side of the world or just the other side of life.For example,if they have a rich life,they may want to see how people in poor areas live.

A gap year after school is also an important chance for young people to spend time thinking about what they want to do with their lives.A little bit of growing up and experience will help them make their important career decisions,especially when they are unsure about what they want to study.

Another reason for going straight after school is to get a break from studying before they start the next few years of university.So anywhere you travel in the world,you will meet young European people exploring the world.

So much of the world has been travelled and explored.The young people are now looking for more worthy experiences.Some of them work as volunteers to do something for the country they are visiting.Many gap year volunteers are now spending a few months teaching English in Thailand,helping feed giant pandas in China or building a well(井) in a village in Africa.

These young people’s wish to explore the world is an expression of the values of the societies that they are part of.Both discovering the world and making a positive difference in it are important parts of the Western mind.
