Is human blood all the same? “Yes,” you may say.“It's all red.”

Well,it's not as simple as you might think.

Blood is made up of different parts,such as red blood cells,white blood cells,and platelets(血小板).

Two chemical molecules(分子)on the red blood cells make people's blood different.Scientists mark one molecule "A" and the other molecule "B".

According to which and how many molecules are on the red cell, scientists divide blood into four types: A, B, AB and O.

Your blood type will stay the same your whole life.

Scientists have been wondering if there are some links between people's blood type and their personalities but they don't know for sure yet.

  But some say that people with the same blood type may have things in common.

What's your blood type? Do you have family members or friends who are the same type as you? Read the following. Are you like this?

People with type A: They look peaceful from the outside. But they ask too much of themselves that they may be very nervous inside. They get happy or sad easily. Sometimes they are shy but always very careful. They can easily win people's trust.

People with type B: They have strong minds. Once they start a task, they don't give up easily. They'll try their best to finish it and do it well. Type B people always try to make themselves different from others. They want to do things in their own way in life.

People with type AB: They are maybe the strangest among all blood types. They can be both open and shy, noisy and quiet at the same time! They are responsible (負責的) and always ready to help others.

People with type O: They're open and good at making friends. They always start tasks but don't always finish them. They have lots of new ideas and love to be the centre of attention. They always strongly believe in themselves.

科目:初中英語 來源:2011廣東省深圳市畢業(yè)生學業(yè)考試英語全真模擬試卷(1) 題型:閱讀理解

Play is the basic business of childhood, and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy(嬰兒), every child needs opportunity and right materials for play, and the main tools of play are toys. The main function of toys is to suggest, encourage and play. To succeed in this, they must be good toys, which children will play with often, and will come back again and again. Therefore, it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child’s development.

In recent years, research on baby development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach, within the range of his inherited(遺傳的)abilities, is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a baby’s ability to benefit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A baby who is encouraged, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully.

In the next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toys should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability: Bricks and jigsaws(七巧板)and construction toys; painting, scribbling(涂鴉)and making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play—the first social games for learning to play and get on with others.

But at the third stage of play development—from five to seven or eight years old— the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school.It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys.

Until the age of seven or eight, play and work mean much the same to a child.But once reading has been mastered, then books become the main source of learning. Toys are still interesting and valuable, which lead up to new hobbies, but their significance has changed to a child of nine or ten years old, toys and games mean, as to adults, relaxation and fun.

1. What does the writer want to tell us in the first paragraph?

A.    Children should choose toys by themselves.

B.    Children like playing, but they don’t need any toys.

C.    Children should be given different toys as they grow up.

D.    Children should be given the same toys as they grow up.

E.     58.According to the passage, we can give the child every kind of toys ________.

A.when he is two             B.when he is around four

C.when he is six              D.when he is eight

2.When a child is seven years old, what is the main source of learning?

A. Toys.      B. Books.    C. Jigsaws.   D. Paintings.

3. What is the article mainly about?

A.The importance of schooling.

B.The choice of toys for children.

   C.The importance of pre-school education.

D.The role of play in a child’s development.
