中考英語閱讀沖刺練習及答案
Today, there are many laws about children all over the world. Some people think children must obey rules or they should be punished，others do not agree. The Inuits or Eskimos in Alaskaalmost never punish their children. The parents don’t hit them. If the children go too far，the parents punish them by making fun of them.
Children in other parts of the world are not as lucky as Eskimo children. American parents can spank(打……臀部) their children at home，but a teacher cannot hit a child in a public school. This is also true inGermany. In contrast(對比), it is against the law for anyone to hit a child in Sweden. Swedish parents cannot spank their children. The children also have a special government official who works for their rights. There is even a plan for children to divorce from their parents though this is not a law yet!

【文章大意】通常而言，為兒童制定法律是件好事。100多年前，在工業國家，7歲大的孩子在工廠一天要工作18小時，工廠的老板可以打小孩，家長和老師們也可以這樣做。今天世界上有很多保護兒童的法律。有些人認為兒童應該遵紀守法，否則就要受到懲罰。其他人則不同，愛斯基摩人從不懲罰兒童。如果孩子們做得太過份了，父母親用開玩笑的方式來懲罰他們。在其他地方則不同，美國的家長可以在家打孩子的屁股，但老師不能在學校打學生。德國跟美國一樣。但在瑞士任何人都不能打孩子，并有專門的政府部門來維護孩子們的權利。

A rich man was once riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden. On the ground lay a young tree, ready to be planted. The rich man called out to the old man, “What kind of tree are you planting there, my good man?”
“This is a fig(無花果) tree, sir. ” He said.
“A fig tree?” the rich man was very surprised, “Why, how old are you, may I ask?”
“I am ninety years old.”
“What!” cried the rich man, “You’re ninety years old. You are planting a very young tree now and it’ll take years to give fruit. You certainly don’t hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree. ” The old man looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile, “Tell me, sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy? ”“Sure,” the man did not know why he asked this question. “Then tell me this,” he said, “Who planted the fig trees?” “Why-why? I don’t know.” “You see, sir.” went on the old man,“Our forefathers(祖先) planted trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.”
The rich man was quiet and said, “You are right，my good man. We should do some things for the people after us. Thank you very much.” Then he rode away.
