2020中考英语大阅读组合练有答案
一、阅读理解 A
Getting electricity has always been a problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa, a small village in Peru, South America. However, things went from bad to worse in March 2015 after heavy rain damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce. Luckily, according to the researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light up an LED light bulb.
While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the science behind the idea is quite simple. As plants create their food (using the sun's energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons — the building blocks of electrical energy. The UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in the lamp's batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can power a 50－watt LED light for two hours — enough time for local villagers to get their evening work done.
The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October 2015. So far, they have been a huge success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially small rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.

（民族风情及节日文化）
We never had children of our own—just The White Prince—and I can tell you，he was enough of a family for anyone. He walked freely in the park just as we had planned he would，and ran after the deer and the rabbits whenever he felt like it: but he never did learn how to kill for himself. You can't teach old lions new tricks. He lived on deer mostly，and slept on a sofa in our living room—I wouldn't have him inside our bedroom，no matter(无论) how often Bertie asked. You know，I have to draw the line somewhere.
Bertie's leg was never cured. When it was bad，he often needed a stick，or me，or the lion to lean on. It pained him a lot，especially on cold and wet days，and he never slept well. On Sundays the three of us would walk around the park together，and Bertie would sit on the top of Wood Hill with his arm around the lion's neck and I would fly kites. You know，I've always loved kites. And the lion liked to break them into pieces.
The lion never showed any interest in running away，and even if he'd wanted to，the park wall was too high for an old lion to jump over. Wherever Bertie went，he wanted to go too. And if ever Bertie went out in the car，then he'd sit by me in the kitchen，and watch me with those great amber eyes，listening all the while for the sound of Bertie's car coming up the path to the front of the house.
The lion was getting older. And he became weak in his legs and could see very little. He spent his last days sleeping at Bertie's feet. When he died，we buried(埋葬) him at the bottom of the hill. Bertie wanted it that way so he could always see the place from the kitchen window. I suggested Bertie plant a tree in case(以防) he forgot where the lion was. “I will，but he should get more than a tree，” Bertie said.
Bertie was sad for weeks，months after the lion died. There was nothing I could do to cheer him or even comfort him. He would sit for hours in his room，or go off on long walks by himself. He seemed so shut away inside himself，so distant(遥远的). Try as I did，I could not reach him.
