(2023·江苏南通·中考统考真题A篇)There is nothing wrong with having an accent(口音). In fact, most native English speakers won’t care if you do. You should feel confident about your accent! But as you improve your language abilities, losing your accent might be something you’ve started to think about. And, if you’re entering the workforce in an English speaking environment, it is important to get your pronunciation to a level that native speakers can understand without difficulty. So, here, we’re looking at some tips to help you sound like a native speaker.
Speak slowly and clearly Pay close attention to getting your words out clearly and speaking slowly as you go. When your pronunciation gets better, you can speed up your speaking speed. Learn the schwa skillfully The schwa is a vowel which sounds like “uh”. English speakers pronounce many other vowel sounds as the schwa. Learning when to exchange them can make your English sound more natural.
Use “He” and “She” correctly Make sure that you call men “he” and women “she”. If you mix them up, it can be confusing(混淆的)for your listeners and it is a giveaway that you are not a native speaker. Fall tone and rise tone fluently In English, the meaning of what you say can change based on the way you say it. Make sure to work on your falling and rising tones so that your meaning is communicated clearly.
Learning how to sound like a native speaker can be a hard task. But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey. If you want to improve your pronunciation, the tips above will be of great value to you.

Project in Singapore The fantastic man-made “forest” is a Singapore landmark. It is made from steel and concrete(水泥)covered in local flowers and plants. At night, 18 solar-powered tree-like towers which get their energy from the sun often light up the city. The project was awarded “the World Building of the Year” and its designer said the idea was to create “a city in a garden”. Clearly, the special way of building up the forest makes a difference to lifting the public’s awareness about environment.
Project in Milan By decorating the buildings from top to bottom with more than 20,000 trees and plants, Italian architect Stefano Boeri said he’d wanted to make trees part of the buildings and create something that could help to reduce pollution. These buildings lie in the center of the city, Milan. Which types of trees are planted and where the trees are planted depend on the trees’ likes for sunlight. There is no doubt that this award-winning project is a great work. Project in Medellin Medellin has won high praise for its green corridors(长廊)”. This project helps the city which used to be poor and dirty get a new look. Now the30 corridors full of trees and flowers connect green spaces such as parks and gardens in Medellin. The green corridors have reduced the temperature by two degrees and helped make the air clean Bees and birds have returned. To make the beauty of the city remain, more gardening jobs have been created. Because of this, people there live more actively. Its one of the best examples driven by government which improves the environment.

(2022·江苏宿迁·中考统考真题C篇)Recently, China has announced the list of the first five national parks.
Each of them is divided into two parts-the core(核心)protection area and the general control area. In the core protection area, only research and surveillance(监视)in science are allowed. And the general control area is open to the public, allowing travel activities such as camping and hiking. In the future, national parks are expected to be natural classrooms. People can learn about different kinds of animals and plants through eco-friendly(环保的)travel activities.
The national parks can also be helpful to local people. The building of these national parks provides many jobs for local people. People living in or around the parks can work as park rangers(护林员)and guides. They can also sell some eco-friendly things with local colour. So their yearly incomes(收入)will grow a lot.
Then let’s take a look at the five national parks.

Giant Panda National Park connects panda habitats(栖息地)in Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces. Inside the park are more than 1,600 wild gian1 pandas. They make up over 70 percent of the pandas in China.
Hainan Tropical(热带的)Rainforest National Park is the largest tropical forest in China. There are more than 400 kinds of plants that can only be found in Hainan. The world’s only 35 Hainan gibbons(长臂猿)live there.

The Horsetail Fall(瀑布)is one of Yosemite National Park’s most amazing views. Around the second week of February, the setting sun hits the Horsetail Fall at just the right angle(角度)to light the upper parts of the waterfall. And when conditions are right, the Horsetail Fall becomes orange and red at sunset. It is like red-hot lava(熔岩)pouring down from the top of the El Capitan. So, it got the name “firefall”.
The firefall is a perfect match of the weather, the fall, the time and the watching place. It usually appears on dry, warm and cloudless days. There must be enough flowing water to make a firefall too. So there must be enough snow on the mountain top, and it turns into water on warm afternoons.
The sun goes to the best place before the fall in late February. And the best time to watch the fall is 5 to 15 minutes before the sunset. Only at this time can visitors see the firefall. The El Capitan Picnic Area is the best place to watch, because it is close to the fall and is perfect to set up cameras and tents.
Every year in February, thousands of photographers come to watch the firefall. Although the view may appear just minutes before sunset, many of them have to come hours earlier to get a right place to set their cameras in time. “I’m just saying that the Yosemite Firefall is something you don’t want to miss during the winter,” says Kate Moore, a traveller and the lead content creator for .
42. Paragraph 1 mainly tells us _______.
A. how the firefall got its name B. why it’s easy to see the firefall
C. who was the first to find the firefall D. on which day we can visit the frefall
43. What can we know about the firefall
A. It lasts for half an hour before the sunset.
B. It usually appears on wet, warm and cloudy days.
C. Rivers provide enough flowing water to make a fall.
D. Its best watching place is the El Capitan Picnic Area.
44. From the words of Kate Moore,we can infer that _______.
A. the firefall is worth seeing B. it’s dangerous to watch the firefall
C. the firefall brings little surprise D. it’s a waste of time to visit the firefall

(2023·江苏南通·中考统考真题A篇)There is nothing wrong with having an accent(口音). In fact, most native English speakers won’t care if you do. You should feel confident about your accent! But as you improve your language abilities, losing your accent might be something you’ve started to think about. And, if you’re entering the workforce in an English speaking environment, it is important to get your pronunciation to a level that native speakers can understand without difficulty. So, here, we’re looking at some tips to help you sound like a native speaker.
Speak slowly and clearly Pay close attention to getting your words out clearly and speaking slowly as you go. When your pronunciation gets better, you can speed up your speaking speed. Learn the schwa skillfully The schwa is a vowel which sounds like “uh”. English speakers pronounce many other vowel sounds as the schwa. Learning when to exchange them can make your English sound more natural.
Use “He” and “She” correctly Make sure that you call men “he” and women “she”. If you mix them up, it can be confusing(混淆的)for your listeners and it is a giveaway that you are not a native speaker. Fall tone and rise tone fluently In English, the meaning of what you say can change based on the way you say it. Make sure to work on your falling and rising tones so that your meaning is communicated clearly.
Learning how to sound like a native speaker can be a hard task. But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey. If you want to improve your pronunciation, the tips above will be of great value to you.

Project in Singapore The fantastic man-made “forest” is a Singapore landmark. It is made from steel and concrete(水泥)covered in local flowers and plants. At night, 18 solar-powered tree-like towers which get their energy from the sun often light up the city.

Clearly, the special way of building up the forest makes a difference to lifting the public’s awareness about environment.
Project in Milan By decorating the buildings from top to bottom with more than 20,000 trees and plants, Italian architect Stefano Boeri said he’d wanted to make trees part of the buildings and create something that could help to reduce pollution.

There is no doubt that this award-winning project is a great work. Project in Medellin Medellin has won high praise for its green corridors(长廊)”. This project helps the city which used to be poor and dirty get a new look. Now the30 corridors full of trees and flowers connect green spaces such as parks and gardens in Medellin. The green corridors have reduced the temperature by two degrees and helped make the air clean Bees and birds have returned. To make the beauty of the city remain, more gardening jobs have been created. Because of this, people there live more actively.

Each of them is divided into two parts-the core(核心)protection area and the general control area. In the core protection area, only research and surveillance(监视)in science are allowed. And the general control area is open to the public, allowing travel activities such as camping and hiking. In the future, national parks are expected to be natural classrooms. People can learn about different kinds of animals and plants through eco-friendly(环保的)travel activities.
The national parks can also be helpful to local people. The building of these national parks provides many jobs for local people.

Then let’s take a look at the five national parks.
Three River-Source National Park on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau(青藏高原), is the largest national park in China. Because it is home to the sources of the Yangtze, Yellow and Lancang rivers, people call it “China’s water tower”.
Northeast China Tiger and Leopard(豹)National Park is in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces. It covers an area of 14,100 square kilometres. It is our country’s biggest and only place for wild Siberian tigers and Amur leopards to live in.

Giant Panda National Park connects panda habitats(栖息地)in Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces. Inside the park are more than 1,600 wild gian1 pandas. They make up over 70 percent of the pandas in China.
Hainan Tropical(热带的)Rainforest National Park is the largest tropical forest in China. There are more than 400 kinds of plants that can only be found in Hainan. The world’s only 35 Hainan gibbons(长臂猿)live there.
