【参考答案】1—5、BCACD

B

Most of us have experienced trouble sleeping at one time or another.

This is normal and usually temporary (短暂的), because of stress(压力) or

other reasons. But if sleep problems last too long in your daily life, you

may be have a sleep disorder. Sleep disorders cause more than just sleepiness.

The lack(缺乏) of quality sleep can be bad for your health. If you're

experiencing sleep problems, learn about what you can do to help yourself,

and when to see a doctor.

Sleep can be a barometer(晴雨表) of your health. In many cases, people in good health sleep well, while those suffering from sleep problems often

have a health problem. Sleeping well is necessary for your physical health.

Unfortunately, if you don't care for your sleep problems it can lead to poor

health, weight gain and accidents. If you want to feel at your best and stay

healthy, sleep is necessary.

It's not normal to feel sleepy during the day, to have problems getting to sleep at night, or to wake up feeling tired. But even if you've struggled

with sleep problems for so long, you can still learn to sleep better and then make healthy changes to your daytime habits and bedtime. If self-help doesn't work, you can turn to sleep specialists who are trained in sleep medicine. Together, you can find out causes of your sleep problem and find ways to improve your sleep and quality of life.

1.Temporary sleep problems .

A.can lead to bad health

B.are good for your health

[主旨大意] 如果一个人经常失眠,或者睡眠质量很差的话,那么他的健康会受到危

害,因此关注睡眠是非常重要的。

1.D 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“This is normal and usually temporary…”可知,偶尔睡眠不好也是正常的,因此它不会过多地影响一个人的身体健康。故选D。

2.C 句意理解题。根据下文内容可知,睡眠好的人身体健康,睡眠不好的人身体健康状况差, 因此睡眠是人体健康的标志。故选C。

3.B 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知,养成有规律的睡眠习惯有助于解决睡眠不好的问题。故选B。

4.B 推理判断题。根据第二段可知,睡眠不好会导致健康状况不佳、体重增加、出事故等问题。故选B。

C

Do you ever forget a face? If not, then you could be a “super recognizer”.

Usually it's easy for someone to recognize(识别) the faces of their family and friends. But it could be difficult for them to remember faces that they've only seen once.

However, studies have found that super recognizers have amazing face recognition skills. They can remember at least 80 percent of faces they've seen. At least one in 50 people are super recognizers, reported Daily Mail.

Bournemouth University of UK recently carried out a study. They tried to find whether super recognizers have a different way to remember faces.

They found that when these people look at faces, they spend more time looking at the persons' noses.

Researchers also found that these people are not smarter than others. Their super ability usually only helps them recognize faces.

important finding is that there are subtypes(子类型) of super

recognition.

Some super recognizers never forget faces. But for some, if you show pairs of faces to them at the same time, they can quickly decide whether the faces are of the same person or two different people.

In fact, many super recognizers say they are good at “spotting”(认出) faces in a crowd.

These subtypes of super recognition could be used in many areas of life. For example, the skills could be very useful at a passport control checkpoint. Super recognizers could also help the police spot known troublemakers, bad people or even missing people in crowds.

1. Whose face can an ordinary person remember easily?

A.A foreigner's.

B.A friend's.

C.A troublemaker's.

D.A missing person's.

2. According to the passage, which part of the body helps a lot in recognizing faces?

A.Eye.

B.Ear.

C.Mouth.

D.Nose.

3. Which word can best fit in the blank in Paragraph 7?

A.One.

B.Other.

C.The other.

D.Another.

4. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.The study of super recognizers.

B.How to remember faces.

C.The use of super recognition.

D.Ways of being super recognizers.

参考答案:

[主旨大意] 本文是一篇说明文,说明了超级认脸者的特殊能力及其在生活中的应

用。

1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段“Usually it's easy for someone to recognize the

faces of their family and friends.”可知,对普通人来说,家人或朋友的脸是最

容易记住的。故选B。

2.D 细节理解题。根据第五段“…they spend more time looking at the persons'

noses.”可知,鼻子在识别人脸的时候起到了很大的作用。故选D。

3.D 文章结构题。根据上文“They found that…”和“Researchers also found

that…”可知,这是第三个发现。“三个以上的另一个”应该用another表示。故选

D。

4.A 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文讲述的是有关super recognizers的研究。

故选A。

D

Ask famous persons like Cate Blanchett, Scarlett Johnson, and Bono (singer for the band U2), and maybe they will say “green.” That’s not because these artists like the color green best.

2020届中考英语阅读理解50篇(含答案)

2020届中考英语阅读理解50篇 (绝对精品训练题,接近实战考题,值得下载练习) 1 When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul. Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock(码头), feet dangling(摇晃), and got ready for a big meal. Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest. Bernie was my father’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon. What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life. For many years, I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could. Well, I’ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw t he rest away. 1. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______. A. relaxed B. worried C. hungry D. proud 2. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon? A. They ate it in a polite way. B. They only ate its best part. C. They ate every part of it. D. They shared only one piece. 3. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______. A. was just a rich businessman B. worked hard all the time C. lived a rich but healthy life D. knew how to make money

中考英语阅读理解100篇:中考英语阅读理解真题及答案(1) Edward rose early on the New-year morning. He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family. Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet. When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore. He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family. “I wish you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on. The man shook his head. “You are not from this country.” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth and to the children shaking with cold, as if (好像) to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife. They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time.” When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up. “I have bought no books”, said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.” “My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books for you, more as a prize for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift” “I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family. It was nice for a little boy to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year.” 48.
