中考阅读理解专项训练三AAI(人工智能)makes our lives easier and better. Let's see the amazing AI.Cool driverless busA bus door opens and you get on. Wait, where is the driver? Here is a new kind of driverless bus called Apolong.It can seat 14 people and doesn't need a driver. The bus follows traffic rules. It stops every time it sees a stop light.Your close friendHi, everyone. I'm Xiaoice, a chatbot(聊天机器人). I speak like a 17-year-old-girl. If you feel lonely, you can talk with me. I'm good at singing, writing poems and telling stories. I want to be your friend！World's first AI anchorHey, look! The famous Chinese anchor( 主播) Qiu Hao is reporting the news for us. But, is “he” really Qiu Hao? The answer is “no”. This is the world's first AI anchor.It looks and speaks just like a real person.It speaks both Chinese and English. It can work 24 hours without any mistakes. The AI anchor joins in human reporting team. You might see it on TV sooPopular AI artistThis beautiful painting was at an auction(拍卖) in 2018. It sold for about 3，000，000 yuan! But it is not a work by a famous painter, such as Vincent van Gogh. It was painted by an AI artist. Three Frenchmen created the AI.The AI artist studied over 15，000 paintings. In this way, it learned to paint. Now it is among the most popular artists in the world.()1.The fact about Apolong is that .A. there is a driver in itB. the door is opened by the passengerC. there are 24 seats in itD. it stops every time it sees a stop light()2.Xiaoice CAN'T .A. go out to play with youB. talk with you if you feel lonelyC. be your friendD. sing, write poems or tell stories()3.The painting is .A. a work painted by Vincent Van GoghB. worth about 3，000，000 yuan at an auctionC. studied by three French artists over 15，000 timesD. among the most beautiful paintings in the world()4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.

UNESCO sees this as a terrible fact.What happens when a language dies out? Something great is lost—not just sounds and marks but the way that people understand the world and communicate with each other. We keep different cultures and traditions through languages. Kill a language and all these are killed too.Through IMLD, more and more people come to realize the terrible situation and try to stop it.Google's 2018 Endangered (濒临灭绝的) Languages Project is a good example. Many speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload (上传) texts, audios and videos to the project website. They want to introduce the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world.The Myaamia Project is the same kind of effort to revive the language spoken by the Miami tribes (部落) of the United States. Project members work to encouragepeople to study and communicate with this language, which died out in the 1960s.These activities give life to those endangered languages. People who work to keep languages alive are not limited to the past. Many young people design apps and use social media to support their activities. They “spread the word“ to save the world.So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling of our mother language. This is why we should remember the wise words of late pre sident of South Africa, Nelson Mandela: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”()6.UNESCO holds IMLD every year in order to help people to.A. learn and use endangered languagesB. show their talents in learning languagesC. practice reading skills of mother languagesD. realize the situation of endangered languages()7.What did people do in Google's 2018 Endangered Languages Project?A.

It is more difficult to protect endangered languages.B. The disappearance of languages has already stopped.C. Young people don't care about endangered languages.D. Young people have creative ways to protect languages.()10.The writer mentions Nelson Mandela's words in order to .A. tell the importance of one's mother languageB. show his contributions to language protectionC. tell the trouble in learning endangered languagesD. show the possibility of protecting mother languagesC配对阅读。

They may have small talk at parties, while waiting in line at the store, at family events or work. It's a way to say hi and express friendliness.Small talk is very useful. It can avoid uncomfortable silences and build stronger relationship. For example, when you first meet someone or talk to someone you don't know well,you can break the ice by making small talk. Small talk with a colleague (同事）about his child may help you to understand more of his life outside the office.In 2013, researchers from the University of Essex asked some people to make small talk in a study. They found small talk can make people happier. People who talk briefly (短暂地）with a waiter in a coffee shop felt happier than those who simply went in, ordered and left.However, some people aren’t good at small talk.Here are some tips to improve your small-talking ability.Firstly, find common ground. When you have something similar with your speaking partner, that means you have something to talk about.Secondly, ask open-ended questions. They are suitable for small talk. For example, if you ask visitors whether they like your city, they may simply say "Yes." But if you ask "What do you think of our city," they will have more freedom in how they answer.Thirdly, become a student. Nobody knows everything. So, as someone is answering one of your open-ended questions, they bring up something about which you know nothing. So, tell them!This lets the other person become the teacher. They feel good about sharing their knowledge and you get to learn something. ▲ Finally, practice makes perfect. Like anything, getting good at making small talk takes practice.If you make small talk in your native language, you might become happier. If you are making small talk using English, you will most surely improve your speaking and listening skills.( )1. How many tips does the passage offer to improve the ability of small-talking?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.( )2. The study of the researchers from the University of Essex in 2013 is to find out .A. if people can make small talk with a waiterB. where people make small talkC. how small talk make people feelD. who people want to make small talk with( )3. Which of the following is an open-ended question?A. Do you like our city?B. Would you like to come to visit the museum?C. Can you help me with my English?D. What do you think of the movie?( )4.

Bertozzi and K.Barry Sharpless from Denmark shared the 2022 Nobel Prize from the United States and Morten Meldal in Chemistry“for the development of click chemistry and bio-orthogonal chemistry", the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced Wednesday.Sharpless and Meldal have laid the foundation(基础) for click chemistry, in which molecular(分子的)building blocks snap together quickly and efficiently. Bertozzi has taken click chemistry to a new dimension(维度)and started using it in living organisms (生物), the academy said in a statement.“This year's Prize in Chemistry deals with not ▲, instead working with what is easy and simple. Functional molecules can be built even by taking a simple way,”said Johan Aqvist, chair of the Nobel Committee for Chemistry.“I can hardly breathe!”Bertozzi said in the onsite telephone interview of her reactions. Of hearing the news in the middle of the night, she said, “A shock is an understatement(轻描淡写)!”Around the year 2000, Sharpless created the concept of click chemistry, which is a form of simple and reliable chemistry, where reactions happen quickly and unwanted by-products are avoided.* Shortly afterwards, Meldal and Sharpless separately offered click chemistry, a simple and helpful chemical reaction that is now in widespread use, such as in the development of medicine, for mapping DNA and creating materials that are more fit for purpose, the statement said.Bertozzi took click chemistry to a new level, said the statement. To map important but elusive (难以解释的) biomolecules on the surface of cells, she developed click reactions that work inside living things. Her bio-orthogonal reactions take place without disrupting the normal chemistry of the cell.Bertozzi, born in 1966 in the United States, is a professor at Stanford University in the United States. Meldal, born in 1954 in Denmark, is a professor at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. Sharpless, born in 1941 in the United States, is a professor at Scripps Research in the United States.This year's prize amount is 10million Swedish kronor (about $920,000), to be shared equally between the three prizewinners.1.Which of the following is TRUE?①Bertozzi started ig click chemistry in living organisms.②Sharpless has taken click chemistry to a new dimension.③Meldal played the most important role in the research.④Sharpless created the concept of click chemistry.A.①④B.②③C.①③D.③④2.Which of the following can be put into“”in Paragraph 3?A. new mattersB. difficult mattersC. important mattersD.challenging matters3.Why did Bertozzi said that she could hardly breathe?A. To describe her hard work.B. To show her serious illness.C.To express her deep shock.D. To explain her understatement.4.What do Paragraphs 6 and 7 mainly talk about?A. The practical value of click chemistry.B.The methods used to create click chemistry.C. The time when click chemistry was created.D.The place where they created click chemistry.5.What is the main idea of the passage?A. The development of click chemistry.B.

A lot of people tend to backstab（背后伤人）. Some make friends just to use them. Others promise to be your friends but they are never there when you need them the most. They appear only when they need something from you.Once you find a friend who is worth keeping, make sure to take care of what you have with that person. How? Here are some tips on how to make friendship last forever:Call for no reason. Call just to say "Hi” or just to ask “ What's up?” You don't need a huge or an important reason to call a friend. If you can't call, just send an e-mail. This would send a message that you remember your friends on a random (随意的) time of the day.Know when to say I'm sorry and thank you. Don't let pride get in the way, especially when you make a mistake. The word “sorry” already has saved a lot of friendships. Show how thankful you are for the things, big or little, that your friend does for you. Did she listen to you when you were complaining about that physics exam? Did he offer his shoulders for you to cry on when your boyfriend broke your heart? Say thank you. It's that easy.Don't say hurtful words. If you have nothing good to say, don't talk at all. Don't hurt your friends' feelings by saying hurtful words that, most of the time, you don't really mean. If you're a true friend, you will be careful with your words.Be honest. Don't lie to friends. Trust is the base of true friendship. Write them a note from time to time. Also, try to be thoughtful. Give simple gifts that will make their day.Know how to keep a secret and show your friends that they can depend on you to be there whatever happens. If you promise to keep the secrets for your friends, just do it.Never be mean（小气的）with your time. Spare some time to see your friends however busy you are. You can always spare an hour or two after school or work to visit them.答案：完形填空1-5.CBADA 6-10.DBCDA 11-15.BCDAB阅读理解A篇：ADCDC B篇：ABCAD语篇填空1-5.France; because ; finding ; with ;joined6-10.their ; was invited ; a; best ; closer任务型阅读1-5.

中考英语阅读理解专题训练三试题 (2)
中考英语阅读理解专题训练三( A )On Nov.18th,1908,three men went up in a balloon 〔汽球〕.They started early in London. The headman was Augusta Gaudron, and the other two men were Tannar and Maitland. They had a big balloon and they were ready for a long way.Soon they heard the sea. They were carrying the usual rope〔绳子〕 ,and it was hanging down from the basket of the balloon. At the end of the rope they had tied a metal box. This could hold water, or it could be empty. So they were able to change its weight〔重量〕 . It was for use over the sea. They were also carrying some bags of sand.After the sun rose, the balloon went higher. It went up to 3,000 metres, and the air was very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past the men's basket, and they could see more snow on the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice.At last they pulled the box into the basket. It was still snowing; so they climbed to get away from the snow.

When the glass is filled with water , the water pushes the air out of the glass.Air , as a gas , has no definite shape〔固定的形状〕, but because it is matter , it takes up space〔空间〕 and it has weight . It is easy to prove〔证明〕 that air is something that takes up space . Stuff a piece of dry cloth〔布〕 into the bottom 〔底面〕 of a glass so that it will not fall out when the glass is turned upside 〔上部〕 down . Push the upside down glass , holding straight up and down , into a jar of water till the glass is completely covered . When the glass is taken out of the water , the cloth is still dry . The air inside the glass shows that it takes up space and keeps the water from coming in.46.

Which of the following pictures give us the correct〔正确的〕 result of the experiment?( W=water A=air C=cloth )〔Ｅ〕Happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success(成功), your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct(改正) it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always aroundyou.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances(时机) to challenge(挑战) yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.51. Those who have big houses may often feel .A. happyB. lonelyC. freeD. excited52.

People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air.B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.D.

I’ve got a collection(收藏) of terrible“mistakes〞 at the back of my wardrobe(衣柜),which I never wear! But I don’t m ind going withmy girlfriend, because she helps me choose. Ithink women are better at buying clothes thanmen. They’ve got better taste(品味) and they always know what’s fashion(时尚).57. You shouldn’t be afraid of her. Maybe she’s just as shy as you. Wha t about giving her a red rose and a short message? Say something like this: “I’d really like to know you but I don’t know how.〞She’ll probably be excited to know she’s got a fan(迷)!58. Jane usually travels for 2 hours at most and then she can have a rest of at least 3 hours. She meets a lot of interesting people from all over the world. She says she likes it because she doesn’t have to work full- time so she can spend more time with our three children and me.59. When Mrs. Poor got into the lift, she was carrying only a handbag. Aftera few seconds, the lift stopped between floors. She shouted and shouted, and rang the alarm(警报). But nobody heard her.60. I’ve known her for four years and I really like her. But she always copies everything I do. If I buy s ome new clothes, the next day she’ll go out and buy exactlythe same ones. It’s the same with music, films, even my friends!

If you’ve got one , what do you use it for ? Is it good for students to have mobile phones ? Here are some students’view s(观点) and experts’〔专家〕 advice about it ?1. Some people think it’s good for students to have mobile phones , because they can use them to make friends and if they are in trouble , they can ask the teacher for help . It’s very helpful .But some people hold different views . Some students see that others’ mobiles are better than theirs . They will ask their parents to buy them another expensive one . They are after the most expensive and coolest mobile phones . And this may upset 〔使苦恼〕 their parents .However , I think if you can use it in the right way , it will be good for you . If you can’t , it will be bad for you . — Jim2. Firstly , it is not good for students to spend too much time making phone calls . If you want to make a call , you can use the pay phone in the campus〔校园〕 .Secondly , mobile phones in class will bring too much trouble to teachers . If your mobile phone rings in the classroom , it may annoy〔使恼怒〕 your teacher and your classmates .Some students may use mobile phones to receive messages to cheat〔HY〕 during exams . So I don’t think it is good for students to have mobile phones . — Mary3. I think it is a good idea for students to have mobile phones , though sometimes it may have some negative effects . Some parents think that if their children have mobile phones , they will be safer . If a child is in trouble or sees something or someone suspicious(可疑的) , he / she can get help . The children can tell their parents when they miss the bus or are late leaving school so that their parents won’ t worry too much if they are late coming home . Mobile phones can help children to keep in touch〔保持联络〕 with their friends as well . —PeterExperts’ advice : Scientists say that only important calls should be made and they should be kept short . It’s not good for your health .

Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected(感染) in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman.There are different kinds of color blindness. For example, a man cannot see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades(影子) of green. Sometimes a perso n can’t tell thedifference between blue and green. Only a few unlucky men may see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a difficult thing to explain. In only one eye there are millions of very small thing s called “cones(锥状细胞)”. These help us to see in the bright light and to tell differences between colors. There are also millions of “rods(杆状细胞)”, but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shapes but not colors.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue light will. Human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the help of the cones in our eyes, we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the help of the rods we can see shapes at night.Choose the best answer according to the passage.( )1. “Color blindness” means “______” in Chinese.A. 盲目B. 无色C. 色盲D. 讨厌颜色( )2.
