九年级中考英语阅读理解专练第（一）篇Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey(土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends .Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more?1.

Take famous poet Li Bai for example. His family nam e, which came from his father’s name, was Li. His given name was Bai, and his courtesy name was Taibai.People used their given names when they were among family members. But in social life, they called each other by their courtesy names to show respect. This was mostly done among people of similar age. If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name.Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married.One’s courtesy name often had something to do with one’s given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean “carriage (马车)”. Zhuge Liang’s given name was Liang, which means “bright”. His courtesy name was Kongming, which means “very bright”.1. How many parts are there in people’s names in ancient China?A. three.B. four.C. five.D. six.2.

Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. “I’m also disabled and I want to do something for them with my music,” said Ma.Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the “colorful” music through sound and emotion.Ma’s mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.“After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises,” said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, “As I’ve been practicing so long, it’s hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practicing.”In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the CentralConservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream, though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. “All my hard work has paid off.

Ma’s story tells us __________.A. old habits die hardB. there is no place like homeC. practice makes perfectD. a good friend is like a mirror第（四）篇We know many musical instruments well, such as pianos, violins, drums and so on. What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and itbecame quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying (伴奏) instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally (口头地), there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians (历史学者) usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).1. When did the erhu become a popular instrument?A. In the Tang Dynasty.B. In the Song Dynasty.C. In the Ming Dynasty.D. In recent years.2.

The erhu is used in both traditional and modern music now.4. You may read the passage in the ________ section of a newspaper.A. cultureB. businessC. healthD. nature5. The passage mainly talks about ________.A. the forms of folk musicB. the history of the erhuC. the rise of different dynastiesD. the development of Chinese instruments第（五）篇Just a few days after his 18th birthday, Beijing 2022 gold medal winner Su Yiming received a surprise gift—aletter from Xi Jinping, President of the People’s Republic of China.In the letter, Xi expressed his congratulations to Su and other sportsmen in ice and snow sports for their great achievements at the Beijing Winter Olympics, hoping what they had achieved would encourage young Chinese to aim(立目标) high.When Su first stepped onto a snowboard at the age of four, a future as a world-class sportsman seemed to be “a dream too big” for him. Little did he know that he would not only compete for his country but also take home gold. With the great excitement of winning an Olympic gold medal still fresh in his mind, Su wrote a letter to the president, telling him how lucky he felt to have made his dream come true.Su still remembers what Xi wrote in the reply, “The new era is the time for young people to realize their dreams.”“I have always kept those words in my mind,” Su said.“When I made up my mind to be a professional(职业的) snowboarder, I know there is a big gap between my performance(表现) and that of the top sportsmen in the world. But I have been working hard to realize my dream. Now my story shows the fact that hard work will pay off.” Su said.Su believes the sky is the limit. “Find the thing you love, believe in yourself and do your very best. Finally, your dream will come true.”Now Su has his strong wish to win all the competitions in his sporting field.1. What was the surprise gift Su Yiming got after his birthday?A. A letter.B.

Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, and usually far way from cities. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.The National Parks in England are called “England’s Breathing Spaces” because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems too. First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.How can people help? All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.1.According to paragraph 1, what can we learn about the National Parks?A.There are only several national parks in the worldB.

In geographical newspapers第（八）篇During work hours, among the sounds of machines, the kitche n of Bach’s Bakery (面包房) is especially tidy and quiet, not because of any rules against talking during work hours, but because all of the workers have a hearing disability. They are hard-working and professional in their work, and use sign language to communicate with each other from time to time.Bach’s Bakery lies in Changsha City, Hunan Province. It is run by a German couple, Uwe Brutzer and his wife Dorothee Brutzer, who started it up ten years ago with the purpose of creating more jobs for those disabled in the neighborhood. So far, Bach’s Bakery has trained around 30 hearing disabled people. While some skilled workers found jobs in other bakeries and hotels and have been able to live on their own, several of them have stayed to work atthe bakery after they completed the training.The Brutzers’ work has won the support of many people in China. With the spread of news about the bakery, many Internet users learned about Bach’s Bakery and its inspiring story. As a result, many local people in Changsha as well as visitors from other parts of the country come to buy their products, Uwe said that public attention has encouraged them a lot and helped grow the bakery’s business, resulting in workers getting higher pay. However, what he values more is that, through media (媒体) reports, more people have come to understand that disabled people can work as well as other people when they are given chances.Now, as they are preparing to return to Germany, they have found a German couple teaching in China as the new managers, and handed over the bakery to a public welfare (福利) organization.

What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Silent BakeryB. A Special WishC. The Success of the DisabledD. The Rules of Bach’s Bakery第（九）篇Scientists are looking for ways that we can effectively use the light and heat from the sun. One idea that has caught their imagination is solar roads. They are expected to produce clean and renewable energy.With solar panels on the surfaces, solar roads cost more than traditional roads. However, besides the functions of traditional roods, they have the panels to receive sunlight and change it into the energy to supply power to homes, factories and street lighting. There are four layers in a solar panel:•Base layer: It is made of insulation material and forms a good grip with the road below this layer.•Middle layer: This is the most important layer. It holds all kinds of power lines connecting all the solar parts in the panel, like LED lights and the heating system.•Top layer: This layer is super-strong glass. It allows the panel to hold the weight of the heaviest vehicles.•Capping: This is the topmost layer used to offer extra protection to the solar parts in the panel. The layer must be rough enough to provide the traction for the safety of vehicles.With the smart design, solar roads can successfully charge the vehicles on them. And the roads have inbuilt LED lights to replace the traditional rood signs and lines, which are usually painted and harmful to humans. What’s more, the heating systems in the solar roads can take care of the snow and ice on the roads for drivers.Test solar roads have been built in several countries (France, China, USA, etc.) since 2014. The first word solar road project, Metrics of Watt Way in France, was set up by a French company called Construction Colas. It was an example of low effectiveness. In the first year, it had been expected to produce around 767 kWh of energy a day, but it only produced 409 kWh. Even so, the production could increase with design improvements. Of course, more time is needed before this technology is put into use.Solar roads may not be widely used in the near future, but they are indeed great for an environment-friendly and energy-saving world.1. Solar roads ________.A. offer power to homesB. get energy from factoriesC. keep the sunlight awayD. cost less than traditional roods2. Which of the following about the layers of a solar panel is TRUE according to the passage?A. The base layer is the most important layer.B. There are many power lines in the middle layer.C. The top layer lies on the top of the solar panel.D. The capping should be smooth enough for drivers.3. The first world solar road project ________.A. was set up in China in 2014B. showed high effectiveness as expectedC. was started by a US companyD. could get better with design improvements4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Solar Roads: A Widely Used InventionB. Solar Roads: A Safety Guard for DriversC. Solar Roads: A New Idea for Clean EnergyD. Solar Roads: A Way to Produce LED Lights5. Which part of newspaper may you read this passage?A. HistoryB. FashionC. SportD. Environment第（十）篇Steven Spielberg is the world’s most famous director. Hundreds of millions of people around the world have seen his films like Firelight, Amblin’ and The Color Purple. His films include two of the most popular films: Jurassic Park and E.T: The Extraterrestrial.Each of Steven’s parents had a deep influence on the young boy’s growing and character. His mother had given up her job when she married. When Steven was six, his father took him to Philadelphia to see his first film, The Greatest Show on Earth. Steven enjoyed this exciting circus (马戏团) story, however he could not understand how a circus could perform on a screen. Part of him felt disappointed that he couldn’t smell the sawdust (锯木) and gunpowder.When Steven was twelve, his parents bought an 8mm Kodak movie camera. Steven’s father handed Steven the camera and asked him to try. The first efforts were terrible, but Steven was interested in camera. He used his toys as characters and began making short films. By his teens Steven had made his first short film, called The Great TrainCrash. Before long the Spielberg house began to look like a film set, with furniture and lights being moved around to prepare for a new film.He is skilled in making a film excite, sadden or amuse people as they watch it. Spielberg understands the life in the countryside, television and fast cars, all of which became more common in his childhood in 1950s America. Films such as Jaws and Close Encounters of the Third Kind succeed because they are about ordinary people.After all the years Steven Spielberg had spent dreaming about getting into Hollywood.

人教版初中英语中考英语复习： 难度较大的阅读文章含答案(一)
Trying to Find a PartherOne of the most striking findings of a recent poll in the UK is that of the people inbterviewed,one in two believes that it is becoming more difficult to meet someone to start a family with.Why are many finding it increasingly difficult to start and sustain intimate relationships?Does modern life really make it harder to fall in love?Or are we making it harder for ourselves?It is certainly the case today that contemporary couples benefit in different ways from relationships.Women no longer rely upon partners for economic security or status.A man doesn't expect his spouse to be in sole charge of running his household and raising his children.But perhaps the knowledge that we can live perfectly well without a partnership means that it takes much more to persuade people to abandon their independence.In theory,finding a partner should be much simpler these days.Only a few generations ago,your choice of soulmate （心上人）was constrained by geography,social convention and family tradition.Although it was never explicit,many marriages were essentially arranged.Now those barriers have been broken down.You can approach a builder or a brain surgeon in any bar in any city on any given evening.When the world is your oyster （牡蛎）,you surely have a better chance of finding a pearl.But it seems that the old conventions have been replaced by an even tighter constraint:the tyranny of choice.The expectations of partners are inflated to an unmanageable degree:good looks,impressive salary,kind to grandmother,and right socks.There is no room for error in the first impression.We think that a relationship can be perfect.If it isn't,it is disposable.We work to protect ourselves against future heartache and don't put in the hard emotional labor needed to build a strong relationship.Of course,this is complicated by realities.The cost of housing and child-rearing creates pressure to have a stable income and career before a life partnership.31.What does the recent poll show?A.It is getting more difficult for a woman to find her husband.B.It is getting increasingly difficult to start a familyl.C.It is getting more difficult for a man to find his wife.D.It is getting increasingly difficult to develop an intimate relationship with your spouse.32.Which of the following is NOT true about a contemporary married couple?A.The wife doesn't have to raise the children all by herself.B.The husband doesn't have to support the family all by himself.C.The wife is no longer the only person to manage the household.D.They will receive a large sum of money from the govemment.33.Which of the following was NOT a constraint on one's choice of soulmate in the old days?A.The health condition of his or her grandmother.B.The geographical environment.C.The social convention.D.The family tradition.34.Which of the following is NOT expected of a partner according to this passage?A.Good looks.B.An impressive career.C.A high salary.D.A fine sense of humor.35.The word"sustain"（paragraph 2）could be best replaced byA."reduce".B."shake".C."maintain".D."weaken".第二篇Milosevic's DeathFormer Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic was found dead last Saturday in his cell at the Hague-based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.The 64-year-old had been on trial there since February 2002.Born in provincial Pozarevac in 1941,he was the second son of a priest and a school teacher.Both of his parents died when he was still a young adult.The young Milosevic was"untypical",says Slavoljub Djukic,his unofficial biographer.He was"not interested in sports,avoided excursions（短途旅行）and used to come to school dressed in the old-fashioned way-white shirt and tie."One of his old friends said,he could"imagine him as a station-master or punctilious（一丝不苟的）civil servant."Indeed that is exactly what he might have become,had he not married Mira.She was widely believed to be his driving force.At university and beyond he did well.He worked for various firms and was a communist party member.By 1986 he was head of Serbia's Central Committee.But still he had not yet really been noticed.It was Kosovo that gave him his chance.An autonomous province of Serbia,Kosovo washome to an Albanian majority and a Serbian minority.In 1989,he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against.But instead he played the nationalist card and became their champion.In so doing,he changed into a ruthless （无情的）and determined man.At home with Mira he plotted the downfall of his political enemies.Conspiring（密谋）with the director of Serbian TV,he mounted a modern media campaign which aimed to get him the most power in the country.He was elected Serbian president in 1990.In 1997,he became president of Yugoslavia.The rest of the story is well-known:his nationalist card caused Yugoslavia's other ethnic groups to fight for their own rights,power and lands.Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.War started and lasted for years and millions died.Then Western countries intervened.NATO bombed Y ugoslavia,and he eventually stepped down as state leader in 2000.Soon after this,Serbia's new government,led by Zoran Djindjic,arrested him and sent him to face justice at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in the Hague.36.Where did Milosevic die?A.In a basement.B.In a prison.C.In Kosovo.D.In his own country.37.Which of the following is NOT true of the young Milosevic?A.He dressed in a pretty old-fashioned way.B.He was not interested in sports.C.He

Cup competition will see teams competing to play the world's best football.But the football they play will not all be of the same kind.The fans expect different styles of play from Brazil,Germany,or Italy.What makes Brazilian football Brazilian?Our style of playing football contrasts with the Europeans because of a combination of qualities of surprise,accuracy and good judgment.This style has won Brazil five world cups.Yet many Brazilian fans only count four of these victories.In 1994,the team abandoned this style for modern,scientific training and tactics.The team won the cup,but in a boring way.The ltalians think differently."To many ltalians,the score 0-0 has a glorious quality,suggesting perfection,"says the British football writer Simon Kuper.In the ltalian culture,the idea of face is very important.This is why ltalian teams are traditionally built around strong defences.The Dutch footballer Johan Cruyff once said that ltalian teams never exactly beat you.It's just that you often lose to them.In Holland,there is a tradition of decision making through argument and discussion.It is a society where everybody is expected to have a point of view."Every Dutch player wants to control the game,"says Arnold Muhren."You play football with your brains and not your feet.""A Dutch player argues,"says Simon Kuper."An English player obeys his superior.He is a soldier."The qualities valued in English football are military-strength,aggression and courage.This can make for exciting football.But it also means that the English find it difficult to use skillful players.David Beckham is usually criticized for his failure to defend-despite the fact that he is an attacker.If the English like to fight,the Germans like to win.In recent years,Germany has tried to change its image as a country of ruthless efficiency and a desire for victory at all costs.But Germans are quite happy for these qualities to remain in their national football team."Football is a simple game,"Gary Lineker once said."You kick a ball about for ninety minutes and in the end the Germans win."It's difficult to predict who will win this year's World Cup.There is no strong favorite.But a look at the track record of previous winners shows that it is the nations with the strongest national characteristics in the football that perform best.It seems that you need to know where you come from if you want to get to the top.41.Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of the Brazilian style of playing football?A.Accuracy.B.Surprise.C.Good judgment.D.Ruthless efficiency.42.Why do many lialians think that the score 0-0 has a glorious quality?A.Because it makes no one lose face.B.Because the ltalian team is not very strong.C.Because ltalians are nice people.D.Because that score is what their team could obtain.43.What is one expected to do in Holland?A.To play football.B.To express his or her opinion freely.C.To make a fuss about nothing.D.To beat his or her opponents ruthlessly.44.Which of the following is NOT true of the British football players?A.They are aggressive.B.They are courageous.C.They play football for friendship.D.They obey their superiors.45.Who will win this year's World Cup?A.The Brazilian team.B.The ltalian team.C.The German Team.D.It is unpredictable.31.B32.D33.A34.D35.C36.B37.D38.B39.C40.A41.D42.A43.B44.C45.D提高初三英语复习成绩的技巧与方法在三年的英语学习中，学生成绩已经出现等级分化；成绩好的学生帮助他们减轻压力，成绩中等的学生布置具体的学习任务，并给予具体的学习策略指导，成绩差的学生会破罐破摔，要帮助他们制定出各自英语学习的短期进步目标，激发其学习的原动力，激发出他们英语学习的兴奋点。

第一篇：As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid the teacher saw me.One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. "Let me tell you a story first," he said."When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a cardboard folded（折叠的）in half, wrote their names in bold（黑体）with the most eye-catching(弓| 人注目的)color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat.So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see it and call a listener's name dircctly.,^T couldn't understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.^,After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.1.Why did the writer lower his head? (No more than 8 words)2.What did Mr. Black want the students to do in his class? (No more than3 words)3.How did the speaker get to know the students' names? (No more than 5 words)4.When might the speaker give you more chances according to the passage?

There are three things you should remember: relax, sleep and eat well.A vacation is a time for relaxing, but very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are a tourist. There are so many places to visit: shops, parks, churches and temples（寺庙）. You may spend most of the days walking around these places. Tourists can be very tiring.

Or you may want to stay out late at night. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. The extra hour can make a big difference. Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well.

提高初三英语复习成绩的技巧与方法
在三年的英语学习中，学生成绩已经出现等级分化；成绩好的学生帮助他们减轻压力，成绩中等的学生布置具体的学习任务，并给予具体的学习策略指导，成绩差的学生会破罐破摔，要帮助他们制定出各自英语学习的短期进步目标，激发其学习的原动力，激发出他们英语学习的兴奋点。
使他们在不断学习的过程中，不断看到自己英语学习的亮点和成就感；最后，对他们在学习进程中所取得的点滴进步，真心地给予表扬和鼓励。
二、制订好复习计划
众所周知，九年级英语复习，时间紧、内容多、任务重。
我们都是采用三轮复习法，即基础知识复习、专项训练、综合训练和模拟训练。
本着中考命题“源于课本、高于课本”的原则，三个阶段之中，又以训练为主，也就是初中三年所学的全部内容为主。
在总复习中，我们把单词、词组、句型和语法知识作基础，发展听、说、读、写的基本技能，在培养学生口头上、书面上初步运用英语进行交际的能力的同时，着力培养学生的自学能力，以提高学生的整体英语素质。
第一轮：紧扣课本，打好基础
针对学生对已学基础知识，因时间长，部分内容已经遗忘的共性，要以课本为依据，按照课本的编排顺序，每一册、每一单元都要进行细致的复习，归纳语言点，讲透语言点运用，对各单元的知识点要进行梳理，同时应注意基础词汇、词组、句型的过关；力求抓住“三基”即基础知识、基本技能、基本解题方法。
同时配套练习，练习既要紧扣复习内容，又要难度适中，突出考点。
第二轮：专项训练，突出重点
以课本和中考考试说明书为主加强双基复习，认真梳理重要的知识点、语法知识体系、专项训练，帮助学生构建知识网络。
这一轮要求重点突出,学生在对基础知识掌握得比较扎实的基础上，相应地提高要求，进行系统化整理，抓住重点，强化记忆。
要求学生对在教材中多次出现，反复强调部分，应视为重点，格外加以注意。
同时有针对性地指导学生记忆的方法，培养记忆能力。
这一轮复习直接关系到中考的效果，这就要求我们在复习过程中防止简单的重复，反对面面俱到，遵循精讲精练的原则，做到讲——练——评相结合，引导学生探究问题，发现问题，解决问题，指导学生掌握解题要领，理解题目与题目之间的联系，使学生在答题时做到灵活运用，触类旁通，举一反三，变知识为能力。
第三轮：模拟训练，查漏补缺
指导与适应性训练，对学生进行书面表达训练、多做各种模拟试题，培养学生答题能力和应试技巧，进行查漏补缺。
目的是适应中考要求，提高考前指导与适应性训练和综合运用语言的能力。
本轮侧重培养学生审题、解题能力，同时要在教师指导下进行综合练习和模拟测试，知识考查和能力考查并重，从而使复习达到良性循环：基础知识——创新运用——能力形成。
三、注重细节提高课堂教学实效
1.课堂上过好单词、词组、句型关。
复习词汇时，每课堂组织听写大约20个单词，要求人人过关，对于默写不出来的学生，要不厌其烦地进行个别辅导。
熟记单词的同时还要对单词进行归类，反复自测，同时要善于归纳、总结与分辨，将易混的、易错的单词归纳在一起，单纯地背单词很枯燥，且不易记住，可将这些易错的单词放在句子中去理解与记忆，做到词不离句，既复习单词又为写作积累句子，并且要将三年的单词进行串联，经常出现便不易忘掉。
不过不规则动词表要必须记住。
在复习句子结构中，各种复合句就是重点，而一般简单句就是非重点；在单项词汇训练中复习名词时，名词为重点；而从英语词类知识学习上看，英语动词和介词又是重点，这不仅因为它们是英语语言使用中所密不可分的，更是因为英语动词的活跃程度和介词的固定搭配，都是汉语中所鲜见的。
在复习中，抓重点就是抓住关键性的东西，抓住英语考试中最常考的内容。
还要告诉学生如何归纳自身的难点。
要结合平时的学习和备考复习，不断总结、发现，确定自己的难点，并采取有效措施去解决它。
抓住重点、突破难点，可以使复习更加有成效，带动全部知识的掌握，促进使用能力的提高，是节省时间，取得高分，事半功倍的方法。
2.课堂上的完形填空训练和阅读训练
完形填空旨在考查学生在阅读中综合运用语言的能力。
完形填空考查考生在篇章整体理
解基础上的词汇搭配、惯用法,以及语法知识的运用能力和逻辑推理能力。
考生要提高正确率，必须具备扎实的语言基本功和较高的理解能力，同时还需要从语篇层次上把握语言材料，进行逻辑推理并综合运用语言知识，真正做到从知识立意向能力方向的转变。
所以我经常在课堂上用几分钟时间训练一篇文章，并当堂讲评。
所选文章内容丰富；通过训练提高了学生的解题能力，增强了学生的自信心。
阅读训练是培养学生的阅读能力。
一开始就要对学生有针对性的阅读训练，阅读的文章，内容、题材要广，贴近生活，而且富有时代性，目的是刺激学生的阅读欲望，全面提高学生的阅读能力。
老师对所阅读的材料进行适当点评，并有意识地对他们进行阅读技巧训练，如精读、略读、选读、带着问题读、利用关键词、关键句去领悟隐含的意思等，学生很感兴趣。
在阅读过程中也扩充了大量的词汇量，为学生进入更高层次学习打下了扎实的基础。
3. 课堂上的综合模拟训练
书面表达是一种指导性写作。
现在的考题更加注重开放性和灵活性，给学生更多的自我发挥的空间。
所以，在平时的复习中应有意地训练学生的笔头表达能力。
训练从句子、语段到语篇。
让学生口头复述课文，锻炼学生的语段表达能力，从教材中的内容为学生选好整篇的书面素材。
综合模拟训练是让学生提前进入中考的演习阶段，使学生更快地进入状态。
同时加强考前心理辅导是激发学生非智力因素的重要环节，对提高学生成绩很有帮助。
针对具体个性不同的学生，给予不同的心理辅导，使他们放下思想包袱，轻装上阵。
总而言之，九年级复习是辛苦的，有时也难免是枯燥的，必须提高英语课堂复习的有效性是多种多样的。
不管采取什么样的复习方法和手段，都应该从实际出发，并采取行之有效的措施，其复习效果也定会是事半功倍的，让我们的学生取得满意的成绩，顺利跨入高一级的学校。
