They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced because of visitors' rude behavior.Chen Jie,18,a student in Tongji University ,is one who would be against opening to the public.“ I have been to a public library before. People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone soconcentration( 专注 ) has influenced her. “ If too many strangers stay here,the whole library willbe a noisy place and it's difficult for us to study quietly. ” she said.Will there be alternative( 可代替的 ) ways to share those libraries? Some experts consider thatuniversity libraries can stop the public from entering certain areas.“We might keep magazines foracademic research only for teachers and students,” said Zhu Lina , library director in JinanUniversity.Working together with the community library is another solution(解决方法).“ It's possible thata member of the public can order a book in our library over the Internet.,the library” Ge Jianxiong director in Fudan University said.“ We'll send it to a public library close to their home.1. We can see from the passage the Wang Ling ________.A.hates to study in the libraryB.prefers sightseeing to readingC.feels good to play with kidsD.is a university student aged 212. In Chen Jie's opinion , visitors to university libraries may ________.A.take up too much spaceB.break the peace thereC.make teachers relaxedD.get students to read more3. The writer quotes( 引用 ) two library directors' words to help explain how to ________.A.manage libraries onlineB.keep the public politeC.do scientific researchD.share university libraries4. Where is the passage most probably taken from?A. A newspaper.B. A notice board.C. A diary.D.

The British Museum seems to think so.“ A history of the world in 100 objects , an exhibition” about rare and ancient objects from the world ,has made it success.The British Museum says it owns at least 8 million historical objects. But why choosethese 100 objects to tell stories of our world's history?It all started with a challenge( 挑战 ).Neil MacGregor ,who was once director of the British Museum ,was asked by BBC to choose 100 objects from the museum's huge collection. The objects had to include things from the beginning of human history about 2 million years ago to the present day.MacGregor accepted , and took four years to choose each object himself.In 2010 , MacGregor appeared on BBC radio ,giving a detailed( 详尽的 ) explanation of each object. The show was a big hit and all these 100 objects were shown in the British Museum. A book with photos of each object soon followed.“ The objects had to cover the whole world , from a cooking pot to a golden galleon , from a Stone Age tool to a credit card. ” MacGregor wrote.The collection includes many important objects from China. There is a banknote from the Ming Dynasty , showing China as the first country to use paper money.But it's not just ancient things that are shown. Among them are some modern things like a solar-powered lamp and even a throne made of weapons created by an African artist.“ Of course , the_collection_could_only_be ‘ a’historyof_the_world. But it is still ahistory that people in the present world need to know. ” MacGregor wrote.1.“ A history of the world in 100 objects”.is a(n)________ programme about AfricaB.challenge of scientific researchC.book about modern developmentD.exhibition of the world's history2.

What does the underlined sentences in the last paragraph mean?A.There will be another collection of this kind soon.B.The history of the world is too long for us to show.D.The collection only shows part of the world's long history.三、 (2017 ·天津 )As an English ,I can speak three languages— English ,German and French,so do you think the British people are very good language learners? The fact is that they aren't.Some statistics(数据 ) from the survey done by the European Commission( 欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people,56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.And the survey also showed that English is the most widely- spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That's why my people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.In Britain ,students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.To solve this situation , the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices.Changing the British attitude( 态度 ) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!1. Which country does the writer come from?A. America.B.China.C. Britain.D. Egypt.2. Which of the following about the British people is true?A.They are good language learners.B.62% of them speak two or more languages.C.They are famous for speaking foreign languages.D.More than half of them only speak English.3.According to the passage, students in Britain prefer to learn ________.A.science or GermanB.history or GermanC. science or historyD.German or French4.In Paragraph 4,“ an option ” means ________.A. a choiceB. a gameC. a mistakeD. a conversation5.What is the best title of the passage?A.Speaking EnglishB.Foreign Language Learning in UKC.Schools in UKD.Young English Learners四、(2017 ·浙江杭州 )Class Afloat is a Canadian school on a tall ship!

These restaurants served food in large stone bowls people didn’t order food from a menu. Everyone used to share the food from big bowls. People believe that these places were very popular because most homes in ancient Greece and Rome did not have kitchens. Also , people didn’t have to store food at home if they ate their meals at these restaurants.Later, restaurant began to open in China. In the early 1100s, more than one million people lived in the city of Hangzhou, China. It was a very busy city, and people had money. All of these people had to eat. Smart cooks started cooking and selling food along the Imperial Way, a very big street in the city. Unlike in ancient Greece and Rome, people in China could choose food from a menu. They didn’t have to eat the same food as everyone else.For the next several centuries, there were restaurants all over the world. People could buy food on the street or at inns-- small hotels. Then in the middle of the 1700s, restaurants started opening in Paris. These restaurants were more similar to restaurants we know today. There was a bigger variety of food, and eating in these restaurants was a more enjoyable experience. In the 19th century, trains made travel much faster and simpler. In the end, this kind of restaurant began to appear all over Europe and in other parts of the world.Now, restaurants are everywhere. You can buy a variety of different kinds of food.

为了帮助⼤家,⼩编整理了⼀些初中英语阅读理解给⼤家练习,希望能帮到⼤家! 阅读理解【1】 If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering. 1. The main reason for one is poor memory is that _______. A. his father or mother may have a poor memory B. He does not use his name or legs for some time C. his memory is not often used D. he can’t read or write 2. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time _______. A. you can’t use them any more B. they will become stronger C. they become weak and won’t become strong until you use them again. D. they will become neither stronger nor weaker 3. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs. B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don’t give it enough chance for practice. C. Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory. D. A good memory comes from more practice. 4. Some people can’t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _______. A. they have save much trouble B. they have saved much time to remember things C. they have to use their memories all the time D. they can’t write everything in a little notebook 5. Which is the best title for this passage? A. Don’t Stop Using Your Arms Or Legs B. How To Have a Good Memory C. Strong Arms And Good Memories D. Learn From the People 本⽂讲述有关记忆⼒的⼀些知识。

My heart was in the right place, but Icouldn’t always follow the rules. I played many tricks on my schoolmates. Once, I even pulled a girl’s hairon the school bus to get her attention. As a result, I was repeatedly sent to the office of the principal(校长).Although I hated going there, I did not hate the principal, Mr. Ratcliff.Mr. Ratcliff was a kind, elderly man. When he spanked(打屁股)me for putting some ants into aclassmate’s pen cil bo x, it didn’t hurt at all, but it did hurt my feelings. I though t so much of him andmoments like that seemed to prove I was hopelessly bad.When I got called to Mr. Ratcliff’s office for the sixth time, I had no idea what I had done. I feltdisappointed as I walked down there. I went into his office, sat down, and looked at the floor. Then he saidthe last thi ng I expected to hear:” Kevin, I’ve heard you’ve been behaving really well lately. I want you toknow how proud I am of you, and I just called you down to my office to give you a peppermint.”“Really?” I was surpr ised.“Yes. Now you can take that peppermint and go back to class.”I carried the peppermint with me as if it was a gold coin. When I got into my classroom, I bragged (吹嘘)to my classmates about my turnaround,excitedly. I wasn’t so bad after all.Mr. Ratcliff was really kind. He made me realize that I was just a kid who had problems with behavior.He bought some peppermints and took the time to notice me when I got something-anything-right. Mr.Ratcliff gave me some hope by giving me some love. I will just remember him for the rest of my life.45. In his seventh grade, the writer __________.A. hated the principalB. had problems behavingC. always followed the rulesD. often helped his classmates46. How did the write r feel when he went to the principal’s office for the sixth time?A. Lonely.B. Excited.C. Confident.D. Disappointed.47. The sixt h time the writer went to the principal’s office, he got __________.A. a peppermintB. a model busC. a pencil boxD. a coin48. The writer will always remember Mr. Ratcliff, because the principal __________.A. talked with him in the officeB. played games with himC. expected him to be a teacherD. gave him some hope and loveCBuying Is Doing?How important is shopping to you? How much time do you spend buying things? And how much time do you spend organizing these things in your home? In the future, how much time will you spend in movietheaters, at amusement parks, at shopping malls, or at convenience stores? When you add it all up, you will probably see you spend a lot of your life consuming(消费)things. Consuming products is not necessarily bad. However, if we spend too much time doing it, we should look at it carefully.Imagine that you ha ve a week off from school. You don’t have to go to class. However, in this week,you cannot spend any money ----- no shopping, no movies, no eating out. How would you spend your time?What things would bring you happiness? Perhaps you would take a walk with your best friend. Perhaps youwould help a child read. Or you might spend time with your family.When we look back, it is likely that non-consuming experiences like these will be our most important memories. Why? Non-consuming activities are active, not passive. They don’t come in a package. You make the experience yourself. For example, each person who reads to a child will have a different experience. The experience changes with the reader, the child, and the book. Similarly, when you have a conversation with a friend, you are actively creating an experience. The conversation that you have with your friend cannot be experienced or recreated by anyone else. However, if you watch a movie with a friend, you will each have a package experience. It requires no action and little interaction between the two of you.The environment we live in encourages us to have packaged experiences. We feel that we must consume because we believe that buying is doing. However, we can start a personal revolution (变革)against consumerism. How? By consuming less. We can ask ourselves what experiences bring us the greatest satisfaction. Then we can organize our lives so that we have more of those kinds of experiences.49. If consuming products takes too much time, we should ____________.A. spend less moneyB. think about it carefullyC. organize our thingsD. go to convenience stores50. According to the passage, the writer believes that _____________.A. we can say no to consumerism by consuming lessB. buying things can bring us the greatest satisfactionC. the environment seldom influences our shopping choicesD. consuming experiences will be our most important memories51. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To introduce some ways of enjoying our spare time.B. To encourage people to have more active experiences.C. To explain reasons behind people’s shopping behavior.D. To share his personal experience in consuming products.DSay you’re si tting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game thathappens to be one of your favorites. “Oh, that game’s easy. So not worth the time,” one of your friends says.The ot hers agree. Although you enjoy the game quite a lot, not wanting to argue with them, you go along with the crowd.You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure(同伴压力), also called peer influence. You will adopt a certain type of behavior, dress, or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your “peers”. As a teen, you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas.We are all influenced by our peers at any age. For teens, as school and other activities take you awayfrom home, you may spend more time with your friends than with your family. As you become moreindependent, your peers naturally play a greater role in your life.According to Dr. Casey from Cornell University, teens are very quick and accurate in making decisionson their own and in situations where they have time to think. However, when they make decisions in theheat of the moment or in social situations, their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers. In arecent study, teen volunteers played a video driving game, either alone or with friends watching. Theresearchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends werewatching, compared with when they played alone. This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around, or in situations where they are extremely angry.Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices, they can also influence us to make good ones. A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it, or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important. In fact, friends often encourage each other to study, or try out for sports.While we are always influenced by those around us, the decision to act or not is up to us. So when it comes to decision making, the choice is up to you.52. According to the passage, Dr. Casey probably agrees that teens ____________.A. like to play driving games with their friendsB. prefer situations where they have time to thinkC. may take more risks when their friends are aroundD. are slow in making decisions when they are on their own53. The words “in the heat of the moment” in Paragraph 4 probably mean“_________”.A. when teens avoid possible risksB. when teens trust their judgmentC. when teens lose control over their angerD. when teens give consideration to situations54. What can we learn from the passage?A. Teens are eager to be different from their peers.B. Peer pressure has effects on both teens and adults.C. Peer pressure does more harm than good to teens.D. Tees think it challenging to get good grades at school.55. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Peer Pressure: Is It Necessary to Deal with It?B. Peer Pressure: Is It Possible to Get Away from It?C. Peer Pressure: Its Benefits to Teens and Friend MakingD. Peer Pressure: Its Influence on Teens and Decision Making 2017年上海市初中毕业统一学业考试Reading comprehension (阅读理解)(共50分)A.

A person called William Randolph Hearst built it between 1922 and 1939, at a cost of more than $30 million. Last year, I had a trip to that castle.I spent the whole day looking around. But there was much to see, and a day wasn’tenough. Hearst Castle has four houses. The main house, “Casa Grande”, is the biggest one. Visitors can live in the other three ones. Many of them are Hollywood film stars, and they often come to the parties there.At Hearst Castle, there are also beautiful gardens and two swimming pools, one inside and a larger one outside. I loved the one outside, the “Neptune Pool”. It was a pity that we couldn’t go swimming there!The guide told us that Mr. Hearst travelled around Europe with his mother at the age of ten and looked at paintings and castles. He never forgot that tour and wanted his house to look like a castle. When Mr Hearst died in 1951, his family gave Hearst Castle to the people of California. Now it’s a museum.根据短文内容,选择正确答案。
