是的,钱的确能使我们更快乐,但不是有钱能让我们快乐,而是给予别人钱能让我们快乐。

人们在奉献的时候会更快乐,这是因为让别人快乐,同时也会使自己快乐。

1. D【解析】细节理解题。

根据短文第一段最后一句话But the things that money can buy can not bring happiness to a person for long可知,用钱买东西不能长时间给我们带来快乐。

由此可知应选D。

2. B【解析】推理判断题。

题干中这句话But its not having money that brings happiness.意为:但是不是拥有钱带来快乐。

根据上下文的逻辑关系可知,Studies have found that money can, in fact, make people happier. 提到:事实上,钱使人们更开心;后面又提到Instead, it’s giving money to others that makes people happy是给别人钱使人们开心。

故这句话应放在②处,能使上下文意衔接,故选B。

3. C【解析】推理判断题。

这篇短文是议论文,讲述了真正让人们快乐的不是有钱,而是用钱来使别人快乐。

第二段的最后提到 This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too."让别人快乐也会让给予者快乐"。

为了使读者更好地理解这一点,作者讲了下面的故事。

因此C选项"使作者的观点更清楚"是正确的。

4. B【解析】主旨大意题。

这是一篇议论文,作者先讲述了用钱买东西并不能长久地使人们快乐,然后引出作者的观点This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too."使别人快乐也会让给予者快乐"。

故B选项"快乐的关键是使别人快乐",符合文章大意和主旨,故应选B。

Athletics vs. GardeningThe students of Southside School were asked to give their opinions about whether the school should run an athletic program or start a vegetable garden.An athletic program is hatch better than gardening. How are we ever going to win anything at the Inter-School Athletics without proper training? At the moment, we only do athletics for one tam and the teachers train us. We need experts(专家)to teach us things like throwing and high jump.I know lots of kids say they’re tot interested in competitions, but that’s because they’ve never won anything. If they got better training and started winning things, they’d soon change their minds.People always say kids don’t get enough exercise. Just because you do gardening outdoors doesn’t make it exercise, so I don’t sec how it matters.Athletics is much better for fitness and lots of kids can have a go at the same tine. I don’t think there would be enough jobs for everyone in a garden.In fact, I think a garden is a really bad idea. I don’t know why we’re even considering it.Liz, Grade 8 I think a vegetable garden is a great idea. We already do hours of sport, including athletics. And not everyone likes sport.Gardening is a great way to get exercise without worrying about whether you’reany good at it, or whether you’re go ing to win. And you really do gel exercise when you garden. There’s digging, weeding and watering Even picking things can be hard work –pumpkins aren’t light you know!There are lots of kids around here who don’t have gardens so they can’t grow things eve n they want to. If you really want to do more sport, you can join a club.And think about it: What helps you to be good at sport? You need to eat lots of fruit and vegetables. If we learn to cook all the things we grow, the garden will keep us all fit and healthy and then we’ll be better at sport.Sam, Grade 81. Which of these points do Liz and Sam both make?A. Kids should take exercise.B. Kids should eat vegetables.C. Kids should try to win more.D. Kids should be outside more.2. What is one reason Liz gives for saying "a garden is a really bad idea"?A. Some students don’t like getting dirty.B. Some students don’t enjoy being outside.C. Some students already know how to garden.D. Some students may have no chance to garden.3. Why does Sam say, "And think about it.: what helps you to be good at sport?"A. To change the subject.B. To introduce his next reason.C. To support Liz’s idea.D. To find an answer to the question.【文章大意】本文以Liz和Sam为例,介绍了南城学校进行的应该开展体育项目还是开设菜园所展开的讨论,代表了两种对立的观点:Liz支持体育运动,Sam支持园艺;但是他们都认为应该让孩子们多锻炼身体。

议论文三要素是论点、论据、论证。

议论点表明作者对某一方面的问题所持的主张、观点和态度。

事实论据即通常所说的“摆事实”,如客观存在的现实、发生的事件、确切的数字及案例等;而理论论据即通常所讲的“讲道理”,如原理、规则、法则、名人名言、经典著作等。

论证如同一条线,把需要的论据围绕着论点组织起来,贯穿在一起。

2. 写作攻略初中生在写议论文时要首先考虑自己的观点是什么,明确观点后要围绕观点进行论证,最后再进行总结。

There is no doubt that technology has had abig influence on our lives. People from all around the world can now talk to each other almost at once on mobile phones and theInternet. People can easily solve their problems with the help of computers and the world wide web. With this technology, it seems that the world is more connected now than ever before. Even so, there have been worries abouttechnology making people feel lonely and disconnected from others around them.So does this mean that technology makes us lonely?In my opinion, it is hard to say Yes or No.It’s true that humans need communication with each other. If we depend on technology too much to communicate, this can badly impact our mental(心理的) health. For me, technology is a tool. And just like any other kind of tool —like scissors, a pencil or a ruler, for example, it depends on how we use it: in a right way or in a right place. Take social media (社交媒体) as an example. If you only use it to compare yourself with others, you might feel sad and lonely. But if you use it as a tool to connect with friends and family or to start a new community to talk about your hobbies and interests, the loneliness will turn into love and friendship.When you feel lonely after staring at your computer screen all day, maybe you can use that technology to reach out to a reliable (可靠的) friend and invite him or her out for lunch or a coffee.1.

【中考英语总复习 考点专项练习】40 阅读理解之议论文(原卷及答案)

专项40 阅读理解之议论文议论文往往有观点,有事实,逻辑性强,命题往往从事实的有关细节及文章的主旨或作者的表达意图等方面着手,考查我们的思维能力和判断能力。

所以考生要培养根据上下文猜词的能力,或者说根据情境能揣测作者的意图。

议论文的阅读同其他体裁文章的阅读理解一样,可以有主旨大意、细节理解、推理判断、词义猜测等几种出题方式。

二、解题方法:一、重视文章标题,找准全文主题句,把握文章主旨标题往往是全文的主题,审视标题,有利于理解全文,提高解题效率。

主题句对全文起提示、启迪、概括、归纳之作用。

根据主题句既可以知道文章议论的是什么,也可以知道作者希望读者了解主题方面的哪些内容。

议论文题材偏难,但其框架一般都很清晰,多采用总—分—总的结构,交替使用正面和反面的论证方式。

通常,先总说现象或观点;其次,正面陈述、反面论证;最后作者表明自己的态度,再次总结文章。

通常主题句会出现在文章的首句或句末,在这些地方要多留意表示归纳的词汇,也可以在具体事例之后或之前的表示观点的陈述句中寻找。

二、细读文章,注意文章细节理解除主旨题外,细节理解题也是阅读理解题中的基础题,它主要考查学生对文中的具体事例、数字、时间、地点等的理解。

经常出现排序题(按事情发展顺序排序),图表题(按文章内容找出正确图形),正误题(依据文章内容对所列的陈述进行正误判断) 。

对这种题型,无论细节题如何变化形式,立足点都应是从文章中找出相应词句作为依据。

虽然答案中有的细节在文中很清楚,但可能与问题无关。

细节题的破解一般用寻读法,即先看试题,再读文章。

对有关信息进行快速定位,再将相关信息进行整合、分析、对比,有根据地排除干扰项,选出正确答案。

假如问题采用的是反向思维,题中含有not或except等表示否定意义的词,则需要更加留意。

此法可以加强阅读的针对性,提高做题的准确率。

做此类题目还要特别注意句子的逻辑关系。

三、理解整体语篇,掌握作者意图做推理判断题要求考生在阅读理解整体语篇的同时,对作者的态度、意图及文章细节的发展作正确的推理判断,站在作者的视角,而不是主观臆断、凭空想象,从而走入误区。

This is because they have the colors much like the trees.Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid (液体)when it faces danger.

And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews(侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a goody-goody like Mickey.In the 1930S, ‘ 40s and ‘ 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home.

One day the queen had a baby daughter. When they saw their baby, they both cried out, “My goodness! How small it is! It’s hairless and toothless! It’s a monster!” They sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered them to prepare some medicine for her.“When she drinks your medicine, she must grow to the right size and have hair and teeth,” the king said, “If you don’t do this, you’ll have a beating.”The doc tors thought it impossible, but they dared not say anything against the king’s order. Just then and old doctor stepped forward. “Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,” he said, “but it takes time. We have to dig a mineral from the KunLun Mountains when the snow melts for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years.

He was so well known for his good knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came to learn from him. The great man taught his students whole-heartedly and answered their questions with great patience.One day a student asked him, “ My dear teacher, didn’t you say you yourself have many ,many more questions about things than we do? But I think we students have far more than you.”With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circles ,one as large as a big cake, the other smaller. Then he said , “Of course, I have learned much more. But it’s wrong to think that a teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the bigger one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is yours. Out of the circles is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger circle. That means I have more o pportunities to face what is still unknown. And that’s why I myself have more questions than you do. The more you learn , the more questions you have. You will never learn enough ,you know.”()1. The learned man drew two circles to show _____.A. he was good at drawing circlesB. his knowledge had something to do with the circlesC. why he had more questions than the studentsD. how he could get more knowledge()2.

It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. Great scientists before us didn’t get everything from school .The ir teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their brain.()1.

According to the passage, the most important thing a teacher should do is________.A. to teach his students everything he knowsB. to know everythingC. to teach the students how to thinkD. to teach the students how to study by themselves()3.

I can remember everything about it . School boys in those days did not take good care of their chairs and desks. There was a rule in our school that if anyone damaged his desk or chair, he would have to pay five dollars or the teacher would beat him in front of the whole school.”“One day I damaged my desk in some w ay, I had to pay five dollars or be beaten before the whole school. My father said it would be too bad to have our family disgraced in front of the whole school. He agreed to give me five dollars to hand over the teacher. But before he gave me the money, h e took me upstairs and gave me a beating.”“But as I had one beating and I decided I would take another beating at school and keep the five dollars.

Now people would find out that, she would never be able to give a concert again . What should she do?Finally she went to see the famous man himself. She told him everything .Her parents were dead and she was alone. She had to make a living. She decided to give piano lessons to rich children. But who would send their children to an unknown young woman? She told people that Franz Liszt was her teacher.“I believe you,” Liszt said , “ You have done wrong, but I can see you are truly sorry about it. That’s enough. Now let me hear you play.”The young woman was shy at first ,But then she saw Liszt smiling. It made her feel better. Now she wasn’t afraid any more. She started playing .She put her heart into it and she played wonderfully, Liszt was quite pleased.When she finished , she turned to look at Liszt. There was a smile on his face. She could see he was pleased. Then Liszt gave her some advice, After he finished , he said, “ Now you really are my pupil. Go ahead with your concert. And you can add a note to the posters.

But can also be very harmful. Fire can heat water warm your houses, give light, and cook food. But fire can burn things too. It can burn trees, houses, animals, or people. Sometimes big fires can burn forests.Nobody knows for sure how people began to use fire. But there are many interesting, old stories about the first time a man or woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man very, very long time ago. He went up to the sun by a rope and brought fire down.Today people know how to make a fire with matches. Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be very dangerous. One match can burn a piece of paper, and then it might burn a house. A small fire can become a big fire very fast.Fires kill many people every year. So you must be careful with matches. You should also learn to put out fires. Fires need oxygen. Without oxygen they die. There is oxygen in the air. Cover a fire with water, sand, or in an emergency, with your coat or something else. This keeps the air away from a fire and kills it.Be careful with fire, and it will help you. Be careless with fire, and it will burn you.()1. Which is true?A. We are not sure how people started to use fire.B. It is an Australian who started a fire.C. We know how people began to use fire.D. Nobody knows how to make a fire.()2. Children mustn’t play with matches because ______.A. matches burn paperB. it is not interestingC. matches can be dangerousD. they don’t know how to make a fire with matches()3.

2020年高考英语阅读理解议论文专题练习题(附答案)1.根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。

Editor: Today our topic is part-time job. Are they good for school children or not?Headmaster: Certainly not. Children have got two full-time jobs already: growing up and going to school.Part-time jobs make them so tired that they fall asleep in class.Mrs. White: I agree. I know school hours are short, but there's homework as well, and children need a lot of sleep.Mr. White: Young children, perhaps some boys, stay at school until they're eighteen or nineteen. A part-time job can't harm them. In fact, it's good for them. They earn their pocket money instead of asking their parents for it. And they see something of the world outside school.Businessman: You're quite right. Boys learn a lot from a part-time job. And we mustn't forget that some families need the extra money. If the pupils didn't take part-time jobs, they couldn't stay at school.Editor: Well, we have got two for, and two against. What do our readers think?(1)Who have the same opinion?A. Headmaster and Mrs. White.B. Editor and Mr. White .C. Mr. and Mrs. White.D. Businessman and Headmaster.(2)Mrs. White thinks the young children maybe ________.A. need to stay at school until they are eighteen or nineteenB. need to have some pocket moneyC. should see something of the world outside schoolD. need to have a lot of sleep(3)What does the editor think of part-time jobs?A. They can help students from poor families.B. They are good for school children.C. They cannot harm school children.D. We are not told.2.阅读理解Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers' bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.(1)What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on?A. American kids' sleeping habits.B. Teenagers' sleep-related diseases.C. Activities to prevent sleeplessness.D. Learning problems and lack of sleep.(2)How many hours of sleep do 11-year-olds need every day?A. 7 hours.B. 8 hours.C. 10 hours.D. 18 hours.(3)Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon?A. They are affected by certain body chemicals.B. They tend to do things that excite them.C. They follow their parents' examples.D. They don't need to go to school early.3.阅读理解FaceApp has taken the world by storm, giving users the chance to see themselves age through its algorithm.12.7 million people—some three million more than the population of New York City—reportedly downloaded it in one seven-day period last month.Although the Russian app has become known for its privacy issues, the more interesting lesson of our FaceApp fling (尽情玩乐)is what it tells us about our society—and our future lives. It turns out we are more interested in aging than we realized. I'm surprised by this. Most younger people are in denial (否认)about old age, doing almost nothing to prepare for it. We rarely have a chance to plan for the future, with increasing time and financial pressures. Those pressures bring sacrifices that we may not always want to make: we can no longer afford to spend the time or the money needed to look after our elderly parents.As a family doctor, I can see the loneliness epidemic developing. Elderly patients come to see me with no particular illness, no clear medical issue. After a few minutes of the consultation, I understand why: they're not sick, and often they don't feel sick. They just need someone—anyone-to talk to.Although loneliness has no medical classification, the health effects are real: the result of loneliness and isolation can be as harmful to our health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day, and is more damaging than obesity. But loneliness does not come with nearly enough health warnings.So what next? Since 1980, we are living on average 10 years longer. At the same time, people are having fewer and fewer children, and they are having them much later in life. The snake of a world class health service is eating its own tail; its care is prolonging (延长) people's lives, but as the ratio of pensioners(退休人员)to working -age people increases, there are fewer taxpayers to fund that very health service.Into this void have stepped NGOs, charities and volunteers. But in the long term, the only way to truly help the oldest meters of our society is to go back to the traditional values of intergenerational(两代间的) cooperation—often under same roof. Ultimately, we will need to evolve towards a culture where elderly care is treated the same as childcare, where employers recognize the duty of someone with an elderly parent the same way they recognize those of someone with a newborn child.(1)The example of FaceApp is used to _____.A. prove the popularity of itB. explain the function of itC. show the progress of technologyD. introduce the topic of aging and loneliness(2)What makes elderly people without illness go to see their family doctors?A. Desire to have the consultation.B. Strong feeling of loneliness.C. Unclear medical issues.D. Questions to ask doctors.(3)How can the oldest members be truly helped?A. By being treated as children.B. By going back to the traditional society.C. By providing family care.D. By living with other elderly people under the same roof.(4)What can we learn from the passage?A. The loneliness of elderly people needs more attention.B. FaceApp's popularity proves it has no security problems.C. Health service lacks fund because of prolonged peopled lives.D. FaceApp is helpful in dealing with elderly peopled loneliness.4.阅读理解Robots make me nervous—especially the ones which seem to think for themselves. I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, felt the same way.Gates said in an interview with the social networking and news website Reddit: “I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence. First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent.That should be positive if we manage well. A few decades after that, though, the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern.”Well, maybe I don't have to worry about my computer and kitchen equipment yet. After I use them I can always pull the plug. But in the future, machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off. There's a terrible thought!Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil like some we've seen in sci-fi movies. What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient. That's what philosopher Nick Bostrom from Oxford University believes. He says that machines are indifferent to humans and in pursuit of their own goals,the destruction of people might be just additional damage. Bostrom gives us an example: A machine which might have its only goal to produce as many paperclips as possible might look at human bodies as extra material for paperclips and go after you. Because it is, well, a machine, it would not take pity on you.It's a good thing that American writer Isaac Asimov thought about how far robots can go and left us his three rules of robotics. They state that a robot may not hurt a human being or allow the human being to come to harm.I'm glad my machines at home are “dumb”. All my cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room. Let's hope they don't create an appliance which wants to take over the world!(1)The author quoted Bill Gates' words in Paragraph 2 in order to make the text________.A. better-knownB. more persuasiveC. better-organizedD. more interesting(2)An intelligent paperclip machine would harm us because _______.A. it is much cleverer than usB. it would take over the worldC. it has the strong feeling of destroying usD. it would see us just as material(3)How does the author feel about Isaac Asimov's rules of robotics?A. OptimisticB. WorriedC. DisappointedD. Regretful(4)What does the text mainly focus on?A. The benefits of future robots.B. The new applications of robots.C. The concern for super intelligence.D. The popularity of robots in the future.5.阅读理解Differences are important and they should be respected. For example, many important people throughout history were considered different, such as Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein and Abraham Lincoln. They did great things, but some people thought they were strange because they had strong feelings about something. I can understand these people because I've been in that situation before many times.It all started in elementary school when I realized that I wasn't like everyone else. My mom says that I have a tendency to be obsessed(着迷)with certain subjects. Unfortunately, these subjects don't interest other kids of my age and they really don't interest my teachers. In fact, my kindergarten teacher said she would scream if I mentioned snakes or lizards one more time while she was teaching the days of the week. I would get into trouble for not paying attention and the teasing began.In the third grade, my teacher informed me that I have Asperger's Syndrome(症状). I said, “So what? Do you know that Godzilla's suit weighs 188 pounds?”Later, I asked my mom, “What's Asperger's Syndrome? Am I gonna die?” She said that it's like having blinders on, and that I can only see one thing at a time, and that it's hard to focus on other things.People also make fun of me for knowing facts about volcanoes, whales, tornadoes and many other scientific things. My mom says that she has been able to answer many questions on Jeopardy! just by listening to what I have to say, but I've even been laughed at for being smart.Maybe someday I'll become a gene engineer and create the real Godzilla.
