中考英语英语阅读理解专题练习(含答案)一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1．阅读理解At some point in life, many people develop a mental (精神) problem.While most people get over it, for others it doesn't go away easily.The WHO says that about 20 percent of teenagers worldwide suffer from mental illness. It's thought that the number of teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main causes of illness, and even death.In China, the picture isn't bright, either. About one tenth of teenagers under the age of 17 have a mental health challenge.The world is changing fast. Study and relationships have always caused stress, but today the stress is much higher than before, the WHO said.A research centre in Oxford University says that young people today have big stresses at school. For example, they experience bullying (欺凌). In a 2017 report, the centre noted that the Internet was a special source (渠道) of stress. Online, young people often see "messages about perfection" and this causes the young "great uncertainty about their futures", says the centre.Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don't ask for help with their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they say that they are in mental trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a similar point. And in the UK, over three quarters of young people believe their mental problems have a social stigma. It is reported in 2017 that a quarter of young UK people wouldn't ask for help if they developed a mental problem.Young people who don't ask for help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Elaine Peng warned that, "If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.""My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—ask for help," he told China Daily.（1）Which of the following is NOT the cause of stress according to the passage?A. Heavy schoolworkB. Being bullied at school.C. Some information from the Internet.D. Certainty about the future.（2）Why don't Chinese people ask for help with their mental problems?A. They don't think them serious.B. They can get over them in time.C. They can keep their mental health secret.D. They are afraid of being looked down upon.（3）What does the underlined word "stigma" most probably mean in Chinese?A. 羞耻B. 印象C. 援助D. 危害（4）Elaine Peng advised the teenagers with mental illness to ______.A. think less of themselvesB. avoid being bulliedC. ask for help as soon as possibleD. stay away from the Internet.（5）The main purpose of the passage is to ______.A. ask research centers for helpB. tell about teenagers' stressesC. call public attention on teenagers with mental illnessD. show some different opinions from different countries【答案】（1）D（2）D（3）A（4）C（5）C【解析】【分析】大意：本文讲述世界上许多人有精神疾病，到2020年世界上有一半的青少年患精神方面的疾病。

However，one autumn，things changed.It began witha tiny disagreement about a horse，which grew into a major difference. The difference led to angry words, followed by weeks of silence between the two brothers.One morning there was a knock on Paul's door.He opened it and saw a builder holding his toolbox.“I'm looking for a few days' work，”the builder said.“Are there any jobs here I could help with?” “Yes, ”answered Paul, extremely pleased to see the builder.“I do have a job for you. Look at that farm across the creek(小溪).That's my brother's farm.

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 the rest away.1. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling______. A. relaxed B. worriedC. hungryD. proud2. 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 businessmanB. worked hard all the timeC. lived a rich but healthy lifeD. knew how to make money4. The underlined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph refers to______.A. the best part of the watermelonB. the writer's busy lifeC. the writer's decision of making moneyD. the writer's hope of enjoying life5. It can be learned from the passage that ______. A. one has to work hard to reach his goal B. a friend in need is a friend in deed C. watermelon is the healthiest fruitD. one should keep work-life balance答案：ABCDD3Hundreds of years ago，a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland.

The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside，taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more，the war would be over. Suddenly，one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment，they were on their feet and ready for battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved their country.The thistle is not a beautiful plant.

There are only a few men in all of history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased onlybecause someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work.But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. He tried to understand them, and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them.Edison enjoyed thinking.

Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she'd said again, “it's for Elizabeth. ”I never saw her get angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any wayshe chose that she did forgive(原谅) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn't be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told, as she'd never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.1.

Sir, I wish…” He hesitated(犹豫).

He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(残疾的) brother. He sat down on the step and pointed to the car.“There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And some day I'm going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I've been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

But my daddy can't pay for it, so I have brought all my money.” “How much do you have?” asked the man. “$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.“Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers.” He took up the girl's hand and said, “Take me to where you live.

中考英语英语阅读理解专题练习(及答案)50一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1．阅读理解At some point in life, many people develop a mental (精神) problem.While most people get over it, for others it doesn't go away easily.The WHO says that about 20 percent of teenagers worldwide suffer from mental illness. It's thought that the number of teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main causes of illness, and even death.In China, the picture isn't bright, either. About one tenth of teenagers under the age of 17 have a mental health challenge.The world is changing fast. Study and relationships have always caused stress, but today the stress is much higher than before, the WHO said.A research centre in Oxford University says that young people today have big stresses at school. For example, they experience bullying (欺凌). In a 2017 report, the centre noted that the Internet was a special source (渠道) of stress. Online, young people often see "messages about perfection" and this causes the young "great uncertainty about their futures", says the centre.Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don't ask for help with their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they say that they are in mental trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a similar point. And in the UK, over three quarters of young people believe their mental problems have a social stigma. It is reported in 2017 that a quarter of young UK people wouldn't ask for help if they developed a mental problem.Young people who don't ask for help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Elaine Peng warned that, "If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.""My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—ask for help," he told China Daily.（1）Which of the following is NOT the cause of stress according to the passage?A. Heavy schoolworkB. Being bullied at school.C. Some information from the Internet.D. Certainty about the future.（2）Why don't Chinese people ask for help with their mental problems?A. They don't think them serious.B. They can get over them in time.C. They can keep their mental health secret.D. They are afraid of being looked down upon.（3）What does the underlined word "stigma" most probably mean in Chinese?A. 羞耻B. 印象C. 援助D. 危害（4）Elaine Peng advised the teenagers with mental illness to ______.A. think less of themselvesB. avoid being bulliedC. ask for help as soon as possibleD. stay away from the Internet.（5）The main purpose of the passage is to ______.A. ask research centers for helpB. tell about teenagers' stressesC. call public attention on teenagers with mental illnessD. show some different opinions from different countries【答案】（1）D（2）D（3）A（4）C（5）C【解析】【分析】大意：本文讲述世界上许多人有精神疾病，到2020年世界上有一半的青少年患精神方面的疾病。

2．阅读理解One day, while I was waiting for my father, I saw a little boy, around two years old, running freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance. The boy had a big smile on his face as if he had just been set free from some sort of prison(监狱) . The boy would then fall tothe grass, get up, without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could, again, still with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.At that moment, I thought to myself, "Why aren't most adults this way?" Most adults, when they fall down, make a big deal out of it and don't even make a second attempt. They would be so embarrassed that they would not try again if someone saw them fall. Or, because they fall, they would find a good excuse for themselves that they're not fit for it. They would end up being too afraid to attempt again for fear of failure(失败) .However, with kids, when they fall down, they don't consider their falling down as a failure, instead, they treat it as a learning experience. They try again and again until they succeed. The answer must be that they have not connected "falling down" with the word "failure". What's more, they probably think to themselves that it's quite okay to fall down and that it's not wrong to do so. In other words, they allow themselves to make mistakes, so they remain energetic.I was deeply impressed by the boy's persistence(坚持不懈) and the manner in which he did.（1）What did the little boy do when he fell down?A. He cried and lay on the grass.B. He asked his mother for help.C. He got up and went on running.D. He got up and stood there crying.（2）In the writer's opinion, what might the little boy regard his falling down as?A. A failure.B. A joke.C. An interesting game.D. A learning experience.（3）In the writer's opinion, why can't many adults succeed?A. Because they are afraid of being embarrassed.B. Because they can't find a good excuse.C. Because once they fail, they won't attempt again.D. Because they don't allow themselves to make mistakes.（4）The underlined word " attempt" in Paragraph 2 means .A. 尝试B. 放弃C. 面对D. 怀疑（5）What does the writer want to tell us?A. Practice makes perfect.B. Failure is the mother of success.C. All roads lead to Rome.D. Each coin has two sides.【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）C（4）A（5）B【解析】【分析】大意：本文讲述的是作者的一次观察男孩跌倒后自由奔跑所得到的启示。
