【人教新目标】2019年中考英语二轮复习专项练习:阅读理解(十二)附答案
2019年中考英语阅读理解编习题(十二)附答案第一篇(2019中考选练)As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream.In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.1. Which of the following isn’t mentioned in this passage?A. You may think you’re not good at some school subjects.B. Making your dreams real is life’s b iggest challenge.C. You must never give up your dream.D.

Everyone Can Realize His Dream参考答案DCDAB第二篇Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, politics, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much moreis to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. 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 scientis ts before us didn’t get everything from school. Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison didn’t 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. People go to school to _________.A. learn several subjectsB. make a livingC. get an educationD. learn from teachers2. According to the passage, the most important thing a teacher should do is _________.A. to teacher his students everything he knowsB. to know everythingC. to teach the students how to thinkD. to teach the students how to study by themselves3. To work out a math problem, you need to know _________.A. only a certain formulaB. more than one formulaC. some factsD. the method to solve it4. Why were many scientists so successful?A. They received good education.B. They were very clever.C. They knew how to learn.D. They learned lots of facts and formulas.5. How did great scientists study?A. They read a lot of books and asked many questions while reading.B. They did thousands of experiments.C. They always worked hard and never wasted time.D. All of the above.参考答案1-5 CDDCD第三篇The customs in different countries are rather different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host, he always puts more food onto my plates as soon as I have emptied them. It often discomforts me greatly. I have to eat the food even if I don’t want to, because it is considered bad manners in the West to leave one’s food on the plate. I have already noticed that w hen a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often refuses the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good manners in china, but it is not in the West at all. In the US it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or insist on him accepting something. Americans have a direct way of speaking. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say “No, thanks”. When an American is fed with beer by the host, for example, he might sa y, “No, thanks, I’ll take some Diet. Pepsy–cola if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the US, you had better remember the famous saying, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”.1. From the passage, we know that the Chinese are usually _______ to the guests.A. eager to give all they haveB. politeC. impoliteD. cold2. When a foreigner has dinner with a Chinese host, he often feels _________.A. pleasantB. uncomfortableC. satisfiedD. happy3. Why does a Chinese often refuse the offer of food or drink at a dinner party? Because _______.A. he has had enoughB. he is shyC. he is afraid that others will laugh at himD. he thinks it’s polite to do that4. When an American wants something to eat or drink at dinner, he will _________.A. go and take it himselfB. refuse the hosts offerC. ask for it directlyD. ask another to fetch it for him5. “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” Means ________.A. when you get to Rome, you should act as the Romans doB. when you stay in Rome, you should do as the Romans doC. when you are in a new country, you should do as the natives doD. Romans can be example for you参考答案1-5 BBDCC第四篇A Giant Cycling HolidayAre you between 12 and 20 years old?Are you looking for the perfect holiday?Would you like fun,new friends and a new experience by bike?We have the answer!

It was terrible.On the next day,the headmaster came and told my two teachers what had happened.I was taking a rest that day. I knew it had something to do with my mother. I kept thinking that she either died or had gotten better. How I wished that she had gotten better. When my teacher took me outside,my sister ran up to me. She started crying,“She‘s gone. Teresa,mommy’s gone. She‘s dead.” I couldn’t’t believe it. We jumped into the car and drove straight to the hospital. Most of my family were there. The silence was terrible.

My mother was an angel walking on the earth. I will always remember her as living. When someone isasked who their hero (英雄) is,they usually say someone famous,like Michael Jordan or Britney Spears. When someone asks me who my hero is,I tell them,my mother. My mother lives every day. That is what makes her a true hero.根据以上短文内容,然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。

2019年中考英语二轮复习【阅读理解题】专练卷11Passage 1(2019中考日常生活类训练)Dear Sunday Globe,I am writing to tell you about your article Smartphones Make Life Easier in last Sunday’s newspaper. You did an excellent job explaining the good points of smartphones, but you didn’t talk about their bad points at all. So, I hope you’ll let me give your readers some advice on smartphone etiquette (礼仪). The first point I’d lik e to address is loudness. When you talk on your smartphone in public, please don’t shout. In fact, the microphones in smartphones are very sensitive (灵敏的). So, you can be heard even if you speak quietly.Another point is about personal space. I don’t think it is polite to make calls in small spaces full of people. This makes others uncomfortable and forces them to listen to your personal business. What’s worse, it stops many face-to-face conversations from ever beginning.Lastly, doing two things at the same time is dangerous. For example, making calls while driving is a bad habit. Pay attention to the road! Similarly, when staying with your friends, turn off your smartphone and enjoy their company.Yours truly,Amber Jala1. Amber Jala wrote the letter to ________ .A. find a good jobB. provide adviceC. make her life easierD. buy a smartphone2. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. 致函B. 称呼C. 陈述D. 选址3. According to Paragraph 3, what makes people around you uncomfortable?A. Discussingface-to-face. B. Speaking quietly on your phone.C. Minding your own business.D. Calling in small spaces full of people.4. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. It is dangerous to drive on the road.B. It is easy to start a company with others.C. It is bad to turn off our phones while driving.D. It is important to use our smartphones properly.参考答案1B 2C 3D 4DPassage 2(2019中考教育类选练)Do you consider failure as an ending? Do you often feel after a failure that you are good for nothing? Then be careful, you are one of them who have bad relationship with failure. And this is the only reason why people often keep themselves away from their success. The power of failure is that it helps us to learn fro our mistakes and missteps and we must consider a failure as an opportunity to grow rather than giving up.Let's discover the reasons why successful people believe that opportunity lies in every failure.Disappointment or failure shows that you are tryingThe best way to gauge(衡量)your progress at something is to see how many times you failed. In case you haven't failed yet, chances are that you haven't tried hard yet.Look at all successful men and women throughout our history, they all had one thing in common. That's to say they failed not once but several times before they achieved success. Let's take an example of Thomas Edison: he failed a lot of times to find right filament(灯丝)for his light bulb. Henry Ford had a stronger relationship with failure, which inspired him to quote this unforgettable saying “failure is the opportunity to begin again, more intelligently.”Achievement lies in looking at failure as an opportunityJust like every successful person had one thing in common, similarly all unsuccessful persons throughout our history had one thing in common --- their inability to use failure as an opportunity and a tool. If you feel your one failure is your ultimate (终极的)failure, and that feeling of sinking down is known as an ultimate failure, you are pushing yourself away from your expected success. Achievement is all about finding out what mistakes you made, what is the main cause of that failure, and how you are going to make up for it.Success requires willpower, passion, hard work, intelligence, determination, but all of the above, success requires failure. Use your failure as an opportunity to learn, to become wiser and to reconsider your relationship with failure, the true key to success.1. According to the writer, why do people keep themselves away from their success?A. Because they don't set long-term goals.B. Because they haven't got enough time.C. Because they can't deal with failure properly.D. Because they are disappointed in themselves.2. Why does the writer take the example of Thomas Edison?A. To explain the reasons for failure.B. To prove the importance of failure.C. To take pride in Thomas Edison.D. To introduce the process of making a light bulb.3. What can you learn from the passage?A. Failure can build up your confidence.B. Successful people seldom failed.C. Failure is more important than success.D. Successful people use failure as a tool.参考答案1. C 2. B 3.

Fortunately, most earthquake safety measures are common sense, but if you forget everything else, remember the following instructions: drop, cover, and hold on. Also, most of earthquake deaths happen after the earthquake, so remember that the danger does not end when the shaking does!If you stay indoors during an earthquake, move away from unsupported areas and windows. Try to get under a doorway or another area of the building which is held up by strong beams(梁). Stay under a table or desk only if it is very strong. Do not rush to lifts, because it is far safer to stay where you are. Cover your head with your arms around it and curl(蜷缩) into a ball, and wait for the shaking to stop.If you stay outdoors during an earthquake, move to an area which is as open as possible. Don’t move to buildings, electric poles and other objects which may fall during an earthquake and injure you. Protect your head and stay low to the ground till the shaking ends and it is safe to move.After an earthquake, many buildings are less strong, although they appear safe. If you stay indoors, move people from the building quickly and help disabled or injured people. Once outdoors, move well away from the building so that if it falls down, you will not be injured. Wait till public safety officials announce that it is safe to stay indoors.By planning ahead and keeping calm during an earthquake, you can greatly increase your chances of survival(生存) without injury.( ) 1.The underlined word “Fortunately” in the first paragraph means______ .A.especiallyB. graduallyC. luckilyD. finally( ) 2.We can learn from the passage that earthquake safety measures________ .A. are planned for childrenB. help us to keep safeC. are not necessaryD. are not easy to understand( ) 3.According to the passage, it isn’t a good choice _________during an earthquake.A. to take a liftB. to stay under a strong tableC. to get under a doorwayD. to cover the head with arms around it( ) 4.If you stay outdoors during an earthquake, you can do all the followingexcept________ .A.trying to protect your headB.moving to an open placeC.moving away from buildingsD.taking the disabled people into the room( ) 5.The purpose of the passage is mainly to tell us how to________ .A.stay away from an earthquakeB.predict an earthquakeC.control an earthquakeD.keep safe during and after an earthquake参考答案1C 2B 3A 4D 5D。

2019年中考英语:阅读理解优编题(10)及答案【实战训练】 A(2019中考教育类选练)Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended."That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty (诚实) is," said the school's headmaster. The school says no cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas."I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11."Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed,” said Hua Sha."I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed," Liu Qingxi said."I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.( ) 1. The passage mainly (主要地) talks about ______________.A. how to pass an examB. how to make students honestC. whether there is cheating in examsD. whether invigilators are needed in exams ( )2. No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang held a no-teacher exam to _________.A. let the students have a good restB. teach the students in a better wayC. help all the students pass the examD. find whether the students were honest ( ) 3 From what the students have said, we know _____________A. invigilators really help them a lotB. all of them think it is a good ideaC. something unusual never happens in examsD. not all of them agree with the headmaster( )4. In the sentence "And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens" "they" refers to (指)_____________.A. studentsB. headmastersC. invigilatorsD. schools( )5. Do you think it’s a good idea to have no-teacher exams at your class?Why? _________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________参考答案1D 2D 3D 4C【实战训练】 BPeople often say, “Children can’t do math problem, it’s because parents can’t do their children’s homework.” Here’s an example to show what I mean.The other day my daughter brought home her math homework. “I have to subtract (减) 179 from 202,” she said.“It’s quite easy,” I said. “You put the 202 over the 179.”“But we need a 10 here. Where is the 10?”“I don’t know where the 10 is. Let’s just subtract 179 from 202. Nine from two is three. You carry one and add it to seven. Eight from zero is two. The answer is 23.”“We can’t do it that way. We have to use the 10.”“Well, I’m going to call your teacher to see how she subtracts 179 from 202.”Over the telephone, I said that I was having a bit of trouble with the homework she had given to my d aughter. The teacher said, “In the right-hand column (栏) we have units of one. The two in that column counts for two ones. The zero in the center countsfor zero tens. The two in the left-hand column counts for hundreds. Are you clear?” But I didn’t think I was clear.I hung up and found my way to the medicine box. My head was now hurting. I started putting pills of medicine into my mouth. “How many did you take?” my wife asked. “I took one and then I took another…I know one and one was two, but don’t ask me what it is now.”11.

2019春中考英语:阅读理解及答案(限时:30分钟)A“It’s over! Thank goodness!”School was over and I was tired. I sat at the front of the school bus.Janie, the driver, always tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere (气氛) by talking. I try to listen politely, but usually I’m busy thinking about my day. On this day, however, her talk was worth listening to.“My father’s ill,” she said. I could see worry in her eyes. I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students with a smile.With a sudden feeling of interest, I asked, “What’s wrong with him?”With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, “Heart trouble.” Her eyes lowered as she continued, “I’ve already lost my mom, so I don’t think I can stand losing him.” I couldn’t answer. My heart ached for her.I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died.I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her. I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that.Suddenly I realized Janie wasn’t only a bus driver, which was just her job. She had a whole world of family and cares too.I shouldn’t have been so selfish. I paid no attention to Janie becauseshe was a bus driver. I had judged (判断) her by her job and considered her as an unimportant person.Understanding people is an art.1.After she learned about Janie’s story, the writer thoughtof .A.her father’s deathB.her mother’s painC.the ache of her own heartD.the pain of Janie’s parents2.The writer found herself selfish because she had .A.never thought of her mother’s painB.thought of Janie as nothing but a driverC.thought of herself as an important personD.never listened to others while they were sad3.In this passage the writer tries to tell us that .A.losing parents makes people sad and helplessB.understanding people around us takes timeC.we should learn to understand people around usD.it’s not right to judge people around us by their clothes or jobs BIt was a fine spring day with beautiful flowers in the park.

But he was so short-tempered(急性子的) that he wasn’t in the mood to enjoy the view.Suddenly, an angel appeared. “Put this button onto your clothes. If you don’t want to wait, just turn the button to the right. You canskip over any period if you want to.”The man happily held the button and turned it softly. Oh! How amazing! His girlfriend appeared before him and was gently smiling at him! “How I wish our wedding ceremony could be held now!” He turned the button once again. A great wedding appeared in front of him. The beautiful bride (新娘) was standing next to him and the band was playing cheerful music. He lost himself in it deeply.The desires(愿望) in his heart kept coming out: I also want a big house with a garden in front. He turned the button. Then he wished for children. All of a sudden, a group of lovely children were playing happily in the huge living room. Again, he jumped at the chance to turn the button to the right.How time flew! Before he could see beautiful flowers in the garden, everything had been covered in deep snow. Looking at himself again, he found his hair was totally white. He had already become so old.He felt so sad. He would rather enjoy life step by step than watch it go by in such a hurry. He quickly turned the button to the left. Once again, he was waiting for his lovely girlfriend under that big tree.4.Which of the following words can best describe the young man?A.Handsome.B.Kind.C.Smart.D.Impatient.5.What does the underlined phrase in the second paragraph mean?A.Spend.B.Pass.C.Wait.D.Save.6.How did the young man feel about the wedding ceremony scene?A.He felt bored.B.He felt confused.C.He loved the moment.D.He wanted to see it again.7.What’s the main idea of the story?A.You can have lots of fun waiting for others.B.Let nature take its course, and enjoy your life journey.C.Time flies and we should learn to hurry to do things.D.The more you expect, the more you will be disappointed.CRunning in Cold Weather Improves PerformanceCold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open air. However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather helps improve one’s performance.Many people say running in winter can be difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your body loses less water than in warmer conditions. The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from sports scientists at St. Mary’s University in London.John Brewer is a professor of applied sport science at St. Mary’s. For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room they called an “environmental chamber”. The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room. The test subjects were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions. Brewersays he and his team recorded biological measurements(测量) of the runners. “We’ve got a group of subjects into the environmental chamber, we’ve changed the conditions to recreate summer or winter and we’ve got them to run 10km under both of those conditions and taken various measurements on each runner while they’ve been completing their 10km.”They found that the runners lost water by around 30.38% more in those hotter conditions. Besides, Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat is by sweating(出汗). He says the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. “That heat builds up in the body and can be really damaging unless you can lose that heat. And it’s much harder to lose heat when the environment is warm as well.” And they found their perception of heat was around a third lower when they were running in cold conditions. The body does not have to work as hard to pump blood to the skin’s surface.Several websites note that the most important thing for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. Keeping as dry as possible is the most important when exercising in low temperatures. So, if you are a runner, don’t let winter weather keep you indoors. Simply get ready for the low temperatures and start running.8.According to the passage, John Brewer probably agrees that .A.people should run 10,000 meters in winterB.running in winter is good for your heartC.people who run in winter like to wear thick clothingD.running in cold conditions is better than in warm conditions9.The underlined word “subjects” in Paragraph 3 probablymeans .A.students that are being discussedB.classes that you study at schoolC.people that are being testedD.runners that the artists paint10.What can we infer from the passage?A.Running can help us lose heat.B.Running in cold weather is beneficial to our body.C.The heat can’t damage our body.D.The body does not have to work to pump blood.11.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A.To introduce a research on running by Brewer.B.To explain why running in winter is difficult for people.C.To encourage people to run outside during winter months.D.To advertise the new websites on running he created.DLife is full of surprises and you never know how things will turn out.Sir John Gurdon is a good example of this. As a boy, he was told he was hopeless in science and finished bottom of his class. However, aged 79, the very same Gurdon shared the 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine with Japanese stem cell(干细胞) researcher Shinya Yamanaka.Like so many scientists, Gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance(坚持不懈) can lead.At the age of 15 in 1948, Gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject. Gurdon’s high school science teacher even said that his dream of becoming ascientist was quite ridiculous.In spite of his teacher’s criticism, Gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard. He went to the lab earlier and left later than anyone else. He experienced thousands of failures.“My own belief is that we will, in the end, understand everything about how cells actually work,” Gurdon said.In 1962, Gurdon took a cell from an adult frog and moved its genetic (基因的) information into an egg cell. The egg cell then grew into a clone(克隆) of the adult frog. This technique later helped to create the sheep Dolly in 1996, the first cloned mammal(哺乳动物) in the world.In 2006, Gurdon’s work was developed by Yamanaka to show that a sample (样本) of a person’s skin can be used to create stem cells. Using this technique, doctors can repair a patient’s heart after a heart attack.“Luck favors the prepared mind,” Gurdon told the Nobel Prize Organization. “Ninety percent of the time things don’t work, but when they do, you have to seize (抓住) the chance.”12.Who won the 2012 Nobel Prize in Medicine?A.Sir John Gurdon.B.Shinya Yamanaka.C.Sir John Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka.D.Gurdon’s science teacher.13.What does the underlined word “ridiculous” mean in Chinese?A.无知的B.无畏的C.荒废的D.荒谬的14.According to the passage, which statement is true?A.As a boy, Gurdon was told he was hopeful.B.Gurdon ranked first at his high school in biology.C.It’s impossible for the doctors to repair a patient’s heart after a heart attack.D.In spite of his teacher’s criticism, Gurdon kept working hard.15.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Ninety percent of the time things don’t work.B.Luck favors the prepared mind.C.Life is full of pleasure.D.How cells actually work.参考答案A 1-3 BBCB 4-7 DBCBC 8-11 DCBCD [主旨大意] 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了科学家Gurdon刻苦钻研,克隆出青蛙,最终获得诺贝尔医学奖的故事。

In their eagerness (渴望) to make money form trees, some people have cut trees down in large numbers, only to find that without them they have lost the best friends they had. And besides (此外), they are usually too careless to plant and look after new trees, so the forests slowly disappear.This doesn’t only mean that men will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: where there are trees, their roots (根) break up soil—allowing the rain to sink in and also bind (固定) the soil, thus (因而) preventing it from being washed away easily, but where there are no trees, the rain falls and carrying away the rich top—soil. When all the top—soil is gone, nothing remains (剩下) but worthless desert.1.

2019年中考英语阅读理解编习题(二)附答案【能力选练】 A(2019中考选练)If you want to become a fluent(流利的)English speaker you should take some advice: There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meanings of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it_As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.1. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?A. Reading and writing.B. Reading and listening.C. Writing andspeaking. D. Speaking and listening.2. The underlined phrase "come across" in Paragraph 2 can probably be replaced by "_______".A. meet byaccident B. discoverC. find on purposeD. look for3. The author seems to agree with the view that_______.A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every dayB. you needn't practice listening if you keep on reading every dayC. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listeningD. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing4. The passage is mainly about how to_______.A. choose suitable listening materialsB. deal with new words in readingC. read as many English books as possibleD. become fluent in speaking and writing English参考答案BACD【能力选练】 B中考英语阅读理解****浪费可耻Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源), we are short of(缺乏) others, for example, fresh water(淡水). It is reported that we will have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources,what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps(水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.◆根据以上短文内容,然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。

2019年中考英语阅读理解编习题(6)附答案【能力选练】 A(2019中考科普环保类选练)Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives. For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite. Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving .Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls.Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to US through satellites. Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location.We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another. They are usually 35,880 kilometers above the equator. Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place. This is because it is moving around the world at 11,000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates.A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae facing the earth. Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit,So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position .This usually happens about every five or six days.Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth. A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years. Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired. Often,very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time. This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other.1.Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage?A. Sending information for weather forecast.B. Taking photographs of the Earth.C. Sending TV pictures.D. Providing food for airplane pilots.2.What’s the speed the earth rotates at?A.35,880 kilometers per hour.B.335,880 kilometers per hour.C.11,000 kilometers per hour.D.110,000 kilometers per hour3.Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates?A. In order to take photographs.B. In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit.C. In order to move away from its orbit.D. In order to send television pictures.4.What does the underlined word “This” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?A. A satellite.B.A little rocket.C. A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky.D. The satellite puts the rockets in the right position.5.Which is true of satellites?A.

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.

2019中考英语:阅读理解(限时:30分钟)AHave you ever been on a student exchange program? How useful was it? We asked three people for their opinions.EllenI spent 8 days in Germany when I was studying for my Level A. I went to school every day, and spent the evenings with a family. It was great because I had to speak German all the time. However, the most useful thing was that I was paying more attention to communicating in the language, instead of speaking perfectly correct German. I was really glad that people could understand what I was saying. I’d certainly introduce it to other students studying languages.FrankI went on an exchange with my class for a week in Japan. Before the exchange, I thought my understanding of grammar was pretty good, but I had much trouble in listening and speaking. So, what I thought most meaningful was that I had no choice but to use everyday language skills, rather than the language from books. If I had the opportunity, I’d certainly take part in another language exchange.AliceI took part in a French exchange. It lasted two weeks, and I stayed with my exchange family in a small town just outside Paris. I’m quite a shy person,so in the first few days, I was kind of nervous, but then it was fine. I love French and my French has always been good. But the exchange really helped develop my speaking skills, and made me a much more confident(自信的)person. It felt great to be able to talk with French people. I also found that everyone who took part in the exchange did a lot better in their end-of-year exams.1.How long did Frank stay in Japan?A.For a week.B.For eight days.C.For two weeks.D.For half a year.2.What did Alice think about her exchange?A.It developed her listening skills.B.It made her more confident.C.It taught her exam skills.D.It took too much of her time.3.All three people would most likely describe their exchangeas .A.tiringB.excitingC.boringD.helpful4.Who will be interested in the passage above?A.Students who are learning a foreign language.B.Students who want to work as teachers later.C.Students who are interested in traveling abroad.D.Students who are not doing well in their studies.BThere are different ways to celebrate Teachers’Day in different countries across the world.China (September 10)In China, Teachers’Day is celebrated on September 10. It was first celebrated in 1931. In 1939, the day was set on August 27, Confucius’birthday. In 1985, it was decided that the day was to be celebrated on September 10. The day is celebrated in almost all schools in the country where the students show their appreciation to the teachers, such as presenting the gifts including cards and flowers.Malaysia (May 16)In Malaysia, Teachers’Day is known as “Hari Guru”and is celebrated every year on May 16. The celebrations are usually held on May 16, or earlier if it falls on a Saturday or Sunday. The celebration is mainly in the schools and colleges with students giving greeting cards, flowers, books and other things of appreciation to their teachers.India (September 5)In India, Teachers’Day is better known as “Shikshak Divas”and is celebrated on September 5 every year. It is celebrated in almost every school in India, with teachers and students going to school as usual but the usual activities and classes are replaced(代替)by activities of celebration, thanks and remembrance. Even many former(以前的)students show respect to the former teachers by visiting them and handing a rose.Vietnam (November 20)Teachers’Day is celebrated in Vietnam on November 20 and is betterknown as “Vietnamese Educators’Day”. It was first celebrated in 1958. Today, the holiday provides an opportunity for students to show respect to their teachers. Senior students usually visit their teachers to offer flowers and small gifts.

They didn’t know that their father had purchased the plane tickets and booked the hotel already.After weeks of preparing for their tests, John and Nancy passed their tests. They were on their way to the airport to catch the early flight to Orlando.As soon as the plane took off, Nancy started to complain about getting an earache caused by the pressure change(气压变化), while John was so busy looking out of the window, and telling his mom that the cars on the highway looked so tiny from the plane. About half an hour later, they were both sound asleep. They slept throughout the flight, and woke up only when their mother told them that the plane was about to land.Once they landed, John asked, “Are we going to Disneyland now, Daddy?”“No, not now, John. We’ll go tomorrow,”the father replied.“But why not now, Daddy?”Nancy asked.“Because we have to check into the hotel first, and then get something to eat, and by then, it’ll be too late to go to the park,”her mother said.The next morning, John got up at 6:00 a.m. and woke everyone up. “Up, up, everyone! We have to go. We don’t want to be late,”he shouted.So, all of them woke up, took their showers, had their breakfast at a nearby restaurant, and went to Disneyland. John and Nancy loved all the fun rides in the park and had lunch with Mickey. The family had lots of fun visiting Animal Kingdom, Epcot, and Universal Studios throughout the week they spent in Orlando.The kids thought that was the best week because their parents made their dream of taking a trip to Disneyland come true.8.The underlined word “purchased”means .A.boughtB.soldC.looked forD.given up9.The third paragraph mainly tells us .A.what they saw on the planeB.what they did on the planeC.how to deal with an earache on the planeD.how to sleep well on the plane10.Why did John get up so early and wake others up the next morning?A.Because he couldn’t wait to go to Disneyland.B.Because the service in the hotel was bad.C.Because he wanted to take a shower earlier than others.D.Because he was hungry and wanted to get something to eat.11.Which of the following is NOT true about Disneyland according to the passage?A.It’s John and Nancy’s dream to take a trip to Disneyland.B.John and Nancy liked the fun rides in Disneyland.C.John and Nancy had lunch with Mickey.D.When the plane landed, they went to Disneyland at once.DMom and Dad are two of the most important people in your life. You probably see at least one of them every day and, over your lifetime, they may influence you more than anyone else you will meet.Moms and Dads need to care for their kids from the minute they were born. It’s a parent’s job to love and help kids—and most parents will try their best to do this, even when the “kids”grow up and have children of their own. That means you have many years ahead to share with your mom and dad.Here are some ways you can stay close, get along, and build a strongrelationship(关系).Spend time together. Don’t play a computer game or watch TV by yourself. Ask your mom and dad to play with you, go outside together, play a game, or read a book out loud. Try to spend more time together.Share your feelings and ask for help. Many kids say they’d like their parents to help them when they’re unhappy. Tell them if you’re sad or have a problem. They’ll be happy to help you.Be kind and caring. Little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten a parent’s day with a hug, a card, or a joke.

2019中考英语阅读理解:政治、经济、文化类一、阅读理解Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren’t many hooks, few people learned to read.Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online.
