They're not really bad guests, but because the guest host relationship in China is much different than in some western countries, it appears they are not nice guests.

Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home,there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife's mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, ''Is it OK if I smoke?" But, don't be surprised if they say, "No, you can't smoke. " In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they do not allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your house, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.In China, you probably won't need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house,try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.( ) 1. Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the ______ in the world. A.best B. worst C. most natural D. most different ( )2. When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often ______ .A.buys some fruitB. feels like a godC. wants some giftsD. takes a cup of tea( )3. If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house,what will he probably Say?A.It's OK if you smoke here.B. Let's smoke together.C. Sorry, you can't smoke here.D. Smoking is a bad habit.( ) 4. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase "adapt to" in the passage ?A.think back toB. get used toC. look forward toD. keep close toPassage 20A new report shows what life might be like in 100 years from now. It describes skyscrapers that are much taller than today's buildings, underwater 'bubble' cities and holidays in space. The report is from a company. It asked experts(专家) on space and architecture, as well as city planners, to give their ideas on the life in 2116. They said the way we live, work and play will be totally different to how we do these things today. The experts used the Internet as an example.They said that 25 years ago, people could not imagine how the Internet and smartphones would change our lives. The Internet has completely changed the way we communicate, learn and do daily things. The experts said the changes in the next century would be even more unbelievable.Researchers questioned 2,000 adults about the prediction (预言) they thought weremost likely(很可能的)to happen in the future. They predicted that in the future, few people will go to an office but will work from home and have work meetings online. People will have highly developed 3-D printers that will let you download(下载)a design for furniture or a food recipe and then' print' the sofa, table or pizza at home. There will also be less need for visits to the doctor. We will all have a home health instrument that will tell us what the problem is and give us treatment. We will also be going into space for holidays and to get resources that we have used up on Earth. A prediction that is missing is whether people will need to study English.( )1.

2020年中考英语专题分类卷题型二阅读理解（判断正（T）误（F）型阅读卷二）Passage 11The American writer Sally Seaman tells young students some smart ways to find friends. Sally says founding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed (种子) and take care of it to make it grow.First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient. For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend could listen to your complaints (抱怨)and do his or her best to help you. To make a friend, you can't be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives.But things can not always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. If he or she doesn't want to talk,you can write a letter. There are three steps to be friends again: Tell him or her how you are feeling, say what your friend has done wrong and explain(解释) why you did this or that.Remember that friendship is one of the most important things in your life.( )1. Friendship is like a tree.( )2.To make a friend, you should make each other happy and share your lives.( )3. A good friend should have money and good looks.( )4.

Send a post card !Beautiful scenes of paradise(乐园) ,wild animals,silly pictures-you can find them all in one place. Where? On a post card !Have people always sent post cards? No. Before post cards, people liked sealed (密封的)letters.The idea for the first decorated(装饰) post card came to John P. Charlton in 1861. He thought a simple card with decorations would be a great way to send a note. Then in the late 1800s,post cards with pictures appeared. By law,people had to wnite their nol,e on the front-on the picture! The back was only for the address. Several years later, England allowed a divided-back post card. Then people could write their note on the back left side and put the address on the right. During the early 1900s,the golden age of post cards, picture post cards became a craze of the world. In 1908,Americans alone mailed over 677million post cards. Today,post cards are the third most popular collection in the world after stamps and coins.( )1. We can see some silly pictures on the post cards.( )2. Post cards were produced before sealed letters.( )3.In 1861, the first decorated post card appeared.( )4. Post cards were the most popular during the early 1900s.( )5.Stamps, coins and post cards are the most popular collections in the world. Passage 13Mrs.Jones was over eighty, but she still drove her old car like a young woman. Sheloved driving very fast, and she said that she had never been punished for a driving offence(违章) .Then one day, she nearly lost her record. A police car followed her, and the policeman in it saw her pass a red light without stopping.When Mrs. Jones came before the policeman,he looked at her seriously and said that she was too old to drive a car, and that her eyes had probably become weak with old age, so she had not stopped at the red light.After the policeman finished his words, Mrs. Jones, without saying a word, opened the big handbag she was carrying and took out her sewing(针线活). She chose a needle(针) with a very small eye, and threaded(穿线)it at her first try.When she had successfully done this, she took the thread out of the needle again and handed both the needle and the thread to the policeman,saying," Now it is your turn. You drive a car and you must see clearly. "The policeman took the needle and.tried to thread it. After trying for six times, he still didn't succeed, so Mrs. Jones wasn't punished. Her record remained unbroken.( )1. According to the passage,Mrs. Jones was only sixty years old.( )2. The policeman saw Mrs. Jones pass a red light without stopping.( )3. The policeman said that Mrs. Jones was too old to drive a car.( )4. Mrs. Jones chose a needle with a big eye and threaded it at her first try.( )5. The policeman tried for six times and succeeded at last.Passage 14Thang-ga(唐卡) is a special kind of painting. It was found only in Tibet, China. It started from the Tang dynasty(唐朝). Thang-ga paintings show Tibetan people's lives. In recent years, Thang-ga paintings have caught the public's attention. At the same time, the Chinese govemment has aLso tried hard to protect the art.The colors of Thang-ga paintings look wonderful and special. Because of the special environment of Tibet and the excellent skills of artists, the paints(颜料)used in Thang-ga paintings are different from other paints. They were made from minerals like gold and silver, as well as some plants. The paints were made by hand and the beautiful colors could last(持续) for hundreds of years.However, with the development of technology, people now use cheaper and easily-made chemicals to make Thang-ga paints. The traditional paints used in Thang-ga paintings took a lot of work and they were made in many secret ter people stopped making the paints and forgot about them. So the skills needed to make them were almost lost. The traditional Thang-ga paintings are difficult to find now.( )1. Thang-ga is a special and unusual kind of art.( )2. Thang-ga was found only in Tibet in the Tang dynasty.( ) 3. The special environment of Tibet and the excellent skills of artists make Thang-ga paints different from other paints.( )4. The colors of Thang-ga paintings can last for hundreds of years with modem technology.( )5. The skills of artists have been already lost, so it is difficult to find the traditionalThang-ga paintings.Passage 15As we know,all living things have to eat food. For a man,a tiger, a fish,a bird, or even a worm, food is necessary.Generally speaking, all living things are sure to die without food. In every part of the world,many different kinds of animals share living places and live in communities(群落) together. They are connected in a food chain(链) .Within a food chain, some living things are producers and some are consumers(消费者). Plants are producers because they use sunlight,soil and other things to make their own food. Animals are consumers because they have to eat other animals or plants.There are four different kinds of consumers in the animal kingdom. A carnivore is an animal that only eats other animals. An herbivore is an animal that only eats plants. An omnivore is an animal that eats both plants and animals. A scavenger is an animal that eats dead animals.Look at the picture.It is an example of a food chain. The food chain shows the order that animals eat each other in a community.In the picture, you can see what animal or plant is food for another animal. See? A leaf is food for a grasshopper,which then becomes food for a hungry mouse. The mouse is food for a snake. The snake is eaten by an eagle.In this way, all of these animals are connected.( )1. The main idea of the passage is "Four kinds of consumers".( )2. The underlined word "scavenger"means in Chinese "腐生动物". ( )3. The food for a mouse according to the picture is a grasshopper. ( )4. All kinds of animals share their living places with others. ( )5. There are some Living things which don't need to eat food.判断正误型阅读Passage 111.F2.T3.F4.T5.FPassage 121.T2.F3.F4.T5.TPassage 131.

题型二阅读理解（任务型阅读）1-10Passage 1（河北）Artificial intelligence( AI)（人工智能）is growing rapidly. We are living in a world that depends more and more on AI. AI is a group of technologies that help machines get, understand and use information to do tasks.AI's recent developments have got a lot of social attention. Some people have welcomed AI because it makes things possible. For example, AI will have a big influence on areas like medicine and engineering. But this attention has also produced a lot of fear. Especially, many workers are worrying that AI could make them lose their jobs.According to a recent study, nearly five percent of jobs will disappear because of AI. In some industries,AI is already doing the work that people used to do, such as assembling （装配）cars, digging the coal and lifting goods. Self- driving cars and trucks controlled by AI will also take away the driver's jobs in the future.On the other hand, AI will also create many new jobs for people. More people will be needed to write programmes for AI systems（系统）and they will set up and work on them, too. Meanwhile, jobs that require feelings, excellent communication skills with people will not be replaced（取代）by AI. These includes jobs in fields like teaching, nursing and personal training.AI is here. It is changing how people live and work in many ways. That makes AI important to watch, not to fear.1、2题完成句子；3题简略回答问题；4题找出并写下第二段的主题句；5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。

（一）There were many plants in a forest. When spring came, a pine tree saw a red rose nearby and said, "What a beautiful flower! I wish I were that lovely. "The rose proudly said, "It seems that I am the most beautiful flower in this forest. "Then the rose looked at a cactus (仙人掌) and said, "Look at that ugly plant full of thorns（刺）! ""What a proud flower! " thought the trees.As the days passed. the red rose often looked at the cactus and said bad words about it, like "This plant is useless. How sorry I am to be his neighbor ! "The cactus never got angry and even tried to advise the rose, saying, "God did not create any form of life without a purpose. "Spring passed, and the weather became very hot. As there was no rain, the red rose began to wilt（枯萎）.One day the rose saw birds put their beaks (喙) into the cactus and then fly away. The red rose asked the pine tree what the birds were doing. The pine tree explained that the birds were getting water from the cactus."The cactus has water?" asked the rose.Yes, you can also drink some from it. The birds can bring water to you if you ask the cactus for help. "The red rose felt too ashamed to ask for water from the cactus. But finally it did ask for help. The cactus kindly agreed.The rose learned a lesson and never judged (评价) anyone by their appearance again.31.

From the story, we know___________________.A. the pine tree didn't think the red rose was beautifulB. the red rose never said bad words about othersC. the cactus refused to help the birdsD. the red rose realized she was wrong at last31-35 ACABD（二）Have you tried to run or walk for exercise and then given up? If you answered yes, you should try a new kind of exercise: aquatic (水中的) exercise. Aquatic exercise is like exercise on land, but youdo it in a swimming pool. More and more people are trying aquatic exercise.Aquatic exercise feels easier than exercising on land. Why? You weigh about 90% less inthepool. It is better for your knees than running or walking. Water is about 1, 000 times thicker andheavier than air. To move through the water, your body has to work four times as hard. As a result,you can burn more calories (卡路里).In fact, most people say they feel more relaxed in the water. They stop thinking about the things that make them worried. They feel in control of their bodies. The cool, quiet environment makes themfeel good.But what if you are afraid of the water? No problem! There is nothing to worry about. Aquaticexercise is safe and easy to learn. It doesn't require any special skills. You don't even need to knowhow to swim. Aquatic exercise is for everyone.75. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A.

In which part of a magazine can we read the text?A. Culture.B. Health.C. Nature.D.Travel.CABB（三）Sometimes it seems that time is flying. Perhaps it doesn’t need to feel this way. Our experience of time can be possibly changed. By understanding the psychological(心理学的) processes behind our different experiences of time, we might be able to slow down time a little.One basic law of psychological time is that time seems to slow down when we’re exposed(接触) to new environments and experiences. The law is caused by the relationship between our experience of time and the amount of information our minds process. The more information our minds take in, the slower time seems to pass.It follows, then, that we have different experiences of time in different situations. In some situations, our life is full of new experiences. Our minds process a lot of information and time seems to slow down. In other situations, we have fewer new experiences and the world around us becomes more and more familiar(熟悉的). We become insensitive to our experience, which means we process less information, and time seems to speed up.How can we slow down time? Here are two suggestions.Firstly, since we know that familiarity makes time pass faster, we can expose ourselves to as many new experiences as possible. We can give ourselves new challenges, meet new people, and expose our minds to new information, hobbies and skills. This will increase the amount of information our minds process and expand(增加) our experience of time.Secondly, and perhaps most effectively, we can give our whole attention to an experience-to what we are seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling or hearing. This means living through our senses rather than through our thoughts. For example, on the way home, focus your attention outside of yourself, instead of thinking about the problems you have to deal with. Look at the sky, or at the buildings you pass, traveling among them. This open attitude to your experiences helps take in more information and also has a time-expanding effect.To a certain degree, we can understand and control our experience of time pass ing. It’s possible for us to slow down time by expanding our experience of time.27. According to the writer, we can expand our experience of time by .A. going to bed on timeB. traveling to new placesC. having dinner as usualD. printing the same materials28. What can we learn from the passage?A. Being familiar with the world around helps us get more information.B. Understanding psychological time makes life pass more quickly.C. We can take in more information by living through our senses.D. We should build a stronger relationship between time and us.29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Slow Down TimeB. Only Time Will TellC. Race Against TimeD. Time Will Not Comc Twice答案：27—29 BCA（四）Have you ever heard the phrase “You never get a second chance to make a first impression (印象)?” It may sound like an unusual piece of advice, but it istrue --- the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the firsttime will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in thefuture.What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds. When you meetsomeone for the first time, by the time you have stated you name or shakenhands, the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind ofperson you are.So how do you make a good first impression? All things grown-ups tell you --- such as being polite, and being well-dressed --- are very important.However, the most important tool for making a good first impression is yourface. Smiling, being responsive, and looking like you are happy will almostalways leave a positive ( 积极的) impression on people, especially those whodo not know you. Most people, generally speaking, are ready to smile backwhen they are smiled at.Furthermore, smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know andget a better understanding of new things. This means that you can possibly befriendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solveproblems more quickly. So if you ever need a reason to be happy, think aboutthe wonderful people you might meet --- and impress --- with a cheerful smile.46.What does the underlined word “react” in Paragraph 1 probably mean in Chinese?A.回应B. 道歉C. 报告D. 建议47.Which paragraph shows how soon others form opinions on you?A.

Wearing a smile.49.What can be learned from the last paragraph?A.Friendliness helps solve problems.B.Being positive helps you find a way out.C.There are many reasons to be happy.D.Thinking of great people cheers you up.50.What would be the best title for the text?A.The First Impression Does CountB.Smiling Makes the First ImpressionC.Manners Leave Deep ImpressionsD.Impressions Decide Who You AreC C A A B（五）Recently, a video story has spread among people.James Anthony has cleaned the halls of Hickerson Primary School for 15 years.

2020中考英语冲刺-阅读理解普练(2)及答案
2020英语中考专项练习2020中考英语阅读理解普练（2）及答案Passage A（2019中考教育类选练）Here is a story: A man sees a butterfly(蝴蝶). The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis(蛹). Feeling sorry for it, the man decides to help. He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily. Surprisingly enough, the butterfly is unable to fly. If the butterfly doesn’t struggle(挣扎；奋斗) to leave the chrysalis, it can’t fly! The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly. Similarly, the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make the fly.When people are young, meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life. When we look at successful people, we see that the most successful of them are people who have had to struggle. One famous businessman, who now owns many big supermarkets, used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young. Another successful man is Dennis. His father died when he was only twenty. His father’s death forced him to mature fast. He had to bring up a family of nine people. He took up the challenges and overcame them. Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives.Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them. So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges. They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rock-climbing, camping, volunteer work and so on. However, just passing exams will not prepare a person for life. We must meet and overcome challenges. The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow. For countries to continue to become successful, it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overcome them.1. From the story we know that the butterfly can’t fly because ________.A. it gets out by itselfB. the man feels sorry for itC. it tries to challenge itselfD. the man helps it come out2.
