Especially, are you an early bird who always wakes up early in the morning, or a night owl （猫头鹰）who almost never goes to bed before midnight?Once you are generally aware of what your sleep characteristics are, you will understand better when your body needs exercise, either early in the morning, sometime during the day, or later on in the evening.Second, consider your daily plan. When do you seem to be most busy, and when do you plan your most important tasks?Try to fit in your exercise before or at least around these events if possible so that you can keep exercising and your life won’t be affected as well.Third, think about when you feel you have the most energy. For most people, that time isrest, or after a long day of work. After a busy or much usually in the morning after a good night’ｓstressful day, exercising can reduce your working stress from hard work.Lastly, find out the place you plan to do exercise. Your house provides exercise at any time if you own fitness equipment, but if there is a gym down the street or along the way home from work,More importantly, you need to make a plan and try sticking to it for one week.

2019年中考真题英语分项汇编（一）【2019 •江西省中考】Everyone faces challenges in their life, but some are more important than others. Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born. And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He started to make clicking(咔塔) sounds with his tongue（舌头）to help him move around. Much like a bat(蝙幅), he now moves about using sonar(声呐). He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic. He and his group, World Access for the Blind, teach others how to use sonar. In this interview with National Geographic, Kish explains how the process works.How does sonar work?＂When I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images(图像). It’s like having a conversation with the environmentWhen you click, what do you see in your mind?"Each click is like a camera flash. I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction.＂What is it like riding a bike using sonar?＂It’s exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus. I click up to two times per second,, much more than I usually do.＂Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way?"Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine. I have a habit of climbing anything and everything, but I never broke a bone(骨头) as a kid.＂How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar?＂Many students are surprised how quickly results come. Seeing isn’t in the eyes, it’ s in the mind.＂1. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Kish explains how sonar works.B. Kish teaches people how to use sonar.C. Kish started to move around using sonar.D. Kish is good at riding a bicycle in traffic.2. How does sonar work? Choose the right order.a. The sound waves reflect off surfaces.b. The person makes a clicking sound.c. The brain makes images with the sounds.d. The sound waves reach the persons ears.A. b-a-c-dB. b-d-a-cC. a-b-d-cD. b-a-d-c3. What can we know about Kish from the passage?A. He always challenges himself bravely.B. He lives in fear of things that he imagines.C. He became blind when he was 14 years old.D. He broke his bone when climbing as a child.4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. How Sonar Works.B. Riding a Bike Using Sonar.C. Seeing with the Mind.D. How the Blind Move Around.【文章大意】文章介绍了Daniel Kish因为严重的眼睛疾病，医生摘除了他的眼球，不久后，他就用舌头发出咔塔声来帮助他走路，就像蝙蝠一样，用声呐来走动，他解释了这个过程是怎么工作的，舌头发出的声音反射回到耳朵，然后大脑加工成图像，就像和环境对话，不是用眼睛看，而是用大脑看。

2019届中考英语阅读理解50篇（含答案）2019届中考英语阅读理解50篇(绝对精品训练题，接近实战考题，值得下载练习)1When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. 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 bu ry 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 o f 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 da ngle 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 ho pe 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 t he rest away.1. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______.A. relaxedB. 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.

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.

There are only a few men in all of history, who havechanged the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased only because someone sa id 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. He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure.Edison could not understand how anyone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. “Work,” he answered, “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.1.According to Thomas Edison, what’s genius?A.Hard thinking.B.Hard work./doc/4d11903132.html,eful dreams./doc/4d11903132.html,eful inventions.2.After exploring the secrets of nature, Edison always tried to .A.write down what he had learntB.carry out a new experimentC.make them useful in lifeD.share them with others3.Edison could not understand .A.how anybody enjoyed lifeB.how anybody loved workingC.why anybody loved thinkingD.why anybody was tired of life4.The last sentence in the passage means that .A.Edison was born to be a great inventorB.Edison was able to live another 100 yearsC.Edison was ready to make his 100 th inventionD.life was too short for Edison to work for human beings答案：BCDD9I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. 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 g ot 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.

On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin(顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, sir?” he asked.Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it did co st you nothing? Sir, I wish…” He hesitated(犹豫).

So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”“I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an opera tion. 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.

Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this ￥100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.Then he said, “I am g oing to give this ￥100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball.

the guest﹣host relationship（关系）in China is much different than in some western countries．It seems that they are not nice guests．And western guests sometimes look rude in the eyes of Chinese guests．In China，guests are almost like gods（上帝）．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（根据）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（直接地），but I must realize that in China，to be a good host，she must not do that．In most North America 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 besurprised if the hosts say，"No，you can't smoke．"In our culture，if you smoke in their home，you are a bad guest，but if they don't 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

山东省德州市乐陵市2019届中考英语复习阅读理解科普环保类(含解析)

科普环保类AThere are an extremely large number of ants worldwide。

Each individual（个体的）ant hardly weighs anything,but put together they weigh roughly the same as all of mankind.They also live nearly everywhere,except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles。

For animals their size，ants have been astonishingly successful,largely due to their wonderful social behavior。

In colonies(群体)that range in size from a few hundred to tens of millions,they organize their lives with a clear division of labor.Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization。

Where we use sound and sight to communicate,ants depend primarily on pheromones（外激素),chemicals sent out by individuals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of their colony.When an ant finds food，it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is.When an individual ant comes under attack or is dying，it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the colony to prepare for a conflict as a defense unit。

2019年中考英语复习阅读理解训练题 (9)

2019年中考英语：阅读理解训练题（8）附答案第一篇（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. Asatellite.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.A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years.B. Every time a satellite gets broken, it is brought back to the Earth to be repaired.C.A broken satellite is never left in space.D. They often crash into each other.参考答案DCBCA第二篇阅读理解****EatingAn important question about eating out is who pays for the meal. If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this,“I’m afraid it’ll have to be someplace cheap, as I have very little money." The other person may say,“O K, I’ll meet you at McDonald’s."This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say,“Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Smith’s," or“I want you to try the Chinese dumplings there. They’re great." This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn’t pay for the meal. You may just say,“Thank you. That would be very nice."American customs（1） about who pays for dates（2） are much the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university（3） girl or a woman in business world will usually pay her way during the day. If a man asks her for a dance outside the working hours, it means “Come, as my guest（4）.” So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning.Notes:（1）custom/`kstm/n. 风俗（2）date/deIt/n.约会（3）university/、ju：nI`v：sItI/n. 大学（4）guest/gest/n. 客人1.The passage tells us .A.how to eat outB.where to eat outC.what to eat outD.who pays for the meal2.If you have little money, .A.you’ll have a cheap mealB.you’ll borrow some from othersC.you’ll ask your friend to pay for your mealD.you won’t want your friends to ask you to dinner3.“Go Dutch" in this passage means .A.去饭馆B.就餐C.订餐D.各自付款4.Sometimes your friend takes you to lunch.

With the invention of radio, television and most recently, the Internet and computer games, it seems that reading books is no longer a popular activity. However, I believe that books are an important part of our lives.Books offer an outstanding wealth of learning and at a cheaper price than taking a course. Books can make people cleverer, because heavy readers have greater knowledge of how things work and who or what people were.Everything in today's society requires reading. Imagine trying to do something assimple as reading the directions on a medicine bottle without good reading skills. Someone could not understand them and become very sick or even die.Even something as simple as walking or driving through the city could become very dangerous without enough reading. Sometimes, you must be able to understand what is written and explain the meaning of them.Some people say that reading is a waste of time and we can do better things with our time. Even if we don't read books, we still read every day, and reading books can strengthen(加强) our abilities. Reading is one of the greatest things we can do in our spare time.With a book, you can travel anywhere you want, do anything you want, and talk to anyone you want. Reading is very important in our lives, no matter your age.

Xue Minxiu, born in 1937, graduated with excellent grades after working hard for 4 years.Going to a university has always been a dream for Xue. But for some reasons, she didn't have the chance when she was young. Even so, she never forgot her dream. In 2014, she was accepted by Tianjin University and finally her dream came true. Since then, Xue has been a model for the people around her. She got up at 5 o'clock every morning. Then she studied for a while before brushing teeth and having breakfast.Her room was filled with books and newspapers. Wherever she went, she would take books with her.In fact, for her age, Xue had many difficulties during the four years. But nothing could stop her. Whenever she had problems, she would either solve them by herself or ask teachers for help. Through her hard work, she passed the exams and was named “a star student” during the first period of her college life.“I think the true meaning of our lives is to challenge(挑战) and improve ourselves whether we are old or young. Xue said at the graduation ceremony.“For me, learning something I enjoy is a lifelong journey. I want to thank Tianjin University for giving me the chance to achieve my dream.

The answer is penicillin(青霉素). It kills germs. By killing germs, it saves lives. Suppose you are sick. You go to a doctor. She examines you. She says you have a “staph” infection(葡萄球菌感染). She gives you some medicine. You take it. The medicine knocks out the staph. Soon you are well. Before penicillin, this would not happen. Staph was almost sure death.Everyone wanted a medicine. Laboratories worked day and night. They grew the staph in small dishes. Then they tried to kill it. Nothing worked.The laboratory dishes had covers on them. They kept things from falling into dishes. Molds(霉菌) were a big worry. They are always in the air. You can't see them.They're too small. There are thousands of different molds. Molds can make an experiment(实验) fail. That's why dishes are covered.Dr. Alexander Fleming was working to kill the staph germ. He worked for years. One day he took a cover off a dish. He looked inside. There was a thick growth of staph germ. There was also some mold. Then he saw something strange. Where the mold was, there was no growth of staph. This is what Fleming probably thought. “Byaccident, I found a mold to kill the dreaded staph.”This is how penicillin was found. But here's the real miracle(奇迹). There are thousands of kinds of molds. But only one kind can kill staph. The mold must have fallen into the dish a few days before. The cover was probably off only a few seconds(秒). In those few seconds the right mold fell into the right dish. Another man might have thrown the dish away. But Fleming was very careful and smart. He understood what the mold did. How lucky the humans were!1．During the experiments to find a medicine for staph infections, ．A．the dishes were not coveredB．staph and mold were put togetherC．mold was kept in small dishesD．staph was grown in small dishes2．The word “dreaded” means “”．A．famous B．scaryC．health D．endangered3．The last paragraph suggests that ．A．accidents happen to everyoneB．the careful person does not have accidentsC．the careless person will miss valuable chancesD．luck is enough when doing scientific experiments4．Most of this passage is written by ．A．telling an unusual storyB．showing the results of experimentsC．offering some reasonsD．giving some advice5．This passage is mainly about ．A．medicine for a staph infectionB．useful accidentsC．Dr. Fleming's researchD．discovering penicillin(六)(2018·江西中考)A young woman turns around and around quickly, and jumps high. In the background, a young girl reads a rejection(拒绝) letter from a ballet school. “You have the wrong body for ballet” it says, “and at thirteen, you are too old.” This was one of the most popular advertisements(广告) of 2014 and it describes American ballet Theater's principal(主要的) dancer Misty Copeland.This was not a real letter. But Copeland says it is very similar to letters from her childhood. While many dancers start at the age of three. Copeland only began to study ballet in 1995 as a thirteen-year-old. People often told her that she was too old, or that she didn't have the perfect body type (She is only 157 cm tall). Her family moved a lot, and it was sometimes difficult for her to attend ballet classes. But Copeland loved dancing and did not want to give up. She stayed with her ballet teacher during the week and spent time with her family only at the weekend. This was a difficult life, but she worked hard and won her first national competition when she was fourteen years old. Copeland joined the American Ballet Theater in 2000 and performed in many ballets over the next few years. In 2007, she became a solo(单独的) performer, and in 2015 she became its principal dancer.Copeland is now a dancer, author and Broadway performer. She also stars in the 2015 film A Ballerina's Tale.

Having a history ofabout 200 years, it is developed from absorbing(吸收) many other dramatic forms, mostly from the local drama…Huiban‟，which was popular in South China during the 18th century. It is a scenic(戏剧的) art integrating music, performance, literature, aria, and face painting.Theatrical art forms in many other countries do not present singing, dancing and spoken parts in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer has no speaking role and does not sing either. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment which includes spoken parts, singing, dancing and acrobatics.In addition to its presence in China, Beijing Opera has spread to many other places.

How much time do you spend buying things? And how much time do you spend organizing these things in your home? In the future，how much time will you spend in movie theaters, at amusement parks, at shopping malls, or at convenience stores? When you add it all up，you will probably see you spend a lot of your life consuming(消费) things.Consuming products is not necessarily bad.However, if we spend too much time doing it, we should look at it carefully.Imagine that you have a week off from school.You don't have to go toclass.However, in this week, you cannot spend any money—no shopping，no movies，no eating out.How would you spend your time? What things would bring you happiness? Perhaps you would take a walk with your best friend.Perhaps you would help a child read.Or you might spend time with your family.When we look back，it is likely that non-consuming experiences like these will be our most important memories.Why? Non-consuming activities are active, not passive.They don't come in a package.You make the experience yourself.For example, each person who reads to a child will have a different experience.The experience changes with the reader, the child, and the book. Similarly, when you have a conversation with a friend，you are actively creating an experience.The conversation that you have with your friend cannot be experienced or recreated by anyone else.However，if you watch a movie with a friend，you will each have apackaged experience.It requires no action and little interaction between the two of you.The environment we live in encourages us to have packaged experiences.We feel that we must consume because we believe that buying is doing.However, we can start a personal revolution(变革) against consumerism.How?

Are you remembering its name, its shape, its color or its size? Are you remembering what it is used for, or the sound it makes when the teacher writes on the blackboard? Scientists say that memory includes different parts of the brain, such as language and the ability of sense.They believe that you begin to create a memory when you notice something with your senses.Then，messages are sent to different brain cells, which join together to form connections. A new connection goes into your short-term memory.It is stored there for about 30 seconds, and then it is either lost or stored in your long-term memory.Having a good memory means making lots of connections and storing them in your long-term memory.To do this, you need to keep your brain in good shape.Eat plenty of brain food such as fish oil, fruit and ughter also makes your brain more active.Also，don't forget to exercise.So do some sports or just move around a lot in the house.Finally, get plenty of sleep.This will make your memories grow stronger.When you want to remember new information, you must pay special e your senses—sight, smell, hearing and touch—and keep repeating the information.To do well in your exams this year，turn off the TV，silence your mobile，and review your work regularly.To remember something special, use your imagination to create visual(视觉的) connections.For example, you need to take a pencil, an eraser, your ID card and chips to your next exam.Imagine the ID card as the body of an animal，the pencil its long neck, and the eraser its head.Your animal。
