九年级中考英语阅读理解专练第(一)篇Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey(土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends .Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more?1.

Take famous poet Li Bai for example. His family nam e, which came from his father’s name, was Li. His given name was Bai, and his courtesy name was Taibai.People used their given names when they were among family members. But in social life, they called each other by their courtesy names to show respect. This was mostly done among people of similar age. If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name.Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married.One’s courtesy name often had something to do with one’s given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean “carriage (马车)”. Zhuge Liang’s given name was Liang, which means “bright”. His courtesy name was Kongming, which means “very bright”.1. How many parts are there in people’s names in ancient China?A. three.B. four.C. five.D. six.2.

Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. “I’m also disabled and I want to do something for them with my music,” said Ma.Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the “colorful” music through sound and emotion.Ma’s mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.“After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises,” said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, “As I’ve been practicing so long, it’s hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practicing.”In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the CentralConservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream, though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. “All my hard work has paid off.

Ma’s story tells us __________.A. old habits die hardB. there is no place like homeC. practice makes perfectD. a good friend is like a mirror第(四)篇We know many musical instruments well, such as pianos, violins, drums and so on. What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and itbecame quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying (伴奏) instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally (口头地), there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians (历史学者) usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).1.

The passage mainly talks about ________.A. the forms of folk musicB. the history of the erhuC. the rise of different dynastiesD. the development of Chinese instruments第(五)篇Just a few days after his 18th birthday, Beijing 2022 gold medal winner Su Yiming received a surprise gift—aletter from Xi Jinping, President of the People’s Republic of China.In the letter, Xi expressed his congratulations to Su and other sportsmen in ice and snow sports for their great achievements at the Beijing Winter Olympics, hoping what they had achieved would encourage young Chinese to aim(立目标) high.When Su first stepped onto a snowboard at the age of four, a future as a world-class sportsman seemed to be “a dream too big” for him. Little did he know that he would not only compete for his country but also take home gold. With the great excitement of winning an Olympic gold medal still fresh in his mind, Su wrote a letter to the president, telling him how lucky he felt to have made his dream come true.Su still remembers what Xi wrote in the reply, “The new era is the time for young people to realize their dreams.”“I have always kept those words in my mind,” Su said.“When I made up my mind to be a professional(职业的) snowboarder, I know there is a big gap between my performance(表现) and that of the top sportsmen in the world. But I have been working hard to realize my dream. Now my story shows the fact that hard work will pay off.” Su said.Su believes the sky is the limit. “Find the thing you love, believe in yourself and do your very best. Finally, your dream will come true.”Now Su has his strong wish to win all the competitions in his sporting field.1. What was the surprise gift Su Yiming got after his birthday?A. A letter.B.

Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, and usually far way from cities. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.The National Parks in England are called “England’s Breathing Spaces” because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems too. First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.How can people help? All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.1.According to paragraph 1, what can we learn about the National Parks?A.There are only several national parks in the worldB.

In geographical newspapers第(八)篇During work hours, among the sounds of machines, the kitche n of Bach’s Bakery (面包房) is especially tidy and quiet, not because of any rules against talking during work hours, but because all of the workers have a hearing disability. They are hard-working and professional in their work, and use sign language to communicate with each other from time to time.Bach’s Bakery lies in Changsha City, Hunan Province. It is run by a German couple, Uwe Brutzer and his wife Dorothee Brutzer, who started it up ten years ago with the purpose of creating more jobs for those disabled in the neighborhood. So far, Bach’s Bakery has trained around 30 hearing disabled people. While some skilled workers found jobs in other bakeries and hotels and have been able to live on their own, several of them have stayed to work atthe bakery after they completed the training.The Brutzers’ work has won the support of many people in China. With the spread of news about the bakery, many Internet users learned about Bach’s Bakery and its inspiring story. As a result, many local people in Changsha as well as visitors from other parts of the country come to buy their products, Uwe said that public attention has encouraged them a lot and helped grow the bakery’s business, resulting in workers getting higher pay. However, what he values more is that, through media (媒体) reports, more people have come to understand that disabled people can work as well as other people when they are given chances.Now, as they are preparing to return to Germany, they have found a German couple teaching in China as the new managers, and handed over the bakery to a public welfare (福利) organization. Their wish is to continue providing free training for the hearing disabled and that the bakery will never be changed into a shop with moneymaking as its main goal.1.

What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Silent BakeryB. A Special WishC. The Success of the DisabledD. The Rules of Bach’s Bakery第(九)篇Scientists are looking for ways that we can effectively use the light and heat from the sun. One idea that has caught their imagination is solar roads. They are expected to produce clean and renewable energy.With solar panels on the surfaces, solar roads cost more than traditional roads. However, besides the functions of traditional roods, they have the panels to receive sunlight and change it into the energy to supply power to homes, factories and street lighting. There are four layers in a solar panel:•Base layer: It is made of insulation material and forms a good grip with the road below this layer.•Middle layer: This is the most important layer. It holds all kinds of power lines connecting all the solar parts in the panel, like LED lights and the heating system.•Top layer: This layer is super-strong glass. It allows the panel to hold the weight of the heaviest vehicles.•Capping: This is the topmost layer used to offer extra protection to the solar parts in the panel. The layer must be rough enough to provide the traction for the safety of vehicles.With the smart design, solar roads can successfully charge the vehicles on them. And the roads have inbuilt LED lights to replace the traditional rood signs and lines, which are usually painted and harmful to humans. What’s more, the heating systems in the solar roads can take care of the snow and ice on the roads for drivers.Test solar roads have been built in several countries (France, China, USA, etc.) since 2014. The first word solar road project, Metrics of Watt Way in France, was set up by a French company called Construction Colas. It was an example of low effectiveness. In the first year, it had been expected to produce around 767 kWh of energy a day, but it only produced 409 kWh. Even so, the production could increase with design improvements. Of course, more time is needed before this technology is put into use.Solar roads may not be widely used in the near future, but they are indeed great for an environment-friendly and energy-saving world.1. Solar roads ________.A. offer power to homesB. get energy from factoriesC. keep the sunlight awayD. cost less than traditional roods2. Which of the following about the layers of a solar panel is TRUE according to the passage?A. The base layer is the most important layer.B. There are many power lines in the middle layer.C. The top layer lies on the top of the solar panel.D. The capping should be smooth enough for drivers.3. The first world solar road project ________.A. was set up in China in 2014B. showed high effectiveness as expectedC. was started by a US companyD. could get better with design improvements4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Solar Roads: A Widely Used InventionB. Solar Roads: A Safety Guard for DriversC. Solar Roads: A New Idea for Clean EnergyD. Solar Roads: A Way to Produce LED Lights5. Which part of newspaper may you read this passage?A. HistoryB. FashionC. SportD. Environment第(十)篇Steven Spielberg is the world’s most famous director. Hundreds of millions of people around the world have seen his films like Firelight, Amblin’ and The Color Purple. His films include two of the most popular films: Jurassic Park and E.T: The Extraterrestrial.Each of Steven’s parents had a deep influence on the young boy’s growing and character.

Steven enjoyed this exciting circus (马戏团) story, however he could not understand how a circus could perform on a screen.

Steven’s father handed Steven the camera and asked him to try. The first efforts were terrible, but Steven was interested in camera. He used his toys as characters and began making short films. By his teens Steven had made his first short film, called The Great TrainCrash. Before long the Spielberg house began to look like a film set, with furniture and lights being moved around to prepare for a new film.He is skilled in making a film excite, sadden or amuse people as they watch it. Spielberg understands the life in the countryside, television and fast cars, all of which became more common in his childhood in 1950s America.

2021年人教版中考英语10篇 阅读理解训练题(一)

10道中考阅读理解训练题第一篇:Swimming and English LearningCan you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I’m afraid you’ll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It’s the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn’t matter. Just be relaxed, try to catch every word.Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He’s afraid of making mistakes. You know we so metimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don’t be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important when there’s nobody to t alk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It’s interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we’re interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don’t be afraid of failu re. Failure is the mother of success.Easier said than done. Well, let’s do more practice from now on. I’m sure you’ll learn English well in this way.(1) You can learn to swim by_______.A. reading books about it.B. looking at others swimmingC. having lessons on it.D. going into the river and learning(2) We should learn English by _______.A. listening and speakingB. reading and writingC.

初中英语阅读理解训练及参考答案(通用9篇)

初中英语阅读理解训练及参考答案(通用9篇)中考英语阅读理解及解析篇一Advertisers Perform a Useful Service to the CommunityAdvertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a flair for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. ‘It’s iniquitous,’ they say, ‘that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who pays…’The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods derives largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or a newspaper full of the daily ration of calamities.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not subsist without this source of revenue. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn’t forget is the ‘small ads.’ which are in virtually every newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the ‘hatch, match and dispatch’ column but by far the most fascinating section is the personal or ‘agony’ column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for advertising there is!1. What is main idea of this passage?A. Advertisement.B. The benefits of advertisement.C. Advertisers perform a useful service to communities.D. The costs of advertisement.2. The attitude of the author toward advertisers isA. appreciative.B. trustworthy.C. critical.D. dissatisfactory.3. Why do the critics criticize advertisers?A. Because advertisers often brag.B. Because critics think advertisement is a “waste of money”。

Several Asian hospitals are doing experiments with tele-medicine. Tele-medicine is a technology that allows doctors to "see" patients without them being in the same place. This is made possible through high-speed communication networks (网络).At both ends of the line, theway of video-meeting lets them see and talk to each other. Blood pressure (血压) and body temperature are directly shown on computers.Tele-medicine is already in wide use in some places such as the United States andGermany. Among other uses, village doctors hold "consultations ( 会诊 )" with far-away experts (专家) . The experts can also help them during operations.Tele-medicine has been slow to reach Asia because of high costs, besides other reasons. When things improve, this technology will develop very fast. Chinese University of Hong Kong's medical school has joined a big hospital in Beijing, and Thailand is building a tele-medicine station connecting 20 areas.Tele-medicine will do good to patients because doctors from different places can see them and give their medical advice. The help is quite important if the disease is an unusual one. It also helps spread medical knowledge among experts.As tele-medicine develops well, its costs will be lower and it will become very popular in the medical field.77完成句子;78—79 题简略回答问题;80 题将稳中划线句子译为汉语。

She taught me to read and write when I was young and helped me to be interested in stories and poems.In my mind, my grandmother was a great tailor.

For me, it is more than twenty dollars per hour.Like other eighteen-year-old girls, I chose to work in a clothing shop. On the first day, I was trained to fold and organize platform after platform of clothes. The work didn’t seem easy to me because everything had to be done in an accurate way. I felt a little impatient because I couldn’t get it right the first couple of times. The manager told me not to be impatient and taught me skills on how to finish the work well. After hundreds of tries, I had the clothes folded perfectly. Then it took me thirty minutes to get them all looking uniform. Now, I fold and organize clothes in the shop every day, and I am able to do them well. Through this experience, I’ve learned patience can help me in the work.Helping customers and connecting with them are the things I love most in the shop. About three weeks ago, I helped an old lady who was looking for a special dress. She told me exactly what she was picturing—a blue dress with long sleeves and a lace neck. We didn’t have any such dress, and when I explained that to her, she wasn’t very happy. Instead of getting impatient, I tried getting to learn about her interest first. We shared our love of the fashion show. I also asked her what the dress was for, so I could help her get the clothes she liked. Everything I did worked. She found other items she liked and finally bought some new blouses and jeans worth of $300. This experience has taught me how to meet customers’ needs.I’ve experienced frustrations and challenges in the work. To do well, I must learn to deal with them. The work experience changed me a lot and helped me in other aspects of my life as well.1.How old was the writer when she worked in a clothing shop?____________________________________________2.Why did the writer think the work was difficult?____________________________________________3.Who gave the writer a hand and taught her how to finish the work well?____________________________________________4.What was the old lady looking for at first?____________________________________________5.How did the writer manage to meet the customers’ needs in Paragraph 3?____________________________________________6.According to the writer, what changes could help her in other aspects of her life?(No more than 15 words)____________________________________________(2022·上海崇明·模拟预测)Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答问题)“I’m Captain Carter Harrison. I’m here to visit Mrs. Melissa Harrison,”said Mr. Harrison to the front desk. “Oh, Melissa has been asking about you all week. She is looking forward to seeing you. Here is your visitor ID,” the receptionist said. “She is in Room 3417.”The young man came to the door and slowly opened it. Inside, an elderly woman lying in bed slowly opened her eyes. “Daddy,” she said quietly.“Oh! Melissa has aged so much since I last saw her a few months ago!” Harrison thought to himself. Of course, a few months’ ship time means that years have passed on Earth.“How was your trip, Daddy? Did you bring me back anything?” Melissa asked. She welcomed him home excitedly – just like a little girl. “Sure. Look at these – a coin from Planet 8 and a diamond from Planet 173.” She smiled and nodded (点头示意) towards her shelf. Hundreds of small stones and statues lay across its top. He placed the objects with the rest of her collections.Melissa was sleeping now. Harrison pulled a chair up to her bedside. Warm tears filled his eyes. “I am sorry, Melissa,” he said softly, “Your grandparents brought you up to be a perfect young woman, but I missed your first steps. I was asked to work as a captain for only two years. However, we had lost so many men in the First Space War. I couldn’t just leave my soldiers. I must help protect our planet.”Harrison held her hand in silence for a long time. He knew this was possible the last time he would see his daughter alive. It would be five years’ Earth time before he came back from space again.There would be another 30 years before he retired, Harrison thought. He would lose hundreds of years of Earth time. And each time he returned, he would learn that his loved ones had died and new ones had been born.Harrison thought for a moment and wrote her daughter a note. It said, “ 6 ”. Then he kissed her and quietly left the room.Outside, he caught an air taxi. He took a deep breath and climbed into his taxi.7.The elderly woman was Captain Carter Harrison’s mother, wasn’t she?___________________________________________________________8.What did Harrison bring back to Melissa?___________________________________________________________9.Who took care of Melissa when she was a little girl?___________________________________________________________10.What did Harrison do during the time he was asked to work as a captain?___________________________________________________________11.How soon would Harrison come back to the Earth again?___________________________________________________________12.Harrison wrote her daughter a note before he left.

The author is Bill Bryson. Bryson returned to the US after 20 years in Britain and decided to get familiar with his native country by walking the Appalachian Trail(阿巴拉契亚山道).The trail, about 3,500 kilometers long, is popular with thousands of hikers. It goes from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mountain Katahdin in Maine. The story offers a landscape of silent forests and beautiful lakes. But as a writer with comic genius, Bryson also finds humor in the struggles that he and his old friend, Stephen Katz, went through.Lots of silly things happen along the way. At the beginning, Bryson reads about the dangers of the wild and stays awake for hours each night, because he is worried he will be killed by bears. Later the two middle-aged men try to climb a mountain but get caught in a snow-storm. They get lost more than once, but they always manage to find their way back to the trail. They also meet a lot of strange people.But the story is more than just a laugh-out-loud hike. Bryson also talks about acid rain(酸雨), the hunting ofbirds, and damage to the ecosystem(生态系统). It’s a mix of the silly and the serious, a fresh way of getting readers to actually care about the environment problems. As the website Book Browse said in a review, the book “will certainly become a modern classic of travel literature”.13.Bill Bryson comes from Britain, doesn’t he?______________________________________14.How long is the Appalachian Trail?______________________________________15.Why does Bryson stay awake for hours each night during his life on the trail?______________________________________16.What happens to Bryson and his friend when they try to climb a mountain?______________________________________17.What is the implied(隐含的)meaning of the underlined sentence?The book not only __________________, but also __________________.18.Please give a proper title for the passage.

So some people hope that their bodies can be frozen after they die. When a cure is found, warm up his or her body, bring it back to life and take the cure. Once the body is frozen, it is kept in liquid nitrogen(液态氮) at a temperature of 328 degrees below zero.Now around a thousand people are going to take cryogenic treatment(处理), though most scientists say it won’t work.

The factory owner could beat a child who fell asleep or was not fast enough. Both parents and teachers could do the same.Today, there are many laws about children all over the world. Some people think children must obey rules or they should be punished,others do not agree. The Inuits or Eskimos in Alaska almost never punish their children. The parents don’t hit the m. If the children go too far,the parents punish them by making fun of them.Children in other parts of the world are not as lucky as Eskimo children.

In contrast(对比), it is against the law for anyone to hit a child in Sweden. Swedish parents cannot spank their children. The children also have a special government official who works for their rights. There is even a plan for children to divorce from their parents though this is not a law yet!根据短文内容回答下列各问题。
