初中毕业生英语阅读理解专项练习二(含答案)AOne afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting.I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works.A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves.I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk.I admired the husband"s patience for putting up with her continuous talk.Distracted by their noise,I moved on.I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art.Each time I heard her constant burst of words,I moved away quickly.I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a purchase when the couple came near to the exit.Before they left,the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object.He extended it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife"s jacket.“He"s a brave man.”The clerk at the counter said,”Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age.During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldn’t change.So ,as before,he and his wife come in whenever there"s a new art show.”“But what dose he get out of the art?”I asked,“He can"t see.”“Can"t see?You"re wrong.He sees a lot.More than you or I do.”The clerk said,“His wife de scribes each painting so he can see it in his head.”I learned something about patience,courage and love that day.I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life.And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.1.The young couple were at an art museum .A.to show their loveB.to appreciate artC.to discuss paintingsD.to describe paintings2.“…I moved away quickly.”in Paragraph 3 shows that the writer .A.was in the hope of visiting more roomsB.was in a hurry to buy some giftsC.was tired of the nonstop talkingD.was not interested in the art show3.We can infer from the passage that the husband .A.was not born blindB.couldn’t stand his wifeC.knew nothing about artpletely depended on his wife4.After hearing what the clerk had said about the couple,the writer was .A.encouragedB.excitedC.touchedD.annoyed5.The passage is mainly about .A.the importance of artB.good manners in publicC.patience of a husbandD.love between a couple【答案】1-5 BCACDBA small ,white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree and it has been therefor the past ten years or so.It all began because my husband Justin hated Christmas—oh, not the true meaning of Christmas.Overspending was one thing, but compared to the difficult experience of choosing gifts—running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and a pair of gloves for Grandma…,spending money is nothing. I felt too tired to think of any special gifts.Knowing Justin felt the same way, I decided one year not to buy the usual shirts, sweaters, ties and so on. I reached for something special just for Justin. The inspiration came in an unusual way.Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling at the junior level at the school he attended; and shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team sponsored by an inner-city church.These youngsters, dressed in such worn-out shoes that shoe strings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, while our boys were in their blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes.As the match began, I was shocked to see that the other team were wrestling without wearing helmets to protect their ears. Well, our boys ended up defeating them. We took every weight class.Justin, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, “I wish just one of them could have won,” he said. “They have a lot potential, but losing like this could take the heart out of them.” Justin loved kids—all kids, and he knew them, having coached little league football and baseball. That"s when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought different kinds of wrestling helmets and shoes. I sent them to inner-city church without leaving my name.On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Justin what I had done and that was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and since then the envelope has become the highlight of our Christmas.6. Justin hated Christmas because _____.A. he didn’t enjoy receiving giftsB. he had a hard time choosing giftsC. he spent too much money buying giftsD. he disliked putting gifts under the Christmas tree7. We know from the passage that the team sponsored by inner-city church _____.A. were well dressedB. paid no attention to safetyC. feared Kevin"s teamD. couldn’t afford a helmet8. How did Justin feel about the team"s failure ?A. UpsetB. AngryC. HopelessD. Shameful9. Why did the writer send gifts to the inner-city church without leaving her name ?A. To avoid being thankedB. To play a joke on JustinC. To give Justin a surpriseD. To protect her private information10. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. The Church GiftB. A Special NoteC. The White EnvelopeD. A Christmas Card 【答案】6-10 BDACC。

It is different between the north and the south.People from different places have their special taste. For example, in the north part of China, barbeque (烧烤) is the most common night snack, especially in summer, while in the south it changes from spicy crayfish (小龙虾) in Hunan to tasty desserts in Guangdong.Taiwan's night market is very famous. It is a place for eating and shopping. Parents take their children to eat at street stalls. Young people shop around. Old people just sit around and chat.Today, with the popularity of social media (社交媒体) ye xiao is changing in some places. For example, in Hong Kong traditional snacks include red bean soup and mango pudding. But now French pastries(法式小点) and hand­made popsicles(棒冰) are new favorites, according to BBC.But why do people have ye xiao?“Some say that in southern China we have longer days, so we stay awake for longer and have more meals, ” Janice Leung Hayes, a food writer from Hong Kong, told the BBC.But ye xiao is not just about food.

Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan.Things like these are called electronic waste, or e­waste. Dealing with them is not an easy job. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. What is worse, at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they really go in the earth.Many places in China are polluted by e­waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as “the e­waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1. 5 million kilograms of e­waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poisons in e­waste find their way into the environment. An environmental group has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted.Luckily, the Chinese government wants the country to change the situation. This year, China passed a new environmental protection law. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. Hopefully, the problem with e­waste will be solved in the near future.1. The e­waste found in Hong Kong last month was from ________.A. FranceB. JapanC. GermanyD. Australia2.

The bike that the service company provides has GPS or Bluetooth on it, and those bikes can be easily unlocked with a smart phone and left anywhere in public. Bike­sharing allows people to borrow a bike from one place and return it at another place easily.In some cities, we can see more and more people riding this kind of sharing­bikes. It's very convenient to use the bikes if you have a smart phone. First, you have to download such an APP on your smart phone. Then what you need to do is to find a nearest bike through the APP, scan the QR code on the bike or connect your phone with the bike over a Bluetooth wireless connection. You will find the bike can be unlocked itself. Then you can enjoy your trip. What's more, the greatest advantage of bike­sharing is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you need to pay one yuan. It doesn't cost so much, does it?At the same time, some people park the bikes in their own homes. Besides, some people don't value the bikes. Now service companies are trying to solve the problem like being stolen.Technology and science have changed our social lifestyles. We have to say bike­sharing brings us more convenience without doubt. And we also hope that people can not only enjoy it but also put it to good use.1.

However, we have not found life on any other planets yet.The earth is a planet and it goes around the sun. Seven other planets also go around the sun. None of them has an environment with air, so people and living things cannot grow. The sun and its planets are called the solar system(太阳系). The solar system is a small part of our galaxy(星系).Scientists have also discovered many other galaxies in the universe. But they are far away and their light has to travel for many years to reach us. It is hard to understand how large the universe is.So far, scientists have sent lots of spaceships to look at other planets in the solar system, and some spaceships have gone beyond the solar system.

We wanted to do something to make a difference. ”In 2014, When Kaitlin was thirteen, she visited Central America, and saw people going hungry and families living in houses made of cardboard. That year, we set Kids on a Mission, which has helped hundreds of people there.“The rooms were smaller than my bedroom, but there would be eight people living in each one,” Kaitlin said. “We also got to see the dirty rivers that those people were drinking out of.”Providing clean drinking water, food and clothes for people living in poverty is now an important task for Kids on a Mission. “This young lady is changing the hearts of people, and also changing the world,” said the headmaster of Kaitlin's school.1.

In exchange, some kids get allowances(补贴) or other rewards such as extra computer time.But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in__return. “Running any kind of household is a team effort, ” Susie said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and how they are going to keep it looking like what everyone wants it to be. ”Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. There are also new applications that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed (兑取) either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids earn digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real-life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards,” says Chris Bergman, the founder of ChoreMonster. “Kids need positive reinforcement (强化) to help motivate them. ”What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out around their house without getting anything in return?Write a 200­word response. Send it to tfkasks 4 you @timeforkids. com. Your response may be published in a future issue of Time For Kids. Please include your grade and contact information of your parents or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline for responding is February 18.1. How does the author start the passage?A. By presenting some facts.B. By listing some evidence.C. By comparing different views.D.

The purpose of writing the text is to ________.A. invite readers to express their opinionsB. inform readers of two different opinionsC. call on readers to reflect on their behaviorD. present the author's viewpoint about parenting答案:阅读理解(一)1.B 2.C 3.C 4.D 5.A 阅读理解(二)1.A2.C3.D4.C5.

He began to think and tried to find out why the apple fell. Then he discovered how the sun, moon, and stars are kept in their places.A boy named James Watt sat quietly by the fire, watching the lid of the kettle move up and down. He wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the lid. From that time he went on thinking and thinking. And when he became a man, he improved the steam engine(蒸汽机) so much that it could easily do the work of many horses.James Ferguson was a poor boy. Once, seeing the inside of a watch, he wondered. “Why should I not make a watch?” But how could he get the materials to make the mainspring(钟表的主发条)? He soon found he could make it with whalebone(鲸骨). He then made a wooden clock which kept good time. His motto(座右铭) was “I will think of it.” And he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world.Boys and girls, when you have a difficult lesson to learn, don't lose heart, and don't ask someone for help before helping yourselves.

When he wrote his name, I noticed that his fingernailswere clean; instead of having some untidy personal habits.“Don't you call these things letters of recommendation?

If you don't go after(追求) your dreams after you leave school, no one will do it for you.”Jean felt a rush of her old enthusiasm(热情), and with excitement, she told Mrs. Slaton all about her old dreams. The teacher said, “Then do it!”So Jean did. It took her 10 years of hard work.

Make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I found out that about half the things were true.

For the first time I got a clear picture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy, and he said, “Now you know better about yourself.

2016年中考英语话题阅读理解专项练习-饮食与健康(含答案) 2

AHealthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice on healthy eating.Eat with others. It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty—sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.Eat healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals This doesn't mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.Don't eat dinner late. With our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8-10 hours.BYou may not have heard the words "freshman fifteen" before, but they are important for students who are entering university. A freshman is a first-year college student. "Fifteen" means fifteen pounds—the fifteen pounds added to a student's weight in his or her first year. There are a number of reasons why first-year university students gain(获得) weight; but it's encouraging to know thatfreshman don't have to add these harmful(有害的) fifteen pounds.Mistakes choosing foodUniversity kitchens serve many kinds of food. Some students choose unhealthy food, because now their parents are not nearby(在⾝边) to help them choose. Some students visit the kitchen many times while studying. Late at night, some students get harmful fast food such as hamburgers. Students also have less time for walking, running, and doing sports because of their schoolwork. Eating rightIf you're careful, you don't have to add fifteen pounds. Here are some ideas.● Think more about what you eat.● Eat plenty of vegetables and healthy meat.●Don't eat desserts(甜点) full of sugar; have fruit after dinner.●Try not to eat so much junk food (垃圾⾷品) while you study.● It's all right to have a little fast food sometimes—but not often.● Write down the food you eat.● Walk, run, do sports—Move and you will feel better!Remember that the "freshman fifteen" can happen to anyone. Talk to your friends about it. Together, try to eat healthy food and not eat junk food. Walking, running, and playing sports is always more fun with friends. Help each other and you can have a healthy and happy freshman year.CSometimes it may seem difficult to improve our health. If so, the following health habits may help you.Eat breakfast every morning.Research shows that if you eat a meal in the morning you may not become too fat or eat too much during lunch. Eating breakfast can help people feel better through the day.Get enough sleep.Poor sleep can influence our memory and learning. It can also cause traffic accident! Studies show that people who don't get enough sleep seem to get into more accidents. So stay safe and get enough sleep!Take a walk every day.Walking is an easy way to exercise. You'd better meet friends for a walk, not for a meal. As you walk, you will see the beautiful world around you. Once you try, you will find that adding a walk into your daily life is very easy.Join social groups.Social groups can provide support. They might include sport teams, art or music groups. The people in the group can offer advice and can help each other in difficult times. Also, being in a group keeps your mind busy. An active mind is a healthy mind!Have a hobby.A hobby could be running, reading or making something with your hands. Hobbies help people to relax and rest. Hobbies bring us joy as well.DEach of us wants to be in good health, but not all of us know how to stay health.Try to do these:● Remember not to sleep too much or too little. Eight to nine hours every night is just OK.● Drink six to eight glasses of water every day.● Don t forget to eat breakfast. Breakfast is very important to us. Try to eat different kinds of food to get enough vitamins(维⽣素). So we should eat more vegetables and fruit.●Exercise is good for our health. Try to exercise for an hour every day such as running and swimming.● Have a good rest for thirty minutes or more long time hard work. And you may do something different to have a rest.

初三英语阅读理解百战精炼(一)A wallet misplaced during a romantic embrace has been returned to its forgetful owner after 55 years.Two classic car collectors from the US state of Idaho found the wallet after it fell out of the back of a vintage (旧式的)car they were planning to restore.After an Internet search they found and contacted the owner, Glenn Goodlove.Mr.Goodlove said he probably lost the wallet in the back seat of his 1946 Hudson car while kissing a girl when he was home on leave from the US Navy.Jon Beck, 61, and Chuck Merrill, 72, b ought the now-vintage vehicle in Idaho after placing an ad in a local newspaper to buy a classic car in need of restoration.Driving the car home after buying it, the collectors stopped at a restaurant and saw something from below the back seat."Like a couple of kids, we thought we had a goldmine," Mr.Beck said.Instead, they found some small change - the leather wallet held a $10 bill, Mr.Goodlove's military ID, his social security card, his driver's licen ce and several jewellery receipts from 1952.But they were all in the name of Glenn Putnam.After searching online, Mr.Beck discovered that Mr.Putnam had since changed his name to Glenn Goodlove and moved to San Diego, California.He called Mr.Goodlove, asking to speak to a man who used to drive a '46 Hudson."There was a silence for about 15 seconds," Mr.Beck told the Twin Falls Times-News."Then he said, 'Who is that?'" M r.Goodlove, now 75, says he did not even r emember losing the wallet, but the find has brought memories of his youth in Everett, Washington, flooding back."I could see the house and the car and the town and all the good stuff from living there," he said."They've been flowing ever since he talked to me."56.The lost wallet contained all the following EXCEPT ______.A.some money B.some jewelleryC.some receipts D.some cards57.Which of the following happened last?A.The vintage car was purchased.B.An advertisement was placed.C.Mr.Goodlove's name was changed.D.Some personal belongings were found.58.What difference did the wallet make to Glenn?A.He gained unexpected wealth.B.He got back his lost car as well.C.He improved his poor memory a lot.D.He recalled what had long been forgotten.59.The most proper title for the passage is ______.A.A Forgetful Wallet Owner B.Two Car C ollectors and a Good DeedC.Price Paid for Romance D.Lost Wallet Found after 55 Years阅读理解答案:56—59 BDDD初三英语阅读理解百战精炼(二)Writing being largely a self-taught occupation, texts on how to get about it -though great in number- seldom are of much use.You try, and fail.Then try again, and perhaps fail not quite so grievously.Until at last, if you have some gift for it, the failures become less frequent, or at any rate less noticeable.It is this ability to conceal one's defects(瑕疵)that passes, finally, for accomplishment.Along the way there are the discouragements of unkind criticism, outright rejection, nagging insecurity and irregular inability to meet debts.It is uncommon, therefore, to come across a book containing advice of much practical value for anyone toying with the dangerous idea of staring on a writing l ife.A friend recently loaned me such a book, however - one I wish I'd had the luck to read years ago, and which I would commend to any young person bent on making a career of words.It is the autobiography of the English novelist Anthony Trollope, first published in 1883, the year after hi s death.Needing s ome means to support himself, Trollope at age 19 signed on as a junior clerk in the British postal service.He was at his desk at 5:30 each morning to write for three hours.And he remained in the mail service 33 years, long after reputation and prosperity had come to him.Now, what of his advice?1.For safety's sak e, a rm yourself with some other skills, some other line of work to fall back on.That way, failure at writing, though the disappointment may be keen, will not mean utter ruin.2.Do not depend overly much on inspiration.Writing is a craft, which Trollope compared to the craft of shoemaking.The shoemaker who has just turned out one pair of his work sets to work immediately on the next pair.3.Have a story to tell, but, more important t han that, people it with characters who will speak and move as living creatures in the reader's mind.Without memorable characters, story alone is nothing.4.Meet your deadlines.Life is endlessly "painful and troublesome" for writers who can't finish their work on time.5.Do not be inflated by praise.And, above all, do not be crushed by criticism.6.Understand the risks of writing for a living."The career, when successful, is pleasant enough certainly; but when unsuc cessful, it is of all careers the most painful."60.This passage mainly di scusses _____.A.the difficulties and risks of making a career of wordsB.the uselessness of instructions in writing manualsC.the autobiography of the 19th century English novelist Anthony TrollopeD.sound advice provided in a Trollope's autobiography61.From the context we can figure out that the phrase "pass for" in Paragraph 3 means _____.A.focus on B.be regarded as C.be equal to D.lie in62.According to the author, writing _____.A.is basically a self-taught occupation and few instructions are of much practical useB.is a "trial and error" process and it does not count whether you have the gift or notC.for a living is the most pleasant of all careers, full of praise and enjoymentD.sometimes provides good hopes of winning public praise and escaping poverty63.From the passage we may infer that the author is most probably _____.A.an instructor of writing B.a writerC.an educator D.a publisher阅读理解答案:60—63DBAB初三英语阅读理解百战精炼(三)Schools have been blamed for giving kids access to soda in vending machines (自动售货机).B ut new data suggest that school soft drink sales may not be an important factor in how much soda kids drink.In the current issue of The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior, researchers compared soda consumption among nearly 500 students in Maine who attended seven schools over two school years.Four of the schools cut back on soft drink availability at the schools, while three of the schools made no changes.All the students were drinking less soda by the end of the study period, but there were no meaningfu l differences in overall soft drink consumption among the different schools.The data suggest that limiting soft drink availabi lity at school doesn't result in meaningful changes in drink consumption patterns.While there were no changes in overall soda consumption, there was a notable shift in diet soda drinking among girls.If the school cut back on soda availability, girls were less likely to drink diet soda, compared to girls in schools that made no changes.The data are the latest to suggest that schools may not play as big of a role in kids' poor eating habits as widely believed.Last year, The American Journal of Public Health p ublished a provocative (引起争论的)study showing that childhood weight problems often get worse in the summer, when kids are out o f school.Data from kindergarteners and first graders found that body mass index (指数)increased two to three times as fast in summer as during the regular school year.Minority children were especially at risk, as were children who were already overweight.Even children who were too thin and needed to gain weight appeared to have better eating habits during the school year.They actually gained more weight while in school andless in the summer.Even so, much of the focus on childhood nutrition and obesity (肥胖)remains in the nation 's schools.Today, The Times reported that even the school bake sale is disappearing as districts impose strict standards on the food served on school grounds.64.What can be learned from The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior?A.Soft drink remains a problem in schools.B.Girls tend to consume less soda at school.C.Soft drinks may not be to blame for eating problems.D.Vending machines are not available in all schools.65.Better eating habits may be best developed _____ _.A.during summer B.on schooldaysC.with less soda availability D.in attempts for weight-gain66.The writer voices his opinion by ______.A.conducting scientific research B.comparing two journalsC.criticizing wrong beliefs D.referring to ready data67.Which of the following can best summarize the passage?A.Schools are to bl ame for kids' nutrition problems.B.Schools have made changes for a better reputation.C.Kids' po or eating habit has little to do with schools.D.A lot has been done regarding kids' nutrition and obesity.阅读理解答案:64-67CBDC初三英语阅读理解百战精炼(四)KISSI HEALTH-BEAUTY CENTERWith a busy life and job, pres sure can make you look tired and aged.Kissi Health-Beauty Center gives classes, makes training plans

widely used by celebrities or public figures who wish to publish their autobiographies (自传).The degree of involvement of the ghostwriter in nonfiction writing projects ranges from minor to significant.Various sources explain the role of the ghostwriter and how competent (能胜任的)writers can get this kind of work.In some cases, a ghostwriter may be called in just to clean up, edit, and polish a rough draft of an autobiography or a "how-to" book.In other cases, the ghostwriter will write an entire book or article based on information, stories, notes, and an outline, interviews with the celebrity or public figure.The credited authors also indicate to the ghostwriter what type of style, tone, or "voice" they want in the book.Celebrity books are usually ghostwritten in the first perso n (I did this and that)or the third person (David Pardon asked the group to recommend someone etc.).In some cases, such as with some "how-to" books, diet guides, or cookbooks, a book will be entirely written by a ghostwriter, and the celebrity (e.g.a well-known musician or sports star)will be credited as author.Publishing companies use this method to increase the marketability of a book by associating it with a celebrity or well-known figure.In several countries before elections, candidates employ ghostwriters to produce autobiographies for them so as to gain visibility and exposure.Two of John F.Ke nnedy's bo oks were almost entirely ghostwritten.Former President Ronald Reagan also released a ghostwritten autobiography.A consultant or career-switcher may pay to have a book ghostwritten on a topic in their professional area, to establish or enhance their credibility as an "expert" in their field.For example, a su ccessful salesperson hopi ng to become an inspiring speaker on selling may pay a ghostwriter to write a book on sales techniques.Often this type of book is published in the vanity press, which means that the author is paying to have the book published.This type of book is typically given away to potential clients (客户)as a promotional tool, rather than being sold in bookstores.72.A ghostwriter does all the following EXCEPT ______ for his client, according to the passage.A.correct a piece of writing B.write a complete bookC.improve a written article D.interview a celebrity73.By using "this method" (paragraph 3), the writer means ______ .A.celebrities may help to increase salesB.celebrities may shift into ghostwritersC.authors may sometimes become celebr itiesD.celebrities may pay publishers for promotion74.It is implied in the passage that ______.A.vanity presses are illegalB.ghostwriters work behind the sceneC.boo ks by ghostwriters don't sellD.celebrities can't do without ghostwriters75.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about ghostwriters?A.People who employ them.B.Responsibilities they take on.C.Challenges their work involves.D.Reasons why they ghostwrite.阅读理解答案:72-75 DABC中考英语阅读理解练习:Christmas EveChristmas Eve means a warm get-together with friends,a candlelight dinner,or perhaps a celebration at a pub(酒馆)for students.But,for Cai Yingjie,the night has a different meaning:helping beggars(乞丐)and the homeless(people without homes).Cai,who is a student in journalism at Tsinghua,could be found at Beijing's Wudaokou Light Railway Station that special evening. When she saw an old beggar,she took the cold,rough hands of the woman with her warm,clean hands,and gave the woman some warm bread and helped her put on a pair of new gloves(手套).The woman was surprised for a few seconds,then burst into tears,saying "for the first time I feel respected(尊重)".Cai said,"A beggar's life is very hard. That's why I want to help them."Cai was one of 14 Tsinghua students spending Christmas Eve among the poor.They walked in the cold wind along the streets from 4 to 7 pm on Friday,visiting 15 beggars in Beijing's Haidian District.They brought bread and gloves with them,and stopped to greet beggars and offer them some of the warm food.Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise."I know the activity can't help much,but it's meant to show our respect and care for beggars and the homeless who have been neglected for so long,"said Sun,head of the group.“And Christmas is a good time for that.”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。

【人教新目标】2019年中考英语二轮复习专项练习:阅读理解(二)附答案

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。

By the middle 1950s, he had become one of the best-loved and most successful children's book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers. They enjoy the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.In 1954, life magazine published(刊登) a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children's books were not interesting. Doctor Seuss strongly hoped to help children and decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. He used words with the same ending sound, like fish and wish. He did not receive training in art. Yet, he drew the pictures for most of his books.In 1957, Dr. Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat. He used less than 230 words to write the book and even a six-year-old should be able to read it. It was a fun story and easy to read. Children loved it. Their parents loved it, too. Today it is still one of the stories they like best. The success of The Cat in the Hat made him want to write more books for children. In 1960, he wrote a book using less than fifty words. The book is called Green Eggs and Ham.In 1984, Doctor Seuss won a Pulitzer Prize (普利策奖). He was honored for the education and enjoyment his books provided American children and their parents. He died at the age of 87, but his influence remains. Millions of his books have been sold worldwide. People say his books helped change the way American children learned to read. Yet, his books are loved by people of all ages. Doctor Seuss once said, "I do not write for children. I write for people.( )11. Doctor Seuss learned from the magazine that _______.A. some school children could not readB. many children's books were interestingC. children wanted to learn to readD. a writer for children was wanted ( )12. People like his books because the books ______.A. are cheap and easy to getB. were written in different languagesC. are easy and interesting to readD. were written with invented words ( )13. He wrote the book The Cat in the Hat at the age of _____.A. 50B. 53C. 56D. 87( )14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Doctor Seuss wrote Green Eggs and Ham with over 230 words.B. Doctor Seuss wrote books only for children in the United States.C. The Cat in the Hat was written only for six-year-old children.D. His books provided education and enjoyment for Americans.( )15. From the text we know that Doctor Seuss __________.A. won a Pulitzer Prize soon after his deathB. sold millions of his books himself worldwideC. changed American children's way of readingD. wrote the largest number of books in the world阅读理解11—15 ACBDCPassage D飓风Anyone who has experienced a cyclone(飓风) will tell you how scary it can be. High winds and lots of rain can destroy a city in less than an hour. A big cyclone, named cyclone Debbie, hit Australia's east coast at the end of March.The wind was as fast as 236 km/h and destroyed houses, trees, cars and boats. Sea levels rose and flooded coastal towns. While rivers also flooded. Many cities near rivers went underwater.Hundreds of thousands of people had to leave their homes and farms, at least 8 people died, reported Courier Mail. The cyclone lasted for about 3 days. But the flooding was still happening 2 weeks later. Some cities never recover from a cyclone, while it takes years to rebuild.A tropical cyclone begins when a group of thunderstorms meet over warm, tropical waters. Lots of air and water is sucked into clouds from the ocean. Because the earth is rotating, the clouds start to spiral(螺旋式上升). That is why tropical cyclone has curved(使成弧形) shape when you see it on a map. For this reason, tropical cyclone can not form near Equator(赤道) because earth's rotation is not strong enough there. When the wind speed increases to 120 km/h, it changes from a tropical cyclone to a hurricane, typhoon or cyclone.So what is the difference between a cyclone, a hurricane, a typhoon?The answer is actually quite simple.All three are the same. We just use different names for these storms in different places. In the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific Ocean around the US, the term hurricane is used. The same type of storm in the North Pacific Ocean near China is called typhoon. Cyclones occur in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean near Australia.1. When the wind speed increases to ________, it changes from a tropical cyclone toa hurricane.A. 2 km/mB. 3 km/mC. 4 km/sD. 5 km/s2. The underlined word “recover” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________” in Chinese.A. 恢复B. 康复C. 痊愈D. 建造3. Australian hurricanes caused ________.A. many people lost their homeB. trees, cars and boats were destroyedC. sea levels roseD. including A,B and C4. Which of the following is TRUE?A. When the wind speed increases to 125 km/h, it changes from a tropical cyclone to a hurricane.B. A group of thunderstorms meet over cold, tropical waters.C. The earth can rotate.D. Tropical cyclones can be seen near Equator.5. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. A terrible hurricane—Debbie.B. The earth's rotation.C. The formation of cyclone.D. A terrible hurricane and how a hurricane forms. 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。

AAn American friend has invited you to visit his family. You've never been to an American's home before, and you are not sure what to do. Don't worry!When you're the guest,you should make yourself at home. The question of whether or not to bring a gift often gives guests a headache. In American culture, it's not a must do thing to bring. Present. Of course, some people do bring some small gifts like flowers,candies or if the family has small children toys.If you choose not to bring a gift, don't worry. No one will even notice.American hospitality(好客)begins at home.Most Americans agree that good home cooking beats restaurant food any day. When invited for a meal, you might ask."Can I bring anything?" If it's not a potluck, where everyone brings a dish, the host will possibly answer, "No, just yourself.”For most informal dinners, you can just wear comfortable clothes. Remember to arrive on time, or call to tell your hosts that you may be late.During the dinner conversation, it's polite to say the food is nice. After dinner, you can help clear the table or wash the dishes. But you are the guest, your hosts may not let you. Instead, they may invite everyone to move to the living room to drink some tea or coffee. If the hosts are not smokers, you shouldn't smoke in their house. And, above all, don't go around looking at the house if you are not invited. After about an hour of chat, it's time to say good-bye. You don't want to wear out your welcome.( )61.In American culture, it's NOT OK to .A.bring no gifts when visiting an American friendB.smoke in a non-smoker's houseC.bring some candies to the host's kidsD.call to say you may be late( )62.If you are invited to a potluck(家常便饭), you should bring .A.a dishB.some flowersC.a bookD.just yourself( )63. may wear out your welcome.A.Helping wash the dishesB.Drinking tea after dinnerC.

They serve some certain purpose, teach you a lesson or help find out who you are or who you want to become.You never know who these people may be: your classmate, neighbor, teacher, long-lost friend or even a real stranger. But you know that every moment they will influence your life in some serious way.Sometimes things happen to you. At the time they may seem terrible, painful and unfair. But later you realize that without overcoming those difficulties, you would have never realized your further ability and advantages. Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad luck. The people you meet influence your life, and the success and failure you experience create who you are. Even the bad experience can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.Enjoy every day even every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people whom you have never talked to before, and really listen. You should set your goals high, hold your head up, tell yourself you are a great one and believe in yourself. You can make your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.( )51.

Every day tracks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can’t eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system.The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus, which looks like black earth. It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow.( )51.What’s the main idea of the article?A.To let us know taking away rubbish is a big job.B.To explain the need for rubbish collection.C.To introduce different ways to treat rubbish.D.To tell us to take useful things out of rubbish.( )52.We can usually read the article in.A.a science bookB.a story bookC.a history bookD.a tour guide( )53.What’s the meaning of the word “sewage”in the article?A.吸尘B.洗涤C.安全D.排污( )54.The food parts of rubbish can be used again.A.to feed peopleB.to feed plantsC.to build a houseD.for us to eat( )55.How should we do with a used metal box in the passage?A.By throwing it away.B.By putting it in earth.C.By burning it off.D.By reusing and recycling it.DDear mum and dad,I’m writing this letter to you from the center of Australia. At the moment we’re staying near Uluru—that’s the aboriginal(土著) name for Ayers Rock. On the first day, we took a balloon tour over the rock, and I was surprised at how big it was:3.6 kilometers long and 384 meters high. The colors of the rock are fantastic, and at different times of the day, they change from purple to red. The Aborigines are the first people of Australia, and the ancient aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world. Uluru is a center of Aboriginal culture.The Australians have many British relatives. That’s why they’re like us in many ways. Their family life is similar to ours, and they enjoy the same food and hobbies. The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes, lamb, ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country. They love all sports, but football is the most popular. Most Australians live near the coast, so they also love going to the beach, swimming and surfing.Alt hough it’s December, it’s summer over here. The sunshine is very bright, and near the coast the countryside is very green. There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills, but the outback(澳洲内陆) is more like a desert, full of rocks and sand.The next day after we arrived at Uluru, we went on a camel(骆驼) ride. The camel that I rode had a bad temper.When I sat on its back, it became very angry and refused me. So everyone else thought it was very funny that my camel kept lying down…Finally, later th is evening, we’re taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home, it’s been a fantastic trip! Tony( )51.

A Balloon TourB.An Aboriginal LetterC.A Fantastic TripD.A Summer EveningEFive years ago, my mother gave birth to a brother for me when I was 8. I have learned a lot from getting along with him.After he was born,I almost became a babysitter. I had to amuse him after school.I would make faces and sing to him when he was crying. Sometimes I even carried him everywhere in our yard to refresh(散心) him while my parents were busy. What I liked to do best was to feed him when looking after him. How cute he was as he tasted his favorite food!My parents often praised me happily.As an elder brother, you've made contributions to looking after your younger brother. "I have got happiness from sharing.When I was young,I was the only child in my family.I could get what I wanted from my parents and get my parents' whole love. I was a" Little Emperor".But now, as long as I get something good, I will share it with him. I remembered the year when he was three,he was fond of Rubik cubes(魔方)I bought one for him with my lucky money as a birthday present.When he got the toy, he was so happy that he laughed, hugged me and said," Brother, I love you !

He was short and thin. He walked up to the teacher and told her, very seriously, that he was new. His name was Christian. He sat down, took a look at me, and then looked away. I didn’t think he was very nice and I was sure he wasn’t the type I would like to become friends with.During that year, I didn’t talk to him much, but he smiled at me when our eyes met, always shyly. He never ate lunch with anybody, and he never talked to anybody but me.But one day I joined those unkind kids who were making fun of him. We made fun of him though I thought it was wrong.“Haven’t you got any friends?” a kid asked Christian, who had walked past us alone, head down.“No, he hasn’t got any friends. He’s too stupid and shy,”I said. Then Christian looked up at me with the saddest dog eyes I had over seen. I felt very sorry at that moment.That night, I couldn’t sleep because I couldn’t get Christian’s face out of my mind. In the weeksthat followed, he never met my eyes in class and never smiled at me. It was really hard for me to decide to write him a note asking him to forgive me. But I thought I should.The next day in class, I wrote him a note telling him how sorry I felt. About five minutes later, I turned and saw tears in his eyes. “You will never realize wh at your apology(道歉) has meant to me, Jimmly.” he said to me. “I hope we can become friends. ”We had lunch together that noon and we had the best talk I had ever had. Over the years at high school, we were close friends.When I think back, I realize that, if I had not apologized, I would never have known what a lovely person Christian was.Apologies can really change your life, so never miss the chance to tell somebody you are sorry.

Our bodies can't be outside in the sun for a long time. So in hot summers, be careful about playing sportsoutside.Firstly, to play sports safely in hot weather,you must drink water. Sports drinks are great for athletes, but they have so much sugar that they'll dehydrate(使脱水)you more. However, drinking a few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you.Secondly,be sure to take enough breaks to let your body rest. If your coach doesn't let you take enough breaks in the heat, don't wait until you feel uncomfortable. Just be honest with your coach when you need breaks.Thirdly,when you have a break,don't sit in the sun. With the sun beating down on you,you'll only heat up and sweat(冒汗)more. Take a seat under a tree, or even better,go indoors for a little while. Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer.Fourthly,remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise,the cooler it will be. If you can start practice before the sun comes up,you have a few good hours to practise in the cool hours of the morning. Also, the earlier you practise, the earlier you can finish the exercise. If you need more practice time,come back to the field later in the evening,when the sun is setting.Last but not least, you should watch what you eat. Eat food which is high in water,starch(淀粉)and carbohydrate(糖类),but be sure to get a good balance in your diet.As long as you pay attention to the above, playing sports safely in the heat isn't a difficult thing. ( )34.How many pieces of advice are mentioned in the passage?A.ThreeB.FourC.FiveD.Six( )35.From Paragraph 5 we know .A.we'd better start our exercise earlyB.it is not wise to have practice after sunsetC.we have a long time to practise after sunriseD.it doesn't matter whether you practise early or late( )36.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Sports drinks are good for you with no harm.B.You need to tell your coach when you feel tired.C.Sitting under a tree is better than staying indoors.D.Eating lots of sugar is necessary for sports safely.( )37.The passage mainly tells us about .A.eating habits in hot summersB.drinking more water in the heatC.sports safely in hot weatherD.taking exercise in different periodsHI have been a taxi driver for over ten years. It’s a good job most of the time. I meet a lot of people.I always work at night because there is too much traffic during the day. I live twenty miles outside London.I usually go to work at half past five in the afternoon and go back home at 2 in the morning. One night I was taking a woman home from a party. She had her little dog with her. When she got to her house, she found that she had lost her keys. So I waited in the car with the dog while she climbed in through the window.I waited and waited. After half an hour of ringing the bell, I decided to find out what was going on.I tied the dog to a tree and started to climb in through the window. Two policemen happened to be passing by. They thought I was a thief! Luckily the woman came down. She had gone to sleep and forgotten all about me and the dog.( )41.How many years has the man been a taxi driver?A.Five years.B.Ten years.C.More than ten years.D.Less than ten years.( )42.Why didn’t the driver work during the day?A.To make more money.B.To climb into the house.C.Because he was lazy.D.There was too much traffic.( )43.What happened to the woman?A.She lost her way.B.She lost her keys.C.She lost her dog.D.She couldn’t find her husband.( )44.Why didn’t the woman come back for her dog?A.She was afraid of the thief.B.She had no money.C.She had forgotten all about it.D.She didn’t like th e dog.( )45.How long did the driver work every day?A.Eight and half an hours.B.Eight hours.C.Nine hours.D.Eight and half an hour.INow, I’m studying in the US. I find there are some differences between schools in the US and in Vietna m. One big difference is the clothes students wear at school and how they look. In my country, all the students should wear uniforms when they go to school. Boys aren’t allowed to have long hair. Girls aren’t allowed to have long or colored nails(指甲).Another difference is about the rules for parents. In Vietnam, when we begin a new school year, our parents have to go to a meeting in our class. If they don’t go to that meeting, their children won’t have a grade or a report card from school. However, in th e US, there aren’t such strict rules above.In Vietnam, a class is only 45 minutes and we have only five classes each weekday. When the bell rings, the students just sit in their own classroom. They can’t move to a different one, but students can in the US.In Vietnam, students can’t go to work because they can’t find a job if they’re under18. But in the US, many students work after school. This helps them make money. More importantly, this helps them become more independent. They’re able to do things by th emselves in their own way, without asking other people for help.( )46.Where does the writer come from?A.ChinaB. JapanC. AmericaD.Vietnam( )47.What are the girl students allowed to do in the writer’s country?A.To keep their hair long.B.To have long nails.C.To color their hair.D.To color their nails.( )48.What’s the meaning of the underlined word“independent”?A.勇敢的B.独立的C.依赖的D.自信的( )49.Which is not true about the Vietnamese students according to the passage?A.They have five classes a weekday.B.They can go to work under eighteen.C.They should wear uniforms at school.D.When the bell rings, they can’t move to a different classroom.( )50.We can learn that from the passage.A.In the US, students don’t have such strict rules as the Vietnamese students.B.The students in Vietnam can move to a different classroom for classes.C.At the end of a school year, parents in Vietnam have to go to a parents’ meeting.D.In America, all students go to work after school.JDo you want to get home from work knowing you have made a real difference in someone’s life?If yes, don’t care about sex or age!
