长沙市中考英语英语阅读理解专题练习(及答案)一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1．阅读理解That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment (公寓房间), I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining street-light. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the street.Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired any more, and I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the street anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the street next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes."Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.（1）How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick.B. Fortunate and helpful.C. Disappointed and helpless.D. Satisfied and cheerful.（2）From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy _________.A. solving her problem at the bankB. preparing for the first night showC. learning acting in an evening schoolD. taking part in various city activities（3）On her way home the writer __________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her （4）In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.D. She heard someone call her name.（5）From the text, we can infer that the writer _________.A. would stop working at nightB. would give up her job at the bankC. would stay on in San FranciscoD. would make friends with cleaners【答案】（1）C（2）B（3）A（4）D（5）C【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者在忙碌的工作之后感觉十分的失望无奈，只是在她回家的路上她的钱包在不知不觉中丢了，她在回去找钱包的路上遇到了归还钱包的清洁工，这份善良唤回了她对城市的信心。

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”。

江西中考英语英语阅读理解专题练习(含答案)一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1．阅读理解Many cars in advertisements are red, blue or green but almost 75 percent of new cars sold are black, white, silver or grey.A survey shows people prefer the car colors that don't show dirt such as grey. That means the owners can wash their cars less, saving money. Besides, some areas that are short of water do not allow people to wash their cars often.According to another survey, white cars are often sold more than cars of other colors. In China, car buyers say white makes a small car look bigger. Car buyers in other countries also like white. And the research also suggests that there is a lower risk of accidents during the day for white cars compared with darker ones. People also think the temperature inside white cars is lower than that in cars of other colors.At present, every year about 11 percent of cars sold are red and 8 percent are blue. Green has become less popular. In the mid 1990s, green was the most popular color in many places of the world. But today, green cars are hard to find.Sometime in the future, people may not have to choose the color of their car technology may let owners change their car's paint color anytime.（1）You can often see cars in advertisements.A. whiteB. blackC. redD. silver（2）Car buyers choose grey because they .A. can wash their cars lessB. don't need to wash carsC. can pay less money for carsD. don't allow washing cars（3）According to the passage, white cars look than those of other colors.A. saferB. darkerC. cheaperD. bigger（4）Green cars .A. make up 11% of the cars soldB. are hard to find all the timeC. were the most popular in the mid 1990sD. were less popular than blue cars in the past （5）In the future, we can .A. choose cars in all colorsB. paint our cars any color anywhereC. buy cars in all colorsD. change our car's paint color anytime【答案】（1）C（2）A（3）A（4）C（5）D【解析】【分析】大意：本文讲述车的颜色，以及使用某些颜色的原因。

Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet.When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars.His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family.“I wish you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on. The man shook his head.“You are not from this country.” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth and to the children shaking with cold, as if (好像) to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.”Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife.They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time.”When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up.“I have bought no books”, said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemedto be very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.”“My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books for you, more as a prize for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift”“I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family. It was nice for a little boy to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year.”48.
