中考英语：阅读理解优编题（一）附答案 第一篇 （2019中考科普环保类选练） There are many wetlands in China and some of them have become internationally important wetlands. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are one example. They are in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province. They are the ideal home for many different kinds of birds and animals. The world’s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve is there. More than 700 milu deer live freely there. There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world, but every winter you can see some in the Red-Crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands. The temperature in the wetlands is usually not too high or too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine, too. They are really good places for wildlife. They offer food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds. It is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent floods. But some people want to change the wetlands to make space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife. Luckily, more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife. Every year on February 2nd, the World Wetlands Day, many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands. 1. Which of the following is the ideal home for birds and animals A. The Yellow River.

2019年罗渡中学中考英语：阅读理解优编题（4）附答案第一篇（2019中考教育类选练）Having a teenager at home can be a real headache. Many teenagers smoke, drink and even fight. They often do something dangerous.Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely (可能) to make irrational decisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong? Not really. So what’s the reason?According to Laurence, a teacher from a US university, the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers (同龄人) view them—that is “peer influence”.As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates, and also they care more about what they think of them. This makes teenagers make decisions without thinking about the costs.In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching around them, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they drove more safely.Why do peers have such a big influence on teens’ behavior?As Laurence sees it, a teenager’s brain is like a car with a good accelerator (油门) but a weak brake (刹车). The “accelerator” is fully developed by teenage years while the “brake” is still not fully developed. When teenagers are watched by their peers, they usually push hard on the accelerator. With their weak brake, it is likely that they are going to end up in an accident.But the good news is that a violent (暴力的)teenager doesn’t necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. “They get more self-controlled.”1. What do es the underlined word “irrational” in the 2nd paragraph mean?A. Quick.B.Crazy. C.Careful.2. Why are teenagers likely to make wrong decisions according to the text?A. They like difficult tasks.B. They don’t care about costs.C. They care a lot about what their peers think of them.3. How does Laurence explain the influence of peer pressure on teens’ behavior?A. By comparing it with how a car works.B. By comparing it with an accident.C. By showing research findings.4. What can we learn from the text?A. Teenagers are easy to have traffic accidents.B. Peer influence is bad on teenagers.C. Most of the teenagers become less violent when they grow up.参考答案1B 2C 3A 4C第二篇【****贵阳市一模】DA long time before I was born, my grandma and grandpa moved into the house on Beechwood Avenue. They had a young family of 4 little girls. During that time, it was hard to find a job. So, on weekend grandpa and grandma cleaned the garden to grow some of their own food. They planted tomatoes, beans, cabbages, potatoes and strawberries to feed their growing family. All summer long, the family ate food from the garden.The family grew up, and before too many years had passed, the grandchildren came to visit. Grandma and grandpa still planted their garden every spring. Everyone stillenjoyed the good food from the garden and always took some home.Then grandpa died in one summer when he was eighty-nine years old. It was a lonely winter for grandma. She sat near the window, looking out at the yard and wondering if she could plant the garden in the spring. It would be hard to care for it by herself. When spring came, she planted only a little.One nice day in the early summer, grandma heard a noise in the front yard and looked out the window. There were thousands of bees in the air. Grandma wondered what she could do. She decided to wait and think it over. Before long, she decided the bees won't bother anyone, so she went about her business and didn't give them any other thought.That summer, g randma’s little garden grew and grew. The neighbors all puzzled* why they grew so well. One day, g randma’s brother Frank visited her. Frank said，"In my hometown, the farmers often hired* beekeepers to set up bee houses near their fields. The bees helped them to grow." That was when Grandma realized that her bees had helped with her garden all summer.From that Time on, grandma always believed that since grandpa couldn't be there to help her that summer, he had sent the bees to take his place and make grandma's little garden grow and grow.37. How did the grandparents feed their growing family?A. did whatever jobs he could.B. grow some of their own food in the gardenC. moved into the house on BeechwoodD. making a lot of money38.

Please help me.”There were only a few coins（硬币） in the hat. A man was walking by. He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat .He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could see the new words.Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and ask,“Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?”The man said,“I only wrote th e truth. I said what you said, but in a different way.”What he had written was,“Today is a beautiful day, but I can’t see it.”Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty of the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.The first sign simply said the boy was blind, while the second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind.There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story.The first is: Treasure(珍惜)what you have. Someone else has less. Try your bestto help those who need your help.The second is: Be creative. Think differently. There is always a better way.31.

If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap （代沟）.Don't argue （争辩） with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person.

Wish they could help you more or less.Hold on to your dreams no matter how difficult they are or how “different” they may seem to others. Just do it! The worst thing in life is to look back and say, “I would have ...; I could have ...; I shoul d have...”Make a “Life List” of all those things you want to do such as travelling to places, learning a skill, mastering a language or meeting someone special. Don't say “I'll do it tomorrow”. There is no tomorrow, and there is no “right” time to beg in something except now.Be kind and spare no effort to help people — especially the weak and the poor. Everyone has a special pain, and they need our care and help.Read books, as many as you can. They bring pleasure, knowledge and inspiration (灵感) to you. Always travel, especially when you are young. Don't wait until you have “enough” money or everything is “just right”. That never happens. Get your passport today.Remember not to argue. It never works, and it only hurts both yourselves and others. You should hug people you love. Tell them how much they mean to you now. Don't wait until it's too late.Be grateful. There is an Irish saying, “This is a day in our lives, and it will not come again.” Live every day with this in mind. Yours,Granny （1）What does the underlined phrase “spare no effort” mean?A.

Restaurants and shops were closed down, while supermarkets checked people’s body temperatures. And community workers across the country took strict action, asking people to stay at home and helping the old buy daily necessities.“People in some countries said these measures could cause panic among the public.

The sea ice loss and the Arctic ice melting (融化) caused by climate change have increased much in the last ten years. So they have pushed down the number of polar bears and seals whilepolar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals.According to the data from the WMO, temperatures on the Antarctica (南极洲) just hit 18.3℃, which is higher than the record of 17.59℃ in March, 2015. Moreover, temperatures in this area have warmed about 3℃ over the last 50 years. Although such temperatures might be considered pleasant for a picnic or a hiking trip, this is the Antarctica we are talking about. It is home to the most inhospitable environment on the planet because it is supposed to be an extremely cold place. In fact, the average temperature of the continent’s central area is -57℃.Besides, many places are experiencing the extreme weather this summer. Australia is undergoing its worst drought (干旱) since the 1930s, leaving bushfires burning so long and causing many deaths. Meanwhile in Europe, crops in the northwest are suffering the driest weather in the past 80 years. Recently West Texas in America has also gone through its worst drought in more than 70 years, while floods have hit Eastern and Southern China.“Climate change is bad for us human beings, which causes direct health problems. I’m afraid there will be more common events like the one that 30,000 to 50,000 persons died in Europe in 2003 due to the heat wave there,” Professor Schwartz said. “It will also cause more air pollution, diseases and lack of clean water and so on.”16. What doesn’t bring down the number of polar bears according to this passage?A. Hunting.B. Climate change.C. The sea ice loss.D. The Arctic ice melting.17. What can you get out of this passage?A. The Antarctica is pleasant for a hiking trip.B. Extreme weather led to wildfires burning in Europe.C. Climate change will cause air pollution and diseases.D. The temperatures on the Antarctica hit the highest in March, 2015.18. What does the underlined word “inhospitable" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. comfortable to liveB. friendly to liveC. unhealthy to liveD. unfit to live19. Which place didn’t experienc e drought this year?A Europe. B. Australia. C. America. D. China.20. What is the main idea for this passage?A. The whole planet is drier and drier.B. The Antarctica is warmer and warmer.C. Climate change is getting worse and worse.D. The number of polar bears is smaller and smaller.【答案】16. A 17. C 18. D 19. D 20.

2019年四川中考英语复习阅读理解精练题十三附答案
2019年四川中考英语复习阅读理解精练题十三附答案【实战训练】A（2019中考选练）Are you a good receiver?It might sound like a funny question but it is an important one that each of us should ask ourselves.Strangely,most of us are better givers than receivers.We give to our family,our friends and even charities,and opposite to what we might think,most of us are actually very good at giving. But receiving is another matter.We often feel a little uneasy when receiving,although it is not very noticeable.Even praise gets deflected（转向）when it comes our way.When someone praises us for helping him move or clean up the house,we will possibly say,“Ah,it was nothing.”When someone praises the coat we are wearing,we may mention how we bought it at a discount instead of simply enjoying the praise.Actually,the praise is a gift to us,and when we don’t receive it properly,we are dishonoring the giver.Giving is easy,as there is much pleasure in giving,but receiving is an art that takes practice. To be a good receiver requires a sense of close relationship with the giver.It is always a pleasure for a giver to see the gift received in a pleasant way.And this is also the best way for a receiver to honor the giver and give him something back.Many relationships are not so good not because people are not giving to each other,but because they are not receiving from each other well.We should receive the love,respect the praise,and give thanks every time giving happens.We should practice receiving all the pleasures that happen to us every day,instead of taking them for granted.Think of how many simple everyday gifts we are being given all the time:the beauty of nature,art and inspiring（激励人的）conversations.But are we truly receiving them when they happen to us,or are we busy with other matters,not noticing?We should master the art of receiving:accept the gifts life offers us and show our appreciation for them.We are taught that it is better to give than to receive.But this suggests that there is something wrong with receiving.There is nothing wrong with receiving.It is better to give and receive.Let life shower us with gifts,pleasures,joys,surprises,both large and small,and let us take notice of all these things and accept them happily and thankfully.The more we can receive,the more we can give back,but giving more does not necessarily mean receiving more.We must remember it is harder to receive than to give,and try to practice receiving.This practice will benefit us greatly,making us become good receivers as well as good givers.1.According to Paragraph2,what do we possibly do when we are praised?A.Honor the giver publicly.B.Show our pleasure clearly.C.Receive the praise uncomfortably.D.Express our disagreement properly.2.The expression“taking them for granted”probably means“_______”.A.looking for them with expectationB.depending on them with satisfactionC.getting away from them without regretD.benefiting from them without appreciation3.What can we learn from the passage?A.People usually can receive more by giving more.B.People usually try to receive as much as possible.C.People should give a gift back when receiving one.D.People can improve relationships by receiving well.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.Be a Good Receiver and GiverB.Better to Give Than to ReceiveC.Better to Give,Better to ReceiveD.Be a Receiver Rather Than a Giver参考答案1.C 2.D 3.D4.A【实战训练】BWhen you are learning English,you find it not clever to put an English sentence,word for word,into your own language.Take the sentence“How do you do?”as an example.If you look up each word in the dictionary,one at a time,what is your translation?It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.Languages do not just have different sounds,they are different in many ways.It’s important to master(掌握)the rules(规则)for word order in the study of English,too.If the speaker puts words in a wrong order,the listener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily.Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed,the meaning of the sentence changes,But sometimes the order is changed,the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change.Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.“She only likes apples.”“Only she likes apples.”“I have seen the film already.”“I have already seen the film.”When you are learning English,you must do your best to get the spirit(精神实质)of the language and use it as the English speaker does.1.From the passage we know that_______when we are learning English.A.we shouldn’t put every word into our own languageB.we should look up every word in the dictionaryC.we need to put every word into our own languageD.we must read word by word2.The writer thinks it is_______in learning English.A.difficult to understand different soundsB.possible to remember the word orderC.important to master the rules in different waysD.easy to master the rules for word order3.We can learn from the passage that________.A.the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the order of the wordsB.The order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentenceC.sometimes different order of words has a different meaningD.if the order of words is different,the meaning of the sentence must be different4.“She only likes apples.”________.A.is the same as“Only she likes apples.”B.is different from“Only she likes apples.”C.means“She likes fruit except apples.”D.means“She doesn’t like apples.”5.Which is the best title(标题)for this passage?A.Different Orders,Different MeaningsB.How to Speak EnglishC.How to Put English into Our Own LanguageD.How to Learn English【答案及解析】1. A.从整篇文章我们知道，在学习英语翻译句子时，我们不能逐字逐词译成母语，这样做是不明智的，结果是译成错误的句子。
