Passage 1(2018福州) Once upon a time, a hippo(河马) lived in a river next to a big tree. One day, a bird came and nested(筑巢) in the tree. The songs of the bird filled the hippo with so much envy(羡慕) that he couldn't think of anything else. Every day he would think why he wasn't born to be a bird even though the bird told him many times he was so lucky to be so big and such a good swimmer. Finally, the hippo made up his mind that he would come out of the river, climb the tree, and start singing. However, when he tried to climb the tree, it was very clear that the hippo didn't have wings, nor claws to climb with. Realizing that he would never climb up the tree, he angrily hit the tree until it came crashing to the ground. Then he stepped onto the leaves of the fallen tree, and began singing. Unfortunately, hippos can't sing, either. All that came from his mouth were terrible noises, and when the other animals heard this, they all came around to make fun of the hippo. He was so ashamed by this. He also felt bad about having knocked the tree over. He used all his strength to raise the tree back up again, and look after it until it completely recovered(康复). ( )1. The hippo envied the bird because ________. A. he could fly high B. he could build a nest C. he could sing well D. he could live in the tree ( )2. After reading this passage, we know ________. A. the writer is telling us a true story 2
B. the story happened on an autumn day C. the bird thought he was luckier than the hippo D. the hippo tried to do something against his nature ( )3. The hippo in this story ________. A. was happy all the time B. did not respect his friends C. liked to talk a lot but did nothing D. corrected his mistake when he realized it ( )4. From the passage, we can infer(推断) that the hippo would ________ after such an experience. A. be a good singer B. be good at climbing trees C. stop envying the bird D. not make friends with other animals ( )5. The best title of this passage may be “________”. A. The hippo that wished to sing B. The tree that was knocked over C. The bird that wished to swim D. The animals that were in high spirits Passage 2(2018泉州)
There were three big fish in the lake. One of them, Demo, was wise; another one, Jimmy, was half-wise; Martin, the third one, was stupid. Some fishermen came to the bank of the lake with their nets. The three fish saw them. Demo decided at once to leave, to make the long and difficult trip to the ocean. He thought, “I won't discuss with these two about this. They love this place so much 3
that they call it home and will stay on. How silly they are! They still haven't realized we are in great danger now. Their ignorance will cost them their lives.” Seeing the wise fish had left, Jimmy thought,“My guide has gone and now I've lost my chance to escape.” He felt sorry for it and then thought, “What can I do to save myself from these men and their nets? Perhaps I should pretend(假装) to be already dead, giving myself totally to the water.” So he did that. He went up and down with the water, helpless, within arm's reach of the fishermen. “Look at this! The best and biggest fish is dead.” One of the men lifted him by the tail, and threw him up on the ground. He rolled(滚动) over and over and moved secretly toward the water, and then, back in. The third fish was aimlessly jumping about, trying to escape with his speed and cleverness. The net, of course, finally closed around him, and as he lay in the hot frying-pan bed, he thought, “If I get out of this, I'll never live again in the limits of the lake. Next time, the ocean! I'll make it my home.” ( )1. The passage is a ________. A. diary B. story C. notice ( )2. The underlined word “ignorance” in the passage means “________” in Chinese. A. 冲动 B. 勇气 C. 愚昧 ( )3. Jimmy thought that he could escape from the fishermen by ________. A. traveling to the ocean B. pretending to be dead C. jumping here and there ( )4. Who was caught by the fishermen at last? A. Demo. B. Jimmy. C. Martin. ( )5. What can we learn from the passage? A. It is important to make proper changes in time. B. Good chances are always given to the honest. C.

2019年中考真题英语分项汇编(一)【2019 •江西省中考】Everyone faces challenges in their life, but some are more important than others. Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born. And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He started to make clicking(咔塔) sounds with his tongue(舌头)to help him move around. Much like a bat(蝙幅), he now moves about using sonar(声呐). He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic. He and his group, World Access for the Blind, teach others how to use sonar. In this interview with National Geographic, Kish explains how the process works.How does sonar work?"When I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images(图像). It’s like having a conversation with the environmentWhen you click, what do you see in your mind?"Each click is like a camera flash. I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction."What is it like riding a bike using sonar?"It’s exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus. I click up to two times per second,, much more than I usually do."Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way?"Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine. I have a habit of climbing anything and everything, but I never broke a bone(骨头) as a kid."How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar?"Many students are surprised how quickly results come.

Smiles from the“nameless”people have changed my thoughts. The first time on the bus,I saw different faces,we met, greeted and cold faces turned into smiling faces. As days went on, we chatted like old friends. But I felt it a pity that I was unable to set up the same friendship with a silent girl on the bus.Her old clothing suggested that she didn't have much money,but she always took a cup of water for the driver.I guessed she was a kind girl.But why did she sit in silence instead of talking with us? Couldn't she smile? Then, one evening, I got the answer.I walked to the park nearby and found the girl sitting alone under a tree,lonely and sad.I greeted her with the same warm smile that I had shown to her all these months,but this time her face turned red with a shy smile. As soon as she began her first words, I understood why she hadn't spoken to us before.Talking was hard for her. can't I learned her story: Her parents worked hard somewhere.She lived with her disabled grandparents.She said,“I express(表达) myself very well.Most of the time,I can't say what I want to say.

This year, Georgina had a new plan.She started with her brother.He liked UFOs, so she wrapped his gifts in aluminum foil(铝箔纸) to make them shiny.They looked really nice reflecting the lights of the Christmas tree. For her perfect sister, Jeannette, it would be hard to make things perfect enough, because she was very picky.To make fun of this, all of her gifts were wrapped in pink and red paper, and small mirrors hung from the gifts, so she could see herself when she was opening her gifts.It was a fun idea. Dad loves reading humorous stories in newspapers, so Georgina bought some newspapers and covered his gifts with funny stories.He would surely laugh as he opened his gifts. Mom was so hard-working but managed to present herself at her best.It was hard to figure out her gift-wrapping.Finally, Georgina decided to wrap the gifts up in an apron(围裙). She was done, and she couldn't wait to see their reactions(反应)!

C.It wasn't cut cleanly and looked ugly. D.It was less wonderful than the gifts inside. C For as long as I can remember, I've always looked up to my elder brother.No matter how old I am, I've always seen myself copying every small thing that he does.I play the video games that he plays, I copy his hairstyle, and I eat the type of food that he eats. My brother is like a superhero in my eyes.He was a straight A student at high school as well as the captain of the school soccer team.It's been difficult trying to live up to the expectations that were set by my brother, but whether consciously(有意识 地) or not, I'll always try to be like him.He motivates(激发) me like a rabbit motivates a wolf.The wolf's goal is food, while

You?re different from the others!If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. By the time the itching begins, and she has flown away.And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She just wants to find a place to have a good rest.

Think about all the water faucets (水龙头) in the toilet. Think about all the air conditioning in summer. Saving energy is a hot topic for such a big place!Many things at the mall use energy. Electric lights, infrared(红外感应) faucets andair-conditioners need electricity to work.One way to save energy is by keeping lights clean. More and more dust and dirt make the lights less bright. When malls keep lights clean, they can use fewer lights and keep the area just as bright. Using fewer lights means using less energy.You step up to the water faucet. The water starts to flow.

I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive(原谅) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn?t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only kn ew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told, as she?d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose.

He will never be able to run and play with you like the other dogs would."The boy rolled up(卷起)one leg of his trousers and showed a steel leg.

Most of his shows had some educational messages. He taught lessons about health, history and some other important things about life through his magic tricks. Both parents and childre n enjoyed his magic shows, the children mainly for the fun and the parents mainly for the education.My aunt went to our home and gave us two tickets for one of his shows last week. I watched the show with my mother last Wednesday. I had seen this magician's show on TV one year ago. But it was the first time I had seen alive (现场演出的) show, so I was very excited. The show tau ght children not to steal by describing how a person might feel when his or her thing was stolen. In the show, there was a monkey who liked eating bananas. He often stole things and never cared about the owners' feelings. Then one day he found his own things were stolen. He was worried and angry. From that experience, he realized how worried and angry others would be when their things were lost. From then on he decided to stop stealing.The show was great. It made me understand why we shouldn't take what didn't belong to us. I also learned that we shouldn't get happiness from hurting others. I recommended(推荐) it to some of my friends. They watched the show last night. I thought that they could learn something from it while enjoying the wonderful magic.( )9.

The magician would leave the city soon.B. The writer's mother didn't like the show.C. The writer $ friends were not interested in the show.D. The writer thought the show was very interesting.DIn 1982, Steven Callahan was crossing the Atlantic alone in his boat when it hit something and sank. He got into a life boat and was lost at sea. His supplies (供给) were few. His chances were small. Yet when three fishermen found him seventy-six days later, he was alive. He was much thinner than he was when he started, but alive. His story of how he survived (生存)is fascinating. His cleverness—how he managed to catch fish, how he changed seawater into drinking water一is interesting.But the thing that caught my eye was how he managed to keep himself going when all hope seemed lost. He was So hungry and tired. Giving up would have seemed the only choice. When people survive these kinds of situations, they do something with their minds that gives them the courage to keep going. Many people in similar situations give up or go mad.“I tell myself I can deal with it," wrote Callahan in his story. "Compared to what others have b een through, I'm lucky. I tell myself these things over an d over, building up my courage...”It struck me as something important And I've told myself the same thing when my own goals seemed far away.

2019年中考英语阅读理解复习训练及答案
2019年中考英语阅读理实战模拟练习(名师精选试题+实战专题练习,值得下载练习)【实战训练】 A(2019中考教育类选练)Do you consider failure as an ending? Do you often feel after a failure that you aregood for nothing? Then be careful, you are one of them who have bad relationship with failure. And this is the only reason why people often keep themselves away from their success. The power of failure is that it helps us to learn fro our mistakes and misstepsand we must consider a failure as an opportunity to grow rather than giving up.Let's discover the reasons why successful people believe that opportunity lies inevery failure.Disappointment or failure shows that you are tryingThe best way to gauge(衡量)your progress at something is to see how many timesyou failed. In case you haven't failed yet, chances are that you haven't tried hard yet.Look at all successful men and women throughout our history, they all had onething in common. That's to say they failed not once but several times before theyachieved success. Let's take an example of Thomas Edison: he failed a lot of times tofind right filament(灯丝)for his light bulb. Henry Ford had a stronger relationship withfailure, which inspired him to quote this unforgettable saying “failure is the opportunity to begin again, more intelligently.”Achievement lies in looking at failure as an opportunityJust like every successful person had one thing in common, similarly allunsuccessful persons throughout our history had one thing in common --- their inabilityto use failure as an opportunity and a tool. If you feel your one failure is your ultimate(终极的)failure, and that feeling of sinking down is known as an ultimate failure, youare pushing yourself away from your expected success. Achievement is all about findingout what mistakes you made, what is the main cause of that failure, and how you aregoing to make up for it.Success requires willpower, passion, hard work, intelligence, determination, but all of the above, success requires failure. Use your failure as an opportunity to learn, to become wiser and to reconsider your relationship with failure, the true key to success.1. According to the writer, why do people keep themselves away from their success?A. Because they don't set long-term goals.B. Because they haven't got enough time.C. Because they can't deal with failure properly.D. Because they are disappointed in themselves.2. Why does the writer take the example of Thomas Edison?A. To explain the reasons for failure.B. To prove the importance of failure.C. To take pride in Thomas Edison.D. To introduce the process of making a light bulb.3. What can you learn from the passage?A. Failure can build up your confidence.B. Successful people seldom failed.C. Failure is more important than success.D. Successful people use failure as a tool.参考答案1. C 2. B 3.

The conclusion is from a new study by Japanese researchers.The study showed that compared with people who gobbled their food, those who ate at a normal speed were 29 percent less likely to be obese(肥胖的). But those who ate slowly were up to 42 percent less likely to be obese. In addition, slow eaters tended(往往会) to be healthier and to have a healthier lifestyle than those who ate quickly or at a normal speed.“However, this study could not prove that eating speed causes or stops obesity,” the researchers noted. They we Dr. Haruhisa Fukuda from Japan.“Slow eating has its advantages a nd a few disadvantages, said Samantha Heller from New York City. “On the one hand, slow eating gives our bodies time to register a sense of satisfaction and fullness, so we eat less. We are more likely to enjoy the taste of food. On the other hand, the longer somepeople sit in front of food, the more food they will eat,“Speed eating appears to be far more harmful. People who eat quickly, as many of us do, gulp far more food than they need. In many European countries, slow eating is a way of life,” Helle said. “In America, speed eating takes the lead. Thus, we need encourage people to have a change, learn the way of slower eating from Europeans and get a true enjoyment of food.1.

Americans throw away about 1 ton of rubbish per person every year.That's 2000 pounds of rubbish! Most of the rubbish gets covered in big holes in the round called landfills(垃圾掩埋法).A lot of this rubbish can be recycled,or turned back to something useful.The main things we recycle today are made of metal and paper.People recycle for many reasons.One of the main reasons is to protect resources(资源).Making new cans out of old ones means less aluminum(铝) is needed for new cans.This leads to a second reason people recycle:it saves energy.Recycling old aluminum ca ns take much less energy than making new aluminum.To make new aluminum,you need to mine metal ore(矿石) from the ground,remove it,and refine it,into a finished metal.Recycling also protects valuable land.By recycling,we produce less rubbish.That means fewer landfills are needed for dropping our rubbish.Because metals are some what costly to make,they are the world's most recycled materials.About two-thirds of all steel(钢) is recycled.Almost all drink cans are made of aluminum.Americans recycle about one-third of their used aluminum cans.Empty cans are sent to special factories.There,they are cleaned,melted,and made into new pieces of aluminum.Americans use lots of paper — mostly in the form of newspapers,magazines,and cardboard boxes.In fact,paper takes up more space in landfills than any other material.Old paper can be cut and made are into new paper.Americans recycle a little more than one-third of their paper rubbish.New papers are made from trees,each ton of recycled paper saves about 17 trees!1.

Our dreams often include all the senses—smells, sounds, sights, tastes and things we touch.Early in the twentieth century, two famous scientists developed their personal ideas about dreams. Austrian psychiatrist(奥地利心理学家) Sigmund Freud believedpeople often dream about things they want but can’t have. Swiss(瑞士) psychiatrist Carl Jung worked closely with Freud for several years, but he believed dreams provide solutions to problems we face when we are awake.Other researchers are studying how dreaming helps our bodies work with problems and very sad emotions(感情). Robert Stickgold is a professor of psychiatry (心理学教授). He says that when we dream, the brain is trying to make sense of the world. He does not agree with Sigmund Freud that dreaming is the way we express our hidden feelings and desires(愿望).Scientists believe it is important to keep researching dreams.
