But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are？ the boy asked．He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled（残疾的） brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car. “There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent（美分）. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

We all need to dream," some scientists say.Dreams take up（占据） about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night. Dreams are like short films. They are usuallyin colour. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over and over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They may（可能）have been thinking about their work all day. These thoughts can carry over （携入） into dreams.Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream. But often we can't remember the dream. Dreams can disappear (消失) quickly from memory (记忆).Too much dreaming can be harmful (有害的). The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is hard at work when we dream.

He told his dog to stay at home and look after his baby son. The baby was in a wooden cradle（摇篮）, which was like a small bed.When the Prince came back from hunting, Gelert ran out to meet his master. He wagged（摇） his tail（尾巴） and jumped up to put his paws（手爪）on the Prince's chest. Then the Prince saw the blood（血） on Gelert's jaws（颚） and head."What have you done?" the Prince said. He rushed into his house and looked for his baby son. The cradle was lying on its side on the floor. The clothes were torn and there was blood on them."So you have killed my son?" the Prince said angrily. "You unfaithful dog!" He took out his sword（剑） and killed the dog. Just as Gelert was dying, he managed（设法） to bark. Then the Prince heard a baby call to the dog. The Prince ran out of the house and saw his son lying on the ground unhurt （没受伤）. Near him was a dead wolf. Then the Prince knew that Gelert had defended（保卫） the baby and killed the wolf.The Prince ran back into the house but he was too late. Gelert was dead. The Prince was very sad indeed. Tears ran down his face when he realized 'he had killed his faithful friend. The Prince carried the body of his brave dog to the top of a mountain and buried（埋葬） him there. After this, the Prince never smiled again.

Not so many people know that kites were first made in China thousands of years ago. The ancient (古代的) Chinese were making and flying kites even before they were writing.A long time ago, the Chinese made kites to use in wars. They would fly these war kites in the dark. The kites were fixed (固定) so that they made strange sounds. Men who were at war with them would hear these sounds and run away. They thought those strange sounds were made by gods(神) in the sky.The ancient Chinese also flew kites to bring good luck and to make their crops（农作物） grow rich and tall. Sometimes they tied long strings (细绳) and hooks (钩) to their kites. Then they would fly the kites over water, letting the hooks hang down to catch fish.The Chinese use sticks（树枝）, strings（线） and paper for their kites. Some of these kites look like animals or trees. Others look like birds or houses.1.

At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks (网络) didn't work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system (系统) had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information（信息）could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time.At first the Internet was only used by the government (政府), but in the early 1970s, universities (大学), hospitals and banks (银行) were allowed (允许) to use it too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software (软件) that made "surfing" (浏览) the Internet more convenient (方便). Today it is easy to get on-line (上网) and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day. Sending e-mail (电子邮件) is more and more popular among students.The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people's life.1.

SoftwareD. Information5. Which of the following is true?A. In the 1960s, computer networks worked well.B. In the early 1970s, the Internet was easy to use.C. Sending e-mail is now more popular among students than before.D. Today it's still not easy to get on-line.009 Pollution（污染）The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modem traffic and modern communication means (通讯设备). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution (污染). To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up（用完） or the river was dirty in one place, Man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.Air pollution is still the most serious. It's bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules (法规) to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal (煤) in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused (引起) by heavy traffic. It is sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in population at the same time.1. Our world is becoming much smaller ___.A. because the earth is being polluted day and night.B. thanks to science developmentC. because of the rise in populationD. because the earth is blown away by the wind every year2. Thousands of years ago, life was ____ it is today.A. much easier thanB. as easy asC. as hard asD. much harder than3. Pollution comes in many ways. We can even hear it. Here "it" means ____.A. water pollutionB. air pollutionC. noise pollutionD. rubbish (垃圾)4. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution because ____.A. it's bad for all living things in the worldB. it makes much noiseC. it makes our rivers and lakes dirtyD. it makes us angry more easily5. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Many countries are making rules to fight pollution.B. The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world's population does.C. If people could go to work by bus or bike instead of car or motorbike it wouldbe helpful in fighting against the problem of SO2.D. The problem of pollution is not so serious because there are not so many peopleliving on the earth.010Long, long ago there were only a few thousand people in the world. These people move form place to place over the land, hunting animals for food.No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their lives changed. They did not have to look for food any more.They could stay in one place and grow it.People began to live near one another. And so the first village grew. Many people came to work in the villages. These villages grew very big. When machines appeared(出现), life in the villages changed again. Factories were built. More and more people lived near the factories.

第一篇(A) My friends and I had a two-day vacation last week and we decided to visit a famous mountain. It was a nice experience（经历）. We arrived at the foot of the mountain by bus.

八年级英语阅读理解题(附答案)
八年级阅读理解题【模拟试题】（答题时间：120分钟）阅读理解练习：（一）Hi, Louis!I’m writing to tell you something about the customs and festivals. Everyone loves holidays since one doesn’t need to go to school or work. Although all holidays mean no school and work, but not all of them are the same. On some of them you go out with friends; on others you stay home to eat, talk, and have fun with your family. For example in the U.S., everyone thinks New Year’s Eve and New Year are both for partying with friends. Christmas is the time to stay home and exchange gifts with family members. The opposite is true in Japan though. For example, in Japan, New Year is for spending time with the family to eat, talk, have fun, and go to the temples. But Christmas is for boy and girl friends to go out and exchange gifts. Originally Christmas should be to celebrate the birth of Christ.I have been interested in foreign customs since I was little. If you learn these different holiday customs, you will learn about different histories and cultures. This is much more interesting than learning them at the library from morning to evening.Love,Sue 根据短文内容，判断正误。

初中英语中考英语阅读理解训练的专项培优练习题(含答案一、中考英语阅读理解训练1．阅读理解How do you get to school every day? By bus or car? Song Kexin, a 14-year-old schoolgirl in Xiamen, prefers to go to school on her bike. "It's the quickest and easiest way to get to school," she said. "When there's a traffic jam, I feel the freedom while passing so many car lines."China was once known as the kingdom of bicycles. But these years, the popularity of bicycles in Europe is rising. Last year, more bicycles were sold than cars in Europe, according to the BBC.Cycling is a safe, clean and cheap way to get around the city. It makes both traffic jams and pollution less, and is great for our health.Of course, Rome wasn't built in a day. The popularity of cycling in many European countries is greatly because of bike-friendly policies.As the traditional "cycling capital" in Northern Europe, Copenhagen's roads keep bicycles and motor cars separated（分离）as much as possible. On these roads, there are pre-green lights for cyclists. These kinds of bicycle traffic lights turn green a few seconds before car traffic lights do. They give the cyclists time to avoid traffic while they are crossing.In Amsterdam, people can hire a bike from almost anywhere in the city. You can start from three hours and the average price for a full day is 8 euros （66.8 yuan）.This year, in Ruian, there are also similar policies to hire public bikes. It's only 20 yuan for a full day. Do you see them around the city? It's important to be safe when you are cycling. If you remember the following ideas, you will be safer.■Although you may think a helmet（头盔）is not cool, it can protect your head if you fall down. Just choose the one that fits you best.■Stop at all stop signs and obey red lights just as cars do. It's a good idea to walk your bike across busy crossings by following traffic lights.■If you are cycling with friends, ride in a line. Don't ride with each other side by side.■Wearing headphones while you are biking is not a good idea. You need to hear what's going on around you.（1）Which of these advantages of cycling are NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Quick, easy and free.B. Safe, clean and cheap.C. Green, healthy and popular.D. Convenient, traditional and comfortable.（2）In Paragraph 5, the underlined word "They" refers to " ".A. pre-green lightsB. car traffic lightsC. Copenhagen's roadsD. bike rental companies（3）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Cycling is much better than driving cars.B. It is helpful for cyclists to wear a helmet.C. More bicycles were sold than cars in China last year.D. In Amsterdam, the average price for a bike is 8 euros.（4）What is the best title for the passage?A. Be Careful While BikingB. Bike-friendly Policies Around UsC. Bikes' Rising Popularity in EuropeD. How to Solve the Problems of Transportation【答案】（1）A（2）A（3）B（4）C【解析】【分析】短文大意：这篇短文讲的是中国曾经是自行车王国，但是这些年欧洲人们骑自行车的人的数量正在上升，人们为什么要骑自行车和怎样骑自行车更安全。

下面给大家整理了初中英语阅读理解练习题及答案，希望对大家有所帮助!初中英语阅读理解练习题和答案篇1When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retireor that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words.By Jack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。
