湖北省武汉市武昌区2021-2023年三年中考一模英语试题分类汇编：阅读理解(含解析)
湖北省武汉市武昌区2021-2023年三年中考一模英语解析版试题分类汇编阅读理解2023年湖北省武汉市武昌区中考一模英语试题三、阅读单选31．According to the material, we can know that ________.A．the article is from School Life sectionB．the photo was provided by TEENSC．TEENS reported the news on May10th, 2022D．the costurmes were all made by the cosplayers32．What do we know about the cosplayers and their costurmes?A．Most cosplayers buy their costurmes online.B．Cosplay is only popular among teenagers.C．You have to be a designer, propmaker and artist to be a cosplayer.D．Cosplayers need to have many different abilities to make their costurmes.33．Which subject didn’t help the author to make wings for the costurme?A．Math.B．Physics.C．Engineering.D．Computer programming.34．What does the sentence “It’s a huge fuss!” mean in Paragraph 5?A．It needs many people to finish.B．It requires a lot of efforts.C．It is the easiest part of the process.D．It is a lot of fun to do the project.35．You might describe the costurmes as ________.A．simple and plain B．popular and easyC．creative and fantastic D．superb and high-techHave you ever bought Genki Forest (元气森林) sparkling water because it’s advertised as “sugar-free”? It’s popular among students. The company recently apologized for a misleading advertisement.The company said the drinks are “sucrose-free”(零蔗糖), but this is not the same as “sugar-free”. Now thecompany has changed the words “sugar-free” to “low sugar” on the bottles.In fact, there are many kinds of sugar. Sucrose is just one of them. Other kinds of sugar, such as fructose (果糖) and sugar alcohol (糖醇), are still in Genki Forest drinks. These types of sugar are used as sweeteners (甜味剂). They offer little energy, but a small amount of them can make drinks taste sweet. That’s why diet drinks like Genki Forest are popular among people who want to lose weight.However, studies find that the sweeteners might make people eat more. When you eat sweet-tasting things, it sends your brain a “sweet signal”. Then your brain tells your body to prepare itself to take in energy. But since the diet soft drink has little energy, you will feel hungry and start getting energy by eating more food. According to China Daily, drinking too many diet drinks might lead to obesity (肥胖) and type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). Would you like to try diet drinks now?36．Why did Genki Forest apologize?A．For not having sugar in its drinks.B．For misspelling words on its packaging.C．For advertising its products incorrectly.D．For making too many advertisements.37．What can we infer about Genki Forest from Paragraph 3?A．There are sweeteners in its drinks.B．Its drinks have high levels of sucrose.C．Its drinks taste sweeter than other drinks.D．People can lose weight with its drinks.38．What do studies show about sweeteners?A．They cause the brain to stop receiving signals.B．They provide enough energy for people.C．They stop the body from getting energy.D．They probably make people feel hungrier. 39．According to the passage, drinking diet drinks can be __________.A．fun B．harmful C．refreshing D．fashionable40．What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A．Sweeteners can make drinks sweeter.B．Genki Forest is popular with people.C．Diet drinks can help people lose weight.D．Think twice about the diet drink trend.Jacob was a driver sent to pick me up for a three-hour drive. I needed to go to inland Mexico, where I would be working.As we were driving, he started to tell me his story. He shared that since the pandemic he had to change jobs. He was currently spending six days a week in a town with more work, away from his family.He said the name of his hometown, “Nah Bok”. On his only day off, he rode three different buses for a total of five hours there and back so he could have time with his family.My father worked away when I was young. Sometimes for weeks or months at a time, I remember us kids back then, waiting our turns to have just a couple of minutes on the phone with him.After two hours into our drive, when I saw a sign saying Nah Bok, I asked him if that was where his family lived. He said, “Yes, it is about 5 kilometers down the road.”I said, “Why don’t we stop and say hello?” He looked at me like I was crazy or joking. I repeated it seriously. He obviously didn’t want to get in any trouble. He was hesitant (犹豫的). He asked if I was sure. I absolutely was.

"It was much harder than I thought.I wasn't expecting （预想）so many hills and how busy the roads were，" Chandler said."It was much harder than I thought.I wasn't expecting so many hills and how busy the roads were，" Chandler said. "But if you put your mind to anything，then no matter how big，you can do it."Chandler first thought of trying the route when he read an article about it two years ter，as his father's 50th birthday came around，he decided to go for it.He was already used to cycling around his village and to school before starting his journey.During his ride，Chandler raised 600 pounds for Smile Train.It is a children's charity that pays for surgery for children in developing countries who have cleft lips （兔唇）.（1）According to the material，we can know that .A.the article is from School Life sectionB.the photo was provided by LaurenceC.Wuhan Post reported the news after the BBCD.Chandler finished the trip on May 12，2021（2）What do we know about Laurence Chandler？A.He cycled through Great Britain.B.He became the youngest cyclist in the UK.C.He found a new route for cyclist in the UK.D.He traveled around the UK on his own.（3）The main idea of the second paragraph is .A.how Chandler finished his tripB.how Chandler felt about his journeyC.why Chandler decided to go bikingD.what Chandler did during his trip（4）From Chandler's experience，we know that .A.he will cycle the route again in the futureB.he raised some money during his tripC.he started cycling two years agoD.he is afraid of cycling up and down hills（5）Chandler might describe his experience as .A.relaxingB.enjoyableC.dangerousD.challenging18．（10分）When he was nine years old，Felix Finkbeiner gave a class talk on climate change.The young German spoke about deforestation（砍伐森林）and its effect on the planet.At the end of his talk，he challenged the people of his country to help by planting one million trees.Nobody thought much would come of a nine﹣year﹣old's school project.Before he was 20，however，Finkbeiner's efforts had resulted in the planting of more than 14 billion trees around the world.Finkbeiner and his classmates began the project named "Plant﹣for the planet"— by planting the first tree outside their school.Other schools followed the example，and news of the one﹣million challenge spread.As a result，Finkbeiner was asked to speak at European Parliament.Other invitations soon followed，and when he was just 13，he spoke at a United Nations conference（联合国会议）in New York. "We cannot trust that adults alone will save our future，" he said in the speech. "We have to take our future in our own hands."Finkbeiner is now in his twenties，and Plant﹣for﹣the﹣Planet is an organization with around 70，000 members.It works to teach people about climate change and to encourage the planting of more trees.Germany's one million tree was planted long ago.The goal now is one trillion — 150 for every person on Earth.Finkbeiner continues to give talks on climate change to world leaders. "I don't think we can give up on this generation of adults，" he says，"and wait 20 or 30 years for our generation to come to power.We don't have that time.All we can do is push [current world leaders] in the right direction."（1）The reading is mainly about .A.how planting trees can help the environmentB.the problems deforestation can cause for our planetC.the push from younger generation to the world leadersD.how a young person has made a big difference to the environment（2）The purpose of paragraph 2 is .A.to describe Finkbeiner's personalityB.to show how successful Finkbeiner wasC.to explain how Finkbeiner's project grewD.to give an example of the challenges Finkbeiner faced（3）In paragraph 3，the word "It" refers to .A.Plant﹣for﹣the﹣planetB.Germany's one millionth treeC.climate changeD.the planting of more trees（4）What is NOT true about Plant﹣for﹣the﹣planet today？A.It teaches people about deforestation.B.It has many thousands of members.C.Its aim is to plant one billion trees.D.It is started by Finkbeiner and his classmates.（5）Which of the following is the best summary of Finkbeiner's words in the last paragraph？A.It will be easier to make changes when today's young people have more power.B.Young people today need to push those in power to make change.C.Today's world leaders are a good example for younger generations to follow.D.We cannot trust that adults will make an effort in saving the environment.19．（10分）The birth of our daughter changed the tracks（方向）of our life.My wife and I settled in the United Kingdom —we' d even bought a house 6 months earlier—but the arrival of our daughter forced a moment of rethinking.We wondered whether we should move back to our homeland Brazil.I remember looking down at our newborn baby and thinking about how different her life would bethere.In our native country，we'd be closer to our family and culture.But in the United Kingdom，I had the funding and lab resources I needed for my costly research program.Would such a move sink my career？Several events over the next few months nudged us further in the same direction.We heard that new professor positions had opened up at a university in our hometown，in departments that matched both of our research programs.Then，a few weeks later，I received a call from my brother，who told me that our father had passed away.A deep sadness made me feel that I was losing precious time with my loved ones.There was no doubt it was the right time to return to Brazil.We applied for the professorships（教授职位）and both received offers.It felt like our personal and professional lives were falling into place.It wasn't easy getting started with my research in Brazil，however.I didn't receive any startup funding for my lab and I had to share equipment with other professors.Nine years later，I still haven't been able to perform the kind of experiments that U.K.funding would have allowed.But looking back，I have no complaint.We've been able to have big meals with our big family on weekends.We had a second child，and our kids are growing up close to their cousins who are around the same age.We are living the lives we wanted to live—working on rewarding research while staying true to what we feel is best for ourselves and for our family.（1）What is the root（根本）reason for the family's moving back home？A.Better future career choices.B.Loss of a beloved family member.C.Worries about their girl's health.D.Hope of living in their own culture.（2）What does the underlined phrase nudged us further in Para 2 mean？A.Raised our doubts.B.Quickened our decision.C.Reduced our worries.D.Increased our uncertainty.（3）What is the writer's attitude about life back at home？A.Satisfied.B.Regretful.C.Uncertain.D.Anxious.（4）Which of the following is TRUE？A.After returning to Brazil，the writer couldn't deal with his life well.B.It was a lot harder getting started with the writer's research in Brazil.C.The positions in Brazil didn't match the couple's research programs.D.The writer had enough money and resources for the research program in the UK.（5）What is the best title of the text？A.The Gold Will Shine.B.Love Is Precious.C.East or West，Home Is Best.D.A Good Medicine Tastes Bitter.2021年湖北省武汉市武昌区中考一模英语试题七、阅读单选I recently read a book called The Shawshank Redemption（《肖申克的救赎》）. It tells a story that is both shocking and full of hope.Set in 1947, it tells the story of Andy Dufresne, a banker who was sentenced(判处) to life in Shawshank State Prison. He was accused of killing two people, although he didn’t do it. After years of suffering in the prison, he started to make friends with others and won their respect with his outstanding accounting (会计学的) abilities.But Andy never stopped wanting freedom. During his 20 years in prison, he had been digging a hole with a small pickaxe (篙头) every day and hiding the hole with a poster. As his well-prepared escape plan was put into practice, the suspense (悬念) in the book keeps me on edge until the end.Famous Irish writer Oscar Wilde once said “We’re all in the gutter (臭水沟), but some of us are looking at stars.” This saying perfectly sums up Andy’s life. The thing that makes the biggest impression on me is Andy’s love for the beauty of life. He plays a song over the prison’s broadcast system, even though he was not allowed to do so. When the singer’s voice was heard, the prisoners stopped talking, immersing themselves in the music and letting the beauty flood in.The goal of this book is to show readers the power of strength, hope and patience.56．In which section may we read the above material?A．MAGIC WORLD B．COOL INVENTIONC．I REVIEW D．DETECTIVE FUN57．Andy was put in prison because ________.A．he stole money from a bankB．he made some bad friendsC．he dug holes in the groundD．he was said to have killed two people58．The underlined words “kept me on edge” in paragraph 3 probably mean ________.A．to make me feel anxious but also curiousB．to make me feel relaxed and comfortableC．to make me feel like giving up readingD．to make me feel bored and sleepy59．The paragraph 4 is mainly about ________.A．how Andy escaped from prisonB．why Andy played a song on TVC．what Oscar Wilde thought of the bookD．what kind of attitude Andy held towards life60．The author of the story would probably agree that ________.A．many people are put in prison by mistakeB．it is not necessary to fear the worldC．hope is the best thing to hold on toD．prisoners should be allowed to listen to musicA sunflower is a sunflower. A mobile phone is a mobile phone. But can you combine the two to do something for the environment? It may well be possible next year. When you have finished with your mobile phone, you willbe able to bury it in a garden or a plant pot and wait for it to flower.A biodegradable (生物所能分解的) mobile phone was, this month, introduced by scientists. It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage consumers to recycle.Scientists have come up with a new material over the last five years. It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft, and is able to change shape. But over time it can also break down into the soil without giving out any poisonous chemicals. British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that contains a sunflower seed. When this new type of cover turns into waste, it forms fertilizers (肥料). These feed the seed and help the flower grow.Engineers have designed a small window to hold the seed. They have made sure it only grows when the phone is thrown away. “We've only put sunflower seeds into the cover so far. But we are working with plant experts to find out which flowers will perform best. Maybe we could put roses in next time." said one scientist.As phone technology is developing so quickly, people are constantly throwing their mobiles away. This means producers are under pressure to find ways of recycling them. Some 650 million mobile phones have been sold this year. Most of them will be thrown away within two years, adding plastic, heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment. However, a biodegradable cover can offer some relief for nature.61．After you have finished using the new type of mobile phone, __________.A．it can produce a sunflower seedB．it will be recycled by some scientistsC．the phone will do harm to the environmentD．the phone cover will break down easily into the soil62．What can we know about the cover of the new type of phone?A．It may make the seed grow at any time.B．It can give out poisonous chemicals when breaking down.C．It can turn into useful fertilizers for the sunflower seed.D．Its shape can be changed into hard or soft plastic.63．The type of research is done because ___________.A．too many waste mobile phones may lead to environmental problemsB．the technology of making phones is changing so quicklyC．nobody has ever thought of recycling mobile phonesD．it can help flowers grow better64．According to the passage, it’s TRUE that ___________.A．about 650 million mobile phones are recycled every yearB．biodegradable mobile phones are available in the marketC．engineers have designed a small window to hold the rose seedD．the flower only grows when the phone is thrown away65．What’s the purpose of the passage?A．To discuss the development of the cell phone technology.B．To introduce an environmental-friendly cell phone to the readers.C．To persuade the readers to buy biodegradable cell phones.D．To tell the popularity of biodegradable cell phones.Pierre Dupin had delivered milk to the families on Prince Edward Street for thirty years. All who knew him loved him.Every morning at five, Pierre arrived at the milk company’s stables, saying to Joseph, “Good morning! My old friend!” Then, the two started their day proudly. Without any order from Pierre, the wagon would roll down the street. The horse stopped at the first house. There, Joseph would wait perhaps thirty seconds for Pierre to getdown off his seat and put a bottle of milk at the front door…One day, the president of the company came to check the early morning milk deliveries. Jacques, the foreman(领班) of the stables, pointed to Pierre and said,“See how the horse listens and how he turns his head toward Pierre?”“Yeah! But Pierre’s getting old.” said the president, “Tell him it is time he rested…”But Pierre said, “My life will be nothing if I can’t drive Joseph every day. We are two old men! Let us wear out together. When Joseph is ready to leave, then I too will do so.”Then one cold morning, after about two years, Jacques said, “Pierre, your horse, Joseph, didn’t wake up. Go over and see him.”Pierre took one step forward, then turned. “No…no… You…you don’t understand, Jacques.”Now, Jacques looked into Pierre’s eyes. He saw a dead, lifeless look in them. So he said, “Take the day off, Pierre!Pierre stepped into the street. Then there came a warning shout and a screech(尖锐的刹车声)…Five minutes later, a doctor announced, “Pierre’s dead…”“I couldn’t help it.” the driver said, “Why, he walked as though he were blind?”The doctor bent down. “Blind? Of course! This man has been blind for five years.” he turned to Jacques, “Didn’t you know that?”“None of us knew.” Jacques said softly, “Only one…only one knew—a friend of his, named Joseph…”66．According to the first two paragraphs, we can know that ___________.A．Pierre and Joseph worked well togetherB．people on the street knew Joseph better than PierreC．Joseph knew the streets in the city better than PierreD．Joseph managed to deliver milk by itself even without Pierre’s company67．Pierre refused to leave his job because __________.A．he thought he was not old enoughB．Joseph couldn’t work without his helpC．he was unwilling to be separated from JosephD．people on the street couldn’t live without him68．The underlined sentences tell us that __________. A．Jacques was surprised to find that Pierre couldn’t see anything B．Pierre was too scared to take a last glance at his friend C．Pierre was so sad because it was time for him to leave his job then D．the death of Joseph drove Pierre to lose confidence for life 69．We can infer from the passage that __________.A．no one had ever known Pierre was blindB．Joseph just served as Pierre’s guide after Pierre went blind C．blindness didn’t make any difference to Pierre’s life at allD．the president wasn’t quite satisfied with Pierre’s work70．The best title of the passage could be“__________”.A．A Secret for Two B．A Lifelong Friend C．I’m Your Eyes D．A Blind Man参考答案2023年湖北省武汉市武昌区中考一模英语试题31．C32．D33．D34．B35．C【导语】本文主要介绍了角色扮演者（cosplayers）自己制作服装是需要很多技巧和努力的。

Last summer, my family and I took a trip to Beijing, the capital of China. We visited many famous tourist attractions, such as the Forbidden City, the Great Wall and the Tiananmen Square, which were all very beautiful and historic places to see in person. We also went to some traditional Chinese restaurants to try different kinds of Chinese food, which were delicious and unique in taste and texture. On the last day of
our trip, we took a boat ride on the Beijing Zoo Lake and saw many different kinds of animals, including pandas, tigers and elephants. We had a great time on our trip and will always remember it as one of the best experiences of our lives.。
