2020-2021中考英语模拟试卷分类汇编英语任务型阅读理解(附答案)
一、英语任务型阅读
1．阅读下面的短文，然后根据文章内容回答问题。

Imagine this: your parents go away on business, but you have to stay at home alone. Would life be as easy as when your parents are around? Would it be a perfect holiday for you?
"I can fill an empty stomach with tomato and egg soup, but that's all. I think many of my classmates are the same. We wouldn't know what to do, or how to look after ourselves," said Zheng Chenyu. "And I'd forget something important. I'd probably watch television and burn the soup."
"As soon as I leave home, I'll learn to cook. But now parents do almost everything for us.
We're very lazy," she said.
Most teenagers have only time for their homework. They don't learn any life skills until theygo to college.
However, Sima Yige doesn't think so.
"I think I'd be all right. I wouldn't just eat sandwiches or fruit. I know how to cook, some simple dishes because my mum showed me," the 13-year-old boy said. In his opinion, many teenagers depend too much on their parents, and there is much more to learn than cooking, like tidying up your room or even dressing yourself properly.
For most teenagers it wouldn't be a holiday at all.
（1）Why would Zheng Chenyu probably burn the soup?
（2）When will Zheng Chenyu learn to cook?
（3）Translate the underlined sentence（翻译划线句子）"They don't learn any life skills until they go to college. " in this passage.
（4）The underlined phrase（划线短语）"depend too much on" in the passage means（意思） in Chinese.
（5）For most teenagers, would life be as easy for teenagers living alone as when their parents are around according to（根据）the passage?
【答案】（1）Because she would probably watch television and forget the soup.
（2）As soon as he leaves home.
（3）他们直到上大学才会学习一些生活技能。

（4）太过依赖
（5）No, it wouldn't.
【解析】【分析】主要讲了当父母出差时，孩子们独自在家时的生活是怎样的。

（1）根据I'd probably watch television and burn the soup.可知她看电视而忘记了汤，故填Because she would probably watch television and forget the soup.。

（2）根据As soon as I leave home, I'll learn to cook可知她一离开家就学习做饭，故填As soon as he leaves home.。

（3）not...until直到......才......，learn any life skills学习一些生活技能， go to college去上大学，故填他们直到上大学才会学习一些生活技能。

（4）depend on依赖，too much太，故填太过依赖。

（5）根据For most teenagers it wouldn't be a holiday at all.可知大部分青少年在父母出差时觉得一点也不是假期，即生活不是简单的。

所以一般疑问句的否定回答，故填No, it wouldn't.。

Americans love to drive on their holidays. Usually, the family gets into a car or recreational vehicle(RV，旅行房车) and drives for a summertime trip across the country.
RVs are like our houses. There are kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms in RVs. They are big, but can be very small when you share a bed with your little brother or try to play a game.
But RV travel is a great time with the family. You can see the country in your own "home". You can spend every night in a different place. And, you don't have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas(汽油). Best of all, you are free to go everywhere you want at any time.
【解析】【分析】主要讲了美国人的旅行房车。

（1）根据the family gets into a car or recreational vehicle(RV，旅行房车)可知RV的全名是recreational vehicle，故填recreational vehicle。

（2）根据There are kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms in RVs.可知RV里面有厨房、卫生间和卧室，故填bedrooms。

（3）根据You can spend every night in a different place可知可以在不同地方度过每个夜晚，故填spend。

3．阅读下面一则小故事，将描述故事发展的五个段落重新排列，使故事完整。

________ ________ ________ ________ ________
“You really did a good job，Miss Ray．When you told me that your brother was in the room，I realized there must be something unusual，”said Mr．Collins，“because we knew your brother had been killed in a robbery half a year ago．''
【答案】E；A；D；B；C
【解析】【分析】短文讲述了一个人在家的Jolie遭遇在逃的强盗，冷静应对，最终使自己得救的故事。

A.可怕的消息让Jolie吓坏了，而在那一刻，穿着一件棕色外套的男人突然出现，站在她面前。

B.一会儿有一辆警车的声音。

有人敲门铃，强盗说，用枪指着朱莉的背，“打开门，说你睡觉了，不要让任何人进来。

“
C.当Mr．Collins，一名警察，问Jolie是否有异常的事情时，Jolie告诉他，没有任何错误，她正和她的哥哥一起看电视。

Mr．Collins离开了。

然而，几分钟后，有些人警察打破了窗户，立即抓住了强盗。

D.“把你的钱放在桌子上，”强盗说，“如果你打电话给警察，你只是要求麻烦。

”Jolie感到更加害怕，但是她试图冷静下来。

E.“这是警方的一个重要通知。

大约晚上9点，一名女士被一名棕色的男子抢劫杀死，如果你知道有关男子的话，请打电话给警察局。

"
由第一段电视节目突然中止可以推测，可能有重大的突发事件发生。

A、B、C、D都不足以是电视节目中止，故E排在第一始；杀人的强盗仍然在逃，是一件可怕的事。

A选项符合题意，故A排第二；D选项应该是发生在警察没来之前，B选项发生在警察正赶来时。

根据时间顺序，D在前，B在后。

故D排第三，B排第四。

根据短文最后一段可知，强盗应该已经被抓住。

所以本段可能是强盗被抓，故C排第五。

正确的排序为：E—A—D—B—C。

【点评】本题需要学生理解每段的大意，仔细分析段落之间的前后关系。

4．根据短文内容从方框中选出五个句子填入文中空缺处使短文内容通顺完整。

6．阅读下面一段短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格只填一个单词。

Creating a study plan
Studying is important to students. But it is always difficult to find enough time to study every subject you need. So a good plan helps you to make sure of your success in study.
Then, how to make a study plan? Well, you can begin with listing all the subjects you need to study and make sure what you need to do for each subject. Next, you should decide how much time you should spend on different subjects. Now, it is a good idea to study at the same time every day. In this way, you actually have a plan you can remember easily. While arranging (安排) time for each subject, you also need to make sure that you still have time for family, friends and rest. This is because you won't be able to succeed in your studies unless you balance your personal life and your study.
Once the plan is made, the next thing you need to do is to follow it. One of the biggest challenges in following your study plan is that you will be tempted (诱惑) to avoid it and do something relaxing, or fun instead. Luckily, you can fight this temptation by taking breaks. But be sure not to take extra breaks or too long breaks as it can affect your plan. So at the start of your
break，set an alarm clock to remind you when your break is over. Also, you need to use your break wisely. For example, go for a short walk, eat a small snack, or listen to some music.
To avoid forgetting to follow your plan, try to get into the habit of looking at your calendar every day. Sometimes our plans are herd to follow because some important people in our lives distract (使分心) us from our goals. In order to avoid this, tell people in your life about your plan. Put up a copy of your study guide at home so you and your family can see it, and email a copy to your friends so they know when you have spare time.
7．根据短文内容，从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Taking a nap(小睡) every single day may be the least favorite thing for a child in kindergarten. However, being able to relax and get some rest in the middle of the day is great for many adults. ________
________People who take naps are seen as lazy. You can even be kicked off your job if you fall asleep at work. This kind of thinking dates back to the founders of the US, Puritans(清教徒).
________
________Some people even bring their pillows(枕头) to work for nap time. People have a much more relaxing attitude towards taking naps than in the US.
________But on the other hand, having a short rest can help you work better. A good rest can improve your mood as well. So why not take a nap during lunch break and make the rest of the day more enjoyable?
【答案】 B；E；D；A；C
