16年中考英语复习专题练习《阅读理解2》及答案
2016年中考英语 专题16 任务型阅读试题(含解析)
专题16 任务型阅读☞解读考点我国教育部颁发的《英语新课程标准》倡导任务型的教学模式，要求教师依据课程的总体目标并结合教学内容，灵活地和有创造性地使用教材，设计贴近学生实际的教学活动，吸引和组织他们积极参与，并在此过程中培养学生用英语解决实际问题的能力，让学生学会用英语“做事”。
任务型教学中包含的一个很重要的组成部分就是任务型阅读。
新课程背景下英语中考命题以全面地考查学生的综合语言运用能力为宗旨，特别是要考查学生在具体情境中运用英语知识与技能的能力。
任务型阅读正是新课程改革精神在中考中的体现。
直击考点任务型阅读任务型阅读是“阅读理解”的另一种形式，考查学生归纳概括能力和语篇结构理解能力。
其内容涉及广泛，要求学生在阅读理解的基础上，完成一项任务或解决一个问题。
所以“任务型阅读”是介于阅读理解和写作之间，其任务已不同于阅读理解中的选择题或书面表达，而是在理解文字的基础上，完成相应的图表或文字练习，从而有效地测试学生用英语“做事”的能力。
“任务型阅读”题型分析任务型阅读主要考查学生收集信息、整理信息的能力，是对语言应用能力的考查，是培养学生阅读兴趣的一种很好的题型。
它考查的题型多样，可以是翻译句子，也可以是改写句子，可以是填写表格，也可以是回答问题。
根据对任务设计的要求不同可将其分为三类：阅读回答问题根据短文内容回答问题是阅读理解的重要题型。
针对初中知识水平，问题设计一般比较简单，多数考题针对文章中的细节，答案都能在原文中找到出处。
最后一个问题通常为开放性题目，只要言之成理就能得分。
因为是问答题，所以一定要依据问句的形式和内容答题，解题时，要了解不同问题的回答方式。
通常第一道题都是一般疑问句，所以要用yes或no来回答；选择疑问句回答时不用Yes/No，需选择其中正确的一部分来作答；反义疑问句也用Yes或No来回答，但意思要视实际情况而定：前肯后否，正常回答；前否后肯，根据事实从后往前翻译。
如（1）They work hard,don’t they?他们努力工作，不是吗？Yes, they do.对,他们工作努力。

It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.②People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems blurry (=unclear). Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted.③People who are far-sighted(远视) suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.④Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.⑤Having two good eyes is important for judging(判断) distances(距离). Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.16．We should look after our eyes well ________.A．only when we can see well B．only when we cannot see perfectly C．even though we can see well D．only when we know how important our eyes are17．When things far away seem unclear, one is probably ________.A．near-sighted B．far-sightedC．astigmatic D．suffering from cataracts18．Having two eyes instead of one is especially useful for ________.A．seeing at night B．seeing objects far awayC．looking over a wide area D．judging distances19．Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?A ．B ．C ．D ．Sports play an important role in teenagers’ li ves.

For example, young people with untidy bedrooms are usually very creative. They are good at subjects like English, art and even at math. That can be the result when children use their heads to think about how to solve a problem.This doesn’t mean that a bedroom should always be untidy. Cleaning up a bedroom once a month, for example, is usually enough and makes people use their imagination (想象力) more. Children who have untidy bedrooms often remember details.Children should clean their own rooms because this is part of their jobs but not always theparents’. Part of growing up is learning to care for yourself and be able to make your own decisions. These children often do better in life because they’ve learned how to spend free time.Also, sometimes children will have a surprise when they clean their rooms. They may get excited when they find ¥50 under the bed or find their gifts under the quilts.It’s important for children to improve their own personality (个性) and an untidy bedroom can be part of this.23．According to the writer, children with untidy rooms _________.A．are usually very lazy B．are usually very smartC．like to use their heads D．like to clean their rooms24．According to Paragraph 3, we can infer that children who often clean rooms _________.

So one day he asked God, “They tell me you are sending meto earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?”God replied. “Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will be waiting for you and will tak e care of you.”But the child wasn’t sure he really wanted to go. “In heaven (天堂), I don’t do anything but sing and smile, and that’s enough for me to be happy.”“Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel’s love and be happy.”“And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language that men speak?” the child asked.God patted him on the head and said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.” “I’ve heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?”“You angel will protect you even if it means risking her life!”At that moment there was much peace in heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child knew he had to start on his journey (旅行) very soon. He asked God one more question, softly. “Oh God. if I am about to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”God touched the child on the shoulder and answered. “You angel’s name is not hard to remember.

It is passed from generation（一代）to generation only as the spoken word.Food, art and everything else about the city also has a flavor that can’t be found in the rest of China.

You want to jump in and save them but that might put you in danger. What do you do?Soon this won’t be your problem anymore because a robot swimmer called Swumanoid will be on-hand to help.Scientists from Japan created this robot to swim like an Olympic athlete. They mapped the swimmer’s body and how every part moves, so the robot could swim exactly as a human does.Swumanoid can swim the backstroke (仰泳) and the front crawl (自由泳) at a speed of 0.64 meters a second, which is a third of the human world record according to the Daily Mail (每日邮报).Motomu Nakashima, the leader of the study, hopes that robots like Swumanoid can act as lifesavers in the future, helping those in trouble.Besides saving lives, Swumanoid can also be used in swimming research. It can test water resistance (阻力) and work out how people swim. The information collected is expected to help scientists find ways to improve a swimmer's skills.Unlike human swimmers, robots don’t get tired from doing the same stroke (泳姿) again and again, so they do not slow down. Thus, they can collect information more correctly.But the robot is not yet ready to take the place of lifesavers by the pool. Scientists say there are still certain things that need to be improved, such as the motors and waterproofing (防水的) design.52．Swumanoid can swim exactly as a human does because _________.A．it was created by an Olympic swimmerB．it can follow the way swimmers moveC．it can swim the way real swimmers moveD．it can help people who are drowning53．Swumanoid can collect information more efficiently because ________.A．it can do many types of strokes B．it can swim as fast as world record-holders C．it won’t feel tired and never slows down D．it doesn’t feel water resistance54．How many uses for the robot swimmers are mentioned in the passage?A．One.

Water pollution kills fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal 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.

There’s always something deep in our soul that never dies. I moved to the small, busy town of Edison in New Jersey six years ago. It was during the second term of my fifth grade. My parents got new jobs and higher income, so they decided it was time to move from Woodbridge to a better, more educational town.In the US, it is unnecessary to take a test to get into a “good” middle or high school. You just attend the school close to where you live. So, many parents will think about the q uality (质量，品质) of the local school when they dec ide to buy a new house. My parents did the same. We finally chose Edison mainly because of the high quality of its school.In New Jersey, an area with a good school usually means a concentration of Asian people. There are about 300 students in our school. 55% are Asians and just under half of that are Chinese. There are so many Chinese people nearby that we even have our own Chinese school.Edison is an old town, just like thousands of others in the United States. However, I have treated it as my hometown. That’s where I spend much of my youth, and the memories there can’t be moved at all.31. Why did the writer’s parents move to Edison?A. Because they were born there.B. Because it was a better educational town.C. Because the writer began his fifth grade.D. Because the writer didn’t need to take a test.32. How many students are from Asia in the writer’s school?A. About 80.B. About 160.C. About 220.D. About 300.33. What does the underlined expr ession “a concentration of” mean in Paragraph 3?A. None ofB. The whole ofC. A large number ofD.

人教版九年级英语阅读理解习题二(含答案)
人教版九年级英语阅读理解习题二（含答案）All living things need energy to live and grow. This energy comes first from the sun. Plants use water and sunlight to make their own food. Animals can not make their own food, and they eat plants. Other animals then eat the plant eaters.A food chain shows what eats what. It might show that zebras eat grass and then lions eat zebras.Lions also eat other animals. Zebras eat other kinds of plants. So it takes more than one food chain to show how lions and zebras get their energy.A food web shows how food chains work together. From it we can see how energy moves from plants to animals.Plants and animals that live in hot, dry deserts depend on water as well as food. Creosote bushes have small leaves that hold water. Their seeds provide food and water for kangaroo rats. Kangaroo rats don’t need to drink water. They get all the water they need from the plants they eat. Kangaroo rats keep cool by coming out only at night to look for food. Ringtail cats also come out only at night. Ringtail cats hunt and eat kangaroo rats. Coyotes eat both the kangaroo rats and the ringtail cats.Nothing is wasted in a food wed. Vultures eat dead animals. Vultures are scavengers. Scavengers do not hunt and kill other animals to get food. They eat animals that are already dead. When a ringtail cat or a coyote dies, it makes a meal for the vultures. Scavengers do an important job in keeping the environment clean.1. Where does the energy that living things need first come from?A. Animals.B. Plants.C. The sun.D. Plant eaters.2. Why do ringtail cats come out only at night?A. Because they are afraid of coyotes.B. Because they are shy animals.C. Because it is very hot in the daytime.D. Because they can eat kangaroo rats.3. What kind of animal can be placed in the empty box of the picture?A. Kangaroo.B. Vulture.C. Cat.D. Zebra.4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Lions eat different kinds of animals.B. Plants are on the top of the food chain.C. Scavengers can keep the environment clean.D. Some animals get water from the plants they eat.5.

中考英语复习之阅读理解热点专项训练 专题02 保护生物多样性 促进可持续发展(解析版)
专题02保护生物多样性促进可持续发展A（2022·广东深圳·校考三模）The International Day for Biological Diversity（生物多样性日）is celebrated on May 22. Its aim is to remind people to get along with the nature.The day was first created in 1993 by the UN and it was on December 29th. In 2000, the UN changed it to May 22. This was partly in memory of the UN convention（公约）on May 22, 1992. But it was also hard for many countries to organize events on December 29, because there are already many holidays in that time of the year. Every year, the celebrations of the day are organized on a different topic. The topic in 2022 is “Building a shared future for all life”. The message behind is that biodiversity is what we can depend on to build a bright future. It is also the answer to several development challenges.Biological diversity are necessary for our daily life. For example, fish provide 20% of animal protein to about 3 billion people. Over 80% of the human diet is provided by plants. As many as 70% of people from countryside in developing countries depend on traditional plant-based medicines for basic healthcare.While people start to know that biological diversity is valuable, the number of species（物种）is dropping because of human activities. That is why the UN decided to celebrate the day every year.1．What does “it” mean in Paragraph 2?A．The UN.B．The building.C．The date.D．The aim.2．What can we learn from the topic of 2022?A．We can build a bright future for all life by sharing.B．We can use different animals to make our future bright.C．If we have difficulty developing, we may turn to biodiversity.D．If there are fewer animals or plants, we will have a bright future.3．How much of the human diet is provided by plants?A．20%.B．70%.C．80%.D．100%.4．What is the main idea of the last two paragraphs?A．The history of the day.B．The celebrations of the day.C．The causes of the death of animals.D．The importance of biological diversity. 5．Where can we find the article?A．A nature magazine.B．A storybook.C．A guidebook.D．A comic book.【答案】1．C2．C3．C4．D5．A【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了生物多样性日。

your face right after it has eaten meat.If owners choose to feed bones to their pets, they should watch their pet carefully when it iseating bones.Burk also says, "If the pet eats a big piece of bone

I was in the eighth grade at the time，and we were having a final test. In the test, the girl sitting next to me said something to me, but I didn’t understand. So I got closer to her and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers could not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test paper had been turned in，the teacher asked me to stay in the classroom when all the other students were out. Then she began to talk to me about honesty and emphasized(重点强调) the fact that when people do something dishonest，they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had talked to me about all those things.The next day, I realized that the teacher thought I had cheated in the test. When she saw me talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen，but she said it seemed very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen when she talked to me after the test. She continued to believe that I had cheated in the test.(1)(2.5 points)The story took place exactly ______.A. in the teacher’s officeB. in the classroomC. in the playground(2)(2.5 points)Why did the boy get close to his classmate during the test?A.

They find other criminals by using science and their computers. When there is a bank robbery(抢劫)，the police first look through their computers for the names of the bank robbers that they know about. Then they go and talk to any of these robbers who are not in prison(监狱).They ask them where they were when the robbery happened. If any of these people cannot give a good answer，the police will often use science to find out if one of them is the robber.Many criminals leave something of themselves at the places of the crimes like a fingerprint or a hair. Or they take something away on their shoes or clothes，like dirt or animal hair. If they leave behind some of their blood or their hair or a piece of skin，it will have their DNA inside it.Everyone’s DNA is different and their fingerprints are also different. So，if a criminal cuts himself during a robbery or leaves his hair，or even a small piece of skin，scientists can find out what his DNA is. The police can then ask the person they think is the robber to give them his hair or some blood and see if it has the same DNA. Many criminals are in prison today because of this kind of evidences.根据上文内容判断正误。

2016年中考英语复习专题练习《阅读理解2》及答案2016年中考英语复习专题练习《阅读理解2》“Please take my penny,” said Maggie to old Dan, the fisherman, who sat on a bench repairing his nets. Her brother Andrew drew her back, whispering, “Maggie, he is not a beggar (乞丐)!” But Maggi e paid no attention. “Please take it,” she said again. Old Dan smiled, and took it. “Thank you, little miss,” he said, “It is kindly meant.” After that, Maggie went to the beach to gather shells. She never thought how fast the hours were passing until being tired, she sat down on a rock beside a little pool. Soon she was scared by a noise near her, and Dan?s large dog Rover jumped down from a rock! He licked her hands and made a loud noise, and then began gentlyto pull her coat. “Rover wishes me to com e away, I see,” she said, and she rose from the rock and began to go home. However, that was not so easy as she had expected. She found the places she had gone down easily very difficult to climb up, and as the tide (潮水) had been coming in for some time. She found some of the stones wet and smooth. What could poor Maggie do? She felt sad and cried, but the waves made a much louder noise than she could make, and perhaps she would have been drowned (淹死) without good wise Rover. Rover jumped upon a big stone and raised his loud bark until even the waves could not drown it. The fisherman had taken his nets to the top of the cliffs (悬崖), and was laying them out in the sun when he heard the loud barking of a dog. He felt sure that it was Rover, and Rover in trouble, so, going to the edge of the cliffs, he looked over. There he saw itall—Rover barking for help, and the little child standing beside him. “Bless her! It is the little one that was so kind-spoken to me this morning!” he cried, and he hurried to his sons? home. “Quick, boys, quick!” he said. “Get to the boat, and row fast to the bay (海湾). There is a poor child there just waiting to be drowned.” The fishermen lost no time, and soon little Maggie and Rover were rowed safely to land! Old Dan was waiting there to lift her out, and give her into her mother?s arms. “It was the penny that did it, madam,” he said to Mrs. Weston later. “I saw Rover looking at her when she put the penny so kind-like into my hand—just as if he would have said, ?Rover will be your friend now, little girl.? And I am thinking he had been looking after her all the day, for he never came near me after that.” Some years later, Rover came to Maggie?s home with a little note, in which waswritten—“Will Maggie help Rover?—his mast er is dead.” 1. Which word can best describe Maggie? A. Funny. A. Rover. B. Helpful. C. Creative. D. Silly. D. Andrew.2. Who rowed Maggie to land safely?B. Old Dan.C. Old Dan?s sons.3. From the end of the story, we can guess that ______. A. Maggie refused to be Rover?s new master B. Rover felt sad about Mrs. Western?s death C. Rover lived with Old Dan until his master died D.

That day was the first day of a three-day national holiday marking the Tomb-Sweeping Day. Two people died in a local hospital where nine others are being treated. Another person died after treatment failed in a larger hospital in Wuxi where 22 remain hospitalized, Changzhou traffic police updated on its official microblog account at The accident happened at the Changzhou section of the highway linking Shanghai and Nanjing. It drew public attention as people began posting photos and videos on Chinese social media WeChat and Weibo. Images showed dozens of trucks, buses and cars crashed into each other. People were standing on top of the vehicles. Local police toldXinhua Press that at least two trucks, three buses and 20 cars were involved. Rainy and foggy weather caused poor visibility and slippery roads. What?s more, it was difficult for ambulances (救护车)to get to the scene of the accident because the life emergency lane was filled with vehicles, which delayed the rescue of the injured. The Ministry (部长) of Public Security told traffic departments nationwide to keep a look out for vehicles using the emergency lane occupancy. All highways in China leave the right lane as the emergency lane. Some drivers, however, pay no attention to this rule. Therefore, the police call on drivers to follow the rule strictly and offer the injured more hope of being saved. The ministry also asked the police to watch the traffic more carefully so as to quickly discover the potential (潜在的) danger. The police have decided to addelectronic monitoring instruments to catch the violations (违规者) and heavily fine drivers for it. 1．This passage is most probably taken from ________.A．a novel B．a play C．a news report D．a speech 2．Which of the following might be the cause of the traffic accident?

When you make a mistake, big or small, treasure i t as it’s the most valuable thing in the world. Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, and get mad at ourselves. And that’s only natural: Most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, and we should try to avoid mistakes. We’ve been punished when we make mistakes —at home, school and work. Maybe not always, butprobably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction(无意识的反应). Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be treasured and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world: They make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible. By test and error —trying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes — we have found out how to make electric lights, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, and to fly. Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, and make works of genius(天才) possible. Think about how we learn: We don’t just get information about something and know it at once or know how to do it. You don’t just read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, orplaying the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from watching usually ... then you set a model in your mind ... then you test it out by trying it in the real world ... then you make mistakes ... then you correct the model based on the results of your real world experiment ... and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you’ve pretty much learned how to do something. That’s how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something new —because if you succeed in something, it’s probably something you already knew how to do. Y ou haven’t really grown much from that success —at most it’s the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey is made up of mistakes, if it’s a good journey. So ifyou value learning, if you value growing and improving, then you should value mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world full of wonders possible. 1.

Tobacco(烟草) is the biggest factor, causing 23% for cases in men and % in women, says the Cancer Research UK report. Next comes a lack of fresh fruit and vegetables in men?s diets, while for women it is being overweight. Lead author of the report, Professor Max Parkin, said: “Many people believe cancer is related to fate(命运) or ?in the genes(基因)?, and that it depends on luck whether they get it or not. Looking at all the evidence, it is clear that around 40% of all cancers are caused by things we mostly have the power to change.” For men, the best advice appears to be: stop smoking, eat more fruit and vegetables and cut down on how much alcohol you drink. For women, again, the best advice is to stop smoking, but also watch your weight. In total,14 lifestyle and environmental factors, such as where you live and the job you do, cause 134,000 cancers in the UK each year. Some risk factors are well founded, such as smoking?s link with lung(肺) cancer. But others are less well realized. For stomach cancer, a fifth of the risk comes from having too much salt in the diet, data suggests. Some cancers, like mouth and throat cancer, are caused almost mainly by lifestyle choices. But others, like gall bladder cancer(胆囊癌), are largely not related to lifestyle. Public Health Minister, Anne Milton, said: “By making small changes you can cut your risk of serious health problems—giving up smoking, watching you drink, getting more exercise and keeping an eye on your weight.” 1.

Which of the following can be learnt from the passage? A. Smoking is the only cause of lung cancer.B. Drinking a small amount of wine is good for health.C. Some cancers may not be caused by lifestyle choices.D. About 134,000 people die of cancer in the UK each year. On March 14, math and science lovers around the world celebrated a special day: Pi Day. Pi is equal to about , but the number goes on endlessly. It is sometimes written in Greek,π. With the help of computers, mathematicians have been able to calculate(计算) pi out to over a trillion (万亿) decimal (小数的) places, but there is still no end to the number. This makes pi puzzling, even for the most famous scientists and mathematicians. Pi Day is celebrated around the world on March 14, since how we write this date, 3/14, looks just like the number pi. For some people, the appeal(感染力) of Pi Day goes far beyond math and science. Pi shows up throughout popular culture. You can see it in movies, comics, music and more. “In modern movies, any ti me the filmmaker wants to produce a sense of mystery(神秘), often the symbol pi is used,” says David Blatner, Jewish American writer of The Joy of Pi. People also love trying to memorize the digits (数字) of pi and competing against others to see who can remember the most.Many teachers hold class contests to see how many numbers their students can memorize. The Guinness World Record for reciting the most digits of pi is held by LüChao of China, who successfully recited pi out to nearly 67,890 decimal places. Above all, Pi Day is about having fun with the number. People celebrate Pi Day by eating or throwing pie and with fun pi-related games and activities. This year, Princeton, New Jersey, held a birthday party for Albert Einstein whose birthday also falls on March 14. There was also a “Walk a Pi Event” where people walked miles together. Just like the number itself, the possibilities for Pi Day are truly endless. 1. The following about Pi Day is true EXCEPT. A. it?s on March 14 B. it?s a day just for scientists C.

In modern movies, the symbol pi is often used to _____. C. describe something boring A. Fun activities on Pi Day. C. Walk a Pi Event. When you make a mistake, big or small, cherish (珍视) it like it?s the most valuable thing in the world, because in some ways, it is. Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, get 4. What does the last paragraph talk about? mad at ourselves. And that?s only natural. Most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, and we should try to avoid mistakes. We?ve been blamed(责备) when we make mistakes—at home, school and work. Maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious (无意识的) reaction. Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world. They make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible. By trial and error—trying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes—we have thought about how to make electric light, to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, to fly. Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, and make works of talent possible. Think about how we learn: We don?t just use up information about something and know it at once or know how to do it. You don?tjust read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, or playing the piano, and know how to do them right away. Instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from watching, then you build a model in your mind...then you test it out by trying it in the real world...then you make mistakes...then you make a mistake and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until you have pretty much learned how to do something. That?s how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. Mistakes are how we learn to do something new—because if you succeed at something, it?s probably something you already knew how to do. You haven?t really grown much from that success—at most it?s the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. Most of the journey is made up of mistakes, if it?s a good journey.So if you cherish learning, if you cherish growing and improving, then you should cherish mistakes. They are amazing things that make a world of great brightness possible. 1. According to the passage, what is the right attitude (态度) to mistakes? A. We should try to avoid making mistakes. B.
