【缤纷自然篇】-1We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded. When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration (迁移) is probably the migration of fish, which is called “salmon”. This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move downto the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.Recently (近来), scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster (龙虾). Every year,when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walkacross the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at othertimes we don’t. Maybe living things just like to travel.1.Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to _______.A.give birthB. enjoy warmer weatherC. find food more easilyD. find beautiful places2.The fish called “salmon” spends a long time in ______.A. salt waterB. riversC. fresh waterD. its birthplace3.The mice in northern Europe move when _______.A. they give birthB. the place gets too crowdedC. the weather is badD. they haven’t enough food4.The lobsters move ________.A. to the fresh waterB. at a certain timeC. to the underseaD. to find more food5.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Animals move to find food more easily.B.The migration of the fish called “salmon” is the most famous migration.C.Living things move from one place to another because they like to travel.D. Sometimes we know why and how living things move from one place to another, but sometimes we don’t.【答案与解析】这篇短文讲述了某些生物的迁移这一自然现象,并分析了迁移的原因。

2014年中考英语复习:阅读理解练习含答案(20篇)初三英语阅读理解20练1.The worst tourist in the world is Nicholas Scottie of San-Francisco. Once he flew from the U.S. to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home. The plane made one-hour stop to get oil at Kennedy Airport of New York. As he thought he had arrived home. Mr. Scottie got off the plane. He thought he was in Rome. When nobody was there to meet him, Mr. Scottie thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic. While looking for their address, Mr. Scottie found that the old “Rome” had changed a lot. Many old buildings were replaced by high modern ones. He also found that many people spoke English instead of Italian and that many streets were written in English. Mr. Scottie knew very little English, so he asked a policeman the way to the bus station. He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered him in the same language. After twelve hour’s traveling round on a bus, the driver handed him over to a second policeman. He asked the policeman why the Rome police employed so many people as policemen speaking English instead of Italian. Mr. Scottie did not believe he was in New York when he was told so. To get him on a plane back to San Francisco, he was sent to the airport in a police car with sirens (警报) on. “Look,” said Scottie to his interpreter (翻译), “I know I’m in Italy. That’s how they drive.”1. When Mr. Scottie arrived at the airport, nobody met him because _______.A. he was in New YorkB. he was not in RomeC. policeman could help himD. both A and B2. In what direction did the plane fly when Mr. Scottie went to Italy from the U.S.?A. To the eastB. To the southC. To the westD. To the north3. Why was Mr. Scottie so sure that he was in Rome?A. Because he knew little about the U.S.B. Because he knew little bout Italy.C. Because he traveled a lot.D. Because he didn’t travel much4. At last Mr. Scottie __________.A. know he did something wrongB. still thought he was in Rome.C. knew he was wrongD. knew he was at home5. Do you think many people do the same things as Mr. Scottie did?A. Nobody but Mr. Scottie made this kind of mistake.B. Many people make this kind of mistake.C. Few people make this kind of mistakeD. 50% of people will make the same mistakeKey: 1-5 DAABC2.“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the world has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer. We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her stude nts to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.”Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.6. We know that the word “cool” has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningsC. many different meaningsD. the same meaning7. In the passage, the word “express” means “____________.”A. seeB. showC. knowD. feel8. If you are ________ something, you may say, “It’s cool.”A. interested inB. angry aboutC. afraid ofD. unhappy with9. The write r takes an example to show he is _______ the waythe word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried aboutD. careful with10. In the passage, the writer suggests (暗示)that the word “cool” ______.A. can be used instead of many wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colourfulD. may not be as cool as it seemsKey: 6-10 CBACDn arts11.

Worlds like these are planets. But there are other stars, other suns, not only thousands of them, but millions of them. Do different stars have planets? We can see the planets round our own sun. but we haven’t been anymore. The stars are too far away from us. Stars give out light, but the planets don’t have any light of their own. So we can’t see them. They are too far, and too dark. Still, we can tell that some stars have planets. While a big planet goes round, it pulls its star to one side. And sometimes we can see this. Then we know that the star has a planet. For example, Barnard’s Star is a small red star. And it is the quickest star in the universe. But sometimes it moves slower, and then quicker again. We have known Bernard’s Star for many years, and now we are sure it has a planet.16. A star is a large body in the universe.

Sometimes they see that the planet pulls the star to one side and makes it move slower.B. The planet is shiningC. The planet is next to our earth.D. The planet is a red one.Key: 16-20 BCBBA5.We were going to play against a team from a country school.They didn’t come until the last minute. They looked worsethan we had thought. They were wearing dirty blue trousers and looked like farm boys.We sat down for a rest. We felt that we didn’t need any practice against a team like that.The game began. One of us got the ball and he shot a long pass to our forward (前锋). From out of nowhere a boy in an old T-shirt stopped the ball and with beautiful style (姿势)he shot and got two points. Then another two points in a minute. Soon the game was all over. We were beaten by the country team.After that, we thought a lot. We certainly learned that even though your team is very good, you can’t look down upon the others and still need to do you best. And the most important lesson we learned was: One can’t judge (判断) a person or a team only by their clothes.21.

So I visited my younger 18 last weekend and had a long talk with him.

His friends kept shouting around him, ―It‘s time to come out now.‖ At last, the caterpillar answered, ―I‘m afraid it‘s 23 outside.‖His friends said, ―You won‘t be transformed if you hide in a cocoon. It‘s time for you to come out and 24 the world your beautiful colors. You can‘t do that if you stay in your cocoon.‖ The caterpillar 25 followed their advice.

I just handed the bag of food to the surprised man and 30 home.On the way I couldn‘t help thinking, ―I hope people 31 that‖. Then I had to 32 ask myself why I hoped people had witnessed me give the man a sandwich from Starbucks. Was it 33 I wanted people to think, ―She‘s such a nice person!‖? I continued to wonder this all evening.The next morning it came to me.

But, say 21 , and they'll think you weren't friendly. So, 22 can you talk with adults?It's 23 Just ask them questions about themselves. "Many of them like to talk about what they do for a living," suggests psychologist Tim Ursiny, author of The Confidence Plan.Kids can also talk to grown-ups about 24 Ask what the last good movie they saw was, because people at dinner parties "light up" when the 25 turns to movies, Ursiny says. If a grown-up is 26 Harry Potter, it's OK to talk about your love for Harry. It's a safe topic, one that both grown-ups and kids can enjoy, so go ahead and talk about whether Dumbledore is really dead.But 27 the topic of video games. "Adults don't want to hear about your video game 28 they play it," Ursiny explains.Adults also don't want to hear slang. Don't use language they don't 29 Ursiny says kids should learn to speak to other people in their own language. 30 most adults aren't into slang, they do remember what it was like to be a kid. Ursiny recommends asking adults what school was like when they were your age. "It might be a fun discussion if you 31 your 10th-grade experience with theirs." Make sure you 32 with your parents beforehand to find out which topics are off-limits (禁区).Also, don't chat about things that make your parents feel guilty. Don't mention 33 stuff such as how Dad has been sleeping on the couch, Ursiny says, And don't complain that Mom has been late preparing breakfast.Instead, Ursiny says, kids should try to put themselves in their parents' 34 Learning how to 35 that type of understanding might help you out in the future."

Teddy lay on the floor beside me; suddenly she began to pull at the fur(毛皮)on her tail. 49 I could stop her, she had ripped (扯) out a few clumps(团).Teddy‘s 50 stopped my tears and self-pity. The next morning, I found Teddy sleeping in a mass of long black hair, no doubt with considerable pain. Her beautiful black 51 now looked like a funny little rat‘s tail. Then Teddy looked up at me with her devoted little face. It was 52 she was willing me to feel better. I could almost hear her saying, ―If you have to lose your hair, I‘m going to lose mine, too.‖Teddy and I both appeared a bit 53 that summer. In the fall, when her winter coat came in, Teddy‘s tail quickly began to look better. My hair 54 a bit longer to return, but I never 55 about it again. Sharing my loss with Teddy took the sadness away.36. A. spend B. live C. share D. save37. A. said B. doubted C. complained D. believed38. A. introduction B. invitation C. education D. hesitation39.

1. 【2014年福建省龙岩市中考】阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题,并按要求完成第105题。
Should Shanghai bid for(申办) the Summer Olympics in 2028? Here are some people’s opinions.Some people said, “The games will improve Shanghai’s global influence and the city is powerful and must try to become a platform(平台) for major international dialogues. Shanghai has succeeded in holding the World Expo in 2010 and the city can also hold a successful Summer Olympics.”Others, however, are not sure that it’s a good idea. They think the Olympics would be too expensive and the money could be better spent on other things.The 2008 Beijing Olympics brought much prestige(声望) to the city and to China, but its cost, over $40 million, was high and the Olympic site(场地) in the center of the city is now largely unuse d. Could Shanghai learn from Beijing’s experience and do it better?My answer is yes. As one American said, “A great city has to do great things.” Shanghai is a great city and is not afraid of facing challenges. Holding the 2028 Summer Olympics would prove that.【小题1】When did Shanghai hold the World Expo?【小题2】Why don’t some people agree to bid for the 2028 Summer Olympics?【小题3】How much did the 2008 Beijing Olympics cost?【小题4】Does the writer agree to Shanghai’s bidding?【小题5】请将划线句子翻译成汉语。

名师点评
本文主要想告诉读者,学英语是一个长期而艰苦的劳动,没有任何捷径可走。
无论你用什么方法学习——用书、机器或在学校,不多实践就无法达到预期的目的。
答案简析
1.B。
这里的or是“否则”的意思。
2.C。
根据作者的观点,这种事绝对不可能发生。
impossible是一个形容词,不符语法,can’t后不可
能跟happens,often意思与作者的意图相反。
3.D。
唯一容易学的语言是母语。
这里需要一个形容词充当后置定语。
4.A。
用来修饰不可数名词,只有用how much,全句意为“母语好学,还需要那么多的练习。
”何况外
语呢?。
5.B。
动词不定式充当目的状语。
意为“学习外语来研究文学”。
6.C。
说某种语言用speak,speak English,speak Chinese。
7.D。
用it代指上文所说的a foreign language。
8.B。
这里的with是“用”的意思。
9.A。
作者在这里提出一种假设。
如果他们一星期只有一两次使用外语。
10.C。
固定短语,意为“做某事花费某人多长时间”。
11.B。
后面省略了than 6 hours。
意为6个小时或更多的时间。
12.D。
it 代指上文所指的foreign language,故用被动被态。
13.C。
许多人不可能做到这一点。
这里不可以用not possible,因为它的主语不可以用人。
14.D。
机器和书对于学习英语来说是很有帮助的。
15. B。
whether …or…固定短语。
