Plovdiv,BulgariaBulgaria's second largest city,Plovdiv shared European Capital of Culture duties with Matera in Italy in 2019.The city is one of the oldest settlements in Europe.The well-preserved2nd-century Roman theater is one of the finest archaeological sites in eastern Europe.There's also a rich archaeological museum. Pompeii,ItalyTypically pulling in more than2.5million visitors a year,there's rarely a quiet time to visit Pompeii.But that doesn't mean it's not worth making as much time for it as possible when in southern Italy.The perfectly preserved ancient city,buried under ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD79,is unlike anything else in Europe.Salzburg,AustriaWith the Alps looming over the1lth-century Hohensalzburg Fortress and series of beautiful palaces and churches.Salzburg is arguably the most picturesque city in central Europe.Protected by UNESCO,the modern world feels pleasing elsewhere.The city's most famous son,Mozart,draws tourists'attention with The Sound of Music which was filmed and set here.1.What do Ephesus and Plovdiv have in common?______A.Their old libraries are well-preserved.B.Their ancient theatres are still being run.C.They both have a2nd-century building.D.They share Capital of Culture duties together.2.What happened in Pompeii in AD79______A.A volcano broke out.B.Mount Vesuvius was protected.C.It was buried due to an earthquake.D.2.5million visitors arrived there.3.Which of the following is Mozart's birthplace?______A.Ephesus.B.Plovdiv.C.Pompeii.D.Salzburg.BShawn Triplett,who now works as a volunteer at a local elementary school,was recently helping out at a shelter when he witnessed a damaging interaction between a mom and her young child after they had been displaced by the tornadoes."I saw a child crying in his mother's arms.She was crying too,but you could tell she was doing her best to look strong,"he recalls."The boy told his mom,'I've lost my Christmas.'It was at that moment that I broke down and had to walk outside."After taking a night to think about how he could best help,Triplett decided to ask friends and family to donate money so he could buy toys for the children who were impacted."I was going to give them back their Christmas,"he explained."There was so much sup-port in the community for water,generators and food,but nobody was thinking about the kids.At least,not in the way it should be,so close to Christmas."Triplett ended up launching a GoFundMe page to help purchase holiday gifts for the children,which quickly spread on social media.Since launching the page three days ago,he had raised over$44,000.He also partnered with the local supermarket,which provided a25%discount on all purchases for him. While the toys were fully covered by the donors,Triplett said he had been footing the bill for wrapping paper.He planned to deliver the gifts in person in a Santa costume closer to Christmas."We chose to wrap them so that the kids get the full experience of what Christmas should be,"he said."We're doing everything we can to normalize a traumatic(创伤的)experience for them,even if just for a few

traumatic experience for kids.CHorseback riding might not seem like a typical New York City activity,but one program has several horse farms throughout the city's busy districts.GallopNYC provides lessons to veterans(老兵)and people with disabilities—horseback riding is their therapy(疗法).Olivia Diver visits the GallopNYC location in the Howard Beach neighborhood in Queens.Diver has only been riding horses for a few months,but says she's already felt the benefits."It helped me come out of my comfort zone and be less shy and less in my shell,"she said.Trying something new shows her she can accomplish other things as well.James Wilson,executive director at GallopNYC,says there are many ways horses can be therapeutic."The horse sees the world in the way somebody with post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)might see the world,in a really guarded,sort of anxious way,"he explained."So,somebody with PTSD and a horse can sort of partner together and see the world in the same way and kind of take care of each other."Horses can also help with physical disabilities.After two years of therapeutic riding,a teenager,who had so little core strength that his mother had to be in the bathtub with him,had enough core strength that he could be in the shower by himself.Wilson said,"The movement of the horse will loosen up muscles that might be really tight.And the movement helps stimulate other body parts and othermuscles that you might not use.""GallopNYC has about1,000people on its waitlist for lessons,but prioritizes people with disabilities and veterans.We believe that everybody benefits from the time on a horse,so if you want to ride a horse,come on,let's go,"Wilson said.Lessons are$55,but the non-profit fundraises to help cover or lower the cost for customers who may need support.8.Why does GallopNYC offer the lessons?______A.To make horse riding typical in NYC.B.To provide part-time jobs for veterans.C.To offer a cure to special groups.D.To promote disabled people's incomes.9.What can we infer about Olivia Diver______A.She has learned new life skills.B.She has found her comfort zone.C.She has changed her attitude to horses.D.She has gained much confidence.10.What does paragraph3intend to show?______A.GallopNYC's leader.B.The effect of the therapy.C.Profit James Wilson has got.D.Ways of guarding people's anxiety.11.What does Wilson think of the program according to the last paragraph______A.It is well received.B.It is highly profitable.C.It needs to be more creative.D.It takes ages to see the results.DScience reporting on climate change does lead Americans to adopt more accurate beliefs and support government action on the issue,but these gains are fragile,a new study suggests.Researchers found that these accurate beliefs fade quickly when people are exposed to coverage skeptical of climate change."It is not the case that the American public does not respond to scientifically informed reporting when they are exposed to it,"said Thomas Wood,associate professor of political science at the Ohio StateUniversity."But even truly accurate science reporting recedes from people's frame of reference very quickly."Results showed that accurate science reporting didn't persuade only politicians and people who initially rejected human-caused climate change also had their opinions shifted by reading accurate articles.The study involved2,898online participants who participated in four waves of the experiment during the fall of2020.In the first wave,they all read authentic articles in the popular media that provided information reflecting the seientifie views on climate change.In the second and third waves,they read either another scientific article,an opinion article that was skeptical of climate science,or an article on an unrelated subjeet.In the fourth wave,the participants simply were asked their beliefs about the science of climate change and their policy attitudes.To rate participants'scientific understanding.the researchers asked after each wave if they believed that climate change is happening and has a human cause.To measure their attitudes,researchers asked participants if they favored government action on climate change and if they favored renewable energy. "What we found suggests that people need to hear the same accurate messages about climate change again and again.If they only hear it once,it recedes very quickly,"Wood said.It was significant that accurate reporting had positive effects on all groups,including those who originally rejected climate change.But it was even more encouraging that it affected attitudes.12.What does the underlined word"recedes"in paragraph2mean?______A.Increases.B.Graduates.C.Disappears.D.Strikes.13.What does paragraph4mainly tell us______A.The research object.B.The research result.C.The research purpose.D.The research procedure.14.Why did researchers ask participants the second question?______A.To survey the government's satisfaction rate.B.To make an assessment on their attitudes.C.To teach them scientific understanding.D.To measure action on climate change.15.What can be the best title for the text?______A.Science Report Of Climate Change Can Affect MindsB.Online Participants Joined In A Four-Wave ExperimentC.Accurate Science Reporting Don't Persuade Only PoliticiansD.People Should Hear Accurate Messages About Climate Change二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共12.5分)Do you harbour hidden creativity?You may have an inner Vincent Willem van Gogh.(1)______.As we age,it's easy to lose our childlike wonder with the world,but by functioning our creative muscles,we can tap back into the feeling.Although arts and crafts are normally considered children's activities,they're actually age-independent and provide an important outlet for adults to release their creative expression.Indeed,such pursuits are arguably even more important in later life,helping to relieve stress and anxiety.(2)______.They're fun!More than anything,arts and crafts are enjoyable activities.(3)______.Often they try a simple project at home.Before they know it,they are searching the Internet for ideas and joining social clubs to share their ideas.They can improve creativity!(4)______.Give a child pens and paper and our natural drive to create is clear.Although the urge may diminish(减弱),especially as we invest in careers and families,adults are no different.Indeced,research shows that creativity and expression are vital marks of emotionalwell-being.(5)______.Practising this hobby allows us to create unique and inspiring presents for our loved ones.Whether you produce artistic or practical pieces,it's never been easier to create gifts for friends and family members.This degree of investment and personalisation in a bespoke present simply can't be bought.A.They're social activitiesB.They are great presentsC.Humans are naturally artisticD.Arts and crafts provide a lot of benefitsE.If so,arts and crafts may be just the ticketF.Many people quickly become addicted to them after their first tryG.Arts and crafts are an umbrella term covering a width of creative pursuits16.

初三九年级英语(完整版)英语阅读理解专项练习试卷及答案一、中考英语阅读理解1.阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出最佳选项。

What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic control. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality.Three-dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic.They build the object layer by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop, the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive.So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.(1)What is the passage mainly about?A. Environmental protection.B. The world of tomorrow.C. Advantages of technology.(2)What do we learn from the passage?A. Some people think technology development may bring new problemsB. 3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap.C. The flying cars won't bring air traffic jam even when they become popular.(3)What is the correct structure of the passage? (P1=Paragraph1)A. B. C.(4)What does the underlined word "they" refer to?A. Car companies.B. 3D print.C. Body parts.(5)We can infer that the writer ________ about the future life with technology.A. doesn't careB. feels hopefulC. feels disappointed2.阅读材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

人教版九年级英语阅读理解题(含答案)阅读A、B两篇短文,并从每小题所给的四个选项中,选出一个最佳选项。

( A )Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.”At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal.( )1. The passage tells us that mountain-climbing was ______ for the father and the son.A. hardB. enjoyableC. painfulD. comfortable ( )2. The underlined word “crystal” in the passage means _______.A. 岩石B. 火焰C水晶 D.寒冰( )3. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the father’s words in the second paragraph?A. You will get all you need at the top of the mountain.B. The sky is always as clear as crystal.C. You can find life is full of nice things.D. Never give up half-way.( )4. We can infer from the last paragraph that ______.A. the writer was very successful in his lifeB. the writer reached the top of the mountainC. though the writer was young, he could understand his fatherD. the writer used to stop half-way when he climbed the mountain( )5. The best title for the passage is ______.A. Reaching the Top of the MountainB. Standing at the Top of the MountainC. Conversations between Father and SonD. How to Get to the Top of the Mountain( B )What would you do if you were too shy? Here are some tips which can help you to get over shyness.★Get into the habit of smiling —it’s to your own a dvantage. When you smile at people, some will return it.★Read and learn about different and interesting topics like events, music, the environment and weather. Then you can start suitable conversations with others. When you do this, you’re no longer shy about your ability to keep the conversation going on.★Feel good about yourself. Positive thinking is a good enhancer of personality. Shyness is caused by such negative thoughts that others are far better than you. Stop such thoughts and believe in yourself. Look at yourself in the mirror every morning and say to yourself, “I’m a beautiful creation of God!”★Improve your appearance. Being shy can also be a result of not so being confident in front of people. Putting on clean and tidy clothes from top to bottom can help improve your confidence.★Ask for the help of a professional imageenhancer. There are also certain books which help you develop your image and do with shyness. You can turn to these things to get guidance. Enhancing your image is one good way of getting over your shyness. It can build up your self-confidence in front of anyone.( )6. The topic of the passage is ___________.A. Tips to get over shyness.B. Improve your appearanceC. Why are some people so shyD.

Buy it on the Internet! Need it now? Why wait? Ask to receive it the next day! Each day, more and more people try on-line shopping. In fact, online sales have doubled in the last ten years. But not everyone is excited. Some scientists now say that online shopping is bad for the environment.People are surprised to hear this." They think, I don't need to drive, and the business doesn't need to build a store, so there will be less pollution," says Nuria Prost, an environmental scientist. "But it is not so simple. In fact, online shopping is wasteful. It also adds to air pollution."In truth, the Internet is not always as good a friend to the environment as it seems. For example, most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials. But paper use increased by33percent between 1986 and 1997."Online shopping could have similarly harmful results," says Nevil Cohen, a researcher of environmental science. Part of the problem is what people are buying these days. In the past, people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material, such as books and clothing. But now people also shop online for large, heavy pro ducts such as televisions, computers, chairs and tables. These products need to be packed in lots of plastic and paper. This creates a lot of waste.Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution. When customers buy products and ask to receive them the next day, online businesses often have to send them by air. Airplanes use much more oil than cars and produce more carbon dioxide(二氧化碳). When people buy a lot of different things from different online businesses, this creates even more travel by airplane.Online product returns are also a problem. For example, an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes for free if they are wrong size. This doubles the packing materials and number of airline trips required to sell one pair of shoes."If people want to protect the environment, they need to think before they shop," says Prost. "People need to ask themselves: Is this exactly what I want? Do I really need it tomorrow, or can I wait?" Online stores can also ask customers to pay money for returns. This may make people shop more carefully." Online shopping is fast and easy, "says Prost," but we can't forget the harmful result it has caused to the environment."(1)The passage begins with several questions to .A. introduce the main topicB. describe online shoppingC. show the writer's opinionD. list advantages of shopping(2)What is the passage mainly about?A. The Internet is not good to the environment.B. Online shopping causes more air pollution.C. Online shopping is bad for the environment.D. Stop online shopping to protect the environment.(3)Which of the following is to show that online shopping is wasteful?A. Large products need more packing materials.B. Paper use increased by 33 percent about ten years.C. Businesses need to build a store to sell the products.D. Online shopping costs less than shopping in a store.(4)What is probably the best title of the passage?A. A Good Deal to MakeB. A Different Lifestyle to KeepC. A Cleaner Way to ShopD. A New Business to Start(5)Which of the following shows the structure(结构)of the passage?(P=Paragraph)A.B.C.D.3.阅读理解My 14-year-old son, John, and I saw the coat at the same time in a second-hand clothing store. It stood out among big and old coats. It was so beautiful and had an unbelievable price, $ 28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John's eyes shone. Dark, woolen coats were popular with teenage boys, but new ones could cost several hundred dollars. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. It fit him so well. John wore the coal to school the next clay. After he came home, I asked. "Did the kids like your coat?""They loved it," he said with a big grin.Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and much happier. "Good dinner, Mom," he would say every evening. Without a word of complaining, he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said, "You're right. I guess I will." When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.John and I both know we should never judge a person by his clothes. But it is true that when wearing beautiful and suitable clothes, we may try to be better in thought, speech and behavior to match what is on the inside to what is on the outside.(1)What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. The price of the coat was too high.B. John liked the coat very much.C. They often went shopping together.D. The writer didn't want to buy the coat.(2)What did John use to do when he was asked to study?A. Start at once.B. Put off his homework.C. Work hard on schoolwork.D. Carry in wood for the stove.(3)Which of the following changes did NOT happen to John after he wore the coat?A. He was willing to follow suggestions.B. He often helped to do some housework.C. He always worried about his study.D. He said sweet words to make his mother happy.(4)What does the writer want to say through this passage?A. What we wear could help shape who we are inside.B. Life is full of possibilities when we are young.C. We should not judge people by their appearance.D. It's a good choice to try different things in our lives.4.阅读理解One Thursday afternoon, when I was in Grade 9, a new boy came into my classroom. He was short and thin. He walked up to the teacher and told her, very seriously, that he was new. His name was Christian. He sat down, took a look at me, and then looked away. I didn't think he was very nice and I was sure he wasn't the type I would like to become friends with.During that year, I didn't talk to him much, but he smiled at me when our eyes met, always shyly. He never ate lunch with anybody, and he never talked to anybody but me.But one day I joined those unkind kids who were making fun of him. We made fun of him though I thought it was wrong."Haven't you got any friends?" a kid asked Christian, who had walked past us alone, head down. "No, he hasn't got any friends. He's too stupid and shy," I said. Then Christian looked up at me with the saddest dog eyes I had ever seen. I felt very sorry at that moment.That night, I couldn't sleep because I couldn't get Christian's face out of my mind. In the weeks that followed, he never met my eyes in class and never smiled at me. It was really hard for me to decide to write him a note asking him to forgive (原谅) me. But I thought I should.The next day in class, I wrote him a note telling him how sorry I felt. About five minutes later, I turned and saw tears in his eyes. "You will never realize what your apology (道歉) has meant to me, Jimmy," he said to me. "I hope we can become friends."We had lunch together that noon and we had the best talk I had ever had. Over the years at high school, we were close friends.When I think back, I realize that, if I had not apologized, I would never have known what a lovely person Christian was!Apologies can really change your life, so never miss the chance to tell somebody you are sorry.(1)From the passage, we know Christian was a ________ boy.A. tall and fatB. short and shyC. short and activeD. lovely and fat(2)Jimmy felt ________ after he made fun of Christian with other unkind kids.A. happyB. interestedC. sorryD. bored(3)This passage tells us that ________.A. we should make an apology when we hurt othersB. Jimmy's apology was unimportant to ChristianC. Christian wasn't lovely in factD. it is impossible to say sorry to others5.阅读理解Big data(数据) is lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites(社交媒体网站), companies and governments.One set of data can have people's names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need more help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he, she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad things?

AA farmer had a brother in town who was a gardener, and his brother had a garden full of the finest fruit trees. So his skill and his beautiful trees were famous everywhere. One day the farmer went into the town to visit his brother, and was surprised at the trees that grew quite well."Look, my brother," said the gardener. "I will give you an apple tree, the best from my garden, and you, and your children, and your children's children will enjoy it."Then the gardener called his workmen and ordered them to take up the tree and carry it to his brother's farm. They did so, and the next morning the farmer began to wonder where he should plant it."If I plant it on the hill," he said to himself, "the wind might catch it and shake down the delicious fruit before it is ripe. If I plant it close to the road, passersby will see it and take away the apples--but if I plant it too near the door of my house, my children may pick the fruit." So, after he had thought the matter over, he planted the tree behind his barn (谷仓).Time passed, but the tree had no fruit the first year, nor the second-then the farmer called his brother. When the gardener came, the farmer said angrily, "You have cheated me, and given me a useless tree instead of a fruitful one. This is the third year and still it brings out nothing but leaves!

Upset by this incident, she wrote to the Shibei district government of Qingdao, suggesting that they should introduce a "Neighbor Day" to encouragegreater spirit.As the birthplace of the festival, Shibei hosted the opening ceremony of this year's Neighbor Day on April 19. With the theme of" ▲ ", people from across the city got together to share their homemade food and discuss the family stories. They also set up a mobile neighbors' library to share books.Sarah from the United States said she had a great time with her neighbors as she experienced the art of Chinese paper cutting for the first time. Masha from Russia, who is studying Chinese at the Ocean University of China, described the event as a great chance to make friends with her Chinese neighbors and learn about the local culture with them. She tried her best at Chinese handwriting and also had great fun learning how to make dumplings. "I love eating dumplings but I never knew how to make them before, "she said." Now I can come to my neighbors' homes and learn in their kitchens."Neighbor Day grew from the needs of the people.

As a result, I always liked sleeping with my back facing the wall because it made me a little comfortable.—Gerard, not so afraid of the dark anymore, but still sleeps with his back facing the wallStrange as it probably sounds, I was scared of shadows(影子).Not the shadows themselves, but what they formed(形成).Because I was near-sighted(近视的), the shadows I saw formed into the scariest things I saw in my mind.—Jean, no longer afraid of shadows I was afraid of the old woman who lived alone right in front of us. Very large trees covered the front part of her small house.

I'm not going to say luck, talent, and Circumstances(境遇)don't Come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are Born with great intelligence, and that's just the reality of how life is.However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then make it more practical. And, vesides that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10, 000 hours studying and practising. To vecome great at certain things, it'll require even more time, which most people won't put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don't enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you give up before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there. It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were Born with some unusual talent, But thinking that way does you no good, andthere's a huge Chance that you're wrong anyway.No matter what you do, if you want to Become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction(入迷), and over a long period of time. If you're not willing to put in the time and work, don't expect to receive any rewards. Hard work won't guarantee(保证)you the level of success you may want, But it will guarantee that you will Become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.(1)Paragraph 1 mainly talks about __________.A. the reasons for successB. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success(2)The underlined word" that" refers to __________.A. putting in more timeB. succeeding in lifeC. Being good at somethingD. setting a practical goal(3)Successful people suggest doing what one loves Because __________.A. work makes him feel painB. he is likely to enjoy his workC. he gives up his work easilyD. it takes a lot of time to succeed(4)What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain that luck or talent leads to success.B. To tell us that one cannot succeed without time and practice.C. To show us that having a goal is the main reason to success.D. To describe that successful people like to show their great skills.5.阅读理解We often hear stories of animals rescuing people. But now someone has managed to return the favor.The event took place on a snowy January morning. Thomas Smith was walking his dog, Jack, in the park. "As I was walking, I just saw Jack running into the ice towards the ducks in the middle, and then he fell into the water and couldn't climb out," said Smith. He realized he had no choice but to try and save his dog. "Someone else told me the lake was only one meter deep, but it was at least twice that. I had to break my way through the 6-cm ice. Finally, I got Jack by the neck and pulled him out. I didn't think I had ever felt so cold by the time we got back to dry land. And when we got there, everyone was asking if Jack was okay—no one was particularly worried about me!"A neighbor, Julie Brown, saw it all happen. "The dog went onto an icy lake. All of a sudden, it started to go under. There were crowds of people around, and they were all shouting and screaming. Before I knew it, the owner (Smith) was in the water forcing his way through the ice, I couldn't imagine how cold it was.

They stood in a circle, with 30 more stones lying on top to form a ring of rocks. There was also an inner circle built with similar stones. The stones set up in a trilithon(巨石牌坊) pattern.A trilithon is made of two stone pillars with a stab of rock laid across the top. The stones weigh up to 20 tons each. People wonder how the huge rocks were placed that way.Historians agree that Stonehenge was built in three different stages. The first stage took place about 5, 000 years ago. At that time, a large circular earth wall was made. Historians believe the wall was dug and cut with tools made form anglers(鹿角)of red deer. The earth wall was about 98m in diameter(直径) a 5-meter-tall stone was placed near the center. Then, they had to transport the large blue stones (up to 4 tons) 384 kilometers to Stonehenge. Experts think they might be moved across ice and snow. The ground in winter in this area is usually full of ice and snow, making it easier to move the rocks. The next task was to stand the stones up. The most difficult task was putting the top stones in place. Each one of these tasks took a lot of planning and a lot of strength, but the workers of Stonehenge were excellent builders.Why was the monument built? Some scientists think it's a burial ground. There are over 400 graves (burial sits) nearby. A man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC). Others think Stonehenge was built by early astronomers. Scientists believe that when a person stands in the center of the monument, the changing of seasons can be seen. Certain stones mark the location of the rising and setting moon in midwinter. Other stones mark the rising and setting sun in midsummer. The ancient people held religious ceremonies on these days. These ceremonies probably asked the gods to bring good weather for crops and to protect the people from bad weather.Stonehenge is an engineering success. Thousands of years later, it still stands. As a calendar,Stonehenge is very accurate. It shows that early people had a deep understanding of the movements to the sun and the moon. They didn't have machines or computers, but Stonehenge shows people could do many things using only their muscles and their brains.(1)he first building stage of Stonehenge was ________.A. to dig and cut the earth wallB. to move the blue stones across the iceC. to stand the stones upD. to put the top stones in place(2)Which evidence(证据) is given to support the idea that Stonehenge was a burial ground?A. Stonehenge was made of stones.B. It is a place for celebrating ceremonies.C. The passing of seasons can be seen there.D. Two gold earrings were found in a grave.(3)The underlined word "accurate" in the last paragraph probably means "________".A. correctB. strangeC. hugeD. heavy(4)Stonehenge was probably NOT originally built for ________.A. touristsB. religious reasonsC. a burial groundD. telling the seasons8.阅读理解Our monthly talks start at 19: 30 on the first Thursday of each month except August.

If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!(1)According to the passage who have a communication problem?A. parents and other peopleB. only school kids and their parentsC. teachers and their studentsD. parents and children of all ages(2)How many pieces of advice does the writer give us to bridge the generation gap?A. 5.B. 4.C. 3.D. 2.(3)The underlined word "bridge" in the passage means "___________".A. 建立B. 消除C. 通过D. 到达(4)If the values of your parents are different from those of yours, you'd better ___________.A. argue with themB. keep away from themC. agree with them all the timeD. tell your parents what you care about(5)The best title for the passage is ___________.A.

She has given her list serious thought. “I’ve always wanted to travel into space,” she says. “I don’t really want to be an astronaut. But I do want to go to space as a tourist. I want to see the Earth from above.” Other things on her list include being on TV, seeing her favorite band in concert, learning how to speak Portuguese, and living in a foreign country. “I’ve always wanted to live in Brazil. As part of my bucket list, I want to attend Carnival in the capital of Brazil,” she says.Jose, 16, recently created a list of things he wants to achieve. It changes sometimes he adds and takes away things because he wants to keep the number of the things at seven. One thing has stayed at number one, though: he wants to visit a movie set. He would like to see the Harry Potter of The Hobbit movie sets. Other things on the list include being on TV, meeting his favorite sports star, living in a foreign country, skateboarding down a mountain, attending the World Cup, and backpacking across Europe. He would like to spend two months visiting Eastern Europe with his best friend Adam. “Maybe after I graduate from college,” says Jose.Carrie, 14, also has a bucket list. She first created it when she was 12. She would like to livein a foreign country for at least two years. She also wants to learn as many foreign languages as possible. But the number one thing on her list is to see her favorite band in concert. She also wants to go on a trip and to visit a movie set. Her favorite movies are the Hunger Games and Star Wars. Carrie is confident she will do most or all of the things on her bucket list. “I’m only 14,” she says, “I have my whole life ahead of me!”8. What is No.1 at Lindsay’s bucket list?A.

Many sports players have them, too. In the US, tattoos are very popular. Forty percent of Americans aged between 26 and 40 have a tattoo, and 60 percent of customers in US tattoo parlors are women. These people are often professional people like doctor, teachers and lawyers.However, tattoos are not modern. In fact, they are very old in human history. For example, archaeologists found a human in ice from 5,000 years ago. He had 57 tattoos on his back, ankles, legs, knees and feet. Tattoos were used for many different reasons. In ancient Egypt, people got tattoos because they were “beautiful”. But in ancient Rome, tattoos were negative and put on criminals and prisoners. In India, tattoos were religious.In the 16th and 17th century, European sailors arrived on the islands of Polynesia. They saw tattoos for the first time. The people on the islands had tattoos on their shoulders, chests, backs and legs. Often the tattoos were of animals or natural features like a river or a mountain. The European sailors liked them and made their own tattoos, so the idea traveled to Europe. Tattoos in Polynesia are still important today. They show information about a person’s history, their island or their job.So is there a connection between traditional tattoos and fashionable tattoos? And can you call tattoos a fashion? Chris Rainier is an expert in tattoos and his book Ancient Marks has photos of tattoos from all over the world. He thinks people in modern societies often have tattoos becausethey are a connection to the traditional world. But tattoos aren’t a fashion like clothes or a haircut because you can’t put them on and take them off again like a jacket or a hat. They are permanent and for life.12. When were tattoos brought to Europe?A. 5,000 years ago.B. 60 years ago.C. Until recently.D. In the 16th and 17th century.【答案】D13. What does the underlined word “parlors” mean?A. School.B. Stores.C. Hospitals.D. Theaters.【答案】B14. What’s the writer’s opinion about tattoos?A. Tattoos are religious in modern societies.B. Tattoos connect tradition with fashion.C. Tattoos are a fashion among famous people.D. Tattoos show information about a person’s hobby.【答案】B15. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Tattoos' History.B. Tattoos in Polynesia.C. Tattoos on a Human in Ice.D. Tattoos in Fashion and for Life.【答案】D。

九年级英语(完整版)英语阅读理解专项练习试卷及解析一、中考英语阅读理解1.根据短文内容,判断句子正误。

If someone says to you: "give me five", do not search your pocket to get five yuan! It will make others laugh! The person's not asking for your money, but your fingers.In the US, "give me five" or "give me the high five" is a popular gesture (动作). You can see it often in films or on TV. It means the clapping (拍) of each other's raised right hands together. People do it when they meet for the first time or something happy happens. For example, a student has good marks in exams or wins a lottery ticket (彩票).If a football team wins a game, the players will give high fives to everyone around to celebrate.This gesture may come from the old Roman gesture of raising the right arm for the emperor to show respect. This also showed that the person raising his arm did not have a sword (刀) in his hand.Why not try to give the high five to your friends?(1)"Give me five" is a gesture to ask for money.(2)The gesture "give me five" is the clapping of hands .(3)When you get good grades in your exam, you give your friends high fives.(4)The gesture started in America according to the story.(5)The Romans raised the right arm without a sword in his hand for the emperor to show their respect to the emperor.2.阅读下列短文,从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项Recently I had a trip to Sydney with my parents. We visited the Wildlife Park.The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals. Some are native(当地的) to Australis and can only be found there. There are more than 500 animals there, including kangaroos, koalas(考拉)and crocodiles(鳄鱼). They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo. In zoos, most of the animals are in cages(笼子).We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We could touch and feel them. It was very exciting to be so close to them. There were koalas there too. They looked very cuddly(令人想拥抱的). Although we couldn't carry koalas, I could take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir(纪念品) of my holiday in Sydney.The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater crocodiles and saltwater crocodiles. Some of them are very big and scary(吓人的)with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them. There was also a bird show. The keepers(饲养员)showed us different species(种类)of birds. I saw an old parrot(鹦鹉).

Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and men can’t make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore, animals and men need plants in order to live. This is the reason why we find so many plants around us.If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are many kinds of plants. Some plants are large while others are small. Most plants are green.Some plants have many small leaves. Others have only a few. There are many kinds of leaves. Leaves are of different shapes and colors.Leaves are also different in other ways. Some leaves have long thin parts at the end, we call them leaf stalks, some have short leaf stalks, others even have no leaf stalks. The leaf edges are also different.

A banana is yellow outside and white inside — looking like a Westerner and yellow outside — looking like a Chinese.Do you know why? Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them don ’t speak Chinese. Also, they are not interested in Chinese politics.But if ABCs can not speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are Chinese. They are overseas Chinese. These people may be citizens (公民)of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Theirparents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair. But they are not Chinese citizens. They are not people of the People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C .N.Yang (杨振宁). H e got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him.

Before they keep them at their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them needles so that they won’t carry disease(疾病). They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every store. Some people spend aro und two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people’s homes, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animals in Canada. They have a law against killing wild(野生的) animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished(处罚). If an animal happened to get run over by a car, people would be very sad about it.People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family tie is not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own career(生涯). Then the seniors(老人) will feel lonely.

New medicines and machines are developing every day to extend life. However, some people , including some doctors, are not in favor of these lifeextending measures, and they say that people should have the right(权利)to die when they want. They say that the quality of life is as important as life itself, and that people should not be forced to go on living when conditions of life have become unbearable. They say that people should be allowed to die with dignity(尊严)and to decide when they want to die. Others don’t agree and say that life under any conditions is better than death and that the duty of doctors is always to extend life as long as possible.

She looked carefully after the prices of things. She bought lots of things in the supermarket. When they got home, the children said,―We don’t think you saved money by going to the supermarket.‖―Of course I did,‖ Mrs. Wilson said. ―Everything was cheaper there.‖ ―We know,‖ the children said,―but we came home by taxi because we h ad too much to carry.

This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3%—the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can not even use all of that. Even worse, some of it has been made dirty.However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is becoming larger and larger quickly—almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious worldwide water shortage (缺少) later on.We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道). From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places.But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in theworld is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up.( ) 46. The world is thirsty for water because .A. man hasn't got enough food to eatB. we haven't got enough fresh waterC. only 70% of the earth's surface is waterD. more water is sent into sewer systems( ) 47.

(b) Carry salt water into lakes or rivers.(c) Try to save the fresh water as much as possible. (d) Do our best to use the water again.(e) Drink and use all the water on the earth's surface.A.(c)and(e)B.(a)and(d)C.(a),(c)and(d)D.(b),(d)and(e)( ) 49.The best but the most difficult way to solve (解决) the water problem of the world is to .A. remove the salt from sea waterB. make the water in cities cleanC. take water from undergroundD. make the need for water smaller( ) 50. What's the best title (标题) for this passage?A. The Importance of the WaterB. The World's Water ProblemC. The Thirsty WorldD. Fresh Water and Sea Water九年级英语阅读竞赛答题卷班级:_________ 姓名:_________分数:________温馨提示:本试卷满分100分,考试时间为90分钟。
