一、初三英语阅读理解(含答案详细解析)
1.根据短文内容出选择正确答案。
B
Do you want to live a happier, less stressful life? Try laughing for no reason at all. That's how thousands of people start their day at Laughter (笑声)Clubs around the world and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.
The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria. "Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day," says Dr. Kataria. "Everyone is naturally good at laughing-it's the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives." There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over l,300 in the world.
Many doctors are also interested in the effects (效果) of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.
So what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest, I wasn't interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha.” while looking at each other. However, our bodies can't tell the difference between real laughter and unreal laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects.
Surprisingly, it worked! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real and some people just couldn't stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed-and comfortable I felt. So if you're under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!

2.根据短文理解选择正确答案。
C
If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person.
A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations. They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo (舒缓的节拍).
“Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve (神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added.
The volunteers said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.
Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart's violin pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.

4.阅读理解
It's hard to turn down a tasty banana. They taste good and you don't have to wash them before eating them. However, British scientists say that the fruit may disappear by 2050.
One reason for this is climate(气候) change. Scientists at the University of Exeter collected data(数据)from 27 countries and regions that produce 86 percent of the world's bananas. They found that climate change has improved growing conditions in 21 of these countries. In the past 60 years, the average yield(平均产量) has reached 1.37 tons of bananas per hectare(公顷).
However, if temperatures keep rising, this advantage will disappear. Ten of the countries, including India, the world's biggest producer of bananas, will produce fewer bananas. By 2050, the fruit may die out.
Shouldn't bananas grow more easily if it's hotter outside? In fact, the perfect temperature range for growing bananas is between 24 and 32 C. If temperatures get too high, they will stop growing.
Diseases are another danger to bananas. Unlike other crops, the bananas we grow come from shoot cuttings(茎段)rather than seeds. This means that all banana plants have the same genotype(基因型). In other words, if a disease is able to kill one plant, it could kill them all.
One serious disease is called Panama. Caused by fungus(真菌) in the soil, it spreads easily. It has spread across South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Australia. If one banana plantation(种植园)suffers from the disease, it will take 30 years until it is able to grow bananas again. Scientists have yet to find a cure for this disease.
(1)What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. People's love for bananas.
B. The taste of bananas.
C. The convenience of eating bananas.
D. The future disappearance of bananas.
(2)What might happen if temperatures keep going higher?
A. More countries will start to grow bananas.
B. Bananas will grow better in most countries.
C. Bananas will not be able to grow any more.
D. Bananas won't be as tasty as before.
(3)What does Paragraph 5 tell us?
A. What diseases bananas may suffer from.
B. How bananas are grown.
C. How diseases can easily kill bananas.
D. Which diseases can kill bananas.
(4)The passage is written to ________.
A. offer tips for growing bananas
B. explain why bananas may die out
C. show the difficulties of growing bananas
D. describe bananas' growing conditions
【答案】(1)D
(2)C
(3)C
(4)B

(1)推断题。
根据前句However, British scientists say that the fruit may disappear by 2050.可知介绍了香蕉可能消失的原因,所以this代指香蕉消失,故选D。
(2)细节题。
根据However, if temperatures keep rising, this advantage will disappear. Ten of the countries, including India, the world's biggest producer of bananas, will produce fewer bananas. By 2050, the fruit may die out可知温度持续上升,香蕉将更少,最终可能消失,即不能生长,故选C。
(3)细节题。
根据Diseases are another danger to bananas.可知疾病是香蕉的另一个危险,即疾病是怎样杀死香蕉的,故选C。
(4)主旨题。
根据全文可知主要讲了香蕉可能消失的原因,故选B。

5.阅读理解
Everybody hates rats. But rats may soon be man's new good friends. What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can't get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.
How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat's brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat's brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.
Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Robots' noses don't work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that. Rats can also see in the dark, they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don't need
electricity!
The "rat project" is not finished. But a scientist says, "It would be great. A rat could get into any place we couldn't get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe." Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).
(1)Where do you think you can find this passage?
A. In a magazine about toys.
B. In a history book.
C. In a newspaper about science.
D. In an advertisement.
(2)Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A. Rats don't need electricity.
B. Rats are better than robots when smelling.
C. Rats are as clever as radios.
D. Rats can see things in the dark when doing rescues.(3)Why does the "rat project" sound great according to the passage?
A. Because rats can get into very small spaces.
B. Because rats have better noses than dogs.
C. Because rats don't like robots.
D. Because rats are brave.
(4)Which is the best title of this passage?
A. Ways of saving people
B. Rats
C. Earthquakes
D. Rats for rescue
【答案】(1)C

The phenomenon (现象) of a bike rider getting hit by an opening car door is so common that it has its own term: dooring.
According to a study in Chicago, as many as 1 in 5 bike accidents are caused by car doors—in total, there is nearly one dooring each day in the Windy City (Chicago).
Even when the bike riders try to turn to the other direction to escape from the opening doors, they can end up getting hit by cars.
Then how can we reduce such kind of accidents? Is there any practical way to solve that problem? Yes. It's the Dutch Reach, which has been popular on the Internet recently. The Dutch Reach is a practice where instead of using your near hand—usually the driver's left hand—to open your car door, you use your far hand—your right hand.
By doing that, you will turn your body around. And you turn your head and shoulders back, so you are looking directly out. First, pass the rearview mirror. And then, you are very easily able to look back and see if there are coming bicycles or cars or anything else. The simplicity of the approach is part of its intelligence.
(1)What is dooring?
A. The opening of the car door.
B. The accidents caused by opening the car door.
C. That bike riders are hit by opening car doors.
D. The accidents that happened in the Windy City.
(2)__________ of bike accidents are caused by dooring according to the study.
A. 1%
B. 5%
C. 20%
D. 25%
(3)Which hand do you use to open the door in the Dutch Reach?
A. The left hand if I am the driver.
B. The right hand if I am the driver.
C. The right hand if I sit at the back.
D. The right hand if I sit next to the driver.
(4)What does the underlined phrase "rearview mirror" mean in Chinese?
A. 门把手
B. 雨刮器
C. 后视镜
D. 挡风玻璃【答案】(1)C
(2)C
(3)B
(4)C

(2)理解计算题。
根据文中的语句According to a study in Chicago, as many as 1 in 5 bike accidents are caused by car doors—in total, there is nearly one dooring each day in the Windy City (Chicago).理解可知,根据芝加哥的一项研究,多达五分之一的自行车事故是由车门引起的,也就是20%,故选C。
(3)细节理解题。
根据文中的语句The Dutch Reach is a practice where instead of using your near hand—usually the driver's left hand—to open your car door, you use your far hand—your right hand.理解可知,在这种练习中,司机要用右手而不是左手去开门,故选B。
(4)词义推测题。
