Then she gets married to him and becomes a princess. But what if the girl was clever or strong instead of beautiful? What if she wanted to be an astronaut, a politician or a pirate instead of a princess? And what if she didn’t need a prince to do it? That’s the idea behind the book Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls. It’s a book of fairy tales with a difference: All the stories are true.The book tells the stories of one hundred amazing women from 1500 BC to today. But the stories aren’t just boring biographies. Instead, they’re like fairy tales. You probably won’t know the names of most of the women, but when you finish reading, you’ll ask yourself why. Sometimes, it’s because people tried to remove them from history. Like Hatshepsut, one of the most important queens of Egypt. After she died, some men broke her statues and removed her name from documents. Other times, it’s because a man’s name became more famous. For example, Charles Babbage is called “the father of computing” but a woman, Ada Lovelace, wrote the first computer programme.Why haven’t we l earned about these women before? Often history remembers men more than women. If you close your eyes and think of a war hero and a pilot, you will probably think of men. If you read the book, those pictures might start to become women of all colours and ages. The women in the book did things because they wanted to and they didn’t listen when people told them not to.One problem with the book, unluckily, is its name, because it gives the idea that it’s a book for girls. It’s a great idea to show young girls what women can do. But the stories are also interesting for boys to read. And it’s also important that boys can think of women in jobs like doctors, F1 race car drivers and presidents.1. Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls ______ .A. tells the same story as fairy tales doB. tells stories about marriages of princessesC. tells true stories about amazing womenD. tells stories about pretty women in history2. In the second paragraph, the writer took Ada Lovelace as an example to show that ______ .A. Charles Babbage’s name was more famousB. some people wanted to remove her from history3. The underlined word “remove” in the passage means ______ .A. reportB. createC. recordD. cancel4. In the writer’s opinion, ______ .A. the characters in the book weren’t beautifulB. it is also a good book for boysC. girls should be like the characters in the bookD. the book has a wonderful name5. The passage may be ______ .A. a book reviewB. an advertisementC. a guidebookD. a news reportCSome Chinese scientists have been “pulling their hair out” these days. In other words, something is causing them to feel very upset.What is it? Clearly, hair loss.Recently, the phrase “hair loss” has been popular among young people in China. A recent report on overall health showed that hair loss was ranked sixth among top health matters, following bad skin conditions, depression (忧郁) and anxiety, poor sleep, digestive tract (消化道) discomfort and illness.But hair loss isn’t just a matter for Chinese youth. It is an embarrassing reality for many people in China and the world over. According to a survey, 56% of the respondents from more than 600 universities across China said they suffered from hair loss. Another report from the China Association of Health Promotion and Education believed that 250 million Chinese people are plagued by hair loss, most of them between 20 and 40 years old. In the United States, about one in five people is suffering from hair loss.There isn’t really any single reason for hair loss. Humans naturally lose about 50 to 100 hairs each day, which usually grow again later. However, genetic (遗传的) and environmental factors can mean, for some people, these lost hairs won’t grow again. Besides, certain factors can further worsen hair loss, including too much stress from work or school, too little sleep, and a bad diet.Is there anything you can do to protect your remaining hair? There are many products out there ready to help you keep a full head of hair. Shampoos, lotions, surgery, even laser helmets say they can help. Hair loss treatments represent a $ 3.6 billion industry in the United States alone. While many of these products make promises about their advantages of restoring your hair, the reality is that fixing your hair loss will finally depend on finding the specific causes. If it is due to stress, lack of sleep, or poor nutrition, then a lifestyle change might not only stop hair loss, but also restart the growth of hair.For most young people who want to protect their receding (后退) hairlines, it starts with their personal health, All they need to do is change unhealthy living habits and pay more attention to their psychological well-being (心理健康), And for those scientists, they should take it easy, in case their stress turns them into victims of hair loss too!1. According to the passage, the main factors that lead to hair loss include ______ .①genetic factors电②environmental factors③taking medicine too much ④unhealthy living habits⑤poor psychological well-beingA. ①②③④B. ①②③⑤C. ②③④⑤D. ①②④⑤2. The underlined words “pulling their hair out” mean ______ .A. making their hair grow out againB. pulling their hair out of their head skinC. cutting off their hairD. replacing their hair with other products3. What is the writer’s suggestion to most young people who want to protect their airlines?A. To use hair growth products.B. To exercise more.C. To change their lifestyle.D. To eat more nutritious food.4. What can we know according to the passage?B. “Hair loss” matter is ranked before digestive tract discomfort.C. Young people in China are the only group suffering from hair loss.D. About 20% of people are suffering from hair loss in the United States.5. What’s the best title for the passage?A. How to treat hair lossB. Thinking about hair lossC. Top health mattersD. The importance of healthy living habitsDHave you ever climbed a tree? When was the last time you took a walk in a park? When you’re busy with schoolwork, it can be hard to find time to spend outdoors. However, this can actually be bad for your health. Spending time in nature can create future health benefits.However, kids today are spending less time outdoors than previous generations. Recent research shows that kids today spend half the time playing outside that their parents did when they were children. The Seattle Children’s Research Institute found that children only spend about 12 minutes of active outdoor play each day.Yet a new study has found that spending time outdoors is important for a child’s development, not only rig ht now, but well into their future. Researchers at the Aarhus University in Denmark discovered that kids who spend more time playing outside during their childhood are less likely to develop mental disorders(精神紊乱) later in life.The researchers noted a link between a lack of green space and a higher risk of developing a mental disorder. After surveying more than 900, 000 people, the researchers found that spending time in nature and keeping in touch with the outdoors helped to improve a child’s chances of growing up to be mentally healthy.The researchers mapped the amount of “green space” around the homes of 1 million Danes (丹麦人) who were born between 1985 and 2003. They compared this data with the risk of developing one of 16 different mental disorders l ater in life. They found that among people who grow up in “green” areas, 55 per cent are less likely to develop mental disorders in adulthood.The World Health Organization thinks that more than 450 million people around the world have some kind of mental disorder. But spending time outdoors might be good for them.Having more green space in a particular area means there are probably fewer roads and less pollution. This gives more chances for people to exercise and interact (互动) with each other. Simply being in a green area can help people relax and release pressure. “All of these factors can have an active influence on mental health,” lead scientist Kristine Engemann told Science Daily.Why is playing outside so important for kids? Not only does it offer opportunities for physical exercise, but it might also improve socialization as kids meet new friends and connect with their neighbours. It also offers the opportunity for unstructured play, which has been shown to be useful for kids. This type of play—games in which kids make up the rules and create their own fun (even if it’s as simple as jumping on a trampoline)—can even help a child’s brain development.The benefits of natureImprove short-term memoryFresh air and a quiet environment help people focus, as well as improve their memory.Good for your eyesSpending two hours a day outdoors can prevent near-sightedness.Improve creativitySpending time outside helps people relax. The mind becomes clearer and more open.1. The passage leads in the topic by ______ .A. giving examplesB. asking questionsC. expressing opinionsD. comparing two generationsA. Kids today spend half their time playing outside.B. “Green place” means “green garden” around your house.C. In Denmark, 55% of children are likely to have mental disorders in adulthood.D. Kids with more time playing outside will probably have less mental disorders.3. What does the underlined word “They” refer to in the fifth paragraph?A. The researchers.B. The green places.C. The people with mental disorders.D. Danes who were born between 1985 and 2003.4. Paragraph 8 mainly talks about ______ for kids.A. the importance of playing outsideB. the advantage of unstructured playC. the choice of playing games outsideD. the way of developing a child’s brain5. From the diagram, we know for kids, playing outside can ______ .A. help them think of more questionsB. improve their long term memoryC. stop near-sightedness happeningD. make them invent lots of things三、任务型阅读AHow to Make the Time for Your Personal Goals One of the biggest challenges in trying to achieve any personal goal is that we want to put it off until tomorrow, or next week, in order to finish more important things at work and home. Maybe the following can help you find the time for your personal goals.1. Make one goal at a timeOften the problem is that you try to make too many goals at a time. You have a list of things you want to finish and because of that you never start. It ‘s very difficult to pay attention to too many goals at a time. So catching one goal at a time is enough.2. Be sure you really want itIt’s not enough to say “It would be nice to learn French” or “It would be cool to do yoga (瑜伽) every morning”. It has to be something you really want. Ask yourself why you want to achieve this goal, and how much you want it.3. Show that you’re seriousTell as many pe ople as you can about your goal. Write down your goal carefully. If you can’t even write it down, you re not serious. Then write out a plan, with dates and actions. Think about problems, and write down your ways to solve them. The plan shows you re serious.4. Make it your top taskYou all have many things to do in your lives, from school or work to family. If you put all these first, you won’t ever find the time for your goal. Instead, if you make your goal your top task, you’ll make the time.With these steps, your goals surely will come true.BYour smartphone may seem like the centre of your entertainment, but a Kent State University study shows that too much phone use is taking the fun right out of our spare time.Researchers watched a group of 500 students and recorded their daily smartphone use. Those who were considered in the”high use”group experienced more stress during their spare time than the other group.So what can we do in order to really take advantage of our spare time? We have collected the following activities that also take a f ew hours to complete, but the best part of all, you’ll improve your health in the process.Whether you’re at home or on holiday, it’s important to disconnect(断开) from the Wi-Fi. Walking in nature can do good to your health. As a professional (职业的) travell er, Samantha Brown put it in a recent passage, “I put my map in my back pocket, put down my phone and take a good, long walk. Just walk around.”Go to bed earlier. What can help improve your moods? Extra sleep, naturally. Getting the right amount of sleep is very important to our health and studies show that we don’t get enough of it.Read a book. And let yourself get lost in a good story. Research shows that reading can reduce stress, keep your brain sharp and can even help you sleep better. Everyone should spend at least 30 minutes reading every day.Putting pen to paper is good exercise. Try writing down your thoughts. Writing has a lot of health advantages. Besides, writing down your thoughts may even help clear your mind.根据短文内容, 回答下列问题。

ADifferent countries have different customs in giving presents.In China you must never give a clock to a Chinese person，because the sound of the word for “clock” is similar to the sound of “death”. Also，don't wrap a present in white，black or blue paper，because they are the colors for funerals(葬礼).Don't give a knife，because something sharp can cut a friendship.In Russia if you give flowers as presents, you have to give an odd number of them (one，three，five，etc.) because even numbers of flowers are for funerals.In Germany if you are invited to dinner，flowers are good presents to take to your dinner hostess, but don't take her red roses because it means you are in love with her. Don't take thirteen of anything because it's an unlucky number. Don't take an even number of anything, either. Don't wrap your presents in white, brown, or black paper.( )1.

Women，men and even children can shake hands. Shaking hands also seems simple，but there are some important things to remember. When you shake hands，you must look into the other person's eyes the whole time you're shaking hands.Shake hands strongly. If you give a weak handshake，the other person might think that you're not kind. He / She might also feel that you don't like him / her or you don't want to touch him / her. Shake hands with men and women the same way. If you shake hands with a very old person or a small child，be careful not to hurt them.Some people don't know how long to keep shaking. The most common handshake should have three shakes and then you should let go. Don't worry if Americans shake hands a little longer.Your handshake is like your smile. It's special to you. You need to find a comfortable strong handshake that shows what you are like. Because the handshake allows people to touch，the hand should be warm，clean and dry.Warm：Put your hands into your pockets before you shake hands. This will warm them. Clean：If you know you're going to meet someone，wash your hands so they'll be clean. Dry：Everyone gets nervous and your hands may get wet. It isn't a good feeling for the other person. Again，put your hands into your pockets. This will dry them.( )6. When you stay in the USA，the common way to greet is to ________.A. bowB. kissC. hugD. shake hands( )7.

It is also known as the “Shopping Paradise(天堂)” because there are a lot of department stores and huge shopping centers. Therefore, it’s not surprising that many tourists come to visit Shanghai every year for shopping.People’s Square is known as the center of Shanghai. If you go there, you will see a huge open area with green grass, fountains(喷泉) and pigeons(鸽子). There are many new buildings around. You will find Shanghai Grand Theater, the Musical Hall and Shanghai Museum there.If you go to Pudong New District in the east of Shanghai, you will see the Nanpu Bridge. It’s 8,364 meters long.

When you are in different countries, you should follow the customs there. In China, you are not supposed to start eating first if there are older people at the table.Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip. It is usual to tip waiters, taxi drivers and porters who help carry your bags at a train station, an airport or in a hotel. Waiters expect to get a fifteen percent tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.In England, you can see people standing in line almost everywhere, at the bus stop, in a bank, in the post office, in the doctor's waiting room and so on. So when you are in the UK, make sure to wait in a queue even if there are only two of you. It's a good idea to talk about the weather there. It's a favorite subject of conversations with the British.In Spain, it's a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late, and restaurants do not usually open until 9:00 p.m.In Saudi Arabia, men kiss one another on the cheek(脸颊).Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite for you to do the same.In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don't put it into your pocket soon. The person expects you to read it before you put it away.Don't forget to be careful of your body language when you express something in conversations.

Some ways to celebrate birthdays are rather similar from country to country: candles, cake and birthday wishes. But there are also different ways to celebrate birthdays. Here are a few:DenmarkA flag is flown outside a window to show that people in that house are having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child’s bed while he is sleeping so he will see them at once when he wakes up.IndiaUsually Indian children wear white to school. However, on their birthday children wear colored clothes to school and give out chocolates to everyone in the class. Their best friend helps them to do this.JapanThe birthday child wears new clothes to mark the special time. Certain birthdays are more important than others. These are the third and seventh birthdays for girls and the fifth for boys. HollandThe birthday child receives an especially large present. The family also put flowers on the birthday child’s chair to make it beautiful.()21.When someone is having a birthday in Denmark, you can see outside the window.A.flowersB.presentsC.a flagD.a chair()22.In flowers are put on the chair of the birthday child.A.JapanB.DenmarkC.IndiaD.Holland()23.In Japan, the birthday is more important for boys when they are .A.15B.7C.5D.3()24.According to the passage, .A.all kids put on new clothes on their birthdayB.gifts are put under a kid’s bed before his birthday in DenmarkC.in India chocolates are given to the birthday kid on his birthdayD.an especially big gift will be sent to the kid on his birthday in Holland()25.The passage is mainly about .A.similar ways of celebrating birthdays in some countriesB.different ways of celebrating birthdays in some countriesC.children’s birthdays in Western countriesD.the importance of children’s birthdaysFIn the USA, it is normal for men to shake hands when they meet, but it is quite unusual for men to kiss when they greet each other. Greetings are casual—a handshake, a smile and a “hello” will do just fine.The British often simply say “hello” when they meet friends. They usually shake hands only when they meet for the first time. Social kissing, often just a peck(轻吻) on the cheek, is common in an informal(非正式的) situation between men and women and also between women who know each other very well.In Japan, the common greeting for both men and women is to bow when they greet someone, instead of giving a handshake or a hug.Hungarians like to greet in a friendly way—kiss each other on both cheeks. The most common way is to kiss from your right to your left. When men meet for the first time, a handshake is the norm.In Albania, men shake hands when greeting one another. A kiss on the cheek may also be common if there is a close relationship. Women may shake hands or kiss each other on both cheeks.In Armenia, by tradition, a woman needs to wait for a man to offer his hand for a handshake. Between good friends and family members, a kiss on the cheek and a hug are also common.()26.In Britain, when two people meet for the first time, they usually .A.hugB.bowC.shake handsD.kiss on the cheek()27.The underlined word “norm” in Paragraph 4 means “” in Chinese.A.规范B.意图C.象征D.结果()28.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.In Japan, hugging is as common as bowing.B.In Hungary, people usually kiss each other on the cheeks from left to right.C.In Albania, it is unusual for men to kiss if there is a close relationship.D.In Armenia, it is necessary for a woman to wait for a man to offer his hand for a handshake.()29.How many countries are mentioned in the passage?A.Four.B.Five.C.Six.D.Seven.()30.What’s the best title of the passage?A.Country and CultureB.Culture and PeopleC.Greeting Customs Around the WorldD.Body Language in Different CulturesGWhen was the last time you gave or received a hug? Do your parents hug you before you go to school? In Western countries, it is quite common to greet close friends or relatives with a hug.You might hug your teammates after winning a basketball game. If one of your friends is having a bad day, you can hug them to cheer them up. Friends who haven’t seen each other for a long time will usually hug each other when meeting.Of course, people in different countries have different opinions when it comes to hugging. After coming to China, I’ve noticed that people are generally more reluctant(不情愿的) to hug than they are in my home country, the US.My Chinese friends told me that hugging is considered to be very intimate(亲密的) in their culture. It usually only happens between people who are really close to each other, like couples. Chinese people don’t usually hug in public, either.But people’s attitudes(态度) towards hugging can also change. I remember watching a video story about a “hugging party” that was held in Shanghai. A local artist held the party, inviting strangers and asking them to hug each other.The Chinese participants(参与者) clearly looked uncomfortable. However, after the party, several of them changed their minds. They decided that hugging doesn t have to be awkward(尴尬的) and can actually be quite nice. So next time you see your mom or dad, give them a hug—see how it makes you feel.()31.What usually happens between good friends when meeting in Western countries?A.Hugging.B.Nodding.C.Shaking hands.D.Smiling.()32.The second paragraph tells us .A.the advantages of hugging each otherB.some situations in which people hug each otherC.the reasons why friends need to hug each otherD.how to cheer up our friends()33.In Chinese culture, hugs usually happen between .A.friendsB.classmatesC.couplesD.relatives()34.What did people do at the “hugging party”?A.They were invited to hug each other.B.They watched a video about hugging.C.They told stories about hugging.D.They listened to music about hugging. ()35.The writer wrote the last paragraph to .A.encourage people to be nice to strangersB.explain why people feel uncomfortable while huggingC.show how people can change their minds about huggingD.encourage people to love their parentsHVanuatu is an island nation in the South Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those who are interested in adventure and sports, there is a lot to do. Vanuatu’s islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano(火山) surfing and land diving.V olcano SurfingOn Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts(爆发) almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it’s very different. V olcano surfers try to escape from the volcano—without getting hit by flying rocks! It’s fast, fun and dangerous—the perfect extreme sport(极限运动).Land DivingMost people are familiar with bungee jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old?

九年级初三英语课外阅读理解期末专项练习10篇【附答案】
九年级初三英语课外阅读理解期末专项练习10篇【附答案】1The 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.

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.

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 students 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. AndI 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.

The writer takes an example to show he is _______ the way the 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 CBACD22:06 On TV next week11.

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.

Barnard’s Star moves more quickly than ________.A. most starsB. any other starC. its planetD. the planets round the sun20. How can people know that there is a planet round Barnard’s Star?A. 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 BCBBA5We were going to play against a team from a country school.They didn’t come until the last minute. They looked worse than 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 aboy 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.

It has greatly changed with thedevelopment of society.Walking was the main way until humans used animals to carry things. More than 5, 000 years ago people made the wheel successfully. This made it possible for animals to pull carts. People can travel faster. They also traveled by water, at first with simple wooden boat.The steam engine (蒸汽机) was invented in the 1700s. It was an important thing in transportation history and it led the transportation into the modern times. Steam-powered boats and ships could easily travel without wind. On land, inventors used it to drive trains. This made railroads develop fast. The late 1800s saw the first successful bicycles and cars. This made quick and easy transportation possible to more people than ever before. People who bought cars needed more and better roads.In 1903 Wilbur and Orville Wright flew the world’s first plane. The invention of the jet engine in the1940s made air travel the fastest transportation in history.The development of transportation has brought problems, however. Traffic jams, accidents and air pollution are becoming more and more serious. Choosing a green way to travel may be a thing we can do for the earth. Let’s do it!任务A：补全第1—4题的信息。

"What's the matter？" "I went to a party last night, so I…"2. "I feel so tired these days."" I think you'd better…"3."Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…"Y ou can see from the above three examples that the context (上下文) helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about.

A round table is put in a garden, and on the table is a piece of blue cardboard（硬纸版）with a drop of syrup （糖浆）on it. After a short time, bees come to the syrup. The bees then fly to their hive（蜂房）and give the syrup to other bees in the hive. Then they return to the feeding-place which they have found. After a while, the blue cardboard with the syrup on it is taken away. Instead of this card, ablue card is now put on the left side of the first feeding-place and a red card to its right. These new cards have no syrup on them. V ery soon bees arrive again, and fly straight to the blue card. None go to the red card.Picture 11. How many cards do you need to prepare for the experiment?A. Two: one blue and one redB. Three: two blue and one redC. Three: one blue and two redD. Four: two blue and two red2.

They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比较）them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.1. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space2. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because __________.A. the weather satellites can do it easilyB. clouds form thereC. the weather forms thereD. the pictures can forecast the weather3. Meteorologists forecast the weather __________.A. when they have received satellite picturesB. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier onesC. before they received satellite picturesD. during they study satellite pictures4. Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for ________.A. one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longer5. The main（主要的）idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in _________.A. taking pictures of the atmosphereB. receiving pictures of the atmosphereC. doing other work in many waysD. weather forecastingKeys: 1-5 ACBDD（13）In almost every big university（大学）in the United States, football is a favourite sport. American football is different. Players sometimes kick the ball, but they also throw the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances（机会）to move the ball ten yards（码）. They can carry it or they can throw it. If they move the ball ten yards, they can try to move it another ten yards. If they move it to the end of the field, they receive six points （点）.It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the ball. If he does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball the other team.Each university wants its own team to win. Many thousands of people come to watch. They all shout for their favourite team.Y oung men and women come on the field to help the people shout more. They dance and jump while they shout.Each team plays ten or eleven games each season.The season begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends. The best teams play again on January 1, the first day of the New Y ear.

If you have your goals, this gives you a reason to stick to your plan. For example, if someone asks you to buy a new car, you can say, “Thanks, but I already have a car, so you don’t need to give me some information about cars.”Be polite but firm(坚定) in saying NO. For example, the sentence, “I’ll try to be there” is a good reply to a party invitation. This can give you an excuse not to go to the party.When your superior(上司) asks you to do a new task, you can remind her / him that you are working on other projects.Some experts advise keeping your answer short.

Brown clouds, polluted water, endangered wild animals, these problems seem so huge.So my family does what we can. We take cloth bags to stores instead of using plastic bags. We walk where we don't have to drive...But does it do any good? When I am the only one in line at the market with cloth bags, am I doing any good? Does my walking to stores make any real difference to the world?I recently learned something about flamingos which like to get together in groups of a thousand or more. Every year, when the time comes for migration, a few of them first take off from the lake. But none of the others seem to notice, so the small group returns.However, the next day they try again. This time few more fly along with them, but most of them still pay no attention, so they return again. They try for several times. Every time a few more birds join in but, since the thousands of others still take no notice, the great migration plan is once more stopped.Then one day something changes. The same small group of birds once again starts flying and a small number more join in just as before, then more. Finally, they all take flight and the migration really begins.What a spectacular sight it must be — thousands of flamingos taking off into the sky at once!A few can make a difference. Even if you're the one to take the first step, and continue trying, others will someday take notice and together we will solve even our greatest problems.1.

Some students may have to deal with exam stress, while others may find it difficult to get along well with others. However, many students in Ipswich Middle School in Massachusetts had a wonderful day because of some notes on their lockers.On March 6, 149 students in Grade 8 walked into school in the morning just like any other day. Then everyone was surprised to find a handwritten note, reading “You are beautiful”, on each of their lockers. All the eighth graders felt excited and “were like little kids at Christmas” according to their teachers. One student named Charlize Vermaak said he just couldn’t stop smiling after reading the k ind-hearted note. Some of the students even moved the notes on to lockers of other students who needed support and kindness very much.Most of the students and teachers didn’t know who did the sweet thing. A teacher named Christina Ciarametaro said the note writer asked for her permission before taking actions. According to Ms. Ciarametaro, the person spent more than one hour and a half writing the notes by hand before posting them around the school. School headmaster, Dave Fabrizio, believed the name of the note writer was not important.“If each child looks at it in a different way and says ‘Somebody cares about me’ or ‘I’m going to have a better day because of it’, the message will be all you need,” said Mr. Fabrizio.1.

A robot called Wall-E is left alone to clean up the trash. He begins his work each day. He has only one friend, a cockroach called Hal.Wall-E is lonely. He collects strange items of trash. He then uses them to decorate his home. He watches an old videotape over and over again. The tape has taught Wall-E about holding hands and falling in love. He dreams of meeting someone special.One day Wall-E's life changes. A spacecraft lands on the dirty planet and brings an egg-shaped robot named Eva.

Probably not. The excitement of living is that you don't know what's coming.Sure, it's hard to see uncertainty in such active light when you're out of work, or when you feel like you're failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance.When Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chances all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting, but she knew she wouldn't stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income by teaching students. Still, she didn't think she wanted to go to graduate school. Allison knew she wasn't doing what she wanted, but she didn't know what she wanted.She worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest, and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent, and time we must all take if we're being honest with ourselves.The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty and make a choice. Otherwise your life is not your own ─ it is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, and when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesn't end there. Every new role we take on means another round of uncertainty. Instead of fearing it, you should find some ways to deal with uncertainty1. From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that .A. being out of work is a sad thingB. uncertainty is what makes life interestingC. life in a film is more exciting than real lifeD. chance never appears when we need it2. What troubles Allison after graduation?A. She couldn't find a well-paid job.B. She had no money to start a business.C. She was not sure what to do.D. She didn't score high enough for graduate school.3. How did Allison feel about her six years' working experience?A. UncertainB. AmazedC. SorryD. Satisfied4. What may be discussed in the following paragraph?A. How to deal with uncertainty.B. What role uncertainty plays in life.C. Why people fear uncertainty.D. Whom to go to when facing uncertainty.答：BCDAHWhat is the first thing that co mes into your mind when you hear the word “Dubai”? The first 7-star hotel in the world?

The passage tells us______.A. try your best when you face difficultiesB. you’d better not turn to others for helpC. people like to help those who are kindD. there are always some people who aren’t helpful答：BCDAADo you know how to be green?We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.ReduceReduce means “use less”. Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary — or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.ReuseReuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup of a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.RecycleRecycle means “change things into something else”. Though it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and take part in recycling programs. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.So please remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.1. The passage is about______.A. How to produce things.B. How to recycle things.C. How to help others.D. How to be green.2. Which of the following is RIGHT?A. Don’t waste things.B. Always throw away old things.C. Always buy new things.D. Buy too many things from abroad.3. It is better to use a china cup and a lunch box because______.A. you can recycle them.B. You can use them again.C. You can throw them away.D. You can change them into something else.4. To protect the environment, we should remember these three words: _______.A. waste, reuse and recycleB. repair, burn and recycleC. reduce, waste and recycleD. reduce, reuse and recycle5. The passage may come from a______.A. magazineB. dictionaryC. storybookD. menu答：DABDAWe can realize that Chinese TV programs have close connections with Korean entertainment.

九年级英语上册阅读理解10篇人教版(含答案)
九年级英语上册阅读理解10篇【一】Since the start of COVID-19, many people have been stuck(困住的) indoors.Online classes and working from home mean sitting around a lot.We already know that if we don’t move much, we get fatter, we get heart problems and maybe we get diabetes(糖尿病). But new studies have shown that it could be bad for our mind, too.A study of 937 American adults during COVID-19 found that about one-third of them sat around for more than 10 hours per day. It reported that people who sat for too long often showed more symptoms of depression(抑郁的症状).Another study studied children aged 12, 14 and 16. It found that the longer they sat, the higher depression scores they would get by age 18. According to the study, if eighteen-year-old children sat too often, they had depression scores 28 percent higher than those who were more active.Scientists are not sure yet about the connection between too much sitting and depression. But an expert named Mats Hallgren said, “sitting for too long can slow blood flow(流动) in the body including blood flow to the brain. It might also influence the growth of neurons(神经细胞) in the brain. And couch potatoes might do other unhealthy things while sitting on the sofa, such as eating on junk food. All these may lead to depression.”Is there any good news? It’s easy to deal with the problem. Aaron Kandola from University College London, UK, said “all kinds” of movement might help, even light activity.“It is great to exercise and play sports,” said Kandola. “But anything you can do to avoid sitting for too long will help with mood(情绪), stress and thinking clearly.” The key message is just to move more, more often.（）1. What will probably happen if we don’t move much?A. We will become heavier.B. We will be healthier.C. We will feel relaxed.（）2. According to the study, _______ American adults sat around for more than 10 hours a day during COVID-19.A. about 200B. About 300C. About 500（）3. What might “couch potatoes”mean in paragraph 5?A. 沙发上的土豆B. 血液流动迅速的人C. 坐在沙发上懒得动的人（）4. What can we learn from the passage?A.Sitting for too long is good for teenagers’health.B. More exercise might make people happy and think clearly.C. It’s difficult to solve the problems caused by sitting for too long.（）5. What’s the purpose(目的) of the text?A. To encourage people to move more often.B. To introduce the symptoms of depression.C. To explain the reason why people sit too often.【二】“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade(柠檬汁).” This is a common saying in English and it encourages positive attitude(积极的态度). Lemons tastes very sour. However, by adding water and sugar to them, you will be able to enjoy a delicious drink.Because of COVID-19, life has given you a lot of lemons lately. It’s autumn time. Nature is fascinating and the weather is cool. You should be outside playing. But if you do that these days, you will probably become ill. You have no choice but to stay indoors. So, what should you do? Just sit there and eat lemons, or learn how to make lemonade?Home quarantine(居家隔离) is giving people the chance to do things that they didn’t have time to do before, such as reading, learning to cook, taking up their hobbies and spending more time with families. For younger people, the home quarantine could also be a chance to learn an important life lesson directly: While life can be difficult at times, it can still be enjoyed if you have the right attitude.There are some things you can do to keep a positive attitude. First, stay healthy. Don’t stay up late or sleep too long. And do some exercise every day. Second, make a time plan for study and hobbies, or just some quiet time for yourself. Third, care about others. Your parents may have much stress these days, so don’t make their lives any more difficult by, for example, arguing with them.The pandemic(疫情) will finally end, but you will always remember it as a big event in your life. Hopefully, it will make you and all of China’s younger people stronger and more positive so that you will forever be known as the “lemonade” generation(一代), and not the “sour” one.（）1. How does the writer start the text?A. By giving some suggestions.B.By telling his experience.C. By explaining a saying.（）2. In the writer’s eyes, the underlined word “lemons”in paragraph 2 means _______.A. fruitsB. troublesC. tricks（）3. Younger people could do the following things during home quarantine EXCEPT(除了) _______.A. exercising in the parkB. taking up new hobbiesC. learning an important life lesson（）4. To keep a positive attitude during of COVID-19, we can _______.A. study day and nightB. develop healthy living habitsC. care little about our parents（）5. What can you infer from the text?A. Like father, like son.B. An apple a day keeps a doctor away.C. Life is about learning to dance in the rain.【三】The two boys, Tom and Huck, hiding upstairs(楼上), were very frightened(惊吓的) because they worried about being found by Injun Joe and his friend. Through the hole in the floor, the two boys saw the men eat and talk. Then the men were tired and fell asleep. Tom and Huck lay there for a very long time. Finally, the two men woke up and lifted up a stone in the ground and took out some money they had stolen. Then Injun Joe lifted up another stone and found a box.“What’s this?” Injun Joe asked.The two men pulled the box out of the ground and opened it. The two boys,Tom and Huck, couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw there was much money in it. They were very excited.“There’s thousands of dollars in the box!” said his friend.“It must have been left here by Murrel,” said Injun Joe.“What will we do with it?”“We’ll take it to my hideout(隐匿处).”“Number one or number two?”“Number two, under the cross.”Then Injun Joe and his friend saw some tools in the corner and decided to go upstairs. But the stairs(楼梯) broke when Injun Joe stood on them! So the two men left the house and went towards the river. Tom went home as quickly as he could.The next day, the two boys remembered the “Number two”, thinking this must be the number of the room in the hotel. They got all the keys they could find anywhere. But Tom discovered the door was not locked. He opened it!—Adapted(改编) from The Adventure of Tom Sawyer （）1.Why were Tom and Huck very frightened?A. Because they worried about being found.B. Because they stole Injun Joe and his friend’s money.C. Because Injun Joe and his friend were looking for them.（）2.

From the story, we can know _______.A. Tom followed the men when Injun Joe and his friend left the house.B. Tom thought “Number two”was the number of the room in the hotel.C. Tom opened the door of the room in the hotel with the key that he found.【四】The natural world is colorful with humans, plants and animals showing different colors.Human skin can be many different colors and it changes with the sun, our feelings or our health. This is because of pigments(色素). And they reflect light and make what the eye sees as colors. So, when we feel excited or angry, our heart can send more blood to the face and the pigments in the skin become red. This is why we have the expression that someone “sees red” when they are angry.Plants also have pigments. Color is important for them to live on. The bright colors of flowers catch the attention of insects. And then they carry their pollen(花粉) from one flower to another. Bees(蜜蜂) can see colors humans cannot, and they follow these to the inside of the flower. Without bees visiting flowers in this way, many plants would die out.Animals also use colors for their own need. They protect themselves with different colors so that they won’t be seen by predators. Take the hare (a type of wild rabbit) for example. It changes colors with seasons for this reason. During summer it is a brown color, and in winter it is white so that it can hide in the snow. However, some animals use colors as a warning to make predators stay away. Bright colors such as yellow and red are often used in this way. Nature, however, is very clever, and predators also use colors to attract(吸引) the animals they feed on.So, we can see that there may be many different reasons and uses for colors in the natural world. Some uses of color in nature remain unknown, but one thing is for sure. Color not only makes our planet beautiful but it is also necessary for our planet to live on.（）1. Paragraph 2 mainly tells us that _______ cause(s) human skin to change color.A. healthB. pigmentsC. sunshine（）2. Flowers use _______ to attract bees, and bees carry _______ from one flower to another to make them live on.A. colors; leavesB. leaves; colorC. colors; pollen（）3.

They use colors to attract predators.C. They warn predators to stay away.（）5. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To describe animals’ways of life.B. To encourage us to study color in nature.C. To introduce the uses of colors for life on earth.【五】Finland lies in the northern part of Europe. It is not only the hometown of Santa Claus, but also rich ground for heavy metal (金属) music. For every 100,000 people, there are 70 metal bands, according to Medium. Every year, thousands of “metalheads” get together at Finland’s many metal festivals, especially during summer. In 2019, Finland held its first Heavy Metal Knitting (编织) Competition. Twelve groups from eight countries took part in it. Many music lovers don’t like heavy metal music because of its rudeness and loudness. But why does this form of music become so popular in Finland?Where you live makes you who you are. The cold and sometimes awful weather make the Finnish people become more and more interested in this heavier form of rock. “When someone is in the cold and dark environment for long periods of time, it is only natural that some form of depression (忧郁) will start to set in,” the website A Metal State Of Mind reported. “How do many Finns deal with this depression, and than metal.”According to Medium, most Finnish people are emotionally restrained (情感克制的). The Finns do not easily express their feelings when they talk. Whatever feelings — soft or hard — they feel, they keep them inside. For them, emotional introversion (内向性) is a form of behavior in Finland.“I feel that the introversion also has to do with the fact that we don’t want to tell personal secrets to others. It has not been socially acceptable to show great feelings, such as anger or sadness.” One has to appear ‘strong’ at all costs, “Ida-Katharina Kiljander, one of the lead singers of a metal band Mournful Lines, told Medium. “It is difficult to discuss our feelings, but still we need a way to deal with these anger or sadness.”（）1. How many heavy metal music bands took part in the Heavy Metal Knitting Competition in 2019?A. Seventy.B. Twelve.C. Eight.（）2. What does the underlined sentence Where you live makes you who you are. in paragraph 2 mean?A.一方水土养育一方人。
