They may have small talk at parties, while waiting in line at the store, at family events or work. It's a way to say hi and express friendliness.Small talk is very useful. It can avoid uncomfortable silences and build stronger relationship. For example, when you first meet someone or talk to someone you don't know well,you can break the ice by making small talk. Small talk with a colleague (同事)about his child may help you to understand more of his life outside the office.In 2013, researchers from the University of Essex asked some people to make small talk in a study. They found small talk can make people happier. People who talk briefly (短暂地)with a waiter in a coffee shop felt happier than those who simply went in, ordered and left.However, some people aren’t good at small talk.Here are some tips to improve your small-talking ability.Firstly, find common ground. When you have something similar with your speaking partner, that means you have something to talk about.Secondly, ask open-ended questions. They are suitable for small talk. For example, if you ask visitors whether they like your city, they may simply say "Yes." But if you ask "What do you think of our city," they will have more freedom in how they answer.Thirdly, become a student. Nobody knows everything. So, as someone is answering one of your open-ended questions, they bring up something about which you know nothing. So, tell them!This lets the other person become the teacher. They feel good about sharing their knowledge and you get to learn something. ▲ Finally, practice makes perfect. Like anything, getting good at making small talk takes practice.If you make small talk in your native language, you might become happier. If you are making small talk using English, you will most surely improve your speaking and listening skills.( )1. How many tips does the passage offer to improve the ability of small-talking?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.( )2. The study of the researchers from the University of Essex in 2013 is to find out .A. if people can make small talk with a waiterB. where people make small talkC. how small talk make people feelD. who people want to make small talk with( )3. Which of the following is an open-ended question?A. Do you like our city?B. Would you like to come to visit the museum?C. Can you help me with my English?D. What do you think of the movie?( )4. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ in Paragraph 7?A.It's never too old to learn.B. Sharing is caringC. It's a win-win situation.D. It's useful to be a student.BCarolyn R. Bertozzi and K.Barry Sharpless from Denmark shared the 2022 Nobel Prize from the United States and Morten Meldal in Chemistry“for the development of click chemistry and bio-orthogonal chemistry", the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced Wednesday.Sharpless and Meldal have laid the foundation(基础) for click chemistry, in which molecular(分子的)building blocks snap together quickly and efficiently. Bertozzi has taken click chemistry to a new dimension(维度)and started using it in living organisms (生物), the academy said in a statement.“This year's Prize in Chemistry deals with not ▲, instead working with what is easy and simple. Functional molecules can be built even by taking a simple way,”said Johan Aqvist, chair of the Nobel Committee for Chemistry.“I can hardly breathe!”Bertozzi said in the onsite telephone interview of her reactions. Of hearing the news in the middle of the night, she said, “A shock is an understatement(轻描淡写)!”Around the year 2000, Sharpless created the concept of click chemistry, which is a form of simple and reliable chemistry, where reactions happen quickly and unwanted by-products are avoided.* Shortly afterwards, Meldal and Sharpless separately offered click chemistry, a simple and helpful chemical reaction that is now in widespread use, such as in the development of medicine, for mapping DNA and creating materials that are more fit for purpose, the statement said.Bertozzi took click chemistry to a new level, said the statement. To map important but elusive (难以解释的) biomolecules on the surface of cells, she developed click reactions that work inside living things. Her bio-orthogonal reactions take place without disrupting the normal chemistry of the cell.Bertozzi, born in 1966 in the United States, is a professor at Stanford University in the United States. Meldal, born in 1954 in Denmark, is a professor at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. Sharpless, born in 1941 in the United States, is a professor at Scripps Research in the United States.This year's prize amount is 10million Swedish kronor (about $920,000), to be shared equally between the three prizewinners.1.Which of the following is TRUE?①Bertozzi started ig click chemistry in living organisms.②Sharpless has taken click chemistry to a new dimension.③Meldal played the most important role in the research.④Sharpless created the concept of click chemistry.A.①④B.②③C.①③D.③④2.Which of the following can be put into“”in Paragraph 3?A. new mattersB. difficult mattersC. important mattersD.challenging matters3.Why did Bertozzi said that she could hardly breathe?A. To describe her hard work.B. To show her serious illness.C.To express her deep shock.D. To explain her understatement.4.What do Paragraphs 6 and 7 mainly talk about?A. The practical value of click chemistry.B.The methods used to create click chemistry.C. The time when click chemistry was created.D.The place where they created click chemistry.5.What is the main idea of the passage?A. The development of click chemistry.B. The importance of bio-orthogonal chemistry.C. Functional molecules can be built by a simple way.D.Three scientists share 2022 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.三、语篇填空Tina is a thirteen-year-old middle school student. Last year, she went to a summer school in1.______(French) and stayed with a local family, the Truffauts.At first, things didn’t go well 2.___________she couldn’t speak French. Simple things like 3.________(find) the right bus stop became big problems. The Truffauts helped her a lot and treated her like part of the family. They played games and shared traditional food 4._________her. Tina was helpful as well. She did some housework with the family every day.

Tina began to love her new life. “A smile is 8._________second language we were born to speak. It is also the 9.________(good) gift I have got,” she often said proudly.Smiles and a helping hand can always make people 10.______________(close) than a language can.四、任务型阅读We find it difficult to find true friends these days. A lot of people tend to backstab(背后伤人). Some make friends just to use them. Others promise to be your friends but they are never there when you need them the most. They appear only when they need something from you.Once you find a friend who is worth keeping, make sure to take care of what you have with that person. How? Here are some tips on how to make friendship last forever:Call for no reason. Call just to say "Hi” or just to ask “ What's up?” You don't need a huge or an important reason to call a friend. If you can't call, just send an e-mail. This would send a message that you remember your friends on a random (随意的) time of the day.Know when to say I'm sorry and thank you. Don't let pride get in the way, especially when you make a mistake. The word “sorry” already has saved a lot of friendships. Show how thankful you are for the things, big or little, that your friend does for you. Did she listen to you when you were complaining about that physics exam? Did he offer his shoulders for you to cry on when your boyfriend broke your heart? Say thank you. It's that easy.Don't say hurtful words. If you have nothing good to say, don't talk at all. Don't hurt your friends' feelings by saying hurtful words that, most of the time, you don't really mean. If you're a true friend, you will be careful with your words.Be honest. Don't lie to friends. Trust is the base of true friendship. Write them a note from time to time. Also, try to be thoughtful. Give simple gifts that will make their day.Know how to keep a secret and show your friends that they can depend on you to be there whatever happens. If you promise to keep the secrets for your friends, just do it.Never be mean(小气的)with your time. Spare some time to see your friends however busy you are. You can always spare an hour or two after school or work to visit them.答案:完形填空1-5.CBADA 6-10.DBCDA 11-15.BCDAB阅读理解A篇:ADCDC B篇:ABCAD语篇填空1-5.France; because ; finding ; with ;joined6-10.their ; was invited ; a; best ; closer任务型阅读1-5.

One of the things he discovered was money made of paper. People in the West did not have such kind of money until the 15th century. However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century.Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2,000 years ago. But it was not made in Europe until the year 1100.Four hundred years later, a German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees. After that countries rich in forests, such as Canada, Sweden, America, Finland became the most important ones in paper making.Paper can be used in many ways. The common uses include newspapers, magazines and books. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm? In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots to keep their feet warm in the snow. And even houses can be insulated(使绝缘) from heat or cold with paper.However, we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future. Every day people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees tomake one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting down nearly 48,000 trees every day. The fact is that it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow.So we must start saving paper right now. We can use both sides of every piece of paper. We can make useful things out of used paper. We can use china cups instead of paper ones. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some.In short, we should keep a balance(平衡) between using paper and protecting trees, and do it now before it is too late.1.When did the Chinese begin to use paper money?A.In the 5th century.B.In the 6th century.C.In the 7th century.D.In the 15th century.2.Why did Canada become an important country in paper making?A.Because it was a large country.B.Because it had lots of forests.C.Because it was a very rich country.D.Because the inventor was from Canada.3.In Finland, paper is used for .A.making bedsB.reducing wasteC.making umbrellasD.keeping warm4.According to the passage, how many trees are needed to make one ton of paper?A.10.B.17.C.2,800.D.48,000.5.Paragraph 5 mainly talks about .A.how paper boots are madeB.how paper was inventedC.how we can save paperD.how we can make useful thingsBLong, long ago people made fires from lightning(闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightning. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark(火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing(摩擦). They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.About two centuries ago, people began to make matches. Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is very useful.1.From the text we know that a spark can .A.fire any leavesB.burn anythingC.burn dry leavesD.keep fire burning2.To make a fire by rubbing, people should .A.make a hole on a big piece of woodB.put a smaller stick into the holeC.turn the stick hard for a whileD.all above together3.Matches have been used .A.for about two thousand yearsB.for about two hundred yearsC.since people began to use fire for cookingD.since people used the heat from the sun4.From the text, we know that .A.electric fire starters are used nowB.people haven’t used matches since they had electric fire startersC.today there are only two ways to make fireD.some forest fires happen from lightning5.Which of the following is the right order of the ways to make fires that people got to know?a.with a matchb.from the sunc.from lightningd.by rubbinge.with an electric fire starterA.a, b, c, d, eB.b, c, a, e, dC.c, d, b, a, eD.d, a, c, b, eC(2021四川南充)It was Saturday again. Lily and Lucy disliked Saturdays. That was another thing the twins had in common. They shared the same clothes and tied their hair in the same manner.In fact, it was hard for their classmates and teachers to tell them apart sometimes.Unlike their classmates, they had to get up early at seven every Saturday to prepare for their lessons. Lily had to attend the art lesson and Lucy had to attend her ballet lesson.“How I wish I could do something different today,” said the twins with one voice. All at once, an idea came to Lily and Lucy at the same time.“Do you have the same idea as me?” they asked each other and laughed. It seemed like a wonderful plan to them. After giving each other a description of their own friends, Lily put on Lucy’s ballet dress while Lucy put Lily’s brushes and paints into her bag. Then they left for their classes.When the art lesson started, Lucy couldn’t understand the art teacher. Unlike Lily, Lucy was poor at drawing. When the art lesson finally ended, Lucy didn’t dare to hand in her work.Meanwhile, Lily was struggling in the ballet class as well. As she had no idea about the dance steps, she had to follow her classmates blindly. As a result, she kept knocking into them. Their ballet teacher became impatient with her, “Lucy, you should remember the basic steps. You can’t depend on copying what others are doing.”When Lily and Lucy arrived home, they were tired out. They decided that they would never try to be someone else that they were not.1.What was the twins’ plan?A.To have a day off.B.To be each other for a day.C.To wear the same clothes.D.To have a normal day like their classmates.2.How did Lucy feel at the beginning of the art lesson?A.Lost.B.Excited.C.Mad.D.Sleepy.3.What does the underlined word“them” refer to?A.The teachers.B.The classmates.C.The dance steps.D.The ballet dresses.4.The ballet teacher became impatient because .A.she wasn’t herself that dayB.“Lucy” wasn’t patient that dayC.“Lucy” did very badly that dayD.she had discovered the twins’ plan5.What did the twins learn from the experience?A.Don’t try to run before you can walk.B.A good beginning makes a good ending.C.Saying is one thing and doing is another.D.The grass is not always greener on the other side.DIt seems more and more Americans want schools to teach foreign languages to children younger than five years old. The most popular way to teach these young children another language is called immersion.Children in immersion programs hear only the new language in the classroom. The children play games, sing songs and talk to one another in the new language. Some experts say immersion programs are the most effective way for young children to learn a language. But there can be a problem when children in the United States begin to learn another language at such an early age. Not many elementary schools continue to teach a foreign language. Only seven of the fifty states require schools to teach a foreign language to students between the ages of six and twelve. Language experts say it is easier for younger children to learn a language. Still, American schools generally do not begin to teach foreign languages until secondary schools. By then, students are about thirteen years old.American schools face difficult choices about the cost of educational programs. The government has increased support for foreign language study in its education law called “No Child Left Behind”.At the college, the Modern Language Association says more students than ever are studying foreign languages and more languages are being studied now than in the past. Spanish is the most widely taught in American colleges and universities. French, German, Chinese and Italian are also popular.1.The most popular way to teach the American children another language is called .A.taskB.speakingC.immersionD.listening2.Where is Spanish the most widely taught?A.In American colleges and universities.B.In American secondary schools.C.In American high schools.D.In American elementary schools.3.Students in immersion programs can do the following things EXCEPT .A.talking to one another in the new languageB.hearing their native languageC.playing games in the new languageD.hearing the new language4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The government doesn’t support this program.B.All schools will take part in the immersion program.C.It’s the best for children to learn a foreign language at an early age.D.Not many elementary schools continue to teach a foreign language.5.What is the passage mainly about?A.Foreign language teaching in America.B.Foreign language teaching ways in America.C.Foreign language teaching in American universities.D.Foreign language teaching in America high schools.题型三任务型阅读理解A(2021天津)A vegetarian(素食者)is someone who does not eat meat. Being a vegetarian has become a popular choice. In fact, 1 in every 200 kids in the US is a vegetarian. Most people choose to be vegetarians for many reasons.First, they believe that a vegetarian diet(饮食)is good for health. It usually has lessfat(脂肪)than a diet that includes meat. Vegetarians eat a low-fat diet to stay fit and healthy.A vegetarian diet also provides many vitamins(维生素)that people can’t get from meat. These vitamins protect people from some diseases.Second, many vegetarians are worried about how animals are raised and killed for food. They hope animals can be better treated.Finally, they think being a vegetarian can help the planet. People use more energy, water and land to raise animals for food than to grow fruit and vegetables. Also animals put greenhouse gases(温室气体)into the air. These gases cause global warming(全球变暖).Vegetarians advise people to have just a couple of vegetarian meals a week to make the world a better place.1.In fact, 1 in in the US is a vegetarian.2.Vegetarians eat a low-fat diet to stay .3.Many vegetarians are worried about .4.People use to raise animals for food than to grow fruit and vegetables.5.Vegetarians advise people to a week.BSometimes the easiest way to get somewhere is on the back of a bike.More and more people are using cars in many places in Africa today. However, things are different in Malawi. Bikes are the most popular way in this African country.Riding bikes is a way of life in Malawi. People use them to carry heavy things. They also use bikes to carry people, especially tourists. These years, taking a “bicycle taxi” to travel around Malawi has become quite popular among tourists from all over the world.If you go to Malawi, you will find a lot of bike taxis waiting on both sides of the roads. The riders make the bikes comfortable for passengers to sit on. You can jump on a bike taxi and get around at a very low cost.Alice is a 21-year-old student from Canada. She enjoys the special bike riding a lot.“I really like the bike taxi,” she says.“It’s easy and cheap.” Alice usually pays just $1 for going shopping in town.28-year-old Panjira Khombe began to ride a bike taxi two years ago. The young man enjoys this job.“I used to make boats for a living, but that’s a hard job. Being a bike taxi rider is easy for me and I don’t mind carrying heavy people,” he says.1. is a way of life in Malawi.2.In Malawi, are the most popular way for people to get somewhere.3.People can jump on a bike taxi and get around at a very cost in Malawi.4.Alice enjoys the bike taxi because it’s.5.Panjira Khombe thinks that making boats is .CJiaozi, also known as Chinese dumplings, is a must-have during holidays in Northern China. It dates back to ancient times.Jiaozi is one of the most important foods in Chinese New Year. Since jiaozi is in the shape of ancient Chinese gold or silver ingots(银锭), it symbolizes wealth(象征着财富). Traditionally, the members of a family get together to make dumplings on New Year’s Eve. They may hide a coin in one of the dumplings. The person who finds the coin will be likely to have good luck. As the Spring Festival marks the start of a new year, people choose to eat jiaozi in the hope of having a good future in the coming new year.Based on your taste, you can make different kinds of Chinese dumplings using different fillings. There is no set rule as to what makes dumpling fillings. They can be anything from vegetables, meat or seafood. Whatever the fillings are, the wrapping(包) skill needs to be exquisite(精美的) to make jiaozi good-looking.As China is a country with a vast territory(幅员辽阔), there are differences in different areas in ways of making jiaozi or even serving it. For example, dumpling wrappers are made with a rolling stick in Beijing and Hebei province, while in some parts of Inner Mongolia, wrappers are hand-pressed.1.When did Chinese people probably begin to have jiaozi?_________________________________________________________________________ 2.What does jiaozi symbolize?_________________________________________________________________________ 3.Why do people choose to eat jiaozi on New Year’s Eve?_________________________________________________________________________ 4.Do people need to follow set rules to make dumpling fillings?_________________________________________________________________________ 5.How are dumpling wrappers made in some parts of Inner Mongolia?_________________________________________________________________________答案:题型一判断正误型阅读理解A1.A2.A3.B4.B5.AB1.T2.T3.F4.F5.F题型二选择型阅读理解A1.C2.B3.D4.B5.CB1.C2.D3.B4.A5.CC1.B2.A3.B4.C5.DD1.C2.A3.B4.D5.B题型三任务型阅读理解A1.every 200 kids2.fit and healthy3.how animals are raised and killed for food4.more energy, water and land5.have just a couple of vegetarian mealsB人教版九年级英语中考总复习1.Riding bikes2.bikes3.low4.easy and cheap5.difficult/hardC1.In ancient times.2.It symbolizes wealth.3.In the hope of having a good future in the coming new year./Because they hope to have a good future in the coming new year.4.No.5.Dumpling wrappers are hand-pressed.11。

中考英语阅读理解专项练习班级_考号姓名总分(一)The worst tourist in the world is Nicholas Scottie of San-Francisco. Once he flew from the U. S. to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home. The plane made one-hour stop to get oil at Kennedy Airport of New York. As he thought he had arrived home. Mr. Scottie got off the plane. He thought he was in Rome. When nobody was there to meet him, Mr. Scottie thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic. While looking for their address, Mr. Scottie found that the old “Rome" had changed a lot. Many old build ings 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.

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. And I think they are also very cool.6.

Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected(感染) in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman.There are different kinds of color blindness. For example, a man cannot see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades(影子) of green. Sometimes a perso n can’t tell thedifference between blue and green. Only a few unlucky men may see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a difficult thing to explain. In only one eye there are millions of very small thing s called “cones(锥状细胞)”. These help us to see in the bright light and to tell differences between colors. There are also millions of “rods(杆状细胞)”, but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shapes but not colors.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue light will. Human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the help of the cones in our eyes, we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the help of the rods we can see shapes at night.Choose the best answer according to the passage.( )1. “Color blindness” means “______” in Chinese.A. 盲目B. 无色C. 色盲D. 讨厌颜色( )2.

Why would he need an ambulance just because he couldn’t find his keys? Then I found out what the trouble was. The man and his wife left the car keys on a coffee table, and later they couldn’t find them. Their little boy John was playing in the room, and they thought he swallowed(吞下) them.

At that time people started to keep cows, sheep and goats to get their milk.Of course what you drink today isn’t that fresh from cow.People cool the fresh milk down to four degrees Celsius(摄氏的) to stop the bacteria(细菌) growing. In factories, milk is pasteurized(灭菌) to stop it going bad. After disinfection(消毒) and packaging, it is sent to the supermarkets.Yogurt(酸奶) also comes from milk.People make some special bacteria to change the taste of milk and make the nutrients(营养物) in it easier for people to take in.

After this, many American men started to dress like him.In the 1970sT-shirts became the favorite kind of clothing for young people in many countries. At that time, they were a sign of being cool and different from others.In the 1980sT-shirts started to be hot in China.Now many young people show their own ideas on their T-hirts: special pictures, funny words...

But there were so many snowflakes that he couldn’t draw them all.How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying a camera.The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one. But his father didn’t agree. He thought thewhole thing was a bad idea. He thought the only thing a farmer should do was farming.But finally Bentley did get a camera. For more than a year he tried to take pictures of snowflakes. On January 15, 1885, during a snowstorm, Bentley took the first ever photo of an ice crystal with his camera. “It was the greatest moment of my life,” Bentley said later.For 13 years, Bentley worked quietly and took thousands of photos of ice crystals.

Teachers told students earthquake ABC and showed them what to do during a disaster(灾难). There was neither a ringing bell nor a classroom for these earthquake learners. The weekend earthquake destroyed many buildings at their school, so students had classes on the playground.Not just students in Ruichang suffered from the disaster.The quake hit Jiangxi’s northern areas between Jiujiang and Ruichang. It also affected(影响) neighbouring Hubei, Anhui and Hunan provinces.The earthquake killed more than ten people and injured more than 8,000 in above provinces.Many students in the disaster areas were living in tents (帐篷) and having classes in the open amid(在……中) cold winds.People all over the country gave their help. The government sent seven teams to the worst-hit areas with food, water and tents. Wonder what you could do? You could send money or clothes to those in trouble. Or you might volunteer to work with other people, groups or organizations that were helping out.“Since the earthquake, I realize what we learn about earthquakes in textboo ks can be very important,” said 14-year-old Yang Siyi from Jiangxi. “I’ll spread what I know to everyone around me in case of(以防) any possible disaster in the future.Choose the best answer according to the passage.( )1.

The underlined(划线的) word “spread” means “_______”.A. make sth. known widelyB. keep sth. secretlyC. announceD. speak outBIs human blood all the same? “Yes,” you may say. “It’s all red.”Well, it’s not as simple as you might think.Blood is made up of different parts, such as red blood cells(红血球), white blood cells and platelets(血小板).Two chemical molecules(分子) on the red blood cells make people’s blood different. Scientists mark one molecule “A” and the other molecule “B”. According to which and how many molecules are on the red cell, scientists divide blood into four types: A, B, AB and O.Your blood type will stay the same all your life.Scientists have been wondering if there are some links(联系) between people’s blood types and their personalities(个性), but they don’t know f or sure yet.But some say that people with the same blood type may have things in common.What’s your blood type? Do you have family members or friends who are of the same type as you? Read the following.People with type A: They look peaceful from the outside. But they ask too much of themselves that they may be very nervous inside. They get happy or sad easily. Sometimes they are shy but always very careful. They can easily win people’s trust(信任).People with type B:They have strong minds. Once they start a task, they don’t give up easily. They’ll try their best to finish it and do it well. Type B people always try to make themselves different from others. They want to do things in their own way.People with type AB: They are maybe the strangest among all blood types. They can be both open and shy, noisy and quiet at the same time! They are responsible(负责的) and always ready to help others.People with type O:They’re open and good at making friends. They always start tasks but don’t always finish them. They have lots of new ideas and love to be the centre of attention. They always strongly believe in themselves.Choose the best answer according to the passage.( )1.

初中英语 冀教版中考题型专项训练三 阅读理解 习题(含答案)
A(中考·孝感)Mr. Smith is fifty years old. He began to teach in a middle school twenty-six years ago. He works hard and always comes to his office on time. He expects his students to be honest and is strict with them. Some of his students become famous people, but they still remember him and often write to him. Of course the old man is proud of it.This term he began to teach Grade One. Some of the new students were told about him, but the others didn't know him well. He told them how to be an honest person. He gave them several examples and said, “I hate telling a lie most.”Before class was over, he told all his students to finish Exercise 8 in Unit 1. The next morning, as soon as he came into the classroom, he asked, “Who's finished Exercise 8?”A few students put up their hands. He shook his head and said,“Open your workbooks and see whether there's Exercise 8 in Unit 1 or not?”The students had a look at their workbooks and their faces turned red at once.1.How long has Mr.Smith taught in the middle school?A.

The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis (蛹). Feeling sorry for it, the man decides to help. He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily. Surprisingly enough, the butterfly is unable to fly. If the butterfly doesn't struggle (挣扎;奋斗) to leave the chrysalis, it can't fly! The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly. Similarly, the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make them fly.When people are young, meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life. When we look at successful people, we see that the most successful of them are people who have had to struggle. One famous businessman, who now owns many bigsupermarkets, used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young. Another successful man is Dennis. His father died when he was only twenty. His father's death forced him to mature fast. He had to bring up a family of nine people. He took up the challenges and overcame them. Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives.Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them. So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges. They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rock-climbing, camping, volunteer work and so on. However, just passing exams will not prepare a person for life. We must meet and overcome challenges. The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow. For countries to continue to become successful, it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overcome them.6.From the story we know that the butterfly can't fly because ________.A. it gets out by itselfB. the man feels sorry for itC. it tries to challenge itselfD. the man helps it come out7.Dennis's example shows that successful people should________.A. overcome the difficultiesB. take up business earlyC. become the leaders of tomorrowD. sell clothes from door to door8.The meaning of the underlined word “mature” in the passage is “________”.A. wake upB. give upC. grow upD. bring up9.What is the writer trying to do in this passage?A. Describe where a butterfly comes from.B. Encourage young people to face challenges.C. Suggest how to become a successful businessman.D. Explain what will happen if a person fails the exam.10.What is the best title for this passage?A. Successful People Have a Sense of AchievementB. Young People Must Develop Their Energy ActivelyC. Countries Should Continue to Become SuccessfulD. Challenges of Life Bring Out the Best in Young PeopleC(中考·沈阳)Children with no shoes on do better at school than those with shoes on, a study suggests.For over 10 years, researchers from universities observed (观察) children in 100 schools from 25 countries. They found that classrooms were quieter when children took off their shoes. It provided a quieter environment where pupils were more willing to focus on study than those with shoes on.“Children are much more willing to sit on the floor and relax if they have no shoes on, ” said professor Stephen Heppel, a lead researcher.“The last place a child would sit to read is an upright chair. And we've found that 95% ofthem really don't read on a chair at home, ” Heppel added, “When they go on holidays, they read lying down.”Professor Heppel hopes to bring the “shoeless policy” to all the U.K. schools. He says relaxing conditions at school make children feel as if they're at home. He believes all the teachers will be glad to adopt the habit.11.The best title to describe the main idea of the passage is“________”.A. Suggestions on shoeless childrenB. Suggestions on children with shoes onC. Shoeless children do better at schoolD. Shoeless children look cool at school12.According to the passage, we know that the study was made by ________.A. some university studentsB. children from 25 countriesC. teachers in 100 schoolsD. researchers from universities13.Which of the following pie charts(图表) () can explain Heppel's discovery?14.Heppel thinks shoeless policy can provide children with ________.A. quiet activitiesB. relaxing conditionsC. some upright chairsD. a safe environment15.What does the underlined word “adopt” mean in the passage?A. acceptB. refuseC. change D.throwD(中考·丽水)Think of a simple object — a piece of chalk, for example. Are you remembering its name, its shape, its color or its size? Are you remembering what it is used for, or the sound it makes when the teacher writes on the blackboard? Scientists say that memory includes different parts of the brain, such as language and the ability of sense. They believe that you begin to create a memory when you notice something with your senses. Then messages are sent to different brain cells, which join together to form connections. A new connection goes into your short-term memory. It is stored there for about 30 seconds, and then it is either lost or stored in your long-term memory.Having a good memory means making lots of connections and storing them in yourlong-term memory. To do this, you need to keep your brain in good shape. Eat plenty of brain food such as fish oil, fruit and vegetables. Laughter also makes your brain more active. Also, don't forget to exercise. So do some sports or just move around a lot in the house. Finally, get plenty of sleep. This will make your memories grow stronger.When you want to remember new information, you must pay special attention. Use your senses—sight, smell, hearing and touch—and keep repeating the information. To do well in your exams this year, turn off the TV, silence your mobile, and review your work regularly. Toremember something special, use your imagination to create visual (视觉的) connections. For example, you need to take a pencil, an eraser, your ID card and chips to your next exam. Imagine the ID card as the body of an animal, the pencil its long neck, and the eraser its head. Your animal is hungry, so now imagine it eating a bag of chips. It may sound crazy, but it's fun and it works. Another way is to do something different to your room. Turn a picture upside-down, or tie a sock around the door handle to remind (提醒) yourself of something to remember!16.At the beginning, the writer gives an example to ________.A. lead in the topic of the articleB. show the importance of chalkC. let readers remember the wordD. make readers know his favorite17.How many ways are mentioned to have a good memory in Paragraph 2?A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 5.18.The main idea of the third paragraph is ________.A. how to do well in examsB. how to remember new informationC. why to review our workD. what to eat to make memories stronger19.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Memory has nothing to do with languages.B. Laughter can help to improve our memory.C. A picture of eating chips is the most useful.D. Our brain is different to keep in good shape.E(中考·武汉)The Silk Road is the name of different roads that long ago connected Europe, Africa and Asia. People reached these different places along these roads. Scientists believe people began to travel the Silk Road about 3,000 years ago. By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road covered almost 6,500 kilometers. It went from Rome to China, which is from the West to the Far East.Merchants travelled along the Silk Road to carry silk, of course. They also carried and traded other things like spices (香料), cloth, jewels and gold.Along and around these ancient paths (小路), have come many fascinating and mysterious stories.It is said that Roman soldiers who lost a war travelled through central Asia. They decided to live somewhere near the ancient Chinese villages. Some of these Romans married local Chinese women and the legend of the blond-haired, blue-eyed tribes of China was started.Some historians believe that the people of Kashmir were taken away from their country Israel. They were prisoners (俘虏) of war about 2,800 years ago. People say that these people travelled along the Silk Road. They kept their Jewish way of life for a long time.During its busiest period, the Silk Road allowed people from many different cultures and countries to meet each other and mix. The Silk Road allowed the sharing of valuable things and new ideas. It included people and trading goods from different areas. All these peoples travelled the Silk Road, and they shared goods, stories, languages, and cultures.In modern times, the old Silk Road routes (路线) are still used, but now they are crossed by trains instead of camels and horses. There is even a Silk Route Museum in Jiuquan in China. It has over 35,000 objects from all along the Silk Road. In this way, China protects the history of many countries and peoples.20.It is clear that ________.A. the Silk Road was divided into Europe, Africa and AsiaB.

But this is not true for Xiao Lin (not her real name).In November, Xiao Lin took a trip to Lijiang, a tourist city in Yunnan Province, and had dinner at a restaurant. She had a fight with a group of local people because they made a joke about her while she was eating. Later, they beat her heavily and her face was injured badly, reported CCTV.This made the public very angry. In fact, she is not the first person to be injured at famous scenic spots (景区)in China.

中考英语各种题材阅读理解强化训练(附详解)
阅读理解(一)人物故事+校园生活+环境保护A [·兰州]As a well-known Chinese TV hostess, Dong Qing is now hosting two cultural shows, Chinese Poetry Conference and Readers. The two shows are encouraging people to love traditional culture and find the beauty of life.Dong was born in a highly educated family in 1973. She had a great love for traditional literature(文学) from an early age. In when she was about to study in the US, Dong received an invitation from the director of Chinese Poetry Conference asking her to be the hostess. Because of her passion for traditional literature, Dong accepted the job.“The contest interests me very much. Hosting it is a process of learning about poetry and performing,”said Dong. To her great joy, the show has become more and more popular.Under the slogan(口号) “Reading touches people’s hearts”, the new TV show Readers has become a success. It invites famous guests from all walks of life to read something. Dong works as both hostess and producer.Readers became a turning point in Dong’s 21 years of hosting. She said it brought her “quite a huge challenge”.“There is no shortcut(捷径) in this world. If you want to be a good host, you need to make thorough preparations,”said the beautiful hostess. “The charm of life lies in its unknown, so we just have to try and keep going.”1.What shows is Dong Qing hosting now?A.Readers.B.Chinese Poetry Conference.C.Chinese Poetry Conference and Readers.D.The Voice of China.2.Where did Dong Qing decide to study in ?A.In France.B.In England.C.In Japan.D.In America.3.What does Dong Qing do at present?A.An actress.B.A singer.C.A hostess.D.A hostess and producer.4.The underlined word “passion”in the second paragraph probably means “great ”.A.loveB.joyC.surpriseD.pride5.What’s the best title(题目) for the text?A.Find the Beauty of LifeB.How to Be a Successful TV HostessC.Reading Touches People’s HeartsD.Dong Qing—a Talented LadyB [·常州]We wake up very early to go to school, maybe even earlier to meet with a teacher, complete our extracurricular (课程以外的) activities, come home to have a quick dinner, talk for eight minutes with our parents and do homework until we fall asleep. But then we remember. We have to look at the American College Test (ACT) exercises one more time. Half asleep, we run downstairs to get the ACT book, and start studying. After this we finally get to turn off the lights and drift away to sleep. And then six hours later, we doit all over again.In my health class, my teacher told us that teenagers need at least eight to nine hours of sleep each night. The sad truth is, with so much to do every day, high school students cannot keep to this sleep schedule (安排).Let me ask you all a question: Doesn’t it seem more humane(人道的) to give a teenager perhaps two hours of homework each night? This would allow us to have the eight to nine hours of much needed sleep. Or does it seem better to pile students with five hours of work a night? It leaves us very little time to relax, therefore reducing the time that we can sleep.In my opinion, the present structure(结构) of the junior year of high school doesn’t work well. Junior year of high school is a time for growth. By this time many students have the ability to think creatively, and solve challenging problems. Homework is important for a student’s growth. But do we really need to spend countless hours a night doing it? Too much homework can only lead to too little sleep and too low an ability.I do think it is time to change the structure, so that we sleep at home, and learn at school.1.In the first paragraph the writer gives .A.a picture of the present daily life of high school studentsB.an example of an ideal daily life of high school studentsC.a reason for high school students to live a busy daily school lifeD.a suggestion of what high school students should do to pass ACT2.From the last paragraph we know that the writer thinks .A.junior year of high school is the most important growth periodB.challenging problems are needed for a teenager’s growthC.the ability to think has nothing to do with homeworkD.the present structure leads to students often sleeping in class3.Why does the writer write this article?A.T o prove the role of enough sleep in teenagers’ growth.B.To complain about the problems in the system of the ACT.C.To ask for a change for less homework and more sleep.D.T o discuss the relationship between sleep and homework.C [·广州]Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on planet Earth. What many people don’t know is that junk (垃圾) has become a problem in outer space too.According to BBC News, there are more than 22,000 pieces of space junk floating around the Earth. And these are just the things that we can see from the surface of the Earth by telescopes(望远镜). There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can’t see.Objects, like bits of old space rockets or satellites, move around the planet at very high speeds, so fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts. If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spaceship, it could damage the vehicle.To make things worse, when two objects in space crash, they break into many smaller pieces. For example, when a US satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009, it broke into more than 2,000 pieces, increasing the amount of space junk.To reduce additional space junk, countries have agreed that all new space tools can only stay in space for 25 years at most. Each tool must be built to fall safely into the Earth’s atmosphere after that time. In the upper parts of the atmosphere, it will burn up.Many scientists are also suggesting different ways to clean up space junk.

(A)All the teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn。
But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes, which take place between any two people.By dealing with such a problem, you can learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you。
Even if a certain teacher isn’t your favorite, you can still have a successful relationship, especially if you perform your basic duties as a student。
Here are some ways.*Attend classes on time and always get ready to learn。
中考英语强化阅读练习题及答案
中考英语强化阅读练习题及答案To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality 音色 and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand 预先. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along.I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.1. What is the text about ?A. How to become a good teacher.B. What a good teacher should do outside the classroom.C. What teachers and actors could learn from each other.D. The similarities相似处 and differences between a teache r’s work and an actor’s.2. The word “audience” in the fourth paragraph means ____ .A. studentsB. people who watch a playC. people who not on the stageD. people who listen to something3. A good teacher ____ .A. knows how to hold the interest of his studentsB. must have a goodvoiceC. knows how to act on the stageD. stands or sits still while teaching4. In what way is a teacher’s work different from an actor’s ?A. The teacher must learn everything by heart .B. He knows how to control his voice better than an actor .C. He has to deal with unexpected situations .D. He has to use more facial expressions .5. The main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that ____.A. students can move around in the classroomB. students must keep silent while theatre audience needn’tC. no memory work is needed for the studentsD. the students must take part in their teachers’ plays6. Why is it that some good teachers are unable to play well on the stage ?A. Nobody has taught them how to act on the stage .B. Their audiences are different .C. It is impossible for them to do so much memory work .D. They are not used to repeating exactly the same words .7. Which of the following is true ?A. Teachers have to learn by heart what they are going to say in class .B. A teacher cannot decide beforehand what exactly he is going to say in class .C. A teacher must speak louder than an actor .D. A teacher must have a better memory than an actor .1D 2 A 3 A 4 C 5 D 6 D 7 BI found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible 负责任 for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously aboutall the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.1. The story took place exactly ____ .A. in the teacher’s officeB. in an exam roomC. in the schoolD. in the language lab2. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ____ .A. she had not brought a pen with herB. she had lost her own on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her wnD. her own had been taken away by someone3. The teacher saw all this, so she asked the boy ____ .A. to go on writing his paperB. to stop whisperingC. to leave the room immediatelyD. to stay behind after the exam4. The things emphasized in her talk waswere ____ .A. honestyB. sense of dutyC. seriousnessD. all of the above5. The boy knew everything ____ .A. the moment he was asked to stay behindB. when the teacher started talking about honestyC. only some time laterD. when he was walking out of the room1B 2 C 3 D 4 A 5 C感谢您的阅读,祝您生活愉快。

初中英语中考强化系列之综合阅读训练(三)AFor students in Ruichang, Jiangxi Province, the first class after the November 26, 2005 earthquake was special.All the lessons were about earthquake safety. Teachers told students earthquake ABC and showed them what to do during a disaster(灾难). There was neither a ringing bell nor a classroom for these earthquake learners. The weekend earthquake destroyed many buildings at their school, so students had classes on the playground.Not just students in Ruichang suffered from the disaster.The quake hit Jiangxi’s northern areas between Jiujiang and Ruichang. It also affected(影响) neighbouring Hubei, Anhui and Hunan provinces.The earthquake killed more than ten people and injured more than 8,000 in above provinces.Many students in the disaster areas were living in tents (帐篷) and having classes in the open amid(在……中) cold winds.People all over the country gave their help. The government sent seven teams to the worst-hit areas with food, water and tents. Wonder what you could do? You could send money or clothes to those in trouble. Or you might volunteer to work with other people, groups or organizations that were helping out.“Since the earthquake, I realize what we learn about earthquakes in textbooks can be very important,” said 14-year-old Yang Siyi from Jiangxi. “I’ll spread what I know to everyone around me in case of(以防) any possible disaster in the future. Choose the best answer according to the passage.( )1.

The underlined(划线的) word “spread” means “_______”.A. make sth. known widelyB. keep sth. secretlyC. announceD. speak outBIs human blood all the same? “Yes,” you may say. “It’s all red.”Well, it’s not as simple as you might think.Blood is made up of different parts, such as red blood cells(红血球), white blood cells and platelets(血小板).Two chemical molecules(分子) on the red blood cells make people’s blood different. Scientists mark one molecule “A” and the other molecule “B”. According to which and how many molecules are on the red cell, scientists divide blood into four types: A, B, AB and O.Your blood type will stay the same all your life.Scientists have been wondering if there are some links(联系) between people’s blood types and their personalities(个性), but they don’t know for sure yet.But some say that people with the same blood type may have things in common.What’s your blood type? Do you have family members or friends who are of the same type as you? Read the following.People with type A: They look peaceful from the outside. But they ask too much of themselves that they may be very nervous inside. They get happy or sad easily. Sometimes they are shy but always very careful. They can easily win people’s trust(信任).People with type B: They have strong minds. Once they start a task, they don’t give up easily. They’ll try their best to finish it and do it well. Type B people always try to make themselves different from others. They want to do things in their own way.People with type AB: They are maybe the strangest among all blood types. They can be both open and shy, noisy and quiet at the same time! They areresponsible(负责的) and always ready to help others.People with type O:They’re open and good at making friends. They always start tasks but don’t always finish them. They have lots of new ideas and love to be the centre of attention. They always strongly believe in themselves.Choose the best answer according to the passage.( )1.

A person with type A blood has the strangest personality.CMaybe the sweet smell of mooncakes has already reached your nose.The festival is celebrated on the 15th of the eighth lunar(阴历的) month every year when the moon is at its fullest. I think you really enjoyed the round, moon-shaped food with different fillings(馅), such as red beans or nuts.Family members get together to enjoy the bright moonlight. But, do you know, Koreans also have a day known as the Mid-Autumn Festival? It’s called “Chusok”, and falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month of their calendar.As one of the most important holidays in Korea, they have three days off work! Chusok is a time to give thanks to family for their love and care. This is very similar to America’s Thanksgiving Day!On Chusok, people also eat the delicious food served at the family get-together. They eat rice cakes named “Songphyun(蒸糕)” instead of mooncakes!Early in the morning, they pay their respects to ancestors(祖宗) with rituals(仪式).Do they enjoy the moon together like us in China?
