阅读理解(人生百味)单元测试题(含答案)(word)一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people worried about getting older. Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50.In fact, they say by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old.The findings came from a survey of more than 340, 000 adults in the United States. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone. At that time, the people were between the ages of 18 and 85.The researchers asked questions about emotions, like happiness, sadness and worry. They also asked about mental(气质) or emotional stress.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 24 and 25.The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.The study also showed that men and women have similar feeling patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men.Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their feelings. So they spend less time thinking about bad experiences.Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be connected with changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry.The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed(被解雇) or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect (影响) the levels of happiness.(1)Who would probably show the greatest interest in the passage?A. Those who are worried about getting old.B. Those who are single and unemployed.C. Those who feel unhappy all the time.D. Those who suffer from mental stress.(2)When may people have the highest level of stress?A. At the age of 20.B. At the age of 25.C. At the age of 35.D. At the age of 40.(3)According to Arthur Stone's idea, old people may .A. control their behaviors betterB. know how to spend money wiselyC. dream about good things every dayD. have a positive attitude towards their life(4)What would be the best title for this passage?A. The Younger, the HappierB. The Young Are Happier than the OldC. Getting Older Means Getting HappierD. Women Are Easier to Be Happy in Life【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)D(4)C【解析】【分析】文章大意:重点介绍的是老年人的幸福感问题,作者通过一个调查研究告诉我们随着年龄的增长,人们的幸福感会越来越强。

阅读理解(人生百味)单元测试题(含答案)(word)1一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives(观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.With this belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people's writing can one discover what works, what doesn't and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read books. Reading reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.(1)What can be inferred about the author as a child?A. He never watched TV.B. He found reading unbelievable.C. He considered reading part of his life.D. He read what he had to.(2)The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “________”.A. a beliefB. a way of writingC. a sound qualityD. a world to write about (3)What effect does reading have on the author?A. It opens up a wider world for him.B. It helps him to realize his dream.C. It makes his college life more interesting.D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.(4)Which of the following can be the best title of this text?A. How do I read?B. What do I read?C. Why do I read?D. When do I read?【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)A(4)C【解析】【分析】作者从小的时候就非常喜欢阅读,这个习惯也让他有了成为一名作家的想法。

Don't take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.Successful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods.

Because he was in a bad mood.B. Because his car was full of rubbish.C. Because he was badly hurt by the taxi.D. Because the taxi driver didn't say sorry to him.(4)From the passage, we can tell that the taxi driver is _______.A. silly and dishonestB. wise and friendlyC. helpful but nervousD. modest but impatient(5)What does the passage mainly tell us?A.

I thought she was very lonely, although she didn't mind it. She had a workshop where my mother helped her make the best strawberry jam, and everyone in our town bought it. But aunt Fanny asked my mother not to tell the recipe(秘方) of making the strawberry jam to others.When the strawberries were ripe,my family would pick them together. We talked and laughed, experiencing the fun of picking strawberries. But aunt Fanny never joined us. She just asked us to pick strawberries quickly and make more strawberry jam to make more money for her. Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman! It's no use having too much money because she had no family and friends to share her happiness during her lifetime.Maybe it was the recipe that brought success to aunt Fanny.

She never thought how fast the hours were passing until being tired. She sat down on a rock. Soon she was scared because the sea water was going up. She wanted to go home, but she found the places she had gone down easily very difficult to climb up. The stones were wet and smooth. What could poor Maggie do? She felt sad and cried.Luckily, Dan's large dog Rover jumped down from a rock! Rover raised his loud bark. The fisherman had taken his nets to the top of the cliffs (悬崖), and was laying them out in the sun when he heard the loud barking of a dog. He felt sure that it was Rover, and Rover was in trouble, so he looked over. There he saw it all.“Bless her! It is the little one that was so kind-spoken to me this morning!” he cried, and he hurried to his sons' rooms.“Quick, boys, quick!” he said. “Get to the boat, and row fast to the sea. There is a poor child there just waiting to be helped.” The fishermen lost no time, and soon little Maggie and Rover were rowed safely to land! Old Dan was waiting there to lift her out to give her into her mother's arms.“It was the penny that did it, madam,” he said to Mrs. Weston later. “I saw Rover looking at her when she put the penny.

BThink of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be broken and never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How ?Don't look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.Don't let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.Don't be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; the best way to keep love is to give it wings.Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless. It's a treasure you can always carry easily.Don't use time or words carelessly. You can't get them back.

They were on economics(经济学), a subject that I didn't really like much then.I laughed at the silly mistakes I made as I looked through the papers. And memories of the past came to my mind. I saw myself sitting at one of the study tables, working hard for some of my life goals. Back then, it was popular for most students to set life goals, because they thought it was most important.It was during those times that I first started to set goals for myself. I didn't know much about goal setting then. I didn't use any goal tracking(跟踪) tools, either. All I knew was that I had to go to university. There was no other way that I could give myself. To go through my lecture(演讲) notes, I didn't take breaks. For more revision with my classmates, I stayed back late. One time, I missed the school lock-out hours and I had to climb school gates in order to leave. It was perhaps this attitude(态度) that ignited my decision to go through what I had to do to get this far.Yes, it may have been hard. But the sweet taste of victory experienced at the point of receiving my final results was so wonderful that I would never forget it for the rest of my life.I closed the folder and dropped it into the dustbin(垃圾箱)in the room. It's time to get kicking with my next goal. And by writing this, I know I'm getting closer.(1)When the author(作者)looked through the papers in the folder, he .A. looked for a self-improvement bookB. laughed at the silly mistakes he madeC. dropped it into the dustbin right awayD. sat at the table and set life goals again(2)When the author first started to get goals for himself, he .A. didn't need to enter universityB. didn't use any goal tracking toolsC. was sure that he would win the victoryD. learned a lot from a self-improvement book (3)Why did the author stay back late after school?A. To be prepared to enter university.B. To learn more about goal setting.C. To make his teacher pay attention to him.D. To get the chance of climbing school gates.(4)The underlined word “ignited” means in the passage.A. reduced(减少)B. balanced(平衡)C. questionedD. raised(5)What can we learn about the author from the last paragraph?A. He regularly(规律地) tidies his room.B. He's not quite good at goal settingC. He is ready for the next goal.D.

There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment (公寓房间), I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining street-light. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the street.Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired any more, and I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the street anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the street next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes."Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.(1)How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick.B. Fortunate and helpful.C. Disappointed and helpless.D. Satisfied and cheerful.(2)From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy _________.A. solving her problem at the bankB. preparing for the first night showC. learning acting in an evening schoolD. taking part in various city activities(3)On her way home the writer __________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her (4)In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.D. She heard someone call her name.(5)From the text, we can infer that the writer _________.A. would stop working at nightB. would give up her job at the bankC. would stay on in San FranciscoD. would make friends with cleaners【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)A(4)D(5)C【解析】【分析】文章大意:本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者在忙碌的工作之后感觉十分的失望无奈,只是在她回家的路上她的钱包在不知不觉中丢了,她在回去找钱包的路上遇到了归还钱包的清洁工,这份善良唤回了她对城市的信心。

阅读理解(人生百味)单元练习题(含答案)经典一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解As a kid, I read a story of a bird. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a house and the female bird takes care of the baby in it. When the baby bird learns to fly, the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me confused(困惑的):How could they so easily give up their house built with so much effort?One night, I got this dream. I was walking on the endless road with beautiful trees on the either side. Attracted by the greenery, I went on, then I saw a wonderful house. I explored the house. There was a sloping(斜的) roof which matched with the greenery around; the large central open yard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house — of course, it was all dried up now. Such liveliness turns the house into a home. People say “THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS”, and now I felt it and was attracted deeply.When I woke up from the dream, I was clear about everything. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey(传递) me. And years later, when I chose my career, I thought of the story of the bird and my dream,then I was sure what to do. I decided to choose architecture as my career. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did, to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it. My dream comes true and the happiness that I gain now from this career is great.(1)When the writer read the story of the bird,he felt _______.A. boredB. confusedC. amazedD. worried(2)In the writer's dream, what part of the house attracted him most?A. The sloping roof of the house.B. The body of water that keeps the house cool.C. The large central open yard.D. The liveliness that he felt around the house.(3)The underlined word “architecture” in Paragraph 3 means _______ in Chinese.A. 考古B. 天文C. 建筑D. 艺术(4)The passage is mainly about _______.A. how the bird could give up their house easilyB. how the writer finally becomes an honest citizenC. what we need to do when we choose our careerD. why the writer chooses architecture as his career【答案】(1)B(2)D(3)C(4)D【解析】【分析】本文主要内容是作者小时候听到一个关于一种小鸟的故事,这种鸟的公鸟负责搭窝,母鸟负责抚养后代,小鸟长大后,他们飞走了,把鸟窝留给其他鸟。

DIn today's world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影响) on the poor, but once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn't mean more happiness.If money was everything, all millionaires would have true love, true friendship, good health and a long life. However, this is not always true.Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are "I love you". But can love be bought? I'm afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and long life are probably the most precious(宝贵的) things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is "No".Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship can't be bought either. In a word, where money is worshiped(崇拜), money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on. No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have no one to laugh with, no one to cry for.

阅读理解(人生百味)单元测试(word版附答案)一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解The following are some tips for becoming a successful businessman by Michael Bloomberg. They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up, leading New York City as mayor(市长), and so on.Take RisksLife is too short to spend your time avoiding failure.In 1981, at the age of 39, I lost my job. The next day I took a big risk and began my own company. In 2001, when I was debating whether to run for mayor, most people advised me not to do it. But one person said, “If you can imagine yourself giving a concession(败选)speech, then why not go for it?” That was the best advice I received, and I followed it.In order to succeed, you must first be willing to fail— and you must have the courage to go for it anyway.Make your own luckLuck plays a part in success. The harder you work, the luckier you get.Whatever you choose to do, even if it's not the job of your dreams, always work hard at it. Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night. Hard work creates chances. Never stop learningThe most powerful word in English language is “why”. There is nothing so powerful as an open, inquiring mind(探究精神). Whatever field you choose for starting a business — be a lifelong student.Give backYou are responsible for your success and failure, but you only succeed if you share the reward with others.My first donation was a $ 5 check to my alma mater (母校) . And while the checks(支票)may be bigger today, they come with the same spirit.You don't have to be wealthy to give back. You can give back by giving your time and talents. (1)In this passage, Michael Bloomberg is the name of a .A. newspaperB. placeC. companyD. person(2)What did the writer do at the age of 59?A. Lost his job.B. Ran for mayor.C. Built a company.D. Became a teacher.(3)From the passage, we can infer that the writer .A. is a young mayorB. seldom cares about othersC. is lucky all the timeD. is a hard-working man(4)Which of the following isn't mentioned in the tips?A. Failure is the mother of success.B. It's never too old to learn.C. Money is everything.D. Luck comes from hard work.(5)In which of the following columns(栏目)can you find the article?A. Family LifeB. Interesting StoriesC. Experience SharingD. Adventures【答案】(1)D(2)B(3)D(4)C(5)C【解析】【分析】文章大意:短文介绍了成功的商人迈克尔·布隆伯格获取成功的一些秘诀。

阅读理解(人生百味)单元测试题含答案一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解This afternoon, when I was looking for a self-improvement(自我修养) book, I found an aged folder(文件夹).In this folder, there were some of the examination papers I'd taken during my pre-university days. They were on economics(经济学), a subject that I didn't really like much then.I laughed at the silly mistakes I made as I looked through the papers. And memories of the past came to my mind. I saw myself sitting at one of the study tables, working hard for some of my life goals. Back then, it was popular for most students to set life goals, because they thought it was most important.It was during those times that I first started to set goals for myself. I didn't know much about goal setting then. I didn't use any goal tracking(跟踪) tools, either. All I knew was that I had to go to university. There was no other way that I could give myself. To go through my lecture(演讲) notes, I didn't take breaks. For more revision with my classmates, I stayed back late. One time, I missed the school lock-out hours and I had to climb school gates in order to leave. It was perhaps this attitude(态度) that ignited my decision to go through what I had to do to get this far.Yes, it may have been hard. But the sweet taste of victory experienced at the point of receiving my final results was so wonderful that I would never forget it for the rest of my life.I closed the folder and dropped it into the dustbin(垃圾箱)in the room. It's time to get kicking with my next goal. And by writing this, I know I'm getting closer.(1)When the author(作者)looked through the papers in the folder, he .A. looked for a self-improvement bookB. laughed at the silly mistakes he madeC. dropped it into the dustbin right awayD. sat at the table and set life goals again(2)When the author first started to get goals for himself, he .A. didn't need to enter universityB. didn't use any goal tracking toolsC. was sure that he would win the victoryD. learned a lot from a self-improvement book (3)Why did the author stay back late after school?A. To be prepared to enter university.B. To learn more about goal setting.C. To make his teacher pay attention to him.D. To get the chance of climbing school gates.(4)The underlined word “ignited” means in the passage.A. reduced(减少)B. balanced(平衡)C. questionedD. raised(5)What can we learn about the author from the last paragraph?A. He regularly(规律地) tidies his room.B. He's not quite good at goal settingC. He is ready for the next goal.D. He hated those papers in the folder.【答案】(1)B(2)B(3)A(5)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者通过与读者分享自己的高中生活的回忆,告诉我们人生是由一个一个的目标组成的,我们要尽全力朝着自己确定的目标前进。

Why would a woman want to take a vacation without her family?Some women say they need time to be alone.At Mother's Camp a woman has room for herself.

But then they burn the rice or they can't find the pans. They ask so many questions that their wives decide it is easier to do the job themselves.Some women go to Mother's Camp just to get a break from housework. For two days they don't cook, they don't clean and they don't look after their children and husbands.

I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives(观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.With this belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people's writing can one discover what works, what doesn't and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read books. Reading reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.(1)What can be inferred about the author as a child?A. He never watched TV.B. He found reading unbelievable.C. He considered reading part of his life.D. He read what he had to.(2)The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “________”.A. a beliefB. a way of writingC. a sound qualityD. a world to write about (3)What effect does reading have on the author?A. It opens up a wider world for him.B. It helps him to realize his dream.C. It makes his college life more interesting.D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.(4)Which of the following can be the best title of this text?A. How do I read?B. What do I read?C. Why do I read?D. When do I read?【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)A(4)C【解析】【分析】作者从小的时候就非常喜欢阅读,这个习惯也让他有了成为一名作家的想法。

As December comes to an end, you think about the new year and all the ways you want to improve your life. But as you start to write down your hopes for the new year, you think about the last year. You excitedly write down all the changes you are going to make, but by the end of January those ideas get lost in your busy life.Here's a suggestion: Forget the too big, hard to achieve goals and just think about the small ones. “We oft en think that we have to do everything in big steps, even though it's so hard for us to reach it, said Robert Maurer, who recently wrote the book One Small Step Can Change Your Life. “What we try to do is to begin with such a small step that we can't find any excuse not to do it.”“Kaizen”, a Japanese word, is used to mean to change behavior and attitudes. During World WarⅡ, American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes. After the war, the idea was brought to a rebuilding Japan. It made Japan develop fast. The Japanese called it “Kaizen”, which means “improvement”. Maurer studied the idea and did some experiments with it. “Kaizen” could possibly help people succeed in doing everything.(1)Robert Maurer wrote a book to tell us ______.A. we should do everything in big stepsB. how to change one's life with one small stepC. we should try a lot of sudden changesD. how to find a small step without any excuse (2)The underlined part “increase productivity” in the passage means “______”.A. 提高生产率B. 增加成本C. 增加出口量D. 提高待遇(3)The writer of the passage suggests we should ______.A. make changes at the end of the yearB. do few experiments with “Kaizen”C. do things with hard to achieve goalsD. take a tiny step to achieve big goals(4)Which of the following is TRUE from the passage?A. You can achieve your goals if you are not too busy.B. Robert Maurer studied “kaizen” and found it helpful.C. You can't find any excuse not to reach a big goal.D. “Kaizen” was brought to Japan during World WarⅡ.【答案】(1)B(2)A(3)D(4)B【解析】【分析】本文主要讲述了应忘记太大的、难以实现的目标,只想想小的目标,一步步地去实现它。

阅读理解(人生百味)单元测试(含解析)经典一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment (公寓房间), I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining street-light. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the street.Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired any more, and I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the street anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the street next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes."Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.(1)How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick.B. Fortunate and helpful.C. Disappointed and helpless.D. Satisfied and cheerful.(2)From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy _________.A. solving her problem at the bankB. preparing for the first night showC. learning acting in an evening schoolD. taking part in various city activities(3)On her way home the writer __________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her (4)In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.D. She heard someone call her name.(5)From the text, we can infer that the writer _________.A. would stop working at nightB. would give up her job at the bankC. would stay on in San FranciscoD. would make friends with cleaners【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)A(4)D(5)C【解析】【分析】文章大意:本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者在忙碌的工作之后感觉十分的失望无奈,只是在她回家的路上她的钱包在不知不觉中丢了,她在回去找钱包的路上遇到了归还钱包的清洁工,这份善良唤回了她对城市的信心。
(1)推理判断题。
根据文章第一段"I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco.City life had become too much for me"我想过放弃表演和旧金山,城市生活对我来说真是变化太大了,可推测此时的作者是失望和无奈的;故选C。
(2)细节理解题。
根据文章第一段"I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time"可知我忙于准备晚上的表演;故选B。
(3)细节理解题。
根据文章第三段"Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been.It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk."可知在她回家的路上她的钱包在不知不觉中丢了;故选A。
38.细节理解题。
根据文章第五段"Alisa Camacho?"I thought I was dreaming.How could this man know my name"可知作者觉得在做梦因为她听到了有人在喊她的名字;故选D。
(4)推理判断题。
根据文章最后一段"I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other"可知作者改变了对城市的态度,不再那么失望了,因此她很可能会留在旧金山;故选C。
【点评】做题时不必拘泥于书中所呈现的语篇顺序,应遵循先易后难的原则。
如可先做细节题再做推断题,因为细节题大多能直接从文中找到答案,而推断题则需对短文进行深层理解,再作判断。
2.阅读理解As a young woman, my mother worked in the kitchen of a large farm owned by Fanny Cratty. She was hardworking and had a special skill in making delicious strawberry jam.Aunt Fanny was single and had no children. She didn't like to share love with others. I thought she was very lonely, although she didn't mind it. She had a workshop where my mother helped her make the best strawberry jam, and everyone in our town bought it. But aunt Fanny asked my mother not to tell the recipe(秘方) of making the strawberry jam to others.When the strawberries were ripe,my family would pick them together. We talked and laughed, experiencing the fun of picking strawberries. But aunt Fanny never joined us. She just asked us to pick strawberries quickly and make more strawberry jam to make more money for her.Each person in our town said that she just paid attention to money rather than anything else. What a poor woman! It's no use having too much money because she had no family and friends to share her happiness during her lifetime.Maybe it was the recipe that brought success to aunt Fanny. But to me, it was just a common recipe. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the beautiful days spent with family and friends that truly make you rich.(1)Who owns the recipe of making the best strawberry jam?A. The writer's mother.B. The writer.C. Aunt Fanny.D. Fanny's mother.(2)Why do people in the town think aunt Fanny is poor?A. Because she needed to work hard in her workshop.B. Because she paid attention to nothing except money.C. Because she had no close friends to shared her success.D.
