中考英语阅读理解专项训练30题1<背景文章>Last weekend, I went on an exciting outdoor adventure with my friends. We decided to explore a nearby forest that we had heard was full of surprises. As we entered the forest, the fresh air and the sound of birds chirping filled our senses. The sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating a beautiful pattern on the ground.We followed a narrow path that led us deeper into the forest. Along the way, we saw various kinds of plants and flowers. Some of them were so colorful and unique that we couldn't help but stop and admire them. We also came across a small stream that was crystal clear. The water was so cold and refreshing that we took off our shoes and dipped our feet in.After walking for a while, we reached a clearing where there was a large rock. We climbed up on the rock and had a picnic. We ate sandwiches, fruits, and drank juice. It was a perfect moment, surrounded by nature.As we continued our adventure, we stumbled upon an old abandoned cabin. It was a bit spooky, but we were brave enough to explore it. Inside, we found some old tools and a dusty book. It was like stepping back in time.Finally, as the sun began to set, we made our way back home. We weretired but happy, filled with memories of our amazing outdoor adventure.1. What did they do when they saw the small stream?A. They swam in it.B. They took pictures of it.C. They took off their shoes and dipped their feet in.D. They ignored it.答案:C。

I got a job as a journalist as soon as I finished university and I love my job till today.Journalism is not for everyone. How can one be a good journalist?You need to write well. You need to write in a way that is interesting to your audience. As a journalist, you will have to write for different audiences, so you need to be able lo change your style as well.Journalists work very hard. It doesn’t matter if you are ab road, writing about a war or at home writing about local news. Journalists work long days and it can be very hard to find time to have a holiday.You also need to be strong. What do I mean by that? Well, not everyone will like what you write. Sometimes peo ple will say bad words about your work. You can’t be angry with these people. You have to try to take no notice of them and keep working.You have to be good at talking to people too. Journalists find out most of their information by talking to people. Not everyone wants to talk to a journalist so you need to get people to trust you.Being a journalist is a hard but great job.

It can fly at a speed of about 200 miles per hour. You might think a bird that could fly so fast would be safe from most types of danger. Unfortunately, that is not true. By the 1970s, they had already been endangered. What was causing the number of falcons to drop so quickly?In America, a pesticide, a chemical, called DDT was harming the falcon eggs. Luckily, DDT is no longer used. The number of falcons is rising now.One unusual thing about falcons is that they like to make their nests (巢) in high places. In nature, they often nest on mountaintops and on the sides of cliffs (悬崖). Falcons have also got used to life in cities. They nest on tall buildings and bridges in cities. The height of these nests is from 50 to 200 feet in the air.They also like to return to the same nesting place every year. Both the mother and father falcons help to raise the babies. The mother stays more time in the nest. The father hunts and brings back food for her and the babies.Many people all around the country work very hard to help falcons live to adulthood. There are even video cameras fixed up in many places. This way, people can make sure the birds and their eggs stay protected.

I’d like you to marry my daughter.” Sun smiled and said, “Yes, I’m powerful. Without me, nothing grows.

Kim suggests picking one space and always doing your work there. “Make that space as comfortable as possible,” he said.In his room, Zech set up a cubby(小房间).He has a place where he can make tea.

New research now suggests that has already happened over the past years.A study coming out in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science found that in most poor countries, higher temperatures are more than 90% likely to have resulted in a fall in economic output(经济产量), compared to a world without global(全球的)warming. The influence has been less big in richer countries—with some even benefiting(获益)from higher temperatures.“We’re not saying that global warming created inequality(不公平),” says Noah S. Diffenbaugh, the writer of the study and a professor at Stanford University who studies climate change. But “global warming has slowed down the improvement”. The poore st countries are facing the worst influence of rising temperatures—for which they are least responsible, he adds.The new study builds on past research. A 2015 study in the journal Nature predicted that the average income(平均收入))in the poorest countries will be 25% lower by 2100 compared to aworld without warming, while some of the richest countries—like the USA—could experience an increase in income. And a report from IPCC, the UN’s climate science body, showed that if global temperatures rise more than 1.5℃ by the end of the century, poor countries will likely face very serious challenges, including the disappearance of whole communities and millions of early deaths. “They will suffer the most, as they are already,” said Mary Robinson, who used to be a UN Special Envoy on Climate Change and a president of Ireland.The influence is greater elsewhere, especially in Sub-Saharan, African countries including Sudan, Burkina Faso and Niger, where climate change has driven the average income more than 20% lower. “There are a number of ways by which temperature influences economic activities,” says Diffenbaugh What’s clear is that, for poor countries, the news is all bad.24.According to the text, warmer temperatures ________.A.are mainly caused by poor countries B.may bring advantages to rich countries C.had no influence on the world before D.can improve the poorest people’s health 25.What does “suffer” underlined in Paragraph 4 most probably mean in Chinese?A.供应B.犹豫C.遭受D.谋利26.Which of the following will face great economic problems caused by climate change? A.The UN. B.The USA.C.Ireland. D.Burkina Faso. 27.What is the main idea of the text?A.Climate change will make poor countries poorer.B.We must take action to deal with climate change.C.Climate change can cause millions of early deaths.D.People make good predictions about climate change.28.From which is the text most probably taken?A.A geography textbook. B.A health magazine.C.A research paper. D.A storybook.Passage 7Christmas was coming. There was a man in rags (衣衫褴褛) walking in a hurry on the road. You might think he was a beggar (乞讨者), but actually he was an artist. His name was Vincent Willem Van Gogh. With a painting he had just finished, the poor Vincent entered a painting store.“Can you buy this painting to help me pay the rent (房租)?” Vincent asked in a low voice. “I don’t really like your painting, but it is said that you are hard-working and I want to help you, Here is five francs (法郎),” the storekeeper answered.Although it was only five francs, Vincent was very happy. He took the money and said thanks, thinking that he could buy some food and pay the rent.Near his home, Vincent saw a little girl in old clothes standing in the snow.The girl smiled sadly at the artist asking for some help. Clearly, the girl was hungry and cold.“Poor child! I should help her,” he thought.Vincent put the five francs into the girl’s hands, completely forgetting that he still needed money to pay the rent. Before the girl said thanks to him, Vincent had hurried away with his empty stomach.29.The story happened in ________.A.spring B.summer C.autumn D.winter 30.Vincent Willem Van Gogh was a(n) ________.A.beggar B.artist C.farmer D.storekeeper 31.The storekeeper gave Vincent five francs because ________.A.he thought Vincent was a beggar B.he liked Vincent’s painting very much C.he wanted to help the hardworking man D.he wanted to make friends with Vincent 32.What did Vincent do to help the poor girl?A.He painted a picture for her.

中考英语题型冲刺 阅读理解(含解析)-人教版初中九年级全册英语试题

阅读理解一、阅读理解(共24小题)1. We know the mosquito very well. Mosquitoes fly everywhere. They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide that she loves you. She? Yes,she. It‘s true that male mosquito doesn’t bite(咬) and only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn‘t like your b lood,she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you,just remember you are chosen. You’re different from the others!If the mosquito likes you,she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites,you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. By the time the itching begins,and she has flown away.And then what happens? Well,after her delicious dinner,the mosquito feels tired. She just wants to find a place to have a good rest. There,on a leaf or a wall, she begins to lay eggs,hundreds of eggs.1. “Mosquito” means _______ in Chinese.A. 苍蝇B. 蜻蜓C.跳蚤D.蚊子2. We know mosquitoes very well because ___________.A. they can be found easilyB. they fly here and thereC. there are many kinds of themD. they can fly3.

The itching begins after the mosquito bites you.B. You feel terrible when the mosquito bites you.C. Mosquitoes use blood to lay eggs.D. All the mosquitoes don‘t like to bite people for blood.2. My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his CF & thr 3:- kids FTF ILNY, its gr8.Can you understand this sentence? If you can't, don't feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of puterized munication found on Internet or cellphones. To newers, it can look like a pletely foreign language. So, what is the "translation" of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a plete wasteof time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend,and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it's great.Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming(破坏)the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes cxan be seenin students' writing. They fear the language could bee corrupted(面目全非的).Everyone should just relax, say linguists(语言学家). They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lostart of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says, "Kidswho are now doing text messaging, , and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents."Linguist James Millroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollarthat when today's teenagers bee tomorrow's parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot bee "corrupted"; they simply change to meet the new needs.However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, "I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it's important that they get across to theirpupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future."Perhaps we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn't use text language in my homework. Texting is just for fun"1. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?A. To give an example of a foreign language.B. To show an example of creative methods.C. To express worries about using Netspeak.D. To lead in the topic of Netspeak.2. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Cynthia McVey points out teenagers can deal with Netspeak properly.B. Geoffrey Nunberg believes Netspeakers can write Standard English.C. David Crystal thinks Netspeak helps develop the habit of writing.D. James Milroy says that language is changing and improving.3. The expression "bet your bottom dollar" in Paragraph 5 means ______.A. be fairly sureB. be greatly surprisedC. think it a pityD. find it interesting4. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Netspeak: A Widely-Used Language on InternetB. Is Netspeak Harming the English Language?C. Is Netspeak Helpful in Language Learning?D. Netspeak: Advantages and Disadvantages3. What do you do if you're stranded(处于困境的)on a lonely island? Surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. Your best chanceof doing this is to draw the attention of a passing plane.Body signals(信号)Pilots from different countries understand body signals if they have the correct training. When you wave your arms up and down in a straight line, it means "yes". When you point downwards and swing your arm from side to side, it means "no". If you want the pilot to know that it's safe to land, push yourhands out in front of you and bend(弯曲)your knees. If you want to say thatit's not safe to land, put your arms in the air and move them to one side.Smoke signalsThe smoke from a fire can be seen from far away, so it's a good way to draw attention. If the weather is dry, it isn't hard to start a fire. Remember, however, that fires can be very dangerous if they get out of control. Neverlight a fire unless you're sure that it can't spread. If the ground is dark,light smoke can be seen more easily. Green grass and leaves produce lightsmoke.Ground-to-air signalsIt's a good idea to build some signals, too. Uselarge pieces of wood to make the symbols(标记). If you can't find any wood, use earth. Some useful symbols are:F "I need food and water."II "I need medicine."I "I am badly hurt."X" I am unable to move from here."Pilots' repliesIf the pilot lowers the plane's wings from side to side, this means "message received and understood". (At night,the pilot flashes the plane's green lights.) If the pilots flies the plane in a clockwise circle, this means "message received but not understood".(At night, the pilot flashes the plane's red lights.)However, there is no signal which means "message not received". Why not?1.Which picture means "it's not safe land"?2. What can we learn from the passage?A. Swinging your arm from side to side means "yes".B. If the ground is dark, light smoke can't be seen.C. If you need some medicine, make a symbol "II".D. The pilots make replies with a blue light at night.3. What is the passage mainly about?A. The explanation of building signals on an island.B. The importance of making signals on an island.C. Ways of sending out signals on a lonely island.D. Ways of receiving signals from a lonely island4. Spending two or three hours playing outdoors each day can reduce achild’s chance of being short-sighted, a research shows. It challenges (挑战)the belief that short-sightedness is caused by puter use, watching TV or reading in weak light.The Australian government researchers believe that sunlight is good for people’s eyes. They pared the vision(视力) and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia. In all, 30% of the Singaporean children were short-sighted—this rate(比率) was ten times higher than Australian children.Both groups spent a similar amount of time reading, watching television and playing puter games. However, the Australian children spent an average(平均) of two hours a day outdoors—90 minutes more than the Singaporean children.Professor(教授) Ian Morgan, from the Australian Research Council’s Vision Centre, said, “Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. We’re also seeing more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world—and the main reason may be that city children spend less time outdoors.”Daylight can be hundreds of times brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside prevent us from being short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical(化学物质) which stops the eyeball from growing out of shape and prevents people being short-sighted.So be outdoors. It doesn’t matter if that time is spent having a piic or playing sports.1. How much time did the Singaporean children spend outdoors on average everyday in the research?A. 2 hours.B. 90 minutes.C. 1 hour.D. 30 minutes.2. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?A. Why people bee short-sighted.B. Why natural light has a special chemical.C. Why playing outside is good for one’s eyesight.D. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light.3. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. People will all bee short-sighted after they begin to go to school.B. Playing outdoors for 2 or 3 hours every day can help protect your eyesight.C. Children in Australia are more likely to get short-sighted than those in Singapore.D. If you spend two or three hours playing outside each day, you won’t get short-sighted.5. Everyone needs friends. There is an old saying, “Friends are God’s wayof taking care of us.” But how do you find real friendship an d keep it?The American writer Sally Seamans tells young students some smart ways to find friends. Sally says finding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed(种子) and take care of it to make it grow.First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind andpatient(耐心). For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend should listento your plaints and do his best to help. To make a good friend, you cannot betoo shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives.But things cannot always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. When there is no one ar ound, have an honest talk. If he or she doesn’twant to talk, you could write a letter.There are three steps to being friends again:Tell him or her how you are feeling; say what your friend has done wrong, and explain why you did this or that. Remember that friendship is the most important thing in your life.1. Sally wants to tell students the ways to .A. find friendsB. plant treesC. gethappy D. keep fit2. What makes good friends? A good friend should .A. be lovely and coolB. be kind and patientC. have lots of moneyD. have good looks3. According to the text, you can ___________ your friend after a fight.A. buy a present forB. never say a word toC. have dinner withD. write a letter to4. What is the best title of the text?A. Teenagers and friendship.B. The good friends around you.C. The trouble of growing up.D. The care and keeping of friends.6. ▲Two-year-old hero Ye Chengfeng saved most of his family from a deadly gas leak(泄漏). As his grandfather lay dead, the child woke up his grandmother and saved five other family members from deaths.▲More and more British school kids use their mobile phones to cheat(作弊) in exams. They use them to send messages to get the answers. So far this year, 1,013 students were caught cheating with mobile phones. Teachers are now teaching themselves so they can find the cheats. They also ask the students to hand the phones in before exams.▲A new study shows that girl chimps(黑猩猩) are faster to use tools than boys! Experts found that girl chimps in East Africa use sticks to dig in the soil two years earlier than boys do. But they don’t know why. Girls watched their moms work, but boys climbed trees. Yes, human girls always learn to write and draw first, but boys often run and play balls earlier than girls.▲In Germany, doctors have three ways to help kids who are addicted(上瘾的) to the Internet. First, learning art — Kids learn painting or singing; second, doing sports — Kids do swimming or horse riding. The last one is to go into nature — Kids plant flowers and grow vegetables. Doctors want kids to find other ways to have fun rather than surf the Internet.1. How many family members did 2-year-old Ye Chengfeng save?A. Six.B. Five.C. Three.D. Four.2.

Nowadays more and more people care about the exploitation(开采)of the natural resources, such as oil. Though there’re m any kinds of resources, with the fast increase of population and the increase of many more factories, themore we use, the fewer there will be left for the future. Oil is getting less and less year after year. It’s said that oil can last for only 50 years.Natural gas perhaps will last about 38 years.Oil can be used in many ways and it’s difficult to imagine what the modern world will be like without oil. But oil isn’t easy to find and get out of the earth. Men must study the rocks. When they think the rocks in a certain place may have oil, a metal tower is built. A machine in the tower cuts a hole down into the ground. At the same time, a steel pipe(钢管)is pushed down to stop the sides from falling in and to keep out water. At last if the men are right, usually the oil rushes up the sides with great force(力量)by the pressure(压力)of the gas in the top of the rock, and it rushes high into the air. If theoil catches a light, there will be a terrible fire. So a kind of cover is fixed on the top of the pipe, and the oil can run out through taps(活塞).If we are near the middle of the oil field, we can also get gas. Such gas is sent through pipes to towns far away and used in houses and factorieslike coal gas.Today oil is under pressure as never before. The price of oil keeps rising all the time. In many countries, the governments encourage people to save oil as much as possible.1 . The word “resource” in the passage means___________. .A.资源B.现象C.商品 D. 资金2. Which is the right order of the exploitation of oil?a. push down a steel pipe.b. study the rocks.c. build a metal tower.d. oil rushes up.A. b, c, d, aB. b, a, c, dC. b, c, a, dD. c, a, d, b3.Which of the following can be true according to (根据)the passage?A. Coal gas can’t be used in houses and factories.B. Oil is very important in the modern world.C. Many governments encourage people to waste oil as much as possible.D. It’s very e asy to get the oil.4. The oil is getting______________ but its price is getting _____________.A. more and more, lower and lowerB. less and less, higher and higherC. less and less, lower and lowerD. more and more, higher and higher5.The governments are ________ because the resources are under pressure.A. excitedB. happyC.worried D. patient8. When did you last see a polar(极地的)bear? On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These “Polar Bears” are people who meet frequently in winter to swim in freezing cold water. That day, air temperature was 3℃, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The member s of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island , New York are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group, this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body’s temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point outthat there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits(or advantages) of cold-water swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统) because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming.The main benefits(or advantages) of cold-water swimming are probably mental (精神的). The Polar Bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says,“When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away(漂走).”1. The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that __________.A. they must reach the age of 60B. they should be easy to make friends withC. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold monthsD. they must agree to swim outdoors from November through February2. Doctors __________.A. encourage people to take part in cold-water swimming activelyB. point out the possible danger of blood illness during cold-water swimmingC. believe swimming is helpful both in winter and in summerD. have different ideas about the medical effects of cold-water swimming3. According to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that __________.A. you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blueB. cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winterC. cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously highD. Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water4. The Polar Bears like to swim all the year round, for __________.A. they can remain youngB. it is an easy way to keep the body warm in winterC. they find it enjoyable and interestingD. they might meet fewer troubles in life5. The passage is mainly about __________.A. a group of cold-water swimming loversB. the polar bears' lifeC. doctors' ideas about cold-water swimmingD. the requirements of the Polar Bear Club9. In modern society there is a lot of disagreement about petition. Some value it highly, believing that it is good for social progress. Others say that petition is bad. It sets one person against another. And it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who believe that their self-worth depended on how well they did at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death matters. In their single-minded dream of success, the development of many other human qualities(品质) is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire(渴望) to succeed, others take a different attitude. In a culture which values only the winners, they are strongly against petition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who are under petitive pressures(压力) from their parents or society. They are always toldto be the top ones, but they think it’s really hard. When I teach these young people, I often find them in a desire to fail. They seem to search for failure (失败) by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try. If I had tried and lost, that would mean a lot. ”Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true petitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief. They think one’s self-respect depends on how well one does pared with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this fear begins to dissolve (消除) can we discover a new meaning in petition.1. Why do some people wele petition according to the passage?A. It pushes society forward.B. It improves one’s abilities.C. It develops human qualities.D. It builds up friendly relationship.2. The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means _____.A. those who try their best to winB. those who value petition most highlyC. those who depend on others most for successD. those who are against petition most strongly3. Which of the following may the writer agree to?A. Every effort should be paid back.B. petition should be encouragedC. Winning should be a life-and-death matter.D. Fear of failure should be taken away in petition.4. What does this passage mainly talk about?A. petition helps to set up self-respect.B. petition is bad for social development.C. Ideas about petition are different among people.D. Failures are necessary experiences in petition.10. Imagine you’re at a party full of strangers. You’re nervous. Who are these people? How do you start a conversation? Luckily, you’ve got a thing that sends out energy at small chips(芯片)in everyone’s name tag(标签).The chips send back name, job, hobbies-whatever. Making new friends bees simple.This hasn’t quite happened in real life. But the world is already experiencing a new age of using RFID technology.An RFID tag with a small chip can be fixed in a prod uct, under your pet’s skin(皮肤), even under your own skin. Some RFID tags have no energy source because they do not need it. The energy es from a scanning device(扫描装置), which sends out energy and starts up the tag immediately.Such a tag carries information to that object, and the information can be renewed. Already, RFID technology is used for recognizing(识别) each car or truck on the road and it might appear in your passport. Doctors may put a smallchip under the skin to get a patient’s medical records. At a nightclub in Paris or in New York the same chip might get you to pay for the bill with the wave of an arm.Take a step back: 10 or 12 years ago, you would have heard about the ing age of puting. One example always seemed to surface: Your refrigerator would know when you needed to buy more milk. The idea was that puter chips could be put everywhere and send information in a smart network that would make life simpler. RFID tags are a small part of this situation. “The world is going to be a connected s et of personal small devices.” predicts Dr. J. Reich. But some people are nervous about the possibilities of such technology. It goes too far tracking(跟踪)school kids through RFID tags, they say.When Marconi invented radio, he thought it would be used for ship-to-shore munication, not for pop music. Who knows how RFID and other technologies will be used in the future. Here’s a wild guess: Not for buying milk.1.The article is intended to______.A. warn people of the possible risks in adopting RFID technologyB. explain the benefits brought about by RFID technologyC. convince people of the uses of RFID technologyD. predict the applications of RFID technology2. We know from the passage that with the help of RFID tags, people_____.A. will have no trouble getting data about othersB. will have more energy for conversationC. will have more time to make friendsD. won’t feel shy at parties any longer3. Passive RFID tags chiefly consist of____.A. scanning devicesB. radio wavesC. batteriesD. chips4. Why are some people worried about RFID technology?A. Because children will be tracked by strangers.B. Because market petition will bee fiercer.C. Because their private lives will be greatly affected.D. Because customers will be forced to buy more products.11. There were two McDonald’s – Mac and Dick – and they were brothers. In 1948 they owned a restaurant in California. They liked working in the restaurant, but they got tired of the customers(顾客) ordering so many different things to eat.“If we gave customers a smaller menu(菜单), we could make some of the food before they came, and they wouldn’t have to wait so long for their meals,”said one of the brothers. The other brother agreed and said, “If we made the customers e to the counter(柜台), we wouldn’t need any waiters andwaitresses(女服务员). We could also use plastic plates so there wouldn’t be any washing-up.”These were such good ideas that the McDonald’s brothers used them, and the customers were very pleased. They got their meals very quickly – in less than a minute – and they paid only 15 cents(分) for hamburgers and 10 cents forfries(油炸食品). The first McDonald’s restaurant had no seats for customers tosit on. This meant that people had to take their food away, and that no one had to clean up any tables after them.Then a man called Ray Kroc came to the brothers and asked to buy their business. They agreed to sell it to him for $27 million. After that, people paid Ray Kroc to open their own restaurants using the McDonald’s name and menu.B efore long, there were McDonald’s restaurants all over the United States, and nowadays, they are all over the world – even in China and Russia. The most successful McDonald’s business is in Hong Kong of China. The Hong Kong McDonald’s sells more hamburgers every day than any other McDonald’s anywhere else in the world.McDonald’s restaurants are so successful because children love going to them. They like the food, and they like the toys and games they can get at McDonald’s.1.The McDonald brothers offered customers fewer kinds of foods so that _____. A.they didn’t need waiters or waitressesB.they could use plastic platesC. customers could get their meals quicklyD.customers would pay less.2. Customers“paid only 15 cents for hamburgers”means the hamburgers were___.A. expensiveB. newC. cheapD. worth a lot less3. The first McDonald’s customers took their food away because_____.A.
