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。
Have you ever been sad because you failed in something? If so, please remember, for often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Here is a story to tell you why.
One day a little boy decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program. As he was working, a couple of boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a deep hole all the way through the earth!” th e boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that it was impossible to do it. Then they left.
The little boy kept on digging and digging. Suddenly, a few small colorful stones caught his eyes. He collected them and put them into a glass jar (罐) patiently. Humming (哼唱) a song, he went on digging. The jar was full soon. Then he talked to himself calmly and proudly, “Maybe I can't finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I have found in the process (过程) of digg ing!”
The boy's goal (目标) was too difficult, but it did cause him to go on, in other words, to cause us to keep working!
Not every goal will be achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you can't a chieve your goal, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look what I've found along the way!

That night, Sue quarreled with her mother, and she ran out of the house. Since she left in a hurry, she didn't take any money with her.
When she passed a noodle shop, she suddenly felt very hungry. She wished for a bowl of noodles, but she had no money. The owner saw her standing outside and asked her if she would like a bowl of noodle. She nodded but then she said that she didn't have any money.
“Okay, I'll treat you.” the owner said. A few minutes later, the owner brought her a steaming bowl of noodles. After eating some bites, Sue cried.
“What is it?” the owner asked.
“Nothing. I am just touched by your k indness! Even a stranger on the street gives me a bowl of noodles, but my mother chased me out of the house after a quarrel. She is so cruel!”
“Girl, why did you think so? Think again. I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you were touched. Your mother had raised you since you were very born, why weren't you grateful and argued with your mom instead?”

3.阅读理解
One day a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn,t know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed.
Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes in one pot, eggs in the second pot, and ground(研磨过的)coffee beans in the third pot.
He then let them sit and boil, without saying a word to his daughter.
After twenty minutes he turned off the burners. He took the potatoes out of the pot and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. He then ladled the coffee out and placed it in a cup. Turning to her, he asked. “Daughter, what do you see?”
“Potatoes, eggs, and coffee,” she hastily replied.
“Look closer,” he said. She did and noticed that potatoes were soft. After pulling off the shell of the egg, she found the hard-boiled egg. Finally, the rich aroma from the coffee brought a smile to her face.
“Father, what does this mean?”She asked.
He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and coffee beans had each faced the same
adversity– the boiling water.
However, each one reacted differently.
The potato went in strong, hard, and unrelenting, but in boiling water, it became soft and weak.
The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid interior until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard.
However, the ground coffee beans were unique. After they met the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new.
“Which are you,” he asked his daughter. “Are you a potato, an egg, or a coffee bean? ”

D
After 21 years of marriage,my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie.She said."I love you but I know the other woman loves you and would love to spend some time with you."
The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my mother, who had been a widow(寡妇)for 19 years,but the needs of my work and my three children had made it impossible to visit her regularly.
That night I called to invite her to go out for dinner and a movie."What's wrong? Are you well?" she asked at once.My mother is the type of woman who prefers to think that a late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign of bad news."I think that it will be pleasant to be with you,"I replied."Just two of us."She thought about it for a moment,and then said,"I would like that very much."
That Friday after work.I drove over directly to pick her up.When I arrived at her house,I noticed ▲. She had curled her hair and was wearing a nice dress.Her smile was as bright as an angel's.
We went to a restaurant that.although not elegant(高雅的),was very nice and comfortable.My mother took my arm as if she were the First Lady.After we sat down,I had to read the menu.When I lifted my eyes and saw Morn sitting there looking at me.A nostalgic smile was on her face.She said."It was I who used to read the menu when you were small." "Then it's time that you should relax and let me return the favor(恩惠)."I smiled back.During the dinner, we had an agreeable conversation—nothing special,but catching up on recent happenings in each other's life.We talked so much that we missed the movie.As we arrived at her house later, she said."I'll go out with you again, but only if you let me invite you."I agreed.
A few days later, my mother died of a heart attack.It happened so suddenly that I did not have a chance to do anything for her.Some time later, I received a letter with a short note

故选B。
(2)细节题,从第三段My mother is the type of woman who prefers to think that a late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign of bad news可知作者妈妈接到电话表示震惊,后文说到深夜给妈妈打电话,意味着不好的事情,所以妈妈表示担心,故选A。
(3)语境理解题,从When I arrived at her house,I noticed ▲. She had curled her hair and was wearing a nice dress.Her smile was as bright as an angel's可知,当作者到达时,妈妈已经等在那里了,表明妈妈当时迫不及待和高兴的心情,故选D。

【解析】【分析】文章大意:纽约比加州早3个小时,但它不会让加州变慢,也不会让纽约跑得快。
他们都是在属于自己的“时区”工作。
有人在25岁时成为CEO,50岁去世,而有人在50岁时成为CEO,活到90岁。
在这个世界上,每个人都是根据自己的时区工作的,人们只能按照自己的步调来做事。
所以不要羡慕你周围的人们,也不要嘲笑他们,他们在自己的时区,而你在你的时区。
生活就是等待合适的时机去行动,坚持、坚强,忠于自己,在你自己的时区里战斗。
(1)推理计算题。
根据New York is 3 hours ahead of California,纽约比加州早3个小时,可知当纽约是8点时加州应是8—3=5,所以加州应是5点,故答案选B。
(2)推理判断题。
A根据Someone is still single, while someone else got married and waited 10 years having a child. There is another who had a baby within a year of marriage.可知文中说了有些人单身有些人结婚,有些人等10年才有孩子,而有些人结婚一年就有了孩子,但并没有提到说我们应该早点结婚,故A选项错误。
B根据Life is about waiting for the right moment to act. Hold on, be strong, and stay true to yourself .Fight in your time zone.可知,生活就是等待合适的时机去行动,坚持、坚强,忠于自己,在你自己的时区里战斗,所以并不是说你落后了,就不必努力了,故B选项错误。
C根据Obama retires(退休)at 55, but Trump starts at 70.可知,奥巴马在55岁退休,但特朗普在70岁才开始,所以说奥巴马比特朗普年轻就开始了他的总统职位是正确的,故B选项正确。
D根据Life is about waiting for the right moment to act. Hold on,可知,生活就是等待合适的时机去行动,而不是等待正确的时区,故D选项错误。
本题问哪一个选项是正确的,故答案选C。
(3)词义猜测题。
根据上文People around you might seem to go ahead of you; some might seem to be behind you.你周围的人可能会走在你前面,有些人可能会落在你的后面,以及Don't envy them or laugh at them.不要…他们或者嘲笑他们,可知此处是与上文对应的,对于落后你的人不要嘲笑他们,那么对于走在你前面的人也应该是不要“羡慕、嫉妒”他们,故答案选C。
(4)细节理解题。
根据Life is about waiting for the right moment to act. Hold on, be strong, and stay true to yourself .Fight in your time zone. 生活就是等待合适的时机去行动,坚持、坚强,忠于自己,在你自己的时区里战斗,可知,如果你现在学习不好,你应该努力工作,等待合适的时机,故答案选D。
(5)标题归纳题。
通过对整篇文章的理解可知,每个人都是根据自己的时区工作的,人们只能按照自己的步调来做事。
所以不要羡慕你周围的人们,也不要嘲笑他们,他们在自己的时区,而你在你的时区。
所以生活就是等待合适的时机去行动,坚持、坚强,忠于自己,在你自己的时区里战斗。
故答案选C。
【点评】阅读考题中细节理解题和猜测词义题属于客观题;主旨大意题和推理判断题属于主观题。
针对不同类型的题目,要有不同的解决策略。
对于客观题,阅读时关注文章的细节,如时间,地点或一些具体数字,在选择答案时,务必从原文中找到确切的依据。
对于
主观题,不仅要弄懂文章字面的意思,更重要的是要知道文章潜在的含义,和作者所给的提示。
同时要对文章的含义和作者的暗示作合理的猜测和推论。

He said that it would get harder to breathe if I didn't stop smoking, and that one day I might have to be seriously ill in bed. That made me so scared enough that I decided to give a try.

"Never set foot in this house again!" shouted father. "BANG" the door closed behind me. With tears in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.
The street lights were shining, causing rather sad-feeling. I wandered aimlessly.
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.
But now … I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or becau se dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. He always put his opinions on me. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
I wandered the streets, without any aim in my mind. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets. When I finally reached the apartment where I lived, I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself: "Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?"
In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. All the lights were off except father's.
Dad was always like this. He has got used to arguing with me. Maybe he didn't know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never said sorry to me. But after an argument he always came into my room secretly and made sure whether I was asleep.
The light was s till on. "Am I wrong?" I whispered, maybe…With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love is second to none.
