The British woman has been doing it for 80 years. She has sent more than 1,500 letters to her pen pal in America.The hobby started in 1942. Jenny, then 12 years old, was reading a magazine. Some ads in the magazine were asking for pen pals. One of them caught Jenny’s eye. It was from Alice Miller. She lived in America and was also 12. “It was exciting for me,” Jenny said. “I sat down at once, wrote a letter, put it in an envelope—together with a picture of myself —and posted it.”Jenny spent every day waiting for the postman. Two weeks later—which felt like a lifetime—a reply dropped through the letter box. “I was overjoyed,” Jenny said. “There was a letter and a picture of my new friend. She was all the way on the other side of the world!”Jenny and Alice wanted to learn more about each other. They kept writing. The two found that they had a lot in common. They liked the same books and the same films.However, both Jenny and Alice were too poor to afford a plane ticket. It was not until 1987 that they met. “I was glad to see the person I had been writing to for 40 years,” Jenny said. “We had a big hug and then sat down, chatting for hours.”Now in their nineties, Jenny and Alice are still writing to each other.

It is rightly said that, “A friend to all is a friend to none.” With time and growing trust, some people get really close to each other and remain true friends. However, every friend is not the same type. Some friends are patient and helpful while others are cheerful and caring. Here provides information on these types of friendship and different kinds of friends.Animal Friends. It has been rightly said, “ Animals are such wonderful friends, as they ask no questions.” Humans and animals have been knowing to have a special connection with each other since old time. It is without reason that somebody has said that “A dog is a man’s best friends.”Internet Friends. The Internet has become not only important but also a second world for many people. Not only people use it for business and work, it has also become a popular way of communicating with others. Online friends are those people who have known each other through the Internet. Making Internet friends is similar to making pen pals.Pen Friends. They are more or less like e-friends. It was quite a popular way of making friends in different parts of the world before Internet came into sight. This kind of friendship is developed when people write letters to each other through mails. Mostly, it helps people to learn different countries, different lifestyle and to even stay away from loneliness.Women Friends. It is special for men to have female friends. Sometimes many males seem very popular, but they hardly find a “brother” to talk about their secrets. At this time, talking with a woman friend will surely help. With a female, friendship can be really rewarding if you are true to each other.13．The underlined sentence “A friend to all is a friend to none” in Paragraph 1 means ________A．善交者，朋友遍天下。

2025中考备考初中英语阅读理解人与自我主题语境相关真题精选专项训练AAuggie's StorySleepI'd been reading for over an hour and sleep still didn't come. It was almost two a. m. Everyone else was asleep. I had my flashlight (手电筒) on under the sleeping bag. Maybe the light was why I couldn't sleep, but I was too afraid to turn it off. What had happened kept coming back to my mind.When we got back to the camp, no one noticed we'd been gone. The teachers and all the other kids were still watching the movie. They didn't know how something bad had just happened to me and Jack. It's so strange how that can be, how you could have a night that's the worst in your life, but to everybody else it's just a usual night.Amos, Miles and Henry brought us back to our seats. Then they returned to their own seats. In a way, everything was exactly as we had left it. The sky was the same. The movie was the same. Everyone's faces were the same. Mine was the same.But something was different. Something had changed.Home"So, do you want to hear about the bad part or the good part first?" I asked Mum."Whatever you want to talk about," she answered."Well, except for last night, I had a fantastic time," I said. "I feel like they ruined (毁坏) the whole trip for me." "No, sweetie. Don't let them do that to you. You were there for more than forty-eight hours, and that awful part lasted one hour. Don't let them take that away from you, okay?""I know." I nodded. "But do I always have to worry about bad guys like that? Like when I grow up, is it always going to be like this?""There are always going to be bad guys in the world, Auggie," she said, looking at me. "But I really believe there are more good people on this earth than bad people, and the good people watch out for each other and take care ofeach other. Just like Jack was there for you. And Amos. And those other kids.""Oh yeah, Miles and Henry," I answered. "They were amazing, too. It's very strange because Miles and Henry haven't even really been very nice to me at all during the year.""Sometimes people surprise us," she said, rubbing the top of my head.1.Why couldn't Auggie fall asleep?A. He kept thinking about something.B. He was doing bedtime reading.C. He was looking for his flashlight.D.

Jack would not be his friend any more4.What do we know about Miles and Henry?A. They ruined Auggie's whole trip.B. They took something away from Auggie.C. They were nice to Auggie this time.D. They were Auggie's best friends.BAs we know, eating vegetables is good for us. Why do some people like them but others don't? A new study has found that other people's likes and dislikes could be a reason. According to the research, people who eat vegetables and show a clear dislike for them can influence others.People may make facial expressions (面部表情) when eating. How does it affect a person watching them? A team of scientists in the UK did a study. They asked more than 200 young women to watch videos of other adults eating broccoli (西兰花). The people in the videos had different expressions while eating. They would smile, seemneutral (neither happy nor sad), or look disgusted.The study found that when people in the videos look disgusted while eating broccoli, people watching them began to like broccoli less. The opposite was not true, however. When someone had a smile while eating broccoli, people watching them did not like broccoli more.By watching others, humans learn which behaviors will be good for them. Scientists believe that people might avoid food that looks terrible. In this way, people can protect themselves from eating something bad or dangerous. The research focused only on adults, but the team believe that the results could also work for children. This means, if children see their parents not enjoying certain foods, including vegetables, they might not want to eat them either.How does the behavior of adults influence children's choices of food? The team said they hope to understand more about it. This could help find ways to encourage children to eat more healthy foods.5.What does the underlined word "disgusted" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Excited.B. Amazed.C. Unhappy.D. Untidy.6.What's the result of the study?A. People may prefer the food others like.B. Children dislike eating certain vegetables.C.

As one of the members of a pop group, Gill had lived a busy life but the farmgave him a way to relax.Although farming was new to him, Gill took the challenge and his experiences helpedhim write his book Ace and the Animal Heroes. The story follows Ace, whose lifechanges greatly when he moves to the countryside. After trying on a pair of magicalwellies (长筒靴), Ace realizes he can speak to the animals, who make up their minds toprotect the farm.Gill says that if he had his own pair of magical wellies, he would love to speak to wildlife, especially the wild deer(鹿) that sometimes appear near his farm. As they have no owners, Gill feels like he's sharing their home. "It's really interesting to hear what they're thinking and know where they're at," he said.Gill got his ideas for writing from the animals on his family farm. His children, Ace and Chiara, helped out withhis book. Together, Gill's family made sure that the pictures in the book looked like the animals they'd been based on. He said, "All of those have been really great to piece the whole book together."25.What did Gill decide to do ten years ago?A. Live a busy life.B. Start his own farm.C. Move to the city.D.

According to the United Nations (UN), every year around the world, about one billion (十亿) tons of food is wasted. At the same time, there are nearly one billion people who go hungry. Simply 1/4 of the food wasted is enough to keep them out of hunger. In addition, the wasted food produces over three billion tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), which speeds up climate (气候) change. What can we do to solve this food waste problem?One effective solution is balancing food production with demand (需求). In hotels and other similar places, special instruments should be used so that cooking specialists just prepare and cook food as it is ordered.Another effective solution is starting programs to reduce (减少) food waste. Stores and buyers can try their best to be creative in food waste reduction. For example, stores can provide customers with instructions telling them how to make full use of food. Buyers can try not fixing their eyes only on food of the best quality (质量). Sometimes, the food of non-top quality is also good enough to eat, or can be bought and then used to make delicious dishes.One of the hardest solutions to achieve is for each and every one to buy and prepare food with a plan of their own so that less food is wasted. Challenging as it is, the use of meal plans in preparing food can play an important role in ending food waste in the family.Food recycling is one of the known solutions. Efforts are now already in progress. Food that is not safe for humans to eat is recycled into other products such as animal feeds and clothing. Yet, there is still a long way to go and much for improvement in this area.In a word, food waste has been one of the biggest problems in the world that have influenced us greatly. Many solutions have been found and many more are yet to be worked out. If each of us can put in more efforts, food waste is sure to be reduced for the good of our future.29.According to the passage, what is a possible result of food waste?A. The problem of worldwide hunger.B. A big increase in food production.C. The speed-up of climate change.D. A sudden drop in population.30.What can we learn from the passage?A. Food recycling has been hugely successful.B. Buyers should give up non-top quality food.C. Stores should train people to make delicious dishes.D. Meal plans in the family are hard to put into practice.31.What is the passage mainly about?A. Benefits of reducing food waste.B. Solutions to the food waste problem.C. The importance of fighting food waste.D. The attitude to the food waste problem.IWhen considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn't have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening.Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn't bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met someearlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected.Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one's ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn't know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, "That really was fun" and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown.Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoys food is more difficult—you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it's impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It's for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out.32.You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________.A. buy expensive shoesB. order a delicious mealC. talk with friends for new ideasD. sit quietly in front of a television33.What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage?A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure.B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand.C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones.D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment.34.The words "psychic energy" in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________.A. attentionB. interestC. abilityD. knowledge35.The writer probably agrees that ________.A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growthB. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growthC. a worthy life depends on luck and environmentD. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy lifeJA young man with excellent grades wanted to get a job in a big company，He met the manager for the interview.The manager asked， "Who paid for your education？""My parents."

For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoys food is more difficult—you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it's impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It's for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out.1.You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________.A. buy expensive shoesB. order a delicious mealC. talk with friends for new ideasD. sit quietly in front of a television2.What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage?A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure.B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand.C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones.D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment.3.The words "psychic energy" in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________.A. attentionB. interestC. abilityD. knowledge4.The writer probably agrees that ________.A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growthB. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growthC. a worthy life depends on luck and environmentD. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy lifeBComputer scientist Mary has an idea for a new robot to help her work with children. How should it look? The robot should have arms to be able to lift things. And if it is going to communicate with people, it will also need a face. Scientists believe that giving a robot a face can make it seem more friendly. Humans would also like to pay more attention to robots with faces. But what kind?For Mary, she wants to make sure that her new robot doesn’t look too much like a human. She wants people to just treat it as a machine-person. If it looks more like a human than a machine, she thinks users might find it a bit creepy and feel afraid. Mary also believes that robot faces don't need to look a lot like ours. Her research shows that we can enjoy communicating with robots whether or not they look like humans, because our brains are able to look for faces. Just put two circles on top of a robot’s body, and we will see a face.Dave feels differently. He believes that although at first we might be afraid when seeing a robot with a lifelike face, we may soon get used to it. If robots are going to work closely with humans, they should look as much like us as possible. After all, faces are an important part of the way we communicate.To make his robots look as much like real people as possible, Dave invented a special skin (皮肤) for their faces. With this skin, robots can show human-like expressions and appear to be angry, sad, happy or surprised. Dave's robots are also programmed to copy expressions. How? Just imagine his robot is looking at you. The cameras in its eyes send pictures of your face to its central computer!5.Why do scientists think a robot needs a face?A. It will become more beautiful.B. It can do better in lifting things.C. It will pay more attention to children.D. It can better communicate with people.6.What does the underlined word "creepy" mean in paragraph 2?A. Uncomfortable to look at.B. Impossible to touch.C. Boring to talk to.D. Difficult to understand.7.Which of the following would Dave most probably agree with?A. People should treat robots as humans.B. Robots need to express their own feelings.C. Robots shouldn't look too much like humans.D. People can easily accept robots with a human face.8.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To explain the reasons why robots should have faces.B. To suggest what humans can do with robots with faces.C. To share ideas on what kind of faces robots should have.D. To show how scientists invent robots with different faces.CIs fake grass better than a living grass lawnWhat do you need to know ？• Fake grass is made from different types of plastics and used in gardens as well as sportsgrounds.• More and more people are using fake grass to replace living grass lawns （草坪） and cover other outdoor spaces.• One company selling fake grass has sold 50% more compared with last year.• Some people think fake grass is bad for wildlife and the environment ，and mustn't be sold.

B ecause deserts are so dry, they h ave no “quilt” to help stop the soil from going away. As a result, they may get very hot during the day with the sun shining, but don’t hold the heat overnight. Many deserts can quickly get cold once the sun goes down. Some deserts can reach temperatures of over 100 degrees F during the day and then drop below freezing (32 degrees F) during the night.The largest hot and dry desert in the world is the Sahara Desert in Northern Africa. The Sahara is a sandy desert with great sand hills. It covers over 3 million square miles of Africa. Other large deserts include the Arabian Desert in the Middle East, the Gobi Desert in Northern China and Mongolia, and Kalahari Desert in Africa. Animals that live in the desert are also used to needing little water. Many get all the water they need from the food they eat. Other animals keep water that they can use later. The camel stores up fat in its hump while other animals keep something they need in their tails.Only certain types of plants can live in the terrible environment of the desert. You won’t see a lot of tall trees in the desert. Most plants have a way to keep water in their leaves, or trunks so they can live a long time without water.Now deserts cover around 20% of the world’s l and, but they are growing. Thisis called desertification and is caused by different reasons including human activities. The Sahara Desert is growing larger and larger each year. What should we do with it ?1.How is the weather during the night in the desert?A. Hot.B. Cold.C. Cool.2.Where does the camel store up fat?A. In its hump.B. In its stomach.C. In its tail3.Why won't we see a lot of tall trees in the desert?A. Because of few people there.B. Because of the sun shining.C. Because of the terrible environment4..How much of the land do deserts cover in the world?A. One fifth.B. Less than 10%.C. Two fifths5. Is the Sahara Desert growing or not?A. Nobody knows it.B. It's growingC. It's not growing.1-5BACAB练习6Bury trip﹣﹣June 18th，2016We will be leaving the Perse School at 13：45．Please be at the school gate 10minutes early．If you are late，you may miss the bus and not be able to go!If you miss the bus，you won’t get your money back．The bus is planned to arrive in Bury at 14：30，although this depends on traffic．You will have free time to walk around and we will meet at the same location where we arrived at 17：15to return to the Perse School by about 18：00．Things to do Visit the AbbeyThe Abbey is the min （废墟）of a church which was built more than 1，000years ago．There are many nice gardens in it．And next to the Abbey，there is a big new church．Have a drink in the NutshellThis little bar is famous in Britain because it is officially （正式地）the smallestbar in the country．Good things are put in small bags，and the Nutshell serves some of the area’s finest beer，as well as fascinating photos．Have a look at a beer shopAt the Greene King shop you can taste and buy some of the

solve the population problem，our government carried out one﹣child policy （政策）before．When it is carried out for some time，many people not only see its advantages but also disadvantages．From 2016，two﹣child policy is put into effect．In my opinion，two﹣child policy is good．First of all，two﹣child policy is the gift for some only child．For some families，maybe the parents are only child and they also can have only child．Besides the loneliness of their child，when their child grows up and they grow older，their child marry an only child girl，the burden（负担）on their child and his wife is tooheavy．Their child and his wife have to take care of two couples．Usually，a young couple looking after an old couple is a little difficult．But if their parents have two children，they can share the burden of taking care of their parents．It would be much better．Secondly，two﹣child policy can guarantee （保证）the number of Chinese population．All in all，one﹣child policy has been out of date．And

with work and other things．He had never thought of his wife．The husband gave a big hug to the wife and said，“Over 50years，how I had allowed myself to miss your deep love for me．”Life does not last

to time during the meal，to see whether we get“liked”or not．We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal．Does that sound familiar to you？Do you do that often？If not，how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you？A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not so good．Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant．To test this，some researchers

A Chinese Communist Party statement gave a number of reasons for the change in policy. The statement said the change is meant to balance population development, stop a falling birth rate(出生率) and strengthen the country’s labor force(劳动力).China, with the largest population in the world, started the one –child policy in 1980. But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some families in the countryside could have two children, if the first-born child is a girl.In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.Jiang Quanbao, a teacher and population expert, explained how Chinese families react to the newest policy. “Too many young people in the cities are no longer interested i n having a second child,” he said. “People in the countryside are more interested. But some of them are already allowed to have two children. ”At the end of 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them have jobs. But the labor market population will drop in 35 years. That is to say, the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050. With the two-child policy, an increase in births can solve this problem.Boys and girls, what do you think of the two-child policy? Do you want to havea new-born brother or a sister?1. Why does the government plan to end the one-child policy?A. Because we need a larger population.B. Because millions of people have jobs.C. Because most families want to have a second child.D. Because a falling birth rate must be stopped.2. How do most young people in the cities react to the two-child policy?A. They support the policy.B. They don't think it is good.C. They're very interested.D. They're not interested any more.3. When will our country be seriously short of labor if the one-child policy continues?A. In 2015.B. In 2035.C. In 2050.D. In 20704. The Two-Children Policy mainly ______.A. helps solve the problems of aging population and labor shortages.B. doesn’t allow one couple to have two children.C. has a bad influence on one’s mental health.D. encourages one couple to have more than two children.5. More couples ______ the Two-Children Policy according to the passage.A. disagree withB. agree withC. don’t knowD. hate1-5 DDCAB。

专题2025中考备考初中英语阅读理解说明文真题精选专项训练AThe scientific method is used for simple experiments that students may do in the classroom or very difficult experiments that scientists are doing all over the world.It is a way of thinking that helps you to avoid drawing incorrect conclusions.There are usually four steps in the scientific method，including observation（观察），hypothesis（假设），experiment，and conclusion.The steps may not always be completed in the same order，but the first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation.For example，you had a sick stomach，and ate a candy bar.An hour later，you observed that you felt much better.Here，you can ask a question，such as，"What makes a sick stomach feel better？"The second step is to state a possible answer to the question，or a hypothesis，such as， "______"A good hypothesis includes three things：The explanation for the observations，it is able to be tested，and it will usually predict new outcomes or conclusions.The third step is the experiment，to test the hypothesis.An experiment is a test which will either challenge or support the hypothesis.The hypothesis will then be true or false.The final step is to think about what happened when you tested the hypothesis and draw a conclusion.The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis or it will not.If the results support the hypothesis，a conclusion can be written and you can share it with the rest of the world.If it does not support the hypothesis，you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.1.Which sentence best expresses the main idea of the passage？______A. How do the four basic steps in the scientific method work？B. What makes a good hypothesis based on the observation？C. The conclusion will always clearly support the hypothesis.D. Learning the scientific method may help students succeed in science.2.Which sentence should go in the empty box in Paragraph 3？______A. A candy bar makes a sick stomach feel better.B. It was the medicine you took an hour earlier that made you feel better.C. Eat a candy bar again，and see what happens to your sick stomach.D. Ask people if eating a candy bar has made a sick stomach feel better.3.What does the underlined word " it" in the last paragraph refer to（指的是）？______A. the hypothesisB. the conclusionC. the questionD. the observation4.Which of the following sentences about the experiment is TRUE？______A. An experiment is a test to always support the hypothesis.B. An experiment does not have to be part of the scientific method.C. An experiment is a test to either challenge or support a hypothesis.D. An experiment is only used when scientists are trying to prove a hypothesis.BWhat would happen if you tried to blow a soap（肥皂） bubble in below-freezing weather？Would it freeze and fall to the ground？Would you have to hit it with a stone to break it？These questions came into my mind one cold winter day.It was too cold to play in the snow，but it was a perfect time to experiment with blowing frozen bubbles.To blow frozen bubbles，I had to wait until the air outside was very cold.For this activity，that meant 10 degrees below 0 Fahrenheit or colder.I didn't have the bubble things that come in a bottle，so I used dish-washingsoap.Adding a drop of glycerin made the soap work even better.I chose a place out of the wind，and blew bubbles the same way I always do.I watched to see what would happen.Here's what I learned.If the temperature is low enough，the skin of the bubble frosts（结霜） over，becoming cloudy instead of clear.And what about those rainbow swirls（漩涡状物体） that you see in soap bubbles？The rainbow colors stay even（均匀的） when the bubbles frost，but they don't spin anymore.The bubbles still float in the air.They don't fall to the ground any faster than they would on a warm summer day.When these frozen bubbles break，they don't turn into tiny drops of soap as summer bubbles do.They turn into shiny rainbow pieces and fly slowly to the ground.Sometimes a frozen bubble will roll across the snow without breaking.If it breaks，it may leave a strong bubble skin on the ground.Leave the bubble alone and it may stay there for a long time.Sometimes could catch a bubble and hold it until the heat of my hand made it pop.I learned one other thing about blowing frozen bubbles.It's so much fun.I want to try it again next year!5.How does the writer begin the passage？______A. By comparing two types of bubbles.B. By describing the freezing cold weather.C. By asking some questions about the subject.D. By presenting the tools needed to do the experiment.6.What is this passage mainly about？______A. Making soap that can work even better.B. Making bubbles that will stay longer.C. Inventing a new kind of soap that makes clearer bubbles.D. Finding out what happens to bubbles in freezing temperatures.7.According to the passage，what will happen if you blow frozen soap bubbles？______A. Cold enough，the skin of the bubbles will stay clear.B. When the bubbles frost，the rainbow colors will spin faster.C. A frozen bubble may roll across the snow without breaking.D. When these frozen bubbles break，they turn into tiny drops of soap.8.What is the best title for the passage？______A. A science clubB. Broken bubblesC. A happy childD. Frozen bubblesCIf you grew up in an unusual family and felt limited by heavy thoughts, how would you change your life story? In the book Educated, the US writer Tara Westover shows us how she deals with hard times.The book talks about Westover's life. Her father had a junkyard (废品场) in Idaho, US. It's a very smallmountain village. Tara and her brothers and sisters worked every day. Before she turned 17, she had never traveled outside.

After reading the book, I come to feel the deepest thanks for my own family, and the education I got. Education allows girls like Westover to fly like birds toward their own goals. It allows us to get a different view, find new experiences, better understand others and explore the wider world.

A growing number of foreigners have even chosen to live in China for its culture.Interested in Chinese classical literature, Canadian artist Brandon Collins-Green or Lin Buran in Chinese expresses his understanding of A Dream of the Red Chamber by Cao Xueqin and Chinese poems through thousands of paintings. Often painting throughout the night, he has created more than 4,200 works. Living alone in the center of Nanchang, he has come a long way since he first came here in 2015 to study ancient Chinese literature.Brandon loves learning about the lifestyle of ancient Chinese people. "So far, I have read the novel three times, translated most of its poems, songs, lantern riddles (谜语), and dialogues into English, and completed over 1 million words of articles and 2,000 related paintings during my PhD studies," said Brandon with pride and satisfaction.Timur Kuvatov, director-general and editor-in-chief of the Kazakhstan Today News Agency, is a Chinese kung fu fan. He has won kung fu championships a lot of times and also served as a coach for the Kazakhstan kung fu team. "Chinese kung fu is a treasure of Chinese culture. It is not just a sport but also reflects the Chinese way of dealing with people, their understanding of life, nature, and the world," he said.Vincent Cazeneuve, known as Wensen Qi in Chinese, is a French artist devoted to lacquer (漆器) creation. He came to live in Chongqing in 2009. His works have been shown in art institutions both in and outside of China, and his fans have even collected some of them.What is the charm of Chinese culture that attracts these people?

Walking from the car into the mall doesn't count.Now think about how much time you spent indoors—on the Internet or playing video games or watching TV.You may say, "I play inside more than outside and I like to play games on the computer."If so, it's likely that you spent more time inside four walls than outside in fresh air. Kids today spend two fewer hours per week on sports and outdoor activities than kids did 20 years ago. That's according to a University of Michigan study. Non-moving activities are more popular. The costs "include overweight, greater stress, higher rates of physical and emotional illness and less joy…," says Richard Louv, writer of Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder.Play is important, even for adults. ▲Outdoor activity betters your senses. The next time you sit down to message your friends, take note of your senses during and after your texting. Then do the same experiment after you've done something outside. You will find being outdoors brings the senses to life. "Hiking, exploring, and fishing help hone all of your senses," says Betsy Keller. She's a professor of exercise and sports sciences at Ithaca College in New York. "Smell, sight... all of your senses are in use when you're outside."Outdoor play frees your mind. Are you stressed out? Having trouble devoting your mind to what you're doing?Too much time indoors — away from the natural world — may be a cause. Louv uses a term to describe the set of problems caused by too much time indoors: nature deficit disorder. He says, "I use it to describe the price we pay for being so separated from nature."Spending time outdoors brings you closer to the environment. When you're out, breathe in fresh air, hear the leaves crackle underfoot and search cool birds and plants in the woods. It can help you feel more connected to the natural world. No woods nearby? Nature can be found right outside your back door or in your local park.So the next time you sit down to spend quality time with a video game, consider treating yourself to a little outdoor play instead.23.How does the writer first introduce the topic of outdoor play?A.

By telling the reader outdoor play is good for body and mind.24.Which sentence should go in ▲ in Paragraph 5?A. Outdoor play helps form relationships.B. Just getting outdoors does wonders.C.

Walking from your car into the mall.B. Spending your quality time with TV drama series.C. Playing a video game of making sandcastles by the beach.D. Watching in your local park how fast the clouds are moving.HNature is amazing!Take a close look at the world of insects （昆虫），you'll discover many unbelievable things.Consider butterflies，for example.They have beautiful，colorful wings，and strong，fantastic flying skills.On summer days，you always see them flying freely over flower gardens and wild fields.But，did you know how butterflies become the lying insects？It's one of the amazing wonders of nature.In the beginning，female butterflies lay a small and colorful egg on a leaf or stem （茎） of a plant.It's hard to believe that the egg will become something completely different in a few days.It becomes a walking insect.This insect is called caterpillar.It now has legs，eyes and a large body.A new life has begun.The caterpillar can eat，walk and see.But it is still not a butterfly.Soon，after growing big，the caterpillar makes a cover for itself.It covers itself in the nice protective blanket （保护层） and goes to sleep.This stage is known as the"pupa （蛹）" stage.After a period of time，the blanket breaks and a wet，weak butterfly appears.It now has six legs，a mouth，eyes and wings.Shortly，the wings fill with blood，and the beautiful，colorful butterfly spreads its wings and flies away.After a few weeks，this adult butterfly lays her eggs，and the cycle begins all over again.This is just one example of the wonders of nature.Look around the natural world，and you will learn many truly amazing things.27.What is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1？______A. Butterflies are a kind of insect.B. Butterflies are good at flying.C. Butterflies have colorful wings.D.

Garrison had been treasuring his last piece. All he had left now was a sheet of the beautiful brown paper Pa had brought back from his last sailing trip."You've been quiet," Pa said, "Could I see your picture?"Garrison handed over his sketch. Pa studied it, then looked at his son. "You're ten now, eh?" Garrison nodded, hoping Pa wouldn't say that he was too old to be fooling around with pencils and paper."When I was ten, I wanted to work on my father's ship," Pa said, "When Thomas was ten, he asked me to let him plant the corn."Garrison's throat （嗓子）tightened. "I know I'm not like either of you." Pa looked at the drawing again."No, you are like both of us. You work hard, like Thomas. And you're like me, too. I have wandering feet, but you have a wandering mind. We need to see things differently.Garrison frowned. "I'd rather love the land, like Thomas, or the sea…"Pa patted his hand. "Thomas cares about our family very much-that's why he's worked so hard to bring us food. And my love for the sea makes good money. But there's more in life than food and money. There's happiness, for one. Does it make you happy to draw?"Garrison nodded."And it makes me happy to look at your drawings. Not many folks can catch happiness on a piece of paper. Some might say drawing's a waste of time, but they don't understand how things are. Why, asking you to stop drawing like asking Thomas to stop farming, or me to stop going to sea. It would be like asking us to stop breathing, wouldn't it?"Garrison considered this, then replied, "No, sir. Not quite like breathing. If I couldn't draw any more, it would be… like someone took away my voice." He hung his head. In his mind he could hear Thomas laughing, "It's not like you ever speak up, anyway."But Pa patted his shoulder and said, "That would be a pure shame. Your voice is important, Garrison, whether it's out loud or on paper. And speaking of paper…" Pa smiled. "Take a look in my bag."Garrison reached into the bag and found a sketchbook. For a moment he was speechless happiness seemed to fill his body and stick in his throat. Then he managed to find his voice. "Oh, Pa-thank you."（1）Why did Garrison's throat tighten?A. Because he felt thirsty.B. Because he felt very scared.C. Because he knew he was not like Pa or Thomas.D. Because he thought Pa would stop him drawing.（2）When Garrison frowned, he most probably felt ________.A. unhappyB. worriedC. afraidD. ashamed（3）What can we infer from the passage about Garrison?A. He lived in a big wealthy family.B. He was his father's favourite son.C. He would go on with his drawing.D. He would learn to work on the farm.【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）C【解析】【分析】主要讲了Garrison的爸爸送给Garrison一本素描书，让他继续绘画。

One was a very rich banker，another owned one of the largest companies in the world，and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.The reporter was talking to them about being important."How do we know if someone is really important?" the reporter asked the banker.The banker thought for a few moments and then said，"I think anybody who is invited to the Whiter House to meet the President of the United States is really important."The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. "Do you agree with that?" she asked.The man shook his head，"No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You'd only be important if while you were visiting the President，there was a telephone call from the president of another country，and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it."The reporter turned to the third man. "Do you think so?""No，I don't，" he said. "I don't think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.""Then what would make the visitor important?" the reporter and the other two men asked."Oh，I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang，and the President picked up the receiver，listened and then said，'It's for you.'

2025年中考备考专题初中英语阅读理解记叙文真题精选专项训练
专题2025中考备考初中英语阅读理解记叙文真题精选专项训练AThat night，July 11，2022，Nick Bostic was driving down the streets of Lafayette，Indiana，when he found a two-story house was on fire.Flames（火焰） were climbing up the front porch.Without pausing for a moment to think aboutthe danger，Bostic stopped his car and ran from the back door into the burning building，whichbelongs to the Barrett family.Bostic had just started climbing the stairs when he looked up and saw four faces appear from a room at the top of the stairs and look down at him，their eyes wide."Your house is on fire，you need to go!"Bostic yelled.Bostic hurried the four girls into the fresh air."Anybody else in there？"Bostic asked."Kaylani is in there!We can't find her!"Seionna，the eldest of the girls，screamed，referring to her six-year-old sister.Without hesitating，Bostic ran back inside.By now，the whole side of the house was in flames Bostic went upstairs.He searched every bedroom.No kid.The smoke was thick now.He lifted his T-shirt，trying to cover his mouth and nose when he heard the sound of crying，from the dark smoke below.Bostic felt about in the blackness and beat，moving downstairs toward the sound.Then suddenly Kaylani was in front of him，Bostic quickly lifted the girl into his arms.Where is the front door？Bostic remembered seeing a window on the side of the house where the fire hadn't reached.Bostic climbed back up，made it to the room and broke the glass，Kaylani still in his arms.Bostic and Kaylani looked down at the open grassy space.The girl said，" ______" He was thinking the exact same thing.But they had little choice.The flames were inching ever closer.Holding Kaylani tightly in one arm，Bostic ran forward and threw himself out of the window.He managed to land on the other shoulder.Kaylani was almost unhurt.Days passed.Bostic woke up from first-degree burns to his leg and arm.He felt like he'd just done what anyonewould have done in that situation.But outside the hospital，the story of Nick Bostic was already spreading.He wasa hero-the pizza man who had run into a burning building not once，but twice.1.What does the underlined word " hesitating" mean in Paragraph 5？______A. 交谈B. 犹豫C. 埋怨D. 期待2.Which of the following is the correct order of the story？______a.Bostic looked for the door with Kaylani in his arms.b.Bostic led the four girls out into the fresh air.c.Bostic went upstairs to search every bedroom for Kaylani.d.Bostic jumped out of the window holding Kaylani tightly in one arm.e.Bostic followed the sound of crying to the dark smoke below.A. cbadeB. bceadC. ceabdD. baedc3.Which sentence should go in the empty box in Paragraph 3 from the bottom？______A.

She's so happy, and the dog is happy, too! "I want to call him Eco," says Holly. "Come here, Eco!" And Eco wags (摇摆) his tail."That dog is your responsibility (责任), Holly," says her father. "No problem!" Holly agrees.Before school, Holly takes Eco for his first morning walk. She feels very tired. It's really cold and dark—and it's so early! But Eco doesn't mind. He runs, stops, runs again, sees a black cat, tries to run after it and nearly pulls Holly off her feet!Holly realizes it's late when she gets back from the walk. She quickly eats a piece of bread, takes her bag andjacket, and runs to school.What a busy morning! But that's not all for looking after a pet dog.When Holly takes Eco for his evening walk, it's quite dark outside. Holly feels nervous. She runs along the road with him, but it's difficult. Because Eco often stops to study the bushes and trees. And he often tries to catch birds, or play with sticks and fallen leaves.A few days go by. Then…It's raining outside. Eco enters…and the trouble starts. Eco's dirty paws leave prints everywhere, on the floor, on the blanket, on the sofa…"Come here, Eco!" says Holly. She wants to stop him, but it doesn't work.Holly gets really angry now. She decides to punish Eco. So that night Eco is kept in the green house alone.When Holly enters the green house next morning, it's a disaster. Her mum's plants and flowers are lying on their sides or on the floor. And the pots (花盆) are broken into a hundred pieces. And Eco is sitting in the soil and leaves. "Oh, no," says Holly. She realizes it's time to train the dog. "He needs to know the rules."Every day after school, Holly repeats simple orders to Eco. If he can do as ordered, he can get nice bones. The amazing thing is, Eco really enjoys it. For him, it's one big game.So Eco learns to sit when Holly says, "Sit!"

You must TRY HARDER. Amy told herself silently. She was in her class' Second-Day-of-School Game with her teammates, whom she only met yesterday. This was her first chance to make new friends, and she was nervous.So far Amy hadn't given any useful suggestions—after all, she was totally new to this town. Luckily, no one seemed to care about it. This relaxed her a lot.Since the Blue Team left the park, they had worked out the first two clues (线索) and had been to the post office. Now they were in front of the cinema.Henry was reading aloud the third clue: Go to our town founder's last resting place.I know THIS ONE! Amy thought, excited."To the cemetery (墓地)" Cindy said."No, wait!" Amy said. "I've read about it. The founder was buried near the library.""Wow. I've walked by every day," Tyler said. "Never knew that!""Good job! That will save valuable time," Cindy smiled at Amy."We still need to hurry," Tyler reminded, pointing to the Yellow Team coming near."I know a shortcut!" Henry suggested. "Follow me!" No one moved."No, seriously," Henry said. "You know I'm always running late. I know every shortcut in town." The others finally agreed.A few sharp turns, and they were there! This time Amy read the clue aloud: Now go to the place where the football is running around!"The football stadium!" They called out together and started to run…Now they'd got the final clue: Look where you've been, see where you are. Use your map wisely and you'll be a star!Looking closely at the map, everyone thought hard."Aha! A star!" Cindy suddenly broke the silence. She quickly took out a pencil.As they watched her drawing lines on the map, everyone understood.They began running back to where they started. They were closer and closer, and finally crossed the finish line-just one step behind the Red Team!"So…close…" Tyler made a face, and they all laughed together."Nice job, new girl," Cindy gave Amy a high-five."That was really fun," said Henry.

"Twenty-four points，"Devin said."That's great."Jordan's best was 19 points.He was the league's top scorer.When his parents showed up at the gym，Jordan brought the program over to them.His dad laughed."I had quite a game that day，"he said."But look at the score.I prefer to trade all my points for a win."Jordan hadn't noticed that his dad's team had lost by one point."That was a great group of teammates，" Dad said."I'm still friends with a lot of them."As game time came near，Jordan slapped hands with his teammate Tara and then started to warm up.The courts filled up quickly.Jordan felt strangely calm.He'd played so many games in this gym that it was like his own home.Jordan had led his team to a victory over the Lions last season.Why shouldn't today be like that？Jordan grew even more confident when he hit the first 2 shots（投篮）.The Lions called a break.Jordan ran to the bench and jumped up and down with excitement."Great start，"Coach said."But those guys are tough.They'll come back on us."He was right.By half time，the Lions had pulled ahead，27-24.Jordan looked up at his parents.His dad nodded and called，"Great work!"But Jordan didn't feel quite as confident as he had before.The teams traded baskets throughout the second half，with neither building a lead.Eleven seconds left.The scoreboard was clear：LIONS 51.BADGERS 51.Coach told Jordan to bring the ball up the court."Look for Devin inside，but take the shot if you're open，"he said. Jordan glanced at his dad again.His dad pointed to Jordan，then held up two fingers on one hand and three fingers on the other."Me？"Jordan mouthed.Dad nodded.Jordan had scored 23 points.Another basket would break the record.And it was the right time to do it! Jordan ran right，then left，but he was still a long way from the basket.The viewers started counting the seconds."Four …three …two."Jordan rose to shoot.As the Lions rushed toward him，he passed the ball to Devin—wide open near the basket. Devin turned and shot.The ball fell cleanly through the net for the winning points."Yes!"Jordan shouted.After celebrating with his team，he ran to hug his parents."You still have the record，"he told his dad.Dad smiled."You have something more important.A championship.And great teammates.Congratulations on your history!"30.Which of the following is true according to the article？______A.

中考英语阅读理解模拟题30题
中考英语阅读理解模拟题30题1<背景文章>Environmental protection has become an increasingly important issue in recent years. There are various types of environmental pollution, such as air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution and noise pollution.Air pollution is mainly caused by the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas. Factories emit a large amount of harmful gases, and vehicles also release exhaust fumes. This has a serious impact on human health. People may suffer from respiratory diseases, such as asthma and bronchitis. It also affects the natural environment. For example, acid rain, which is caused by air pollution, can damage forests and lakes.Water pollution is another major problem. Industrial waste, agricultural pesticides and fertilizers, and domestic sewage are often discharged directly into water bodies without proper treatment. This pollutes rivers, lakes and oceans. Polluted water can kill aquatic organisms and make water unfit for human use.Soil pollution is often overlooked. Excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, as well as improper disposal of industrial waste, can contaminate the soil. This can reduce soil fertility and affect the growth of plants.Noise pollution is mainly from traffic, construction sites and industrial areas. High - level noise can cause hearing loss and also have a negative impact on people's mental health.To deal with these environmental problems, we can take a series of measures. For example, we can develop clean energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy and hydro - energy to reduce the use of fossil fuels. Factories should be required to install pollution - control devices to reduce emissions. Everyone should also raise their awareness of environmental protection and start from small things in daily life, such as reducing waste and saving water.1. <问题1>A. Air pollution is mainly caused by _______.A. the use of clean energyB. the burning of fossil fuelsC. the growth of plantsD. the protection of animals答案：B。
中考试题初三英语阅读理解练习题
中考英语阅读理解模拟试题一一、有人为了要扩张耕地和工地面积，试图把湿地变成农田，变成建筑，可是这是决不行旳！由于湿地对我们人类来说是十分重要旳。
There are many wetlands（湿地） in China and some of them have become the world ‘s important wetlands. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng， Jiangsu Province. They are home for many different kinds of birds and animals. The world’s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve（自然保护区） is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely there. There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world， but every winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands.The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine， too. They are really good places for wildlife（野生生物）。
Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent flood. But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife.Luckily， more and more people are beginning to realize the important of wetlands and wildlife. Every year， on February 2nd， many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands.根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给旳四个选项中选择最佳选项。

And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.根据短文内容判断正、误。
