九年级英语阅读理解专项训练15篇第1篇Sadness and happiness are often talked about by people in their spare time. Most people want themselves to be happy for ever, but few know how to find happiness. Others say if you own lots of money and success, you will be happy. However, money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. A famous a Greek thinker, Aristotle, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” That’s to say, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future. For example, getting into college or getting a good job, which we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others.Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping or help out with some things around the house for an elderly person.If you do above, you will be happy.1.

What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic control. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality.Three-dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic.They build the object layer by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop, the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive.So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.(1)What is the passage mainly about?A. Environmental protection.B. The world of tomorrow.C. Advantages of technology.(2)What do we learn from the passage?A. Some people think technology development may bring new problemsB. 3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap.C. The flying cars won't bring air traffic jam even when they become popular.(3)What is the correct structure of the passage? (P1=Paragraph1)A. B. C.(4)What does the underlined word "they" refer to?A. Car companies.B. 3D print.C. Body parts.(5)We can infer that the writer ________ about the future life with technology.A. doesn't careB. feels hopefulC. feels disappointed2.阅读材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Most people want themselves to be happy for ever, but few know how to find happiness. Others say if you own lots of money and success, you will be happy. However, money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. A famous a Greek thinker, Aristotle, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” That’s to say, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future. For example, getting into college or getting a good job, which we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others.Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping or help out with some things around the house for an elderly person.If you do above, you will be happy.1. How many suggestions of happiness are mentioned in this passage?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.2. If you want to enjoy the simple things in life, you can ________.A. listen to your favorite musicB. remember some problemsC. think about getting into collegeD. read a bad book3. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Money and success alone do not bring you lasting happiness.B. If you want to feel happier, you can go shopping for an elderly person.C. Spending so much time thinking about the future can enjoy the present.D. Active person may live a happier life than inactive person.4. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A. Reading a good bookB. Travelling to a foreign countryC. Playing a sport.D. Spending lime with close friends5. What’s the main idea of this passage?A. How to live a happy life.B. How to depend on ourselves.C. How to help the old people.D. How to get a good job.答案:CACBAHundreds of years ago,a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots,a brave people,loved their country very much. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland,but there were too many Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.One night,the leader of Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight,my men,”he said. “Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win or we will die.”They were all very tired,so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty,but they,too,were very tired,and one by one,also fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside,taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more,the war would be over. Suddenly,one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment,they were on their feet and ready for battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved their country.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people like it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

Then one Friday morning I took part in a three-day self-help program for teenagers. Whether you believe it or not, that weekend changed my life.About 100 other teenagers were there. During the first two days I met a lot of great people. I was glad because I made so many friends there.On Sunday, the leader did an interesting exercise called “Chocolate or Toys”. He asked a girl which she liked better, chocolate or toys. She chose chocolate. Then he asked her to choose again between chocolate and chocolate. Of course, she didn’t have a choice.This exercise told us that sometimes we don’t have a choice in life, and that sometimes we have to accept something, rather than complaining(抱怨).A girl stood up and started talking about her mom who was a drug addict(吸毒者) and how much she hated her mother.“I want a new mom,” she cried.“Unluckily, you can’t have one,” the leader replied. “You have to accept the mother that you have.”This hit me hard. I realized that, for better or worse, my mom was my mom. I couldn’t choose another mom, but I could try to make the best of the situation.5.The writer used to hate his mother because ________.A.she had no time to be with himB.she didn’t care for himC.she was too strict with himD.she was a drug addict6.The self-help program for teenagers lasted ________.A.only one day B.two days C.three days D.a week7.What can we learn from the passage?A.The writer’s mom is a very bad person.B.The writer used to love his mom for years.C.The writer’s mom loves her son very much.D.The writer will try to get along with his mother.8.What is the main idea of this passage?A.Choices can be made as we like.B.Everyone should take part in a self-help program.C.Chocolate can influence one’s attitude(态度) towards things.D.We should try to accept things instead of complaining about them.二、阅读判断A long time ago, somebody gave Paris the name “City of Light”, and for years, artists have tried to put the light and colors of Paris into pictures.The River Seine which winds through the center of Paris is a favorite scene because it’s a peaceful place in the heart of the busy city. Old men spend hours fishing from the banks of the river. They don’t catch many fish, but they don’t mind. They enjoy just being by the river. Many people spend hours walking along the river or relaxing under the old trees. It’s so pleasant to buy some cheese, some wine and a long loaf(条) of French bread and then have a picnic here on a sunny day. Sometimes you see an unusual sight, like a man padding a kayak(小艇) down the river. A bridge crosses the river to the Latin Quarter, which is the home of many artists and writers.根据短文内容,正确(T),错误(F)。

If someone says to you: "give me five", do not search your pocket to get five yuan! It will make others laugh! The person's not asking for your money, but your fingers.In the US, "give me five" or "give me the high five" is a popular gesture (动作). You can see it often in films or on TV. It means the clapping (拍) of each other's raised right hands together. People do it when they meet for the first time or something happy happens. For example, a student has good marks in exams or wins a lottery ticket (彩票).If a football team wins a game, the players will give high fives to everyone around to celebrate.This gesture may come from the old Roman gesture of raising the right arm for the emperor to show respect. This also showed that the person raising his arm did not have a sword (刀) in his hand.Why not try to give the high five to your friends?(1)"Give me five" is a gesture to ask for money.(2)The gesture "give me five" is the clapping of hands .(3)When you get good grades in your exam, you give your friends high fives.(4)The gesture started in America according to the story.(5)The Romans raised the right arm without a sword in his hand for the emperor to show their respect to the emperor.2.阅读下列短文,从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项Recently I had a trip to Sydney with my parents.

They learned the arts of Chinese handwriting, dumpling making, paper cutting, and discovered the culture of Chinese family trees.The festival started 12 years ago after a 10-year-old girl called Sun Ruihan was refused when paying a New Year's visit to her neighbor. Upset by this incident, she wrote to the Shibei district government of Qingdao, suggesting that they should introduce a "Neighbor Day" to encouragegreater spirit.As the birthplace of the festival, Shibei hosted the opening ceremony of this year's Neighbor Day on April 19. With the theme of" ▲ ", people from across the city got together to share their homemade food and discuss the family stories. They also set up a mobile neighbors' library to share books.Sarah from the United States said she had a great time with her neighbors as she experienced the art of Chinese paper cutting for the first time. Masha from Russia, who is studying Chinese at the Ocean University of China, described the event as a great chance to make friends with her Chinese neighbors and learn about the local culture with them. She tried her best at Chinese handwriting and also had great fun learning how to make dumplings. "I love eating dumplings but I never knew how to make them before, "she said." Now I can come to my neighbors' homes and learn in their kitchens."Neighbor Day grew from the needs of the people. With the big support from the government, it has become another culture symbol of Qingdao.(1)Neighbor Day in Qingdao is a festival to .A. welcome foreigners to QingdaoB. learn different western culturesC. make friends with neighborsD. help neighbors out of trouble(2)The underlined word "incident" in Paragraph 2 probably means in Chinese.A. 事件B. 行动C. 过程D. 意外(3)Which of the following can be best put into the blank" ▲ "?A.

I was terrified but I just acted cool.—Buding, still afraid of spidersI was scared of the dark because I didn't know if there was something scary inside the room. As a result, I always liked sleeping with my back facing the wall because it made me a little comfortable.—Gerard, not so afraid of the dark anymore, but still sleeps with his back facing the wallStrange as it probably sounds, I was scared of shadows(影子).Not the shadows themselves, but what they formed(形成).Because I was near-sighted(近视的), the shadows I saw formed into the scariest things I saw in my mind.—Jean, no longer afraid of shadows I was afraid of the old woman who lived alone right in front of us. Very large trees covered the front part of her small house. The few times I saw the old woman, it scared me because she looked like a witch(女巫).Once I was playing volleyball with my friends and the ball flew into her house. We all ran home quickly and decided that it was okay to lose the ball instead of seeing her come out of the house.—Mac, who has already moved to a different house (1)Buding used to be afraid of .A. the darkB. spidersC. shadowsD. an old woman(2)Gerard sleeps.A. with the light onB. with his parentsC. with the window openD. with his back facing the wall(3)There is something wrong with Jean's .A. legsB. backC. yesD. feet(4)The old woman lived in a small house .A. by herselfB. with her daughterC. with her husbandD. with her grandmother4.阅读理解Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others Believe that success mostly Comes down to luck. I'm not going to say luck, talent, and Circumstances(境遇)don't Come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are Born with great intelligence, and that's just the reality of how life is.However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then make it more practical. And, vesides that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10, 000 hours studying and practising. To vecome great at certain things, it'll require even more time, which most people won't put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don't enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you give up before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there. It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were Born with some unusual talent, But thinking that way does you no good, andthere's a huge Chance that you're wrong anyway.No matter what you do, if you want to Become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction(入迷), and over a long period of time. If you're not willing to put in the time and work, don't expect to receive any rewards. Hard work won't guarantee(保证)you the level of success you may want, But it will guarantee that you will Become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.(1)Paragraph 1 mainly talks about __________.A. the reasons for successB. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success(2)The underlined word" that" refers to __________.A. putting in more timeB. succeeding in lifeC. Being good at somethingD. setting a practical goal(3)Successful people suggest doing what one loves Because __________.A. work makes him feel painB. he is likely to enjoy his workC. he gives up his work easilyD. it takes a lot of time to succeed(4)What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain that luck or talent leads to success.B. To tell us that one cannot succeed without time and practice.C. To show us that having a goal is the main reason to success.D. To describe that successful people like to show their great skills.5.阅读理解We often hear stories of animals rescuing people. But now someone has managed to return the favor.The event took place on a snowy January morning. Thomas Smith was walking his dog, Jack, in the park. "As I was walking, I just saw Jack running into the ice towards the ducks in the middle, and then he fell into the water and couldn't climb out," said Smith. He realized he had no choice but to try and save his dog. "Someone else told me the lake was only one meter deep, but it was at least twice that. I had to break my way through the 6-cm ice. Finally, I got Jack by the neck and pulled him out. I didn't think I had ever felt so cold by the time we got back to dry land. And when we got there, everyone was asking if Jack was okay—no one was particularly worried about me!"A neighbor, Julie Brown, saw it all happen. "The dog went onto an icy lake. All of a sudden, it started to go under. There were crowds of people around, and they were all shouting and screaming. Before I knew it, the owner (Smith) was in the water forcing his way through the ice, I couldn't imagine how cold it was. Everyone was very nervous, but he was as cool as acucumber-he just crawled back out, put the dog on its lead, and went home.Many regard him as a hero, but Mr. Smith is quite laid—back about it, "Most dog owners are the same as me. They would do what I did without a second thought. But in the future, I'm going to make sure he's on a lead near any icy pond.Pets are members of our family. Would you do the same for them?(1)What happened on a cold January morning?A. Mr. Smith met Jack in the park.B. Mr. Smith ran after Jack on the ice,C. Jack fell from the ice into the water.D.

Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.One day, my mother was sewing a quilt(缝被子).I silently sat beside her."Mom, is there love between you and Dad? "I asked in a very low voice.With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said, "Susan, look at this thread(线).It can hardly be seen, but it's really there. It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love is inside."I couldn't understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.After they were back, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road every day. They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.After two months my father still couldn't walk by himself."Dad, how are you feeling now? "I asked him one day."Susan, don't worry about me, "he said. "I just like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life." Reading his eyes, I knew he loves my mother deeply.Now I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.(1)Susan's father stayed in hospital for _________.A. one dayB. one monthC. two monthsD. three months(2)Susan came to understand her mother _________.A. while her mother was sewing a quiltB. before her father was in hospitalC. when she was sitting beside her motherD. after her father was seriously sick(3)What can we know from the passage?A.

They stood in a circle, with 30 more stones lying on top to form a ring of rocks. There was also an inner circle built with similar stones. The stones set up in a trilithon(巨石牌坊) pattern.A trilithon is made of two stone pillars with a stab of rock laid across the top. The stones weigh up to 20 tons each. People wonder how the huge rocks were placed that way.Historians agree that Stonehenge was built in three different stages. The first stage took place about 5, 000 years ago. At that time, a large circular earth wall was made. Historians believe the wall was dug and cut with tools made form anglers(鹿角)of red deer. The earth wall was about 98m in diameter(直径) a 5-meter-tall stone was placed near the center. Then, they had to transport the large blue stones (up to 4 tons) 384 kilometers to Stonehenge. Experts think they might be moved across ice and snow. The ground in winter in this area is usually full of ice and snow, making it easier to move the rocks. The next task was to stand the stones up. The most difficult task was putting the top stones in place. Each one of these tasks took a lot of planning and a lot of strength, but the workers of Stonehenge were excellent builders.Why was the monument built? Some scientists think it's a burial ground. There are over 400 graves (burial sits) nearby. A man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC). Others think Stonehenge was built by early astronomers. Scientists believe that when a person stands in the center of the monument, the changing of seasons can be seen. Certain stones mark the location of the rising and setting moon in midwinter. Other stones mark the rising and setting sun in midsummer. The ancient people held religious ceremonies on these days. These ceremonies probably asked the gods to bring good weather for crops and to protect the people from bad weather.Stonehenge is an engineering success. Thousands of years later, it still stands. As a calendar,Stonehenge is very accurate. It shows that early people had a deep understanding of the movements to the sun and the moon. They didn't have machines or computers, but Stonehenge shows people could do many things using only their muscles and their brains.(1)he first building stage of Stonehenge was ________.A. to dig and cut the earth wallB. to move the blue stones across the iceC. to stand the stones upD. to put the top stones in place(2)Which evidence(证据) is given to support the idea that Stonehenge was a burial ground?A. Stonehenge was made of stones.B. It is a place for celebrating ceremonies.C. The passing of seasons can be seen there.D. Two gold earrings were found in a grave.(3)The underlined word "accurate" in the last paragraph probably means "________".A. correctB. strangeC. hugeD. heavy(4)Stonehenge was probably NOT originally built for ________.A. touristsB. religious reasonsC. a burial groundD. telling the seasons8.阅读理解Our monthly talks start at 19: 30 on the first Thursday of each month except August.

If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values.

九年级上册英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)含解析一、阅读理解1.阅读理解Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of yourown. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worthhaving a try!(1)According to the passage who have a communication problem?A. parents and other peopleB. only school kids and their parentsC. teachers and their studentsD. parents and children of all ages(2)How many pieces of advice does the writer give us to bridge the generation gap?A. 5.B. 4.C. 3.D. 2.(3)The underlined word "bridge" in the passage means "___________".A. 建立B. 消除C. 通过D. 到达(4)If the values of your parents are different from those of yours, you'd better ___________.A. argue with themB. keep away from themC. agree with them all the timeD. tell your parents what you care about(5)The best title for the passage is ___________.A. How to bridge the generation gapB. How to deal with family problemsC. How to be good parentsD. How to be a good child【答案】(1)D(2)C(3)B(4)D(5)A【解析】【分析】文章大意:短文讲了家长和孩子之间有代沟,主要原因就是缺少沟通,当我们彼此了解了对方的观点和想法以后,就能很容易的理解对方,从而消除代沟。
