阅读理解(人生百味)单元测试题(含答案)(word)1一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment (公寓房间), I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining street-light. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the street.Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired any more, and I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the street anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the street next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes."Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.(1)How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick.B. Fortunate and helpful.C. Disappointed and helpless.D. Satisfied and cheerful.(2)From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy _________.A. solving her problem at the bankB. preparing for the first night showC. learning acting in an evening schoolD. taking part in various city activities(3)On her way home the writer __________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her (4)In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.D. She heard someone call her name.(5)From the text, we can infer that the writer _________.A. would stop working at nightB. would give up her job at the bankC. would stay on in San FranciscoD. would make friends with cleaners【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)A(4)D(5)C【解析】【分析】文章大意:本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者在忙碌的工作之后感觉十分的失望无奈,只是在她回家的路上她的钱包在不知不觉中丢了,她在回去找钱包的路上遇到了归还钱包的清洁工,这份善良唤回了她对城市的信心。

An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症).When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming(克服)difficulties and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Clearly, he knew what he was talking about. He didn't mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming difficulties than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You won that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthew's parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don't have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I'm a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.Your friend,Matthew(1)The underlined part in Paragraph 3 “Why me?” probably means .A. Why do you come to see me?B. Why do I have to stay at home?C. Why does the disease fall on me?D. Why give a gold medal to me?(2)Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Matthew knew clearly about his illness.B. Matthew once got his own gold medal.C. Matthew thanked Rick for his kindness.D. Matthew lived happily and brightly all his life.(3)Rick wrote the passage with the purpose of .A. expressing his pity to all the disabled childrenB. telling an experience of meeting a disabled childC. describing his unusual friendship with a disabled childD. showing his admiration towards the disabled child【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)D【解析】【分析】作者作为奥运冠军被邀请去见一个患肌肉萎缩症的孩子,这个孩子很积极乐观,认为自己能够获得奥运冠军。

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

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

Old Dan smiled, and took it. “Thank you, little miss,” he said, “It is kindly meant.”After that, Maggie went to the beach to gather shells.

She felt sad and cried.Luckily, Dan's large dog Rover jumped down from a rock! Rover raised his loud bark. The fisherman had taken his nets to the top of the cliffs (悬崖), and was laying them out in the sun when he heard the loud barking of a dog. He felt sure that it was Rover, and Rover was in trouble, so he looked over. There he saw it all.“Bless her! It is the little one that was so kind-spoken to me this morning!” he cried, and he hurried to his sons' rooms.“Quick, boys, quick!” he said. “Get to the boat, and row fast to the sea. There is a poor child there just waiting to be helped.” The fishermen lost no time, and soon little Maggie and Rover were rowed safely to land! Old Dan was waiting there to lift her out to give her into her mother's arms.“It was the penny that did it, madam,” he said to Mrs. Weston later. “I saw Rover looking at her when she put the penny.

DIn today's world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影响) on the poor, but once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn't mean more happiness.If money was everything, all millionaires would have true love, true friendship, good health and a long life. However, this is not always true.Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are "I love you". But can love be bought? I'm afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and long life are probably the most precious(宝贵的) things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is "No".Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship can't be bought either. In a word, where money is worshiped(崇拜), money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on. No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have no one to laugh with, no one to cry for. (1)According to the passage, which of the following do you think is right?A. Money is everything.B. Money isn't necessary.C. Money is important, but not the most important.D. With no money, with no success.(2)What's the most important thing for every person according to the writer?A. Only money.B. Health and a long life.C. Only friendship.D. A, B and C (3)Which sentence of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. If you haven't much money, you can't get more happiness.B. You may live a long life even if you are poor.C. Every year many people die in the world because their family is poor.D. If you are rich, you will have less friendship.(4)In fact, many millionaires _________.A. have true friendshipB. die earlierC. have good healthD. have true love (5)What does the sentence "Love means to give, not to take." mean?A. 爱意味着给你,而不能带走。

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!” the boy answered excitedly.

最新阅读理解(人生百味)单元测试题含答案(word)一、九年级中考英语阅读理解(人生百味)(含答案详细解析)1.阅读理解As a kid, I read a story of a bird. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a house and the female bird takes care of the baby in it. When the baby bird learns to fly, the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me confused(困惑的):How could they so easily give up their house built with so much effort?One night, I got this dream. I was walking on the endless road with beautiful trees on the either side. Attracted by the greenery, I went on, then I saw a wonderful house. I explored the house. There was a sloping(斜的) roof which matched with the greenery around; the large central open yard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house — of course, it was all dried up now. Such liveliness turns the house into a home. People say “THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS”, and now I felt it and was attracted deeply.When I woke up from the dream, I was clear about everything. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey(传递) me. And years later, when I chose my career, I thought of the story of the bird and my dream,then I was sure what to do. I decided to choose architecture as my career. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did, to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it. My dream comes true and the happiness that I gain now from this career is great.(1)When the writer read the story of the bird,he felt _______.A. boredB. confusedC. amazedD. worried(2)In the writer's dream, what part of the house attracted him most?A. The sloping roof of the house.B. The body of water that keeps the house cool.C. The large central open yard.D. The liveliness that he felt around the house.(3)The underlined word “architecture” in Paragraph 3 means _______ in Chinese.A. 考古B. 天文C. 建筑D. 艺术(4)The passage is mainly about _______.A. how the bird could give up their house easilyB. how the writer finally becomes an honest citizenC. what we need to do when we choose our careerD. why the writer chooses architecture as his career【答案】(1)B(2)D(3)C(4)D【解析】【分析】本文主要内容是作者小时候听到一个关于一种小鸟的故事,这种鸟的公鸟负责搭窝,母鸟负责抚养后代,小鸟长大后,他们飞走了,把鸟窝留给其他鸟。

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

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