一、中考英语阅读理解汇编

1．阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

In many countries around the world, May 1st is a holiday which is called Labor Day or Workers' Day. It is an interesting holiday that honors working people and their jobs. But do you know how it started?

During the late 1880s, in many parts of the world, people worked for fourteen to sixteen hours a day in factories, but made very little money. Later, in the United States and Canada, working people got together to set up unions （工会）. The union leaders asked factory bosses for shorter working time and higher salaries （工资）, but many of the bosses ▲ .

On May 1st, 1886, men and women in the United States and Canada stopped working and went onto the streets. They walked through cities and towns to force bosses to let them work eight hours a day. In the city of Chicago, several people died in fighting with the police. Over the next few years, people in cities around the world stopped working on May 1st to honor workers everywhere. By the early twentieth century, the first of May became a national holiday in many countries.

However, in the United States and Canada, May 1st is not a holiday. North Americans celebrate Labor Day on the first Monday in September. Today in the United States, Labor Day is mostly about having fun. People enjoy a long weekend and often celebrate it by having picnics with friends or family.

（3）词义猜测题。根据 On May 1st, 1886, men and women in the United States and Canada stopped working and went onto the streets. They walked through cities and towns to force bosses to let them work eight hours a day.可知，美国和加拿大工人罢工游街逼迫老板让他们每天工作8小时，可推出force意思为迫使，故选B。

（4）细节题。根据 working people got together to set up unions （工会）. On May 1st, 1886, men and women in the United States and Canada stopped working and went onto the streets.

2．阅读短文，判断下列句子正误。

Zak's grandfather, Stan was very famous. Why? Because he had a very, very, very long white beard （胡子）.

One day, Zak asked his grandfather, "When you sleep, do you put your beard over or under the quilt （被子）?" "I'm not sure. I never care about that," said his grandfather, "I'll look tonight." Stan got into bed that night and pulled up the quilt. Then he remembered his grandson's question. Aha! His beard was under the quilt. But wait. Did that feel right?

He lift his beard from under the quilt and put it above it. This also didn't feel right. Si he put the beard under the quilt again. But he soon felt it would be better if it were out. The beard went in and out—first under the quilt, then over it, under, over, all night long.

Stan spent a sleepless night. In the morning, he was so tired and unhappy that he cut his long beard right off!

Stan's wife was so happy. She advised Stan to cut that beard off many times, but he never did it. Now a simple question made him do that.

（1）Stan was very famous for his long white beard.
