人教版初中英语中考英语复习： 难度较大的阅读文章含答案(一)
Trying to Find a PartherOne of the most striking findings of a recent poll in the UK is that of the people inbterviewed,one in two believes that it is becoming more difficult to meet someone to start a family with.Why are many finding it increasingly difficult to start and sustain intimate relationships?Does modern life really make it harder to fall in love?Or are we making it harder for ourselves?It is certainly the case today that contemporary couples benefit in different ways from relationships.Women no longer rely upon partners for economic security or status.A man doesn't expect his spouse to be in sole charge of running his household and raising his children.But perhaps the knowledge that we can live perfectly well without a partnership means that it takes much more to persuade people to abandon their independence.In theory,finding a partner should be much simpler these days.Only a few generations ago,your choice of soulmate （心上人）was constrained by geography,social convention and family tradition.Although it was never explicit,many marriages were essentially arranged.Now those barriers have been broken down.You can approach a builder or a brain surgeon in any bar in any city on any given evening.When the world is your oyster （牡蛎）,you surely have a better chance of finding a pearl.But it seems that the old conventions have been replaced by an even tighter constraint:the tyranny of choice.The expectations of partners are inflated to an unmanageable degree:good looks,impressive salary,kind to grandmother,and right socks.There is no room for error in the first impression.We think that a relationship can be perfect.If it isn't,it is disposable.We work to protect ourselves against future heartache and don't put in the hard emotional labor needed to build a strong relationship.Of course,this is complicated by realities.The cost of housing and child-rearing creates pressure to have a stable income and career before a life partnership.31.What does the recent poll show?A.It is getting more difficult for a woman to find her husband.B.It is getting increasingly difficult to start a familyl.C.It is getting more difficult for a man to find his wife.D.It is getting increasingly difficult to develop an intimate relationship with your spouse.32.Which of the following is NOT true about a contemporary married couple?A.The wife doesn't have to raise the children all by herself.B.The husband doesn't have to support the family all by himself.C.The wife is no longer the only person to manage the household.D.They will receive a large sum of money from the govemment.33.Which of the following was NOT a constraint on one's choice of soulmate in the old days?A.The health condition of his or her grandmother.B.The geographical environment.C.The social convention.D.The family tradition.34.Which of the following is NOT expected of a partner according to this passage?A.Good looks.B.An impressive career.C.A high salary.D.A fine sense of humor.35.The word"sustain"（paragraph 2）could be best replaced byA."reduce".B."shake".C."maintain".D."weaken".第二篇Milosevic's DeathFormer Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic was found dead last Saturday in his cell at the Hague-based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.The 64-year-old had been on trial there since February 2002.Born in provincial Pozarevac in 1941,he was the second son of a priest and a school teacher.Both of his parents died when he was still a young adult.The young Milosevic was"untypical",says Slavoljub Djukic,his unofficial biographer.He was"not interested in sports,avoided excursions（短途旅行）and used to come to school dressed in the old-fashioned way-white shirt and tie."One of his old friends said,he could"imagine him as a station-master or punctilious（一丝不苟的）civil servant."Indeed that is exactly what he might have become,had he not married Mira.She was widely believed to be his driving force.At university and beyond he did well.He worked for various firms and was a communist party member.By 1986 he was head of Serbia's Central Committee.But still he had not yet really been noticed.It was Kosovo that gave him his chance.An autonomous province of Serbia,Kosovo washome to an Albanian majority and a Serbian minority.In 1989,he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against.But instead he played the nationalist card and became their champion.In so doing,he changed into a ruthless （无情的）and determined man.At home with Mira he plotted the downfall of his political enemies.Conspiring（密谋）with the director of Serbian TV,he mounted a modern media campaign which aimed to get him the most power in the country.He was elected Serbian president in 1990.In 1997,he became president of Yugoslavia.The rest of the story is well-known:his nationalist card caused Yugoslavia's other ethnic groups to fight for their own rights,power and lands.Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.War started and lasted for years and millions died.Then Western countries intervened.NATO bombed Y ugoslavia,and he eventually stepped down as state leader in 2000.Soon after this,Serbia's new government,led by Zoran Djindjic,arrested him and sent him to face justice at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in the Hague.36.Where did Milosevic die?A.In a basement.B.In a prison.C.In Kosovo.D.In his own country.37.Which of the following is NOT true of the young Milosevic?A.He dressed in a pretty old-fashioned way.B.He was not interested in sports.C.He often avoided excursions.D.He was extremely ambitious.38.All of the following persons changed his fate in one way or another exceptA.Mira.B.his parents.C.Zoran Djindjic.D.the Director of Serbian TV.39.Why was Milosevic sent to Kosovo in 1989?A.To handle economic issues.B.To drive the Albanians back to their own country.C.To remove the Serbians' fears of being discriminated against.D.To launch an attack against his political enemies.40.What happened in 1991?A.Yugoslavia broke up.B.Western countries intervened.C.NATO bombed Yugoslavia.osevic was arrested.第三篇The World CupThis summer's World Cup competition will see teams competing to play the world's best football.But the football they play will not all be of the same kind.The fans expect different styles of play from Brazil,Germany,or Italy.What makes Brazilian football Brazilian?Our style of playing football contrasts with the Europeans because of a combination of qualities of surprise,accuracy and good judgment.This style has won Brazil five world cups.Yet many Brazilian fans only count four of these victories.In 1994,the team abandoned this style for modern,scientific training and tactics.The team won the cup,but in a boring way.The ltalians think differently."To many ltalians,the score 0-0 has a glorious quality,suggesting perfection,"says the British football writer Simon Kuper.In the ltalian culture,the idea of face is very important.This is why ltalian teams are traditionally built around strong defences.The Dutch footballer Johan Cruyff once said that ltalian teams never exactly beat you.It's just that you often lose to them.In Holland,there is a tradition of decision making through argument and discussion.It is a society where everybody is expected to have a point of view."Every Dutch player wants to control the game,"says Arnold Muhren."You play football with your brains and not your feet.""A Dutch player argues,"says Simon Kuper."An English player obeys his superior.He is a soldier."The qualities valued in English football are military-strength,aggression and courage.This can make for exciting football.But it also means that the English find it difficult to use skillful players.David Beckham is usually criticized for his failure to defend-despite the fact that he is an attacker.If the English like to fight,the Germans like to win.In recent years,Germany has tried to change its image as a country of ruthless efficiency and a desire for victory at all costs.But Germans are quite happy for these qualities to remain in their national football team."Football is a simple game,"Gary Lineker once said."You kick a ball about for ninety minutes and in the end the Germans win."It's difficult to predict who will win this year's World Cup.There is no strong favorite.But a look at the track record of previous winners shows that it is the nations with the strongest national characteristics in the football that perform best.It seems that you need to know where you come from if you want to get to the top.41.Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of the Brazilian style of playing football?A.Accuracy.B.Surprise.C.Good judgment.D.Ruthless efficiency.42.Why do many lialians think that the score 0-0 has a glorious quality?A.Because it makes no one lose face.B.Because the ltalian team is not very strong.C.Because ltalians are nice people.D.Because that score is what their team could obtain.43.What is one expected to do in Holland?A.To play football.B.To express his or her opinion freely.C.To make a fuss about nothing.D.To beat his or her opponents ruthlessly.44.Which of the following is NOT true of the British football players?A.They are aggressive.B.They are courageous.C.They play football for friendship.D.They obey their superiors.45.Who will win this year's World Cup?A.The Brazilian team.B.The ltalian team.C.The German Team.D.It is unpredictable.31.B32.D33.A34.D35.C36.B37.D38.B39.C40.A41.D42.A43.B44.C45.D提高初三英语复习成绩的技巧与方法在三年的英语学习中，学生成绩已经出现等级分化；成绩好的学生帮助他们减轻压力，成绩中等的学生布置具体的学习任务，并给予具体的学习策略指导，成绩差的学生会破罐破摔，要帮助他们制定出各自英语学习的短期进步目标，激发其学习的原动力，激发出他们英语学习的兴奋点。

It was shocking to me that he was described as an angry, uncontrollable and evil（道德败坏的）boy. How could such a little boy, after being in school only one year, be considered "evil"?Over the next several months, I came to know Chip well enough to see that he was neither evil nor uncontrollable.But, one day, Chip threw a chair at his teacher and was sent to my office. I asked him what made him do this. He replied that his teacher hated him. He felt there was no way to ever get her to like him. I asked him if he would tell his teacher this. He nodded, and we called her into my office.When the teacher came, . He then said that he knew he was a very, very bad boy, and he didn't think anyone could ever like him. His teacher listened to him with heartfelt compassion. Then she gave him a big warm hug, telling him she didn't hate him at all and, actually, she cared very much about him. Only sometimes Chip's behaviour really scared her. It was clear to both Chip and me that she really meant it.I put my left arm on his shoulders and the right hand on his heart. I told him how wonderful and lovely I saw him to be. I praised how special and brave he was to express his hurt feelings.As I was speaking to him, his whole body came to rest on my right hand next to his heart. It was a moment in time unlike anything I had experienced before. From then on, I'm pleased to see his behaviour improved through the rest of school years.A child's mind is clear and sensitive（敏感的）.

2015届中考英语复习阅读理解1（含解析）Penguins are lovely animals. Most people like them. But now as many as 10 of the 17 kinds of penguins are in danger of disappearing. The number of penguins has decreased by ( 减少了) 30% since 1987.Penguins are black and white birds that live in the southern part of the world. They are common in the Antarctic Continent (南极大陆) ,New Zealand, Australia and South America. Many live near cold waters (水域). But some live near warm waters in Galapagos Islands. Penguins cannot fly, but they are fine swimmers. The shape of their body helps them to survive. Penguins eat fish and krill (磷虾). They have short wings that help them to dive up to 900 feet to catch larger fish. They can swim 10-15 kilometers an hour which lets them protect themselves. They also have lots of body oil that helps in keeping them dry in the water.The warming of the earth is the reason for the decrease in the number of penguins. The hotter and hotter air has caused ocean waters to become warmer. Higher water temperature has decreased the fish and krill. Some years later these birds are completely unable to reproduce. And many adult penguins die of hunger.Too much fishing, exploration for oil and oil leaks (泄漏) also make penguins be in danger. Poisonous things in ocean waters are another danger. Penguins also have their enemies, including sharks, seals and sea lions.1．Penguins can do the following except________.A. divingB. flyingC. swimmingD. catching fish2．Which of the following is NOT the reason for the decrease in the number penguins?A. The warming of the earth.B. Too much fishing.C. Natural disasters.D. Poisonous things in ocean waters.3．What does the underlined word "reproduce" mean?A．繁殖B．灭绝C．迁徙D．觅食4．What's the passage mainly about?A. Fish and krill have decreased.B. Ocean waters are polluted.C. Sharks and seals are the enemies of penguins.D. The decrease in the number of penguins.B.Love is a two - way streetA father sat at his desk and looked at his bills when his young son rushed in and announced: "Dad, because today is your birthday and you're 40 years old, I'm going to give you 40 kisses, one for each year!" When the boy started making good on his word (履行诺言) , the father shouted: "Andrew, don’t do it now. I'm too busy! "The boy soon fell silent as tears fell from his big blue eyes. Feeling sorry, the father said: "You can finish later. The boy said nothing but quietly walked away." That evening the father said: "Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!" But the boy didn’t.Unfortunately, a few days later after the father's birthday, the boy had an accident and died. His sad father wrote: "If only(要是...,该多好)i could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words, and how much my heart is hurting." Love is a two-way street. We must warmly accept any loving act, or others willtake it as a "NO" and it can leave a scar(伤痕). If we don't receive love, our life will lose its true meaning.

Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had traveled alone earlier.“ The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old man.Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything.” He said, “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task.” “I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”The g reat 19th century explorer John Muir once said, “Only by going alone insilence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”10．Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.11．Traveling alone is challenging because________________ .A. you have to make things on your ownB. it is hard for you to prove yourself to othersC. you can only depend on yourself whatever happensD. it will finally build your character12．What can we infer about Chris Richardson?A.

People think you are friendly and easy to talk to. Remember that most of us would like to talk to friendly people and we will stay away from an angry-looking face.Talk to others first. If you find it hard to do, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to those people?Turn your attention to somewhere else. Think more about ways to enjoy the party or the game. Don’t worry about your looks or care if people like you. Reward(奖励) yourself. Each time after you say “hi” or smile at someone for the first time , say to yourself “You did it!” or buy yourself an ice cream.

Sometimes you'll get your words mixed up（混合） and people will not understand you, sometimes people will say things too quickly and you can't understand them. But if you keep your sense of humour（幽默感）,you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes you make. Don't be unhappy if people seem to be laughing at your mistakes.

If there is a jam, you'll be prepared and can try another route.Take the road less traveled. Although highways may be the most direct route, back (偏僻的) roads can be much less crowded, which can save you from the frustration of the stop-and-go traffic.Rush hour isn't just a lovely nickname. It means the morning and afternoon traffic lasts for several hours, but they're still called "rush hour" for a reason - everyone's on the road and in a hurry to get somewhere. Treat rush hour like bad weather - if you don't have to go anywhere, stay off the roads.Tips for those unavoidable traffic jams:Don't break the law. You've gone 30 feet in 30 minutes and all of a sudden you see people using the shoulders（紧急停车道）． Don't behave like them. Not only is this illegal, but also there's a good chance they'll get caught or cause even more problems.Pay extra attention to zig-zaggers (Z字形行进者). When some people are anxious, they may start changing lanes（车道）every 5 seconds or cut you off, Keep checking your windows and mirrors. for these lane changers.Look for an escape. If it is possible to exit the road safely, do it. Use a GPS unit, and you can change your route mid-trip if needed.Be courteous. Good manners could help you avoid a possible accident. Allow people in from a lane that is ending. Speeding up to keep them out increases your chances of an accident.23．To avoid traffic jams,we are advised to do the following EXCEPT_______.A. get traffic news before leavingB. choose back roads.C. avoid rush hours.D. change lanes frequently.24．What should we do when there are zig-zaggers?A.Keep checking the mirrorsB.

中考复习（一）---阅读理解【阅读理解】（一）Anger is a kind of feeling. Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry.Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger.For example, you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.In fact, it's not good to hide your anger, and it's normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself. When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It's helpful to talk about your anger with an adult, such as parents, a teacher, etc.When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend; count from 1 to 100; give someone a hug ; go for a bike ride; think about good things, etc.Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse. Don't let your anger control you.1.

The head of the Community, Zhao Fuqin, said, “ The first Sunday, only eleven people came, but we picked up over seven big bags of rubbish from the sidewalk and street. The next weekkend, twenty people came, and filled eight rubbish bags. Now the neighborhood really looks great!”The Neighborhood Watch ProgramThe neighbors on Green Park began this program to look for problems in the neighborhood and to call the police if necessary. The neighbors all say the watch has already helped.Sun Yan, aged 60 , a retired teacher, said, “In the past, I felt afraid at night. Now I know my neighbors are watching for trouble.” According to the police, there are fewer problems in Green Park. “ Calls to 110 went down last month. Criminals knew that the people in Green Park were watching , so they stayed away,” said a policeman.The Neighborhood Fitness ProgramA Health Club was built last month, where the neighbors can do different kinds of sports like basketball, ping-pong, tennis, etc.. “Every morning you can see groups of neighbors running, dancing and playing Taijiquan. We have come to realize the importance of taking exercise,” said Chen Jinliang, a businessman of 45.The community has more plans. “We plan to start the Kids Care Program for children.

Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan.Things like these are called electronic waste, or e-waste. Dealing with them is not an easy job. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. What is worse, at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really g one in the earth.Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them.This town is named as “the e-waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poisons in e-waste find their way into the environment. An environmental group has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted.Luckily, the Chinese government wants to change the situation. This year, China passed a new environmental protection law. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. Hopefully, the problem with e-waste will be solved in the near future.( )1. The e-waste found in Hong Kong last month was from _____.A. FranceB. JapanC. GermanyD. Australia( )2.

Is it good for them? We interviewed some students. Here are some different opinions.Kids in China are now less independent. Usually they can’t live alone without their parents. But studying abroad is a good way to improve their self-care ability, because they can depend on one but themselves when they stay abroad. – He WeiI’ve always wanted to study in the UK. I think there is a completely different culture waiting for me to learn about. Although we may learn about it from textbooks and the Internet, I still think it is much better to look and feel by ourselves. – Wu TingtingSome studetns want to study abroad because they don’t like the senior high school entrance exam, but they need to study hard and keep a good habit. Although the exam brings students pressure, it helps. If not, some of them may relax too much and learn little. – Li Hua China has a long history, and I am a big fan of it. As a Chinese, I think we should learn about our history and culture first and then compare it with others. On the other hand, there are too many new things in foreigh countries. Lots of students may pay more attention to them and forget about their study. – Wang Li( ) 1 He Wei thinks kids will learn to be ________ when they study abroad.A independentB carefulC lonelyD relaxed( ) 2 Wang Li is interested in _______.A British cultureB English textbooksC senior high school entrance examD Chinese history( ) 3 ______ thinks exams can push studetns to study harder.A He WeiB Wu TingtingC Li HuaD Wang Li( ) 4 Wang Li disagrees to study abroad because students may ______.A forget Chinese historyB compare themselves with othersC pay less attention to studyD not like the exams( ) 5 Which of the following is TRUE?A Li Hua thinks students will learn little if there is too much pressure.B Wu Tingting thinks learning from experiencing is better than from textbooks.C Wang Li thinks studetns may pay more attention to study in foreign countries.D He Wei has great interest in Chinese culture and history.(五)To us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade(遮蔽) against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use : it became a symbol of honor and power(权力). In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the use of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it became a symbol of power.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors.( )1. Ancient people first used umbrellas as ____.A. a symbol of honorB. protection against the sunC. a symbol of powerD. protection against the rain( )2.

This passage is mainly about _____.A. the sales of the umbrellaB. the differences among umbrellasC. the invention of the umbrellaD. the history and the use of the umbrella\（六）Do you have any ideas about social skills?Social skills are the ways in which we get along with others. If we have good social skills we can become confident and happy. Of course a person with good social skills can live a relaxing life as well.Then what do social skills means? Cooperation is one of them that is to say working with others. We also call it teamwork. If you do your work in an active way when you work with others you do teamwork well. The following skills are important for you to work well with others.CommunicationIn order to communicate well with others you should be polite and some times you need gestures and eye contact.And having a sense of humor is also necessary.RespectingRespecting yourself and others is good for successful teamwork. As we all know everyone makes mistakes. You are not supposed to laugh at others even if they do make mistakes. No matter what you say and do you should be kind. And also you should try to make everybody feel happy and special.Joining inJoining in may be difficult for some people. But if you are active enough you can find it easier. Don’t always expect to win because you can’t always be the best.Social skills can help us not only work well with others but also help us feel good about ourselves.( ) 1 Social skills CANNOT help people _______.A get on well with othersB live longer and more healthilyC work well with othersD feel good about themselves( ) 2 The underlined word “ cooperation” might mean ______ in Chinese.A 聘任B 让步C 合作D 竞争( ) 3 ______ skills for workig with others have been mentioned in the passage.A TwoB ThreeC FourD Five( ) 4 _______ can help people communicate with others well.A Talking loudlyB Talking on the phoneC Being a winnerD Gestures and eye contact( ) 5 Which of the following is true?A Teamwork is really important while we are working with others.B An active person should always expect to be the best and win.C Asuccessful person will never make mistakes or laugh at others.D We can’t communicate well with other without a sense of humor.(七)At the start of a new year, students will usually write articles to review last year’s work and set goals for the coming year. Well, the Chinese government does this too---it writes the Government Work Report.Every year in spring, the National People’s Congress (全国人民代表大会) meetings are held in Beijing, and big issues (议题) of the country are discussed. At one meeting on March 5th, Premier Li Keqiang brought out this year’s Government Work Report. This year is quite special because 2016 is the beginning of the 13th Five-Year Plan. Thus, this report lays out (制定) a big plan, which China will follow over the next five years.Goals for the economy are always one of the most eye-catching parts. For a long time, Chinahas seen fast economic development. Both the country and its people have been becoming richer and richer. But last year, China saw the slowest economic growth speed in the past 25 years. The report pointed out that people don’t have to worry because China is welcoming a “new economy”. Goals for the economy are always one of the most eye-catching parts.China used to rely(依靠)a lot on industries like making clothes and toys, which don’t need much science or technology. But now China is changing. It will focus more on developing high-tech companies and service industries like tourism, according to the report.The report also plans to help people have better lives. The government needs to make sure that city air is clean 80 percent of the year. China will also help more people get good medical care, and they want to increase the average person’s lifetime b y one year.Although facing different kinds of problems, the report believes in a bright future for China. “From the start, China has been developing while dealing with challenges.

Well, you might just want to try it. Here are some Americans talking about slow food.Jenny: I had the best lunch with my friend Susi in the slow food snack bar last Thursday. I had the great tomato and cheese salad-much better than a pizza and a Coke. A farmer came to our school to tell us about slow food, which I had never heard of before. And now I want to go onilne to find out more about it. I think it’s really a good idea. I hope they will open more slow food restaurants soon.Karen: I’m very excited because I have startd to run my own business – a new snack bar called Good Food. It is special because we only have slow food. What is slow food? Well, it is more than just healthy food. Slow food is also about growing food in a good way so that environment is not hurt. Come and try my food- I think you’ll like it.Mark: I’m a farmer from Clifornia. I grow food in a special way- a way that is better for the environment. I sell a lot of my food to the restaurants and snacck bars in the city. And I also visit schools a lot and try to teach children about food, for some kids think that fast food is the only food.( ) 1 Jenny had ______ for her best lunch.A tomato and cheese saladB a pizza and a CokeC some fast foodD her favorite snacks( ) 2 ______ runs a slow food snack bar called Good Food.A JennyB SusiC KarenD Mike( ) 3 Jenny wants to find out more about slow food ______.A at schoolB in the barC on the InternetD in the library( ) 4 Mark triess to teach children about ______.A farmsB foodC businessD restanrants( ) 5 Which of the following is true ?A Everybody doesn’t like fast food.B Most of people have eaten slow food.C Many children in America only eat fast food.D Slow food is healthy and good for environment(九)You may know the saying: An apple a day keeps the doctor away. A recent study by the Chinese University of Hong Kong has discovered another saying: An apple a day keeps old age away.The study involved fruit flies(g果蝇), as they share many genes(基因) with humans. Researchers gave one group of fruit flies normal food, and another group of fruit flies got the same food including apple.The results showed that flies that ate apple lived an average of 55 days longer than the flies that didn’t eat apple. The study also found that apple-eating flies were more able to walk, climb and move about as they became old, the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry reports.The researchers believe that the antioxidants (抗氧化剂）found in apples are good for health. In another experiment, researchers studied the diets of thousands of women. They found that those women who often ate apples were 20 percent less likely to have heart disease.Scientists have recently discovered the apple’s genetic code(基因代码). This allows scientists to make new kinds of fruit that are healthier. Researchers are already using this information to grow apples with added antioxidants. Antioxidants help to keep eyes and joints (关节)healthy and protect against heart attacks and cancer.Apples that help people lose weight may be in supermarkets in just four or five years. They are said to be “extra healthy” apples that can stop people from overeating.( )1 The study by The Chinese University of Hong Kong finds that _____.A apples make doctors lose their jobsB apples keep people healthierC apples make people live longerD apples keep people happier( )2 Fruit flies were used in the research because _____.A they love to eat applesB they look like human beingsC they are easy to catchD they have similar genes to humans( )3 By studying the diets of many women, researchers ______.A found they are healthier than menB helped them to lose weight successfullyC discovered the genetic code of the appleD proved apples were good for people’s health ( )4 The underlined word “diets” might mean _______ in Chinese.A 饮食B 锻炼C 治疗D 休息( )5 From the passage, we can infer that ______.A people who eat apples are protected from heart diseaseB women like to eat apples more often than menC apple’s genetic code is similar to other fruitsD scientists are studying a new type of apples.（十）Most Recgnized Buildings Aroung the WorldWhen you think of a city, the first thing that pops into your mind may be its architecture(建The leaning Tower of Pisa, Pisa, ItalyThis tower is famous because it leans. Some people say that it leans because it was built on unsuitable ground in the 14th century. Scientists used many ways to make the tower stable(稳定的). According to experts, the tower can now be safe for the next two to three hundred years.The Emipre State Building(帝国大厦), New York, the USWhen you see this pencil-shaped building, you’ll know you are in New York. The Empire State Building has 102 floors, which is about 443 meters tall. It stands out from many other skyscrapers（摩天大楼）in the city. It took only 410 days to build it, and it was complete in 1931. The building showed the ambition(抱负) of humans to build a tower that could reach for the sky.Eiffel Tower, Paris, FranceThe Eiffel Tower stands for French people’s great imagination. It was built for a world fair in 1889. At that time, many people thought the tower was a monster. But it had great use in wireless technology, and as time went on more and more people turned out to love it.The Sydney Opera House, Sydney, AustraliaCompleted in 1973, it is the symbol of Sydney and Australia. Its unique sail shape attracts visitors around the world.Every year, two millio music lovers come here to watch performances. It is now the soul of Sydney. Together with the New Year Day’s firework show every year, it gives the city an artistic and romantic atmosphere.( ) 1 If you see the Empire State Building during the trip, you know you are in ______.A ItalyB the USC FranceD Australia( ) 2 If you were born in 1430 , you might visit _______.A the Leaning Tower of PisaB the Empire State BuildingC Eiffel TowerD the Sydney Opera House( ) 3 Which of the following is NOT true about Eiffel Tower?A It ws not popular among French people at the beginning.B It has great use in wireless technology.C It was built in the late 19th century.D It is the tallest tower in the world.( ) 4 The Sydney Opera House has the following things to attract visitors EXCEPT_______.A its unique shapeB its musical performanceC its long historyD the New Year Day’s firework show( ) 5 You might read the passage _______.A in a travel magazineB in a textbookC in a novelD in a science report(十一)Take a look at teenagers around, dressed in baggy-pants (宽松裤), drinking soft drinks such as coke, reading Japanese cartoons. Whether you are in Beijing, Wuhan or Hong Kong, you will get the same impression. But should we copy others or should we maintain (保留) our differences?It sounds convenient that people around the world speak the same language, dress in the same style, eat the same food and play the same games. If the world was like this, you won’t feel strange in any corner of world. But just imagine living in such a strange world. How dull and colorless it would be!Different kinds of food that people can taste, the colorful and fashionable clothes that we dress in and different languages we speak are all part of the different cultures that our ancestors left us. These differences represent their creativity and talent. And we all enjoy different cultures in our daily lives. When you travel to other places, you want to see different things. When you talk to foreigners you expect to listen to interesting stories. These differences in culture are what make life colorful.But the whole world is shrinking into a small village as globalization (全球化) takes effect and many different cultures are disappearing. In most big cities around the world people wear the same clothes. Fast food stores are everywhere. Hollywood movies are kicking traditional performing arts out of our lives. The colors of our life are disappearing.There is joke that even the panda and zebra want to live a colorful life. So let’s take action to protect our colorful culture before it becomes as simple as black and white.It’s not difficult. Learning some folk songs, trying on a traditional clothing and even eating local food instead of going to KFC can help. And we’re sure you will enjoy it.( ) 1.The passage is written to _______.A．explain cultural differences B．convince readers to maintain cultural differencesC．predict the future of globalization D．show some cultural phenomena(现象) ( )2.The author thinks that cultural differences _______.A．make the world colorful B．make communication difficult C．only exist in food and clothing D．will never fade away( )3.The author starts the argument by ________.A．mentioning certain cultural phenomena B．mentioning his view at the very beginningC．mentioning the opposite view at the very beginning D．giving examples of cultural differences( )4.The underlined word “shrink” probably means “_______”.A．expand B．disappear C．become smaller D．grow in number ( )5.The author talks of all the following cultural phenomena except _______.A．food B．clothing C．language D．architecture。

the lid of the kettle move up and down．He wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the lid．From that time he went on thinking and thinking．And when he became a man，he improved the steam engine （蒸汽机）so much that it could easily do the work of many horses．James Ferguson was a poor boy．Once，seeing the inside of a watch，he wondered．"Why should I not make a watch？"But how could he get the materials to make the mainspring （钟表的主发条）？He soon found he could make it with whalebone （鲸骨）．He then made a wooden clock which kept good time．His motto （座右铭）was"I will think of it．"And he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world．Boys and girls，when you have a difficult lesson to learn，don't lose heart，and don't ask someone for help before helping yourselves．Think，and by thinking you will learn how to think to some purpose．1．From the passage，we know that some great things come from．A．listening B．reading C．speaking D．thinking2．The idea of Isaac Newton's discovery was from．A．the

thinking you will learn how to think to some purpose．2．We can't remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to a dinner table．This happens a lot，especially when we eat out．Once a dish comes，instead of lifting our chopsticks，we take out our mobiles and click．Later，we post the photos onto Weibo or Wechat，waiting to be"liked"．Then we check our mobiles from time 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 did an experiment．Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food．As a result，it showed that the more photos they took，．So，why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the food in front of you？Besides the scientific result，there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals．After posting the photos onto the Internet，one will not be able to control himself and check his mobile many times．"Does everyone like my photos？I hope a lot of people like them!"It seems that your mobile secretly calls your name all the time，even when you are with real people．So，next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends，how about not taking photos of food？Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you．Trust me，it will be a

food and share them with others．C．Remember to have dinner with our family and friends at home．D．Enjoy the life with people around us instead of taking photos of food．3．Should Children Be Allowed to Get Bored？Children need time to stand and stare．They should be allowed to get bored so that they can develop their ability to be creative．Children are expected by their parents to be reading a textbook all the time．However，research shows that it may hamper the development of their imagination，while boredom can give them opportunities to develop creativity．Boredom is often linked with loneliness，but a writer named Meera Syal said boredom had helped here in developing her mind．She told researchers about her childhood．Having few things to do，Syal often talked with her neighbors．She also tried to do things like learning to bake cakes．"But importantly，I thought and wrote a lot，because I was bored，"Syal said．She kept a diary，filling here time with short stories and poems she made up．Grayson Perry，an artist，grew up in a family with little money．He enjoyed himself by making up stories，drawing pictures for his stories and reading many books in the library．Bored but free，he spent hours looking out of the window，watching the changing clouds and seasons．Perry filled up his free time with what he liked．He became creative，because he could think freely．Dr．Belton is an expert on the effects of emotions on learning．"Boredom could be an uncomfortable feeling，"she said．"But some young people cannot deal with that boredom creatively．So sometimes they may break a classroom window，or drive a car out for a mad race．"Usually，when children have nothing to do，they would turn on the TV，the computer，or the phone．Their time on these things has increased，yet they need to have time to think about their experiences through play or just watching the world around them．It is this kind of thinking that can inspire the imagination．On the other hand，the TV or phone may cut short the thinking process．That can be harmful to the development of creativity．"For developing the ability to be creative，"Dr．Belton advised，"perhaps we need to stand and stare，and stay off﹣line from time to time．" 1．What does the word"hamper"in Paragraph 2probably mean？A．Slow down．B．Keep up with．C．Go beyond．D．Give rise to．2．The writer talks about Syal and Perry to．A．stress the great differences between themB．introduce a popular writer and a famous artistC．suggest good ways of going through boredomD．show effects of boredom on developing creativity3．What can we learn from the passage？A．Boredom provides children with space to think freely．B．It's much better for children to be busy than be bored．C．Boredom helps children deal with difficulties properly．D．It's boring for children to think about their experiences．4．I stopped to watch my little daughter busy playing in her room．In one hand was a plastic phone．In the other hand was a toy broom．I listened as she was speaking to her imaginary friend and I'll never forget the words she said，even though it was pretended（假装）．She said，"Surie's in the corner because she's not been very good．She didn't listen to a word I said or do the things she should．"In the corner I saw her baby doll all dressed in pink．It was obvious she'd been put there to sit alone and think．My daughter continued her"conversation"as I sat down on the floor．She said，"I'm all fed up．I just don't know what to do with her anymore．She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games，too．She never lets me do the things that I just have to do．She tries to help me with the dishes，but her arms just cannot reach and she doesn't know how to fold towels．I don't have the energy to teach．I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean，I don't have the time to sit and play．Don't you know what I mean？"And that day I thought a lot about making some changes in my life，as I listened to her innocent（天真的）words that cut me like a knife．I hadn't been paying enough attention to my most dear．But how my attitude has changed，because，in my heart，I realize I've seen the world in a different light through my little darling's eyes．So，let the cobwebs（蜘蛛网）have the corners and the dust bunny rabbit rule the floor．I'm not going to worry about keeping up with them anymore．I'm going to fill the house with memories of a child and her mother，for we have only one childhood，and we will never get another．1．What does the underlined word"She"in Paragraph 3 refer to（指的是）？A．The daughter's motherB．Suzie's daughterC．Suzie's baby dollD．The daughter's baby dool2．How did mother feel when she heard the"conversation"？A．WorriedB．DisappointedC．RegretfulD．Sad3．What's the purpose of the story？A．The mother should be angry with her daughterB．The mother should spend enough time with her daughterC．The mother shouldn't change her attitude to her daughterD．The mother shouldn't pay attention to her daughter's words．参考答案与试题解析1．"I will think of it．"It is

learn how to think to some purpose．【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的教育文化类阅读，说明"我将要思考它"说起来容易，真正做起来就能成就很多伟大的事情，文章举例了牛顿发现万有引力，瓦特发明蒸汽机，詹姆斯用鲸骨制作钟表的主发条，并且从此把"我要思考它"作为自己的座右铭．最后发出倡导，当我们遇到困难的时候，不要灰心，在你自己能解决问题之前不要寻求他人的帮助，自己多思考，通过思考你将学会如何去达到一些目的．【解答】21．D 细节理解题，根据第一段"It is easy to say this，but do you know what great things have come from thinking？可知，一些伟大的事情来自于思考，所以选D．22．A 细节理解题，根据文章第二段，牛顿发现万有引力是根据他看到苹果从树上落下来，他开始思考为什么苹果落下来，到发现万有引力．所以选A23．C 细节理解题，从文章From that time he went on thinking and thinking．And when he became a man，he improved the steam engine （蒸汽机）so much that it could easily do the work of many horses．所以瓦特的成就是改善了蒸汽机，所以选C．24．B 内容理解排序题，根据文章第四段的内容，当他看到钟表内部的结构，就在想为什么自己不能制作一个手表呢，不久他先用鲸骨做了一个主发条，然后他作了一个木制的闹钟．所以排列顺序是②③①，故选B．25．D 考查文章主旨题，根据文章最后一句，Think，and by thinking you will learn how to think to some purpose．可知，文章主要大意就是通过思考，你将会学会怎样达到某个目的．【点评】阅读理解题通常从细节，文章主旨，推测词组大意几个方面考查学生对文章的理解，做题时注意找到文章出处，做到有理有据．2．We can't remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to a dinner table．This happens a

细节理解题．从原文第一句We can't remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to a dinner table．以及整个文章的讲述可知，指的是D的内容；62．B 细节理解题．As a result，it showed that the more photos they took，________．从关键词as a

result，there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals．可知，全段是谈论吃饭前拍照的一些其他的坏的影响，故答案为D；64．C 推测作者观点题．排除法．题目的关键词是opinion（观点），而ABD选项都是现象的描述，并非观点，因此答案为C．65．D 主旨归纳题．根据本文最后一句Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you．Trust me，it will be a wonderful time．可知作者的写作目的﹣﹣享受与眼前人一起的生活，而不是饭前拍照．Enjoy the life with people around us instead of taking photos of food．故答案为D．【点评】首先浏览全文，概括主旨大意，理清写作结构，浏览题目，抓住关键词，快速得出答案．3．Should Children Be Allowed to Get Bored？Children need time to stand and stare．They should be allowed to get bored so that they can

boredomD．show effects of boredom on developing creativity55．What can we learn from the passage？AA．Boredom provides children with space to think freely．B．It's much better for children to be busy than be bored．C．Boredom helps children deal with difficulties properly．D．It's boring for children to think about their experiences．【分析】应该允许孩子无聊吗？孩子需要时间发呆放空，他们应该被允许感到无聊，那样他们才可以发展创造力．父母期望孩子一直读教科书，然而研究表明，它会妨碍孩子想象力的发展，而无聊可以给他们发展创造力的机会．无聊常与孤独有关，但是一个叫Meera Syal的作家说，无聊对发展她的思想有帮助．她告诉研究者们，她的孩提时代几乎无事可做，她经常与邻居聊天．她也试图去做一些事情，像烤蛋糕．"但是重要地是，我想了很多，写了很多，因为我很无聊．"Syal说．她坚持写日记，用短故事和诗来打发时间．Grayson Perry，一名艺术家，在一个贫穷家庭长大．他通过编故事、为他的故事配图、在图书馆里看书来愉悦自己．无聊但很空闲，他花几个小时眺望窗外，看云彩的变化和季节的变换．Perry用他喜欢的事情来填满他的空闲时间，他变得有创造力，因为他可以自由地思考．Belton博士是一个研究情感对学习的影响的专家．"无聊可能是一种不舒服的感受，"她说，"但是一些年轻人不能创造性地处理那种无聊．"所以有时他们会砸坏教室的窗子或者开快车来发泄．通常，当孩子们没有事可做时，他们会打开电视、电脑或打电话，他们花费在这些事情上的时间增加了，但他们仍需要时间通过玩或者观察周围的世界来考虑他们的感受．这就是那种可以激发他们想象力的思考．另一方面，电视或电话可能会短暂地打断这个思考过程，那对他们创造力的发展会有害．"为了发展创造力，"Belton博士说，"或许我们需要发呆放空，并且不时地远离网络．"【解答】53．A 词义猜测题．根据research shows that it may hamper the development of their imagination，while boredom can give them opportunities to develop creativity．可以进行词义猜测，while（然而），表示同一方面两个不同事物的对比，存在相反的情况，根据while boredom can give them opportunities to develop creativity（然而无聊可以给他们开发创造力的机会），可知是就"无聊的影响"这一方面来说的，而且后面说到的是好的影响，可以推测前面说到的是相反的情况﹣﹣不好的影响．BCD选项都有积极的含义，B．Keep up with，和…并驾齐驱；C．Go beyond．超越；D．Give rise to．提升，唯有A选项slow down是"减慢"的意思，有负面的影响，意为"妨碍；牵制，减慢"．故答案为A．54．D 推理判断题．根据原文"…Meera Syal said boredom had helped her in developing her mind．"和"He became creative，because he could think freely．"可知作者谈论这两个人是为了表明无聊在发展创造力方面的影响，故选D．55．A 主旨大意题．本文主要是说，无聊给孩子提供了自由思考的空间，故选A．【点评】本文主要是说无聊给孩子提供了自由思考的空间，孩子需要发展创造力．题止涉及到词义猜测、推理判断和主旨大意题，要在抓住关键句子的基础上进行合理地分析才能得出正确答案，切记不能乱猜，一定做到有理有据．4．I stopped to watch

all dressed in pink．It was obvious she'd been put there to sit alone and think．My daughter continued her"conversation"as I sat down on the floor．She said，"I'm all fed up．I just don't know what to do with her anymore．She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games，too．She never lets me do the things that I just have to do．She tries to help me with the dishes，but her arms just cannot reach and she doesn't know how to fold towels．I don't have the energy to teach．I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean，I don't have the time to sit and play．Don't you know what I mean？"And that day I thought a lot about making some changes in my life，as I listened to her innocent（天真的）words that cut me like a knife．I hadn't been paying enough attention to my most dear．But how my attitude has changed，because，in my heart，I realize I've seen the world in a different light through my little darling's eyes．So，let the cobwebs（蜘蛛网）have the corners and the dust bunny rabbit rule the floor．I'm not going to worry about keeping up with them anymore．I'm going to fill the house with memories of a child and her mother，for we have only one childhood，and we will never get another．59．What does the underlined word"She"in Paragraph 3 refer to（指的是）？DA．The daughter's motherB．Suzie's daughterC．Suzie's baby dollD．The daughter's baby dool60．How did mother feel when she heard the"conversation"？CA．WorriedB．DisappointedC．RegretfulD．Sad61．What's the purpose of the story？BA．The mother should be angry with her daughterB．The mother should spend enough time with her daughterC．The mother shouldn't change her attitude to her daughterD．The mother shouldn't pay attention to her daughter's words．【分析】我停下来，注视着正在她的房间里忙着玩耍的小女儿．她一手拿着一个塑料电话，另一只手拿着一个玩具扫帚．我听到了她跟她假想中的"小朋友"在谈话，而她说的每一个字都让我永远牢记，即使那是假装的．女儿说："苏西就在角落里，因为她表现的不好．她连一个字都不肯听我说，也不干她该做的事情．"我看到她的娃娃在角落里，浑身上下都穿着粉红色的衣服．很显然，她是被放在那里的，让她独自坐在那儿反思．当我在地板上坐下来的时候，女儿还在继续她的"谈话"．她说："我受够了，我不知道还能拿她怎么办？每当我工作时，她就开始哭闹，还想要玩游戏．她从来不让我去干我该干的事情．她想帮我刷碗，但她的手够不到，毛巾怎么叠也不知道．我没有时间去教她，我还有一大堆的事情要去处理，这么间大房子要去打扫．我没有时间去坐下来陪她玩﹣﹣你明白我的意思吗？"那天，我想了很多改变了我的生活的事情．当我听着女儿那些天真的话语时，我心如刀割．我没有给予我最爱的人足够的关注．不过现在，我的态度发生了转变，因为我从心里意识到…我透过亲爱的小女儿的眼睛，从另一个角度看到了这个世界．所以，就让蜘蛛网呆在墙角，让地板铺满灰尘吧，我再也不为这些琐事操心了．我要让房间里充满一个孩子和她母亲的回忆…因为我们每个人都只有一个童年，一旦失去就再也找不回了．【解答】59．答案：D．词义理解题．根据She said，"Surie's in the corner because she's not been very good．She didn't listen to a word I said or do the things she should．"In the corner I saw her baby doll all dressed in pink．It was obvious she'd been put there to sit alone and think．可知她是在和自己的玩具娃娃在说话，故选D．60．答案：C．推理判断题．根据And that day I thought a lot about making some changes in my life，as I listened to her innocent（天真的）words that cut me like a knife．I hadn't been paying enough attention to my most dear．可知小女孩的妈妈很后悔，没有更多的关注自己的女儿，故选C．61．答案：B．主旨大意题．根据I'm going to fill the house with memories of a child and her mother，for we have only one childhood，and we will never get another可知本文是要告诉我们妈妈要更多的关注自己的孩子，故选B．【点评】要善于抓住每段的主题句，阅读时，要有较强的针对性．对于捕获到的信息，要做认真分析，仔细推敲，理解透彻，只有这样，针对题目要求，才能做到稳、准．。
