the guest﹣host relationship(关系)in China is much different than in some western countries.It seems that they are not nice guests.And western guests sometimes look rude in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China,guests are almost like gods(上帝).Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home,there is always fruit on the table for me,and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water.In the west,generally the guest is not a god.Acting according to(根据)the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife's mother,a very kind elderly Chinese lady,doesn't smoke.When I see some of her guests smoking in her house,as a non﹣smoker,I feel unhappy.Usually I want to stop them directly(直接地),but I must realize that in China,to be a good host,she must not do that.In most North America homes,if you are a guest,and the hosts are not smokers,you should not smoke in their house.At the very least,you could ask,"Is it OK if I smoke?"But don't besurprised if the hosts say,"No,you can't smoke."In our culture,if you smoke in their home,you are a bad guest,but if they don't allow you to smoke in their house,they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits.Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon.Thankfully my wife is Chinese,so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift.However,giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country.So,if you invite international guests to yourhome,don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.In China,you probably won't need to change the guest﹣host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host,and Chinese are naturally very good hosts.If western hosts invite you to their house,try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.(1)Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the A in the world.A.bestB.worstC.most naturalD.most difficult(2)When a western guest visits a Chinese family,he often B.A.buys some fruitB.feels like a godC.wants some giftsD.takes a cup of tea(3)If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house,what will he probably say?CA.It's OK if you smoke here.B.Let's smoke together.C.Sorry,you can't smoke here.D.Smoking is a bad habit.(4)What is the meaning of the underlined phrase"adapt to"in the passage?B A.think back toB.get used toC.look forward toD.keep close to(5)What is the main idea of this passage?DA.Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B.Hosts must do things in the guest's way.C.Western hosts are always nice to guests.D.People should understand cultural differences.【解答】ABCBD1.A.细节理解题;根据In the eyes of many foreigners.Chinese are the best hosts (主人)and the worst guests in the world可知在外国人眼里中国人是世界上最好的主人,best最好的,worst最糟糕的,故选A.2.B.细节理解题;根据In China,guests are almost like gods可知在中国,宾客就像是上帝,故选B.3.C.推理判断题;根据When I see some of her guests smoking in her house,as a non﹣smoker,I feel unhappy.Usually I want to stop them directly可以推断看到有人吸烟,作者会上前阻止,会说Sorry,you can't smoke here,故选C.4.B.词义理解题;根据Guests in China also have special habits.Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon.前文是说在中国的客人也有一些特别的习惯,故猜测adapt to表示习惯于,适应,表示西方人不能很快适应这些习惯,故选B.5.D.主旨大意题;本篇文章是说的中西方国家宾主关系的不同,对待客人的习惯不同,人们应该理解这种文化上的不同,故选D.10.(2015•真题)One day after school,I went to the teacher's office to see my teacher,but nobody was there.As I was about to leave,I noticed a piece of paper on the floor.I picked it up and saw the words"FINAL﹣TERM EXAMINATION"at the top.I put the paper into my school bag

They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide that she loves you. She? Yes, she. It?s true that male mosquito doesn?t bite(咬) and only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn?t like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosqui to bites you, just remember you are chosen. You?re different from the others!If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. By the time the itching begins, and she has flown away.And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She just wants to find a place to have a good rest.

Think about all the water faucets (水龙头) in the toilet. Think about all the air conditioning in summer. Saving energy is a hot topic for such a big place!Many things at the mall use energy. Electric lights, infrared(红外感应) faucets andair-conditioners need electricity to work.One way to save energy is by keeping lights clean. More and more dust and dirt make the lights less bright. When malls keep lights clean, they can use fewer lights and keep the area just as bright. Using fewer lights means using less energy.You step up to the water faucet. The water starts to flow.

Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, mother kept differentthings for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she?d said again, “it?s for Elizabeth. ”I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive(原谅) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn?t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only kn ew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told, as she?d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.1. The writer began to love her mother?s de sk ______.A. after Mother diedB. before she became a writerC. when she was a childD. when Mother gave it to her2. The passage shows that ______.A. mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughterB. mother was too serious about everything her daughter had doneC. mother cared much about her daughter in wordsD. mother wrote to her daughter in careful words3.

What did mother do with her daughter?s letter asking forgiveness?A. She had never received the letter.B. For years, she often talked about the letter.C. She didn?t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.D. She read the letter again and again till she died.5. What?s the best title of the passage?A. My letter to MotherB. Mother and ChildrenC.

2019年中考英语:阅读理解训练题(8)附答案第一篇(2019中考科普环保类选练)Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives. For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite. Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving. Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls.Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to US through satellites. Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location.We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another. They are usually 35,880 kilometers above the equator. Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place. This is because it is moving around the world at 11,000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates.A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae facing the earth. Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit,So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position. This usually happens about every five or six days.Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth. A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years. Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired. Often,very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time. This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other.1.Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage?A. Sending information for weather forecast.B. Taking photographs of the Earth.C. Sending TV pictures.D. Providing food for airplane pilots.2.What’s the speed the earth rotates at?A.35,880 kilometers per hour.B.335,880 kilometers per hour.C.11,000 kilometers per hour.D.110,000 kilometers per hour3.Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates?A. In order to take photographs.B. In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit.C. In order to move away from its orbit.D. In order to send television pictures.4.What does the underlined word “This” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?A. Asatellite.B.A little rocket.C. A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky.D.

If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this,“I’m afraid it’ll have to be someplace cheap, as I have very little money." The other person may say,“O K, I’ll meet you at McDonald’s."This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say,“Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Smith’s," or“I want you to try the Chinese dumplings there. They’re great." This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn’t pay for the meal. You may just say,“Thank you. That would be very nice."American customs(1) about who pays for dates(2) are much the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university(3) girl or a woman in business world will usually pay her way during the day. If a man asks her for a dance outside the working hours, it means “Come, as my guest(4).” So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning.Notes:(1)custom/`kstm/n. 风俗(2)date/deIt/n.约会(3)university/、ju:nI`v:sItI/n. 大学(4)guest/gest/n. 客人1.The passage tells us .A.how to eat outB.where to eat outC.what to eat outD.who pays for the meal2.If you have little money, .A.you’ll have a cheap mealB.you’ll borrow some from othersC.you’ll ask your friend to pay for your mealD.you won’t want your friends to ask you to dinner3.“Go Dutch" in this passage means .A.去饭馆B.就餐C.订餐D.各自付款4.Sometimes your friend takes you to lunch.

2019届中考英语阅读理解50篇( 精品训练题)1When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’d sit on the edge of the dock(码头), feet dangling(摇晃), and got ready for a big meal.Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest.Bernie was my father’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.For many years, I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.Well, I’ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw t he rest away.1. We learned from the second paragraph that the writer and his father were feeling ______.A. relaxedB. worriedC. hungryD. proud2. How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon?A. They ate it in a polite way.B. They only ate its best part.C. They ate every part of it.D. They shared only one piece.3. In the eyes of the writer’s father, Bernie ______.A. was just a rich businessmanB. worked hard all the timeC. lived a rich but healthy lifeD. knew how to make money4. The underlined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph refers to ______.A. the best part of the watermelonB. the writer’s busy lifeC. the writer’s decision of making moneyD. the writer’s hope of enjoying life5. It can be learned from the passage that ______.A. one has to work hard to reach his goalB. a friend in need is a friend in deedC. watermelon is the healthiest fruitD. one should keep work-life balance答案:ABCDD2Paul and Jason were brothers who lived and worked on neighboring farms.For 35 years they farmed side by side, sharing machinery and goods as needed, without a single proble. However,one autumn,things changed.It began with a tiny disagreement about a horse,which grew into a major difference. The difference led to angry words, followed by weeks of silence between the two brothers.One morning there was a knock on Paul’s door.He opened it and saw a builder holding his toolbox.“I’m looking for a few days’ work,”the builder said.“Are there any jobs here I could help with?” “Yes, ”answered Paul, extremely pleased to see the builder.“I do have a job for you.Look at that farm across the creek(小溪).That’s my brother’s farm.

Then, Paul, with tears in his eyes, said to the builder who was packing his bag to go, “Thank you so 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 theScots. 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.

Of course it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the youngmen to go outside. Mr White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.Once Mr White was ill in bed. He couldn’t work and a young officer, Mr Hunt began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening to the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they drank wine. Of course they found the officer was angry.“I’m sorry, sir,” said the first soldier. “I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here.I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back.”And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier’s turn. He said, “I’m sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but…”Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out, “If you say something was wrong with your bus, I’ll punish you at once!”“No, no, sir,” said the young man. “My bus was all right, but the horse died!”( )1.The military camp was built in the village to .A. stop the soldiers from going to townsB. stop the soldiers from meeting their friendsC. train the new soldiersD. make the young men live quietly( )2.Mr Hunt let the nine soldiers have a holiday because .A. he was kind to themB. they felt lonelyC. they had something important to doD. they were the best of all( )3.The young officer was worried because .A. a traffic accident had happenedB. he was afraid something happened to the nine soldiersC. the nine soldiers would come backD. the nine soldiers drank too much in the town( )4.The nine soldiers returned to the camp late because .A. something was wrong with their busesB. their horses died on the return wayC. it took them much time to run backD. they all drank much in the town( )5.Which answer do you think is true?A.

One night, while the man was at work, he realized that he had extra(额外的) work to do for the evening, and that he wouldn’t be able to play with his son.

He explained that it was a map of the world, and that by the time his son could put it back together, his extra work would be finished, and they could both play. Surely this would keep the child busy for hours, he thought.About half an hour later the boy came to the man and said, “OK, it’s finished. Can we playnow?” The man was surprised, saying, “That’s impossible. Let’s go and see.” And sure enough, there was the picture of the world, all put together, every piece in its place.

There are only a few men in all of history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work.But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. He tried to understand them, and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them.Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure.Edison could not understand how anyone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. “Work,” he answered, “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.1.According to Thomas Edison, what’s genius?A.Hard thinking.B.Hard work.eful dreams.eful inventions.2.After exploring the secrets of nature, Edison always tried to .A.write down what he had learntB.carry out a new experimentC.make them useful in lifeD.share them with others3.Edison could not understand .A.how anybody enjoyed lifeB.how anybody loved workingC.why anybody loved thinkingD.why anybody was tired of life4.The last sentence in the passage means that .A.Edison was born to be a great inventorB.Edison was able to live another 100 yearsC.Edison was ready to make his 100 th inventionD.life was too short for Edison to work for human beings答案:BCDD9I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she’d said again, “it’s for Elizabeth. ”I never saw her get angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any wayshe chose that she did forgive(原谅) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to mak e her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.1.

On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin(顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, sir?” he asked.Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it did cost you nothing? Sir, I wish…” He hesitated(犹豫). Paul thought of course he knew what the boy wanted,but what the boy said surprised him greatly. “I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, and then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love to,” the boy answered.After a short ride, the boy turned a nd with his eyes shining, said, “Sir, would you mind driving in front of my house?”Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(残疾的) brother. He sat down on the step and pointed to the car.“There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”“How much do you have?” asked the man. “$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answe red.“Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers.”He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live.

Their experiments show how we sometimes just do notsee what is in front of our eyes because 4Here is one of their most famous experiments. In this experiment, the participants (参与者) were shown a video of two groups of people (one group in white T-shirts and one group in blackT-shirts) who passed basketballs around in a hallway. Each group had three members. Simons and Chabris asked the participants to count how many times the white team passed the ball.

Today, if a girl acts like she is better than everyone else, you might say she should get off her high horse.Yesterday my children wanted me to take them to the playground. But I had to finish my work, so I said, "Hold your horses. Wait until I finish what I am doing." My two boys like tocompete against each other and play in a noisy and not very careful way. I always tell them to stop horsing around or someone could get hurt.Last night, I got a telephone call while I was watching my favourite TV show.

'"I'm going for a swim," Ben said, "but you don't want to come. You want to work, don't you?It's much nicer!" Ben laughed loudly. Tom looked seriously at Ben and said, "What is work?What do you call work?""Isn't that work?" Ben asked."Well, no. Does a boy get the opportunity to paint a fence every day?

We usually have activities from 4:50 to 5:50 in the afternoon. We have different kinds of activities. If you are interested in sports, you can play basketball or football.

Now they have found something new-hot cities! In the southern US, they have found that cities become very hot in summer. For example, the city of Atlanta in Georgia has rooftop temperatures of up to 50 degrees while it is 27 degrees in the streets! At night, the outsides of the building stay so hot that the heat of the city causes storm over the city.China also has the same kind of problems. Every year more farming land is used for factories or offices. More housing is needed, too. As people become richer, they buy more cars. Now roads are needed and new car parks are built in the city centers. This all makes the city hotter.It is not easy to change the situation. City planners say that we should plant more trees in the middle of cities. Every new street should have trees on both sides, they say. Trees make the temperatures lower, so we should have more trees in our parks and squares. Also we should paint our roofs white. If we do this, they do not become so hot. Every roof in a hot and sunny country should have solar roof panels. The electricity from these can be used to run the air conditioners in the building.People continue to cut down forests around the cities. This makes the problem worse. Cities are growing faster and faster. By the year 2025, 80% of the world’s population will be living in cities. If we go on like this, there will not be enough farmland to feed everyone in the world.1. The best title for the passage is _______.A. The earth is getting warmerB. More land is neededC. Cities are warmer in winterD. Scientists are worried about storms2. What have scientists found?A. Atlanta is the hottest town in the USA.B. Buildings become very hot in the sun.C. It is not as hot on the roof as in the street.D. There are not as many storms as before.3. What can we do to make the cities cooler?A. Make more Parks.B. Use air conditioners more.C. Paint the roofs of all the white buildings.D. Plant more trees.4. What may happen in future?A. Most people will move to the villages.B. People will plant more trees outside the cities.C. We will not have enough food.D. The problem will get better, not worse参考答案1—4 ABDC【实战训练】 D(2019中考选练)It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people ge t jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail(详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of humans. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.1. People with little education usually _______.A. spend a long time in schoolB. have a good chance to get a jobC. spend the best years to choose jobsD. have a smaller chance to get a good job2. The earliest education was probably to _______.A. make a man lead a better lifeB. teach a man to write and thinkC. make people get a way of livingD. teach people to read good books3. The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “_______” in Chinese.A. 圆满的B. 崭新的C. 公平的D. 全面的4. It is expected that educated people will be able to _______.A. accept education as a way of livingB. take an interest in the whole worldC. develop their abilities to make playsD. learn subjects like language and math5. The passage mainly tells us that _______.A. education should make a man improveB. people can get education in a short timeC. people should be able to get better-paid jobsD. all subjects are so important for a way of living参考答案1. D 2. C 3. D 4. B 5. A【实战训练】 E(2019中考训练题)A. Charles Dickens. B. William Thackeray.C. Edward Edwards. D. Graham Blake.2.Who can use public library services?A. CD or DVD sellers.B.

Offering special services to pupils.D. Going to a certain place at a certain time.4.Why did the school in London build its library on an old bus?A. Because parents offered the school an old bus.B. Because pupils thought it was fun to read on a bus.C.Because the school didn’t have enough money to buy books.D.Because the school didn’t have enough space inside the building.5.What can we learn from the passage?A.

2019年中考英语阅读理解15篇专项练习(名师精选试题+实战训练,建议下载练习)一.填空题(共1小题)1.Laura Fagan,a 29﹣year﹣old British girl,has a special job.She is paid well to taste chocolate,desserts and cakes.Laura works in the famous supermarket,Tesco.Her job is to try different kinds of desserts.She needs to try as many as 20desserts a day.Also,she always travels for work.She needs to travel to different cities to try different desserts.Although the job seems to be great,it is hard.Usually,Laura begins trying desserts as early as 8am,and is still trying new desserts at 6pm before she goes back home.Luckily,the job hasn't made her too heavy.She only worries about her teeth."Of course I was afraid of becoming fat when I started the job,so I try to do exercise as often as possible.The main thing is my teeth.I don't think my dentist will be happy if I tell her what I do,so I try to brush my teeth as often as possible,"Laura told a reporter.She goes to the gym to keep slim (苗条的)and takes more care of her teeth after trying the desserts.She said,"When I tell people what I do,they say it's the best job in the world."Laura loves her job although it is hard."I can learn about new trends (动态)in food,"she said.二.阅读理解(共13小题)2.Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon?Many people feel this way after lunch.They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness.Or,in summer,they may think it is the heat.However,the real reason lies inside their bodies.At that time,about eight hours after you wake up,your body temperature goes down.This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy.Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night of day.The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern.They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.In many parts of the world,people take naps in the middle of the day.This is especially true in warmer weather,in which the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon.Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any weather.A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind,which is good for health in general.In countries where naps are traditional,people don't often have problems such as heart disease.Many working people,unluckily,have no time to take naps.Though doctors may advise taking naps,employers (老板)do not allow it! If you do have the chance,however,here are a few tips about making the most of your nap.Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up.A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward.This can also happen if you sleep for too long._____;even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.(1)According to the passage,the reason why you sometimes feel sleepy in the early afternoon is that.A.you eat too much for lunchB.it's hot in summerC.your body temperature goes down at that timeD.you didn't have a good sleep last night(2)Which of the following can be put in the blank the most properly?A.If you do not have enough time,try a short napB.When you are not allowed to take a rest,listen to the doctorC.Although you are not sleepy,take a napD.After lunchtime,take a nap(3)Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.If you get up at 6:30 am,you'd better take a nap at about 11:30 am.B.Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.C.You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time.D.You'll feel sleepy at a regular period of time.(4)What would be the best title for the text?A.Just for a RestB.All for a NapC.Getting Tired and SleepyD.Taking Naps in Warmer Weather3.Two men were sitting together in a plane.They were on a long journey.One of the men was a businessman.The other was a farmer.They sat without talking for a while,then the farmer said,"Let's do something to pass the time.""What do you want to do?"the businessman asked."We can ask each other riddles,"the farmer said."OK.Let's make rules first,"the businessman said."If you don't know the answer to a riddle,you pay me$100.And if I don't know the answer,I'll pay you$100.""That's not fair (公平).You are a businessman with much knowledge.You know more things than I do.I am just a farmer,"the farmer said."That's true,"the businessman said."What do you want us to do?""If you don't know the answer to a riddle,you pay me$100.And if I don't know the answer,I'll pay you$50,"the farmer said.The businessman thought about this,then he said,"OK.That's fair.Who will go first?""I will,"the farmer said."Here is my riddle.What has three legs when it walks,but only two legs when it flies?"The businessman thought for a long time and said,"Mm,that's a good one.I'm afraid Idon't know the answer."He gave the farmer$100,then he said,"Tell me the answer.""I don't know,"the farmer said,then he gave the businessman$50.26.The story happened.A.on a farmB.in a shopC.before a long plane journeyD.between two passengers27.What does the word"riddle"mean in this story?A.Something to win money.B.Something to help to make rules.C.A difficult question to find the answer to.D.A kind of game in doing business.28.Why did the businessman agree to give more money if he lost?A.He made much more money than the farmer.B.He thought he knew more than the farmer.C.He was interested in making riddles.D.He was better at playing riddle games.29.The farmer.A.didn't enjoy himself on his long journeyB.didn't want to pay even one dollarC.spent all his money on the plane ticketD.won fifty dollars by playing the riddle game30.Which of the following is NOT true?A.The two men made rules for their riddle game.B.The farmer was more clever than the businessman.C.The two men made their riddle game more interesting by playing it for money.D.The businessman knew the answer to this riddle.4.In a forest close to the river bank lived a crane(鹤)and his wife.They were very unhappy.Every time the wife laid eggs in their nest,a big snake who lived in the sametree would eat them up.One day,the crane came up with a plan to get rid of the snake.He told his wife about his plan at once."Are you sure this will work?"asked his wife."I hope we are not making a mistake Think twice before going ahead with the plan."But the crane didn't listen to his wife.He was eager to try out the plan.He flew down to the river bank and began to catch fish.He caught several little fish and went down to a hole in which a mongoose(猫鼬)lived.He dropped a fish at the mouth of the hole.Then he took another fish and dropped it a little further away from the first one Repeating this,he made a trail(一串)of fish leading to the tree where his nest was.The mongoose smelt the fish and came out of the hole."Ah,a fish! "the mongoose shouted joyfully and quickly ate it up.As he went near the tree where the cranes and the snake lived,the trail ended.Finding no more fish he looked around.Suddenly,he came across the snake at the foot of the tree.Seeing the mongoose,the snake fought for his life.They fought for a long time and,in the end,the mongoose killed the snake.The cranes smiled with relief.The next day,the mongoose began to follow the same trail,hoping to find more food.When he came to the tree,he decided to climb up the tree in search of food.The cranes who were away at the river bank returned to find the mongoose climbing down the tree.On looking into their nest,they discovered that this time,the mongoose had eaten up all their eggs."Alas! We got rid of one enemy only to find another,"said the crane to his wife.(1)Why did the crane think of a plan to deal with the snake?A.Because the snake always ate up their eggsB.Because the snake always fought against the cranesC.Because the crane wanted the mongoose to be his neighborD.Because the crane didn't like to share the same tree with others(2)What's the correct order of the following events?a.The crane made a trail of fish leading to his treeb.The mongoose climbed up the trees and ate up all the eggsc.The mongoose fought against the snake and the snake diedd.The crane dropped one fish at the mouth of the mongoose's holeA.a﹣d﹣b﹣cB.a﹣d﹣c﹣bC.d﹣a﹣c﹣bD.d﹣a﹣b﹣c(3)From the underlined sentence in the last paragraph,we can infer (推断)that.A.the crane would find another neighbor to get rid of the mongooseB.the cranes thought that their eggs would be safe from then onC.the cranes were very thankful because the mongoose killed their enemyD.the crane realized that his plan didn 't work and regretted what he had done(4)What can we learn from the story?A.Think well before you actB.Make your enemy your friendC.After bad luck comes good luckD.A good wife makes a good husband5.Amy is a biologist (生物学家)working at a marine (海洋的)park.These kinds of parks provide fun and education for tens of thousands of people each year.Amy takes care of many animals in the park,but she also does important research.As she observes the animals that she looks after,she learns more about their needs and behavior (行为).This information helps the animals in the park,but it can also be used to protect other members of the species(物种)in the wild.It's hard work to look after these animals.Their needs often change according to different hours of the day.So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long.Even though dolphins (海豚)spend much of their time underwater,they aremammals (哺乳动物).This means that they must come to the surface to take in air.Dolphins give birth to their young.They're not hatched from eggs.Just like all other mammals,mother dolphins must nurse,or feed milk to their babies.Amy and her team know this first﹣hand.One of their dolphins recently gave birth.A baby dolphin is not small,either.It was almost 1meter long the day it was born.A big dolphin usually eats about 4% of its body weitht in food every day.Amy knows that a mother dolphin that is nursing needs twice the food.So when the baby dolphin was born,Amy immediately doubled the mother's food every day.Choose the right answer according to the passage.(1)What does the underlined word "observes" in paragraph 2 mean?A.Nurses the young animals.B.Watches something carefully.C.Plays with something.D.Says something about.(2)Why is the information Amy learns very helpful?A.It helps to protect the animals in the park as well as those in the wild.B.It offers fun and education to tens of thousands of people.C.It helps dolphins to feed milk to their babies.D.It helps umderwater animals to come to the surface.(3)What does Amy need to make the right decision according to this passage?A.Good eyes and quick mind.B.Love and care for animals.C.Swimming skills and spirit of competition.D.Science knowledge and good number sense.(4)How much food does a 300 kg mother dolphin need every day?A.600 kg.B.12 kg.C.24 kg.D.52 kg.(5)This passage is mainly about.A.dolphin's life and food.B.Amy's job at a marine park.C.education in a park.D.protecting animals in the wild.6.There are a lot of interesting things in the world.If someone tells you that they can fish in the desert(沙漠),you must think they are joking(开玩笑).but this is true.In some places of Africa,people can fish in the desert.It must be very interesting to get some fish from the sand(沙漠).and in the woods of Asia there is a kind of bird.To our surprise,this kind of bird doesn't eat anything but iron(铁).I think the bird's teeth must be harder than the iron.We all know that snakes can eat mice(老鼠),but in a place of Africa a kind of big mouse can eat snakes.Isn't it interesting?Have you ever heard of "brush trees"?they are different from the trees we know.People can use their branches to brush teeth,and they are good for people's teeth.You must be very surprised to hear there interesting things.But they are all true.In fact,there are a lot of interesting things in our world.If you are careful enough,you can find them easily around you.(1)How many interesting things are there in the passage?A.2.B.3.C.4.D.5.(2)Where can people fish according to the passage?A.In the riverB.In the desertC.In the woodsD.On the mountain(3)What does the bird eat in the passage?A.InsectsB.IronC.MeatD.Bread7.Mr.Green makes a robot(机器人),but he can only say one sentence.That is "You are quite right."

2019年中考英语阅读理解真题汇编60篇(带详细答案)

2019年中考英语阅读理解真题汇编60篇(带详细答案)

2019年中考英语阅读理解真题汇编(带详细解析过程)(名师精讲解题方法与技巧+实战训练,建议下载练习)【考点分析】阅读理解旨在考查学生阅读、理解的能力。

近几年来,中考英语题中的阅读理解材料新颖,题材丰富,考查学生综合推断能力、根据语篇猜单词意思的能力的力度加大,考查学生关注细节的能力占很大部分。

所以学生往往要么没能正确理解语篇中某些句子的意思,在细节题上丢分,要么就是对语篇的整体把握不够,在综合题或者推断题方面丢分。

那么到底怎么做好阅读理解这一题型呢?一、解题思路(一)先读问题,弄清考查要点,以便能带着问题看文章,这样会心中有数,有的放矢。

(二)快速浏览全文,掌握全貌,注意发现与问题有关的信息,如果时间紧,至少要扫视一下起首段和尾段。

再把标题和文章内容结合起来想一想,这样全文大意便清楚了。

此时,不要忙于答题。

(三)细读原文,捕捉相关信息词,掌握短文细节内容。

这是解题的关键,应特别注意以下几点:1.抓住四个"W"和一个"H",就是边读边用铅笔做些标记,把What (事件),When (时间),Where(地点),Why(原因),How(经过)划出来。

抓住了四个“W”和一个“H”,就抓住了文章的全貌,一些直接性的问题便可解决。

2.抓住连接词及起关键作用的副词、代词、介词、插入语等。

因为这些词具有因果,让步,递进,转折,指代,列举及承上启下等各种连接上下文的特殊功能。

这对考生分清文章层次,辨明各种关系,了解人物心理,推断作者意图,进行逻辑推理等手段来分析难点,都具有举足轻重的作用。

3.注意领会文章的寓意。

4.根据题意,初选答案。

这一步须仔细审题,领会测试要求,确定解题方法。

对那些明显的,有把握的题可以断然确定,不必把其余三个答案再作推敲而浪费时间:有些略难的题,应再查阅短文(不是重读一遍),迅速找出依据,予以排除。

常用的解题方法有如下几种:①直接解题法。

即从原文中直接找出答案。

When I traveled across to the other side of the island, I could see the other islands, and I said to myself, “Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day.”So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree, and then began to make a long hole in it. It was hard work, but about six months later, I had a very fine canoe (独木舟). Next, I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was! Why didn't I think before I began work? Of course, the canoe was too heavy. I couldn't move it! I pulled and pushed and tried everything, but it didn't move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my sixth year I did make myself a smaller canoe, but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey, and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now, not my prison, and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later, I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there, and so I had two homes.My life was still busy from mo rning to night. There were always things to do or to make. I learnt to make new clothes for myself from the skins of dead animals. They looked very strange, it is true, but they kept me dry in the rain.I kept food and tools at both my houses, and also wild goats.

They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide that she loves you. She? Yes, she. It‟s true that male mosquito doesn‟t bite(咬) and only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn‟t like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosqui to bites you, just remember you are chosen. You‟re different from the others!If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. By the time the itching begins, and she has flown away.And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She just wants to find a place to have a good rest.

Think about all the water faucets (水龙头) in the toilet. Think about all the air conditioning in summer. Saving energy is a hot topic for such a big place!Many things at the mall use energy. Electric lights, infrared (红外感应) faucets andair-conditioners need electricity to work.One way to save energy is by keeping lights clean. More and more dust and dirt make the lights less bright. When malls keep lights clean, they can use fewer lights and keep the area just as bright. Using fewer lights means using less energy.You step up to the water faucet. The water starts to flow.

Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she‟d said again, “it‟s for Elizabeth. ”I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she didforgive(原谅) me.I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn‟t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only kn ew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.Now the present of her desk told, as she‟d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside —a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times.Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.1. The writer began to love her mother‟s de sk ______.A. after Mother diedB. before she became a writerC. when she was a childD. when Mother gave it to her2.

They were expecting a beautifulshow, better than a movie, but nothing they’d have to do anything about.Then one whale swam in the direction, directly towards land. It came in with thewaves, and when the waves receded. Its huge body on the sand. Suddenly, Jake and his family and all the others were no longer sightseers. They had to become rescuers. Afew people ran towards the animal. They pushed and tried to force the whale back intothe water, but it was no use.An animal rescue service team soon arrived in a truck with heavy lifting machinery,to help move the animal. Jack and his family couldn’t do much on the beach went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers. At least,Jake thought, they could help in some way.Back at the beach, they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see thatit was needed. It was getting dark. Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand. The rescuers would not give up. After trying manytimes they were finally able to lift the whale into the water. Everyone cheered when itheaded out to sea. It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a moment underthe sea.
