We first have to understand what leaves are and what they do.Leaves are the world's food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots(根)and take CO2 from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and CO2 into glucose (葡萄糖), a kind of sugar. Plants use it as food for energy and growing.A chemical called “chlorophyll” in the leaves gives plants their green color. As summer ends and autumncomes, the days get shorter and shorter, and trees “know” it's time to get ready for winter.During winter, there is not enough sunlight and water. Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. As the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, we begin to see yellow and orange leaves.The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in autumn. In some trees, like maples(枫树), sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn the glucose in the leaves into the red color. And we can enjoy the beautiful red leaves during autumn.1. What do plants use to turn water and CO2 into glucose?A. Air.B. Sugar.C. Sunlight.D. Wind.2. The underlined word “chlorophyll” probably means“________”．A. 叶绿素B. 脂肪C. 蛋白质D. 淀粉3.

During winter trees live on the food they store in summer.C. During winter we seldom see yellow colors in the leaves.D. Trees begin to stop making food in summer.Passage 12(2020原创)为什么会打哈欠？You just need to yawn(打哈欠). But why does it happen?The scientists do not know what a yawn is for. What we do know is that yawning happens to just about every kind of animals. It happens when an animal is tired. Yawning can also take place during the time of disagreement and stress. And that wide-open mouth can be contagious(感染的), especially in social animals such as humans and wolves. Watching someone yawn—even reading about yawns—can lead you to yawn yourself. Why? The research on humans tells us that people who are more empathetic(有同理心的) may be more likely to get contagious yawning.Is yawning contagious for dogs, too? In 2011, UK biologists tested for contagious yawning between people and dogs. Although 5 of the 19 dogs they studied did yawn in reply to an unfamiliar person's yawn, the researchers couldn't prove the yawns were contagious.In 2013, scientists at the University of Tokyo once again tested contagious yawning in dogs while controlling for stress. This time the researchers found that dogs were more likely to yawn in reply to a familiar person. They concluded that d ogs can “catch” a yawn from humans and that yawning is a social rather than a stressbasedbehavior.This finding suggests some dogs find human yawning stressful and others do not. More research is needed to find out whether yawning is contagious between humans and dogs or not.So we don't know the real reason of yawning. Try an experiment at home: Yawn and see if your pet yawns back.素材选自可可英语网1.

I didn't want to eat my vegetables. I didn't want to go to bed on time. I didn't want to work in the garden. I would much rather read books than help my mom and grandma with the boring housework. Being the youngest of three sons, I probably said “no” a lot more than I s hould have.As I grew up, I began to say “yes！” a lot more. I can remember making the bed and sweeping the floor.

2020 年中考英语阅读理解专题复习（名师详细剖析解题技巧+实战训练，建议下载保存）（绝对精品文档，价值很高，值得下载打印）一、解题技巧英语阅读理解是综合语言运用能力的一个重要方面，阅读理解题是占篇幅最长的、最耗时间的、生词最多的、单题分值最高的题型，当然，阅读理解也成为了学生们头疼的题型，下面就是初中英语阅读理解难点分析及高分秘诀，希望能助力同学们取得更好的成绩！初中英语阅读理解难点分析1. 单词不认识很多同学都有这种感觉，平时课本上的单词自己都掌握了，为什么遇到阅读还是有很多看不懂呢?这类问题被归结为单词量不够。
要解决这个问题，就是要多背单词，除此之外还要摸索规律。
第一、人名、地名没必要较真。
英语中有大量的词总是大写第一个字母的，而他们也大多属于专有名词，表示人名，地名，事件。
如Adela 、Manchester 、NATO 。
遇到这类词完全可以视若罔闻。
2. 前缀、后缀有规律英语中有些词通过前面或者后面加一些字母，就会变成另一个词。
如，regular-- irregular ，kind--kindness ，前者通过加-ir 变成起否定形式，后者通过在后面加-ness，变成了名词。
归纳起来，一般说前缀变词义（如肯否定），后缀变词性。
只要记住这个原则，平时在学习时有意识地去检验，积累各种加前后缀的形式，就不至于稍加变化就不认识了。
3. 有的词是需要摸索的在阅读题中，有的词是在文章中有提示的，因为英语写作有个潜在的规则，词语若非不得已，不要重复。
秉承这个原则，我们可以在文章的结构平行处找线索。
或是反义词，或是近义词，根据文章的具体情况，同学们不难做出一个比较有针对性的选择。
4. 考纲单词必须熟记。
大纲要求的单词、平时做题总是遇到的单词，生活中会经常遇到的单词，这些词是同学们发挥才智，施展所有做题技巧的基础。
没有特别好的方法，就是有恒心一直背：把单词表上的词分类，单独把不会的列出来，分批背，平时总是遇到又不认识的，用一本笔记本把他们都记下来，天天反复天天背。

If you are a friend of the family, you may drop in for tea without an invitation or telling that you are coming. Very often it is not served at a table. The members of the family and visitors take tea in the sitting-room. Each person has a cup and saucer （托盘）, a spoon and a small plate for bread-and-butter and cake. By the way, do not help yourself to cake first; bread-and-butter first, then cake if there is any. Another piece of advice: Do not put more than one piece of bread or cake on your plate at the same time.（）1. Afternoon tea is usually served with ______.A. tea onlyB. tea and some foodC. tea, dessert and meatD. cake and bread（）2.

Help yourself to bread-and-butter before cake if there is any.Passage 2Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home. You should not be upset（不安的）if your English friends don’t invite you home. It doesn’t mean they don’t like you.Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p.m. and end at about 11. Ask your hosts what time you should arrive. It’s polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift.Usually the evening starts with drinks and snacks. If you want to be very polite, say how much you like the room, or the pictures on the wall. But remember－it’s not polite to ask how much things cost.In many families, the husband sits at one of the table and the wife sits at the other end. They eat with their guests.You’ll probably start the meal with soup or something small, then you’ll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then dessert followed by coffee. It’s polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want it.Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “thank you”letter. British and American people like to say “thank you, thank, thank you”all the time!( )1. If your English friend doesn’t invite you to dinner at home, it doesn’t mean he or she ______.A. doesn’t like youB. likes youC. can’t afford to do soD. is too busy( )2.

Chinese history says thatthe Chinese had chopsticks as far as the Xia Dynasty(朝代)(about 4, 00 years ago). In the Spring and Autumn Period(时期) copper and iron chopsticks appeared. With the Han Dynasty lacquered(上漆) chopsticks came, followed by gold and silver chopsticks still later. Today we have chopsticks made of plastics. The most expensive are made of part of tusks of elephants and hard green stone.Chopsticks tell Chinese tradition in their way. In ancient (古代的) times the rich used hard green stone or gold chop-sticks to show their wealth(富有). In history many kings used silver chopsticks to take their food to see if it was poisonous(有毒的). It was said that if it was, the silver chopsticks would turn colour. Chopsticks are traditionally given to a daughter when she marries to show that they should have a son very soon, for “Chopsticks”in Chinese is pronounced like “quick a son”!Tianzhu chopsticks from Hangzhou, wooden chopsticks from Shanyang of Shanxi Province, and Beijing’s chopsticks are well-known.Many westerners, businessmen, tourists put aside(一边) their knives and forks in favour(爱好) of chopsticks in China. Chopsticks appeared in the old Chinese story: an old man teaches his sons a lesson by showing how he could easily break a single chopstick but not a number of them. In China, chopsticks are connected with good luck. So on the country’s New Year’s Eve many families will lay out new chopsticks at dinners as a way of making requests for luck.1. Chopsticks have their beginnings in .A. ChinaB. many Asian countriesC. African countriesD. all over the world2. Copper and iron chopsticks appeared in .A. the Xia DynastyB. the Spring and Autumn PeriodC. the Han DynastyD. the Tang Dynasty3. A. The history of chopsticks can tell us .A. something about Chinese foodB. nothing but how many kinds of chopsticks are used in China.C. about the lives of Chinese kingsD. much about Chinese way of life in the past4. Many Westerners in China like to use .A. chopsticksB. their knivesC. their forksD. chopsticks and knives and forks at the same time5. Chinese use chopsticks .A. to lift food to the mouth onlyB. to teach others a lesson onlyC. in many other ways besides taking foodD. in many other ways except taking foodPassage 4Chinese noodles have a long history. They were first mentioned in the Eastern Han Dynasty (朝代)，over 1，900 years ago. At that time，noodles were called “cakes”.They were “cakes”that were boiled in water.From the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty，there were written records about noodles.“Mian”became the name of noodles in the Song Dynasty. Before that，there was no specific name for this kind of food.There are all kinds of noodles，such as cold noodles，warm noodles，and fried noodles. There are also all kinds of noodle-making methods (方法)，such as brushing，pressing，rolling and pulling.China is where all noodles originated (起源)，including the noodles，such as spaghetti (意大利面条)，that we think came from other countries. In the Yuan Dynasty，Marco Polo came to China. He learned to make noodles，and then taught the method when he went back to his country. In 1912，the traditional Chinese method of noodle-making was brought to Japan. Japanese noodles were first called “Dragon Noodles”，meaning food eaten by the Chinese—the descendants (后代) of the Dragon.Among all Chinese noodles，the most special type may be Yi Noodles (伊府面).They were created by a chef in the Qing Dynasty. Yi Noodles are made in both southern and northern China，but Fujian and Jiangxi Provinces are most famous for making Yi Noodles. Yi Noodles can be served dry or with soup. Since Yi Noodles are similar to modern instant noodles (方便面)，they are considered to be the father of modern instant noodles.( )1.“Mian”became the name of noodles in the ________ Dynasty.A. Eastern HanB. TangC. SongD. Yuan( )2.Which of the following is TRUE?A. There are only two kinds of methods of noodle-making.B. Marco Polo came to China in the Yuan Dynasty.C.

Chinese noodles came from ItalyD. it is believed that the Chinese are descendants of the Dragon( )4.Yi Noodles ________.A. are not specialB. were created by a person in the Yuan DynastyC. are similar to modem instant noodlesD. are only made and eaten in the south of China( )5.The best title for this passage would be “________”.A. The Culture of Chinese NoodlesB. The Legend of Instant NoodlesC. The Methods of Noodle-makingD. The History of Yi NoodlesPassage 5In Britain you are allowed to drive a car when you are seventeen. You have to get a special two-year driving license before you can start. When you are learning, someone with a full license always has to be in the car with you because you aren’t allowed to drive the car on the road alone. You don’t have to go to a driving school –--- a friend can teach you. The person with you isn’t allowed to take the money for the lesson unless he’s got a teacher’s license.Before you are allowed to have a full license, you have to take a driving test. You can take a test in your own car, but it has to be fit for the road. In the test you have to drive round for about half an hour and then answer a few questions. If you don’t pass the test, you are allowed to take it again a few weeks later if you want to. In 1970 a woman passed her fortieth test after 212 driving lessons. When you’ve passed your test, you don’t have to take it again, and you are allowed to go on driving as long as you like. Britain’s oldest driver was a man who drove in 1974 at the age of 100.Before 1904 everyone was allowed to drive, even children. Then from 1904 car drivers had to have a license. But they didn’t have to take a test until 1935. On the early days of car driving, before 1878, cars weren’t allowed to go faster than four miles an hour, and someone had to lead the car with a red flag.( )1. Which of the following is not necessary for a young man who wants to drive a car alone?A. He should reach the age of 17. 1B. He should get a special two-year driving license.C.

But brother and sister, Sahar and Bobby Green, became young millionaires(百万富翁) when they opened a chain of American-style(美国风味的) coffee shops in the U.K.Having the idea: It started when Sahar took a weekend trip to New York to visit her brother Bobby. One evening, in a Thai restaurant, Sahar told Bobby how much she wished she could buy American-style coffee in London. Bobby suggested they start their own coffee shop. Sahar fell in love with the idea.Doing the Research: Back in London, she spent a whole day on the London subway, getting off the train at different stations to taste the coffee. “It was terrible, and I knew there was a gap in the market.”In November 1995, they opened their first Coffee Republic shop in central London.Making it work: The first year was very difficult. There were problems finding and keeping staff, and British people were not used to the names of American coffees, like latte and macchiato. But being successful was their dream and they were not going to give up. Today, there are over 100 Coffee Republic shops all over the country and the company has revenues(收入) of ￡30 million a year.Advice for others: Sahar has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It! She hopes it will help other young people to start their own businesses.

Weekly film and concert schedules will be put up each Wednesday outside of the student club.In the summer holidays. buses going to the town centre will leave the gate every hour on the half hour during the day. The dining room will serve three meals a day from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm during the week and two meals from noon to 7:00 pm on weekends.

Lifts travel up and down all day long.Sometimes a worker stands in the lift. He or she operates it up and down. In modern lifts there is no worker. The people walk in. They know what floor they want. They push a button and the lift goes to that floor. It is all very fast and easy.Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it has fifty or more. Who can walk up all the stairs? Maybe people can climb them one time. Can someone climb thirty floors to anoffice every day? Can small children walk up to their room on the twenty-fourth floor? Can their mother and father carry food up all those stairs? Of course not.We can have high buildings because we have lifts.

During the festival there are all kinds of activities，but the most exciting part is the tomato fight. It takes place at the end of long celebration. You are encouraged to throw tomatoes in the fight. There're many stories about how the festival began. One of the stories goes that during the 1940's，some friends started a tomato fight，while another story is about a local band. Anyway，everyone in Bunol seems to have a different story. Before the tomato fight，there are parades，musical bands，street parties and so on.On the day of the fight，shopkeepers cover their windows and doors in order to keep away from the tomato fight. At the same time，thousands of tourists and local people come to the town square together. Then large trucks full oftomatoes arrive. From the back of the large trucks，a great town band start to throw tomatoes at others. Then the crowds fight back，throwing the tomatoes at anything and anyone. Soon the streets are in the sea of red tomato juice.Everyone is supposed to obey a small number of rules: You must squash(压烂) the tomato before throwing it and you are allowed to throw nothing but tomatoes.It is usually over in less than half an hour.

They are part of their national identity (特性), as well as having fish and chips and complaining about the weather. Recently I read online that they said “sorry”up to eight times a day.After some research I have not been able to find any specific reasons why they are like this. I suppose, for centuries, manners, including how they behave at table and talk to other people have been one of the differences between the lower and upper classes and those manners show their social classes. Britain has traditionally been a quite conservative (保守的) country. There are many articles suggesting that their seemingly polite attitude of always saying “please”and “thank you”is quite false because it is impossible for a person to always feel that he or she wants tothank someone or say “please”.Maybe it is for this reason that people are going one of two ways:they are too polite and hold back their feelings or they are not polite at all and express their true feelings directly. Some British people are tired of pretending that they are always happy and having to please others. But sometimes because they feel they have to be polite, they are prevented from saying what they truly think.( ) 1. What don't the British people often do?A. Eat fish and chips.B. Have no quite good manners.C. Be polite to others.D. Talk about the weather.( ) 2. What do the British people say up to eight times every day?A. Hello.B. Thank you.C. I don't know.D. Sorry.( )3. What does the writer think are the reasons why the British people are so polite?①The upper classes should have good manners.②They have learned much about politeness at school.③They like to hold back their true feelings.④They are not honest at all.A. ①②B. ③④C. ①③D. ②④( ) 4. What does the underlined word “pretending”mean in Chinese?A. 打算B. 假装C. 想象D. 体验( ) 5. What is the best title of this passage?A. British people are too politeB. British people should not be so politeC. How to learn the British mannersD. It's time to change our mannersPassage 11Compared with other European countries，lifestyle in Italy is slower and more relaxing in its own way. Italians love to chat over a cup of coffee，go out for a walk in the middle of the day，and enjoy long lunches and dinners.The family is important to Italians. They can't think of spending a day without talking about their parents and children，or a weekend without a family lunch or dinner. Italians living outside their country miss their family a lot.Italians like simple life. Their days start and end with a cup of coffee. A cup of coffee after every meal is a must. Italians love to spend time over a hot cup of coffee and even hotter conversation with friends. Topics are usually about family，football and politics(政治).Sport is a very important part in the lives of many Italians. Football is their favorite sport.

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。

最新中考英语阅读理解题汇总（共20篇附答案）Passage 1Nowadays, many teens are badly addicted to using phones.It probably won’t surprise you that teens are texting more than ever before.Instead of sleeping, Kenny Alarcon, 16, often texts with his friends through the night.Frances Garcia, a high school senior, sends and receives about 1000 texts each day.Both Frances and Kenny wake up several times during the night to text.Kenny even sleeps with his phone under his pillow.Dr.Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, says that it’s common for teens to be interrupted by texts while sleeping.“If they often lose sleep,”Dr.Dowdell says, “teens may become angry, or depressed.A lack of sleep can lead to weight gain and even obesity because many people turn to junk food for quick energy when they are tired.”Some experts are worried about how texting is affecting teenagers’lives.One concern is that students might not learn correct grammar and spelling if most of the writing they do is made up of text messages.Some people also worry that teens don’t spend enough time talking with othersface-to-face, which could be hurting their relationships with friends and family.Moreover, all that texting takes away hours that could be spent studying, exercising, taking up a hobby, or just relaxing.According to Dr.Dowdell, teens need to learn that they can and should turn off their phones sometimes.She had Kenny and Frances do an experiment.These were the rules: No phone for 48 hours.No computer or Internet either, unless it was for schoolwork.After 48 phone-free hours, Kenny and Frances were interviewed.“Wow, it was pure torture(折磨),”Kenny joked.Kenny missed his friends, and he was sad at times.But he also felt relief from the constant texting.He spent time reading books and talking with his family, which he really enjoyed.Frances had an even happier result.“I loved it!”she said, “I was going to the gym and hanging out with friends and playing basketball.I had a wonderful experience.”Frances decided to continue the experiment for a while.“I think I’ll be so much smarter and healthier,”she explained, “everybody in the world should try it.”1.If teens keep waking up to text while sleeping, they may _____.A.get overweightB.become happierC.disturb their parentsD.feel more relaxed2.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Mistakes in teens’text writing.B.Time wasted on meaningless texting.C.Worries about how texting affects teens.D.Encouragement to teens’talking face-to-face.3.The writer mentions the experiment on Frances and Kenny to _____.A.advise people what to do without phonesB.show teens can live well without phonesC.explain phones are important in teens’livesD.introduce how they make good use of phones【主旨大意】本文是一篇议论文, 文中主要谈到了手机对青少年的不良影响, 并通过一个实验表明, 离开手机, 青少年也能过得很好。
