九年级中考英语阅读理解专练第(一)篇Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey(土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends .Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more?1.

Take famous poet Li Bai for example. His family nam e, which came from his father’s name, was Li. His given name was Bai, and his courtesy name was Taibai.People used their given names when they were among family members. But in social life, they called each other by their courtesy names to show respect. This was mostly done among people of similar age. If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name.Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married.One’s courtesy name often had something to do with one’s given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean “carriage (马车)”. Zhuge Liang’s given name was Liang, which means “bright”. His courtesy name was Kongming, which means “very bright”.1. How many parts are there in people’s names in ancient China?A. three.B. four.C. five.D. six.2.

Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. “I’m also disabled and I want to do something for them with my music,” said Ma.Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the “colorful” music through sound and emotion.Ma’s mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.“After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises,” said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, “As I’ve been practicing so long, it’s hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practicing.”In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the CentralConservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream, though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. “All my hard work has paid off.

Ma’s story tells us __________.A. old habits die hardB. there is no place like homeC. practice makes perfectD. a good friend is like a mirror第(四)篇We know many musical instruments well, such as pianos, violins, drums and so on. What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and itbecame quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying (伴奏) instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally (口头地), there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians (历史学者) usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).1.

Little did he know that he would not only compete for his country but also take home gold. With the great excitement of winning an Olympic gold medal still fresh in his mind, Su wrote a letter to the president, telling him how lucky he felt to have made his dream come true.Su still remembers what Xi wrote in the reply, “The new era is the time for young people to realize their dreams.”“I have always kept those words in my mind,” Su said.“When I made up my mind to be a professional(职业的) snowboarder, I know there is a big gap between my performance(表现) and that of the top sportsmen in the world. But I have been working hard to realize my dream. Now my story shows the fact that hard work will pay off.” Su said.Su believes the sky is the limit. “Find the thing you love, believe in yourself and do your very best.

Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, and usually far way from cities. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.The National Parks in England are called “England’s Breathing Spaces” because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems too. First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.How can people help? All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.1.According to paragraph 1, what can we learn about the National Parks?A.There are only several national parks in the worldB.

They are hard-working and professional in their work, and use sign language to communicate with each other from time to time.Bach’s Bakery lies in Changsha City, Hunan Province. It is run by a German couple, Uwe Brutzer and his wife Dorothee Brutzer, who started it up ten years ago with the purpose of creating more jobs for those disabled in the neighborhood. So far, Bach’s Bakery has trained around 30 hearing disabled people. While some skilled workers found jobs in other bakeries and hotels and have been able to live on their own, several of them have stayed to work atthe bakery after they completed the training.The Brutzers’ work has won the support of many people in China. With the spread of news about the bakery, many Internet users learned about Bach’s Bakery and its inspiring story. As a result, many local people in Changsha as well as visitors from other parts of the country come to buy their products, Uwe said that public attention has encouraged them a lot and helped grow the bakery’s business, resulting in workers getting higher pay. However, what he values more is that, through media (媒体) reports, more people have come to understand that disabled people can work as well as other people when they are given chances.Now, as they are preparing to return to Germany, they have found a German couple teaching in China as the new managers, and handed over the bakery to a public welfare (福利) organization.

What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Silent BakeryB. A Special WishC. The Success of the DisabledD. The Rules of Bach’s Bakery第(九)篇Scientists are looking for ways that we can effectively use the light and heat from the sun. One idea that has caught their imagination is solar roads. They are expected to produce clean and renewable energy.With solar panels on the surfaces, solar roads cost more than traditional roads. However, besides the functions of traditional roods, they have the panels to receive sunlight and change it into the energy to supply power to homes, factories and street lighting. There are four layers in a solar panel:•Base layer: It is made of insulation material and forms a good grip with the road below this layer.•Middle layer: This is the most important layer. It holds all kinds of power lines connecting all the solar parts in the panel, like LED lights and the heating system.•Top layer: This layer is super-strong glass. It allows the panel to hold the weight of the heaviest vehicles.•Capping: This is the topmost layer used to offer extra protection to the solar parts in the panel. The layer must be rough enough to provide the traction for the safety of vehicles.With the smart design, solar roads can successfully charge the vehicles on them. And the roads have inbuilt LED lights to replace the traditional rood signs and lines, which are usually painted and harmful to humans. What’s more, the heating systems in the solar roads can take care of the snow and ice on the roads for drivers.Test solar roads have been built in several countries (France, China, USA, etc.) since 2014. The first word solar road project, Metrics of Watt Way in France, was set up by a French company called Construction Colas. It was an example of low effectiveness. In the first year, it had been expected to produce around 767 kWh of energy a day, but it only produced 409 kWh. Even so, the production could increase with design improvements. Of course, more time is needed before this technology is put into use.Solar roads may not be widely used in the near future, but they are indeed great for an environment-friendly and energy-saving world.1. Solar roads ________.A. offer power to homesB. get energy from factoriesC. keep the sunlight awayD. cost less than traditional roods2. Which of the following about the layers of a solar panel is TRUE according to the passage?A. The base layer is the most important layer.B. There are many power lines in the middle layer.C. The top layer lies on the top of the solar panel.D. The capping should be smooth enough for drivers.3. The first world solar road project ________.A. was set up in China in 2014B. showed high effectiveness as expectedC. was started by a US companyD. could get better with design improvements4. What is the best title for the passage?A. Solar Roads: A Widely Used InventionB. Solar Roads: A Safety Guard for DriversC. Solar Roads: A New Idea for Clean EnergyD. Solar Roads: A Way to Produce LED Lights5. Which part of newspaper may you read this passage?A. HistoryB. FashionC. SportD. Environment第(十)篇Steven Spielberg is the world’s most famous director.

人教版九上英语阅读理解10篇(含答案)
九年级上册阅读理解10篇【一】Since the start of COVID-19, many people have been stuck(困住的) indoors.Online classes and working from home mean sitting around a lot.We already know that if we don’t move much, we get fatter, we get heart problems and maybe we get diabetes(糖尿病). But new studies have shown that it could be bad for our mind, too.A study of 937 American adults during COVID-19 found that about one-third of them sat around for more than 10 hours per day. It reported that people who sat for too long often showed more symptoms of depression(抑郁的症状).Another study studied children aged 12, 14 and 16. It found that the longer they sat, the higher depression scores they would get by age 18. According to the study, if eighteen-year-old children sat too often, they had depression scores 28 percent higher than those who were more active.Scientists are not sure yet about the connection between too much sitting and depression. But an expert named Mats Hallgren said, “sitting for too long can slow blood flow(流动) in the body including blood flow to the brain. It might also influence the growth of neurons(神经细胞) in the brain. And couch potatoes might do other unhealthy things while sitting on the sofa, such as eating on junk food. All these may lead to depression.”Is there any good news? It’s easy to deal with the problem. Aaron Kandola from University College London, UK, said “all kinds” of movement might help, even light activity.“It is great to exercise and play sports,” said Kandola. “But anything you can do to avoid sitting for too long will help with mood(情绪), stress and thinking clearly.” The key message is just to move more, more often.()1. What will probably happen if we don’t move much?A. We will become heavier.B. We will be healthier.C. We will feel relaxed.()2. According to the study, _______ American adults sat around for more than 10 hours a day during COVID-19.A. about 200B. About 300C. About 500()3. What might “couch potatoes”mean in paragraph 5?A. 沙发上的土豆B. 血液流动迅速的人C. 坐在沙发上懒得动的人()4. What can we learn from the passage?A.Sitting for too long is good for teenagers’health.B.More exercise might make people happy and think clearly.C.C. It’s difficult to solve the problems caused by sitting for too long.()5. What’s the purpose(目的) of the text?A. To encourage people to move more often.B. To introduce the symptoms of depression.C. To explain the reason why people sit too often.“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade(柠檬汁).” This is a common saying in English and it encourages positive attitude(积极的态度). Lemons tastes very sour. However, by adding water and sugar to them, you will be able to enjoy a delicious drink.Because of COVID-19, life has given you a lot of lemons lately. It’s autumn time. Nature is fascinating and the weather is cool. You should be outside playing. But if you do that these days, you will probably become ill. You have no choice but to stay indoors. So, what should you do? Just sit there and eat lemons, or learn how to make lemonade?Home quarantine(居家隔离) is giving people the chance to do things that they didn’t have time to do before, such as reading, learning to cook, taking up their hobbies and spending more time with families. For younger people, the home quarantine could also be a chance to learn an important life lesson directly: While life can be difficult at times, it can still be enjoyed if you have the right attitude.There are some things you can do to keep a positive attitude. First, stay healthy. Don’t stay up late or sleep too long. And do some exercise every day. Second, make a time plan for study and hobbies, or just some quiet time for yourself. Third, care about others. Your parents may have much stress these days, so don’t make their lives any more difficult by, for example, arguing with them.The pandemic(疫情) will finally end, but you will always remember it as a big event in your life. Hopefully, it will make you and all of China’s younger people stronger and more positive so that you will forever be known as the “lemonade” generation(一代), and not the “sour” one.()1. How does the writer start the text?A. By giving some suggestions.B.By telling his experience.C. By explaining a saying.()2. In the writer’s eyes, the underlined word “lemons”in paragraph 2 means _______.A. fruitsB. troublesC. tricks()3.

Like father, like son.B. An apple a day keeps a doctor away.C. Life is about learning to dance in the rain.The two boys, Tom and Huck, hiding upstairs(楼上), were very frightened(惊吓的) because they worried about being found by Injun Joe and his friend.

But the stairs(楼梯) broke when Injun Joe stood on them! So the two men left the house and went towards the river. Tom went home as quickly as he could.The next day, the two boys remembered the “Number two”, thinking this must be the number of the room in the hotel. They got all the keys they could find anywhere.

This is because of pigments(色素). And they reflect light and make what the eye sees as colors. So, when we feel excited or angry, our heart can send more blood to the face and the pigments in the skin become red. This is why we have the expression that someone “sees red” when they are angry.Plants also have pigments. Color is important for them to live on. The bright colors of flowers catch the attention of insects. And then they carry their pollen(花粉) from one flower to another. Bees(蜜蜂) can see colors humans cannot, and they follow these to the inside of the flower. Without bees visiting flowers in this way, many plants would die out.Animals also use colors for their own need. They protect themselves with different colors so that they won’t be seen by predators. Take the hare (a type of wild rabbit) for example. It changes colors with seasons for this reason. During summer it is a brown color, and in winter it is white so that it can hide in the snow. However, some animals use colors as a warning to make predators stay away. Bright colors such as yellow and red are often used in this way. Nature, however, is very clever, and predators also use colors to attract(吸引) the animals they feed on.So, we can see that there may be many different reasons and uses for colors in the natural world. Some uses of color in nature remain unknown, but one thing is for sure. Color not only makes our planet beautiful but it is also necessary for our planet to live on.()1. Paragraph 2 mainly tells us that _______ cause(s) human skin to change color.A. healthB. pigmentsC. sunshine()2. Flowers use _______ to attract bees, and bees carry _______ from one flower to another to make them live on.A. colors; leavesB. leaves; colorC. colors; pollen()3. The underlined word “predators”in Paragraph 4 means _______ in Chinese.A. 捕食者B. 受害者C. 藏匿者()4. Which is WRONG about animals’using color for their own need?A. They protect themselves from predators.B. They use colors to attract predators.C. They warn predators to stay away.()5. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To describe animals’ways of life.B. To encourage us to study color in nature.C. To introduce the uses of colors for life on earth.【五】Finland lies in the northern part of Europe. It is not only the hometown of Santa Claus, but also rich ground for heavy metal (金属) music. For every 100,000 people, there are 70 metal bands, according to Medium. Every year, thousands of “metalheads” get together at Finland’s many metal festivals, especially during summer. In 2019, Finland held its first Heavy Metal Knitting (编织) Competition. Twelve groups from eight countries took part in it. Many music lovers don’t like heavy metal music because of its rudeness and loudness. But why does this form of music become so popular in Finland?Where you live makes you who you are. The cold and sometimes awful weather make the Finnish people become more and more interested in this heavier form of rock. “When someone is in the cold and dark environment for long periods of time, it is only natural that some form of depression (忧郁) will start to set in,” the website A Metal State Of Mind reported. “How do many Finns deal with this depression, and than metal.”According to Medium, most Finnish people are emotionally restrained (情感克制的). The Finns do not easily express their feelings when they talk. Whatever feelings — soft or hard — they feel, they keep them inside. For them, emotional introversion (内向性) is a form of behavior in Finland.“I feel that the introversion also has to do with the fact that we don’t want to tell personal secrets to others. It has not been socially acceptable to show great feelings, such as anger or sadness.” One has to appear ‘strong’ at all costs, “Ida-Katharina Kiljander, one of the lead singers of a metal band Mournful Lines, told Medium. “It is difficult to discuss our feelings, but still we need a way to deal with these anger or sadness.”()1. How many heavy metal music bands took part in the Heavy Metal Knitting Competition in 2019?A. Seventy.B. Twelve.C. Eight.()2. What does the underlined sentence Where you live makes you who you are. in paragraph 2 mean?A.一方水土养育一方人。

九年级上册英语期末复习---阅读理解专练AWe have always been interested in the moon. 2000 years ago people already knew it moved around the earth and where it would be in the sky at different times of the year. At that time, everything about the moon was learned by watching it carefully in the sky.When scientists could use telescopes to study the moon more closely, their ideas began to change. They could see the moon was made of rocks. Most scientists thought moon rocks would be different from those on Earth. This was because they believed the moon had once been a planet that had been caught in the earth’s gravity (引力) millions of years earlier.In 1969 moon rocks were finally brought to the earth and studied. Much to their surprise, scientists found that, except for water, the moon and the earth were made of the same things. Once again new ideas were needed for this new information.After years of study, most scientists now think that the moon was once part of Earth. They believe very early in its history, maybe 4 million years ago, something about the size of Mars hit Earth. This sent billions of rocks into space around our planet. These rocks slowly joined together and after many years became the moon.However, in the future, even though our ideas about the moon may change again, we will still be interested in it.()1.

However, it may become a thing of the past.China's educational and health authorities (当局) have announced to close convenience stores in all schools across the country. The regulation (规定) requires that schools should record each meal and solve any food problem as soon as possible. It also requires schools to try to make sure students follow a healthy diet. Parents can also eat with students at school and give suggestions to the school on food safety and nutrition.The regulation caused heated discussions. Many students were sad. They thought that without convenience stores, their school life will be less interesting. However, many parents expressed support for the regulation. The father of a junior school student said that cheap, low-quality snacks sold at these stores were bad for children's health. A teacher said that students ran to shops to buy snacks as soon as a class was over, which influenced the normal teaching order.And in fact many foreign countries have their own ways to make students eat healthily. For example, many parents in Australia volunteer in schools. They do their best to see that their children are served nutritious food. In Japan, there is food and nutrition education. Students eat lunch in their classrooms, where they learn about diet and nutrition, and Japanese food culture. They also take turns serving meals to each other, cleaning up, and recycling. This helps children get "a sense of thankfulness "and "appreciate (尊重) foods and social manners".

Chinese Fancy KnotsChinese Fancy KnotChinese fancy knots, also called Chinese knots, refer to the traditional decorative knots in Chinese culture. They began as a form of traditional art in the Tang and Song Dynasties in China, and became popular in the Ming Dynasty. Long ago, they found their way to Japan and other Southeast Asian countries, and were well received there. Now they are taken as one of the most classic symbols (标志) of Chinese culture.As for th e name itself, it is surely meaningful. The Chinese word for “knot”, jie, means “connection”. It is related to lots of cultural ideas – marriage, brotherhood, reunion, etc. Meanwhile, the pronunciation of the Chinese word jie is very close to that of ji, “good luck”. As a result, Chinese knots perfectly serve as a way to express people’s strong wishes for good things like joy, love and good luck.Besides, the knots, widely existing in the everyday life of the Chinese culture, come in different sizes. Small ones are connected to jewellery (珠宝), clothes,gift-packages and furniture in order to attract people’s attention, while large ones are used to decorate a living room or study. Whether large or small, there are over a dozen basic knot patterns ( 图案), named according to their shapes, usages or origins. For example, Double Coin Knots are called shuangqian Jie because they are in the shape oftwo ancient Chinese coins, meaning “good things come in pairs”. However, almost all the main styles of Chinese fancy knots are made up of two exactly similar parts, and the patterns on the front and the back sides are also similar in every detail.In addition, Chinese knots are famous for their bright colours. Each of the Chinese knots is made of a single string of cotton, silk, gold or silver. But the colours of the strings are rich and have different traditional cultural meanings. Among the most commonly used base colours, red means good luck and happiness, green means health, and yellow, which was once known as a empe ror’s colour, may means wealth and honour.In brief, the famous Chinese fancy knots fully reflect (反映) the depth of Chinese culture. These brightly coloured knots of different patterns, with their endless chains of knots, mean that life on earth will continue forever.34.

九年级英语阅读理解专题训练20篇第1 篇For several years, Americans have enjoyed teleshopping—watching TV and buying things by phone. Now teleshopping is starting in Europe. In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things. Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example, the biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in fifteen European countries, and in one year it made one hundred million dollars. In France there are two teleshopping channels, and the French spend about twenty million dollars a year to buy things through those channels.In Germany, until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for one hour every day. Then the government allowed more teleshopping. Other channels can open for telebusiness, including the largest American teleshopping company and a twenty-four-hour teleshopping company. German businessmen are hoping this new teleshopping will help sell more things.Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason. But at the same time, other Europeans do not like this way of shopping. They call teleshopping “Junk on the Air”. Many Europeans usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important for them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.( ) 1. Teleshopping is ___________ in Europe.A.not popularB. growingC.not possibleD. cheap( ) 2.

The best title of this passage is _________.A. American TeleshoppingB. Teleshopping CompaniesC. Teleshopping in EuropeD. Teleshopping-Junk on the Air答案: BACDC第2 篇What do you think of a woman scientist? Perhaps you imagine a pair of thick glasses and messy hair forehead.

In the book, the Monkey King changes into other animals. She wondered what it would be like to change herself. Luckily, Yan now lives in that world every day, searching how proteins (蛋白质) work at the level of atoms (原子). “It was almost certain that I would become a structural biologist,” She said in an interview with Nature.As she realizes her own dreams, Yan tries to encourage more women to work for science.

The number of penguins have decreased(减少) by 30% since 1987.Penguins are black and white birds that live in the southern part of the world. They are common in South America,New Zealand,Australia and South Africa. Mary live near cold waters. But some live near warm waters in Galapagos Islands. Penguins cannot fly,but they are fine swimmers. Penguins eat fish and krill(磷虾).The warming of the earth is the decrease in penguin populations. The heating of the air has caused ocean waters to become warmer. Higher water temperatures have reduced the supply of fish and krill. Some years later these birds are completely unable to reproduce(繁殖). Besides,many adult penguins die of hunger.Widespread(广泛的) fishing,exploration for oil and oil leaks(漏) also make penguins be in danger. Poisonous organisms(生物) in ocean water are another danger. Penguins also have their enemies,including wild dogs,sharks,seals and sea lions.News about penguins is not all bad,however. Several years ago,oil leaking from a ship hurt 40% of the penguins in South Africa. The penguins became covered with oil. But thousands of people helped clean and treat the birds well. Then they returned the penguins to the wild. Now these South African penguins are reproducing in higher numbers than before the oil leaking. 根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

九年级上学期英语期末复习——阅读理解专练一、阅读理解AI went to my first music festival-We Love Green. It was held over a weekend in a park in Paris. Like most music festivals, it had wonderful singers and music. However, there was something special about this one. You see, this was a green festival!From the food to the stalls (摊位), everything was as environmentally friendly as possible. The festival was powered by solar energy (由太阳能供电). There were specially labeled bins (贴有标签的垃圾桶) so that the waste could be used again after the festival. Free fresh water was provided for everyone so that guests didn’t need to buy drinks in plastic (塑料的) bottes. There were many stalls for everyone, from little children to the old.This seems like such a great idea, to make something very fun and not cause great pollution to the environment. I have discovered that there are more events similar to this across the world! I really hope that there will be more events like We Love Green. These environmentally friendly practices tell people being green doesn’t mean being boring. It can be quite fun. As a result, more people may be encouraged to consider the role they play in the environmental protection.( )1.What did the writer do recently in Paris?A.He ran a food stall.B.He traveled across the city.C.He hold an activity.D.He went to a music festival.( )2.Why did We Love Green provide fresh water for free?A.To help people save money.B.To encourage healthy eating.C.To help reduce plastic waste.D.To show the importance of water.( )3.During the festival, the writer _______.A.enjoyed healthy food and drinks B.encouraged people to save waterC.found some funny music D.told people to protect our environment( )4.What does the writer think of We Love Green?A.Noisy and boring.B.Interesting but noisy.C.Environmentally friendly but noisy.D.Interesting and environmentally friendly.( )5.What’s the best title of the passage?A.A Special Park in Paris B.A Great Green ExperienceC.Advice on how to Be Green D.Environmental Protection PracticesBCuriosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. Children are famous for wanting answers to thousands of questions. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. But curiosity also provides many advantages.Learning is the easiest if you have a desire for knowledge. Curiosity can create that desire when you have a question you want an answer to. Many of history’s greatest discoveries were made by curious people. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world and have useful technology to help them.Even if you don’t plan to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the joy of learning, classes will become more fun. And you’ll be better because you will fully take part in the process of learning. Even if you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you get more information and then a better worker.What do you do if you’re not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. If you act like you’re curious, you’ll quickly start to actually feel curious. Often, the more you learn about a topic, the more interesting it becomes.As you learn about a topic, collect as much information as possible. Read different kinds of books, listen to talks and ask questions. Don’t always get your information from the same source. Instead, learn to appreciate (欣赏) facts that different people know and the different opinions that they express. Ask a lot of questions. Remember, everyone knows something that you don’t. Find out what that is and ask about it. This lets you learn something and makes the other person happy by letting them show off their knowledge.In the classroom or out of it, developing curiosity is sure to be valuable.( )6.What does the writer mainly want us to do after reading the passage?A.To make others happy.B.To show off our knowledge.C.To develop our curiosity.D.To become an inventor or a researcher.( )7.According to the passage, curiosity ________.A.is the only part of human nature B.depends on books and TV showsC.can’t create the desire for answers D.may lead to many great discoveries( )8.What would happen without curiosity?A.Students may become less interested in classes.B.People will know more about the world. C.People can still become better workers.D.Students can’t improve it again.( )9.What does the underlined word “desire” in the passage mean?A.wish B.chance C.choice D.pity( )10.What is the best title of the passage?A.A New Discovery B.A Natural AbilityC.A Great Invention D.A Famous CreationCThe size and shape of your ears show your character more than any other parts of the face. Other parts of the face change shape as we get older, but ears do not change their shape. They only change in size.Reading people’s character from their ears is an old science. In very old times people thought that a person with big ears had a good and generous character. They thought that a person with pale (nearly white), small ears was dangerous. They also thought that the shape of the ear showed whether a person was musical or not. Today, too, many people believe that the size and the shape of the ear help you know if a person is musical.Ears are all different, and each characteristic has a meaning. Next time when you look at a person, see if his ears are large or small. Look at the lobes (the lowest part of the ear). Are they attached (连着) to the face? Ears that are always red mean a person may easily get angry, or he/she just has high blood pressure (高血压). Ears that are always cold and pale mean a person has a nervous character. And a big inside hole of the ear means a person is musical.( )11.What might in the old times people ask for help from a person with?A.Red ears.B.Big ears.C.Small ears.D.Pale ears.( )12.What is the passage mainly about?A.The size of our ears.B.Musical ears.C.Ears which related to characters.D.Our faces and ears.( )13.What do we know change shape as we get older from the passage?A.Ears.B.Hair.C.Eyes.D.Teeth.( )14.What can we guess Beethoven may have?A.Pale ears.B.White ears.C.Small ears.D.Ears with a big inside hole.( )15.What may you find the ears of your teacher if you are often late for school?A.Get bigger.B.Get smaller.C.Get colder.D.Get redder.DTea bag drinking is most Westerner’s favorite way of drinking tea. Do you know how it came about?The tea bag was invented in 1980 by Thomas Sullivan, an American tea seller. He was sending out free tea in silk bags for people to try. People put the bags together with the tea leaves into the cup and added hot water. The tea tasted good, and people thought it was easy to clean the cup. They were not happy when Sullivan started sending them loose(散的) tea again.Sullivan realized that he had a hot new thing in his hands, and he built a machine to pack the bags. As tea bags became popular, they were changed from silk to gauze(薄纱) and later paper. In 1952, Lipton Tea made the tea bag even more popular with its invention of the four-sided tea bag. Tea bags were soon a hit in the UK, and today 85% of the tea in the UK is packed in paper bags.However, many people still prefer loose-leaf tea. This is because some tea companies put not very good tea in their tea bags. But for most drinkers, tea bags are still the easy, tasty way to go.( )16.Who invented tea bag? _________.A.An English tea seller B.The ChineseC.Lipton D.Thomas Sullivan( )17.The tea in silk bags was welcome because ________.A.the tea in bags was free and very goodB.the tea tasted good and the cups was easy to washC.people were happy with the loose teaD.people didn’t know any better way to enjoy the tea( )18.The underlined part “Tea bags were soon a hit in the UK” means “_________ in the UK”.A.Tea bags soon became popularB.Tea bags surprised everyone very muchC.Tea bags kicked(踢) the loose-leaf out of the marketD.Tea bags weren’t allowed to be sold( )19.The material of the tea bag is usually ________ now.A.silk B.gauze C.paper D.plastic( )20.What can be the best title for this passage?A.The invention of tea B.The way of drinking teaC.The history of tea bags D.People’s favorite tea in the worldEIt was really a big day for Mrs. Smith. Her husband, an ordinary office worker gave her ten pounds for her birthday—ten pretty pound notes. She could at last buy the beautiful thing she had always wanted. So the day after her birthday Mrs. Smith went shopping. She got on a bus and sat down next to an old lady. After a while she noticed that the old lady’s bag was open. Inside it, she found a wad of pound notes like the one her husband had given her the day before. She quickly looked into her own bag—the notes were gone. Mrs. Smith was sure that the old lady sitting next to her must have stolen them. She thought she would not have to call the police as she didn’t like getting people into trouble. So she decided to take back the money from the lady’s bag and say nothing about it. She looked around the bus to make sure nobody was watching, then she carefully put her hand into the old lady’s handbag, took out the notes and put them into the bag of her own.When she returned home that evening, she showed her husband the beautiful hat she had bought. “How did you pay for it?” he asked in surprise. “With the money you gave me for my birthday of course.” “Oh,what’s that then?” he asked, as he pointed to a wad of pound notes on the table.( )21.When did Mrs. Smith go shopping?A.After she bought the hat.B.Before her birthday.C.The day after her birthday.D.During her birthday.( )22.On the bus Mrs. Smith found___________.A.she had left her money homeB.the old lady stealing her moneyC.her money missingD.the old lady wearing a beautiful hat( )23.How did she get the money from the old lady?A.She asked the police for help.B.She made the old lady give back the money.C.She got it out of her pocket.D.She took it in a secret way.( )24.How did her husband feel when she showed him the hat she had bought?

In 1790, many opera troupes(戏班)went to Beijing for performances to celebrate the birthday of Qianlong. This kind of unusual performance touched the hearts of the people deeply. While in Beijing, the troupes created a new kind of opera called Beijing Opera. It was on the basis(基础)of Anhui Opera by taking in the advantages of other operas.Beijing Opera is quite unique(唯一的)in role shaping because it divides the roles into different kinds. They are sheng, dan, jing and chou which are quite different in many ways.A popular song goes like this, “Foreigners call Jingxi Beijing Opera.” In fact, Beijing Opera is different from opera. Opera tells the story and expresses the thoughts by singing instead of speaking. But Beijjing Opera stresses(强调)chang, nian, zuo and da. Chang means singing; nian means musical spoken parts; zuo means dance movements and da means martial(武打)skills.Mei Lanfang is an excellent performing artist of Beijing Opera in China.

For example, when you travel in a taxi, the car gives off (排放) CO2 into the air. CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases make the earth become warm. To protect our environment, we need to leave less of a “carbon footprint”. How big is your carbonfootprint? To get an idea, take a look at the following numbers.Living areas★ TV sets and DVD players produce 723 kg of CO2 a year.★ If you turn them off when you’re not using them, you can cut that number by 108 kg.Laundry roomDrying clothes in a dryer produces a lot of CO2.★ If you use your dryer five times per week, you produce 185 kg of CO2 per year.★ Dry your clothes in the sun instead.Bathroom★ If you take an eight-minute shower every day, you produce 616 kg of CO2 a year.★ If you only use six minutes to take a shower, you can cut that number by 154 kg a year.根据短文,判断正(T)误(F)。

People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others.Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others.

According to the Ministry of Education, the introduction of the rule is a way of making sure of the safety, nutrition and health levels of school food.School leaders from kindergartens to high schools should get together with students during school meals. The plan will guide them to pay more attention to food safety at school.This move came after a list of school food safety problems in the past few years. In March, 2019, moldy (发霉的) food was found in a primary school dining room in Chengdu. The news led to people’s worries. Parents asked to make sure of school food safety.Under the new rule, schools are asked to tell where the food comes from, who offers it and other information. The rule says schools should help students get into healthy eating habits. It also invites parents to eat with students at school to make them less worried.In the United States, obesity rates(肥胖率) have kept rising over the past thirty years. The new law introduced by Michelle Obama has pushedschools to make low-calorie(卡路里) menus. Even the healthiest choices are commonly provided by large food companies.Schools in Japan also give children a homemade meal for lunch. The food is grown locally and almost is never frozen. The meals are often made by cooks from the beginning. And they’re balanced but heavy on rice, vegetables and fish.1. The purpose of asking teachers and headmasters to eat with students at every meal is EXCEPT making sure of ________.A. students’ food safetyB. avoiding students’ noiseC. the nutrition of school foodD.

2022--2023学年上学期期末九年级阅读理解专项练习一(一)Isn’t fast food delicious? Aren’t fast food restaurants cool? ... The answer to these questions is yes.However, there are growing facts that fast food is one of the worst parts of modern life. And studies have shown that burgers and fried chicken, which we enjoy so much, can cause a lot of health problems.In spite of (尽管) this, why are fast food restaurants so attractive(吸引人的)? The first and most important reason is that their service is fast. Their staff(员工) are friendly and verysmart-looking in their clean and bright uniforms(制服). Moreover, most fast food restaurants are near places that people always pass by. It is so easy to grab a burger and eat on the way to work.Fast food is often so conveniently packed(包装方便) that it will not cause a mess even if you stand and eat it. Fast food restaurants are also very clean. A lot of clever ads(广告) have made them the coolest places in town, but none of them has ever told and will never tell you that too much fast food is not good for your health.Such attractive places are selling junk food! Isn’t it a pity? Is there a way to change the fast food restaurants into special places where you get the best possible, healthy and fresh food?Well, why not?As people realize the health problems that fast food causes, it is quite likely that fast food restaurants may go out of date. It may happen sooner or later.Therefore, instead of resisting(抵制) fast food restaurants, a better idea may be to persuade(说服) them to change their menu! Fast food restaurants can be places to go to when you want to eat something that will be good for your body. If they could combine(结合) healthy food with their speed of service, delicious tastes and comfortable feelings, that will be the next best thing on the earth for the human beings!1.What does “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Fast food is delicious.B.Fast food restaurants are cool.C.People enjoy fast food.D.Fast food can cause health problems. 2.Fast food has many advantages EXCEPT that it’s ________.A.delicious B.fastC.healthy D.unhealthy3.Which word can replace the word “grab” in Paragraph 3?A.move suddenly B.get quicklyC.throw quickly D.carry carefully4.According to the passage, ads about fast food ________.A.show you all the facts B.don’t tell you the whole truthC.make it hard to buy fast food D.make fast food restaurants out of date 5.The author advises ________.A.making the service of fast food faster B.resisting fast food restaurants C.changing tastes of fast food D.making fast food good for health(二)When you go on the street, in the neighborhood and almost everywhere, you can always see four bins of different colors. It’s what China is carrying out (实施) — waste sorting (分类).At present, waste in our life can mainly be divided into four kinds: recyclable waste, kitchen waste, harmful waste and other waste. Different kinds of waste should be put into different bins. Recyclable waste must be thrown into the blue bin. Kitchen waste should be collected in the green bin. Harmful waste should be in the red one and the grey one is for other waste.Do you know what recyclable waste means? It’s the material that can be recycled or reused, including paper, plastics, glass, metals and so on. The kitchen waste includes vegetable leaves, peel, bone and others. Harmful waste is bad for people’s health and the environment. It needs to be carefully dealt with. Some may be buried and some may be burned.There are many advantages of waste sorting. It helps to turn the waste into useful things. Chinese people, old and young, are learning environmental protection. Students in schools often take part in environmental projects. Actually, it’s not difficult for us to do this simple thing but our actions can make a great difference to the city. So take action now.

Zhang Guishun, the Party secretary of Shashiyu, encouraged his villagers to do their best to pull themselves out of poverty. “In the ancient Chinese story, Yu Gong could move mountains with his strong will and hard work, why can’t we? Nobody was born to be poor?” Hearing his words, the villagers decided to make a difference.Led by the Communist Party of China(中国共产党), the villagers carried water and soil to their village from faraway places to improve their land. From 1966 to. 1971, they reclaimed(开垦)lots of land and greatly improved their life.However, the village encountered a new problem two decades later as the environment became heavily polluted by chemical plants and mine refineries built in 1990s.The polluting factories were shut down in 2004, and villagers started grape cultivation, which soon became a main industry in Shashiyu.In 2009, the city-level government invested over 1 million yuan($152, 723) to change the village’s exhibition hall into a museum in memory of development efforts made by earlier generations.After 10 years, the village was called “National Forest Village”.Zhang said that the village started a yearly tourism festival in 2015 to attract travelers to pick grapes. “The grapes could be sold at a better price once Shashiyu becomes famous through this festival. Our villagers can then live even better lives,” he said.16.Why did Zhang Guishun use the story of Yu Gong to encourage the villagers?A.Because Yu Gong had strong will and hard work.B.Because Yu Gong was born poor too.C.Because the villagers worshiped Y u Gong.D.Because Yu Gong became rich at last.17.From 1966 to 1971, what did the villagers do to improve their living situation?A.They planted grapes to earn money.B.They carried water and soil to their village to improve their lands.C.They moved to another place to live a better life.D.They built a lot of factories.18.Which word can be used to describe the villagers?A.Hard-working.B.Lazy.C.Kind-hearted.D.Stupid.19.When was Shashiyu called "National Forest Village"?A.In 2009.B.In 2004.C.In 2015.D.In 2019. 20.Where can you probably read the passage?A.In a storybook.B.In a newspaper.C.Ina sports magazine.D.In a science book(五)Jiang Mengnan, a girl from Chenzhou, Hunan, received the Touching China Person of the Year Award for 2021.Jiang Mengnan was born in 1992 in Mangshan, Chenzhou. When she was six months old, she was found unable to speak. Three months later, she was diagnosed(诊断)with heavy loss of hearing in two ears and the doctors said they couldn’t cure her.Since then, Jiang Mengnan’s world has been silent. Her parents, who are both teachers, didn’t want their lovely daughter to be a deafmute(聋哑人)all her life. In order to make the girl speak, they tried all possible ways. At last, they decided to teach her vocalization(发声)and lipreading (唇语). In this way, Mengnan learned to understand others and even learned to talk with others, though it was a long and hard process.With her great efforts, Jiang Mengnan finished her primary and secondary education smoothly. In 2011, she got into Jilin University and in 2018 she became a Doctor of School of Life Sciences, Tsinghua University.

They had to spend hours of time in front of their screens. Because of this, teenagers in Washington were feeling anxious (焦虑的) and unsure about their future, according to a survey by The Seattle Times.Almost all of the students who were surveyed said online learning is a challenge. It was not easy for them to understand their lessons and find a quiet place to study. “There isn’t an easy way to communicate with classmates and work together to solve problems, finish work, or to ask questions,” one student said. Many students said they needed to have more understanding and patience, especially as they had to deal with other work.For example, while studying at home, some students also had to look after their younger brothers or sisters or do some work to support (支持) their families. Neela Agarwal, Ava Finn, and Esteban Ortiz-Villacorta, the students who created the survey, are all high schoolers. They met with Chris Reykdal, the state superintendent (局长) of public instruction, to share their findings. They told Reykdal about the need for schools to understand and help solve students’ problems. Schools could encourage their teachers to help students. “For a lot of students, that (school) is their main resource (资源),” Finn,16, said.

The Zhurong rover (火星车) was sent on Mars(火星), the Tianhe space sation traveled among the stars and three Chinese astronauts are still on duty in outer space.It was also a year to fight against COVID-19. Many foreign leaders and heads of international organizations have praised our fight against the virus.

One way to fight it is by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. New research shows that trees planted in China have helped in this fight.A recent study in the journal Nature shows that the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed (吸收) by new forests in two parts of China is more than we thought. These areas are in the northeastern Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces and the southwestern Yunnan and Guizhou provinces and Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. They make up about 35 percent of China’s land-based (基于陆地的) carbon sinks (碳汇). A carbon sink is a natural area like a forest or ocean that absorbs more-carbon dioxide than it emits (排放). Carbon sinks help to reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.China’s goal is to peak (达到峰值) its CO2 emissions (排放) before 2030 and reach carbon neutrality (中和) by 2060, Xinhua reported. Carbon neutrality refers to removing as much CO2 as one puts into the air.According to study co-author Yi Liu at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, “the afforestation (植树造林) activities described in our Nature paper will play a role in reaching that goal.”41.A recent study in Nature shows that ________.A.China has serious air pollution B.China has planted the most trees in the world C.China has fewer CO2 emissions (排放) now D.China has planted fewer trees42.Carbon sinks will ________.A.absorb more CO2 than they emit B.give off CO2 emissions more quickly C.release less CO2 into the air D.have no CO2 in their air43.According to Xinhua, China ________.A.is the world’s largest emitter of CO2B.will bring CO2 emissions down after 2030 C.will not release CO2 in the future D.will reach carbon neutrality by 2030 44.Which of the following is NOT TRUE in the passage?A.One way to fight climate is by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.B.Trees planted in China have helped fight against climate change.C.New forests in two parts of China absorbed more carbon dioxide than we thought.D.35 percent of China’s land has been affected by CO2 emission.45.What do we know from the story?A.It takes a long time for carbon sinks to form.B.Climate change is no longer a serious problem.C.More trees will be planted in China in the future.D.China has beaten climate change.(十)China’s National Health Commission (NHC) on Thursday said it will continue fully supporting the Hong Kong government and meet its needs in controlling the COVID-19 outbreak. The commission said that it has been paying close attention to the fifth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Hong Kong.A group of experts were sent from Guangdong Province to Hong Kong on Thursday, along with two mobile COVID-19 test vehicles (检测车).A 114-member work group from the Chinese mainland started for the Hong Kong on Saturday February 19, to support the region’s COVID-19 control efforts. The group left from the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen and will work with the Hong Kong government in care research, treatment, and nucleic acid testing (核酸检测) to help Hong Kong control its latest breakout of COVID-19.

The worst tourist in the world is Nicholas Scottie of San-Francisco. Once
he flew from the U.S. to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home.
The plane made one-hour stop to get oil at Kennedy Airport of New York.
As he thought he had arrived home. Mr. Scottie got off the plane. He
thought he was in Rome. When nobody was there to meet him, Mr.
Scottie thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic. While looking
for their address, Mr. Scottie found that the old “Rome”had changed a lot. Many old buildings were replaced by high modern ones. He also
found that many people spoke English instead of Italian and that many
streets were written in English. Mr. Scottie knew very little English, so he
asked a policeman the way to the bus station. He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered him in the same
language. After twelve hour’s traveling round on a bus, the driver
handed him over to a second policeman. He asked the policeman why
the Rome police employed so many people as policemen speaking
English instead of Italian. Mr. Scottie did not believe he was in New York
when he was told so. To get him on a plane back to San Francisco, he was
sent to the airport in a police car with sirens (警报) on. “Look,”said。
