初二英语阅读理解之主旨大意30题1<背景文章>A Teenager's Environmental Protection JourneyTom, a 14 - year - old boy, has always been passionate about the environment. One day, he decided to embark on a journey to promote environmental protection. He started from his small town and planned to reach the big city nearby.Along the way, he saw many things that both amazed and worried him. He passed by a beautiful forest where the trees were so tall and the birds were singing merrily. However, not far from there, he also noticed a large area of deforested land. The bare soil was exposed, and it was a sad sight. He met some local farmers there, and they told him that they had to cut down the trees to make more space for farming because of the increasing population.Tom faced many challenges during his journey. One of the biggest challenges was the lack of understanding from some people. When he tried to tell people about the importance of environmental protection in a small village, some villagers just laughed at him. They thought that a young boy like him knew nothing and they were more concerned about making money to support their families. But Tom didn't give up. He used simple andpractical examples to explain to them. For instance, he told them that if they continued to cut down trees at will, the soil would be washed away by rain more easily, which would eventually affect their farming.As he got closer to the big city, he saw more pollution problems. The air was not as fresh as in his small town, and there were many factories with thick black smoke coming out of their chimneys. He also noticed that there were a lot of plastic bags and bottles littered on the streets. Tom started to pick up some of the rubbish and put it into the bins. His action attracted the attention of some passers - by. He took this opportunity to talk to them about reducing waste and recycling.By the time he reached the big city, Tom had already spread his environmental protection ideas to many people. He organized a small event in the city center, where he showed pictures of the beautiful forest and the deforested land he had seen, and told people about the importance of protecting the environment. His journey was not easy, but he made a difference.1. What did Tom see in the forest area?A. Only beautiful scenery.B. A deforested area not far from the beautiful forest.C. A lot of hunters.D. A big factory.答案：B。

ASome children wish to be writers some day. They want to write stories or books for people to read. That's good! It's good to write something for people to read! But they should know that they need to be good readers first before they are really good writers. They should read a lot of books, instead(代替) of watching TV and spending a lot of time playing games when they are free.There is more fun in reading, you want to look for more books to read.Before you decide(决定) to be a good writer, you'd better say to yourself, "I must read more and more!"根据短文内容，选择正确答案。

Between then and now many changes will happen. But what will the changes be?The population is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and most of them will live longer than people live now.Computers will be much smaller and more useful，and there will be at least one in every home. And computer studies will be one of the important subjects in schools then. People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports，watching TV and traveling. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.There will be changes in our food，too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep，so meat will be more expensive .Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead，they will eat more fruits and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier. Work in the future will be different，too. Robots will do dangerous and hard work. Because of this，many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.1.From the passage we can infer that__________?A. There will be more pollution in the future.B. computers will be smarter.C. People will have less work to do.D. We will see great changes around us.CWhen I was young，I liked to play jokes on people I knew, especially on my parents and friends. One day my mother was cooking and I was playing with my younger brother Tony. Suddenly I ran to my mother and said: “Tony fell from the open window!”She was very worried and ran out of the kitchen. Then I said: “Don’t worry, I’m just joking.” My mother shouted at me, “If you do it again, I’ll hit you.”Another day I went swimming with my friends in the sea. I wanted to play a joke on them. In the beginning I swam fast and I called out “Help!”. All my friends came to help me. However, they found that I was joking. But half an hour later I wasn’t joking. I was so fast, soon I got tired and couldn’t swim on in water. I tried my best to call my friends for help, but this time nobody came to help me.In the end they found I was telling the truth. They came and saved my life. They took me to the hospital. This is the best lesson in my life. From then on I haven’t joked on anyone.1. The story tells us that ________.A. swimming is dangerousB. the writer is a naughty boyC. one can play jokes only on people he knowsD. if someone always tells lies, others won’t trust (信任) himDYou're buying a used car, moving into a new house, or deciding which doctor should treat your illness. These are times when you need to get directly to the core(核心) of an important matter.Asking general questions gets little valuable information and may even result in unreal answers, says Julia Minson, a visiting scholar in decision sciences at the University of Pennsylvania in the US. The best way, says Minson, is to ask a lot of questions that discover there are problems.Let's say someone is selling a used iPod. An example of a general question is "What can you tell me about it?" A positive-assumption(正面推测)question is" There aren't ant problems with it, right? "But a negative-assumption question, such as "What problems have you had with it?" will get the most honest answer, found Minson and her team.In a study, 87% of the sellers warned the buyers to problems when asked a negative-assumption question, while 59% of those did the same thing to a positive-assumption one.When you want the truth, you have to ask for it. What problems does this car have? What are the most parts of this job? How many people with my kind of illness have been successfully treated? Your questions should communicate that you are sure there will be difficulties and that you want to know about them.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. How to Find Honest PeopleB. How to Talk with othersC. How to Get an Honest AnswerD. How to Avoid Being Cheated。

The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（⼤⽓）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（⽓象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（⽐较）them with earlierones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.1. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space2.

ASome children wish to be writers some day. They want to write stories or books for people to read. That's good! It's good to write something for people to read! But they should know that they need to be good readers first before they are really good writers. They should read a lot of books, instead(代替) of watching TV and spending a lot of time playing games when they are free.There is more fun in reading, you want to look for more books to read.Before you decide(决定) to be a good writer, you'd better say to yourself, "I must read more and more!"根据短文内容，选择正确答案。
( ) 1. This article mainly tells us that ________.A. some children wish to be writers some dayB. it is good to write something for people to readC. reading can be helpful for us to become a good writerD. writers like to read more books for fun( ) 2. From the passage we know that ________.A. all children like to be writersB. people like to read for childrenC. all writers are childrenD. children need to read more and more booksBLife in the future will be different from life today. Between then and now many changes will happen. But what will the changes be?The population is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and most of them will live longer than people live now.Computers will be much smaller and more useful，and there will be at least one in every home. And computer studies will be one of the important subjects in schools then. People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports，watching TV and traveling. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.There will be changes in our food，too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep，so meat will be more expensive .Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead，they will eat more fruits and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier. Work in the future will be different，too. Robots will do dangerous and hard work. Because of this，many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.1.From the passage we can infer that__________?A. There will be more pollution in the future.B. computers will be smarter.C. People will have less work to do.D. We will see great changes around us.CWhen I was young，I liked to play jokes on people I knew, especially on my parents and friends. One day my mother was cooking and I was playing with my younger brother Tony. Suddenly I ran to my mother and said: “Tony fell from the open window!”She was very worried and ran out of the kitchen. Then I said: “Don’t worry, I’m just joking.” My mother shouted at me, “If you do it again, I’ll hit you.”Another day I went swimming with my friends in the sea. I wanted to play a joke on them. In the beginning I swam fast and I called out “Help!”. All my friends came to help me. However, they found that I was joking. But half an hour later I wasn’t joking. I was so fast, soon I got tired and couldn’t swim on in water. I tried my best to call my friends for help, but this time nobody came to help me.In the end they found I was telling the truth. They came and saved my life. They took me to the hospital. This is the best lesson in my life. From then on I haven’t joked on anyone.1. The story tells us that ________.A. swimming is dangerousB. the writer is a naughty boyC. one can play jokes only on people he knowsD. if someone always tells lies, others won’t trust (信任) himDYou're buying a used car, moving into a new house, or deciding which doctor should treat your illness. These are times when you need to get directly to the core(核心) of an important matter.Asking general questions gets little valuable information and may even result in unreal answers, says Julia Minson, a visiting scholar in decision sciences at the University of Pennsylvania in the US. The best way, says Minson, is to ask a lot of questions that discover there are problems.Let's say someone is selling a used iPod. An example of a general question is "What can you tell me about it?" A positive-assumption(正面推测)question is" There aren't ant problems with it, right? "But a negative-assumption question, such as "What problems have you had with it?" will get the most honest answer, found Minson and her team.In a study, 87% of the sellers warned the buyers to problems when asked a negative-assumption question, while 59% of those did the same thing to a positive-assumption one.When you want the truth, you have to ask for it. What problems does this car have? What are the most parts of this job? How many people with my kind of illness have been successfully treated? Your questions should communicate that you are sure there will be difficulties and that you want to know about them.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. How to Find Honest PeopleB. How to Talk with othersC. How to Get an Honest AnswerD. How to Avoid Being Cheated。
