you learned in your first Chinese class in primary school was probably pinyin.The year2018marks pinyin's sixtieth birthday.In1958,Chinese linguist(语言学家)Zhou Youguang and his team designed pinyin.Before that,Chinese people used many other methods to denote(标注)the pronunciation of Chinese characters.In ancient China, people denoted Chinese characters using other Chinese characters that had the same pronunciation.Some of the symbols are Chinese character strokes(笔画).For example,a vertical stroke(一竖)pronounced as“i”in pinyin.Some people in Taiwan still use this method.However,these methods are not as simple as pinyin.Because of pinyin,many illiterate(不识字的)people have learned how to read.We use pinyin to type Chinese characters into computers and phones.Pinyin has been useful in other ways,too.It helps to promote the use of Standard Chinese,or Mandarin, so people who speak different dialects(方言)can still understand each other.Pinyin is not only popular in China.Many people around the world start to learn Chinese by learning pinyin.You might say“nihao”instead of “hello”to a foreign friend.The Oxford English Dictionary(《牛津英语词典》)includes more than100Chinese words in pinyin,such as zhongguomeng for“Chinese dream”,and wanggou for“online shopping”.Pinyin is not only a language tool,but also a cultural bridge that connects China to the world,Guangming Daily noted.Pinyin is still young.But it has been and will still be a useful tool in the future.()6.The underlined word“promote”in the second paragraph may mean“________”in the passage.A.解释B.改善C.表达D.介绍()7.Paragraph2mainly tells us about________.A.the history of pinyin B.the designers of pinyinC.the problems of pinyin D.the future of pinyin()8.The writer talks about the Oxford English Dictionary to tell us ________.A.pinyin is popular only in ChinaB.pinyin is popular all over the worldC.pinyin will not be used in the futureD.English will be replaced(代替)by pinyin()9.We can learn from the passage________.A.pinyin has been used since ancient ChinaB.people in Taiwan prefer to use pinyinC.pinyin is useful in many waysD.we will not use pinyin in the future()10.We can infer from the passage that the writer feels________ about the future of pinyin.A.doubtful B.unsureC.hopeful D.sad2020年广东中考英语阅读理解限时训练(三)AHello,lovely boys and girls.I would like to introduce our English language holidays for you.As English is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world,millions of people look forward to studying English abroad(在国外)during holidays.English language holidays are taken in Englishspeaking countries like England,the USA,Australia and so on.There,you study in a language school with students from many different countries.You live with local(本地的)people,and often stay with a host family.The English language holiday has become a very popular way of learning English because it has many advantages.●Constant Experience(持续的体验)Because you are in an Englishspeaking country,from the time you wake up and have breakfast with your host family until late evening,you have no opportunity to escape the English language.●Mixed(混合的)ClassesOn a language holiday,students come from all over the world.It is possible that nobody in your class will speak your language,so you will just have to speak English.●Free From PressureOn a language holiday,you may forget the everyday pressure of school.You feel more relaxed and you can learn easily.●Cultural UnderstandingLearning a language is not only about learning words.Different countries have different cultures.People think and behave(表现)differently.By visiting and living in a foreign country,you learn to understand the culture and the people,and so understand the language better.If you want to know more about it,don't forget to attend our introduction meeting on time.It will be held at eight tomorrow morning in our school hall.You won't realize its advantages until you experience it by yourself.()1.The followings are all Englishspeaking countries EXCEPT ______according to the passage.A.EnglandB.the USAC.RussiaD.Australia()2.While you are

photos,call a Didi Taxi,send short messages or emails,check emails,surf the Internet and watch videos almost anywhere.Especially,smartphone shopping has become more and more popular in our life because people can buy almost everything they need there.You are wondering how to shop on smartphones?Let me show you.If you live in the central part of the city,and you need to buy some fresh grapes from the east of the city,you can use your smartphone.To start with,all you need to do is download a shopping app(应用程序)and find a suitable store you like.Shopping on the smartphone has a lot of advantages,of which the most important is perhaps its convenience.People don't have to waste a lot of energy and time to go from one shop to another to choose things they like.This is especially good for the old,the sick and the busy people who cannot go to the shops by themselves.However,shopping on the smartphone also has its disadvantages. The first disadvantage is that people can't see the goods or try them on by themselves.Sometimes,the real goods may not be the same as what they have seen on the smartphone.The second disadvantage is that some shops on the Internet are not registered(登记的).They will never deliver(递送)anything to you after they get the money from you.Once you are cheated,you will find that you have nowhere to go to complain(投诉).()6.Smartphone shopping has become more and more popular in our life because______.A.we can take photos and send short messagesB.we can buy almost everything we needC.we can check emails and surf the InternetD.we can make phone calls and call a Didi Taxi()7.If you want to shop on smartphones,you should______at first.A.go to the storeB.find a suitable storeC.send emails to the shopD.download a shopping app()8.What does the underlined word“convenience”mean in Chinese?A.麻烦B.方便C.舒适D.交流()9.The number of disadvantages of shopping on smartphones is ______.A.oneB.twoC.threeD.four()10.What's the best title of this passage?A.Smartphone shopping.B.The usages of smartphone shopping.C.The advantages of smartphone shopping.D.The disadvantages of smartphone shopping.AHow winter weather influences the subway serviceWhen temperatures drop,and ice and snow fall on the tracks,know more service changes by:☆listening to your local traffic broadcasts☆visiting our website ☆signing up for email or text message warnings on our website☆following us on Twitter(NYCTSubwayScoop)☆calling our travel information line at 718-330-1234Our goal is to keep as many trains in service as possible and to keep you informed.Depending on how bad the weather is,here’s what you can expect:Service on these lines may run local on different parts of their routes:A,E,D,F,N,Q,2,3,4,5Service will change on these lines:G —Service between Court Square and 71st Street will stop for some time.7—Reduced service 11p.m.—1a.m.After 1a.m.normal late night service startsagain.S —*42nd Street train runs all night*Dyre Road trains go farther to 149th Street*Rockaway Park train goes farther to Euclid RoadExpect service on these weekday lines to end earlier than normal:B(take D or Q instead),V(take F instead),W(take N instead)Please allow for more travel time and listen for broadcasts.Thank you.2020年广东中考英语阅读理解限时训练(四)()11.People can know about subway service changes in winter through_____ ways.A.threeB.fouC.fiveD.six()12.The subway website will_____.A.send emails to some passengersB.keep all the underground trains in serviceC.follow the passengers around in the stationD.call the travel information line to know about the changes()13.What service changes there will be depends on_____.A.the weatherB.the seasonC.passengersD.the temperature()14.The service of_____lines will change if necessary.A.tenB.fourteenC.sixteenD.eighteen()15.When Line V ends earlier,passengers can take_____.A.Line7B.Line QC.Line5D.Line FBWould you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you,and self-driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves?Although it might sound a little far from you,living in a“smart”city like this could happen sooner than you think.Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built.One such place is the city of Songdo. Every home there will have a“tele-presence system(远程遥控系统)”allowing users to control the heating and locks,take part in video meetings,and receiveeducation,health care and government services.Around the city,escalators(自动扶梯)will only move when someone is on them,and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco.In fact,technology companies around the world such as IBM,Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.“About75%of the world’s population will live in cities by2050,so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems.Making cities smarter is one way out,and I think this will in turn make cities greener,”said Dan Hill, head of a research company.()16.According to the text,living in a“smart”city_____.A.is not a green wayB.will be far from youC.will soon become trueD.is completely impossible()17.The underlined phrase“in turn”means_____in Chinese.A.反过来B.轮流C.依次地D.翻转()18._____offers the great mind to build Songdo.A.CiscoB.IBMC.SiemensD.Microsoft()19.Dan Hill thinks that making cities smarter is one way to_____.A.drive people out of citiesB.control the world’s populationC.develop his own companyD.solve the cities’coming problems()20.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A.Future EducationB.Smart Citiesernment ServicesD.Famous Companies【参考答案】训练一1-5 D A D B B 6-10 B C B A D 训练二1~5 D D A B B 6~10 D A B C C 训练三1~5C A B D C6~10B D B B A 训练四1-5 C A A C D 6-10 C A A D B。

中山市中考英语英语阅读理解(含答案)一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1.阅读理解Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you. When you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health. When you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you. When you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy because you have more chances to challenge yourselves. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. If you take every chance you get, you will be a happy and lucky person.(1)Happiness is for .A. all peopleB. those who have a lot moneyC. those who have large and beautiful housesD. those who have cars(2)When you do something wrong, .A. you have no chance to challenge youB. people around you will help youC. your classmates will laugh at youD. you will be happy(3)"Happiness is not the same as money" means .A. money doesn't always bring happinessB. money always brings happinessC. everything can always bring happinessD. only rich people have happiness(4)Which is the best title for the passage?A.

【专题100练】中山市中考英语试卷英语阅读理解题分类汇编试题含解析答案
中考英语英语阅读理解训练经典题目(含答案)100一、英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Like most of her friends, Georgie Sanderson has 24-houpa-day access(使用权) to technology through her mobile phone, iPod Touch and home computer. But the 15-year-old girl says she is too busy to spend her days on Facebook. She only uses it once or twice a day. "The 10th grade is busy, and I have to work hard. Even when I'm not studying, I have better things to do with my time, such as being outside or spending time with my friends," she says. Georgie has a part-time job. She watches TV for a while in the afternoon and she helps with the housework.Georgie's words prove the findings of a new report. According to the report, teenagers today are not completely dominated(支配) by technology, although they have been into a digital(数字) world. They spend most of their time on their homework, TV, part-time jobs, hobbies, sports, friendship or reading instead of playing or chatting on the computer.

But the mosquito may decide that she loves you. She? Yes, she. I t’s true that male mosquito doesn’t bite(咬) and only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If shelikes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn’t like your blood,she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you, just remember you are chosen. You’re different from the others!If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. By the time the itching begins, and she has flown away.And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She just wants to find a place to have a good rest.

Think about allthe water faucets (水龙头) in the toilet. Think about all the air conditioning in summer. Saving energy is a hot topic for such a bigplace!Many things at the mall use energy. Electric lights, infrared (红外感应) faucets and air-conditioners need electricity to work.One way to save energy is by keeping lights clean. More and more dust and dirt make the lights less bright. When malls keep lights clean, they can use fewer lights and keep the area just as bright. Using fewer lights means using less energy.You step up to the water faucet. The water starts to flow. Youdon’t have to touch a thing. Why do malls have such fancy faucets? The answer is simple. They save water. Sometimes people forget to turn the water off after they wash.

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

His book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake, not only encouraged a love of travelling among Chinese people but provided important scientific information about the country s land and geography.Born into a wealthy Jiangyin family, Xu became interested in books about different places at an early age. When he was 18, however,Xu's father died. He now was responsible for the family farm and taking care of his 60-year-old mother as tradition required. But his mother refused to keep him at home. She agreed that Xu could travel for three months every year, when there was less farm work. So at the age of twenty and with his mother's support, Xu set off for the first time. Then he travelled for the next 30 years.During his travel, he carefully studied the lands he passed through and recorded his experiences in a diary. This diary, which once had over 500,000 words, would eventually become The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake. Although rich, Xu avoided comfortable travel, preferring to go almost everywhere on foot. This way he could research the environment in detail and get a true picture of the natural world.Sadly Xu became seriously ill during his last and longest journey. He died in 1641, soon after returning to his hometown for the last time. His diary was finally printed years after his death.()1. What is the passage mainly about?A.

It was only made public after Xu died.B. It made Xu very famous during his lifetime.C. It was the first travel book ever written in China.D. It was mainly about the different people of China.()5. What is the correct order for the following events from Xu's life?a. He went on his first journey.b. His book was finally printed.c. He returned to his hometown for the last time.d.

Where does rice come from? Yuan Longping and his team work to grow rice on the farmland.Food was a big problem in China in the past. This is because China had 22% of the world's population, but only 7% of its farmland. In the 1960s, China suffered (遭受) a serious famine. Millions of people died because they had no food. As an agronomy (农学)teacher, Yuan was very sad to see this. “How can I help them have enough food?” he thought. He decided to work on a kind of hybrid rice (杂交水稻). It has high output.At that time, other scientists didn t think hybrid rice had much value. But Yuan and his team worked on it every day. They took very good care of their rice seeds.At last, in 1973, they grew a new type of hybrid rice. This rice is strong. Farmers can grow it in many different kinds of farmland and also in bad weather. It can fight disease, too. Its output is much greater than common kinds of rice. With the new type, about 70,000,000 people could have food every year!Y uan solved the food problem in China. But he is still working on rice. Before he retires, he hopes to grow rice in the sea!()1.

Many pieces of pottery in different sizes were shown at the school. Some were a bit broken, but all of them were beautiful works of art created by the students.At the end of last year, the school started a project that called on teachers to collect disused pieces of pottery which people don't want them anymore or broken pieces of pottery from the countryside. So far, they have collected about 3,000 pieces.“Pottery used to play an important role in the daily lives of Chinese people.” school head Ma Guoxin told the reporter. “By pottery painting, the students can improve themselves in many ways. They can better understand the history of the pottery, put their creativity into the pottery and show the love for life and beauty.”Students turned the pottery into different works of art. They were all encouraged to paint pictures on the pottery, even though some students didn't know how to paint. Wang Zixuan, a student from Grade Eight, with little knowledge of painting, painted a beautiful night scenery on a piece of pottery. It was so nice that many students loved it.Almost every classroom has colored pieces of pottery. They are either used as flowerpots or pen containers (笔筒). The school has also set up several art corners to show the pottery. For example, the students have put some pottery on bookcases outside of a lecture hall(报告厅). It has become an enjoyable place for students to rest and read.()1. The school started the project of the pottery ________.A. at the beginning of 2018B. at the end of 2018C. at the beginning of 2019D. at the end of 2019()2.

We can't find any colored pottery in their classrooms.D. The students enjoy resting and reading at the art corners.()5. In which part of a newspaper can we read the passage?A. Sports news.B. Traditional art.C. Healthy living.D. Popular music.6Some researchers explain how most people form their social groups with people of their age. Especially, as children and teenagers, even adults, people make their friends basedon distance more than anything else. Even in a classroom, the students may not make friends with those who have similar personalities(性格) and interests. It's the people they really sit next to. Clearly, who stands nearest to you has the greatest influence on you.Over the past ten months, I've paid Ryan, a famous writer of several bestselling books, to help me with the book I'm writing. Working with him has shown me just how low my standards for my work are. For example, every time I send him a draft(草稿), he shows me how it could be much better, and he holds me to that standard.It's not that my working ability was born low. It's because that I don't know what I don't know. Working with Ryan has made me realize what is possible and what it takes to create something powerful.Like Ryan, my business partner Richard has wonderful ideas and far different experience than I have. He has written 36 New York Times Bestsellers. Richard always performs at high levels, and he is also very strict with me because my performance is a reflection(反映) on him. It's not a bad thing because it creates high pressure to help me make great progress and push me to learn more.In a word, you need to stay with those people who can help you realize your level and potential(潜力). Staying with people who have higher standards is the fastest way for you to change. If you don't change your environment, your progress will be very slow. Who you stay with has huge importance.()1. The students are more likely to make friends with ________.A. the people who have similar personalitiesB. the people who have the same interestsC. the people who sit next to themD. the people who have the same hobbies()2. The underlined word “pressure” means ________ according to the passage.A. 能力B. 压力C. 竞争D. 力量()3. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. It was free for Ryan to help the writer with the book.B. The writer's working ability was born low.C. Richard has wonderful ideas and the same experience with the writer.D. Staying with those who have higher standards can help us make great progress.()4. The writer mainly wants to tell us that ________.A. we can improve our working abilities by ourselvesB. we must pay attention to our talent and potentialC. we'd better make friends with those who can hold us to higher levelsD. we should stay with those who have similar personalities and interests()5. Where does the passage probably come from?A. A magazine.B. A travel guide.C. A storybook.D. A cooking instruction.7For his eleventh birthday, Lin was given a gift that would change his life. On that day his father took him to the Children's Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement (要求): Lin have to promise to study it for at least one year.Lin used to have many hobbies, but he never kept his interest for more than a week or two.Lin looked at all the courses on offer. He stopped at “Photography”. He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera. But a camera cost a lot of money. He continued looking.Then the next course caught his eyes. “Cooking” sounded like something he'd like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient, it could be done alone and it was also creative.His dad had doubts, but he agreed. To his parents' surprise, Lin kept his promise. He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday, and practised at home, making delicious meals for his family. Everyone looked forward to birthdays, when they could eat his cakes. Lin got greatsatisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others.The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again.Now Lin is an adult and runs a successful restaurant.()1.

The Fun of CookingD. The Birthday Gift8David walked down the street. All he wanted to do was to play basketball with Jim. But his mother told him to return his sister's books to the library on his way to Jim's house.In his eyes, books and summertime just don't go together. He thought he had read a lot during the school year. And he had never set foot inside a public library. Today he'd just drop the books off in the outside return box, but it was locked. He had to go inside to return them.David walked inside the building a few minutes before closing time. He put the books into the return box. After a quick drink of water and a short stop in the toilet, he'd be on his way to meet Jim. He walked out of the toilet. The library lights were turned off. He was locked—in a library!David tried to use the telephone, but he couldn't find one. As the sun began to set, he searched for a light and found a little one on a desk. He used a pencil to write a note on a big piece of paper. It read, “I'm locked inside. Please call for help.” He put it on the front door. Surely, someone passing by would see it. He then turned his attention to the library itself.He was surprised to discover that this place was not so bad. Rows and rows of books! When he saw a book about Michael Jordan on the desk, he picked it up. He opened the book and began to read. He felt that being locked in the library didn't seem to be such a terrible thing.()1. David's mother wanted him to ________.A. play basketball with JimB. take a walk in the streetC. read books in the libraryD. return his sister's books()2. David thought he had read a lot during ________.A. a visit to Jim'sB. the school yearC. the closing timeD. the summertime()3. David went inside the building because ________.A. the sun began to setB. he wanted to use the telephoneC. he needed to go to the toiletD. the outside return box was locked()4. Which of the following is true about the library EXCEPT ________.A. the library is open during summertimeB. there is a return box in the library for people to return booksC. there are very few books in the libraryD. the library is on the way to Jim’s house()5. David discovered that ________ after he was locked in the library.A. he was very afraid of the darkB. he became interested in this placeC. his mom was worried about himD. his friend became nervous about him9Is there a connection between music and language?According to recent studies, the answer is yes: Music improves certain language abilities in the brain. Here, let's look at two examples.A recent study by researcher Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person’s hearing ability. In his study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room.The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly. Musicians hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. Think about violinists in an orchestra. When the violinists play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise.Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. Schlaug was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn't sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the broken parts. This might help patients to use that part of the brain again. Music improves attention, memory, listening skills, and our overall language abilities. It can even help sick people get better.Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp (敏锐的) as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable, it's also good for us in many other ways.()1. ________ ability can be improved according to Kraus's recent study.A. SpeakingB. HearingC. TeachingD. Singing()2. The example of the violinists is shown to tell us that ________.A. violinists always focus on what they are playingB. speaking is more important than hearingC. music teaches the violinist how to singD. playing an instrument can help us be a better man()3. The underlined word “orchestra”means ______.A. 摇滚乐队B. 交响乐团C. 音乐俱乐部D. 故事会()4. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Music can't make different brain parts work.B. Music can never help sick people get better.C. Playing an instrument can help us do better in study.D. Singing words helped patients to dance.()5. The best title for this passage would be ________.A. The Meaning of MusicB. The Love for Music InstrumentC. Music can Make a DifferenceD. Music and Noise10()1. The fairs and festivals take place in ________.A. the USAB. ChinaC. BritainD. Italy()2.

But a special group of Chinese middle school students decided to taste the hardship of life outside school.Twelve students in a big city sold vegetables at a local market together. Within 12 days, they made more than 1,500 yuan. Among them, the oldest is 21 years old, while the youngest is just 10. They are all cousins in a big family and eight of them are from rural areas.“Compared to traveling, such social practice connects us and makes us learn how tough our parents are,” said Dalin,18, to the City Morning Post. Dalin, a senior high graduate, and her 12-year-old brother Xiaolin came up with the idea.They learned to work hard to sell their veggies. Every morning they had to wake up at 3 o'clock. Some of them went to the farmer's market to buy vegetables. Some of them went to the local market to take up a temporary stall (临时摊位). To lower the cost, they learned to bargain (讲价)with the sellers.At about 6:30 am, they began to sell vegetables. They peddled (吆喝) loudly to attract(吸引)customers. After several days, they got some experience, too.For example, it was better to put vegetables in order and bigger ones on top. When the vegetables are too heavy, they should give customers an extra plastic bag.When they finally packed up and went home, they had a small meeting. Everyone took notes and shared their feelings.“We are tired,” said Dalin, “but we gained a lot.”()1. In the writer's opinion, the 12 students' action was ________.A. popularB. encouragingC. strangeD. embarrassing()2. The cousins decided to sell vegetables at a market to ________.A. show how able they wereB. have less hardship of lifeC. learn how hard their parents workD. prepare for their future traveling()3.

It's clear that ________.A. they took up the temporary stall in turnB. they gave each customer an extra plastic bagC. Dalin and Xiaolin got the idea of selling vegetablesD. the elder sold vegetables when the younger took notes()5. The best tile of the story should be ________.A. Summer CoursesB. Family BusinessC. Students Learn from BargainsD. Cousins Work with Vegetables12Buying Is Doing?How important is shopping to you? How much time do you spend buying things? And how much time do you spend organizing these things in your home? In the future, how much time will you spend in movie theaters, at amusement parks, at shopping malls, or at convenience stores? When you add it all up, you will probably see you spend a lot of your life consuming(消费)things. Consuming products is not necessarily bad. However, if we spend too much time doing it, we should look at it carefully.Imagine that you have a week off from school. You don't have to go to class. However, in this week, you cannot spend any money—no shopping, no movies, no eating out. How would you spend your time?What things would bring you happiness? Perhaps you would take a walk with your best friend. Perhaps you would help a child read. Or you might spend time with your family.When we look back, it is likely that non-consuming experiences like these will be our most important memories. Why? Non-consuming activities are active, not passive. They don't come in a package. You make the experience yourself. For example, when you have a conversation with a friend, you are actively creating an experience. The conversation that you have with your friend cannot be experienced or recreated by anyone else.

第3章实战演练--Section III 科学小品篇【科学小品篇】--1Researchers (研究者) have announced (宣布) the result of two studies on the health effects of the drug aspirin (阿斯匹林). One study shows aspirin can sharply reduce the chance that a healthy, older man will suffer from a heart attack (心脏病).The study offered two new results from earlier findings. It said taking one aspirin pill every other day helped only healthy men over the age of fifty. It also said aspirin gave the greatest protection against heart attacks to men with low blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels.Earlier in the United States began a major aspirin study in the early 1980s. It included 22,000 healthy men doctors. All were between the ages of forty and eighty-four. More than 11,000 of the doctors took a harmless pill that contained no drug. The men did not know which kind of pill they were taking.The doctors who took aspirin suffered 44% fewer heart attacks than those taking the harmless pill. 139 men who took aspirin suffered from heart attacks. Ten of them died. 239 men who did not take aspirin suffered from heart attacks. Twenty-six of them died.The researchers said the doctors’ study provides cl ear proof that taking aspirin can prevent a first heart attack in healthy, older men. They said, however, the result does not mean every man over the age of fifty should take aspirin. They said aspirin couldn’t help men who do not eat healthy foods, who smoke cigarettes and who are fat. The researchers said men who think they would be helped by taking aspirin should talk with their doctors first.1.The passage tells us that the new use of aspirin is ______.A.to treat heart diseaseB. to reduce pain while one suffers from a heart attackC. to help old people to be more healthyD. to reduce the chance of a heart attack in old men2.Aspirin can help those who ______.A work as doctors B. are under 40 years oldC. are fat and smoke cigarettesD. are older and healthy3.At last the researchers advised us to take aspirin ______.A.with careB. as much as we likeC. every dayD. only considering the age4.From the experiment we can conclude that about _____ of people who suffered from heart attacks without aspirin died.A. 7%B. 11%C. 19%D. 44%【答案与解析】本文介绍了科学家对阿斯匹林的研究成果。

中山市中考英语英语阅读理解(含答案)一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷1.阅读理解After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症).When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming(克服)difficulties and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Clearly, he knew what he was talking about. He didn't mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming difficulties than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You won that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthew's parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don't have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I'm a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.Your friend,Matthew(1)The underlined part in Paragraph 3 “Why me?” probably means .A. Why do you come to see me?B. Why do I have to stay at home?C. Why does the disease fall on me?D. Why give a gold medal to me?(2)Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Matthew knew clearly about his illness.B. Matthew once got his own gold medal.C. Matthew thanked Rick for his kindness.D. Matthew lived happily and brightly all his life.(3)Rick wrote the passage with the purpose of .A. expressing his pity to all the disabled childrenB. telling an experience of meeting a disabled childC. describing his unusual friendship with a disabled childD. showing his admiration towards the disabled child【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)D【解析】【分析】作者作为奥运冠军被邀请去见一个患肌肉萎缩症的孩子,这个孩子很积极乐观,认为自己能够获得奥运冠军。
他用他的乐观诠释了生命的价值。
说明他虽然残疾,不能得到奥运冠军,但是他的意志品质坚强,是个真正的冠军。
(1)C细节推理题。
根据后面的句子“He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams.”说明他只是谈论了获胜以及成功的梦想,从来没有抱怨为什么是他患了这样的疾病,为什么是他如此的不幸,故C正确。
(2)B细节判断题。
根据短文中的句子“I told you someday that I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that.”可知,马修并没有获得过自己的金牌。
故答案B错误。
(3)D主旨大意题。
本文主要向大家介绍了一个身残志坚、积极乐观的小男孩。
作者很钦佩Matthew的那种身残志坚、积极与病魔作斗争的精神,故答案为D。
2.阅读理解There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away. The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son disagreed, he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the tree's life.He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are - and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life - can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall. Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
