2020年中考英语阅读理解、完形填空试题及答案It’s hard not to tell anyone that you’re feeling bad. If you keep these feelings inside and don’t talk it with others, it can even make you feel sick!But if you talk with someone and he / she cares a lot for you, like your mom or dad, you may feel better. But if you don’t want to talk with your mom or dad, what should you do? It’s better to find another trusted (信任的) adult, like a teacher at school. Maybe this person can help you talk with your mom and dad about your problems.Once you know who you can talk to, you should pick a time and place to talk. If you think it’s difficult for you to say what you think, write it down on a piece of paper. If the pe rson can’t understand what you mean right away, try to say it in a different way or give an example. Some kids may feel shy about sharing their feelings. They should know a kid doesn’t have to share every feeling he or she has. But it is important to share feelings when he / she needs help.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

BCDBDPeople of long ago used to live in groups in caves or in jungles. They wandered from place to place hunting animals and looking for food like nuts, roots and wild fruits.Then later people began to settle along or near rivers. They used the river water for drinking, cooking and washing. Their animals also drank from these rivers.The rivers were full of fish. Birds also lived and laid their eggs near rivers. The people caught the fish, collected the birds' eggs and trapped the birds as food.Rivers also made good farmland for these early river settlers during the yearly flood. Rivers carried along with them river mud which was very fertile(肥沃的). This fertile soil was left behind after each flood. Thus river banks or valleys were suitable places for farming. The people started to cultivate their own crops. This means they could settle down in one place.Besides the fertile soil, rivers were also used as a form of highway. Men began to use rafts and boats as a form of transport to carry their extra food. They sailed to another part of the river to trade with the other settlers. So they became farmers as well as trades. When they began to travel up and down the rivers, they learned about the customs and beliefs of the other settlers.As trade and transportation(交通) grew, the population also grew. These river settlements(定居点) grew into cities, and these cities became centers of great civilizations like those found in early Egypt, India and China. These civilizations had powerful governments with many laws. Then these cities grew into some of the important and powerful countries in the world.( )1.

I think it is great to help animals when they are sick.What I liked most was what you said about helping bigger farm animals. You are brave to take care of large animals like horses. I think it would be a little scary（提心吊胆的）to be close to a big animal.I think I would like to be a vet when I grow up. I like to help animals. Last year, I found a dog that did not have a home. I tried to find the owner but couldn’t. The dog was sick and wouldn’t eat any food or drink any water.I took him to a vet. The vet showed me how to take care of a dog.After we returned home, I did as what the pet told me. In just a few days, the dog began to eat and run around.I wanted to write to you and thank you for talking to our class. I think we all learned a lot about helping animals that is sick. Maybe when I am older, I won’t be afraid to help horses! Then I can be a vet just like you.Your friendMichael Cessna ( )1. A. hobby B. job C. name D. interest( )2.

One morning, Rachel and John were very 1 when they received a message from a website. It said thanks to them for 2 a pink Nissan car. Rachel told the reporter, “We couldn’t understand what was happening. Neither of us 3 anything on the Internet.”The couple checked online, 4 found that it was true. They had bought a pink car for ￡8,999. But who had done it? There must be 5 wrong.They understood everything when their son, Jack, woke up 6 next morning and told his parents, “I bought a car online, Mum and Dad!”“We could hardly believe his words,” Rachel said, “because he’s only three years old. We 7 imagined that he could carry out the deal successfully online.”Then John made a phone call to the dealer and explained to 8 what had happened. “Well, we’ll stop the deal, 9 it is not good news for us,” said the dealer. “But we all have children and they do silly things at times, so there is no problem.”Rachel thought she probably had left her password in her computer, and that had given Jack the chance 10 the deal.( )1.

As I passed by, I saw a bicycle, a car with a broken window and a man lying on the road.. since no policemen or doctors had arrived, I made the decision to go to help. There was a first-aid bag in my car. I took it to the scene of the accident. The man was awake, but he couldn’t move. I checked him for any serious wound because he said that his back walk killing him. My medical training and my time spent working as a volunteer in the earthquake and made it possible for me to stabilize him until the doctors arrived.We should be ready to give first aid to people when necessary. This is especially true for those who have some medical training. The man was lucky because he only had some small injuries. If he was seriously injured, I would have shad to use more of my knowledge in order to look after him until he was taken to the hospital.Have you ever asked yourself why some people are very successful, while others are not? The answer to this question is very simple.People who have achieved great success in life have been working hardly enough to reach success. They have faced many problems on that journey and suffered a lot. However, they are optimistic about achieving success and they believe that, at the end of the road, they will get what they want.CDCBD AABCDWould you like to climb up the side of a tall building like Spider-Man? In a few years you may be able to do this. Scientists are trying to make a type of tape that may let humans climb walls. These scientists say that people will be able to put on tape-covered gloves and socks and then hang upside down!Scientists got the idea for the tape by studying small lizards called geckos. Geckos can stick to any surface. They can even hang upside down by a toe. For a long time scientists did not know how geckos could do these things.Some people surmised that geckos had tiny suction cups on their feet. But scientists learned something different. Scientists learned that the gecko’s feet are sticky because of millions of tiny hairs called setae. These hairs are on the gecko’s toes. Each hair acts like a magnet when the gecko is walking.Scientists studied the tiny hairs of the gecko foot. Then the scientists made a new kind of tape. They did this by making very small plastic hairs. They stuck the hair to a flat surface. This tape is both sticky and strong. But the tape becomes less sticky after a while. The tape also costs a lot to make.Until scientists find a better way to make the tape, it is not likely to be used by many people.Scientists think that people will be able to use gecko tape in many ways. It could be used to make tires that grip had roads and robots that can climb walls. It might also be used to hold skin together after surgery.Scientists are very excited about how this tape can be used. Gecko tape may become another invention that uses ideas from nature to help improve people’s lives.( )1. Why does the author talk about Spider-man in paragraph 12?A. To help the reader understand how sticky the tape is.B. To explain to the reader how the scientists think.C. To get the reader to try something new.D. To tell the reader more interesting story about Spider-man.( )2. Which sentence best shows how important the gecko tape could be?A. Until scientists find a better way to make the tape, it is not likely to be used by many people.B. Scientists are very excited about how this tape can be used.C. Scientists got the idea for the tape by studying small lizards called geckosD. Scientists think that people will be able to use gecko tape in many ways.( )3. What does the underlined word surmised mean?A. 猜想B. 试验C. 证实D. 推翻( )4. Which of the following sentences belongs in the empty circle?A. Has tiny hairs made of plastic.B. Has hairs on its toes that act like a magnet.C. Has helped scientists make a new type of tape.D. Has something that make scientist satisfied.( )5. This passage mainly tells us ____A. the living habit of geckosB. an imagination scientists get from geckosC. some new kind of inventionsD. some inventions scientists got idea from nature A surprise for the governorAt the beginning of school on Friday, Mr. López announced that Governor Redding would visit the classroom on Monday. The governor wanted to honor the students in Mr. López’s class because they had read so many books over summer vacation.Mr. López chose Mark, Nicole, and Kim-Zu to plan a program for the governor. Nicole suggested that they present the governor with a list of all the books they had read.Mark felt it would take too long. He suggested a short play instead. The class could vote on its favorite book and then act out one of the scenes. Mark believed the governor would enjoy seeing the students bring a book to life.Kim-Zu said there was not enough time to prepare for Mark’s program. She thought the best idea was to choose one or two students to talk about the value of reading. Then they could have a reception. They could visit with the governor in a relaxed setting and enjoy cookies and punch. Kim-Zu liked the idea of talking about books and eating at the same time!“Let’s vote on the best program,” Mark said.But Mark, Kim-Zu, and Nicole each voted for their own idea.Then Nicole snapped her fingers. “I’ve got it!”She suggested that they combine all three ideas. Students would wear outfits on Monday representing characters from their favorite books. Mr. López would have a list on the board of all the books they had read. Two students would present a talk to convey the joys of reading. Then everyone would eat!Everyone in the class liked Nicole’s plan.

All living things must have water to survive. Without water, your body would stop working. Water makes up more than half of your body weight.A person can’t survive for more than a few days without it. Why? Your body has lots of important jobs and it needs water to do many of them. For instance,your blood, which contains a lot of water, carries oxygen to all the cells of your body. Without oxygen your body would stop working.Your body doesn’t get water only from drinking water. But wa ter and milk are the best choices. Other sports drinks, soda, pop, or a fruit-flavored drink,are not good for every day. Why? They have a lot of sugar, which means a lot of calories. But water has no calories! These sweet drinks also may lack the vitamins and minerals found in milk. Lots of foods contain water. Fruit and vegetables contain water, too.Since water is so important, you might wonder if you’re drinking enough. In fact, we can’t tell how much water that kids need to drink every day. Usually, kids like to drink something with meals and should certainly drink when theyare thirsty. But when it’s warm or you’re having exercise, you’ll need more. Be sure to drink some extra water when you’re out in warm weather, especially while playing sports.When you drink is also important.

He was a new player in 2009, and had already served the New York Jets. One day, the football team called him to be back again. But Fitzhugh refused.“I know it would be a good chance,” Fitzhugh said. “But you only get one mom and one dad. I’d rather be there for my parent s than go for a super star chance.”Fitzhugh knows that his time with the Jets could last as little as a few weeks. Though he loves football, supporting his family is more important to him. He was unemployed by Jets for months after his last time on the football field. Now he has a steady job as a railway conductor which his parents hope him to have. He lives with his family and helps to support his mother and father.The family is close-especially since the death of Fitzhugh’s younger sister. She died from the West Nile Virus at the age of 14, just as Fitzhugh was starting college.“That’s why I’m so strong about being around family now,” Fitzhugh said. “Life is short. You never know what will happen. When I was unemployed, my family was there for me. I don’t want to take a risk. I don’t want to lose anything more important for my family again.” For this football player, family comes first.。
