阅读理解音乐与椅子
Do you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”？It is ea sy to play and most people enjoy it. All you need are some chairs，some people and some way of making music. You may use a piano or any other musical instrument，if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. You can even use a radio.
Put the chairs in a row. The chairs may be put in twos，back to back. A better way is to have th e chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite direction to the chair next to it.
The game is easy. When the music starts，the players walk round the chairs. Everyone goes in the same direction，of course，they should walk in time to the music. If the music is fast they should walk quickly. If the music is slow，they should walk slowly.
The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. When the music stops，the players try to sit on the chair s.If a person cannot find a chair to sit on，he drops out. Then，before the music starts again，one chair must be taken away. When the music stops again，one more player will be out.
At last，there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.

阅读理解不一样的平安夜
Christmas Eve means a warm get-together with friends，a candlelight dinner，or perhaps a celebration at a pub（酒馆）for students. But，for Cai Yingjie，the night has a different meaning：helping beggars（乞丐）and the homeless（people without homes）。
Cai，who is a student in journalism at Tsinghua，could be found at Beijing‘s Wudaokou Light Railway Station that special evening. When she saw an old beggar，she took the cold，rough hands of the woman with her warm，clean hands，and gave the woman some warm bread and helped her put on a pair of new gloves（手套）。
The woman was surprised for a few seconds，then burst into tears，saying “for the first time I feel respected（尊重）”。
Cai s aid，“A beggar‘s life is very hard. That’s why I want to help them.”
Cai was one of 14 Tsinghua students spending Christmas Eve among the poor. They walked in the cold wind along the streets from 4 to 7 pm on Friday，visiting 15 beggars in Beijing‘s Haidian District.
They brought bread and gloves with them，and stopped to greet beggars and offer them some of the warm food. Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise.
“I know the activity can‘t help much，but it’s meant to show our respect and care for beggars and the homeless who have been neglected for so long，”said Sun，head of the group. “And Christmas is a good ti me for that.”

阅读理解火中自救小知识
What are you going to do if you are in a burning house？How will you escape？Do you know how to save yourself？Please read the following passage.
Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save you life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family，such as stairways and fire escapes，but not lifts.
From the lower fl oors of the buildings，escaping through windows is possible，learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average（平均高度的）person，hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course，it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leaked（渗）into the room.
On a second or third floor，the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement（水泥）might end in injury. Bushes（灌木丛）and grass can help to break a fall.

阅读理解节约用水
Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana（加纳），Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning，she leaves home at half past f ive to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily（日常）cooking and drinking. She
has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can‘t get enough clean water t o keep healthy.
Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days，we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource（自然资源）on the earth.
Water covers 70% of the earth‘s surface（表面）。But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth‘s surface.
You probably feel lucky that your life isn‘t as hard as Napoga’s. But that doesn‘t mean you don’t have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars，factories，farms and homes make our rivers，lakes，and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish，too. Now，34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.
How do cars and factories make our water dirty？First，they pollute the air. Then，when it rains，the rain water c omes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain，called acid rain （酸雨），is also bad for plants，animals and buildings.
Scientists say that in 30 years，more than half of the people in the world won‘t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water：
●Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liters（升）each month.
●Leaky taps（漏水的龙头）waste a lot of water. Fix them right away！
●You can easily cut your 10-minute showers（沐浴）in half—and you‘ll be just as clean.
●When you wash dishes，don‘t let the water run.
●Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isn‘t full，you’re wasting water！
◆根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。
1. Every morning Napoga went to get clean water _______.
A. before she wen t to school
B. after she finished school
C without going to school D. after she played with her friends
2. On the earth，_______.
A. sea water is widely used than fresh water
B. there is very little water for our living
C. there is 71% of fresh water
D. we don‘t need to worry about water
3. Acid rain _______.
A. is only bad for living things
B. can be produ ced in factories
C. doesn‘t do harm to people，but it’s bad for plants，animals and buildings
D. doesn‘t just do harm to human beings but to ani-mals，plants and buildings
4. Which of the following wastes water？
A. We need ten minutes if we want a clean shower.
B. We should put in enough clothes when we wash them in washing machines.
C. You can keep yourself clean by having a shower for five minutes.
D. Don‘t let the water run when we brush our teeth and wash dishes.
5. What‘s the main idea of the passage？
A. Something must be done to prevent water form be-ing polluted.
B. Clean water means much to human beings and living things around us.
C. It‘s time to take care of the water we use.
D. Water is the most important natural resource on the earth.
「答案与解析」
1. 选C.从第1段中的句子She has no time to go to school可知，她根本没有去上学。故选C.
2. 选B.短文第3段中介绍了全球70%被水覆盖，但只有1%才是饮用淡水。而世界上的很多国家和地区都缺水。所以选B项，即我们的生活用水很少。
3. 选D.由第5段中的句子Dirty rain，called acid rain，is also bad for plants animals and buildings.可知，acid rain（酸雨）的危害很大。故答案选D.
4.选A.A选项与C选项相互矛盾，则必有一个为正确选项。而从第3点建议（advice）可知，你可以沐浴只须五分钟来节约用水，若用10分钟则是浪费水。故选A.
5. 选C.读完全文我们知道地球上的水资源有限，所以大家都要节约用水。故选C.
阅读理解她用爱创造奇迹
An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.
When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother，“Only a mi racle can save h im now，”the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.
She hurried to a drugstore （药店）with the money in her hand.
“And what do you want？”asked the salesman. “It‘s for my little brother，”the girl answered. “He’s really，really sick and I want to buy a miracle.”“Pardon？”said the salesman.
“My brother Andrew has something bad growing in-side his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost？”“We don‘t sell a miracle here，child. I’m sorry，”the salesman said with a smile.
“Listen，if it isn‘t enough，I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”
A well-dressed man heard it and asked，“What kind of a miracle does your brother need？”“I don‘t know，”she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an opera-tion. But my daddy can‘t pay for it，so I have brought all my money.”
“How much do you have？”asked the man. “$ 1.11，but I can t ry and get some more，”she
answered.
“Well，what luck，”smiled the man. “$ 1.11，the price of a miracle for little brothers.”
He took up the girl‘s hand and said，“Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”
That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong， a famous doctor. The operation was successful and it wasn‘t long before Andrew was home again.
How much did the miracle cost？
◆根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。
1. What was the trouble in the little girl‘s family？
A. Her brother was seriously ill.
B. They had no money.
C. Nothing could save her brother.
D. Both A and B.
2. In the eye of the little girl，a miracle might be _______.
A. something interesting
B. something beautiful
C. some wonderful medicine
D. some good food
3. The little girl said again and again “……I can try and get some m ore.”That shows _______.
A. she had still kept some money
B. she hoped not to be refused
C. There was no need to worry about money
D. she thought money was easy to get
4. What made the miracle happen？
A. The girl‘s love for her brother.
B. The girl’s money.
C. The medicine from the drugstore.
D. Nobody can tell.
5. From the passage we can infer （推断）that _______.
A. The doctor didn‘t ask for any pay
B. A miracle is sure to happen if you keep on
C. The little girl is lovely but not so clever
D. Andrew was in fact not so sick as they h ad thought
「答案与解析」
1. 选D.根据第1段中的All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money可知答案。
2. 选C.由于这个小女孩的家很穷，而她的兄弟又病得那样重，所以她的父亲说Only a miracle can save him now，小女孩听了之后便翻出她所有的“积蓄”去药店购买miracle，由此可见，小女孩可能认为miracle是一种什么很神奇的药。注：miracle的实际意思是“奇迹”，Only a miracle can save him now的意思是“只有出现奇迹才可能救得了他”。
3. 选B.根据上下文语境，I can try and get some more 后其实省略了money一词，句意为“我会想办法弄更多钱来的”。因为小女孩担心自己的钱不够而买不到miracle，所以反复对药店老板和那位穿着讲究的人说这句话，其意思显然是希望自己不遭到拒绝。
4.选A.根据文章内容，用排除法可知只有选项A最佳。即是这个小女孩对其兄弟的爱感动了著名医生Carlton A rmstrong先生，从而出现“奇迹”，使她的兄弟获救。
5.选A.因为这个小女孩的家很穷，就是因为支付不起昂贵的医疗费才会有奇迹一说，而最后小女孩的兄弟确实是康复了，显然医生并没有要求他们家支付医疗费。
阅读理解浪费可耻
Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask fo r more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don‘t agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of p roblems. Although China is rich in some reso urces（资源），we are short of（缺乏）others，for example，fresh water（淡水）。It is reported that we will have no coal （煤）or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources，what can we use in the future and where can we move？Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life，we can do many things to prevent waste from happening，for example，turn off the water taps（水龙头）when we finish washing，turn off the lights when we leave the classroom，try not to order more food than we need，and so on. Little by little，everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day，if we do our best.

In one way, it may be thought that failure （失败）is a part of life. In another, failure may be regarded as a step towards success.
The "spider-story" is often told as an example of this. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a hole on a hill from the English. He watched a spider(蜘蛛) making a web. Bruce is said to have got confidence from this and to have gone on to beat the English. Edison, too, the inventor of the light bulb(电灯泡) , made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were you in high spirit then? What can you change so that things will go right the next time?
Second, is the goal(目标) you are trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question: "If I am successful in this, where will it get me?" This may help to prevent failure in the things you shouldn't be doing anyway.
The third thing to remember about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to "live with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, "You can't win them all. “
56.Robert Bruce was mentioned in the passage to show that .
A. people who fail are not lonely
B. animals can help people sometimes
C. nature will help us if we are hard-working
D. confidence is important for one to be successful
57.Edison's example shows us that
A. he liked to do other kinds of work
B. he invented many kinds of light bulbs
C. failure may be a way towards success
D. he was a man of many important inventions
58.If you are not sure about what success will get you, you'd better .
A. change your goal
B. go on with your goal
C. not care for that
D. work even harder on your goal
59.It can be learned from the passage that .

60.This passage is mainly about .

Table Manners In America
Don’t circle your plate with your arms. If you do so, you will become the focus（焦点）of the table. Everyone would wonder, “Is there anything wrong with the food?”This may give a wrong message that you don’t like the food or something like that.
Don’t push the plate back when finished. Leave it where it was. Do you want to let the hostess （女主人）know that you’ve just done a labour?
Don’t lean（倚靠）back and say“ I’m through” or“ I’m full”. Just put the fork and knife across the plate. That’s all.
Don’t cut up everything before you start to eat. Cut only one or two bites （块）at a time.
Never take a huge mouthful of anything. Do yo u want to show how hungry you are? Don’t do that. It’s not so good.
It’s never good to reach across the table for anything. If the thing you want is not at hand, simply ask the nearest person for help, like“Mrs. Smith, could you pass me the dish?”

Two people sit down to play Go(围棋). One of the play ers is an old man. He is now 89 years old. He has spent all of his life playing this game. The other person is a young woman. She has been playing Go fo r only thre e years. Bef ore this, the woman was an expert(专家) at playing computer games. Now she plays Go the same way she played computer games－by becoming a machine herself.
They will play many games, until they know who the winner is. The woman shows no feelings but thinking about all the possible ways of placing her next stone. The old man, on the other hand, looks at the movements of her hands and of her face. This has always helped him to win.
He wins the first three games. She wins the next game, and the man is surprised. He has never lost to a woman. The old man worries about the way the young woman is playing the game. He can't read her face; he does not understand her way of playing.
"The way I think about the game" says the woman, "is that it is steps for getting what I want." Again, the old man is surprised. For him, the game is a way of life itself, and not a model of life.
"There is no more beauty any longer. Everything is science and rules. Everything is about winning. Nothing is about playing" he says.
They cannot agree with each other; but it is not necessary.
"Change is a necessary part of life" thinks the man.
"Playing is as important as winning" thinks the woman.
They start to play their final game.

初中英语阅读理解练习题及解析 一、阅读理解 1．根据短文内容出选择正确答案。 A A farmer had a brother in town who was a gardener, and his brother had a garden full of the finest fruit trees. So his skill and his beautiful trees were famous everywhere. One day the farmer went into the town to visit his brother, and was surprised at the trees that grew quite well. "Look, my brother," said the gardener. "I will give you an apple tree, the best from my garden, and you, and your children, and your children's children will enjoy it." Then the gardener called his workmen and ordered them to take up the tree and carry it to his brother's farm. They did so, and the next morning the farmer began to wonder where he should plant it. "If I plant it on the hill," he said to himself, "the wind might catch it and shake down the delicious fruit before it is ripe. If I plant it close to the road, passersby will see it and take away the apples--but if I plant it too near the door of my house, my children may pick the fruit." So, after he had thought the matter over, he planted the tree behind his barn （谷仓）. Time passed, but the tree had no fruit the first year, nor the second-then the farmer called his brother. When the gardener came, the farmer said angrily, "You have cheated me, and given me a useless tree instead of a fruitful one. This is the third year and still it brings out nothing but leaves! " The gardener laughed and said, "See where the tree was planted, it has no sun or warmth. How could you expect flowers and fruit?" （1）From the passage, we can see the farmer planted the apple tree A. behind his barn B. on the hill C. close to the road D. near his house （2）The underlined word "ripe" means "__________" in Chinese.

2020初三英语阅读理解及答案 下面有一篇文章，希望同学们用10分钟将此题做完，然后对照讲解找到准确的答案。 Passage 1 If you look at the sky one night and see something moving and shining that you have never seen before, it might be a comet (彗星). A comet sometimes looks like a star. Like a planet, a comet has no light of its own. It shines from the sunlight it reflects (反射). Like the earth, a comet goes round the sun, but on a much longer path (轨道) than the earth travels. If a comet isn’t a sta r, what is it then? Some scientists think that a large part of a comet is water frozen into pieces of ice and mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock. When sunshine melts (融化) the ice in the comet, great clouds of gas go trailing after it. These clouds, together with the dust, form a long tail. Many people perhaps have seen a comet. However no one knows how many comets there are. There may be millions of comets, but only a few come close enough for us to see. An Englishman named Edmund Halley, who lived from 1656 to 1742, found out a lot about the paths that comets take through the sky. Some comets move out of our sight and never come back. Others keep coming back at regular times. A big comet that keeps coming back was named after Halley because
初中英语阅读理解和完形填空解题技巧及练习
一．初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧 阅读理解也是中考英语题的必考题目之一，本题型旨在考查学生阅读，理解的能力，几年来，中考英语题中的阅读理解材料新，题材丰富，考查学生综合推断能力，根据语篇猜单词意思的能力的力度加大，也考查学生关注细节的能力。所以学生往往要么没能正确理解语篇中某些句子的意思，在细节题上丢分，要么就是对语篇的整体把握不够，在综合题或者推断题方面丢分。那么到底怎么做好阅读理解这一题型呢？我将从以下三个方面谈论这个问题： 一、解题思路 （一）先读问题，弄清考查要点，以便能带着问题看文章，这样会心中有数，有的放矢。在读题的时候划出题目的关键词。 （二）快速浏览全文，掌握全貌，注意发现与问题有关的信息，如果时间紧，至少要扫视一下起首段和尾段。再把标题和文章内容结合起来想一想，这样全文大意便清楚了。此时，不要忙于答题。 （三）细读原文，捕捉相关信息词，掌握短文细节内容。这是解题的关键，应特别注意以下几点： 1．抓住四个"W"和一个"H"，就是边读边用铅笔做些标记，把What (事件)，When （时间），Where（地点），Why（原因），How（经过）划出来。抓住了四个“W”和一个“H”，就抓住了文章的全貌，一些直接性的问题便可解决。 2．抓住连接词及起关键作用的副词、代词、介词、插入语等。因为这些词具有因果，让步，递进，转折，指代，列举及承上启下等各种连接上下文的特殊功能。这对考生分清文章层次，辨明各种关系，了解人物心理，推断作者意图，进行逻辑推理等手段来分析难点，都具有举足轻重的作用。 3．注意领会文章的寓意。 4．根据题意，初选答案。这一步须仔细审题，领会测试要求，确定解题方法。对那些明显的，有把握的题可以断然确定，不必把其余三个答案再作推敲而浪费时间：有些略难的题，应再查阅短文（不是重读一遍），迅速找出依据，予以排除。常用的解题方法有如下几种： ①直接解题法。即从原文中直接找出答案。 ②归纳解题法。对于不能从原文中直接找出答案的可在把握全文中心和线索的前题下进行概括、归纳得出正确答案。 ③综合推理法。读者需统观全文，认真分析，综合推理及至计算，最后归纳出正确答案。 题干中有"suggest, conclude, conclusion, probably, reason, because, according to“等字眼时，属于推断概括型，考查内容着眼于全篇，考生应具备一定的分析归纳，推理等逻辑思维能力。 ④捕捉关键词。在阅读时应该注意与问题相关的同义词，近义词，反义词或同位词等信息词来得出正确答案。

初中英语阅读理解解题技巧及经典练习 英语阅读理解一直都是中考的重点复习对象。原因它在中考中的分数占总分的比重最大。为此，我总结了一些初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧和一些经典的练习题。初中英语理解要提高有两个方面，1. 考前阅读准备。2. 临场解题技巧。 1. 考前阅读准备 一、要注意养成良好的阅读心理，阅读时要去掉杂念，心绪要安定，精神要专一，要形成一种惬意的顺向心理。切不可一遇到几个生词难句，就心烦意乱，失去自控能力。心理学家告诉我们，任何恐慌，过分紧张的情绪都会形成一种消极因素妨碍大脑的正常思维功能。因此，遇到困难一定要从容不迫，心无旁骛。这样才能对所读的文章印象清晰，理解深刻。 二、要提高视读的速度，考阅读理解，从另一个方面来说，考的是考试速度。因此做阅读理解时，要注意培养自己快速阅读的习惯。切不可在个别难懂的词句上磨蹭，只要全篇理解了，个别难懂的词句可以根据上下文和构词法去猜测，去推断。 2. 临场解题技巧 1. 审视标题，抓住中心 试题中有的文章有标题，有的没有，拟题人是有所考虑的。标题是文章主题的高度凝聚。它能给我们启发和想象，想象文章的内容和走向。这样做有利于对文章的理解，能提高做题的效率。 2. 浏览全文，掌握全貌 如果时间紧，至少要快速通读全文，尤其是首两段。再把标题和文章内容结合起来，这样全文的梗概便一目了然了。 3. 细读题目，抓住要点
对整篇短文内容有了一定的了解后，要马上看短文后的问题，带着问题去选择或判断答案。要确定所需查找的信息范围，并注意所查找信息的特点。例如：如果问题或选项涉及到人名、地名，就应该找首字母大写的单词；如果问题或选项涉及时间、日期、数字，就应该寻找具体的数据。另外还要注意试题难易，应暂时绕开那些少数较难的题目，先做最有把握、最熟悉的题目，也就是该类题可以直接或间接从文章中找到的。而对于那些要通过对文章归纳判断、逻辑推理的题目，需要再对全文快速阅读，仔细分析思考，反复比较、推敲选出正确答案。若文章短可先读短文，后看文后题目；如果文章太长，你可以先把文章后面的问题看一遍，带着问题去看文章。这样可以帮助你去掉杂念，提高阅读速度和解题的正确性。要善于找关键句，特别要注意文章的第一段和最后一段的头一句话，往往就是关键句，可以帮助你掌握文章的全貌，理解文章的主题。此外，还应该细读文章，因为有时的试题是考细节。可以边读边用铅笔做点标记，把有关的画出来。凡逢人物就圈起来，看完一数，有几个圈就是几个人，一目了然。 4. 细读文章，掌握细节 这次应细品，不可一晃而过。可边读边用铅笔做些记录，把有关的人物、事件、时间、地点、起因（即五个W ：who ， what， when， where， why）划出来。经过这样的处理，你对文章的内容和细节便会胸有成竹，对事态的发生、发展和解决有了更加深入的了解。 5. 理解大意，初选答案 一般短文都设有五个题目，对那些表层理解的题目可以断然选定。对那些深层理解的题目，应再查阅原文，但决不是简单重读，应找出依据，把所答案代入文中，再确定正误。在确定答案时，对文章和题中的词语应结合上下文思考其确切意思，切忌望文生义，作出错误的判断。 6. 复读全文，核对答案
