2009年中考英语阅读理解试题汇编3含答案2009年中考英语阅读理解试题汇编3含答案COne night I was sitting in my room half-listening as my 15-year-old brother T ommy fought with 12-year-old brother Kevin. I didn’t pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the hurt on his face.About 20 minutes later, as I walking upstairs I heard Kevin crying inside the bathroom. I knocked on the door and asked, “Hey Kevin, do you want to talk?”No answer.I tried again, “ Way don’t you come out of there?”Again, no answer.So, joking around, I grabbed a stack of (一摞)cards and a pencil and wrote, “If you don’t want to talk, we can write notes to each other.”An hour later I was still sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of cards in front of me. One was blank and one was cards from Kevin on which he had translated all his yucky feelings into words for me. As I read one of Kevin notes, tears came to my eyes. It said, “Nobody in this family cares about me. I’m not the youngest, and I’m not the oldest. Tommy thinks I’m silly and Dad wishes he had the other K evin as a kid because he’s better at basketball. And you’re never around to even notice me.”Tears came to my eyes as I wrote back to him. “Y ou know Kevin, I really do love you and I’m sorry I don’t always show it.I am here for you and you are loved in this family.”There was no answer for a while, but then I heard a tearingsound coming from inside the bathroom. Kevin, who had run out of cards wrote on a tor n paper cup, “ Thanks.”I wrote back “ For what?” It returned to me with “Loving me” on it.Since then, I try my best to never only half-notice my family members any more. Kevin and I have a closer relationship now. And sometimes when one of us notices that the other is upset, we’ll smile and say “ Write it on a paper cup.”56. Why did Kevin stay inside the bathroom alone crying?A. The writer didn’t help him beat T ommy.B. He felt no love from the family members.C. He hurt himself when rushing up the stairs.57. The underlined word “ yucky” most probably means_______.A. terribleB. excitingC. amazing58. What could be the reason that Kevin’s Dad doesn’t like him?A. Kevin is not as clever as his brother.B.

It’s very different from what I learned at school! Students in my group are from different cities of Britain and their dialects (方言) are different too! Some of their accents (口音) are quite strong and they also have their own words and expressions.But it’s not the language that’s different and surprising. Before I came to England I had thought that fish and chips were eaten every day. That’squite wrong! I get rather mad now when I hear all the foolish words about typical (典型的) English food.I had expected to see “London fog”. Do you remember our texts about it We had no idea that most o f this ‘thick fog’ disappeared many years ago when people stopped using coal in their homes. But the idea to speak about the weather was very helpful. The weather in London is really changeable.On the other hand habits are different. People tell me what is typically British here in London is not always typical in Wales or Scotland. Local habits and traditions are not the same as what we knew.But what is ordinary for all British is that they follow traditions. Probably Britain has more living signs of its past than many other countries. And people have always been proud of having ancient buildings in capitals, big cities and the countryside.I will tell you more about Britain in my other letters.Love from Britain,Pete41. What does Pete feel about the English languageA. At first it was difficult for him to understand people.B. He can understand different dialects and accents.C. He can speak English better than others.D. People can’t understand his English.42. Typical English food _______.A. makes people madB. can’t be seen nowC. is always fish and chipsD. is not what he knew43. The British people like to talk about weather because ________.A. there is thick fog in LondonB. they like the weather in BritainC. the weather changes a lotD. it can be helpful44. What do you know about habits in Britain from the passageA. They are not the same in different parts of Britain.B. Habits in Wales and Scotland are typically British.C. There are no typical British habits in Britain.D. All that is typically British is in London.45. Which is NOT true according to the passageA. What he’s seen is quite different from what he’d learnedB. British people like to follow traditions.C. Pete had learned about Britain before.D. Pete doesn’t like his life in B ritain.(B)I’m confused these days. We are taught at home and at school that using violence (暴力) is the least civilized (文明的) way to solve problems. For example, last week I thought about hitting my friend for winning a beautiful shell while we were playing at the beach. I talked with him instead and we came to an agreement. If two adults had a disagreement, and if they used violence towards each other in order to win, is it all rightWhen two countries disagree, they often fight a war. Why is using violence not okay at home, at school, or in your country but okay between countries So many people have been killed because of wars, not only soldiers but ordinary people, even small children and babies. And refugees (难民) exist, too.A war is a great violence, like two people fighting over a shell, just much bigger. Adults say they are fighting wars in order to solve problems and make peace. But can you really “make peace” by killing so many pe ople I don’t think bombs (炸弹) can reach people’s hearts and change them. Bombs can’t create love and caring, and that’s what we need in the world. Why do adults use violence so quickly Why can’t they use their wisdom (智慧) and talk it overAdults might say that things are not that easy. But they are the ones that teach us to be kind, not to hurt people, and not to kill. Why don’t they act as what they say---A page from a 12-tear-old boy, Joshua’s diary.46. At the beach, Joshua ________.A. hit his friendB. won a beautiful shellC. played with a beautiful shellD. came to an agreement with his friend47. Joshua hates wars between countries because ________.A. he is afraid of warsB. he doesn’t understand adultsC. wars create death and refugeesD. wars are not the only way to make peace48. What’s the key to peace in Joshua’s opinionA. Love and care for each other.B. Don’t use violence so quickly.C. Stop using bombs in wars.D. Don’t hurt or kill people in wars.49. From the reading we can see Joshua wants adults to ________.A. learn from childrenB. be children’s modelsC. be kind to childrenD. teach children how to solve problems50. Choose the best title (标题) for the passage.A. Adults and WarsB. How to Stop WarsC. Wars Can’t Make PeaceD.

One of the first people who tried to dig a tunnel under the Channel (英吉利海峡) was a French engineer called Albert Mathieu. His tunnel failed.In 1881, Colonel Beamont and Captain English from Britain also tried to dig a tunnel. Their tunnel went six kilometers into the Channel. Queen Victoria stopped them and said it was dangerous to connect with France. It was a very good tunnel, and it is still there today.The new tunnel (ready in 1993) is, in fact, three tunnels-two for trains and a “service tunnel” for fresh air to go in and for men who take care of the tunnels. The tunnels are fifty kilometers long, forty meters under water. Forty kilometers of tunnel are under the sea itself. They are the longest undersea tunnels in the world. Trains travel through the tunnels at 160 km/h. People drive their cars onto trains and the trains take them through the tunnel. Each train takes 1,500 people and there are trains every ten minutes.A special radio station called Channel Channel has started, because it is impossible to receive normal radio signals (信号) when you are under the sea. The station sends news to keep people up-to-date with the ‘world outside’ while they are in the tunnel.56. What was people’s dream about England and FranceA. Napoleon could reach England.B. Napoleon could dig a tunnel for them.C. Albert Mathieu would succeed.D. England and France could be joined together.57. Which is TRUE about the tunnel building in 1881A. The tunnel went six kilometers from France.B. Tunnel-building was a dangerous job.C. The old tunnel is still under the sea.D. The queen agreed to the digging plan.58. What’s the t raveling like in the tunnelA. Trains and cars can travel at 160 km/h.B. People can travel by trains through two tunnels.C. It takes ten minutes to go through the tunnel by train.D. People can drive their cars or take trains through the tunnel.59. Channel Channel has started to _________.A. tell people what the date isB. send news about people in the tunnelC. tell people news about the outside worldD. receive radio signals of the outside world60. The passage mainly tells us _________.A. the history of the Channel tunnelB. the importance of the Channel tunnelC. it’s hard work to dig an undersea tunnelD. the people who tried to dig the Channel tunnel第II卷(非选择题共45分)四、动词填空(共10空,计10分)阅读下面短文,用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空。

He knew his father could well afford it, so he told him that was all he wanted.Then on the morning of his graduation(毕业) , his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box. Surprised, the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible(圣经) with his name on it.

I learned cooking from my mother because she was really interested in teaching me how to cook. The main reason for this was because when my mother got married, she didn't know how to cook anything, not even an egg. My grandmother never allowed her to stay in the kitchen when she was cooking.My mother did not start to cook until she was twenty-five years old. In the beginning, it was very hard for her. Therefore, she had to take cooking classes to prepare(准备)our meals. After having that experience, she decided to teach me how to cook because she didn't want me to have the same experience.I remember when I was seven years old, I started to learn cooking from my mother. Sometimes we prepared the meals that my mother already knew how make, and sometimes we prepared meals from recipes. Thanks to that experience, now I don't need any help to cook a meal. I can cook for myself or for a group of people; it doesn't matter. I will do the same with my children because I don't want them to have the same experience as my mother.

My mom always found ways to make leftovers (剩余食物) taste good. I went to Ilan to learn about some of their special foods. As I was there, I learned about the food and the history of the area.I learned that they don‘t waste food, either, and they use leftovers!Many years ago, there was not enough food for everyone. People learned to cook and eat almost everything. They had to think of ways to make special dishes. One of these dishes is kao zha. It‘s mad e with leftovers like meat, soup, oil and fat.

But you get really angry every time you think of them. If you don‘t let this anger go, it can turn into bitterness (痛苦).Bitterness appears when we can‘t forgive (原谅) someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But instead of controlling the anger, we keep it deep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we‘re hurting that person by criticizing (指责) him or her often, but we‘re really only hurting ourselves.Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an angry person for very long.If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.● Accept itInstead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it.● Stop making excuses for itYou may feel you have a right to be angry. You may think you‘re right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life.● Forgive and forget itYou probably can‘t completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. You‘ll enjoy better health and peace of mind.66.
