一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷
1．阅读理解
Scrub, the pet cat of Jennifer's, was found! It got lost five years ago. Jennifer looked for it everywhere but failed each time. She thought Scrub would never come back. But one day she got a call from an animal shelter(庇护所) and was told they had found Scrub!
How did they know Scrub belonged to Jennifer? How did they know Jennifer's phone number? All the information was available because of the microchip, a very small computer chip(薄片). It was placed under Scrub's skin many years earlier.
The microchip is usually placed under the skin of an animal's shoulder to keep its ID number. Once the chip is in place, the pet does not feel it anymore. When lost pets are brought to animal shelters, people there use a special tool to look for the microchip and read the ID number on it, then they'll call the microchip company to match the number to the information of the pet's owner. This is how the shelter was able to tell Jennifer that they had found Scrub.
Microchips have helped thousands of owners get their lost pets back. In New York, a dog named Roxy was missing for months. Then a woman found her on a busy street in New Jersey. No one knows how the dog got to a different state. However, thanks to her microchip, Roxy was soon returned to her grateful owner.
In 2008, a couple got their cat George back after he had disappeared 13 years earlier! When George got lost, the couple tried everything to find him. They visited animal shelters every day for six months, made posters and even offered a $500 reward(酬金). As years went by, they thought George would never be back till they got the call from an animal shelter. Without the microchip, the cat would never be able to come home again.
Microchips can not only work for a pet's whole life but help lost pets no matter how far they've been away from home. This is why microchips may be just the thing to help bring missing pets back home.

2．根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In
fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives( 观点 ) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.
With this belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people's writing can one discover what works, what doesn't and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.
Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read books. Reading reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.
（1）What can be inferred about the author as a child?
A. He never watched TV.
B. He found reading unbelievable.
C. He considered reading part of his life.
D. He read what he had to.
（2）The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “________”.
A. a belief
B. a way of writing
C. a sound quality
D. a world to write about （3）What effect does reading have on the author?
A. It opens up a wider world for him.
B. It helps him to realize his dream.
C. It makes his college life more interesting.
D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.（4）Which of the following can be the best title of this text?
A. How do I read?
B. What do I read?
C. Why do I read?
D. When do I read?
【答案】（1）C
（2）B
（3）A
（4）C
【解析】【分析】作者从小的时候就非常喜欢阅读，这个习惯也让他有了成为一名作家的想法。而这一梦想反过来又更加督促他去更多的阅读，因为这样他才能表达自己的思想。作者觉得阅读对于他来说是很重要的。
（1）推理判断题。根据短文第一段中I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing可知，作者从小生活在一个很少开电视，却有很多书的家庭里，他童年的大多数时候都是在读书中度过的，他觉得读书就像呼吸一样的自然。由此可知，作者觉得读书是他生活的一部分。故应选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据短文中Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with.可知，作者想要成为一名作家，他觉得每个作家都是以阅读开始的，这样他才能找到正确的方式去表达自己的想法。因此这里的voice指的就是一个作家的写作方式。故应选B。
（3）推理判断题。根据短文的最后一段Reading reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime可知，阅读对于作者来说是非常重要的，它可带着作者穿过海洋，沿着丝绸之路，去体验令人激动的经历，这些经历可能在作者的一生中不会拥有的。因此选项中A选项最符合文意，阅读给作者打开了更广阔的世界。故选A
（4）主旨大意题。这篇短文介绍的是作者从小的时候开始就非常喜欢阅读，这个爱好还让作者想要成为一名作家，而这个梦想反过来又让作者读得更多，到大学的时候，作者意识到了阅读是多么的重要。因此文章的主题是作者为什么阅读，不是怎样读、读什么或什么时候读。故应选C。
【点评】这篇短文介绍了作者为什么喜欢阅读，整篇短文的内容不是很难理解，但是后面的题目需要学生对文章的主题有深层次的理解才能做出来因此理解文章的主题、了解作者的写作意图是做题的关键。例如第2小题，划线的这个单词voice本意是声音，但是在文章里，它肯定不是这个意思。根据这一段的意思可知，作者因为喜欢阅读而有了一个梦想，就是成为作家。而想要成为作家，要去表达自己的思想，就需要更多的去阅读，这样他才能找到自己的写作方式。因此这里的voice不是说出来的声音，而是作家笔下写出来的、能表达自己思想的声音，也就是作家的写作方式，因此应选B。

Cinyee Chiu, an artist from Taiwan, is always happy to try something new. Her amazing works won lots of prizes. Among them, "24 Solar Terms(节气)" is the most popular.
Ancient Chinese divided a year into 24 parts according to the changes of the weather. It's the 24 solar terms. But not everyone knows them well. Cinyee Chiu put the 24 solar terns in pictures to help people understand them better.

White Dew falls on about Sept. 8. It shows the beginning of the cool autumn. There are colorful leaves and cooler nights at this time of year. As the temperature falls, white dew(露珠) is often seen on the grass and trees at night. For White Dew, Cinyee chose a raccoon—a small animal with thick hair.

A couple of sparrows(麻雀) lived happily in a huge tree in a jungle. The female sparrow had laid her eggs and they were expecting their babies soon.
One day, an elephant was unable to tolerate the heat of the summer sun. He destroyed all trees, including the tree where the sparrows lived.
The sparrows managed to escape by flying away, but they lost their babies. The eggs fell down to the ground and broke into pieces. They cried loudly and decided to kill the elephant.

He continued, "When the thirsty elephant hears me, he will think there is a pond or lake nearby and follow my voice. And when he does so, he will fall into the pit and die."
The others agreed to the frog's plan. Everyone did their tasks perfectly. Finally, the elephant fell into the pit and died.
