One expert says that depressionis like cancer because it is “widespread, costly and deadly”. Depression hits one person in five around the world. Over any six-month period, between five to sevenpercent of the world's population will be suffering from a serious depression．A recent research shows that the more teenagers watch television, the morelikely they are to develop depression as young adults.The researchers used a nationwide long-term survey of teenage health to investigate(调查) the relationship between media(传播媒介) use and depression.They based their findings on more than four thousand teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 2000.As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of televisionor videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and one-half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.Seven years later, in 2007, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games of radio etc. But the study did find that everyextra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount of media use.The study didn’t explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.Last December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely tobe socially active, to read, to take part in religious services and to vote.1. The survey shows that of all the media uses.A. most teenagers prefer to listen to the radioB. teenagers enjoy watching TV very muchC. computer games are teenagers’ favouriteD. magazines are mentioned in the survey2.The result of the research seems to prove .。

It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.②People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems blurry (=unclear). Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted.③People who are far-sighted(远视) suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.④Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.⑤Having two good eyes is important for judging(判断) distances(距离). Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.16．We should look after our eyes well ________.A．only when we can see well B．only when we cannot see perfectly C．even though we can see well D．only when we know how important our eyes are17．When things far away seem unclear, one is probably ________.A．near-sighted B．far-sightedC．astigmatic D．suffering from cataracts18．Having two eyes instead of one is especially useful for ________.A．seeing at night B．seeing objects far awayC．looking over a wide area D．judging distances19．Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?A ．B ．C ．D ．Sports play an important role in teenagers’ li ves.

For example, young people with untidy bedrooms are usually very creative. They are good at subjects like English, art and even at math. That can be the result when children use their heads to think about how to solve a problem.This doesn’t mean that a bedroom should always be untidy. Cleaning up a bedroom once a month, for example, is usually enough and makes people use their imagination (想象力) more. Children who have untidy bedrooms often remember details.Children should clean their own rooms because this is part of their jobs but not always theparents’. Part of growing up is learning to care for yourself and be able to make your own decisions. These children often do better in life because they’ve learned how to spend free time.Also, sometimes children will have a surprise when they clean their rooms. They may get excited when they find ¥50 under the bed or find their gifts under the quilts.It’s important for children to improve their own personality (个性) and an untidy bedroom can be part of this.23．According to the writer, children with untidy rooms _________.A．are usually very lazy B．are usually very smartC．like to use their heads D．like to clean their rooms24．According to Paragraph 3, we can infer that children who often clean rooms _________.

The child knew he had to start on his journey (旅行) very soon. He asked God one more question, softly. “Oh God. if I am about to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”God touched the child on the shoulder and answered. “You angel’s name is not hard to remember.

It is passed from generation（一代）to generation only as the spoken word.Food, art and everything else about the city also has a flavor that can’t be found in the rest of China.

You want to jump in and save them but that might put you in danger. What do you do?Soon this won’t be your problem anymore because a robot swimmer called Swumanoid will be on-hand to help.Scientists from Japan created this robot to swim like an Olympic athlete. They mapped the swimmer’s body and how every part moves, so the robot could swim exactly as a human does.Swumanoid can swim the backstroke (仰泳) and the front crawl (自由泳) at a speed of 0.64 meters a second, which is a third of the human world record according to the Daily Mail (每日邮报).Motomu Nakashima, the leader of the study, hopes that robots like Swumanoid can act as lifesavers in the future, helping those in trouble.Besides saving lives, Swumanoid can also be used in swimming research. It can test water resistance (阻力) and work out how people swim. The information collected is expected to help scientists find ways to improve a swimmer's skills.Unlike human swimmers, robots don’t get tired from doing the same stroke (泳姿) again and again, so they do not slow down. Thus, they can collect information more correctly.But the robot is not yet ready to take the place of lifesavers by the pool. Scientists say there are still certain things that need to be improved, such as the motors and waterproofing (防水的) design.52．Swumanoid can swim exactly as a human does because _________.A．it was created by an Olympic swimmerB．it can follow the way swimmers moveC．it can swim the way real swimmers moveD．it can help people who are drowning53．Swumanoid can collect information more efficiently because ________.A．it can do many types of strokes B．it can swim as fast as world record-holders C．it won’t feel tired and never slows down D．it doesn’t feel water resistance54．How many uses for the robot swimmers are mentioned in the passage?A．One.

Germs are always in dirty water. When you look at dirty water under a microscope, youwill see them in it. So your parents will not let you drink dirty water. Germs are found not only in dirty water, they are also found in air and dust. If you cut yourfinger, and if some of the dust goes into the finger, it will become big and red, and you willhave much pain in it.

It is germs.”即是本题答案的出处。 九年级英语阅读理解精选题(二) If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you startusing them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people donot seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memoryin practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means thathe does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). Butif he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have bettermemories? This is because they cannot read or write them down in a little notebook. They haveto remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time beingexercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering. 1.The main reason for one’s poor memory is that _________. A.his father or mother may have a poor memory B.he does not use his arms or legs for some time C.his memory is not often used D.he can’t read or write 2.If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ______.

A.Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory. B.Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don’t give it enough chance forpractice. C.Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs. D.A good memory comes from more practice. 4.Some people can’t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because ______. A. they have saved much trouble B. they have saved much time to remember things C. they have to use their memories all the time D. they can’t write everything in a little notebook 5.The best title for this passage _________. A.Don’t Stop Using Your Arms Or Legs B.How To Have A Good Memory C.Strong Arms And Good Memory D.Learn From The People 九年级英语阅读理解精选题答案 1.C 答案就在“…he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.”中。 2.D “…when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.”一句是解题的依据。 3.A B、C、D三个选项的意思在文中都有明确的说明。 4.C 根据倒数第二段的论述，可知那些不会读和写的人只好去记诸如日期、名字、故事等之类的东西。他们的记忆力自然是始终能得到锻炼。 5.B 整篇文章都是围绕如何有一个好的记忆力来写的。结尾一段，点明主旨，也是本题的题眼。

一、阅读理解1. Storytelling has caught the human imagination for thousands of years. People everywhere have told stories to amuse(消遣), to teach, toremember, and just to pass the time. People started telling stories long before writing was invented. 1 But people all over the world still tell one another stories out loud. A person who can tell a good story nearly always finds listeners.Before people developed writing, storytelling was the most important way to pass along information. Anything a culture wanted to protect—its beliefs, its history, and its traditions—had to be told out loud. Each generation would tell the culture’s stories to the next. 2 Knowledge passed on in this method is called the spoken tradition. Even cultures that know how to write still pass along some information in this way.3 In other cultures only special storytellers were trusted to do this important job. A culture’s best storytellers had good memories. Theycould also make the stories very interesting, so people would listen and remember them. Sometimes people would sing the stories or tell them in the form of poems. 4However, stories told aloud change over time as different people tell them. A storyteller might change a story in order to make it better. Or a teller may simply not remember all the details of a story. Unlike written stories, the spoken tradition is not created by any one person. 5 Sometimes the stories are collected and written down long after they have been created.A．In this way the stories were passed along.B．In some cultures everyone would pass along the stories.C．Soon storytelling became very popular all over the world.D．Songs and poems can both make stories easier to remember.E．Instead, a whole culture helps shape the changing stories in history.F．The spoken tradition is created by good storytellers rather than listeners.G．Today stories are also written down in books and acted out in movies, TV shows, and plays.2. One day, while my friend and I were traveling through Germany, we were very hungry but we didn’t have a lot of money. 1 I chosesome cookies and went to the front counter to pay. Near the counter I saw some packaged (包装好的) cookies in a large box. 2 I decided to take them instead so that we could save money.3 We found a quiet place under a tree and we ate our sandwiches first, and then the cookies. We thought they were great.“Let’s get these again,” I said. “ 4 ”My friend can read some German, but I can’t, so I gave her the package in order that she could look for the brand (品牌) name. 5“Why are you laughing?” I asked.“Because they’re dog biscuits!” she said.A．We left the store and looked for a place where we could eat.B．She looked at it and then started to laugh.C．We decided to stop at a small store to get some food.D．They’re cheap and they really taste good.E．More and more people will go there.F．She liked Germany very much.G．They looked good and were a lot cheaper than the ones I had in my hand.文章大意：本文主要介绍了一位中学生发明的环保垃圾袋，介绍了发明它的起因，它的用处等。

中考备考---阅读理解专项练习（10篇）AIn the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts （主人）and the worst guests in the world. They're not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is much different than in some western counties, it appears they are not nice guests. And western guests sometimes look rude （粗鲁的）in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife's mother'a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker,I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host,she must not do that. In most North America homes,if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask,“Is it OK if I smoke？”But, don't be surprised if they say,“No, you can't smoke.”In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they don't allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your home, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.In China, you probably won't need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.1.Many foreigners think that Chinese hosts are the ______ in the world．A. bestB. worstC. most naturalD. most difficult2.When a western guest visits a Chinese family，he often ______ ．A. buys some fruitB. feels like a godC. wants some giftsD. takes a cup of tea3.If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house，what will he probably say？______A. It's OK if you smoke here.B. Let's smoke together.C. Sorry，you can't smoke here.D. Smoking is a bad habit.4.What is the meaning of the underlined phrase“adapt to”in the passage？______A. think back toB. get used toC. look forward toD. keep close to5.What is the main idea of this passage______A. Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B. Hosts must do things in the guest's way.C. Western hosts are always nice to guests.D. People should understand cultural differences.BThe Beets were a new couple (夫妇). The things in their rooms, such as the television, the computer, the fridge, furniture and so on, were all left by their parents. They only paid some money for their food and clothes. But they tried their best to save money. If they had something important to tell their friends, they always visited them instead of calling them.One day, it was a quarter past nine. Mr. Beet didn’t come back. His wife was a little worried. The supper was cold and she had waited for two hours. She was sitting by the table in the dark room.Suddenly the woman heard someone coming upstairs. It was her husband’s step. She hurried to open the door. In the dark she could hear his deep breathing(呼吸). As soon as he sat down, she turned on the light and found he looked very tired.“Why do you come back so late, dear?” asked the woman. “Haven’t you caught a bus?”“Yes, but I didn’t take it.”“ Why not?”“I ran after it so that I saved two dollars this evening.”“That’s great!” the woman said happily. “Run after a taxi next time and you’ll save both more time and money.”6.The supper was ready at .A. 6:15B. 6: 30C. 6:45D. 7:157.Mrs. Beet sat in the dark because .A. she wanted to save money.B. she didn’t like the bright light.C. she was afraid to be seen.D. she wanted to have a good rest.8.Mr. Beet went back .A. by taxiB. by busC. on footD. by bike9.When Mr. Beet got home that evening, .A. his wife was angry with himB. he was very tiredC. he was too hungry to say a wordD. his wife felt sorry10.Mrs. Beet hoped .A. her husband went home by taxi the next time.B. her husband could keep on doing exercise.C. her husband could be stronger and stronger.D. her husband could save more money and time.CWhen your dream is to become a footballer, nothing should get in your way—even if you have no feet.Gabriel Muniz, an 11-year-old Brazil kid, was born without feet. Although his family thought he would have serious difficulties living a normal life, he started walking before he was one year old. His mother would go after him, expecting him to keep falling, but he never fell. It took him a while to make the jump from walking to playing football, but he did make it. And, in fact, there's nothing he loves more than playing football. In his school, the skillful youngster(年轻人) is not only the best player in his school team but also the captain of his gym team.He knows that his disability means he'll never be able to play for a professional(专业的) football team. So Gabriel is hoping that football will one day become a Paralympics (残疾人奥运会的) sport. He proved to everyone there he could go head to head with any other boy. Watching him play is unbelievable. He's fast and he’s got a big bag of tricks—he's very skilled and he does everything he can to copy his hero, Messi so much that he is invited to go to Spain to meet his hero Messi and show his talent in the Barcelona Football Club.His coach says he is proving the disability only exists(存在) inside our heads and he is challenging(挑战) the social norms.11.What's wrong with Gabriel Muniz?A.

北京汇文中学初三英语阅读理解专项训练（仔细审题，你会成功！）AIt is very important to be able to control yourself. Losing control may bring things that would never want to see. We can learn something from the following story. Once a boy often made trouble. His mother gave him many nails （钉子）. She told him to hammer （锤，钉） one in the garden fence （栅栏）, every time he lost his patience （耐心） and fought with someone. The first day he hammered 27 nails. In the following weeks he learned how to control himself better and the number of the nails he hammered became smaller and smaller.
