BThink of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass.

One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬)elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant。
One time,when I was serving food toa middle-aged couple,the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that,her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife。

中考英语阅读理解专项训练(含答案)“Why do I live? Why do I wish for anything, or do anything? Is there anything in my life that will not be destroyed by my death?” Like Leo Tolstoy, the famous Russian writer, many people ask these difficult questions. Tolstoy spent his whole life trying to answer these difficult questions.As a young man, he thought people could achieve perfection if they tried hard enough, so he worked very hard to be the best in everything. He thought that he would find meaning and truth in success.In the 1850s, Tolstoy wrote his first stories. He wrote about his life in the army. He also told stories about his childhood. These works were published, and Tolstoy became a well-known writer.He earned the respect he always wanted. Many rich and smart men met and talked with Tolstoy. Some of them were writers like him. They talked a lot about faith (信仰) and the meaning of life, but soon Tolstoy recognized that these men were not perfect. Now he knew they could not answer his questions about faith.So, in the 1860s, Tolstoy tried a different way to find the meaning of life. He opened a school for the children of his serfs—the people who worked on his land. These workers were very poor. He wanted to help them because he thought they were more honest than the rich people he knew.Tolstoy learned a lot from his workers. He understood how they worked hard to support their families. He began to believe that marriage and family would give his life meaning. So in 1862, Leo Tolstoy married a young woman named Sonya Behrs.The next 15 years were the best years of Tolstoy’s life. It was during this time that he wrote his most famous books-War and Peace and Anna Karenina. Many experts say that War and Peace is one of the greatest books ever written. In these books, Tolstoy believed humans should live a simple life and take care of their families. Tolstoy thought this would satisfy him and bring him happiness.Leo Tolstoy is still a very respected writer today.

So he had to find someone to rule the country.The other day, the king had an idea. He asked his servants to travel to every part of the country and give every person a single orchid seed. He then announced that the person who grew the most beautiful orchid would take his throne.Everyone in the country then got their own seed. One young man named David was especially excited about the news because he had experience in growing flowers himself.David planted his seed in a pot and put it in place where there was a lot of sunlight. He watched it carefully every day, but as hard as he tried, his flower simply would not grow.Finally, it was time for everyone to give their flowers to the king. David took his empty pot to the palace. “Your Majesty, I am sorry to say that I could not grow an orchid, but I hope you can see that I tried my best,” he said.The king was moved by David’s honesty.

These programmes give us a good look into the lives of different people in Britain. Also they are a very cheap way to make programmes. Here are some of them.Strictly Come DancingIn the show some famous people learn to dance with a professional dancer. Four professional dance experts give them scores and comments (评论) about their dances. After that, the public vote(投票) for their favourite couple. The two least favourite have to dance again and the judges decide who stays in the competition and who leaves. This show is very popular with people of all ages in the UK.Come Dine With MeEach week four people prepare dinner in their home for the other players. Each player then gives the cook a grade out of 10 for the food. The winner gets £1,000. Sometimes the food is terrible and the players are very rude to each other.World’s Strictest ParentsBadly behaved British teens are sent abroad to live with a super strict family for a week. The teenagers have to follow the rules of their host family and go to the local school. After seven days the teenagers return home and their parents tell us whether their behaviour is better or not.There are often a lot of cries and shouts in this show, but it can be worth watching too. 11.In which programme do the public vote for their favourite couple?A.World’s Strictest Parents.B.Don’t Tell the Bride.C.Strictly Come Dancing.D.Come Dine With Me.12.What does the underlined word “Dine” mean?A.To dive.B.To eat.C.To have a trip.D.To have a show. 13.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.The dance experts give the dancers scores and comments.B.Not all the food is delicious in Come Dine With Me.C.The winner may get some money in Come Dine With Me.D.Badly behaved teens will stay in the host family for one year.14.What do teenagers have to follow in their host family?A.The rules.B.The prizes.C.The cities.D.The rooms. 15.What does the passage mainly about?A.To tell us how famous these TV programmes are.B.To introduce some popular programmes in Reality TV.C.To invite students to World’s Strictest Parents.D.To invite people to take part in these programmes.I like writing. I like meeting people. I couldn’t keep a secret if you told me and I like discovering new things and telling everyone about them. So I became a journalist(记者).Sounds simple and easy, right? But the life of a journalist is more exciting and much harder than that. It can come with pain and frustration (挫折).Once I ran around in a dark, dangerous-looking street in the snow. I was trying to find a woman who (my editor had told me) “woke in the night to find water pouring on her head”. Somehow I found her. I took photos. I interviewed her, the building owner and the firemen. I wrote the story…Then I opened the paper to find it at the back, with no name on it, only 100 words long. Strangely, though, it made me want to keep going. If you succeed, the rewards of journalism are truly great.I once wrote about an old people’s home. People there, including a 90-year-old blind man, were living in rooms that were full of fleas (跳蚤). They were told to do their own repairs. A week after the story was published, people there phoned me, full of joy. The managers had said sorry to them and promised to change their ways.Journalism can be dangerous and boring, with long and changing work hours. And the pay (at least in the UK) is terrible. But it’s also one of the most exciting, rewarding jobs. For me, there is no better career than making a difference—and telling the world about it.16.According to the writer, what can’t she do being a journalist?A.Writing different kinds of stories.B.Meeting different people. C.Discovering new things.D.Staying away from pain and frustration. 17.According to the third paragraph, how might the writer feel when she saw her story in the paper?A.Disappointed.B.Happy.C.Scared.D.Encouraged. 18.What does the underlined word “rewards” mean in Paragraph 3?A.回报B.惩罚C.编辑D.帮助19.What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?A.How a journalist writes a good story.B.A journalist can sometimes help others and bring about changes in people’s lives.C.A journalist works long hours.D.It’s necessary for a journalist to care more about the poor.20.What can we learn from the article?A.Working in journalism is easy.B.Journalists are usually well-paid.C.The writer loves her job as a journalist.D.The writer encourages people to work in journalism.Close your eyes and picture a scientist. Does an image of a man show up in your mind?It is hard to ignore that even in the 21st century, the “scientist equals male” stereotype(成见) is still there. In the science world, women’s voices are often unheard.According to UNESCO, only 35 percent of global STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) students in higher education are women. In pursuing science and technology careers, women are more likely to be treated unfairly because of their motherhood and skin color, noted Teen V ogue.In November, at the 4th World Laureates Forum(世界顶尖科学家论坛) held in Shanghai, some of the world’s top female scientists announced an initiative(倡议), encouraging institutions around the world to promote gender equality(性别平等) in STEM areas.“Role models of women scientists need to be better represented on important international stages and allow their voices to be heard as a way to encourage youths,” Lenore Blum, a female scientist from the US, said at the forum.In December, Talk With Lu Jian, a Chinese TV show, launched a series of programs under the title of She Power in Tech. The show interviewed Chinese female scientists, includinggeneticist(遗传学家) Fu Qiaomei at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lü Zhi, a professor of life sciences at Peking University, and Rong Yi, a chief designer of the Long March 2F rocket.“These female scientists share a strong passion for science,” said Lu Jian, the TV show’s host. “They are making a pathway(通道) for the next women scientists.”Actions should also be taken to create a better environment for women working in the field ofscience and technology, noted Science and Technology Daily. For example, they should be given more resources, join in decision-making and gain support for their research during maternity(生育).21.According to UNESCO, the number of women who study STEM is ________ the number of men.A.equal to B.far more than C.much less than D.close to 22.Lenore Blum thinks that ________.A.more female scientists should find different jobs B.women scientists are good role models C.scientists should be known by more people D.women are good at studying science 23.She Power in Tech is a program that ________.A.shares stories of women scientists B.teaches basic scientific knowledge C.picks up future women scientists D.spreads the latest scientific developments 24.What problems are female scientists facing now?a. Having fewer resources than male scientists.b. Bearing no hardships compared with males.c. Lacking opportunities to make decisions.d. Being unable to work while having a baby. A.abc B.abd C.acd D.bcdChina’s Twenty-four Solar Terms is considered to be the country’s fifth great invention. It has been added to UNESCO’s List of Intangible Cultural Heritage (联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录).The Twenty-four Solar Terms was invented by ancient Chinese. At that time, most people were farmers. They had to learn about the movement of the sun in a year and do the farming accordingly. The Twenty-four Solar Terms shows the changes of climate, seasons and some biological phenomena (生物现象).

Start of Spring, Start of Summer, Start of Autumn and Start of Winter are openings of the four seasons. Awakening of Insects is between arch 5th and March 6th. During this period, many living things come out after a long winter of silence.The Twenty-four Solar Terms shows ancient Chinese people’s wisdom. Now it is added toUNESCO’s heritage list. This means that it is accepted and will be accepted by more and more people in the world.25.Why did ancient Chinese invent the Twenty-four Solar Terms?A.Because they wanted to tell the differences of four seasons.B.Because they wanted to learn something about the sun.C.Because they wanted to help them do the farming.D.Because most of them were farmers.26.When is Rain Water?A.It is between February 18th and March 20th.B.It is between February 18th and February 20th.C.It is between March 5th and March 6th.D.It is between March 18th and March 20th.27.What happens when Awakening of Insects comes?A.Summer begins.B.The temperature goes down.C.There will be more and more snow.D.The snake comes out after a long winter sleep.28.How many solar terms are mentioned in the article?A.Two solar terms are mentioned.B.Four solar terms are mentioned.C.Five solar terms are mentioned.D.Six solar terms are mentioned. 29.According to the passage, which of the following is Not True?A.The Twenty-four Solar Terms shows that ancient Chinese people were wise.B.The Twenty-four Solar Terms is one of the four great inventions.C.The Twenty-four Solar Terms is added to UNESCO’s heritage list.D.The Twenty-four Solar Terms is accepted in the world.Movie-making factories are called studios. Like all other businesses, they have to follow the rules of good business. There is a person, called “the top man”, running the studio. He is usually someone with a powerful personality. His power of character is necessary so that the “boss” can deal with famous stars and rich investors(投资者). Some movie stars can only contract(签合同) with one studio. They cannot work for another. Big studios like Columbia, Fox,Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer are the most important movie-making companies in Hollywood.Making a film takes a long time and is very hard work. Writing the story for the film needs many weeks. Shooting a film often takes at least six months. Actors and cameramen work from very early in the morning until late at night. Each scene has to be acted and reacted, filmed and refilmed, until it is just right. Sometimes the same scene has to be acted many times.The film studio is like a large factory, and the indoor stages are very big indeed. Scenery of all kinds is made in the studio. Churches, houses, castles, and forest are all built of wood and cardboard(纸板盒). Several hundred people work together to make one film. Some of these people are actors and actresses. The director of the film, however, is the most important person in a film studio.

(英语)中考英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)一、阅读理解1.阅读理解Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!(1)According to the passage who have a communication problem?A. parents and other peopleB. only school kids and their parentsC. teachers and their studentsD. parents and children of all ages(2)How many pieces of advice does the writer give us to bridge the generation gap?A. 5.B. 4.C. 3.D. 2.(3)The underlined word "bridge" in the passage means "___________".A. 建立B. 消除C. 通过D. 到达(4)If the values of your parents are different from those of yours, you'd better ___________.A. argue with themB. keep away from themC. agree with them all the timeD. tell your parents what you care about(5)The best title for the passage is ___________.A.

No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could break the rope at any time, but for sonic reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why the animals just stood there and didn't try to get away. "Well," the trainer said, "when they were very young and much smaller, we used the same rope to keep them from running away. At that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break tile rope. They believe it can still hold them, so they never try to break free." The man was surprised. These animals could break flee whenever they wanted, but because they believed they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were. How many of us go through life like the elephants-holding onto the belief that we cannot do something simply because we failed at it once before? Failure is a part of learning. If we failed once, it doesn't mean we can never succeed. If we try again and again, maybe we will succeed one day. So don't be afraid of failure and keep on trying.

2.阅读理解 The following are some tips for becoming a successful businessman by Michael Bloomberg. They are based on his experience of building a company from the ground up, leading New York City as mayor(市长), and so on. Take Risks Life is too short to spend your time avoiding failure. In 1981, at the age of 39, I lost my job. The next day I took a big risk and began my own company. In 2001, when I was debating whether to run for mayor, most people advised me not to do it. But one person said, “If you can imagine yourself giving a concession(败选)speech, then why not go for it?” That was the best advice I received, and I followed it. In order to succeed, you must first be willing to fail— and you must have the courage to go for it anyway. Make your own luck Luck plays a part in success. The harder you work, the luckier you get. Whatever you choose to do, even if it's not the job of your dreams, always work hard at it. Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night. Hard work creates chances. Never stop learning The most powerful word in English language is “why”. There is nothing so powerful as an open, inquiring mind(探究精神). Whatever field you choose for starting a business — be a lifelong student. Give back You are responsible for your success and failure, but you only succeed if you share the reward with others. My first donation was a $ 5 check to my alma mater (母校) . And while the checks(支票)may be bigger today, they come with the same spirit. You don't have to be wealthy to give back. You can give back by giving your time and talents. (1)In this passage, Michael Bloomberg is the name of a . A. newspaper B. place C. company D. person (2)What did the writer do at the age of 59? A. Lost his job. B. Ran for mayor. C. Built a company. D. Became a teacher. (3)From the passage, we can infer that the writer . A. is a young mayor B. seldom cares about others C. is lucky all the time D. is a hard-working man (4)Which of the following isn't mentioned in the tips? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. It's never too old to learn. C. Money is everything. D. Luck comes from hard work.
